Chapter three hundred and fortieth cold consolation
He didn't sleep well for two nights in a row, woke up countless times, and had many dreams, which greatly affected Qin Liang's mental state. However, when he approached Queen Mother Guo, he deliberately opened his eyes wider so that he didn't look like he was sleeping.
So tired. This was simply Qin Liang's instinctive reaction.
Because when he just woke up from the Wei Dynasty, he soon discovered that he had a new life. He looked back on his previous life of following the rules, being humble and diligent, and having a bad life experience with no happy ending. At that time, he made up his mind.
, I told myself that this time I must be confident and bold, as good people do not end well.
It is difficult to completely change a personality, but Qin Liang did change a lot consciously.
So when he met with Queen Mother Guo, he behaved quite calmly and calmly, as if he had everything in mind.
Empress Dowager Guo also took another careful look at him, tilted her head slightly towards Zhen, and said to Qin Liang, "I have something to say to Zhong Ming."
Zhen immediately said: "It's hard for you to meet each other, let's talk first."
Qin Liang turned to look at Zhen and nodded to her.
I could see the bright makeup on Mrs. Zhen’s face. On the contrary, Queen Mother Guo’s dress was quite plain, especially her smoky green blouse and dark long skirt, which were Zhen’s old clothes. Probably because
The reason why Queen Mother Guo wanted to dress up as a maid and sneak out of the East Palace.
However, Queen Mother Guo's lips were painted with rouge. She seemed to like to paint her lips very red, and deliberately left the corners of her mouth unpainted. Coupled with her beautiful and white chin, it was indeed quite charming.
Zhen's clothes are all carefully tailored. Even the simple and elegant clothes may seem ordinary, but in fact they are a waste of material. The waist-cutting is no problem for Empress Dowager Guo, but the chest is obviously too tight. The side of Empress Dowager Guo's bulging breasts
, the material stretched into creases.
She is tall and tall, and her appearance is still dignified. Even if she is not wearing palace silk clothes, it can still vaguely remind people of her appearance in the temple.
Queen Mother Guo gave birth to Ayu for Qin Liang, but Qin Liang had not been close to her for a long time. As soon as they met, Qin Liang immediately thought about that matter. He was like this sometimes, regardless of the atmosphere or occasion, he might have random thoughts at any time.
.
However, Queen Mother Guo was obviously in a bad mood, and it was obvious in her eyes.
After Zhen went out, Queen Mother Guo's expression relaxed. From the sound of her voice, she felt a little emotional, "On New Year's Eve, I really didn't want to kill Yu Wan. The Queen is the emperor's first wife, and she is always spoken ill of and left out.
Even if she was treated roughly, the queen was pitiful. I was also dissatisfied with the emperor's actions, and I just wanted to punish them for their stupidity and make them restrain themselves. But I didn't expect that she would be beaten to death like this."
Who is Yu Wan? Qin Liang can only guess from the words of Empress Dowager Guo that she is probably Cao Fang's favorite concubine. If she is not the emperor's woman, she cannot get involved in the palace fight.
Qin Liang listened patiently and did not say any words to comfort her. However, he put his hands on Queen Mother Guo's shoulders. While feeling the touch and body temperature of her soft skin, his stroking movements also showed his attitude.
Empress Dowager Guo seemed to have finally found someone she could talk to, and she no longer pretended to be emotional, and said in a trembling voice: "After Guanqiu Jian passed through Yecheng, the secret envoy he met secretly may be related to the emperor. Now the emperor is extremely resentful of me.
, he shouted in public that he wanted to sever the relationship between mother and son with me from now on!"
"Ha!" Qin Liang couldn't help but sneered when he heard this.
Queen Mother Guo raised her head and glanced at Qin Liang's face in surprise. Qin Liang's cheekbones were slightly higher, and his handsome face was quite angular, but the lines were not particularly strong.
Qin Liang stopped his smile immediately and said kindly: "He is not His Highness's biological child. I remember that his relationship with His Highness was not good before, so why should I care about what he said?"
He looked around this quaint and simple room. Fortunately, there were two new banquet tables nearby, and several cases had been cleared away. He put his hand on Queen Mother Guo's shoulders and said, "Let's sit down and talk slowly."
Queen Mother Guo stroked her long skirt and knelt down solemnly at the banquet. Her voice was choked with sobs and she sighed: "Although he is not his biological son, he is still my adopted son. I was still willing to protect him and hope that he would sit on the throne. "
She is usually a generous person, but she is a woman after all. She seems to pay more attention to the relationship between people and is not easy to take it too lightly.
Queen Mother Guo went on to say: "At this time, I failed to stabilize the palace, but something unexpected happened, alas!"
When Qin Liang heard this, he immediately said: "The people Guanqiu Jian meets are not necessarily related to the emperor. There are many people inside and outside the court who are dissatisfied with us. Some things are not a matter of details."
Queen Mother Guo immediately turned her head and looked directly at Qin Liang's face.
Qin Liang also turned to look at Queen Mother Guo next to him. Only on such occasions could he look directly at her face, certainly not in the court.
Queen Mother Guo couldn't help but ask: "Does Zhongming know all the recent news?"
"I know." Qin Liang pretended to be relaxed and responded without hesitation, "I don't even need to go to Shangshu Province. Someone will report the matter directly to General Wei's Mansion."
Queen Mother Guo asked: "What does Zhongming think?"
Qin Liang suddenly remembered a classic model in the game, and began to narrate: "Five bandits robbed a box of gold cakes, a total of one hundred pieces. After they returned to the mountains and forests, they began to divide the loot.
The rules are like this. If the first person proposes a distribution method, if not half of the people agree, he will be killed. By default, the party with more people will beat the one with fewer people. If he is killed, the second person will propose New methods must be adopted until the method is approved by at least half of the people and implemented."
He then asked: "How should the first person be divided so that he can maximize his benefits and not be killed?"
Qin Liang suddenly told a fable-like story, and Queen Mother Guo was also thinking about what to do, but her attention was distracted. The two talked for a while, and her mood came out of the worry and sadness just now.
The ancients had never heard of this story, but it is very famous in modern times. Qin Liang certainly knows the whole story.
He told the answer. The first person can monopolize up to ninety-eight gold cakes. The method is to work backwards.
A basic principle will emerge. From one to five in order, the next robber will naturally want to kill the previous robber; and the other party also knows this, because as long as the previous gold sharer is killed, the distribution right will be in his own hands.
After Qin Liang finished telling the story, he said: "If we follow this reasoning, the conflict between me and the Wang family is irreconcilable!
Fortunately, the world is different from the story. It is not that simple. There are various influencing factors, such as marriage, relationships, and the complex human hearts in the outside world. Moreover, people are not completely rational, and there is no need to completely maximize interests. In this way Unable to protect interests, things have not become completely cruel and cold." He turned to look at Queen Mother Guo: "But the simplified principles must also be considered." He thought for a while and said, "So don't panic, Your Highness. , my grandfather’s efforts were in vain, Wang Feixiao was defeated and lost his troops, which indeed caused the reputation of the ruling to plummet, but it is not necessarily a bad thing at all.”
Such words can only be said in front of Queen Mother Guo. In front of her, you can talk about matters with the Wang family completely rationally. Queen Mother Guo doesn't care much about the Wang family.
Wang Lingjun, Xuanji, and Qin Liang are also very close to them, but they are the Wang family after all, so it is too cold to say it, and it is really not good for them.
But even Queen Mother Guo would probably feel the cruelty of the power struggle after hearing such remarks. Her mood completely changed, and she was looking intently into Qin Liang's eyes, with even a hint of a smile on her lips.
"I am still worried about the threat from Wu Shu and Guan Qiu Jian, but Zhongming is thinking about the Wang family." Empress Dowager Guo said softly.
Qin Liang's cold performance seemed to give Queen Mother Guo some confidence.
As expected, when a real man encounters something, even if he is unsure, he should avoid crying or panicking. Only by being confident can you give confidence to your allies!
Qin Liang nodded and said: "If the Wang family is not in crisis, they will keep an eye on me."
Women probably rely more on intuitive feelings. Although Qin Liang did not talk about ways to resolve it, his performance has changed the mentality of Queen Mother Guo. A noble person like Queen Mother Guo may also be affected by the strong aura of men. .
A faint smile appeared on her face, and her voice became gentler: "Can Zhong Ming put his eyes elsewhere and find a way to deal with the situation?"
Qin Liang did not answer directly, only said: "Your Highness can summon me in the courtyard of Taiji Palace to talk about those matters, and you can also talk about them in the palace. There is no need to waste time on business now."
The wrinkles in the fabric on the side of Queen Mother Guo have long fascinated Qin Liang, because the wrinkles in the fabric will make the outline of things more three-dimensional, making it easier for people to imagine wonderful and natural shapes. For example, if you want to draw a three-dimensional sense in a sketch, you also need to Express it with the density of lines.
At this time, Queen Mother Guo's mood improved and she gradually became in a mood, and Qin Liang's hand was no longer polite.
She glanced at the ajar wooden door a little nervously and said softly: "I am anxious to leave the palace today. I just want to see Zhong Ming. It's not that I can't help it as you thought."
Qin Liang said: "I know that His Highness is a noble and dignified person. It's just that His Highness is so beautiful that I can't help it."
Probably because they hadn't seen each other for a long time, the feeling between the two was a bit unfamiliar. Empress Dowager Guo was embarrassed and felt a little reserved. Qin Liang understood that few women would think that she was wild, let alone Queen Mother Guo. status person.
Sure enough, she quickly said in a non-committal voice: "As soon as the matter is over, I will find an opportunity and find a way to serve Zhong Ming well."
We will talk about the future matters later. Of course Qin Liang is not willing to let it go today.
Queen Mother Guo did not resist Qin Liang's blasphemy. The two had a private meeting because Zhen had conveyed such a thing. Queen Mother Guo's red cheeks and the rhythm of her breathing seemed to hint at her mood.
After a long time, Qin Liang suddenly remembered the scene when he came, the mud of melted snow, and the feeling in the rice fields.
