Chapter Seventy-Two: Chronicles of Kunning Palace
In the afternoon, the big maid of Kunning Palace came to pass the queen's decree with a smile, and the emperor allowed the queen to select a few powerful and intelligent concubines to go together, and asked the concubines of each palace to go to Kunning Palace to discuss.
When Ning Ge went, she saw that Yuqing, Concubine Liu and others had already sat down, and the queen said that she hadn't gotten up yet, and everyone was talking in one place.
Concubine Liu was in high spirits at this time, and she seemed to be much better when she was favored by the servant yesterday, and she hated to step people into the mud when she looked at them.
It's just that such a person who climbs high and low is always easy to become someone else's pawn, and Concubine Liu is just a chess piece that can be thrown off in the hands of the queen, and when she runs out, she may not be where she will be next time when she runs out this time. It's just that some people don't know it, thinking that this is support, and they show off their nobility.
Ning Ge mourned for her in her heart, and was about to pass by her, but unexpectedly, Concubine Liu's face changed when she saw Ning Ge come in, and the corners of her mouth provoked a sneer with disdain, and when Ning Ge passed by, she swept the eight-treasure tea bowl on the table towards Ning Ge.
"Oops!" Concubine Liu exclaimed nervously, as if she was just waiting to see a good show, and her body never moved.
Unexpectedly, Ning Ge's eyes were quick, and she turned around and grabbed the tea bowl that was already on her skirt, and at the same time quickly poked out her foot, and slightly kicked it on the tea bowl and saucer that was about to land. His wrist flipped at a speed that everyone couldn't see, and he held the tea bowl in his hand steadily, lined the tea bowl and saucer on his toes, and handed it to Concubine Liu beside him.
Everyone saw Ning Ge's clothes fluttering, the beads on his head swaying, and his movements were as smooth as the flowing clouds, and the eyes of the people who were waiting to watch the show were even more playful.
That Concubine Liu was born with a bewitching look, confusing the lord and harming the country, just because she danced an unpopular dance to win the favor, that arrogant appearance made people feel unhappy in their hearts, but they met a fuel-efficient lamp like Ning Ge, only asked them to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, so unhappy.
Ning Ge couldn't understand the psychology of these people, and with a smile on his face while holding the tea bowl, he said, "Why is Niangniang so careless." These eight treasure tea bowls look very precious, not to mention the queen's mother, if this is sprinkled on the sister, it is really going to torment the sister. ”
Concubine Liu couldn't harm people, and when she heard the whispers around her, there was a faint sound of ridicule, and she was very unhappy, but after all, she thought that this was the queen's palace, and she couldn't let people mess with her and be a good person, right?
I saw her smile and was about to take the tea bowl, and said in her mouth: "I'm really sorry, I was a little tired yesterday, and I almost fell off the tea bowl without checking it recently, but fortunately, my sister is quick to see and move, otherwise my sister really can't afford to damage your clothes." ”
Ning Ge's smile was even brighter, and she only put the tea bowl into Concubine Liu's hand, and said with a smile: "If it's anywhere, sister, just be careful." ”
"Oops!" Concubine Liu screamed again, and heard the tea bowl in her hand "Bang!" The sound shattered at her feet, and the tea inside spurted out, and the corners of Concubine Liu's lotus-colored palace dress were dotted with tea. And the place between the legs that was ashamed to speak, it was when the tea was poured that a large piece was poured out, and it looked like urinary incontinence stained the skirt.
But Concubine Liu was still holding ordinary tea bowls and plates in her hands, and she didn't expect such a change at all.
"Sister, even if you dislike the tea brought by your sister, you don't have to use it so hard, look at the good plate when the slave handed it to you, it was broken in half for you. This tea is spilled after all, how can this be good? Ning Ge said nervously.
Concubine Liu's eyebrows were upside down, and she listened to Ning Ge's half-salty tone, and her heart was even more depressed. In addition, the tea was being spilled in that embarrassing place, and when I saw the people around me covering their mouths and not daring to laugh, I was even more annoyed. The silver teeth were almost bitten, and after all, he couldn't help but slap the table, stood up with the broken saucer, and pointed at Ning Ge's nose: "It's obvious that you deliberately broke the plate for me." Hum! I just accidentally almost got the tea on your skirt, but I didn't splash it on you for a minute, you will repay you like this, I have obviously apologized to you, but I still want to take revenge on me. This is Kunning Palace, not your Changge Palace. What crime should you be guilty of destroying the queen's tea set?! ”
Ning Ge took a step back, looking at the appearance of this Liu Concubine shrew scolding the street, her face was pitiful. Yuqing walked over slowly: "When my sister took the tea bowl, it was clearly complete, how could it be that Concubine Ning did it on purpose?" If so, why did Concubine Ning help you save the tea bowl? ”
"You!" Concubine Liu looked at the two of them angrily, her chest rising and falling violently.
Ning Ge refused to give up, as if he was addicted to watching a good show, and just as he wanted to speak, he heard a cold voice coming from behind: "What are you guys doing?" ”
Looking back, everyone hurriedly restrained their expressions and knelt down to salute: "The queen is auspicious." ”
Huang Jiu glanced at some of the people in front of him coldly, and at a glance, he saw Concubine Liu holding the broken tea dishes and plates, and she was lying on the ground crying and trembling. Looking at the tea leaves and water stains all over the ground, the face became even colder.
She held her forehead and said impatiently: "Concubine Liu, I heard you making noise from afar." You came to this palace, Kunning Palace, are you here to disturb the rest of this palace? ”
Concubine Liu hurriedly knelt down again: "The concubine doesn't dare." This Kunning Palace is the supreme place of the harem, even if you give the concubine ten guts, you don't dare to disturb your rest here. It's just a matter of a cup of tea, and the mother wants to be the master of the concubine! ”
As she was talking, Concubine Liu began to cry again, the cry was simply heartbroken, and the ups and downs were pitiful. Yuqing frowned, just wanted to step forward to say something to Huang Jiu, but her hand was tight, and when she looked back, she saw Ning Ge's face calm, a pair of plain white jade hands were clasped on her wrists, and she shook her head wordlessly.
Yuqing understood, knowing that Ning Ge had his own way, so he stood still.
Huang Jiu rubbed his temples, closed his eyes and reopened them, looked coldly at Concubine Liu on the ground and whispered, "What are you crying about?" Can't afford to talk about it?! ”
Concubine Liu stood up tremblingly, and completely displayed the tea-soaked place in front of her in front of Huang Jiu, Huang Jiu frowned, and slapped his hand with delicate armor on the table: "Nonsense! What kind of body do you wear to walk around like this! If you are not in good health, why are you crying here in the palace, don't go to see the doctor! ”
Concubine Liu trembled: "Niangniang forgive the sin, this is not a disease!" The concubine was dressed well when she came. It's just that Concubine Ning came over and sprinkled the concubine's body, you can see how this impartial teachable concubine goes out to meet people! ”
Huang Jiu's eyes wandered between Ning Ge and Concubine Liu, and he said impatiently: "Go, go, go change your clothes and talk again!" ”
Concubine Liu hurriedly said yes, and went down with Yan Xiao.
Huang Jiu fixed his gaze on Ning Ge again: "Concubine Ning, it is good that Concubine Liu at the gate of Cining Palace did embarrass you two days ago, but after all, it is in Kunning Palace recently, why bother to report the flaws?" ”
Ning Ge bent down slightly and said with a smile: "Niangniang, the concubine didn't do it on purpose. It was Concubine Liu's tea bowl that almost landed, and the concubine kindly rescued it. Unexpectedly, when she gave it to her, the dish was broken in half by Concubine Liu, and the tea bowl was broken. The sisters present could see it clearly. ”
"Really?" Huang Jiu asked, "Is that really the case?" ”
She glanced at the concubines standing around, and a trace of fierceness flashed in her eyes, and she saw that everyone's hearts were suddenly clear, and she didn't know what kind of answer this queen mother wanted for a while.
Ning Ge looked around, only to find that the so-called witnesses around him all bowed their heads.
She sneered in her heart, as if she had expected such an ending a long time ago.
Yuqing suddenly said: "Niangniang, the concubine did see it." Since Concubine Ning saved the tea bowl, there is no reason why she has not damaged it again, right? If it is deliberate, then is it deliberate for Concubine Liu to blow the tea bowl towards Concubine Ning at the beginning? It's just a trivial matter of a cup of tea, but it disturbs the mother's rest and hurts the sisterhood, which is really not worth it. ”
Huang Jiu suddenly laughed: "It is worthy of being a celebrity beside the Queen Mother at that time, and she is really empathetic." By the way, you are pregnant now, and the palace has been busy and negligent in the past two days, but please ask for a safe pulse? ”
Yuqing's face turned white when she heard Huang Jiu's words, and she subconsciously stroked her stomach with one hand, and said for a long time: "No." ”
Huang Jiu raised his forehead: "Look at the memory of this palace." Today, there will be a new imperial doctor in the palace, and when the time comes, he will point out to you the palace for fetal use. ”
The topic between Ning Ge and Concubine Liu was brought over like this, and Ning Ge couldn't say how aggrieved she was, but she just thought thoughtfully about Huang Jiu's words.
Even later, Concubine Liu came out after changing her clothes and found that the Kunning Palace at this time was a peaceful scene, and the queen and the sisters of the palaces seemed to have never seen Concubine Liu's arrival, and surrounded Yuqing and the child in her belly to ask for warmth. Concubine Liu could only glare at Ning Ge viciously to chat to vent the resentment in her heart.
It's just that Ning Ge doesn't have the time to care about a mere Concubine Liu anymore. Ben is just coaxing her to play, such a small role is not in her eyes at all. It's just that the queen doesn't know what kind of wishful thinking she is playing now.
When the queen takes care of the harem, she naturally wants to take care of every child of the emperor. It's just that Huang Jiu has always known that Yuqing is the adopted daughter of the Lin family, and now he wants to point it to Yuqing's imperial doctor, which is equivalent to installing a time bomb next to Yuqing, as long as Huang Jiu likes it, it will explode at any time, and there will naturally be people who will be guilty of hurting Yuqing and the child in her belly.
It's just that Yuqing couldn't refuse at this time, Ning Ge secretly scolded herself for negligence, and she never remembered the imperial doctor.
If Yuqing at this time had three longs and two shorts, she would really not be able to rest in this life.
