Chapter 835: Keeping to Your Duty

That sounds a little sour.

In normal times, Queen Zhou would definitely comfort Concubine Li Xian, and maybe she would give half of the small jar of jasmine tea she cherished to Concubine Li Xian.

But today she just smiled, picked up the teacup and took a sip, not planning to make a sound.

Concubine Li Xian was a little embarrassed to see that she didn't talk, and she didn't want Xue to take her words and said, "I didn't get it either." I don't think it's that the queen mother doesn't love us, it's just that things are limited, so don't complain about the virtuous concubine. ”

Xue said with a smile: "The eldest princess is a coquette, and she is about to get married, what is the good thing is naturally to do her best to do the young lady who has not come out of the cabinet first, and then give it to her daughter-in-law, do you say this is the reason?" The queen mother is the lord of the middle palace, and her status is noble, and she can only get such a small point, not to mention our identity? ”

Concubine Li Xian's face was slightly pale.

Xue compared himself with Concubine Li Xian's identity, one is a prince and a princess, and the other is the emperor's concubine, and it is not noble.

Dudu brought out Queen Zhou.

Concubine Li Xian didn't feel comforted at all, but felt that she was beating herself.

She was pointing out that as a concubine, she shouldn't have snatched anything from the queen of the middle palace......

Concubine Li Xian suddenly understood.

No wonder the Xue family refused to go to Changchun Palace to see her, but asked Queen Zhou to invite her to Kunning Palace, where she was waiting for her.

I think she has used some means to flatter and invite favors recently, Queen Zhou can't stand it, and she can't say it herself, so she uses the Xue family to beat her......

Empress Zhou, who had never spoken, smiled and said, "It's okay, if you like it, drink a few more." If it weren't for the fact that the emperor also likes to come to me to drink this tea, I should have given it to the two of you. ”

"The queen is willing to send it, and we don't dare to accept it."

Xue glanced at Concubine Li Xian, "This is the grace of the queen mother, if it weren't for the queen's filial piety and thoughtfulness as a daughter-in-law, how could the queen mother remember you in her heart?" It should belong to the queen's mother, we dare not ask for it. ”

The Xue family didn't dare to ask for it, but Concubine Li Xian might not dare to.

Seeing that Queen Zhou was looking at her, Concubine Li Xian had no choice but to say: "Yes, such a good tea, the queen should keep it for herself." ”

Empress Zhou looked at her silently and smiled.

In this round, she won.

……

The three of them chatted for a while in Kunning Palace, but Concubine Li Xian was absent-minded all the time, like sitting on pins and needles.

Xue and Queen Zhou chatted happily.

This scene is completely different from the previous in the boudoir.

Concubine Li Xian is well-read and talented, she used to say more and Xue listened more, but today it is the other way around.

Xue Shi chatted and chatted, and suddenly smiled, "I suddenly remembered that I heard a joke last time I went to the Imperial Garden, do you want to hear it?" ”

"What is it?"

Xue glanced at Concubine Li Xian, "This matter is related to Concubine Xian, Concubine Xian promised me not to be angry, so I dare to say it." ”

Concubine Li Xian suddenly came back to her senses and couldn't help but wonder, "What is going on?" I'm not angry, you say. ”

"It's about the title of Concubine Xian."

Xue said: "Last time I was in the imperial garden, the queen mother asked me to take me to the garden. I was on the edge of the flowers in the garden, and I saw two lazy little palace maids talking, talking about the title of the virtuous concubine. said that this title is exactly the same as a criminal concubine in the first emperor's dynasty, and coincidentally, that one happens to be surnamed Li. ”

When Concubine Li Xian heard this, she immediately felt excited.

The sin concubine of the first imperial dynasty, Li......

She knew the past and the present, and when she thought about it, she remembered, "But the daughter of the powerful Li Ge Lao, Concubine Li Xian?" That's not the second prince's ......"

Xue interrupted her lightly, "Our prince's mother is a noble concubine. The Li family has been removed from the clan after being convicted, and it has nothing to do with our prince. But it's also because of the prince that I listened to it there a little more, does Concubine Xian know where your title came from? ”

Concubine Li Xian paused, her brows already furrowed into Sichuan characters.

She has always felt that her title is very good, both dignified and decent, and in line with her own temperament, but she didn't expect it to be so unlucky, and the sin concubine of the first emperor dynasty is heavy.

She said angrily: "Where did it come from?" ”

Xue Shi talked about what he had seen and heard, "The two little palace maids said that when the position and title of the concubine were determined, the queen had not yet entered the palace, and the queen mother was in the imperial garden, and there was no one in charge of the harem, so the emperor did it himself." The emperor himself was too lazy to care about such trivial matters, so he asked the Internal Affairs Office to choose a good word to use, and he didn't even look at it. ”

"As a result, the title was set, and even the holy decree was issued, and the emperor found out that this Concubine Li Xian and that Concubine Li Xian were heavy, but it was too late to change it at this time......"

Concubine Li Xian's brain was dizzy.

She always thought that she was the only one who had a title among the concubines who entered the palace this time, and it was because the emperor took a fancy to her, but she didn't expect that she would just let the Internal Affairs Office plan it casually.

It's just a mistake, and it is exactly the same as a criminal concubine.

She hated itchy.

Xue said: "Listening to those two little palace maids, the concubines in the imperial garden heard that there was another concubine Li Xian in the palace, and they felt uncomfortable. Back then, the concubines suffered a lot from the sins of the sin concubine, so they ......"

She stopped talking just in time.

Originally, she didn't plan to mention this matter, but she was unlucky, and she could use Concubine Li Xian of the previous dynasty to beat the current Concubine Li Xian, this example could not be more suitable.

If Concubine Li Xian heard this, she could always take Concubine Li Xian of the previous dynasty as a lesson from the past, it would be the best.

When Concubine Li Xian heard this, she laughed dryly, "There is such a coincidence in the world, then I am really wronged, and I was hated by the concubines for no reason without doing anything." ”

Empress Zhou comforted: "Concubine Xian doesn't have to worry. You have only been in the palace for a short time, and you will still have a long time to get along with the concubines in the future. As long as you can be diligent and thoughtful, and keep your duty, those concubines will naturally see your goodness after a long time, and they will not be dissatisfied with you because of the coincidence of the title. ”

Be diligent and thoughtful, and keep your duty.

This is Empress Zhou personally beating her.

Concubine Li Xian lowered her head and thought for a long time, then raised her head and met the beautiful eyes of the queen last week.

Her gaze is gentle and dignified, the same as usual, the only difference is that there is more perseverance in it at the moment.

Concubine Li Xian understood.

Empress Zhou has already expressed her attitude, if she continues to do the same as before, it is not clear what Empress Zhou will do.

Although she has slept several times now, she is quite favored by the emperor, but the emperor's favorite is still Queen Zhou, which everyone in the harem can see.

It's not a good thing to fall out at this moment, except for Queen Zhou and Zhao Guiren, she doesn't want to suffer from the enemy.

Concubine Li Xian took a deep breath, stood up immediately, and blessed Queen Zhou, "The concubines will follow the queen's teachings, and they will be diligent and thoughtful in the future, keep their duties, and never dare to do anything that is not in line with the etiquette of the concubines." ”

With this guarantee, Queen Zhou's resolute gaze instantly softened.
