Chapter 10: A Sudden Canonization

Zhaoyang Palace

The concubine was embroidering a veil, threading through it stitch by stitch, and then she looked at it for a while, "I haven't touched a needle and thread for a long time, and it's really a little difficult to pick it up now." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

"The master is honorable, this work should be left to the palace maids to do, how can the master work hard?" Mama Lan said flatteringly.

The concubine shook her head, saw that the needle and thread were correct, lowered her head again, and embroidered stitch by stitch, "From now on, my concubine, who has no family support and His Majesty does not pay attention to it, is worth nothing, and can only stay in Zhaoyang Palace and embroider." ā€

Mama Lan hurriedly persuaded, "Why does the master say this, why doesn't Your Majesty pay attention to the master?" Isn't the spring draft a blessing for the master? ā€

Speaking of this, the concubine was depressed, she stopped the needle and thread in her hand, and sighed, "Mama, if Your Majesty can still think about me in the slightest, he will not let me assist in this draft, because everyone knows that there is another woman in the Murong family who is going to enter the palace, and this woman also has the support of the Murong family, so isn't it a great irony to let me, a woman from the Murong family, who has lost power, choose another woman from the Murong family who is in power?" ā€

She shook her head again, threading the needle and threading the handkerchief, "I have become the laughing stock of this harem, and I don't even want to go out of this Zhaoyang Palace."

ā€

Mama Lan also knew in her heart that the position of the concubine was embarrassing now, and she didn't know how to persuade her, so she had to change the topic, "Master, did you say that Concubine Su would come to Zhaoyang Palace?" ā€

is very confident in this concubine, "She will come, if she wants to know the truth back then, she will definitely come, but it is a matter of time or time." ā€

"Master, what happened back then that Concubine Su still hates the queen to this day?" Mama Lan asked curiously.

The concubine only smiled mysteriously and wiped her scalp with a needle, "Don't say, don't say, I just happened to find out about it back then, but I didn't expect it to be useful now." ā€

The concubine didn't want to go into details, Mama Lan knew the way of being a slave, and the master didn't want you to know, as a slave, you shouldn't ask more, so she talked about the upcoming Lantern Festival, "There are so many festive days recently, and soon after the New Year, it will be the queen's mother again, no, in a few days, it will be the Lantern Festival again, it seems that Your Majesty is going to feast the ministers again." ā€

The concubine smiled slightly, and chatted with her easily, "It's nothing to do with us, it's better to keep a low profile before our cousin enters the palace and gives birth to the prince, although we lose the support of the Murong family, sometimes I think it's not necessarily a bad thing, as long as we survive this period of time, the new Murong family's woman has become a thorn in everyone's eyes, and we will be safe, but during this time, it must be cynical, what we need is patience and waiting." ā€

"It's good that the master can think so." Mama Lan's eyes were red, "It's time to grieve the master." ā€

"Don't be aggrieved, how can people always be proud, just like the queen at that time, I will wait to see her down-and-out appearance in a certain future."

The concubine gritted her teeth, vigorously threaded the needle through the handkerchief, and used the soft embroidered handkerchief as the queen's heart, piercing it one by one.

waited until the Lantern Festival arrived, and the concubine didn't wait for Concubine Su, but in the Lantern Festival dinner, she waited for a sudden but not unexpected thing.

The Lantern Festival dinner, as Mama Lan said, Emperor Qingping feasted the ministers, and the queen also feasted the wife in the apse, which was similar to the Qianqiu feast not long ago, but for the concubine, in just a few days, everything was different. At the time of the Qianqiu feast, she was still an arrogant concubine, able to override the concubines, only under the queen, but at this time, although she was still a concubine, she was dispensable, a harem woman who lost the support of the family, a woman who was not favored by the emperor, she had no confidence, her arrogance was gone, she became kind and kind, her voice was not high, but she spoke softly, she changed from a noble and domineering concubine to a good temper, but it only took a few days.

Xiao Ping saw all this, he thought that this was a kind of transformation, the concubine used to go too smoothly, and liked to come brightly, for example, on the day of the Qianqiu feast, he borrowed a Buddha bead to sing against the queen on the day of the Qianqiu feast, and the far one was blatantly poisoned in Concubine Li's medicine three years ago, and now the concubine who has lost her support knows how to forbear, plus he is also a smart person, he believes that they will live well and live to watch the big drama that the palace continues to stage.

Lantern Festival banquet, the queen presided, and it was another gossip chatter of the ladies, flattery and flattery, and when it was lively, there was a eunuch in the front hall who sent a holy message, which made the front and harem shake three times.

"On the occasion of the Lantern Festival, I have been on the throne for thirteen years, and the crown prince has been vacant.

After listening to the holy oracle, she was silent for a while, and the queen's dignified smile couldn't be maintained, she grinned, "Today's Lantern Festival, and my emperor canonized the crown prince, two happy events, this palace invites you to drink this cup." ā€

The queen, who has always been graceful, suddenly heard that her son was named the crown prince, and she also lost her temper, drank a cup, and fell away.

Of course, no one in the concubines and concubines present dared to criticize the queen, but they were sycophants and hurriedly flattered, what queen has a good amount of alcohol, how is the prince, a lot of good words were thrown at the queen without money, the queen nodded in response, and her voice was loud.

Instead of being in the same camp as the queen, they just sat silently in their seats, making eye contact with each other, as if they were discussing fiercely, but there was no result.

The concubine smiled peacefully, she looked at Concubine Su opposite, and saw Concubine Su's momentary gaffe, her body trembled, and her face was solemn.

Xiao Ping was paying attention to the expressions of the three princes and the four princes, although the three princes were still lazy, but the unwillingness hidden in his eyes was exposed for a moment, Xiao Ping caught it, the three princes also have their own ambitions, Xiao Ping thought to himself, and the fourth prince Xiao Shan, his eyes were clear, and he couldn't see any thoughts, Xiao Ping's judgment was that he was a moody person, he was not simple, although he was unusually lively in front of outsiders, but this lively surface was like the laziness of the three princes, his own childishness, It's just pretending to be seen.

At the end of the banquet, the queen was slightly drunk and shouted, "Let's disperse, it's late at night, let's disperse." ā€

The noblewomen dispersed according to their words, and the concubines did not leave their respective families, and the noblewomen just nodded from a distance with the Murong family, then turned around and left, and returned to Zhaoyang Palace.

The second lady looked at the noble lady who was gone away worriedly, but the third lady who was still charming next to her snorted dissatisfiedly, the old lady sighed silently, and the eldest lady was silent on the side.

Late at night, a black-clothed man in black came to Zhaoyang Palace, this person also entered the palace smoothly, entered the main hall, she put the black hat away, showing a face, it was Concubine Su.
