In the scorching summer of the tenth year of Yongzheng, a stream of gossip suddenly gushed out like boiling water, sweeping the Old Summer Palace.

The big palace maid Nongyun stepped forward and said: "Niangniang, now there is a rumor in the palace that Gao promised to harm the Lang nobles to fall into the water, but it was actually the instigation of Concubine Ning. These words came from Han Yunxuan. ”

Yao Jiaxin raised her eyebrows, this Gao promised that she was punished by her to be grounded in Han Yunxuan, and she was not released until the end of last year. I didn't expect such a good show to happen again.

"If she has real evidence, she would have come to the palace to overturn the case a long time ago, why should she take a walk and spread the rumors on her own?" Yao Jiaxin said lightly, but--Yijie Xiaoxiao, how dare she slander the concubine of the first palace, it is obviously instigated.

Thinking like this, Concubine Ning came to Bitong Academy with a hot sweat, activated the fire and broke in, "Imperial Concubine Niangniang!" ”

Yao Jiaxin raised her hand to reassure: "Don't be impatient, it's just a rumor." ”

As she spoke, she pointed to the embroidery pier next to her, "Let's sit down and rest for a while." ”

Concubine Ning realized that she hadn't saluted yet, and hurriedly bent her knees to make a blessing, "Xie Niangniang gave me a seat." Then he sat down.

The chilled mulberry chrysanthemum tea is the most heat-relieving reliever, Concubine Ning took the herbal tea offered by the palace maid and drank it quickly, and her breath was more even, but her eyes were still full of anger, "Niangniang, that Gao family just promised a little, how could she have the courage to slander her concubine so much?" It must be the command of the concubine! ”

Speaking of this, Concubine Ning couldn't help but grit her teeth, "I know that the Hai clan is not a peaceful person!" ”

Yao Jiaxin was speechless, wasn't that what you provoked? You are allowed to calculate others, and you are not allowed to fight back?

Yao Jiaxin said lightly: "Everything must be evidence-based. ”

Concubine Ning's eyes were full of hatred, "Could it be that the concubine was slandered by that slut in vain?" ”

Yao Jiaxin could hear that the "slut" in Concubine Ning's mouth was not a high promise, but a pure concubine.

She sighed, "Since the gossip came out of Han Yunxuan's walk, this palace will punish Gao and curb the rumors." ”

However, this kind of punishment is not what Concubine Ning wants, but Concubine Ning also knows that she has no evidence, Concubine Ning bit her teeth and said: "Niangniang, once the concubine was confiscated, she was not as docile and peaceful as before, and she dared to bully Concubine Zhao in front of you before!" This Zhao Concubine has always had no grievances with the concubine! ”

Zhao Concubine and Cui Concubine do not have a deep hatred, but they are not without festivals. As newcomers to the palace in the same session, they are naturally competitors to each other, and Zhao Concubine's temperament is not gentle enough, and she has always boasted that she was born in a famous Manchurian family, and she looks down on the concubines from humble backgrounds, even if the concubines are from the Han military banner family, they are still the objects of Zhao Concubine's contempt.

So there is a bit of a festival between the two, but the Hai family has always been humble to Concubine Zhao, and now that Concubine Cui has a son, her waist is stiff, so she naturally refuses to be polite to Concubine Zhao, who has no children and no favor.

Concubine Ning said in a low voice: "I'm afraid Niangniang doesn't know yet, Wangxian Pavilion has added several palace maids with outstanding appearances!" On the day when Bao Buqi is not ready, there will be another official woman in this palace, and there will be a promise! ”

Yao Jiaxin's face suddenly sank, "Is there such a thing?!" "—His Majesty the Fourth Master told her...... Is it not paying attention, or is it ......

Concubine Ning was secretly happy, it turned out that the imperial concubine cared about this the most...... But the imperial concubine obviously takes great care of the Lang nobles.

Pressing the doubts in her heart, Concubine Ning hurriedly nodded: "The concubines don't dare to lie, this spring's small election of the Internal Affairs Office, there are many palace maids, and the new palace maids added to the concubines are all good-looking, among them is called 'Yingxiang', whose appearance is not inferior to that of a nobleman!" ”

Not inferior to the nobles......

Yao Jiaxin suddenly showed a strange look.

Well...... Well, Lang Guiren is indeed beautiful, use him as a reference - no problem.

Concubine Ning said quietly: "The tenth elder brother is still in infancy, and the concubine is so calculating, I'm afraid that the plan is not small!" ”

Yao Jiaxin: Concubine Ning is really committed to sowing discord.

It's just that the concubine cultivates the beautiful palace maids around her - it really makes her a little unhappy.

Yao Jiaxin actually understands that the concubine is not so ambitious for the time being, and the concubine just wants to compete for favor. The concubine's appearance after giving birth is not as good as before, so she has the heart to support the newcomer - this is a common thing in the palace.

Didn't Concubine Ning also cultivate palace maids back then? It's today's high promise.

"This palace knows what to do." Yao Jiaxin said lightly.

The next day, on the tenth day, the nobles and concubines gathered again in Bitong Academy to say goodbye.

In the past, it was the Lang nobleman Jia who was verbally "cared for" by the concubines the most, but today the focus has changed.

Concubine Cui had a gentle smile on her white face, "Imperial Concubine Niangniang, Han Yunxuan's Gao promised to go to the concubine to apologize again and again, and the concubine looked at her with remorse, can the mother allow Gao to promise to return to live in Wangxian Pavilion?" ”

Sitting on the first chair on the right side of the bottom, Concubine Ning's old face turned blue in an instant.

Yao Jiaxin glanced at Concubine Cui deeply, "If she really knows repentance, why would she go around the rumors and slander Concubine Ning?" ”

Concubine Cui's smile stiffened, "The imperial concubine has not been checked yet, how do you know that it is slander?" ”

Yao Jiaxin smiled: "Just like when Gao's illness was threatened and instructed by you, there is no real evidence, and this palace will naturally cure it and determine that it is slander." ”

Concubine Cui choked in her throat, and she was speechless to refute for a while, but she was still unconvinced in her heart, the Gao family was indeed slandering at the beginning, but now the rumors in the garden are true! Concubine Cui couldn't help but speak again: "But-"

"Nothing good, 'but'!" Yao Jiaxin unceremoniously interrupted Concubine Cui's words, "This palace also thought that the Gao family knew that she was wrong, so she was lifted from the ban last year, and now it seems that this palace should not let her out!" In that case, let her remain grounded! Those who walk and spread rumors in the garden, no matter who is in the palace, will be expelled from the palace by wisp! ”

Yao Jiaxin's disposition was actually very merciful, the Gao family was just grounded again, and his position did not change - after all, he was the last to agree, wouldn't it be an official woman to descend again? As for those palace maids and eunuchs with broken mouths, they will be taken away, anyway, there is no shortage of slaves in the palace.

The round face of the concubine turned three points white in an instant.

Yao Jiaxin said: "If you want to convict people, it is not rumors, but evidence!" This is how the palace has governed the harem for many years! Does Concubine Cui think that this palace is wrong? ”

Hearing this, the concubine stood up in panic and bent her knees: "The concubine doesn't dare, the mother is fair, and the concubine is respectful." ”

Yao Jiaxin said lightly: "That's good, concubine, you just sealed the concubine, and your mind is more on the tenth elder brother, don't think about those who don't have it!" "-Ma Dan, if you dare to rob a man with your mother, it depends on whether you have the wood and the ability!

The concubine's heart was shocked, shouldn't the imperial concubine know something? ?

At this time, the noble man Lang who was sitting at the bottom suddenly smiled: "Concubine Niangniang didn't just want Gao to promise to go back to the Immortal Pavilion, but she also personally visited the concubine's residence a few days ago, and very earnestly invited the concubine to live in the Wangxian Pavilion." It seems that the concubine is bored and wants to find a companion. ”
