Chapter 4 The Crisis Floats Darkly

This year's Beijing city seems to be very peaceful, and it will snow every two or three days, and there will be a good harvest next year. At first, a few snowflakes fell scattered in the sky, and then the snow became heavier and heavier, covering the ground.

"Sister Zhang, why did you get up so early?" Zuo Yu woke up from a nap, it was just worrying, seeing that Sister Zhang was not in the house, I thought she was going out to relieve herself, who came out of the house saw her standing in front of the door looking up at the snow falling from the sky.

Zhang Junyu came back to his senses, looked back and smiled lightly at Zuo Yu, "It's a little cold in the room, which makes people feel sleepless." ”

Zuo Yu looked sideways at the scattered charcoal fire in the house, and sighed: "It's indeed a little cold, but there's wind outside, isn't it even cooler?"

Hearing this, Zhang Junyu gathered his cloak and said to himself: "How can it be so cold as people's hearts."

"What's wrong with my sister?"

"Zhang Junfang!"

After the words fell, he heard the menacing cry behind him, and after Zuo Yu, Zhang Junyu also slowly turned around, only to see Qiao Yan and another lady in yellow standing in front of the door of the house next door, with fierce eyes full of fierce light, "I have no grudge against you, why did you slander me last night!" ”

"Sister Qiaoyan, where is this", at that time, the ladies of all families had not yet gotten up, Zhang Junfang was really not suitable to confront Qiaoyan, so he was still easy-going, and showed a light smile with her, "When did I speak out to slander my sister?" ”

"Hmph", Qiao Yan smiled coldly, "What do you mean by my clever words!" ”

"Naturally, it's to praise my sister."

"You don't have to sell it to me!"

Zuo Yu finally couldn't hold back, "Sister Zhang has always been respectful and courteous, and she is not as arrogant as some people, how can this newcomer easily form a bond with others." ”

"What do you mean!" Qiao Yan was so angry that she was about to slap Zuo Yu, but was stopped by the lady in yellow beside her, "Sister, everyone is a lady, this is absolutely unacceptable!" ”

"Get out of the way!" Unexpectedly, Qiaoyan did not listen to persuasion, but glared at the lady in yellow angrily.

"Sister......

"Get out of the way!" Qiao Yan was still full of anger, "Eryin, you are eating inside and outside now, isn't it because you have received the benefits of these two cheap billets!" ”

Eryin didn't dare to say much after hearing it, at that time, almost all the ladies had gone out to watch, most of them were slandered by Qiaoyan, Eryin finally let go, Qiaoyan didn't want to slap Zuo Yu again, just turned around and rushed to the onlookers ladies, "Look at what", seeing that the ladies had dispersed, he pulled his shirt and said with a scornful smile: "I know, if you want me to hit you, Aunt Yansui will punish me, and you will be the one who is proud at that time."

Zuo Yu was silent, but he had a frightened look, and Qiaoyan still looked disdainful, "Zhang Junyu, I must have written down today's events, don't be too complacent, when I become the crown princess, you will feel better." ”

Zhang Junyu couldn't help but puff coldly when he heard this, "No one is perfect, Sister Qiaoyan is dissatisfied with me, I won't say much, but sister don't forget, between you and me, there is still an old account that has not been settled." ”

After hearing this, Qiao Yan suddenly remembered what Zhang Junyu said to her last night, and she was puzzled, and she was about to ask after it, but who knew that Eryin whispered and hurriedly called her away.

"This Wang Qiaoyan, just relying on her father is a political envoy, is so arrogant and domineering, and she is not afraid to bite her tongue when she speaks", Zuo Yu removed his gaze that stopped behind Qiaoyan and looked at Zhang Junfang with a resentful face.

Zhang Junfang was as quiet as ever, and also stared at Zuo Yu, "You can't help but be a little impulsive, if her slap really comes down, I'm afraid it won't be light." ”

"I'm not afraid! My sister treats me well, and I treat my sister with sincerity. ”

"Actually, you don't have to be so, people's hearts are unpredictable, after this. Palace, only life is the most important thing. ”

"Why are the two girls still here?" Du Ren walked quickly to interrupt Zhang Junyu's words, and his expression was extremely panicked, "Didn't you know it?" ”

"What's so alarming?" Seeing her frightened look, Zhang Junfang naturally had a hint of foreboding in his heart.

When the people heard this, they became more and more frightened, "Aunt Shicai said that the concubine Niangniang is coming, and tell the girl to go to the main hall to wait for the Niangniang Feng, the two girls are afraid that it will be too late!" ”

Zhang Junyu's heart tightened, no wonder Fang Qiaoyan left in a hurry, it turned out that there was such a thing, but I don't know why the people didn't inform them about it.

"What?" Zuo Yu panicked at this moment, and was about to run forward with Zhang Junyu, not forgetting to reproach in his mouth, "Why didn't you say it earlier!" ”

"Eh", Zhang Junfang stopped his steps, "It's too late, why rush to go, you lose your temper like this." ”

When I arrived at the main hall, Wan Guifei Feng had not yet arrived, but the ladies were already standing in the hall and waiting, and when I saw Yan Sui's face stretched out, her eyes widened angrily, "Why is it so late, this is disrespectful to the concubine Niangniang, don't you want to be punished!" ”

Before the two of them could answer, Qiao Yan took the lead, "Auntie, don't blame the two sisters, people didn't want to come, who knew that auntie, you had to ask people to come, how could you blame them if it was too late?" ”

Yan Sui only glanced at her, then looked back at them with a displeased face, "Remember to salute after me later!" ”

"Got it, thank you aunt for reminding me."

Yan Sui seemed to be a little impatient, glanced sideways at Zhou Youhui secretly, and then turned around.

Outside the hall, there was another gust of wind and fire, and I saw three richly dressed women with graceful faces slowly walking in surrounded by a group of people.

"Slave Yansui, meet the queen, the noble concubine, the virtuous concubine."

"Minnu, meet the queen, the noble concubine, the virtuous concubine."

The woman on the left was dressed in a hundred children's clothes, and her head was adorned with a crown of twelve trees with large flowers and small flowers. The woman on the right looks a little older than the queen, but she wears the same color of the gold embroidered cloud xia horse-faced skirt, combs the same bun, and the beaded gold ornaments on her head are more graceful than the queen.

However, Concubine Bai Xian, who stood behind Queen Wang and Wan Guifei, was really restrained, and she was not as tall as Wan Guifei, this lilac pleated jacket skirt made her elegant and refined, and her simple bun looked extremely plain, making people feel comfortable and comfortable when they looked at it.

From beginning to end, Wan Guifei was side by side with Queen Wang, and even sat down one step ahead of Queen Wang, but Concubine Bai Xian, after Queen Wang and Wan Guifei sat down, she sat on the small seat beside Queen Wang.

I heard that Wan Guifei was deeply favored by the emperor, so that she was arrogant and domineering, no one in her eyes, and even colluded with traitors, cruel to the loyal and good, and poisoned the royal family, she was a complete evil woman, and today she treated the queen so rudely, presumably not only to satisfy her vanity that is higher than the main palace everywhere, but also to be in the back. The palace newcomer set up a prestige in front of him.

"Get up, why be so polite with this palace", although Concubine Wan looks young, her voice is slightly vicissitudes, and she is also an old man in the end.

"Xie Niangniang."

Concubine Wan Guicai looked at Queen Wang intentionally or unintentionally as she spoke, and then hooked the corners of her lips and smiled, "The concubine heard that my sister's throat is uncomfortable these days, so she took the initiative to exempt her sister from kneeling first, and my sister won't blame, right?" ”

Queen Wang didn't answer, but just said to the people on her side as if she was joking: "Recently, this body in this palace is indeed a little uncomfortable, and I really don't want to ask about it. The palace is trivial, in the next month, Wan Guifei will temporarily handle the affairs of the inner court on behalf of the palace, and you will inform them when the palaces ask for peace tomorrow, and they don't have to get up early to ask for peace this month", the prince's choice of concubine is a matter of great importance, how should it not be controlled by a concubine, the queen mother has always loved the prince, and it is also because of her rhetoric that she persuaded the emperor to the general election, and the biggest behind-the-scenes promoter of the selection of concubines is the queen mother.

Wan's and the Queen Mother are vying for power and profit, what is the matter with her, the plan for today is not to watch a play, but to protect herself, and the posterior position is not easy to come by, but it can't end miserably like Queen Wu back then.

"Yes."

Zhang Junyu was really worried in his heart, the queen is the head of the six palaces, in charge of the phoenix seal and the golden book, after the general control. The palace maid has the power of life and death, and now she has voluntarily handed over this right to Wan Guifei, wouldn't she lose her identity!

And I have heard that Wan Guifei is bitter and vicious, the queen's move is not to put their life and death in danger, but to let them be slaughtered by Wan Guifei!

"Thanks to my sister's respect, the concubine is better to be respectful than to obey her fate", Wan Guifei is proud in her heart, this queen saw the fate of Wu Waste with her own eyes, and in order to keep her position after entering the middle palace, she never competed with others and became jealous, and never asked about her daily style.

Seeing that Concubine Wan was so arrogant, Queen Wang was also unhappy in her heart, although she rarely asked the queen. The affairs of the palace, but she is also a queen, how can she let a concubine oppress, so Shi Shiran asked: "Sister Xian Concubine needs to help from the side." ”

Concubine Bai Xian was shocked when she heard this, and hurriedly raised her eyes to look at Concubine Wan, remembering that she lost her son back then, and she was still afraid, so she really didn't dare to compare with Concubine Wan, "Sister values it, but the concubine has lived in the Longxi Hall for a long time, and she has been chanting scriptures and worshipping Buddha all day long, so she really can't take care of this matter." ”

"That's it, the concubine's sister has never been bad at doing things, she must be able to get away on weekdays, and the emperor hasn't been to his sister's place for a while, right?" Queen Wang's heart was stunned.

Wan Guifei made a laugh, "My sister is very right, and only when the emperor does not go to Anxi Palace, the concubines are empty, and the emperor often goes to Concubine Gong's sister these days, and the concubines are also idle." ”

"Oh? That sister has to thank Concubine Gong for this leisure. ”

"This is natural", Concubine Wan replied and glanced at the ladies casually, "Sister, look at these ladies, they are really handsome, no matter how you look at them, the concubines feel that they have two of them when they entered the palace." ”

Queen Wang didn't look back at her, she just glanced sideways, and said with a smile: "This is true, but this palace and the sister of Concubine Xian are now over thirty years old, and they can't compare to these sixteen or seventeen-year-old girls, sister, don't you say?" ”

Concubine Wan didn't answer, but said loudly: "You are all rare beauty embryos, and this time you enter the palace, presumably for the same purpose, but you all have to settle down, don't intrigue." Although the prince's choice of concubine is not as powerful as the emperor's selection of concubines, but the princess will be the queen in the future, after all, this is also a major event related to the mother's world. ”

"Remember the teachings of the mother."

While speaking, a petite man walked quickly to Wan Guifei's side, and didn't know what to say in her ear, and then Wan Guifei stared at Zhang Junfang, who was standing with her head down, and saw that Queen Wang stood up and walked to the outside of the palace, she also stood up and walked to the palace door with the help of the palace people, but when she walked to Zhang Junyu's side, she stopped and looked at it for a long time, but she couldn't see anything, and asked softly: "Your mother, what is it called?"

"Hui Niangniang, my mother Jin, called Jin Fu."

"Jin Fu?" Concubine Wan frowned, and then strode out of the palace with Queen Wang.

Zhang Junfang knew that something was wrong, but he was afraid that Wan Guifei had noticed something, but he didn't know why she wanted to ask her mother's name, looking back at Wan Guifei's spine, which had gradually become crumbling, she couldn't help but feel gloomy, but she was afraid that she would not be able to live in peace in the future.
