Chapter 232: The Contest with Concubine Jin
Hearing Concubine Jin say this, Gu Yun smiled in her heart, "Concubine Jin is really a winner, her appearance is beautiful and ugly, all of them are white bones under the skin, what is the difference between appearance, appearance, and appearance?" ”
"It's really rare for you girl to see so clearly at such a young age." The Queen Mother smiled lightly.
"Imperial grandmother, my mother often says, you must understand your identity as a person, everything Yunxin has today is given by the prince, if there is no prince, Yunxin is just the daughter of an official and the many ladies in Kyoto are the same, even if the prince gives Yunxin everything, Yunxin must know how to be grateful, and don't make trouble for the prince." Gu Yunxin said with a light smile.
This is a hint to Concubine Jin, everything she has today is given by the emperor, if she can keep to herself, then Gu Yunxin will not care about other things.
The Queen Mother was very satisfied with Gu Yunxin's words, but she didn't know if this Concubine Jin could change, and then, when the Queen Mother continued to drink tea, she secretly glanced at the emperor, and now the emperor's favor for Concubine Jin, I'm afraid that she won't be willing to let people show Concubine Jin's face.
Hearing this, Concubine Jin raised her eyebrows slightly, and looked at Gu Yunxin's expression and became a little resentful, "King Rui's favor for the princess is known throughout Da Zhou, since the princess has given the princess favor, then the princess should be favored by him, otherwise, wouldn't it be a disappointment to the prince's heart?" ”
"Disappointed? What does this mean? Gu Yunxin pretended to be puzzled.
"The princess is also favored by the princess, and the princess doesn't even want the side concubine for the princess, isn't the princess happy about the princess's favor?" Concubine Jin smiled lightly.
"Naturally happy? I don't know why Concubine Jin said that? ”
"Hehe, what the princess said just now, the palace naturally understands, but the princess only thinks that she is favored by her husband, and others can't? As an emperor, the emperor has the emperor's helplessness. The emperor's favorite person before was Emperor Mu's concubine, and he had been thinking about it for so many years, since the emperor could see the shadow of Emperor Mu's concubine here, as long as the emperor was happy, the palace would not care about these. ”
Concubine Jin's words, the emperor who listened to it showed a smile on his face, the women of this harem will only compete for favor, which makes him headache and upset, but this Concubine Jin always stays quietly on the side and never competes with any concubine for favor.
What's more, in the emperor's heart, the charm of Concubine Jin is a little irresistible, Concubine Jin's beauty is the best in his current palace, and she does not have the power of the maternal clan in the court, such a woman, even if she is given more favor, she will not make waves.
"Concubine Jin is really generous, she is willing to imitate others." Zhan Xinyue said disdainfully.
Hearing Zhan Xinyue say this, the emperor raised his eyebrows slightly, and finally suppressed the anger in his heart.
"Since this palace is to make the emperor happy, it is natural to become what the emperor likes. The palace has no maternal power in the court, and there are no friends in this harem, so the princess of Xiangyang doesn't have to care, the palace
What purpose will it be. Concubine Jin smiled lightly.
Hearing this, Gu Yunxin raised her eyebrows slightly, this Jin Concubine really spoke well, and she originally wanted to be able to find out, who is this Jin Concubine close to, but according to what she said, the women in the harem have no contact with her.
Gu Yunxin must have been skeptical. After all, if this Jin Concubine wants to suddenly rise in the harem, someone must help her, even if she wants to design an encounter with the emperor, she needs the right time, place and people.
"The queen mother, the son has to deal with the political leaders, the son will go back to the imperial study first, and the son will come to the queen mother tomorrow to say goodbye." The emperor said in a deep voice.
"Okay, the government is important, you can deal with it first. Concubine Jin shouldn't have anything to do, stay and talk to the mourning family. The Queen Mother glanced at Concubine Jin and said.
If there is no emperor in front of him, it is okay to reprimand or even punish Concubine Jin. But the emperor seemed to see the queen mother's thoughts, and then said lightly: "Queen Mother, my son is used to letting Concubine Jin serve the pen and ink by the side, so let her go to the imperial study with her son." ”
"Emperor, have you forgotten the rules of your ancestors? Leave Concubine Jin here, are you afraid that the mourning family will eat her? The Queen Mother said angrily.
"Queen Mother, the son doesn't mean this, the son ......" The emperor didn't know how to explain to the queen mother for a while.
"Your Majesty, you should be busy with the government affairs first, the concubines will stay here to accompany the queen mother first, and wait for the pigeon soup in the palace to be stewed, and the concubines will take the soup to the imperial study for you, okay?" Concubine Jin curled her lips and smiled lightly.
"Okay, then I'll deal with the government first." After finishing speaking, the emperor reluctantly left Funing Palace.
After the emperor stepped away, Concubine Jin slowly sat down at the end of the right side, and the Queen Mother's cold eyes swept and said sharply: "Presumptuous, did the mourning family let you sit?" You just sit down? Are you mourning the queen mother? ”
"The queen mother, the concubine is not, the concubine is just a little tired from standing, and she wants to sit down and rest, and the queen mother is also tolerant, and she won't really let the concubine stand, right?" Concubine Jin said softly.
Hearing this, Gu Yunxin hooked her lips and smiled lightly, this Jin Concubine is really two skins, in front of the emperor, she is a weak and bullying woman, but in front of the queen mother, she has such an arrogant face.
"Hongxuan, Hongling, Concubine Jin disrespects the Queen Mother, give this concubine a good lesson." Gu Yunxin said in a deep voice.
"Yes, master." Hongxuan and Hongling led the way forward.
Hearing Gu Yunxin's order, Concubine Jin was slightly stunned, "Princess Rui, how can you say that this palace is the emperor's concubine, you disrespect this palace so much, but your Rui Wangfu is disrespectful to the emperor, or do you Rui Wangfu want to seek a dynasty to usurp the throne?" That's why you don't put this palace in your eyes? ”
"Concubine Jin, do you think that your instigation can separate the trust of your father and King Rui? This concubine is the concubine of King Rui, you are just a proton who pays tribute, a proton who climbs onto the dragon bed, and you dare to negotiate conditions with this concubine? Gu Yunxin raised his eyebrows slightly.
Hongxuan grabbed Concubine Jin and pushed her to her knees
, Hongling reached out and tapped her acupoint, then took out a few silver needles from her sleeves, and shook them in front of Concubine Jin.
Concubine Jin looked at the silver needle in Hongling's hand, and couldn't help but shudder, she had been in the palace for many years, so she was naturally familiar with the methods in this palace.
Although the emperor ordered that the harem concubines were not allowed to punish the palace maids and eunuchs at will, if the master wanted to be angry and was afraid of being seen, he had to think of some way to come out.
Execution, is the most commonly used method in this harem, if you use a silver needle to stab the arm or back of the palace eunuch, the wound is small, and it will not bleed, but the pain is still the same.
And piercing a needle into a finger can make people faint in pain, and if it is serious, the person's hand will be useless.
Concubine Jin looked at Hongling's slowly approaching silver needle, and kept shouting in her heart, but she was dumb and couldn't scream at all.
Her maidservants have been guarding the courtyard, and no one will know what happened to her. If someone goes to ask the emperor for help at this time, then she must repay it well.
Hongling held the silver needle in her hand and gently drilled into Concubine Jin's fingers, Gu Yunxin looked at her condescendingly, "Concubine Jin, what kind of flattering means did you use to make your father so infatuated with you?" ”
Concubine Jin made a whining sound, she wanted to argue, but she couldn't make a sound at all, Gu Yunxin gave Hongling a look, Hongling quickly clicked on Concubine Jin's pain point and unlocked her dumb hole.
"The emperor is infatuated with me, naturally he has my uniqueness, so Princess Rui can make many men infatuated with you, can she also use any despicable means?" Concubine Jin snorted coldly.
"Presumptuous, just because you are worthy of being compared with Princess Rui? Princess Rui is a noble birth, and there is a way to be a fair lady and gentleman, even if someone is infatuated, how can Princess Rui pay attention to them? The Queen Mother said angrily.
This Concubine Jin is interrogating her now, why is the problem involved in Princess Rui, she is really messing around.
"Concubine Jin, no matter how good King Rui is to this princess, he will not let this concubine do anything out of line. And you are different, you have been in the palace for many years, and your father only pampered you a few times when you first entered the palace, and when you left Princess Wanxuan, you didn't have much interest in you. ”
Concubine Jin picked the broken hair on her sideburns behind her ear with one hand, and said with a smug face: "Princess Rui, you even have to take care of the affairs of the emperor's harem, are you also a little too wide?" If you let the emperor know, aren't you afraid that King Rui will be reprimanded by the emperor? ”
"Concubine Jin, do you really think that if you don't say it, this concubine will have no way to know? You have been neglected for many years, and you are suddenly favored, how can you not arouse the suspicion of others, your country was also scared by the Great Zhou, so you submitted the letter of surrender and became a vassal state of the Great Zhou, and you could have been your princess in your country, but it was sent as a gift, the concubine didn't believe it, you have not had a trace of hatred over the years. ”
"The emperor loves me so much, how can I hate me, Princess Rui, why do you want to add to the crime? If you have evidence, you will show it, if not, this palace will not bear such a crime. Concubine Jin said proudly.
"Concubine Jin, you are so arrogant, tell me quickly, did you use any despicable means against the emperor? Don't think that if the emperor protects you, the mourning family will not dare to do anything to you, tell you, even if the mourning family wants to kill you, the emperor will not turn his face with the mourning family. The Queen Mother said angrily.
"Really? Then the queen mother can try it, if there is any damage to the palace, will the emperor turn his face with you. ”
Seeing that Concubine Jin was so sure, Gu Yunxin knew that this Concubine Jin was much more difficult to deal with than he imagined. If they deal with Concubine Jin, they will really anger the emperor, then they need to change their methods. And today, she can be regarded as a showdown with Concubine Jin, and the next thing is to see who moves faster.
Suddenly, Concubine Jin shouted loudly: "Help, Ah Yao......" Although Hongling also ordered Concubine Jin's acupoint, she still called for help.
After Hongling left the room, the maidservant girl named A-Yao had already fled without a trace......
