Chapter 135: Noble Girl
The holy car did not arrive as scheduled as Zhou Mulin predicted, and Duan Yulin finally couldn't help but go to Luo Yiyi's Lihua Palace.
Luo Yiyi was very shy when she first accepted her kindness, and her infinitely pitiful appearance made Duan Yulin seem to see Li Jingxi's attitude when she first entered the palace, and she couldn't help but be happy. After Duan Yulin returned to the palace, he sent someone to reward her with a lot of things, especially a blue feather inlaid gold fan, which was the most special, and he also rewarded Li Jingxi with a similar fan.
According to the rules, the concubines after accepting the favor will go to Fengwu Palace to greet the queen the next day, and Luo Yiyi is no exception. In order to show respect for the queen, Luo Yiyi deliberately chose expensive and luxurious clothes - a golden silk epiphany rain silk wide-sleeved folded fairy dress made her beautiful and dusty; The weeping mustache is inlaid with beads and gilt butterfly blue chrysanthemum on the bun, bright and dazzling, one side is inserted with cloud sideburns and flowers and golden steps, and the other side is decorated with gold silk crystal daisies to cover the temples, and the end is gentle and stunning and weak to support the wind.
Luo Yiyi deliberately arrived a little early, and came to the main hall together after serving the phoenix dance hairpin, and the other concubines also arrived. After everyone saluted and sat down, they usually had to chat with the queen about a few family things, and the recent topic was undoubtedly inseparable from the favored rookies.
"The humble nobleman's dress is really gorgeous today, presumably the emperor has rewarded a lot of things, right? What an envy! Luo Zixiao shook her fan and complimented.
"Back to Concubine Ke's words, the fan in the concubine's hand, the step shake on her head, and the sideburns are all the emperor's intentions, and the concubine will not dare to live up to it." Luo Yiyi replied humbly.
"My sister is used to laughing, and although Sister Qian's things are good, they are not to the point of envy of my sister. Who doesn't know that the emperor treats his sister specially, and even the promotion and rewards are different from others! The emperor loves the eighth prince again, and he always has to go to his sister to sit down, which time didn't he bring rare things to your mother and son? If you want to say envy, we also envy our sister! Jiang Lianhuan and Luo Zixiao joked, Zixiao feigned anger and slapped Lianhuan with an embroidered fan, but there was joy and pride in her eyes that could not be concealed.
What Lian Zhaoyi said was extremely true. Among the young children, the eighth prince is the most favored by the emperor at the moment, and the emperor goes to see him the most, which makes Yingping in the palace eat his younger brother's vinegar! Xu Ying said in a joking tone, but Luo Zixiao understood that she was not joking, and Zixiao even seemed to see resentment in Xu Ying's eyes. I don't know if she's too sensitive, but in short, this feeling is very bad.
Of course, anyone who knows Xu Ying can feel a little taste, she must regard Luo Zixiao and the Eighth Prince as a thorn in her side. Especially after Luo Zixiao was promoted to Concubine Ke, Xu Ying became more and more eager to get rid of her mother and son.
"The imperial concubine has won the award." Zixiao stopped talking stupidly.
Feng Wu seemed to be able to foresee Xu Ying's slowly opening claws, and she couldn't help but feel a little excited in her heart. O human ambition! It's such a cute and scary thing. Feng Wu glanced at Li Jingxi, who had no "fighting spirit", and led the topic to her: "Speaking of the dress of a humble person, this palace feels that this daisy covers her sideburns very well!" Bengong vaguely remembers that in the early years, the emperor also appreciated a pair of concubines, which seemed to be purple beads and lotus flowers? ā
"Mother has a good memory, this is true." Li Jingxi didn't expect the topic to suddenly turn to her side, and she felt that she should admit it.
"Bengong remembers that you like that pair of sideburns very much, why haven't you worn them later?" Feng Wu continued to ask.
"The concubine cherishes the things rewarded by the emperor, and has ordered people to collect them." Li Jingxi couldn't tell the queen that she had lost one of them.
"The emperor rewarded his sister naturally because he hoped that his sister would wear it all the time, wouldn't it be a disappointment to the emperor's good intentions?" Concubine De was quick to speak, and she didn't think much before she said what was in her heart.
"What the queen and Concubine De taught is that the concubines understand." Although she knew that Concubine De had no bad intentions, Li Jingxi was still a little annoyed that she was helping indiscriminately at this moment.
"Look closer. Not only jewelry, but also their fans are very similar! It seems that they are all tributes woven by Jiangnan......" Xu Ying glanced at Luo Yiyi meaningfully.
"Really! The emperor values the concubine the most, no wonder the emperor loves the humble person so much now, the humble person can be a little like the concubine is really a blessing! Liu Youmeng blurted out, and the intellectuals behind her shook their heads helplessly. What this means means that Luo Yiyi's favor is all based on her appearance and resemblance to Li Jingxi, and she is simply Li Jingxi's stand-in! This is not humiliating for Luo Yiyi, if Luo Yiyi is the kind of woman who is jealous, I am afraid that she will already hate Li Jingyi at this time.
Luo Yiyi didn't say anything, she cautiously glanced up at Li Jingxi. Her beautiful face has not changed in any way because of the passage of time, and it is still breathtakingly beautiful. Luo Yiyi knew that she was not as good as a graceful woman at all, and the ridiculous three-point similarity was no match for the seven-point difference after all, and Luo Yiyi, who recognized this, felt a faint pain in her heart.
"Li Guiren can say whatever you want, Sister Qian, you go to your heart." Luo Zixiao comforted her gently, but the more she persuaded her not to take it to heart, the more uncomfortable Luo Yiyi's heart became.
"Isn't there a new little lord living in the palace of the noble people? Which show girl is it? Feng Wu shrewdly diverted the topic again.
"Back to the queen's mother, the noble Sakura is the daughter of the family of the Household Shangshu, and her status is very noble." Liu Youmeng didn't tell the queen that this cherry nobleman was arrogant and extremely difficult to get along with, and every time he met her, Liu Youmeng always had the illusion that "Fang Yushan is back".
However, Wang Zhiying does have proud capital. Her father's official residence is from a good grade, which is the same as Jiang Lianhuan, but she is better than her descendants, and even in appearance, she is better than Fang Huanshan and Jiang Lianhuan. If Li Jingxi's status as "the first beauty of Dahan" is unshakable, it is not an exaggeration for Wang Zhiying to call her second place.
"Really? That's really a prominent background, and no one in the palace can beat it. Feng Wu said playfully. If such an identity can give birth to a boy and a girl, the future future can be described as infinite.
"It's a pity that the daughter of the Deng family missed the election due to illness, or there will be one more sister in the harem this year." Concubine De remembered the rumors she had heard. It is said that the daughter of Deng Qingyuan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, is beautiful and unparalleled, but she has been raised in the deep boudoir and no one can see her. I thought that I would be lucky enough to see the real face of this draft, but God made a joke with everyone again.
"It's a pity...... Feng Wu was also very interested in Deng Zhenxuan, but she was really not angry. After that, everyone talked about something, but Feng Wu didn't listen, just nodded and answered vaguely from time to time.
Feng Wu looked at these women with different minds sitting below, but she wanted to pretend to be harmonious, as if she was watching a wonderful game. Such an "entertainment show" is staged in the harem every day, and Feng Wu occasionally participates, and more often she is still willing to watch it quietly like this. It wasn't until a piece of chess that it exceeded her expectations or didn't suit her appetite that she was willing to "make a move" to "straighten it out".
On the way back to the palace, Luo Yiyi ran into the noble queen Shibakura, who everyone was talking about. Although it was not the first time they met, Luo Yiyi was still amazed by Wang Zhiying who was dressed up.
Wang Zhiying was born in a tall family, and all the clothes she wore were the best. Not to mention the high degree of craftsmanship of a set of lapel butterfly sleeve cherry blossom pattern Shu brocade smoke embroidery skirt on her body, the material of this skirt alone is worth a lot of money. Shibazakura's beauty is already glamorous, and with the atmospheric Tianluan bun, it shows its nobility and pride; In the middle of the bun, a pink crystal curtain is in full bloom, and there is a peony silk flower on each side, which is dignified and playful.
Wang Zhiying walked close to Luo Yiyi, and the aura of the two of them was immediately superior.
"You're Royyi?" Wang Zhiying almost looked at Luo Yiyi with a condescending attitude.
"It's me. Sakura nobleman ......" Luo Yiyi was interrupted by Wang Zhiying as soon as she opened her mouth.
"I heard that because you look a little like a concubine, you are very popular with the emperor? But in my opinion, you are no match for Concubine Shu...... You're not even as good as me! Wang Zhiying was aggressive, and a shallow tear mole under her right eyelid came alive with the change of her expression.
"I ......" Luo Yiyi held her heart, and Bang Xin stepped forward to help, just about to beg Shibakura not to persecute the little master, but was pulled aside by Shibakura's maid Acacia and firmly grasped. Acacia's hand is so strong, and Bang Xin can't break free no matter what. Luo Yiyi was frightened by her actions, and hurriedly begged Shibazakura to let Bang Xin go.
"Don't worry, I won't treat her like that. I just don't want anyone to disturb us. Shibazakura paused, and said with a wicked smile: "They all said that the emperor would turn over your brand tonight, what do you think?" ā
"IāI don't know." Luo Yiyi was so frightened that her feet went limp, and she sat on the edge of the flower bed by the roadside.
"I really don't see what's so good about a soft-footed shrimp like you? It's just a stand-in for others, and I'm still complacent, it's ridiculous! Shibazakura stood, Luo Yiyi sitting, and from Shibazakura's point of view, Luo Yiyi was even weaker and more deceitful.
"I didn't! I don't think it's an honor to be like a concubine, and I don't want to be favored because of this! Luo Yiyi's tears welled up in her eyes, and she lowered her head and carefully wiped them with a handkerchief. Such a wistful appearance made Wang Zhiying squint her phoenix eyes in disgust.
"Don't pretend to be pitiful, who will show it? I don't have sympathy for you! Shibazakura lifted Luo Yiyi's chin and made her look directly at herself, "Hate?" When the emperor pampered you, he was thinking of another woman, heartache, right? Hate her, right? ā
"You, you let go of me, you pinched me!" Luo Yiyi pushed Wang Zhiying to restrain her hand.
Wang Zhiying shook off Luo Yiyi's chin and said in a deep voice: "You will never be able to compare to her, and I, too, will trample you under my feet!" Hate me! Hate me with all your anger! I'd like to see if a woman who shares the same husband with me is qualified to compete with me! Do you have the strength to defeat me! The madness in Wang Zhiying's eyes flashed to show what an ambitious and aggressive woman she was!
"Are you crazy? You lunatic! Luo Yiyi trembled and scolded.
Wang Zhiying smiled disdainfully: "Yes, I'm crazy." She pointed at Luo Yiyi, who was trembling, and said sadly: "It will definitely be me who sleeps tonight, do you believe it?" You don't deserve everything you enjoy right now, and the weak don't deserve to survive in the harem. I'm going to take everything from you! Hehehehehe......" After saying that, he screamed wildly.
Luo Yiyi was completely intimidated by Wang Zhiying, her heart couldn't bear it for a while, and she fainted in front of her. When she woke up, it was already the middle of the moon, and Wang Zhiying at this time was tired and fell asleep in the emperor's arms after accepting the favor.
