Chapter 49, the beauty is irritable
Today, I want to leave my cousin to share dinner, so I specially instructed the eunuch in charge to prepare more exquisite and delicious dishes. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
An Concubine looked at the table of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and couldn't help but quip: "It can be seen that you are favored, and you can eat whatever you want!"
Zhao Yan was slightly embarrassed, and hurriedly sandwiched a shrimp into An Concubine's bowl, "Cousin, try this Longjing shrimp." In summer, things that are too greasy don't taste good, and this shrimp is quite fresh. β
Concubine An put it in her mouth, and after chewing it carefully, her eyes lit up, "The skills of the cooks in your palace have grown a lot!" - when copying the Lotus Sutra before, if Kangxi didn't come to stay overnight, my cousin would often have dinner here.
Hu Qingxi hurriedly reported: "If you return to Concubine An, this is the craft of the new chef Liu Duan. β
Concubine An was stunned, "Why is this name a little familiar to me?"
Hu Qingxi smiled and said: "Liu Duan used to be a eunuch in the imperial dining room, and a few days ago, the emperor assigned her to come to Yanxi Palace as a eunuch. β
Zhao Yan glanced at Hu Qingxi: "What a mouth!" - it seems that she is showing off to her cousin!
An Concubine's smile did not decrease, "You are loved by the emperor, I naturally only have to be happy." The cooks in this imperial dining room are all skilled. Concubine De is pregnant, but she doesn't see the emperor rewarding her as a cook. β
chattering like this, eating more and more delicious, Zhao Yan also had a great appetite, and used half a bowl of japonica rice more than usual.
On July 20 of the 18th year of Kangxi, Cining Palace asked for peace.
Because she was favored by Kangxi, she was already able to be on par with the good nobles in the bed, so the Empress Dowager became more and more satisfied with her, "You copied the Lotus Sutra before, and you really worked hard." β
Thinking that the death of the Empress Dowager Xiaokang was inseparable from the Empress Dowager, Zhao Yan couldn't help but be a little nervous, and when she saw the Empress Dowager's gentle expression, she was a little relieved, so she hurriedly whispered: "This is the duty of a concubine." β
In this matter, Concubine Tong fell out of favor, but Zhao Yan got good, how willing Concubine Tong was, her silver teeth were about to be crushed in an instant, only to hear Concubine Tong say in a yin voice: "Concubine Tong is indeed very attentive! Not only for the Empress Dowager Xiaokang, but also for the good nobles to help!"
Hearing this, the Empress Dowager frowned slightly.
Concubine Tong saw that the Empress Dowager was already displeased, so she continued to add to the fire, she said sarcastically: "Please be safe before, the good nobles were drenched in the rain halfway, thanks to the concubine Jia borrowed an umbrella! It seems that the concubine and the noble people are very close!"
Sure enough, the Empress Dowager's brows furrowed a little deeper.
The good nobleman standing behind Hui Concubine looked stricken, and Ai Ai said, "Jia Concubine Niangniang is just a poor concubine, so she borrowed an umbrella for the palace people to give to the concubine." β
- Wei's words deliberately explained that what Zhao Yan lent her was just an umbrella for the palace people. Let the concubine use the palace man's umbrella and savor it, it really has a little bit of humiliation.
It's just that on that day, Zhao Yan said in advance that it was nothing. The good nobleman deliberately did not explain this. The intention is naturally to help Zhao Yan exonerate.
When Concubine Hui heard this, she couldn't help but purse the corners of her mouth, as if she was disgusted with her stinginess.
Zhao Yan said in her heart, this Wei is really smart and very knowledgeable. Zhao Yan smiled, "The Empress Dowager, the concubines are friendly with the good nobles, and the emperor is also very happy." β
Hearing this, the Empress Dowager really stretched her brows, and nodded again and again: "Concubine Jia is smart and sensible, no wonder the emperor likes you." β
The Empress Dowager intended to arrange for the newcomers to be favored by Kangxi, and to be favored by the Wei family. Zhao Yan's move just pleased the emperor, and the empress dowager naturally had only happiness.
Zhao Yan looked shy: "To embarrass the emperor's favored person is to embarrass the emperor." As she spoke, Zhao Yan looked at Concubine Tong and said with a smile: "Concubine Tong Guifei, you said yes, right?"
- She was referring to both the good and the noble, and to herself. It is also a hint to Concubine Tong, eldest sister, can you not find fault with me in the future? Anyway, if you find fault with me, Boss Kang will be unhappy, why do you bother?
However, Concubine Tong was annoyed, obviously not listening to her words, but she was afraid that she would think she was showing off her grace!
Brain waves are not at the same frequency, it's really sad!!
She felt that she needed to have a good chat with Concubine Tong.
Walking out of Cining Palace, Zhao Yan hurriedly followed the footsteps of Concubine Tong and said, "It seems that the emperor hasn't been to Jingren Palace for some days. β
Zhao Yan said this calmly, but Tong Guifei regarded it as Zhao Yan's sarcasm, and suddenly became angry: "What? Jia Concubine is very proud?!! this palace is the only concubine in the palace, and the most respected person in the six palaces, you ?!!are just a little concubine!!
Her yelling, very unfortunately, also heard into Niu Hulu's ears, Niu Hulu's face was extremely unhappy, what does she call her Tong is the most respected person?!! is this palace more humble than your Tong family?!!
Zhao Yan naturally noticed Niu Hulu's unhappiness, so she just didn't see it, and hurriedly explained to Concubine Tong: "The concubine misunderstood the meaning of the concubine." The concubine just wanted to say that the concubine had been in the palace for many years and was close to the emperor. Don't you still understand why the emperor is so angry that he hasn't come for many days?"
Concubine Tong sneered: "Isn't it your concubine who blew the wind on the pillow?!"
Zhao Yan looked innocent: "The concubine didn't complain to the emperor. β
Concubine Tong's face became more and more cold: "Do you think this palace will believe you?!"
Zhao Yan sighed helplessly: "The concubine might as well think calmly, if it's just because the concubines are jealous, why would the emperor snub the concubine so much?"
As soon as these words came out, Concubine Tong looked suspicious, but she still looked at Zhao Yan suspiciously, "Then tell me, why did the emperor snub the palace like this?!"
Zhao Yan smiled and said, "The emperor's anger is not because of the concubines. It was the concubine who made a big mistake. β
Concubine Tong couldn't help but get angry again, "What's wrong with this palace?!!"
Zhao Yan said lightly: "Isn't it a big mistake to bully the king?!"
The four words "bullying the king" smashed heavily on Concubine Tong's heart, making her whole person stunned.
The matter of Baohua Hall is no longer a secret, and when Niu Hulu heard this, he couldn't help but hide his lips and smile: "Oh, Sister Tong is so bold, even the emperor dares to deceive!
Concubine Tong shook, stumbled, and almost fell to the ground, "bullying the king......"
Zhao Yan smiled and said, "Isn't it? It's because the concubine herself didn't think about this at all, right?"
Concubine Tong bit her lip, her face was panicked, "This palace, this palace ......"
Zhao Yan said again: "Such a great crime of bullying the king, if you change the concubine next to you, where is it as simple as being snubbed? The emperor can be said to be extremely lenient to the concubine. ββThese words can be said to have given Concubine Tong enough face.
After hearing this, Concubine Tong didn't say a word, and went away, apparently going back to write a plea.
Niu Hulu Guifei Shi Shiran walked over, "How did Concubine Jia wake her up so kindly?"
Zhao Yan owed a bow, "After all, Concubine Tong is the most respected person in the Six Palaces, and the concubine really doesn't want to be her enemy." β
Hearing this, Niu Hulu's face became more and more unhappy, this unhappiness was obviously unhappy with Concubine Tong.
Zhao Yan continued: "Niangniang actually understands people, Concubine Tong is the cousin of the emperor's relatives, even if she makes a mistake, the emperor will not punish her severely. Even if she commits the honor of bullying the king, she is still a noble concubine, and she is still in charge of the affairs of the six palaces. β
Hearing this, Niu Hulu's expression was inevitably gloomy, "She made a big mistake, and she was just snubbed." And this palace has no fault, but it has been snubbed by the emperor!"
Zhao Yan looked at Niu Hulu's gorgeous face, and her heart was also suspicious, even if it was for the sake of balance, it was inconvenient for Kangxi to favor Niu Hulu's more, but he didn't have to be so cold...... I really don't know what Boss Kang is thinking.
Zhao Yan said: "The concubine also thinks it is strange, Niangniang's country is beautiful, why is it not pleasing to the emperor?
After all, it is normal for Niu Hulu to be a little arrogant, but if you are arrogant in front of Boss Kang, it will naturally be unpleasant.
Niu Hulu naturally understood what Zhao Yan meant, and immediately said angrily: "In private, how can this palace disobey the emperor's ?!! with a word" The words were full of resentment.
Zhao Yan wondered, "If that's the case, then the concubine really can't figure it out." β
Niu Hulu said hatefully: "Not only can't you figure it out, but this palace is even more incomprehensible!"
Zhao Yan thought for a moment, and then said: "After all, the concubine is an outsider, if there is a chance, the concubine might as well ask the emperor in person." β
When Niu Hulu heard this, she was even more annoyed, and she was so angry that she stomped her feet again and again: "Why didn't this palace ask the emperor, but the emperor only left the sentence 'You know it yourself'! Hmph!!This palace knows something?!! this palace is not a roundworm in his stomach!!"
Zhao Yan: "Forehead ......"
This master seems to be about to go berserk.
Zhao Yan had a black line on her face, and said weakly: "That, the hour is not early, the concubine will leave first." β
Niu Hulu told her to slip away, and immediately exhaled angrily: "Get out!
The beauty is irritable and can't be provoked!!
Zhao Yan smeared oil on the soles of her feet and immediately ran away.
