Chapter Ninety-Six: The Same Thing
Since Emperor Yan ordered to go to the Ghost Valley for autumn hunting, the concubines in the harem have been actively preparing things for the royal use. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Concubine Shen didn't go to participate in the autumn hunt, what's going on?" Qi Guifei asked suspiciously.
"Niangniang, I heard that the injury on Concubine Shen's face has not completely healed, so I won't go to autumn hunting with the emperor this time. Yuxi told Concubine Qi what she heard: "Concubine Shen was scratched by the eldest prince's parrot, it seems that the injury on her face is not light, and the slave maid heard that every time the emperor went to visit her in the past half a month, she closed the door. ”
"Her appearance is one of the best in the harem, so naturally she doesn't want the emperor to see her ugly appearance after being injured. Concubine Qi smiled meaningfully: "What's more, if she doesn't have that face, she won't get the emperor's favor at all, so she should take a special fancy to her." ”
"I just don't know what she thinks when the parrot raised by the eldest prince scratches her. ”
"Niangniang, I heard that the parrot of the eldest prince that day was suddenly stimulated to attack Concubine Shen. Although it is the pet raised by the eldest prince, in the final analysis, this matter cannot be blamed entirely on the eldest prince. And the emperor and the queen mother have already appeased Concubine Shen, presumably she can't say anything. ”
Even if Concubine Shen is a favorite concubine, she is not facing an ordinary concubine, but the emperor's son and the queen's concubine, and her identity is much more noble than her. Speaking of which, it's all the fault of a beast, no matter how uncomfortable she is, she can't get along with the eldest prince.
Moreover, I heard that the emperor had ordered people to kill the parrot.
"But this Concubine Shen is really generous, she was injured for no reason, and she didn't shout a word of grievance. ”
Concubine Qi sneered: "What do you know, her move is called retreat as advance." ”
was injured so much, but she didn't say a word, which made it even more obvious that Concubine Shen was thoughtful. Don't look at Concubine Shen's usual dignified, gentle and generous appearance, but it doesn't mean that she has no scheming. On the contrary, her scheming can be high.
Otherwise, just with a similar appearance, he can't dominate the emperor's favor for so many years.
Just like this time, although he didn't say anything and didn't shout grievances, because of this, it would make the emperor pity him even more. Presumably, after she recovered from her injury, the emperor's favor for her reached a higher level.
Yuxi nodded and said, "Niangniang, this time Concubine Shen will not follow the emperor to autumn hunting, I am afraid that many people will be ready to move." ”
But no, where Concubine Shen is, there is no chance for other concubines to appear. Presumably, many people will do everything possible to find opportunities to take advantage of the situation and attract the emperor's attention.
"Niangniang, you ......" Yuxi was about to speak, but Concubine Qi interrupted her: "Put away your little thoughts." Those little tricks that can't be put on the table, this palace disdains to use them. They are not qualified to shoot with this palace. ”
How could Concubine Qi not know Yuxi's thoughts, she wanted to take this opportunity to regain the emperor's favor.
But after so many years, her heart has long been as calm as water, and she doesn't want to fight anymore. Besides, even if she wants to fight for it, she will fight for it openly, and will not use those indiscriminate means.
"Niangniang, it's the slave who has overstepped the rules. Yuxi said remorsefully.
How arrogant and arrogant her own mother is, how can she be the same as those concubines in the palace? And if she took advantage of Concubine Shen's absence to attract the emperor's attention, wouldn't she admit that Niangniang was worse than Concubine Shen?
Concubine Shen, who is qualified to be compared with Niangniang.
"Let them toss. Concubine Qi was silent after speaking.

Kunning Palace
"Concubine Shen is not going to hunt in autumn?" Queen Liu said expressionlessly, making it impossible to see through her thoughts at this time.
"Niangniang, will Concubine Shen hold a grudge against the eldest prince?" said Xing'er worriedly, her mind full of things about parrots.
Although the status of the eldest prince is noble, Concubine Shen is now quite favored. If so, if Concubine Shen has a grudge against Niangniang and the eldest prince, Niangniang has another fierce rival in the palace.
"Shut up. Queen Liu scolded: "That beast hurt people because of her cruel nature, what is the matter with Guan Hao'er? Not to mention that the palace has already asked people to apologize to her, what can she say." ”
In order to appease her, the emperor not only asked Hao'er to kill the parrot that Hao'er couldn't put down, but also grounded Hao'er for three days. And she couldn't sleep because of these things.
Hao'er has already known her mistake and been punished, can she still hold a grudge against Hao'er?
"Niangniang, it's the slave who has said a lot, and I ask the mother to forgive her sins. Knowing that she had said the wrong thing, Xing'er hurriedly apologized.
"Don't let this palace hear these words in the future. Empress Liu commanded sharply.
Her mouth said so, but her heart was agitated. The emperor has already found out about the parrot, and it is indeed Hao'er's hand. And the reason turned out to be because Hao'er couldn't get used to Concubine Shen's monopoly on the holy favor.
Although she and the emperor suppressed this matter, they didn't know if Concubine Shen would know the truth.
She never thought that her Hao'er would have such a mind at such a young age, and Concubine Shen was not lightly injured this time.
The emperor's disappointment in Hao'er is obvious, and Hao'er's status in the emperor's mind must have plummeted.
Not only the emperor, but even she was disappointed, she had always cultivated Hao'er as a prince, but she didn't expect such a mistake to happen halfway.
Fortunately, Hao'er is still young, and with more guidance in the future, he can reshape his image in the emperor's mind.
"Niangniang, this time you and Concubine Qi both followed the emperor to the Ghost Valley, and the power in the palace will temporarily fall on Concubine Shen's head, but it is cheaper for her. Apricot said.
Queen Liu replied unhappily: "What are you talking about, most of the concubines in the palace have followed, and there must be someone to take care of the affairs of the harem." has her to help the palace solve problems, and the palace can't ask for it. ”
It's just to help me take care of the affairs of the harem for the time being, so what's there to be afraid of. She is still the master of the first palace, and when she comes back from the autumn hunt, the affairs in the palace will still come back to her, and no one can take it away.
Moreover, letting Concubine Shen temporarily take care of the affairs of the palace can be regarded as another appeasement to her injury.
Realizing that she had said the wrong thing again, Apricot shut up stupidly.
Settle in
"Master, the third prince is here again, and now he is waiting for you in the main hall. Ruri replied calmly.
Since the last Zichan incident, the three princes have come to find their masters every now and then, and they are no longer strange to be slaves.
But it's also strange to say, it stands to reason that the three princes and their own masters can't get too close, but no one stops the three princes every time they come. Later, when I thought about it, maybe the emperor also acquiesced, and others didn't say anything gossip, so they naturally didn't have extra thoughts.
Su Zixu was reading the book intently, and after listening to Liuli's words, he took the book and went to the main hall.
"Moon Niangniang. As soon as the third prince saw Su Zixu, he pounced and grabbed Su Zixu's skirt.
Su Zixu clasped his hands and pretended to be puzzled: "Why are you here?"
"Yue Niangniang, I heard that my father is going to autumn hunting, and Yao'er is also going to follow, will Yue Niangniang go with me?"
Su Zixu pursed her lips and shook her head: "Yue Niangniang is not going." ”
"Why?" the third prince wrinkled his little face and disagreed: "Why didn't Yue Niangniang go?"
Seeing that the third prince was successfully deceived by himself, although Su Zixu wanted to laugh in his heart, he still replied seriously on the surface: "I'm too tired, so Yue Niangniang doesn't want to go." ”
The third prince lowered his head, as if he was thinking about something, a little face, not to mention how tangled, after a while, he raised his head and said dryly: "That Yao'er is not going either." ”
