Chapter Seventy-One: A Malicious Visit [1]
Mu Ling also strengthened his heart, and stopped thinking about leaving the palace for the time being, he had to investigate all these things in the palace first, and punish those people before leaving!
"Smoke, wait for me to freshen up!"
Smoke heard the sound and waited for Mu Ling to wash his face and change clothes.
……
Mu Ling was still eating breakfast, and there was a sound of laughter outside Muxiyuan.
According to the number of rites, Mu Ling has just recovered, and the gifts to celebrate Mu Ling's recovery in various palaces should have been delivered a long time ago.
But now, the gifts of the concubines and little masters of the palaces have not yet arrived.
Mu Ling estimated that he woke up this time and was promoted again, becoming one of the three concubines, I am afraid that they will take this opportunity to stammer with her, and by the way, find out which side Mu Ling is on.
Hearing the sound, Mu Ling stopped eating, and asked the servants to clean up the table, and he took the smoke and the chess to the front hall to greet the concubines.
Mu Ling just stepped out of the door, and even saw that the queen came with all the concubines, and Concubine De was also inside.
When Mu Ling saw Concubine De, a burst of anger surged in his heart, and his eyes unconsciously became cold.
Concubine De seemed to feel a cold gaze staring at her, and turned her head to meet Mu Ling's gaze.
At this time, Mu Ling's eyes were full of ancient wells and waves, with a bright smile.
Concubine De lowered her head, as if thinking about something, and Mu Ling didn't pay attention to it anymore.
"Concubines, see the queen mother!" Mu Ling bent down and performed a standard palace concubine ceremony.
The concubines behind Su Nianru are either of the same rank as Mu Ling, or they are lower in status than Mu Ling, of course, there is no need for Mu Ling to salute them.
"Get up! Lady! When you are recovering from a serious illness, where do you still use these false rituals? Su Nianru opened a standard smile, smiling without showing teeth, at a forty-five degree angle.
Su Nianru took two steps forward, stretched out her lotus-like arm, and helped Mu Ling up, holding the nobility of the mother in the world.
"The queen mother is kind-hearted and sympathetic to the concubines, but the concubines can't be ignorant of etiquette and mess up the discipline!" Mu Ling laughed coquettishly.
At this time, it has entered May, and a hundred flowers are blooming, purple and red, and competing for beauty.
The weather is warm, and the concubines have already changed out of their heavy clothes, taking out their noble and charming clothes, and rushing to wear them out.
And the queen, as the lord of the six palaces, has countless clothes, how can she not wear her beautiful clothes at this time.
In contrast, Mu Ling only has two or three palace clothes, and as for the summer clothes, there are no them.
The concubines wore heavy makeup and light makeup, and they were more delicate than flowers, but Mu Ling did not use rouge and gouache, and she was still a little pale when she recovered from a serious illness, and her face was still a little pale, and she was wearing plain clothes, so she was obviously compared to others.
Some of the low-ranking concubines looked at Mu Ling with a little more sarcasm, and removed Mu Ling from their choice.
In their opinion, Mu Ling is just a blessing in disguise and ascended to the concubine position with the power of her family, and her current identity is just a fluke, and the emperor has no sincerity towards her.
When Yan Yan saw it in his eyes, he was angry in his heart.
Mu Ling ignored it completely, this palace was originally a big dye vat of power, what is the rarity of seeing high and low?
However, Mu Ling also realized that he really should buy two clothes, and he had to say something to Liang Chu another day.
"Sister Shufei, after the palace and the sisters finished greeting the queen mother, they were taken by the queen mother to Muxiyuan! See how much the queen cares about you! Concubine De stepped forward, grabbed Mu Ling's hand, and said east and west, in fact, she was quietly provoking!
When she was in a coma, the queen didn't come to see her, but now she came to see her so actively, who knows what kind of heart Ann has!
Mu Ling's eyes moved slightly, pretending not to hear anything, but instead looked at Concubine De with a smile, cooperating with her pretended intimacy.
"The queen is in charge of the six palaces, and she naturally cares about the people of the six palaces. It is a blessing for you sisters to have such a queen! Mu Ling smiled and squeezed Concubine De's hand.
Concubine De was a little uncomfortable, but she covered it up well.
"Queen Mother, don't stand here and talk, hurry up and go into the house!"
Mu Ling led the way in front, followed by the concubines.
Yan Yan and Shiqin hurriedly served the tea, stood behind the concubines, and waited with all their hearts, lest any concubine be dissatisfied and leave criticism.
"Concubine Shu, this is the shark fin from the South China Sea brought to you by this palace, and what are the durians and lychees from the West called, which are just right for you to eat now, and replenish your body." Su Nianru sat upright and said.
Before Mu Ling could speak, Concubine Lan spoke, she covered her mouth with a handkerchief, looked surprised, and said, "What? Durian and lychee! ”
Concubine Lan took off her handkerchief and showed a look of envy.
"Lady Lady, the queen is so good to you! The durian and lychee were not available in this season, they were planted by secret methods, and they were quickly whipped and placed on a carriage filled with ice, and it took five days to reach the capital! ”
Concubine Lan didn't even breathe, and only stopped after she finished speaking.
As if she didn't think enough had been said, she added: "Six durians were delivered, and the queen mother only got two, and as for us, the concubines didn't have the blessing of seeing durians." Alas, it's still a good life for the lady! ”
Concubine Lan picked up the teacup and sipped the tea lightly.
The crowd talked about it, either saying how rare durian is, or envying Mu Ling's good luck.
Mu Ling smiled slightly, but his eyes turned cold, looking at it like this. This Lan Concubine is really not a fuel-efficient lamp.
These words not only praised Su Nianru's virtue, but also quietly patted Su Nianru's ass, but also secretly satirized Mu Ling's good luck, implying that Mu Ling was poisoned by someone and almost lost his life in exchange for these glory and wealth.
These words aroused everyone's disdain and disgust for Mu Ling.
Mu Ling coldly evoked a sneer, it was really a good calculation.
"Yo! Is this true? The Queen? ”
Mu Ling grabbed the handkerchief, his eyes widened, and he looked surprised.
Su Nianru was very satisfied with everyone's reactions, and there was a little more satisfaction in the gaze cast at Concubine Lan.
Su Nianru nodded secretly, and said with a coquettish smile: "How can what you say is so serious!" It's just two durians. Fuliu, you go, take the durian from the palace, and give it to the concubines today. ”
The willows responded, and the concubines praised the queen's generosity, in contrast, Mu Ling accepted the queen's durian and enjoyed it for herself, which made her seem much more angry.
"Miss Fuliu, you don't have to go. Queen Mother, since there are concubines here, let's enjoy them for everyone! Anyway, it's all the kindness of the queen mother, so why bother to run again! ”
