Chapter 6, Section 17 What about the new concubine?

Seeing that Yunluo was making a fuss and refusing to leave, I had to get up from the quilt again, put on my coat and face the door while saying, "Xiaocui, let her in." ”

Yun Luo, who stumbled in, saw that the emperor was still lying on the bed, and I was sitting on the edge of the bed, with a glint of jealousy that could not be concealed in my eyes.

At the same time, I noticed that her cheeks were flushed, and as she approached, the smell of alcohol rushed to her nostrils.

It turned out to be drinking too much.

I'll just say, Yunluo is also a beautiful girl, why is she so out of shape today, forcibly breaking into the palace late at night?

Yunluo rushed all the way to the bed. I looked at her posture, as if she was about to jump on the bed and climb into the emperor's quilt, and hurriedly blocked in front of the emperor and said, "The concubine is visiting so late, I don't know what to say?" ”

In normal times, she would still say a few polite words to me. But today, I don't know if she was really drunk or pretending to be crazy with wine, she actually reached out to push me away, and shouted, "I'm here to find the emperor, I want to tell the emperor a confidential matter, don't get in the way." ”

Seeing that she was different from usual, Xiao Cui was afraid of making some jokes, so she hurriedly asked the palace maids to go out, and ran to close the door again, and then came over to greet Yunluo and said, "If the concubine has anything to say, please sit down and talk about it." ”

Yun Luo waved her arm and shouted, "You go away, I want to talk to the emperor." ”

is impartial, and it just hits Xiao Cui's face.

When did Xiao Cui swallow her anger? Immediately, his face was full of anger, and he grabbed her two arms and said, "If the mother is drunk too much and comes to play drunk, then the slave has no choice but to offend." Please go back to the palace, it's late, and our emperor will get up at five o'clock tomorrow morning to go to the morning court. I don't have time to accompany my mother's madness. ”

Yun Luo didn't listen, and when she heard it, she simply became "crazy". While struggling desperately, he made a big noise, "My family bullied me." Now even minions dare to bully me. Your Majesty, look, this dead minion. She grabbed me like this, she wanted to beat me, didn't the emperor care? ”

Seeing that the emperor just looked impatiently and didn't say anything to stop it, she became more and more heartbroken and said, "Does the emperor really not care about Yunluodi's life or death at all?" If the emperor doesn't like Yunluo. Why did you want me in the first place? We also once had a child, did the emperor forget it? ”

Hearing her mention the child again, the emperor's brows furrowed tightly, and he was going to persuade her twice, but he didn't want to deal with it.

Xiaocui and I tugged with her for a long time before finally pressing her down on a chair and sitting down.

Xiao Cui hurriedly went out to prepare the decanting soup. I kept persuading and reassuring her at last, and saw that she was finally willing to sit down and no longer drunk and crazy. Only then did the emperor ask, "What's wrong?" ”

Hearing the emperor ask her, her tears fell again, and she cried and said, "They don't want me anymore." I found someone else to replace me, and I became a waste in their eyes. Emperor. Why can't you just go and see me? As long as the emperor is a little nicer to me. When they come to me occasionally, they don't dare do this to me. Emperor. I beg you to accompany the concubines in Qingcui Palace, as long as the emperor is willing to go, even if it is only once, it will save the concubines. ”

I heard something in her voice, and the update was the fastest.

After waiting for the bowl to be put down and listening to her burp a few times, she asked with a pleasant face, "Niangniang said, they don't want you anymore, and they found someone to replace you, we didn't understand, who didn't want Niangniang?" Who are you looking for? ”

She didn't answer me, but just looked at the emperor and asked, "I heard that the Queen Mother invited you to Changle Palace tonight, isn't it?" ”

The emperor nodded.

Yun Luo asked again: "Then did you see a very beautiful woman in the queen mother's bedroom?" The Queen Mother also told you that it was her niece, that is, the daughter of my eldest uncle, Mrs. Yang

The emperor lazily replied, "There is such a person." ”

Yun Luo said anxiously, "Your Majesty, don't fall for that woman." I've inquired clearly, this woman is not the daughter of the eldest uncle at all, they lied to you! This woman was actually a prostitute they found from Yangzhou. ”

Xiaocui and I opened our mouths wide in surprise, and even the emperor sat up from the pillow.

We all listened to Yunluo's down. Yun Luo said angrily, "They even lied to me, saying that this woman is the daughter of the eldest uncle's concubine. Because of the jealousy of the eldest aunt, she drove the pregnant concubine out of the house, and more than ten years later, the eldest uncle found the daughter. At first, I believed it and thought she was pitiful, so I hurriedly called her sister and gave her my jewelry to wear. When the Queen Mother took her into Changle Palace, I knew that something was wrong. It turned out that they wanted to use her to seduce the emperor. Later, I inquired with the old servant of the family, and learned that there was no such thing as a concubine being kicked out. ”

This is not impossible. In all dynasties, there have been many cases of collecting beautiful women and then giving them to those in power, but, "Even if this girl was not born to Mrs. Yang's concubine, how do you know that she is a prostitute?" ”

"I asked someone to investigate the place, she is the most famous brothel in Yangzhou Chunyu Lou red card, the flower name is Little Pink Butterfly, in Yangzhou is very famous. It was redeemed by a mysterious guest for a high price only two months ago. ”

"Then you can't be sure that the ransomed prostitute is the one in the Queen Mother's bedroom, do you have any evidence?"

"Yes, the emperor should have also seen it, this fake niece has a beauty mole on her forehead. The famous prostitute in Yangzhou also has such a famous beauty mole. ”

I smiled and said, "Beauty with a beauty mole is not unique. Perhaps, it was just a coincidence. ”

Yunluo looked at me and said, "But Niangniang doesn't think that there is a red-card prostitute missing from Yangzhou, and there is just one more beautiful woman from Yangzhou in Yangfu, and the time of her appearance coincides." Basically, she set off from Yangzhou to Luoyang, and she should have arrived at Yangfu in those days. Plus that mole, it's too much of a coincidence, isn't it? ”

At this point, we've pretty much taken her word for it.

Then. The emperor yawned and said, "Yunluo, don't talk nonsense about things without evidence." And it doesn't matter to us whether she's a prostitute or not. Your uncle wants to recognize a prostitute as his daughter, that's his freedom. I'm sleepy, and I'll have to go to the morning court tomorrow. Go back.

Yun Luo said unwillingly: "But my eldest uncle's purpose in recognizing her as his daughter is to confuse the emperor, and the emperor said unhappily: "Do you think I am such an easily deceived person?" ”

"Well, the concubine didn't think so."

"That's good. So what are you worried about? Anyway, you can't control who your uncle wants to recognize as his daughter. If you doubt her origins and disdain to associate with her, just ignore her. ”

After the emperor finished speaking, he slipped into the quilt from the pillow and closed his eyes. Yun Luo knew that the emperor was driving people away. A hint of gloom and sourness suddenly appeared in his eyes. looked at the emperor on the bed, looked at me again, and said helplessly, "Then, the emperor and the mother should rest, Yunluo is really embarrassed to disturb so late." Yun Luo just came to remind the emperor that she didn't want the emperor to be planted in the hands of a lowly prostitute. "Okay, go back."

Yun Luo reluctantly walked to the door. He turned around and said, "Your Majesty, the birthday of the Zhao family's Taijun, will you attend?" ”

The emperor said, "Probably." ”

She advised: "Then please the emperor must pay more attention." Don't fall for them again. ”

After she left, I smiled and said to the emperor, "She said don't fall for them again." That's a wonderful word. This illustrates. She also confessed, the incident from last time. It was the emperor who took her place. ”

The emperor only replied to me with a very light "um". When I blew out the light and got under the covers, I found him asleep.

The next morning, after sending the emperor to the morning court, I said to Xiaocui, "You accompany me to Changle Palace, Shanwan stays here to watch the family." ”

Xiaocui and Shan Wan both smiled and said, "Niangniang, do you want to meet the beauty from Yangzhou?" I said, "yes, go talk to her." ”

Whether it is a small jasper or a famous prostitute in a green house, it should not be difficult to distinguish. Let's talk about it, and you'll find out.

It's a pity that in the Changle Palace of the Empress Dowager Xiao Yang, I didn't see any new beauties.

After sitting for a long time and saying a bunch of bland and tasteless polite words, I finally couldn't help but ask, "I heard that Mrs. Yang's daughter came to the Niangniang Palace as a guest?" Why didn't you see it? Empress Dowager Xiao Yang's eyes immediately lit up and said, "The emperor told you?" Shang was full of praise for her, saying that he had never seen such a beautiful person. Niangniang, you also know that the emperor has always paid little attention to the appearance of girls, so I was really surprised to hear him say that yesterday. I couldn't help but make a special trip to see it today. ”

Empress Dowager Xiao Yang looked at me suspiciously: "Did the emperor really say so?" But when the emperor was here last night, Fluttershy sat with her, and the emperor didn't pay attention to her. It was the two of us talking, and Fluttershy sat on the cold bench. ”

"Well, that's the emperor's shyness. The Queen Mother, you also know that the emperor is a person who recognizes life, and he will not talk to people who meet for the first time. After a long time, it is well cooked. ”

I wonder if she'll believe me when I say that? It is a fact that the emperor recognizes life, and it is not surprising that the emperor will secretly pay attention to a great beauty. But the problem is that when this comes out of my mouth, I am afraid that the credibility will be greatly reduced.

Alas, it's only my fault that I've always been jealous. The emperor has not been favored for so many years, and everyone has put the account on my head, thinking that it is due to my jealousy. The true love of the royal couple stays together, but no one believes it.

Sure enough, her eyes became more and more confused, but she joked half-truthfully, "Concubine Jia, why are you talking like a different person today?" I haven't seen you so generous in my daily life, did you suddenly think about it, and realized that it was wrong to dominate the emperor alone and make the royal heir thin? ”

"Yes, yes, the concubine used to be young and vigorous. Now seeing that the emperor is getting older every year, the emperor is always the only one, and the concubine's belly has not moved, and she is also anxious. ”

Empress Dowager Xiao Yang already believed what I said a little at this time, but she still asked tentatively, "You mean, you don't object to the emperor accepting a new concubine?" ”

Of course against!

But Akirina is better than you doing ghosts behind your backs. The last time the emperor went to Yang's mansion, Yunluo had a big belly. If Fluttershy of unknown origin loses her belly again, things will be in trouble. Why don't I give you a reassuring pill first, so that you don't jump off the wall in such a hurry. Don't think that the emperor's going to the Yang Mansion is the only opportunity to calculate him, and he will resort to any means that I can't think of.

Anyway, the emperor won't touch it, and it's not the same as Yunluo, who is locked in the palace every day and gets moldy.

Seeing that I bowed my head and was silent, Empress Dowager Xiao Yang sneered and said, "If you really want the emperor to accept a new concubine, you can't accept it, right?" ”

I hurriedly replied, "No, the concubine is thinking, what title to give the new concubine?" Yunluo and I, as well as the other two, are not canonized. ”

No, we haven't been sealed yet, so she'll be canonized as soon as she comes in.

"Well......" she choked up.

With such a sensitive issue, she has no other way than to bypass it.

"Let her enter the palace first, and let's talk about the canonization later."

"Then do as the mother says."

In other words, this Fluttershy of unknown origin can enter the palace, but she is not.

A woman in the palace, without any title, and no longer gets the favor of the emperor, will soon be completely forgotten like a grass in the deep palace.

Seeing her snickering joy, I struck while the iron was hot and said, "Zhao Lao Taijun's 80th birthday, can the concubine go and kowtow to Lao Taijun a few times?" The old lady has the grace of nurturing the queen mother, the emperor is very grateful, and the concubines are also very admired, if you don't kowtow a few times, you always feel uneasy in your heart. ”

"Uh......"

Empress Dowager Xiao Yang was embarrassed. She knew that the people of the Yang Mansion would definitely not welcome me, but for the sake of me having just agreed to take Fluttershy as a concubine, she couldn't refuse to her face.

In the end, she finally smiled reluctantly and said, "Then you can go with the emperor." ”

That's great! I'll personally accompany the emperor to see what else you can do.
