Chapter 692 Promoted to the position of concubine
The little eunuch beside the emperor came to inform that Jiang Guiren had been named Jiang Concubine, and all the palaces were immersed in joy. Concubine Jiang thanked the little eunuch, and not long after the little eunuch left, Lin Guiren came to congratulate. Concubine Jiang is not familiar with Lin Guiren, although the two entered the palace at the same time, they actually don't have much intersection, and they don't see each other very much on weekdays. Because recently, Lin Guiren is also more favored. Suddenly coming today, Concubine Jiang was also a little uneasy in her heart, and she didn't know what Lin Guiren's intentions were.
After Lin Guiren came, he blessed Concubine Jiang slightly, and said loudly: "Concubine see Concubine Jiang." Concubine Jiang hurriedly helped Lin Guiren and said, "There is no need to be like this, you and I entered the palace at the same time, although I was named Concubine Jiang today, you and I don't have to see each other like this." Lin Guiren smiled, gently took Concubine Jiang's hand, and said softly: "Sister is now Concubine Jiang, although I say so, I still have to have the etiquette that should be there, otherwise I will inevitably talk about it when I see it by the person who has a heart." ”
Concubine Jiang saw Lin Guiren say this, Lin Guiren spoke and acted extremely politely, and she was slightly relieved, so she took the initiative to take Lin Guiren's hand and let her sit down. The palace maid hurriedly served tea to Lin Guiren.
Lin Guiren picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, always smiled on his face, and ordered the palace maid who accompanied him to present a box, and then said: "My sister has been in the palace for so long, and I haven't come to visit my sister yet, and today my sister happened to be named Jiang Concubine, so my sister took advantage of today to come to visit, gave my sister a hosta, and hoped that my sister would accept it." ”
Concubine Jiang slowly opened the box in front of her, and there was a hosta lying in the box, only to see that this hosta was clear and beautiful, and it was not an ordinary hosta at first glance. Concubine Jiang closed the lid and pushed the box forward gently, "How can you be embarrassed to accept such a valuable gift, my sister should take it." ”
Lin Guiren smiled again, opened the box, took out the hosta inside, and gently inserted it into Concubine Jiang's sideburns, "Sister Hui spirituality, this hosta is very compatible with my sister, so my sister will take it, this is also my sister's intention." Sister take it. ”
Concubine Jiang no longer shirked, took off the hairpin and put it in the box, and asked the palace maid to take inventory and put it in the warehouse. "My sister has a heart, I like this hosta very much."
"My sister likes it, the concubine doesn't walk around with other people on weekdays, that day Wei is often bullying Ning Guiren, you speak up, so that my sister is very admired, yesterday's Lantern Festival dinner, my sister is ingenious, the self-made Lantern Festival is very unique, and it also impresses my sister. That's why I came here today. ”
Concubine Jiang couldn't guess what Lin Guiren meant when she heard it, she was worried that Lin Guiren was sent by Du Qinyue, so after a little thought, she said: "My sister is really tormenting my sister like this, I just couldn't see it that day, so I went to argue with Wei Chang, I am most unaccustomed to that kind of bullying on weekdays, and the one I admire the most is the queen mother." ”
Concubine Jiang said this and let Lin Guiren understand who she was. Moreover, these words were also a euphemism to tell Lin Guiren that he was on the side of the queen's mother, if Lin Guiren was really sent by Du Qinyue, it would be regarded as breaking her thoughts.
I never thought that Lin Guiren would be overjoyed after hearing this, and asked in surprise: "Really?" That's great, and I have a lot of respect for the Queen, and I want to try to be like the Queen, but ...... It's just that I'm too stupid to know what to do. Lin Guiren scratched his head in embarrassment.
Concubine Jiang listened to it, and she was relieved now. Looking at Lin Guiren's appearance, coupled with Lin Guiren's usual behavior, Jiang Concubine believed that Lin Guiren's heart was kind, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a smile, and said: "That's really good, I never thought that Lin Guiren and you have the same mind as me, I know that Ning Guiren also has a good relationship with the queen mother, but it's a pity that Ning Guiren is about to go to Wushan Villa to take care of the queen mother." From now on, the two of us will take care of each other and help each other, sister...... Would you like to? Lin Guiren nodded happily.
Concubine Jiang and Lin Guiren had a good conversation here, but it was not so good in Lanyue Palace. With a bang, the delicate teacup shattered to the ground. "What kind of thing is she, she dares to compete with this palace for favor, if it weren't for me, she would be where she is today?"
Du Qinyue's hand that had just dropped the cup was trembling slightly, and Xiu'er hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down and said: "Niangniang is angry, Niangniang is angry, Niangniang is angry, for these trivial things, Niangniang is not worth being angry, if she is angry, how can it be good." ”
"A small thing, you say it's a small thing, then what do you say is a big thing, do you have to wait until the palace completely falls out of favor, or is beaten into the cold palace, that's a big thing, ah?" As he spoke, he threw down the teacup he had just taken down again, and the teacup fell onto Xiu'er's head, and in an instant, Xiu'er's head was dripping with blood, and the blood slowly left along Xiu'er's head, but Xiu'er didn't even dare to wipe it, and hurriedly kowtowed to Du Qinyue, "Niangniang is angry, it's the slave's stupid mouth, it's all the slave's fault, Niangniang is angry." ”
Du Qinyue glanced at Xiu'er coldly, and the corners of her mouth actually hooked up a sneer, "Du Lianghuan is just a dog in this palace, she thinks that dancing a dance to win the emperor's favor will win the emperor's heart?" Hmph, it's ridiculous, how good she thinks she is, what kind of wind and waves she can set off. ”
Xiu'er heard this and hurriedly said: "What Niangniang said is right, how can she be better than Niangniang, she is just making waves for a while, she can't be compared to Niangniang." When Du Qinyue heard this, she felt a little better, but now there was a bigger person in front of her, who made her even more upset: Concubine Jiang.
Concubine Jiang didn't have a long time to enter the palace, and she was directly promoted from Chang Zai to the concubine, and now Shen Huo is completely focused on Concubine Jiang. The more Du Qinyue thought about it, the more angry she became, she wanted to rectify Concubine Jiang fiercely, but Shen Huo was so tight with Concubine Jiang that she couldn't do it.
Du Qinyue thought about it again and again, looked at the embroidery that was trembling with fright below, and suddenly had a plan, and smiled coldly, she would definitely not let her go this time......
After a few days, Ning Rongzhi thought that Concubine Jiang had helped him, and now he was about to leave, so he was about to go to Concubine Jiang's place to go around, Ning Rongzhi walked halfway and saw Du Qinyue, Ning Rongzhi found that Du Qinyue was also going to Concubine Jiang's palace, thinking that if Du Qinyue saw him, Du Qinyue might be stumbling again, so he walked behind Du Qinyue not far away, and Du Qinyue never found that Ning Rongzhi was behind him.
When he was about to walk to Concubine Jiang's place, Ning Rongzhi saw that Du Qinyue handed Xiu'er a paper bag, and he didn't know what was in it. Ning Rongzhi was suspicious and suspected that Du Qinyue was going to trouble Concubine Jiang, so he did not enter Concubine Jiang's palace, but kept staring at it from a distance away.
Du Qinyue just entered, Lin Guiren also came, since the last time the two talked, now Lin Guiren comes back to the Jiang Concubine Palace every day, Lin Guiren saw Ning Rongzhi and was about to call her, but Ning Rongzhi signaled Lin Guiren not to make a sound. Lin Guiren saw that Ning Rongzhi was mysterious, so he quietly walked over and asked softly, "What is Ning Guiren doing here?" Ning Rongzhi knew that Lin Guiren was friendly with Concubine Jiang, and he also knew Lin Guiren's personality, so he told Lin Guiren everything he saw.
Lin Guiren was very surprised after hearing this, she never thought that Du Qinyue would be such a person, and said hesitantly: "Yes...... Probably not. Ning Rongzhi knew very well what Du Qinyue was like, so he asked Lin Guiren to follow him.
Inside the palace of Jiang Concubine
After Du Qinyue entered, Concubine Jiang hurriedly invited Du Qinyue to sit down, and Du Qinyue said in a weird manner: "Concubine Jiang, this palace came here today to congratulate you on your promotion to the concubine position." Concubine Jiang knew that Du Qinyue was deliberately sarcastic, and said with a smile: "The concubine thanked Concubine Shuniang, and the concubine also wished Concubine Shufei Niangniang to become a concubine as soon as possible." Du Qinyue's teeth itched when she heard this, but after thinking about it, she immediately smiled and said, "That palace is really grateful to Concubine Jiang for having this thought." Concubine Jiang listened and did not answer.
Du Qinyue raised her hand, covered her mouth with a handkerchief and coughed lightly, "This palace has come to you all the way, and your mouth is really dry, why, Concubine Jiang, you don't even serve tea to this palace in the future?" Concubine Jiang hurriedly ordered the palace maid to serve tea, and the palace maid was about to go out, but Xiu'er grabbed the palace maid and said: "Our mother's taste is more unique, and she is used to drinking the tea I make, so let me go." The palace maid and Xiu'er excused themselves for a while, the palace maid turned her head to look at Concubine Jiang, Concubine Jiang nodded, the palace maid had to put it down, and Xiu'er went out immediately.
Outside the hall, Ning Rongzhi and Lin Guiren had been waiting for a long time, Lin Guiren felt that Ning Rongzhi was too suspicious, and was about to leave, only to see a palace maid walk out of the hall, it was Xiu'er, so he moved forward slightly, only to see Xiu'er take a closer look at the cup in his hand.
Ning Rongzhi didn't know what Xiu'er was doing, so he had to continue watching. I saw Xiu'er turn her head slightly, and saw that no one outside the hall was paying attention to herself, so she took out the small paper bag that Du Qinyue gave her, and sprinkled the powder in it into one of the cups. Ning Rongzhi and Lin Guiren were very surprised, thinking that Du Qinyue was going to poison Concubine Jiang, and Lin Guiren was about to go over to arrest her and get her personal stolen goods, but Ning Rongzhi grabbed her and said something in her ear, and Lin Guiren nodded immediately.
Xiu'er returned to the main hall and served the tea one by one, Du Qinyue glanced at Xiu'er, and Xiu'er nodded slightly. Concubine Jiang didn't notice the movement between the two, picked up the cup, and took a sip of tea, Du Qinyue smiled slightly, without words.
At this moment, Lin Guiren entered the hall, and after thinking about Concubine Jiang and Du Qinyue's blessings, he also sat down, looked at the table, and deliberately said to Concubine Jiang: "Sister, what kind of tea are you drinking, why does the color look different from that of the concubine and the concubine." Concubine Jiang glanced at her tea cup and didn't find anything wrong, so she smiled softly, "I'm afraid my sister is dazzled, this tea is clearly the same, what's the difference?" ”
As soon as Concubine Jiang's words fell, before Lin Guiren could answer, she saw Du Qinyue suddenly spit out the tea she had drunk in her mouth.
