Chapter 3 What We Want Is Majesty

3. What we want is majesty

"What did you say?" The handkerchief embroidered with red plum and snow floated to the ground with the master's sudden rise.

The woman with dark green ointment on her face couldn't see her stunning appearance at this time, and with the green plaster on her face, she swept a purple sand teapot of Lao Mei Shengchun next to her to the ground.

"Mother's anger!"

The palace maid who came to report the news was so frightened that she immediately knelt on the ground, even if her knee was stabbed with blood from a broken pottery shard, she did not dare to move.

The towering chest of the "......" rose and fell sharply, and the dancΓ΄me-painted fingers clutched the lacquered rosewood tabletop, as if it were about to smash the table alive.

"Mother, be careful that the plaster falls." At this moment, probably only the female official in charge of Concubine Rong's Huaguang Palace dared to talk to her. "Don't forget, it's your brand that the emperor can turn over today."

With just a light word, Concubine Rong's violent sanity was pulled back.

"Get out of here, be honest with this palace one by one in the past two days, don't you listen?"

"Yes!"

Except for Xiao Shenmo, the head of Huaguang Palace, the other palace people were all driven out by Concubine Rong.

"That, she is so good that she can even avoid such a big crime." Concubine Rong lay back on the chaise longue and beat the edge of the couch unwillingly, "This palace doesn't understand, it's obviously a disgusting thing that came out of the Zhaoyang Palace, why did the emperor refuse to abolish her and kill her?" ”

"Although it was disgusted in the Zhaoyang Palace, the palace satin on the puppet was the purple silk sent in the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, and the queen had not entered the palace at that time, so she didn't get this thing, so the emperor said that something was strange and he was not sure of the queen's sin, so he only grounded her in the Zhaoyang Palace." Aunt Shen Mo sat behind the couch and gently pinched Concubine Rong's shoulder, "Niangniang, you don't want to think about it, although the queen's surname is Zhao, her family is the Pei family." The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, not to mention that she is still the emperor's cousin. If it is really true, then there will be more than one queen's seat, the Zhao family of the queen's mother's family, and the uncle and champion Hou family will all be implicated. One is Qingliu in the DPRK, and the other is Sima in the army, if it is served in a pot, isn't it going to be a big mess? ”

Concubine Rong was about to say something, and when she heard Shen Mo raise her index finger and compare it to her lips: "Niangniang, this is the palace, you must be cautious in everything, and you can't make mistakes." The emperor still needs the Zhao family now, even if he spoils you again, he won't move the queen for the time being, don't think about those who don't have it, you still spend a lot of time on the emperor. Only when the grace of the Holy Grace does not fade, can you live comfortably and happily in the palace. ”

"Alas......" Concubine Rong sighed, with Zhao Yanrong's cheap maid pressing on her head, how could she have a good time, "It's a pity, such a good opportunity, but she woke up again!" "I was quite angry.

"Niangniang, even if you think so in your heart, don't say it." Shen Mo said in a deep voice, "There are many forces in the palace, even if you are a slave and maid, you can't fully trust it, who knows who is the eyeliner and ear of who?" The queen is in charge of the phoenix seal, you have to be careful, don't rely on the emperor's favor and don't follow the rules. I'm afraid that after this incident, the queen must be watching you more closely. ”

"Shen Mo, this palace knows that you are a loyal person, so I will only say these words in front of you." Concubine Rong grabbed Shen Mo's hand, "This palace believes you, because from the time you entered the palace to the present, you have been thinking about this palace in every word." You are only loyal to Hongu. ”

Shen Mo shook his head and replied, "There is also the emperor." ”

"Yes, yes, and the emperor." Concubine Rong laughed, and there was a little more coquettish in her voice, "I don't know if the swelling of my face has subsided, and when the emperor comes, I will definitely sue her fiercely." ”

"It's better for the slave to persuade the mother not to say anything." Shen Mo hesitated for a moment and reminded aloud, "The emperor doesn't like these things in the harem very much. ”

"Got it, you go and ask the Tai Hospital, is the Yufu Moisturizing Lotion ready, why haven't you sent it over?"

Listening to Concubine Rong's somewhat perfunctory tone, she stopped talking in silence, and finally just squatted down and saluted: "The slave is going to ask someone." ”

Then he withdrew from the temple, and closed the door with his hand.

Outside, the sun is shining, the sky is clear, some flowers in the yard have bloomed, and the air is filled with a faint smell of flowers and earth, which makes people feel refreshed when they smell it.

This is Xiao Shenmo's twelfth year in the palace, and she has almost forgotten about the last master, although this master is favored, she always feels uneasy.

In another year, she will be twenty-five and can be released from the palace.

If Concubine Rong can firmly grasp the Sacred Heart, she will not be able to leave the palace even a few years later.

If it doesn't work, she'd better plan earlier.

*********

Zhao Yanrong called all the palace people up and down the Zhaoyang Palace to the front of the palace, only one-third of the people here she had an impression, and the other two-thirds of the people had either not seen them before, or they were replaced after she had an accident.

The art of disgust with witchcraft has always been a taboo in the palace, and there was a precedent in the previous dynasty, because the prince wanted to curse the emperor to death with the technique of disgust with victory, and after being found out, not only the prince was given death, but even the prince's queen mother was also broken by a white silk. In the palace and in the court, countless people have died for this. But the irony is that when the dust settled, it suddenly found out that this matter was a trap set by a certain prince. Although this ambitious and incapable prince paid for the prince's life, after all, his son and wife were killed by the emperor, and he was depressed, and within a few months, he chased him to the underworld.

The one who had the last laugh was a prince who was not favored.

No one will know what the truth of this headless public case is, but the current Emperor Chengzong of Great Qi took this incident as an example, refuted the demands of the queen mother and the courtiers, and only put the new empress Zhao Yanrong under house arrest in the Zhaoyang Palace.

I have to say that this emperor still has a bit of a brain.

Zhao Yanrong didn't give birth to a son, what did she want to do to curse the emperor to death? In such a hurry to be a widow?

She is now the queen, except that there is a queen mother in the palace who can suppress her, and all the women in the world respect her, what is she not satisfied with?

Even if you want to curse the dead with disgust, the curse queen mother can still make people understand a little, curse the emperor to die early unless she has intermittent self-inflicted dead snake spirit disease.

Forty or fifty people knelt in the courtyard, and only those who were called by their names could raise their heads so that the queen could take a look at their faces.

The queen mother can be regarded as a resurrection from the dead, and she is willing to come to life. Half of the palace people in Zhaoyang Hall were happy and half worried.

Just because a puppet with His Majesty's birthday written on it was dug up under the bamboo forest in the backyard of Zhaoyang Palace, two-thirds of the palace people who served up and down in Zhaoyang Hall were dragged away, and most of them could not come back alive.

Therefore, the province of the temple sent new people to fill in.

There may be eyeliner with its intentions here, but there are not many of them. Also, the art of disgust has always been a taboo thing in the palace, not to mention that this queen is not the person the emperor puts on the top of his heart, and everyone never thought that she could escape this catastrophe.

Most of the people who made up for it were not very popular in the palace.

or offended, or had no money to honor, or had a withdrawn and eccentric temperament.

It's okay for the queen mother to turn over, and the palace people in the Zhaoyang Palace are naturally worth more, but the queen mother just woke up and killed the two palace maids in the palace, which made people feel very worried.

Of course, Zhao Yanrong knew the thoughts of these people.

She didn't plan to kick them out.

If there are not a few eyeliners in the Queen's Palace, then it is not called normal. The human heart is separated by the belly, who knows whose people are hidden here? Who knows if she drove one away today, will she have an extra pair tomorrow?

Well, that's what it's all about, who doesn't have a few weaknesses? It's nothing more than money and power.

"You guys have been working hard in Zhaoyang Hall these days, since you are from this palace, this palace naturally can't be treated badly." Zhao Yanrong looked at them, but her face was tense, and she didn't show the slightest smile, "This palace has always been protective of shortcomings, but this palace has always held grudges." In addition to the original old man, most of the kneeling here are newcomers who have come from other places. You do not know this house, and this house does not know you. Before today, no matter who your heart is directed towards, after today, you can only keep the master of this palace in your heart. ”

"Yes!" The crowd responded.

"Don't rush to respond." Zhao Yanrong leaned lazily on the back of her chair, and the sunlight shone obliquely from the top of the majestic palace, reflecting her still somewhat pale cheeks. Like new porcelain, smooth and delicate, but so unreal.

"This palace will give you a day to think about it, stay if you want, leave if you want, this palace will never interfere, and it will not trouble you afterwards." Zhao Yanrong's voice paused, took the tea from Mulan and moistened her throat.

Mulan nodded, turned to the person below and said, "You have all thought it through, don't be disheartened if you stay." Those who have two hearts also hold their skills tightly so as not to be discovered. Those who stay, as long as you do your own thing well, want to be lazy and gluttonous, no one will punish you. But if you betray your master, you have all heard about yesterday's events, and Zhaoyang Hall will never allow anyone to betray the master. ”

The palace maid who was killed by the rod yesterday thought that she had betrayed the Lord, and others naturally did not know how to betray the Lord.

Zhao Yanrong didn't want to say much, so she only ordered the two eunuchs who were kneeling at the front and asked them to follow into the hall, and the others dispersed.

That's how the words are put out, but it's unlikely that anyone will bring it up and leave.

Either you have a task on you, or you simply have nowhere to go. The Zhaoyang Palace now lives with the Queen of the Main Palace, as long as they are loyal to their duty, there will be no dignity in the Zhaoyang Palace anywhere.

Everyone who can mix in the palace is a human spirit, and some words don't need to be said in a clear place.

The queen's reprimand is just to convey a message to the eyeliners sent by the palaces - if the mother is not powerful, you should not treat her as HelloKitty.
