Chapter 54: Sisters
"Don't stand, two nobles, sit down." I pointed to the square stool on the side of the warm kang, and said: "The two nobles have the posture of sinking fish and geese, and both have prominent family backgrounds. β
Chen En had already sat down, and as soon as he heard my words, he got up again and said respectfully: "The concubine obeys the order." β
Ziyun also stood up, with a look of disapproval on his face, and I said softly: "Yun Guiren is quick to speak, just say whatever you want, I don't have to be formal." β
Ziyun blinked her beautiful eyes and said, "Niangniang, in fact, it's not that the concubine doesn't want to learn the rules, it's just that the person who is responsible for teaching us the rules, I really don't like it." β
Chen En pulled her sleeve on the side, Ziyun glanced at Chen En, lowered his head, and stopped talking.
I chuckled, "Why don't you say it?" My sister has a straightforward temperament, and this palace likes people like you. β
Ziyun raised his head and said happily: "Really? β
Seeing her demeanor that didn't seem to be fake, I secretly muttered to myself in my heart, this Ziyun, I don't know if she is pretending to be stupid, or if she is really a stupid eldest sister who doesn't know the warmth and coldness of the world.
I smiled and nodded, "How could this palace lie to you?" Tell me, why don't you like Concubine Xian? β
Ziyun said in a deep voice: "We are both show girls who entered the palace at the same time as her, why can't she be selected for the second election?" Don't learn the rules? Among so many show girls, only she and Wanru were favored by the Holy Grace, as if they also entered the concubine, which made the sisters very unconvinced, on the surface they were cordial and polite to us, and in a blink of an eye, they pulled Wanru to the side to whisper, if she really treated us well, why didn't she recommend other sisters to the emperor? It's like being beautiful and having a good mind, why is there no favor after only one favor? Does she think we don't understand? On the one hand, she showed her virtuous virtue to the emperor, and on the other hand, she was afraid that she would climb on her head as if she had pleased the emperor. Even her own sister calculates, this kind of hypocritical person is not only a concubine, no one will like her. β
Listening to Ziyun's words, I couldn't help but be stunned, is Wuyunzhu really such a person? Just when I was stunned, Xiao Linzi came in again and asked to see him.
I glanced at Concubine Shuhui and said with a smile: "Kunning Palace has not been so lively for a long time. β
Concubine Rong entered the hall and bent her knees slightly and said, "Nala has seen Sister Queen and Sister Shuhui." β
She is of the same clan as me, and although it is a bit inappropriate to call her so, it makes no sense to find fault with her.
After saluting, the noble people and the noble people of Yun saluted Concubine Rong again, and then they sat down separately.
As soon as Nala sat down, she spoke: "Originally, my sister wanted to come to greet the queen's sister, but the queen mother said that my sister's body has not recovered yet, so she didn't let my sister come to disturb her. β
Nala ordered the palace maid who came with her to present a wooden box, and said with a smile: "This is the family letter that Aunt Fujin entrusted her sister to bring to the two sisters before the concubine came to the capital. β
Letter? When I was stunned, Concubine Shuhui couldn't wait to open the wooden box, took out the letter inside and opened it, her face showed an excited look that could not be concealed, I secretly glanced at it, full of Mongolian texts, not long after, Ronggui had finished reading the letter, she handed me the letter and said: "Sister, I miss Eniang so much." β
I took the letter, pretended to read it, tried to show a trace of sadness on my face, I folded the letter again, and said to Concubine Rong: "Did E-Niang say anything?" β
Concubine Rong said: "Auntie said that she misses her two sisters very much, and asked her sister to help her sister more in the future." β
I glanced at her when I heard this, and Concubine Rong looked up without flinching, her eyes full of pride and confidence.
I smiled and said, "I won't have to bother my sister in the future." β
Concubine Rong lowered her eyes with a smile and asked, "What are my sister and the two nobles talking about?" β
I smiled silently and glanced at Ziyun, who replied, "We're talking about Concubine Xian." β
"Concubine Xian?" Concubine Rong snorted coldly, "That fox, what are you doing with her?" β
"Sister," I said, "why don't you seem to like Concubine Xian so much?" β
Concubine Rong said: "Sister Queen, haven't you heard? That fox girl seduced the emperor in front of her fiancΓ©'s funeral hall, otherwise, how could she enter the palace beyond the age of age. β
"Rong Concubine!" I said angrily, "How can such rumors be nonsense. "It's not that you can't say it, but don't say it on my territory, if such a thing comes from Kunning Palace, it's another trouble. This concubine, does she really regard this as her own home?
Concubine Rong smiled: "Who in the palace doesn't know about this matter?" Last night, my sister sent someone to assist in the harem, obviously there was a better candidate, but she was chosen, according to my sister, my sister was also deceived by her appearance. β
A better candidate? I sneered in my heart, and suddenly I didn't have a good impression of Concubine Rong, she is not as good as my relationship with Ronggui and Concubine Jing, we are sisters, aunts and nephews, and she, just the same clan, is not a close person, but she behaves so indifferently, which makes me feel disgusted.
Concubine Shuhui hesitated for a moment and said, "Sister, is Concubine Xian really like that?" β
"Sister," I added a hint of sternness to my tone, "just listen to this kind of rumor, how can it be taken seriously." β
Rong Gui shrank his neck in fright, looking at her appearance, I couldn't help but slow down and said, "Sister just reminded you that if this word reaches the emperor's ears, it will inevitably be another turmoil." β
"Yes." Rong Gui answered, then lowered his head and stopped talking, sometimes I really can't do anything with this cowardly sister.
"Sister don't worry," Concubine Rong said again: "Although the emperor spoils her now, I don't believe that she alone can fight so many of our sisters." After thinking about it, he said hatefully: "And that one is like, a pair of foxes." β
Listening to Concubine Rong's words, I was angry and funny in my heart, presumably Concubine Rong is quite confident in her appearance on weekdays, and she will definitely be able to capture the emperor's heart after entering the palace.
At this time, Ziyun on the side said as if he had made some kind of determination: "Sister Rong, in fact, it seems that she is just tired by Concubine Xian, she is not what you said." β
Concubine Rong snorted, didn't say anything, and I said curiously: "Yun Guiren seems to know a lot about concubines?" β
Ziyun's face was slightly gloomy: "The concubine and Wanru are friends, and the concubine is also an old acquaintance, this time they were selected as a show girl, the concubine was selected because she was over the age of age, and she has been pointed at in the past few days in the primary election, I and Wanru explain her every day, she also made a good sister with us, and then she was selected by the emperor, and the next day she was going to be named a concubine, after the re-election, once I saw Wanru standing at the door of Chuxiu Palace in a daze, so I asked her what was going on, as if she saw Concubine Xian's sedan chair, Concubine Xian obviously saw her, but she didn't talk to her," Speaking of this, Ziyun breathed a sigh of relief rather unevenly, and then said: "Later, when Concubine Xian inherited the favor alone, she recommended Wanru to the emperor, and she was very happy that her sister had not forgotten her, because she was good with her concubines, so she went to tell Concubine Xian to ask the emperor to ...... Summoned the concubines as well......"
Concubine Rong snorted lightly, Ziyun's face was suddenly covered with a layer of redness, and Chen En sat quietly on the side, without blinking his eyes. Ziyun took a breath and continued: "One day, the concubine and Wanru saw Concubine Xian in the imperial garden from afar, as if she told her thoughts to the concubine, and the concubine was shy for a while, so she hid behind the rockery, as if she saw Concubine Xian really talked about it, but Concubine Xian shirked it in every possible way, as if she was in a hurry, saying that Concubine Xian should not monopolize the grace, but Concubine Xian actually said, ......" Speaking of this, Ziyun hesitated, and Concubine Rong said impatiently: "Say it quickly." β
Ziyun said in a low voice: "Concubine Xian said that in recent days, the emperor summoned her, but did not sleep with her, and only accompanied the emperor to chant and write poems every day. β
"Is that so?" I'm a little surprised, Shunzhi's small body won't be able to do it so soon, right? I haven't ...... yet So what!
Ziyun pouted and said, "Does Niangniang also think that this is the excuse of Concubine Xian?" Then I don't know what Concubine Xian said to the emperor, and the emperor has never summoned Wanru since that day. Saying that, she turned to Rong Concubine and said: "Sister Rong Concubine, I have known Wan Wan since childhood, she is sincere and kind, if you treat her well, she will give you her heart, she is not a fox." β
Concubine Rong moved her mouth, didn't speak, and said after a while: "She's not, and so is her sister." β
"I didn't expect Yun Guiren and Concubine Zhen to have a deep personal relationship," I asked while thinking about what she had just said, "When did you just say?" β
Ziyun replied, "It's the fifth day of the first month of this month. β
Fifth ...... Did Wuyunzhu sleep in those days, and when she went to the Jingshi room to check, she knew that she shouldn't lie about this matter, could it be that Shunzhi was "tired"? But in any case, listening to Ziyunyi, it seems that the relationship between Wuyunzhu and Wanru is not as close as they appear.
