Chapter 44: Concubine Xian, a Hypocritical Face
"Concubine, thank you for your mother's memory." The Yang family almost wanted to be grateful, and repeatedly thanked Concubine Huo Xian.
When the Yang family married into the Jingbei Hou Mansion, Concubine Huo Xian had already entered the palace, so the Yang family and this sister-in-law were not very familiar, but when she was a new wife, she also entered the palace to ask Concubine Huo Xian a few times. Since the Zhou family entered the door, the Yang family has completely fallen out of favor, and has never entered the palace again, and it has been almost fifteen years since he saw Concubine Huo Xian.
The sister-in-law who hadn't seen her for fifteen years said that she had always remembered her, so could Yang's heart be warm?
"Sister-in-law, don't be polite, it's all a family, don't care about being polite, sit down and talk." Concubine Huo Xian hurriedly waved her hand at the Yang family and motioned for her to sit down.
The Yang family smiled gently at Concubine Huo Xian and said, "Niangniang is generous. ”
But Huo Sijin sneered in his heart: Concubine Huo Xian is a person with a generous temperament?
On the surface, it seems to be, but inside it is a different face. If there is a mother, there must be a son, Chu Li and Concubine Huo Xian are clearly the same kind of people, the same hypocrisy, and the same unscrupulousness.
"Sitting next to you, but the nephew of the main palace, Changjin?" Concubine Huo Xian's gaze fell on Huo Sijin.
When Huo Sijin heard this, he got up and bowed, "It's Changjin, Huo Changjin asks for peace to his mother." ”
"Good boy, don't be polite, sit down and talk." Concubine Huo Xian hurriedly stretched out her hand, gave her a hand, and then turned her head and said to Yang with a smile, "Sister-in-law, Jin'er is just like you, and she is polite to this palace." ”
Concubine Huo Xian's words seem to be an understatement, but in fact, there is another deep meaning, Yang's father used to be the prince and the prince, and he attaches the most importance to the courtesy of the monarch and the minister, which is very appropriate, without flattery, but it makes people listen to it very comfortably.
"Niangniang said that the etiquette cannot be abolished, especially Niangniang, you are Your Majesty's concubine, there is a difference between monarchs and ministers, how dare Changjin and his mother be rude." Huo Sijin took over.
Zhou's face was slightly stiff, Huo Sijin only said her and her mother Yang, and did not mention her in half a word, which clearly implied that she Zhou Qimei did not know the number of etiquette.
Today in front of Huo Sijin, the Zhou family suffered a lot of losses, and he had long been holding back the anger in his heart, but now he was provoked by Huo Sijin's words, and the Zhou family didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly asked Concubine Huo Xian: "Niangniang, the concubine looks a little bad at Niangniang's face, but what happened?" ”
The words have been spoken, but the Zhou family is speechless, Concubine Huo Xian specially emphasized that letting the Yang family and Huo Sijin come must have a purpose, she should wait and see what happens, and first figure out the purpose of Concubine Huo Xian before speaking.
Concubine Huo Xian and Yang's mother and son talked, she interjected at this time, wouldn't it be bad for Concubine Xian's affairs?
Zhou regretted it in her heart, she was dizzy today, and she blurted out as soon as Huo Sijin took the words.
Regret is regret, the water spilled by the words cannot be recovered, and the Zhou family has to go down, "The concubine is brave, but someone is embarrassed by the mother?" ”
Concubine Huo Xian's face was pale and tired, she needed help to walk, and her legs were motionless when she sat on a chair, obviously she must have knelt too much.
Concubine Huo Xian's position in the palace is not low, and there are not many people who can make her kneel, Zhou's question is indeed bold. But this is in Chuxiu Palace, Concubine Huo Xian's bedroom, surrounded by Concubine Xian's people, although this question is bold, but it is what his own family said to his own family.
The Yang family also looked at Concubine Huo Xian, she was also very concerned about this issue, so decent, who would embarrass Concubine Huo Xian?
Concubine Huo Xian's lips opened slightly, but she quickly closed them again, and she stopped talking, and finally just turned into a sigh, "You can't help this palace......"
Zhou hurriedly took over, "Niangniang, if you don't say it, how do you know that the concubine can't help?" Although the concubine body is useless, I don't know if you have an idea for the mother? Besides, don't forget, Niangniang, you still have your mother's family, and the Jingbei Hou Mansion will never sit idly by. ”
Yang just wanted to speak, but suddenly the corner of her clothes was tugged, she looked back, and saw Huo Sijin shaking his head at her slightly, signaling her not to speak.
Yang was puzzled, but Huo Sijin pulled the corner of her clothes tightly, her attitude was very resolute, Yang was weak and had never been assertive, Huo Sijin insisted so much, she gave up.
Under the relief of the Zhou family, Concubine Huo Xian talked about Fang Cai quietly, "It's the queen's ......"
In the past few days, Queen Yao has tossed Concubine Huo Xian a lot. She couldn't move Chu Li for the time being, so she took Concubine Huo Xian out of anger.
Even if Concubine Huo Xian wanted to complain to the emperor, she couldn't do it, because what Empress Yao was looking for was a legitimate reason. In addition, Concubine Huo Xian was not favored among the concubines, and the emperor did not care about her, so she could only let Empress Yao stumble. After a few days, the whole person lost a lot of weight.
In the past few days, Empress Yao's side has begun to gradually subside, and Concubine Huo Xian sent someone to invite her mother's family over. Who would have thought that she sent palace people to invite the family members of the Marquis of Jingbei to enter the palace, and Empress Yao immediately got the news and immediately called Concubine Huo Xian to Changqiu Palace.
As soon as Concubine Huo Xian entered the door of Changqiu Palace, she was scolded by Queen Yao, and found an excuse to say that Concubine Huo Xian's errand was not done well, and punished her to kneel in the Buddha Hall.
That's what Concubine Huo Xian looks like......
Hearing this, Yang frowned, "How could the queen mother be ...... Niangniang, did you offend the queen somewhere? ”
Concubine Huo Xian smiled bitterly, "Where is this palace offending the queen, it's not because of the hunting ground." ”
Regarding the hunting ground, the Yang family only knew that the prince was attacked, and Huo Sijin saved the prince, and she didn't know anything about the rest. At the moment I wondered, "What about the hunting grounds?" What does this have to do with Niangniang? ”
Unlike the Yang family, the Zhou family understood the truth of the matter in a blink of an eye, and hurriedly knelt down to Concubine Huo Xian to ask for the guilt, "Niangniang, it was all Rou'er's willfulness for a while, if it weren't for her playfulness and pulling Changjin to the hunting grounds, it would not have happened later, and the three princes and Niangniang who were harmed would have been implicated." ”
"Sister-in-law, hurry up." Concubine Huo Xian immediately glanced at the palace people, and the palace people hurriedly helped Zhou up.
Concubine Huo Xian sighed and said: "Don't blame Rou'er, in fact, the queen has long looked at the palace unpleasantly, who called the palace behind the Jingbei Hou Mansion, and Li Er is the eldest among the princes." ”
Yang was confused, and was about to ask, but Concubine Huo Xian's voice came from her ears, "Sister-in-law, after you go back, you must tell Master Hou, don't stand up for this palace, the queen is just knocking and knocking on this palace, there is nothing wrong with this palace, and she can't do anything about this palace." ”
After speaking, Concubine Huo Xian emphasized again, "Sister-in-law must tell my brother that you must not stand up for this palace." ”
Although the Yang family was full of doubts in her heart and didn't know what was going on, since Concubine Huo Xian said so, she immediately agreed, "Rest assured, the concubine will definitely tell the Hou Ye." ”
Seeing that the Yang family nodded in response, Concubine Huo Xian smiled and looked at Huo Sijin again, "Changjin, this palace heard that you are now the long history of the East Palace?" ”
Huo Sijin's eyes were slightly dark, and after several turns, Concubine Huo Xian was finally about to get to the point......
"Yes, Your Majesty ordered Changjin to be the chief of the East Palace."
Concubine Huo Xian nodded with satisfaction, "Although the official position of the East Palace Changshi is not high, and he is not an official in the court, he can follow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and he has a bright future, and he will have the opportunity to make contributions in the future." ”
"Changjin, thank you for your teachings." Huo Sijin replied decently.
I only heard Concubine Huo Xian say again: "It's just that the palace has offended the queen right now, if Changjin meets the people of the Fifth Prince and the Cheng'en Mansion, you must be careful, if you have difficulties, go to Li'er, he will help you settle it." ”
The corners of Huo Sijin's lips raised slightly, and said so much, this is what Concubine Huo Xian really wanted to say.
If you have difficulties, go to Chu Li? She is the chief of the East Palace, and she is the person of the crown prince Chu Zheng, shouldn't she look for Chu Zheng?
"You are cousins, so you should support each other." At the end, Concubine Huo Xian said meaningfully.
Huo Sijin bowed respectfully to Concubine Huo Xian, and said in his mouth: "Thank you Niangniang, Niangniang Jinkou Yuyan, if Changjin encounters difficulties in the future, he can only disturb the three princes." ”
Don't worry, she will definitely bother Chu Li well!
In her previous life, Chu Li and Chu Heng competed with each other, if it weren't for her efforts and racking her brains to plan for Chu Li, how could he have destroyed all of Chu Heng's veins in just a few years?
The debts of the previous life are repaid in this life, and the things she gave Chu Li in the past must be spit out.
When Concubine Huo Xian heard Huo Sijin say this, she secretly thought that Huo Sijin had agreed, and her heart was overjoyed, and her face naturally showed a satisfied smile, and she exchanged a few words of greeting with the Yang family and others, and then she said that she was tired and asked the palace people to send them away.
Before Huo Zhirou came back, the Zhou family said that she would wait for Huo Zhirou to leave together, so Concubine Huo Xian ordered the palace people to send Yang and Huo Sijin away first.
However, Yang and Huo Sijin were stopped within two steps of walking out of the palace gate of Chuxiu Palace.
"Mrs. Jingbei Hou, Lord Huo, the queen is invited."
