Text Chapter One Hundred and Six The Empress Dowager's Decree

"Rite? Hmph, why don't you lose the face of my royal family? The Queen Mother snorted coldly and replied, her eyes full of impatience.

The queen's eyes flashed slightly, Li Zhaoyi's flamboyant appearance really disgusted her, but the emperor seemed to be quite fond of Li Zhaoyi, and now seeing Chu Mengxi annoying the Queen Mother like this, she wished that the Queen Mother would directly save this gift and suppress Li Zhaoyi's arrogance. But there is still the dignity and dignity that a queen should have.

"The queen mother is dissatisfied with the concubines and knows very well, but Miss Chu is the eldest daughter of the Qingguo Mansion after all, this is ......" The queen said embarrassedly, she wanted Chu Mengxi to lose face, but the old lady Zhen of the Qingguo Mansion was still her aunt, and the face of the Qingguo Mansion was not beautiful.

The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows and said: "Spread the will of the mourning family, and tomorrow Chu Mengxi will be brought into the palace in a soft sedan chair. ”

"Yes, the concubine respects the Empress Dowager's decree." The queen replied respectfully, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, hum, Zhaoyi is Zhaoyi, even if you want to pull the Qingguo Mansion? It's not that it can't be wooed, but the palace doesn't believe it, and the Qingguo Mansion will help Chu Mengxi, the concubine.

Yunshang lowered her eyebrows slightly, and sighed slightly in her heart, Chu Mengxi, I thought I needed to spend some words, but I didn't expect you to attract people to hold grudges like this, it's really worry-free.

The Queen Mother was also angry, took Yunshang's hand and said, "Shang'er, let's accompany the mourning family to live in the palace in a few days." ”

Yun Sheng smiled slightly: "I also think about the fruits of the palace, I heard from the second emperor brother that the fruit of the state banquet had an accident before, but fortunately there were some in the palace, and now there are still a lot of palaces left." ”

"Shang'er, you said that there was an accident with the fruit during the state banquet?" The queen asked vigilantly.

Yunshang was stunned for a moment, and said hesitantly: "Yes, the second emperor brother unintentionally mentioned it some time ago, so I don't think it's serious." ”

Yunshang seemed to be unintentional, but it made the queen suspicious, and a few years ago, the state banquets were prepared by the five princes. This state banquet is the emperor's favor, once Rong'er organizes this state banquet and something goes wrong, the biggest benefit is the five princes. It seems that he has been so indulgent to the two of them during this time, and he didn't even put this palace in his eyes. The main palace wanted them to see who was the lord of the six palaces.

Looking at the haze in the queen's eyes, the corners of Yunsheng's mouth raised, Chu Mengxi, Li Zhaoyi, how about such a strong enemy as the queen?

The three of them gossiped for a while, and the queen and Yunshang saw the queen mother yawning, and got up together to retire.

The two slowly exited the main hall of Cining Palace.

The queen smiled and said: "The palace has a newly made palace flower, how about Shang'er go to the Kunning Palace of the palace to sit?" ”

Yunshang knew that the queen had something to say, and said with a smile: "But it's disrespectful." ”

The queen smiled and took the cloud dress to the phoenix, and after three moments, the phoenix stopped in Kunning Palace.

The number of times Kunning Gong Yunshang arrived was not much. I looked up slightly, and saw three big characters depicting gold painting Fengkun Ning Palace. On the ridge of the roof, the five divine beasts are majestic, and the bright glazed tiles are shining blue and yellow in the sun. Kunning Palace, Cining Palace, and Yangxin Palace are located on the central axis of the palace, and the specifications of the palace are consistent with those of Cining Palace. Whether it is the size of the palace or the decorations in the palace, it shows the noble identity of the owner.

Crossing the weeping flower gate, passing through the east and west hugging the building, entering the second moon gate, passing through the peony bush is the main hall of Cining Palace.

Push open the carved mahogany door, and what comes into view is a double-sided embroidered screen with 16 hundred birds and phoenixes, and the four corners of the screen are inlaid with jewelry. Bypass the screen, in front of the main hall of the Ming Hall, is the place where the queen summons the concubines, a pair of crane copper tire gilt incense burners are placed on both sides of the soft collapse, and the copper burnt blue inlay peony flowers bloom jade bonsai on the small table in the center of the soft collapse. There are four rosewood Taishi chairs on the left and right, and the two sides are the east and west warm pavilions.

Yunshang followed the queen into the Dongnuan Pavilion and sat down on the soft collapse. I saw a pair of cloisonnΓ© enamel blue glazed amphorae on the right side of the soft collapse, and a pink jade lotus pond moon ornament on the left side. The central bronze tire gilt hundred flowers and phoenix incense burner are emitting bursts of incense.

"Come on, bring the new palace flowers."

"Yes"

The palace maid bowed down and withdrew from the warm pavilion, but for a moment the palace maid held a whole box of luxurious palace flowers into it, only to see that the palace flowers were all with Caijuan as petals, gold silk as stamens, south beads as dewdrops, and black jade as branches.

Yunshang sighed slightly in her heart, such a palace flower even if she saw it, she liked it tightly, I am afraid that all the palace works are here, peonies, peonies, peach blossoms, pomegranates, and begonias. Peonies are two colors, purple noble, bright red, I am afraid that one is for the queen mother, and the other is the queen's own. The peony is probably prepared for the concubine, and the pomegranate has many sons and many blessings, so it must be the imperial sister of Jinrou. And this peach blossom and begonia are ......

The person in the palace who is so here, Concubine Wen Shu?

Yunshang raised her hand and chose the Peach Blossom Palace Flower Road: "I look at this peach blossom lifelike, luxurious and exquisite, I like it very much, can my aunt be willing to give it to me?" ”

The queen's eyes flashed slightly, among these palace flowers, the peach blossoms were the lightest, I hoped that Yunshang could choose the begonias, but it was a pity to use the peach blossoms to burn Concubine Wen's eyes.

Concubine Wen Shu, thinking of this person, the queen's eyebrows wrinkled slightly, Concubine Wen Shufei was just twenty years old, but she was ranked below the concubine, the concubine, and the fourth concubine. It is true that her father is a cabinet bachelor, but Concubine Wen Shufei lost her son in her early years and became a concubine without a child, saying that the emperor has no preference for her, I am afraid no one will believe it.

Although Rong'er is an adult and occupies the position of sister-in-law, as a woman, no one wants the glory and favor of the six palaces to be combined. The queen smiled and said, "Xiang'er likes peach blossoms? Raising his eyebrows, he swept the peach blossom dancing butterfly red golden hairpin between Yunshang's hair, and a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes.

Yunshang chuckled and said: "Yes, this is spring after the New Year, looking at the depression of winter, I miss spring even more, and I miss the peach blossom and apricot rain even more." ”

"If you like it, it's fine. By the way, what did you say about the fruit at the state banquet? The queen finally asked the question she wanted to ask the most. On the day of the state banquet, if it shows that there is a problem with the fruit, and Yunshang is missing, Rong'er will be punished, not to mention, and even he will be reprimanded by the queen mother and the emperor.

When Yunshang entered the palace to stay, looking at Li Zhaoyi's appearance, I am afraid that she also knew the details. The Ye family is Li Zhaoyi's minions, no matter how you look at Li Zhaoyi, she is not innocent.

"Yes, I heard Brother Rong mention before that half of the fruits before the state banquet had a problem somehow, but fortunately, Brother Rong had already prepared and put the prepared fruits in the palace." Yun Sheng said indifferently, playing with the peach blossom hairpin back and forth in her hand.

"Well, the fruit is difficult to preserve, probably because the person in charge has not kept it properly. It is inevitable that some people will not pay attention to your brother Rong's first time. The queen said with a big belly.

"Really? Both of those in charge can be punished. Yunshang said dissatisfiedly, only acting as if she was upset for Jinrong.

"Two in charge?"

"Well, during that time, I happened to discuss some issues with Si Zhen of the Shangyi Bureau, but I heard Si Zhen say that the clothes for the palace banquet were in condition, and I am afraid that I will not be able to help me prepare. After many inquiries, I learned that the clothes of the dancer were damaged and needed to be prepared. Originally, I thought this was a rare phenomenon. When the state banquet is so important, the dancer's clothes must be made of the best materials, and the exquisite workmanship must be damaged, I heard my aunt say this, but I know. Yunshang said indignantly.

Hearing this, the queen's brows wrinkled even tighter, why, out of the fruit, even the clothes and feet were moved? Damn, is Li Zhaoyi's hand a little longer? Now I want to pull the Qingguo Mansion to my side, but I want to compete with Rong'er for the throne? Auntie, don't complain that this palace doesn't help you, this Chu Mengxi is a concubine, this palace will definitely break her arm, and you can't raise a tiger for trouble.

Yunshang saw the queen's indignant and contemplative look, and the corners of her mouth raised. In Chu Mengxi's previous life, because of his beauty and gentleness, he was accustomed to meeting the source left and right, and there was a backstage like the Qingguo Mansion, since he entered the palace, he got the blue eyes of his aunt and Bai Guifei, and they all wanted to be pulled into the command, so he was promoted to a fourth-grade nobleman after two years in the palace with the position of six-grade Baolin. As soon as he was promoted to a nobleman, he was impatient to kill himself and the child who was still in the womb.

In this life, Chu Mengxi, I want to see how you turn over!

On the second day, Yunshang had just returned home, and the Queen Mother's edict also arrived at the Qingguo Mansion.

"Fengtian carrier, the queen mother's decree, Chu Mengxi, the daughter of the Qingguo Mansion, has good looks and appearance, and the five princes are in love, and the mourning family is very happy, and she is named the prince's concubine, given the name Shu, and stays in the Chengqian Palace today, Chu Mengxi will accept the order." The eunuch who arrived chuckled and preached the message.

When Chu Mengxi heard the Empress Dowager's decree, he almost crushed his silver teeth, and his eyes were burning with anger. Concubine! In the end, I still have to enter the Chengqian Palace as a concubine! She is a concubine, the eldest daughter of the Qingguo Mansion! In the eyes of the Queen Mother, she is only worthy of the position of a concubine?

"Chu Mengxi takes the order!" The father-in-law said loudly.

Chu Mengxi had to suppress the anger in his heart and said respectfully: "The courtier Chu Mengxi took the order. ”

Su Ruoxue quietly pulled Chu Mengxi to signal for a while, and stepped forward with a smile: "Father-in-law has worked hard all the way. The big girl next to her understood and gave her father-in-law a big red envelope. The father-in-law pinched the red envelope, and there was a smile in the corner of his eye.

Su Ruoxue asked with a smile: "Father-in-law, my son's marriage is complicated, so I will ...... today."

The father-in-law smiled coldly and said: "Mrs. Su, the miscellaneous family is not good, how can this prince be so particular about taking concubines, the queen mother said, Now the relationship with Beidi is tense, all this, simple!" This sedan chair is also ready, Miss Chu, oh, no, Mrs. Shu will enter the palace with the miscellaneous family. ”

Chu Mengxi's eyes widened unconsciously when he heard this, his hands trembled uncontrollably, everything was simple, and he entered the palace now. I don't even have a wedding dress, so I want to enter the palace like this? The sedan chair that the father-in-law brought when he entered the house also saw it, but it was a soft sedan chair with four people sprinkling flowers, the red was red, not even the red, and he wanted to enter the palace in such a humiliating way.

Su Ruoxue was also shocked when she heard this, could it be that the Queen Mother was already so disgusted with Chu Mengxi? How can it be said that Chu Mengxi was also brought up by her, so she wanted to marry like this......

"Father-in-law, there is no wedding dress in this house, so I am in such a hurry, can you allow me to prepare one or two. Please have some drinks in the hall, and I think my father-in-law should ...... tired," Mrs. Su said with a smile.

But he didn't want the father-in-law to wave his hand and said: "Mrs. Su, the affairs in the miscellaneous palace are busy, no, when I return to the palace to recover my life, and send palace flowers to Princess Jinrou for the queen's mother, I am really busy." Is this wedding dress, Mrs. Shu entered the palace as a concubine, so she couldn't wear red, if she was ready, she would have violated the rules. ”

can't wear red, this sentence is a heavy blow in Chu Mengxi's heart. Zhenghong is worn by the main room, and he is destined to enter the palace and have no chance with Zhenghong?
