Volume 1 The Wind and Snow Enter the Purple Terrace Chapter 134 Zeng Cairen
Zuo Zhaoyi Qu is not favored by Ji Shen, but he is not bad in the palace, and he holds the palace power, so it can be said that in addition to not living in Guilu Palace, there is no difference from the middle palace.
Although the Qu family was able to live their lives to this point in the palace, it was not entirely due to the protection of the Empress Dowager Gao, but more because of her family, but the Empress Dowager Gao really couldn't say bad about her.
In this case, it is really strange that Qu has to visit Fan in person.
Mu Biwei sent away the robe, thought for a moment, but thought of something, and said to Ah Shan: "Earlier, I heard that Fan Shinu and Si Yunu were very detained by Nei Si Ke after they fell out of favor, and Fang Cai also mentioned that Fan Shinu was sick and did not ask the people around her to find the imperial doctor, just because he didn't want to see the face of the Tai Hospital. ”
"The internal division is headed by Ruan Wenyi, and it is said that Feng is nominally supervised, and the slaves and maids see Ruan Wenyi doing things normally, but they are not dissatisfied with Zuo Zhaoyi." Ah Shan thought for a moment.
"At this time and that time, not to mention that after Jiang Shunhua had a body, there was news that Sun Guifei was also pregnant, I thought that Zuo Zhaoyi was afraid that she was taking precautions!" Mu Bi pondered slightly and said, "Zuo Zhaoyi has only been in the palace for more than two years, and Concubine Sun Guifei is from a humble background, but there is a big advantage, that is, there are more acquaintances in the palace, you don't see an ordinary palace person, and it is faster than us to inquire about the news in this palace?" That's the benefit of the advanced palace. ”
Ah Shan nodded: "The inner division and the Tai Hospital are both in the style of red and white, according to the situation in the palace, most of them are biased towards Sun Guifei." ”
"Since you can step on those concubines who have fallen out of favor, it is hard to guarantee that there may be such foolish people, who listened to the promise and instigation of Sun Guifei's side, and even wanted to sell it themselves, so they had something to think about Pingle Palace." Mu Biwei lightly tapped on the few cases in front of her, "In this way, Zuo Zhaoyi is very concerned about Jiang Shunhua's birth. ”
Ah Shan pondered for a moment and said, "The slave thinks that Zuo Zhaoyi chose this time to care about Fan Shiwei, although she has considered Jiang Shunhua's safe production, but I'm afraid there is still a thought!" ”
Mu Biwei looked at her and asked, "What is it?" ”
"The power of the internal division ......"
"Not necessarily, right?" Mu Biwei frowned slightly when she heard her, "Ruan Wenyi is in charge of the inner division, this person is left by Emperor Gaozu, I see that he usually does things in favor of the queen mother, so His Majesty doesn't like him too much, but I have also touched His Majesty's temperament these days, although I don't like him very much, but I won't take away his power because of this." ”
Ji Shen is probably because he was raised by his grandfather's side since he was a child, and after Emperor Gaozu went, he was the crown prince who was trained too harshly, after the collapse of Ruizong, Empress Dowager Gao was a woman in the end, and she couldn't suppress this young son who didn't grow up by her side since she was a child, Ji Shen ran the road of good and bad work, as long as he didn't delay his various enjoyment and fun, he was not very interested in other things.
For example, in order to make Sun the queen, Ji Shen did not hesitate to turn his face with the Empress Dowager Gao, but later when the Empress Dowager Gao issued an edict to order Zuo Zhaoyi to take the power of the six palaces, Ji Shen did not think so-in his opinion, it was best for the Empress Dowager Gao to ask the Qu family to take over the palace affairs, so that the Sun family was idle and happened to accompany him.
As for the Qu clan - although Ji Shen didn't like her appearance, the Qu clan didn't take the initiative to come to him to compete for favor, and took care of the palace affairs in an orderly manner, Ji Shen felt that there was nothing wrong with having such a Zuo Zhaoyi.
Similarly, Ruan Wenyi was angry with Ji Shen because of her anger towards Empress Dowager Gao, but the inner division has always flattered Ji Shen's favorite concubine, and there is no one who has lost favor again, so Ji Shen is too lazy to do much.
- Therefore, if nothing else, Zuo Zhaoyi's palace power is very stable, but it may not be so easy to take the power of the inner division as well.
Don't say that Ruan Wenyi is biased towards the Empress Dowager Gao, the Empress Dowager Gao has to protect him, just say that Ruan Wenyi and Feng Jian are down, and there is a Fang Xianren, who is a close attendant of Ganquan Palace!
Ah Shan said: "The Queen Mother is now protecting Zuo Zhaoyi everywhere, and that is also because Zuo Zhaoyi is not favored, we can think of this truth, how can Zuo Zhaoyi not think of it?" It's just that Zuo Zhaoyi is from a background and has the support of the Qu family, why do you want the Queen Mother to be a chess piece? The slave maid thought, Zuo Zhaoyi has not done anything in the past two years since she entered the palace, one is that the palace power has not been consolidated, and the other is that there is no suitable opportunity, now that Sun Guifei has a body, the queen mother will not slap Hua Luodian's face at this time anyway, and she will endure some of Zuo Zhaoyi's mistakes. ”
Mu Bi shook her head slightly: "Empress Dowager Gao is healthy, Zuo Zhaoyi is still young, she doesn't have to be in such a hurry, the power of the inner division moves, and the Empress Dowager Gao's control and eyes and ears of the harem will be sharply reduced, originally the Empress Dowager She hated Sun Guifei, because His Majesty confronted the Queen Mother for Sun Guifei, which is equivalent to slapping the Queen Mother's face, if Zuo Zhaoyi seeks the power of the Inner Division at this time, what is the difference between it and Sun's approach back then?" The Qu family is not as good as our Mu family, just one girl, of course, Zuo Zhaoyi is the most honorable one, but the Queen Mother wants to promote other girls in the Qu family, and they are all the blood of the Qu family! Besides, it is really unwise for her to offend the queen mother who has always been biased towards her. ”
Ah Shan groaned: "But the slave always feels that it is a little strange that Zuo Zhaoyi cares so much about the Fan family. ”
"It's weird." Mu Bi tilted her head slightly and thought for a while, then suddenly clapped her hands and said, "In that case, why don't we go and take a look when Zuo Zhaoyi is not there?" The left and right Changxin Palace is not far from Jique. ”
"Go see?" Ah Shan was stunned for a moment, and then said, "The girl has some skills - it's just that the palace is heavily guarded......"
"Strict vigilance is all after the palace gate is locked at night, and there are not many guards during the day, so as not to collide with the nobles in the palace." Mu Bi said slightly, "Last time, the Ouyang clan dared to bully me, didn't I just run to Deyang Palace and take her things out?" It's just that those two items were asked by Nie Yuansheng, and I don't know when he will use them. ”
Seeing that Ah Shan still had a suspicious look on his face, Mu Biwei said again, "What's more, Changxin Palace doesn't have a lord, not to mention, the two women and a maid who live in the palace have all fallen out of favor, and the inner secretary and the Tai Hospital are not careful, so can't the guards be careful?" ”
"That's true." Ah Shan thought for a moment and nodded, and then said, "It's just that Your Majesty's side can't be left out in the cold!" ”
Mu Bi rolled her eyes slightly, and said, "Then you go alone!" Ask about the path! ”
Ah Shan didn't quite agree, and when he heard that he went to Changxin Palace alone, he nodded quickly: "That's good, if you are accidentally discovered, the slave and maid also have something to say." ”
"Actually, even if I go with you to be seen, it may not be anything." Mu Bi said slightly, "If Zuo Zhaoyi really just visited with kindness, wouldn't I be allowed to move my compassion?" I'm afraid that Fan Shinu has something that shouldn't be heard by others, and it's troublesome, so if you can, don't alarm people, if someone finds out...... Let's just say, I took you to Gyeongbokgung Palace, and you didn't have long after you entered the palace. ”
Ah Shan smiled unconsciously: "The girl always remembers to drag He Ronghua into the water!" ”
"This is nature, if it weren't for her start, what would I do to enter the palace and struggle?" Mu Bi sneered and said, "Since she has done the first year of junior high school, don't blame me for being the fifteenth!" ”
Ah Shan said: "After a while, when the girl goes to the Xuanshu Palace, she will have to pull her coat or dress and follow, and the slave and maid will go to Changxin Palace to take a turn, well, no, it is to go to Gyeongbokgung Palace to find He Ronghua and say something - for example, the marriage of the two families?" ”
The two laughed for a while, calculated the time, Mu Biwei got up and changed her dress, tightened her sideburns with the grate again, took a self-portrait in the mirror, and saw it correctly, so she took the coat and went to the Xuan room.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Ji Shen knew that Mu Biwei was going to Hualuo Hall today, he had never been a person who was willing to be alone, so Mu Biwei entered the Dongnuan Pavilion and was not surprised to see a strange beautiful woman in his arms, and saluted with a smile, Ji Shen waved his hand, Mu Biwei glanced at the woman, and saw that the other party raised his chin slightly and was quite arrogant, although he leaned on Ji Shen's arms, but his demeanor was still a little dignified, but he deliberately did not look at himself, as if he was quite disdainful, she smiled and deliberately asked Ji Shen: "Your Majesty, this noble slave maid's eyes are tight- ”
"You just entered the palace, the middle palace is vacant, and the queen mother likes to be pure, so I don't know you." Ji Shen smiled and told her, "This is the Zeng talent of Jiafu Palace." ”
This Zeng is only twenty-nine years old, her skin is smooth and the chin is slightly pointed, slender willow eyebrows, a high nose bridge, a pair of black and white cut pupils, a small mouth is bright red like blood, and a sandalwood swirl collared shirt reveals a slender neck like flawless jade.
In fact, beauties, talents, and lovers are all scattered, not even concubines. But compared to the female officer, she is always in a serious position.
Mu Bi slightly pressed her chest slightly sore, and was about to salute Zeng Cairen, but she heard Zeng Cairen say lightly: "I heard that Mu Qingyi is His Majesty's close attendant, how dare the concubine be a gift for Tsing Yi?" ”
"Slave and maid thank you for the grace of the talented people!" As soon as she heard her say this, Mu Biwei stopped saluting without saying a word, and didn't forget to smile at Ji Shen and said, "The slave maid has never seen Zeng Cairen before, but look at the talented people are so polite to the female officials around Your Majesty, it can be seen how much Pingsu admires and respects Your Majesty!" ”
Zeng Cairen didn't want her to be so polite, so he was stunned and forgot to answer.
Taking advantage of this situation, Mu Biwei had already leaned to the other side of Ji Shen, swept the long case in front of him, and saw that there were a few plates of wine and food, although there was a earth dragon under the warm pavilion, it was also cold at this time, so he said angrily: "Your Majesty, is this lunch used until now?" Why don't you ask someone to change your table when the wine is cold? ”
Although Ji Shen has shown a mediocre look, he was not so confused as to tell Mu Biwei truthfully that he only cared about messing around with Zeng Cairen, and only ate a few bites of lunch hastily, and at this moment listened to Mu Biwei's words and said: "Wei Niang came just right, and I also felt that the dishes were cold, so I made another one in the imperial dining room." ”
Mu Biwei listened, then pursed her lips and smiled: "Your Majesty, isn't it specifically waiting for the slaves and maids to serve?" Slave and maid, go now! ”
Ji Shen was doting on her, and when she heard this, she felt happy, and said with a smile: "You have a lot of trouble, and you have spent so many hours in the Hualuo Palace, so I will punish you for not being allowed to sit down to eat with me today, only watching." ”
"Serving His Majesty is the duty of the slave and the slave, and it is also the glory of the slave, and the slave and the slave don't think this is a punishment." Mu Biwei threw a wink at him, and then walked out, about to tell the little waiter outside to tell the imperial dining room.
I didn't want that Zeng Cairen to listen to her flirting with Ji Shen as if no one was around, her face sank, and she suddenly said, "Your Majesty! ”
Ji Shen summoned this Zeng family on a whim because Mu Biwei was not here today, and he was also a little worried about her, so he asked, "What?" ”
"The concubine heard that Mu Qingyi brought a special winter pastry into the palace, and got the name of His Majesty, this will Mu Qingyi happen to be here, I don't know if I can give the concubine a taste?" Zeng Cairen raised his chin and looked at Mu Biwei, who had only walked a few steps not far away, and said proudly.
"Then punish Wei Niang and make some for you by the way." Ji Shen said indifferently.
Mu Biwei stood still, and when she turned around, she was already smiling: "Talent wants to eat Yunxia cake?" Now that Your Majesty is approved, what can the slave and maid say? Coincidentally, the talented man said this quickly, there is a drawer in the Wind Lotus Courtyard that was made by the slave maid yesterday after spending a long time working hard, and now it is no different from the new drawer......
In other words, the drawer of Yunxia cake was overnight, and if you opened your mouth slowly, I was afraid that it would be poured out, but now it happened to be given to you!
