After the death of Concubine Lide, the power in the harem has also undergone earth-shaking changes, originally relying on the power of her mother's family and her own favor, Concubine Lide can be said to be the most favored person in the harem, that is, Queen Zheng also had to give three points of courtesy when she saw her. But now that Concubine Lide has died, the Yuwen family no longer has the power in the court in the past, and the power in the harem has suddenly shifted.

Now the harem is dominated by the queen's mother, and the concubine and concubine follow her. The queen is the head of the queen concubine who is the lord of the first palace, and the power in her hands is important, but the concubine is not equal, after all, Liqing is most interested in the three princes, and the competition for the position of the prince is also called the weight of the concubine in the harem is not much inferior to Queen Zheng, as for Qin Shujiu.

There is no one in the palace who is favored, and Liqing's mind about her is the sun and the moon, and the heirs are naturally good in hand, but the saint's favor can make a woman dominate the palace, because of Liqing's favor, the power in Qin Shujiu's hands has expanded rapidly recently, that is, there are often people who express the intention of vassal, but also let Qin Shujiu hold half of the power of the later dynasty.

Some time ago, Wang Jieyu was sent to send a good red coral, the color is the best, it is called Qin Shujiu Xi, when it is ordered Nanzhi to thank her. It was also because of this good red coral that Wang Jieyu took advantage of the situation to invite Qin Shujiu into the palace. This Wang Jieyu is now a vassal, and she and Qin Shujiu also entered the palace at the same time, and now the struggle for power in the palace is becoming more and more urgent, and Qin Shujiu has no trustworthy person in his hands. Since Wang Jieyu had this thought, she did not refuse, but was invited by Wang Jieyu.

My Lady is willing to respond, Wang Jieyu should be happy, and Yiye Palace should be ready for everything, just waiting for Qin Shujiu to enter the palace to talk. After Qin Shujiu entered the Yiye Palace, Wang Jieyu waited outside the palace early, and after bowing, she smiled and invited Qin Shujiu into the palace.

Since Qin Shu was promoted to concubine, he has never been to Wang Jieyu's Yiye Palace, and now that he looks at it, it is the same as in the past, and nothing has changed. He also raised his eyes and looked around slightly, and after sitting down, Qin Shujiu said with a smile.

"The layout of my sister's palace is the same as before, and I haven't seen any changes." After the words smiled, Wang Jieyu immediately responded: "The concubine is just Jieyu, but she is not as good as the Niangniang Sacred Heart. Although the Ministry of Internal Service also often sends replacement tea sets, but at a glance, I still feel that this pair is comfortable to use, so I hope that Niangniang will not dislike the concubine here. ”

"My sister is laughing at this, how can the palace dislike my sister is shabby here, and the tea set that His Majesty has personally appreciated in the palace is still used today, which shows that my sister is a person who values love and righteousness. This person who values love and righteousness is most admired by this palace, how can there be dislike. It's just ......"

The words in front of him were good, but the sentence "just" in the back also made Wang Jieyu's heart go up directly, and her heart trembled violently at the moment, and Wang Jieyu hurriedly said: "It's just what? After the inquiry, he smiled when he saw Qin Shujiu, and then said: "It's just that this palace still feels that my sister's palace is really a little simpler, and my sister is also the old man next to His Majesty, so light and simple is really unbearable." The words fell and then looked at Nanzhi, Qin Shujiu said.

"Nanzhi, after a while, I ordered the people in the palace to send the celadon pot, jade ruyi and the glazed sea-patterned porcelain that His Majesty had rewarded earlier."

That is, when the words fell Nanzhi was enlightened, it was also Wang Jieyu, she couldn't stand Qin Shujiu's reward, and even said: "Your Majesty rewards the rare things of the mother, how can the concubines be collected, the mothers still don't have to spend that, the concubines can't afford to be in this palace." "Liqing's treatment of Qin Shujiu's love and righteousness palace is Qingming, and the things that are rewarded to Qin Shujiu are also good, according to Wang Jieyu's current position, she really can't stand the reward of Her Majesty, and she is busy begging Qin Shujiu to receive that reward. It was this rush that caused Qin Shujiu to smile, and then said.

"They are all sisters in the palace, how can they afford to be lined up, not to mention that their sister has served His Majesty for so many years, and His Majesty's affection for his sister can afford these. It's my sister who was pregnant with an heir for Her Majesty in the past.,Just this hard work.,The palace still feels that it's just these that make my sister feel wronged.。 ”

Qin Shujiu's joke was just looking at Wang Jieyu who was willing to accept her thoughts, who knew that an accident poked the deep pain in Wang Jieyu's heart, and at the moment her face was sad and tears were drooping, Wang Jieyu wiped her tears with her sleeve and then said: "The concubine is pregnant for His Majesty, but the concubine is also a blessed person, and she has no life to give birth to a dragon descendant, and even the fetus in her womb cannot be saved." ”

When she was pregnant with a dragon, Wang Jieyu didn't feel happy, but her life was still thin after all, although she was blessed to be pregnant with the heir of His Majesty, but she did not have the life to give birth to the dragonborn. Otherwise, if she was a son or a half-daughter, she would not be just a mere Jieyu now, but she would have become an aging pearl.

This sadness made Wang Jieyu feel heartache, and immediately asked Qin Shujiu to show pity, that is, looking at her, Qin Shujiu said: "Look at this palace, if you don't say anything, you said this, which made my sister sad, but it was the fault of this palace." Qin Shujiu's position can be above Wang Jieyu, even if she accidentally mentioned the old things by mistake, Wang Jieyu can't resent her, she is busy wiping the tears in her eyes, Wang Jieyu said.

"This is the concubine's life, and what the mother said is also the truth, why did she say that apology to the concubine, isn't this a torture for the concubine? If you want to blame the dragon descendant, you can only blame the concubine herself, obviously she is pregnant and the most restful in the palace, but the concubine just can't sit still, and runs outside the palace all day long, but there is also an accident that hurts the fetus in the womb. ”

If she can stay in the palace and raise the baby when she has a body, I am afraid that such a disaster will not happen. Although many years have passed since this incident, I still feel pain in my heart when I think about it now. couldn't see Wang Jieyu's trance-like appearance, Qin Shujiu couldn't help but say: "In the final analysis, it's no wonder that my sister is this thing, although she is good at giving birth during this pregnancy, she can't always stay in the palace." My sister is also for the sake of the dragonborn, so she often goes to the palace to walk, who can know that there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and it happened to such a thing. But my sister doesn't have to worry, my sister is still young, this dragonborn has an opportunity in the future, my sister just needs to be more cautious in the future, don't hurt her body for the past. ”

Wang Jieyu's grace was already plain, and it was purely God's favor to be able to conceive a dragonborn before, and the child back then made her happy, and after she lost it, she also made her feel severe pain. Although many people were also persuaded at that time, saying that they were young, and there were still many opportunities to conceive a dragonborn in the future, but her grace was not prosperous, how easy was it to be pregnant with a dragonborn? Even after the child is gone, Wang Jieyu's stomach is also gone, especially in the past few years, Her Majesty has never been to her Yiye Palace, and this chance is even slimmer.

No matter what, the palace always has to find a place for himself to live, so as to keep himself safe, Wang Jieyu is for this thing to have the idea of being subordinate to Qin Shujiu, and Qin Shujiu is also an extremely sensitive person. Although she did not laugh at Wang Jieyu's thoughts, Fang Cai's words also gave Wang Jieyu a satisfactory answer.

She is still young, and it is not a matter of time before she conceives an heir, and she doesn't mind helping her to get a dragon descendant again.

They are all women who have lived in the palace for many years, and there is no need to say some things too clearly, it is enough to be clear in each other's hearts, and at the moment Wang Jieyu also understands the meaning of Qin Shujiu, and she is already glad of her decision. When I was happy in my heart, I saw Qin Shujiu holding up the tea set next to him, slightly plucking the tea floating in the cup, and then said: "By the way, the red coral that my sister gave to this palace some time ago, this palace really likes it very much, and I have always wanted to thank my sister for her kindness." Who knew that just now a sister who was not very good first caused her sister to remember the pain, this cup of tea is regarded as the palace's reparation, how about it? ”

After speaking, he gave the tea to Wang Jieyu, and then drank all the tea in the cup. Because it was Qin Shujiu's tea salute, Wang Jieyu was a little flattered, and she hurriedly raised the teacup and returned the salute.

When the tea in that cup was drunk, Qin Shujiu smiled, and when he wanted to speak, he suddenly smelled a faint fragrance at the tip of his nose. The fragrance that suddenly wafted was very faint, although it could not make people's hearts suddenly open, but it could be regarded as a good smell. It was also because the tip of his nose suddenly smelled this faint fragrance, which also made Qin Shujiu break off his desire to speak, so he paused slightly, and then asked.

"Huh? Sister, what is burned in this palace? Seeing the confusion on Qin Shujiu's face, Wang Jieyu hurriedly responded: "Some time ago, His Majesty just rewarded some new spices in the palace, because I felt that this fragrance made people smell and calm, and I was thinking that Niangniang should be happy." I don't know if I will be a mother, but I ordered the palace maid to burn it first, I don't know how the mother feels. ”

Wang Jieyu is fragrant and likes to smell incense, although the grace in the palace is no longer in the palace, but her preference Liqing still remembers, every time there is a new spice in the palace, she has not forgotten a copy of Yiye Palace. This year is also the same, a few days ago, the province sent a new spice tribute, that is, I feel that this incense is also pleasant, it can be regarded as genuine, Wang Jieyu also ordered the palace people to burn, which is considered a tribute.

Spices are what Wang Jieyu loves, and being able to worship her with her love is enough to see the sincerity of her vassals, and at the moment Qin Shujiu also received her share, that is, she sniffed the incense in the palace slightly, and after tasting and sniffing, Qin Shujiu opened her eyes and smiled.

"Your Majesty is rewarding, it's really a good thing, it's even better to be able to get my sister's favorite. This fragrance is quiet and elegant, but it also makes people smell and think quietly. This palace does not understand these, but I can't tell a good and bad, I just think that this fragrance is lined with the mind of this palace, but my sister is a person who is proficient in this way, if my sister praises this incense is a thing, it will not be wrong to think about it, after all, my sister is the first person in the palace to distinguish incense, and what she says is a matter in the industry. ”

A layman can only smile and laugh a little, that is, he can say a few words, but it is an expert who can be called a doorway inside. Qin Shujiu is not good at spices, but Wang Jieyu is very happy, she is a very happy person, she can also be called an expert person, and Qin Shujiu's words are praise after all.

With the joy of others, praising others is also a good way to win people's hearts, Qin Shujiu's words Wang Jieyu was happy after hearing this, but although this heart is happy, Wang Jieyu is also a clear person. Smelling Qin Shujiu's praise words, Wang Jieyu seemed to thank Qin Shujiu for his praise, and then said.

"Niangniang's praise concubine is afraid, if you want to talk about this spice, the concubine can only be regarded as very happy, and she knows a little bit of the doorway, as for the first person in the palace to know incense, the concubine will never dare to bear it."

Wang Jieyu's words also made Qin Shujiu feel hearted, and she looked at her with staring eyes, and then said: "I can't be regarded as the first person in this palace, but my sister is modest?" Bengong feels that it can be lined up, but why does my sister feel that she can't be lined up. ”

"Niangniang is too praised, it's really not that the concubine is humble, but the first person in this palace to distinguish incense is not a concubine, but a bystander."

"Others, it's interesting to ask my sister to say this, I don't know if my sister can say anything."

Wang Jieyu's words didn't make Qin Shujiu pay attention, when she asked with a smile, and after seeing Qin Shujiu's question, Wang Jieyu immediately responded: "Could it be that Niangniang forgot that in addition to the concubines in the palace, there is another one who is good at this." ”

Fang didn't think about it, it was because he didn't remember, and now he called Wang Jieyu to say that Qin Shujiu should understand the person she was referring to. When he couldn't help laughing, Qin Shujiu said: "Isn't it my sister's head to remind me, this palace really has to forget that there is such a capable person as Sister Meng." ”

If you want to say that the person in the palace is most related to incense, it should belong to Chen Shuyi, except for her, no one dares to call the first. Seeing that Qin Shujiu was open-minded, Wang Jieyu said with a smile: "It's Meng Xiuyi, but Niang Niang forgot about Sister Meng, but to be honest, Sister Meng is not the best person in the palace if she is above the incense or the incense maker." It's not that the concubine said it, if Sister Meng said the second in this palace, no one would dare to call herself respected. The spices that Wu pays tribute every year are already the best in the world, but when it comes to concubines, they are still half a point inferior to those made by Sister Meng. The incense made by Sister Meng, that is the best thing that is difficult to find in a daughter, that is, the concubine was fortunate to be rewarded by the dream repair, the fragrance was extremely drunk back then, and it is still unforgettable for the concubine, and it has never seen such an excellent thing for so many years. ”

Chen Shuyi also gave her spices, and it was because she had received them that Wang Jieyu respected Chen Shuyi in her heart. But there is this matter, that is, Wang Jieyu only remembered it when she mentioned Qin Shujiu again, and then remembered this incident in her heart, and after thinking about it, Qin Shujiu asked.

"What my sister said was the drunken rouge that Sister Meng gave back then?"

When asked, Wang Jieyu said: "It's the drunk rouge, don't you think that Niangniang remembers?" ”

Of course the drunken rouge Qin Shujiu remembered, after all, the fragrance emitted by the spices was really special, and it was mentioned that it was in his mind. The reason why Qin Shujiu thought about it was that in addition to the peculiar aroma of the drunken rouge itself, the most important thing was that the drunken rouge was given by Chen Shuyi when Wang Jieyu was pregnant.

It's not that Qin Shujiu suspected anything, but after Murong Duanruo found out that the spices were mixed with sheep's heels, Qin Shujiu couldn't help but think more. Be careful to sail the boat for ten thousand years, this is an ancient saying, it is because of Wang Jieyu's mention, Qin Shujiu was stunned in his heart at the moment, and then asked: "The spice was really intoxicating back then, but I don't know if my sister still has it here." ”

There was no hope for this inquiry, Qin Shujiu just tried to inquire, but he didn't expect that Wang Jieyu still had a little left in her hand, so she was busy and then ordered the palace maid to enter and take it out. When the remaining drunken rouge was enshrined in front of him, Qin Shujiu couldn't help but stare at it.

Drunk rouge is a rare thing for Wang Jieyu, because she is very happy, she is reluctant to use it all up, so she hides some. Now that I see Qin Shujiu like this, I seem to like this thing, because I want to cling to Qin Shujiu's wings, and Wang Jieyu now transferred this drunken rouge to Qin Shujiu.

was a little suspicious in her heart, but now that Wang Jieyu took the initiative to transfer it, Qin Shujiu did not refuse, but ordered Nanzhi to accept it, and he also thought about it in his heart. (To be continued.) )
