Volume 1 - Wisdom of the Shotai Chapter 13 (13)
The father-in-law stood on the sandalwood steps and shouted: "The imperial concubine of the Yejiu clan, Huanshan, pays a visit to the imperial concubine of the Great Hui Dynasty, Lieshan Clan's Errong!" β
Phantom Shan straightened her sleeves, straightened the majestic crown of the concubine, stepped forward, and knelt on the ground: "Ye Jiu's Phantom Shan meets the imperial concubine!" β
The Lieshan clan said calmly, "Raise your head! β
Phantom Shan looked up slowly.
The two looked at each other.
I saw that the Lieshan clan was sitting on the back chair of the hundred-year-old maple wood with the hardest wood, the purest color, and each piece of the tree exuding a dark fragrance.
Lieshan Clan Errong squinted his eyes and looked at the little girl in front of him, although he was fifteen years old, his eyes were firm, although he knelt down, he had a noble aura, her beauty was not a pool of calm water nourished by the abyss of the palace, but the most agile and lively spirit in the vast world.
"Slap three times!" The Lieshan clan said calmly.
The father-in-law was slightly startled, and then regained his calm.
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Huan Shan's mouth: "Imperial Concubine, this is a special meeting gift!" β
Aunt Yingmei of the Hanyuan Palace of the Lieshan clan stepped forward.
The concubines in the hall turned their heads intentionally or unintentionally, and no one said a word.
"Bang Bang!" Yingmei shook her hand and slapped Phantom Shan three times!
Phantom Shan's four bride-maids knelt beside her, their bodies trembling.
The corners of Phantom Shan's mouth were bloodshot, and she didn't move, still maintaining a vague smile.
The father-in-law stepped forward and reminded Huan Shan softly: "The imperial concubine of the Ye Jiu clan, you should be humble when you speak to the imperial concubine!" β
Phantom Shan bowed his head and kowtowed: "Concubine Yejiu, thank you for the grace of the imperial concubine!" β
The Lieshan clan looked at her with contempt.
"The imperial concubines of the Ye Jiu clan meet the imperial concubines of the palaces!" The father-in-law shouted again.
Under the Lieshan clan, there are the concubines of the Shantai clan from the paternal feudal state of Chester, the princess of the Malan clan from Nanshu, the princess of the Niande clan from Xiaochu, and the princess of Kadanlan from Kadanlan.
These four concubines are all concubines inherited from his brother's harem after Tantai Haoxiu killed his brother Tantai Haoyou three years ago.
Only Emperor Concubine Errong of the Lieshan clan is the main concubine of Shantai Haoxiu, and because of this, three years ago, Lieshan Zhaocai, who served as the head of the Lieshan clan and held the financial power of the Dahui Dynasty, conspired with Tangtai Haoxiu to make a coup d'Γ©tat and pushed her daughter to the back seat of the concubine.
Huan Shan and the imperial concubines saluted in turn.
Every time she knelt, the four bridemaids around her knelt with her. After this round of salutation, it has been more than half an hour.
There was a mountain shout outside the hall: "Your Majesty has arrived!" β
Confuse the public and the horse to kneel.
The Lieshan clan also left the back chair of the maple wood and knelt down with his sleeves folded.
Phantom Shan and the maids walked to the side on their knees and knelt on the ground.
"I'm here to see the new princess!" Yutai Haoxiu strode into the hall, and the inner attendants behind him and the golden gunners of the Tianwei Army stayed outside the hall.
"Concubines and others greet Your Majesty!" Lieshan Clan Errong led the concubines to kneel to welcome the Tai Haoxiu.
Yutai Haoxiu raised his hand casually, and his father-in-law got up and shouted, "Flat." β
The concubines are flat.
The Lieshan clan was flat and greeted Hao Xiu with a smile: "Your Majesty, the new imperial concubine of the Yejiu clan has arrived." The concubine has made people clean the Shouyuan Palace, so the new Yejiu Imperial Concubine will live in the Shouyuan Palace, and it can also comfort the spirit of the deceased Yejiu Imperial Princess. What does Your Majesty think? β
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was shocked.
The three of Ye Jiu's imperial concubines, Phantom Color, mother and son, were killed for less than a month, and they wanted to let her own sister live in, which was really terrifying.
Phantom Shan, who was kneeling on the ground, did not look up or speak.
"Ye Jiu, get up." Hao Xiu said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Phantom Shan slowly got up.
Hao Xiu squinted his eyes and looked at the new imperial concubine in front of him, looking at a woman with the eyes of a mature man, peeling off the cocoon, from top to bottom. Slowly, his expression changed subtly.
The Lieshan clan and the concubines all quietly looked at Hao Xiu's expression.
Phantom Shan calmly looked at Yutai Haoxiu.
Standing in front of her and making the land of Rongzhou tremble, the Emperor of the Shantai Clan was young, handsome, and personable, if it weren't for the intensive training of her by the Father of Jingnan Kingdom, she would not believe that the man in front of her, who many Huaichun girls dreamed of, would be a conspirator who killed her brother and usurped it.
All the people of Jingnan know that the new Emperor of Shantai loves her sister Pang very much, but it was this person who ordered the killing of her sister, mother and son, and the people around him were all accomplices, a group of sinners who were unrelenting and complicit.
And she will survive in this quagmire of sin and seek justice for her sister.
There was a faint smile on the corner of Phantom Shan's mouth.
But apparently, Hao Xiu misunderstood her smile, and his face rippled with the emperor's unfathomable laughter, he turned around and walked up the sandalwood steps, and said as if casually:
"Okay, their sisters originally looked similar, and their temperaments are roughly the same, right? Imperial Princess, would you like to live in your sister's Shouyuan Palace? If you don't want to, I'll help you choose another palace. β
"The concubine is willing!" Phantom Shan bowed slightly and thanked him.
Hao Xiu seemed to see a bloodshot on the corner of Huan Shan's mouth at this time: "What's wrong with the imperial concubine?" β
The father-in-law was taken aback, and looked at the Lieshan clan with some surprise.
At this time, the Lieshan clan also realized that Phantom Shan hadn't wiped the blood from the corners of her mouth for so long, I don't know if she deliberately let those blood stains stay on her face, or if she didn't care at all?
The faces of the concubines are some cheerful, some melancholy, some want to watch the play, and some are afraid of the ending.
The crowd looked at Phantom Shan obliquely.
Phantom Shan said flatly: "The concubine doesn't understand the rules, the imperial concubine educates the concubine!" β
Lieshan Clan's Errong was much shorter, and he looked at Hao Xiu and wanted to explain: "Concubine-"
In the past, all the concubines were punished, and in order not to be enemies of the imperial concubine in the future, they would not say it in front of His Majesty, and even if they were bumped into by His Majesty, they would euphemistically say that it was their own inadvertence.
However, on the first day that Ye Jiu Huanshan entered the Changyuan Purple Palace, he told Hao Xiu in public that the imperial concubine punished her, it can be said that she is innocent and discordant with the world, and it can also be said that she is meaningless how to live in the future.
Hao Xiu squinted his eyes and looked at Er Rong, and said slowly, "My new concubine, aren't you afraid of being broken?" β
Lieshan Clan Errong knelt on the ground in fright: "Don't dare, concubine!" β
Hao Xiu was a little displeased: "Get up!" Ye Jiu, you are new to the palace, if you don't understand the rules, you can ask your father-in-law. Confused father-in-law, if the Ye Jiu clan violates the palace rules again, I will ask you! β
The father-in-law was so frightened that he knelt down: "The old slave will remind the princess of Ye Jiu from time to time!" β
