Chapter 244: Punished
On the way out of the tour, everything seems to be a little rushed, everyone's words and deeds all revolve around the emperor alone, as long as the emperor has an order, no matter what you are doing, you must be in place as soon as possible.
Wu Xiuning, a Baylor's Shu Fujin, naturally has no chance to appear in front of the emperor, but the ladies who accompany the car can summon the female dependents brought by the prince and the minister at will, although Wu Xiuning has not been summoned, but Niu Colu unexpectedly cast the eyes of the concubine, and in the past few days to the palace, he was actually summoned twice, which has to be said to be surprising.
After the quota was finalized, Wu Xiuning also analyzed with Mama Yao who helped Niu Co Lu's family, no, it should be said that Niu Co Lu cooperated with someone to get this opportunity. Although Wu Xiuning didn't make any moves, secretly Mama Yao and Luwu had been probing and paying attention to the ladies in the backyard, not to mention that she knew about other people's actions, but at least she still knew most of the actions, but in this case, Niu Colu, who had the least chance of winning, became the final winner.
Wu Xiuning didn't know much about the situation in the palace, after all, the people of Mama Yao's generation had retired one after another, even if there were apprentices or grandchildren, it was impossible to have all the information, not to mention that they were still suppressed at the beginning.
Wu Xiuning didn't force Mama Yao to find out the news of the harem, but kept watching coldly to see who would be the first to come forward, but she didn't want to just arrive at the palace, and this secret concubine would come up.
Since the death of the Empress Dowager, the concubines from the Han Army Banner in the palace have gradually increased, there are regular drafts, and there are also concubines like concubines who have not been presented through the draft, most of them are fleeting, and they have fallen out of favor without even remembering their appearance and name, but this concubine, because of the relationship between her uncle is the emperor's confidant, has gained a little more favor, but she can go all the way to the concubine and give birth to three little brothers, which is enough to show that this woman has good means.
The women of the harem, beauty is only one of them, and there is no beauty at all, a character like a concubine, she doesn't think it's harmless and naΓ―ve and only believes in fate, so she will help Niu Co Lu come out, either she has an agreement with Niu Co Lu, or she has cooperation with someone in the palace, or someone in the house has reached a consensus with her, in short, it will not be this reason for nonsense.
But Wu Xiuning doesn't care, now Yinzhen is valued by Kangxi, even if there is the prince in front, the eighth elder brother and others behind, no one can ignore his existence as before, on the contrary, many people are trying to win him over, and even curry favor with him, in this case, she doesn't think that the concubine will be stupid enough to directly confront her.
Yes, the concubine is a concubine, a mother, or the emperor's new favorite, and she is just a concubine, there is no possibility of comparison between the two, but don't forget that it is Yinzhen herself standing behind her.
It's really nothing to embarrass her, but the premise is not to let the master not get off the stage, and she has experienced so many things, it is precisely that she has become the character who can't stand the grievances and likes to make people unable to get off the stage.
On this day, the sky was gray, with a hint of breeze, and it looked as if it would rain at any time, but half a day passed without a drop of rain.
Hongyu was taken out to play by the ninth elder brother, Yinzhen went to the emperor's side, Wu Xiuning was bored in the house alone, so he took the green wuwu around for a walk, it was difficult to go out, if it wasn't for the limited identity and the staff was too miscellaneous, she was afraid that she would go around the next day after arriving at the palace, why wait until now.
Compared with the Forbidden City, which is indeed majestic and exquisite, the palace is more delicate and soft, and it is easier for people to relax, but the heavens always like to play tricks on people, and when you are most happy, you will meet the people you least want to meet.
"The concubine gave Wushu Fujin a greeting. Niu Colu took a few steps forward and shook his handkerchief to say goodbye.
Wu Xiuning turned around, her eyes swept over Niu Colu's and finally fell on the woman not far from her, dressed in a Xiangfei-colored flag suit, exquisite makeup, delicate face and weak posture, it was really no different from the memory, the only difference was probably that she was much younger, after all, Wu Xiuning in the previous life was not qualified to meet the concubines in the palace at this time.
"The concubine asks for peace to the concubine. Wu Xiuning didn't seem to see Niu Colu's family, and shook his handkerchief and asked for peace at the concubine.
The concubine looked at Wu Xiuning, who greeted her, and a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes, she thought that all the beauties in the world had arrived in the harem, as for herself, she looked good, although she was not the most beautiful, but she also occupied a place in the harem, but when she saw Wu Xiuning today, she knew that there were still people in the world who could be beautiful like this.
It's no wonder that these four Baylors are going to snub the wives and concubines in the back yard, and if they change someone, they may be more obvious than him. His eyes swept to Niu Colu, who had been squatting on the side, and his originally open lips pursed, and then he said: "It is said that there is a fairy-like beauty hidden in the backyard of Sibeile, and this palace thought it was an exaggeration, but now I know that I am lonely and unheard of." β
Wu Xiuning saw that the concubine didn't scream, and sneered in her heart, and then stood up and said: "Niangniang is too famous, how can the posture of the concubine Pu Liu be worthy of the praise of the mother, but it is the name of the mother's gentleness and generosity, and the concubine has heard of her name for a long time." β
It is the rule for the low-ranking to salute and ask for peace from the high-ranking part, Wu Xiuning ignored Niu Colu's not deliberately embarrassing her, but beating her, obviously the concubine present was the highest, but she was one step ahead of her to ask for peace, if this falls in the eyes of others, I am afraid that she will think that she is rude and does not understand the rules, she will not expose it on the spot, but she will not give up easily, but I didn't expect this secret concubine to use the same way to deal with her.
"Is it true? The gentleness of this palace has always been only for those who obey the rules and etiquette, and when you encounter this unruly palace, you will only be dealt with according to the rules, because you are a first offense, this palace will only punish you to kneel in this garden for an hour. β
"Concubine Xie Mi Niangniang taught, and the concubine remembered it in her heart. When Wu Xiuning heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he even stopped Lu Wu and pursed his lips.
She thought of all the possibilities, but she didn't expect the concubine to face her so directly.
The concubine looked at Wu Xiuning, who knelt down indifferently, and her heart tightened for no reason, she thought that Wu Xiuning's beauty must be an impulsive character, or she had been spoiled a long time ago, but the fact is that she advanced and retreated appropriately, and faced honor and disgrace calmly, she has seen such a person, and in the end, she soared into the sky, so this Wu Xiuning in front of her, will it be the same?
She pursed her lips, as if she regretted her actions.
Niu Colu squatted aside, and saw the expression on her face clearly, in order not to let the concubine defect, she said: "Niangniang is favored by the emperor, and she is reasonable in case of trouble, and others are naturally convinced." β
The concubine's eyes flashed, and her face was a little trance, as the emperor's favorite concubine, her honor and disgrace were tied to Kangxi's hands, and others said that she was favored, but she knew that she was not as good as in the past, and this time she could come with the car, but it was just the light of eighteen, otherwise she was good, sixteen or seventeen, I am afraid that she will not be able to compete for the concubines of this harem. Besides, these four Baylors, although they are not the choice of the future prince, but they are highly valued by the emperor, and the prince and others are also very dependent, and the future is promising, and her son is still young, how to be afraid of the future depends on the attitude of the new monarch, the more she thinks about it, the more she feels that her actions today are too radical, but the words have been spoken, and she is afraid that it will damage her identity if she takes it back.
As soon as she thought of this, the concubine had no intention of worrying, and the matter had come to this point, she could only hope that Niu Co Lu could succeed, "Okay, let's go back!" After saying that, she glanced at Niu Co Lu and left with her and the palace maid behind her.
Lu Wu looked at their departing backs, and then looked at Wu Xiuning, who was kneeling beside him, and said softly: "Master, will we just keep kneeling like this?"
Wu Xiuning raised her head slightly, and said with a deep look in her eyes: "Didn't the secret concubine Niangniang say? punish me to kneel here for an hour, and that will be an hour." β
Lu Wu was not angry in her heart, but the master said so, so she naturally could only kneel with the master.
Yin Zhen, who has been by Kangxi's side since the morning, watched the brothers behave in front of Kangxi, but he didn't compete, he stood quietly aside, if Kangxi didn't ask him, he wouldn't speak, he was more restrained and low-key, but it was more conspicuous and more Kangxi's heart.
After the prince abolished the prince, his mentality collapsed, and the power of the entire princeling party was not to say that it was divided, but it was also reshuffled, coupled with the fact that others were pressing step by step, the prince, who had reached a dead end, naturally became more radical, and acted more unscrupulously than in the past, even if Kangxi was frequently reprimanded, he did not repent.
This time, the main creators of Kowloon have almost arrived, Kangxi is full of sparks when he is present, and it will be even more exciting if Kangxi is not there.
Yinzhen was happy to see it happen, but because of his own plans, he had to take a back seat and watch the play coldly.
But the play is not so good-looking, and every time she finishes coping with it, Yinzhen is also full of exhaustion.
Back in his courtyard, Yinzhen waved away the maid at the door, walked in, and when he arrived in the inner room, he heard a gasp through the screen, and then heard the people in the room talking.
The voice full of worry should be green, it was the big girl next to Wu Xiuning, who often helped Wu Xiuning with errands, Yinzhen had some impressions, and looked through the screen, and saw her sitting on a low couch, as if she was helping Wu Xiuning rub her legs, "Master, you bear with it, the bruises on this leg are not rubbed, and it is easy to hurt the bones." β
Wu Xiuning sat on the bed, and said softly and softly: "How can it be so serious as you say, the people in the palace kneel every day, if you really want to do this, the people in this palace are afraid that they won't walk." β
"How can the minions be on a par with their masters. Seeing Wu Xiuning's indifferent look, Lu Wu couldn't help but cry out of his throat: "The master has never suffered this kind of crime since he was a child, if it weren't for Niu Colu Gege relying on the secret concubine to provoke the master, the master would not be punished by the secret concubine, in the final analysis, she is jealous of the master's favor." β
Yin Zhen behind the screen heard this, his eyebrows were furrowed, he was not surprised that Niu Colu was provoking trouble, but the concubine's hand was stretched out a little long.
Wu Xiuning sighed lightly, and was about to speak, but who knew that Lu Wu was just using force, she couldn't help but 'hiss', and then took a breath and said, "Light." β
Yin Zhen behind the screen listened, his heart instantly tightened, and he couldn't care about anything else, so he strode over the screen and walked in, and asked with concern, "But the injury is very serious?"
