Chapter 4: The Six Palaces of the Crown
Who is Concubine Chen?
Gu Feiyan was stunned for a moment, and then quickly reacted, did Ming Xuanze mention her position? !
In fact, as early as yesterday, when she had not accepted the favor, Gu Feiyan guessed that Ming Xuanze was likely to raise her position, but she never expected that this promotion would directly raise herself to the position of concubine, and even gave this "Chen" as a title!
The memories of this place and the little historical knowledge she knew told her that the word "Chen" was extremely noble, and it was a word that even the queen could not use! Ming Xuanze gave her such a great favor, is it a blessing or a curse?
No matter how uneasy she was in her heart, Gu Fei's face was still calm, she raised her hand to exempt Gonggong Li from their courtesy, and waited for Gonggong Li to order the little eunuchs to put down the treasures and rewards that belonged to the concubines, and then asked Zhu'er to stuff a handful of broken silver for everyone, and specially added a jade pendant to Gonggong Li, before he smiled and spoke:
"Father-in-law Li, the emperor ......"
"The emperor is still in the court, he specially ordered the servant to tell Niangniang, you don't have to go back to the palace, just have breakfast here, the emperor will come to see you in the morning!"
Hearing Gonggong Li say this, Gu Feiyan couldn't help frowning slightly:
"But this palace is the first time to accept the favor, and I should go over early this morning to ask the queen mother and the concubine for peace."
Hearing her say this, Gonggong Li laughed even more happily: "Niangniang, the emperor said, you are unwell today, you don't need to ask for peace, you only need to ask the queen mother for peace in the future, and the concubine is on an equal footing, and the emperor also ordered the servant to tell you that he likes the arrogant appearance of the mother!" ”
After saying this, Gonggong Li left obediently, Gu Feiyan couldn't sit still, and thought carefully while looking at those valuable rewards.
Staying overnight in Tianlong Palace for breakfast, no need to say goodbye, and giving these obviously unruly precious rewards, what does Ming Xuanze want to do?
Although Ye Xinlan, the concubine without a title, to a certain extent, can be regarded as an equal in front of herself, the concubine, and she is still in confinement, and it is nothing if she doesn't go down, but if you don't ask her for peace, can she be so presumptuous in front of the Queen Mother? !
recalled what Gonggong Li said just now, Ming Xuanze said that he liked her arrogant appearance......
It turned out that Ming Xuanze wanted her to cooperate with the drama and help him attract the attention of the Ye family in the harem, so that he could free up his hands to do other things!
Gu Feiyan finally understood, it seemed that Ming Xuanze really agreed to her proposal and decided to let the Gu family be his arm!
This joy brought her a really good feeling, plus the breakfast was all delicious, if it weren't for the identity of this "Concubine Chen", Gu Feiyan would have laughed a long time ago!
It's a pity that some people don't want her to be happy all the time, and just halfway through breakfast, the little eunuch outside came in and told her:
"Niangniang, the ladies in the harem said they were coming to greet you."
Yo, she just received the seal, and these people can't hold their breath? Gu Feiyan smiled coldly:
"Let them in."
Ming Xuanze is cold and arrogant by nature, and he will never let others into his dormitory easily, as the only person who is favored in the dormitory and can have breakfast in Tianlong Palace, Gu Feiyan is naturally the nail that makes everyone's eyes red.
However, the best thing women in the harem are at hiding their emotions, and she is no exception, even if she knows that the concubines who knelt down to her and saluted her have already scolded themselves to death in their hearts, they still squeezed out a gentle smile:
"Sisters, please get up."
Ming Xuanze has only been on the throne for more than a year, and he is originally an emperor who is diligent and loves the people, and he spends the most on government affairs every day, so there are only four or five concubines in the harem.
"I was supposed to let a few younger sisters sit together and dine with the palace, but everyone knows the emperor's temper, and he definitely doesn't like to let others sit at the royal table, so I have to avoid it."
So what she means is that they are others, and she Gu Feiyan is the emperor's intimate person? !
The concubines were so angry that their faces were flushed, but they had to nod and say yes, Gu Feiyan was quite satisfied with this effect, since Ming Xuanze wanted her to play an arrogant and domineering favorite concubine, then of course she had to do it to the end, so she simply added a little provocation and show-off in her tone:
"It's my fault that I can't use breakfast, it just so happens that the emperor rewarded me with a lot of things, and my sisters can take what they like, anyway, the emperor rewards these things too much, and I don't think it's interesting, but you don't often get rewards, it should be very rare, right?"
This sentence is obviously very hateful, even if Gu Feiyan's psychology is strong, he can't resist the knife thrown out of the eyes of these women, but in the eyes of the hatred, there is one person who is very different, she smiled and stepped forward to salute Gu Feiyan, and chose the golden silk fragrant wood inlaid cicada jade bead and tired silk bead hairpin in the reward, and said generously:
"Concubine, thank you for the reward."
Gu Feiyan recognized that this person was Lu Chuxuan, who entered the palace at the same time as himself, because his family was ordinary, so he was only a small talent, but now it seems that this Lu Chuxuan is delicate and forbearing, and he is not an ordinary person.
Such a person would be the best helper if he stood up with himself, but if he ......
Gu Feiyan's eyebrows frowned slightly, and decided to hold the line first, so he smiled at Lu Chuxuan, her appearance was quite gentle, and Concubine Li, who was sitting in the highest position below, finally couldn't get angry, and spoke with a calm face:
"Concubine Chen, we know that you are deeply favored by the emperor, but the emperor has always been noble and very filial to the queen mother, how can Concubine Chen not go to the queen mother to say goodbye?"
Ming Xuanze filial piety to Empress Dowager Ye? You're not a fool, are you?
Gu Feiyan secretly complained in his heart, squinted his eyes, and didn't even look at Concubine Li:
"Concubine Li probably hasn't been favored for a long time, I don't know how tired she is after this favor, the emperor feels sorry for the palace, and specially exempted the palace, how can the palace live up to the emperor's heart?"
"You!"
was poked by Gu Feiyan again and again, Concubine Li finally couldn't help it:
"There are so many women in the harem, does Concubine Chen really think that she can be favored for a lifetime? There are no flowers for a hundred days, you are here today to show off your might, and tomorrow you may offend the emperor and be beaten into the cold palace! ”
"Concubine Li's words are good, but this palace has always felt that there is a day when the emperor lifts me up one day, and I will be a favorite concubine for one day."
Gu Feiyan casually played with the jade bracelet on his wrist, and his voice was lazy: "Besides, even if the flower is not red for a hundred days, this palace has also made the most beautiful and eye-catching flower, and your concubine Li, you have not even bloomed, you have already withered, haven't you?" ”
Mom, being an arrogant and domineering favorite concubine is really tired, Gu Feiyan couldn't help but scold herself in her heart, saying such vicious words, if Concubine Li doesn't get angry again, then she will really be a virgin!
Sure enough, Concubine Li's beautiful face turned blue with anger, and she glared at Gu Feiyan angrily, and at this moment, when she was about to break out, she suddenly remembered the voice of the little eunuch reporting the news:
"The emperor has arrived!"
