Chapter 15: Misunderstandings
At first, she was not so sure that the queen was putting red flowers in the rice balls, but Long Chuxia's reaction made her feel more and more that the queen was replaced by any concubine in the palace, as long as there was an attempt to kill Di Rui, I believe that Long Chuxia would definitely investigate to the end and punish him severely, but because she was the queen, she didn't even want to investigate, the queen, in the end, she picked it out herself
Because of this emotion, she is anxious every day, and even feels that living in Xuantian Pavilion is also very dangerous Since the last safflower incident, she began to reuse Xiaozhen, although Xiaozhen was also serving in front of her before, but in the end she couldn't put her heart into it, but last time she dared to contradict the queen for her and stand out for her, this friendship is commendable, especially in the deep palace, where people eat people, it is much easier to have such a loyal girl
Especially Xiaozhen, it's not just her personal maid when she was pregnant, the emperor came to see her late at night, she couldn't have sex, so she asked Xiaozhen to serve the emperor for one night, she let Xiaozhen go, because she knew that Xiaozhen didn't have much desire for power, and she wouldn't want to get the emperor's favor, it turned out that even if she had a one-night relationship with the emperor, her attitude towards serving her was not the slightest slack, and even more attentive
Now, she is lonely and weak in the palace, if Xiaozhen can get the emperor's favor, it is a good thing that the two of them rely on each other
She told Xiaozhen of this idea, Xiaozhen was a little surprised, and then objected, "No, slaves and maids are slaves, that night was just that the master's body was uncomfortable, and only that time, the slave and maid did not dare to expect the emperor's favor"
Shen Guiren didn't force her, but when the time was ripe, she planned to arrange it, so in the end she smiled and said: "What is extravagant, if you can get the emperor's favor in the future, we will not be helpless."
Xiaozhen was stunned and didn't speak
It's been about half a month since the safflower incident, and early this morning, the concubines came to say goodbye, and Long Chuxia also got up early in the past, but recently, the concubines waited for about half an hour, and they didn't see her come out
Everyone cast a questioning look at Shen Guiren, and Shen Guiren himself didn't know that although he lived in Xuantian Pavilion, she was here in Lihuatang, unless she asked for peace, she generally didn't come to the main hall She turned around and wanted to ask Xiao Zhen to see what was going on, but she remembered that Xiao Zhen had not come back since she brought water for her today, and it was Hong'er who asked Hong'er when she was grooming her, and Hong'er said that Xiaozhen walked out in a hurry, and she thought she was in a hurry, and she didn't care at the time
Ling Guifei gradually became impatient, she stood up, today she was wearing a long silk dress with gold trim and flowers, the colors were bright and shining, and there were golden steps on her temples
Concubine Li said lightly: "Concubine don't be anxious, the Queen Mother must have something to delay today, let's not miss this moment anyway, wait with peace of mind!" "These two women used to fight to the death, and they could hear a thorn in each other's words, but now that Concubine Li has such a big prompt, how could Ling Guifei not hear it? The Queen Mother has something to delay, the Queen Mother is in charge of the harem affairs, the big thing that happened to her hand must be the big thing in the harem, she signaled to Concubine Hua to know, don't be impatient, it is estimated that something big happened today
Ling Guifei sat down and thought about it carefully, today's atmosphere is really a little dignified, even the palace people of Xuantian Pavilion have not seen a single one so far, and no one even serves tea
The queen sat on the chair next to the queen mother's phoenix seat, her expression did not change, but her face was a little pale, Concubine De came over and asked softly: "Niangniang, your face is a little bad, is it because you are uncomfortable?" ”
The corners of the queen's mouth showed a grateful smile, now all the concubines believe that she is the murderer of Di Rui, and no one pays attention to her, but this stupid girl even came over and asked her with concern if she was uncomfortable, is she really afraid of offending the hatred of the public? But no matter what, she was still grateful, "Hongu is fine, I didn't sleep well last night!" ”
Ling Guifei sat under her, and when she heard her words, she couldn't help but snort and said coldly: "Naturally, I can't sleep well, I've done so many bad things, it's strange that I can sleep!" ”
The queen's face froze, and she subconsciously looked at Shen Guiren, Shen Guiren stared at her coldly, her eyes were full of hatred The queen's heart was cold, that's it, she was most afraid of this, although the queen mother said that she believed her, but she still hoped that she would pursue it, at least she could return her an innocent queen, she really did a lot of tricks, especially now that the phoenix seal has also been taken back, there is no backstage, no strong mother's family, no heirs, no emperor's favor, and even the queen's phoenix seal, who will put her in her eyes?
She knew that it was a very irrational act to argue with Ling Guifei at this time, because everyone present was eager to see how she fell off the throne of the queen, and they were all waiting for her to be laughed at and humiliated by Ling Guifei with a gloating mentality
Therefore, she gritted her teeth and did not speak with a white face
However, Concubine De, who has always been calm, said lightly, "So, isn't the concubine unable to sleep peacefully every night?" What she meant was that Concubine Ling had done a lot of evil, and everyone couldn't have imagined that Concubine De, who had never been a councillor, would say such a thing, and this sentence was clearly a slap in the face to Concubine Ling
Concubine De's family has someone, so even if she is not deeply favored, no one dares to bully her, but today she stepped on Concubine Ling's tail
Everyone saw Ling Guifei's face change suddenly, and immediately heard her say coldly: "Concubine De, what do you mean?" There was a cold aura all around her, her apricot eyes were round, there were a few red threads in her eyes, her mouth was slightly bent, and her momentum was compelling
The queen took Concubine Rad's hand and signaled her not to say any more, but Concubine De ignored the queen's stop and said, "So, what does the concubine mean when she says the queen's mother?" ”
"This palace is a concubine, when will it be your turn to question?" Ling Guifei said coldly, "It seems that you are not familiar with the palace rules?" Or didn't you take Hongu seriously at all? ”
Concubine Li shook her head, this Ling Guifei really made a mistake on impulse, saying this, didn't it give Concubine De a chance to refute? Sure enough, Concubine De sneered, "The concubine is just learning from the concubine, as a concubine, she often shouts at the queen, so why do you put the queen in her eyes?" It's just that I don't know if Niangniang doesn't understand the rules of the palace or forgets that she is just a concubine, and she wants to go past the queen! ”
Ling Guifei's face was pale, and she was stunned for a long time, but she couldn't find the words to refute
The concubines present were silent, everyone looked at Concubine De with surprised eyes, but they didn't expect her to be quiet and kind, and today she would go against Ling Guifei, and she would not be so affectionate
Shen Guiren was also a little unhappy when he saw Concubine De helping the queen, and said: "Concubine De Niangniang, you must learn to distinguish between right and wrong, don't be strong!" ”
Concubine De glanced at her lightly and said, "Shen noble, don't distinguish between good and bad!" ”
Shen Guiren sighed, and was about to refute, when he heard the inner chamberlain shouting: "The Queen Mother has arrived!" ”
In fact, Long Chuxia had been out for a while, and he just heard the conversation between Concubine De and Concubine Ling, and he couldn't help but look at Concubine De differently
"The concubine sees the Queen Mother!" The concubines hurriedly knelt down to say goodbye
The queen's face was full of grievances, but she still endured it, knelt down and choked up: "The concubine asks the queen mother!" ”
Long Chuxia said: "Get up!" ”
The concubines thanked her, and then sat down Xiao Xun stepped forward to help the queen up, and said: "Niangniang, all the concubines call the queen mother the queen mother, the entire harem, only one woman calls her the queen mother, under her, it is you, sometimes, knowing that you are being bullied, don't be dumb and silent, the more you retreat, the more people will have to inch in."
Xiao Xun's words were directed at Ling Guifei, Ling Guifei had just been angry with Concubine De, and now she was sarcastically abused by Xiao Xun with words, and she rushed up angrily and said angrily: "What does Aunt Xiao Xun mean by this?" Do you mean that she was bullied by others? When have you ever seen Hongu bully her? ”
"I just saw it, and I saw it more than once, you have committed the following crimes more than once, what is the great thing about the concubine, where is she arrogant every day, don't think I don't know what you have in mind, this queen's position, you don't think about it!" Kaoru scolded
Ling Guifei turned to look at Long Chuxia and said angrily: "Don't you care about the Queen Mother? She is a subordinate, how dare she yell at her master like this, is there still palace rules and precepts? ”
Long Chuxia just smiled idly, "Tube? can't care, when she is angry, she even scolds Bengong, Bengong doesn't dare to provoke her! ”
