Chapter 26 Like-minded people
When she realized her thoughts, Wei Huaian was startled again. How could she have such thoughts? No... this is just a game, and she must not confuse the game with reality.
She shook her head, and then returned to her usual casual look. As if she heard something interesting, Wei Huaian laughed and said, "Very few people can see this."
Chen Buran also laughed.
She knew that the queen in front of her did not care about palace rules. Although it might be a bit mysterious to say it, Chen Buran did feel that the queen was a kindred spirit when he saw her for the first time.
Chen Buran winked at Wei Huai'an and asked jokingly: "So, Madam, can you tell me now why I was able to gain the emperor's attention as soon as I followed Zhaoyi into the palace?"
"Yes, yes." Wei Huai'an looked at her a little strangely, and couldn't help but ask: "You are just a princess outside the palace, why are you asking this? It can't be because Sui Zhaoyi has any past disputes with you, right?
?”
Chen Bulan smiled and said: "There is no dispute. But..."
She paused and said cryptically: "It's just that the people behind the concubine always hope to find out whether His Majesty gave Sui Zhaoyi such special treatment because of the Marquis of Anping."
Chen Bulan's words were very cryptic, but Wei Huai'an quickly understood the meaning behind her. She nodded gently, and at the same time finally figured out a question that she had been unable to figure out before -
Ever since she entered the palace with Ming Huan, many respectable ladies have always come to her to inquire about information.
Wei Huaian was very puzzled at that time.
With Ming Huan already in the palace, even if she is a little wife, she doesn’t have any conflict of interest with you people outside the palace, right? Why are everyone so vigilant?
Until now, Wei Huaian finally understood.
They all thought that the co-authorship was related to Anpinghou.
And once it involves court politics, it will inevitably involve court party strife.
If I remember correctly, Anpinghou is a reformist. Now that Jun Zici is giving such special treatment to Anpinghou's legitimate daughter, the conservatives will inevitably start to think wildly - the reward for Anpinghou's victory has already been given, why does Your Majesty need additional treatment?
Let her daughter enter the palace? Does this mean that Jun Zeci is ready to favor the reformists and take action against conservatives like them?
Wei Huai'an, who finally caught up with the thinking of these courtiers, was just a little speechless. She couldn't help but tap her temples, and then she couldn't help but complain: "You people really... think too much."
It's as if a superior leader saw the fallen leaves on the ground during an inspection and casually boasted, "Autumn is here, the fallen leaves are so beautiful." Then the people below immediately became uneasy and wondered whether they were criticizing them for not doing a good enough job in cleaning.
…Isn’t this simply overthinking?!
Wei Huaian often feels that the brain circuits of these aristocratic families are strange (disease).
By coincidence, Chen Bulan standing in front of her was also a victim who had been poisoned by all kinds of weird ideas from aristocratic families.
But over the years, whenever she wanted to complain to the people around her, the maids around her would look at her in horror as soon as she started talking, as if what she said was something heinous.
Not only that, they would immediately kneel down and kowtow as soon as she said the words: "Girl, you must not say that! Be careful, the walls have ears! The second lady has been staring at you! What you said
As soon as you say it, the master will know it immediately. You are a girl who is loved by the master, so you will not be punished much, but the master will punish the slaves!"
"Girl, my good girl, please think of us for a moment!"
After doing this several times in a row, Chen Bulan no longer had any intention of complaining. From a smart girl who talked about everything and was curious about everything she saw, to the noble lady who is now cautious in words and deeds, it is very simple.
It would be nice to be surrounded by people who are watching her every word and action.
After so many years, it was rare for Chen Buran to meet a like-minded person who had the same thoughts as him, and even the queen dared to say so... She just echoed a few words, it was not a big problem.
As a result, Chen Buran also echoed with great joy: "Mother, do you think so too?"
also?
Wei Huaian keenly caught her word and looked at her with raised eyebrows. His sense of Chen Bulan was much better than at the beginning.
The character created in the game is more realistic and story-telling than the character Mingyue Sheng.
From the current point of view, it is obvious that Chen Bulan used to be a bohemian and a hard nut to crack, but the process of how she became the lifeless person she is now seems to have an unknown story.
...Maybe it has something to do with the childhood sweetheart Wei Huaian heard about before.
However, Wei Huai'an doesn't know whether Mingyue Sheng's character design is weak because the game settings are not good, or because he may not have discovered the hidden story points of the opponent.
...You can try it another day.
Wei Huaian touched his chin and thought.
Chen Buran didn't know how many twists and turns her mind had made in a short period of time. She just continued to ask curiously: "Empress, please don't be silent. I want to hear about Sui Zhaoyi."
Wei Huai'an was pulled back from her thoughts. When Sui Minghuan was mentioned, she was a little less interested and said nonchalantly: "Ah, Sui Zhaoyi, actually Anpinghou is just a small reason."
"Huh?" This is not the main reason? Chen Buran was keenly aware that there might be something that outsiders didn't know, and asked: "Then what is the main reason?"
"It's not like Sui Zhaoyi's beauty has made your Majesty fall in love at first sight, right?"
Even after Chen Bulan said this statement, he felt it was ridiculous and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
How could such a thing happen?
She raised her eyes and glanced at Wei Huai'an in front of her, thinking to herself that she had seen the queen's beautiful and charming face, how could anyone fall in love with someone else at first sight?
However, as soon as she finished thinking this, she saw that Wei Huaian fell into a strange silence. He softly said "Huh" and said in a deep tone: "So...it doesn't seem impossible?"
"ah?"
Chen Buran was suddenly a little stunned. The gentle smile he had maintained so well disappeared and was replaced by a bit of stupid shock.
Wei Huai'an didn't care that much and waved his hand casually: "It's not a big deal. It's just that Sui Zhaoyi saved your majesty's life when he was young. Now that he is going to enter the palace, your majesty will of course give you special treatment."
After saying that, she paused again and said thoughtfully: "However, His Majesty only met Sui Zhaoyi once when he was a child, and yet he has been feeling guilty for so long. Maybe it's not guilt, but love at first sight?"
"..." Chen Bulan was immediately speechless.
My dear, love at first sight can’t be calculated like this, right?
What's more, how could His Majesty know what liking means when he was a child?
