Chapter 20: Taunt
Just thinking about it, Yu Yao didn't expect that the first person to trouble her was this Concubine Xi, who had some eyes above the top.
"I heard that a new sister who entered the palace yesterday slept with the emperor, which newcomer is it!" As soon as he sat down, Niu Colu seemed to be unable to see the only stranger in the main hall, Yu Yao, and fiddled with his nail covers intently, and asked lightly.
"It's a concubine." Yu Yao, whose face was pale, clenched the handkerchief tightly in her hand, lowered her head and took a small step forward, and replied.
Concubine Xi looked at Yu Yao up and down slowly, wearing heavy makeup to cover her face, and she looked quite timid.
At first, Yu Yao felt that the other party's gaze was disgusted, but gradually, she felt that the gaze became condescending and disdainful.
"You're the Guerga clan! Tsk, I thought it was another Nian, hehe! ”
The mocking tone could be heard by Yu Yao.
She pursed her lips, still lowered her head, and replied: "Concubine, where is the concubine, where, where can she be compared with the concubine of Emperor Dunsu, Concubine Xi is in love." ”
Concubine Xi sneered, "You are self-aware!" ”
When he opened his mouth to continue to say something, the voice of the eunuch came: "The queen mother has arrived!" ”
Concubine Xi frowned, and the expression on her face was quite unwilling. She slowly half got up, and her ass was still slightly touched to greet the arriving queen.
Yu Yao had heard Bi He talk about Concubine Xi's attitude towards the queen, and she also deliberately glanced at Concubine Xi secretly, no, Concubine Xi's perfunctory and unwilling attitude happened to be looked at by Yu Yao.
"Tsk, isn't this Concubine Xi a little too inflated! And. This half-sitting up and half-sitting might as well be more comfortable to stand up directly! I had a bad impression of Concubine Xi in my heart, but then I sighed in my heart: "Who let this lucky man have a grown up and favored prince." ”
Therefore, she still can't have a conflict with this Concubine Xi, after all, she will be the queen mother in the future.
Even if she is targeted, she has to endure it, and she has to give the other party a feeling that she is not threatened, and it is best to be able to take refuge in this one.
Of course, even if you want to take refuge in Concubine Xi, you can't offend the queen.
For Concubine Xi, she can't help the queen, but for herself, a newcomer to the palace and no foundation, she offended the queen, but the game is over.
I still think about being a concubine in the future, dreaming!
Yu Yao, who had already planned not to offend the queen, waited for the queen to sit down, and respectfully followed the harem concubines to greet the queen.
"Concubines see the queen mother, the queen mother Jin An!"
"Excuse me!" The graceful queen said with a gentle attitude.
With such a simple comparison, Yu Yao felt that this queen felt much better than that of Concubine Xi Niu Colu.
Queen Wulanala didn't know what Yu Yao was muttering in her heart at the moment, she glanced at Yu Yao inadvertently, and then put her eyes on Concubine Qi.
"Sister Li's illness is better?"
Concubine Qi Li said with a sad face: "Queen Xie is concerned, and the concubine's health has improved, so while the new sister is giving you a hello, I will also come to see Niangniang and say hello to Niangniang." ”
"Poof!"
"What are you laughing at?" The queen Wulanala looked at Concubine Xi calmly and asked lightly.
Concubine Xi didn't look at the queen who asked the question, she still played with her nail covers, and mocked: "Sister Li is still in the mood to come to Kunning Palace to join in the fun, hehe, if this palace is your sister, I'm afraid you will be ashamed." ”
Even if Concubine Xi didn't say a word about the third elder brother Hongshi in her words, everyone present could hear the meaning of her words.
After all, the third elder brother was rejected by the emperor and was passed out. That was the eldest of the emperor's three existing princes, but it turned out to be so.
Concubine Qi Li and the third elder brother Hongshi have become a joke in the harem of the former dynasty.
Concubine Qi's face turned white, and her body shook a little.
Her lips trembled, and according to her original temperament, she would definitely go back first.
However, no, her Hongshi has been rejected by the emperor, and she is old and decrepit, not favored by the emperor, and has no ability to intercede with the emperor.
In order for Hongshi to live better, the only people in this palace who can help her are the queen and Concubine Xi, as well as the fourth elder brother Hongli.
Therefore, for the sake of Hongshi, even if she suffers more grievances from Concubine Xi, she has to endure it.
Even if Concubine Xi refuses to help intercede, she can't provoke the other party to hate her even more, so that her Hongshi will be even more disadvantaged.
Therefore, Li was stunned for a long time, and he didn't say a word.
It's all for the kids!
It can't help but remind the queen of the deceased child Honghui, and the queen can't help but feel a little sad when she sees this.
When Li was young, although she was jealous of her favor and jealous that she gave birth to three sons and one daughter one after another, in fact, there was no life-and-death conflict between them.
The death of the eldest brother Honghui has nothing to do with the Li family.
And the deaths of several of Li's children have nothing to do with her.
It's just some conflicts between women, and now that I think about it, none of them have been taken to heart by the emperor, so it's a little funny to think about jealousy or something.
Moreover, what happened to the Li family now made her sympathetic, and the queen immediately changed the topic.
"Okay, the main purpose of today is to greet the newcomers, don't talk about anything else." As she spoke, the queen looked at Yu Yao, "Sister, you are the new nobleman Guerjia clan, right?" ”
Yu Yao lowered her head, stepped forward, and curtsied, "The concubine is the Guerjia clan." ”
"No courtesy, I hope my sister will serve the emperor well in the future and spread the branches for the royal family."
When Yu Yao heard the queen's words, her heart jumped, and she had an ominous premonition.
However, she still continued to play the role of cowardice, lowered her head and whispered: "The concubine listens to the mother, and she must serve the emperor well." ”
As for the second half of the sentence, inexplicably, Yuyao felt that it was better for her not to answer this.
However, she still felt the gaze from the direction of Concubine Xi's Niu Colu clan, and she felt a little chilled.
Branches?!
Niu Co Lu broke a nail cover, the emperor doesn't know how long he can live, if he lives as long as the first emperor, then the advantage of Hongli's longevity is gone, after all, the newborn elder brother has also grown up, and he can compete with Hongli, just like the fourteenth elder brother of the first emperor and the current emperor.
Therefore, the emperor already has three sons, so there is no need to spread the branches!
The first queen, no, should be close to the Niu Co Lu clan, such as Concubine Qi, Yu Concubine, etc., also noticed that something was wrong with the Niu Co Lu clan.
Empress Wulanala squinted her eyes and looked at Niu Co Lu and Yu Yao thoughtfully.
Even though Niu Co Lu's is a little inflated, his brain is still there.
Therefore, when she noticed that her actions exposed her attitude, her face changed, and she made a hard excuse to cover up the reason why she broke her nail covers.
"When I heard Sister Guerjia say that she must take good care of the emperor, but she didn't answer to help the emperor spread the leaves, she remembered the rumors this morning, and was a little surprised that the rumors turned out to be true.
Hehe! Whoever believes this is stupid!
Even if everyone didn't believe Concubine Xi's words, no one came to refute her.
What's more, in order to appease Concubine Xi, some concubines rushed to help Concubine Xi taunt Yuyao.
"Yo, Sister Xi also heard about it, and the concubine also heard about it, the emperor asked Sister Guerjia to play the kite for him last night, and he fell asleep."
"It's true! Without the emperor's favor, how can you spread the branches for the emperor. No wonder Guerjia's sister is so self-aware and did not respond to the queen's request to open up the leaves for the emperor. ”
Yu Yao's head drooped lower and lower, as if she was very sad to be struck, and she was very faceless when she was ridiculed.
"Tsk, sister Guerjia, your powder is so thick, it's not that you didn't sleep last night, you were worried all night, and your face was not good."
"Hehe, sister Guerjia, don't think too much, this day is still long, you wait patiently, one day the emperor will pamper you."
