The queen gave the seat, and after the harem Yingying and Yanyan sat down, those concubines who thought they were highly qualified became arrogant and arrogant.

For example, Concubine Li, she is the concubine with the most servants, and the emperor comes to the harem every month a few times, and there will always be a time to go to her.

Concubine Fu Rongrong is beautiful and bright, and she is the sister of the prime minister, so it is inevitable that she will be more proud.

Among these new concubines who entered the palace, she was the first to look down on the sharp Jing noble.

"Jing Guiren is really young! The crimson clothes on his body, although they are not as good as the queen's red palace clothes, but when worn on Jing Guiren, is it really like that? The quiet nobles of the lining, people are more delicate than flowers. ”

Concubine Li's tone was deliberately pinched, she was deliberately **. Isn't the queen generous? Then just endure it, there will always be a time when you can't help it.

If the queen can't help it and confront Jing Guiren, will she be happy?

Concubine Li is not stupid, she has never dared to underestimate the queen. Don't look at the queen's indisputable appearance on weekdays, and she is a model of gentleness and virtuousness, but the more this kind of person, the more things she cares about, and what the queen cares about is her queen's throne.

Even the smallest details, she will not allow anyone to trespass.

The queen mother was silent, still calmly drinking tea. As if he didn't understand the provocative meaning of Concubine Li's words.

Jing Guiren smiled and said, "Thank you Concubine Liniang for your praise, the queen is gentle and virtuous, Concubine Li's beauty is unparalleled, and the concubine knows that she can't compare to all the maidens, so she can only put more effort into dressing." ”

"I'm afraid that if I dress up too much, I will be accused of being a vulgar fan, but now that Concubine Li says this, the concubine will feel at ease. It seems that the dress of the concubine is quite appropriate. ”

Jing Guiren poked out with such a soft knife, but others didn't show anything, but Concubine Xian Niangniang laughed, "Jing Guiren is really worried." ”

"Even if Jing Guiren works dressing up, where can she compare to Concubine Li's ability to dress up? From clothing and jewelry to rouge gouache, Concubine Li does not leave anything behind, and everything is carefully selected. ”

Concubine Xian is not a person who likes to talk, and when she suddenly said such things, everyone else was stunned. After reacting, they couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh.

Jing Guiren just said that he was dressed too much, for fear of being said to be a vulgar fan. And Concubine Li said that Jing Guiren's dress is just right and timely.

But Concubine Xian said again, Concubine Li's dress up is more than enough than Jing Guiren, doesn't it mean that Concubine Li dresses up too much? Concubine Li's vulgar powder?

Concubine Li also realized this, and gritted her teeth with hatred, but she couldn't attack immediately. She can't say that Concubine Xian actually laughed at her for being a vulgar fan, right?

Even the queen was surprised, why did this virtuous concubine suddenly fall in love with Concubine Li? However, for this result, the queen is also happy to see it.

Concubine Xian coughed twice suddenly, and Rong'er, the palace maid who followed, immediately brought tea.

Concubine Xian took the tea and drank it, and the cough was suppressed.

Concubine Li saw it in her eyes, and a trace of relief flashed in her eyes. A sick seedling of the Western Chu Kingdom, how many days does it have to live? She doesn't bother to bother with her!

The queen's tone was very caring, "Why is Concubine Xian's condition getting more serious?" ”

Concubine Xian smiled bitterly, "It's the concubine who is not angry, so the queen is worried." The concubines are only afraid that there will be no good days left. At this time, I thought of the Western Chu Kingdom, and the pain of homesickness of the concubines was really hard to mind! ”

Concubine Xian said this, and felt guilty again, "Today is such a good day, the concubine is really disappointed, and I hope the queen will not blame." ”

The queen mother comforted, "Concubine Xian's thoughts, this palace can understand." ”

The queen mother said this, and the virtuous concubine showed a sad look on her face again, "The queen mother, the concubine has a reluctant request." The two palace maids brought by the concubines from the Western Chu State are now only Feng'er who served in Xinzheku, can the queen be gracious and let her return to Biluo Palace to serve? Bengong now thinks about the matter of Xichu, and there is no one to speak. ”

When Concubine Xian said this, she had already committed the taboo of the palace concubine. She is now the concubine of the Tanglin Kingdom, how can she talk about the Western Chu Kingdom?

The queen couldn't help frowning, and couldn't guess what Concubine Xian thought. Concubine Xian is obviously not a stupid person, right?

"This..."The queen was a little embarrassed, "That Feng'er was punished to serve in the Xinzhiku because he violated the palace rules." If this palace is extrajudicial, it will inevitably be discussed as favoritism! ”

"That's right! Does Concubine Xian want to make the queen mother bear the charge of favoritism for her own selfish desires? Concubine Li fanned the flames on the side.

Concubine Xian immediately explained, "The concubine has no such intention, the concubine is just homesick and wants to find a palace maid to serve since childhood." ”

"Concubine Xian Niangniang came all the way from Western Chu, but there are no palace people from Western Chu by her side?" Jing Guiren suddenly asked curiously.

"The concubine has read some history books since she was a child, and she knows that during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, whenever the princess marries in another country, she must not only bring a bunch of etiquette and music classics, groups of palace people, but also some concubines to marry. And most of the monarchs who marry will gladly accept it. ”

"Just like the queen mother of Qin, the great grandmother of the first emperor, she was the marriage of Empress Hui at the beginning. And the Empress Dowager of Qin is from the State of Chu, and her mother is the concubine Teng next to Ju Ji of the State of Chu. Now that the princess is marrying other countries and relatives, she has no such thing as marrying Concubine Teng. However, there will be no fewer palace people brought. ”

"Could it be that in the palace of Concubine Xian, there are no palace people from the Western Chu Kingdom to serve you?"

"The concubine heard that in the early years, the princess of the Tanglin Kingdom and the pro-Western Chu Kingdom, because the queen of the Western Chu Kingdom killed a palace person next to the princess, the princess of the Tanglin Kingdom cried directly to the Tanglin Kingdom, and the Tanglin Kingdom was angry for the princess and almost sent troops to the Western Chu?"

"Queen Mother, is this true or false? The concubines are just listening to rumors and hearsay. ”

The queen's face was slightly sluggish, and she still said calmly, "Tanglin is a big country, and the princess who marries out of Tanglin is not allowed to be bullied." ”

"Oh? So, what happened back then was it true? From this point of view, the Tanglin Kingdom has not done what you don't want to do to others! "Jing Guiren actually said this.

"Bold!" Concubine Liangniang, who had not spoken up, suddenly reprimanded loudly.

"You are the princess of Tanglin, and you dare to talk about the Tanglin Kingdom in the Tanglin Palace! How many lives do you have to say that? Don't you want to live? ”

The queen's face also became solemn. He said a warning word, "Noble Jing, please speak." This palace remembers that you are new to the palace and do not understand the rules, so I will forgive you this time, go back and think about it behind closed doors, and copy the Buddhist scriptures for the Queen Mother for three months! ”

Jing Guiren did not have the slightest timidity, "Queen Mother, what is the crime of concubines?" ”

"You—" the queen mother paused, "are you so unrepentant?" Discussing the national policy of Tanglin in vain is to be beheaded, and this palace is already an extrajudicial grace. ”

"May I ask the queen mother, does the Tanglin Kingdom advocate that courtiers, concubines, and people have the courage to admonish?"

"This is natural, since the emperor ascended the throne, this has been a national policy of the Tanglin Kingdom. It was precisely because the emperor was willing to listen to those contrary advice that the Tanglin Kingdom became stronger and stronger. ”

"That's right, the queen is wise. It is a blessing for the Tanglin Kingdom to have such an enlightened emperor and such a righteous queen. ”

"And what the concubine said today is just to advise the queen to be courteous, preferential, and the princess of other countries. Just like in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it was precisely because the rulers did not regard the princesses of other countries as outsiders that they were able to create the great cause of the Qin Dynasty to unify the six countries. ”

What Jing Guiren said was reasonable and inspiring, and the queen was stunned for a while.

In the queen's Fengyi Palace, there was a sudden silence.

"Well said!" A deep, magnetic voice came from outside the hall.

And the people went according to their reputation, and as for who was coming, they all understood in their hearts.

The queen took the lead in greeting the emperor, "See the emperor, the emperor is blessed with gold." ”

"Excuse me!" The emperor waved his hand.

Then he walked towards Jing Guiren, with incredulity in his eyes, "You said what you said just now?" ”

"Yes." Chu Shuyao is neither humble nor arrogant.

"Unify the Six Kingdoms?" The emperor repeated, with questions, and suddenly laughed, "The hegemony that dominates the world!" ”

He looked at Jing Guiren again, "Although what you said is not so practical, it makes some sense. Among the concubines, it is indeed rare to have such a pioneering concubine. The emperor did not hesitate to appreciate.

"Queen."

"The concubine is here." The queen responded tremblingly.

"As she said, release the palace maid who serves the virtuous concubine!"

"Yes." The queen mother responded, and asked cautiously, "Does the emperor have time to enter the harem today?" The new concubines are all here, why don't you choose a favorite one? ”

"No, I'll go to Concubine Xian today."

The emperor looked at Concubine Xian, who was stunned for a moment, and forgot to salute and thank her. When Concubine Xian understood and wanted to bow and thank her, the emperor had already left.

"Congratulations to the emperor." The queen took the lead in sending the emperor off.

This is the end of today's drama.

And the up-and-coming, sharp-edged quiet nobleman. has also become a thorn in the eye of the harem concubines, a thorn in the flesh!

On the way back to Biluo Palace, Concubine Xian's body couldn't support it, and she didn't dare to support it, so after saying goodbye to Jing Guiren, she hurriedly left in a sedan chair.

Chu Shuyao knew that Concubine Xian should be in a hurry to pick up Feng'er. After all, she was the palace maid who grew up with her since she was a child.

When she was in the Western Chu Kingdom, Yuege's mother was not favored, and she was not loved by her father, so it was inevitable to sympathize with the loyal palace people below!

The palace of Tanglin Kingdom is really big, and when she entered the imperial garden, she was a little lost. At this time, Chu Shuyao began to regret not bringing out a palace maid from the palace. This Yurun, who doesn't know the way than her, is estimated to be unreliable.

But she wasn't in a hurry, and walked slowly in the imperial garden. This season, the most in the imperial garden is the chrysanthemum.

"Jing Guiren likes chrysanthemums?" Suddenly, a voice rang out from behind her.

The sudden fright made her body tremble in panic. Then he turned around and said with a smile, "Seven princes are blessed." ”

Mu Lingchen smiled slightly, "You are really different, no wonder the imperial brother is very special to you?" ”

"What does the Seventh Prince mean by this? The concubine doesn't understand! ”

"You're so smart, how can you not understand?" The Seventh Prince suddenly stepped forward and whispered in his ear.

Chu Shuyao hurriedly took a step back, "Seventh Prince, please respect yourself." ”

Mu Lingchen's expression became normal again, "Of course this king will be self-respecting." Jing noble, I hope you can go smoothly along the way. ”

Mu Lingchen's tone was full of warnings and reminders.

"Thank you, Lord Seven."

It is useless to say more. Chu Shuyao really didn't want to say any more, so she hurriedly left.
