Chapter 21: The Grace of the Queen Mother

The two hugged each other and slept, and the next day they went to the Buddhist hall to sprinkle and sweep, and found that there was not much sandalwood in the Buddhist hall, so they told Mama Ji to go to the Internal Affairs Office to get some. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The head of the Internal Affairs Office recognized the two as the palace daughters of Renshou Palace, and said with a smiling face, "What is missing from the Queen Mother's side, send someone to say it, the slave should personally send it over, and also ask the two girls to run a trip, it is really a dereliction of duty on the part of the slave, the two girls will go, and the slave will immediately buy it and send it over." ā€

There were two small round dimples hanging from the corners of Wan Xin's mouth, and she smiled sweetly: "How can this be so bothered by the chief manager to send it in person, how many errands in this palace are waiting for the chief manager's orders, how can I make trouble for you again, the slave maid still waits for herself to take it back." ā€

"How can I wait so much for the girl, let's go with the slave to get it." Manager Zhao listened to it and took the two of them to get sandalwood, complaining as he walked, "If the palace can understand the difficulties of the slave like a girl, the servant will not be so the errand of the internal affairs office." ā€

Wan Xin heard that Manager Zhao seemed to want to use her mouth to convey a message to Renshou Palace, so she pretended not to know and asked, "Did Manager Zhao meet someone who didn't deal with him?" ā€

Manager Zhao was waiting for Wan Xin to ask this, and secretly pointed over there, complaining: "This year, there are new people in the palace, there are more masters, and there are only a few copies of the best incense powder, and the favored lady can't share it, no, the people from Yonghe Palace want to take the best, and the slaves are worried?" ā€

Qingling followed the direction of Manager Zhao, and a palace maid who was acting violently was scolding the Internal Affairs Office, so she stepped on it and didn't take her master seriously.

"Isn't this the green ping of Yonghe Palace?" Luping Qingling recognized it very clearly, on the day Concubine Hui slipped the baby, her screaming voice had made her sleepless at night.

"Exactly, the emperor hasn't been to Yonghe Palace for more than half a year, so who will she want to put on a good incense powder. Do you still think you are the only pet in the special room? If the slave didn't give it, she made a fuss. Manager Zhao's eyes rolled, and these words reached the ears of the Empress Dowager of Renshou Palace, and the Empress Dowager, who was already dissatisfied with Concubine Hui, waved her fingers, which was enough for Yonghe Palace to drink a pot.

"Manager Zhao, the time for the Queen Mother to worship the Buddha is coming, the sandalwood is waiting to be used, the slave and maid should take it back quickly, if the Queen Mother is delayed to worship the Buddha, the slave and maid can't afford to eat the sin." Wan Xin's cleverness was brought into play at the right time, urging Manager Zhao to wrap sandalwood and hurry out of the Internal Affairs Office.

The two walked through Yongxiang, Qingling lowered his head, counting the green bricks under his feet, it has been more than half a year since Concubine Hui slipped a tire, but Concubine Hui's jealousy is afraid that it will be difficult to eliminate in this life. Wan Xin couldn't hold it back, "Sister, is Concubine Hui going to regain her favor?" If she makes a comeback, the first person who can't get over it should be you, what can I do? ā€

"Concubine Hui's child is gone because of me, she hates me and deserves revenge on me." Qingling raised his head and looked at the blazing sunlight above that had climbed to the high wall of Yongxiang, and Yaoren couldn't open his eyes. What should come will come eventually, I'm afraid it will be useful?

Everyone in the palace has their own thoughts, and the scorching summer shines on the earth, treating everyone equally, regardless of each other. When the scorching sun shone into Yonghe Palace, Luping was kneeling at the feet of the concubine and crying. Niangniang has been lazy for more than half a year, and the Internal Affairs Office is not diligent, not to mention that the clothes and supplies assigned to her are outdated, and the quality is several levels lower. went to the Internal Affairs Office, not only did he not get what his mother needed, but he was beaten by the chief manager Zhao Lianhai and returned to Yonghe Palace empty-handed.

"Luping, are you shedding tears for such a trivial matter? The things taken out by the Ministry of Internal Affairs are not rare in this palace. There is a lot of silver in Yonghe Palace, just go outside the palace to buy it, spend a lot of silver, what else can't be bought? Concubine Hui Xu Ziyan's eyelids blinked, and her jade-like eyes were full of disdain, "I used to think that he was also sincere to me, and this palace disdained to use these little tricks to compete for favor, but now, this palace understands that he is such a thin heart, no matter what means, no matter what tricks, this palace will be used one by one." ā€

Luping wiped away her tears, her eyes flashed with refusal to admit defeat, as long as the master could cheer up, she would do anything willingly.

"The mother is wise, the slave and maid will go to the palace to procure. Niangniang, although the emperor is cold to Yonghe Palace, he is still very good to Niangniang's brother. Last month, the Shilang Mansion sent a lot of things and silver into the palace, should the mother also reward some things, the slave and maid went out this time, so that they could be brought to the Shilang Mansion. "Luping is a pungent character, and the anger in her heart was sent to the back of her mind by the master's few words, and she planned it for the master.

"My brother has newly renewed the concubine of the Jiang Mansion of Honglu Temple, and the palace remembers that there was another concubine of the Jiang Mansion who was selected for the palace in the draft last year......" Concubine Hui remembered that her brother's letter had mentioned this matter, and she was sad about the slippery tire at that time, so she didn't go to heart. has been cold by the emperor for more than half a year, the world is hot and cold, and the warmth and coldness of people can be seen through, and none of the emperor's three palaces and six courtyards have ever been to Yonghe Palace. In this harem, it's always good to have someone of your own to help you out.

"Niangniang is talking about Jiang Wanxin, the daughter of Renshou Palace? The slave maid has only seen it in the Internal Affairs Office, although the appearance is not as beautiful as the mother's crown, but it is also a flower and moon appearance, which is endearing and pitiful. If there is a person in the palace who helps Niangniang accompany the emperor more, what else will happen to those individuals? "Luping is a loyal slave, and naturally he is also a witty minion, he thinks that his appearance is not bad, and he has also dreamed of flying on the branches and becoming a phoenix, but he is a slave after all, where can he compare to the noble status of the mother's brother's family.

Concubine Hui took a sip of tea, "You go, the reward of the Shilang Mansion will naturally be rewarded by the emperor before the honor and dignitary, and now the most important thing is to let those little hooves who are high and low know that it is Yonghe Palace that stands tall in this harem." ā€

It was still hot, and there was not a trace of rain. The Imperial Garden is entrenched in countless cicadas, which are annoying from morning to night. However, there is a delicate and incomparable figure in the imperial study and the Qinzheng Palace, Concubine Hui has regained her favor, and the emperor stays in Yonghe Palace at night, and it is still the atmosphere of the exclusive favorite.

On this day, the emperor and Concubine Hui came to Yonghe Palace hand in hand to ask for peace, the Queen Mother calmed down, asked Concubine Hui's body, and told Concubine Hui to take good care of her body and conceive a dragon fetus as soon as possible.

I didn't want Concubine Hui to rely on the emperor's favor and behave perversely, so I knelt down and begged the queen mother for a grace at that time, "The concubine lost her child, and she felt guilty every night, and now her body is recovering, but she doesn't know when she will be able to give birth to a dragon fetus again, please ask the queen mother to reward the emperor Wanxin of Renshou Palace, so that she can give birth to the emperor for the concubine Mu Ze Huang's grace and give birth to the prince." ā€

The Queen Mother was calm and glanced at the emperor, "What does the emperor mean?" ā€

The emperor smiled at the corner of his mouth, affectionately stroked the tassel of the pearl string hanging from Concubine Hui's ear, and his eyes and mouth were doting, "Zi Yan lost her child that day, I was very sad, since Zi Yan was relieved, she said anything." ā€

Immediately, the emperor sealed Wanxin in Renshou Palace as Wanchang and gave him the Invitation Moon Pavilion.

The emperor and Concubine Hui went out of Renshou Palace, and the Queen Mother dropped the bowl, "The mourning family remembers that Concubine Hui's brother married the daughter of the Jiang family of Honglu Temple, and Jiang Wanxin was also a girl sent in by the Jiang family. ā€

Mama Ji had never seen the Queen Mother so angry, so she hurriedly rubbed the Queen Mother's trembling fingers and comforted, "The Queen Mother is not angry, no matter whose idea it is, whose child it is, and it is all the emperor's woman, all for the royal blood." The queen mother might as well take this opportunity to reward Qingling to the emperor, and with Qingling's temperament and appearance, it is also possible to share the favor of Concubine Hui. ā€

The Queen Mother pondered for a long time before she spoke, "Qingling, this child has a quiet temperament, but when she is placed by the emperor's side, the mourning family is always reluctant, and now Concubine Hui is back in favor, Concubine Xian and Yu Guiren still have big bellies, and they are useless, so someone has to come out and fight against her. ā€

Qingling and Wanxin's errand in the Buddhist hall had just been completed, and as soon as they returned to their residence, they poured a glass of water and had not yet entered the mouth, when they saw Mama Ji leading a large group of palace maids and eunuchs in.

Qingling saluted Mama Ji and asked, "Auntie, what are they doing here?" ā€

Mama Ji smiled, and her eyes swept over Zhao Lianhai, the head of the Internal Affairs Office, "Let's talk about it!" ā€

Mr. Zhao led the errand of the Internal Affairs Office, and the lord of the harem was still the Queen Mother, and he stepped forward with a shy face: "Jing Chang is in Daxi, Wan Chang is in Daxi, the emperor has a will, Jing Chang is temporarily living in Yu Jinxuan, Wan Chang is living in the Invitation Moon Pavilion, because it is out of the Queen Mother's palace, the emperor also deliberately set the title, this is a rule that has never been in the palace, the slave is here to congratulate you, please Jing Chang move to the new house after changing clothes." ā€

After understanding what Mr. Zhao meant, the two of them widened their eyes in astonishment, and knelt at the feet of Mama Ji together: "Please aunt return to the emperor, the slave maid serves the queen mother wholeheartedly, there is no other thought, the slave maid does not want to be always there, please take back the emperor's life." ā€

Mama Ji wanted to pull up Qingling Wanxin, but the two of them knelt down, so they didn't get up, so she smiled and said, "Sending you to serve the emperor was originally the intention of the Queen Mother, and it is good to be able to understand the Queen Mother's hard work in loving the emperor, don't kneel, hurry up and thank you." ā€

Qingling grabbed Mama Ji's shirt and cried: "Auntie, the slave and maid are sinful people, they are loved by the Queen Mother, chanting sutras in the Buddhist hall to atone for their sins, the slave and the maid only want to serve the Queen Mother in this life, and there is absolutely nothing more than to think about it, and the slave and maid do not want to go out of Renshou Palace until they die, please pity the old man of the Queen Mother and the slave and the maid." ā€

Wan Xin also cried, "The slave maid serves in Renshou Palace, and she has long regarded Renshou Palace as her home, and the slave and maid will not go anywhere, and the slave and maid will stay in Renshou Palace to serve for the rest of their lives......"

At this moment, I saw a graceful and noble lady with a loving and gentle face walking into the hut, it was the Queen Mother, and everyone in the house knelt down with hula la la, "Greetings to the Queen Mother!" ā€

The Queen Mother waved her hand, "That's it." ā€

She slowly paced to the stool in the room and sat down, and said to Qingling, "Quietly, the mourning family heard what you said just now, and the mourning family knows that you have done something wrong, but the mourning family can see that you are a child who is peaceful and polite, chanting scriptures is atonement, and taking care of the emperor for the mourning family is also atonement." The mourning family is old, it is enough to have auspiciousness to accompany you, as long as you serve the emperor and make the emperor show his face, it is a reward for the mourning family, if you can give birth to a boy and a half girl in the future, the mourning family will ensure that you are safe and sound in the palace for a lifetime. You must know that whether you are a palace maid or a concubine, the women in the harem are the emperor's women, and the emperor is your sky, your earth, and your life. ā€

Qingling realized that he had been given the title of Jing Chang, kneeling at the feet of the Queen Mother, tears rippling, "Queen Mother, the slave and maid are grateful for the Queen Mother's great kindness, no matter where the slave and maid are, the heart of the slave and maid is here in the Queen Mother." ā€

The Queen Mother's heart is warm, how long has no one said such warm words to her, she stretched out her hand and lifted Qingling's chin, "It's good to have this heart, child, your appearance is not bad, and your temperament is gentle, as long as you serve the emperor with your heart, the mourning family will not hurt you in vain." Wipe away your tears, let's go. ā€

The Queen Mother got up slowly and swept the eunuchs and slaves who were sweeping the room, "Jixiang, choose a few powerful palace people from Renshou Palace and go to Yujinxuan to serve together." ā€

"Queen Mother, the slaves and maids have already selected four palace maids and four eunuchs, plus Yu Jinxuan's original enough to be quietly called."

Qingling understands that no matter how much drama is done, it can't dispel the taboo of the Queen Mother. said that she was serving, but in fact, the Queen Mother was not at ease with herself, and she wanted to assign someone to monitor her actions. This shows that he is an exception in this palace, the imperial concubine's grace and the queen mother's extrajudicial grace are all connected to a secret.

But I heard the Queen Mother say: "Wan Chang is staying for a while." ā€
