Chapter 687: Don't show weakness

The queen was very happy this morning because she was talking to Hongluan and Qi Zhaorong, and it took nearly an hour for a breakfast, which naturally made the concubines waiting outside wait a little longer; It is unknown whether they resent the queen, and they did not dare to resent the queen, because the queen really did not have much prestige, but several of them were extremely dissatisfied with Hongluan.

The concubine, who couldn't sink when she heard the word please, immediately stood up, but when she saw that Concubine Hua, Concubine Hui and Concubine Xian didn't move, she was a little embarrassed and sat back and didn't stand and looked at Concubine Hua and the three of them; These concubines who stood up naturally all fell into the eyes of Xiao Pingzi and Xiao Shunzi standing outside the door.

Concubine Hui and Concubine Xian both sat steadily, and it seemed that letting them sit until night would not make them look impatient; They didn't move because Concubine Hua didn't move, although Concubine Hua entered the palace late and was canonized late, it should be Concubine Hua who respected them before they came, but the two of them had to look at Concubine Hua first when they were doing things now, and they would never rush to get in front of her.

Concubine Hua helped the palace people to stand up, and looked at Concubine Hui and Concubine Xian with a smile: "Sisters, let's greet the queen mother with all the sisters." Her words were soft, and her appearance was on the sweet side, especially the dimples at the corners of her lips made her look like a little girl with no scheming at all; But when she said that the word please An bit slightly, it did not escape the ears of the two concubines, of course they knew that Concubine Hua was not as cute and innocent as she looked, and they also knew that she looked down on the queen.

Concubine Hui stood up: "Sister Hua, please first." She took a step back and asked Concubine Xian to accompany her, but Concubine Xian pushed her to keep up with Concubine Hua; The three of them entered in one after another, and the other concubines followed each other in order according to their ranks, although there were really many palace people who were waiting, but there was not much noise.

Hongluan saw at a glance that the gorgeous woman who came in at a glance could hardly hide her sweet and cute, and her appearance was six or seven points similar to Ning Cairen, and she didn't need to guess to know that she was the most popular Concubine Hua in the palace now; She sat down and took the tea handed over by the palace people on the side, and gently placed it in front of the queen, with no intention of getting up at all.

When Concubine Hua saw her in Hongluan, she also recognized Hongluan at a glance, who she had never met: even if there were three people sitting on it, her eyes fell on Hongluan's body; When she looked at Hongluan, she said to the queen in her mouth: "Concubine, please say hello to the queen, the queen Chitose Chitose Chitose" She said very slowly, her voice was crisp and good, and she smiled, without any disrespect to the queen, but her body stood up straight, and her knees never bent down a point.

No matter how much the queen made her look down on her, but she sat in that seat, so she had to come to worship every day, and she could worship with peace of mind: because she did not worship the woman named Yuerong, but the queen's position; In other days, when she sits in that seat, she will also accept the great worship of all the concubines in the palace, which is extremely normal and deserved.

But how could she meet a lady from a dignified official family, a second-class concubine in the palace, to a palace slave who was only a fifth-grade concubine? She was waiting for Hongluan and Qi Zhaorong to leave their seats to avoid it, and I believe they would avoid it too-how could two people from untouchable backgrounds dare to be her second-class concubines? Wouldn't it cost them their lives?

But after her words were finished slowly, Hongluan still sat as steady as Mount Tai, and the fingers that peeled the orange for the queen did not tremble at all, and she never glanced at the concubines who entered the palace again, and it seemed that she did not hear Concubine Hua's words, and did what she did leisurely; There was no one around, and he didn't put Concubine Hua in front of him in his eyes at all.

And Qi Zhaorong was different, for the first time, she had a seat to sit in front of the queen, but after Concubine Hua opened her mouth with a smile, she almost immediately stood up to avoid it; After seeing Hongluan's composure, she forced herself to lower her head and stop looking at Concubine Hua, but she didn't have the heart to do anything; In the end, smart people know how to hide clumsy, and now she peels fruit will only make people find her timidity, so she simply caged her hands and looked at her nose and heart and sat still.

The queen looked straight at Concubine Hua with a bit of majesty in her eyes - at least that's what the queen herself thought; Although she is not an extremely smart person, she is also very aware of Concubine Hua's contempt for her, but she has never been able to catch Concubine Hua's handle, and she can't think of a good idea to give Concubine Hua a disadvantage; Today, she finally had a chance, how could she let Concubine Hua go like this: "Well, this palace has been waiting for you for some time." ”

Concubine Hui and Concubine Xian and the others were very embarrassed, because Concubine Hua at the front said that she wanted to say goodbye, and even after Chitose finished speaking, she just didn't bow down: So is it better for them to stand or kneel? After the two glanced at each other, they had to give the concubines behind them a look, and they took the lead in saying loudly: "The concubines and others ask the queen mother to say goodbye, and the queen mother is a thousand years old and a thousand years old."

Get up in the morning and ask for an encore this time is a great etiquette in the palace, which is equivalent to the emperor's early dynasty accepting the worship of hundreds of officials, although there are only two sentences that have not changed for a thousand years plus three kneeling and nine knocks, but it is not allowed to make a mistake of half a point, otherwise it is a big crime: people who do not worship the queen are not only eyes but also have no queen, that is simply no royal in their eyes, almost complicity in crime.

Concubine Xian and the others spoke very slowly, they also looked up at Hongluan, no one ignored Hongluan's existence, although she was just sitting on the guest seat, although she was sitting on an ordinary palace chair, although she was sitting further back than the queen, but the person everyone saw at first sight was not the queen, but Hongluan.

Concubine Xian and Concubine Hui both know Hongluan, and they have teamed up to deal with difficulties together, so they can't help but give Hongluan a look at it at the moment and let her get up and avoid it: Now the palace is no longer the situation before Hongluan left, although it has only been more than half a month, but it has almost changed dramatically; It's better to avoid Concubine Hua for now, which is also the best policy.

But Hongluan was still quietly peeling her oranges, and she didn't lift her eyelids, of course, she wouldn't see the eyes of Concubine Xian and others, and even if she did, she wouldn't do it, because she was different from Concubine Xian and others: she had already torn her face with the Empress Dowager and the people of the Shangguan family, and now she would lose to Concubine Hua in terms of momentum, that is, she was afraid of the Shangguan family and the Empress Dowager's expression-how could she show weakness?

Because showing weakness will not let the Shangguan family and the Empress Dowager let her go, it is already a dead end, and she really has no need to fuel Shangguan Fenghua's arrogance; On the contrary, she just wanted to give Shangguan Fenghua something ugly, so that the Empress Dowager knew that she was restrained, and she didn't force her too hard.

This book will not end for the time being, because the plot of the line has not yet reached the end of the time, and it will not be overwhelmed by the new book, "There is a Phoenix" will continue to be updated with quality and quantity, of course, I also hope that you can go to the end of the new book.
