Chapter 219. afterworld
When it came to the Lantern Festival, everyone gathered in Changchun Palace to greet the queen.
"The red oranges newly paid tribute by Jiangnan, this palace tasted it, and I think it's not bad, everyone tastes it." The queen smiled and asked Luomei and hairpin to distribute the red oranges to everyone, everyone got up and thanked her, she raised her hand and said with a smile after the salute, "We are all old people in the palace, we know each other well, and now that we have entered the palace, the rules of the palace must be observed, but the feelings of the past years cannot be forgotten, no matter how many newcomers come in in the future, we have to be one heart." ”
"The concubines obey the teachings of the queen."
Hui Guifei smiled gently, dressed exquisitely, wearing embroidered clothes full of butterflies and flying flowers, wearing gold jewelry inlaid with chiseled gold filigree, and even the hand stove in her hand was also embedded with a huge ruby, full of luxury, she raised her eyes and smiled to compliment the queen: "No matter what good things you get, the queen thinks about us sisters, this is the bearing that the master should have, and the concubines worship." ”
"You and Concubine Jia have always been good, she is the best at talking, but now it seems that your mouth is sweeter." The queen disappreciatively played with her, the smile on her face did not diminish in the slightest, and quietly changed the topic, "Why didn't Hai Chang come today?" ”
"Early this morning, Aunt Cardamom from Cining Palace came to spread the word, saying that the Queen Mother wanted to see Hai Chang there, and Hai Chang was there and hurried away." Hui Guifei replied, muttering a little strangely, "I don't know what it's for, it seems to be in a hurry." ”
"Hai Chang didn't have much friendship with the Queen Mother before, what did she ask her to do?" Jia Concubine seemed to be very curious, and accosted her on the side, her beautiful eyes turned around, and she fell on Concubine Xian on the opposite side with bad intentions, "If you talk about friendship, it should be Concubine Xian, right, I heard that Sister Concubine Xian used to enter the palace often, why don't you talk to us?" ”
Concubine Xian peeled the red orange slowly, and didn't even raise her eyelids: "The queen mother lives in a simple place, and she hasn't even seen her face a few times when she entered the palace when she was young, how can you make friends?" Jia Concubine, don't talk nonsense, let others listen to it and think that the palace is faceless and skinless to cling to the queen mother. She glanced at Jia Concubine at the end of her eyes, and let out a soft snort from her nose.
Jia Concubine gritted her teeth slightly, but also closed her mouth.
Fortunately, there was a pure concubine playing a round on the side, so it was not too cold, but the queen had no thoughts, she was as puzzled and curious as Concubine Hui Guifei and Jia Concubine, what did the queen mother do in the past when she called Hai Chang?
And at this moment, Hai Chang is also confused, on the way to Cining Palace, she thought of countless possibilities, but she didn't expect that the queen mother was looking for her to come over to arrange flowers, at first I thought it was a beating, but from beginning to end the queen mother just smiled and said something homely to her, it was really confusing: "The concubine is stupid, I don't know why the queen mother summoned the concubine today?" ”
"It's nothing, I just want to see you." An Lingrong looked at the finished product in front of him, took the scissors and pruned it a few times, turned his head and instructed the dill, "Today's flowers are well arranged, let people move to Shoukang Palace, a while ago mourning the family in the past, look at it is full of gold, silver and porcelain, there is no fresh life, just send it to add some joy to my sister." ”
Hai Changzai stood under the couch with some restraint, watching Dill beckon people to move all the things on the table, and even the people who served him withdrew one by one, and his heart was drumming.
"Sit down." An Lingrong took a sip of tea slowly, and smiled and asked Hai Changzai to sit opposite him, "I heard that you were the first to enter the Diving Mansion, why did you only seal a positive six products Chang Zai, do you have any complaints in your heart?" ”
"The concubines know that their virtues are lacking, and they dare not occupy a high position, and they are satisfied with the position they always have, and they dare not have any complaints." The sea often returns in a proper manner.
"The concubines from the Qiandi said that there were not many or too little, and now they all have their own seals, what do you think of the emperor's proportions?" An Lingrong smiled and looked at Hai Changzai, and when she saw that she didn't dare to speak, she chuckled, "I only tell the mourning family in private, and don't let others know." ”
Hai Changzai glanced at An Lingrong with some embarrassment, and hesitated for a while before saying: "It is needless to say that the queen's identity is noble, and the concubine and the concubine have some doorways. ”
An Lingrong leaned lazily on the soft pillow, nodded quietly, and said noncommittal: "Well, go on." ”
"Jia Concubine Niangniang is beautiful and moving, she has always been favored, it is expected that she will be crowned the lord of Weiyang Palace, and the pure concubine Niangniang treats people leniently, Zhong Cui Palace is now inhabited by Chen Gui and Bai Guiren, and she is the most convincing to the public." Hai Changzai continued, "As for Chen Guiren and Bai Guiren, they are just routine promotions, and they have no intention. ”
An Lingrong nodded silently, and suddenly asked, "So, what about Concubine Zhe?" ”
Hai Changzai's body shook slightly, his lowered eyes instantly contracted, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead: "Concubine Zhe......"
"Why did Concubine Zhe get the title of concubine? Why did he die unexpectedly? An Lingrong looked straight at Hai Chang Zai, and the invisible oppression was coming, "Hai Chang is here, you know the emperor very well, and you should be very clear about the cause and process of this matter, why don't you answer questions for the mourning family?" ”
Hai Changzai pursed the corners of his mouth tightly, raised his eyes and looked at An Lingrong: "The concubine doesn't understand what the queen mother said. ”
An Lingrong stared at Hai Changzai's eyes for a long time, and then smiled: "That's right, your eyes shouldn't be vague and uncertain, so scorching as the sun is worthy of your bright eyes." She sat up straight, restrained her momentum, and still smiled as gently as the warm sun, "Okay, let's talk about it here today, the mourning family likes you very much, and I will often come to Cining Palace to sit in the future." ”
Hai Chang was in a cold sweat, and his hands under his sleeves were clenched into fists.
She has always been weak and wooden in front of people, and only the emperor and queen have seen her true face, and she is in control of the initiative, but the queen mother used a sentence lightly to make her reveal her true nature, and the layers of foreshadowing are just for the temptation of this sentence, such scheming is really powerful.
"Dill, send the sea to Chang back." An Lingrong shouted outside, and then thought about it for a while, and said, "Go and pass on the will of the mourning family, Jin Feng Xianfu Gonghai is often a nobleman, and he will be given the title of pleasure." ”
Hai Changzai got up and knelt down with a panicked face: "Queen Mother, concubine ......"
"Pleasure from the heart, this word suits you very well." An Lingrong glanced meaningfully at Hai Chang, and then said no more.
Hai Chang left Cining Palace, only to feel cold all over her body, this is the first time she has missed, and she has no power to fight back, from the overlook and control of the high-ranking person, even the emperor has never let her feel like this.
"Why did the Queen Mother make you a nobleman? What did you tell her today? As soon as the emperor heard the news, he rushed to Xianfu Palace and went straight to the Phixiang Palace, where Yu Guiren was, "She also gave you the title of Yu, it seems that you coaxed her old man to be very happy." ”
Looking at the emperor's gloomy face, Yu Guiren laughed mockingly, and tilted his eyes on the couch to look at him: "The emperor doesn't really think that concubines are rare this nobleman, right?" She took a sip of tea and frowned with some disgust, "What kind of concubine are you sealing, so stingy, and you don't know how to take some good tea." ”
The emperor ignored her complaints, and only stared at her: "Concubine Zhe, you didn't talk nonsense to the queen mother, did you?" ”
"The concubine spares her life, so naturally she will not violate the promise of the day." Yu Guiren said slowly, with a faint sarcasm in his voice, "And everyone knows that Concubine Zhe is the emperor's most beloved person, that is, the concubine said it, and the queen mother is afraid and will not believe it." ”
The emperor snorted heavily, shook his sleeves and got up to leave, and went to the main hall where Concubine Hui was located.
When the emperor walked away, Yu Guigui let the personal palace maid Cherry close the door, and then walked into the dormitory alone, and took out the booklet hidden in the secret compartment at the bedside, which was densely written with mosquitoes and flies in small characters, carefully identified, the most appeared is the word "Qianlong", and the first line reads "Emperor Yongzheng died in August 23 of the thirteenth year, the fourth son of the emperor Hongli ascended the throne and called the emperor, and changed the name of the country to Qianlong the following year".
This is the treasure of Concubine Zhe's life.
Concubine Fucha, claiming to be from the future, told the emperor on the first day of entering the palace that he would be the next monarch of the Qing Dynasty, and also babbled a lot of things, the emperor from the beginning of the hesitation to the later belief, step by step close to her, until she was pregnant with her eldest son Yonghuang did not realize the bad thing - at that time, the emperor had not yet married, the wife had not passed the door, but the concubine had a child first, and it was also the concubine sent by the wife's own family to try marriage, which was simply a great shame for the Fucha family, but the emperor still covered up this matter for her.
And Yu Guiren found out this secret when Concubine Zhe was pregnant with her second child, she promised the queen to get rid of Concubine Zhe, in line with the idea of knowing herself and knowing that she would win all battles, that night, she went to Jade Xuan where Concubine Zhe lived......
"When did you give the king what you had in your hands?"
"I said, I want to be a queen, as long as I am made a queen, I will naturally give what the prince wants with both hands."
"Don't take an inch!"
"Who's going to get the inch? My child, without saying a word, I will give it to Fucha Shuyao's slut to raise, I am Yonghuang's biological mother! He's only been three months, and you're separating our mother and son, and you want me to give that thing to you? Dream on you! ”
“…… Are you lying to the king? You don't have any so-called posterity history books in your hands. ”
"Hmph, look at it, there is still half a year, your emperor Ama is about to die, August 23, the prince may wish to verify it."
……
As it turned out, Concubine Zhe was indeed right.
But she was so stupid that she trampled on the emperor's bottom line again and again, until two days before entering the palace, when she was dissatisfied that she was only condescending to the position of concubine and made a big fuss, the emperor's desire to kill her finally reached its peak.
That's right, Concubine Zhe's death was single-handedly facilitated by the emperor.
That's the general tone, and the previous content will be modified a little bit more accordingly
