Chapter 63
Gaogoli is a vassal state of Da Chu, and it is an obligation to pay tribute to Da Chu's beauties, and beauties, like other things in the New Year's Eve every year, belong to things rather than people. These tributes belonging to the emperor are naturally distributed by the emperor, rewarding sons, rewarding courtiers, and the rest will all be received in the harem, not as concubines, but as palace maids.
Occasionally, there are one or two concubines, which is already the limit of grace. Regardless of whether he is favored or not, his mother's family in Gaogoli is soaring. But more tribute-paying beauties became obscure palace maids, and when the emperor died, they were martyred.
"Slave Li Jinzhu ......"
"Slave Li Yinzhu ......"
"See you."
The identical twin sisters knelt down, looking a little frightened, and their words were a little unclear, and they finally made their names clear. Many high-hook beauties don't know Chinese, and they live their lives like dumb.
"Hurry up, please." Su Jinqiu said with a smile, afraid that they would not understand, so he raised his hand again.
The two got up in panic.
Su Jinqiu looked at the big eunuch who brought them over, and said with a smile: "Take a trip to the tired adults." ”
The eunuch of Da Chu has always been very good, and there are martial arts masters, although he doesn't know the name of Lu Dao, he has only seen it in the morning, and he is next to Emperor Yongchang.
"Don't dare to be a servant, the servant runs an errand for the emperor." The big eunuch bowed his head and said, although his expression was respectful, he was not like Gonggong Wei. With his own arrogance, serious and humble, it's just his errand attitude. After a pause, he said: "The emperor also asked the servants to pass the word to the prince, so that he could wait for the prince." ”
Su Jinqiu chuckled, sure enough, he was a big man in the palace, and he had to threaten his master when he ran an errand, so he was afraid that he would be bluffed. smiled and said, "I have written it down, and I will definitely serve the prince well." ”
The big eunuch led the palace people to retreat, Li Jinzhu and Li Yinzhu looked even more helpless, Su Jinqiu looked at them with a smile, and sure enough, they were exactly the same twins, Oriental people looked a little different. At the age of fifteen or sixteen, although Gao Gooli is not a big country, the specially selected beauties must have a bit of beauty.
It's just put in the harem, it's really not very good. The concubines of Da Chu are all selected from the first-order draft, and they are a place where real beauties gather, unless it is a country and a city, it is really difficult to be impressive.
"Sit down." Su Jinqiu said with a smile, looking at the two sisters, she couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic in her heart.
Being sacrificed as a tribute to their own country, and then being rewarded at will, it can be said that from the moment they step out of the country, they are no longer people, but things.
The palace people brought two low stools, and the two of them sat down, and the rules were thorough. Generally, the subject countries send New Year's tribute around March, and they should have been in the palace for a month, and the grandmothers in the palace must have been taught.
"How much Chinese have you learned, can you talk to the palace people?" Su Jinqiu asked the key point first, coming from a foreign country is first of all to communicate, the call is barrier-free, and it is not too late to start talking again, otherwise it will not be interesting if you don't understand it.
Li Jinzhu said indistinctly: "I have learned some from the grandmothers, and I can understand." ”
"Oh, then let's keep learning." Su Jinqiu knew it in his heart, and it was estimated that he had learned it after being selected, that is, a simple conversation. Then he instructed Mama Cui: "Then continue to teach, you must learn to speak." As for the accommodation...... I'm also a newcomer, where do you think it's appropriate to live? ”
Mama Cui, who was asked, also looked very hesitant, looked at Su Jinqiu's face and said: "Although the east and west matching halls are empty, when I first entered this house, I didn't have a title, and it was enough to clean up three rooms in the back cover building." ”
Yizhizhai is only the courtyard of the third entry, and Su Jinqiu lives in the last one of the most rear. The first two entrances are the range of men's activities, and the last one is only left with the east and west side halls, which is a serious main room. After that, there are side concubines, and there are ladies, although there are not yet, but they can vacate the house first and wait for the empty seats.
The two beauties live in the back cover room first, if Yuan Feng likes it, he will be promoted after sleeping a few times, and then move to the matching hall, and the etiquette can also be said to be passable.
Su Jinqiu thought for a while and said, "Since the matching hall is empty, why should you wronged them, it is not convenient for the prince to summon them." Since they are sisters, let's all live in the East Side Palace, and they have to bother the grandmothers to take care of it. ”
Cui Mama breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and said with a smile: "Be kind, be lenient to your subordinates, and the old slave will go." ”
In fact, where the concubine lives is completely the meaning of the hostess. Now there is no one around, and the beauty rewarded by the emperor is no problem in living in the matching hall. Su Jinqiu is too young to sleep, and it is also necessary to arrange someone to sleep. Even without this reward, Su Jinqiu himself had to prepare.
It's just that the time is a little tighter, and on the first day of the wedding, two beauties were sent over. Now it depends on whether Su Jinqiu's qi is big or not, in fact, it is not big, which one can be returned by the emperor.
Li Jinzhu and Li Yinzhu didn't seem to understand, and when they saw Mama Cui taking them away, they hurriedly got up to greet Su Jinqiu.
Su Jinqiu said with a smile: "If you have anything to lose, just come and get it, if you have any dishes you want to eat, just let the small kitchen make it." The palace maids who are waiting also use some heart, they don't know much Chinese, so they say it a few more times. ”
"Yes." Mama Cui agreed repeatedly, with a bright smile on her face.
Regardless of whether Su Jinqiu is really generous or scheming, Su Jinqiu's way of dealing with it is very right. The generosity of the women in the harem is necessary, that is, those who are given to die, and the former Wei is not a special case.
Mama Cui took the two beauties away, Su Jinqiu sighed softly, when she first saw the two beauties, she was a little unresponsive for a while. It's really a commoner for a long time, and when he first entered the palace, he didn't quite adapt to life inside, and he habitually compared the rules outside with those in the palace.
Reward the palace people for yourself, in the palace, the supreme emperor in the world, the prince, is not a matter at all.
"The lord who passed the word just now, which one is in front of the emperor?" Su Jinqiu asked Grandpa Wei about the eunuchs, he must be clearer than the grandmothers.
Father-in-law Wei's smile was a little stiff, but he said with a smile: "It's Lord Ma." ”
"Oh...... No wonder. Su Jinqiu immediately understood that this father-in-law Ma was Sister Wei's opponent. Thinking about the relationship between Fengchi and Yuanfeng, it is normal to see that King Qi's side is not pleasing to the eye.
However, this Ma Gonggong, as well as that Xia Shang Palace, is really so bold, Emperor Yongchang is not old and confused, Feng Qi and Feng Chi have long been adults, not to mention, the emperor and grandson are going to choose concubines.
Gonggong Wei was only afraid that Su Jinqiu would not know what to do, so he hurriedly said: "Master Ma is waiting for the emperor." ”
said that he was Emperor Yongchang and the former No. 1 celebrity in the past, and even Feng Qi gave him three points, and the queen was also kind and pleasant when she saw him. In addition to the Queen Mother, the only two people in the palace who don't take him too seriously, Feng Chi is one, and Yuan Feng is one.
Su Jinqiu nodded when he heard this, and said a little strangely: "It's just to reward the two beauties, just send someone casually, I didn't expect Master Ma to go on a trip by himself." ”
Not only did he run away in person, but he also deliberately said something like that. The beauty of foreign tribute is no different from a pillow quilt, it is just a piece of bedding. Of course, it is her Qi, who is afraid that in the eyes of Emperor Yongchang, she is also a bedding. Of course, it's not just her, it's the same with other women, serious drafts, marrying a daughter-in-law who enters the door, and she is given death in a word. Not to mention the women who were buried when the emperor died, it was killed in batches.
Human rights? Hehe, talking about human rights in front of the emperor is the same thing as looking for death. I still have to remember that when I was not out of the cabinet, I taught Mama to tell her that if you want to live in the palace, then don't treat yourself as a person, no one will treat you as a person.
Emperor Yongchang, as an emperor, just has no bearing, and he really doesn't like her, so he directly gives her death. Stuffing a concubine for his daughter-in-law, that is the practice of a confused old lady in the back house, and Emperor Yongchang has not yet reached this level. I've only heard that the harem concubines play palace fights in order to compete for favor, but I haven't heard that the emperor also plays these.
will appreciate beauty, not to mention deliberately embarrassing her, and I don't treat her as an independent person, how can I care about her feelings. It is estimated that after seeing her, he felt that she was too young to wait on the bed well, and he was afraid that he would wronged Yuanfeng, so he waved it and gave a few more bedding.
As for Yuanfeng, he didn't use it well, so he killed it or gave it away. There is nothing to do, two bedding products are your own, the world is the emperor's, these two are not good, then pick ten or eight, and you can always pick a satisfactory one.
Gonggong Wei's expression flickered, and he said with a forced smile: "Lord Ma respects the prince. ”
"Hehe......" Su Jinqiu laughed, looked at Wei Gonggong and said: "You are the person of His Royal Highness the King of Qi, that is, His Royal Highness the King of Qi will not live in the palace for a long time, and it is easy for him to clean up a minion." ”
Normal high-ranking families can beat the minions at most, or drive them out, and it is not good to cause people to die after all. In the palace, the minions can be dragged out of the palace at any time to be killed. When you meet a master like Yuanfeng, you may do it yourself.
Gonggong Wei immediately knelt down and said with a frightened face: "Spare your life, slave prince, there is no second heart." ”
"I forgive you for not daring." Su Jinqiu said coldly, when encountering a master like Yuanfeng, there are indeed not many people who dare to have two hearts. said: "I'm just a little curious, why did Grandpa Ma tell those words?" ”
sent two beauties, and said that it was good to wait. I certainly don't dare to falsely preach the Holy Decree, but sometimes a sentence will have different effects depending on the attitude of the speaker. Ma Gonggong said so arrogantly, there is a feeling that the evil mother-in-law bullied the little daughter-in-law, if she is really an ignorant little girl, she will definitely think that Emperor Yongchang has a big prejudice against her.
Either I'm scared and crying, or I'm just aggrieved, anyway, no matter how I react, I won't be in a good mood. When Yuanfeng comes back, eight to nine times out of ten will affect him.
Maybe that's what Ma Gonggong wants.
"Minions...... The minions really don't know what to do. Grandpa Wei was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, and he also felt very strange, but how could he dare to guess the reason, he really couldn't guess it.
In case it's wrong, then ...... The consequences are too severe.
Su Jinqiu laughed, looked at Wei Gonggong and said, "Get up, I just asked casually, you are very well-behaved." That's good, I don't know how to talk nonsense. Playing right and wrong, I don't like the prince and I don't like the multi-tongued minions. ”
It's not terrible for a slave to be stupid, but what I'm afraid of is that I have more ideas than the master, and the gossip that I can't say every day will lead the master crookedly if I don't get it right. Just like Emperor Yongchang, if it weren't for that Gonggong Ma, he might not be like that to Feng Qi.
Father-in-law Wei thought that he would be punished, but he didn't expect Su Jinqiu to laugh, looking relaxed, and the speed of the emotional turn made him stunned, the sweat on his head disappeared, but the cold sweat on his back flowed down.
"Thanks." Gonggong Wei said, got up from the ground, but he didn't dare to say a word, and only stood to the side.
This is a powerful master, absolutely careless. Especially at a young age, he can play with people's hearts and palms. Between an angry smile and a smile, it makes people sweat coldly.
Su Jinqiu didn't look at him either, just picked up the tea bowl, splashed the tea bell with the lid of the bowl, and said with a soft smile: "When you enter the gate of Yizhizhai, it is me and the prince's people, who can always protect you." In the future, if you are willing to go out of the palace, or another place for retirement, you can do it. ”
"Yes, the minions will swear to the death to serve the master." Gonggong Wei said with a statement, and his mood trembled even more.
originally thought that it would be good to save his life in front of Yuan Feng, but now it seems that there will be another one. If it's a little bad, it's absolutely possible to be dragged out of the battle by this little one.
After beating the minions, Su Jinqiu also felt tired, and wanted to go to Yizhizhai in the afternoon to take a look around, but he was afraid that it would be tomorrow. After resting, the girls waited and washed their faces, and Mama Cui came in to reply, Li Jinzhu and Li Yinzhu had been settled, and even the people waiting were ready.
"Have you ordered the bed?" Su Jinqiu said, the bedding has been delivered to the door, and she has also placed it properly, whether Yuan Feng wants to sleep or not is his business.
Mama Cui looked at Su Jinqiu's face and said, "Just sent it in, it's going to be ......."
Even if the civil bride enters the door for three days, the bridegroom must also be in the new house. It's just that Su Jinqiu can't round the room, and it seems a little inappropriate to let Yuanfeng go to sleep with a beauty.
"Get ready, the prince is coming back." Su Jinqiu said with a smile, paused and said, "I'm young, I should have them to share it, as long as the prince likes it, everything is easy to say." ”
As for jealousy, she doesn't have that emotion so far. The palace is changing, and the first thing is to live. She is not even interested in the matter of seizing the heir now, and on the first day of taking office, she first figured out her living environment, as well as the relationship with Yuanfeng, and must find a balance.
Don't let Yuanfeng sleep with others or anything, this is not what she should do at the moment. If you can't figure it out, Yuanfeng thought she was too stingy, so she just slept on two beddings.
"What do I like?" Yuan Feng's voice came from the door.
Cui Mama and the others immediately lined up, and Su Jinqiu also stood up and said with a smile: "The emperor rewarded two beauties to the prince, and I placed them in the East Side Palace." ”
"Gogoli's?" Yuan Feng asked casually, his tone was very inappropriate, as if he was sending two people, or two pillows.
Su Jinqiu sighed in his heart, Yuan Feng grew up in the palace since he was a child, and he expected him to treat women as people, but he was really too demanding. But he said with a smile on his face: "Yes, the emperor loves the prince." ”
"Call over and have a look." Yuan Feng said with a smile.
