Originally, several femme fatales in the palace were looking forward to Concubine De's death this time, and Yonghe Palace could have a good life for others without this woman who was a fox and a charming lord. Unexpectedly, Concubine De died nine times before giving birth, but she was blessed by the Buddha at the moment of delivery, and she was safe and sound, Su Mala asked the doctor in private, if Concubine De can still give birth in the future, the doctor nodded and said: "If it is properly maintained, it is not difficult, but the mother is gradually getting older, if it is a long-term plan, it is naturally best not to give birth." ”

And although the delivery went smoothly, the mother was weak after all, and she gradually became more energetic after two days, but every time she watched the nursing mother feeding the little brother, she couldn't help crying, Huanchun and Mrs. Wuya both knew that she was thinking about the sixth elder brother and the queen mother, it was really just ten days away, and the queen mother couldn't see Du Lanqi regenerate the next brother with her own eyes.

Because of the national funeral, there can be no celebration in the palace, the little brother is very low-key, and the palaces have given some gifts, only Concubine Hui, who is now in charge of the affairs of the palace, came to watch the ceremony.

After all, Yonghe Palace and Changchun Palace did not really tear their faces face to face, there is always politeness when they meet, Concubine Hui entered the inner hall to see Lan Qi after watching the ceremony, more than ten years have passed in a flash, Concubine Hui still remembers her feelings in front of the Zhongcui Palace, but those feelings seem to have never happened in front of the woman in front of her.

The alternation of the four seasons in the deep palace is never the flowers and red leaves and yellow, but the ups and downs of the palaces and courtyards, but all this has never happened in the Yonghe Palace.

"Sister Hui has been working hard lately, I heard that Sister Rong has not seen well, and I can't leave the bed, otherwise I have to visit her." Lan Qi is very polite, even if she is extremely disgusted with the woman in front of her, as long as Xuan Ye stays with her for a day, she will not do anything to embarrass Xuan Ye, and because the death of the sixth elder brother is not directly related to Concubine Hui, it is also said that Lan Qi can leave some affection for her.

Concubine Hui saw Lan Qi's politeness, and her heart was also relieved, and she sat down on the side and said, "Sister Rong has been in charge of the affairs of the Six Palaces, if she doesn't faint directly this time, I'm afraid she will have to hold on." We're not young anymore, sometimes she doesn't listen to some words to persuade her, you see her later, it's better to persuade more. ”

Lan Qi nodded, at this time, the little brother who had been washing three times outside was brought in, and the nurse sent the little brother into the arms of Concubine De, and said happily: "Little brother doesn't cry or make trouble, how can such a big person be so calm." ”

"You make me happy, what can you see if you land for three days?" Lan Qi didn't care about the flattering words, looked down at the son in his arms, and still remembered the appearance of Yinzuo when he was born, and now he looks at Xiao Fourteen, and his two brothers are not like him, but he looks like Wen Xian, and he can't help laughing in his heart, I don't know if this kid will be born with a girl's temper in the future, or her big girl will look like a tomboy in the future.

Concubine Hui watched from the sidelines, and couldn't help but envy in her heart, counting the fourth elder brother, Concubine De now has a pair of biological sons, a pair of biological princesses, and then an adopted son Thirteen elder brothers, except for Concubine Yi, almost no one can compare with her, and Concubine Yi is just serving the emperor on the couch and is fortunate to get the dragon seed, although the blessing is good, the grace is above, and even the Wu Ya clan can't reach a single hair.

Mrs. Wu Ya came in from outside, blessed Concubine Hui, and stood on the side of the couch and said to her daughter: "Little brother is just washing three times, and the concubine should also leave the palace, there is no rule for staying in the palace for a long time, and please take care of your body." ”

Concubine Hui said on the side: "It's okay for Madame to stay for a few more days, the palace is busy, and I don't have time to take care of Concubine De's sister, you stay in the palace to take care of it, the emperor is at ease outside, and our sisters are also at ease." Mrs. Wu Ya smiled modestly: "The palace rules are strict, the concubines don't dare to disturb the girls, the weather is very good today, and the sky is still bright when I leave the palace at this moment." ”

Lan Qi saw that her mother had made up her mind, and knew that it was useless for her to keep it, and she said it at this moment, obviously to show Concubine Hui, although she had never mentioned the rights and wrongs in the palace to her mother, but Lan Ying often goes in and out now, and knows a lot of things, and it is inevitable that she will not reveal it to her mother, it must be like this, so that she has the heart to protect herself.

"E-Niang, please rest when you go back, you've worked hard for the past few days." Lan Qi agreed with a smile, and asked Huanchun to prepare to send Eniang out of the palace, Concubine Hui was polite again and again, and she must let people prepare a soft sedan chair to send Mrs. Wuya, Lan Qi saw her like this, and she didn't want to be embarrassed by Concubine Hui's face, so she let her mother agree.

Huanchun held the sedan chair all the way to send the lady out of the palace, watching the lady go out of the palace smoothly, only to turn back with peace of mind, all the way to the little palace maid around him to say a few words, because of the palace Su, the voice is very small, with his head down along the corner of the wall, when he turned the intersection, the little palace maid next to him suddenly said: "Auntie, look, it is a noble person." ”

Huanchun was stunned for a moment, looked up, and turned out of a woman in the color of a palace concubine at the intersection in front of her, followed by three or two palace maids, looking at the back, she couldn't guess which one it was for a while, but the little palace maid next to her said that she just saw the side face when they turned over, and saw clearly that it was a noble person.

"Right now, all the palaces are closed, and she walks outside like this, looking forward to locking people up again?" Huan Chun hated a word, and led the people around him to turn back and detour, the "plague god" of Ping Guiren, it is best to hide away if he can't be provoked.

When Huanchun came back, Concubine Hui was just about to leave, she stood respectfully at the foot of the steps and waited for Concubine Hui to leave, inadvertently raised her eyes, and saw that the palace maid who followed Concubine Hui was Zhang Sheng's face, and she didn't pay attention to it when she washed the three ceremonies, and because each palace sent some gifts over, the palace maids came and went frequently, she just saw it at this time, Sister Baoyun, who had always followed Concubine Hui, was gone, and this palace maid was transferred from nowhere.

After Concubine Hui left, Huanchun came in to report to the master, not wanting the master to be annoyed, and did not mention the matter of seeing the noble people of Ping hanging outside on the road, but only mentioned that the Baoyun beside Concubine Hui was gone, and she was a little worried about whether she was okay.

Lan Qi sighed: "Baoyun is the eyeliner that the Empress Dowager placed next to Concubine Hui in the past, she can't get rid of it after so many years, and now that the Empress Dowager is gone, she will find a name to send Baoyun away, no matter whether anyone cares about it later, no one will be able to take care of it these days, and she may forget it even more in the future." After all, Baoyun is on an errand for Cining Palace, and other people have nothing to do with her, who cares about this idle matter. ”

"Mother cares?" Huanchun was excited for a while, but after asking, she felt that it was inappropriate, she shouldn't cause trouble to her master.

Lan Qi knew that they were all people from Cining Palace, Huanchun was younger than Baoyun, she must have been taken care of back then, she herself was also a palace maid, she understood the affection here, so she promised Huanchun: "I will take care of it, but you wait patiently, now is indeed not the time to do these things, I don't think Concubine Hui will hurt her life, after all, they all know that Baoyun is a palace maid rewarded by the Empress Dowager." ”

Huanchun is very relieved, she knows that what the master has promised will definitely do, and she is looking forward to Sister Baoyun if she leaves Changchun Palace in the future, it is not bad to come to Yonghe Palace, there are so many princesses in the palace at the moment, and a few more people should be there, but she doesn't know that it is not Concubine Hui who holds Baoyun and does not let go, but Baoyun herself does not want to leave.

And said that Concubine Hui left Yonghe Palace, is walking to her palace, someone on the road to say, said that the noble people have been waiting for a long time, Concubine Hui knows that she has been holding the little Hesheri clan these days, it is rare that she can still have this patience to come to the door every day, on weekdays, a word of fatigue can not be seen, today from the outside back, not to see it.

The warm sedan stopped, Concubine Hui asked Yan Zhu to get close and obedient, and told her to send someone to Yikun Palace to ask Concubine Yi and Zhang to promise to come over, Yan Zhu didn't understand, but persuaded the master: "After all, the noble person is from the Hesheli family, so it's better to be careful." ”

Concubine Hui sneered: "If the people of the Hesheri family take care of her, will she be bullied in the palace for so long?" As for letting Concubine Yi and them come over, I want to give Ping Guiren some face, Zhang promised to have a holiday with her, and there should be an end. ”

Yan Zhu obeyed the order to send someone to invite, but Concubine Hui stopped again: "You tell Concubine Yi what I mean, let her train Zhang to agree first, if Zhang Promise refuses to bow her head, she doesn't have to come over." ”

When such words reached Yikun Palace, Concubine Yi frowned and listened for a long time, and asked Yanzhu: "What does your mother mean, is it to ask Zhang to promise to apologize to the Ping nobles?" ”

Yan Zhu said with a smile: "What a way to make amends, the slave maid doesn't know, but the master is also a good intention, I want to try the sincerity of the chapter promise for the mother again, after all, this festival on the top, can be big or small, if the chapter promise is not the sincerity of the mother, how can you be willing to be wronged in front of the nobles?" ”

Concubine Yi listened and felt reasonable, although she herself already thought that there was no need to test Zhang Jia's family again, but it was not a bad thing to be a little more careful, after letting Yanzhu leave, she called Zhang Promise to come to her, and told her about the Changchun Palace, Xiao Zhi reasoned and said: "Concubine Hui is more senior than me, and she is more in power in the palace, although we are the same, I always rely on her more, today's incident is to give her a face, so that she can really surrender to the noble people, as for what grievances you suffer, just look at my face." ”

Zhang promised to turn the river and the sea in his heart, and said resignedly: "Originally, those things were done by Concubine De Niangniang at the instigation of her concubines, and Niangniang said that the Ping nobles couldn't get along with her, so she didn't let the Ping nobles have a good time." ”

Concubine Yi suddenly realized, clapped her hands: "There is a saying now, I said, you promised a little, where did you have the courage to provoke her again and again." On the other hand, he asked Taohong to serve and dress, and promised to Zhang, "She once abused and beat your palace maid, and her wrist is very vicious, I don't know how to vent her anger on you today, but with me and Concubine Hui, it shouldn't be too vicious." ”

Zhang Yu panicked, thinking that if the noble people of Ping didn't be ruthless to her, would it be possible to torture Xiaoyu? Although it is not appropriate to shout and kill in the funeral palace at the moment, but to abuse a palace maid behind closed doors, as long as no one outside knows, nothing can be done by a noble person like that.

I didn't expect Concubine Yi to have the second half of the sentence, finally now that she is a little older, she wants to think more about things, and she promised Zhang: "Your palace maid once injured her, maybe she will be tossed by her today, don't take her with you, there can be no abuse in the palace right now, I just give Concubine Hui a favor, but I don't want to be cheated by them." ”

Zhang promised to feel relieved, she was going to think of not taking Xiaoyu out, but she was afraid that Concubine Yi would be suspicious, and now Concubine Yi's words told her to rest assured, go back to change out of her clothes, and tell Xiaoyu to wait for her at home, but Xiaoyu refused, she wanted to follow her master, and said loyally: "The slave is very good, not afraid of her, she will not bully you if there is a slave and a maid." No matter how bad it is, she can't beat the slave to death, right? ”

"Silly girl, it's not good to be beaten half to death, I watched you get beaten, it's better to be bullied." Zhang promised to refuse, and ordered Xiaoyu not to go out, and took the other palace maids in the house out to wait for Concubine Yi, and soon they went to Changchun Palace together.

In the warm pavilion of Changchun Palace, Concubine Hui was already sitting on the top, and the noble people were serving tea by the stove, knowing that Concubine Yi and Zhang promised to come, they brewed four cups of tea under their hands, the tea had just been brewed, the curtain in front of the door was opened, and a cold wind poured in, and they saw the radiant Concubine Yi Niangniang walking in the door, and shouted in her mouth: "What incense is smoked in my sister's house, it smells weird." ”

The younger palace concubines who followed behind her are all wearing filial piety at the moment, no one is more gorgeous than the other, but the appearance is not the same, even if Concubine Yi is arrogant, she is also compared to the people behind her, Zhang promised that in the past two years, she has become more and more beautiful.

And the noble people are no better than others, they are born with a bewitching and beautiful face that is enough to stand out in the palace, beautiful people are the most intolerant of others to look good, I haven't seen Zhang Jia's for a long time, and now she has become beautiful and lovely, and she has more hatred in her heart.

"Sister Ping, sit down, Zhang promised a lower position than you, so I didn't have to ask you to serve her tea." Concubine Yi sat down by herself, and while calling the nobles over, she sighed and said, "I haven't seen you for a few days, and you seem to have grown a little taller, but you are taller than before?" Either it's thin, blame the pitiful. ”

Ping Guiren is indeed still growing at the age of the body, and there will inevitably be changes if he does not see it for a year, but it is less moisturized by rain and dew, but it has grown into an ordinary appearance, imagine that if he accompanies the emperor from time to time this year, his body shape may be more charming and enchanting.

"My sister used to be in Yonghe Palace, but she learned kung fu from Concubine De?" Concubine Hui looked at Zhang Jiashi who was standing aside with a smile, and pointed to the tea by the stove, "Noble Ping has made half of it, and I'm thirsty." ”

"The concubine only does rough work in Yonghe Palace, but she has learned a lot from Concubine Yi in recent days." Zhang promised to say as he spoke, carefully came to serve the tea, the tea has been brewed, she only needs to pour the tea, and there is no palace maid in the warm pavilion, so the matter of serving tea naturally falls into her hands.

Carefully held the tea bowl and put it down in front of Concubine Hui and Concubine Yi, Zhang promised to turn back and serve tea again, and when he was about to serve it to the noble people, his heart fluttered, but he heard Concubine Yi smile and said: "It's just right, I know that Sister Ping and our Zhang promised to have some festivals, and now she will serve you tea, so she should apologize, and in the future, my sister and sister will be a family, and the past will be written off." ”

A write-off? Because Zhang promised to fall down, but framed himself for murdering the emperor's heir, Ping Guiren was grounded for more than a year, if it wasn't for the death of the old thing of the Empress Dowager, she didn't know when she would be released, and the family didn't care about her, and the emperor didn't even exist as her. That's so light.

Ping Guiren raised his eyes to look at Concubine Hui, but Concubine Hui had already instructed her what to do, telling her that Concubine Yi was now the person who promised to be Concubine Yi, and Concubine Yi was willing to give herself a face, so that she could dissipate the resentment in her heart and be harmonious in the future.

Concubine Hui gave her a look, intending to allow her to do something out of the ordinary, a group of harmony is a matter of the future, and today is to vent her anger.

Seeing that Zhang promised to bring tea over, there was no tea table where the noble person was sitting, and the tea was going to be sent to her, Zhang promised to stand respectfully in front of her, and said softly with Concubine Yi's words: "The concubine was ignorant in the past, and was instigated to do disrespectful things to the nobles, and invited the nobles to drink a large number of people, and drank this cup of tea, and the past is over." ”

Of the three people here, Concubine Hui and Concubine Yi were all drafted into the palace, and she was a noble person, but Zhang promised to be a little palace maid picked up from Yingtai, exactly the same as her old master, in the eyes of the noble people, she was a lowly person. Listening to her words at this moment, I couldn't help but sneer: "It seems that my sister has learned very well in Yonghe Palace and Jingyang Palace, and the two of you are from the same background, and they both learn to speak decent words, and they are crepe, so I am afraid that others will see through your humble and lowly background." ”

Zhang promised to be twisted in his heart, his face was calm, and he held the tea bowl steadily: "The concubine was born from a humble background, for fear that the rude words of the past would stain the ears of the nobles and ladies. ”

Ping Guiren stretched out his hand to take the tea, and smiled in his mouth: "In the future, sisters and sisters, the past will pass." But the hand just touched the tea bowl, seeing that Zhang promised to let go, Ping Guiren followed and put his hand down, and the whole bowl of hot tea turned out, all splashed on Zhang Promise's hand, she was scalded and painful, and it was too late to catch the tea bowl, in the crisp cracking sound, only to see the mess all over the ground.

Ping Guiren sighed: "Sister, what are you doing, are you not convinced, do you want to burn me?" ”

Concubine Hui and Concubine Yi watched from the side, Concubine Yi frowned, a little unbearable, turned her head to look at Concubine Hui, people drank tea calmly, and saw that there was embarrassment over there for a while, and then said: "Isn't there still a bowl of tea, Zhang promised, if you have the heart to make amends, you will bring another bowl of tea to the Ping nobles, since you also said that those things were instigated by Concubine De, I don't think the Ping nobles will blame you, drink the tea, and it's over." ”

Zhang promised that the back of her hand was hot and painful, she didn't dare to look down, and even more was splashed with hot water on her cuffs, and the hot water soaked the fabric and adhered to the skin, which was like roasting directly on the stove with her hands, and the pain made her tremble, but no one cared about her injury, and Concubine Hui even asked her to bring a bowl of tea.

At this point, she has to endure everything, otherwise she will fall short and lose her previous efforts. Zhang promised to grit his teeth, turned around and brought the bowl of tea that should have been reserved for him, still respectfully sent it to the noble man Ping, and said humbly: "The noble man is angry, and the concubine is not careful." ”

Ping Guiren raised his eyes and saw that there was a big blister floating on her hand, and snorted: "How dare I be angry with you, I say that the emperor likes you very much, if I see the blister in your hand and ask who hurt you, should I be unlucky to carry the black pot again?" ”

"No, no, it's the concubine herself, it's your own carelessness, and it has nothing to do with you." Zhang promised to lower her posture as much as possible, she knew that Pinggui was the same as those evil women in Yingtai, and she would only feel satisfied when she saw others being trampled under her feet, their hearts and intestines had long been distorted, and there was never right or wrong, human morality in their world.

Concubine Yi didn't seem to be able to bear it, and coughed dryly and said, "Sister Ping, drink tea, the tea is going to be cold." ”

Ping Guiren responded: "What Niangniang said is that it's not good if it's cold." Saying that he reached out to take the tea, it was the same as Fang Cai, no matter how careful Zhang promised to be, as long as she let go, Ping Guiren let go of the tea bowl in his hand, the tea in the warm pavilion was not bad These kung fu became cold, and the still hot tea was splashed on Zhang Promise's hand again, she fell down in pain, and her knee hit the broken porcelain again, instinctively reaching out to support it, but the palm was pressed against the fragment and was cut, and it was bloody for a while, which was very scary.

Concubine Yi couldn't stand it anymore, so she turned to Concubine Hui and said, "She still has to serve the emperor." ”

Concubine Hui glanced at her disdainfully, and finally spoke up: "Zhang promised that you were really careless, hurry up and go back to clean up." Saying that, Yanzhu was called to take people away, and another palace maid came in to clean up the mess, and saw that the broken porcelain pieces were full of blood, and several palace maids were frightened, but the masters were calm, they had to clean up and leave quickly.

As soon as the idle people left, the Ping nobles showed a respectful and humble look to the two again, and were busy adding tea to Concubine Hui, Concubine Yi said on the side: "Sister Ping, Zhang promised to be my person now, very obedient and docile, look at my face in the future, today's such a thing can be avoided." ”

Ping Guiren smiled awkwardly: "Concubine Fangcai, she was lost in the past. ”

"This year has been grounded for more than a year, you should also understand what is going on in the palace, you are so young, there will be no place for you on the dragon couch in the Qianqing Palace." Concubine Hui had a gesture of gratitude, and she didn't see Fang Cai's indifferent and ruthless expression to Zhang Gong, and she was a little polite at the moment, "There are not many noble concubines in the palace, the emperor understands in his heart, sister, you can wait with peace of mind, no matter how anxious you are now, you can't be in a hurry for the funeral of the Queen Mother." The emperor has a day to slow down, and before that, you have to be safe and divided, otherwise Yonghe Palace will be eyeing you again, and if you don't agree, there will be many people rushing to let Concubine De be a gunman, you have to be careful. ”

"The concubine remembers Niangniang's words, and hopes that Niangniang will take care of the concubine more in the future." The anger on the face of the noble man is that he can't wait to cut the women who have hurt her to this point with a thousand knives.

In Yikun Palace, the injured Zhang promised to be sent back soon, although she was not beaten, but just two bowls of tea, she was covered with bruises, the back of her hands and wrists were covered with terrifying blisters, her palms were cut several times, and her knees were also broken, and when she took off her close-fitting pants, she was stained all the way to her legs with blood, and the wounds were not very scary, but this bloody appearance scared Xiaoyu into crying.

Xiaoyu cried and wiped the blood stains for her master, while begging: "Let's beg Concubine De Niangniang, don't stay here any longer, okay?" ”
