Chapter 469: The Queen Mother appears
For the sake of the family, where did they dare to go against the silver concubine, they had to do nothing without seeing it and keeping silent.
Before entering the palace, the mama who instructed had a saying that was right, if you want to survive in the harem, you have to think of yourself as deaf, dumb, unable to see or hear, so that you can live in this cannibalistic place.
"Niangniang is really shameless, she doesn't admit it if she pushes people, it's shameless to the extreme! The people who follow you are really pitiful!"
Heng Zhi helped Concubine Ning to stand up, and scolded Concubine Yin, this woman is really cheap and obedient. There are often shameless people, and there are especially many in the harem.
"It's just a yellow-haired girl, and she actually taught this palace a lesson? ”
Judging from Heng Zhi's age, she is indeed a few years younger than Yin Concubine, Yin Concubine is not used to being taught by people younger than herself, even if it is the future Princess Huan, it is not that she has not passed the door yet, what is there to be arrogant?
"Yellow-haired girl, hehe, silver concubine Niangniang, have you forgotten that you are in front of me, you are just a concubine, and I am the future princess Huan, the marriage given by His Majesty, and I have to see me when I see Niangniang in the future. ”
Heng Zhi specially bit the word concubine very hard, and at the same time did not forget to glance at the people behind her, without reminding her, those people really forgot her identity.
Heng Zhi never cared about the so-called rules and regulations in the palace, but sometimes, it feels good to use it to suppress people.
"You!" Yin Concubine glared at Heng Zhi, and actually wanted to salute her, which was simply insulting her!
"Miss Hengzhi, it's okay, I don't have anything to do, I don't need to meet them in general. Ning Concubine saw that the smell of gunpowder was extremely strong, so she hurriedly came out to play a round, not wanting to cause a dispute because of her own reasons.
"Don't underestimate people too much! What general knowledge! Ning Concubine, don't kick your nose in the face!" Yin Concubine saw that the people behind her didn't help her, and she was very angry.
"What are you arguing about early in the morning?" Just as Heng Zhi and Yin Concubine were tense, the voice of the Queen Mother came. I saw that the Queen Mother was supported by the palace maid and walked from not far away, and glanced thoughtfully at Heng Zhi holding Concubine Ning's hand.
Concubine Ning avoided the Queen Mother's gaze, let go of Heng Zhi's hand, and saw that the person who came was the Queen Mother.
With the Yun Guiren behind them, they knelt down tremblingly, Heng Zhi was stunned for a long time and did not react, and was pulled by Ning Concubine to kneel: "I have seen the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is blessed with Jin'an." ”
Compared with the emperor, the person who the harem concubines are most afraid of is the queen mother.
The queen has been in charge of the phoenix seal for several years, and to this day she doesn't have to look at the queen mother's face. But if there is a big matter, you have to ask the Queen Mother and ask her old man's opinion before it can be implemented.
The queen is still afraid of the queen mother, not to mention these low-ranking concubines.
The Queen Mother picked up the glass hairpin that fell on the ground, held it in her hand and looked at it carefully, without saying anything to let them get up.
Everyone waited for the Queen Mother to speak, and they didn't dare to come out, Heng Zhi looked at the people kneeling on the left and right with her spare eyes and found that except for herself and Ning Concubine, who were more calm, the rest of the faces were not very good.
Heng Zhi felt that the fear on their faces was not because of what Fang had just done, but because of the fear of the Queen Mother from the bottom of her heart.
This old woman is not simple, Heng Zhi looked at the Queen Mother with her spare eyes, her eyes swept over the red jade bracelet on the Queen Mother's wrist, and then she withdrew her gaze and bowed her head and knelt obediently.
"Look at the mourning family, except for Miss Luojia, the rest of you have been in the palace for some years, right?"
The emperor is addicted to wine, playful but often drafts, so the women in the harem are counted and counted.
There are only a few hundred people left and right, compared to other emperors, it is a little less, but this is the emperor's own business, even the queen mother who covers the sky with one hand, and he can't arrange the selection of concubines for him again and again, there are many people in the harem, and the queen mother doesn't think it's a good thing.
"Why don't you reply, Concubine Xin, you come on. The Queen Mother raised her voice with some displeasure, and the timid Yun Guiren on the side was a little frightened, Heng Zhi shook her head, looking at the frightened people.
The Queen Mother is also a master who is not shocking and dies, she really pities Yun Guiren, and her too weak temperament is not a good thing for her.
Xin Concubine's father is just a fourth-grade official in the court, and it is a coincidence that he was named a concubine.
Although the Queen Mother did not listen to the government in the court, the decision-making power was in her hands, and if she said something wrong in front of the Queen Mother, her head would not be guaranteed, and the family would not be much better off in the future.
"Hui, back to the Queen Mother, in addition to Yun Guiren, Ning Concubine and Shu Jieyu entered the palace the year before last, and the concubine, Yin Concubine and Huang Guiren all entered the palace in five years. ”
The emperor has not held a large-scale draft so far, but the harem will never lack women because of this, and civil and military officials and some people with a heart will try their best to send women to the harem. It's not to please the emperor, or to install eyeliner.
"In that case, I think you should know what the most hated thing is the mourning family. ”
The Queen Mother's meaningful voice came from overhead, bringing a heavy atmosphere that pressed down on them, making them almost out of breath.
None of the kneeling dared to speak, Heng Zhi wanted to say, but she and this old woman had only met three times, and they had all glanced at the palace banquet from a distance, and they hadn't said a few words, so how did she know what she hated.
"Didn't everyone talk like they were smeared with oil just now? Why didn't they speak again, Liu Yun, tell me what the mourning family hates the most. ”
The Queen Mother doesn't like people to come to her place every day to say goodbye, it's too noisy not to say, and waiting for the women of the harem to come to see her is also a very troublesome thing, so the Queen Mother simply asked them to ask for peace on the first and fifteenth days of the new year, and they don't have to do it at other times.
Liu Yun stepped forward with broken steps and said respectfully: "Queen Mother, you have always hated people with unclean hands and feet, especially the Queen Mother, who likes to stir up trouble and often has a mouth that does not stop, you are the most disgusted in your heart. ”
The Queen Mother seemed to be very satisfied, walked up to the silver concubine, raised her chin, and the meaning in her eyes was unclear.
"However, jealousy is often present in the harem, and the mourning family can be seen a lot, and I am unwilling, so I have to try my best to catch something, but this kind of person often ends well. Liu Yun, I don't know if you still remember how the previous Concubine De died?"
Few people mention the dead Concubine De in the harem, not because they don't want to mention it, but because they don't dare.
At the mention of Concubine De's name, Concubine Yin's body trembled, and her eyes were full of fear.
