At noon, the palace people from the imperial dining room brought lunch, and Jiang Suoyue was really tired enough this morning, so she only used it slightly. Pearl Liuli served Jiang Suanyue to rest, and went to take care of trivial matters again.

Because she thought that it was the first day of entering the palace, she was afraid that someone would come to visit, so she didn't dare to fall asleep this night, and after resting for half an hour, Jiang Suoyue called Pearl Liuli to serve her to get up and dress.

Before the bun was curled, Xiao Jizi spread the news outside the door that the Wen nobles from the west hall had come to visit.

Jiang Suoyue hurriedly commanded Pearl to wrap a simple single screw bun, inserted a hollow Ruyi moire mutton fat hosta, hurriedly packed up, and went to the reception.

When she came to the main hall, she saw a beautiful woman sitting on the chair wearing a willow leaf, green and dark flowers, and a moire silk robe, holding a tea cup and drinking tea, presumably the gentle nobleman.

The two sides sat down, Wen Guiren secretly looked at Jiang Suoyue, although she was wearing homely clothes, she did not deliberately dress up, but the graceful posture that could not be hidden, the beautiful face, especially the clear eyes, made her sigh in her heart, there is another beauty in this palace.

Jiang Suoyue also secretly looked at Wen Guiren, and saw that she had a small melon seed face, fair skin, pointed chin, a little broken hair on her forehead, and the temperament of a small jasper, which made people feel pity. There was a bit of loneliness on his face, thinking that it was a difficult time to be unfavored in the deep palace, but there was no jealousy and resentment in his eyes when he looked at him, and his heart should be good.

The two first met, and it was an embarrassing relationship between them and a gentleman working together, so naturally they didn't have anything to talk about, but only briefly talked about their family background, how old they were, or clothes and jewelry, and court life.

When Amber stepped forward to change the second course of tea, Wen Guiren got up to say goodbye, and Jiang Suoyue sent it to the door, watching her go back with the maid.

"There is no shortage of beauties in this palace." Jiang Suoyue opened her mouth faintly, and at this time, Amber, who had removed the teacup, happened to walk to Jiang Suoyue's side, and when she heard this, she was stunned and went out with the teacup in her hand.

After that, Jiang Suoyue received a few palace people who gave rewards to the master, drank a belly of tea, and was busy until dinner.

After grooming properly, Jiang Suoyue asked Pearl Liuli to prepare the clothes and jewelry that she would wear to meet the queen tomorrow, and then they served and rested.

Jiang Suoyue stared at the tent embroidered with pomegranates for a long time, guessing what might happen tomorrow, and thinking of some ways to deal with it, after all, she had just entered the palace, and she didn't know much about the character of the queen of the main palace and the concubines of the palace, and it was always good to be more prepared in her heart.

After thinking about this, I fell asleep.

Early in the morning of the second day, Jiang Suoyue got up to bathe, change clothes, and dress up. This is the first time that the new palace concubines have met the queen and the concubine, and they can't be careless at all.

Since they had already been asked to get dressed last night, they were dressed up very quickly today. One pearl glass is a good rouge gouache on the ground, and the other quickly rolls a Chaoyun near the incense bun, and takes out the purple jade hibiscus hairpin that ordered the pearl to play at home, which is carved into a whole half-opened hibiscus flower with purple jade, the flower is the size of a fist, luxurious and unassuming, and is obliquely inserted between the sideburns. Liuli took out a set of twelve sideburns embedded with the base of the golden lotus of the southern pearl, and the southern pearls were each the size of a small fingernail, and they were worn in the hair one by one.

"It's too many, take down six." Jiang Suoyue said to the mirror.

Liuli quickly removed six of them, let the remaining six scatter in her hair, and hurriedly put on silver thread earrings for her to wear amethysts.

Coral Amber and the two stepped forward with their dresses, waiting for Jiang Suoyue to put on a water shadow red silk begonia pattern robe, and a pearl pink mirror flower silk palace skirt.

Jiang Suoyue checked in the mirror, and saw that this dress was festive and not outstanding, so she nodded with satisfaction, and then ordered: "Pearl and amber follow me." Yesterday there were a lot of people and things, I am afraid that there are omissions, coral, glass will stay here to check and check, especially a good inventory, even if it is the original in this palace, there is no exception, don't have anything illegal. ”

The four of them were busy.

Only high-ranking concubines can be matched, and those of Jiang Suoyue's position can only walk to the Qifeng Palace where Queen Fu Wanzhen is located. Jiang Suoyue walked unhurriedly with pearls and amber, but Amber was an old man in the palace, otherwise there were so many palaces that I might not even be able to find the road.

Along the way, Jiang Suoyue asked about the situation of the harem concubines again, and Amber said softly while leading the way: "Little master, the highest ranking under the queen's mother is Concubine De, and Concubine De is the ......" In this way, she informed Jiang Suoyue of all the important concubines in the harem one by one, Jiang Suoyue listened carefully, and bowed her head slightly from time to time.

Saying this, a cup of tea arrived in front of Qifeng Palace, and Jiang Suoyue saw a woman bowing in front of the palace gate, so she got up and turned around. Amber saw that Jiang Suoyue was a little puzzled, and hurriedly explained softly: "That's a palace concubine below the seventh grade, and she can't enter the palace to see the queen's mother." ”

Jiang Suoyue saw the cruelty of the high and low rank for the first time, and the low rank was not even qualified to meet the queen, so she could only come here every day to kowtow, and then go back quietly.

After settling down, she walked to the palace gate of Qifeng Palace in a dignified manner, and Amber walked to the eunuch guarding the gate of Qifeng Palace to report: "Tingzhuxuan Jiang Liangyuan asks to see the queen's mother." ”

The eunuch then sang: "Tingzhu Xuan Jiang Liangyuan has come to see-"

Jiang Suoyue slowly walked into the Qizheng Palace, entered the main hall, raised her head slightly, and saw that there was no one in the upper seat, Cai Wei, who gave a congratulatory gift yesterday, stepped forward and said: "Jiang Liangyuan came really early, the queen is still freshening up, please Liangyuan will wait a while." ”

Jiang Suoyue replied yes, and sat down in the position led by Cai Wei, and immediately a little palace maid stepped forward to serve tea. She looked around a little, and saw that there were already four or five people coming, all of them in the back of her regular position. After that, except for saluting each other when someone came in, Jiang Suoyue sat upright with her eyes and nose and nose.

After a short time, almost all the harem concubines arrived, and the seats in the main hall were almost full, and there was also an old acquaintance of Jiang Suoyue, Yang Xiaoyi.

Jiang Suoyue only glanced at her and then withdrew her gaze.

A moment later, the eunuch reported that the queen had arrived, and saw a group of people surrounded by a woman in a gorgeous costume appeared in the main hall.

The queen was supported on the throne by the personal female official Caifu, but she was seen wearing a crown of Zhai Fengzhu on her head, wearing a red bird and a phoenix weaving golden cloud brocade dress, with a graceful and luxurious bearing, and an elegant and quiet face.

Everyone bowed down: "The queen mother is extremely happy." ”

The queen looked at everyone with a smile and said, "Get up." ”

She swept her eyes lightly to an empty seat below, and Cai Wei beside the queen understood, and stepped forward and replied: "The queen is Rong, someone from Jinxiang Palace has reported that the second prince suddenly had a fever last night, and Concubine Liang took care of the second prince and could not get out, so she specially sent palace people to come back and forth, hoping that Niangniang would forgive her sins." ”

The queen's eyes froze, where is there something wrong with this Concubine Liang, it is clearly Liwei, knowing that she will not attack with the second prince as a shield, so she wants to let these newcomers take a look at her Concubine Liang's majesty, emphasizing that she Concubine Liang is a person who is a prince, and even the queen cannot be afraid of it.

But the queen is worthy of being a person who has been in the middle palace for many years, and the cultivation of the city government is not comparable to ordinary people, but her eyes flashed and regained her grace, and said: "Since the second prince is unwell-Cai Qin, you take supplements to visit the second prince, and you must instruct the imperial doctor to treat it wholeheartedly." ”

The celery picker standing on the side stepped back.

The queen smiled again and said, "Which ones are the new sisters?" ”

Jiang Suoyue and other new palace concubines hurriedly got up, walked to the middle, stood according to their positions, and paid homage to the queen and concubine together.

The first of the queen's hands is Concubine Liu Yuqing, who is the concubine accepted by the emperor when he was in the palace, and it is said that she has a gentle personality and is very respected and trusted by the emperor, so she handed over the eldest prince with a humble mother to her to raise.

Under Concubine De is Concubine Dou Ruyan, who is the niece of the Queen Mother, with an extraordinary identity and a very beautiful birth, so she is very favored.

The number of people in the harem of Emperor Yongzhao is not very large, the concubines and the four concubines are empty, and there are only two concubines, one is Concubine Zhao Xianrong, it is said that she is not in good health, and she worships Buddha all the year round, and does not often attend various occasions in the harem; The other is Liang Qianqian, the concubine Liang Qianqian, who is absent today, the biological mother of the second prince, and I don't know what her temperament is.

But looking at today's situation, Jiang Suoyue secretly thought to herself that she should have the confidence to have a son, and it seems that she is not dealing with the queen, and it is not easy to think about.

The queen and Concubine De were fine, but Concubine Shu only woke up after a while, and a pair of eyes coldly looked at the new palace concubines one by one, and looked at everyone as if they were ice and snow, and they felt cold.

But when she saw her, she suddenly smiled again, and said to the queen: "They are all beauties, and this palace will be lively in the future." ”

Jiang Suoyue mocked in her heart, lively? It's you who want to compete for a lively life, and then you can watch the excitement from a high place, and then add a little excitement to the four or two thousand catties, you can ask the low-level palace concubines to kill you to the death, but you can watch the fire from the other side, and you don't get involved at all.

The queen smiled calmly: "I hope that all my sisters will serve the emperor and spread the branches for the emperor." ”

Jiang Suoyue didn't think so, who would really want the concubine to give her husband more children? What's more, she herself has no other children except for the eldest princess, but she is afraid that she has already looked at other people's sons.

Speaking of which, this queen is not easy to be, even if she is jealous and depressed, she must maintain the scene in a harmonious manner.
