Chapter 16: The Harem Gathers to Ridicule

"Sister Mengyao, why do you have time to come here in this palace?" The queen looked smiling, and she couldn't see the slightest anger.

"No, the concubine heard that my sister was worshipping the Buddha recently, and I gave you a picture of Master Baohua opening the light Guanyin. ”

After the concubine finished speaking, the palace maid beside her immediately respectfully took out a purple sandalwood box, and the gold painting on it looked particularly elegant.

Its palace maid unfolded a picture of Guanyin, a Guanyin holding a treasure bottle of fairy willows, with merciful facial features, sitting on the lotus, and the temperament is very extraordinary. The inscription is the word Baohua, and the handwriting should be from the hand of Master Baohua.

The queen couldn't help but move, Master Baohua is a famous monk, and it is extremely rare for him to open the light with his own hands.

The objects that have been opened by his own hands, Master Baohua has a hobby, which is to write his name on his scrolls.

"Then thank you Sister Mengyao! I don't know what happened to the rest of the sisters?" The queen raised her eyebrows and spoke softly, her tone unexpectedly a little impatient.

"I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince won the emperor's favor this morning and rewarded him with many treasures, I am here to congratulate my sister! Unlike my family, I am nostalgic for the red lane of the Qinglou all day long, I am really uneasy......" Concubine Hui suddenly changed the topic, and actually mentioned Chaohuang, holding a teacup in her right hand, and her tail finger in the air was gently hooked.

I saw that Concubine Hui was also an extremely beautiful beauty, her skirt was wrapped tightly in satin, showing a delicate and transparent seductive figure, the bandeau blue butterfly coat covered the white skin, and the blue stripes around her were dark blue when you looked closely.

The green silk scattered on the shoulder is pulled up with the hairpin of the blood-red bellflower flower, and the black hair like flowing clouds is inserted obliquely, and the powder is thinly applied, the eyebrows are like willow bends, and the forehead is lightly vermilion, but it seems to be charming and moving.

If the noble white lotus on the queen's body is quiet and noble, and the imperial concubine is a gorgeous peony, as open as fire, then Concubine Hui is a delicate and pitiful hibiscus, which attracts people's attention.

Concubine Hui is one of the nine concubines of the dynasty, the sister of the prime minister, and she is pregnant with a son and a daughter, the son is the original five princes Chao Zheyu, and the princess is the third princess, the eldest princess of the emperor of the dynasty.

"Sister Hui, the fifth prince is extremely filial, although he is nostalgic for Qinglou Flower Lane all day long, isn't it also to choose a good daughter-in-law for his sister, isn't it?" The queen said with a smile, and every word seemed to speak to the tip of Concubine Hui's heart.

Hearing this, Concubine Hui, who has always had a good face, couldn't help but secretly clench her hands, this slut, how can he humiliate me so much?

Compare a Qinglou woman to a good daughter-in-law?

Didn't she mean that her son was incompetent, even if she picked a princess, she was among the women of the Qinglou, which was really hateful.

"Hehe, what my sister said is very true, there is no shortage of women in my family, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no female relatives in the palace! Concubine Hui smiled, with a hint of mockery on the corner of her mouth.

She is Concubine Hui, even the emperor will be a little scruple about their Prime Minister's Mansion, and the palace is also full of praise for her brother, the queen is just a declining daughter of a king of the opposite sex, why should she say sarcastic words about her child.

"Sister Hui is worried, but I heard that the fifth prince spent a lot of money for the top card of Wanhualou not long ago, 100,000 taels of gold, Sister Hui really has a good family. ”

Chu Xiangle's smile was gentle, but as soon as she finished speaking, Concubine Hui's face immediately turned white.

The queen is threatening her, if this word reaches the ears of the emperor, it will not be a good story of the five princes spending a lot of money for the beauty, but a jealousy of the prime minister's mansion.

was able to take out 100,000 taels of gold, which was a big deal, but for the sake of a beauty that day, the fifth prince had already ordered to seal the mouths of everyone present at the time, how could the queen know about this matter?

I couldn't help but wonder if there was a queen by her side, and she suddenly felt a cold sweat behind her.

His face turned a little pale, and a pair of beautiful eyes restrained all his expressions.

"Huh...... It's all rumors, rumors ......" After hearing the queen's words, Concubine Hui looked at the queen with a deep sense of jealousy.

It's all to blame for the woman who is the imperial concubine Leng Mengyao, it's okay to pull her over, Concubine Hui only feels that it's not good to speak, she is talking, the queen can't tell how to ridicule her, and she lowered her head and drank tea.

Watching Concubine Hui drink tea, Concubine Yi who was sitting on the other side opened her mouth to speak.

She is wearing a light blue palace dress, simple and simple, she also has an extraordinary temperament without powder, her facial features are very beautiful, she is the concubine of Yu, the language of flowers.

Her father is Dali Siqing, who has always been upright and clear, and his family style among the people is also very good, and his official position is not big or small, but it is also good.

"Queen Mother, Sister Hui, Sister Leng, who is the mother of this eleventh princess?" Huayu opened her mouth curiously, looking simple and harmless, Huayu was the latest to enter the palace, and the youngest among the nine concubines.

She is also very curious about the eleventh princess who has been very hot recently, and it is so bizarre that someone can wake up after ten years of sleep.

"Sister Yu'er, you still don't know!" The imperial concubine had an arrogant face, and kindly reminded her.

"It's just a beauty. Concubine Hui added.

And the queen did stop reading the Buddha beads with her hands, with a strange look in her eyes, as if she thought of something, but she didn't speak.

"It seems to be brought back by the emperor and the people, I was fortunate to see it once, that beauty is really beautiful, the emperor was extremely favored at that time, and it was rumored that the emperor intended to be a concubine at that time, and it was a sole favor during that time!" A concubine spoke softly, with a little envy in her tone.

"What do you know? Wan Concubine, no matter how beautiful she looks, she doesn't die in childbirth in the end, and she won't die well!" The imperial concubine opened her mouth coldly, and her tone was a little angry.

That beauty, when she was alone in the harem, the emperor never went to him for a single step, thinking of this, Leng Mengyao was angry, damn it!

She's dead, isn't she?

"Then it's a pity! The eleventh princess is really pitiful, she has no mother since she was a child......" Concubine Yu Ai opened her mouth, and she was actually a little sympathetic.

"Sister Yu, it's not easy to talk nonsense, do you know why the beauty fell out of favor at the beginning, so that the person who was about to give birth did not have a doctor by his side, and finally died in childbirth?" Concubine Hui said softly, squinting her eyes with a sneer on the corner of her mouth.

"Oh?

"It's not stealing people......" Before the imperial concubine's words were finished, she was interrupted by the queen.

"That's enough! Let Your Majesty hear this, you don't have any good fruit to eat, it's forbidden to talk about this matter in the future, Concubine Yu, I pity you for the youngest, don't mention it again, I'm tired today, just retreat if you have nothing to do......" The queen's voice was gentle as gurgling water, but with the power of demagogy that can drown people.

The queen's appearance is obviously driving people away, and she looks impatient, and she doesn't even hide it.

"Humph!"

The concubine snorted coldly and stroked the golden hairpin on her head, and left with a noble temperament.

As soon as the rest of the people saw that the concubine was the first to leave, they also turned around and said goodbye, and in an instant, there was no one in the palace.

The queen touched her eyebrows, and said as if no one was around: "Beauty...... Gong Hanxin"

The name Gong Hanxin is the biological mother of the eleventh princess, but few people know that in the end, she did owe her a favor at that time, but she also raised her daughter at the beginning.

It can be regarded as returning this favor!

That is, I don't know if this decision is right or wrong, why does her son have to be so attentive to her daughter?

"Mother, what's wrong with you?" The personal palace maid next to her saw the incomprehension and exhaustion in the eyes of the queen, and intimately sent chrysanthemum tea.

"Alas, do you say that this palace is wrong? You shouldn't have raised that child in the first place! Why should the prince be so separated from this palace for many years?" The queen took the chrysanthemum tea and put it aside, sighing heavily.

The palace maid hesitated for a moment and replied, "No one thought of this, don't blame yourself, Niangniang!"

The queen said lightly, "You stand down, I want to be alone and quiet!" The gifts sent by the palace concubine are all put into the warehouse according to the old rules!"

"Yes, what about the picture of Guanyin that your favorite Master Baohua sent to her?"

The palace maid came back to her senses at this time, and her face was a little unnatural, and after only a moment, she returned to her original state and said.

"Hang in the main hall. ”

"Got it!"
