171. Chapter 171 The harem dispute involves courtiers

Nangong Ao entered the study room angrily. Seeing that the situation was not good, Qinhua followed him into the study room.

Nangong Ao, who had his hands behind his back, clenched his fists tightly. Qinhua, who was standing behind him, saw that the joints of his clenched fists were glowing with a white light, like the biting cold light on a sharp blade. She really couldn't figure it out.

Why did a person who was so happy when he went out come back half angry after walking around for so long?

Seeing this, Qinhua stepped forward and asked Nangong Ao, "Your Majesty, which careless servant are you angry with?

Take care of your body and bones, it's not worth getting angry with these slaves." Qinhua comforted Nangong Ao.

Nangong Ao stood there, his body tensed and filled with anger. Thinking of all the people in the palace who were plotting against him, he wished he could catch all those blind people one by one right now.

.

Nangong Ao stood there for a long time. It was so long that Qinhua thought that Nangong Ao had been overstimulated and lost his voice. Then she heard Nangong Ao's hoarse voice, "Qinhua, guess who I just met in the garden?"

When Qinhua heard Nangong Ao's words, she thought carefully in her mind, who made the emperor so angry? He didn't vent his anger on the person who made him angry. Instead, he was sulking here. Who has such great ability?

Apart from the Empress Dowager and the Empress who is pregnant with a dragon heir, the only other person is Concubine Hui.

Qinhua chose one of the people she thought of and said, "Is it Concubine Hui?"

Qinhua saw Nangong Ao shrinking nervously after hearing her answer. At this moment, Qinhua knew that it was Concubine Hui who was inseparable.

"Your Majesty, why did Concubine Hui make you angry?" Qinhua thought that Concubine Hui had never been to Yangxin Hall since she fell ill. The emperor went out for a walk and came back and said that Concubine Hui made him angry.

I met Concubine Hui outside.

While Qinhua was speculating, Nangong Ao sighed heavily and said, "Qinhua, when you looked at the roster, did you find anything wrong?"

Qinhua heard Nangong Ao ask about the roster for embroidery selection. She thought about it in her mind for a long time and found nothing wrong, so she asked with doubts, "Is there anything wrong with the roster? I didn't notice it!"

"I just met Liu Mengling, one of the two concubines who was just canonized, in the garden. She is actually the daughter of Liu Gu, Minister of Industry?" Nangong Ao said angrily.

Qinhua became even more confused after hearing this. Is there anything wrong with Liu Guibin being the daughter of the Minister of Industry?

Seeing Qinhua's confused look, Nangong Ao added, "Look at the concubines in this harem. Which one of them has a family background that is not high-ranking and powerful? Am I marrying a wife or seeking a powerful person?" Nangong Ao kept talking more and more.

The angrier he gets.

Qinhua heard the reason why Ye Wange was angry, "Your Majesty, are you angry that all the masters in the harem are the daughters of high-ranking officials?"

Nangong Ao nodded after hearing this. The harem was filled with the daughters of these high-ranking officials and powerful people. There were inextricably linked relationships between these people, forming a tight network of relationships.

"Is the emperor afraid that if something happens, these people will not only protect each other, but also fight for their own interests and bring chaos to the court?" Qinhua guessed.

Qinhua revealed Nangong Ao's thoughts with one word, and Nangong Ao said helplessly, "Qinhua, the Queen and Concubine Hui seem to be like sisters on the surface, but in fact they have been fighting to the death secretly for a long time!"

Nangong Ao said sadly.

Qinhua lowered her eyes and thought for a moment before replying, "Your Majesty, it is said that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, not to mention that there are so many tigers and wolves in this harem who are deeply interested in becoming the king. It is normal for the Queen and Concubine Hui to be at odds with each other.

,

As the saying goes, everyone in this world has selfish motives." Qinhua felt that Nangong Ao's idea that all the women in the harem were as intimate as her own sisters was too idealistic and simply unrealistic.

"Yes! They all have selfish motives!" Nangong Ao said quietly.

After a while, Nangong Ao said again, "As long as the fights in the harem don't hurt innocent people and don't involve excessive conspiracy theories, I will turn a blind eye or close a blind eye. But if there is a trick between them,

If it’s bad, I will never tolerate it.”

"Your Majesty, did you discover something?" Qinhua asked after hearing Nangong Ao's words.

Nangong Ao shook his head, "Nothing has been found so far?" He changed the topic and said, "But I know that Prime Minister Ye and Doctor Shen were fighting to the death because of the fight for the position of the Queen.

Discredit the other party.

If those noble and powerful ministers are fighting among themselves for the power position of the daughter in the palace, do you think there will be peace in the court?" Nangong Ao was very worried about such a thing happening, and what should be done if such a thing really happened.

How to deal with it!

Seeing that Nangong Ao was so worried, Qinhua thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, whether it is in the court or between the palaces in the harem, there is a balance of power."

Qinhua's words made Nangong Ao suddenly realize that the harem is just like the court. As long as the power is equal, there will be no big problems. Just like Ye Changyu and Shen Liang, two equally equal courtiers, fought like this.

After so many years, it’s not hard to tell the winner. Standing here safe and sound!

The Queen and Concubine Hui are two equally matched people in the harem. As long as there is not a big disparity in power between these two people, no major tragedy will happen.

Nangong Ao thought of this matter too simply, always considering that their strengths were equal. If the two people restrained each other and supervised each other, nothing would happen. He underestimated the Queen and Concubine Hui too much.

The Queen and Concubine Hui have been fighting to the death for a long time. Nangong Ao has not yet discovered the conspiracy between the two, and regards the mutual dissatisfaction between the two as a small quarrel.

Ye Wange sat at the table, watching Xiaodie go about embroidering, and she said, "You embroider this and that for me all day long, you can keep this Supa for yourself!"

Xiaodie looked at the flower of wealth she had embroidered and said quickly, "How dare I take a Supa with such a pattern?"

Ye Wange glanced at it and said, "Isn't it just a picture of flowers blooming and wealth? Is there anything that can't be used? Doesn't the law of the Northern Tang Dynasty not allow slaves to live a wealthy life?"

Xiaodie thought about it seriously and said, "I have never heard of such a law."

"That's it, you can use it if I say you can." Ye Wange said, thinking that Xiaodie is also in her prime of life and loves beauty, so she should give this slave some reward, so she added, "Before the festival, you should do the same

Two new clothes as a reward."

After hearing this, Xiaodie was so happy that she spoke with enthusiasm, "Queen, you are so kind to your slaves.

This slave must swear allegiance to the queen to the death."

"Bah, bah, bah!" Ye Wange immediately spat three times after hearing this, spitting out the unfavorable words Xiaodie said.

"Just follow my method and vomit three times to get rid of the bad luck.

You can never say these unfavorable words in the future, the good days are still to come, what are you talking about, die, die?" Ye Wange scolded.

"Yes, this slave has a stupid mouth and deserves a beating." After saying that, he slapped his own mouth a few times.

"Okay!" Ye Wange said angrily when she saw Xiaodie really fanning her lips.

Xiaodie stopped and looked at Ye Wange and giggled twice.

The master and the servant were chatting here, and Xiao Zhi hurried in. When he ran in front of Ye Wange so fast, he almost lost his footing and rushed to the stove.

Before Ye Wange could speak, Xiaodie said, "Xiao Zhi, please take it easy in the future. You are so hairy every day, running around like a dog, without even looking at where this place is..."

Xiao Zhizi was used to being lectured by Xiaodie and didn't take Xiaodie's words to heart at all, so Xiaodie was interrupted by him before he finished speaking, "Queen, I just got some news. I heard that the emperor went for a walk in the garden.

I have such a bad temper."

Xiaodie snorted disdainfully and said, "What kind of useful news is this? Isn't it normal for the emperor to get angry?"

When Xiao Zhi heard Xiao Die's interruption, he glared at Xiao Die fiercely and said, "Don't interrupt." Xiao Die shut her mouth immediately due to his fierceness. Although Xiao Zhi was usually laughing and joking like a girl, once

When you lose your temper, you really have the strength of a man.

"The emperor met the newly consecrated concubine Liu Mengling in the garden.

I heard that after the emperor found out that Liu Guibin was the daughter of Liu Gu, Minister of Industry, he became so angry that he turned around and left." Xiao Zhizi told Ye Wange the news he had just found out.

Ye Wange was surprised when he heard this, "Oh! Why is the emperor angry with Liu Guifei?"

After hearing this, Xiao Zhizi replied, "I heard that the emperor is not angry with Liu Gui's concubines, but that the masters in the harem are all the daughters of high-ranking officials and powerful people, and each of them has a profound background."

"Oh." Ye Wange thought that the women in the harem all had strong backgrounds to support them, and it was really not a good thing. If something happened, the Zhulian Nine Clan would move against the courtiers, and vice versa.

Those courtiers were guilty of killing the noble concubines of the Nine Clans and had to move them into the harem. Thinking about this would really give Nangong Ao a headache.

There were fights among the harems, and there were fights among the courtiers who had daughters in the harem. Then the Northern Tang Dynasty lived in the battles between the children's personal affairs all day long, and there was no need to talk about the way to govern the country!

The more Ye Wange thought about it, the more she wanted to laugh. Shen Ruhui's power check revealed her own ambition in front of Nangong Ao. This was really self-inflicted!

When Ye Wange thought that Nangong Ao was very dissatisfied with the result of this selection of embroidery girls, she became more and more happy and felt that God was helping her.

God will help those who get it, but they will be misfortunes if they lose their way. Shen Ruhui has committed too many sins in the end, and even God will not help Shen Ruhui. Ye Wange takes pleasure in his misfortune.

Ye Wange was feeling happy when Xiao Yuanzi came in and reported that Prime Minister Ye was here. Ye Wange immediately suppressed the smile on her lips and said, "Please come quickly."
