Chapter 295
On the sixth day of the first month of June, it is the hottest time of summer, the sky is full of dark clouds, a cup of tea, the drizzly weather will drive the heat apart, the cool rain, standing under the eaves, I feel comfortable, faintly revealing a coolness.
Located in the palace in Yanjing, the guests gathered, the ministers with the ladies of the ranks, calmly walked on the palace road, and the people held up huge umbrellas to protect the officials and their wives, but the shoes and socks could not be taken care of.
Today, the little emperor is going to hold a grand banquet, and all the people who can be invited are all Yanjing's leading figures, so no one dares to shirk or neglect it, even if the sky is not beautiful, they still come on time.
Concubine Hui stood under the eaves, watching the drizzle, the eldest princess playing naughtily in the palace, and the palace maids all bowed their heads to do things, "It would be good if Concubine Qi was still alive, Concubine Qi is really not easy to get along with." ”
The palace maid hurriedly came from outside the hall: "Niangniang, Concubine Qi Niangniang has secretly left the palace last night, I heard that she is going to eat fasting and chanting Buddha but she is dead." ”
"Didn't the emperor order him to be executed?" Concubine Hui's face changed greatly, if Concubine Qi completed this matter, it can be seen that in the emperor's heart, her weight will be immeasurable.
"Niangniang, the news is indeed reliable, or Gonggong Li personally went to do it, as for why the emperor changed his original intention, the slave maid did not dare to speculate."
"Where's Concubine Min?"
"I went to Cishou Palace early in the morning, and I heard that the Empress Dowager was full of praise for the beef bone soup made by Concubine Min, and she should have followed the Empress Dowager to the banquet at this time."
"When the slave and maid came back, Concubine Qi and Concubine Yin were talking and laughing, and went to Princess Muqing's bedroom, and Princess Muqing and Princess Jin should have been invited to the banquet together."
Concubine Hui was so angry that she threw the hosta in her hand on the ground and smashed it, Concubine Min was really a grass on the wall, seeing that she was useless, she went to the queen mother, and she was worried that she would block her, so she didn't even say a word, so she quietly did it.
Even Concubine Qi and Concubine Yin have been handed, so the next step, she should be dealt with in this palace, what should she do? The strength is weak, and the mother's family is unreliable, so it is naturally powerless.
She set her eyes on Princess Celestia and focused on something.
Concubine Qi and Concubine Yin walked out of the corridor, it was a very delicate small garden, through the stone path in the courtyard, turning two tea shelves, and another secluded path, you could hear the laughter endlessly.
On the autumn swing in the courtyard, Mu Qingdang is happy, Qing'er is under the tree on the side, tea is boiling on the stone table, and the chessboard in front of her looks like a fantasy in the rising mist.
Concubine Yin's memory was suddenly pulled back to her girlhood, at the age of twelve or thirteen, it was the scene when the regent made tea and played chess, the man was lofty, raising his hands and feet, all of them were gentle and elegant, and a spring heart was sprouting, she fell in love with the regent without regrets, and was even willing to risk her life and enter the palace to become his eyeliner.
The years are like a gap, it has been five years in a blink of an eye, and the time is in a hurry, which makes her almost forget something, pursing her lips and smiling, Qi Concubine held her hand, slightly warm, "But thinking of the past, in fact, to this point, we can only look forward, no matter what happens in the future, the emperor is the man we rely on, and we can't have other thoughts in this life." ”
Concubine Qi's words that seemed to be talking to herself were not reminding her that she should know how to think about herself, her life, fortune and misfortune, and now she is tied to the man in this deep palace, so she naturally has to be cautious and not be sloppy.
Concubine Yin suddenly liked Concubine Qi, most of the women in the harem are fighting, even if the surface is calm and sisterly affection is deep, in fact, they are all hypocritical, and they are racking their brains for their own interests.
Like Concubine Qi's words just now, she obviously saw something, and beat her, but she didn't want the emperor to see the clues, and then she had a gap with her, and lost her sacred heart, and she was in dire straits in this palace, and her life was extremely difficult.
Concubine Yin shook Concubine Qi's little hand back, "Then hurry up." ”
The four women greeted each other, and Qing'er was quite playful: "I heard that Concubine Yin is calm and Concubine Qi has an excellent temperament, when I see it today, it is because you are modest, and your temperament is really good." ”
Before everyone sat down, the little palace maid came nervously to tell her, saying that the eldest princess suddenly had a high fever and did not go away, and Concubine Hui was very bad, but she didn't dare to sweep the emperor's interest, so she begged Concubine Yin here.
Concubine Qi scoffed at Concubine Hui's tricks, especially using the child's body as a weight, which was even more hateful: "Since I know that it will sweep away the emperor's interest, Concubine Hui still chooses such a time to block the emperor, not to mention that the eldest princess is a royal bloodline, but she is also pregnant in October by Concubine Hui, and she is her own." ”
The little palace maid trembled, but she didn't dare to say anything, Concubine Yin patted the back of Concubine Qi's hand, "Then let the imperial doctor go over and take a look, let's go over and take a look." ”180
Concubine Yin is Uncle Jinghuang's person, and when she entered and exited the palace of Nansheng Kingdom, she used to do her best for Qing'er and them, she took Mu Qing's arm, "I know a little about medical skills, it's better to be together." ”
The princess of Jin in Mexico has good medical skills, and the world knows that if she can treat the eldest princess, it would be great.
The four of them walked together, and the little palace maid took the first step to tell Concubine Hui's words, if it was on weekdays, she should rest and calm down, but Concubine Qi's position is under her, even if she is favored by the emperor, she can't be so presumptuous, she just wants to give Concubine Yin a problem in today's stall, to see how she can balance the main position of the two palaces.
Concubine Hui's palace was slightly farther away, entering the palace gate, the imperial doctor was already taking the pulse, Qing'er walked all the way, smelled a familiar smell, she carefully identified, the smell in the hall was not very strong, she looked along the propped up window, just the fourth window at the entrance, which was also the closest place to the eldest princess's bed, and there were some boiled leaves under the root of the window.
Qing'er stepped forward to lift the curtain and watched the princess's complexion, as well as the wet trouser legs before she could be replaced.
The imperial doctor saluted to Concubine Yin and the others, "The eldest princess is a heat certificate, the princess is weak, and the mother has a heat certificate in her womb, and sometimes she has seizures, but it is a common thing, minister, prescribe some medicinal herbs, and drink it after boiling." ”
Concubine Hui cried and sat at the feet of Concubine Yin and the others, and she was really childish, "What are you doing?" Princess Celestia is still sick, aren't you adding to her blockage? ”
Concubine Yin's cold tone, with a bit of majesty, formed a diametrically contrasting with Concubine Qi's soft words when she spoke.
"You want to be the master of your sister, how can Concubine Qi be honest, saying that I deliberately want to harm the eldest princess, this is my bitter work, the flesh and blood of the pregnancy and birth in October, how can I not hurt, now many things in the palace are asked by Concubine Yin, this matter, if you can't give me justice, I will go to the emperor with my head and blood, and I want to ask for an explanation."
The sun had already jumped up on the roof, shining on the body quite warmly, and the sky was blue, with a few clouds floating.
Concubine Qi did not flinch, thinking of what happened to Concubine Qi, her situation was so embarrassing that she couldn't get rid of this hateful woman, her anger seemed to be ignited, and she couldn't tear her to pieces.
"Concubine Hui, if you are really well-informed, it will not take you more than a moment to understand what I said so thoroughly. Or is it that Concubine Hui has already installed a lot of eyeliner in this harem, and maybe even the emperor's every move is under your surveillance. ”
A few words shocked Concubine Hui into a cold sweat, if the emperor protected Concubine Qi and asked people to check, she would definitely have to take off a layer of skin.
But if this great opportunity is missed, when will she be able to suppress Concubine Qi's arrogance, she wants to gamble, Concubine Yin's maintenance of Concubine Qi and her intolerance to the eldest princess may make Concubine Qi give in.
Qing'er looked through the window, the faint warm sun swept across the roof, and the sky in the distance was a pure blue, like paint dripping from water, spreading out layer by layer, turning into a thin transparent blue overhead.
should bear the miserable little white face of the eldest princess on the bed, it is so eye-catching, and I can't get used to this kind of woman who is most favored by those children in my life.
"Concubine Yin, it's better to go to the emperor and say it, Nansheng Country is governed by the rule of law, if outsiders know, the emperor can't even clear the harem, how can he rule the country."
Qing'er looked at Concubine Hui with unwavering eyes, which made her feel creepy, the emperor was controlling the government, the regent had not yet fully handed over power, and the princess of Jin in Mexico was the daughter of the regent, so it was reasonable, the emperor would not let the scandal break out at this moment, and she suddenly had confidence.
Mu Qing saw the stupidity, when did Qing'er make such a fuss, but she just couldn't see their intrigue, but she wanted to involve Concubine Yin.
The little emperor was talking to the regent in the imperial study, and Aunt Ling was on the high bookshelf, looking through the ancient books, and she didn't pay attention to their conversation.
The Empress Dowager - When she came in, she met Aunt Ling's gaze unexpectedly. The old man has a pair of raised Danfeng eyes, and his eyebrows are long into the sideburns. When I was young, this appearance should have been charming and moving, but when I am old this year, my eyes have lost the hope and affection of the year, like a fox when I am dark, and like a knife when I am sharp, but I can no longer touch with beauty.
The regent didn't get up, he didn't even call Aunt Ling, he was still reading intently, for such a ruthless woman who could kill herself, she couldn't arouse the slightest respect in her heart, and some were just fleeting pity.
Her husband's suspicion made her have to send her son away, and when her son reaches adulthood, she has to threaten in various names, so as to achieve her goal, such a mother, how can she get her son's approval, she is destined to be miserable in this life, high up, but she can't really pay each other, and a woman, even if she reaches the peak of power, will one day be hit by her opponent and die sadly.
The Empress Dowager focused her scrutinizing eyes on Aunt Ling, who was the woman she was planning to get rid of back then, the regent's sweetheart.
