In the afternoon, the concubines entered the palace in turn.

The concubines who entered the palace this time, except for Concubine Li Xian of the Li family, who was the prince of the country, were nobles and two people who were always there, and their status was not high.

In the same way, their mother's family is not strong and wealthy.

After the struggle of the first emperor, Su Youyi and Yuan Zhi had already reached a consensus that the daughters of the powerful ministers should not be included in the harem as much as possible, so as not to cause collusion in the harem of the empress dowager.

Once this happens, there will be no peace in the harem.

Therefore, except for Queen Zhou, the status of these concubines is not high.

After everyone entered the palace, they were first sent to the pre-arranged palace, the palace where these concubines stayed was predetermined by Yuanzhi, and Concubine Li Xian lived in Changchun Palace, which was close to Kunning Palace, which was the residence of the original concubine.

It's just because she has a good relationship with Queen Zhou and has a high position.

The other nobles were always in Chuxiu Palace, and the three of them could be companions together, so as not to be lonely in the palace.

Even if these concubines entered the palace, the harem still seemed very lonely.

Everyone first looked at their respective residences, and the palace people were responsible for placing the cages, and they quickly became idle, and the three of Chuxiu Palace gathered together.

Zhao Guiren pointed to a lively palace not far away, and whispered: "I heard that since the wedding of the emperor and the queen yesterday, the queen mother has been resting in the Yongshou Palace, and has not yet left the palace to return to the imperial garden. You say, should we go and see the Queen Mother first? ”

Chuxiu Palace is not far from Yongshou Palace, but looking at the weather alone is a world of difference.

The three of them have no cards, even if they are new to the palace, this Chuxiu Palace feels deserted.

But there are people coming and going all day long on the side of Yongshou Palace, and there are countless palace people who have passed through Chuxiu Palace alone, not to mention people who have passed from other directions.

The Queen Mother is different.

The three young women were envious in their hearts, but they couldn't envy it, where could there be such a good blessing like the queen mother?

Now I just hope to be favored by the emperor as soon as possible, which is a great luck.

"It's good to meet the Queen Mother, but it's ...... Shouldn't I have met the queen first? ”

The two of them were weakly giving their opinions, and the nobleman snorted with sneer.

Since they were both selected as concubines two years ago, they have been secretly competing with each other.

Originally, they were young ladies from different official families, they had a low status, and Miss Zhou had a high status, so there was nothing to compare.

But once they are all selected as concubines, then no one is more noble than others.

Therefore, this Zhao Guiren has always tried his best to compare with Miss Zhou, and behind his back, he also asked his family to invite his grandmother who came out of the palace in the early years to teach her etiquette, and she is bound to earn a piece of the world after entering the palace.

But where did you think that as soon as Zhou Shoufu died, the Queen Mother directly announced Miss Zhou as the queen when Zhou Shoufu was dying, and since then she has broken off the idea of the rest of the young ladies who were selected as concubines.

The thought is broken, but the unconvinced in the heart can't be broken.

In Zhao Guiren's opinion, Miss Zhou can be the queen because of the death of her hard-working grandfather, and the queen mother will pity them for the Zhou Mansion.

Now that Qian Changzai and Sun Changzai proposed to visit the queen first, she didn't feel good in her heart, "You are confused, is it the queen mother or the queen?" Although the queen is the main mother, the queen mother is our elder. Could it be that seeing that Yongshou Palace is in front of us, we don't even say hello? ”

This sounds a little reasonable, but I always feel that there is something strange.

The two Chang Zai were hesitating, and suddenly saw a little eunuch outside, "Hello masters." Our master, Concubine Xian, sent a servant to ask, and asked if the three masters had packed up? ”

"It turned out to be someone from Concubine Xian's palace."

The three of them hurriedly said hello, "We've all cleaned up, I don't know what Concubine Xian Niangniang commands?" ”

Everyone only entered the palace today, and the three of them didn't even know what the names of the minions under their hands were, and Concubine Li Xian was already able to summon people to interrogate.

is worthy of being the daughter of the country's priest wine.

The three of them were secretly shocked in their hearts, so they listened to the little eunuch say: "Concubine Xian said that if the three of them are cleaned up, they will go with her to meet the queen mother, otherwise it will be disrespectful." ”

The three of them were hesitating whether to meet the Queen Mother or the Queen first, and when they heard the eunuch's words, the two Chang breathed a sigh of relief.

They have a low rank and no great talent, and after entering the palace, they follow the high-ranking concubines to do things, which is always right.

Concubine Li Xian took the idea to visit the queen first, even if she was wrong, she couldn't blame them.

The two of them were about to go with the little eunuch, when they heard Zhao Guiren say something to stop them, "Hey, wait a minute-"

Everyone looked at her, Zhao Guiren pursed his lips, raised his slender finger and pointed in the direction of Yongshou Palace, "Father-in-law, ask me, what is the place there?" ”

The eunuch looked in the direction of people coming and going, and he didn't need to identify it carefully, and he knew that Zhao Guiren was asking about Yongshou Palace, "That's Yongshou Palace, where the Queen Mother lives temporarily." ”

"The Queen Mother is there!"

Zhao Guiren pretended to be surprised, "That being the case, we, the concubines who have just arrived, should go to see the Queen Mother first." The elders and the young are respectful and orderly, if we go to meet the queen first, won't it seem rude to us? ”

The little eunuch was stunned in embarrassment.

Zhao Guiren moved out of the elder and younger, he couldn't refute it, whether it was the elder or the younger, it should be the queen mother's preciousness.

But the new concubine just entered the palace to meet the queen, this is the rule of all dynasties, and when Concubine Li Xian ordered him, he also meant according to the rules, and now he ......

Seeing that he didn't speak, Zhao Guiren knew that he was hesitating, so he said: "This father-in-law has to think clearly, does Concubine Xian know that the Queen Mother is in the palace, but still insists on going to see the queen first, or does she not know that the Queen Mother is in the palace, so let's go to see the queen together?" ”

The little eunuch can't say this well.

Although he is a person in Concubine Li Xian's palace, after all, it is the first day to serve the new master, and he has not been able to find out the master's temper.

Hearing Zhao Guiren's words, he hurriedly said: "Since the noble man said so, the slave will go back to tell Concubine Xian Niangniang first, and see what Concubine Xian Niangniang means." ”

Zhao Guiren fought a beautiful battle and raised his head proudly, "Then father-in-law, go quickly." ”

I didn't want the little eunuch to hurry back to Changchun Palace to ask Concubine Li Xian, but he provoked the beautiful woman to raise her eyebrows, and scolded her, "Confused, you came back like this?" ”

Concubine Li Xian had already dressed up, waiting for the little eunuch in the palace to bring the three nobles, and then everyone went to Kunning Palace to greet Queen Zhou.

Unexpectedly, the little eunuch came back alone, and with such a stupid question, she lost her temper, which had always been dignified and generous.

The people of Changchun Palace finally understood that this dignified and virtuous master was not a soft persimmon, and her temper was also very big.

"Throughout the ages, concubines have just entered the palace, and they must first ask the queen of the middle palace to say goodbye. Although the Queen Mother is in the palace, this old practice cannot be abolished. You don't even understand this reasoning, do you want to come back and ask Hongu? ”

She was not angry that the little eunuch was ignorant, but angry that he was easily instigated by Zhao Guiren and delayed the time to ask Queen Zhou for peace.

The little eunuch said: "But Niangniang, the Queen Mother is different after all, she is the Queen Mother who holds the power of the court!" Our emperor has just gotten married, if we don't go to see the queen mother first, wouldn't it be bad? ”

"Confused!"

Concubine Li Xian was angry, "The Queen Mother is such a graceful and generous person, how can she account for such a trivial matter?" Don't say any more, you immediately go and invite Zhao Guiren and the three of them to the middle palace to greet the queen. This palace can't wait for them, let them go by themselves! ”

After that, he took the personal palace maid and hurriedly walked out of Changchun Palace.

Even if you go out now, it's too late......
