Chapter 253: It's Chinese New Year's Eve again
After Yin Qian finished speaking, Queen Gu's face was complicated for a moment, and she said lightly, telling Yin Qian to go back and give birth to a healthy baby, and strive to give Chun Jia a strong imperial heir.
"Niangniang, since Yin Zhaoyi is happy, if it is cold today, please ...... it" Seeing that the queen had nothing else to say besides these, Concubine Rui glanced at Yin Qian and coughed dryly, "Is it according to the old routine or?" ”
The old example was that when Ji Lingzi was in power, pregnant concubines could be exempted from asking for peace.
But this is special care at special times.
Because Chunjia was empty under his knees at that time, the imperial heirs in the palace could not be born, even if it was the most humble palace concubine, but whenever there was joy, it would alarm the former harem.
But now that there are eight heirs, even if it is a high-ranking pregnancy like Yin Qian, it is not so dangerous.
After all, what if Yin Qian wins a man in one fell swoop?
In terms of rankings, there are five princes; On the dignity of the mother, the two princes raised by the queen don't compare everyone else? In terms of the birth mother's background, who is worse than Yin Qian in Concubine De Xie?
Concubine Rui mentioned this at this time, but she took extra care of Yin Qian.
However, Gu Zhen knew that the four of them had always been close, so he didn't take it seriously, and said lightly: "Just follow the old routine." ”
Concubine Rui and Yin Qian hurriedly thanked her.
There was nothing else to do next, so the concubines were ready to retire, and usually Gu Zhen would not keep them, but this time, she thought about it, but asked Yun Fenghuan to stay and speak alone.
"Your Majesty mentioned to the palace about your promotion to the crown of concubine." Gu Zhen and Yun Fenghuang looked at each other with disgust, and when the concubines were gone, she didn't bother to be long-winded, and said straightforwardly, "In this way, among the four concubines, Concubine Shu and Concubine Xian are vacant, who do you think is more appropriate?" ”
Yun Fenghuang said: "It's good that the mother is in charge of this matter." ”
Anyway, Wei Hengyan has already occupied the position of Concubine De, and no one else under her for a while and a half is enough to be the fourth concubine, and she has no opinion on who is in the other two positions.
"It's just that I feel embarrassed that I want to call you down to discuss." Gu Zhen frowned and said, "The palace doesn't hide it from you, the princess Roukun mentioned at the previous court meeting is now on the road with Wei Qi's envoy, and we can see it at the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet." What the courtiers mean is that although this person is not qualified to match His Majesty, but for the sake of diplomatic relations between the two countries, the position of the four concubines must always be allowed. In this way, there is only one vacancy left for the four concubines. Originally, the most suitable was Concubine Rui, and His Majesty agreed. But now Yin Zhaoyi is happy, but it is a little tricky. ”
"Even if there is joy, she is a Zhaoyi, and there are two levels of wife and concubine." Ouyang Yanran's attitude was there, Yun Fenghuang always wanted to repay the peach, and immediately stood up with Concubine Rui, and said, "Besides, Yin Zhaoyi's temperament is far less stable and decent than Concubine Rui, and it is almost the same to be a concubine, and it is inevitable to be a little reluctant to be a fourth concubine." ”
Gu Zhen said: "But his father Yin Qu has always loved his daughter......"
"It's like we people don't love our fathers and mothers." Yun Fenghuang said lightly, "How many concubines in this world are not favored at home?" His Yin Qu's daughter is a sweetheart, are we people at home? Besides, this is a matter of the harem, His Majesty has left it to Niangniang, what qualifications does he have as a foreign minister? ”
Gu Zhen actually doesn't like Yin Qu and the like, it should be said that normal people don't like to be questioned within their own power, and it is not for Yin Qu to stay in the clouds, but mainly to see if Concubine Xian's attitude is consistent with herself.
Otherwise, she promoted someone with her front foot, wouldn't it be embarrassing for Yun Fenghuang to tear down the stage for her with her back foot?
At this time, seeing that Yun Fenglian was also in favor of Concubine Rui, he meant that he had two sentences of Yin Qu, which implied that she could go.
"Niangniang, this virtuous concubine is a big trust, Your Majesty now trusts Ouyang Yanran very much, even if the Ouyang family gives up their own grandchildren to marry the virtuous concubine, but the discerning people know that this is just a temporary gain of power for the virtuous concubine, once the status of the virtuous concubine is shaken, how can the Ouyang family always stand on her side? I had to support my family. After Concubine Xian left, she brewed new tea left and right, and said to Gu Zhen, "I really can't imagine that Concubine Xian will dare to carry Concubine Rui at this time, so I'm not afraid that after Concubine Rui is promoted to the fourth concubine, how many times will Concubine Rui be counterattacked?" ”
Gu Zhen sighed: "Why are you still saying this now?" When does the virtuous concubine compete for favor rely on the level of position? When she pit Yuan Neem Niang, Yuan Neem Niang was a concubine, what is she herself? ”
Thinking about it left and right, I also sighed slightly.
I really don't know why Bai Zi doesn't like honest people like their mother, and prefers those who are not easy like Yuan Neem Niang Yunfenghuang?
…… When Yun Fenghuang returned to the Huanhua Palace, he asked people to send a message to Concubine Rui, saying that the queen would leave her own to discuss.
Of course, she wouldn't tell Queen Rui that she also wanted to pick Concubine Rui to take the throne, but said: "There are only two vacancies in the four concubines, and one has to be left for Princess Wei Su, and the rest of the one, the palace hinted that the queen kept it for you a few days ago, but the queen was very hesitant to be happy today." Fang Cai Bengong talked to the queen in the Chongchang Hall for a while, and the queen reluctantly nodded. You have been working hard in the past two days, don't let the queen catch the mistake, when the time comes, the palace will not be able to help you exonerate, if you miss the opportunity, wouldn't you be annoyed? ”
Concubine Rui knew that there was moisture in these words, because Gu Zhen was not the kind of queen who would have to play with power, and she had always acted in the old ways.
Her position is above Yin Qian, and she has always held the power of the palace, and the quota of the four concubines should have given her priority.
But I still thanked him respectfully.
There is no way, Yun Fenghuang may not be able to ensure that she makes up for the fourth concubine, but it must be able to ruin her possibility of being promoted to the fourth concubine.
It's not easy to offend after all.
The small twists and turns caused by Yin Qi's pregnancy disappeared silently.
The time soon came to Chinese New Year's Eve, and it was only noon, and Yun Fenghuang began to make up according to the makeup, and Chen Jing came over to pray: "Wei Qi's envoy entered the city before, and there was indeed Princess Roukun with him, and he also said that he wanted to dance for His Majesty at the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet." ”
"But these people in the palace are also blessed with eyes." Yun Fenghuang had no interest in this alien princess, but he didn't mind giving her a dismount, and said lightly, "It's just that she wants to simply dance, they are all people who want to be concubines for Your Majesty, and they show up like this in public, but what do you think of the harem of our dynasty?" Can anyone enter? ”
Let Chen Jing tell the queen this opinion.
Empress Gu was very annoyed and said: "Princess Roukun's dance is reported by the Ministry of Rites, and Your Majesty has no objection, if Concubine Xian thinks it is inappropriate, it is better to tell Your Majesty yourself." The palace is very busy at this time, but there is no time to invite His Majesty over. ”
The main thing is that Chunjia is indeed very busy today, and the queen may not be able to invite it.
Chen Jing returned to the Huanhua Hall to resume his life, and asked Yun Fenghuan if he wanted to invite Chunjia over.
"The queen is not in a hurry for such a trivial matter, what are we anxious about?" Yun Fenghuang shook his head, Chun Jiana, this princess of Roukun, is nothing more than for the sake of the previous dynasty, whether this princess is virtuous and virtuous and guards women's ways, he doesn't care.
Why did she rush to remind him to keep an eye on people?
It's just a matter of blocking people, and if it doesn't work out, forget it.
Then he waved his hand so that Chen Jing didn't have to worry about this matter, and asked how to dress up in other palaces, so that it was serious for him to be glamorous.
In the evening, the dressed concubine helped Chen Jing's hand to step onto the chariot, because the two imperial heirs were too young, she didn't bring them, but led the two nieces to the banquet together.
When she went out, she pinched the hours, and at this time the people had already arrived, and even Wei Su's envoys were sitting underneath.
When Yun Fenghuang went down to look for Princess Roukun, these people were also asking her about her identity.
So a girl surrounded by them with childish eyebrows and a somewhat graceful figure just happened to look good, and glanced at Yun Fenghuang.
Yun Fenghuang just glanced at it casually, but the girl's eyes were very provocative with a newborn calf.
With a touch of his gaze, Yun Fenghuang chuckled lightly, and said left and right: "But that's it, what is the first beauty of the grassland, that's it." ”
In fact, these words deliberately belittle Princess Roukun, to be fair, this girl's appearance is very good, and Yunfeng Huang is considered Chunlan Qiuju, each with its own merits, but it is inferior to Yi Xingen's stunning appearance.
Now that Yun Fenghuan said this, of course, the left and right echoed it, muttering that Princess Roukun was not good, and he also knew that Concubine Xian's attitude did not like this princess.
And Princess Roukun raised her chin and asked in a low voice: "That's Concubine Xian?" The favorite concubine of the Central Plains Son of Heaven? ”
"She is the favorite concubine of the Central Plains Son of Heaven in the past two years." An official under her told in a low voice, "A few years ago, the most favored by the Son of Heaven in the Central Plains was Mrs. Chunke, who grew up with his childhood sweetheart, and it seems that she hasn't come yet." After this virtuous concubine entered the palace, it is said that she quickly defeated Mrs. Chun Ke and won the favor of the Son of Heaven in the Central Plains. Their current queen is the second, and it is rumored that both the Empress Yuan and this successor are very jealous of this virtuous concubine, and there is nothing they can do about her. ”
After a pause, he said, "The eldest son and eldest daughter of the Son of Heaven are now being raised by this virtuous concubine. Of course, the princess doesn't have to worry, your entry into the palace involves diplomatic relations between the two countries, and Concubine Xian should not take the initiative to find fault in a daze. ”
Princess Roukun snorted and said, "I don't think this virtuous concubine is very good. The vision of the Son of Heaven in the Central Plains is not very good. ”
"Don't say that, princess." The official heard the resentment in her words, and frowned slightly, Princess Roukun is the daughter of Mu E Khan, and she is also the most beautiful daughter, she has been deeply loved by her parents since she was a child, and her personality is inevitably a little pampered.
Originally, the grassland daughter was not an ignorant person, and it was nothing to be arranged to come to the Central Plains and get married.
The key is that Wei Su is in the north of the country, and when he comes to the imperial capital, of course, he passes through the north.
And there are no outstanding talents in the north in recent years, the most legendary is the rise of the virtuous concubine, Sang Zi's father and honor, coupled with the deliberate promotion of the Xie family, Yun Fenghuang is now very prestigious in the north, and there are many stories about how she is gentle, virtuous, and beautiful, so as soon as she entered the palace, she was favored by the emperor and raised the emperor's eldest son and eldest daughter.
Princess Roukun is young and vigorous, and at the beginning she listened to the story with relish, but then she was a little bored, do you think your virtuous concubine is so powerful? According to the words of Middle-earth, this princess is a golden branch and jade leaf, and it is not so exaggerated in the grassland.
Therefore, this person has not yet arrived in the imperial capital, and he already has some opinions about Concubine Xian.
At this moment, seeing that Concubine Xian is certainly beautiful, but she may not be better than her, she feels more and more that the rumors are wrong, and she is quite disdainful: "Don't worry, you all said it, I will be a concubine for the Son of Heaven in the Central Plains, it is a major matter involving the diplomatic relations between the two countries, does this Concubine Xian dare to take me?" ”
…… Yun Fenghuang really dared.
At this moment, she turned the small wine cup in front of her, her eyes drooped slightly, and she said to Concubine De next to her: "The queen discussed with the palace before, saying that Princess Roukun is a foreign visitor after all, and her position is too low. But Hongu thought about it just now and felt that it was not quite appropriate. After all, you noble girls, who is not from a noble background than her? At this time, there are no four concubines. As soon as it came up, it was too flamboyant for the fourth concubine, so let's start with Jieyu first. Anyway, the princess is young, and it will be decent to raise her position after giving birth to children in the future. ”
Concubine De was naturally obedient to her, nodded, and asked her henchman to go down to find her father and brother and said.
After all, the position of Princess Roukun was agreed upon at the court meeting, and if you want to change it, you have to start in the previous court.
However, after arranging someone to pass the word, Concubine De was a little curious, and whispered: "Sister has always been magnanimous, why don't you like this princess Roukun?" ”
If this is said openly, I am afraid that many people will think that Concubine De is shameless, and she can say anything in order to flatter Concubine Xian.
But in fact, Concubine De really thinks so.
If Yun Fenghuan is not magnanimous, can he recommend her to be Concubine De?
Replace Yuan Neem Niang, you try it.
"It's nothing." Yun Fenghuang said leisurely, "It's just that her eyes are beautiful, but Bengong doesn't like them." ”
Concubine De gasped, thought about her position, and after thinking about herself, she gritted her teeth and stomped her feet, and said in a deep voice: "Sister, don't worry, my sister will definitely take it down for you when she turns back!" ”
"......" Yun Fenghuang was silent for a moment, patted the back of her hand gently, and said softly, "Let's be concubines, don't be so cruel." Clean up and let her know what to look at us, that is, gouge out your eyes at every turn, like what words? ”
Isn't this yet a formal contact?
If you don't listen to the training, it's not too late to do it again.
