Chapter 1029: Unscrupulous means

When Concubine Shu heard that Zhu Guinu was sent to the emperor's tent last night, she angrily pulled off the hairpin on her head and slapped it on the table, and the luxurious hairpin broke off in response.

"Mother, don't be angry."

Cuihe was worried that the hairpin would scratch Concubine Shugui's hand, so she hurriedly stepped forward to take away the broken hairpin on the table.

"This is a reward from the emperor, and the slave maid will let the hairpin be repaired later, and it will be said that the slave maid accidentally broke it."

The most important thing for the concubines in the harem is to obey the three obedience and four virtues, and they must not be jealous and jealous, otherwise the emperor will be unhappy.

It's no wonder that Concubine Shu is so angry, since she arrived in the palace, Concubine Shu has been unhappy when she looks at those ladies who are showing off their branches, how can she not know what those women are thinking about in the harem for so many years.

She has always asked the palace people around the emperor to guard against those noble girls, but she can't stand that the emperor is a man, and the emperor can't help it when he takes the initiative to summon those palace people who are waiting.

Although Concubine Shu is only in her twenties, compared with those noblewomen who are twenty-eight years old, she can't help but feel as if she is fleeting, and she is no longer attractive.

"Niangniang, you are really worried."

Cuihe's words are not flattery, Concubine Shu is indeed beautiful, and she has a charm that those noble ladies don't have.

In the past, when the queen was there, she was the sixth palace of the crown, and now it is the same.

Concubine Shu sighed, she is just a concubine in the end, no matter how noble her status is, she can't compare to the queen, but her body will take another year to recuperate.

After those young women inherit the favor and get the prince, the harem will no longer have its own place.

Concubine Shu thought that she might also sit on the throne after the queen died, but she soon recognized the reality that the emperor did not think that she could become the queen at all.

No matter how much the emperor pampers herself, she can only be a concubine.

The weakness of her mother's family is Concubine Shugui's biggest weakness, and it is also the reason why she can't become a queen.

People in the world need the support of their mother's family, and with the Yang family as a precedent, no relatives will dare to exercise power in the future.

It's just that I don't know what kind of woman the emperor plans to set up as the queen.

"Don't worry, depending on who he is, it is impossible to take away Niangniang's favor anyway."

"Really?"

Concubine Shu now has to check her makeup and clothes in the mirror several times a day, and she is not allowed to appear a little bad, only then will she feel at ease.

I don't know if it's because it's colder than the capital, Concubine Shu also feels that she has been cold these days, she smelled the medicinal fragrance in the air, and glanced at the boiling medicine stove.

The decoction in this is a tonic medicine prescribed by Lu Cancan to Concubine Shugui, and Concubine Shugui is worried that she will be secretly replaced like the previous queen, so she must personally watch the decoction of the medicine to rest assured.

She said to Cuihe to go get a few more pills.

"But Niangniang, today's medicine has been decocted."

"I can't wait that long."

Concubine Shu gritted her teeth and said that if she couldn't give birth to the prince first, then her situation would be difficult in the future, so she could only take risks and give it a try.

"Go and get the medicine as I tell me."

Lu Cancan said that this medicine is one pack a day, but Concubine Shu is now two packs a day.

Even if the medicine is violent and may hurt her body, she must let herself conceive the prince.

Although Cuihe felt that this was too risky, Concubine Shu had already made up her mind, and she couldn't influence Concubine Shu's thoughts as a little maid.

Zhu Guinu was the first of all the attendants to climb onto the emperor's dragon bed, but after serving, the emperor did not give her a title and rank.

It stands to reason that even if the palace maid is accompanied by the queen, the emperor will definitely give her a position, but Zhu Guinu is also a noble girl, and after being sent out of the emperor's bedroom, she did not wait for the holy decree.

She thought it was a little strange, but she didn't dare to ask more.

Lu Cancan sat on a chair leisurely with a fan and watched the scenery, and suddenly someone came to spread the word that she was invited by Concubine Shu.

"I don't know if Niangniang invited me alone, or if all the nobles have passed?"

A few gold leaves were stuffed into the hands of the summoned eunuch, and the eunuch immediately told everything he knew, saying that Concubine Shu saw that the chrysanthemums in her palace were blooming, so she invited all the nobles to take a look.

In this way, Concubine Shu is really interested.

The matter of Zhu Guinu's escort had spread throughout the palace last night, and I don't know how Shuguifei Niangniang was still in the mood to enjoy the flowers.

Originally, Lu Cancan wanted to find an excuse to push it away, after all, she was not interested in watching those women intrigue and say a word that might have three or four meanings, but she is now the county lord, if she refutes the face of the concubine, I am afraid that it will not be good, and some people will say that she is pampered and arrogant.

She casually found a dress to change into, and dressed up a little, even if Lu Cancan was not interested in rouge gouache, she couldn't be looked down upon.

A soft smoky gauze dress is paired with a lilac satin skirt inside, embroidered with pale pink flowers, which is beautiful and refined, neither too eye-catching nor shabby.

"Cancan is here."

Concubine Shu saw Lu Cancan's face full of smiles, and she didn't know how much this smile was true and fake.

None of the women who can climb to this position in the harem are simple, and Lu Cancan also smiled and asked Concubine Shu to say goodbye.

It's already autumn, but there are still flowers in front of you, aren't so many young and beautiful ladies more delicate than flowers?

It's just that it is not a good idea to dress up so flamboyantly in front of the emperor's women, Lu Cancan looked at it coldly, thinking that Concubine Shu Guifei is also a drunkard today and does not mean to drink.

Concubine Shu was drinking tea on the side, but in fact, her eyes kept looking at those noble girls.

"Hey, why hasn't Guinu Zhu arrived yet?"

"What do you know, people are now phoenixes flying on the branches, so naturally they don't take the concubine Niangniang in their eyes." A noble lady said sourly.

Concubine Shu didn't seem to care, just smiled slightly, and asked Cui He to serve refreshments, so that the nobles could walk freely in the palace and admire the chrysanthemums.

I have to say that the chrysanthemums in the palace of Concubine Shu are indeed very beautiful, there are many precious varieties, although Lu Cancan is not the kind of elegant person who has studied flowers, but he also feels pleasing to the eye.

Among them, the most precious is a green chrysanthemum, which is said to have been paid tribute from Persia, and there is only this one in the entire Dayan, which was rewarded by the emperor to the concubine.

The other nobles flattered and said that the emperor really favored Concubine Shu, but Concubine Shu smiled and didn't speak, showing a trace of shyness on her face, like a girl who had just fallen in love.
