Chapter 178: Concubine Yi

Yi has the meaning of assisting, and Concubine Yi lives in Yikun Palace, which symbolizes her identity and assists the queen in managing the harem.

Yikun Palace is located in the southwest of the Imperial Palace, very close to the Emperor's Palace, bypassing the Imperial Garden and passing through two corridors.

At this time, it is late March, but a distance from Yimen to the main hall, but it is full of chrysanthemums of all colors, I heard that Yi Guifei loves chrysanthemums very much, Emperor Jianyuan let the flower room cultivate chrysanthemums that can bloom in four seasons, for Yi Guifei to enjoy.

"Please wait here for a while, and the slave will go in and report. The long-faced aunt blessed Ying Che and Jiao Niang, and turned around and entered the hall.

When Jiao Niang saw that the people in the courtyard were respectful to her, she knew that she had gained face in front of Concubine Yi.

There is a plane tree in front of the window, I don't know how old it is, but I see that its branches and leaves are luxuriant, tall and tall, higher than the roof, I know that it is some years.

Its foliage stretched out, creating a large shadow on the ground, like a giant eagle spreading its wings.

The two stood in the courtyard and waited, the figures of the two overlapped with the shadow of the plane tree, and a maid took out the quilt to dry on one side, and slapped it vigorously with a feather duster.

Listening to the sound of the duster waving and making a "squeeze", the picture of herself being pressed on the bench and being beaten on the board appeared in Jiao Niang's mind.

She was so frightened that she asked Ying Che timidly: "Your Highness, will Concubine Yi punish me?"

Ying Che looked at her timid appearance, and couldn't help but feel funny, he chuckled and whispered, "Now I know that I'm afraid, but you were determined to follow this king at that time." ”

Jiao Niang bit her lip and said aggrievedly: "That's not that Jiao Niang wants to be by His Royal Highness's side, His Royal Highness is not considerate of Jiao Niang's heart at all." ”

At this time, the aunt who went in to report came out and said politely: "Niangniang is invited." ”

Ying Che said "um", then took Jiao Niang's hand and whispered to her: "Okay, go in, this king promises you, no matter how Concubine Yi punishes you and scolds you, this king will definitely protect you." ”

Jiao Niang smiled lightly, and held his hand back, Yingche's palm was very large, which could completely wrap her hand, and she could vaguely feel the lines of his palm, which was really reassuring.

As soon as I entered the temple, I listened to the sound of laughter coming from inside, and it was very pleasant.

Jiao Niang couldn't help but look at Ying Che, but he didn't squint, and took Jiao Niang directly into the side hall.

Inside the house, Concubine Yi Guifei pulled two people to talk left and right, and she was happy, and when she saw Yingche coming in, she stopped.

"The third brother is here. ”

Jiao Niang raised her head slightly, and looked at the man who got up next to Yi Guifei, wearing a sea blue bat clothes, wearing a white hosta, Feng Shen handsome, Zhilan Yushu, Jiao Niang saw that his face was somewhat similar to Yi Guifei, and she had already guessed that it was Rong Wang Yingao.

Speaking of which, Ying Che doesn't look much like Yi Guifei.

On the other side of Concubine Yi is Princess Rong, the daughter of the Ministry of Shangshu, Fang Ruyu, she is not very beautiful, but she is very delicate, with a pair of wonderful eyes, bright eyes, she is the kind of woman who reads poetry and books at first glance, and she is very temperamental.

Ying Che said lightly, the four of them greeted each other, and then greeted Concubine Yi with Jiao Niang, "Mother Wan'an." ”

Concubine Yi smiled gently, "It's here." "Tell the aunt who brought them in before, "Xiyue, move two piers over." ”

Ying Che and the two sat down, Yi Guifei asked Ying Che about his injury with concern, Ying Che only said that it was okay, but Yi Guifei was not at ease, and told Xi Yue to get some supplements and send them over.

Her face showed a little annoyance, "You have suffered such a big grievance this time, you must not just let it go, you must have your father make the decision for you." ”

Tears flowed out as he spoke, and he said while wiping his tears: "They are too bullying, they still have the same blood, how can they do it." ”

Concubine Yi is a gentle woman, so even being angry is gentle.

It's just that her words directly pointed at the prince.

Ying Che bowed her head and was silent, and King Rong persuaded her, "Don't be angry, my father has always favored the third brother, and he will return justice to him." He glanced at Ying Che, paused, and said, "It's just that this time, the eldest brother is really too ruthless." ”

As soon as the words fell, Ying Che raised his head and looked at him, "This matter has not been found out yet, and it is not necessarily the prince's doing." ”

Concubine Yi was stunned, "It's not the crown prince, who could it be? Who has such a big holiday with you." ”

Ying Che looked at her and said, "I don't know, but anyone can do it, the prince, or those officials who are afraid of finding out, or some people who want to provoke me and the prince." His eyes quickly glanced at King Rong's face and turned back.

King Rong bowed his head, made a gesture of thought, and said, "Well, it's possible. He stroked Yi Guifei's shoulder and comforted her: "The mother concubine doesn't have to be sad anymore, fortunately, the third brother is safe and sound, and when he returns to the capital, under your nose, nothing will happen, you can rest assured." ”

Concubine Yi wiped away her tears and said to him: "How can I rest assured, your third brother has long been a thorn in the side of others, he is in the way of others, and others want his life." ”

She leaned forward, her hand pressed against Ying Che's hand and held it, "My son, you have to be more restrained, it's not a good thing to show your edge." The mother concubine has been in the palace for so many years, lying dormant under the queen, and she does not dare to take away her edge, so that she can live in peace. ”

She sighed faintly, Xiyue brought tea, she took a sip slightly, "Now I see that you are more in the limelight than the prince, and the queen is not as gentle as before, and now it is more and more difficult to get along with her." ”

She gave the teacup to Princess Rong, who took it and placed it on the table beside her. Concubine Yi wiped the corners of her mouth, "You too, unless the crown prince is not the crown prince, can you have a better time when he ascends the throne one day?"

With a vague smile on the corner of his mouth, he withdrew his hand quietly, then looked directly at Concubine Yi, and said, "The concubine means to let the sons withdraw from the court, or replace the crown prince." ”

Jiao Niang was drinking tea, listening to his straightforward speech, she almost didn't squirt.

She quietly tugged on Ying Che's sleeve, and Ying Che glanced at her lightly.

Concubine Yi was stunned for a while, slowed down, and said: "How do you say this, of course the mother concubine doesn't mean this, she is just worried about you." ”

Ying Che let out a meaningful "oh" and stopped talking.

The room was quiet for a while, and it was a little embarrassing.

It was still Princess Rong who saw Jiao Niang sitting there a little restrained, and broke the silence first, "I have heard people talk about how the third brother's new little flower concubine looks like the moon, and I always want to see it, I didn't see it during the New Year, and I have always regretted it, but today I can be regarded as seeing it." ”

She spoke in a soft, intimate voice.

Jiao Niang smiled at her and said, "Princess Rong made fun of it, but Princess Rong's famous Jiao Niang was like thunder, and she wanted to see the style." ”

Before Fang Qiyu came out of the pavilion, she had the title of the first talented woman in the capital, which was comparable to Qi Aojun.
