Chapter 62: The Bracelet

"Little Lord Rong Ji?" Xiao Chengzi asked suspiciously, lowered his head and pondered for a long time before replying: "The slave didn't pay attention to the little master Rong Ji...... It's just that early this morning, the slave heard a word from the rough eunuch who was sweeping in front of our door, saying that the little master Rong Ji had gone to Jiyue Yaotai to serve the queen again. Everyone understands that the queen likes the little lord Rong Ji, but they don't think it's strange. ”

Bai Caiwei went to see the queen again? It seems that she has become smarter, and knows that when something happens, don't rush forward recklessly, and first go to see what good ideas the kind, virtuous, helpful, and omnipotent queen mother has.

It is said that the queen is really interesting enough for Bai Caiwei, and taught her the truth of survival in the harem without reservation, and patiently taught her how to be a favorite concubine. If there was no queen, how could Bai Caiwei please the emperor when she spoke to the emperor in the Qinzheng Palace that day. Lin Yuan felt that the queen mother was also very hard, and it should be very troublesome to teach Bai Caiwei, a rotten wood analogue, right? It's also thanks to her patience!

Lin Yuan chuckled when she thought of this: "Why does the queen like the Bai family, who can know in her heart?" It's hard to believe that Bai is not a good person in the day, but she is diligent in front of the queen, and often gets up early to serve in the queen's palace, and her respect for the queen is really admirable. ”

Xiao Chengzi is also an understanding person, and when he heard this, he stood quietly and did not say a word.

Lin Yuan glanced at him with a smile and said, "You go down, it's tiring for you to go to the palace to run errands every day." ”

Xiao Chengzi hurriedly claimed that he didn't dare.

After Xiao Chengzi stepped back, Lin Yuan sighed with a heavy face.

Heh, is it you, Chu Huaxin?

Lin Yuan knew very well in her heart that whoever made the biggest move last night was the one who assassinated herself. Because only she knew that Lin Yuan's sleeping room would be messed up, and the emperor was afraid that he would find someone else to sleep in, she didn't want to miss this night's opportunity, so she was ready. Lin Yuan didn't know how Chu Huaxin intercepted the emperor halfway, but the people next to him would never have imagined that the emperor would leave Lin Yuan to find someone else, even if he met Tuoba Hong halfway without a little preparation, it would not be easy to succeed in winning favors.

According to the Chu family's family background, she can have the ability to find the medicinal powder, and she can also have the manpower to help her work to frame herself, these conditions are enough. It's just that she is really a bit bold enough to make such a ruthless move that will be put to death.

Chu Huaxin finally made a move on himself. The taste of falling from the clouds of the sole pet was very uncomfortable, and at the tea party that day, Lin Yuan looked at Chu Huaxin's down-and-out appearance and understood the hatred in her heart, but there was no way, Lin Yuan had to pull her down in order to take her place.

And obviously Chu Huaxin is not a fuel-efficient lamp, she is unwilling, she does not admit defeat, she still has the grand cause of pampering the six palaces in her heart, so she will never stop calculating.

Besides, even if there is no Chu Huaxin, there will be others, and Lin Yuan is now the first-class favorite concubine by the emperor's side, and everyone doesn't count her.

Lin Yuan thought about it, it would be better if an opponent like Chu Huaxin should be eliminated as soon as possible. She can't move people like Concubine Xiang, but it doesn't mean that she can't move everyone.

***

Because today is the day of the morning province again, Lin Yuan has to restrain her mind and go to the queen to say goodbye.

The queen's Jiyue Yaotai hall is still in that scene. Lin Yuan came neither early nor late, sat down to drink tea and chat with a group of women, and listened to their gossip about Yun Xiu's favor last night. At the tea party that day, a few concubines thought that Yun Xiurong would fall out of favor and ridiculed her, but they didn't expect her to get up again soon. The faces of these people today are full of embarrassment, and they don't dare to speak in front of everyone.

And Yun Xiurong, who was sitting in the front seat, was silent, and her sister Tian Shuji was even more calm, which made people guess their thoughts.

The people in the main hall came in a while, and waited for the queen to come out from behind as usual. The queen is wearing a rose purple Shu brocade material today, and the placket and cuffs are always embroidered with complex and gorgeous textures, and the posture of sitting on the top is not angry and arrogant. It's just that Lin Yuan knows that although this kind of Shu brocade, Yun brocade or Su embroidery can show solemnity, the material is much thicker than the yarn that ordinary people like to wear, and I don't know how the queen endured it.

Lin Yuan understood that this queen was such a personality, those thin and transparent clothes were comfortable to wear and could show her youth, but the queen felt frivolous. Fortunately, there are enough ice cubes now, and there are ice sculptures of flowers, birds, insects and fish on silver trays everywhere in the entire Jiyue Yaotai Palace, and two more plates are specially placed on the small tables on the queen's side; There is a palace maid on the side who keeps playing a fan, and it is okay to deal with it like this.

Naturally, it was Bai Xiuwei who came out with the queen. It's just that she didn't go down to sit today, so she stood in the open space beside the queen, and was with the palace maid Bang Qiu next to her.

Lin Yuan was a little surprised by this. Most of the concubines next to them were disdainful, they looked down on Bai Caiwei's noble but willing to be a lackey for others, and they had to admit that she was blessed by the queen.

The queen smiled and accepted everyone's salutes, and greeted everyone for a while, and the hall was happy for a while. Because of yesterday's division of jade, this group of women had a conversation, and took out the jade bracelet, jade pendant, and jade earrings from head to toe to taste. Although the days of such three sentences without clothes and jewelry are trivial, they are also the only pleasure in the palace, if they don't talk about this, the concubines will throw bricks at each other when they are bored, and the scene is not very good.

After a while, the queen turned to the Chu sisters, who had not spoken much, and said with a smile: "This bracelet on Yun Xiurong's hand is a little chic, how can the jade look blue?" Hongu's eyes are not very good, and I can't see what color it is from a distance. ”

Yun Xiurong didn't expect that he would be noticed by the queen, and hurriedly replied: "I heard that the people of the Shanggong Bureau said that this bracelet is cold jade, so the color is blue, although such an object is more precious than jade, it is not as good as the things in the queen's palace." ”

When she spoke, she felt a little unhappy, why did the queen want to talk about her bracelet. This bracelet was given by the emperor when she served the emperor last night, and she didn't want to put it away because of the unusually beautiful color, so she came to the queen the next day and wore it on her hand. The lessons of the past made Chu Huaxin obedient, this time she would not let this good thing be exposed to others, so she deliberately wore a palace dress with wide sleeves to cover it up...... It's just that I'm hiding it well, did the queen's eyes have perspective and actually saw this bracelet? !

He also said that his eyes were not good! Is......

But since the queen said it, she couldn't hide it, so she could only stretch it out to the women around her.

At this time, Liu Jieyu, who was sitting at the bottom of Chu Huaxin, chuckled, looked at the bracelet on one wall and said: "Sister Xiurong has such a big vision, and the priceless cold jade is so easy to say." The concubine looked at this piece of jade as if it was a good quality, and I don't know where my sister got it, the only string of bracelets inlaid with cold jade in the concubine's hand was still the dowry that entered the palace back then......"

After Liu Jieyu finished speaking, Feng Zhuangji also laughed and said, "It turned out to be Leng Yu." Many women in this palace like warm jade, in fact, cold jade is above warm jade in terms of color and value, but because of the rarity of things, everyone does not dare to ask for luxury. As he spoke, he looked at Chu Huaxin with a sideways face, and asked in a crisp voice, "Where did you get the jade of the contouring lady?" ”

Chu Huaxin's face tensed, and he glanced at Liu Jieyu and Feng Zhuangji slightly, and a trace of suppressed disgust flashed in his expression. This woman surnamed Liu entered the palace with her, and it was not bad to climb to Jieyu's position in three years, but she was always overpowered by her. After fighting for so many years, I haven't been able to get past myself, and I still want to do it in front of myself! What is Feng Zhuangji, she has never received much grace, and the only thing that can be called a slight success is that she was accepted as a dog's leg by Concubine Xiang......

But the two of them seemed to have a tacit understanding, and they forced themselves to ask themselves where the bracelet came from!

Chu Huaxin had no choice, so he had to coldly say that it was the emperor's reward. Immediately, a concubine said with envy and jealousy: "It should have been rewarded by the emperor last night, right?" The emperor really loves to cultivate the mother, a few days ago I didn't recruit the lucky mother, I thought that the mother fell out of favor, I never thought that now the emperor thinks of the mother again, and I want to congratulate the mother on your grace......"

Lin Yuan wanted to laugh when she heard these words, these women are all talents, and the words they say can choke people to death in a weird way, as if they have really fallen out of favor after not sleeping for a few days...... Alas, Chu Huaxin, Chu Huaxin, look at what you are doing now, even if you are no longer petted, you are still regarded as a target by everyone, and you will not give up if you don't make a sieve. You can't live because of your own sin, you want to replace Concubine Xiang and want to go crazy, but you can't compete for favor but are pushed down from the clouds...... Until now, the concubines are still haunted by the original bullying, and the end of this group of beatings is not comfortable!

At this time, Chu Huaxin's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. Others seemed to be flying a knife at Liu Jieyu and others, but in fact she was peeking at the face of the previous queen - she felt more and more that the queen was terrifying.

This tall woman will always have an impeccable smile. She didn't say much, and the concubines who always bowed down in the hall of Rou'an were fighting, and she sat silently at the top and watched all this coldly, and only at the end of the battle did she stand up and say two words of mediation - of course, if Concubine Rou was present, even these two sentences could be saved for the queen. But in the eyes of Chu Huaxin today, the queen can always stir up huge waves in the entire harem with few words and light movements.

Why did he have the opportunity to be favored at the beginning, speaking of which, the queen brought up the gorgeous clothes. Since then, there has been a situation where he and Concubine Xiang confronted each other for favor, the Lin family, the Bai family and others jumped off the beam to share the oil and water, and the concubines next to them were in a mess. Later, the queen was calculated to lose the ice, and she was somehow swept in, and the queen suppressed herself in order to get out of trouble and to promote the Bai family...... Chu Huaxin has been thinking about the original thing, and she feels that the thing she was calculated was probably the queen's instructions.
