Chapter 58: Please Ann Absent
I like or hate a person very much, no matter how much I hide it, it will always show my feet after a long time. Just like Kangxi's liking for Jing Yu, low-key and unassuming, and even a little secretive, he was still seen by people with a keen sense of smell.
Yi Concubine is an extremely sensitive one, and Concubine Hui is no problem.
These women in the palace serve the only object together, and it seems difficult to have a strong sisterhood. A single event could easily reshuffle the old alliance and create new rival groups.
Previously, because of Guo Guiren's affairs, Yi Concubine's good impression of Jing Yusheng was all wiped out by the exclusive favor during this time. The rest is all jealousy and unconvincing - a nobleman who was born as a mere slave and maidservant is now on par with her, and wants to share the emperor's favor.
She came to Yonghe Palace in a hurry, and after greeting the two concubines without a few words, they talked about the concubines who are now being favored.
"I used to be just a cook, but I still have the leisure to learn to play the piano, and it seems that I have been restless since I was a slave." Yi Concubine pursed her lips and said.
"Heh," Concubine Hui said: "Last time, my sister spoke for her vigorously, how can this palace only have a good relationship with her sister, and now I will talk about this?" Concubine Hui deliberately spoke and choked Yi Concubine's face.
"It's not that my sister doesn't know, that time she helped the concubine's sister, and she had a good impression of her, but who knew that it was such a fox, which really didn't make people like it." Yi Concubine stroked her sideburns and said.
"Mingwei is still grateful to her, you came to me, does she know?" Concubine Hui said.
"How many days has she been in the palace? is also a childish mind, and she is not allowed to go into battle at a critical time, she just has a good impression of the Wu Ya clan, and when it comes to the matter, can she still betray my own sister? Yi Concubine had long forgotten that she had called Ming Wei earlier and told her to rest assured that Jing Yu would not tell her what she secretly intended for Master Tong.
And now, because of Kangxi, even if she knows Jing Yu's personality in her heart, she can't be friendly to her at all, but hates her inexplicably.
Concubine Hui snorted and said, "That's the best." Only then did he call someone to serve tea and sighed: "In fact, when the imperial concubine put her under house arrest in the cold palace at the beginning, the palace saw that the emperor attached great importance to her. She frowned and said: "To say that the emperor originally gave her the title of 'virtue', and then put her in Changchun Palace to ask Concubine Rong to take care of her, it is just a praise for her virtue in his heart." And the recent performance seems to be really interested in her. ”
"What my sister said is that the last time the imperial concubine locked her in the cold palace, she had not been given food and drink for nearly five days, what kind of people also saw the king of Hades, who knew that she was safe and sound, wasn't it the emperor who asked someone to take care of her secretly? After all, it was the emperor who released her in the end. Yi Concubine said, not wanting to face this reality, but it was indeed real. That feeling, not to mention how lost and stinging.
After all, in the past few years, the most favored person in the harem, she dared to call herself second, and no one dared to call herself first.
Now, there are people above her.
"As soon as I came out, I couldn't wait to say that I wanted to give her a seal, and now I not only raised the flag for her family, sealed the concubine, but also often went to her palace without turning over the brand, yesterday someone came to report that the emperor took her to the corner tower to watch the stars, the two were intimate, very sticky." Concubine Hui deliberately said this to provoke Yi Concubine.
Yi Concubine really didn't know that the emperor took her to the corner tower to see the meteor yesterday, thinking back to the time when she was favored, the emperor had never done such a careful thing to her, and she felt chills when she thought about it.
"Niangniang has a way to punish the nobles, and she is not afraid to fight with Concubine An, why is there no way to get here in Wuya's family? Previously, she pointed out in court that the 'sunspot' was not done by An Concubine, and pointed out that Chunxiao, who was harmed by Niangniang, died without turning a blind eye, is it just that? ”
Of course, Concubine Hui wouldn't just forget it with her, but now she knows that Concubine Yi wants to provoke her to do it.
It was she who came to the door, of course she wouldn't pick up this stubble, so she picked up the teacup and kept silent.
Yi Concubine said at this time: "Niangniang Associate Sixth Palace is not good to take action in person," the left and right have not teamed up before, and now it doesn't matter who says it first and who says it later? Take 10,000 steps back, who doesn't hold the other party's handle in their hands?
I made a grasshopper on a rope earlier, who did I pretend to be reserved?
"In my opinion, the Queen Mother has just passed her full birthday, if she is absent on the day of the sacrifice, what will the Queen Mother think? What will the emperor, who has always attached the most importance to filial piety, think? Yi Concubine continued.
Concubine Hui understood what she meant, but shirked and said: "Now it's different from the past, the emperor tried to punish her before, and the emperor intervened to rescue her, and this palace didn't dare to take this risk." ”
Yi Concubine said: "What is my sister afraid of, and she is not imprisoned directly," she said: "It's not easy to make people unspeakable?" ”
Seeing that Concubine Hui was suspicious, she hurriedly continued: "If my sister can complete it, why bother my sister?" "She actually calculates a clear account, if she does it herself, she may be heavily fined when the East Window incident happens, and if she joins forces with Concubine Hui, with her ability to turn danger into a disaster every time, she will have several more layers of security.
She lowered her voice and whispered in her ear as she finished her plan.
After hearing this, Concubine Hui rolled her eyes and thought about it, but it was a good way to not take risks.
Isn't Wu Yashi favored, if she comes to her so twice, she doesn't believe that the emperor can still be more affectionate than Jin Jian with her.
Jing Yu is now in the concubine position, so in addition to going to Jingren Palace to ask for peace, he also has to go to Cining Palace to ask for peace for the Queen Mother, and then go to Shoukang Palace to ask for peace for the Queen Mother.
However, Xiaozhuang often exempts everyone from going, but only once on the fifteenth day of the new year.
And on the day of the more important Manchu rituals such as tomorrow's 'sacrificial hall', if the concubines are not extremely special, they must be present in addition to explaining in advance.
On that day, Jing Yu couldn't avoid it, packed up early, had some breakfast, and then took Yueyao and Lily of the Valley out of the palace gate and went to Jingren Palace first.
When passing through the corner of an old palace on the East and West Long Street, a palace maid suddenly rushed out, holding a wooden basin full of strange liquid, which was spilled on Jing Yu at once. The fishy smell came to my nose, and my hands and bodies were all stained with dark red and slightly thick liquid, and I was dirty.
But Yue Yao and Lily of the Valley were shocked, and Yue Yao exclaimed: "Bold, don't you look good when you walk?" Collided with the mother, delayed please be safe, can you afford it? With that, he called Jinbao to take her down.
"Mother, what now? Please, it's almost too late! Yueyao said hurriedly.
Jing Yu didn't have time to reply, turned around and walked back, and said: "I can only go back and change, so that if I go to the queen and the queen mother, I will not only be punished for being rude, but also laughing and generous." ”
When I went back to change my clothes and hurried to Jingren Palace, I learned that the imperial concubine Niangniang had taken everyone to Cining Palace. I went to Cining Palace again, but the door was blocked by the people of the concubine, and said: "Niangniang ordered, today's sacrificial hall, strictly defend Cining Palace, no matter who or anything, you are not allowed to enter." ”
Kangxi has taken all the ministers and princes and cronies out of the palace to worship, and after the palace asked the queen mother to say goodbye, when it is auspicious, the harem concubines will go to Fengxian Hall and Kunning Palace to worship again.
And now Jing Yu can't get in.
She sweated on her forehead outside, and Urzigit saw that there was no one missing, so she asked.
Concubine Hui hurriedly said: "Back to the Queen Mother, it was the concubine Wu Ya who didn't come." ”
"Did you say why you didn't come?" The Queen Mother asked.
"Back to the Queen Mother...... Concubine Hui deliberately said hesitantly: "This...... Erchen doesn't know yet. ”
"Wu Yashi didn't need to say hello in the morning when he was crazy for a few years before, but now he can't adapt to it at first glance?" Xi Concubine said, causing several people to hide their lips and sneer.
Yi Concubine said in a timely manner: "I heard that the emperor who was confused by a Western song by De Concubine was very fascinated, and yesterday I went to the corner tower with the emperor to watch the stars. The emperor slept very punctually before, but he went back very late yesterday, and he didn't rest until the second half of the night. ”
These words poked at the weakness of the Queen Mother, she was most worried about Kangxi's exclusive pet, and who else was willing to stay up late at night regardless of her body as an elder? This Wu Yashi is too ignorant, hooking up with the emperor to watch the stars, and he doesn't see if the emperor is busy. Now I don't come to say hello without saying a word, and I'm too pampered and arrogant.
