The wooden window on the north side that Zhen had opened earlier let in the wind, causing the nearby curtains to flutter and fall.
The sound of rain is also very obvious. It is not loud, but it covers everything, which makes it easier to talk. Just like in a crowded wine shop, the "buzzing" of people is noisy, but it is not easy to be heard, so it is suitable for conversation.
If you find it noisy, just sit closer.
Mrs. Zhen then sat very close to Mrs. Guo and spoke very quietly, "In the name of offering sacrifices, you will return to your uncle (Guo Li)'s house. You will leave the palace in the morning and return to the palace in the afternoon."
She thought for a while and then said, "I said that I have a relative who is also a widow, but he cares about his reputation. I asked Qin Zhongming to help me and repay my kindness. We first arranged a villa near the mansion of my adoptive father (Guo Li).
That day I went to the other courtyard first, met Qin Zhongming, and hid in the courtyard.
When you are done offering sacrifices, your adoptive father will host a banquet in honor of you. After you drank, you pretended to be dizzy due to excessive alcohol, and it was inconvenient to stay in the courtyard of your uncle's house, so you went to a nearby palace to rest for a while, and took a nap. I then
Take Qin Zhongming into the bedroom through the back door to meet you."
Mrs. Guo did not interrupt her for the time being. The details of this plan seemed imperfect, but the omissions in what Ms. Zhen suddenly came up with were excusable. She could continue to consider and plan carefully in the future.
Mrs. Zhen frowned and thought for a moment, then she continued: "We don't need to let Qin Zhongming know who you are. We first put down the curtain on the couch. Then you just like calling the imperial doctor to diagnose your pulse and only exposing your wrist, covered it with a curtain.
Stay on one side of the couch, then lean over and lean out the back half of your body. After Qin Zhongming came, I supervised and taught him how to do it."
Guo finally said: "What to do next?"
Zhen's expression was a little complicated, as if she was a little angry and said: "I asked him to put his face up first." She then began to describe what to do.
Guo couldn't help but remind her: "Speak slowly and carefully."
Mrs. Zhen observed Mrs. Guo's expression for a moment, curled her lips and said: "There are no outsiders, so stop pretending. I don't believe that you have been in the palace for so long and haven't done anything." Mrs. Guo lowered his eyes and hesitated to hold his hand.
Gently stretched towards the collar and slowly penetrated into the robe. Ms. Zhen continued to describe beside her. Now she spoke in great detail, as if it really happened.
I have to say that Ms. Zhen is very thoughtful, and she can describe the process in a way that is different from the description she just recalled. Ms. Zhen also understands that Mr. Guo’s temperament is different from hers, so the descriptions of feelings and reactions are also different.
But the description of Qin Liang was not very different from the previous statement. Zhen repeated what his hands were like, what his arms were like, a very light goatee, etc., and his appearance everywhere, but
Mr. Guo did not mind Mr. Zhen’s verbosity.
After a while, Mrs. Guo let out a long breath. Mrs. Zhen stopped talking when she saw this, then took out a handkerchief from her bag and handed it over silently. Mrs. Guo also reached out to catch it. Mrs. Zhen raised her eyebrows.
He lifted his chin and frowned, "Doesn't it hurt if you hold her like this?" Guo rolled her eyes at her, turned her face slightly to one side, and did not answer the question.
Mrs. Guo was silent for a while and then said, "It's just talk. Do you think we really dare to do that?"
However, hearing what Zhen said was indeed very exciting, and the feeling was even stronger than before. That is when listening to Zhen talk about her real experience. Guo thought about it for a while, and probably the participant described later was herself. And this
It's not just random thoughts. As long as the details of Zhen's plan are carefully considered, it seems to be really feasible. As long as Guo is willing to do it, it can happen. This kind of imagination makes people even more nervous.
"As long as the arrangements are made well, no outsiders will know about it." Mrs. Zhen looked into Mrs. Guo's eyes and said seriously.
Guo bit her lip lightly, still feeling nervous: "You are so brave."
That hesitant and greedy inner fire was lured out again. Fear and desire were constantly entangled in my heart.
Guo has a lot, but also lacks a lot. She has status, respect, and good food and clothing that ordinary people cannot get, but she also lacks a stable and comfortable sense of security. She always feels that she will be threatened at any time, and her fate is in the hands of others.
In the past, when the late emperor was on the throne, she could only kill anyone in the palace who wanted, including the queen, so she could only live a cautious life. Now that she has finally become the queen mother, there are many people in the palace and inside and outside the palace, including the palace guards.
People who are bribed by powerful ministers still feel like they are in a prison.
The Guo family is now prosperous and prosperous. But after all, they are all uncles and cousins. The Queen Mother Guo cannot decide their choices. At most, there is only a certain degree of mutual dependence. Because she is the Queen Mother, the Guo family has
She can benefit from the wooing of the princes; the Queen Mother Guo can also gain some protection for her position because of the prosperity of the Guo family. That's all.
She can only restrain her thoughts and behave very calmly. In this way, there is no need for the powerful ministers to do anything to her. However, when she thinks about various needs, she still feels the inner demons in her heart.
Zhen suddenly laughed out loud, covered her mouth and said: "You really think that I am making suggestions? Of course it is just talk. If it is really done, if this matter is exposed, nothing will happen to you. I
It’s going to be really bad luck.”
Guo said softly: "You are the person closest to me. I will definitely find a way to protect you."
"As long as you have the heart, sister." Mrs. Zhen nodded, and said in a deep voice, "You can do whatever you want, as if it will happen. Isn't it more exciting to think about it this way? I also like to think about such things.
, and there is no point in thinking about things that we know will never happen.”
Guo did not respond, but said quietly: "I remembered a feeling I had experienced occasionally. Standing on a high platform and looking down, I often thought, what would happen if I jumped?"
Mrs. Zhen glared and said, "Don't scare me. What is there that you can't think of?"
Guo shook his head and said: "There is nothing unimaginable. I just occasionally have such an idea for no reason, and after thinking about it, I feel terrible. I was not afraid of heights at first, but when I think about it, it becomes more and more terrible. You have never been like this before
Such an experience?”
Mrs. Zhen thought seriously for a moment, nodded slightly and said, "It seems that I really thought about it. Of course, if I jumped, I would be bruised and bruised. But I forgot about it when I looked back, and I didn't remember it in my heart like you."
Guo suddenly asked: "If you don't even know who the other party is, why wouldn't Qin Zhongming be willing?"
Mrs. Zhen was startled for a moment, then she suddenly realized, and then said with a smile: "You are right, it is best to arrange two reliable people in advance to dig the tunnel from the nearby mansion to the other courtyard. Don't let Qin Zhongtai
I came here early and took him from the tunnel to the sleeping room where he took his siesta at noon that day. Your waist was so beautiful, so I lifted up my robe on the couch to seduce him. I coaxed him again, saying that he was someone I knew.
My friend is a widow, but he cares about his reputation. He is a school official himself, and he is not afraid of being caught for doing something like this. He never dreamed that it was the Queen Mother, and he is already here. After seeing such a beautiful place, he owes me a favor.
Most likely they won’t refuse.”
Guo blushed and nodded: "This method is at least better than the previous one. But my posture is indeed a bit outrageous."
Mrs. Zhen said with a smile: "The younger the son is, the easier it is to get dizzy when he sees beauty. Look at me, if you dress up more beautifully and don't show any flesh, I will make him submit in just two words."
She went on to say, "I also considered Qin Zhongming's feelings at first, but I just mentioned it in a hurry and didn't think too carefully. However, I said that I should give him a favor first, and it was the same consideration. It was better than negotiating terms with him.
.It not only prevents him from feeling that he is selling his body, but also makes him unable to refuse subsequent requests, because he has already received the benefits. Anyone who knows how to repay a favor should find a way to repay it."
Guo whispered: "If the matter is accidentally leaked, someone tells the secret, and someone wants to kill you and threatens me to warn me, I can make some exchanges with him to save your life. The royal family
There are still some things they need. Qin Zhongming doesn't need to worry too much, he is the son-in-law of the Wang family, and they won't be asking for trouble if they get involved too much in this kind of thing."
Zhen shook her head and said, "If you think about such a thing, don't think about it, it's boring."
Ms. Guo smiled slightly and said nothing more. She stood up from the banquet. When the cold wind blew, she immediately felt the chill on her legs under her robe. She didn't care much and walked to the window, looking at the Ganoderma lucidum pond.
The look in the rain.
Mrs. Zhen also came over and stood beside her.
Mrs. Guo turned her head and glanced at Mrs. Zhen, "Next time you see Qin Zhongming, tell him that you have persuaded me and will implement his salt-making strategy. I can also send the palace visitors from Changqiu to follow.
The people from the audience station will supervise the handling."
Zhen looked at Guo's face and asked, "Why did you change your mind?"
Guo said in a low voice: "I looked back and thought about it for a while. The good recipe for making salt is indeed not a big problem. I am giving Qin Zhongming some benefits in the name of a reward. I am already a favor, so why not give the favor to you as well?
One copy. Are you afraid that you still want to interact with him?"
Mrs. Zhen said softly: "I promised you before that you can only do it once. If you do it too many times, something may happen."
Guo laughed and said, "Do you believe it yourself?"
Zhen blushed and said, "I actually want to be famous. Those rumors are just rumors, but they have never been confirmed. What real evidence can be found for something that doesn't exist in the first place?"
Guo said nothing. At this time, she observed that the rain seemed to have eased a little, and the dark shadows of Jingyang Mountain in the distance could already be seen.
