Chapter 461: Canary
The news of the Queen Mother's reluctance to meddle in this matter soon spread throughout the harem.
After this twist and turn, when talking about the queen mother, everyone is extremely in awe. Even if some people are secretly unwilling, they don't dare to show it in their faces. And the palace people were a little reverent after learning that the queen acted so decisively and resolutely.
After all, the concubine has a brutal personality, and she is not a good person in the harem.
For a time, Yang Chun's prestige in the palace soared.
In the cold palace, the grass in the corner of the wall has turned yellow, and the gate that locks the cold palace is full of rust.
The palace maid who delivered the food hurriedly put the leftovers on the wall, and didn't even call the people inside to pick up the food.
A concubine who has been beaten into the cold palace, without a grand favor, is naturally not as good as a maid.
Yang Chun sat in a relatively red, red phoenix sedan chair, swearing the dignity of the master.
"The Queen Mother has arrivedβ"
As soon as the palace maid finished shouting, the lazy and lazy palace maids and eunuchs in the cold palace immediately rushed out to salute: "See the queen mother." β
She walked down from the room and walked towards the courtyard of the cold palace.
When Concubine Shu heard the battle outside, she hurriedly sat up from the bed, supporting her immobile legs, without the decoration of bright clothes, and her plain white old clothes looked particularly pale and weak. When she saw Yang Chun coming in, she gritted her teeth and said, "What are you doing here?"
"Be bold, Niangniang came to visit you, that's your blessing!" The big palace maid immediately supported her mother.
Concubine Shu hated it very much, if it was put in the past, how could a little palace maid dare to talk to her like this.
"I'm here to see you. Yang Chun said, putting the food prepared in his hand on the table.
In this shabby place, even the windows leaked, and there were suddenly more delicate pastries on the tattered wooden table, which looked extremely discordant. She sarcastically said, "Don't fake your kindness, I'm doing this now because of you." Did you poison the pastry?
As soon as the palace maid wanted to say something, Yang Chun waved her hand, indifferent to these stimulating words. She approached Concubine Shu and whispered in the other party's ear: "Poisonous woman, hehe, wait." β
She walked around here and told the maids below to "take care" of the concubine.
If people don't offend me, I don't offend anyone. If anyone sins against me, he will not be merciful.
"Get up the carβ"
The rickety Fengluan sedan chair walked in the direction of Fengluan Palace.
Fengluan Palace has been renovated in the past few days, and it is more beautiful and luxurious. Early in the morning, the waiting maids greeted her outside the palace.
"Queen Mother, the concubines have come to greet you. The maid reported.
She nodded absent-mindedly, signaling that she understood. When she returned to the main hall, sure enough, a group of concubines gathered there, and when they saw her coming back, they hurriedly got up and saluted.
"Queen Mother, your Fengluan Palace is really beautiful, and sure enough, the residence of a noble person is not ordinary. Concubine Liang covered her handkerchief and praised with a smile, "The sisters just discussed you." β
"Hmm. She nodded, a little distracted.
"The queen's mother, this golden hairpin is so good-looking, the emperor rewarded you, I envy my dead sister. β
"This is hibiscus paste made by my sister herself, my sister should not dislike it. β
Concubine Liang laughed and said: "Don't be ugly about your craftsmanship, if the queen's sister likes it, my sister will also send it to you another day to ensure that you love to eat." β
Several concubines gathered around to compliment her, and these words lingered in her ears, and finally she gradually lost her voice, and she had forgotten what these people had just said.
The harem is like this, if you are favored, you will be above 10,000 people, live a noble life, people come to greet you every day, and if you fall out of favor, you will be like a concubine, and even the palace maid can be bullied at any time. Everyone wants to be favored, so it causes all kinds of disputes, and she is really afraid that she will die in the deep palace one day
She was tired.
Sending those people away, she sat confused, not knowing her future for a while.
Tang Yunzhao strode in, and the palace maid guarding the door was just about to kneel, but he waved his hand to signal not to make a sound. He handed Yang Chun a set of flags from behind and said, "Look, this is a gadget sent by the envoys of neighboring countries, it is quite unusual, I heard that it is called backgammon." How about I teach you how to play?"
"No need. She lowered her head, not wanting to look at him.
Tang Yunzhao saw that she was unhappy, and continued to coax: "This is very fun, you can win in five consecutive lines, really don't try it?"
"I don't want to play. Yang Chun shook his head.
"Then what you want to eat, I will ask you to prepare. β
Another indifferent refusal.
Seeing that she was unhappy, he tried his best to coax a smile. Tang Yunzhao's face gradually cooled, and he asked tiredly: "How can you talk to me well, I want to make you happy." β
He is very serious about coaxing someone to be happy, and with the gentleness and carefulness he has never had, he has indeed refused again and again.
This made him angry and he didn't know how to deal with it.
Yang Chun said: "Let me go out of the palace." β
She doesn't like it here, even if she has no worries about food and clothing. Fighting openly and secretly, no matter how bright and glamorous the surface is, it is just living in a harem where you fight and fight. Even if it is under one person and above ten thousand, it cannot avoid the trapping of those who have a heart. If there can be a concubine today, there will naturally be a second and third, she doesn't dare to bet, and she can't afford to gamble.
It would be nice to be lucky enough to live like an ordinary person outside the palace.
"Impossible!" Tang Yunzhao was completely angry, he threw his sleeves and left, without looking back, as if he was angry.
Does this woman understand how important she is to him, why does he want to leave again and again, he doesn't allow it!
The maid guarding the door saw that the Son of Heaven was angry, and hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy, Tang Yunzhao threw off his dragon robe and left Fengluan Palace. Yang Chun was unspeakably uncomfortable, and the feeling of powerlessness gradually spread throughout his body.
In the evening, the table was full of sumptuous dinners, but she did not know how to eat them.
There were a few lazy maids behind the door who were whispering, "Have you heard, the emperor is staying in the palace of Concubine Liang tonight, Concubine Liang is favored!"
"Really? I thought the emperor would come to our palace today. β
"Don't you know, the queen made the emperor angry today, and it's strange that the emperor can come. By the way, our mothers won't fall out of favor, right?"
"Shhhh β
The palace maids were worried that she would fall out of favor, and because she fell out of favor, they fell into the dust with their masters. Yang Chun behind the curtain pursed her lips tightly, she sat in front of the bed, and suddenly wanted to cry aggrieved in her heart.
Xiao Liuli stretched out her hand: "Queen Mother, hug!"
She held back her tears, opened her hand and hugged Xiao Liuli to the bed, patting her back gently. It's just that the sadness in her heart is endless, and she can't help but start to feel sad.
Like a bird living in a cage, the cage is luxurious and the feed is abundant, but this bird cannot fly in the sky. She longs for the outside world, even if there is no fine food and clothing outside, and there is no pampering. It doesn't matter anymore, she just doesn't want to be so tired.
Xiao Liuli was a little puzzled, she felt that the queen mother was weird today, as if she was sad, so she also used her little hand to pat Yang Chun's back.
The little hands are white and tender, and they are particularly cute when they are gently patted, and she comforts: "The queen mother is not afraid, I am here!"
"Well, the queen mother is not afraid. She hugged Xiao Liuli with pity, and finally found a little comfort in the silence of the night.
