Chapter 467: Temptation
There is a faint soothing incense in the air, probably because the temper is greater than that of all the concubines combined, and the soothing incense here is always a little thicker than that of other harem concubines.
The room will always have a few luxurious places that are difficult to hide in the classical elegance.
Through the red-hot curtain, the queen looked around the boudoir, which she had long been tired of seeing. Diagonally opposite the bed is a dressing table with tortoiseshell shells inlaid with a whole circle, which is very gorgeous. There is another enamel vase on the stage, which is gorgeous and dazzling.
All this is showing His Majesty's favor, but it's a pity that His Majesty's mind is no longer on her now.
"Send someone from the palace to inquire when Concubine Shu will return to the palace." The queen sat in front of the dresser and inserted the jadeite jasper chan into her bun diagonally in front of the bronze mirror.
Even if she dresses up carefully, she doesn't know who to show her makeup, so when she thinks about it, the queen's face sank a little more, and no amount of powder can hide the faint sadness between her eyebrows.
"...... There is already news that Concubine Shu and the emperor have set off. ”
The maid replied respectfully. The queen was immediately overjoyed, and said with her lips open: "Oh? Is it. ”
The queen listened in a light tone, but in fact, the joy had already been shown in her eyes and could not be hidden. As a woman in the world, the queen's appearance is not bad, but the heart blackened by power makes it easy for people to ignore her own beauty, and only notice the greedy demeanor
In the eyes of the maid beside the queen, the queen's eyes seemed to have fallen into the stars, shining brightly.
"If you go back to Niangniang, the kung fu emperor and the concubine will be able to come back in about two or three days." The maid said.
"I'm finally going back." The queen muttered, and in her heart she was bound to recruit the chess piece of Concubine Shu.
The queen, who originally asked her subordinates all day long to inquire when the concubine would return to the palace, also stopped, dressed up and drank tea every day, and finally waited for the two to return to the palace after a few days.
Almost as soon as Feng Beiying landed in front of him, he was sent by the queen to invite him to his palace.
It was difficult for the queen to refuse the queen's order to seal Beiying, and she had no intention of refusing.
Feng Beiying changed his clothes, washed away the wind and dust of the recent rush, and followed the queen's people into the palace. Today's palace is a little less pyrotechnic, and a lot more solemn, as if to show that there is something waiting for Fengbeiying ahead, which makes the queen's huge palace vaguely look like a tiger's den in Longtan.
It's a pity that no matter how the queen wants to build momentum, Feng Beiying will not be afraid.
Feng Beiying deliberately chose Bixia Luo, who was embroidered with a large peony with silver thread, a green flower skirt, and a thin smoky green veil of the same color. Holding the low-hanging sideburns, a jasper hairpin inlaid with white pearls from the South China Sea is obliquely inserted, and she is like a hibiscus out of the water.
This is not the first time Feng Beiying has pretended to be delicate and delicate, but this time she is delicate and deliberate.
Before Feng Beiying came, the queen sat in the hall surrounded by a group of maids, although she deliberately put on a serious and stereotypical appearance, it was still difficult to hide the anxiety in her eyes.
If it weren't for the restraint of manners, the queen would have to hold back and personally go to Feng Beiying to take a good look.
When Feng Beiying appeared, Shi Shiran saluted and really amazed the queen.
is such a beautiful woman, delicate and gentle as a little white flower that people can't help but care, no wonder His Majesty is so concerned.
"The queen's mother is auspicious ......" Fengbei Shadow Road.
"No need to be polite." The queen pretended to be casual and raised her hand, which had painted her cardamom nails, and said, "Come and sit here." ”
Feng Beiying covered his lips and coughed lightly twice, "Xie Niangniang......"
The queen changed her previous elegance, and in order to demonstrate, she obviously deliberately dressed up today.
He wore a lot of redundant gold ornaments, neatly and methodically inserted into his dark and thick hair, and three or four beads collided lightly with each light movement.
Dressed in a vermilion wide-sleeved liuxian skirt, covered with fine-grained yarn, there are two pairs of jade bracelets on the snow-white wrists exposed by raising the hand to serve tea.
Feng Beiying sat down silently, not forgetting to take a look.
The queen is luxurious, and if she were an ordinary woman from a small family, she would have been ashamed and envious and would not be able to raise her head.
Feng Beiying took a sip of tea slightly, and then listened to the queen's mouth.
"What does Concubine Shu think of the tea here in the palace?"
"Nature is excellent." Feng Beiying held the porcelain cup and replied.
The queen casually handed the cup to the maid beside her and said, "Then do you know what the emperor likes to drink the most?"
Feng Beiying shook his head without thinking about it: "I don't know about the concubine."
"Guess."
The queen ordered. Feng Beiying had no choice but to hang his head and ponder as if he was distressed, and only said in a half-loud voice: "Longjing?"
The queen shook her head but didn't say anything, so Feng Beiying had to think of other answers, and she was stuck for a long time before she said, "Oolong?"
After saying that, Feng Beiying looked at the queen cautiously, only to see that the latter shook his head again, and said leisurely, "Your Majesty's favorite thing is still my Junshan Silver Needle here." ”
"Yes. Niangniang must be the person who is most close to the emperor's heart, how can she guess with the dullness of the concubine's body? Feng Beiying said ashamedly.
The queen is naturally happy, and this concubine looks at the person who is not strong and a little weak, and she doesn't seem to have any opinions.
Originally, I was afraid that this concubine would not eat a hard stubble, but I didn't expect it to be a weak and sickly soft persimmon, so it can be seen that it is still easy to handle.
Thinking of this, the queen was somewhat relieved. No matter how she fell out of favor, she still sat in the queen's seat, and the person in front of her was just a small concubine.
"How can you little girls in this palace please Your Majesty's favor, I'm afraid that the emperor will no longer like Junshan Silver Needle now......"
The queen said this deliberately, took the teacup presented by the maidservant's hands, got up and walked to the pine and cypress potted plants on the wooden shelf, and turned her wrist.
"Why did the mother say this?" Feng Beiying watched the queen pour out the tea and said in panic.
Feng Beiying got up, didn't dare to sit down, and said: "Niangniang and the emperor's husband and wife have been married for decades, where is the envy of others?"
"Sister doesn't have to think about it." The queen interrupted her, "The words of this palace are just literal, how can there be any other miscellaneous things?" ”
Feng Beiying understood what the queen meant after a little thought, but he still had to make a gesture and said: "Niangniang, forgive the concubine for being stupid......"
The queen had to put down the cup, took Feng Beiying's hand and hinted a few more words, and Feng Beiying made a sudden realization.
At this time, Feng Beiying understood that the queen had gone from demonstration to temptation, and finally to today's solicitation. The queen is strong by nature, but Feng Beiying is showing weakness today.
Feng Beiying was dressed in emerald green, and she was deliberately hinting to the queen that she had redeemed the green leaves that she had come to be a foil, so that the queen could let down her guard.
"Whoever bullies you will tell Hongu." The queen said proudly, "You will be a member of this palace in the future." What you have to do is to keep the emperor's heart firmly, and when I get what I want, I will definitely give you a lifetime of glory. ”
