Chapter 534: Performance
Not only Yu'er cares, everyone is talking about why Jingren Palace didn't show up today.
Yesterday, Yuan Xi was reprimanded by the emperor in front of the gate of Cining Palace, although the people of Cining Palace would not go around to talk about it, but Wu Liangfu did not control his subordinates.
The people in the womb already knew this, so they would naturally guess whether Concubine Tong couldn't hold it on her face, or she was deliberately hypocritical in an attempt to make the emperor feel distressed.
"Now that the emperor has another person on the tip of his heart, it is difficult for her to be as happy as before, at least in front of the emperor, she can't eat."
Behind the seat, Concubine Chen took the woman who had been skinned by the palace maid, gave half of it to Concubine Ning beside her, and said softly: "If I were you, I would be patient, who knows what will happen to Chengqian Palace in the future." ”
Concubine Ning ate the oranges slowly and methodically, thinking carefully about Concubine Chen's words, although she didn't say it explicitly, the meaning was very clear, she dealt with Tong Jia's family and the third elder brother, and if she turned back to Chengqian Palace and gave birth to a son, she would be busy in vain.
So we have to wait and see how beautiful the Chengqian Palace can be.
"I don't care, the emperor probably can't remember me anymore." Concubine Chen said with a smile, "Sister, don't give up easily, be promoted to concubine as soon as possible, and the second elder brother will be more valuable than his mother." ”
Concubine Ning brought the duck fat crisp in front of her to Concubine Chen, Concubine Chen picked a piece, only took a bite and threw it to the palace maid beside her, sighing: "Why are today's snacks salty, the mung bean cake two days ago is very sweet, I haven't eaten enough." ”
"The Queen Mother likes salty dim sum." Ning Concubine said, "Naturally, we have to like it too." ”
Concubine Chen looked forward, and saw that the dim sum plate replaced by the queen had hardly been moved, and the purple and blackened grapes had eaten half a bunch, and she smiled: "No, even the queen has no choice." ”
Speaking of the queen, Concubine Ning's heart sank, in addition to Chengqian Palace, there was Kunning Palace, Changchun Palace, Qixiang Palace, the two Mongolian concubines, she had forgotten.
They are young and are not looked down upon by the emperor at the moment, but they will definitely start to sleep in a few years, after all, they are the tools sent by Horqin to give birth to sons, and if they can't give birth, they will continue to send them.
Concubine Ning suddenly lost her fighting spirit, she wanted to do something in the palace on her own, it was extremely difficult, and she had to fight against the entire Horqin? It's a dream.
The people around him suddenly said faintly: "I heard that the one in Xianfu Palace is close to you?" Don't blame me for not reminding you, it's a human spirit. I can't get used to her, she is charming. ”
Concubine Ning bowed and said, "Thank you sister for reminding me, I also figured it out." ”
In this palace, it is no longer as simple as when they first came, they have condensed into several forces openly and secretly, Ning Concubine has nothing but Fuquan, no beauty and no grace, and her mother's family can't count on it.
She can't be easily moved by Dong Ejiayue's words, she can't be pushed in front of her as a gunman, and she can only hope for her to keep Fuquan growing up safely.
The eyes of the Empress Dowager are all over the world, and Concubine Chen has noticed that Xianfu Palace is close to her, I am afraid that from the first time Yue Chang stepped into the door of Yikun Palace, Cining Palace has already known.
Concubine Ning knew very well in her heart that no one she offended could offend the Queen Mother.
There was applause in front of them, and Concubine Ning and Concubine Chen also slapped their hands, only to see Su Mala walking back from the front and walking to Dong Jiayue's side.
Yue Chang was eating a banana that was rare after returning to the capital, looked at Su Mala in a daze, and after listening to her, he hurriedly put down the things in his hand.
"What's wrong?" Concubine Chen glanced at her a few times, "How can the Queen Mother remember her?" ”
Not long after, I saw the palace maids set up a round stool on the stage, Yue Chang was on the stage, Dong Yan was behind her, holding the pipa, and everyone understood that the queen mother wanted to listen to the sound of the pipa lingering in the Qianqing Palace for more than a month.
After Dong Jiayue trembled and saluted the queen mother, she picked up the pipa, plucked the strings with her fingers, gently twisted and slowly wiped the re-picking, and the music of the jade beads walking on the plate spread out from the garden.
"The strings cover up the sound and thoughts, as if they are complaining about their lack of ambition in life." Yu'er looked at the people on the stage, smiled and said, turned around and asked the queen on the side, "Isn't it?" ”
The queen didn't study much, after all, she was not trained as a queen when she was a child, and she was sent to the capital in a hurry, and even her Chinese was far inferior to her aunt Meng Guqing Lisuo, not to mention, she could understand a poem read by the queen mother casually.
Yu'er was not annoyed, her eyes naturally raised and saw Dong Eshi on the side.
Jia Yin turned around when she heard the Queen Mother reciting this poem, and she just met the Queen Mother's eyes, she didn't dare to avoid it without permission, but the Queen Mother's gaze inexplicably made her panic.
Yu'er smiled deeply, retracted her gaze, and continued to enjoy Yue Chang's playing, Dong Ejia Yue was also angry, and played a song smoothly, not even a single note was wrong.
"Reward." Yu'er said, "No wonder at that time, the emperor loved to listen to you play the pipa, and it was really good." ”
Yue is often kowtowing to thank her, but she is not happy in her heart, she always feels that today's strange thing is that the queen mother may not be able to say ten words to her all year round, what's wrong.
Jia Yin's heart was pounding, she remembered very clearly, Yuan Xi told her that the dignity of the imperial concubine was not allowed to play the piano in front of people, so although the chime of the day before yesterday was guided by Concubine Xian, she did not play herself.
"The girls of Dong E's family are all talented women, I heard Su Mala say, under the window of Concubine Xian's boudoir, is there a zither or a piano?" Yu'er smiled, "Did you bring it into the palace?" ”
Jia Yin got up, lowered his head and said: "It's a zheng, the concubine has learned a little bit of fur, and it is far less good than playing the pipa that Yue Chang is here." ”
Qifujin smiled on the side: "Concubine Niangniang must be modest, I have long heard that Niangniang is familiar with piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is a famous talented woman in the south of the Yangtze River, I don't know if we have the honor to listen to Niangniang play a song." ”
Jia Yin understood, there was no way to avoid it, and bowed down and said: "The Queen Mother, the concubine is ugly." ”
Here, Fulin finished handling government affairs in the Qianqing Palace, and heard that the excitement of the garden in front of Cining Palace had not yet dissipated, so he wanted to show his face.
Walking outside the courtyard, I heard someone playing a kite, and I was thinking that this was the afterglow of the royal banquet, and what were all those tricks yesterday. How did I think that when I got closer, it was Jia Yin stroking the piano on stage.
"What's going on?" Fu Lin asked Wu Liangfu, "Who arranged it?" ”
Wu Liangfu was also confused: "The slave only knows that everything is decided by Concubine Tong." ”
Fu Lin walked to the front and greeted his mother, Yu'er smiled: "The emperor came just in time, and he didn't miss Concubine Xian's performance." ”
"Eniang, Jiayin ...... her" Fu Lin said half a sentence, his eyes swept back, outside the concubines of the six palaces, they were all clan relatives and daughters, the old Fujin had it, and the young daughter-in-law Gege also had it, and he was a little angry in his heart.
"What's wrong?" Yu'er asked, motioned for the emperor to sit down, and said softly, "Your Majesty, how good is this, everything is fine with the virtuous concubine, and these ladies will not go outside to talk nonsense." ”
