Chapter 9 The first signs of the show
However, just after packing up two changes of clothes, Aunt Jinyun found her. "Auntie, why are you here?"
Jin Yun smiled and stepped into the threshold, bowing to Yu Yuqing: "Yu Cai girl, do you want to disturb you?" ”
"Oh, no, is there something wrong with my aunt?" Yu Yuqing responded with a smile. "That's right, two days ago, Concubine Shu asked us to make an embroidery with an apricot blossom pattern, which should have been sent over today, but my aunt can't leave at this time. I heard that the jade girl is going to go to the weaving and embroidery bureau, so I don't know if I can trouble the jade girl to bring it to the lady concubine by the way? "What should I do," Yu Yuqing smiled lightly, "Auntie, don't be so polite." Anyway, I have to go through the Qixia Palace of Concubine Shu, so I'll help my aunt bring it over. "It turned out that the Weaving and Embroidery Bureau came to send a new spring dress to this year's Cainu two days ago, but Yu Yuqing accidentally scratched a seam just after getting it on her hand, so the Weaving and Embroidery Bureau took it back and repaired it again. Originally, the female history of the Weaving and Embroidery Bureau was going to come today to send the repaired clothes, but Yu Yuqing proposed it herself, so she didn't need to trouble them, and she came to the Weaving and Embroidery Bureau to receive it when the time came. In fact, she did this to make herself more familiar with the things in the harem, anyway, there are not many opportunities to go out of the West Garden, so it is better to take this opportunity to walk around the palace more, and there is nothing wrong with understanding it deeply. "Then the slave and maid will thank the jade girl." Jinyun didn't expect Yu Yuqing to be so easy to speak, so she hurriedly thanked her, and didn't forget to tell her a few words, "Oh yes, Yucai girl, when you arrive at Qixia Palace, let the palace maid pass it on and hand over the embroidery to Xianglan, she is the palace maid in charge of Qixia Palace, and she will transfer it to Concubine Shu." You don't know, Niangniang's temper is good and bad, so you don't need to meet Niangniang in general for trivial things, Xianglan will handle it herself. "Understood, auntie." Yu Yuqing nodded seriously, and said in her heart that Concubine Shu was really as unpredictable as she saw on the day of the banquet. "Then the slave and maid will thank the jade maid again, the slave and maid have taken their leave, and the maid should be careful on the road." Jinyun saluted and left with a smile. "Auntie, let's go." Yu Yuqing sent Jinyun to the door. -- Long sky and clouds. Yu Yuqing held two clothes in her hand and hummed a small tune, walking on the way to the weaving and embroidery bureau, the sunny weather made her feel refreshed. The weaving and embroidery bureau was easy to find, and Yu Yuqing quickly brought back the spring clothes repaired by the embroiderers. Walk out of the weaving and embroidery bureau and go to the right, and the palace in the depths of the flower shade is Qixia Palace. Yu Yuqing slowed down as she watched, she looked up and stared, and couldn't help but open her mouth slightly in surprise. Because Qixia Palace was originally built according to the standards of the queen's bedroom, but later the queen lived in Fengcheng Palace, so this palace was uninhabited until Concubine Yuan Shu married. In fact, in order to show the importance of marriage at that time, the emperor specially ordered the construction of a new palace for the concubine to live, but after the concubine came, she was not used to living in the new palace. So the queen mentioned yì, saying that the Qixia Palace was high and not humid, which was just suitable for the concubine who had lived in the north for a long time, so the emperor simply let the concubine move over. In fact, strictly speaking, this is also beyond the form, but the reason is reasonable. Besides, after all, Concubine Yuan Shu is the princess of the Qi Kingdom, and she plays a pivotal role in the reconciliation between the two countries, and she is also quite favored by the current emperor, so it is also necessary to raise her status. However, this is enough to prove that Concubine Yuan Shu's current status in the harem is unbreakable. But can she live in such a splendid temple for a long time? As soon as she thought of this, Yu Yuqing suddenly felt excited. "Who are you? What are you doing here? A shrill voice immediately pulled her thoughts back. Oh, I'm here to deliver embroidery to Concubine Yuan. Yu Yuqing hurriedly replied. Standing in front of her was a young woman dressed in Gong'e's clothes, but the texture of her clothes seemed to be much better than that of ordinary Gong'e. The face of the man was like a peach blossom, his eyes were slender, and there were two or three hairpins of different styles on his head, which was extremely delicate. She has a straight body and no smile on her face, which makes people feel like they have to take it seriously. "Oh? You were sent by Jinyun? The woman looked Yu Yuqing up and down. She nodded: "Auntie can't leave at this time, just when I want to come to the Weaving and Embroidery Bureau, I will help my aunt send the embroidery of Concubine Niangniang." knew that the mother was in a hurry, so she didn't dare to slack off. Yu Yuqing replied respectfully, and lowered her head slightly: This woman's eyes are so powerful, she is a little afraid to look directly. The woman showed her face a little: "Well, it's good to know that the mother is in a hurry." Look at you, this girl is clever, but the face is very raw, when did you enter the palace? "End of February." "The end of February? It wasn't the time for new palace maids. The woman frowned slightly. I'm not a new palace maid. "And who are you?" The woman looked at Yu Yuqing again, and seemed to think of something, "Look at your dress, you're really not a palace maid, could it be that you are a maid who just came in?" Yu Yuqing nodded again. The woman said "oh" softly, but she didn't ask "It's good to pick a girl" like other palace maids, which made Yu Yuqing very puzzled, and there was a faint displeasure. "By the way, aren't you going to send embroidery? Just leave it to me. "My aunt said that I would give it to Sister Xianglan, and said that she would give it to Niangniang." Yu Yuqing had actually guessed who the person in front of her was. Sure enough, the woman raised her head slightly: "I am Xianglan." "Sister Xianglan is good." Yu Yuqing greeted at the right time. In fact, there is no need to say hello to the palace maid as a picker, but Yu Yuqing can see that Xianglan has the support of the concubine and regards herself as superior, so she will not take the little new picker girl in her eyes at all. "Well, it's good to pick a girl," the person in front of her was so well-behaved that Xianglan couldn't help but smile, "Leave the things to me!" Xianglan took a step closer and spread her right hand. Yu Yuqing respectfully put the embroidery into Xianglan's hand: "Then I'll bother Sister Xianglan." "You're welcome." Xianglan withdrew her right hand and showed a look of satisfaction, "It's hard to run this trip for the girl, it's hard work." "Don't dare to delay the affairs of Concubine Niangniang, Sister Xianglan is too polite." Xianglan was about to speak, just when the palace maid of Qixia Palace hurriedly ran over and whispered a few words to her, Xianglan's face changed slightly, and she quickly led the little palace maid back to Qixia Palace, and Yu Yuqing waited until Xianglan disappeared from her field of vision before slowly turning around and leaving. Alas, Concubine Yuan Shu is really beautiful! She sighed infinitely in her heart. But she didn't know that at this time, there was a commotion in Qixia Palace. I saw that Xianglan was windy all the way, and the palace maid who whispered to her just now hurried even more slowly, for fear that she would not be able to keep up with Xianglan's pace. Walking through a large expanse of garden, the sound of an object breaking could be heard clearly, and Xianglan paused slightly, and then sped into a room behind this atrium. This is Concubine Yuan Shu's bedroom, which is exquisite and gorgeous, which is very in line with her current identity. "Mother." Xianglan called and walked gently to the soft couch, but the woman on the soft couch ignored her. And the palace maid seemed to be very frightened, standing at the door, bowing her head, Xianglan whispered and told her to retreat. "Mother, what's wrong with you?" Xianglan bowed down and leaned over to Concubine Shu and asked softly. Concubine Shu sneered, and her originally pale face turned red with annoyance. Her hair was slightly messy, and her gorgeous clothes looked a little untidy. "It's not all because of Shun Zhaoyi." She closed her eyes and tilted her head back to inhale deeply. Xianglan looked at the two vases that Concubine Shu had broken before on the ground, and shook her head: "Why is Niangniang angry again?" Didn't the slave persuade the mother many times not to be angry? It's not good for your health. "Can I not be angry when I see Shun Zhaoyi like that?" Concubine Shu supported her head with her left hand, and she didn't have a good airway. The afternoon sun quietly sprinkled on her body, but at this time she was not as bright as before. "Niangniang, say what you have to do, don't hold it in your heart and suffocate your body." Xianglan turned around and poured a cup of tea and handed it to Concubine Shu. Concubine Shu looked at Xianglan, and a trace of tiredness flashed in her eyes: "The weather is good today, and it is difficult for the Queen Mother to come out for a walk, and I just happened to meet her." The Queen Mother said that she hadn't seen the palace for more than a year, and she wanted to talk with the palace, who would have thought that it would be so coincidental, Her Majesty and Shun Zhaoyi passed by, and naturally stayed. Later, when it came to the matter of praying for blessings in the West Mountain, His Majesty Xià didn't know what was wrong, and actually said that he would let Shun Zhaoyi go with the queen, and he had already said that the palace would go with the queen, what do you say? For such an important matter, His Majesty actually excluded the palace in one sentence and let a person with a lower status than the palace go, doesn't this make the palace unable to come to the stage? Didn't you see, just now when His Majesty said to let Shun Zhaoyi go to Xishan, she was so happy, Bengong almost didn't faint by her! "Niangniang, it's just a trivial matter, why be angry?" Xianglan hurriedly stepped forward to rub Concubine Shu's shoulders. "If it's just Shun Zhaoyi, the key is that Your Majesty didn't give me any face in front of the Queen Mother today, so that Shun Zhaoyi secretly didn't say anything, what do you let the Queen Mother think? Can Hongu not be embarrassed? Concubine Shu said hatefully, and the Kodan coated with fresh flower juice sparkled in the sun. The Queen Mother never pays attention to the affairs of the harem, she doesn't think much about it, Niangniang doesn't have to worry too much," Xianglan persuaded, and the conversation immediately changed, "Actually, the slave maid thinks that it is not a good thing for His Majesty to let Niangniang stay in the palace!" "Oh? Let's hear it. "Concubine Shu was a little surprised.
