Chapter 62: The Newcomer Enters the Palace
Before, she was worried that if she left, the eldest prince would not be able to take care of her, but the emperor said that he would have a way, but she didn't expect him to directly allow the eldest prince to come to the harem to find her.
Fortunately, she also taught the eldest prince to read and write by the prince's side in the past, and there is no better excuse than this.
"That's good, you will come over often in the future, let Xiao Kiko know in advance, and I will prepare your favorite snacks for you."
After eating a piece of snack, the eldest prince clapped his hands, "I heard that my father accepted three more concubines into the palace today, I thought that you must be uncomfortable, and I came to accompany you, not to eat snacks!" ”
Su Youyi was stunned, she didn't expect the eldest prince to say such a thing.
She couldn't cry or laugh, "Am I uncomfortable? I'm not uncomfortable. The three new concubines accepted by the emperor all have backgrounds, two are the daughters of upright officials, and the other is the eldest lady of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion. By the way, she should be your cousin, have you seen this Jiang nobleman? ”
The eldest prince shook his head, and seemed not happy about his cousin's entry into the palace.
"She is a woman, she should have been raised in the boudoir since she was a child, I have never seen it, and I don't want to see it. What does a good cousin do to enter the palace to be the concubine of her father, does she also want to seize the position of the queen mother? ”
Su Youyi knew that the queen mother he was talking about was not the current queen, but his biological mother, the first queen.
She was so frightened that she glanced out, motioned for Xiao Kizi to guard in the courtyard, and then looked at the eldest prince, "Who did the eldest prince listen to?" The first queen is the emperor's original concubine, and her status is unmatched, and no one can seize it. ”
The eldest prince raised his head, "Really? Don't lie to me, my father has a new queen and a new son-in-law. There is also Concubine Xian calling for wind and rain in the palace, and Concubine Hui also wants to convince me to be my mother, can this cousin of Lao Shizi not want to? Isn't this called preempting the position of the queen mother? ”
The eldest prince usually looks naughty and playful, and occasionally says a serious sentence or two, which is precocious and scary.
Only then did Su Youyi understand why he didn't have a good impression of Jiang Guiren.
It turned out that he was worried that Jiang Guiren, like Concubine Hui, curryed favor with him in order to seize the position of the first empress.
Finally appeased the eldest prince, after he left, Su Youyi estimated that the time was almost up, and ordered Shuya to send the prepared gift to the two of them.
"I think they also know that I have just been canonized, and I don't have any good things in my hands, so I guess it's a little heart."
Shuya looked at the two almost identical gifts on the table, and recited the Buddha in her mouth, "Amitabha, this is not a good thing, so what is a good thing?" ”
Su Youyi picked out all the treasures sent by the Internal Affairs Office, such as Hangzhou silk clothing, the one with the apricot blossom was given to Su Promise, and the one from Bihe was given to Sima Promise, and she herself had only two horses left.
Su Youyi said: "Although the person's position is low, in the end, it is the official lady who is from the eunuch, and the gift is too thin, and people may not be able to see it." I don't want to give it too much, so as not to be misunderstood that I want to form a gang. ”
You have to be particular about giving gifts in the palace, this gift is not light, it is not heavy, it cannot surpass the queen and the virtuous concubine above, and it is not possible to lose your identity.
Shuya nodded, "Speaking of which, this Su promised to have the same surname as the nobleman, maybe it's still his own family." That Jiang nobleman's side ......"
"Jiang Guiren doesn't have to send it, she has the same position as me, but her background is a lot taller. If I give her something, I don't have to make her think I've slapped her in the face. ”
"How can there be such a person who doesn't know what to do?"
Shuya said, and said: "Okay, she lives in Xianfu Palace, which is the territory of Concubine Xian, let's not go if we don't go." ”
Saying that, Cuiwei took out the two gifts and sent them to the two new promisers of Yonghe Palace.
Su Youyi heard her mention Concubine Xian, and couldn't help but say, "Isn't there any movement from Concubine Xian?" ”
"No, except for the big rewards for the three newcomers like the queen mother, there is nothing else. I heard that the reward given by Concubine Xian is comparable to that of the queen, and she is really not respectful at all. ”
Shuya couldn't help but slander, didn't Su Youyi say that giving gifts in this palace is also a science, and those with low ranks can't exceed those with high ranks?
Concubine Xian's position is lower than that of the queen, but she dares to compete like this, does she read books and doesn't understand the rules?
Su Youyi picked up the teacup and said lightly: "Rules are something for the weak to abide by, and the strong can choose to abide by or not to obey." Look at the emperor, who dares to set rules for him? ”
Although no one dared, the emperor never did anything out of line.
Concubine Xian, the so-called strong man, what is compared to the emperor?
The next morning to the queen's Changchun. Gong please An, Su Youyi saw these three newcomers with her own eyes.
She went to Changchun. When the palace was in the palace, the two new promises and Fu Changzai and Bai promised had already arrived, and Bai promised and Su promised to chat happily, and the two looked a little alike.
They are all Jiangnan women with the same weak willow and wind posture, they all look like they have read books, and they are better to talk about with the same position.
It's Fu Chang who promised that Sima that he had nothing to say, one was steady and introverted, and the other was babbling, and it seemed that the donkey's head was not in the horse's mouth.
"Nobleman, that Jiang nobleman hasn't arrived yet."
Su Youyi raised her eyebrows, the new person who entered the palace should have come first, even if her position was higher than promised. Always with them, it should have arrived a long time ago.
It seems that this Jiang nobleman is not good at stubble, and he dares to put on a show of style to the queen as soon as he comes.
When everyone in the courtyard saw Su Youyi, they hurriedly greeted Su Youyi, Su Youyi and the two newcomers met, and Sima agreed to say: "Zhaogui is so beautiful in life, like a bodhisattva in the temple!" ”
Su Youyi was stunned, she hadn't heard such words in the palace for a long time, and this tone was very similar to that of the eldest prince.
Someone behind him pulled the corner of Sima Cheng's clothes, and it was Su who promised.
When she saw Su Youyi looking at her, she was embarrassed to be blessed, "Don't be surprised, Sister Sima is younger and has a lively nature, so she didn't mean to offend." ”
Sima looked back at her suspiciously, not knowing what he had done wrong.
Su Youyi smiled generously and said: "Don't be polite, Sima promised to praise me, how could I feel offended?" One of you is well-mannered, the other is innocent and lively, and it really doesn't look like you entered the palace at the same time. ”
Su agreed to hear this, and couldn't help but look up at her in surprise.
She had long heard that the emperor had just sealed a noble person a few days ago, and she was a palace maid who had a meritorious service in the river, and she thought that she was treated like this because of this merit, but she didn't expect to hear about Su Youyi's previous affairs after entering the palace.
It turned out that the emperor had long taken a fancy to her and wanted to make her a promise, but she refused the emperor, so she became a celebrity in the palace, and no one in the palace knew about her.
It's just that for some reason, he sacrificed himself to protect him, and he was named a noble person in one fell swoop, and he got such a good title.
I heard that this title was drafted by the queen herself, and this noble man relied on the emperor and queen behind him, and there was a big prince, but he didn't care about his identity at all.
Su promised to think in his heart, this person is really amazing.
