Chapter 74
Although Jiang Sumei married Yu Wenshu and was also the wife of the fifth official, because he had not yet had outstanding merits, he had not yet received the title of the decree, but in the future, he would be called pleasant in terms of the grade of his wife.
Jiang Sumei got up early the next day, changed into a solemn dress, and went to meet Jiang Xuehui.
The two of them got into the carriage, and their faces were tight.
After a while, Jiang Sumei soothed: "Actually, there is nothing to be afraid of, I asked the Xianggong yesterday, but I just went to visit the mother, and I didn't meet the emperor, so there is no need to worry." ”
Jiang Xuehui sighed and wiped her skirt: "The first time I went to the palace, I really didn't expect it." ”
How could she know that her cousin would become the emperor's concubine!
Hearing the sadness in her words, Jiang Sumei said: "The incident has happened, in the future, we just hope that we and our concubines can be safe and stable and live happily in the palace." ”
"Hmm." Jiang Xuehui nodded, "Fortunately, cousin...... Niangniang is a blessed one, it must not be easy to think of her in the palace. ”
Jiang Sumei was actually quite surprised by Jiang Xuezhen's rapid ascension.
In a place like the harem, Jiang Xuezhen looks like a fish in water, which shows that her adaptability is unparalleled, and she is an extremely smart person.
If not, then her luck is very good, at least she has been favored by the emperor, but if she relies on luck alone, it can't last long.
Which kind of person is she?
Jiang Sumei really wanted to see Concubine Niangniang soon.
The carriage soon arrived, and met the Jiang family's car outside the palace gate.
More than half a year has passed, of course, the Jiang family has found a place to live, and has long moved out of the Yu family, and now Jiang Xuezhen is favored, and their family has recently bought a big mansion.
Hu's body was full of gold, Wu glared at this daughter-in-law, he was in a hurry to go out just now, and he didn't pay attention, only to find that Hu wore all the newly bought jewelry on his head and hands, which was extremely cheesy.
When Hu saw Wu looking at it, he lowered his head, but he didn't think so in his heart.
"Auntie, cousin." Jiang Xuehui greeted them, and Jiang Sumei also went over.
Wu couldn't help but sigh when he saw that they were dressed very decently, and when he thought of Hu.
I was able to tolerate it before, but now I can't stand this daughter-in-law's inappropriateness more and more, she waved her hand: "Let's go in quickly, we can only stay for a while and leave." ”
At the door, there were already little eunuchs and palace maids to greet them.
"We've brought something, I don't know?" Wu asked politely.
The concubine was favored, and the little eunuch hurriedly asked someone to take it out of the car, and said with a smile: "Naturally, you are the family of the mother, and it is common sense to bring some things to visit, please go with the villain." ”
Wu hurriedly thanked him a few times.
The group then followed into the palace.
Jiang Sumei walked for a while before she realized the vastness of this place, and the buildings were majestic, with a great sense of oppression, it was really the place where the Son of Heaven lived!
It was not easy to get to the inner palace, and when she entered the area where the concubines lived, the scenery was softer and more beautiful, and she wanted to take a good look, but it was rude to look around, and she only glanced at it a few times.
"Chunlai, who are they?" Suddenly, a crisp voice came from ahead.
The little eunuch named Chunlai hurriedly replied: "It's from the concubine's house." ”
"Oh, I see."
It was the maid in the palace who spoke, dressed in a splendid dress, quite gorgeous, Jiang Sumei secretly thought, I heard that the maid of the Prime Minister's Mansion was like a seven-grade official, and this maid was also comparable to the dress of a girl from a big family, but I don't know who it was.
"Concubine Ning asked you to come over." The maid said again.
Chunlai was a little panicked: "The villain is going to take them to the concubine......"
"Niangniang speaks, do you dare to listen?" The maid's voice was raised.
Chunlai's body couldn't help but tremble, so he had to take them to a short distance.
There, there is a stunning beauty, tall and tall, with slightly foxy facial features, very tempting, that is, a little more glamorous than Jiang Rumei.
The palace is really beautiful!
If the queen is a fairy flower in the valley, this person is a mountain rose.
"I've seen the mother." Wu took the lead in saluting her.
Since she is a concubine, it is naturally one point higher than the grade of the concubine.
Concubine Ning snorted, her eyes fell on the faces of the four of them, and she smiled contemptuously: "It's really a family, I can barely see it, what are these?" ”
"It's for the concubine." Harulai answered on his behalf.
"Show me." Concubine Ning beckoned.
Jiang Sumei sighed in her heart, this Concubine Ning is not good, she must be finding fault, otherwise why should she look at the gifts given by others to her family?
Wu Shi hurriedly said: "It's all vulgar things, and they can't get into the eyes of the mother." ”
The Wu clan can also be called bent and stretched in this regard, and he was also extremely humble to a eunuch before.
Concubine Ning ignored it and opened it as usual.
Because he and his concubine did not return home after entering the palace, it has been a long time, and the Wu family came this time and brought a lot of things, as well as Jiang Xuezhen's favorite bad fish and pickles.
When Concubine Ning saw this, she laughed: "If it's really vulgar, these can also get into the mouth, and the concubine is really from the countryside!" ”
But this is such a girl, the emperor can like it, she has been resting there for three nights recently, and she hasn't slept with the emperor for a long time!
Concubine Ning threw the food on the ground and reprimanded: "Concubine He is now a noble person, and she can still eat this, if she has a bad stomach, how can it be good?" Can you afford it? ”
These were made by the Wu family herself, and her face sank at that time, but what was Concubine Ning's identity, she didn't dare to disobey, so she had to say yes in humiliation.
But Concubine Ning didn't mean to let them go, and she continued to look at them.
At this time, it was the late autumn and early winter, the wind was whirring outside, blowing cold on the face, Jiang Sumei was already very annoyed by the north wind that had eaten for so long, and seeing that she was still insulted by Concubine Ning, she gritted her teeth and stepped forward, saluted and said: "Forgive the offended concubine, only let's come here for a short time, if you delay any longer, I am afraid that I will just see the face of the concubine Niangniang, this is going to leave, how to reminisce?" The emperor was originally sympathetic and concubines, but if he asked at that time, he didn't know how to answer. ”
Concubine Ning's eyes narrowed, looking at Jiang Sumei.
"Who are you?" She suddenly remembered again, "Oh, the second young lady of the Yu family. ”
The Yu family was famous when the old man Yu was the first assistant, and she naturally heard about some of the situation of the Yu family, the eldest young lady of the Yu family was sick, this one looked very energetic, her eyes were clear and shining, and her demeanor was also from a big family, so she must be the second young lady Yu.
Jiang Sumei replied: "Exactly." ”
Concubine Ning snorted coldly: "Rashly interjected, aren't you afraid that I will slap your mouth?" ”
Jiang Sumei smiled slightly: "The concubine is telling the truth, if the mother thinks something is wrong, please correct it." ”
No matter what kind of concubine she is, the concubine is in full swing, otherwise as Concubine Ning, why would she be angry with their family, there must be no way to deal with the concubine, so why should she be afraid of Concubine Ning and grow her ambition? Even if she is a high-grade concubine, she is also the wife of a court official, what can Concubine Ning do? She's not a queen!
Besides, taking a step back, she is soft on Concubine Ning, and if she suffers these humiliations, will she let go of her concubine?
There is no such thing as a good thing!
Concubine Ning's cheeks twitched, she really didn't dare to do anything to Jiang Sumei, if she really slapped her in the face, the emperor would know about it, but it was a terrible thing.
She raised her eyebrows and said, "I'm thinking about the concubine, you people, you should pay attention everywhere when you come to the palace, don't lose face." He glanced at Jiang Sumei deeply, "I also made a note of what you said today." ”
Jiang Sumei bent down and sent her away, only saying: "I wish Niangniang's holy grace will always be there, and her youth will last forever." ”
Concubine Ning almost hit her foot and crooked her nose angrily.
She is not young, where is there any youth, and now the holy grace has moved away a little, Jiang Sumei's words really stabbed her the most, and made Concubine Ning clench her fists tightly with hatred.
When Hu saw Concubine Ning walking away, he spat out: "Bullying others, and don't look at what you look like!" ”
Obviously, she was trembling with fright just now, and now she is pretending to be bold again.
Wu shook his head and looked at Jiang Sumei: "I can offend Concubine Ning today, but she took the initiative to find trouble, I'm afraid that Xue Zhen will ...... her" She sighed, "Xue Zhen has a hard time in the palace." She wiped her eyes sadly.
"Auntie, and the concubine are favored, so those people are jealous, how can it not be considered a bad thing." Jiang Xuehui comforted her, "It's always like this, auntie relax a little." ”
Wu sighed, nodded, and told Jiang Sumei: "You can be patient with everything in the future." ”
She felt that Jiang Sumei should not fight back at Concubine Ning like this.
Jiang Sumei replied honestly: "If I am bullied by Concubine Ning today, I am afraid that she will be even more arrogant and feel that there is no one in the family with Concubine Niangniang, we don't have to tolerate such villains." ”
They are all masters who bully the weak and fear the hard, and their Yu family is not without strength, what are they afraid of?
Wu thought about it for a while, so he didn't say it anymore.
The group went straight to the Jade and Temple where Jiang Xuezhen lived.
At this time, the flowers gradually withered, only the chrysanthemums were proud, blooming on both sides of the road, purple and red, there were any colors, and people were dazzled to see.
Jiang Xuezhen personally greeted her and threw herself into Wu's arms.
The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried.
And then they parted.
"Why have you been so long?" Jiang Xuezhen tucked the corner of her eyes with a handkerchief and said angrily, "I waited for a while, didn't Chunlai pick you up early?" ”
Wu didn't answer for a while, and Hu hurriedly said: "It's not that I met Concubine Ning, and I threw away all the bad fish made by my mother, I'm really angry!" ”
"What?" Jiang Xuezhen's eyes widened, "She actually did this!" ”
"Yes, now that my mother is favored, I have to teach her a good lesson when I meet her in the future," Hu gritted his teeth, "How can you treat us like this?" Niangniang can tell the emperor, please let the emperor decide! ”
"Don't tell me nonsense." Wu snorted, "You shut up." ”
Hu's body shook and he didn't dare to speak.
"You are in the palace, you must be cautious when doing things, and you can't mention today's things to the emperor." Wu told her that she was aware of the battle between the harems, and if she made a mistake, she would never recover.
Jiang Xuezhen hummed and invited them into the hall to talk, but the mood was obviously not good.
