(One hundred and twenty-eight) in the depths of spring
Jiang Miaoyi was demoted to Jiang Concubine, grounded in Guangping Xuan, Rou Gui Ji was promoted to Rou Gui Concubine, and the news of moving to the Ganquan Hall of Yuhui Palace was accompanied by the news that Rou Gui Concubine was pushed down by Jiang Concubine and caused a miscarriage within half a day, and it spread all over the palace. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
The palace people in Guangping Xuan were all forked out and killed, and they were replaced inside and out, and everyone was in danger for a while, especially those palace people, all of them were silent and respectful, for fear that the next unlucky person would be themselves, but it made the atmosphere in the palace a lot better. Those who originally thought that Wen Qingwan would collapse without a child, watched her become a noble concubine overnight, and His Majesty and Empress had to visit her every day.
"Niangniang, look at those people, all of them lick their faces and wish they couldn't come out of the palace of the noble concubine! It's just a noble concubine, is it necessary to please like that? Our Qin concubines are also noble concubines, why don't you see them to curry favor with them? ”
On this day, it was Chukong and Yulan who accompanied Song Mier to visit the Rou Gui Concubine in the Ganquan Palace. She only sat in the Ganquan Hall for half an hour, and she kept hearing that the palace people in the Ganquan Hall were like herself and the noble concubine, and there was a visit from the palace concubine. Song Mier thought that a miscarriage would be equivalent to sitting for a small month, and Rou Gui Concubine was not suitable for receiving those concubines, and she came to visit her from time to time, all of which asked her to rest in bed, and Rou Gui Concubine was not squirming and vague, and immediately lay on the bed honestly with half-squinted eyes and did not sleep. But those palace concubines came, but they didn't sit silently and considerate of the noble concubines like themselves, how could the concubines have the energy to deal with it? But Song Mier saw that Rou Guifei's originally lifeless and pale face, and when she heard who was coming, a trace of joy flashed on her little face, and she sighed silently in her heart, but she felt that Rou Gui Concubine had lost her child, and it was a good thing that someone came to visit and distract her attention. As long as Rou Guiji feels that she can hold up her spirit, there is no problem.
Song Mierzai carefully observed for a while, and saw that Rou Guiji looked weak, and cheered up and asked for makeup, which looked much better than the angry appearance.
She looked at Rou Gui Concubine for a while, causing Rou Gui Concubine to think that there was something on her face, and she couldn't help touching her cheeks, "Niangniang, is Qingwan stained with something?" ”
"This palace thinks," Song Mier sighed, "You are just recovering from a serious illness, and it is the time to recuperate and recuperate, why don't you take advantage of this time to rest and rest, reject those who visit one by one, and entertain them when you are better?" ”
Concubine Rougui smiled weakly, "Thank you for your concern, Qingwan is inconvenient to get up, so I can only thank you in my heart." ”
Song Mi'er nodded, and Concubine Rou continued, "Qingwan is standing alone in this palace, although she has the protection of her mother, she can't stay under her wings for the rest of her life." Besides, Qingwan also wants to have a good body in the future, and do her best for her mother, and now the sisters in the palace come to visit Qingwan, if Qingwan refuses to receive it, one is that some people are afraid that some people will say that Qingwan is relying on her identity and the blessing of her mother. Pampered and arrogant', when the time comes, offended the small people, and tarnished the reputation of the mother, Qingwan is a sin; the second Qingwan also knows that not everyone among these people is as sincere as the mother of Qingwan, but they all came to the door, not afraid of the mother's jokes, Qingwan is thinking, if she can get a good relationship with them, Qingwan will have a better life in this palace in the future. ”
Rou Guiji pursed her lips and smiled shyly, "Qingwan is weak, she doesn't often go out and walk, many sisters in this palace are not familiar with it, and later she became pregnant, and it is even more to raise a fetus far away from everyone, even if it is not to win over the relationship, Qingwan also wants to have a few more sisters with a good relationship, and when the time comes, there will be more people who will do their best for you." ”
Rou Guifei propped up her body and said a big call in one breath, and the beauty hurriedly asked someone to take the warm red date and wolfberry tea, and told her to drink it slowly before giving up.
Concubine Rou was so full of words, and Song Mier had nothing else to persuade her, so she only gently tucked the corners of the quilt for her, "This palace doesn't need you to help this palace do anything, you take care of your own body, you have done a great thing for this palace." In short, it's good that you have a sense of proportion, no matter what, your body matters. ”
Song Mier exchanged a few more words with Rou Gui Concubine, and specially told her to pay attention to her body before leaving.
As soon as Song Mier walked out of the inner hall, those concubines couldn't wait for you to push me, I pushed you, wanted to go in, and when they saw Song Mier, they were busy saying hello, and after seeing Song Mier leave, they clamored again, "Hurry up and go in and see" "What did you take, I sent old ginseng here, but it is ······ expensive"" Come inside, don't keep people waiting······"
Only after getting out of the Yuhui Palace, the following Chukong couldn't help complaining, her relationship with Qin Guifei was not bad, Qin Shuya's temperament was also a little indifferent, Chukong was smart and lively, which just made up for her coldness, although it was said that after the big family, Qin Shuya did not have the arrogance of the ordinary family, but was very lenient, and she understood that Chukong was brought into the palace by Song Mier, like sisters, Song Mier herself can mingle with the maids, whether she is close or doesn't care about it, Qin Shuya got along well with Chukong. Therefore, when Chu Kong saw that these people were rushing to visit and comfort Rou Gui Concubine, his heart suddenly became a little unbalanced. When Qin Guifei became a noble concubine and moved to the Penglai Palace, she didn't see these people competing to visit, "This difference is too big!" Do they think that Rougui Concubine Niangniang is better than Qin Guifei Niangniang?! ”
Chukong's tone was angry and very uneven. Song Mier has always treated her kindly, and he doesn't care that she is not big or small, and she does not distinguish between dignity and inferiority. The maids around Song Mier are also half a lady in the Song family, and their servility is not so deep, and this kind of criticism of nobles will come as soon as they open their mouths. What's more, Chukong is also a smart and clever person, in front of outsiders, she never said these words, and Song Mier left her to go.
"You don't know that, do you?" Yu Lan, who was following on the side, teased narrowly, "Where are they going to see our noble concubines, they are obviously going to Your Majesty!" "It's not big or small than the empty at the beginning, and Yulan, a person like half of the rivers and lakes, doesn't take the so-called master's imperial power in her eyes, and ridicules when she opens her mouth.
"For Your Majesty? Your Majesty isn't in there? Chu Kong looked ignorant.
"Call you stupid, you're so stupid!" Yu Lan stretched out a finger and poked Chukong's forehead, "Who doesn't know that Your Majesty and our master will come to Ganquan Hall almost every day to sit for a while and see Rougui Concubine!" Although His Majesty is not here at the moment, it is difficult to guarantee that His Majesty will come later, these ladies, of course, will come to Ganquan Hall to wait for the rabbit! In case he was seen by His Majesty when he was greeting the noble concubine, he could still make a good impression! Even if you don't meet Your Majesty today, there will be tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, even if you can't meet Your Majesty all the time, you can still have a good reputation for caring for your sisters! ”
"So many doorways!" Chukong snorted for a moment, jumped to Song Mier's side, and asked in a low voice, "Master, you said that we can all understand things, does Your Majesty know about it?" ”
Song Mier couldn't help but laugh, "Your Majesty doesn't know if this palace doesn't know, but this palace knows, whether Your Majesty knows it or not, Your Majesty will pretend not to know." ”
After saying that, Song Mier raised his head, lifted the hem of his skirt, and Shi Shiran jumped over a small pond of stagnant water and walked past without hesitation.
"It's so winding..." Chukong shook his head, "Hey, master, wait for me!" ”
······
I don't know what Shen Zhan thinks, but how he did it, but it spread throughout the harem in an instant.
On the tenth day of Rou Gui Concubine's bed rest, when Mei Yurong visited Rou Gui Concubine, it happened to be Shen Zhan, who was taking the imperial doctor to readjust the prescription for Rou Gui Concubine, and that night, since a lotus picking dance nearly a month ago, Mei Yurong, who had been silent and alone after jumping from a little palace maid to Mei Yurong, finally ushered in the spring of her bed.
For a moment, the palace was shocked.
No one would have thought that Mei Yurong, who had been silent and would not come back to life, would become a veritable Yurong Niangniang a month later, and everyone inquired about what happened that day, so that His Majesty looked at Mei Yurong differently and became interested. The Ganquan Hall of the Rougui Concubine has become a feng shui treasure that everyone is eager for, and they all want to win the favor of His Majesty. And Rou Guifei even bit her silver teeth, her back molars were sour, and Mei Yurong became the person she hated second.
Since Mei Yurong went to bed for the first time, it seems that he has opened up some acupoints, and His Majesty, who has not entered the harem for a long time ago, has spoiled Mei Yurong every night, and the jewelry rewards have been carried to Mei Yurong's palace like flowing water. The inconspicuous Rong Anju has now become shining in the eyes of everyone. Mei Yurong was favored by His Majesty in front of her, and then she clinged to the big tree of Liu Guifei, and she was in the limelight for a while. But she is also unforgiving, talking with a gun and a stick, and many concubines have eaten and hung up. are secretly talking behind their backs, sure enough, what masters raise what slaves, Mei Yurong, who got up in this palace, is really the same as her former master, Liu Guifei! After the discussion, I have to think: Is Your Majesty just like this? No matter what everyone thinks, in front of Mei Yurong, she still has to greet her with a smile, who says that she is being favored now?
But just when everyone thought that Mei Yurong would become a hot nobleman in the palace like Yue Shuyi at that time, just like how Mei Yurong suddenly became favored, she suddenly fell out of favor again.
It's not necessarily true to say that he has fallen out of favor, but His Majesty suddenly spoiled several concubines who were not high-ranking in a row, changing one every few days, and throwing away one after a few days.
His Majesty's edict is such a fortunate method, and the concubines in the palace feel that there are more opportunities, and they all show off their flowers, but they have more spring atmosphere than in the early spring.
And Shen Zhan's rain and dew were evenly wet, which made Song Mier, Liu Shuxing, Yuan Wanyou and other "old people" have not had so many opportunities to sleep. Except for the fact that His Majesty will definitely dine with the Queen Mother every day or two, everyone seems to have returned to the status of an equal waiting bed.
Some people are happy and some are worried, but Song Mier is not unhappy, but someone is unhappy for her.
"Master, how can this be so!"
Before seeing the figure, she heard the voice, it was none other than Chu Kong, she frowned uncharacteristically, paced back and forth in the room with her hands, walked to a place, and quickly turned back, "No, this hairpin is too stingy, you must suppress them today!" One for another! Chukong carefully took the nine-turn Luan phoenix hairpin up from Song Mier's moon-looking bun, picked and selected in the open jewelry box for a long time, and took out four or five hair ornaments and compared them on Song Mier's head, "We can't be too colorful, so as not to make others think that we have no confidence, but we can't be too delicate and tactful, we must show the domineering spirit of the queen!" It can't be too messy and heavy, you can't stand it, master, and there will be no theme, but it can't be too monotonous, so there is no momentum, and it can't highlight the identity...... All right! Just this blue jade peony hairpin with a variety of tourmalines swaying towards the phoenix! ”
The blue jade peony hairpin is made of blue jade with extremely translucent and moist water head, and the carved peony is just a touch of red jade on this blue jade, the shape is natural and ingenious, not only in the value of jade, but also in the shape and meaning of the peony of this red jade.
The linlang tourmaline swayed towards the phoenix, it is still Song Mier's favorite tourmaline, red, blue, pink and green, it is really dazzling, and the most eye-catching thing is that those tourmalines that are only half of the small nails are carved into the shape of a hundred birds, some are holding flowers, some seem to be opening their mouths to sing, the shape changes in a thousand ways, but they all spread their wings upwards, and just above them, the part that is close to the bun is polished into a bright red phoenix, swaying nine phoenix tails, majestic and wanton.
Compared with this, the nine-turn Luan phoenix hairpin that was made by Zishu Julai, which was originally very delicate and beautiful on its own, did seem a little stingy.
In the early sky, between the gaps in Song Mier's moon-gazing bun, a red jade flower that is not much bigger than a grain of rice is inserted, which is not very obvious at first glance, but there is a flow of brilliance between actions, especially under the sun, which is even more dazzling. The red and blue colors echo each other with the blue jade peony hairpin and the linlang tourmaline towards the phoenix, and set off each other, not only will not appear to be messy, but also invisibly add brilliance.
After finishing the hair accessories, Chukong opened the wardrobe again "bang bang", took out more than a dozen sets of clothes and skirts that had been matched in one go, and compared them one by one with the small collapse in front of Song Mier.
Song Mier couldn't help but hold his forehead and smile bitterly, "Chukong, what the hell are you doing!" ”
"Let the master, you overwhelm the crowd!" Hatsuku replied as a matter of course.
"Master, you don't know, now there are some girls who are proud of their favors once or twice, and today take advantage of this flower-viewing banquet, master, you go out in a grand manner, and keep it so that those ladies will immediately know who is the master in this palace!"
The flower-viewing banquet that Chukong said is a banquet that the concubines are putting together right now.
The conveners are the concubines who are now being favored.
The banquet was held next to Taiye Lake, and every lady who participated in the banquet in this palace must come up with at least four pots of flowers and gather them in one place.
At the turn of spring and summer, the plants and flowers are thick, and it is also a good time to enjoy the flowers.
This banquet didn't worry about Song Mier, which concubines proposed it, and which concubines were asked to handle it. Song Mier was also relieved that all matters of the banquet were handed over to those concubines and concubines, and he told the heads of the Shanggong Bureau and the Internal Affairs Office to fully cooperate.
With the support of the queen's mother, the concubines also held the banquet lively. Different from the previous Mid-Autumn Festival banquet and Song Mier's birthday banquet, this banquet is a delicate route - Xu is aware that he can't hold a magnificent banquet like the queen's mother, in order to avoid its edge, he chose a delicate and interesting route, and even the famous posts sent to the palaces are all in the shape of various flowers.
However, if you are attentive, smart people can also understand that this flower-viewing banquet is just to use the name of flower-viewing to compete for beauty among the concubines of each palace. Flowers and flowers, flowers are not the protagonists, the owner of the flowers is the right corner.
But it can't be said that flowers are meaningless, what kind of flowers do the ladies of the palace bring out, doesn't it symbolize their status in His Majesty's heart and in the palace? It also symbolizes their family background and favor.
This kind of flower-viewing banquet held by Ming Huanghuang in order to show off is also very beautiful, and it cannot be said that this concubine who is being favored at the moment is not ambitious, and her courage is not ordinary.
Therefore, Chukong's idea is not wrong, and dressing Song Mier as a bright person is not only to show the queen's style, but also to hint at those newly favored ladies, who is the unfailing master of this harem.
Song Mier reluctantly raised his hand and surrendered: "Okay, good, according to you, you can dress up as you want." ”
Looking at Chukong's energetic look, Song Mier couldn't bear to hit her, today is not his home field, he only plans to bring a few pots of flowers that are not outstanding and cannot be picked out, sit on it and eat his own snacks silently, and enjoy a piece of purple and red.
The first sky here was full of excitement and gestures, and Qinghe, who had been standing to help the first sky reference, also spoke: "Master, aren't you worried?" ”
"What is Hongu worried about?" Song Mier****.
Qinghe pondered for a moment and said, "Although the slave and maid are not allowed to discuss the master's affairs, but now Your Majesty will change a lady to pet you in three days, and the time to come to the master and you is a lot less, and the slave and maid are afraid of ······."
"Are you afraid that Hongu will fall out of favor?" Song Mier raised his eyebrows.
"Master, that's not what the slave meant······· The slave and the maid are ······" Clear and anxious to distinguish.
"Hey, Sister Qinghe, don't worry, doesn't Your Majesty often dine with your master! Where did those moths stumble for a few days? ”
"But it's all said ······ outside." Qinghe blushed.
"Your Majesty, it's a good thing that the rain and dew are even, Qinghe, this palace doesn't want to hear these words from your mouth again." Song Mi'er interrupted Qinghe's words again, "Your Xuande Palace's eldest palace maid, your words and deeds represent the attitude of this palace. If you go out like this, no matter what the people outside say, they will look at you, and they will feel that this palace is intolerant, and the amount of gas is small, and the slightest change in the harem will panic. ”
"Qinghe, do you want this palace to be such an image in everyone's mouth?"
Song Mier's tone is gentle, but her attitude is firm, after the last incident, she is no longer as indulgent as before, and what should be beaten will be beaten. After all, Qinghe has changed unconsciously······
"Master, the slave has never had such a mind. The slave and maid don't dare, don't be angry! ”
Qinghe heard Song Mier say this, and hurriedly knelt down with a "poof", climbing the corner of Song Mier's skirt to beg for mercy.
"Okay, get up quickly, kneel like you can't move. Hongu is just reminding you not to lose your dignity, when is it blaming you again? Qinghe is now also a soldier, and he is afraid of his own blame, and he can't help but always persuade her to compete for favor and fame, Song Mier sighed, "This palace and ask you, do you know what the identities of these people are this time?" ”
"What identity?" Qinghe was stunned, and only after a long time did he say, "The most favored Zhang Yi at the moment is just a Miaohua of the fifth grade, who originally looked like a bad weather, but last time because of Sun Shuyi's instigation, it seems that he has also come to the main **." And now Zhang Nanguang and Tang Yingying, who are parting with each other, one is the concubine of Shu Liupin, the other is Jieyu of the seventh grade, and Zhou Hengfang and Bei Min are also newly promoted, one is Zhou Ronghua from the seventh grade, and the other is another noble person from the eighth grade, in addition, Concubine Zhuang and Lan Guiji, who were favored by His Majesty in the past, are also very attention-grabbing, and Concubine Xue, who is not optimistic, and was reprimanded by His Majesty for opportunism at the beginning of entering the palace, Wang Fanghua and Wang Yueheng have also been favored several times······ There are all kinds of things, and many newcomers have risen. ”
"This is not what the palace said," Song Mier shook his head, "Zhang Miaohua's uncle is the editor of the Hanlin Academy, Zhang Nanguang Zhang Concubine's grandfather is the left servant of the Ministry of Officials, Tang Jieyu Tang Yingying's father is the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, Zhou Hengfang Zhou Ronghua's father is also in the Ministry of Officials, and he is the right servant of the Ministry of Officials, and Bei Min, her uncle Bei Daoyu, is the head of the Ministry of Officials. ”
Song Mier smiled mysteriously, "This palace said this, do you understand?" ”
"I understand, I understand," Chu Kong said preemptively, "Your Majesty favors them, and they are all linked to their family backgrounds. I feel that many of them are from the ministry, is there any promotion or demotion of officials? ”
As a servant of the Song family, even Chukong can understand a thing or two about this officialdom at a young age.
"I can't tell you that." Song Mier shook his finger.
"But master, Your Majesty is so pampered, aren't you afraid that others will find out?"
"So, didn't you find out here, Wang Fanghua and Concubine Xue are also favored again?"
"That's right!" Chu Kong wrinkled his nose, "Only if the master understands His Majesty will he find out!" ”
"In this way, are Tang Jieyu and Zhang Miaohua also covering? That Tang Jieyu has been very arrogant recently······" Qinghe hesitated.
"Although Zhang Yi's uncle is only the editor of the Hanlin Academy of Zhengqipin, he is a protégé of the Ministry of Rites, and Tang Yingying's father, Tang Zelai, is a proud disciple of Xu Nanjiang, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials······ Besides, the daughter of the Zhengqipin editor has become the most favored Shu Wupin Miaohua, but Zhang Nanguang, the granddaughter of the Zuo Shilang of the Zhengerpin Minister's Department, is a concubine of the Shu Liupin, and she has to compete with the daughter of the Wupin Shaoqing, you say, isn't this interesting? ”
The more Qinghe and Chukong listened, the more confused they became, and Chukong said in frustration, "The slaves are stupid, and they don't see what they mean. ”
Song Mier also smiled and didn't speak, and although Qinghe didn't understand, he breathed a sigh of relief, "So master, you're not in a hurry?" ”
"Yes," Song Mi'er smiled, "This palace is not in a hurry at all, so don't worry about it, this palace is the most anxious now, but what to bring to the banquet later, why don't you urge Yu Lan to see how she prepares?" ”
Qinghe and Chukong looked at each other for a while, put their feet together, and laughed together: "Slave obeys!" ”
