"The courtiers knocked on the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother was blessed with Jin'an. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
The Queen Mother didn't look at Jingfen who was kneeling on the ground, but just raised her head and looked at the Imperial Concubine Lihuang on the side, "Sister has worked hard, the previous Siamese country paid tribute to a batch of peacock feather weaving Nanluo, of course, it is not as good as our internal use, but it's better than the bright color, but don't have some fun, you go to the back warehouse to choose, take a look, take back what you like to make clothes, don't tell others," the Queen Mother shook her fingers, "But it's just a little bit, everyone comes to me, it's not enough!" ”
Emperor Li's concubine took the initiative to bring Jingfen without authorization, and she was originally a little worried, but she didn't expect the queen mother to blame at all, so the hanging heart finally let go, and she was happy to be blessed, "The concubine retired." ”
When the concubine turned around and left, the queen mother put her elbow on the kang table and said idly, "Get up, I saw the ceremony just now, and it is not necessary to salute again this time." ”
Jingfen answered in a low voice, and stood up steadily, although she didn't lower her head, her eyes were very well-behaved, just half-closed and looked at the ground, the Queen Mother was playing with her armor, and looked at Jingfen carefully, Jingfen's hair was combed tightly, there was a peony flower in her ears, two knives were combed on her head, there were only a few burnt blue jewelry on her bun, her face was painted with a faint layer of gouache, and she was wearing a half-new light blue spring orchid summer chrysanthemum flower flag dress on her body, and her hands were naturally drooping. The queen mother secretly praised a few times in her heart, "Emperor Li's concubine brought you over so deliberately, presumably not just to thank me," Zhu Zhiyi handed the tea in, the queen mother took the tea, and glanced at Zhu Zhiyi, Zhu Zhiyi understood, waved his hand, and called out the four palace maids who were waiting in the Dongnuan Pavilion, and there were only two people left in the palace, the Empress Dowager Cixi and Jingfen. "What's the matter, just say it," the Queen Mother took a sip of tea, "You are my niece, whatever you say, no matter what Gui Xiang is, I will help you." ”
"Yes, the courtiers are ashamed," Jingfen still looked at the ground, "Cheng'en Mansion can have the Queen Mother to take care of it, I really don't know the blessings of several lifetimes, Ama has been much better since she entered the palace to apologize, and the Queen Mother sent the imperial doctor to condition Amma's body, and she will be better in a few days, this is the kindness of the Queen Mother, her parents are healthy, and the original courtiers can no longer get Longwangshu, but since she has entered the game, she can no longer have the intention of being complete," Jingfen raised her head, Qiushui's eyes looked at the queen mother, there was some timidity and panic in her eyes, and there was also a lot of nervousness and eagerness, "Since the courtiers have been selected for the edict, they are already in this game." ”
"This is the fate of our Eight Banners women," Empress Dowager Cixi said gently, she understood many emotions in Jingfen's eyes, "Entering the palace is not a bad ending, the glory and wealth in the palace are at your fingertips, if you don't seek advancement, stay in the palace for the rest of your life, and have a concubine to take care of your life, which is also very good." Gui Xiang pleaded with me, saying that he was willing to use his death in exchange for Jingfen's opportunity to enter the palace to be elected, what should I do if I kill him, how much should you know about the past, right? ”
Jingfen nodded silently, "I didn't know at first, but then there were rumors outside, Ama sometimes lost control of her emotions after getting drunk or smoking a lot, and she would reveal a thing or two, after a long time, the courtiers almost knew about these things." ”
"He committed a capital crime, but he is my own brother, how can I be willing to kill him," the Empress Dowager Cixi said lightly, but there was a sense of amazement in her words, "Now it seems that I am a person, in terms of family affection, fate is very light, Emperor Yingzong died early, Princess Rong'an also followed, Gui Xiang was imprisoned by me, although my mother did not say it on her face, but she must be very complaining in her heart, otherwise she would not hold my hand when she died, so that I must spare Guixiang, I don't promise to come down, my mother will not swallow her breath, As for Wanzhen," the Queen Mother shook her head, Wanzhen is the name of Prince Fu Jin, and she is the sister of the Empress Dowager Cixi, "This suspicion is not to mention, but it is really a lonely star." ”
The Queen Mother felt sorry for herself, "I have to give Prince Gong an explanation, so I have to take care of him, you know a little bit about his thoughts, don't be in a hurry to deny it, it is common to have such thoughts, ambitious men will have this method, not to mention, horizontal and vertical are in the past, your father said so, I always have to listen to him, although I don't see you much in Su Ri, but I have seen it before," but the Queen Mother did not have much impression of Jingfen, and when Guixiang was imprisoned, It is impossible for the ladies of the Chengen Mansion to meet the Empress Dowager alone, they can only kowtow with the big guys, not to mention that the Empress Dowager Cixi is also very busy, and the affairs of the internal and external wives are handed over to the Imperial Concubine Ying, so I can't see them many times throughout the year, "There is no problem with your character entering the palace, and I am just pushing the boat along the river." ”
Jingfen shook her head, "If it weren't for the Empress Dowager's acquiescence, the Internal Affairs Office and Prince Li would definitely not let the courtiers be selected, this point, the courtiers know best, there are thousands of difficulties, and it is not as difficult as this first level," she bowed slightly to the Queen Mother, "The courtiers are not people who don't know gratitude." ”
The Queen Mother smiled slightly, "It's good that you know." ”
"The courtiers also said just now, since it is a game, then naturally there is no need to put on a good show, and if you don't fight, you will fight for the hypocrisy, since the queen mother has already pulled the courtiers, the courtiers pleaded, and the queen mother pulled the courtiers again."
"What do you want me to do?" The Queen Mother looked at Jingfen with interest, "I have already made it clear that I will never interfere in the emperor's draft, in the past, Emperor Yingzong's draft, there was a little wave, and now I don't want to make a storm at all, if you want me to force something, put out this idea as soon as possible, thankless, I won't do it." ”
Before the Empress Dowager could speak, she sealed everything that Jing Fen intended to plead with the Empress Dowager, I have already given you an admission ticket, why do you want me to do anything else? Jingfen obviously didn't think that the Empress Dowager's attitude was sudden for her, she heard the Empress Dowager's words, smiled slightly, and then squatted down again and bowed.
"The courtiers begged the queen mother to help the courtiers ascend to the queen's throne." (To be continued.) )
