At about the beginning of the Mo Shu period, several richly dressed concubines came in twos and threes.

Xiumei reminded in a low voice behind Su Lian: "The one at the front is Concubine Na Lashu who gave birth to the eldest brother, the one who wears the purple and blue makeup satin cloak is the concubine Ma Jia who gave birth to the third elder brother, the two behind Concubine Ma Jia are the big and small Guo nobles who entered the palace in the thirteenth year of Kangxi, and the three who came together behind are Concubine Dong Shu, Concubine Li and Concubine Wang Jiashu of the Han Army Banner, although these three concubines are Han Army Banners, but their fathers and brothers are not low in official positions in the court, and they have been in the palace for many years. ”

Looking at the concubines who came, there were a lot of military banners and Han military banners, especially the concubines mentioned in the embroidered eyebrows, and now after the three years of the funeral of Queen Hesheri, I am afraid that nine times out of ten they will be concubines. The noble Guo Luo Luo sisters all entered the palace late, and Concubine Tong entered the palace in a year, and they were not as senior as Concubine Nala, so they all automatically stood behind.

In the end, the birthday star Tong appeared, and as soon as she came, the concubines who were seated hurriedly got up and saluted. Su Lian was in a remote location, and secretly glanced at the Tong family who was in the main position, she was going to hold a birthday banquet, and almost all the concubines in the palace were here, I don't know how Concubine Niu should feel? Su Lian had heard that Concubine Tong was deeply favored by the emperor, and it was true.

Concubine Tong was wearing a silver-red cloud satin flag dress embroidered with Luan Feng that was very similar to red, under the lights of the night, it was particularly bright and dazzling, this silver red at first glance was only slightly lighter than the red, which showed Concubine Tong's heart.

With joy on his face, Tong said politely and affectionately: "I've waited a long time for the sisters!" It's just my birthday, and I didn't expect everyone to come. ”

There was a hint of surprise on her cheeks, but Su Lian glanced at the hall lightly and found that the seats set up were just full, no more than one and no less than one, which showed that the people invited by Concubine Tong had come. This situation should be expected by her, right?

The first person to respond was the concubine Nara who was sitting in a critical position, "Niangniang's birthday, how can you not come?" What's more, the palace has not been lively for a long time! "Nala's facial features are round, his body is full of mature charm, and his speech is also extremely affectionate. She is the biological mother of the eldest brother Baoqing, and she is one of the best seniors in the palace.

Tong said humbly: "The war in the south of the previous dynasty, I am not a whole life, I just invite my sisters to get together." ”

When the host arrived, the guests were full, and the feast began.

First of all, the accompaniment of ancient music, the palace maid in a green palace costume warmed the stomach with white jade milk tea for each table, followed by the second product of gluttony and the second product of candied fruit, which was made of jade bean cake and Buddha's hand gold roll, which were very exquisite; The candied longan and candied green plum are pickled very deliciously, but they are too sweet, Su Lian doesn't like it very much, and he bowed his head and ate a few pieces of milk tea.

The candied fruit was withdrawn, and then the main dish was served: fish fillet with milk sauce, eight-treasure rabbit dice, sweet and sour lotus root, and golden mushroom pinched vegetables, which happened to be two meat and two vegetarian.

In this way, the dishes were withdrawn and served, and after three or four rounds, Su Lian ate seven points full. Although her position is inconspicuous, she can't eat food in front of so many people, not to mention that everyone is gentle, and she only uses three or four chopsticks for a dish, and she can't go too far.

The noble Wuya sat in front of her, she was drinking tea, and spoke in a low voice to the concubine Wang Jia next to her. Complimenting each other on their clothes and jewelry is extremely appropriate.

Xiumei looked at the two people in front of Su Lian, and said in a low voice: "Although Xiao Master Wu is a nobleman, his clothes are all made of cloud brocade, which is only available in the concubine's share, and it is said that it was privately rewarded by the emperor." ”

Wu Ya's family is favored, Su Lian doesn't think it's strange, this is Queen Xiaogongren, who gave birth to three sons, three daughters and six children in history! Due to the rebellion of the three feudatories, the draft was suspended, so there are now many low-ranking concubines from palace maids in the palace, and the highest among them is the noble Wu Yashi.

Now they are already discussing in private, the candidates for the successors after the funeral, and the directory of official concubines. The next is naturally born between Concubine Tong and Concubine Niu, but it is difficult to decide who the four concubines and six concubines should live in.

Concubine Na Lashu and Concubine Ma Jia, who gave birth to the prince, should be among them, and Guo Luoluo, a large and small Guo nobleman, is also from the Three Banners, and I am afraid that there is also the possibility of being promoted. And the war situation of the three feudatories is stalemate, and the emperor reuses the Han army flag to fight, I am afraid that he will also seal a few Han army flag concubines, Dong Shufei, Wang Shufei and Li Shufei are also very likely candidates. And this Wuya nobleman...... The people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs are afraid that they also want her to go to the next level.

Alas, the back and the palace, it is complicated when there are many people.

Xiumei lowered his voice and said: "Wu Guiren is so favored, and he has the intention of being close to the little master, the little master...... You might as well go with the flow. ”

Su Lian was speechless, she knew that embroidered eyebrows were for her good, but she was really not interested in playing a game of competing for favors, it was too brain-hurting!

When Su Lian returned to the apse, it was already the second watch, and people were already sleepy.

But the main hall is still brightly lit, Concubine Tong's carefully groomed face is delicate and gentle, and the sky is over, but she is not in a hurry to sleep in wide clothes.

Until Xu Chang'an, the chief eunuch of Jingren Palace, came over and said, "Long live the Lord has already rested in the Heart Cultivation Palace." ”

Concubine Tong felt sorry for herself in the mirror, and her knowing smile at the birthday banquet was long gone, leaving only a sad and sad face.

Mama Gao hurriedly explained: "Master, the emperor is busy with the affairs of the three feudatories, and seven or eight of the ten days are resting in the Heart Cultivation Palace. This afternoon, I asked someone to send two Dong Zhu to the master, which is a good pearl, even for Concubine Niu's birthday, I don't have such a good thing. ”

Concubine Tong smiled reluctantly, "Mama and tell me, what is new in today's birthday gift." ”

Mama Gao looked at the gift list and replied: "Concubine Nara sent a pair of jade Ruyi with excellent color, and Concubine Ma Jia gave a gourd Wandai purple gold glazed kang screen......"

Mama Gao read them one by one, and Concubine Tong only said: "It's all ordinary things." ”

"That's right—" Mama Gao said suddenly, "Su from the apse agreed, and sent a pair of pillows, the style is a little strange." ”

"Sue promised?" Concubine Tong pondered for a long time before she sighed, "It's the one in the apse, hasn't she been sick all the time a month ago?" ”

Mama Gao thought of the little master who was dressed up and dressed up well, and felt a little pity, and said: "It was good earlier, before Su promised to serve the palace maids around her. ”

Concubine Tong was suddenly slightly stunned in the mirror, and suddenly asked Mama Gao: "Su promised - she - but the surname is Ussuri?!" “

Mama Gao nodded, "It's surnamed Ussuri." ”

Concubine Tong fell into deep thought and said: "Before, Eniang from the palace came to the palace to narrate, and mentioned that there was a vanguard officer under the Guangxi general Sun Yanling who was extremely brave, that is, Baoyiqi, surnamed Ussuri clan, who killed the general under the traitor Shang Zhixin in the battle of Yuezhou, causing Shang Zhixin to surrender in defeat. The emperor also praised this person. ”

Saying that, Concubine Tong instructed Eunuch Xu: "Xu Chang'an, you go and check if this Ussuri pioneer is a close relative of the promised Ussuri clan!" ”

Eunuch Xu hurriedly bowed down and hit Qian, and responded with a "sigh".

Mama Gao was also quite surprised: "Maybe, the good luck that this Su promised is coming." ”

Concubine Tong also looked solemn, slowly brushed the sandalwood Buddha beads in her hand, and said in a condensed voice: "Shang Zhixin surrendered, and the three feudatories tore a big hole, and the chaos was pacified, and it was just around the corner." "If the Ussuri Pioneer and Ussuri promise to be close relatives...... Then she did have good luck.

Concubine Tong settled down a little, she is from Jingren Palace, so it seems that it is a good thing.

"How's her body?" Tong asked instead.

Mama Gao raised the corners of her eyes and said with a smile: "It's not the same as before, and I can't live without the decoction every day." "On Concubine Tong's birthday, she also sent someone to Yongshou Palace to deliver an invitation, but Concubine Niu naturally did not come because she was sick.

"Although Concubine Niu didn't come today, she still gave a birthday gift, a pair of good Hetian jade cups." Mama Gao glanced at the gift list that had just been prepared in her hand and said.

Concubine Tong snorted and pursed her lips: "Concubine Niu is still always generous." "Hetian jade is the best in jade, not to mention the jade cup carved out of a large piece of Hetian jade! What's more important is the dragon and phoenix pattern on the top, Concubine Tong was a little uneasy for a while, and she couldn't figure out what to do with this thing.

"Concubine Niu's body is like that...... She is also the daughter of a criminal minister who is attached to the rebellion, and the long-lived lord has cared for her for many years, and once had a small birth injury to the root cause, so as not to implicate her. Don't worry. ”

Concubine Tong didn't dare to despise Concubine Niu, but her face became more and more sorrowful: "Concubine Niu has been serving the emperor for more than ten years, although she has avoided Yongshou Palace over the years, the emperor has treated her badly." No matter what she says, she is still the three flags on the Manchurian flag, but she is still the daughter of the Niu Hulu clan with the surname of the big family. ”

Compared with Concubine Niu's illustrious surname and family, the Tong family is extremely embarrassed - she is just a Han military banner.

After a moment of silence, Tong suddenly smiled and instructed Mama Gao: "Didn't Su promise to offer a pair of pillows?" Let's put it on tomorrow. ”
