The deposed imperial concubine (17)
When Lily stepped out of the gate of Fengming Palace, she turned her head to take a look, and saw Su He standing with her head bowed and respectfully hanging her arms, and the Empress Dowager Lu was supported back to the inner hall by the palace maid named Ah Ji.
"Ladies and gentlemen, slow down." Soho sent the group out of the south gate of the Fengming Palace, stopped, Lily thought about it, reached out and grasped her hand, and when Soho was about to struggle, she put the bracelet on her wrist on Soho's wrist:
"Last time, because of Mubei's incident, I beat Aunt Soho, and this palace is really a little unhappy, but now I think that this matter has nothing to do with my aunt, but I have wronged my aunt."
Concubine Xian and the others watched coldly, Su He's eyes flashed, she took two steps back, avoided the hand of the lily bracelet, and knelt down: "The matter of the eldest prince, the slave and maid are also not taken care of, the concubine and the maid are playing well, where does the slave dare to ask for the mother's things?" ”
After she finished speaking, she said: "The queen mother can't leave the slaves and maids to wait, you ladies and maids go slowly, and the slaves and maids will go back first." After Soho finished speaking, he didn't look at Lily, bent down and retreated, and retreated step by step into the gate of Fengming Palace, before turning around and gradually disappearing.
Seeing such a scene, Concubine De sneered: "It seems that the bracelet of the concubine can't be sent, and the concubine has something to do, so she will take the first step." She stepped on the chariot, and the eunuch who carried the chariot snorted, and gradually Concubine De's guard of honor became invisible. Liu Wanyi also smiled and found an excuse to leave, the remaining Concubine Xian and Lily were still there, and Concubine Xian remembered that Lily had mentioned her own An Xue last time, but she was gloating. Relieved Lily by a sentence:
"Sister doesn't have to take it to heart, maybe Aunt Soho didn't care about it."
Lily smiled and put the bracelet back on her bracelet, and smiled when she heard what Concubine Xian said.
In the Fengming Palace, Empress Dowager Lu, who was still gentle and dignified before, no longer had a smile on her face at this time, and Su He knelt in front of her, just talking about the words that Lily had given her a jade bracelet before.
"Why don't you take it?" Empress Dowager Lu's face was full of smiles again, and her voice was soft, Su He heard this, but buried her head lower: "The slave was blamed by the concubine before, how could she accept her things?" It's just a cat crying mouse. False mercy. She was in front of Empress Dowager Lu. Without concealing the hatred in her heart, Empress Dowager Lu heard this, although her expression remained unchanged, her eyes flashed with satisfaction: "It's hard for you." Last time, a piece of Hetian jade was tributed. And the mourners rewarded thee. "Soho respectfully should be. She rejected the lily's things, but when the Empress Dowager Lu rewarded the things, she happily accepted them, and the Empress Dowager Lu was satisfied. Nodding his head, he motioned for her to go down.
When Soho came out of the inner hall of Empress Dowager Lu, he clenched his palms. She confiscated Lily's bracelet, but when Lily grabbed her hand, she clearly marked the word 'He' in her hand.
Empress Dowager Lu thought that she hated Lily the most, Empress Dowager Lu should be used to being high, she didn't think about the thoughts of the next person, she is also a person, she did things for Empress Dowager Lu, harmed Liang Mubei, and was finally caught and beaten by Lily, Empress Dowager Lu used people when she used people, once the concubine killed herself, but she couldn't help herself, in her eyes, I am afraid that she was worse than a dog, the concubine beat herself that day, but what Soho hated the most in her heart was not her. Empress Dowager Lu thought that she would reward herself with some jewelry after the incident, but Empress Dowager Lu only miscalculated.
In the past, she used her benefits to buy Soho's loyalty and use it for her, Soho is the first female official next to the Queen Mother, who in the palace is not afraid? Who is not filial? Many small palace servants still have to be filial to her, on weekdays, the Empress Dowager Lu wins people's hearts, and good things are also sent casually, to the point of Soho, she has gold, silver and jewelry, and even more net worth than some unfavored beauties, she has no shortage of rewards, what she lacks is respect.
It was the Empress Dowager Lu who gave her a trace of undue expectations when she held her that day, but afterwards she was trampled into the mud by the lily, thinking that she could be sent away with gold and silver jewelry, but the Empress Dowager Lu miscalculated.
Especially when Soho recovered from her injuries and came back to duty, there was already one more female official around the Queen Mother, which made her deeply realize that the people around the Queen Mother Lu did not necessarily have to be her. Without a Soho, there will be a Li He, Wang He, etc. to take her place.
Thinking of this, Su Ho's hand was tighter, she knew that Empress Dowager Lu's personality was clear, although she didn't talk much today, but her act of rewarding herself jade was telling herself that as long as she was loyal to her, then the concubine could reward her things, and the Queen Mother could do it. In the past, I always regarded this kind of thing as a favor, but now that I think about it, if something really happens, I am afraid how much Empress Dowager Lu spoils her today, and how indifferent she will be in the future.
Lily smiled and squinted her eyes, and had a conversation with Concubine Xian. Empress Dowager Lu hadn't realized the change in Soho yet, but Lily did. It is estimated that in the eyes of a noble person like Empress Dowager Lu, the life of a palace maid is worthless, even if Suho is a female official in charge, but in Empress Dowager Lu's heart, I am afraid that Suho is just a plaything she holds up. If she can afford a Soho today, she can naturally afford an Aji.
He has already thrown out the olive branch to Soho, and he will see if Soho will not accept it in the future. If she's a smart person, she'll definitely take it, and if she's stupid, don't want such a person. Even if she just said that she had written on the palm of her hand, there was no evidence, and she didn't leave a trace, she could bite her because she was wronged after being beaten, and Lily gave her a bracelet in front of Concubine De and others, just for this.
But thinking about Soho should be smart, after all, she can be so reused by Empress Dowager Lu, and when she ordered someone to beat her that day, she didn't say a word, obviously she had an idea in her heart, and she would take the branch she threw out if she wasn't stupid. If she really took it, Empress Dowager Lu would not have thought that the female official who was so loyal to her would be bought by others, especially Lily. If it really succeeds, it will be really funny then, in the past, Empress Dowager Lu bought the Zhen family around Zhou Baihe, and now Lily also poached her hands, which is considered a report and a report.
"My sister is really like a god." Concubine Xian had nothing to do, and when she came out of Fengming Palace, she wanted to go to the Lily Palace to sit, so she went to Xianfu Palace together, talking along the way, and mentioning the matter of Concubine De as she spoke.
When Concubine Rixian listened to Lily's suggestion, she still didn't believe it, but now it seems that Lily's vision is really better.
"It's not that this palace is like a god, it's just that I can think about it, and I can see it naturally." Lily glanced at Concubine Xian meaningfully, and Concubine Xian fell silent. It's not that she doesn't know what Lily meant, she just doesn't want to believe that the emperor is really indifferent and ruthless, and she can't believe that what Lily said is true.
The two were silent and did not speak, only to hear the sound of the palace people stepping on the ground step by step, the step chariot shook and made a 'squeak' sound when it was raised, and when passing by Mei Wan, Lily in the distance saw a middle-aged man wearing an embroidered unicorn robe not far away with a team of attendants passing by, and Concubine Xian obviously also saw it: "It seems that the tall general has entered the palace to thank him." ”
Only the official uniform of the military general is embroidered with a unicorn, and there are not many who are qualified to wear the official robe of a second-grade military general, plus he is so young, he has just grown a beard, and there are not many generals in the Northern Qi Dynasty, so the identity is naturally deduced as soon as it is deduced.
Obviously, the Gao family suffered such a loss, but General Gao died of his father, made a meritorious service, and received such a few painless rewards, and he didn't get any benefits from pouring on the sky, and he had to enter the palace to thank the emperor, and when Lily thought of this, he wanted to know how big the shadow area in General Gao's heart was. She covered her mouth with a handkerchief, covering the corners of her lips, and pressed the upturned corners of her mouth down with her fingers, and when she put the handkerchief, she looked lazy again:
"I'm afraid yes, after all, Concubine De has caused such a big trouble, the emperor doesn't hold her accountable, spares her life, and gets her position, and the Gao family still has to kneel in fear?"
I heard that General Gao entered the palace and knelt for a long time yesterday, and the emperor put on a full posture, obviously summoned him today.
If you don't know what happened, this sounds right, but after Concubine Xian knew the whole story, she couldn't speak.
At the end of January, there was no movement in the Fengming Palace, until the beginning of February, Lily in the Fengming Hall and pulled Soho to reward something, Suhe refused again this time, but when he was held by Lily, he hooked the palm of her hand, obviously making a decision.
When I returned to Xianfu Palace, I didn't know what the meaning of the painting was, and I was trembling with anger:
"Even if Soho is favored, she is just a female palace next to the Queen Mother, not to mention that she can't get rid of the matter with the eldest prince, Niangniang just beat her, it's good that she didn't kill her, she actually dared to refuse Niangniang's kindness three times and twice, why didn't Niangniang give her a lesson again?"
Poetry cleaned the face for the lily, took the balm with milk and flower dew and brushed it evenly on the lily surface, although he did not speak, but his face also showed a look of approval, and the lily closed his eyes: "The lesson is to teach, but not the lesson you think." ”
"What do you mean by that?" After brushing the balm evenly, Shiqing took out the fine yarn soaked in the flower liquid on the side, took some mixed Chinese medicine mud and wrapped it in, wrapped it and put it on the lily's eyelids, and then asked curiously.
"From now on, it's all my own." As soon as she said this, Shiqing originally wiped her hands and was about to rub her shoulders for her, but when she heard this, she was startled, the handkerchief in her hand fell to the ground, and she looked up at Lily, but Lily's face was covered with things at this time, and her eyelids were also blocked, but she couldn't see the look on her face. (To be continued......)
