Chapter 323: Pink Skirt Corners
Xu Changzai was silent with his eyebrows, and said in his heart that a palace maid like Concubine Hui was born with no face and no skin, so she could naturally use the position of concubine to condescend to Li Changzai.
But she didn't want to.
Has the queen forgotten that before, Li Chang was humiliating her for rewarding the palace people with copper coins? After she was promoted to Changzai, she also satirized Li Changzai, and the two had already torn their faces between them.
Seeing that Xu Chang was reluctant, the queen couldn't help but be annoyed.
"What has this palace done to you since you entered the palace? This palace took the trouble to deal with Concubine Zhao to let you be promoted to the position of Chang Zheng, is this how you repay this palace? ”
Xu Changzai also panicked when he heard this, and hurriedly got up and knelt down, "The queen mother is angry, the concubine doesn't mean this." ”
"And what do you mean?"
The queen refuted her arbitrarily, and there was no scruple in her tone about the grudge between Xu Changzai and Li Changzai.
Xu Changzai bit his lip.
What is she in the eyes of the queen?
Why did she go to Concubine Zhao's palace to give thanks, Concubine Zhao was able to let her hold the fourth prince generously, and she was not worried at all that she would be pregnant with a dragon son with the spirit of a male fetus.
And the queen turned a blind eye to her thoughts, and only cared about the queen's own power and interests?
The more she thought about it, the more resentful she felt, and then she realized that the queen's purpose in attracting her was just to take advantage of it, and those likes were also pretended, just looking at the waves of rewards she had given to win over the green nobles these days.
He was wholeheartedly loyal to the queen, and the queen did not reward her like this, but tried every possible way to woo a green nobleman who had never expressed his allegiance.
Xu Changzai was completely discouraged.
She took a deep breath, "Yes, everything for the concubine is arranged by the queen's mother." ”
When the queen heard this, she was satisfied and asked her to get up.
Xu Chang is out of Changchun. Palace, but did not return to Xianfu Palace, but went around to the Imperial Garden, and sent away all the palace people around him.
She wanted to think calmly for a while, and she didn't want the palace people to see her expression, after all, there were several queens around her, and she didn't know it herself.
She has a humble status and has no other way but to rely on the queen in the harem. What if the queen doesn't treat her as a human being?
If she wants to survive in the harem, she is a small person with no background, so why should she put her self-esteem as the top priority?
She couldn't help but laugh, thinking that her father had cultivated her integrity since she was a child, but she didn't expect that everything would come to naught as soon as she entered the harem.
This thought, before I knew it, was getting dark.
She felt that she had a sore back after sitting for a long time, and she had no choice but to go back to Xianfu Palace to curry favor with Li Changzai. With Li Changzai's temperament, she naturally had to be ridiculed, but if she carried the queen out and told Li Changzai that the queen asked her to come, Li Changzai would not humiliate her too much.
Yes, that's it.
She was about to get up when she suddenly saw a large group of colorful people walking not far away, and sat down again to check the movement over there.
The pavilion she sat in was on a rockery, the mountain was a little high, the pavilion was a little shabby, and the concubines in the harem rarely came up on weekdays, so the group of people didn't find her.
When the others got closer, Xu Changzai was surprised to find that it was the emperor and Su Youyi who came to enjoy the flowers together.
"It's a cool autumn day, so I should have come out early. It's evening now, and I'm not afraid of the cold. ”
The emperor spoke to Su Youyi in a rare gentle tone, and personally took the cloak in Shuya's hand and tied it densely for Su Youyi.
Xu Changzai covered his mouth in surprise, he didn't expect the emperor to have such a gentle side.
In her impression, the emperor has always been unsmiling and serious, and occasionally the corners of his mouth are slightly upturned when he laughs, with indifference and alienation.
I heard Su Youyi's voice again, "Who told the emperor to be busy with government affairs during the day?" Now that Lord Ji has been newly promoted to the cabinet, the emperor attaches great importance to him, so he naturally wants to help him adapt to this position. The concubines were not easy to disturb, so they had to ask the chief manager to wait for the emperor to finish handling government affairs before inviting the emperor to come out. ”
The emperor only said: "Next time there is such a thing, you can directly let Gao Qishou come in and spread the word." It's better to let Ji Yushen wait than to make you and the child wait. ”
After that, he touched Su Youyi's belly.
The child in her womb was seven months old. The child will be born in two or three months, and the emperor attaches great importance to this child, and the medicinal supplements have never stopped.
However, Su Youyi refuses to raise it with peace of mind, and is always willing to go out for a walk. It's strange to say, the more she walks, the healthier the child becomes, and when she was just pregnant, she even came to Keju!
Xu Changzai squatted down, she didn't come out when the emperor first came, and she had already missed the best time, so she could only pretend not to exist.
Fortunately, this pavilion is on a rockery, and few people have always come, so she just needs to hold her breath and wait for the emperor and Su Youyi to leave.
"Your Majesty, look at it, it's such a beautiful wild chrysanthemum. Flowers. ”
Su Youyi pointed to a gap in the rockery, where wild chrysanthemums fell at some point. The seeds of the flower actually gave birth to a large cluster of bright golden yellow, and Su Youyi liked it very much.
The emperor said: "The conservatory is cultivating chrysanthemums. Flowers, it will be able to be brought out soon. I heard that there is a rare red chrysanthemum this year, which is more graceful and generous than peonies. ”
"What's so interesting about the flowers grown in the greenhouse, no matter how beautiful they are? In the end, it is not as good as being born and raised, and there is a kind of tenacity. ”
On a whim, Su Youyi wanted to go up to the rockery to pick the chrysanthemum. Flower.
Shuya and the others were frightened, and hurriedly followed, and the emperor waved his hand, signaling that they didn't have to follow, and he personally went to pick it up with Su Youyi.
Xu Chang, who was hiding in the pavilion on the mountain, realized what was happening!
The emperor and Concubine Zhao are actually coming up?!
When they come up, don't they find themselves on the mountain? If she hadn't gone out earlier, and now that the emperor finds out, the emperor will definitely think that she is eavesdropping here, and the words will not be clear!
Xu Changzai suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, only to hear the footsteps getting closer and closer, and the sound of the emperor and Su Youyi laughing.
Like a prisoner to be slaughtered, she forgot what to do to solve the dilemma in front of her, and just looked stupidly in the direction of the steps.
Finally, a light jade hairpin swayed in front of her, and Su Youyi's beautiful face appeared in front of her.
When the two looked at each other, Su Youyi's eyes widened in astonishment.
When she saw the horror in Xu Chang's eyes and her frightened pale face, she reacted almost instantly to what had happened.
In an instant, she made a decision, and quickly turned.
The emperor was right behind her, and was frightened by her sudden turnaround, and hurriedly hugged her, "What's wrong?" ”
Su Youyi smiled reluctantly: "I thought about it, that bush of wild chrysanthemums. It's not easy to spend flowers, it's hard to take root and grow up in the palace, how can you bear to take them off again? Forget it, I'll wait for the red chrysanthemum cultivated in the greenhouse. ”
