Chapter 12: Palace Grievances

Bao Jin got out of the car and caught a glimpse of the majestic and elegant palace in front of him.

So familiar, yet unfamiliar......

She bit her lip slightly, her eyes twinkling, and then she regained her composure.

She bowed her head tamely, and the lotus step moved lightly, following the female officer who guided her.

Today's invasion of Beijing is only a year or two, and the people of Yiying Palace are still using the old people of the previous dynasty, this female official behaves elegantly, and her steps are not slow.

"The emperor has a lot of grace, so he pardoned you for being forbidden, the Celestial Empire is a state of etiquette, no better than you barbarians, don't be ugly in front of the emperor."

Although her voice was soft, her words were not polite, she glanced at Baojin, turned around and muttered, "Strange, I always feel that your face is a little familiar......"

A chuckle appeared on Baojin's lipsβ€”

When she resigned and married, she was only fifteen, after four years of ups and downs, her figure had been greatly reduced, and she had been depressed for a long time, her face and temperament had changed greatly, and in the entire capital, I am afraid that no one would be able to recognize her identity.

Perhaps, the round and pretty face of Baojin has long since dissipated from people's memory......

In less than a moment, the group came to Concubine Yunxian's Jincui Palace.

The female official stopped in front of the dazzling dragon and phoenix cloud pattern wall, raised her face and ordered: "And wait here, I will report to the mother." ”

In the distance, the palace maid who answered greeted her, and as the two walked, there was a faint whisper-

"This is from the sect's workshop, and I don't know what kind of tricks are used...... Sooner or later it's a scourge......"

"My family's virtuous concubine Niangniang is in charge of harem affairs, how can she have the leisure to take care of these little things, just see her side......"

Baojin waited silently with his head down, his eyes like the cold moon of autumn water firmly staring at his toes, as if the tender yellow satin flowers on the silk shoes had infinite mysteries.

Concubine Yunxian......

The drooping black hair covered her sneer-this pseudo-emperor usurped the court, so he added titles to his wives and concubines one by one, and these old people in the palace actually shouted shamelessly!

She remembered the file presented by her subordinates, which specifically mentioned this Concubine Yun Xian.

She is the second lady of the Yun family in Jiangzhou, the second sister of Yun Shi, and the younger sister of Mrs. Xu Ji.

When the puppet emperor rose, the Yun family was able to "discern people", and the old family owner thought that this son was not a thing in the pool, so he overrode public opinion and married his daughter to him as a concubine.

With the respect of the daughter of a famous lord, her daughter was actually a concubine, which was ridiculed by the people of Jiangzhou at that time, but now it seems that it is a very far-sighted investment.

****

"My father's work back then, now it seems that he is really far-sighted......"

Concubine Yun Xian took a sip of the teacup, then put it down gently, and raised her hands and feet to be gentle and elegant, but her voice was faint and there was no praise at all.

"At that time, he said to me: 'I'd rather be a heroic concubine than a mediocre wife', and sure enough, within a few years, I moved into the palace with Banzai, and he also became the ruler of the country."

She smiled slightly, as if with infinite ridicule, and fine lines were faintly visible in the center of her eyebrows.

Ying Hua sat at the bottom and listened respectfully, but she was secretly frightened by her aunt's sarcastic tone.

"Yinghua, I don't know what the eldest sister thinks, she actually sent you to this unsightly place - one by one to the palace, showing that there are many daughters in our family?!"

Concubine Yun Xian has always been known for her low-key humility in the Six Palaces and the emperor's old department, and she never said a word in front of people, so she won the trust of the emperor and the queen, and the power of the harem was entrusted to each other, but now in front of the eldest sister's beloved daughter, the words are extremely sharp.

Although sharp, Xu Yinghua heard the care and worry in her words, she got up to pour tea for her aunt, and said softly: "Auntie, don't be angry, be careful with angina and make ......"

Concubine Yun Xian looked at her, her usually indifferent eyes were full of pain, "Xu Ji was killed by assassins, your brother-in-law also died, and the Xu family is in decline...... Even so, you don't need to sacrifice your lifelong happiness to live in this secluded deep palace! ”

"Auntie, this is my own decision......"

Xu Yinghua bit her lip and said in a low voice: "I have been used to seeing my father's actions since I was a child, men in the world are no different, marrying anyone is just a fate of lust and love, it is better to go to the palace to fight, maybe I can revitalize the lintel." ”

She glanced at Concubine Yun Xian, and smiled a little shyly: "What's more, auntie, you are in charge of the harem, no matter how bad it is, it won't make me suffer." ”

"Silly boy!"

Concubine Yun Xian sighed with hatred: "Do you really think that Banzai trusts and favors me, so I am entrusted with a heavy responsibility?!" ”

She frowned deeply, gritted her teeth and sneered: "The queen mother is busy with state affairs, and she has no time to take care of these harem trivialities, looking at me honestly and duty, so I let me take care of it for her - what kind of power, it's just a waste that people don't want!" ”

"How so?!"

Xu Yinghua's eyes widened in surprise.

Concubine Yun Xian smiled sadly, pointed to the plain hairpin grass on her temples, and a simple silver cordyceps head and said: "I have always been forbearant and low-key, and I don't even dare to wear gold and jade, which is why I won her favor...... Hmph, the emperor's favor! Except for the queen, how could there have been other women in his eyes! ”

She said in a low voice, almost groaning: "In this harem, it is actually a woman's grave, Yinghua, you really came to the wrong place!" ”

Xu Yinghua looked at her aunt crying, and was at a loss, but she heard someone gently knocking on the door under the corridor.

"Who is it?"

Concubine Yun Xian quickly wiped away her tears, and asked calmly as usual.

Outside, it was the voice of the confidant maid, "Niangniang, someone has been transferred from the sect's side, and I am about to wait for Niangniang to see it." ”

"This little thing ......"

Concubine Yun Xian was about to refuse, but she heard Xu Yinghua say: "This is the Princess Yuran who was involved in my family's murder!" ”
