130 The Taste of Power (Three Watches
The palace maids hurriedly came to help Jing Shu to the ground, the old eunuch cleared his throat, unfolded the holy decree to read, Jing Shu lowered her head, the first time she heard this sound that is not yin or yang, or the night before the Dragon Boat Festival, the fierce old eunuch took them into the palace, and since then the dark days have begun.
How long has this been? Two, three months? Jing Shu just stretched out her hand to the window to feel the coldness of the snowflakes, in the hot summer, she was doing all the unspeakable things under the obscenity of the old emperor, and now the snow is white, the emperor has died, in just half a year, she is like a lifetime, as if a lifetime has passed.
"Concubine Jing, please move to the Longevity Palace, the emperor said, there will be no one else living there, several noble concubines and concubines have been sent back to their parents' homes, and the queen mother has the final say on the affairs of the harem." The eunuch smiled flatteringly, bent down and stuffed the holy decree into Jing Shu's hand, Jing Shu looked at him blankly, who is Concubine Jing?
"See the concubine." The palace maid and eunuch knelt on the ground, Jing Shu looked around, were they worshipping themselves?
Seeing that Jingshu looked dazed, the old eunuch took the trouble to explain, saying that Jingmei was thoughtful and laborious before the death of the first emperor, and was named Concubine Jing by the new emperor, and moved to the Longevity Palace as a concubine. The emperor will hold a big wedding at the same time when he ascends the throne tomorrow, and after the crown princess becomes the queen, the queen and Concubine Jing have the final say in this palace. As for the gray-haired concubines, they went home if they had a home, and those who didn't have a home were sent to the Royal Fushou Nunnery for the elderly, and the young ones all stayed in the palace and were sent back to their homes after they were fifty years old.
"Niangniang, the servant brought a warm sedan chair, so I'm waiting for you to move to the Longevity Palace." The old eunuch was very attentive and wanted to come to help Jing Shu, but Jing Shu hid behind the palace maid in a panic, and the palace maids invited their father-in-law to drink tea, and carefully carried the master back to the bed, Jing Shu's head was still blank, what is she now?
"Master, no one will dare to bully you in the future, Concubine Li is now a sinner who killed the monarch and usurped the throne, Sun Zhaoyi is going to be driven to live with other concubines, if you are willing, call her to humiliate, presumably the emperor will not say anything about you." The palace maids quickly began to pack up Jingshu's things, and they were all secretly happy and followed the right person.
"Is that okay?" Jing Shu asked, the former prince promised her that she could break all Concubine Li's toes in the future, is this what the palace maids are saying now?
"Concubine Niang." The palace maid shouted this title very diligently, but it was very unfamiliar to Jing Shu, "I heard that the cold palace is empty, and I haven't seen any palace maids." It seems that the prince, oh no, the emperor will no longer embarrass you to find any palace maids, and you will enjoy your happiness in the Longevity Palace in the future. ”
Jingshu was stunned and asked, "Can I do whatever I want in the future?" ”
The palace maid hurriedly said: "As long as the emperor doesn't care, in the future, in this palace, even the queen will respect you, who else dares to stop you from doing anything?" ”
At this time, someone outside the door came to urge, saying that Concubine Jing was asked to move away as soon as possible, and the palace maids hurriedly packed up their things, and when they turned out two burdens in the cabinet, one said: "It's all old clothes, and the mother definitely doesn't want it." ”
Jing Shu looked over and remembered that it was Xiangxiang's old thing, and hurriedly said: "Keep this burden for me, you can bring it." ”
The palace maid looked at each other, hurriedly sent it to the master, Jingshu hugged it in her arms, and then said: "The rest of the things, you can watch and do it, remember it in the future, no one can touch this burden, that's me...... The only thing that was clean was me. ”
The last words were very light, and the palace maids didn't hear it clearly, but they were afraid that someone would urge them again, so they went to be busy, saved a few large boxes of things, wrapped Concubine Jing in clothes, and worked together to hug Niangniang on the warm sedan chair. When the sedan chair staggered away from Furong House, Jingshu opened the window and looked back, this time, she will never come back, maybe Xiangxiang will come to her in the future, she doesn't know where to go, they are going farther and farther after all.
It's unimaginable that she Song Jingshu has become the imperial concubine, what a ridiculous and ridiculous thing, it turned out that a tyrant died, and the royal absurdity did not end because of this.
The sedan chair moved forward slowly, there was a bustling sound in front of him, someone stepped forward to scold, and the palace maid who was quiet said fiercely outside the window: "Niangniang, it's Sun Zhaoyi, this is stopping on the side of the road, waiting for us to go first." ”
Jingshu lifted the curtain, and a row of women in plain clothes stood under the wall, and under the white miserable filial piety clothes, it was impossible to tell the level of their former status. Although Sun Zhaoyi is not a concubine with a very high position, she has always been domineering in the palace by relying on the emperor's favor, when Xiangxiang was pressed to the ground by her to eat dirty snacks, Jingshu was so frightened that her soul was scattered, but now she has become a person who sits in a warm sedan chair, and Sun Zhaoyi is down, and there is not even an umbrella in the snow.
How to deal with the harem of the first emperor, it all depends on the mood of the new monarch, and a few people with high moral standing naturally have to do enough superficial work, this kind of disgusting people in the past did all kinds of bad things, the emperor doesn't have to care about the first emperor at all, Sun Zhaoyi is one of them. She stood in the wind and snow in horror, squinting her eyes and vaguely seeing the people in the sedan chair, she couldn't believe that Song Jingshu would be so favored by Xinjun. Could it be that she let Song Jingshu seduce the prince in the first place, but she has made her what she is today?
Jingshu's foot injury, if it weren't for Sun Zhaoyi's sitting a few days ago and the wound was broken, she might have been able to walk to the Longevity Palace by herself by now, and the wound was still faintly painful at the moment, Concubine Li and Sun Zhaoyi's account, she didn't plan to just settle it like that. At this moment, she felt what it meant to be a concubine, and said unconsciously: "Stop the sedan chair." ”
The palace maid immediately understood, leaned to the window and asked, "Does the lady have any instructions?" ”
Jingshu glanced at her, and then turned her gaze to Sun Zhaoyi, Sun Zhaoyi trembled all over, trying her best to hide behind people. Jing Shu smiled coldly and said, "I think the sedan chair is too shaky and uncomfortable to sit on." ”
The palace maid hurriedly asked, "Is it that the eunuchs are not stable enough?" The slave and the maid went and cursed them. ”
Jingshu shook her head and said: "They blame the hard work, the warm sedan chair is so heavy, and they have to be careful not to shake me, I think it must be the snow falling on the ground, and the road is too slippery." ”
"Niangniang means ......"
"Let her go ahead and mop the floor, wipe the snow off the ground, she will wipe a while, let's walk for a while, don't worry, it's still early." Jingshu pointed at Sun Zhaoyi, "Don't want anyone else, just she." ”
The curtain of the warm sedan chair was lowered, and someone stepped forward to pull Sun Zhaoyi, she screamed in horror, saying that she was the Zhaoyi of the first emperor, and that the palace maid and eunuch were guilty of the crime, but now who still takes the Zhaoyi of the first emperor seriously, even Concubine Li is not in charge of her head at any time, what is a Zhaoyi.
There was a stirring outside, screaming and crying, and the others were also frightened, the voices of the eunuchs scolding came and went, Jingshu leaned against the window with the burden in her arms, listening to it, a cold smile appeared on her face, she was not afraid of this sound at all, if her legs and feet were dexterous, she really wanted to go down and stomp Sun Zhaoyi's face on the ground.
After a fierce scream outside, it suddenly became quiet, and the voice of the palace maid came from the window: "Niangniang, Sun Zhaoyi hit the wall." ”
"Dead?"
"I just fainted."
The look in Jingshu's eyes was colder than the wind and snow, and said, "Then leave her here, she will be awake after a while, let's go." ”
Everyone hugged and carried the warm sedan chair to the Longevity Palace, and the other women were driven to the palace where the first emperor's concubines lived together, and the two scattered, Sun Zhaoyi fell miserably in the snow, the wind and snow gradually covered her body, and she didn't know when she would wake up.
On this day, Jingshu really tasted power for the first time, but she had to understand all the time who gave her status and power, and whether her future life in the Longevity Palace would be smooth or on thin ice, depending on whether the emperor was happy or unhappy.
Carried by the powerful eunuch into the strange longevity palace, Jingshu looked up at the plaque, she knew these three words, but she will live a long life and enjoy wealth in the future, or suffer torture, everything today does not determine anything, maybe in a few days, she will end up with Sun Zhaoyi, she is afraid of the young emperor, better than the first emperor a hundred times.
When she was sent into the warm and spacious palace, a thought came out of Jing Shu's heart, she hoped to share wealth with Xiangxiang, and if Xiangxiang was by the emperor's side, the emperor would definitely be happy. As soon as the emperor is happy, what awaits her will be endless glory and wealth, and she will not be bullied in her life, so Xiangxiang is the one who can really fulfill her.
After Jingshu sat down, she grabbed the burden in her hand, called the palace maid to the front and ordered: "You go and inquire, Tai...... When will the emperor see me? ”
The sky is getting darker and darker, but the wind and snow do not stop, and the first snow of this winter is so violent, and there will be countless days of ice and snow in the long winter.
When Jian Feng returned home, the night had fallen, and under the persuasion of him and Shifeng, Qi Hui first parked the coffin of Concubine Xian Niangniang in the temple near the Mujia Cemetery, and Qi Hui would also wait there, as for tomorrow's new monarch's enthronement ceremony, it is unknown whether he will appear.
At this moment, he broke into his cousin's house full of cold, Shen Yan hurriedly stepped forward to ask him to take off his clothes, his clothes were almost soaked with snow, Xiangxiang saw that Master Jian came back, and the stone carving person finally moved, if it was a weekday, she would definitely serve hot tea considerately, and at this moment she ran to Jian Feng and saw that his face was frozen pale, and she woke up.
A bowl of hot tea was delivered to Jian Feng, but Jian Feng didn't dare to look at Xiangxiang's eyes, he must have come to see Xiangxiang specially, but he really met, and he didn't know how to speak. Is Qi Hui too sad and stupid, how could he say such ruthless words, he doesn't want Xiangxiang to follow him anymore, so where does he want Xiangxiang to go?
"Where is my mother's coffin?" Xiangxiang tensed her expression, she has been like this all day, no one knows when she will be unable to help but collapse, the emperor's atrocities, the immortal death of the virtuous concubine, she is suffering unimaginable pain from ordinary people, but the person she cares about the most is back, but he is not by her side. She cautiously asked, "Master Jane, why didn't he come and pick me up?" ”
