439. Section 438
When Shu E heard it at first glance, she was stunned at first, and after thinking about it, the words "Yiqian Meihao to show Longen" seemed to be a sealed word. Shu E didn't expect the queen to suddenly ask this, and a blank look appeared on her face for a while.
"Haven't you had time to read the will given to you yesterday?" The corners of the queen's mouth were faint smiles.
Shu E suddenly said hurriedly: "The slave maid has not yet consulted. ”
The queen smiled: "In the future, call yourself a concubine immediately, the word slave and maid, don't export it again." After a pause, he continued: "The latter is 'But Ke is diligent in the beginning and the end, and it is eternal in Fulu.'" Think about it, help me to turn the wind'. Remember? ”
Shu E nodded.
The queen said softly: "This is the emperor's expectation of you, and it is also my expectation of you. De Rong's words, you are all carefully selected by the Queen Mother, needless to say, these are good, and I don't need to say more. But the words of the Holy Decree, remember them well. ”
Shu E said goodbye and agreed.
The queen hurriedly asked Zhanxi to help Shu'e up, and said with a smile: "That's all I have to say." Now the queen mother is seriously ill, the emperor is busy with government affairs, and there are many trivial matters in the harem. Yang Jieyu and Qin Meiren both have their own difficulties, only Shun Jieyu helps me alone, and there are often times when I can't get around. There will be something that needs your help in the future, and you have to be careful. ”
Shu E hurriedly said: "If you can help the queen relieve her worries, the concubine is naturally willing." It's just that in terms of qualifications and talents, there are people who are better than me. ”
For a while, Zhanxi made tea, and the queen looked at Shu E and smiled: "People with more seniority than you, for example?" ”
Shu E said: "If you say that you help the queen deal with the affairs of the harem, Concubine Kang and Concubine Rong, who has just returned to the palace, are both suitable people. In terms of seniority alone, it is longer than that of concubines, and that is more. ”
The queen smiled and said, "Yes, there is." I just don't have that talent. He took a sip of tea and said, "Are you okay with this tea?" ”
Shu E saw that the tea soup in the bowl was blue and blue, and the aroma was very pleasant, and the taste was also fragrant, and she smiled: "Good fragrant tea." ”
"This is after returning to the dynasty from Yujin Garden, the new Xie Yuan tea, the wonderful thing is that the soup is green, and the tea leaves are like tender bamboo. I've sent some to you, I think you haven't eaten yet. The queen said slowly, her tone soft, just like the elegant light smoke wafting on the tea bowl.
Shu E said "yes", and said: "Most of the concubines' food, clothing, and refreshments come from the queen's rewards, and the concubines have always been grateful. ”
Zhan Xi on the side suddenly said: "There is also a pound of good Fengyu tea, the queen originally said to give each punishment a point, but unfortunately it was all ......"
The queen frowned slightly, said "Zhanxi", and waved her hand to retreat. Shu E's heart sank slightly, remembering that when she returned to Yong'an Hall last night, what Zihao brought was the Fengyu tea that Zhanxi said.
At one time, a report came from outside, and all the concubines came to ask the queen for peace, and the queen walked out of Lu with Shu'e.
The main hall of the Kunning Hall is very open, and under the queen's seat, there are sixteen circle chairs on the left and right. Shu E sat under the seat of Qin Meiren according to her position.
The concubines who came came greeted the queen one after another, greeted each other, sat down in order, and gossiped with the queen. Everyone came one after another, only Concubine Rong and Qin Meiren had not yet arrived.
The queen looked at the seat of the Qin beauty and said with a smile: "The Qin beauty is gradually sinking, and she must be very tired last night with the distinguished guests. After speaking, he turned his head and said to Zhanxi: "Wait a while to go to the Yaoyang Pavilion to have a look, and ask Qin Meiren how she is, what she ate in the morning, and whether she has drunk the fetal pills." Zhan Xi hurriedly answered one by one.
At this moment, Concubine Rong Li walked in with a palace maid, and when she heard the queen's words, she smiled and said, "Since Qin Meiren is pregnant, she should have a good rest last night." The emperor and the queen had asked her to rest, but she insisted on staying for so long. ”
The positions of all the concubines were under Concubine Rong, and when they saw Rong Fei coming in, they all stood up one after another, and they were blessed.
Concubine Rong didn't see her, nor did she salute the queen, but just stood and sat down with the queen, and continued: "The queen said that she was for a distinguished guest, but it was really difficult for her. But I don't know that in Qin Meiren's heart, what kind of guest can be more important than her children. ”
Shu E secretly thought in her heart that this Rong Concubine Li was not a provincial figure. This is clearly saying that Qin Meiren finally retired from the table yesterday in order to accompany the emperor. Thinking of the emperor, Shu E's cheeks couldn't help but flush slightly.
Sure enough, Concubine Rong said slowly: "If you want to accompany the emperor, it depends on whether the person the emperor thinks about is her." After finishing speaking, if intentionally or unintentionally, he set his eyes on Shu'e.
The queen smiled slightly and said, "Jingping, you went all the way yesterday, didn't you also go out of your way to accompany the two eldest princesses and the eighth princess?" The two eldest princesses and the eighth princess, aren't they important guests? ”
Concubine Rong snorted lightly, stopped talking, bowed to the queen, and sat down in the position of the queen's hand.
The palace maid behind Concubine Rong stood in place, made a big salute to the queen, and said, "The queen is blessed." ”
I saw that this palace maid's dress was different from that of ordinary palace maids and teachers, and Shu E didn't know this person.
Concubine Rong looked at the queen's face with a slightly surprised look, and said with a smile: "What's the matter, doesn't the queen know her?" ”
The queen smiled and said: "After three years of farewell, the palace maids around Concubine Rong have become more and more demure. ”
Yang Jieyu said curiously: "Is this the palace maid next to Sister Rong?" The concubine thought that Concubine Rong's sister brought it from the Shangqing Palace. is so silent, in front of the queen, why don't you know your name? ”
Concubine Rong's beautiful Danfeng eyes swept over Yang Jieyu's face, and she said lightly: "Chunxi, you have been promoted to Jieyu, I haven't congratulated you yet." ”
Yang Jieyu's face was sad that could not be concealed, and she said softly: "Thank you Sister Rongfei for having a heart, but it's a pity that Chunxi is blessed." ”
Shu E looked at the sad look on Yang Jieyu's face, and couldn't help but feel sorry for her in her heart. It was the queen who persuaded: "It's over, don't be sad anymore." It's important to take care of your body. ”
The queen looked at Yang Jieyu and wiped the corners of her eyes, answered "yes", and then turned her gaze to Concubine Rong's palace maid.
The palace maid hurriedly said: "The slave and maid Xu Songknot." ”
The queen nodded and smiled: "You have followed Concubine Rong for three years, and you have served meritorious." He turned back to Zhan Xi and said, "I rewarded the pair of pearl-inlaid hairpins to Xu's." ”
Xu Songjie hurriedly saluted and thanked him, got up and walked to Concubine Rong's side.
Concubine Rong's phoenix eyes looked at the queen almost all the time, until Xu Songjie walked to her side, her eyes slowly moved to Xu Songjie's body, looked at her for a long time, and then said: "Why, on the day of leaving the palace, the queen promised you, the queen forgot a lot of things, and you also forgot it?" ”
Xu Songjie seemed to be very frightened by Concubine Rong's fierce gaze, lowered his head, and said in a low voice: "Slave maid...... The slave did not dare to forget. ”
