Chapter Ninety-Six: Taking Refuge

Two days later, after Shi Guiren's injuries were healed, Shi Guiren dressed up and prepared some gifts. Although the Shi family was not wealthy at the beginning, after hearing that she was selected to enter the palace, many people still came to recognize her relatives and support her. Among them are a few wealthy businessmen. These people gave her a lot of silver in the house. Lord Shi is not a stupid person, he did not swallow all the silver, but spent more than half of it on the items that his daughter prepared to enter the palace.

A large sum of silver was spent, and a lot of rare and exotic items were still bought. Because Shi Yuesi and Wen Hui were good friends, she naturally told her father that she bought a lot of things from the black family. Lord Shi didn't expect to buy things at Hei's house, but after being reminded by his daughter, he went to see it and came back overjoyed. There are many treasures produced by the Hei family, especially the jewelry, gemstones, and pearls of Jinyutang are the best. I bought a lot of them for Shi Yuesi to bring into the palace.

Now Shi Yuesi opened the booklet, selected a set of pearl heads from it, and let the jasper clip be loaded, and then prepared to meet the imperial concubine. Before going out, Biyu suddenly said: "Noble, do you remember what Miss Wen Hui told you before, asking our family to create some small jewelry, gold and silver jewelry, and gold and silver mules, ready to be rewarded to the palace people?" ”

Shi Yuesi also remembered and nodded.

Biyu said: "I heard that Yu'er, the big palace maid next to the imperial concubine, is the most favored, and the imperial concubine can't do without her for a day." Shall we bring something and give it to Yu'er? Isn't it much better to have her by her side to say good things for nobles? ”

Shi Yue thought about it, so she said: "Since you are the most powerful palace maid by the side of the imperial concubine, don't take those small jewelry, take out the ivory comb in my treasury, and give it to her in a while." Talk to her more often and build a good relationship. There are also those small jewelry, gold and silver mules, and some are also brought to reward the ordinary palace maids and eunuchs in the palace of the concubine. ”

Jasper was surprised and said, "Is that comb worth much?" Not only are the materials precious. The workmanship is even more exquisite, but the master spent two hundred taels of silver to buy it from Jinyutang. ”

Shi Yuesi said: "Money and wealth are things outside the body, why do you want this?" It is the top priority for our master and servant to live safely in the palace, didn't Zhao Chonghua's palace maid wake you up that day? ”

Jasper shuddered. He resolutely went and took the comb out, and brought some small purses containing gold and silver mules. There are also four or five shrimp and gold bracelets on his hands hidden in his sleeves.

After half a ring, Shi Yuesi happily came out of the Imperial Concubine's Zhongcui Palace. Jasper beside him was still holding a picture scroll in his arms, which was a painting by the great painter of the previous dynasty that the imperial concubine Niangniang gave to Shi Yuesi.

Shi Yuesi is a person who loves to paint like her life, and when she returned to her room, she couldn't wait to open the scroll and take a serious look.

Ban Xiang raised his head from the picture scroll with satisfaction, and said to Biyu: "Although there are many bad things about the palace, this picture scroll is really rich. Before. The emperor rewarded me with the spring picture painted by the great painter of the previous dynasty, which has made me overjoyed, and the imperial concubine Niangniang rewarded me with this precious autumn hunting picture, which really makes me happy I don't know how to do it. If the teacher is also here, he must be envious, I don't know how to do it? ”

Jasper said, "All right, nobleman. Don't study your drawings. Tell me first, how did you talk to the imperial concubine? ”

Shi Yuesi said: "Just look at this picture scroll. I told the imperial concubine that I was not treated well in my mother's family, and the only good friend was her favorite niece Chen Wenhui. Saying this, the imperial concubine was very happy. I also told her that Chen Wenhui's painting skills were far superior to mine, and I also introduced my teacher to her. The teacher did not give up, and he had already accepted Xia Hui as a disciple. The mother was very happy to hear this. He was much kinder to me. He also told me to walk around the Zhongcui Palace more often in the future. ”

Biyu said happily: "That's good, we are finally not alone in this palace." ”

Shi Yuesi frowned and said: "I can't be happy too early, you know, we are not the only ones who have a good relationship with Niangniang in the palace, and there is also Niangniang's niece and daughter in the palace." Or two. ”

Biyu said proudly: "This, I'll tell the nobleman." The two concubines of the Chen family, Niang Niang naturally took care of them more, but it was only for the sake of the same blood. Niangniang's favorite is someone who is truly loyal to her. ”

Shi Yuesi hurriedly grabbed Biyu's hand and asked, "Where did you know this?" ”

Biyu said, "Didn't the nobleman let me take that precious ivory comb and give it to Yu'er, the palace maid of Zhong Cui Palace?" Yu'er likes that comb very much, and she can't put it down. Yu'er also instructed me to go to Zhongcui Palace often to play with her. Yu'er said these things to me. Also said. If the nobleman can be loyal to the mother, when the mother goes further, he will definitely give the nobleman a good future. ”

Shi Yuesi let go of Jasper's hand: "Go further?" Could it be that she thinks about that position. Well, too, the women who live in the palace, which one doesn't want to be in that position. Although I have never had such ambitions, I also know the importance of that position. However, she is now the first person in the harem, and the emperor still trusts her very much, and entrusts her with the management of palace affairs, who else can compete with her? ”

Jasper said, "Why not?" Isn't there a concubine who is only a little shorter than her? If you want to talk about this appearance, although the concubine Niangniang has already become a grandmother, she is still very gorgeous, and Zhao Chonghua can't compare. The emperor has always loved her, and the most important thing is that the imperial concubine has no prince? The concubine Niangniang has a third prince who is loved by the emperor. ”

Shi Yuesi pondered for a while and said, "Then I really don't know who killed this deer?" The two sides are evenly matched, it's really hard to say. Who will be in power in this harem in the future, and where will there be a prophet? Did we take refuge too soon? In case one day, the imperial concubine falls out of favor and the concubine becomes the queen, then we are not miserable. The concubine can't help the imperial concubine from a family, can she still help me as a little nobleman? ”

Biyu gritted her teeth and said, "Wealth is in danger, we can't think about it so much." With the light of Miss Wen Hui, she will take refuge in the imperial concubine first. We must help the imperial concubine get the position of the queen, so that we can survive in this palace. ”

Shi Yuesi nodded, there is no way to do this.

Concubine Qian Shu was crying in the palace. The palace maid Fan Die was persuading her: "Niangniang, don't be sad, the little princess is gone, and she will not be offended, she has been weak since she was a child, and the imperial doctor said that this is also normal." ”

Qian Shufei said: "Can I not be sad? After staying in this palace for so long, it was easy to get the favor of the saint and conceive the prince, but she was killed by the slut of Concubine Wan. Later, with the help of the imperial concubine, she regained her favor, became pregnant again, and gave birth to a princess, which was deeply loved by the emperor. However, he was frail and sickly since he was a child. Later, although I became pregnant again and gave birth to a prince, I went within 100 days. Now, even the little princess is gone, why is my life so bleak? What's the point of being alive? ”

Pink Butterfly didn't know how to persuade Concubine Qian, this series of blows was indeed too big.

Qian Shufei said: "My life is over. Youth is gone, grace is gone, and there are no children. ”

After speaking, Concubine Qian Shufei cried sadly.

Fan Die thought that she had no future with Concubine Qian Shufei, and there was no hope at all in this deep palace. I couldn't help but cry bitterly.

Qian Shufei cried for a while, and suddenly raised her head, her tear-stained face was full of anger and hatred: "In the final analysis, it's all Concubine Wan." It's all her slut, at that time, I just entered the palace, it was the time to be favored, young and beautiful, how much does the emperor like me? My stomach is also angry, pregnant with the dragon seed, the emperor learned how good it is to me, and he can't wait to bring the world to me. What I want in the palace, my mother's relatives are all reused, the items paid by the world are selected for me first, and the queen will let me. The current imperial concubine Niangniang was only the identity of Concubine De at that time, and she had quietly promised me that if I gave birth to a prince, I would hand it over to her to raise, so that the Chen family would fully support my emperor as a prince and become an emperor in the future, she was the queen mother, and I was also the virgin. That's the most noble woman in the world, and besides, she is old enough to be the queen mother for a few years, but I am young, and when she goes, I will be the queen mother. Since then, he has become the supreme in the world. Such a bright future awaits me, but Wan Guifei, that slut, is jealous of me and drugged me, and my poor prince is gone. Moreover, the medicine was too strong, and the residual poison remained in my body all the time. The princes and princesses I gave birth to later were all frail and sickly, and now there are no more. I myself am all on medicine, and I don't know how many years I can live. Even if you can live a long life, what can you do? I'm not young anymore, I've given birth to a few children, and I look very old, where are the opponents of the concubines of the official families who have just entered the palace. This qiē is all caused by Wan Guifei. Now I have no point in living, only this hatred. I will avenge my dead sons and daughters. ”

Fan Die was also a little scared when she saw such a gentle person as Qian Shufei turn into such a vicious look. But when I think about it, she was originally the emperor's favorite concubine, and everyone in the palace gave a little face, and she received many rewards on weekdays. I have a lot of property in my hand, and I look forward to the future when Concubine Qian Shu comes out, she can follow the greater light, and now it seems impossible, she will become an old palace maid who has no power and is cautious in the future.

Qian Shufei grabbed Pink Butterfly's hand and said, "Pink Butterfly, I want revenge, can you help me?"

Pink Butterfly looked at Concubine Qian Shufei, who looked like crazy, and was instinctively a little scared.
