Chapter 1: Bai Luan (17)
There was still an hour before the palace banquet began, and the ministers brought their wives and children to the palace in advance, and the female dependents were led by the inner supervisor to the imperial garden to meet the queen. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The winter garden has no depression, the imperial garden is planted with seasonal plums, sea pomegranates, at this time it is the flowering season, blooming brightly, clusters of flowers are really blooming, making this winter become colorful, like a famous painting. In this picture, the young and beautiful girls are more delicate and gorgeous than flowers, for a while, like a hundred flowers blooming, competing for beauty, as if all the beautiful colors in Bailuan City gathered here, beautiful like clouds.
The so-called beauty gathers, there will be a competition in color, and the royal garden is now like a beauty contest.
Xiaoxue was invited by the crown princess to enter the palace, and when she entered the garden, the first thing she saw was the two graceful and luxurious court beauties sitting in the center, and the beautiful woman in purple was the concubine who was deeply favored by the emperor - Hua Jin. As far as the eye can see, the garden is full of beautiful and wonderful people, which are the beauties that men compete to please, and they are the hot choice of the daughters-in-law of each family, but the concubine only sits there, surrounded by warblers and swallows, and can't hide her brilliance.
When people, this is a phenomenon before Xiaoxue came, as soon as Xiaoxue came, the pattern changed, here is no longer a concubine who dominates everyone, the most beautiful woman here has become two people.
The palace was not allowed to step into the daughter of a businessman, and the qualifications were not enough, but the status of the Han family was very special, not only did the nominal idle position on the top of the head, the emperor had always favored him, and even with the Han family, there were some special favors that others could not ask for, and entering and leaving the palace at will was one of them.
Therefore, when Xiaoxue swaggered into the imperial garden without being led, everyone's eyes were on her, envious, disdainful, jealous, and disdainful...... There are all kinds of eyes, and these eyes on one person will definitely catch people off guard, but Han Liangxue is not an ordinary person.
She doesn't care what they think of herself, anyway, she is used to it, for herself, their eyes are like commonplace, it doesn't matter if they have it or not, they are all dispensable, and they are not knives, they don't hurt or itch when they are pierced on the body, it doesn't matter.
Women are always cautious, and they can't see that others are better than themselves.
She has become the target of public criticism because of her identity, and for a few years, these girls have always regarded her as a common hostile target, and collaborated to orchestrate her behind her back, making her reputation in Bailuan City very stinky, and even the Han family was humiliated.
Hmph, who said that ancient women were as gentle as water and jasper, and their small belly and chicken intestines were more than real sluts. She hates intrigue house fighting dramas the most, this palace city is the real gladiatorial arena, who sinks and who floats is all based on scheming, and there is a bloodless place.
My sister is right, sometimes, the bloodless battlefield is the most cruel and ruthless, because you have no idea who will laugh one second and cry the other second by those treacherous undercurrents.
Some dangers are invisible, but that doesn't mean they don't exist.
For example, a woman's jealousy.
Xiaoxue wore a formal dress today, a blue and white long skirt wrapped around a slender tall body, a red silk waist, blue, red and white, elegant and demure, the blonde hair that fell down was particularly dazzling under the sunset, and the jasper hairpin flowers were small and exquisite, embellished in the hair, making her more and more delicate and lovely as small jasper.
The ladies stared at her intently, their eyes unabashedly amazed.
In the garden, the concubine has already captivated the country and the city, and now there is a heavenly girl who is clear and jade, and everyone is not feeling good. Today's palace banquet is full of famous young talents in the world, who carefully dress themselves in order to stand out from the crowd and enter the eyes of those who are extremely noble. The concubine is a concubine in the palace, no matter how beautiful she is, she is not a threat, but Xiaoxue is different, she has appearance, family background, talent, everything, like a pearl in the sea, the night starlight, which one can they compare?
As long as she is there, they have little chance to shine.
Xiaoxue turned a blind eye to those hostile gazes, and under their gaze, she came to the stone table surrounded by everyone, and smiled toothily at Rong Guifei: "Long time no see, Hua Guifei, it's been good lately, I wanted to come to see you after my sister came back, but I was too busy and forgot." ”
"I didn't expect Xiaoxue to be thinking about the palace, what's the matter? Now, I have time to enter the palace to see the crown princess. Hua Jin's naturally watery red pupils looked at Xiaoxue, and her face bloomed like a flower.
"Well, you're right, I'm here to see Hanaqi. Xiaoxue crossed her hands on her hips, shook her head and said: "She has been sending invitations to her sister this month, and you also know that my sister's temper is helpless if she doesn't want to see anyone." I don't know what happened to Hua Qi's sister, maybe she was worried about the dismissal of an official last time. She blinked and looked at the concubine with a provocative glint in her eyes.
Hua Jin lowered her eyes, and the corners of her mouth sparkled with a peerless smile, "The eldest lady's handwriting has always been so big that it makes people's hearts palpitate, and the shocking effect is amazing." Among the businessmen in this world, she is the only one who dares to clean up the people in the court. The words were plain, but no one noticed that her jade hand hidden under her sleeve clenched her fists tightly.
Xiaoxue did it on purpose, and others didn't know about it, but she heard a very interesting thing from Anan. Yan Mingzhi, who was imprisoned, was King Ping's person, and this King Ping was one of the followers of Concubine Rong when she did not enter the palace, since she entered the palace, they had been in close contact in private, and this matter was very tight, no one knew, but the Han family was not a person of this era, who could see those dark and dirty things better than them, there was probably no one in the world.
Yan Mingzhi was a pawn sent by Huajin to the Golden Empire to be a spy in the past, she dared to do something about the Golden Empire, and her sister dared to tear down her dark line and let her die.
"My family is just a merchant, only doing business, not playing anything else. Xiaoxue smiled and bent in her voice.
"The eldest lady hasn't seen her for a long time, and since you're here, Xiaoxue, she'll come too. Hua Jin rolled up her sleeves, her red lips were extremely delicate, the golden flowers on her head were dazzling, her red pupils turned slightly, she looked at the queen on the upper seat, and said, "The queen hasn't seen the eldest lady of the Han family for a few years, so she must want to see her too." ”
"......" the most honorable woman of Dayin, Queen Xuanyuan. This noble lady who is over forty years old and decrepit, although she has a noble status, her expression is gloomy, and she is not as radiant and glamorous as a noblewoman. Hearing the concubine talking to herself, her dull gray eyes just moved, her tone was tired, and she said, "What the noble lady said is that the palace banquet is about to start, and the palace has no intention of thinking about it." ”
The ladies were slightly stunned, listening to this, is the queen going to Guangling Palace?
However, Xuanyuan had no intention of leaving.
Everyone thought about it, and it suddenly became clear. The emperor handed over the power of the six palaces in the red palace to her, and the queen was just the lord of the harem.
The palace is unpredictable, the concubine is endlessly favored, everyone looks at her, and the ladies now only have the noble lady in their eyes, how can he take the queen's dignity to heart.
Xiaoxue is not a person who sees the wind and makes the rudder more inflammatory, no matter how much Huajin is favored, she is also a woman and a concubine. She has always scoffed at women who are dependent on men to show their power.
"The pomp of the concubine is really getting bigger and bigger, look at the time, the palace banquet is about to start. If you don't go, the people here won't go. She looked up at the darkening sky, and blessed the queen, the last bit of respect for the poor woman. "I still have something to find Hanaqi, so I won't tell you. With a wave of his hand, he ignored the concubines directly, and without looking at their ugly faces, he strode towards a palace gate in the depths of the garden.
Hua Jin leaned over, her feet hung down, the brocade clothes were flat behind her, looking at Xiaoxue's back, she still maintained a stunning smile on her face, and said softly: "Xiaoxue, you haven't replied to the palace yet, will the eldest lady come today?"
"How do I know if my sister will come, if you want to see her, you can go to her by yourself, but I still advise you, don't use those tricks in your palace on her, my sister is not in the mood to deal with you, die of this heart." Xiao Xue didn't look back, her footsteps didn't stop, her voice was slightly cold, and she didn't give a good look at the concubine of a country at all.
When she was far away, the ladies vented their anger and grievances for the concubine.
"It's just the daughter of a businessman, with such a high shelf, such a disgraceful person, and the upbringing of the Han family is nothing more than that. ”
"The concubine is kind-hearted, and an unruly woman like her is also worthy of talking to her mother. ”
"Even if you don't look at your identity, it's just that relying on His Majesty the Emperor's trust in the Han family, what's the big deal. ”
"I heard that Han Wen came back and let some people go to prison indiscriminately, it's really vicious, people did their best for their family, but they got such an end, sure enough, it's a family, and my sister is like this, coquettish, I don't know what to do. ”
"A pampered and arrogant person has never ended well, her temperament is placed on the palace banquet, and it depends on how she cocoons herself. ”
......
The ears chattered non-stop, Hua Jin's face was silent, still looking at the uninhabited palace gate, and he didn't open his mouth to stop these people's rude words, and let them arrange the Han family.
