Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Concubine Election is eliminated and participates in the repechage match
An Ge didn't expect the queen to still remember this matter, she thought about it a little, and concealed what she found in Concubine Jing's medical case, and only said: "I didn't expect the queen to still remember, she has been busy with other things recently, and she hasn't had time to check my mother's posthumous work." ”
Concubine Jing's poisoning is related to the royal reputation, and if there is no solid evidence, An Ge feels that it is better to pretend not to know. lest something bad happen.
"Oh, I see." The queen nodded, but she didn't continue to ask, she was silent for a moment, and said solemnly, "The palace knows what happened to the emperor last night, Tan and Bai are not terrible, what is terrible is the Dongchang force that can't be lost." If there is no big fault that is enough to take out the entire East Factory, it is meaningless for the emperor to take out Tan and Bai. ”
An Ge looked at the queen in bewilderment...... She kept herself until now, just to ask her these questions? But this matter is too big, is it something that a petty official like her can do to kill the entire East Factory?
The queen saw An Ge's bloodshot eyes again, so she smiled and said: "The palace almost forgot, you didn't sleep all night last night, and the palace really shouldn't detain you in the palace now, you should go back and rest quickly." What this palace said to you, you must remember it carefully. ”
…… Although An Ge still had doubts in his heart, he quickly thanked him and withdrew.
After she left, Zicui came up to help the queen to rest behind the main hall, and ordered the palace maid to come over with a cup of tea, and said, "Does the queen really think that Lord An can bring down Dongchang?" ”
"It doesn't matter if she can or not, it's always right for such a powerful person to come to this side. I heard that she took out one of Tan and Bai's henchmen as soon as she made a move last night? What a good means. The queen chuckled, held her chin and thought for a while, and suddenly said, "By the way, didn't the ninth princess of the chrysanthemum banquet also send her a post last time?" But which son-in-law has taken a fancy to her? ”
Zicui replied: "The Ninth Princess knew that Niangniang cared about Lord An, and the Ninth Princess sent a message the day after the chrysanthemum banquet, saying that she only saw Lord An and General Jing say a few words, and then said a few words to the imperial physician Su Yi'an, and the rest of the time they were with Miss Liu, but they didn't talk to the man next to them. Moreover, the ninth princess said that Miss An and Su Yi'an were relatively close, and General Jing was angry with General Jing without saying a word. ”
"Su Yi'an can't." The queen took a sip of the teacup, shook her head and said firmly.
"Why?" Zicui was a little puzzled, "Although Imperial Doctor Su has a low background and a low position, he is young and promising, and his appearance is outstanding, and many women in the palace are willing to be close to him." ”
"That's why An Ge won't take a fancy to him." The queen then took out the newspaper she had at hand and said, "It can be seen from what she has written that what she wants is good only for her, not for everyone." ”
Zicui also felt justified and nodded.
After a pause, the queen asked again: "But there are still men next to him who are close to An Ge?" ”
Zicui saw that the queen was really interested in An Ge's marriage, thought about it carefully, and replied: "There is also Concubine Ning's younger brother Yuan Qilu, Lord Yuan is strong in martial arts, but he is congenitally deficient, and he is not worthy of Lord An." There is also the Seventh Prince, the Seventh Prince's pursuit of Lord An some time ago is known to the whole capital, but Niangniang also knows him, so the slave and maid don't say much, and besides, it seems that there is no more. ”
The queen thought about it for a while and said, "After thinking about it, it is more appropriate for Jinglan." ”
Zicui hesitated a little: "The Jing family is also considered a world."
The family is big, Lord An Youping is just a five-grade Zhizhou, and his family background is simple, will he ......?"
"It's useless for us to talk too much here." The queen interrupted her and said, "You go and ask Concubine Li to think of a way, pass the mansion to report this bright face, send An Ge to the general's mansion, and tell the two of them to get along well." ”
Zicui responded, "Yes." ”
An Ge hadn't slept all night, and at this time he was feeling lightheaded, and wanted to hurry back to his residence to sleep for a while.
When she walked out of Yikun Palace and walked to the Imperial Garden, An Ge happened to see Xia Lanyan pulling Concubine Ning to speak, she didn't bother to step forward to greet the two, so she hid behind the shade of the tree first.
Xia Lanyan was full of flattery, and said to Concubine Ning: "It is said that Concubine Ning Niangniang Yanguan Six Palaces, concubine body looks at where is this Yanguan Six Palaces, it is clearly the Yanguan world, there is no better woman than Concubine Ning in the whole Dali, Niangniang, the concubine's father brought some good bamboo leaves from his hometown, I don't know that Concubine Ning is cute and drinking?" How about the concubine being sent to Concubine Ning's palace later? ”
Concubine Ning's attitude was indifferent, but she didn't refuse, and said: "This palace doesn't particularly like to drink, but a few brothers in this palace are still good, and my sister's kindness will not shirk." ”
Xia Lanyan was pleasantly surprised: "Okay, my sister will send it to my sister when I turn around." ”
After saying this, Concubine Ning said that there was still something to do, so she would take a step first, and Xia Lanyan continued to enjoy the flowers in the imperial garden. An Ge didn't want to meet her, but now that he saw her dangling and never leaving, he had to walk over quickly, planning to walk away while she wasn't paying attention.
Unexpectedly, Xia Lanyan still noticed it, and stopped her: "Hey, which palace are you in?" ”
An Ge pretended not to hear it and continued to walk forward, Xia Lanyan got angry and gave the palace maid who was waiting next to her a look, and the palace maid immediately stepped forward to grab An Ge and scolded: "Are you deaf?" Didn't you hear my mother call you? ”
Empress? I haven't heard the seal yet, so I dare to call my mother?
An Ge lowered his head and chuckled lightly, then bowed and said, "This lady, I am in a hurry to leave the palace and have important matters, so please ask the mother to make it convenient." ”
Xia Lanyan became angry when she heard her tone, raised her eyebrows, and said angrily: "Which of your subordinates in the palace actually dares to call yourself 'me' instead of 'slave'?" Are you not taking me seriously? ”
An Ge sighed lightly, with Xia Lanyan's character, it was a miracle that he could live in the palace for so long.
Not to mention that she is not a person in the palace, even if she is, there are expensive female officials in the palace, even if she is not a female official, the slaves and maids in the queen's palace and the emperor's palace don't need to give her face, right?
An Ge didn't speak, but she often came to the palace, and some palace people knew her, so a palace maid recognized An Ge and whispered to Xia Lanyan: "Niangniang, she is not a palace person, she is an An Ge An who is on an errand in the Di Bao Mansion." ”
"Oh? Is it an official? Is it big or not? When Xia Lanyan heard that it was an official, she immediately panicked, and hurriedly asked the palace maid in a low voice.
The palace maid shook her head: "I heard that the slave maid has no grade. ”
When Xia Lanyan heard this, she became even more arrogant, and pointed at An Ge and said, "What qualifications do you have to run around in the Imperial Garden?" Do you want to meet the emperor by chance and seduce the emperor? Hum! Shameless! ”
…… Don't you want that kind of man to give her well!
Xia Lanyan saw that she hung her head and didn't speak, so she was even more angry and stepped forward
Step wanted to see what she looked like, but was attracted by the hairpin in her hair, which was very simple, silver-white, and only inlaid with a large black pearl at the top.
Xia Lanyan's family has money, and she has been accustomed to cherished things since she was a child, and she can see at a glance that this black pearl looks ordinary, but in fact it is a rare thing that money can't buy, her eyes rolled, and she immediately pointed at An Ge and said: "Come on, arrest her, she actually dares to steal things in the palace!" How could you, a petty official who is not in the stream, have such a rare black pearl? It must have been stolen from some lady in the palace! ”
As she spoke, her palace maids really stepped forward to arrest An Ge.
This hairpin An Ge didn't pay attention to it, when the queen's palace maid groomed her, Zicui personally brought it in, saying that it was rewarded by the queen's mother, An Ge saw that it was not very public, more restrained, so he didn't excuse himself.
I didn't expect it to be so valuable......
An Ge twisted her eyebrows, if she still swallowed her anger, this Xia Lanyan would climb on her head, so she raised her head and said, "I see who dares!" No matter how hard I don't enter the stream, I am also an official of the imperial court, how can I allow you, a concubine who has not yet heard the title, to be humiliated at will? ”
Xia Lanyan originally thought that she was a bully, but she was shocked and faceless for a while, and then she looked at An Ge's eyes, how did she look at it and feel familiar......
"Oh, I remember! No wonder Fang kept his head down and didn't dare to look at me, it turned out to be you! You, the undrafted girl who was not favored by the emperor, are still lying in the palace with a shy face at the moment and haven't left? Xia Lanyan pointed at her and laughed, "Do you still think that you may be favored by the emperor?" ”
Xia Lanyan didn't know much about the palace election at the beginning, she had an impression of An Ge, purely because there were so many show girls who failed in the palace election, and when she came out alone, she was sent out by the guardian, so when she left, many people looked at An Ge a few more times.
At this time, she only felt that she was selected, and An Ge was defeated, so she was better than An Ge, pinching her waist and pointing at her to laugh at her, but she didn't know that many palace maids in the palace were also undrafted girls.
When they heard this, what did they think?
An Ge sighed secretly, estimating that Xia Lanyan's life in the future would not be too easy.
Xia Lanyan scolded that it was not enough, and she stepped forward to grab An Ge's hairpin, not to say that An Ge was a thief, he stole something in the palace, and he wanted to take the hairpin to the emperor to complain.
An Ge originally just wanted to go home and sleep quickly, but seeing her so rude at this moment, and remembering her bad behavior of forcing others to death when she was with the show girls, she was also a little angry, protecting the hairpin on her hair, deliberately saying something unclear, stimulating her: "This is a royal gift, how can I give it to you?" ”
As soon as she heard that it was a "royal gift", Xia Lanyan's instinctive reaction was that this hairpin was given to her by the emperor.
She, the concubine who was officially selected to enter the harem, except for the first day of entering the palace and the other three received some unremarkable rewards, she has not received any rewards from the emperor so far, and why did the eliminated one in front of her take such a good reward from the emperor?
Xia Lanyan was even more angry, and she didn't want to think about what kind of place this was, so she angrily ordered her palace maid: "Tie me up this slut who seduced the emperor!" ”
The palace maid under her command had no choice but to obey her orders and stepped forward to grab An Ge to death.
Before An Ge could resist, a voice suddenly came from behind him: "Are they crazy!" Playing in the Imperial Garden, what a system! ”
