Chapter 37 The Imperial Concubine Wu Clan
Changkun Palace is the residence of the queen, and the phoenix seat in the main hall of Changkun Palace is naturally only the queen can sit.
But at this moment, sitting on the phoenix throne is the noble concubine Wu who is known for her flamboyant and arrogant behavior.
She sat there on top of her, condescending to look at the future owner of the phoenix seat kneeling in front of her, Lin Yan. Because Lin Yan is only a courtier without any grade at this time, she is only a future queen, while the Wu family is a concubine of the first grade.
Wu Guifei is actually very stunning, her beauty is the kind of touching beauty, glamorous, bright, obviously a woman who is no longer young in her thirties, but the preferential treatment of time has not left traces on her face, and there is not even a trace of fine lines on her face.
She has a pair of narrow phoenix eyes, which only increase her heroism and momentum, making people feel as if she should be high up to accept the worship and worship of thousands of people.
At this time, she was looking at Lin Yan sharply with these narrow phoenix eyes, her eyes were disdainful, mocking, and showing off, her hand was on the armrest of the phoenix seat, and her slender and slender index finger knocked on the phoenix pattern on the armrest.
And she seemed to have forgotten to call up, Ren Linyan, Li Zhuang, and others had been kneeling there, kowtowing to her.
This is a battlefield that belongs to the Lin family and the Wu family, or to Lin Yan and Wu Guifei, and no one else is willing to participate in this battle situation that will be their cannon fodder at any time, rather than letting them enter the battlefield to participate in the battle, they are more willing to drink tea and watch the play or watch by the side, so no one reminded Wu Guifei that it was improper to sit on the phoenix throne, and no one reminded her that she should let Lin Yan and the others get up.
After a long stick of incense (about 5 minutes), Wu Guifei seemed to finally remember, moved her body, changed her sitting posture on the phoenix seat, narrowed her narrow eyes, and said casually: "Get up." ”
Lin Yan and the others thanked them, and then got up. Li was old, and her legs and feet were a little numb after kneeling for a long time, so Qi and Zhuang helped her to stand up.
Wu Guifei focused her eyes on Lin Yan again, bent the corners of her mouth, and said, "This is Miss Lin Si, come forward and let the palace take a look." ”
Zhuang was worried, moved his lips and wanted to step forward to speak.
Li Shi took her hand and told her with his eyes, "Let her deal with it herself." ”
Lin Yan had a smile on her face, there was no worry or fear on her face, she also looked directly at Wu Guifei with a pair of shining and beautiful eyes, and then slowly walked up the steps, walked to Wu Guifei, and then bowed slightly.
Lin Guifei was standing at this time, and although Wu Guifei was sitting on the phoenix seat, the standing Lin Guifei was taller than the sitting Wu Guifei, and it seemed that Wu Guifei was looking up at Lin Guifei, which made Wu Guifei frown a little dissatisfied, but she didn't want to get up from the phoenix seat, so she raised her eyebrows, looked at Lin Yan with a more flamboyant and aggressive momentum, and said: "It stands to reason that you are the successor of the emperor himself, and this phoenix seat should be you, but the winter solstice banquet in the palace today, the emperor asked the palace to preside over it, so the palace sat today." Miss Lin Si, do you think that the palace should give up this phoenix seat for you to sit on today, or should the palace continue to sit and support the winter solstice banquet? ”
There was silence in Changkun Palace, as if no one heard Wu Guifei's troubles, and as if she was saying something very ordinary, even the Li family and the Qi family were all old gods standing there fixedly, and they didn't say anything to help, and the only one with a worried look on his face was the Zhuang family.
Lin Yan pursed her lips and smiled, when she smiled, she always felt that there was an indescribable taste, like a thin morning mist in the morning, with a dewy and wet haze, she replied in a girlish and delicate voice: "Niang Niang asked the courtiers like this, but the courtiers couldn't answer." Niangniang should ask the emperor, this emperor is the master of the palace, naturally he said that whoever should be allowed to sit will be sitting. ”
Wu Guifei looked at Lin Guifei, and Lin Guifei also looked directly at Wu Guifei with a smile. Obviously she is just a fourteen-year-old yellow-haired girl, but in the face of her domineering without the slightest fear or anger, she is light and light, as if she has already seen through her person, and has seen through her powerlessness and helplessness under her domineering - she has accompanied the emperor for more than ten years, she gave birth to the second prince for the emperor, she and the Wu family tried their best to get the position of the successor, but in the end it was still in vain, she could not embarrass her on such an occasion, in fact, there is no way.
This kind of Lin Concubine reminded Wu Guifei of the woman who pressed her below from the palace to the palace, even if she died, she left an indelible mark in the emperor's heart, which could not be dispersed or erased, and could only make them, the women who were abandoned outside the emperor's heart, watch and hate.
So from the very beginning, Lin Yan made Wu Guifei dislike or even disgusted, because she had the same surname as that woman, because she took away the position that she had been trying to get all her life, and because she was so calm and light-hearted at the moment.
Wu Guifei laughed mockingly and said, "Fourth Miss really can speak. ”
Lin Yan said: "The courtiers have been clumsy since they were children, which makes the mother laugh. ”
Wu Guifei said again: "Speaking of which, this palace and the fourth miss are not the first time to meet, the palace remembers that when they were in the palace, the fourth miss often played with the prince, and the fourth lady also liked to chase the emperor at that time, and the emperor followed the emperor with a small tail in the backyard like a small tail behind the emperor. The fourth lady will be made the queen, but I am afraid that there will be signs at that time, is it that the fourth miss will have admiration for the emperor in her heart at that time. Thinking that the Empress Yuan should rest assured below, she can't live to accompany the emperor to rule the world, and now her niece will share the prosperity of the world with the emperor for her, and the Empress Yuan is afraid that she will be happy and comforted. ”
Lin Yan was shy and said: "When I was a child, where was I sensible, I would chase the emperor and run away just because the emperor had the pastries I liked." As for my aunt······" Lin Yan was silent, with a solemn look on her face, and then said in an unquestionable voice: "She married the emperor when she was young, filial piety to the emperor, deference to the concubines, Kun De is on the rails, and Tong is in charge of Wei." The emperor called her a good minister, and the ministers called her a virtuous queen. Although she can't die straight and die young, the history books will not forget her exploits, the emperor will not forget her virtues, her great achievements will remain in the future generations, and her name will be engraved on the history books together with the emperor, becoming a model for the virtuous queen of the Ming Dynasty! ”
Wu Guifei looked at Lin Xian, watched her say these high-sounding words, and kept putting a high hat on Lin Xian, and after a while, she said: "Fourth Miss also said that she was clumsy, look at how well she can talk." "High-sounding words come at your fingertips.
Lin Yan raised her eyes, looked at her and said, "Isn't the concubine Niangniang who thinks so?" ”
Wu Guifei didn't speak, and looked away.
