Chapter 53: Overlapping (2)

The early summer has just arrived, and many new blue lotuses have been added to the Yongshou Palace. The palace concubines who came to invite An looked strange, and walked around this pool of living water in twos and threes, zigzags and backs, and admired the lotus and spoke.

"Look, isn't that the best nobleman and Chen Chang here? The March lockdown passed so fast. "It was Concubine Chun who spoke. Next to her was Liu Jiayi, a noble who had just returned to the palace from her illness in the Old Summer Palace.

"It's just that the concubine went to the Old Summer Palace for a year, but Sister Chun, look at this harem again, things are not people, how many pink and delicate faces have been added, and how many innocent lives have been given away in vain!"

Concubine Chun smiled in her mouth, and persuaded without moving: "Between you and me, it doesn't hurt to say this. But if it reaches the ears of others, won't it tell you to go to the Old Summer Palace again? Silly sister, woe comes from the mouth. ”

"It's okay. My body is sick and crooked, and I am not suitable to serve the emperor. The scenery of the Old Summer Palace is elegant, but it is a good removal. If it weren't for Concubine Cheng's insistence on asking me to come back, this would be the time to escape the summer! "The indifference of the noble believers is forged by the indifference of the sick people.

Although it is not innate, it can enter the heart the most, and when you hear it, you will know that it is really moving the words of feelings. Concubine Chun has always been able to speak skillfully, but at the moment she can only listen quietly.

"By the way, Sister Chun, have you seen the two twin nobles?" The curiosity of the noble is not related to the competition for favor. But as soon as I returned to the palace, I heard many people mention that those two nobles had a really strange temperament, and they had not set foot in any realm outside Qixiang Palace since they entered the palace.

"That's what you asked." Concubine Chun smiled slightly, and approached the noble person's ear. The tassel pendant on his head is aware of the shaking of Suosuo. "Many people couldn't help but be curious, and sent palace people to investigate. Every time I go back and forth, it's really puzzling. Some say that it is alluring to the country, and some say that it is an ordinary appearance. Huan Feiyan's words are really confusing.

But what can be done, the emperor has allowed these two nobles to close their doors and thank them, live alone to recuperate, and they don't even have to come to the Yongshou Palace where they are concubines, and others naturally have no way of knowing. ”

"If you want to say this, then I still have to ask my sister." The noble believer is also curious: "Does the emperor often go to Qixiang Palace?" ”

Concubine Chun raised her head slightly, looked at the red and bright sun, and said with empty eyes: "It's not that I go often, but I always go a lot." ”

"Sister's words, in the clouds, I am confused." The noble man waved his hand and gathered his thoughts: "It's okay, it's okay if you don't know, there is fun you don't know." ”

But Concubine Chun blocked her mouth with a word, and she didn't vomit or feel unhappy, so she took the hand of the noble person: "It's not that I'm worried about chewing the root of my tongue more, the emperor really doesn't love these two nobles very much." It's also a game of poetry during the day, and it's really not too much. ”

"Oh, sister." The letter nobleman blushed with shame, where did she think that Concubine Chun would say so bluntly. "How can this be said in the bright sun!"

Concubine Chun smiled, covered her mouth and nose and said, "Look at me, I am thick-skinned and not ashamed." On the contrary, he said such explicit words to you, sister, don't forget it. Well, it's not too early, it's time for us to go and say goodbye. ”

Concubine Ding took the noble man and Chen Chang to walk behind, but she didn't hear what Concubine Chun said, but she had her own plans in her heart. "Sister Jia, Sister Chen, Concubine Ru is the most generous and friendly character, and she will never worry about us in the past. It's just that you don't have a grudge in your own heart, and it is not good to encounter the cold words of others and say something hurtful. ”

Jia Guiren smiled comfortably, and his face was as warm as a spring breeze: "Don't worry, the concubine will definitely not." What's more, the past is all because of his own rashness, which makes people pounce, where is the fault of others! In the future, self-cultivation, self-reflection and self-discipline are good things to be serious with themselves, so why should they no longer embarrass Concubine Niangniang. ”

"Okay, if that's the case, this palace will also feel at ease." Concubine Ding looked at her sideways and smiled.

Chen Chang was absent-minded and silent.

"What's the matter, Chen Chang is here, just now, the words of this palace, have you listened to your heart?" The concubine is not embarrassed by her, but it is necessary to mention it a little.

"Naturally, I listened." Chen Chang pouted and said: "But the concubine is the mother, and the concubine is more interested in seeing the true face of that pair of nobles." Is it really as the palace people rumored, the color and art are complete, and the country is captivated. ”

Concubine Ding obviously didn't expect her to say this, so she couldn't help but sigh and shake her head. "When you should be able to see it, you can see it naturally, otherwise it will be painful and meaningless to think about it."

Chen Changzai couldn't help but wake up when he heard the words, walked two steps quickly, turned around and blocked in front of Ding Concubine and Jia Guiren. "Isn't it true that I'm the only one who is curious, and you don't have the slightest intention of wanting to find out? After all, such an unknown person was sent to the palace by Concubine Ru's own sister, no wonder she was not in a hurry. ”

Isn't it enough to have such a clever concubine, and now I have to get in two mysterious women who don't know the depths. Chen Chang was angry, and said in her heart that Concubine Ru really regarded the harem of the Forbidden City as her own backyard.

"Listen, I've lost my sense of proportion again." Ding Concubine couldn't help but shake his head, full of worry: "Anyway, he is also a person who has been grounded, isn't it just to copy scriptures and recite Buddha all day long for self-reflection and self-examination, you are good, it is useless at all." It seems that Concubine Ru is really merciful, and the punishment is too light. ”

"Oh, my concubine, my concubine, did the concubine just say some homely trivial words, look at your displeasure." Chen Chang was pouting, and his heart was not happy. If it weren't for Concubine Ru punishing herself for grounding herself at this time, how could she let those twins take advantage of the loophole in vain.

Now that the self-reflection period has expired, it is difficult to say whether the emperor still remembers her as a person. It's not easy to be favored, and before you can take care of stability, you will fall out of favor. How can it not be worrying!

Jia Guiren didn't want to interject, but he was really too lazy to look at Chen Chang's flattering appearance here, and couldn't help but sneer: "Didn't Concubine Zhuang also punish the noble people for praying for the emperor for a hundred days?" At this time, it is less than 100 days, if Chen Chang is not quiet, you can ask for instructions such as Concubine Niangniang, and go together. When the emperor knows your intentions, he will definitely remember your goodness, and you don't need to be so anxious and worried now. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Chen Chang unconsciously stroked his cheek, and the slap he was rewarded by the nobleman is still painful! "I'm afraid that I will suddenly fall out of favor, so why don't you worry about it yourself." After thinking about it, she suddenly turned angry and smiled: "Or do you say that you collided with the emperor in front of you, and it is impossible to save the sacred heart, so you will break the jar and break it, and you won't be able to see others!" ”

"That's enough, stop me!" Ding Concubine naturally couldn't listen to it, so she had to scold a few words: "This is Yongshou Palace, not Changchun Palace." On weekdays, if you don't know the depths, you can turn a blind eye to the palace, and you should not see it. But if you break the rules here, you will be squeezed by others again, and you will be blamed for being like a concubine. ”

Chen Changzai's words that almost rushed out of his mouth were: Isn't it just that she said good things for you like a concubine, making you shake your life into a "fixed concubine"! You need all kinds of maintenance, wagging your tail and begging like a flower dog? What a blessing for a mere concubine, it's ridiculous!

simply endured it, Chen Changzai only secretly resented in his heart, and did not tear his face with the concubine.

The good nobles are still polite, and they are calm and behaved. Ding Concubine saw it in her heart, and she couldn't help but like it a little more. Then he said: "Everyone has his own life, not that it is not good today, and this life is not good. The emperor is a saint, and he will not just use temporary likes and dislikes to calm a person's good or bad. Whether you are favored or not, it is never a matter of fighting for the length of one day! ”

After saying that, Concubine Ding didn't say anything anymore, but only quickened her pace and walked inside.

"It's so lively." Ruyue and Peishuang have been standing on the cloister of the attic to watch the excitement. When the palace concubines who came to ask for peace almost all entered the palace, they turned around and went downstairs to the main hall.

Pei Shuang kept biting his lip, and he didn't know whether to say something or not.

"If you have anything to say, you can say it, I've been holding it all morning, and I'll see if I'm sick." Ruyue smiled casually, full of freshness. It is like a butterfly that has broken out of its cocoon, dancing to the fullest extent in the most beautiful morning glow.

The more times like this, the more difficult it is for Pei Shuang to speak. "Actually, it's nothing, there is a message from the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the morning. But as always, there was nothing fresh, anything new, food and clothing. ”

"Then why do you have to be so embarrassed, I'm afraid that your lips will be bitten." Ruyue stopped her steps, leaned against the wall and said, "I'm not so vulnerable as you think, I haven't endured any strong winds and waves." ”

"The Ministry of Internal Affairs chose the words for the two twin nobles, and they used 'Kang' and 'Li' respectively." Pei Shuang thought that Ruyue would know sooner or later, so it was better to say it first than to hear it from others.

"Mr. and Mrs?" Ruyue was stunned: "The people of the Internal Affairs Office are getting more and more bold, the queen is just recuperating in Chuxiu Palace, and she has not died." How dare they use such words to title the nouveau riche. ”

"Oh, Miss, it's not a couple who are in deep love, but a healthy and beautiful couple." Pei Shuang sighed helplessly: "But it's about the same." What the slave wanted to say was actually these two words, which were secretly selected by the emperor and secretly handed over to the Internal Affairs Office for formulation. ”

"Oh! I see. Ruyue suddenly realized: "Then it's no wonder that the minions do things according to the rules." Since it's the emperor's will, take it. Later, I will send someone to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to spread the word, saying that the palace also thinks these two words are very good. ”

"Miss, don't be angry. It's just a moment to think about the emperor...... ...... for a while, "Pei Shuang didn't dare to say it, and was mistaken by beauty for a while." After all, when it comes to beauty, no one can compare to a dignified concubine. She is really afraid that Ruyue regards herself as a "beauty" that she has mistaken for a while, so that now, she is alone and shadowy.

"Whether it's for a while, or for a lifetime, how can we speculate on the king's heart." Ruyue smiled slightly and took Pei Shuang's hand: "When you ask for peace later, it's better to inform the rest of the people in the palace." ”
