Chapter 20: Protecting the Mother
"The rules of the Eight Imperial Maidens are well learned." Concubine De looked at their mother and daughter with some meaning.
Xuan Ling was still young, and he didn't understand what the other party meant for a while, a blank look flashed in his eyes, and he looked up at his mother.
Concubine Rou's face looked a little ugly, and she took a deep breath, not wanting to continue to entangle with Concubine De.
"We're going to be here for a long time." Concubine Rou sneered, pulled her daughter and left immediately.
Now that they have torn their faces, there is naturally no need to continue to be hypocritical.
One day, she will have to let Concubine De bow at her feet!
Xuan Ling also looked a little indignant: "Concubine De and that fool are so hateful, why should she protect that fool?" ”
"Concubine De has a strong mother's backing, so she naturally has no scruples, and she can protect anyone if she wants to." Concubine Rou's eyes flashed, and she raised her hand to stroke Xuan Ling's hair, "We can only rely on your father." ”
At the mention of his father, the corners of Xuan Ling's mouth couldn't help but hook up a smile, and he raised his chin, looking very proud.
She has been favored by her father since she was a child, and as for the fool who came out of nowhere, it is not enough to compare with her.
Originally, Concubine Rou pleaded with the emperor and took Xuan Ling and Xuan Han to dine together tonight.
Xuan Han naturally also showed that he liked this daughter quite much, and after leaving at night, he waved his hand again, and people sent a lot of rewards, and it spread all over the harem that night.
Naturally, Concubine Rou slept that night, and the scenery was infinite for a while.
Naturally, people can see her status in the harem and her favor with the emperor.
After hearing the news, Concubine De only sneered and pursed her lips, not taking this situation to heart at all.
"Favored? So what? Concubine De seemed to be smiling, and her eyes were full of cold looks.
Do you think she was still less favored at the beginning? But that's just ......
I don't know what I thought, Concubine De suddenly closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and didn't say anything more, but the thoughts in her heart were only clear to him.
When she opened her eyes again, Concubine De's mood had stabilized, and she no longer thought about these messy things.
"The emperor's favor is important, but the emperor is not a fool, is it true that he will punish me for Concubine Rou and the Eighth Imperial Maiden?" Concubine De looked at the worried eyes of the palace maids beside her, and only said slowly.
As long as his mother's family does not fall, no matter what kind of conflict occurs, it will definitely not have any impact on her.
As long as she can be steady, then there is no need to say much about this future.
"Is the mother really okay?" A look of worry also flashed in Xuan Jia's eyes.
Although she doesn't know much about this, when she was making clover, Sister Peony had already told her a lot, and she naturally knew the situation.
There are a lot of open and secret battles in the harem, and if you have to get involved in this, it will definitely be dangerous.
"Jiajia rest assured, the battle in this harem will definitely not have much impact, and it is not a big deal in itself." Concubine De said this quite calmly, as if she didn't take this matter to heart at all, and what should happen after that, of course, there is no need to say more.
Xuanjia naturally knew that Concubine De was not a person who had no power to fight back, so she really didn't say too much, and she must have some success in her own heart, so she definitely couldn't hold back.
"As long as the mother's backstage does not fall, there will be absolutely no accident, and you can rest assured of this." Concubine De also said with a smile.
Xuanjia couldn't help blinking, not knowing what Concubine De was referring to backstage.
Looking at her innocent appearance, Concubine De couldn't help laughing.
"Silly boy, of course, my mother's family, as long as my mother's family does not fall, then even the emperor is helpless, as long as I don't make big mistakes, I can stand still."
As early as the beginning of entering the palace, Concubine De had already understood this, so her confidence has never been a so-called favor, and her backing will always be her mother's family.
"The front and harem are originally complementary to each other, so even if there is no so-called favor, as long as the mother's family benefits, then the mother concubine can also walk sideways in this harem, as for other people, it is naturally not necessary to pay attention to it."
Concubine De talked to her baby daughter about some ways to survive in the harem, but more often she told him that she could do whatever she wanted, and she would carry everything around, and there was really no one to spoil her daughter to this extent.
Xuanjia nodded as if she didn't understand, and there was a hint of thoughtfulness in her eyes, she was naturally quite clear in her heart about these things, and there was nothing to say at all.
Although Concubine De has always looked a little arrogant and domineering, this is just a protective color for her.
Although Xuanjia doesn't seem to understand some things, she can still understand this.
Xuan Jia also looked at Concubine De very solemnly: "Don't worry, I can also protect you." ”
Hearing this, Concubine De couldn't help laughing, whether it was true or false, she thought she could still tell it.
Therefore, I don't think there is anything wrong, and her daughter suddenly said this, she must be quite happy in her heart.
"Jiajia has always been a good child, so she will also protect her mother, and of course her mother knows this." Concubine De raised her hand and rubbed her hair, and she could see that she was in a pretty good mood.
On the second day, I didn't expect to run into Concubine Rou again, and the other party didn't look like he was scheming before, but looked more and more virtuous.
The emperor's favor will really give people confidence, so much so that he now looks down on Concubine De.
But for her little bit of caution, Concubine De really didn't take it to heart, is there anything else to say about this kind of thing?
Xuanjia only regarded it as if he couldn't see it, and ignored their existence at all, so when it came to these seriously, their mother and daughter were indeed quite similar, and they didn't take Concubine Rou and their mother and daughter in their eyes at all.
Originally, everyone has been holding it today, but they never thought that such a thing would be encountered!
Concubine Rou's face suddenly became a little ugly, Concubine De and this fool, can't you see it at all?
Xuan Ling is still young, and he puts his thoughts on his face, but he has been told before and will not show it too obviously.
In fact, under the teaching of Concubine Rou, Xuan Lingye has been a two-faced style, at least when she is in front of people, she has always looked at a gentle and lovely little girl.
is favored by the emperor itself, and is naturally full of confidence.
Xuanjia and Concubine De were impatient to entangle with them and left early.
"Mother, that fool is really too deceitful!" Xuan Ling's voice was a little trembling, and he seemed to be a little choked.
Concubine Rou is naturally unwilling, but Concubine De is different, of course she can't do too much.
It's not nice to say, even if she offends the queen, she can't offend Concubine De.
Concubine Rou took a deep breath and took her daughter back, still thinking about how to give Concubine De eye medicine to the emperor.
In fact, if she wants to please Xuan Han, it couldn't be simpler, if she didn't know it clearly in her heart, as long as she was willing to torture Xuan Jing, she would naturally be able to do it in his heart.
Thinking of this, Concubine Rou couldn't help but feel moved, and immediately called her confidant eunuch to arrange this matter.
Xuanjia and Concubine De didn't mention this matter again after they went back, as if it was just an unimportant matter, and it had already disappeared in their place.
Xuanjing's side suddenly had a problem, and no one expected Concubine Rou to pass at this time.
When he learned the news, Xuanjia had just had dinner with Defei and was walking in the palace to eat, listening to the begonia flowers next to him, the news came, and his face suddenly had a worried look.
Concubine Rou went to the cold palace at this time, it must have been a bad person.
Xuanjia's little face was tense, and he was about to go to the cold palace immediately, at least he couldn't let people bully his father.
However, it will soon be time to go to bed, if Xuanjia wants to go out at this time, it must be to find a suitable reason, otherwise Concubine De will definitely not agree.
Thinking of this, her little face couldn't help but wrinkle, and she was really a little worried.
It's getting dark, and she wants to go out at this time, which is indeed extremely abrupt and makes people feel a little inappropriate.
But if you don't go, Xuanjia is indeed a little worried about Xuanjing, and it is really a bit of a dilemma.
After thinking about it carefully, Xuanjia simply went back to his bedroom to prepare for rest, the sky was getting darker, and Concubine De should not come over.
After letting everyone go out, she quietly climbed out of the window and hurried to the cold palace.
After arriving here, she didn't rush to visit Xuanjing, but first went to find Grandma Huaishu and Sister Peony to understand what happened.
At this moment, Concubine Rou was already in front of Xuanjing.
Looking at the person who was originally high up and could only be curried by the knees, but now in front of her like a prisoner, Concubine Rou couldn't be happier.
"Look at the emperor's embarrassed appearance now, did you ever think that there would be today?" Concubine Rou looked at Xuan Jing with great mockery, and the smile on her face was not concealed at all.
Xuan Jing looked at the woman in front of him expressionlessly, and a dark light flashed quickly in his eyes, before, it was indeed that he was blind, and he would pamper this kind of femme fatale. He never expected that this woman would have such courage!
"Concubine Rou, your courage is not small." Xuanjing's face darkened, and he said in a deep voice.
