In the next few days, the emperor summoned Zhang Chuyao to sleep, and for a while, this sick and weak Chang who had almost disappeared began to become in the limelight in the harem.

Her family history was also spread by jealous concubines.

This Zhang Chuyao is not from a wealthy family, his father is not an official but a small official, the so-called officials, although they are all subordinate to the officialdom, but they are two lines, the officials are either from the family and have been officials for several generations, or they have been admitted to the imperial examination, these people are called the protégés of the Son of Heaven, and their identities are also noble.

People in the world often say that the nine-grade sesame official, but even the nine-grade sesame official is also in charge of the military and political power of one party, and the common people have to call themselves adults when they see it, and they have to kneel and kowtow, but the officials are different, and the officials serve the officials.

In order for a local yamen to operate, in addition to officials, it also needs a considerable number of staff, such as county officials and officials, who are collectively referred to as officials.

Zhang Chuyao is the daughter of the county Cheng.

Although this background is much better than the palace maid climbing on the bed, it is still not enough in the eyes of the palace concubines from the family, especially in the eyes of the subordinates, it is even inferior to Zhao Luzhu, at least they still have money.

Zhao Luzhu can still use money to open the way, coaxing the palace maids and eunuchs to praise her, Zhang Chuyao does not have this advantage, and her father's status is low, so she has gained countless white eyes and abuse.

"I heard that she got sick when she entered the palace, why didn't she die of illness."

"People call this a means, such shameless tricks to try desperately to climb up, we can't do it, we don't have to embarrass the family."

"What kind of face do their families want, if they can't be a father, they expect their daughter to glorify their ancestors."

There is no shortage of noble-born concubines in the harem, and they enter the palace, not so much to add glory to the family, but to say that the royal family needs them in order to win over their families and maintain imperial power while making the country more stable.

For example, Chang Xueli, although she is not favored and has no children, but because of the strength of the family, her father and brother are both officials in the court, so even the Queen Mother gives her some face.

Another example is Zhuang Mei, her father and brother all sacrificed for the country, for the sake of example, and at the same time let the soldiers know that the emperor will not forget their efforts, so since entering the palace, she has been promoted all the way, and now she has become a concubine.

These concubines are not sour, after all, people can be reincarnated, and it is also a skill to be reincarnated, but what does Zhang Chuyao have, so they can't look down on her.

But Zhang Chuyao has Zhang Chuyao's ability, at least to make the emperor happy.

Tang Jingchen sat quietly in his own position in the main hall of Cining Palace, listening to the discussions of the concubines or sour or envious, but he felt in his heart that they were all mediocre people, the emperor is the emperor, who does the emperor like, what can others fight for, no matter how jealous Zhang Chuyao is, he will not delay the rest of the people.

She looked up at the Queen Mother, who was looking down and sipping tea, as if she was indifferent to everything in front of her.

Today is the first day of the seventh month, and the first day of each month is the day when the concubines collectively ask the queen mother for peace, theoretically all the concubines are the daughters-in-law of the queen mother, and they have to serve on the side every day, but the queen mother is so quiet and doesn't care about harem affairs, so it is enough for everyone to ask for peace once a month.

Putting down the teacup, the Queen Mother coughed lightly, and the bottom immediately became quiet.

"The emperor likes Zhang Changzai, that is Zhang Changzai's ability, you have this envy, jealousy and hatred of kung fu, and you can also grow your ability to attract the emperor's attention." The Queen Mother has always been kind and kind in front of people, and rarely said such harsh words, and all the concubines couldn't help but hold their breath, and the atmosphere began to become embarrassing.

The Queen Mother sneered, "Zhang Changzai's background is lower, but don't forget, no one is born to be an official, which family does not rise from the bottom, and which family can continue to be glorious for a long time?" ”

The concubines became more and more afraid to speak, and a few people who were talking about Zhang Chuyao's background tried their best to shrink their bodies to reduce their sense of existence, wishing that there was a crack in the ground to hide.

"The mourning family also came from the concubines, and they know your methods, but you remember, whoever the emperor likes is equal to who the mourning family likes, and whoever can't get along with the person the emperor likes is not able to get along with the mourning family, do you all understand?"

The concubines are all in their hearts, and the Queen Mother rarely beats people, but now she does not hesitate to admonish everyone for Zhang Chuyao, which is simply unprecedented.

Some bold people couldn't help but glance at Tang Jingchen, when she was favored in the past, the Queen Mother never defended her, not only did she not maintain it, but the miserable experiences she experienced were also the Queen Mother's methods.

However, no matter what they thought in their hearts, no one dared to be presumptuous in front of the Queen Mother, and after a short silence, everyone collectively responded "yes".

The Queen Mother sighed lowly, and then softened her tone, "Since you have entered the palace, you are all the daughters-in-law of the mourning family, and the mourning family naturally hopes that everyone who is favored will have sons, but this is not something that can be done by thinking, otherwise the palace would not be so deserted until now." ”

This is complaining that the concubines are derelict in their duties, they not only have to accompany the king when they enter the palace, but the most important duty is to open up the branches for the royal family, but now the emperor's living children are only two princesses and an elder brother, which is too little.

But then again, the first emperor didn't have many children, and the emperor was a brother of King Dejun, so the queen mother's methods back then were actually well known to everyone.

However, she was the winner of the last palace fight, and no one dared to expose her shortcomings in front of her.

The Queen Mother said again: "Zhang Chang is in this person, the mourning family looks very good, she doesn't have many hearts, she is peaceful, she is favored, it is better than the vicious one, don't you say?" ”

The concubines were even more speechless, so they had to respond "yes" in unison again.

After everything that should be said has been said, and what should be beaten has been beaten, the Queen Mother waved her hand and began to give the eviction order, "Okay, after saying so much, the mourning family is also lacking, you all disperse." ”

If all the concubines were amnesty, they all saluted and withdrew from Cining Palace one by one according to their status, and the queen mother and Shu Ying were pregnant and the queen mother was specially exempted from asking for peace, so the concubine Chang Xueli was the highest in the audience, and everyone watched her go first.

Chang Xueli glanced at Tang Jingchen, "If Concubine Jing's sister is idle, it is better to go to the palace to sit and chat, and it is good to relieve boredom." ”

Since she began to take the initiative to show affection, Tang Jingchen has never been sure what she meant, at this time, seeing her inviting herself, and in front of the concubines, she didn't know what to say for a while, and thought for a moment and said: "There are still some affairs to deal with in the concubine palace, and if the concubine is still idle after the processing, the concubine must not disturb the mother." ”

She didn't agree, but she didn't refuse, but said a lively word, so that whether she went or not, the initiative was in her own hands.

Chang Xueli smiled indifferently, "It's okay, whether you go or not, don't forget to send someone to send a letter to the palace in advance." ”
