Chapter 63: Concubine Shu
The carriage stopped, and Qin Ji personally helped Yu Mingzhi get out of the car.
Gonggong Liu looked at their affectionate appearance, and smiled helplessly: "The queen mother summoned Miss Guo to say something about the girl's family, and the Qin Sheren are afraid that it is not very convenient." β
This sentence means that the emperor is not present.
Qin Ji stroked Yu Mingzhi's hand lightly, and walked forward with her, a gentle smile always hung on his face, and he comforted softly: "The queen mother was born in a small family, she is kind and kind, there is no arrogance, you just need to do your best to be polite, and the rest should be chatting with the wives of ordinary people." β
Yu Mingzhi nodded and laughed at him instead: "You really think I am Guo Baozhi." β
Qin Ji smiled.
Father-in-law Liu hunched his waist behind them, although he couldn't hear the words of conversation, but judging from the smile on his face, their fiancΓ©e was like glue.
He hesitated for a while, and seeing that the queen's frame was not far from them, he trotted two steps to follow, and said in a low voice: "The emperor suddenly brought Concubine Zhao Shu, and she is in the queen's car at this moment." β
A sharp light flashed in Qin Ji's eyes, and he trembled.
"The little ones didn't know beforehand. When it was time to set off, Concubine Zhao suddenly ran out by herself and jumped on the queen's phoenix. β
Qin Ji waved his hand and motioned for him to shut up.
Gonggong Liu lowered his head and shrunk his shoulders, making himself look smaller.
Yu Mingzhi said: "Concubine Zhao Shufei is here, it's not so simple. She blinked, and the corners of her eyes showed disapproval, "Didn't you say that the emperor also wants to see me?"
Qin Ji clapped his hands, "I know." β
The two walked to the phoenix, and the palace maid whispered to the door, and then a kind female voice sounded, "Please come in." β
The palace maid opened the car door, and Qin Ji carefully helped Yu Mingzhi into the car, and winked before she entered the carriage.
Yu Mingzhi bent down and went in, and saw two graceful and luxurious women, one of whom was wearing a phoenix robe, gentle and friendly. The one on her left and right was wearing a water-red brocade dress with a peony pattern, and the golden hairpin on the high bun was swaying and shining, reflecting a bewitching cheek, and he squinted at her gently, smiling at her lightly, with a hint of contempt.
"The folk girl Guo Baozhi has seen the queen mother, the lady concubine. She bowed.
The queen smiled and stretched out her hand and pressed it on her arm, "Miss Guo doesn't have to be formal, sit down." β
Yu Mingzhi obediently sat down to her right.
The queen looked at her with a smile, and was about to speak, not wanting to be preempted by Concubine Zhao.
"I thought that the woman who could be favored by the Qin She people would definitely be a city and a country, but I didn't expect that she would look well-behaved and lovely, but it was worse than I imagined. β
is really direct enough, Yu Mingzhi said indifferently: "In the eyes of the lover, presumably the lady is also stunning in the eyes of the emperor." β
The queen did not say anything, and Concubine Zhao Shu's face was cold.
This sentence sounds like a compliment to her on the surface, but if you think about it carefully, doesn't it also mean that she is mediocre in the eyes of others?
What a sharp-toothed girl. Zhao Shufei stroked her beautiful cheek with her palm, and a hint of a smirk appeared, "You girl, you talk so sweetly." I heard that yesterday you and the girl from Yang Lezheng's family went to play music for my mother? I was really wronged to ask your fiancΓ©e, a Chinese scholar, to play the piano for an old lady for her. β
What she said was not only demeaning to her, but also Qin Ji, referring to the two of him serving Mrs. Zhao like an artist. Yu Mingzhi was indifferent, "The matter of offering music has nothing to do with the official position of the husband's family, only a little bit of the younger generation's heart for the elders." β
"Ha," Zhao Shufei covered her mouth and smiled, "But you didn't know my mother before." β
Yu Mingzhi said: "Everyone in the family is an official in the court, and they all serve for the emperor. β
The queen suddenly spoke, "Miss Guo's words are good, being an official in the court should be like a family, and work together to do your part for the country and the people." β
Concubine Zhao looked at their singing and said, "Yes, the queen and Miss Guo have the world in their hearts." She raised the fan in her hand, and the fan surface was embroidered with delicate green bamboo and tender yellow birds, and in her shaking fan, it was as agile as life.
The queen didn't intend to catch Concubine Zhao Shu's words, but instead took Yu Mingzhi's hand and said: "Miss Guo is smart and dignified, with you as a virtuous helper of the Qin Sheren, the emperor and I can put a hundred hearts." β
"The Guo family also has a hundred hearts, right? In the future, the daily supply in the palace will be provided, and the Guo family will score a big cup. Zhao Shufei fanned the fan, and her phoenix eyes rolled, "Congratulations to Miss Guo first." β
The queen didn't seem to hear her words, and continued: "I like you very much, and I will ask the emperor to allow you to come into the palace to accompany me." β
The reason why Concubine Zhao Shu can be so arrogant is because of the emperor's favor and the power of the Zhao family. There are countless beauties in the harem, and there are countless people who are more beautiful than her, she can only rely on these two things to call the wind and rain, and she is superior. But if you remove these two things, I'm afraid there will be nothing. Yu Mingzhi doesn't have the same knowledge as her, so he just talks to the queen.
"Thanks to the queen's love, Baozhi is terrified. β
The queen smiled kindly, "Qin Sheren has made a lot of efforts to solve problems for the emperor, and they are studying together, they are like friends in private, and there is no difference between monarchs and ministers, so the two of us don't need to be polite, you can treat me as a sister." β
Yu Mingzhi smiled shyly.
Concubine Zhao said in a weird manner: "I want to remind Miss Guo, the queen's words are polite, just listen to it, don't take it seriously." When you see the queen and other concubines in the future, you must do the etiquette, otherwise anyone who is in a bad mood or does not recognize your identity will be punished with a big disrespectful crime. β
The queen finally frowned, slightly dissatisfied.
Zhao Shufei saw that she was unhappy, and she became happy.
"......" Yu Mingzhi had to sigh at this unpleasant Zhao Shufei everywhere, and hastily agreed to "Xie Shufei reminds her".
The queen straightened her back and said, "Making friends is about making friends, not about paying attention to identity." I heard that Zhao Shangshuling often treats people with this sentence, but I didn't expect that Concubine Shu, you couldn't understand this sentence. β
Zhao Shufei smiled "hehe" and turned her face to look out the window.
The queen said again: "When you get to the paddock, you will see the emperor again." Don't be afraid, the emperor is also a good person, just take the current situation. β
Yu Mingzhi said: "Yes." β
Concubine Zhao Shufei sneered: "The queen is really big-hearted. β
The queen squinted, "What Concubine Shu said is agreeable?"
Concubine Zhao Shufei turned her head and stared at her meaningfully, "I have forgotten the origin of the queen's mother, no wonder I don't understand." β
The queen's face was gloomy, and she said coldly: "Concubine Shu." β
Zhao Shufei didn't care, "Isn't it the truth when you get what I said?"
Yu Mingzhi obviously felt a depressing atmosphere permeating the carriage, and the queen and Concubine Zhao seemed to be going to "war", just because of her arrival. If it is spread out, it may be said that there is something wrong with her life, and Qin Ji will be implicated by the way.
At this moment, Gonggong Liu's voice sounded outside again, "The emperor has arrived." β
