Chapter 110: Concubine Qi on a par with each other
Nian Yingxi is not a nosy person, otherwise she wouldn't have followed those secret guards to see the excitement last night, and her current questioning was just because she was curious, curious about the mentality of this man named Mo Xiu.
She is a killer herself, and like the secret guards here, she is a person who wants to live a life without seeing the light, so she understands the pain and suffering they endure better than anyone else, and of course she also understands that the master is the whole faith of living for people like them.
Therefore, she was even more curious about why the Mo Cultivator still showed no signs of resistance after Xuan Yuchen killed him, and even helped Xuan Yuchen with his errands, and sent her back to her courtyard obediently.
In the face of Nian Yingxi's various questions, Mo Xiu still didn't answer a word, in fact, even if he wanted to, he couldn't say it, because when Nian Yingxi's words fell, he had already spurted out a mouthful of blood, and he collapsed to the back window with exhaustion.
The blood splattered out like splashing ink on the window frame and the ground, and Nian Yingxi calmly walked to Mo Xiu's side, and condescendingly projected an indifferent gaze at him.
But when she met Mo Xiu's gaze that was calmer than her and more dead than her, she was suddenly stunned for a moment, and then when she came back to her senses again, Mo Xiu had closed her eyes motionless on the ground quietly.
The stunned in her eyes turned into surprise, Nian Yingxi suddenly evoked a smile, in the face of the collapse of faith, not all people can maintain enough calm and silence to deal with it, she really admires this man a little now.
Xuanguo Imperial Palace, Rongxi Palace.
In the quiet Rongxi Palace, the aroma of food wafted away, and the palace maid standing on one side neatly lowered her head and intertwined her hands in front of her, waiting for the master to call at any time.
In the middle hall, behind the screen, the well-dressed Concubine Xi was sitting on a round stool, the tactful and soft orchid fingers touched the sideburns around her ears from time to time, she was afraid that an extra hair would destroy her today's careful dressing, she had a smile on her lips that could not be hidden, and there was a little expectation in her eyes.
Not long after, Li Quanfu ran in from the courtyard with his waist up, turned around the screen, and first knelt on the ground, and then put his heart in his throat and said carefully, "Concubine Xi, I just received a rumor from Gonggong Gui that the emperor will not come to Rongxi Palace for breakfast today." β
"What!" Concubine Xi, who had been waiting for a morning, inevitably wrinkled her eyebrows in disbelief, "Could it be that Concubine Qi got in the way and pulled the emperor to Yuehua Palace?" β
Concubine Xi's maiden name is Bian Zhen, and she is the second daughter of Bian Yonghui, a civilian official of the second rank of the dynasty.
Although Concubine Qi's father is just a second-grade official in the court, far less than Concubine Xi's father's status in the court, but this Concubine Qi entered the palace almost with Concubine Xi, and then she was almost a concubine who rose up on her feet and feet, so Concubine Qi's status in this harem is on par with Concubine Xi, and Concubine Qi's temperament is too straightforward and spicy, and she doesn't eat the different sets of Concubine Xi's appearance at all, not only does she not put Concubine Xi in her eyes at all, but she is also fearless about Concubine Xi's power.
When enjoying the flowers once, Concubine Xi, who had long been unpleasant to Concubine Qi, deliberately sprinkled the body of Concubine Qi with the presence of other concubines, and Concubine Qi was helpless even if she was ten thousand unhappy in her heart.
But what Concubine Xi never expected was that Concubine Qi not only did not forbear, but also directly attacked her, although the matter was calmed down under the kind words and persuasion of other concubines, and the two of them were completely concluded from then on.
Li Quanfu, who was kneeling on the ground, kowtowed and denied Concubine Xi's words, "Back to Concubine Xi's words, this matter doesn't seem to have anything to do with Concubine Qi today, the slave just heard from other little eunuchs who were waiting in the Chengqian Hall that the emperor's face has been bad since he got down from the court." β
Hearing that it wasn't because of Concubine Qi's hands, Concubine Xi's complexion eased a lot, she lowered her head and carefully savored Li Quanfu's words just now, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously again, "Have you heard any letters, what is the emperor's bad face for?" β
"This ......" Li Quanfu hesitated for a long time, and then simply lay his body on the ground, "How can the emperor's affairs be inquired about by the minions?" β
"That's it!" Concubine Xi impatiently took out a piece of silver from her arms and still found it on the ground, "Hurry up and say, what happened to the court today." "Li Quanfu is the old man who is serving Concubine Xi, how can Concubine Xi not know his greedy and cheap nature?
Sure enough, Li Quanfu, who was lying on the ground, saw the silver shining silver sideways, and secretly grinned, and then kowtowed to Concubine Xi again, and then said slowly, "According to those little eunuchs who served the Chengqian Palace, this morning in the court, all the ministers collectively played again, and unified the caliber to make the emperor think twice about the future, but the emperor insisted on not changing his mind after the establishment, not only sent a cruel word, who will deduct a year's salary for this matter, but also let the Ministry of Rites Sun prepare to marry the sedan chair." , said that the new queen must enter the palace the day after tomorrow and begin to learn the etiquette of the palace. As he spoke, he took advantage of Concubine Xi's frowning to put the silver into his sleeve, the affairs of the palace had nothing to do with him being a slave and half a penny, all he cared about was whether the gamble tonight would be big or small.
However, compared to Concubine Xi, who has always been favored, Li Quanfu's words at this moment undoubtedly pierced her heart, she has never seen the emperor so attentive to a woman, and even insisted on marrying this Nian Yingxi despite the opposition of all the ministers in the court, she really doesn't understand, where did this fool in Xuanguo's mouth charm the emperor's three souls and seven spirits, so that the emperor has to make this woman the queen!
Concubine Xi, who was extremely jealous, glanced sideways at the delicate dishes of a few dwarves beside her, and finally waved her hand angrily, directly lifting the dwarf table on the soft couch to the ground.
Li Quanfu, who was kneeling on the ground, didn't even cover the silver hot, but was splashed by the sudden splashing of the broken bowl of vegetable soup, and even rubbed it towards another clean place in fright, lowered his head and didn't dare to squeak, and kept hoping that Concubine Xi could coax herself out quickly.
"Yo! Early in the morning, Concubine Xi is so lively here, and those who don't know that Concubine Xi is still an early morning exercise! A voice with a snarky laugh came down the doorway into the room.
With the ridicule, the two figures walked into the Rongxi Palace, the woman headed by a pair of water-blue satin chrysanthemum soft-soled shoes, wearing a water-blue Jingli long skirt, her long hair was pulled up into a flying moon auspicious sideburns behind her head, revealing a beautiful goose egg face and a pair of sharp eyebrows, the long willow eyes showed a bad light, and the red lips with the big red dyed paper were slightly raised, and she pulled out a semi-arc like a smile.
Li Quanfu, who was kneeling on the ground, saw that the woman stopped beside him, and hurriedly said hello, "Concubine Qi is well." β
Listening to the voice, Concubine Qi lowered her eyes slightly and looked to her side, and when she saw Li Quanfu who was dressed in vegetable soup, she couldn't help but laugh again, "What's wrong with this palace, it turns out that Concubine Xi is teaching the slaves!" β
Concubine Xi, who didn't want to be seen by Concubine Qi, saw that Concubine Qi had not listened to her secret voice since she entered the house, and even saved her fake smile, so she asked directly, "I don't know how Concubine Qi came over, if there is nothing to do, please go back, the palace is very tired, and I want to rest for a while." β
"Huh...... Concubine Xi can really fall asleep! Concubine Qi raised her eyebrows, picked up a handkerchief and covered her low smile red lips, "Now it has been spread all over the harem, saying that the emperor likes this Queen Jiaxi very much, not only ignoring the obstruction of other officials, but also advancing the day when Queen Jiaxi entered the palace." β
"So what?" Concubine Xi still had a cold face silently, and while her heart was clear, she sneered, "The emperor has already issued a holy decree, and the concubines in the harem must not interfere in the government affairs, although the palace does not know where Concubine Qi heard it, but I still have to advise it, it is better to point this to the palace, otherwise if any mouth does not pass the door to the emperor's ears, this matter will not be easy to do." She was still thinking about what kind of wind blew Concubine Qi just now, it turned out that Concubine Qi just heard about the early chaoshang, and now she is using this reason to make herself a fire, but she is indeed a fire, but she is not for others to see jokes, want to see her jokes? It's naΓ―ve.
"This palace is a kind heart, since Concubine Xi doesn't appreciate it, forget it." Concubine Qi was used to Concubine Xi moving the emperor out at every turn, and now seeing that Concubine Xi was thinking again, she couldn't help but turn around with a smile, "Lan Shui is gone, don't delay Concubine Xi's dream." β
The personal maid who followed Concubine Qi bowed down towards Concubine Xi, and then followed Concubine Qi out of Rongxi Palace slowly.
It wasn't until there was a distance from the Rongxi Palace behind him that Lan Shui whispered in Concubine Qi's ear, "Niangniang, aren't we here to see Concubine Xi's jokes, why haven't we seen Concubine Xi angry, Niangniang left in such a hurry?" β
Concubine Qi turned her eyebrows and glanced at the blue water beside her, and suddenly laughed, "How can Concubine Xi's temperament not be understood?" No matter how angry she is, she will never let it show it and let us see her jokes, so it's good if the words are heard, as for who is angry and who is angry, let's just understand it in our hearts. β
Lan Shui nodded as if he didn't understand, and suddenly remembered the chatter of a group of palace maids in the past few days, and hurriedly spoke again, "Isn't Niangniang really angry that the emperor is going to establish the future?" The slave maid has heard of this new queen......"
"Blue water!" Without waiting for Lan Shui's words to finish, Concubine Qi interrupted sharply, and after Lan Shui finished speaking, her sharp eyes just now suddenly looked at the road in the distance and drifted away, "The most taboo in the harem is the sole favor, this is the rule set by the ancestors, not to mention that even if there is no such queen Jiaxi today, and the future does not know where to fight another queen, there are so many women in this world, if you really compare this real child, how can you finish the comparison?" β
