Saint Sonong verse 123
……
The harem soon knew about Concubine Ling's cane to blame Chen Changzai, and the next day's greeting, someone brought up the matter, and the words were nothing more than Concubine Ling's methods were too vicious, and Jiang Changzai starved to death at the beginning, and now he has applied a cane to Chen Changzai fifty, and others listened to it, and they couldn't help but be stunned.
In the harem, except for the queen, other concubines do not have the right to punish the concubines who are lower, who makes Concubine Ling favored and is assisting the queen to preside over the six palaces, this idea of the rule is also ignored. The queen smiled when she heard this, but she didn't say anything, and the queen didn't want to punish her, so how could those concubines below dare to say more than half a word.
After an autumn rain passed the day before yesterday, Wanfu suffered from the wind cold. The person was sick, and the queen didn't give her the trivia of the draft.
Wanfu's illness was at the beginning of next month, and the show girls entered the palace and each was given a concubine. Among the people who heard about the new canonization, the most favored was the daughter of the head of the Hanlin Academy, Xiao Deyin.
At the beginning of November, Wanfu recovered from the cold and took the honor guard to Kunning Palace to greet her. Stepping into the inner hall with the curtains, I saw many unfamiliar faces sitting in the hall.
All of them have vermilion lips and powdered faces, delicate and beautiful, so they are not pitiful.
Chapter 102
Wanfu contracted the wind chill and did not participate in the small election at the end of winter, but she did not miss the wind outside.
Most of the emperors really don't have the intention of drafting, and there are no more than seven show girls who are selected to enter the palace. These seven people are top-notch in appearance and bearing. Among them, the most favored is the newly sealed nobleman, Xiao Deyin.
Originally, Xiao Deyin entered the palace and was awarded the position of a six-grade beauty, but when he heard that he was sleeping that night, he didn't know what flattering words he said, which made the emperor happy, and the next day he was summoned to canonize the position of a five-grade nobleman.
Wanfu swept lightly on everyone's faces and sat down on the concubine seat next to the main seat. Concubine Zhuang didn't go to Kunning Palace to say hello, only she could sit on this son.
She sat down, as if she had just remembered, and said casually, "My sisters are all newcomers, so don't be restrained, sit down." ”
Only when others heard her speak did they dare to sit down. They couldn't help but secretly look at the high-ranking concubines above, and when they saw the woman's face clearly, their breath stagnated. Concubine Ling Niangniang is indeed as rumored, captivating the country and the city, very delicate, like a flower, sitting there, lining everyone else into green leaves.
As soon as they entered the palace, they heard the name of this Concubine Ling, and the rumors were not good, saying that although Concubine Ling was beautiful, she was vicious and femme fatale. first starved to death his sister-in-law in the cold palace, and then dared to scold the harem concubines without any mercy. With such a vicious method, this concubine is deeply favored, and she has a little prince under her knees, and no one in the harem dares to do anything to her.
Everyone looked at each other, secretive, and they were all quite afraid of this concubine.
Wen Xiurong looked at the people who were thinking about it, took a sip of tea casually, and sneered in his heart, everyone else knew that Sister Ling was infamous and favored, but no one thought deeply about why those people had today's evil consequences.
She gathered her mind and smiled softly, "Sister Ling's body is so good?" It's not an important person, why don't Sister Ling take care of it in the palace. ”
Wanfu's eyes blinked, and she understood the meaning of Wen Xiurong, and she naturally saw that the new concubine was afraid of her, and it was better to be afraid than to look down on her, so as not to enter the palace to trouble her.
"Today is a good day for my sister to enter the palace to say hello, and if I don't show up, wouldn't it be rude?"
Wen Xiurong pursed her lips and smiled, but the face of the new concubine who entered the palace was not good-looking, she stood up and saluted, "Concubine Xie Ling is worried." ”
The drama in the main hall soon reached the ears of the queen, and the queen pulled her lip line in the makeup mirror, "The new concubine entering the palace is lively." ”
She helped the comb willow to stand up, suddenly thought of something, and said with a smile, "This palace heard that Xiao Guiren likes Lamei, so I ordered to send it to the Internal Affairs Office every day, and I went to bed when I first entered the palace, so as to add more joy to her." ”
Comb Liu glanced at the mother's face, and lowered her head in response.
……
Imperial
Wanfu wrapped in a fox cloak, stood under the plum tree, stretched out her bare hand, broke off a red plum, and the green and warm jade bracelet on her wrist made the jade hand more and more delicate and lovely.
She inserted the plum blossom // into the vase, and asked Qiandai to fold the petals and go back to bring them to Fu'er.
Wen Xiurong walked beside her and looked at her for a long time before he hesitated to speak, "Sister Ling, has it always been like this?" ”
has always been angry with the emperor like this, quiet in the palace, no one dares to bully, but he is not favored. She didn't know what the gap was between the emperor and Concubine Ling, but the emperor didn't summon Sister Ling to sleep for a few days, and even if she didn't have a look, she should feel that something was wrong.
Wanfu paused and shook her head, "Naturally not. ”
Her Fu'er is still so young, if she doesn't get the favor of the saint, there will be more princes in the harem in the future, what should she do?
She claimed that she was ill for many days and did not move, thinking about how she could completely dispel the emperor's doubts, make the emperor believe in her, and stop holding on to the king of northern Henan. However, even if she is coquettish and obedient to please the emperor again this time, she will still provoke the anger of the saint next time, and over time, there will be more estrangement, and the emperor will gradually get bored, and those favors for her will disappear with it.
Wanfu didn't say much, this sentence was enough to be gentle and reassuring. She believed in her instincts, and the emperor's affection for Concubine Ling was far more than that, and the woman in front of her would never stop at today's status.
The two broke a few red plums and prepared to go back to the palace separately. As soon as I went around a corridor, I saw that in the long pavilion not far away, a woman was dressed in a red dress, her figure was colorful, her every move, her eyes were flowing, and she was full of style.
Wan Fu narrowed her eyes as she looked at the woman. On the day of the election, Wanfu was lazy in the Qianyun Palace, and did not pass, but Wen Xiurong was clear about the seven people who entered the palace, and she reminded in her ear, "This is the young daughter of the Yuzhou County Command, Knowles." ”
In the narrow land of Yuzhou, how could the county magistrate raise such a beautiful woman, who not only understands the wind and snow, but can also sing and dance, and he has been taught since childhood.
The real identity of this woman is the daughter of the county magistrate, but what is actually happens, others can see through it.
Wanfu narrowed her eyes and chuckled, "Go over and take a look." ”
……
The dance in the long pavilion is a dream, and the Lou Cai girl dances, twisting her waist to serve tea to the man sitting on the stone bench, "The concubine dances clumsily, and she is not as good as the servants in the palace." ”
Li Xuanyin took the tea without being salty, rubbed the rim of the cup with his fingertips, and did not drink it, but only glanced at her lightly when he heard the words, "You are my concubine, you must not compare with them." ”
Lou Cainu did not understand what she meant, and looked at the man shyly and timidly, her charming eyes were like mountains and rivers, but whenever an ordinary man saw it, he wanted to be crispy and crispy, but the emperor in front of him did not look at it.
Chen Dehai, who was waiting on the sidelines, couldn't help but want to laugh, thinking that the girls on this floor were good-looking, but they were not very smart, and they couldn't even hear the meaning of the emperor's words. Since she has entered the harem, she is the emperor's woman, how can the emperor's woman be compared with the servant! Besides, there are many beauties in this harem, and Lou Cainu is indeed beautiful enough, compared to Concubine Ling, it is still a little worse.
Thinking of Concubine Ling, Chen Dehai's eyes couldn't help but glance at the emperor, who had been angry for so long, but it still didn't go away. Concubine Ling Niangniang was sick for a few days, how could the emperor put his mind at ease, and called the imperial doctor every day to interrogate, I heard that the condition was aggravated, and in the middle of the night, they all went to the gate of Zhaoyang Palace, and endured it. When he saw it, he felt a little sorry for the emperor that night, and he had never seen the emperor care so much about a woman.
As he was sighing, he heard a familiar voice in his ears, "The concubine greets the emperor." ”
Chen Dehai's heart jumped, and when he looked up, he saw Concubine Ling coming over, and instantly burst into tears.
Li Xuanyin looked at the woman in front of her who was still pale on her cheeks, pinched the wrench of her thumb, and looked away.
The man didn't pay attention to him, and Wanfu didn't feel uncomfortable, she pretended not to know about Lou Cainu, and asked with a smile: "When I greeted him, the sisters sat far away, and the palace didn't see clearly, which sister is this?" ”
Lou Cainu's eyes glanced around, and when she saw that the emperor treated Concubine Ling with a cold face, she expected that Concubine Ling's status was not as exaggerated as rumored in the harem.
At the end of the day, it was the old man, how could he compare to these newcomers, so he was not polite, "Concubine Lou, presumably Concubine Ling Niangniang is older, and her eyes are so bad." The color of the concubine can make Concubine Ling ignore it. ”
As she spoke, Lou Cainu pinched her handkerchief, covered the corners of her lips and smiled, as if it was funny.
Wanfu's smile faded, and her face looked a little whiter than when she came.
Seeing that Concubine Ling's face was so ugly, Lou Cainu became more and more proud, she boldly walked to the man's side and grabbed Li Xuanyin's sleeve, "The concubine's dance is only for the emperor to see, and the emperor will let Concubine Ling leave here as an eyesore." ”
When these words fell, Chen Dehai did not dare to look at the emperor's face at all. Probably the newcomer has no brains, and dares to provoke Concubine Ling, in this harem, who has provoked Concubine Lingniang, which one has to be good?
Li Xuanyin's eyes immediately sank, and he brushed away the woman's hand.
Lou Cainu was caught off guard, her body fell to the ground, her charming eyes widened, and she looked at the man in surprise, "Your Majesty? She was puzzled in her heart, and coldly touched the man's sunken black eyes, and a chill was inexplicably born in her heart, she lowered her head in a panic, knelt down, "Concubine...... The concubines are stupid, and they don't know where to displease the emperor......"
Li Xuanyin said coldly, "Don't respect the superior, how did you teach your grandmother the rules, kneel here to reflect on me!" ”
Until this time, Lou Cainu still did not understand where she had broken the rules and made the emperor unhappy, and she clearly did what her grandmother said, and she did it exactly right.
Li Xuanyin got up and passed by the woman's side, and her sleeve was pulled by a faint force. He looked at him coldly, and the woman looked at him pitifully and asked in a low voice, "Is the emperor still angry?" ”
After being sick for half a month, the face that had been raised with a round face lost weight again. She used to know how to put out the fire, and after so long, even if he had anger, he slowly dissipated, and he couldn't get it out if he wanted to.
Li Xuanyin's face turned blue, "You also know that I am angry? ”
I knew that I was still deliberately hanging him, so I looked for him once, and I couldn't do it once because I was too lazy. She didn't take him to heart, she relied on him to take her helplessly, this woman is really cunning and hateful!
The more Li Xuanyin thought about it, the more annoyed she became, not wanting to hear her say those rhetorical words, so she threw off her sleeves and went down the steps.
Wanfu staggered, but she was not as embarrassed as Lou Cainu. She looked at the man's back as he faded away, and curled her lips slightly.
After a moment, Wanfu turned her face and looked at Lou Cainu who was kneeling in place.
Lou Cainu realized that the emperor punished her, not because she had offended the emperor by losing her honor, but because she did not respect Concubine Ling. The emperor's disrespect for the throne was exactly what Concubine Ling was talking about.
Lou Cainu didn't understand the situation in the harem for a while, and what kind of attitude the emperor had towards Concubine Ling.
……
That night, the palace people of the Si Sleeping Division presented the jade plaque of the servant. Chen Dehai was grinding ink on the side, and took a look at the saucer, and after the incident in the imperial garden today, the emperor obviously still had thoughts about Concubine Ling.
A few days ago, Concubine Ling Niangniang contracted a disease, removed the sign of the bed, now it seems that Concubine Ling Niangniang's body is already very good, if there is a heart, you should see the emperor's meaning, hang the jade card, it will be a matter of course, and it will naturally return to favor.
Chen Dehai thought of the beauty in his heart, and when his eyes looked towards the tray, he glanced at it, and then he didn't see Concubine Ling's jade plate, Chen Dehai's heart jumped. The little eunuch of the partial division of the dormitory finally added another mouthful, "Your Majesty, Concubine Ling's old illness has not been cured, and it is not suitable to sleep in the dormitory." ”
"An old illness still hasn't healed?" The man sneered.
Chen Dehai's head was pressed down, and he could barely lower any lower, and the little eunuch, like him, hung his head stiffly, covered in cold sweat. It's not that he wants to say this when he is looking for death, it's that Concubine Ling warned him that he has to say no!
Li Xuanyin suddenly raised his hand and knocked over the sign in the tray, and his voice was so cold that ice slag could fall out, "Get out!" ”
The little eunuch of the Si Dormitory Division hurriedly answered the words, fell three times in a row from the imperial steps, and trotted out of the hall without daring to turn his head.
The little eunuch ran away, leaving behind a pile of jade plates, Chen Dehai squatted down to clean up, he picked it up and hugged it into his arms, and without waiting for him to speak, he listened to the emperor say: "Yonghe Zhai sleeps." ”
Yonghezhai is the dormitory of Xiao Guiren.
When the new concubine entered the palace, the most favored person was Xiao Guiren.
Chen Dehai did not understand what the emperor meant, so he was stunned, did not dare to think about it again, and ordered the palace people to prepare for the drive.
Yonghe Zhai heard the letter of the servant, and the palace people up and down began to get busy. In the inner hall, Xiao Guiren was combing on the makeup mirror, and the little palace maids were around her, combing her hair, rubbing powder, busy in a mess, saying ingenious auspicious words in her mouth.
Xiao Guiren is a good-natured person, no matter what he hears, he just smiles lightly.
The palace man who was waiting by his side said: "The master is really good-looking, and he smiles like a flower!" ”
The woman in the makeup mirror is not born with a very bright appearance, and she does not stand out in the delicate and glamorous harem, but there are two pear vortices on the side of her cheeks, which add harmony to this gentleness, and her eyes are clear and clean, as if they are not stained by the world.
Xiao Guiren stroked his hair and sideburns, was very satisfied with the makeup of this night, and rewarded the palace people with two golden beans on the makeup.
Hearing that the saint drove to Yonghezhai, Xiao Guiren led the palace people in the hall to greet him.
Xiao Guiren shyly and timidly blessed the salute, but at the end he had just entered the palace, and he still couldn't wipe his face.
Li Xuanyin nodded, "Are you still adapting to these days?" ”
Xiao Guiren's face was flushed, "With the emperor's arms, everything is fine with the concubines." ”
She was taught these words, and harem women would say these kinds of things. Li Xuanyin was busy with government affairs, and rarely cared about the concubines in the harem, so he couldn't care about it at all. But when she said this, Li Xuanyin would not brush the face of the harem concubines.
Entering the inner hall, Xiao Guiren came in with a warm hot soup, "The emperor is working day and night on the government, drinking too much tea is not good for the body, this is the concubine's mother is used to making flower soup for her father, which is different from ordinary tea, light and calming, the emperor tastes it." ”
Li Xuanyin casually drank it and praised it, but the bowl of soup only touched the side of his mouth, and he opened his mouth to praise it without knowing whether he had tasted it, obviously not in his mind.
"The emperor is ...... Got something on your mind? Xiao Guiren asked tentatively, and after asking, he felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly pinched his handkerchief to cover his lips.
Li Xuanyin's eyelids lifted, rubbed the edge of the bowl, and suddenly said, "I want to know, what kind of heart do you have for me." ”
Xiao Guiren's eyes widened in surprise, she couldn't think of the meaning of the emperor's words, and according to the rules taught by her grandmother, she knelt on the ground with her skirt and raised her hand with an oath, "The concubine treats the emperor with sincerity and sincerity, and never dares to deceive and slack off in the slightest." ”
"Sincere, true?" Li Xuanyin chewed these words, hooked his lips and chuckled, sincere and sincere, can anyone really do it? He raised his hand to get her up, not caring whether it was true or not, whether it was true or not, and when it came to his position, he had nothing to say.
