Chapter Seventy-Eight: Self-defeating

Concubine Rong was overjoyed, and the queen smiled and said jokingly: "With Yang Xiang's ability, there are women who refuse to marry into the Prime Minister's Mansion, which is really interesting." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Could it be that the woman has already been married? ”

In case the queen asks more, Concubine Rong's wishful thinking is not to name names, let the emperor accept it in front of everyone first, and then he will not regret slapping his face. With such a public calculation of the emperor, she can be said to be the first person in the harem, but who let her have a dragon heir in her belly, the emperor is not happy, and he will not get along with her at this time. There are some things that I know are risky, but when I think of the beauty of the thing, I always have to give it a try.

When Emperor Xuan heard what the queen said, he was not as happy as he was just now, and said suspiciously: "What the queen said is reasonable, if the woman already has a marriage match, I rashly refer to the marriage, it is inevitable that there is a suspicion of oppressing the people, which is inappropriate." ”

Concubine Rong turned her gaze to Concubine Ji, who didn't seem to hear their conversation and was laughing with Concubine Zhen bowing her head. The fruit she planted was about to be swallowed with her teeth, and Concubine Rong replied helplessly: "I have never been married, but that woman has now entered the palace to take care of her relatives." ”

The queen suddenly realized: "Sister Rong is referring to the Chen'er girl who temporarily lives in Dexi Palace?" ”

After Zhao Deyi's slapping incident, most of the people in the harem heard about the Chen'er girl next to Ru Concubine, the Shen family was full of beheadings, and it stands to reason that she could not escape death, but the emperor not only did not treat her, but also punished Zhao Deyi who bullied her, and everyone speculated that the emperor would accept her into the harem next, and now Rong Concubine rushed to the front to ask everyone's heart.

Concubine Rong looked at Emperor Xuan, carefully observing the changes on his face, and seeing that he didn't seem to react, she boldly admitted: "It's that Chen'er girl." ”

Emperor Xuan smiled silently, Concubine Rong's courage was very strong, and she still asked coquettishly: "The emperor just promised his concubine to help his concubine's brother marry." ”

Gonggong De secretly felt sorry for Concubine Rong in his heart, the queen followed Emperor Xuan early, and she also saw that Emperor Xuan's smile was very abnormal, but she also deliberately pretended to be confused, lowered her head and picked up the wine glass on the table. Aunt Xia Chun quietly stabbed Concubine Rong from behind, and Concubine Rong felt that the atmosphere seemed to be a little wrong. She couldn't help but panic, looking at the emperor and not knowing what to do, she even forgot to pretend to have a headache and fatigue.

Emperor Xuan stood up, raised the hem of his dragon robe, and walked out without saying a word. Concubine Rong was dumbfounded, the queen followed and left the table, and the other concubines also stood up and left the table when they saw that the emperor and queen were all gone, and what they were still staying to do. A lively celebration banquet ended hastily, and Concubine Rong was really going to lose sleep tonight.

In the Yiqing Palace, Concubine Hua covered her legs with a thick mink blanket, sat cross-legged on the couch, carefully cut a paper window flower on her hand, and the candlelight shone softly on her smooth face, which was so elegant that it made people feel peaceful. When Emperor Xuan came in, he saw such a beautiful scene. He waved his hand to let Wuyan and the others quietly retreat, and he slowly stepped forward and sat down on the other side of the couch.

Concubine Hua looked up and was taken aback, and the scissors in her hand shook and landed on her fingertips, making an oops. Emperor Xuan hurriedly took her hand, only to see a round drop of blood condensed on the tip of the index finger of his left hand, and he opened his mouth without hesitation to take the white jade finger. Concubine Hua's face was flushed with shame, and she seemed to have returned to the delicate nature of her girlhood many years ago. Emperor Xuan held her in his arms and walked to the dormitory, the curtains fell heavily behind the two, swaying a beautiful spring color.

After some clouds and rain in Wushan, Emperor Xuan leaned on the head of the bed with satisfaction, gently caressed Concubine Hua in his arms, and asked, "Why didn't Qing'er go to the banquet tonight?" But I want to be promoted to Rong Concubine, so Qing'er doesn't like it? ”

Concubine Hua rubbed in his arms like a child, and said softly: "Shiro thinks too much, Concubine Rong has a meritorious role in carrying the dragon heir, and Shiro should be promoted to her position, why is Qing'er displeased?!" It's just that the weather is getting cooler, and there is a faint pain in my legs, so it's inconvenient to go out. ”

Hearing this, Emperor Xuan stretched out his palm to cover her left knee, gently kneaded it for her, and whispered in her ear: "It's hard work, if it wasn't for the arrow to block for me, you wouldn't have suffered from leg disease for many years." ”

"Qing'er is not bitter, for Shiro, Qing'er sacrifices anything." Concubine Hua stretched out her hand to hook his neck and said affectionately.

"Actually, it's not just about promoting her." Emperor Xuan said slowly: "If it is said that there is merit in giving birth to a dragon heir, who in the harem can compare to Qing'er's merits, I am ready to take this opportunity to promote you to a higher position for you." ”

Concubine Hua raised her head and pushed, "Qing'er doesn't want this." ”

"I know." Emperor Xuan said apologetically: "I can't fulfill the promise I made to you back then, and I always feel that I owe you too much......"

"No, Shiro has already given Qing'er the best of everything, and Qing'er is content." Concubine Hua said faintly.

The next day, Emperor Xuan got up early to go to court, Concubine Hua got up, and the palace maids entered in turn to serve her to groom and dress up. Lan Yan took the jade comb, stood behind her, and helped her comb her hair from the scalp to the ends of her hair with just the right amount of strength, Concubine Hua had the habit of relaxing her scalp every morning, but it was generally only handed over to the two sisters Lan Yan and Wu Yan to complete. Wuyan took the jasmine oil and stood next to her to tell her what happened at the banquet in the Colored Glass Hall last night.

Concubine Hua chuckled and said: "It's really stupid, but whoever enters this Ho'an City, no matter what the reason is, the emperor thinks it's his woman, and stretches out his hand to control the emperor's woman, isn't this a clear concern for the emperor's belongings?" No wonder the emperor came to Yiqing Palace before the banquet was over last night. ”

Wuyan asked with a smile: "Speaking of which, in addition to being a little domineering, this Rong Concubine really has no brains, and she is too far behind her father who is the right minister." Yang Xiangming was smart for a lifetime, but the pair of children he raised were disgraced to him. ”

The master and servant all laughed, and Lan Yan asked, "Will the emperor still promote her position?" ”

Concubine Hua said: "Definitely, Yang Xiang has done the emperor a great favor this time, and she is pregnant again, the emperor should always reward the Yang family." ”

Wuyan said proudly: "No matter if she is promoted again, she will not be able to press the head of the mother, who makes the emperor's heart only on our mother!" ”

Concubine Hua glared at her: "How do I usually teach you?!" Gather in all those crazy faults, no matter how happy you are, don't show it on your face, have you forgotten?! ”

Wuyan was so frightened that she immediately knelt at her feet, and said in fear: "The slave should die, the slave and the maid should not be happy for a while, and forget the teachings of the mother!" ”

"Get up." Concubine Hua said lightly: "How is the Dexi Palace over there?" ”

Seeing that Concubine Hua had spared herself, Wuyan hurriedly got up and replied respectfully: "It's not that the wall is down and everyone is pushing, all the bureaus have begun to pinch the Dexi Palace, Ru Concubine is still in a slump, and her sister has not made any moves." ”

Concubine Hua instructed: "Bei Yuan, I'll go over and see her in a while." ”
