Chapter 24: Hibiscus Frost
The Zerg Palace, the Feiyun Hall and the House of Elders, were in a very tense atmosphere, and at the same time, the Yixiang Palace in the harem was also in a tense atmosphere.
There is a bewitching and beautiful woman sitting cross-legged on the carved beauty couch in the dormitory, which is the Yuan Shu concubine who favors the harem. There was a palace maid kneeling in front of her, and the clothes on the palace maid were obviously not serving in the harem, and the light tea green color seemed to be half colorless.
"You said that His Royal Highness will not pray with the palace this year?" A trace of dissatisfaction flashed in the beautiful eyes of Yuan Shu Guifei, His Royal Highness has been praying with him for five or six years, and it stands to reason that he has already defaulted to himself as the main palace, and the entire harem is also by default. If there is a sudden change this year, won't it become a joke?
"Yes, Lady Concubine. The palace maid's voice trembled a little, and she didn't dare to face this noble concubine, "The slave maid just listened to what His Highness and the elder said. ”
Concubine Yuan Shu used to like others to call herself a concubine Niangniang respectfully, after all, she was the only concubine in this insect palace, but she had been favored for a long time and forgot that her concubine was only a concubine, and the insect queen was the real palace.
The title "Concubine Niangniang" now sounds like a mockery to her. Concubine Yuan Shu put down the teacup fiercely: "You rude palace maid, do you know what will happen if you make a mistake in saying this?"
"Mother, slave didn't ......" The palace maid sobbed, unable to even complete the sentence. Concubine Yuan Shu frowned and waved her hand to signal the maid beside her to drag this unsightly palace maid out, and threw a piece of silver to the palace maid: "Take these silver and go back twice." Don't say this in front of others, otherwise this palace will strip you of the dog's skin. ”
The palace maid trembled and picked up the silver two, and was half-pushed and half-supported by the maidservant and pulled out of Yixiang Palace.
Concubine Yuan Shu pressed her temples and was very distressed, and her personal maid Xiaomei said: "Niangniang, there are six days left to be the Eternal Life Day, if it is really as Yang'er said, what should it be?"
"This palace must not let this kind of thing happen!" "Yuan Shu Guifei clenched her fists, "It's not this palace, it must be other concubines." Then only Concubine De, Concubine Li and Concubine Xian are possible. ”
"Concubine De's status is lowly and difficult to convince the public, Concubine Xian has an empty skin and acts recklessly, only Concubine Li, although she is not as good as her mother, has a prominent family background, and acts generously and methodically. Xiaomei analyzed it carefully, and suddenly seemed to think of something, "Niangniang~"
"What's wrong?" Concubine Yuan Shu looked at Xiaomei, and suddenly understood, "Is it possible, Your Highness wants to marry the insect queen?"
"But Niangniang, it's only been six days, and it's not very likely that you will get married. Speaking of which, it is more likely that Concubine Li will be replaced. Xiaomei hurriedly said.
Concubine Yuan Shu beckoned: "You send a message to the elder brother of the palace, and ask him to check the noble city, no, which women of school age are in the three cities." This palace wants to see who hooked His Highness's soul. ”
"Yes, sis. ”
After leaving Yixiang Palace, Yang'er walked tremblingly for a while, saw that there was no one around, and trotted into a small alley, and came to another palace, Changle Palace. The little palace maid guarding at the door saw that Yang'er didn't report it, so she hurriedly led her in and went straight to the dormitory.
After entering the dormitory, Yang'er saluted the beautiful woman on the main seat: "Concubine Li's mother Wan'an." ”
"Excuse me, give a seat. Concubine Li seemed to be very close to Yang'er and hurriedly ordered someone to move a stool to give a seat, "Yang'er, I haven't seen you in this palace for many days, are you okay in Feiyun Palace?"
Yang'er: "If you go back to your mother, the slave is very good." However, today, His Royal Highness and the elders said that this year's Eternal Life Day will not be with Yuan Shu Guifei. Mother's good days are coming. ”
Concubine Li didn't get very excited, but frowned and said, "Your Highness and Concubine Yuan Shu have been praying together for five or six years, why has it suddenly changed this year?"
"In this huge harem, if it's not Concubine Yuan Shu, isn't it you?" said Yang'er.
"It's not that simple. Concubine Li smiled bitterly, "The reason why this palace entered the palace may not be known to others, is it possible that you have forgotten it?
Yang'er shook her head: "But Niangniang, how can you be in time for only six days?"
"His Highness is the king of a clan, even if it is only for an hour, he can think about it. Concubine Li was full of helplessness, "Now this kind of behavior is just using this palace as a cover." ”
"The whole palace should default to Niangniang, you are the best candidate, the tree is a big move, Niangniang should be careful. Yang'er was worried.
Concubine Li smiled: "It just so happens to give this palace a chance." Concubine Yuan Shu is very jealous, and she will inevitably do something to the palace, so the palace will have a reason to deal with her, after all, since ancient times, palace fights have been a matter between women, and the mother family cannot be reconciled. Even if Concubine Yuan Shu is gone, they can only bear it, just like when Sister Liang was gone, our Jin family was helpless. ”
"Niangniang must be careful, that Yuan Shu Guifei is not easy to deal with. At the beginning, Concubine Yuanliang was taken advantage of by Concubine Yuan Shu because of a moment of negligence and lost her life. Yang'er wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Yang'er, don't be too sad, it's not too early, hurry back to Feiyun Palace, so as not to let people look at it." Concubine Li appeased Yang'er, "The palace has its own plans for everything, you just need to tell the palace useful news, and you can watch more when Concubine Yuan Shu is there." ”
"Yes, sis. Yang'er exited the dormitory, looked at the blue sky and bowed his head and left.
Concubine Li got up and walked to the couch by the window and leaned lazily, the breeze was blowing, Concubine Li closed her eyes and sighed: "Sister, you must bless your sister with success." ”
"Qingxing, where's Bao Hibiscus?" asked Concubine Li.
The personal maid Qing Xing lowered her eyes and replied respectfully: "Niangniang, Bao Jinshuang is weeding in the backyard." ”
"What kind of grass does the flower-like person remove, call her over, and this palace wants to have a good talk with her. Concubine Li held her phoenix eyes.
"Yes. ”
It didn't take long for Qingxing to come in with a woman in coarse cloth. Although the woman was dressed in a coarse cloth dress, her figure and appearance could not be concealed at all. Qingxing took the woman to salute and then withdrew from the dormitory to guard the door, Concubine Li sat up: "Jinshuang." How long have you been in the palace?"
"It's been four years. "Hibiscus Frost's courage is a little small, and she is shrunken.
"I heard that you are a palace maid sent from the slave city?" Concubine Li took a bite of the small fruit on the table next to the soft couch and chewed it carefully.
Bao Jinshuang trembled even more: "Yes, mother." Slaves and maids are lowly in status. ”
Concubine Li threw a small fruit to Bao Jinshuang: "No, you are not lowly. Hongu let you keep your full name, do you know why?"
"The slave doesn't know. Please dial it. ”
"Eat the fruit. Concubine Li didn't answer but urged Bao Hibiscus to eat the fruit, Bao Hibiscus grew up in the slave city since she was a child, and it was common to eat some rotten and smelly fruits, this kind of ruddy, full and fragrant fruit Bao Hibiscus Cream had never seen it, even if it was poisonous, it was worth it. After taking a small bite, the sweet taste went straight to his mouth, and Bao Jinshuang couldn't control it and swallowed it indiscriminately.
Concubine Li didn't laugh at her when she saw her, but just asked, "How does it taste?"
"Hui Niangniang, it tastes very good. ”
"Then do you want to eat more?" said Concubine Li's sweet voice with a hint of bewilderment.
Hibiscus was a little uneasy...... Living in a slave city for many years has taught her patience and humility. "Do you think you're not qualified?" Concubine Li continued when she saw that Bao Jinshuang had nothing to say, "Don't worry, Your Highness has always been magnanimous and will not care about the identity of the concubine, you look at Concubine De, she is even more humble than you, she came out of the Red Cloud Tower in the slave city and climbed to the position of the concubine of the imperial city, and after giving birth to a princess, her status is even more stable, and she enjoys all the glory and wealth." ”
Bao Jinshuang was completely bewitched by Concubine Li's words, Hongyun Tower is the dirtiest place of the Zerg, since that Concubine De can do it, then why can't she do it, obviously she is actually very beautiful, isn't it? Isn't it because she is very beautiful that she was bought to the Imperial City! Yes, the women in the Imperial City are all His Royal Highness, and she is no exception!
"Mother, I want to eat more. "Hibiscus Frost has faded, and there is endless greed and lust in her eyes.
Concubine Li smiled, and finally took the bait, Hibiscus. "Then the palace will give you a ride, and you will have to repay the palace in the future. Concubine Li quietly swept over Bao Jinshuang's lower abdomen, and her weak vitality was enough.
"Xie Niangniang. ”
Sure enough, two days later, Fei Yuan issued an order to seal a new concubine - a precious person, although the position is not high, but it is said that the precious person is very beautiful, and the first time I was lucky, I was successfully pregnant, just wait for the successful delivery, I can ascend to the sky in one step.
Concubine Yuan Shu of Yixiang Palace was already angry: "Another lowly woman! Okay, it turned out to be you! Your Highness actually abandoned the palace for you! How can such a lowly bloodline inherit the excellent royal bloodline, isn't that daughter of Concubine De just an ordinary child." Another one! What the hell is Your Highness doing!"
Xiaomei comforted Concubine Yuan Shu: "Niangniang, you are angry." The general has already made a secret medicine, and if you eat it, you will be able to appear full of vitality. In a few days, it will be the Eternal Life Day, and after praying for blessings, you only need to take it secretly, and then find a doctor to find a doctor who is unwell, and poke out your energetic things, Your Highness will definitely pay attention to you. ”
"But that's just a fake, it looks energetic and infertile. Concubine Yuan Shu felt that this plan could not be shaken for a long time.
Xiaomei said with a smile: "Niangniang, the general has already arranged everything for you, he secretly captured a human race woman and came back to reform, that woman is exactly the same as you now, we just need to let His Royal Highness combine with her, and the child that woman is pregnant with will not be yours at that time?"
"Not bad. My brother was really thoughtful. Concubine Yuan Shu finally had a smile on her face. It is difficult for the Zerg to give birth to offspring, especially the higher the noble bloodline, the worse the fertility ability, if you can successfully do this scene, not only may you become a worm queen in one step, but your mother can also obtain supreme glory. The noble city inherited most of the women who gave birth to the prince with the vitality of Fukuzawa, what a glory!
