Chapter 334: The Root of Pain
Xiao Zhuyin didn't dare to act rashly, ordered someone to go to the imperial dining room to inquire about the news, and when she heard the queen summons, she removed the heavy and gorgeous headdress on her body and changed into a more simple outfit.
After all, it was the first time she had seen the queen, and the brute princess would definitely take the opportunity to suppress her power, and no one could find a chance to depose her. Clothes are naturally not easy to be too flashy, so that people can grab the handle.
Xiao Zhuyin straightened his appearance a little, and hurried to Fengqi Palace, at this time, there were already concubines waiting outside the palace in Fengqi Palace, and they did not dare to enter.
Xiao Zhuyin saw Bo Ruoxue and Wen Ya, both of whom were her confidants.
Seeing Xiao Zhuyin arrive from a distance, there were two of them among the several slaves and maids who were killed.
"Concubine Niangniang, you can come."
"Why don't you go in when the two sisters come, it won't be good to be seen by the queen."
"Is the queen going to be punished?"
There are also people guarding outside the Fengqi Palace, and we must be cautious in everything we say and do, "Although it is the slave who has made a mistake, as the master, we have not managed our own slaves, and there is always improper discipline, just admit our mistakes with peace of mind." ”
In the words, the three of them said that they had a good relationship, and after entering, they just admit their mistakes, and there will not be much trouble, and they must not be disobedient, after all, the queen is a barbarian. In their eyes, the barbarians are barbarians without etiquette,
In the hall, Ruan Shengnan was dressing up, and he had already ordered someone to call Mingxiu back to confront those concubines.
The concubines of the various palaces in the main hall have already gathered, and Ruan Shengnan slowly entered the main hall with the inner hall surrounded by everyone and sat on the phoenix couch.
Looking at the many concubines in the Da Yin harem, the number is less than one-tenth of the Manhu harem, but there is no one who has captivated the country and the city, how long has this Da Yin harem not chosen a concubine?
Looking at the concubines, Xiao Zhuyin stepped forward, "Concubine Xiao Guifei has seen the queen mother." ”
"Concubine Jing, Concubine Li, Concubine Bo has seen the queen's mother."
"This palace didn't expect that there were only a dozen palace concubines in Dayin's harem, and it seems that the emperor has always been diligent and loves the people."
Xiao Zhuyin didn't expect Ruan Shengnan to care about these, the concubines who entered the palace together, died and died, and she was the only one left.
Xiao Zhuyin stepped forward and said: "Back to the queen, the emperor has always been diligent in government, since he ascended the throne, he has only accepted a concubine once at the beginning of the founding of the country, and the queen has been abolished several times, and now there are only a dozen concubines left." ”
"In this way, those who can stay are those with relatively high means."
Xiao Zhuyin immediately expressed her loyalty, "Queen Mother, the reason why the concubines stayed was because they never had the heart to compete for favor, and they only did their part, and they could share their worries and solve problems for the Queen Mother." ”
It's a good thing to share worries and solve problems, but I don't want to let myself take back power, "I will talk about the things that are shared and solved later." Today, I'm going to talk about what happened in the Imperial Dining Room. Mingxiu! ”
Li Mingxiu walked out from the side and looked at the concubines whose faces changed slightly, "Those palace maids are disrespectful to the queen mother, and they have been corrected on the spot." ”
Xiao Zhuyin knelt on the ground one after another, "It's because the concubine instructor is not strict, and I ask the queen to forgive me!" ”
Ruan Shengnan looked at these concubines, looking respectful on the surface, but secretly scolding her in his heart, "There must be servants and masters, and the servants are so disrespectful to the palace, which is enough to see the attitude of everyone towards the palace." ”
"Queen Mother, wronged! Poor discipline is not strict discipline of the concubines, all the concubines are from famous families, they all know the rules of the palace, not those vulgar girls, do not understand the etiquette, how can the concubines be compared with the girls. ”
Mingxiu grabbed the white and said: "Those servants admit that those words are from the mouth of the palace concubine. ”
Ruan Shengnan's eyebrows gradually chilled, it was obvious that Xiao Zhuyin was standing up for the concubines, "Mingxiu stood aside, so as not to be called a vulgar girl." ”
Feng Yan looked Xiao Zhuyin up and down, "This harem will naturally be in charge of the palace in the future, there must be the rules of the harem, the servant will naturally be punished if he makes a mistake, and the disrespect to the queen in the barbarian Hu will be executed, since this is Da Yin, it will be demoted by one level, if someone dares to be disrespectful in the future, the servant will be at fault and the master will sit down!" ”
Such a heavy punishment caused the concubines to sigh for a while, "Is the queen a little heavier punished!" From outside the hall, there was a reckless voice.
All the concubines got up and knelt down and said, "Long live the emperor, long live!" ”
"Get up!"
Xuanyuan was outside but listened to it for a long time, Ruan Shengnan just wanted to get off the horse, and he just wanted to see his attitude.
Although these women are useless, they can't let her be too idle in the harem.
"Queen, disrespecting the queen should be punished, it is better to punish it for half a year, and the small punishment and the big precept will not hurt the harmony."
Ruan Shengnan saw that Xuanyuan was openly protecting these women, and she was punished more heavily, just to let them remember it for a long time.
"I didn't expect the emperor to treat the people in the harem kindly, I heard that there are three thousand beauties in the harem, these concubines are all selected by the emperor when he ascends the throne, but the number is too small, it is better to choose some concubines for the emperor to come in and fill the harem."
Ruan Shengnan wanted to prepare for his own forces, "I just got married, how can I snub the queen, this matter will be discussed later, let them take people away first, so as not to be overjoyed." Xuanyuan's attitude was clear.
"Good! For the sake of the emperor's face, he punished them for half a year, and the ugly words were said before, if there was another offense, the palace would not be spared. Mingxiu, take someone to lead people away. ”
"Yes!"
The concubines retreated one after another, and Xuanyuan looked at Ruan Shengnan very much, "Why should the queen bother with those concubines, so as not to hurt the fetus!" ”
Ruan Shengnan looked at him, he really cared about the child in her womb, but he still remembered that he still had a child missing.
I really wanted to ask about the whereabouts of the mother and son, but I was afraid that asking would hurt the feelings of the husband and wife, "Since the emperor is here, the concubine still has a matter, and the concubine wants to summon the envoy of the barbarian Hu to send them back quickly, so as not to cause another incident." ”
"That's what I mean!"
Outside the Fengqi Palace, the concubines were speechless, and they were extremely disgusted with the queen in their hearts, Xiao Zhuyin was even more worried, Princess Manhu wanted to take away her rights, what should she do?
Ji Jinru heard that Xiao Zhuyin suffered a loss from the queen's mother, and she was still gloating in her heart.
As the saying goes, the enemy of the enemy is the friend, she doesn't have the slightest affection for the princess of the barbarian beard, and the only masters she identifies are Mu Bangshang and the emperor.
She had not yet gone to see the queen, so she drew a pattern in the Shang Palace Bureau, and it was the emperor who ordered her to draw a pattern of jewelry to inlay purple gemstones.
The emperor instructed that since the design should be exquisite, there should be no inappropriateness.
Xuanyuan once recorded in an ancient book that such purple gems are very rare in the world, but they are not unique. The faint light emitted can make pregnant women miscarry, and lifelong damage is inevitable.
Ruan Shengnan's martial arts are not weak, any drugs and artificial means will be discovered by her, so she will not know it, after all, the purple gem was sent by Xifan.
Early the next morning, Ji Jinru came to Fengqi Palace with the drawings of the palace costume and the patterns of jewelry.
Xuanyuan went to the court, Ruan Shengnan was drowsy, and heard that Ji Shanggong asked to see her, although she was in charge of the harem, the specific matters had not yet begun.
"Come in!"
Ji Jinru came to the dormitory with a respectful expression, she was the first time to see the princess of the barbarian beard, her facial features and eyebrows showed a heroic spirit, compared with the beautiful Mu Bangshang, she was more heroic.
"Ji Jinru see the queen's mother, a thousand years old and a thousand years old!"
Ruan Shengnan looked Ji Jinru up and down, she looked very well-behaved and clever, which made people unsuspecting, looking at the pattern she was holding in her hand?
"Get up! I don't know what happened to Ji Shanggong? ”
"Jinru was ordered by the emperor to bring the pattern of jewelry, as well as the style of winter palace clothes, please choose from the emperor."
The style of Dayin Palace is cumbersome, and it is not as convenient as the clothes of the barbarian, so Ji Jinru can choose at will.
As for the pattern of jewelry, for Ruan Shengnan, Xuanyuan chose jewelry for her, which is very incredible.
"There are a total of twenty-one of these patterns, there are gemstones without shaking hairpins with gold ornaments, gems will be matched with crystals, flower crowns will also be matched with rubies, can also be cut into earrings, everything depends on the queen's preferences."
"Did the emperor choose jewelry for his concubines before?"
Ji Jinru in order to dispel the doubts in Ruan Shengnan's heart, "Of course, the emperor not only chooses jewelry, but also palace clothes, which is probably the tradition of Emperor Dayin." ”
"How do you talk about it?"
"More than 200 years ago, Empress Murong, the mother of the founding of the country, believed in Buddhism and opposed killing, and Emperor Xuanyuan personally made imitation hairpins for Empress Murong with emeralds, which was passed down as a good story with good intentions."
The emperor personally made jewelry for the queen, which is absolutely impossible to happen in Manhu, and the man of Dayin is really amorous. More gentle and considerate than a barbarian man full of blood.
Ji Jinru continued: "Not only the emperor's house, but also in Dayin, men generally give women's jewelry and jade pendants as love tokens, and women generally send Jinpa Qingsi acacia knots, which is not surprising. ”
Ruan Shengnan had heard of it, and she no longer doubted it in her heart, looking at the pattern sent by Ji Jinru, she liked Yingluo even more, but it was too gorgeous to be able to carry it on her every day, after all, it was the first thing Xuanyuan gave her, and she had to take it with her all the time.
"Let's do it!" Ruan Shengnan pointed to a pattern.
Ji Jinru saw that Ruan Shengnan really chose a gilded gemstone golden hairpin, just as the emperor expected.
Ji Jinru said deliberately: "Queen Mother, it seems too simple and not luxurious to make such a precious gem into a simple gilt hairpin, it is better to make it into a jewel or a gemstone crown." ”
Ruan Shengnan doesn't like cumbersome and gorgeous, and in the past, he only tied a ponytail in the military camp, and it was very comfortable to have another hairpin.
I was sure in my heart, "Let's make a hairpin!" ”
Ji Jinru was a little helpless, "Yes!" ”
Watching Ji Jinru leave, Li Mingxiu said with a regretful face: "Niangniang, that gem is a priceless gift from the West, just being a hairpin is a tyrannical thing, and that flower crown is worthy of Niangniang." ”
Ruan Shengnan guessed that Xuanyuan might not have really given her a gift, and that the gem was given by Xifan, but he just wanted to show that he did not neglect her as a queen in front of the barbarian envoy.
For Ruan Shengnan, it was the first thing Xuanyuan gave her, and she naturally had to take it with her at all times. Little did she know that hairpin would be the source of her life's pain.
