Chapter 160. Jin Feng
"Hey! Yo! Hey-yo-"
The dragon boat sent together, broke the water and walked, hundreds of people on the boat sent the trumpet together, the sound was deafening, the back lake was hot, the people watching the race on the shore were also excited, followed by shouting, for a while, boiling back to the sky, very lively.
There was no banquet in the Kaiyuan Pavilion, there was no singing and dancing, some of the concubines were crowded in front of the porch under the pavilion, and some went up to the second floor to overlook, their heartbeats followed by the sound of the drum again and again, and they tightened the Jinpa in their hands, for fear that their own team would fall behind.
After the first round, there were only six people left, including Concubine Qi, Concubine Jing, Concubine Min, Xin Guiren, Jin Guiren and Sun Xu, Kang Changzai watched his team run seventh in a hurry, and his eyes were red with anger.
"The concubine felt nervous when she looked at it, and her palms were sweaty." An Lingrong let out a long breath and spread out his palm to show the emperor.
"There has never been such an event in the palace, and it is a novelty to come back and forth once in a while." The emperor seemed to be in a good mood, and raised his hand to let Su Peisheng hurry up to start the second round.
After the break, the second round began in full swing.
The six teams are full of energy, the gongs and drums sounded, and the dragon boats rushed out like flying arrows, the first to bear the brunt was the No. 5 boat, which was also the ship of Concubine Qi, which was far ahead in the first round, and now it was even more unbeatable, Concubine Qi saw it in her eyes, and her heart was hot.
Soon, however, the fifth ship was weak, and its speed gradually slowed down, not to mention, even the rhythm was out of order, but two breaths were overtaken by the side.
"Hey, this! This ......" Concubine Qi's face turned red, her excited heart was suddenly splashed with a basin of cold water, and she just shouted and closed her mouth, seeing that the queen looked unhappy, she reluctantly pulled the corners of her mouth, and returned to her seat to eat refreshments, still unwilling in her heart.
Concubine Jing smiled and talked to Concubine Duan, and took the time to say a few words to Concubine Qi, so as not to embarrass her.
The drums became more and more intense, and another gong sounded, and the guards on the shore watched a dragon boat with golden bells rushing across the red line, their eyes glanced at the numbers on the hull, and immediately waved their flags and shouted: "It's the ninth boat, the ninth boat-"
The voice came from afar, and everyone looked at each other in a daze, and finally their eyes fell on Jin Guiren.
Jin Guiren held the brand and burst into tears with excitement.
The queen showed a satisfied smile and said slowly: "Your Majesty, the noble Jin has been keeping to himself during this time, and he has been thinking about it, and he won the jackpot today, and the emperor can't break his word." ”
"The queen has always been virtuous, and everyone must take care of her." The emperor glanced at the queen, but saw that the smile on her face was flawless, and Fang Cai's interest was completely lost, and the corners of his mouth were tightly pursed.
If it is Xin Guiren or Sun who agrees to be promoted to the first level, it will be harmless, Jin Guiren is a member of the Tong family, and the queen is so ignorant.
But the gentleman said that the horse is difficult to chase. In the end, the emperor still gave Jin Guiren a concubine with a cold face.
An Lingrong looked at Concubine Jin being surrounded by everyone, almost crying with joy, and couldn't stop feeling pity in her heart.
Although it is said that she has sealed the concubine, Concubine Jin has lost too much in this game. Since the emperor left Concubine Jin alive at the beginning, it means that he still has care for the Tong family, Concubine Jin has stayed up, and when her seniority is older, maybe the emperor will remember the good of the Tong family one day, and she will give Concubine Jin three points of affection, but now, she has devoted herself to the queen, and the queen is almost semi-forced to let the emperor give her a concubine, that is, she has a heart of favor, and now it has been exhausted.
In the future, if Concubine Jin wants to live well in the palace, she can only firmly hug the queen's thigh, and she can't resist at all.
An Lingrong thought about it in his heart, his eyes flashed slightly, it seemed that Yonghe Palace also had to install people.
The summer cicada has been dormant for several years, but its life is only a few short months, and in the sound of cicadas one after another, summer has passed.
This summer seems to be exceptionally hot, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, but the heat still lingers.
An Lingrong became more and more lazy to go out, hiding in Weiyang Palace all day long, and the people in the Internal Affairs Office were used to seeing each other, so they still sent ice over every day.
I can't be idle, I think about running out all day long, I went to the Old Summer Palace, and when I came back, I couldn't control my temperament more and more, plus I just finished my birthday, and I was full of thoughts about playing in the past two days, and Mama Qin was exhausted.
But the emperor spoiled her very much, and always said: "It's rare to have such a lively princess in the palace, don't always detain her, just play if you like, can't I afford to raise a princess?" ”
An Lingrong persuaded her several times, but the father and daughter didn't listen, so they could only go with her.
"Honghao, it's time to eat." An Lingrong walked to the couch with a bowl of rice cereal, and looked at the seventh elder brother sitting there upright looking at the sky in a daze, he didn't feel a little funny, and reached out to hug him, "You and your sister are really reversed, you are so quiet, your sister is so active, how can there be no similarity at all?" ”
"Niangniang, the eyebrows and eyes of the seventh elder brother and the princess are very similar, but the princess always smiles, smart and vivid like the mother, but the seventh elder brother, he is not angry and arrogant at a young age, and he is calm and majestic more like the emperor." Dill said with a smile on the side.
"Hot." The seventh elder brother nullified his mouth and spit out a word like gold.
An Lingrong hurriedly blew it, looked at the seventh elder brother helplessly, raised his head and snorted dill: "He has just turned one year old, so he is not angry and arrogant, talking nonsense." ”
Dill pursed her lips and snickered, but did not answer.
Cardamom hurriedly walked in and stood in front of An Lingrong: "Niangniang, the Ye girl who the emperor sealed Baijun Garden has now entered the palace as a promise." ”
An Lingrong's hand moved slightly, and then nodded casually: "Got it." After thinking about it, she tasted a little wrong again, "Has there been any movement on Concubine Jin's side in the past few days?" ”
"Not really." Cardamom shook her head, "Although she is a concubine, her application is still the same as before, she is a nobleman's share, and the emperor has not summoned her, she is in a hurry, and she runs to Jingren Palace three times a day, and she can't wait to live in the queen's palace." ”
An Lingrong's eyes rolled, and he couldn't help laughing.
The emperor is slapping the queen in the face.
At that time, the queen was enjoying fish with Concubine Qi in the queen mother's palace, and she didn't know about it, and when she heard the queen mother ask if the newlyweds had entered the palace, they were still at a loss: "What newcomer?" Why don't the concubines know? ”
"The emperor thinks that you are virtuous and good-natured, and you only approve and have no opposition, so anyone dares to pull you into the palace." The Queen Mother looked back at the queen and reprimanded her for dereliction of duty.
The queen lowered her face a little embarrassed, and reacted in hindsight, this is the emperor expressing her dissatisfaction with fighting for the concubine position for Concubine Jin, and for a while, her heart was mixed. The emperor never did this before, why is he not tolerant of her now?
"Don't be angry, the Queen Mother, it's just that her status is low." Concubine Qi smiled on the side, "It's just like a subordinate like Miaoyin's lady in the past, no matter how bad it is, it's just like the mother of the eighth master in the past, it's just a cheap slave of Xin's library." ”
The Queen Mother was even more angry when she heard this: "Xin Zheku's cheap slave is also a descendant of an official slave, and the emperor picked it this time, but he is a versatile girl, a girl who tames horses in Baijun Garden in the Old Summer Palace." ”
Concubine Qi hurriedly suppressed her smile, and showed a surprised expression with the queen.
"At this time, people have already entered the palace." Su Peisheng cautiously said, "In order to not be able to enter the palace in the Old Summer Palace, the emperor has been thinking about it day and night since he came back from the Old Summer Palace, and he couldn't stop worrying, so he made a decree early this morning and made a promise to stay in the palace." ”
The palace maid is a slave, and the horse trainer is an inferior person who is even lower than the palace maid and is in the company of animals, so that the person actually entered the palace and became a concubine, and she also became a promise.
The queen only felt that the emperor's slap was really loud.
"Have you decided where to stay?" The Queen Mother asked with a suppressed anger.
"Not yet, but Ye promised to say it himself, saying that he likes to live in a quiet place with few people." Su Peisheng hung his head and replied.
The Queen Mother sneered: "Listen, as soon as you enter the palace, you know that you want this and that." Fu asked again, "Did the emperor say where it was for her?" ”
"The Internal Affairs Office has to wait two days to clean the palace room, and the emperor said that he should first live in the side hall of the Yangxin Palace." Su Peisheng said stubbornly.
As soon as these words came out, the queen's face immediately changed.
The Queen Mother lowered her face even more: "How can that happen?" She breathed a sigh of relief, "Go and tell the emperor that behind the Shoukang Palace, the Chunxi Palace where the original concubine lived is still empty, and immediately ask someone to clean it up for her to live." She wants to be quiet, the most quiet in the mourning palace, so let her live under the nose of the mourning family, and she is not afraid of what tricks she will come up with. ”
"The Chunxi Palace is for her to live, isn't that too much to lift her." Concubine Qi muttered quietly.
The queen had a cold face and gritted her teeth: "Naturally not, like the current situation, I'm afraid that there will still be Jin Feng." ”
In autumn, all the flowers are killed, and Ye Lanyi is outstanding.
"The day before yesterday, Jin Feng was sealed at noon, and the dinner was served, and he was sent to the Heart Cultivation Palace in the evening. Concubine Min came to An Lingrong with a jar of vinegar that had been overturned, "The concubine has never seen the emperor like this, even when the noble man was still there, the emperor was not like this." ”
"The concubine took a look from a distance yesterday, Ye promised to give birth to not beautiful, I happened to meet Concubine Jing on the road, there were no rules at all, and I also lost Concubine Jing Niangniang's good temper, so I don't blame it." The jade nobleman also said on the side.
Ye Lanyi is not a beauty in the traditional sense, she comes from a foreign country, her skin is tanned to wheat, her facial features are deep and three-dimensional, full of strong aggression, she is vigorous and powerful, and the concubines in the palace who pursue the beauty of weak willows and wind are completely different.
In An Lingrong's opinion, Ye Lanyi is very beautiful, so beautiful that she is unrestrained, the emperor takes a fancy to her, even if she has the meaning of being angry, but more, she is really interested in her - conquering a woman is much more interesting than capturing a woman.
"The grace in the palace has always been thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, yesterday it was you, today it is her, but it's just ordinary, you don't have to worry about it, just do your part." An Lingrong comforted Concubine Min and the Yu nobles, changed the topic and said, "Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, there are many things in the previous dynasty, the emperor has stopped the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, and the palace is planning to make some moon cakes, since you are here, why don't you stay and help?" ”
Concubine Min and Yu Guiren looked at each other with some regret: "Yes." ”
Time flies.
Ye Lanyi knew that she was suddenly promoted to the palace and won the holy favor alone, and many people in the palace couldn't get used to her, but she didn't care, the only thing she cared about was that the already slim chance was now gone.
This day is the Double Ninth Festival, Ye Lanyi climbed high to look, and everywhere he looked, in addition to the red wall, it was still a red wall.
"Ye promised."
A familiar voice came from behind her, Ye Lanyi shook slightly, turned around, looked at the King of Guojun, who she hadn't seen for a long time, her heart was sour, she bowed down and saluted: "Seventeen masters, you are here." ”
"I haven't seen you for a long time, and you've already agreed." King Guojun slowly stepped forward and took two steps and sighed.
Ye Lanyi saw that he was polite and detached, and he was not as intimate as before, and couldn't help but be full of sadness: "No one asked me if I wanted to, so I entered the palace and agreed again." Just two months ago, when she met King Guojun in the palace, he would smile and laugh with her, praise her for being beautiful in green clothes, and promised to go to the Old Summer Palace to see her train horses, but in a blink of an eye, there was nothing.
Let me tell you first, Rong'er will enter a low period from tomorrow (ready to be scolded.jpg)
