Chapter 22 The shadow of the silk yarn lamp, the sound of the jade pillow and hairpin is broken
I don't know if red is a popular color in the palace this year, although the emperor has always been lazy to review the flowers, but the women in the palace all like to wear red clothes, rushing to dominate the crowd.
Concubine Ning is dressed in a purple-red palace dress today, and the top and bottom are gold-embroidered acacia flowers, which are not dazzling. With her arrogant expression, it complements each other.
I walked to the mirror and saluted her respectfully: "Say hello to Concubine Ning, Concubine Ning Niangniang Jin'an." ”
"Excuse me, Lin Chang is in the limelight and asks me for peace, I can't afford it." Concubine Ning covered her face with her hands and sneered, this yin and yang weird appearance was really scathing.
It's just that it's not the first time I've seen her like this, so I smiled lightly without care: "What did Concubine Ning say?" You have been in the palace for nearly ten years, and you have been favored by the emperor, so you are naturally in the limelight. The concubine is always here, please give you peace, what can you not afford? ”
Naturally, I was not too polite when I said this, and when I said this, Concubine Ning's face naturally became colder: "My sister is really smart, but this palace is very worried, if I really accept my sister's gift today." My sister got excited and slapped Bengong in the face, what should I do when the time comes? ”
"When the time comes, Niangniang will naturally get a box of rejuvenated jade powder appreciated by the queen!" I hid my face and chuckled: "Concubine Ning used her face like jade powder, and her whole face was like a new life, wouldn't she return to her cardamom years?" ”
The emperor is now twenty-nine years old, and Concubine Ning is the woman who served him from the time of the emperor and the crown prince, and she is now twenty-seven years old. In the palace where women are like flowers, a twenty-seven-year-old woman is almost a withering age.
Sure enough, as soon as Concubine Ning heard my words and ridicule her for her age, she was immediately furious. A pair of bewitching Danfeng eyes and horizontal eyebrows were cold, as if they were about to breathe fire.
"It's worthy of Concubine Shu's niece, your mouth is as sharp as hers. It's just that even if you have Concubine Shu's support, you can't do whatever you want in this palace. ”
Concubine Ning slowly approached me and stood beside me, as close as her own sister. But the foot slowly lifted up, and stepped on my foot where the hem of our skirts met.
Her feet became harder and harder, and the smile on her face bloomed brighter, and outsiders seemed to think that we were whispering something considerate.
"There is still a long time in the palace, you and I will slowly calculate this account." Concubine Ning sneered and spit out this sentence.
But I didn't care about the sharp pain under my feet, and I shot back with the same smile at her: "What Niangniang said is very true. This sentence, the concubine also took it to heart. ”
When she saw me react like this, she knew that I would never show my timidity in front of everyone, and she suddenly felt bored. Then he withdrew his feet, turned around and walked violently towards the queen's palace.
And I had expected her reaction, pretending to follow the trend and rushing behind her, but in fact I stepped on the hem of her palace dress fiercely. She suddenly realized that we were both falling on top of each other with all the strength of each other.
"!"
"Little Lord!"
The palace maid behind Concubine Ning naturally didn't have time to react, but Qiushui and Bailu, who were standing behind me, had already seen what I meant, and watched the two of us get entangled together, until I had already knocked Concubine Ning down, and then came up to help me in a fake way.
I pressed Concubine Ning hard, and with her as a human flesh pad for me, I naturally had no trouble anywhere. It's just that Concubine Ning is miserable, not only is the whole person buckled on the cold stone ground, but there is also such a Taishan pressure on her body, and there is only air in and out.
I clutched my chest and screamed in pain, and slowly got up from her, and Concubine Ning's palace maid took care of pulling her out of the ground. It's just that Concubine Ning has been smashed to pieces, and as soon as she raised her head, a line of bright red nosebleeds flowed down even more.
"Oh, sis, you're hurt." I stepped forward and shook her hand, and I was moved: "I am not related to you, why do you bother to save me so hard?" Concubine Ning is really warm-hearted! ”
"I ...... You ......" Concubine Ning's slender jade hands struggled between you and me, and her whole person trembled with anger: "Lin Huaixing, are you looking for death?" ”
"Yo, what's going on?"
Without waiting for Concubine Ning to pounce on me and tear my mouth, my aunt walked over from behind her unhurriedly, and when she heard her aunt's voice, Concubine Ning's raised hand immediately put it down.
I suddenly remembered that on the day of the palace visit, when my aunt hadn't come yet, Concubine Ning was shouting and drinking in Kunning Palace, it turned out to be just a straw bag with a strong heart, and I couldn't help but sneer in my heart.
My aunt approached. didn't speak to Concubine Ning, who was full of embarrassment, but just glanced at me: "This is a cold and cold day, if you two have anything to say, you have to go to the queen's palace to say." What is standing here? Do you have anything else to hide from the queen? ”
My aunt's words were very unpleasant, but I heard a hint of amusement in them, and knowing that she was giving me the stairs, I immediately answered her voice and followed her into the queen's palace.
Seeing that the time has come, if Concubine Ning goes back to change her clothes at this time, it will not be good to delay and make a bigger incident, so she has to swallow her anger and follow the two of us into Kunning Palace.
Sure enough, she looked so embarrassed, and as soon as she entered Kunning Palace, she became the target of everyone. Although she told the queen in a strange way how I had overthrown her, the queen did not blame me. My aunt even added a few words next to her, but in the end, no one dared to respond to Concubine Ning.
It's just that Concubine Ning is a concubine, even if others want to laugh at her in their hearts, they don't dare to say too much in front of her, so everyone chatted about An Chang who went to bed last night.
Although I slapped An Changzai, I didn't pay much attention to what happened after that, and I still listened to this group of gossipy women, and I learned the ins and outs of last night.
Originally, I just went to bed yesterday, but I must come to the queen's palace today to say goodbye? Even if there were no such rules, An Changzai, who was arrogant and domineering, would definitely not be willing to let go of such an opportunity to show off, but she didn't come today.
It turned out that An Changzai offended the emperor last night somehow, and he was directly kicked out of the Tiyuan Hall in the middle of the night, and it is estimated that he has been crying in his palace under the quilt for most of the night.
"I heard that the emperor lifted the quilt yesterday, yo! Where did this come from, and where did the coal become refined? Immediately, Long Yan was furious, pointed at a few little eunuchs, and carried her out. ”
I listened to the concubines next to me talking about it together, and the tea I had just drunk in my mouth was almost amused by them. A straightforward woman like Jiang Guiren is also interesting.
If there is a loss of virtue, the emperor may not care. It's just that this is not pleasing to the emperor in terms of appearance, so doesn't this woman have to die in the palace? I sighed for her.
In this way, if An Changzai wants to turn over, I am afraid that it will only be possible until one day the thunder strikes the emperor and makes him change his temperament.
The queen didn't seem to want to listen to these sour words, and put the tea ball in her hand on the table: "You all love to say these sour words, and this palace doesn't allow you to talk about it like this." Begonia, you go and get the jar of marzipan from the palace in a while and send it to An Changzai, so that she doesn't think so much in the future, and she should come to invite An or come. ”
As soon as she heard the queen's words, the laughter between the concubines who couldn't hold back their laughter came and went. The queen said that they were chasing after the wind, and at the same time confirmed their guess with a jar of whitening marzipan, which was so dense that it should be a good match.
I looked at the queen, but a chill ran through my heart. This Wang Xuerou, no wonder her aunt has been favored for so many years, but her position as queen is still so stable, there are indeed some means.
I was bored pulling the tea bowl in front of me, and my aunt was already impatient with these gossips, so she stood up and said, "Sisters, let's talk first, I'm really tired, so I'll go back to the palace." ”
My aunt started this, and the rest naturally dispersed. I was still standing in the middle, and as I tried to leave, the queen simply stopped me.
"Lin Chang is here, you can't go."
