Chapter 44, Midyear Festival
Wu Yashi saw that Concubine Tong seemed to be patient to the extreme, so she stepped forward and said: "It's hot, Concubine Niangniang didn't rest very well last night, if there is nothing to do, Sister Rong and Sister Jia are still ......."
Before Wu Yashi finished speaking, Zhao Yan interrupted her: "Sister De Concubine said that it was a hot day, and my sister has something to ask the concubine Niangniang." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Concubine Tong glared angrily and said, "What else is the matter with Concubine Jia?!"
Zhao Yan smiled and said: "The ice case of the concubine does not seem to have increased compared to before, dare to ask the concubine but forgot to mention the ice case of the concubine?"
Concubine Tong snorted lightly, "Jia Concubine has not yet performed the canonization ceremony, in the end, the name is not right! Not to mention that the ice is not as good as other uses, and the ice transported to the palace every day is not much, so Jia Concubine will only be in a few days." When the canonization ceremony is done, I will bring it up to you!" As she spoke, Concubine Tong also glanced at Wu Ya's family: "Concubine De is pregnant, and the ice example is still at the level of a nobleman!"
Zhao Yan said in her heart, sure enough, it was Concubine Tong who deliberately deducted it, and it was justifiably deducted. The official canonization will be at least a few months later, and it will almost be time to use charcoal by then!
Concubine De hurriedly smiled and said, "But the concubine is pitiful, afraid that I will attract the heat, so she has moved some of her own use to me." ”
So that's the case, I don't think Concubine Tong Guifei will dare to tell Wu Ya's stomach that something is wrong.
In this case, if you change others, there is really nothing to do, but Zhao Yan smiled: "The concubine's own body is not tight, but it is just ......"
Zhao Yan dragged out her tone, and said with a smile like a flower: "It's just that the emperor often goes to the palace of the concubines to stay overnight, if the concubines are not enough, the emperor is called to recruit the heat, and the concubines can't afford it!"
These words really angered Concubine Tong, "What, Concubine Jia is trying to use the emperor to press the palace?!"
Zhao Yan bowed on her knees, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "The concubine has no such intention! Last night, the emperor was at the concubine's place, and there was not enough ice in the dormitory. Or did the emperor send a message and ask someone to go to the ice warehouse to get some? If you don't believe in this, you can ask someone to inquire!"
Although Concubine Tong was angry, she also knew that Zhao Yan would never dare to lie to the emperor.
Concubine Rong smiled and comforted: "It's better for the concubine to bring up the ice example of the concubine, so as not to displease the emperor." ”
Concubine Rong's words were more like threats than consolation.
Since the death of Empress Xiaozhao, Concubine Tong Guifei has been the first person in the Six Palaces, and now she is threatened by two little concubines, and the anger and hatred in her heart can be imagined.
Concubine De sighed secretly, and hurriedly whispered: "Niangniang has always loved the emperor, why bother hurting the relationship with the emperor for this little thing?" - the same words of consolation, Concubine De's words are much more tactful and pleasant.
When Concubine Tong heard this, she finally endured this breath and said, "This palace will inform you about this!
The goal was achieved, and Zhao Yan was not happy to see Concubine Tong's stinky face here, so she bowed and left Jingren Palace with Concubine Rong.
As soon as the two of them walked out of the main hall, they heard a crisp sound behind them, and it must have been Concubine Tong who dropped the teacup in her hand.
The tea cup can be said to be the porcelain with the highest scrap rate in the palace. The concubines will have a cup of tea at hand when they have nothing to do, and if they are angry, they can drop it when they copy it, and it can't be easier.
In the inner hall, Wu Yashi looked at the broken porcelain on the ground, and had to comfort: "Niangniang, Jia Concubine is young and favored, and it is inevitable to be arrogant." It's useless for you to be angry. ”
Concubine Tong snorted coldly, "This palace is the head of the six palaces, and she is in charge of the power of the six palaces, can't she even hold her little concubine position?!"
Concubine De said: "She is rightly favored, if you pinch her, she will definitely sue the emperor when she turns around." In this way, even the emperor will think that you are not virtuous enough. ”
Concubine Tong was so angry that she gritted her teeth: "This little slut! For this little ice case, he actually slandered the emperor!!"
Concubine De saw that Concubine Tong was getting more and more angry, so she hurriedly said: "Niangniang is angry, so as not to hurt the phoenix body!"
Concubine Tong raised her head and glared at Concubine De fiercely, "You are pregnant with a dragon fetus to seal the concubine, she has only been in the palace for three months, and she is also a concubine!!
Concubine De hurriedly lowered her head and was silent.
Concubine Tong Guifei was still angry, and continued to reprimand angrily: "Even the Wei family pretended to be sick and took Qiao to lead the emperor up, why don't you learn?!"
Concubine De said in a low voice: "Although the Wei family led the emperor up, it made the empress dowager displeased, and the green head cards were withdrawn." ”
Concubine Tong snorted coldly: "That's what she deserves!!"
Concubine De hurriedly smiled and comforted: "Tomorrow is the Midyear Festival, and only Niangniang is qualified to accompany the emperor to Baohua Hall to pay respects." When the time comes, the mother will take the opportunity to invite the emperor to come up. The emperor will definitely come to Jingren Palace. ”
A faint look of smugness appeared on Concubine Tong's face: "You still need to say this!"
De Concubine glanced at the entire Lotus Sutra on the case again, and then asked cautiously: "Niangniang, ...... this scripture?"
Concubine Tong snorted coldly, and then ordered the eunuch beside her: "Take it down and burn the fire!"
Concubine De was stunned: "Niangniang, in case the emperor knows-"
Concubine Tong said lightly: "Even if the emperor asks, this palace has a rhetoric, so you don't need to worry about it!"
If it had been in the past, Concubine De would definitely have to dissuade Concubine Tong from acting so impulsively, but now, ...... Concubine De's heart moved, and she turned to say: "As long as the mother knows it, the concubine will be at ease." ”
The next day, Baohua Palace.
Kangxi was only wearing a plain green robe, he stood in front of the Buddha's golden body, looking at the magnificent Buddha statue, his face was full of amazement.
In the green tung smoker in the hall, sandalwood is burned, and the thick incense mist fills the entire Baohua Palace. The eunuchs in front of the emperor were all silent, and they didn't dare to interject indiscriminately.
After a while, the advisor of the imperial chief manager stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Tong has arrived." ”
Kangxi let out a long breath before saying, "Let her in!"
Concubine Tong is gorgeous, but she is also dressed up very plainly today. A light jade-colored hollow-patterned flag suit, covered with a wonderful lotus pattern snow satin shoulder, holding a bean green appreciation bottle in his hand, the bottle is full of snow-white first-blooming lotus flowers. appeared so plainly, but with a look of pity, it was a bit like Guanyin in white.
This appearance made Kangxi stunned, he still remembered, what he remembered was his biological mother Xilian, and people said that the emperor's mother looked like Guanyin. Even if the emperor is the queen mother, she doesn't like gorgeous and gorgeous clothes, nor does she like the embroidery patterns of flowers, but it is in line with Tong Jia's dress today.
Therefore, even if Concubine Tong Guifei is not like the Empress Dowager Xiaokang, it can't help but make Kangxi look stunned.
Concubine Tong stepped forward, bowed her knees, and said, "The concubine specially went to pick some fresh lotus flowers today to worship the Buddha, so she came late, and asked the emperor to forgive her sins." ”
Kangxi hurriedly stretched out his hand to help her up, and said softly: "It's not too late, it's early for me to come." He looked at the white lotus in the commodity, and couldn't help but praise: "The lotus has Buddha nature, and it is the most suitable to worship the Baohua Palace, you have a heart." ”
A touch of shyness appeared on Concubine Tong's cheeks, "It is the duty of the concubine to do her best for the Empress Dowager Xiaokang." ”
Kangxi nodded with satisfaction.
