The old and new concubines were all dressed in bright clothes, with exquisite makeup, and flattered the Queen Mother Rong with soft voices. But the emperor was still late, and the Queen Mother Rong couldn't help but feel unhappy, and the concubines couldn't help but feel anxious. A piece of "Xiaoxiang Water" presented by Jiang Baolin
Yun's music on the piano failed to change the Queen Mother's appearance, so she had no choice but to retreat with the piano in her arms.
At this moment, the eunuch in charge Zhu Sichang brought good news: "The Queen Mother, the emperor is here!"
Empress Dowager Rong instantly turned from anger to joy, and the concubines also showed their faces. Yu Meiren hurriedly straightened out the new hairpin on her temples, and Jiang Baolin, Lin Xuanshi, and Cui Xuanshi even secretly applied makeup and powder.
, fearing that her appearance was not charming enough, the Luocai man only straightened his sleeves and looked elegant and calm.
Under the attention of all the old and new concubines, His Majesty the Emperor finally appeared in the Yi Nian Palace.
In terms of appearance, this young Emperor is indeed tall, heroic and handsome. Although his wheat-colored skin is still a little darker, his skin tone is even, his facial features are handsome, and there is a majestic air between his eyebrows. He looks so good.
, coupled with this status, it is indeed enough to make the hearts of many young girls beat wildly.
Not to mention Yu Meiren, Jiang Baolin, Lin Xuanshi, and Cui Xuanshi, even the cold-tempered Luo Cairen's eyes froze slightly and he quickly lowered his head. Although Xin Zhaorong has been in the palace for three years, it is already over.
I haven't seen Long Yan for more than half a year, and I suddenly felt that the emperor was more masculine than last year, and his figure seemed to be stronger.
Xin Zhaorong's face turned red, and his heart suddenly surged. He couldn't help but think that the emperor was darker, but he seemed to be more manly.
A mighty and majestic man.
As soon as he entered the Yi Nian Palace, Emperor Ming Zhao felt a buzzing in his ears, as if a swarm of bees had entered his ears! And the loudest one among them was Xin Zhaorong!
Wait, someone seems to say that I am not that dark anymore? Huh? The meaning of this sentence, looking back now, is that they dislike me for being too dark?!
In an instant, Emperor Mingzhao became even more angry, "Well, you Wen! Just wait for me!"
A group of concubines, old and new, were already blessed with blessings, and their delicate voices sounded out: "Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Ming Zhao glanced at this group of women coldly, I am uneasy, my ears are almost deafened by you!!
Ming Zhao took a deep breath, suppressed his irritation and anger, and stepped forward to greet the Queen Mother: "Mother."
Empress Dowager Rong smiled brightly, "The Ai family thought that the emperor was busy with government affairs and would not come to pay his respects to the Ai family today!"
Ming Zhao: I really didn’t plan to come!
Empress Dowager Rong looked at the graceful concubines with a smile, and said kindly: "Okay, don't be formal, all stand up and raise your heads, let the emperor take a good look at you!"
"Yes, the Queen Mother!" At this moment, her voice became softer and gentler. Needless to say, even Luo Cairen's cheeks turned slightly red.
For the newlyweds, this is the first time in their lives that they have met the emperor, their husband.
Emperor Ming Zhao only cast a cold gaze.
This look was enough to make most women feel in awe, and everyone bowed their heads slightly. Only Yu Meiren was brave enough. Not only did she not lower her head, she also raised a charming and bright smile, "Your Majesty, I am the beauty Yu.
!”
This is the Yu family who is said to be the most beautiful in the harem and who is said to be sure to be favored by me?! Humph!
Ming Zhao scolded coldly: "I didn't ask you anything, so who allowed you to talk too much?!"
The delicate beauty introduced herself with a sweet smile, but was met with a sarcastic rebuke from His Majesty the Emperor. This made the conceited Beauty Yu dumbfounded. Her eyes immediately turned red, and she was filled with tears. She was carrying pear blossoms with rain, and was extremely pitiful.
On the side, Luo Cairen lowered his head slightly and couldn't help but frown. Although Yu was frivolous, the emperor... was too merciless.
Emperor Mingzhao originally didn't care much about the woman's small complaints, but he was in a very bad mood today, and Luo Cairen's innocuous voice made the emperor particularly unhappy.
"That one next to Mrs. Yu, which one are you?" - You are quite courageous! You dare to secretly scold me like Mr. Wen!!
The person from Luo Cai was startled, then took a step forward and said, "I am a concubine from the Luo family."
Empress Dowager Rong was also puzzled as to why the emperor was so irritable today? Mrs. Yu was just too anxious to win favor.
The Emperor Ming Zhao was closest to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother's voice was naturally heard most clearly. He suddenly became even more irritable. I'm so sorry, Queen Mother, you have given birth to an irritable son!!
Empress Dowager Rong smiled hurriedly and said: "Luo Cai is a master of painting. How about Emperor Mo Mudan?"
Ming Zhao said coldly: "Look, the painting is very bad!"
Luocairen loved calligraphy and painting the most since she was a child. Her father hired a great Confucian scholar as her teacher since she was a child. Especially in painting, she did the most hard work. Even her brothers in the family considered themselves inferior. Now she is scolded by the emperor as "very
Not so good." Luo Cairen, who was proud of his nature, felt extremely aggrieved. His eyes turned red and he burst into tears on the spot.
The Queen Mother asked her to hold her forehead, and she cried again!
Xin Zhaorong saw this and was horrified in his heart. What happened to the emperor? Did he take gunpowder?
In this era, there were already muskets, called muskets, which were not very powerful and could only be used to shoot birds.
Ming Zhao: Presumptuous!!
Ming Zhao was extremely angry and smiled, "Xin Zhaorong."
Xin Zhaorong's whole body was filled with excitement, and he stood up as timidly as if he were going to a battlefield, "I'm here, my concubine."
Ming Zhao smiled and nodded: "During the days when I was away from the capital, you have always behaved yourself and not caused any trouble. This is good."
Xin Zhaorong is so dull, what's going on? The emperor actually praised me? The emperor is so angry that his brain is confused? Isn't the emperor usually disgusted with me the most?
Ming Zhao sneered in his heart: You are somewhat self-aware!
But! How dare you accuse me of being stupid? I’m not old yet! How presumptuous!
Ming Zhao's smile became gentler, "You have lived up to your father's teachings, and you have not let me or the Queen Mother down."
Empress Dowager Rong saw this and couldn't help but be overjoyed. Did the emperor suddenly appreciate the Xin family again? Although the Xin family was not delicate enough, she was young and healthy, and she looked like a good childbearer!
Ming Zhao felt choked in his heart. The only thing he could think about in his mother's heart was life and life!!
His Majesty the Emperor became even more agitated by the birth, "Mother, my son has seen Concubine Xian making many mistakes in handling palace affairs, why not ask Ruozhi to help take care of it too!"
Ruozhi is Xin Zhaorong's maiden name.
Zhaorong Xin Ruozhi's eyes were as wide as copper bells, what? Let me share the rights of the virtuous concubine? Then the virtuous concubine must hate me to death? No!
Empress Dowager Rong smiled and nodded: "This child Ruozhi was born in the Hou family. The Ai family is very relieved about her." - In terms of birth and family status, the Xin family is the best in the harem.
Xin Ruozhi was frightened. She glanced at Concubine Xian's shocked and angry face, took two steps forward and knelt down with a thud, "I beg the Queen Mother to take back my order! I am young and ignorant, how can I take care of palace affairs?"
The Concubine Xian has deep qualifications, and she has managed the harem all these years without any merit but with hard work!"
Queen Mother Rong was slightly surprised, the Xin family was not greedy for power.
Ming Zhao sneered in his heart, and now he still wants to push it away, but there is no door!
Ming Zhao's face remained gentle, "It is precisely because Concubine Xian works hard that I want you to share her worries."
Xin Ruozhi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the Concubine Xian is smart and capable, so she shouldn't need to worry about it with my concubines!"
"Oh? Really?!" Emperor Mingzhao gave the Concubine Lin a cold look. If you dare to say "no" out of your mouth... then you will lose even half of the palace power.
Concubine Xian was shocked. A few days ago, the little eunuch who delivered the message to her had been sent to the Department of Punishment and Punishment for being accused of "dirty hands and feet" and received a slap in the face. Half of his life was lost. Now... Your Majesty, this is
You must beat me! If I dare to say "no", I am afraid that I will be labeled as "spying on the traces of the Holy Spirit". Not to mention the palace power, I am afraid that I will not be able to keep my concubine position!
The Concubine Xian quickly knelt down and said, "Thank you for your consideration, Your Majesty. Sister Ruozhi is smart and smart. I would love to have her help me."
The sound of "Sister Ruozhi" made Xin Zhaorong get goosebumps all over her body. Who is your sister? Can you please stop calling her so affectionately? We are not familiar with each other!
Seeing Mrs. Xin's face looking like she was about to cry, Ming Zhao suddenly felt a lot more happy.
