Chapter 83
Tao Mi'er stayed with the emperor for the first day, but failed to leave him for the second day, and the emperor finally went to the Xihua Palace. "Le > Text" novel xs520.
But she didn't care.
She has been very self-aware since a long time ago, and her original plan was to stay with the emperor for a day, but now she has got what she wants.
When the emperor left, she even sent the emperor to the gate of Afang Palace in person, and in the following days, she also laughed at the increasingly prosperous news about the return of favor to the Xihua Palace.
Others are not as calm as she is. All of a sudden, there were all kinds of well-planned "accidents" on the road to the Xihua Palace, all of which pointed to one purpose - to intercept the emperor from Hua Guiyi's hands and block the momentum of Hua Guiyi's return to favor.
Even Ya Liangyuan, who has a lot of peace because of her growing belly, began to move, eager to use the dragon species in her belly to find eighteen reasons to pull her to her own residence, even if she will be spoiled by Mellow Shuyi, she doesn't mind.
In the final analysis, Hua Guiyi's original favor really caused too many psychological shadows for them.
But without exception, none of these could stop it, and on the day of the New Year's banquet, the emperor even appeared at the banquet with Hua Guiyi.
At that time, the concubines sitting at the New Year's banquet only felt cold, as if they had seen the day when they would never come out again, and they no longer had the energy to pay attention to what was happening at the banquet.
Proud people never sympathize with frustrated people, especially in the palace, where they really want to stab each other to death, where will there be those useless sympathy and pity. Hua Guiyi has been moistened by the emperor in all aspects these days, and her complexion has become more and more ruddy, and even the small spots brought by pregnancy seem to be about to shine, which is very beautiful. She was sitting beside the emperor at this moment, talking intimately to the emperor, and occasionally handing a few provocative glances to the concubines below.
The reason why she is so arrogant is because not only others think that she is going to regain her favor, but even she herself thinks that she is ...... She's going back to that time when she was alone.
As a few days ago, Tao Mi'er, who was in the limelight and promoted several levels in a row, received special attention from Hua Guiyi - she got a plate of pickled sour plum from Hua Guiyi's reward on the royal table.
Tao Mi'er raised her eyebrows, raised her head and thanked Hua Guiyi with a smile: "Please also ask the girl to pass the word, thank you Sister Hua for reading Mi'er." ”
Of course, she is not so simple as to think that Hua Guiyi is really thinking about her, but why should she accept Hua Guiyi's move?
The palace maid standing in front of Tao Mi'er was stunned, but the good training made her react quickly, nodded and retreated.
"Sister Yu is so lucky that she can eat at the same table as the emperor." The voice that was obviously gloating came from the left side of Peach Mill, only to hear her pause for a moment and then say, "We really can't envy ......"
Tao Mi'er turned her head sideways and looked at Wang Zhaorong, who was gently wiping the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief: "Sister, I should have said this earlier, so that my sister can help you ask Sister Hua for a share, right?" ”
Wang Zhaorong was speechless for a while, and finally could only give up.
Seeing that the people she didn't know flinched from, she concentrated on eating the food on her small table, occasionally looking at the people around her, and carefully feeling this New Year's banquet that made her feel very unusual.
Yes, this New Year's banquet feels a little weird, but it was the first time she participated in the New Year's Banquet in the palace, so she didn't know if she was overthinking herself, or if there was really something wrong. 、
Tao Mi'er, who had a lot of thoughts in her heart, unconsciously set her eyes on Concubine Shu - the woman with the most special status in the harem.
Tormented by the poison in her body day by day, Concubine Shu looks a lot thinner, no longer has her previous plumpness, and she looks a lot haggard. Behind her stood a eunuch with gloomy eyes, staring at Concubine Shu with complex and deep thoughts flashing from time to time.
"Why is Yu Jieyu staring at Concubine Shu like this? But worried about Concubine Shu? Xian Jieyu's temperament does not seem to have changed, just like when she first entered the court, indifferent and dusty, as if she was high up, and everyone else was dust in the ground. The pregnancy made her much rounder, and her belly was a few times larger than the concubine next to her, and even the belly of Hua Guiyi, the eldest flower in the month, was a little smaller than hers.
Tao Mi'er remembered that she had heard Biqing mention it before that the imperial doctor diagnosed Xian Jieyu as pregnant with twins. It's just that...... Do twins have that big belly?
The doubts were only fleeting, and Tao Mi'er quickly put it behind her and began to talk to Xian Jieyu: "The elder is unwell, so why should I worry a little more." ”
Ignoring the uncomfortable places on Xian Jieyu's body, Tao Mi'er is still happy to have a false relationship with her.
Xian Jieyu just laughed when she heard this, who didn't know that Concubine Shu's current appearance was mostly due to Tao Mi'er. Now that Tao Mi'er is talking like this, she can't help but laugh.
Xian Jieyu, who has her own arrogance in her heart, no longer talks to Tao Mi'er, and sits quietly and proudly in her seat to enjoy the carefully rehearsed song and dance of Shangfang Bureau.
Peach Mill didn't care. It just so happened that the Queen Mother, who had been silent at this time, spoke: "Unconsciously, a year has passed, although there are many twists and turns, but it is good in the end, the emperor is healthy, and it is inseparable from your service, and your hard work and mourning family have been remembered for a year, and I have also discussed with the emperor to give you a promotion......
Listening to such opening words, the senior concubines were accustomed to it, and they only showed a slight expectant gaze, and the women who would enter the palace for a year were not so calm, their eyes lit up, and those low-ranking concubines who had not been able to win the emperor's favor felt that their hearts were about to jump out of their chests.
They know better than anyone what a high position can make for them.
It's a pity...... Some people's expectations are doomed to be disappointed.
Those who can be promoted to the throne have all occupied a position in the emperor's heart or have been mentioned by others, and the rest can only continue to stay in their original positions.
Peach Mill didn't pay too much attention to who had risen to a few places, but just listened attentively to what was related to herself, so she put aside this matter, pinched her cup and drank a glass of peach blossom wine.
These days, the promotion has been a little numb, and she has changed from Jieyu to Zhaoyuan, which does not make her feel happy at all. What she was more curious about at this point was what would happen next.
She didn't know anything about the previous dynasty, but she had a glimpse of some clues in the mission of the witch Gu incident, but it was this half-understanding situation that made her itch even more.
