Chapter 16: The Empress is reprimanded
The lord of the first palace of Zhongcui Palace is a concubine, and Tong Zining lives in the west hall, although the palace is not very eye-catching, fortunately, the concubine is a good master, and she is not subject to cold eyes.
"The emperor has arrived!" The eunuch shouted.
Only listen to the sound of hurried steps and rings in the house.
Tong Zining wore a pink and purple silk skirt, and appeared in front of Huo Jiheng's eyes delicately.
"The concubine sees the emperor, may the emperor be blessed." Tong Ziling's voice was sweet and lingered in Huo Jiheng's ears.
"Get up, why did you fall asleep so quickly?" Huo Jiheng took Tong Ziling's hand and spoke softly.
Tong Zining obediently followed Huo Jiheng, and Yiyi said: "The concubine thought that if the brand was withdrawn, she would not go to bed, so she thought about going to bed early, but she didn't expect the emperor to come." β
Huo Jiheng hadn't met such a well-behaved and aura woman for a long time, and he couldn't help but feel pity in his heart, "Good and decent, why are you sick?" β
"Back to the emperor, the little master is-" The slave Caiyue looked indignant.
Ning Changzai's face sank, "Caiyue, when is it your turn to speak here!" Get out! β
Caiyue's blessed body with tears in her eyes, "The slave and maid retired." β
Huo Jiheng looked at the angry Tong Ziling and asked slowly, "What's going on?" β
Tong Zining smiled disguisedly, and changed the topic: "The concubine is fine, the emperor is thirsty, the concubine will pour you tea." β
As he spoke, he got up and went to get the kettle, but, for some reason, he twisted his eyebrows and almost fell to the ground.
Huo Jiheng grabbed Tong Zining, his face was slightly gloomy, "You tell me, what happened?" β
Seeing Tong Zining lowering her head and biting her lip silently, Huo Jiheng instructed another palace maid, "Call Caiyue to come in." β
Tong Zining was a little touched at this time, and hurriedly saluted Huo Jiheng and said, "The concubine said, the concubine said." β
Huo Jiheng looked at her quietly.
In the afternoon, the concubine went to the imperial garden, but the queen was also there. Originally, the concubine wanted to go to the queen to say goodbye, but she didn't know where to make the queen angry, and she knelt in the imperial garden until she came back. After that, I felt some discomfort in my knee, and I thought that this was the reason for the withdrawal of the brand. Tong Zining's tone was slightly sad.
Huo Jiheng then understood why Sheng Yi ordered him, the queen's anger was probably the original of her own reward for Tong Ziling.
"I'll see." As he spoke, Huo Jiheng bent down to help Tong Zining see the scars.
Tong Ziling gently tugged at the corner of Huo Jiheng's clothes, and said softly: "The emperor still don't look at it, it's okay, just wipe the medicine for a few days." β
Huo Jiheng covered Tong Zining's hand with a little distress, "You're not hypocritical." β
Tong Zining raised her face slightly, and said with a smile: "With the emperor's words, the concubine's body is no longer painful." If the emperor really feels that the concubine is wronged, then compensate the concubine......"
Seeing Tong Zining blinking a pair of peach blossom eyes and staring at him with affection, Huo Jiheng suddenly became interested, "Aren't you afraid that the queen will be dissatisfied with you again because of this?" β
Tong Zining sat on Huo Jiheng softly, and said leisurely: "The concubine only knows that entering the palace is to serve the emperor, as long as the emperor is happy, Ziling has nothing to fear." β
"Hahaha......" Huo Jiheng was relieved by Tong Zining's words, and burst into laughter.
"Then I'm really in charge of you!" Huo Jiheng doted Tong Zining's nose and said.
Sheng Yi stood outside the side hall, and sighed in his heart that this Ning Chang was psychologically strong, not only ignoring the queen's great god, but also making the emperor so happy, there were indeed two brushes.
On the second day, the palace spread all over the palace, and Zhong Cui Palace came to compete for favor again.
The queen is not angry in Jingren Palace.
"Smack!" The queen grabbed a cup and slammed it on the ground, and suddenly, splinters flew up.
"It's all against this palace!" The queen yelled angrily.
Ai Xiang approached the queen worriedly and persuaded: "Niangniang, you dissipate your anger, a small Changzai can't make such a big liver fire." β
The queen said angrily: "It is precisely because she is just a small permanent presence that she dares to provoke the palace like this, that the palace cannot tolerate her, otherwise, where is there a foothold in the palace in this harem!" β
Ai Xiang opened her mouth, but sighed after all.
"What about the emperor?" The queen asked with a cold face.
Ai Xiang slurped: "Your Majesty, this will-this-"
The queen stared and asked, "Where is it?" β
Ai Xiang hurriedly lowered her head, "I'm always there." β
"Heβ" The Queen's eyes were red and she froze in place.
A sharp voice suddenly came from outside the door: "You are still the queen of the middle palace!" β
The queen reacted instantly, and hurriedly walked to the door to greet Ai Xiang with the support of Ai Xiang, "Auntie." β
The queen mother looked at her niece's defeat and was very dissatisfied, walked past the queen, and sat down directly.
"Mourning family, you don't have to be angry here, just move to Shoukang Palace and calm down!" The queen mother's most disliked thing is to babble, and the irritability without means is asking for trouble.
The queen was beaten by the queen mother for a few words, and her mood calmed down, "Yiyi knows her mistake." β
The Queen Mother held her forehead, slowed down her tone, and said earnestly: "Isn't he just a pampered person." Are you so angry that you don't hesitate to surrender your identity to fight her? β
The queen obviously felt that she had gone too far, and said weakly: "If it weren't for Tong Zining provoking the palace, why would the palace be embarrassed for her......"
"This can't help but make it seem that you are not measurable, and let the palaces see the joke! It's stupid! The Queen Mother reprimanded sharply.
The queen hurriedly knelt down in a panic, and said aggrievedly: "Auntie, the emperor even sent back the bird's nest that Yao Yi sent into Qianhui Palace intact, Yao Yi was also in a hurry to act like this, you must save Ji Yi, if this continues, it is the back of the middle palace, which is in danger." β
The Queen Mother hated that iron could not become steel, and sighed, "You, you, what do you want to mourn the family......"
The queen knelt down.
The Queen Mother really has nothing to do with her, this niece is not good at greeting, she doesn't like to please, she wants to teach with the resources of the mother of the country since she was a child, and keeps in mind to follow the principle of convincing people with reason. I thought that after entering the palace, I would be able to adapt to the environment and learn to integrate it, but I never thought that her will would be like this, and it would not be easy to become it.
However, although the emperor did not favor the queen, he gave her enough face and power, and believed in her character and practices, so the queen mother did not force Yaoyi to learn those delicate states.
Now it seems that it has reached the point of burning her eyebrows, and if the queen does not change, it will be a matter of time before she is rejected by the emperor.
"The mourning family once told you that if you want to change the emperor's attitude towards you, you need to learn......" The queen mother looked at the queen fixedly and said slowly.
The queen's brows jumped, and a moment of sadness floated in her eyes, she was the queen of a country, and she thought that she had worked hard to balance the trivial matters of the harem for the emperor, thinking that she had always been able to get the emperor's decent treatment......
"What does the emperor meanβ" The queen said quietly.
The Queen Mother's heart moved, this child, after all, didn't understand her hard work, but as long as she Suo's position can be stabilized, everything doesn't seem to matter.
"Yesterday, the mourning family heard that the emperor was not afraid of danger in order to save Shengyi, and he could let the emperor do this, either because he wanted to be a concubine, or because he was trusted and satisfied by the emperor, you may be able to learn how to grasp the emperor's mind......"
