The Cannon Fodder and Villain’s Happy Ending

The newly made Rubik's Cube exudes a faint scent of pine wood and paint.

Qin Di held it in his hand and played with it for a while, and the rotation of each side was quite flexible. Compared with the Rubik's Cube of later generations, it was already similar, and it was very delicately made with bright colors on it. Very striking.

After seeing the Rubik's Cube, Gu Zhen really liked it very much. Qin Di only taught it once, and the little guy played well.

"Crack, clap, clap..."

The sound of the cube turning echoed in the air.

Gu Zhen seemed to have something on her mind. After playing with the Rubik's Cube for a while, she couldn't help but leaned into Qin Di's ear and bit her ear:

"cousin.

I tell you a secret.

The queen mother went to greet the grandmother yesterday and was scolded by the grandmother. "

"The royal grandmother said that the queen mother's hand stretched too long."

"Also, don't forget the imperial concubine's surname 'Liu'!"

"Cousin Ji, what do you mean by stretching your hand too long?"

Gu Zhen looked at Qin Di with a confused look on her innocent face, "Did the mother do something wrong?"

Gu Zhen said something incomprehensible, but Qin Di barely understood it.

She also lived in the palace for a while, and she knew that Queen Wei had been investigating the last time Gu Zhen fell into the water at Qingjing Temple, and she also found the head of the imperial concubine.

These days, Empress Wei, on the pretext of tightening the cost of the harem, has released a group of palace servants out of the palace, and cleaned up the eyeliner that the concubine placed in each palace.

Qin Di also knew that the imperial concubine was not only the biological mother of the second prince Gu Jing, but also the direct niece of the empress dowager, who had the same surname as "Liu".

So, the queen mother is making her way for the imperial concubine.

Qin Di patted Gu Zhen's head and explained, "The Queen Mother's words mean that my aunt shouldn't be too busy, but..."

She paused for a while before continuing, "However, my aunt is the queen and the master of the harem. It is her responsibility and power to take care of the harem."

Qin Di lowered his body slightly, looked him in the eyes, and said word by word, "So, my aunt did nothing wrong."

"Um!"

Gu Zhen smiled, and the lovely bun's face was as bright as the morning sun.

He nodded vigorously, "I believe my cousin!"

Gu Zhen is relieved!

Although he didn't quite understand the meaning of the queen mother, the mother Li, who was beside the queen mother, quietly told him that the queen mother was angry with the mother, and persuaded him to let the mother admit her mistake. Only in this way, the queen mother would be relieved.

Gu Zhen was a little ignorant, but felt that it seemed wrong to do so.

Therefore, he quietly asked Qin Di.

Now Qin Di told him that his mother was right.

That's it!

Gu Zhen's mirror-like eyes were filled with trust, and she added, "Actually, the imperial grandmother doesn't like me."

Gu Zhen was only four years old, and when he talked about this topic, his eyes inevitably showed a little loss.

"My aunt likes Zhen'er, the emperor likes Zhen'er, and I like Zhen'er too."

Qin Di said with a smile, smiling like a flower, "We don't have to force people who don't like Zhen'er."

"Um!"

Gu Zhen nodded vigorously again, and a shallow smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

That's right, he still has a mother, a father, and a cousin!

Gu Zhen's eyes fell on the Rubik's Cube in Qin Di's hand, raised his brows, pointed to her Rubik's Cube and said, "Wrong, I should turn the Rubik's Cube this way!"

"It's obviously to the right!"

Qin Di insisted.

"Cousin, if you don't believe me, you will regret it!"

"..."

The cousin and brother were talking and laughing, but no one noticed that Queen Wei had been standing quietly outside the door for a while.

Empress Wei did not go in, but turned around and left.

"Niangniang, 'that one' doesn't know what Ande has in mind."

Madam Xu was Queen Wei's wet nurse. She was married to the East Palace back then, and she was wholehearted with the Queen. "She even instigated His Highness to want His Highness to be at odds with the mother and son."

Madam Xu said angrily.

Queen Wei's face darkened.

These days, every piece of evidence she found pointed to the imperial concubine, and she was almost certain that the imperial concubine wanted to harm her son.

Empress Wei's hand hidden in her sleeve clenched into a fist, her fingertips pinched her palm tightly, her thoughts flew: If Zhen'er was really instigated by the Queen Mother to come and make trouble with herself, and let herself admit her mistake, for the sake of Zhen'er, she would be very Eight or nine will compromise.

The queen mother knew her too well and knew that her weakness was Zhen'er.

Empress Wei sneered in a cold tone: "The queen mother likes Gu Jing, and she only treats Gu Jing as her sweetheart. In her eyes, Zhen'er is a tool that can be used!"

"Fortunately, there is girl Ji."

Mammy Xu said with relief, "The niangniang really didn't hurt her in vain."

Empress Wei nodded slightly with a smile, a smile flashed across her cold eyes just now, and said, "Mother Xu, Ben Gong knows it, a fake is a fake."

"Mammy is right."

Mammy Xu nodded in agreement, "In the past, my servants looked like you and Qin Xin were always separated by a layer."

"At that time, Ben Gong also wanted to be nice to her, but I always felt that I couldn't make out."

Empress Wei said again with a sigh, "If you face Xiaoji, you won't."

"Niangniang, where is the noble concubine and the empress dowager..." Mother Xu asked hesitantly, "Do you want to tell the emperor?"

Empress Wei shook her head, "The emperor has been in a bad mood recently, and he has to deal with the envoys of Beiyan."

As she spoke, she said lightly, "Let's finish the Qianqiu Festival first."

Speaking of "Qianqiu Banquet", Madam Xu frowned, with a look of indignation on her face.

Just now, the Empress Dowager also proposed to let the imperial concubine help share the palace affairs in the name of the empress being too tired to prepare the birthday banquet.

The Qianqiu Festival is held every year, and Queen Wei's preparations are well-organized, and many things are done according to the old rules.

But the empress dowager's words made Empress Wei moved, and she took Qin Di with her when she was dealing with palace affairs the next day.

Qin Ji: "..."

Facing the confused Qin Di, Empress Wei couldn't help but wanted to laugh and explained, "Xiao Di, your mother is gone, and your grandmother is unreliable... You will get married sooner or later, so learn from your aunt first. Learn how to cook Chinese food."

"Actually, the big mansion is not much different from the palace, that is, food, clothing, housing, and transportation. We don't need to do everything ourselves, as long as we control the general direction, otherwise what are we going to do with so many people at the bottom?"

Empress Wei said so, Qin Di could only obey and pick up the account book given by Empress Wei.

Empress Wei smiled gratified, and said again: "Next year, you should also get married. At that time, my aunt will choose a good marriage for you."

Qin Di was about to read the account book, but when she heard Queen Wei say such a sentence, it was like a thunderclap on the ground, which shocked her.

Yes, it seems that in ancient times, women could talk about marriage after they were fifteen years old.

The original owner is fourteen years old this year...

Qin Di's eyes widened, and the whole person suddenly felt a little bad.

"Xiao Ji, you should finish reading this account book in a while..."

Empress Wei's gentle voice echoed in her ears, but Qin Di was so immersed in the "bad news" that she was going to get married soon, she couldn't hear a word.

On weekdays, Empress Wei usually took care of palace affairs in the morning, but because she wanted to teach Qin Di, she slowed down the pace.

Before lunch, Madam Xu went out, and when she came back, she said, "Master, the Empress Dowager has sent someone to Jingzhao Mansion to pick up Daoist Master Yunguang."

Queen Wei put down the spoon gracefully, her orchid fingers slightly curled up, and while wiping the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, she nodded and asked, "Where are you now?"

"I'm in the Cining Palace now, practicing the pill recipe for the Queen Mother's preaching."

Mother Xu replied.

Empress Wei smiled and instructed: "When you go to the Cining Palace, it is said that this palace knows the empress dowager's faith, and specially arranged a Taoist temple for Daoist Yunguang near the Cining Palace..."

Madam Xu stepped back in response.

Empress Wei gave Qin Di a meaningful wink.

Qin Di pursed his lips and smiled, his eyes were like two crescent moons, and he was pure and innocent.

It was Qin Di's idea to let people deliberately tell the Queen Mother that Daoist Master Yunguang was arrested into Jingzhao Mansion.

The Queen Mother trusted Daoist Master Yunguang, and she was easily brought into the palace from Jingzhao Mansion.

"Xiao Ji," Queen Wei confirmed again, "Are you sure there is something wrong with the pill?"

Qin Di nodded firmly.

She is sure that this matter is gone, the medicine pill must not be taken for a long time!

Empress Wei still believed in Qin Di, and she didn't say any more. She turned around and said, "Xiao Di, after you have eaten, go and read the account book."

Qin Ji: "..."

Thinking of the pile of numbers and traditional characters on the account book, she suddenly felt that the food in her mouth was not tasty.

The Queen Mother's birthday is on the 21st of October.

Early that morning, Mrs. Qin Tai, who was wearing first-class makeup, entered the palace with her daughter-in-law Su and Qin Xin.

They first came to Fengluan Palace to greet Empress Wei, and as soon as they entered the main hall, they saw Qin Di sitting beside Empress Wei.

The eyes of Mrs. Qin's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law inevitably fell on her.

After not seeing him for ten days, Qin Di has become a little different from before. His skin has become fairer by three points, and his temperament has also undergone some changes. He has become more calm and elegant. , has a bit of the noble bearing of a daughter of a noble family.

Mrs. Qin Tai's mood is a little complicated.

"See the Empress."

After bowing to Empress Wei, Mrs. Qin Tai frowned and said to Qin Di: "Sister Di, you can go back with us today, don't disturb the Empress in the palace."

After Qin Di rushed out of Ronghetang that day, Mrs. Qin Tai was stunned, and before she could react, Qin Xin said worriedly: "Grandmother, will the third sister go to the Empress to complain?

Why don't I go to Zhuangzi to live..."

Hearing Qin Xin's words, Mrs. Qin Tai was also angry, so she didn't enter the palace. She wanted to wait for Qin Di to become soft, but Qin Di didn't, so she stayed in the palace safely.

At this moment, seeing Qin Di accompanying Queen Wei as a mother and daughter, Mrs. Qin Tai's expression inevitably showed a hint of embarrassment.

In any case, she has seen Qin Di today, and she can't tell if she doesn't pick him up.

Qin Di just pursed his lips and smiled, but did not answer Mrs. Qin Tai's words.

Empress Wei slowly brushed off the foam on the tea soup with the tea lid, and said in a low voice, "Mrs. Qin Tai, do you know what's wrong?"
