Extra two: The thief
If you want to say that the life of the harem is the best, most people will think of Concubine Hao for the first time.
I think she is just the daughter of a county Cheng who was born in a poor township, she grew up under her stepmother, and her father was not a good person, and she was later promoted to the capital, giving enough resources and opportunities, but it was just a book that she had repaired for a lifetime.
The mother's family is not strong, entering the palace is only a small promise, living in the most remote place in the harem, this can be favored in one fell swoop, the favor is not declining, the children are complete, the emperor is favored, the son also became the prince, there is the emperor's love, and the prince is filial, Princess Yongping often enters the palace to relieve the palace, which can be described as the ultimate dream of the harem woman......
"No, in my opinion, Chen Guiren's life is really good."
The palace maid in Xihua Garden sat and whispered.
As mentioned earlier, after Xie Che abdicated to the crown prince, he only took Empress Taishang and Concubine Haogui to Xihua Garden for retirement, but in fact, there was another person who was not noticed by anyone, who was packed into a carriage by Concubine Haogui and brought to Xihua Garden.
That's Chen Guiren.
"If Chen Guiren's life is good, he won't even be a master mother."
"It is said that it is because he has not been favored, so it is not in accordance with the rules to go up further."
The concubines who can be brought to Xihuayuan to accompany them should have been favored by the emperor, and it stands to reason that they will be sealed, and the actual treatment will not change too much, and the title is good, and they can also be called Concubine Chen. But because the Emperor Taishang didn't miss her, he didn't seem to care much about her, so he stayed in the position of a noble person embarrassed!
According to Yan Chi's old example, Concubine Chen can't afford it.
Hengzhu is not in the palace, and the palace people call Chen Guiren nonsense according to the previous name.
If you want to say that Chen Guiren has not been favored in his life, there is also a saying, which has to be traced back to more than 20 years ago.
β¦β¦
Xie Che rewards and punishes the courtiers and concubines clearly, the Chen family has been in the noble position for a long time, and she is one of the few close people around Concubine Hao, he intends to raise her status, but the upper limit of the concubines who have not been favored is on the noble position, so the matter is screwed here.
He struggled for two days, and finally turned over Chen Guiren's brand.
Chen Guiren, who has been a thief for more than ten years, took over the car with sincere fear, she had long forgotten the rules she had learned when she entered the palace, and the other concubines took over the car with a beautiful posture, only she slipped out of the shadows all the way, and shrunk into a ball when she knelt down, only scared.
Xie Che looked at it quite strangely: "What are you shaking?" I don't eat people. β
"The concubine is afraid that she will not serve well and anger the holy face."
Xie Che looked at Hexiang who was kneeling next to herβeven the big palace maid beside her was calmer than her: "Help Chen Guiren in." β
Entering the house, the warm charcoal fire blew, and Chen Guiren stood next to him like a piece of wood, ignoring the frequent hints of lotus incense, and ignoring the emperor's drape.
"Sit down."
Chen Guiren commanded one action after another, and his buttocks didn't dare to sit down, so he sat on the sidelines.
Xie Che wondered: "You are not like this in front of Concubine Hao." β
"Then the concubine invited the mother over?"
Hearing Jiang Xian's name, Chen Guiren raised his little face eagerly.
Hearing this, Xie Che choked.
Even if he is already a powerful emperor, he doesn't like to be two maids and a husband! Chen Guiren didn't know that the emperor was driving in his head, she only instinctively felt that Jiang Xian was there, and she had confidence. She is not thorough, she forgets the rules, and often asks for lotus incense...... People know that they are not clever enough, so they try not to hang out in front of their superiors.
"In the eyes of Chen Guiren, will I punish you for trivial matters?" Xie Che sighed leisurely: "Over the years, I have treated you quite well. β
"The grace of God is solemn, and the concubines are afraid."
Chen Guiren blinked, these eight words were also quite against his will.
In her heart, she can live well because of Jiang Xian.
Xie Che looked at it and felt that something was wrong, Chen Guiren was not very clever, but if he really had such a temperament, he would probably not be able to enter the palace, so he asked carefully. Chen Guiren was stunned for a moment, with a look of reminiscence on his face, and he replied very frankly: "When the concubine went to the imperial garden alone to enjoy the flowers for the first time, she was caught by Guo Xiaoyi and punished for kneeling, so painful that the concubine thought that she was going to be bad for the rest of her life...... Thinking about it, it's still a lot of misfortune, it's better to stay by Concubine Hao's side obediently. β
After hearing what she said, Xie Che remembered this matter.
At the beginning, Guo Guiren punished a Chen promise, but it was not a big deal, and he didn't feel at ease.
"Later, there were always mothers who tried their best to target their concubines......"
Chen Guiren snorted.
Xie Che knew in his heart, Chen Guiren was grateful to Xian'er for protecting her, but in fact, many unnecessary swords also fell into her hands because of Xian'er - low-ranking concubines who have no favor and no children are transparent people in the harem, at most they are sad because they are embarrassed by the Internal Affairs Bureau, but the queen is wise and will never teach them to live uncomfortably.
A little Chen, punished her for kneeling and slapping her mouth to ask her to copy books, and no one supported her, like an antfly, she couldn't get into the eyes of jackals, tigers and leopards, let alone regarded her as an opponent, and bullied her to be cheap.
But Chen Guiren is the first proud person by Jiang Xian's side, and crushing her has become an impossible thing to do, so the jackals, tigers and leopards are ready to move, and they want to poke her with their hands, or use this to slap Jiang Xian's face.
Blessings and misfortunes depend on each other.
Chen Guiren didn't expect it to be deeper, she instinctively felt that it was very safe to stay by Jiang Xian's side, she didn't go out alone for nothing, and she didn't want to face the emperor alone.
Seeing this, Xie Che was a little soft-hearted, so he spread it out and said to her: "The palace concubine who has not accepted the favor is coming to an end, if you want to go further, this matter cannot be escaped," he paused: "I want to listen to your opinion." β
What a man thinks cannot be separated from his education.
Xie Che didn't want to spoil Chen Guiren, he looked at her like a panicked little animal, very fresh and unpretentious, but he didn't eat this one either, but Xian'er always thought about promotion before, and expected that the people around her would be the same.
So, the emperor, who had not been in the palace of other concubines for a long time, turned over Chen Guiren's brand.
After crossing this threshold, it is not a dream to be a concubine in the future.
The two looked at each other, and they both felt like they were on the execution ground.
After a while, Chen Guiren whispered: "There is nothing bad about being a nobleman, the concubine likes to be a nobleman, and I just ask the emperor to let the concubine stay by the side of the concubine's sister for a long time, and treat the concubine as a kitten and a puppy." β
Shecher: ......
That's his grace, his beloved concubine!
Shecher made her think about it and said that he would not come a second time, and he had a headache talking to her.
"As long as I can stay by the side of my sister concubine, the concubine will be willing to go back and agree."
After listening to Chen Guiren's intentions, Xie Che was so happy that he stopped persuading and went back to Qiankun Palace to criticize and fold.
No third party knew about this inside story, so there were rumors that Chen Guiren was angry with Shengyan and was forever shelved the jade plate.
-----------------
Chen Guiren didn't care, he was just a false name.
With Jiang Xian's side, she lived more nourishingly than anyone else.
Could it be that the dining room would withhold her meal because she was not the lady of the throne? It's not easy to buckle up, Chen Guiren is greedy and tricky, and every time he passes the meal, he plays the banner of Concubine Haogui, and rarely follows his own examples.
It's just that Concubine Haogui is very used to her, and she has never had enough to deal with it.
"How can you say that Concubine Haogui has a good life?" The palace maid of Xuanzhu Yuan was angry: "Concubine Haogui can have today, it is clear that it all depends on her extraordinary beauty, wisdom and iron-fisted means!" Before I came in to serve, my father said that Si Chenguo would not be a country, but there were few people in the previous dynasty who could fight against Concubine Haogui, and she took away a lot of people. β
Even the palace maids who serve in Xihua Garden are from a good background, and it is common to hear their fathers and brothers mention the court, especially Concubine Haogui, who is the "negative teaching material" of many young girls.
The father and brother told them to learn from Concubine Haogui's methods to entrap men, but not to be like her.
Empress Taishang is a model of a good woman.
It's a pity that he is childless and sick.
"That's right, does Chen Guiren have any skills?"
The gossiping palace maids brushed their eyes to the palace maids on duty in Dingfangchi.
It is the closest to Chen Guiren's Tingzhu Courtyard.
"Uh......"
The palace maid hesitated for a while: "I heard that Chen Guiren's shuttlecock kicks very well!" I can kick thirty in one breath. β
Others were stunned: "Chen Guiren is also fifty-six this year, right?" How good are the bones? β
"Wouldn't it be nice to not worry about everything? There was a doctor with a headache and brain fever, and he arrived immediately. If you think about it, Concubine Haogui is a capable person, Chen Guiren is not, she just depends on her fate. β
When the palace maid said something, the others nodded, and they all felt that this was the reason.
I couldn't help but be envious when I said it.
They don't want to have much ability, they just want to be prosperous in their lives, she occupies all the noble people, and the other concubines are still angry with the noble concubine in the palace, she followed to Xihua Garden to live, and she lived very comfortably.
The Emperor Taishang knows how to enjoy life, and he doesn't stay in Xihua Garden all year round, he often takes his family to travel around the mountains and rivers, and there is obviously no Chen Guiren in the accompanying list, so she can always think of a way to get into the car of Concubine Haogui.
