Chapter 19: The Queen Mother (2)
Murong Yining looked at the anger on the Queen Mother's face, without the slightest fear, but with a smile in her eyes, she said softly:
"The Queen Mother will find out later." And when he had said that, he said no more.
After about half a cup of tea, the embroidery screen gradually changed.
Where the tea was splashed, a pale yellow outline faintly appeared, and this outline gradually became clear with the passage of time. It was a phoenix that did not appear in the Hundred Birds and Phoenixes.
I saw the phoenix, with its head held high, the phoenix tail behind it was half a foot long, and its eyes were lifelike, overlooking the whole world.
"This is the legendary water embroidery?" It was the queen who spoke, and the rest of the crowd was shocked by the scene.
"Back to the queen mother, exactly." Murong Yining still had a shallow smile on her face, as if this was nothing.
It's just that the concubines present all gasped because of Murong Yining's answer.
Everyone has heard of the water embroidery, and the bright yellow silk thread is soaked with a special potion. This is actually not difficult, but when embroidering, you need to use a slender hand loop stitch to make its characteristics visible.
And this slender hand loop needle method has been lost for a long time, but I didn't expect to see it here today.
"How could you?" The Queen Mother's voice came.
"Back to the Queen Mother, concubine = one = this = read = novel = ybdu concubine's embroidery is returning to this stitch." Murong Yining didn't tell the truth, in fact, it was taught by her mother.
"Oh?" The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows, "Where is she now?" ”
"She died of illness three years ago." Murong Yining said. The sadness in her eyes was unobstructed, as if she was really sad about her death.
"If that's the case, that's it." The Queen Mother nodded, "This birthday gift, the mourning family likes it very much." Reward. ”
As the Queen Mother's voice fell, Aunt Lan Yu behind her had already handed over a jade Ruyi.
"Thank you, Empress Dowager." Murong Yining leaned down and took the wish. It's just that she lowered her head, and no one saw the smile in her eyes.
"Queen Mother, do you like this gift?" Leng Yexuan echoed and smiled beside him.
"Good. The queen mother loved it. The Queen Mother had a loving smile on her face, but she was so indifferent in Murong Yining's eyes.
"That is the case, the queen mother, Ning'er has been in the palace for a while, this point." Leng Yexuan's voice was low, but it was like thunder, shocking.
"Your Majesty, no." Murong Yining saw the Queen Mother's brows furrowed unnaturally, and hurriedly knelt down.
"Oh? Why not? Leng Yexuan just wanted to say something, but was preempted by the Queen Mother.
"Back to the Queen Mother, it's still early for the concubines to enter the palace, besides, one pair of Sheji is helpless, and the second pair of heirs are useless, how dare you ask for a position?" Murong Yining said with sincere fear. It's not that she didn't see Leng Yexuan glaring at her, and she also understood what it meant, but in this way she became the target of everyone.
"You kid is really good, the mourning family didn't hurt you in vain." The Queen Mother took a sip of tea, "But the emperor said hello, it's good, and you will be promoted to Shunyi from the fourth grade." ”
Murong Yining's eyebrows jumped unconsciously, with her words, she changed from a concubine to Shunyi, and this Shunyi is not so easy to do.
"Emperor Xie, Empress Dowager Xie." Murong Yining couldn't, so he had to thank him.
"This is the birthday of the mourning family, Your Majesty, these palace concubines have also served for so long, so let's all be promoted." The Queen Mother's voice rang out again.
Sure enough, Murong Yining sneered. **Balance has always been the most important, the queen mother will never allow the emperor to favor anyone so much, since the emperor wants to promote her position, then simply the queen mother will sell her personal favor, so that all palaces can be promoted. The Queen Mother's move is really high.
"Yes, Queen Mother." Leng Yexuan said, how could he not know the thoughts of the Queen Mother, I am afraid that there will be a trick.
"Well, Han'er entered the palace with the Murong family, and he is your cousin, and he has been conscientious since he entered the palace, so he will be promoted to Zhaohua of the fourth grade." The Queen Mother said lightly, "Zheng Sipin is also the head of the first palace, and the mourning family remembers that there is no one in Yanqi Palace, so they will give it there." ”
"Thank you for the Empress Dowager's reward." After Su Qinhan listened, he said happily with that deep smile.
"Let's go." The Queen Mother motioned for her to sit down, "You have to serve the emperor well, and start a career for the royal family as soon as possible, but don't let down the thoughts of the mourning family." ”
"Yes, Auntie." Su Qinhan said with a smile.
"The rest of the concubines, just like the Murong family, should be promoted to the next level." The Queen Mother said lightly, as if she was discussing the weather, but she solved this matter in four or two thousand pounds, and even Leng Yexuan couldn't say anything more.
Murong Yining looked at Leng Yexuan and shook his head slightly. She knew that he was doing it for herself, but at this time, it was the most unwise choice.
"Good queen mother, I will make an order tomorrow." Leng Yexuan looked filial. But I was very unhappy in my heart. Although the queen mother is good to herself, she has installed too many people from their family in the **, and last time she talked to the queen so much for this Su Qinhan, even if she didn't love her, she was also his wife.
Murong Yining saw that there was nothing to do with him, so he blessed himself and retreated.
"Huh. I don't look at what kind of goods I am, I really think that my country is beautiful. When Murong Yining walked down, she happened to hear this sentence, she raised her head and looked over, it was a woman who entered the palace with her, and now her position is only a talented person, it seems that her surname is Yu, and after entering the palace, she took refuge in Concubine Yu Su Qinhan.
Murong Yining looked at her coldly, but there were no words.
After Murong Yining sat down, the banquet began. Dancing, stroking, everything is so harmonious, just.
"Ahh With a shout, everyone's eyes were focused on it. The voice obviously came from Concubine Yu's mouth, and she was looking at the queen mother blankly at this time.
"Han'er, what's wrong with you?" The Queen Mother looked at her niece with concern and followed her gaze.
I saw that Queen Yin Xi was sweating a lot on her head, her hands were tightly gripping the armrests of the chair, and under her feet, there were blood stains, which were forming.
"Quick, someone's coming." The Queen Mother also had to exclaim, how can this be good? Even if she doesn't like this niece anymore, even if she hopes that Han'er can be the queen, but what she has in her belly is the emperor's flesh and blood after all, which is sloppy.
And Leng Yexuan picked up Yin Xi and ran towards Qifeng Palace. The crowd hurried to follow.
