第32章 做脸(1 / 2)

爱谁谁 风流书呆 0 字 2022-01-09

    宫中变动,叶蓁着实慌乱了好些天,及至太后下懿旨,言明皇上初登大宝需行善积德,现将大龄宫女、内侍,放回原籍予以家人团聚,方恢复镇定。而司明、司琴、司画,和那些平白消失的眼线,均在这批宫人之中。

    “吓死奴婢了,原来是太后娘娘欲行善事才闹出这样大的动静。”咏荷一面给主子捶腿一面感叹。

    “行什么善事?老虔婆这是存心与本宫作对呢。”叶蓁狠声道,“她定是查到些什么才清理六宫,不过无碍,有钱能使鬼推磨,本宫别的没有,银子却多的是,再收买几个眼线也就罢了。”

    话刚说完,有内侍跪地通禀,说太史令夫人递了牌子前来觐见,如今正在宫门外等候听传。

    “不见。”想起皇上的吩咐,叶蓁毫不犹豫地摆手,须臾又改了主意,“罢,将她带进来。”

    刘氏缩肩塌背地走入大殿,行了个不伦不类的宫廷礼节,上不得台面的模样叫叶蓁胸闷不已。未等刘氏开口,她冷道,“日后无事切莫入宫,没得给本宫丢脸。”

    刘氏瑟缩一下,诉苦道,“若无事,我也不敢时时来叨扰娘娘。说起来,还是镇北侯府那头出了问题。娘娘不是吩咐我把叶繁塞进去吗?赵陆离答应是答应了,万没料到关氏竟起了幺蛾子,把她的贴身丫鬟除了奴籍,也硬塞给他,还选在同一天过门。目下,燕京都传遍了,赞她贤良淑德,雍容大度,不愧为帝师之后,斥咱们叶家商贾出身,不懂礼数。咱们没给她添半点堵,反倒惹了一身腥,待叶繁与那贱婢过门之日,怕是会被满城勋贵臊死。哎哟,我这脸都不知道该往哪儿搁了。”

    为了应景儿,刘氏抬起左手挡脸,表情十分恼恨。

    叶蓁沉吟片刻,冷笑起来,“本宫还当发生了什么,原是这点鸡毛蒜皮的小事。关氏过门没多久,想必对赵陆离感情不深,这才舍得把自个儿的丫头给他。女人多是以夫为天,日子长了难免深陷情网,却是作茧自缚的时候到了。叶繁不是省油的灯,叫她好好拉拢那丫头,二人合击一个,又有熙儿在府中帮衬,早晚叫关氏自食其果。”

    “话是这么说没错,但咱们叶府二房嫡女竟与一个贱婢同日过门,且还都是贵妾,这脸可丢大了。”刘氏咬牙切齿地道,“早知如此,当初便不该把关氏弄进侯府,随便找个浪荡子将人掳走,毁了清白再送回去,叫她悬梁自缢才好。届时关家也名声扫地,看他们怎么在燕京立足!”

    叶蓁语带讥讽,“你也就是嘴皮子利索,有本事便去做,看看能不能避开皇上的追查。”

    刘氏没本事,只能悻悻闭嘴。

    叶蓁叹道,“罢了,毕竟是叶家女儿,哪能让外人欺到头上。你且放心回去,明日本宫便派人去给叶繁做脸。本宫倒要看看,关氏手腕再硬,还能硬的过本宫不成?”

    “她一个小小的侯夫人,焉能与娘娘相提并论?叶家的脸面也是娘娘的脸面,娘娘务必把脸做大些,好叫旁人知道叶家的荣宠富贵。”刘氏转怒为喜,语带谄媚。

    叶蓁淡然应诺,话锋陡然一转,“最近太后清理宫闱,扫灭本宫许多眼线。你也知道,栽培一个得用的人不容易,其中花费甚巨,还需家里多帮衬些。正所谓一荣俱荣一损俱损,叶家如今全靠本宫支应,本宫好了你们才能好,本宫若是倒台,后果自不用说。”

    “呸呸呸,娘娘别说这些丧气话,有救命之恩在,倒谁也倒不了你。”说完这话,刘氏莫名有些心虚,忙把怀里的银票翻出来交给大宫女咏荷。

    “日后有事,本宫自会遣人送信,你别总往宫里钻,免得陛下反感。”叶蓁慎重嘱咐一句,末了命人送客。

    与此同时,圣元帝正在未央宫中接见镇西侯秦凌云,二人也不说话,一个递折子,一个翻阅,行止间默契十足。

    看完折子,圣元帝冷笑道,“复辟大周,薛明瑞倒是胆大妄为。待魏国初兴,朕早晚要夺回被他占去的蜀州等地。”

    秦凌云并不开腔,把扩张军队、囤积粮草、打造武器、购置战马等折子递过去,里面条条款款罗列整齐,可见已筹谋良久。

    那薛明瑞原是前朝大将,战败后率领十几万兵马遁入丛山峻岭、道路险阻的蜀州,联合当地匪寇成立了新军,一再扩张后竟把周边等地占去,自立为王,欲与魏国二分天下。卧榻之侧岂容他人鼾睡,圣元帝霸道惯了,早已有心反攻,却因魏国初建,民心不稳,不得不暂时搁置。

    二人料理完军国大事,这才说起十日舌战。圣元帝对谁输谁赢丝毫不感兴趣,张口就问,“镇北侯夫人可去旁听?”

    “自从赵陆离纳妾的消息传开,她便再没去过。”秦凌云取出一颗佛珠扔进茶杯。若不是对皇上的态度感兴趣,他万万不会把话浪费在这种小事上。

    “纳妾便纳妾,她是朕亲封的一品诰命,难道还怕地位不够稳固?”圣元帝不知出于什么心理,又追加一句,“为赵陆离那样的人劳心劳力,伤心伤情,着实不值。”

    “既知道赵陆离是个什么货色,皇上当初为何要赐婚?这不是亲手将她往火坑里推吗?”
