Chapter Seventy-Six: I'm Going to Imitate a Fool?
After instructing a circle of people, Li Yan went towards the Heart Cultivation Palace.
Being rejected by the queen, he naturally couldn't say it, so he pretended that nothing had happened, and he was still wearing court clothes, and swaggered back to the Palace of Raising Hearts.
"Look at it, look at it, how is Hongu's face today?"
Around the corner, Concubine Jing was squatting there nervously, slapping her face constantly, and asking for the opinion of the palace maid on the side.
Xiangmei couldn't help but smile: "Niangniang is naturally the most beautiful person in the palace, and when the emperor sees Niangniang, he will definitely be inseparable from his eyes." ”
"That's good! It took a lot of thought to save the palace. Concubine Jing said proudly.
Hearing footsteps getting closer, she quickly stood up, straightened the hem of her clothes, and then walked out of the corner.
"The flowers in this garden are so fragrant today. Xiangmei, you can pick some back later, and put it in the jade vase in the main palace. Concubine Jing held her throat and spoke softly and weakly.
Xiangmei said yes, and was about to pick flowers, but saw the shadow of a purple-gold robe.
"See the emperor!" Xiangmei hurriedly knelt on the ground.
At this time, Concubine Jing hurriedly ran over and knelt on the ground to greet Li Yan.
"I've seen the emperor, how can the emperor have the heart to come to the imperial garden today?" Concubine Jing stood up and walked behind Li Yan.
Originally, it was annoying to be rejected by Fu Yao, but now there is an even more annoying person, and the anger in Li Yan's heart ignited with a small flame.
"What are you doing here?" He asked coldly.
Concubine Jing didn't seem to be aware of Li Yan's emotions, and thought that this was Li Yan's concern for herself.
The concubine heard that the flowers in the imperial garden were blooming more and more beautifully, so she brought the palace maid over to pick some flowers so that they could be put in a vase. If you like it, Your Majesty, the concubines will send the vase to your Heart Nourishing Palace later. Concubine Jing deliberately spoke softly and weakly, and her voice was almost useless at the moment.
Li Yan glanced at Xiangmei, who was kneeling on the ground and hadn't gotten up yet.
Xiangmei is also holding a few freshly picked flowers in her hands, which look delicate and delicate.
"These flowers are all precious varieties that have been moved from different places by our craftsmen. Did I let you pick it? Li Yan snorted coldly, "Since you like it so much now, you are not allowed to leave without my instructions to pick flowers here." ”
This is so different from what I imagined, shouldn't Li Yan say that she is as pitiful as a flower and bring her back to the Palace of Heart Cultivation?
Why didn't Li Yan follow the routine!
Concubine Jing was simply dumbfounded, and could only watch as Li Yan threw up her sleeves and left behind her, followed by a group of eunuchs.
She always felt that this group of eunuchs was now mocking her, saying that she failed to seduce the emperor, and was left by the emperor in the imperial garden to see the flowers.
After everyone left, Concubine Jing was so angry that she threw the flowers in Xiangmei's hand directly on the ground, and then stepped on them fiercely with embroidered shoes.
"A lot of expensive varieties! Where can it be expensive? Can there be a precious shrine? This palace is the only concubine in the world! These flowers, are these flowers worthy of Hongu? Concubine Jing was so angry that she kept stepping on the flowers and almost slipped with one foot.
Xiangmei hurriedly helped Concubine Jing.
If Concubine Jing falls down in the imperial garden, I'm afraid the rumors will be even more prevalent, and there will be anything to say at that time.
Concubine Jing now has an average reputation in the palace, and there are many people who want to belittle Concubine Jing.
is to let them see that there is a chance to fall into the well now, I am afraid that they will rush over to mock Concubine Jing and see Concubine Jing's jokes.
"Niangniang, let's change the way, if you are always squatting in the imperial garden, the emperor is inevitably too deliberate, not to mention that the emperor doesn't seem to like you in the imperial garden now." Xiangmei said a little tactfully.
In fact, she really wanted to say that the emperor doesn't seem to like Concubine Jing very much now.
But thinking about it, she still didn't say it, after all, if she said it, I'm afraid she would be the one who was scolded.
"Oh, what do you think?" Concubine Jing's voice was a little unhappy.
She finally came up with such an excuse to wait here to meet Li Yan, but she didn't expect that it was different from what she imagined.
Obviously, Fu Yao is in the imperial garden, and she can use all kinds of means to catch up with Li Yan, why can't she?
She is not ugly, and she is also a first-class woman outside the palace.
Back then, when she was in the boudoir, there were many men in the capital who wanted to marry her.
At that time, Concubine Jing could be said to be picky and selective about these men, and she couldn't look at any of them, so she looked at them first, she was about to reach the age of getting married, and she hadn't found a man who matched her eyes.
Later, I listened to the words of the Queen Mother and married into the palace, thinking that with the support of the Queen Mother, I could become the queen, but I didn't expect that it was that fool who became the queen!
Now that she has entered the palace, she has become the one who picks the leftovers.
"The maid thinks maybe the emperor doesn't like to eat this set, maybe the emperor likes the type of queen mother?" Xiangmei thought about it and came up with a bad idea.
Concubine Jing's eyes rolled, and she felt that what Xiangmei said seemed to be very reasonable.
There are a total of four concubines in the palace, and only Fu Yao is favored.
Although she was also pampered for a while, she was also pampered. It's just that time is running out.
But Concubine Jing understood that it was probably for the sake of the Queen Mother that she gave herself a little reward.
"You mean, I might be able to get along with the emperor in the same way as the queen, but I can't learn to be a fool?" Concubine Jing's brows were almost clustered.
Learning to be a fool is simply unheard of, unseen.
She is very jealous that Fu Miao can be favored by Li Yao, but if she is allowed to pretend to be a fool, wouldn't she admit that she is even more unfavored than Fu Yao, a fool?
If this spreads outside the palace, she may not be able to bear the jokes of her close friends in the past.
Xiangmei looked at her mother with some hatred: "Niangniang, where do you want to go?" If the emperor really likes the queen, why should he let the queen drink the soup to avoid children? ”
Shunzi soup ......
At the mention of this, Concubine Jing remembered, yes, if Li Yan really likes Fu Yao, why do you want to drink the soup of avoiding children?
The soup was sent by Mama Zhang, who was next to the Queen Mother, and there would never be any mistakes, but Li Yan not only stopped it, but also fed it to the queen.
"The emperor did this, because he was afraid that the queen would give birth to a fool. There are no rumors among the people that if the mother is a crazy and stupid person, the child she gives birth to will also be crazy and stupid, so the emperor must not like fools. Xiangmei calmly analyzed.
Her analysis was really powerful, and the more Concubine Jing listened to it, the more she felt that it was what she said.
"If you don't like her stupid, you like her appearance?"
Concubine Jing's brows furrowed, and then she unfolded: "Xiangmei, Xiangmei, you really have some ability." You mentioned it to the palace, what the emperor likes is the queen's bewitching appearance. Isn't it just a little rouge gouache? Who wouldn't? ”
