Chapter 114: The Haunting of Jingyi Palace (1)

There is nothing to do today, Shen Wan went to Shou'an Palace in the morning, but the Queen Mother still refused to see her, so she had to make a big ceremony outside the palace gate before leaving.

When he returned to Fengchen Palace, a team of palace people slowly walked in with a tray lined with yellow silk in their hands, and led the humane: "The emperor said that the decorations in Fengchen Palace are old, and he specially sent ninety-nine things for Niangniang to choose." He presented the gift list as he spoke, and said: "The emperor also said that if the queen doesn't like these, there are still them in the treasury." ”

Fengchen Palace is the most luxurious palace in the whole palace except Shangyang Palace, although the furnishings inside are old, they still do not lose their gorgeous brilliance, but these ornaments are no longer the decorations when my sister was there before, and they have all been replaced, without a trace of my sister who was once the queen, and it has been replaced when my sister was abolished, right?

Shen Wan waved her hand and said, "This palace doesn't have any special preferences for these, Cui Shanggong, your vision is elegant and noble, you can pick it." ”

Cui Chengqin took the order, looked at them one by one, and finally cooperated with the furniture in the palace and some of Shen Wan's preferences, and picked out more than a dozen exquisite and gorgeous ones, as well as more than a dozen ancient and simple ones.

Shen Wan looked over and nodded slightly. Suddenly, he asked, "This palace remembers that there used to be an enamel screen here, why is it missing?" ”

The chief eunuch replied: "Niangniang was sent to clean up when she got married, and the slave ordered someone to retrieve it for Niangniang." ”

Shen Wan knew that it was not so coincidental to clean it up, but to take back the warehouse, but not to break it. They are all clever people, and naturally they know that they want to find some traces of their sister, and that screen, my sister likes it very much.

After a while, the palace maids placed all the selected things, and the palace people submitted a list to ask the queen whether she wanted to change the candidates for Fengchen Palace.

Shen Wan looked through it, but she didn't see anything special, and she didn't know who her former sister trusted. In short, the one I trust now is Cui Chengqin, who is the noblest palace in Fengchen Palace, and the other two are Xiangming, who is a female official, and Chun'er, a personal palace maid, Chun'er is still young and cannot act as a female official. These three people can get close to themselves, and they don't know the conduct of the rest of them at present, so they dare not use them without permission.

In this way, it was still according to the original arrangement, and there was no exchange.

After sorting out everything in his palace, Cui Shanggong handed over another list, which was the list of concubines promoted by the queen.

Shen Wan smiled and said, "Let me win people's hearts, right?" ”

Cui Shanggong smiled silently, Shen Wan took it, picked up the red pen, and ticked the names of Cao Jieyu and Li Wanyi without thinking. Cui Shanggong was stunned and asked: "Niangniang's move is not afraid that others will know that these two people are Niangniang's subordinates, saying that Niangniang is nepotistic?" ”

Shen Wan said nonchalantly: "After a few things before, I'm afraid that the people in the harem already know that they are subordinates of this palace, why hide it?" Besides, if you want to promote a group of people anyway, why not promote your own people? Do they appreciate me when I promote others? ”

Cui Shanggong was silent, and Shen Wan ticked the name of Fu Concubine again, but when her eyes saw Pang Guiren and Yang Chang there, she was slightly stunned.

She sighed and said quietly: "I never know who Nei Ying is next to Sister Xianya, but it must be one of the two." Sister Xianya was very protective of them when she was alive, but she didn't want to die at the hands of one of them! ”

Cui Shanggong persuaded: "Niangniang doesn't have to promote their positions for the time being. ”

Shen Wan shook her head: "No, I want to Jin, the two of them will be Jin together!" After that, I ticked off the names of both of them.

After being busy for a long time, it was time for lunch, but someone from the palace came to report that the eldest son of the emperor refused to eat, and knocked over all the food, and still clamored to go back to Ruizhu Palace.

Shen Wan elegantly took a chopstick dish and chewed it slowly in her mouth, and after eating the food in her mouth, she gently wiped her mouth with a white towel and said with a light smile: "Since he doesn't want to eat, let's withdraw the meal." Remember, he is not allowed to touch anything before dinner. In my Fengchen Palace, eating on time is the rule. ”

The palace man wiped his sweat and retreated.

Shen Wan continued to eat elegantly, and Cui Shanggong opened his mouth, but still did not speak.

When the meal was withdrawn, Shen Wan sat down with tea and Cui Shanggong asked: "Niangniang treated the emperor's eldest son like this, if the emperor knows, I'm afraid she will be blamed." The emperor favors the mother again, but the eldest son of the emperor is the emperor's son after all. ”

Shen Wan still smiled shallowly and asked, "So what does Cui Shanggong think of me?" Personally go and ask him to eat? That doesn't work teachers, you teach children in the countryside, they respect you and listen to you. But this kid, he hates me. Therefore, I don't have to put down my body to beg him for dinner, and I don't need to be too affectionate, so that I will be uncomfortable, and others will only guess when they see it. ”

Cui Shanggong asked, "So Niangniang hasn't seen the emperor's eldest son since he came?" ”

Shen Wan said: "This child is spoiled, and I hate children who are spoiled and arrogant!" The emperor understands my temper, so I just need to do what I want. ”

Cui Shanggong nodded and said: "It seems that Niangniang is doing the right thing, it is better to be willful at this time than willful in the future." ”

Shen Wan smiled: "Others may seem to me to be willful, but this is the best way to treat the emperor's eldest son." ”

In the afternoon, several concubines came to sit idle, and the will of Jin Feng had not yet been conveyed, they probably came to offer courtesy, hoping that the queen would be good to herself.

Shen Wan responded to them lightly, accepted the gifts they offered, and ordered someone to prepare a return gift.

The etiquette of more than a month was not learned in vain, and Shen Wan always coped with these decently. A calm smile, an indifferent expression, a gentle and dignified tone, and a royal nobility in every gesture.

A few people in the seat held their breath and did not dare to slack off.

In addition to Concubine Pei, who was grounded, Concubine Qing and Xia Guiren, who knew that no matter what they did, they would not forgive, and a few concubines who had fallen out of favor for a long time and were unwilling to compete for favor anymore, and the rest of the people came. Like Cao Jieyu, Fang Jieyu, Li Wanyi, Fu Concubine and others are familiar with each other, and a few are concubines in the palace before, and they have almost forgotten it.

Pang Guiren and Yang Changzai were also there, Shen Wan's heart moved, and asked Cui Shanggong with a smile: "Spring planting and autumn harvest, have all the flowers and plants in Fengchen Palace been planted?" ”

Cui Shanggong replied: "Back to Niangniang, the Ministry of Internal Affairs came to ask, and Weichen remembered Niangniang's previous preferences and had already ordered it." ”

Shen Wan nodded, and said, "Can you plant hollyhocks?" ”

Cui Shanggong was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said: "I don't know that Niangniang likes hollyhocks, so she didn't plant them." ”

Shen Wan's eyes were red, and she raised her sleeves to hide her face, but her eyes swept back and forth between Pang Gui and Yang Chang, and she choked up: "This palace remembers that in the past, Sister Xianya loved hollyhocks the most. I don't know if the two younger sisters of Huazhi and Xueling still remember? ”

Xue Ling was stunned for a moment, looked at Shen Wan blankly and said, "The concubine only remembers that Sister Xianya loves Hibiscus, but I don't know that she still likes hollyhock!" ”

The painting said: "Niang Niang thinks it's a mistake, Sister Xianya was allergic to hollyhocks before her death, and hollyhocks have never been planted in Jingyi Palace." ”

Shen Wan smiled awkwardly and said, "I think I really remembered wrong, Cui Shanggong, you don't have to plant those." If Sister Xianya comes back to see me and smells the smell, I'm afraid she won't want to come in. ”

Cui Shanggong agreed, and Shen Wan looked at the expressions of the two again, one was sad, and the other was a little unnatural.
