"A wave of unevenness has risen again and again. Yesterday, the palace was finally cleaned up, but today it is a mess again, the queen mother lost the ice and couldn't suppress the harem, and she didn't know how to be reprimanded by the emperor. Zhao Shuyuan said in a low voice: "I see that there are people who want to get along with the queen." ”
"Concubine? She dare, too. ”
"She didn't dare, but someone dared. Forget it, you won't say a few words these days. ”
Liu Jieyu nodded: "You are my lord, I naturally listen to you." ”
Hearing these words, Lin Yuan raised the fan in his hand even higher. Her movements seem to others to be afraid of heat, but in fact, she can't hold back her laughter and is using a fan to hide it.
Now, people are terrible, people are terrible...... The rumors I released last night never thought that they would have an effect so quickly.
In fact, Lin Yuan didn't know if the Chu family sisters had taken more ice cubes, but now that the emperor was wooing them, he passed the bed last night, and it was estimated that he would give them an ice offering considerately. Whether it is the emperor's reward or the queen's unfair distribution, in short, the two sisters use more ice than others, and they are too hateful in such a day of suffering.
The pampering of the sisters of the Chu family is unbearable for all the women in the harem. But the emperor was still intoxicated and couldn't extricate himself.
All that is needed is an opportunity to break the situation. This ice cube incident will become the last straw that overwhelms the endurance of the concubines. And the person who calculated the queen was different from Lin Yuan, her target was not the Chu sisters, she just wanted to use this matter to make it difficult for the queen.
She wouldn't know who spread the rumors, but she knew what to do to the benefit of both parties.
Today's Jiyue Yaotai is going to have a good show, but it is pitiful for the queen, and she has to bear one more charge of not being effective in the palace.
Lin Yuan didn't have the slightest sense of guilt about this, and the queen didn't calculate herself! I'm really sorry, Queen Mother, in order to deal with the Chu family sisters, I also wrapped you in, don't blame me!
I'm just trying to climb up!
The concubines and others in the hall knelt down to complain, looking forward to the queen to administer justice; The queen still dined in the apse.
The queen pays attention to the way of health preservation, and always eats five-grain porridge, or sorghum, or japonica rice, red beans and the like for breakfast. She chewed and ate a small bowl slowly, and said to the palace maids beside her who couldn't wait: "Change the clothes of this palace." ”
Bang Qiu hurriedly led people to step forward neatly, helped the queen change out of her homely coat, and stretched out a bright yellow wide-sleeved phoenix robe. She really didn't understand, the hall outside was already full of people, but her master didn't hurry to eat and not talk about it, and she had to keep the habit of changing makeup twice in the morning.
It wasn't until the hour that the queen came out.
The people stood up and saluted.
The queen glanced at everyone and saw a strange scene in the hall, three or five concubines were sitting, and a large group of people were kneeling. The two seats in the first row under the phoenix seat were empty.
The seat on the right is Concubine Xiang's, and it's normal for her not to come. The seat on the left is naturally Concubine Rou's. At this time, a messenger eunuch came up and whispered to the queen: "The eldest prince has lung fever, and Concubine Rou has taken leave." ”
The queen sneered in her heart. Sure enough, it was Shen Yunrong's style, secretly provoking disputes but never getting involved, waiting for others to make trouble, hiding far away, and finally reaping the benefits of the fisherman. She also has some skills, she hasn't been caught for so many years, and she has a reputation for being virtuous and benevolent. The concubines and palace people in the palace all have good popularity with her, and they praise her and say that she is good, which is really a strange phenomenon that has not been encountered in the harem of Great Qin for a hundred years.
Shen Yunrong is the person with the best reputation in the palace, but he is the person the queen despises the most in her life.
Among the people kneeling in the center, the leading concubine was Concubine Rou's person, and the next few concubines and nobles were purely joining in the fun. The people in the palace have long complained about the Chu sisters, and this time they grabbed a handle, and naturally they all made trouble, forcing the queen to deal with the Chu family.
The queen said to them, "I have heard your words in this palace. And get up first, if you have any grievances, just sit and say. ”
The concubine didn't move, but only kowtowed: "Please also ask the mother to be the master." The people behind her all learned that she didn't get up, and they all said the same thing.
The queen looked at them like this, and gradually frowned.
This group of unconscious women is more and more daring to disobey themselves! Concubine Mao has learned from Concubine Rou over the years, and her courage has begun to grow! Thousands of pounds of ice were gone, and Concubine Rou spent a lot of effort calculating herself. But she still didn't think it was enough, and she had to release rumors that the Chu family had taken more ice cubes to block herself!
They are forcing themselves to suppress the Chu family. But the Chu sisters are proud in the emperor's heart, and now they want to reuse the governor of Huguang...... If he can't get along with the Chu family, can the emperor be happy, maybe he will blame himself for being ignorant and neglecting Lord Chu for delaying his court affairs! In addition, the crime of throwing ice cubes was deducted on his head, and the roof leak happened to be raining continuously......
Concubine Rou, you have a good calculation!
The queen's heart is depressed, and her situation has become worse and worse over the years. But who is to blame for this? Blame yourself for not being able to have children, blame the emperor for not pampering yourself, blame the Shen family and the Shangguan family? The cold face on the queen's face is intimidating, but others don't know how sad she is.
At this moment, the curtain at the palace gate was lifted, and the two palace concubines came in one after the other, but it was not the Yun Guifei and Tian Liangdi. The two turned a deaf ear to Concubine Mao and the others, and went straight forward to curtsiness to the queen and said, "Niangniang forgives me, the concubine is too late." ”
As soon as the two of them entered, the concubines in the room all looked at them in unison, and many of them had very unkind faces. Su Guiren chuckled lightly and said, "Sure enough, Sister Chu is different from us, there are more examples than others, and there is no need to abide by the rules of asking for peace." ”
"Last night, the emperor flipped over the sign of your concubine Niangniang......" I don't know who whispered.
"Ahhh The noble concubine is deeply favored by the emperor, where can we catch up. ”
"Concubine Niangniang, don't kneel, there has never been the word 'fair' in this palace!"
If it weren't for the queen mother, the Chu family sisters would definitely be able to drown in the spit of a group of women. The queen sighed, and had to reprimand Concubine Yun with a straight face: "The ancestral rules are there, although you have to be favored, you can't go beyond the etiquette." ”
The queen opened her mouth, and Concubine Mao and the others didn't dare to intervene again. Concubine Yun and Tian Liangdi lowered their heads and knelt down to confess to the queen.
At this time, the queen's face was gloomy, and Concubine Yun was no better. She understands how much resentment the group of women in front of her is, and she also understands that she will not be good after being caught by them. Although the queen had recommended Huashang in front of the queen mother in the past, she just wanted to use their sisters to deal with Concubine Xiang, the queen never did useless things, this time it touched her own interests, how could she help their sisters?
It's just that how did the emperor's reward for ice cubes come out last night? She has always been very strict, which slave dares to talk more! Maybe it was the people from Huashang's side who leaked out, these minions should really be beaten......
Wrong! I'm afraid that someone is calculating! She and Hua Sheng are deeply favored by the emperor, and their temperament may be a little arrogant, but they will never act arrogantly and let people grasp the handle. Today, she got up very early in order to ask for peace, but she bumped into a little palace maid carrying water on the way, and she had to go back to change her clothes when she got wet...... Huashang greeted her on weekdays, and she didn't dare to go first if something happened, and she was late to ask for peace when she ran with her for one more trip.
It's a pity that she didn't have time to check the origin of that little palace maid!
Chu Huaxin is suffering now and can't say it. No matter how she argued, she was late, and she did take more ice than others.
At this time, she knelt down here to plead guilty, she was annoyed and hateful in her heart, and she slowly gave birth to a little fear. No matter how favored she has been over the years, she can't compare to Concubine Xiang, and now she finally can't compare, but the taste of public criticism is too shocking.
Look at this group of kneeling concubines, they are all angry one by one, and they can't wait to peel off their skins. Those who did not kneel were also unkind, looking at themselves with eyes like knives. Even the queen was forced by them.
Who is the man who calculates himself? Did she calculate herself for the sake of calculating the queen, or did she catch up with the queen for the sake of calculating? If it is aimed at the queen, it should be Concubine Rou, and if it is aimed at herself, it should be Concubine Xiang...... No, Concubine Xiang didn't do anything anymore after she was pregnant, and it shouldn't be her. Could it be a concubine? She fell out of favor because of her gorgeous clothes, although she didn't follow her to the palace, maybe she still arranged something in secret...... Maybe neither, but a man who hides in the shadows!
Chu Huaxin gritted his teeth and thought, Concubine Xiang has favored the Sixth Palace all these years, how did she come over.
Could it be that he is really inferior to Concubine Xiang and can't deal with this group of women? No, it won't......
Concubine Yun was still full of sorrow, and Tian Liangdi lowered her eyebrows and admitted her mistake in front of this group of women: "The concubine and sister got up late in the morning and were late in the morning, so they are not the concubines." Last night, the emperor recruited my sister and ordered us to give us more ice offerings, and the concubines knew that the shares of all the mothers were insufficient, so they didn't dare to enjoy them exclusively, and when the concubines and sisters went back, they would take out the emperor's rewards and distribute them to the sisters. ”
Concubine Mao chuckled and said, "Where do the concubines dare to ask for the things of the noble concubines." ”
The queen said: "You have heard it clearly this time, Concubine Yun and Tian Liangdi have more things than you are the emperor's reward." They serve the emperor with all their hearts, so they should naturally be rewarded, is it unfair in your eyes? Or do you dare to question the emperor. ”
Concubine Mao sighed in her heart, is the queen talking badly...... But if you stop here, Concubine Rou will definitely not look good. His father is still a subordinate of Concubine Rou.
She remembered what Concubine Rou had taught her, and she had confidence in her heart, and raised her head and said to the queen: "The concubines and others dare not disobey the saint." It's just that the ancestors have training, the harem should be wet with rain and dew, and the emperor favors Yun Gui Concubine Niangniang and Tian Liangdi, and he doesn't recruit others within a month, and the concubines think it's inappropriate. The queen mother is the lord of the harem, and the concubines and others speak softly, and ask the queen mother to advise the emperor in advance. ”
