Chapter 082: Transformation
After speaking, Tuanzi Baoqing gave Ye Xia a big salute.
"If you like it, it's fine."
Ye Xia beckoned the group to come to her, just like that, she personally put on the blessing cards for the dumplings one by one, watching the guy pinching the blessing card and not letting go of it, and in her smiling eyes, the color of pampering became more and more intense.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Emperor Kangxi announced that he would "open the pen" and "open the seal" and re-enter the working state.
And the new year, with the warm flowers, the harem has come out of good news, first Yi Concubine Guo Luo Luo is happy, the expected date of delivery is in early December, followed by the news of De Concubine Wu Ya's happiness,
The expected date of delivery is in February of the next year, in addition to these two happy events, the noble Guo Luo Luo gave birth to the sixth daughter of the emperor in early May, and the three feudatories frequently reported good news back to Beijing, Emperor Kangxi's heart is really not ordinarily good.
But in the huge palace, not next to the place, take the harem, happy events continue, Yi Concubine, De Concubine is happy and happy, the palace people who serve them are also very happy, but those who have no holy grace,
Or maybe he was favored by Kangxi after the year, but he was not pregnant with a dragon heir, his heart was both pantothenic and resentful, and he was very thoughtful, and he was happy to Yi Concubine and De Concubine on the surface, but secretly calculated how to let the two of them have a miscarriage.
For example, the concubine, since she learned that the two concubines were happy, she was so angry that she pierced people in her heart, and pondered how to make the two concubines have a miscarriage, but whether it is a concubine or a concubine, they are not vegetarians.
The two of them controlled their respective palaces like iron buckets, even if the concubine came up with a way to have an abortion, it was difficult to show it, so she could only watch Yi Concubine De's stomach gradually bulge, sitting in her own palace and gritting her teeth and tearing the veil.
"Guifei Niangniang, take a look at the emperor, this harem is covered with rain and dew, it is a rule left by the ancestors......"
couldn't sit still in their own palace, and the concubines took advantage of the time to ask the concubine Tong Jiashi for peace, and after most of the concubines retired to Tong Jia's family, they had a good relationship with the two low-ranking concubines on the surface, one was a nobleman, and the other was often rubbing and not leaving with the crowd.
At this time, seeing that only the concubine Tong Jia's sisters and the three of them were left, they couldn't help but get up to bed in a high-sounding manner, it was obvious that the nobleman who stayed with her was always there, and the three of them should have very little favor.
Fang hit it off, hoping that after listening to their grievances, the noble concubine Tong Jiashi could blow the wind in her ears in front of the emperor, and also go to the palace of these concubines who did not have many holy favors, so as to achieve their goal of being able to conceive the emperor's heir.
And the reason why the concubine had great hopes for the concubine Tong Jia's pillow wind blowing the emperor was because after Tong Jia's half a year was lifted, although Emperor Kangxi didn't go to Chengqian Palace much,
didn't turn over the green head card of the concubine Tong Jia's family, but the power of the six palaces still returned to Tong Jia's hands, but the assistant managers of Hui Concubine, Rong Concubine, De Concubine, and Yi Concubine were not canceled.
But Rao is like this, it is enough for the harem concubines to see that the emperor still has feelings for the cousin of the noble concubine Tong Jiashi, a childhood sweetheart, otherwise, how can he still hand over the right to govern the six palaces back to Tong Jia's hands, and even more so that the first two concubines Tong Jia's first two sisters who just entered the palace directly became nobles and lived in the Chengqian Palace?
What is this?
The concubine with a heart and eyes almost instantly thought that Tong Jia's entry into the palace was to help her sister win favor, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl who was as tender as a flower and a bone, was carried into the palace for less than two, and before she went to bed, she was a nobleman, once she was favored by the emperor, the two sisters cooperated a little, is it far from the concubine Tong Jia's family to regain her holy favor?
The two sisters are both cousins of the emperor, and they are both good-looking, one is elegant and quiet, the other is innocent, and they are not sideways, just the relatives brought by the blood can make the emperor pity the Tong Jia sisters.
The old is revived, and the concubine is in charge of the six palaces again, and she has become the emperor's favorite again, so naturally it will not be too far away.
Because of this, the concubine felt that it was a normal choice to find the two aggrieved words of the concubine Tong Jia. is the same woman, she doesn't believe that Tong Jia's family doesn't want to sleep, and she doesn't want to conceive the emperor's heir early.
Now that she and the two helpers are beating the side drum here, Tong Jia's and the emperor are facing each other, and there is no doubt that there is a reasonable reason for the matter of sleeping in person, and there is no need to be suspicious of the emperor and think of her own.
"This palace knows, when I look back and see the emperor, this palace will mention one or two, this time this palace is a little lacking, so I won't leave three sisters."
After the concubine said a lot of words, the noble man next to her and Chang Zai each lowered their eyebrows and expressed two grievances, hearing what the three said, the concubine Tong Jia's face never showed the slightest abnormality,
Seeing that she was silent for a long time, the three concubines couldn't help but feel a little bottomless, and at this moment, Tong Jiashi finally made a sound, but she didn't give the concubines permission to speak, which made the concubines extremely dissatisfied, but for Tong Jia's sake, what if they were dissatisfied?
The concubine clenched the silk handkerchief in her hand, kept smiling as much as possible, got up, and the nobleman who lived in the Changgong and accompanied her to Tong Jia's words, Chang Zai, bowed respectfully to Tong Jia's family, and left.
Tong Jiashi watched the three concubines walk out of the door steadily, pursed her lips, and asked, "Sister, did you promise the concubines?" ”
thought that only when the draft was the time to become the emperor's woman, clinker, two ago, Ama suddenly arranged for her to sit in a sedan chair, with doubts, waiting for the sedan chair to land,
She knew that she was already in the palace and had become a member of the emperor's harem, and she was canonized as a nobleman and lived in the Chengqian Palace with her sister, well, she just lived in the partiality. However, it's nothing, with her brain, it's only a matter of time before she climbs up, lives in the Lord, and becomes the Lord of the First House.
"Since the concubines are up, this palace can't pretend not to know."
The emperor turned over the green head card, in order to put an end to the harem favorite, it was randomly selected, and whoever he picked was who, but for the concubines he liked more, the emperor would undoubtedly have more opportunities to choose the green head card.
Half a year, she didn't know that the harem concubines' bedding was clear, and then the full deadline came, and most of the rights to be in charge of the harem returned to her.
De Concubine, Yi Concubine, that is, Hui Concubine and Rong Concubine, during her full period, the chance of being turned over by the emperor is obviously more than the rest of the harem, perhaps because of this, Yi Concubine and De Concubine have spread good news one after another,
If you want to ask her how she feels, it is undoubtedly heartache in addition to heartache. If she wants to survive in the harem, she can't fall out of favor, even if she is already cold to that person now, but she doesn't want the Chengqian Palace where she lives to become a cold palace.
I don't want to be a joke in the eyes of those hooves in the harem, so she wants to be favored, not for the side, just to not completely become a joke, just to be able to give birth to a son and a half daughter, and she has to try to compete for favor. Yes, it has nothing to do with it, that person, that emperor who is high, she can't afford it, and she can't go again.
The heart is full of holes, most of which has to do with herself, but if it weren't for the fact that the person gave her too little, so that she couldn't get the same reward for her efforts, as for how far she had come, as for becoming a person who felt strange even to herself?
Eniang, younger brother, the glory of Tong Jiafu, she doesn't want to care now, she wants to live for herself, she wants to be in the middle palace, and become the real master of the harem!
Tong Jia's eyelids drooped, and he didn't make a sound for a long time, Tong Jiashi glanced at this sister lightly: "Go back to your own room and rest, this palace has been weak recently, and you need to rest well." ”
If it sounds good, it's sending off guests, and if it's ugly, it's undoubtedly driving people away.
Biting his lip, Tong Jiashi endured the embarrassment and saluted: "Then my sister won't bother my sister here." ”
Respectfully retired, as soon as she walked out, Tong Jia's face became cold, and the unwillingness in her eyes almost overflowed, wait, thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, sooner or later she will step on the soles of her sisters, so that her mother and sister will know that she Tong Jia Xiuqing is no longer pitiful in a corner of Tong Jia's mansion!
Walking out of the Chengqian Palace, the concubine looked calm, and said casually: "The palace goes to the imperial garden, do the two sisters want to go together?" ”
Hearing this, holding the hand of the palace maid, Qin Guiren and Xu Changzai, who walked behind her, were stunned at first, and then Qin Guiren responded with a smile: "It's okay to go back to the palace, and it's also comfortable to follow my sister to the imperial garden to see the flowers blowing in the wind." ”
Do they have a choice?
The person in front of him has a bad temper, he is well-known in the long palace, however, although they are the emperor's people, they have to beg for a living under the hands of others, if they dare to act according to their hearts, against the other party's wishes, just wait to be tried.
Get up, whether it is her or Xu Changzai, I don't want to live in the Long Palace, but being assigned to live in the Long Palace is the emperor's will, and they can't change it. Thinking of the emperor, Qin Guiren only felt that his whole heart was extremely sour,
When she first entered the palace, the emperor turned her green head card at least five times in a month, which is not too many times in the harem concubines, and it is not difficult to see the emperor's favor for her, especially in the second month of entering the palace,
The emperor not only promoted her from Chang Zai to a nobleman, but also gave her the title "Qin", which was so glorious that it suddenly attracted her sour words among the harem concubines, but she was favored by the emperor for half a month for three consecutive months.
Her stomach never improved, and slowly, the emperor seemed to have forgotten her, and no longer turned over her green card, as if she had never appeared in his life. Desolation welled up in my heart,
After nearly a year, yesterday she was asking for peace to the concubines, listening to the other party's plans, she couldn't help but have a little thought, if the concubine can really listen to their "grievances", and mention the matter of "rain and dew are wet" in the emperor's premise, maybe she can be flopped by the emperor again, get the emperor's favor, and give birth to the emperor's heir.
Emperor...... They are all the emperor's women, losing the emperor's favor, in this harem is the existence of being stepped on, even if you are the master, as long as you have no holy favor, the slaves can step forward and step on your feet. What's more, the mother who lives in the same palace and is in the main position, in the eyes of the other party, she and Xu Changzai are no different from ordinary palace people.
The concubines are not favored, it is difficult to see the face of the emperor, they live in the palace of the concubines, they are forgotten by the emperor, and they are undoubtedly the same as the concubines. I just want ......
I only hope that their plans today will not be in vain, if any of the three can be flopped by the emperor in the near future, it will be good for the three of them - at least the emperor will occasionally move around in the long palace, and it will no longer be like a backwater, one after another, and there is no trace of light.
Compared with the two bannermen of the concubines and Wan nobles, Xu Changzai is a Han girl who entered the palace, and his father was a local county magistrate.
It's a completely inconspicuous existence in the harem.。 The draft has been left with a sign so far, and it was only at the beginning that the emperor was fortunate once, and he was canonized as a permanent presence, and since then, he has never received the holy favor.
Entered the palace draft at the age of fourteen, and now almost two years have passed, and she turned sixteen half a month ago, if nothing happens, Xu Changzai doesn't need to think much about the future, she knows it herself. Waiting for death, a flower, slowly withered in this deep palace, and then died silently.
At the end of May and the beginning of June, the air is undoubtedly getting more and more, but the early morning is still a little cool, and last night there was another rain, at this time the air in the Imperial Garden smells particularly fresh, and the breeze blows,
The faint fragrance of flowers lingers on the tip of the nose, it stands to reason that walking in such a royal garden, the heart should be more comfortable, but the concubine's face has not improved since she left the Chengqian Palace.
"It's okay for Yi Concubine's first child, but Concubine De, how long has it been since she was pregnant with another one, and this palace is not convinced!"
The eyelids drooped, and the concubine was supported by the palace maid, and her mouth kept scolding: "I think my Hesheri clan is noble, and I have good looks and talents, what is there that can't compare to a coated slave......"
After Qin Guiren and Xu Chang followed the concubine, no one interjected, just quietly listened to the concubine cursing the concubine Wu Ya, and helped the Sanrao palace maid, at this time, they didn't dare to come out, for fear that one would accidentally provoke the concubine to anger, the corners of their mouths were pursed, looking at the road under their feet, just as if they didn't hear the concubine's cursing words.
"Sixth elder brother walk slowly, my heart falls!"
Tuanzi Yinzhixu was three years old, had breakfast, and shouted that his brother Changsheng would take him to Ningshou Palace to play with the imperial grandmother, who knew that after arriving, he took Ye Xia's hand and shouted to go to the imperial garden to catch butterflies,
Ye Xia didn't think about the request for glutinous rice dumplings, so she hugged Gu Mochen with her mother and followed her, she picked up Yinzhi by herself, and took Mingyan, Mingcui and Mama Li, as well as the dumplings who had not yet entered the study room, and the group came to the Imperial Garden.
At this time, Ye Xia sat in a pavilion with a danzi Gu Mochen in his arms, blowing a gentle breeze, smiling and watching the big danzi shuttling through the imperial garden to catch butterflies and clinker, and suddenly an exclamation floated into his ears, followed by the cry of Tuanzi Yinzhi.
With a slight frown, she handed the dumpling Gu Mochen to her mother's hand and walked out of the pavilion.
The concubine was very angry, thinking that a brother who was less than three years old knew how to bully her, obviously she was walking well, but suddenly something came out from behind the rockery, and she was so frightened that she raised her foot and kicked it out, and as a result, exclamations and children's cries instantly sounded.
Is she to blame?
It's obviously not her fault, crying so loudly, what do you want to do?
"Sixth Elder Brother, you crashed into my foot and fell."
In order to avoid responsibility, the concubine thought about it, gritted her teeth, and pressed the mistake directly on Tuanzi Yinzhi, and at the same time, she also asked Qin Guiren and Xu Changzai to testify to her: "What are you all looking at this palace? Bengong didn't lie, Qin Guiren and Xu Changzai saw it just now, it was the sixth elder brother who hit my leg and fell. ”
Tuanzi Yinzhi was picked up by his mother, along with the mother of several other dumplings and the palace maids and eunuchs who served the dumplings, as well as a large number of dumplings, all locked their eyes on the concubines, and the words "you lie" were clearly written in their eyes.
Qin Guiren and Xu Chang hated their concubines to death at this moment, what did they see? Just now, they all lowered their eyebrows, listening to the concubines insulting the concubines as they walked, as for how the sixth elder brother fell, none of them saw it, but they were pulled out by the concubines to make perjury, if this stabbed the emperor, what do you want them to do?
Don't see it?
It is certain to offend the concubines, and when you turn around, you will inevitably be severely suppressed by the concubines in the long palace.
See?
This is a bully, once the emperor finds out the reason why the third elder brother fell, and how will they live?
"What's going on?"
Ye Xia's voice came, and the mothers immediately turned to Ye Xia to salute with their respective masters, seeing this, Ye Xia waved his hand casually, and heard Changsheng's voice: "Huang Mama, it's the concubine Niangniang who is bad, she raised her foot and kicked Yinzhi to the ground, you see, Yinzhi's legs were kicked red." ”
Xia everyone was dressed thinly, and the group was long, so they pulled up Yinzhi's trouser leg and pointed to the place where they had been kicked by the concubine to show Ye Xia.
The moment the concubine heard Ye Xia's voice, she was frightened and tensed, and when she saw Ye Xia, she hurriedly saluted respectfully.
Qin Concubine and Xu Changzai saluted Ye Xia along with the concubines, however, Ye Xia waited for the mother and palace maids and eunuchs of the group, but did not let the three concubines and their palace maids be exempted.
"Concubine?"
Ye Xia's eyes were clear and indifferent, and she fell on the concubine who maintained the posture of saluting her.
"It's a concubine."
The concubine answered. Ye Xia said lightly: "Raise your head." ”
The heartstrings tightened, and the concubine bit her lip and slowly raised her head.
"Look into the eyes of the mourners,"
The expression on Ye Xia's face was always indifferent, and her voice couldn't hear the slightest anger, but she was like this, giving everyone present a sense of not being angry and threatening, and when she met the concubine's eyes, her shallow voice overflowed from Ye Xia's throat again: "Tell the mourning family, the sixth elder brother was kicked down by you?" ”
The concubine's gaze was slightly dull, she didn't know that she had been hypnotized, and responded: "It's a concubine." ”
This is not what she wants, the concubine shouted in her heart, but she couldn't control her mouth.
Ye Xia looked at the rockery nearby, and probably guessed what had happened just now.
Tuanzi Yinzhi too, ran to the rockery, just when the concubine came from the other side of the rockery, so, without waiting for the person who followed behind the Tuanzi Yinzhi to remind, he bumped into the concubine's leg, and the concubine was either distracted at the time, or the concubine was behind.
didn't notice that it was Brother Ah who hit her leg, and out of instinctive reaction, he kicked Tuanzi Yinzhi. With phosphorus in his heart, Ye Xia stepped forward to check Tuanzi Yinzhi's leg that was kicked by the concubine, and found that there was no major problem, so Fang put his mind at ease and locked his gaze on the concubine again: "Since you kicked down the sixth elder brother, then apologize to the sixth elder brother." ”
Although Tuanzi Yinzhi was coaxed by his mother to stop crying, the guy still sobbed, looking so pitiful.
"Mama Huangma's hug."
Stretching out two short lotus root arms towards Ye Xia, Tuanzi Yinzhi sniffed and raised his voice: "Niangniang is bad, kick Yinzhi." ”
Taking the dumplings from her mother's hand, Ye Xia looked gentle and smiled: "The concubine Niangniang should not be willing to kick you, let's let her give you a word of sorry, just forgive her, okay?" ”
Tuanzi Yinzhi wrapped his arms around her neck, his eyes were as red as a white rabbit, he looked at the concubine, tilted his head and thought about it, and then nodded his head, but his mouth was still aggrieved: "Yinzhi is in pain." ”
Ye Xia freed up a hand, kicked the guy to the right leg and lifted it up, approached and blew softly: "Mama gave us Yinzhi to blow and blew away." ”
"Fly away in pain?"
Tuanzi Yinzhi blinked and looked at Ye Xia.
"That's right, Mama blows, and flies away in pain, and our Yinzhi won't be in pain."
Then, Ye Xia blew lightly on the guy's lap, and then: "Later, Mama will apply some ointment to our Yinzhi, and our Yinzhi will be completely painless." ”
Tuanzi Yinzhi pursed his mouth tightly, and after a while, he squeezed out his voice: "Okay." ”
The concubine's heart was full of all kinds of feelings, she didn't know why she couldn't control her mouth just now, and replied that the queen mother was the sixth elder brother she kicked, and then the queen mother asked her to apologize to the sixth elder brother,
This is really a shameless thing for her, and when it reaches the harem, she is sure to be laughed at by the palace people, but this is more than stabbing the matter in front of the emperor, she thinks ...... Obeying the Queen Mother to apologize to the sixth elder brother and being ridiculed by the palace people, it was actually okay.
Because compared with the safety of the elder brothers, these concubines are just things for the emperor to relieve boredom in his spare time, and tools to spread the branches, if the emperor knows that she is kicking down the sixth elder brother in the imperial garden, in case of anger, demote her status, or put her full or something, this loss will be great.
At the moment, she is a concubine, and she can live in a palace, once the position is lowered, it doesn't take much, she has to make room.
Foot?
She is currently different from the cold palace, and if she is enough, I am afraid that she will not leave a good impression in the emperor's heart, and will even attract the emperor's complete disgust, and at that time, her chance of turning over will definitely be even more slim.
Thinking so, the concubine stood up straight and apologized very sincerely to Tuanzi Yinzhi.
"Brother Ben listens to Huang Mama, I will forgive you this time!"
Tuanzi Yinzhi looked straight at the concubine like an adult, and said in a loud voice, and then he lay on Ye Xia's shoulder and no longer paid attention to the other party.
The turmoil was simply resolved by Ye Xia, and the concubine knew that it was no longer appropriate to continue to stay in the Imperial Garden, so she saluted Ye Xia again, and retired with Qin Guiren and Xu Changzai.
"Huang Mama, do you just let go of the concubine?"
Looking at the backs of the concubines who were far away, Changsheng puffed out his cheeks and hugged his younger brother Yinzhi: "The concubine Niangniang kicked Yinzhi's legs red, she is not a good person." ”
Ye Xia's eyebrows and eyes were full of warmth, and she smiled, "The concubine shouldn't have intentionally kicked down Yinzhi, look at this rockery, just now it should have been Yinzhi who suddenly ran over and hit the concubine's leg, and the concubine didn't pay attention, so she kicked Yinzhi down." ”
After a slight pause, she deliberately lowered her voice, bent over with Yinzhi in her arms, and asked Changsheng: "Think about it again, does she dare to deliberately kick Yinzhi concubine?" ”
