Chapter Eighty-Six: Xile's Intention
After a while, Xile walked in quickly, her sideburns were fluffy, her face was still a little dusty, her eyes were shining brightly, and there was not much haste between her expressions. ”
"Then why are you here?" Yun Fenghuan looked at her, and found that there were some inconspicuous stains on the corners of her skirt, and raised her eyebrows slightly, "Still like this?" ”
Xile said with a smile: "Since the last time Wannian County failed to serve you, I have been looking for opportunities to learn riding. No, in the past two days, in the name of Niangniang, I got a horse in the back mountain to practice, and I have saved some experience. When I came over today, I had the courage to ride a horse by myself, but I was not very skilled, so I could only run on the official road. ”
"You've got a heart!" Yun Fenghuang is very satisfied with the progress of the servants, she still has few people on the top of her head now, it seems that Xile's steady and calm breath is originally an arm, and she doesn't need to supervise herself to learn riding skills at this time, which is really a model among her henchmen.
Overjoyed, he instructed Nian Xuan to take a set of hair noodles for his own use and reward them to Xile on the spot.
Nian Xuan learned a little again, "If you are all like Xile, this palace will be relaxed!" ”
Nian Xuan is not a person who likes to pinch the tip, and said with a smile when she heard this: "Niangniang, the maid will ride a horse with you in the morning, and you don't need to learn it again." ”
After saying a few words, Xile thanked the reward, and humbled himself again, before he explained his intention to come over in person: "There has been no change in the palace in the past two days, that is, the Empress Dowager has rewarded some clothes and jewelry in the Sixth Palace because of the birthday of the Empress Dowager, and it is probably a big banquet at that time, I am afraid that the palace concubines who have only entered the palace this year will not dress up." ”
The main thing is that there are too many things this year, and the palace has been enriched by so many people at once, and the emperor has just succeeded in seizing power, and he is busy like something, and he can't sleep at all - now many people in the palace are still in the position of picking women, that is, they have not slept in the palace, the share is low, there is no marriage, and they can't even get together a complete set of jewelry, and the dresses are still a few sets of clothes that participated in the selection when they entered the palace...... Isn't it a shame to make wallflowers for the birthday banquet of the Empress Dowager like this?
It is also the right thing for the Empress Dowager to give a reward at this time, so Xile specially sent Yun Fenghuang's share over: "Originally, it was enough to let other people come to tell you about this, but the maid thought that you have not officially made a concubine's dress." The Empress Dowager rewarded you with just the right material this time, why don't you just do it? It's just that the servant hasn't handled this before, so I have to ask for your thoughts in person, and I can talk to the Shangfu Bureau when I go back. ”
The dynasty inherited the rules of the harem of the previous dynasty, and the concubines' dresses were divided into two classes: the flower hairpin Zhai clothes used for canonization, silkworm ceremonies, and the hairpin dresses used for less important formal occasions.
On the queen mother's birthday, the hairpin dress became - but Yunfeng Huang is an outlier in the court, unlike Gu Zhen and other noblewomen who have just entered the palace and are high-ranking noblewomen, and before entering the palace, the Shangfu Bureau prepared a dress and matching jewelry; It is also different from the low-level palace concubines who are promoted step by step, and have enough time to save equipment.
Coupled with the time when she was promoted to the concubine position, it happened that there were constant things in the harem, and the queen forgot about it, and the Shangfu Bureau had no orders
Didn't think about it either.
came and went, and the dignified Mao Jieyu didn't have a dress so far.
At this time, he was reminded by Xile, that is, he was solemn: "What you said is that if you didn't come to remind you, this palace is afraid that you will not wear regular clothes to the Empress Dowager He Cimu." ”
So the two began to discuss the production of the dress, this material was originally from the Shangfu Bureau, so it was decent. If the concubine is particular about it, it is not impossible to make it with her own materials. And although the dress has regulations and cannot be overcome, there is also some room for the concubines to play by themselves.
The master and servant discussed for an hour, and finally finalized the matter, and Yun Fenghuang asked Nian Xuan to go out to get some food, saying that he was hungry.
After Nian Xuan left, he sent the rest of the people out, and Fang frowned and asked, "You don't need to come in person for such a thing...... What's going on? ”
“…… It's the word from the Son. Xile showed a look of helplessness and whispered, "Didn't Niangniang order it before, but still contact the prince in private?" Therefore, the servant is not good at disobeying, so she can only hurriedly find a reason to come. ”
After all, although Yun Fenghuang dug the corner of Gong Xiangxiao's wall, he still wanted to continue to use the Imperial City Division in Gong Xiangxiao's hands; As for Xile, although she betrayed her former master, she still hopes that the former master will know as late as possible, and it is better not to know until she dies......
Therefore, the two tacitly did not reveal that what Xile is really loyal to now is Yun Fenghuang.
In this way, after receiving a message from Gong Xiangxiao asking her to come over, Xile could only run once.
"Your Majesty will go hunting far away tomorrow, I remember that Gongxiangxiao and they will accompany them, and the forbidden army is responsible for guarding the villa." Yun Fenghuan was quite puzzled when he heard this, and said to himself, "What did he ask you to come over for at this time?" ”
It can't be to meet Qi Jiulu - Qi Jiulu shouldn't have wanted to die so much - before in the palace city, in Wannian County, it was all the territory of the Imperial City Division, and it was okay.
But in the Spring Villa, there are people from the emperor and the Empress Dowager Yuan, and there are forbidden troops outside, that is, people from the Zheng family, who have a private meeting with foreign men in this kind of place, isn't this death? Well, that letter from before?
"The servant doesn't know." Xile also looked confused, and asked in a low voice, "Why don't you go back to the palace first after a while?" ”
Yun Fenghuang thought for a while, and said to himself, "Could it be that it has something to do with Mrs. Yaoning?" Well, what does Gong Xiangxiao have to do with the Gu family? ”
Xile shook her head awkwardly, saying that she didn't know either: "If the master's master is alive, he will probably know something, but after the master goes, the handmaid will also be treated coldly by the Imperial City Division." It was only later that he entered the palace of the queen and got the orders of the prince. ”
"The regent's representative in the palace is Mrs. Yaoning and Lu Jieyu." Yun Fenghuang groaned, "Lu Jieyu is the sister of the regent's step-concubine, the aunt of the regent's youngest son, and of course she is the opposite of Gong Xiangxiao. As for Mrs. Yaoning...... This man's father is the regent's confidant......"
So from the standpoint of Gong Xiangxiao, for Jieyu Lu Qidao, he must want to kill him quickly, but for Mrs. Yaoning, he should try his best to win him over.
After all, Lu Qidao has a deep relationship with Princess Lu's mother and son
, and the hope of supporting Gong Xiangxiao is very slim.
But Mrs. Yaoning and the Gu family behind her have the possibility of supporting the regent's original concubine.
Could it be that Gong Xiangxiao is playing this idea?
Yun Fenghuan thought of this: the emperor didn't want to make a big move when he went hunting this time, so he didn't let a large number of concubines and attendants come over, and only brought her and Gu Zhen and the two concubines, and only some of the attendants of the two came...... The reason why they were picked was because they both knew how to ride and shoot, which was convenient for accompaniment.
But in fact, although she and Gu Zhen have been accompanied by Gu Zhen in the past few days, the emperor is not satisfied with the harvest, and when he plans to go out tomorrow, won't he forcibly leave both of them in the villa?
Xile is a palace maid, even under the banner of Yunfeng Huang, learning riding is definitely not as convenient as the palace concubine, and she has learned to ride a horse by stitches. If the emperor wants to take other people and arrange some days of school in advance, what is the difficulty of running around with the team on the plains?
Before leaving, Yun Fenghuan was thinking, the emperor specially brought her and Gu Zhen this time, what is the picture?
Thinking about it now, is it possible...... Just to give Gongxiangxiao a chance?
After all, the regent is powerful, there must be a battle between the emperor and this cheap uncle, and the ready-made palace has a dispute between the concubine and the stepfamily, how can Chunjia not take advantage of it.
But......
If this is really an opportunity for the emperor to give Gong Xiangxiao an opportunity to win over the Gu family......
Yun Fenghuang bit his lip, should he ...... Chunjia also knows that he has something to do with Gong Xiangxiao?
That's why you will have a reason to leave, and let yourself and Gong Xiangxiao join forces to calculate Gu Zhen?
Is this emperor so enduring?
Although she and Qi Jiulu met privately a few times, although they did not cross the last step, there was no lack of intimate behavior, normal men should feel that they had grassland on their heads, right? But the emperor is still nothing...... Oh yes, this person said that as long as the concubines other than Yuan Neem Niang didn't give birth to adulterous children and pretend to be the emperor's heirs, he didn't care......
Sure enough, it is not easy to endure under Ji's nose for eight years and turn over successfully.
Yun Fenghuan sighed in his heart, and said to Xile: "Since there is nothing to do in the palace, then you can stay for the time being, and I will let Liuhong go back to help watch the dots." You are still there Chen Zhu on the left and right, and he is also careful. ”
Although it was suspected that the emperor might know about her private meeting with Qi Jiulu, Yun Fenghuang didn't intend to draw a line with Gong Xiangxiao like this - after all, everything was done, even if she became a chaste martyr from now on, the emperor probably wouldn't admit it.
So why do you give up such a useful help from the Imperial City Division for such a little suspicion?
Anyway, the emperor can endure pretending to know nothing, so it is difficult for her to turn herself in without being able to hold her breath!
The most important thing is to help Gong Xiangxiao calculate Gu Zhen and not hinder her from anything, and even leave her a way out in the future - in case the emperor loses to the regent in the battle, does she expect Gong Xiangxiao to suppress her brother and enter the East Palace?
Thinking so, Yun Fenghuang also decided to let Xile stay and wait for the follow-up, and when Nian Xuan came back after a while, she asked Nian Xuan to call Liuhong to her, and she pulled it casually
For a reason, send her back to the palace to help Chen Zhu with Ming'er.
Both the master and servant thought that the news might be delivered in the evening, but the night was peaceful.
The next morning, the waiters waited for Yun Fenghuang to change clothes and freshen up, and then hugged her to Liuchun Hall to greet the emperor.
The emperor was still having breakfast, and when he saw Jieyu coming, he invited her to join him.
Yun Fenghuang was not polite, and when he sat down, he asked for a few small dishes that he liked to eat, and at this time Gu Zhen also came, and he frowned when he saw her move - but because of the fiasco during this period of time, she stubbornly resisted the urge to teach this impolite Jieyu a lesson, and only blessed the emperor, and said: "Concubine wishes Your Majesty all the best on this trip." ”
"The same is true for concubines." Yun Fenghuang swallowed a mouthful of bird's nest porridge and smiled sweetly at the emperor, "If Your Majesty hunts a lot of good skins, can you give some to the concubine when the time comes?" The concubine's family is poor, and she hasn't prepared a fox fur for this winter. ”
Gu Zhen couldn't help it a little: "Your Majesty's hunting this time is to sacrifice the birthday of the Empress Dowager of Loving Mother, Mao Jieyu, you have overstepped!" ”
"What is the Passover? The reason why His Majesty plans to go farther today is that he can't look at the harvest of these two days. Yun Fenghuang glanced over, "The concubine didn't say that she would rob the Empress Dowager of Mercy, but the Empress Dowager and Her Majesty couldn't look down on her, and she just wanted to have a little autumn breeze with Your Majesty!" Your Majesty didn't say anything! Why does Sister Yaoning wear everything in gold and silver by herself, and she can't see her sister who is also a concubine getting some leftovers? ”
“…… After the autumn in the palace, I will prepare the materials, and I can't freeze you! Gu Zhen gritted his teeth and said angrily, "So Jieyu don't be shallow-eyed, see the stitches and needles want this and that!" ”
Yun Fenghuang blinked, "oh", as if he didn't hear her sarcasm, he turned his head and smiled sweetly at the emperor: "The concubine still wants His Majesty to hunt it himself, the concubine likes His Majesty the most, and His Majesty also brings a gadget to the concubine, whatever it is, anyway, the concubine given by His Majesty likes it!" ”
Here it comes again, and here it goes!!
Gu Zhen's forehead was bruised, every time! Both! Such!
This unruly Jieyu has no face and no skin at all, and when she talks about it, she flirts with the emperor as if no one is around, Gu Zhen is a well-behaved person, and he simply can't look down on this kind of frivolous style - but the emperor doesn't care, and even a little bit of fun, at this moment Chunjia completely ignores Gu Zhen's face, and said with a smile: "You say this every time you want something, it's hard for me to believe you." ”
Yun Fenghuan simply moved to sit beside him, pulled his sleeves and swayed, and said coquettishly: "How can anyone have it? What people say in their hearts, Your Majesty doesn't believe them, people are so sad! ”
"......" Gu Zhen's goosebumps rose when he heard this, and the emperor was smiling, not annoyed at all, and she pestered for a while, just connived: "That's it, I really can't help you, when the time comes, I'll see if there is anything fun and beautiful to bring you some, if not, you are not allowed to make trouble again." ”
This emperor and concubine looked at Gu Zhen as if he was nothing, Gu Zhen stood silent for a while, and walked out directly - as soon as she went out, Yun Fenghuang threw off the emperor's sleeve and continued to pick up the spoon for breakfast!
This made the emperor very speechless, took a sip of tea, and said uneasily: "When I leave in a while, should you fight with Yao Ning immediately?" ”
