readx;? The concubine and Concubine Yang came quickly, and the concubine retreated from the people around her, looked at them with a serious face, and said, "Coming?"

"The concubines Yuehua Palace Ji's family, Gaoyang Palace's Yang family, meet the concubine, the concubine Wan'an. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" The concubine and Concubine Yang bowed respectfully. They have never seen the Queen Mother, so naturally they have never understood the power of the Queen Mother. But in the face of this legendary concubine who has both wrists and scheming to prevent her eyebrows, they always have an inexplicable awe in their hearts. This kind of reverence can almost be compared to the first time you face the saint.

The concubine saw their nervousness and uneasiness, and her voice slowed down a little: "Sit down." You don't have to be restrictive, just be casual. ”

"Yes. The concubines obeyed. The concubine and Concubine Yang took advantage of the moment they sat down to glance at each other, and there was surprise in their eyes that could not be hidden. This is the first time that the concubine will let them be so "charitable" and casual. Every time I visited before, the whole person was like a taut string.

The concubine didn't care about these small actions between them, she felt a little compassion for them in her heart. Except for her with some exceptions, in fact, the women in the palace are the same, whether they are favored or out of favor, even if they are women living in the cold palace, without exception, they are all attached to the emperor.

When the emperor is here, they may not get any honor because of this, but once the emperor is not there, they will all be reduced to helpless and pitiful people. Needless to say, even if she is just a princess under her knees, she can still get the honor of a concubine or a concubine. As for the rest of the people, if the mother's family is more glorious, perhaps the newly enthroned emperor will give some face, and the rest of them are afraid that they will not be able to hold on to themselves.

She can be regarded as seeing such an example with her own eyes, just like when the emperor died, everyone except her was sent to the nunnery, and she had to be accompanied by the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha for the rest of her life. Those women were no more than thirty, and the rest of their lives were bleak and hopeless.

Comparatively speaking, the women in the emperor's harem today are only afraid to be even more desolate. The emperor died suddenly, and he didn't have time to make arrangements for them, so he died. They have no heirs under their knees, even if they are concubines, at most they are crowned concubines, which depends on the meaning of the new emperor.

Today's emperor is younger than the previous emperor, and the oldest of these women is only twenty-five or sixteen, and there is still too long to go in life. Originally, there were countless possibilities for them, but now it seems that the road to the future has been so narrow that they have no choice.

The concubine gathered her thoughts, sighed silently, and said slowly: "These days, there are many rumors in the palace, but I am afraid that they are all talking about the emperor's affairs. You have been walking around the palace a lot, and you must have heard much more than I did. I have brought you here today to tell you about it. ”

"Yes, the concubine listens. Concubine Yang and Concubine Yang's hearts tightened, and their attitudes were more respectful.

Not to mention the past two days, since they asked to see each other on the day of the fight, they have already had speculations in their hearts. But at least the concubine didn't make it clear, and there was always a glimmer of hope in their hearts. But then Su Nuoyu's sudden exit from the palace once again verified the uneasiness in their hearts. Immediately afterwards, it seemed that everyone in the palace was talking about it, and with the concubine's ears and eyes, it was impossible not to get the news.

But the concubine didn't say anything, neither sent someone to clarify, nor sent someone to thoroughly investigate who was spreading rumors and shaking people's hearts, all of which actually explained everything. You must know that the matter involves the emperor, if the emperor is really well, how can the concubine sit idly by?

The concubine's gaze brushed over their faces and landed on the light white mist rising not far away. The smell of sandalwood is something she has been accustomed to smelling over the years, especially when she has something on her mind, and she can use it to calm her mind.

"The emperor has died. ”

The concubine's voice was soft and slow, but it was like a sharp knife piercing into their hearts. The concubine's hand shook, and the silk handkerchief that she was holding in her hand slipped down. She looked at the concubine in disbelief, her lips trembling. And Yang Concubine, who didn't care about the number of courtesies, suddenly stood up, her voice trembling: "What did you say?"

Mentioning this matter, the concubine also had a grief that could not be hidden, and her tone was more relaxed: "The emperor drove the expedition in person, and when he was attacking the city against the enemy, he was not very much used by the villain to shoot the secret arrow at the central entrance. Although there are imperial doctors by his side to save him, he is not able to recover after all. ”

"No!" Concubine Yang shook her head in pain and sat down on the ground, heartbroken.

The concubine was even more mournful than her, and the whole person seemed to collapse at that moment, crying uncontrollably.

The concubine looked at them quietly, and after a long time, she raised her voice to call Ziying, pointed to Yang Concubine who was leaning on the side of the chair, and said, "Yang Concubine is useless, let her maid help her back." For these two days, there is no need to go out and walk around if there is nothing to do. ”

"Yes, slave and maid understand. Ziying answered, turned around and went out to call the fragrant tea beside Concubine Yang in.

After a while, Xiangming, with the help of Ziying, helped Yang Concubine out.

The concubine looked at the concubine with tears streaming down her face, and sighed: "I thought that there would be important things to be handed over to you to do next, although the Yang family is now in the concubine position, but she has been a concubine for so many years, but I didn't expect her to be so useless." Concubine, now in the harem, you are the only one in a high position, and there are some things that I need your assistance with. ”

"It is a blessing for a concubine to be valued by a concubine. The concubine choked up and said, "Don't blame Concubine Yang too much, the concubine and her both admire the emperor wholeheartedly." Now that such a big thing has happened to the emperor, no one can stand it for a while. ”

When the concubine heard this, there was a faint smile on her face: "Good boy, it's hard for you to be able to treat others like this at this time, and it is not in vain that the emperor valued you during his lifetime." In this case, I will leave the emperor's funeral to you. Now that there is no owner in the harem, I need someone to help me with many things. The emperor was not a good woman during his lifetime, and I am afraid that some people in this palace have not seen the emperor for a long time. When such a thing suddenly happens, I am afraid that people's hearts will inevitably be weakened. ”

The concubine saw the slight knowledge and ordered the concubine to obey. The emperor entrusted the harem and government affairs to the concubine, and the concubine's ability can be seen. The concubines are vulgar and dull, but they are afraid that they will not be able to do anything. But don't worry, the concubine is willing to learn from you and never disappoint your expectations. The concubine's sadness gradually subsided, and she began to think about her future in her heart.

The concubine nodded with satisfaction: "I am very pleased that you can think like this." I didn't know much about you before, but today I think you are quite to my liking. After a pause, her voice lowered a little, "In that case, I'll tell you something." The emperor died, and you people in the harem are afraid that from now on, you will only be rootless duckweed, helpless. ”

The concubine's heart was slightly cold, and she hurriedly took two steps forward, came to the concubine's side, and said flatteringly: "The concubine begs the concubine to have mercy." ”

The concubine glanced at her and said, "The rules of the harem, I guess you have also heard of it, if it was fine in the past, but now you are no different from them." You also know that any woman who has no heirs under her knees will be driven to the nunnery after the emperor's death. Even if you can lead the practice, if you want to live a more comfortable life in the second half of your life, it is absolutely impossible. ”

Hearing this, the concubine's knees weakened, and she knelt down: "Concubine, please feel sorry for the concubine." ”

"If I hadn't valued you, I wouldn't have called you today. You also know the situation in the court now, the emperor has no heirs, and it is unknown who the future emperor will be. Although I am a concubine, I don't have much power, and the only thing I can help you is to canonize you as a concubine before the new emperor ascends the throne. Although the life is not as good as your current brocade clothes and food, it is better than being in the nunnery. There was a faint confusion in the concubine's voice.

When the concubine heard this, she nodded hurriedly: "Thank you for your kindness, thank you for your kindness." The concubine is willing to accompany you for a long time, accompany you wholeheartedly, and serve you wholeheartedly. "She is a person who understands, and knowing what the concubine mentioned is the best way for her in the future.

The concubine sighed: "You don't have to thank you now, everything still has to wait until the funeral is over." I also took a fancy to Concubine Yang, and there was some hesitation between you, but today, it seems that Concubine Yang can't become the climate. ”

"Concubine......" There was a faint uneasiness in the concubine's voice. How could she not understand such an obvious hint. The damn Yang family, from the day she entered the palace, has not blocked her less. This time, what can't be said to make her take the lead!

The concubine waved her hand and said, "I still value you more in my heart, you just need to do what you should do well, and you don't have to worry about anything else." ”

The concubine felt a faint sense of relief in her heart, and said, "Thank you for the concubine." ”

After sending off the concubine, the concubine glanced at Ziying beside her: "Concubine Yang is in a better mood over there?"

Ziying's face was embarrassed, and she shook her head: "It's not getting better, since I learned the bad news, Concubine Yang Niangniang was heartbroken, and she almost fainted from crying along the way." ”

"Can you remember what I told you?" asked the concubine again.

Ziying nodded: "You can rest assured." ”

The concubine slowly bowed her head, and she also had helplessness in her heart, but there were some things that she didn't do, no.

In the Yuehua Palace, the concubine called Caiwen into the dormitory and told her everything that happened in the Jiade Palace. Finally, he asked, "Caiwen, although you are a maid, you also have some ideas on many things." Now this palace wants to hear your opinion on this matter. ”

Caiwen was surprised, and after a long time, he said cautiously: "Niangniang, in this way, the concubine Niangniang should value you." Now at this critical moment, the most important thing is to get the heart of the concubine. But that Yang Concubine, you can't take it lightly! Although she seems to be overly sad today, she doesn't react. But this person's scheming is so deep that we don't know how to understand it once. Niangniang also once suffered her secret loss!"

"What you said happens to be what this palace is worried about. The concubine has already made it very clear that she wants to choose one person between the palace and Concubine Yang. This is a matter of choice in the future, and this palace must not take a wrong step!" said the concubine with certainty.
