Hearing the Queen Mother's words, Jia Concubine clenched her fists in her hands, and the sharp armor sank into the flesh, piercing her life. She stood up tremblingly, but said: "The concubine is dedicated to the emperor, the harem, and the fourth elder brother, if she does something wrong, the concubine is willing to be punished." But the Queen Mother, such a lowly person hides in the corner, and from time to time does something that breaks the rules and the ancestral family law, why no one cares about it. ”

Before the queen mother could get angry, the queen had already scolded coldly: "Concubine Jia, you have too many words today." Then he glanced at Qianya, who was no longer afraid of Jia Concubine, and immediately stepped forward after understanding, and persuaded, "Jia Concubine Niangniang, the sun is just right outside, and the slave knows that there is a place that is the warmest." ”

Jia Concubine also knew in her heart that it was really ugly, and the emperor would not come to protect her, but she couldn't swallow this breath. Now everything that should be said has been said, and everyone else is listening clearly, she is not the only one who hates Wei Hongyan, but she has suffered a ready-made loss and said it. The pure concubines, aren't they jealous of Wei Hongyan for stealing the emperor's heart

Qianya and several other grandmothers led Jia Concubine to the palace road outside Ningshou Palace, and the Queen Mother did not say that she wanted Jia Concubine to kneel, so they naturally did not dare to make their own ideas, so they asked Jia Concubine to stand in the sunny place, and ordered a few grandmothers to take care of her, and she was leaving.

Jia Concubine was ashamed and hateful, it could be seen that Qianya was gone, she called her down again, and asked disdainfully: "The girl is also good-looking, why didn't the Lord Banzai take a fancy to you, did you not learn Wei Hongyan's ability to seduce the master?"

Qianya bowed and said: "What does Concubine Jia say, the slave and maid really don't understand, but the slave and maid know that if she says something that shouldn't be said, it will be miserable to lose her head." She put down this sentence and instructed a few guards of the grandmother, "Without the will of the Queen Mother, you will keep waiting, and naturally someone will come back to replace you, be careful." ”

After that, the six palaces dispersed from Ningshou Palace, and they all watched Jia Concubine stand on the side of the road, especially when those nobles promised to walk in front of them, Jia Concubine saw some mocking looks, and wanted to step forward and tear their faces.

But she moved her steps slightly, and a cold-faced grandmother said: "Niangniang, where are you going, if you feel uncomfortable, the slave and maid tell the queen mother, how about changing your posture" Jia Concubine was afraid of changing from a punishment to a punishment of kneeling, so she was so frightened that she didn't dare to move again.

And the concubines dispersed, the queen did not see for a long time, the queen in Ningshou Palace served the queen mother to remove her head, changed to a relaxed home-style bun, should have sat idle and drank a cup of tea to chat about family life, but had to mention those unpleasant things, the queen mother asked why Jia Concubine provoked trouble again, the queen said that night the emperor went to Qixiang Palace on the way, was stopped by an eight-hundred-mile urgent fold back to the Yangxin Palace, and that night, Hongyan was also in the Yangxin Palace.

"What is she going to do" The Queen Mother really frowned and sneered, "No wonder Concubine Jia hates to be like this, if it weren't for people in Shoukang Palace, she would have tore her face." ”

"Hongyan is the emperor's official woman, and it is common to enter and leave the Heart Cultivation Palace, and the ministers don't think there is anything." The queen said, "There was an eight-hundred-mile urgent excerpt that night, and state affairs are important, if Jia Concubine wants to make trouble, her sons will not tolerate her." As for why Hongyan is there, since the emperor doesn't think it's inappropriate, why should others care about pursuing it, E-Niang, do you say it?"

The Queen Mother shook her head: "But if you look at Concubine Jia's face, if she were someone else, she wouldn't be so chicken-flying, just because Wei Hong's reputation was not right." ”

The queen looked at her mother-in-law quietly, and she had no heart to argue, but insisted on her own thoughts: "At the beginning, E-Niang had come forward to say that it was you who gave the emperor a red face, and there should be no idea of being unrighteous in the eyes of others. Erchen is bold, please look at her with a normal heart, and soon she will be like other concubines. Although every time something happens, she has to make a fuss, but Hongyan herself, An An is divided into errands in Shoukang Palace, have you ever seen the concubines and concubines in Shoukang Palace, and said that she is not good"

The daughter-in-law was so calm and calm, much more indifferent than when she mentioned these things before. The Queen Mother did not reflect on her words and deeds, she was wholeheartedly for the good of her son and daughter-in-law, but in this way, she felt even more sorry for the queen, and said earnestly: "Don't you feel sorry for you in your heart, Eniang feels sorry for you." ”

The queen smiled faintly: "As early as when I married the emperor, the daughters explained that the sons had to take care of all the things for Hongli, but the sons are too confused now and have forgotten this responsibility." Eniang, Erchen accepts Hongyan wholeheartedly, but please also let go of your prejudices and look at her goodness. ”

The Queen Mother said: "But she is a person of right and wrong after all, An Yi, think about it yourself." E-Niang will no longer force you to do anything to her, but if something upsetting happens and the six palaces are restless, we will quickly cut through the mess and return the harem to a clean one. You think to yourself, before this Wei Hongyan appeared, from the palace to the palace, everyone was fine, wasn't it, did I wronged her?"

The queen smiled: "What E-Niang said is that probably the only difference is that others are just likable beauties to the emperor, but Hongyan is the one who broke into the emperor's heart." When a woman looks at such a thing, she understands best, and she knows who her husband is thinking in his heart. ”

The queen mother's complexion was slightly dark, she had accompanied the first emperor for decades, and she also had a few insights into the love between men and women, and her relationship with the first emperor was not enough, she had never watched the first emperor's affection for the queen and the young concubine, even if she never knew what that kind of affection was like, the queen mother also understood that what the queen said was not unreasonable. If the empress thinks that Wei Hongyan is the woman who broke into the emperor's heart, then she can't be wrong.

"An Yi, aren't you uncomfortable?" asked the Queen Mother.

"This is the responsibility and duty of the sons." The queen replied, but she smiled bitterly in her heart, if she told the queen mother that she personally sent Hongyan to the dragon couch of Hongli, would the queen mother still feel sorry for her

The Queen Mother sighed deeply: "Last time you knelt down and begged me to give her a name." An Yi, you are the mother of the Qing Dynasty and the queen of Hongli, but you can no longer bend your knees for a lowly person, and Eniang doesn't want to embarrass you anymore, I am willing to listen to you. After this draft, she was given a promised title, moved out of Shoukang Palace, and served the emperor like the concubines next to her. But if there is another incident and the chickens and dogs are restless, you also have to listen to Eniang, for the sake of long-term planning. ”

A boulder fell in the queen's heart, and I really want to thank Concubine Jia for this today, giving her the opportunity to talk to the queen mother, and the queen Zhou Zhou is saluting her mother-in-law and said: "Erchen is not bending his knees for Hongyan, but for Eniang's understanding of An Yi's heart." Eniang, An Yi will accompany the emperor and guard this home for him with you. ”

When Mama Hua saw this scene in front of the door, she was also full of comfort, and then quietly revealed these things to Mama Yuzhi of Shoukang Palace, and Mama Yuzhi didn't tell the concubine for the time being, and only chatted with her father-in-law in private.

and her father-in-law persuaded her: "Now I said it, I'm afraid that the red face will be unbearable, and when she gets to that step, she doesn't want to face it, so let's just watch from the side." ”

And Hongyan really doesn't care about things outside her body, and serves the concubine every day, accompanying or chanting for the concubine. The concubine said that the Buddha seems boring and boring, but it can make people calm down, their widows are seeking to be pure-hearted and have few desires, and a young child like Hongyan should calm down and think about his life, and Hongyan has benefited a lot.

On this day, when she accompanied the concubine to recite the Heart Sutra and helped the concubine to get up, she was seen with a lapis lazuli bracelet wrapped around her wrist, and the concubine smiled: "Where did you get such a good thing?"

Hongyan said frankly: "This is what the emperor asked Chief Manager Wu to give to the slave maid, saying that the slave and maid accompany you to worship the Buddha every day, and it is appropriate to wear him." ”

"Then you put on a red face, this is something from the emperor." The concubine smiled deeply, looked at Hongyan and said, "You are not afraid of the emperor now"

"The emperor is very good to slaves and maids." Hongyan lowered his head and replied, "Although I don't see the emperor much, I am very gentle every time, and the slave is not afraid of the emperor, it's just"

"Don't be in a hurry to explain to me, take your time, it's strange to say, I once said to Concubine Wen Hui that you are like an old man, but now I feel that you are still like another person." As the concubine spoke, she seemed to be talking to herself, "She was like this in the past, others seemed to want to refuse and welcome, and to seduce the emperor, but at the beginning, she really didn't care at all, and I can't remember what happened later." ”

These words, Hongyan doesn't understand very well, the concubine often suddenly recalls the past, the legend of Kangxi's harem is peaceful and peaceful, but in the mouth of the concubine, there are also many magnificent stories. Hongyan has always only listened to stories, but today when she heard the words "want to refuse and welcome", she thought of her attitude towards the emperor, and when she walked out of the Buddhist hall, Hongyan said: "Concubine Niangniang, the slave and maid really don't have any thoughts of non-separation, and the slave and maid want to serve you here for a lifetime." ”

The concubine touched the lapis lazuli bracelet on Hongyan's wrist, and said nonchalantly: "The emperor is your man, you don't think about the emperor, think about which stupid child, think about your own man, how can it be a non-divisive thought"

At this time, Xiao Lingzi and Cherry came back from the door, and the two went to the Internal Affairs Office together to receive things, Cherry is the granddaughter of her father-in-law, her face is bigger than her body, what should not be given, she gave a lot, she came back happily, and said in front of the concubine: "The people of the Internal Affairs Office want the slaves and maids to bring a message, saying that they kowtow to the concubine Niangniang, and wish you a long and healthy life every day." ”

The concubine smiled: "Now Xiao Cherry can also go out on errands." ”

Cherry was full of pride, and said: "Concubine Niangniang, the emperor has set the day of the final election, can the slave and maid go to the front to see on that day?"

The concubine glanced at Hongyan, and said with a smile: "She has been chattering for a long time, but the slave maid is unwilling to accompany her. ”

Cherry helped the concubine and said, "The slave maid is not going to gain knowledge, but she just wants to see if there is anyone who is better looking than my sister Hongyan." ”

The concubine squinted and smiled: "I don't think it can be had." ”

Soon, it was the day of the final election, and everyone was curious about what kind of newcomers would enter the palace, and even the joke that Concubine Jia was punished that day was gradually stopped being talked about. It is rumored that among the show girls this time, there are people who look like fairies, but the news came into the palace in bits and pieces, and it is not clear which family's daughter it is. On the day of the final election, only the queen mother and the queen can accompany them, and the concubines of the other six palaces can only send the palace maids and eunuchs to the Qianqing Palace to inquire about the news.

On this day, the draft girl should enter the Shenwu Gate to wait outside the Shunzhen Gate, there are household officials to guide, when the time comes, it will be introduced by the eunuchs of the inner palace according to the class, five people per class, to the imperial salute to be selected, the show girls are from the Manchuria Eight Banners, Mongolia Eight Banners and the Han Army Eight Banners, the birth level is different, if the emperor has a favorite, then the Queen Mother will be the master to leave the brand.

It has been several years since the last draft of the first emperor, and the palace has not done such a big thing for a long time.

Cherry today is with Concubine Yu's side of the grandmother to join in the fun, Concubine Yu is bent on choosing a newcomer for her son, so she wants the people under her to see if there is a good one, the queen mother and the emperor sit on the head, round by round to look at the past, already very tired, and gradually dazzled, the girls are good, but there are few outstanding ones.

Cherry stood on his feet and said to the grandmother beside him, "Grandma, let's go, it's not interesting." ”

Mama motioned her to be quieter, leaned into her ear and said, "I'm going to watch it, go back and tell the concubine." ”

At this time, the eunuch in front of the door took a roll call, and sent in five more show girls, and the grandmother heard Yehenara's clan, and said busily: "Cherry, you see, which one is in the middle, how beautiful it is"

But in front of the door of the palace, there were five beautiful girls standing together, with similar figures, but because of the one in the middle, the four people on the side were overshadowed, and even because of her, the girls seen in front of them lost their brilliance.

Mama pricked up her ears and listened, sure enough, this one was the daughter of the Yehenala family, goodbye, the queen mother and the emperor also said something to each other. After Chief Wu stepped forward to obey the order, he hurriedly came down to say a few words to the eunuch in front of the door, and then went to arrange, and soon heard the roll call, and five more show girls came in, and one of them was also a child of Yehenara's family.

The ten show girls stood in a row, and the two cousins of the Yehenara clan were like pearls shining, making people no longer have time to look at other people. The Queen Mother asked them to step forward, and after looking at it carefully, she said: "Since ancient times, Yehebu has been so beautiful, and it still has no loss of brilliance. ”

The two sisters are smiling, calm and generous, and at the age of fourteen or fifteen, they are very steady. Among them, the daughter of Nalan Yongshou is the great-great-grandson of Nalan Mingzhu's lineage, and her grandmother is the county lord of Prince Kang's mansion, and she also has a bit of royal blood, and with a strict family education, it is natural that she can train such a girl.

Both sisters have the color of the country, but if they have to be longer than one another, the cousin on the side is better. But when she smiled slightly, the Queen Mother frowned.
