Chapter 3: The Four Great Concubines

Yan Yue slept without even eating dinner, and slept until dawn. When I woke up, I felt refreshed, and I forgot about the punishment of Mama Huang last night. Of course, being a master has the advantages of being a master, some people serve to wash, and some people serve to dress. Moreover, when the belly is hungry, as long as the command is 'pass the meal', the slave will prepare the meal. It's just that dressing today is a problem, and Mama Zhuang has been thinking about it for a long time and has no choice. It is definitely not appropriate to wear a medical woman's costume now, but the costume made by the Internal Affairs Office has not yet been delivered, so after washing up, Mama Zhuang informed Yan Yue of this problem.

"There's nothing to think about, it's just a piece of clothing. Let's wear a doctor's dress. Yan Yue said with a big grin. Compared with those costumes with many decorations, Yan Yue also prefers medical women's clothes. Mama Zhuang just doesn't agree and has no choice, she can't help but let her master wear obscene clothes and pants to go out. When Mama Zhuang was entangled, there was a green bead of Yingyuexuan asking to see. Yingyuexuan is the palace of Wang Meiren, and the green bead is Wang Meiren's personal girl. This time, Wang Meimei and Yan Yue were canonized as Shuyuan Niangniang together.

"The slave maid asked Shuyuan Niangniang to say goodbye, my master specially sent two sets of clothes to Niangniang, this dress was made by the master and never put it on, the master thought that it was about the same size as Yan Niangniang, so he specially ordered the slave and maid to send it to Niangniang." As soon as Lu Zhu entered the hall, he gave a big salute, and then handed over two new dresses as he spoke. This time, Yan Yue really admired Wang Meiren's heart, no matter whether these two sets of clothes fit well or not, whether they look good or not, they really gave it to the right time.

Yan Yue also felt ashamed of it this time, it seemed that Wang Meiren had always taken care of herself. Whether it was the dim sum she gave when she first met, or the mosquito repellent incense she gave herself in the summer, or the maintenance when she destroyed the queen's reward in the Qingtian Palace, no matter what her purpose was, it was a lot of help to Yan Yue in the end. It's just that Yan Yue thought about it for a long time and didn't think of returning the gift, so she could only say thank you a few times.

The arrangement of breakfast made Yan Yue quite satisfied, whether it was pastry Xiaolai or soup, it was delicious. Yan Yue also tasted bird's nest once, which is a treasure to nourish the lungs and nourish yin, and after this meal, Yan Yue ate very satisfied. During this period, Chunhua Qiuyue wanted to come forward to serve the meal, but Yan Yue stopped her. Yan Yue felt that this meal was still comfortable to eat by herself, and what was the point of eating the dishes that others coerced.

"Niangniang, that Mama Huang is still kneeling outside, do you want to take a look." Mama Zhuang waited for Yan Yue to finish eating, and stepped forward to say.

Yan Yue only thought of the matter of Mama Huang at this time, thought of her head held high, and remembered her disapproving eyes when she had words, Yan Yue now realized that it was a kind of contempt from her bones. At this time, looking at Mama Zhuang again, she lowered her head and closed her eyes, her expression was respectful, but she did not have the slightest intention of asking for Mama Huang to intercede. Yan Yue couldn't help but want to laugh, what kind of master with what kind of minions, Mama Huang has served the emperor so she is a little arrogant and arrogant in her bones, and Mama Zhuang has served the queen mother, so she is quite scheming. But no matter what, Yan Yue is also ready to spare Mama Huang, if not for anything else, it is not easy for her to be old.

Yan Yue got up slowly, but heard a noisy sound of footsteps, followed by a neat greeting: "Guifei Niangniang is auspicious." Yan Yue's eyes fell on Mama Zhuang in surprise, but Mama Zhuang was clear. said softly: "I guess it's for Mama Huang's business, let's welcome it out." Forgive the old slave for talking too much, the mother has a plan in her heart to do things, so don't offend the four concubines at once. When she saw the concubine, she had to bow and call herself a concubine. "

Mama Zhuang was expressionless when she said it, but Yan Yue heard the deep meaning. Yan Yue's mind suddenly flashed with those harem dramas that she had seen in the 21st century, as if this harem was an ominous place, always staging a big drama of competing for favor and position. As long as you are in it, you will face deceit and intrigue at any time, and now it seems that this is the case, and Mama Huang was punished yesterday and today she invited the concubine.

Yan Yue now has only one goal in life - to leave the palace. The method was to make Murong Yan disgusted with himself, in his eyes, he had no use value, and took the initiative to let himself go. The way is to self-deprecating and being an ugly woman. However, Yan Yue knew that this Grandma Zhuang was right, no matter what happened to her in the future, these four concubines could not be offended for the time being. If these women rise up and attack them, it is estimated that it will be difficult for them to leave the palace alive. If you can avoid it, you can avoid it, and you really can't avoid it and think of other ways. Yan Yue quickly greeted her accompanied by Mama Zhuang, and sure enough, this was a huge formation, just as Mama Zhuang said, there were four concubines at once.

"The concubine welcomes the concubine." Yan Yue hurriedly bowed her head and saluted, but she didn't hear a response, she felt that a fragrant wind was wafting around her, and the concubines had already crossed Yan Yue to the upper seat and sat down.

The hall was calm for a long time, and the eyes of the four noble concubines swept back and forth on Yan Yue's body for a long time. Maybe these four concubines have heard the name of Yan Yinu before, and they cured the emperor's illness with radish seeds, and cured the queen mother's dragon around her waist with a local dragon. Some time ago, the harem suddenly rumored that this woman had become the emperor's new favorite, and she was suddenly canonized as Shuyuan. Therefore, these four people are all curious about what kind of woman this Yan Yue will be. Just after some staring, the eyes of the four people were obviously a little lost, and the woman in front of them was not as thin as eighteen years old, her face was not only pale, but also had a birthmark on her face. Although her eyes are clear and her nose is straight, the eye-catching birthmark is there, and this woman can't be called beautiful.

Yan Yue took advantage of this effort to take a closer look at the four noble concubines, the four beauties and Yan Yue are almost the same age, respectively wearing orange red, lemon yellow, lake blue, dark green clothes, all of them are pretty, but they have different temperaments, or luxurious and graceful, or quiet and peaceful, or gentle and moving, or calm and arrogant. Yan Yue only knew that these four concubines gave the words Wan, Gu, Chang, and Qing respectively, taking the meaning of the words eternal and evergreen. As for who these four people are concubines, Yan Yue can't tell the difference. However, I heard that among these four people, Wan Guifei is domineering and exposed, and there are more stewards; Gu Guifei likes Buddhism, is quiet and peaceful, and does not ask much questions; The eldest concubine is gentle and has the taste of a little woman, while the young concubine is arrogant and cold, and she has a fight with the emperor Murong Yan.

"Sister doesn't have to be formal, sit down quickly. The emperor has ordered someone to inform our sister that before the canonization ceremony of my sister is held, my sister is not bound by this harem etiquette. A pleasant voice sounded, and her intuition told Yan Yue that this woman must be Wan Guifei.

"It's not the four of us who bothered my sister this morning. It's just that I heard someone say early this morning that Mama Huang didn't know what she did wrong last night and was punished for kneeling all night. Our sisters thought that Mama Huang was an old man who had served the emperor after all, and now that she was older, her body and bones were not as good as before, if there were three long and two short kneeling this night, if she disturbed the emperor at that time, it would seem that the harem management of our four sisters was not effective. Of course, Sister Yan should know that the most unbearable thing for the emperor is the suffering of the people around him. As soon as a noble concubine sat down, a large number of words flew into Yan Yue's ears. Since the vacancy of the queen's position, these four have been co-managing the harem. Because there is no priority, the four of them dare not be offside, nor do they dare to shirk.

"Back to the concubine Niangniang, the concubine didn't want to punish Mama Huang, but now the concubine Niangniang inquired, and the concubine can only tell the truth. The concubine was fortunate that the emperor was canonized as Shuyuan by the grace of heaven, and the concubine also knew that with the appearance and conduct of the concubine, she would not be able to deserve the position of this Shuyuan. But since the emperor is gracious, the concubine can only occupy this position. But Mama Huang remembered that the concubine had a low status before, and even relied on the merit of the former servant to play the concubine as an ignorant child, so the concubine punished Mama Huang for the sake of royal face. It's just that I didn't expect this to alarm the four concubines, and the concubines were terrified...... "Yan Yue said that, her voice trembled, tears flashed in her eyes, and she heard that the ten thousand concubines were speechless immediately. Yan Yue secretly marveled in her heart, could it be that she also had the talent of gong dou performance.

"In this way, our sister almost wronged my sister." Wan Guifei smiled and nodded. Just after Yan Yue's heart was relieved, she suddenly tightened her face and said, "The current slave is really cunning, and he dares to arrange the discomfort of his master." Come on, bring the little slave of Yijiang and Mama Huang up, and the sisters will be angry with their sisters. "

Yan Yue was stunned and then realized, just as Yan Yue expected at first, it was really Bi Rongxuan's minions who betrayed him. That Yijiang gave his name yesterday, and today it is good, so he sold himself, what a river of bad water flowing outward! As for this Wan Guifei, she seems to be a little treacherous, she has already said that she has wronged herself, and while comforting herself with good words, she escorted the slave to the main hall and reprimanded herself.

In Yan Yue's thoughts, Mama Huang and Na Yijiang were escorted to the palace. Before anyone else could speak, Concubine Wan Guiji angrily reprimanded: "Mama Huang, you have been in the palace for thirty years, and you have served the emperor. Pingyu is the main palace, and I also respect you for three points. But you have been spoiled too much and forgotten who you are. kicked his nose and face in front of the master, and the evil slave bullied the master...... "As soon as Concubine Wan's words came out, Mama Huang shook into a ball, knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing, crying and shouting wrongedly.

"The old slave is only responsible for teaching Shuyuan Niangniang's palace rules and etiquette, and truthfully said that Niangniang's words and deeds are inappropriate, and Niangniang said that the old slave is unfaithful to the master. Now the old slave is difficult to argue, and he can only prove the innocence of the old slave with death. Mama Huang finished speaking silently, and as soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly stood up and crashed towards the pillars in the hall in the surprise of everyone.

There was a series of exclamations in the hall, and before Yan Yue could react, a figure quickly blocked in front of Mama Huang. Mama Huang hit her head on the wall, I don't know if it was the cause of her anger or the force of the collision, Mama Huang fainted under the collision.

"This, this...... Come on, bring Mama Huang to Xiyue Palace, and quickly summon the imperial doctor to Xiyue Palace. Wan Guifei quickly arranged, and then looked at Yan Yue, who was standing speechlessly, and said: "Mama Huang is old, and this palace is worried that she will look for death and life again when she wakes up and sees Shuyan excitedly, why don't this palace take her away, and then the Internal Affairs Office will send Mama Xi to Birong Xuan, what do the sisters think?"

"What about the Yijiang minions?" This time it was the gentle and lovely eldest concubine who spoke, and she remembered that there was a trembling servant kneeling in this hall.

"Stirring up trouble and stirring up trouble, such a slave cannot be placed in front of the master to wait. Why don't you beat him ten boards and rearrange the errand with the Internal Affairs Office. Do you have any opinions on this arrangement? Gu Guifei thought for a while.

Gu Guifei and Chang Guifei should claim that it is, Qing Guifei still nodded slightly with a cold and arrogant face. After a while, the silence in Birong Xuan was restored. Only Yan Yue stood there in a cold sweat, just now she was just a little bit of herself and became a murderer, thinking back to the scene just now, she still had some heart palpitations, fortunately that person blocked Mama Huang, otherwise the consequences were really unimaginable.

"Are people so grumpy at this age? Is it menopausal syndrome? Yan Yue said to herself, and she secretly had a plan in her heart, next time she would never use a person of Mama Huang's age to kill her.

Mama Zhuang listened to Yan Yue's self-talk, the expression on her face changed and changed, and she finally closed her mouth when she wanted to say something.
