"I have also heard from others that my young master Jing has been very picky since she became pregnant. Now, according to the rules of the palace, the empress Dowager De will treat several full-year-old palace maids.
After leaving the palace, I heard that there was a maid who was the tutor of Jing Concubine. Jing Concubine refused, so she went to talk to the Dowager Empress. Her words were very disrespectful, and she also mocked the Empress for being a concubine of the previous dynasty but interfering in the harem. Tokuta
With such a status as a concubine, she has been the co-president of the Sixth Palace for more than 20 years. Even the Queen Mother is respectfully addressed as "Sister" on weekdays. She has never been so angry. It is said that she has not left the house for several days. She also threatened to let the Queen Mother choose a concubine early.
The concubine takes care of the harem, so that she, an old woman, won’t have to worry about it here.” Xiaoyun said happily.
After hearing this, I became furious, slammed my right hand on the table, and said angrily: "Despite how much money she has in her belly, she is just a fifth-grade concubine, not even the head of the first palace, yet she dares to be rude to Concubine De.
When I saw her Ansheng a few days ago, I thought I had wronged her before, but I didn't expect that as time went by, all of her true nature was revealed. Changning Bofu is really a good tutor."
Xiaoyun had just entered the palace, and she had rarely seen me so angry. She was a little flustered for a moment, and quickly advised her: "Emperor, please calm down. It's all because of my fault that I passed on these unhappy things to you."
I took a breath and said, "It's none of your business. I'm afraid you won't be able to hide this news from me even if you want to. By the way, does the Queen Mother have any decree?"
Xiaoyun secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said hurriedly: "Back to Your Highness, the rainy season has arrived, and I heard that the Queen Mother's foot disease has become severe again. She has not slept well for several days, but Aunt Cui asked for leave, and Imperial Doctor Wei went to take care of Prince Qi's Ji.
The concubine was pregnant. It was said that the emperor was so anxious that he had to go to Yining Palace to serve him every day. It was the Queen Mother who said that the imperial examination was important this summer and forced the emperor to return to the former court. Alas, therefore, Meng, who was good at surgery,
It is believed that the imperial doctor got a blessing in disguise and was pardoned by the emperor from Mingyuan. He was put on duty in the side hall of Yining Palace."
I calmed down and thought about it carefully, and I understood that this concubine Jing's move was not aimed at Concubine Demu, but at the power.
Nowadays, there are more and more concubines in the imperial court, but the Queen Mother still lets the concubines from the previous dynasty take care of the harem. Even the most important concubine Mao Gui can only deal with some trivial matters. The reason is simply that the queen's position has not been determined. The power of co-managing the six palaces is
It's more like a hint that can arouse terrible desires in people's hearts. And Jing Concubine relies on Yu Yu to make no secret of her greed. It's hard to imagine why the Queen Mother, who is not afraid of life and death, would turn a blind eye and just
Is it because of the royal brother’s heir?
Seeing that I couldn't figure it out, I had to pull back my thoughts, stood up and said to Xiaoyun: "The Queen Mother is not feeling well. I didn't know she was alone. I should make an appointment with Xuepo tomorrow to pay her respects. Now, while it's still dark, come with me."
A trip to the Longevity Palace. Now I can only care about the health of Concubine Demu."
Everyone probably knows that Concubine Demu accepted the grievance, so when I arrived at the Longevity Palace, Concubine Zhenmu, Concubine Maogui and Concubine Xuepo were all there. Concubine Demu was surrounded in the middle, leaning on the collapse, too lazy to move.
He loves to talk. When he saw me coming, he reluctantly got up and smiled and said, "It's unlucky for you to come. This year's lotus root starch hasn't come yet. No matter how skillful your hands are, you can't make water chestnut cakes."
I knew she was joking, but with so many people here, I was still a little embarrassed, so I said angrily: "What did the concubine say? It seems that Zipei only thinks about eating."
Concubine Zhenmu smiled and said: "No, Huaishu is so old, but my sister still treats her as a child and wants to coax her with sweets and play with everything." After a pause, she sighed as if she remembered something again:
"My Yu Pei cried the most when he was a child. At that time, I could only give him milk tablets to coax him. But last month when he came to the palace to pay his respects, I brought the milk to him again. But he didn't move at all."
I see that she is a little sad, and it’s no wonder when I think about it. Ever since her father, Emperor Longyu, came to the guest house, she has been devastated. The only thing she cares about in the world is her son. But brother Yupei is growing up day by day, and is no longer as dependent on his mother as he was when he was a child.
, how could Concubine Zhenmu not be disappointed? Then I said: "Concubine Zhenmu, wouldn't it be nice for brother Yupei to grow up? Last time I went to say hello to Concubine Duanmu, and when she talked about the second emperor brother, she also said that he
He looks more and more like his father when he was young."
Concubine Zhenmu said in surprise: "Seriously?"
When Concubine De Mu heard this, she smiled knowingly and said: "That's all. Concubine Duangui has served the late emperor since she was a child. Among us old sisters, she is the only one who saw the late emperor when he was a young man. Since she said it, where can I
Is it fake?"
This interruption made the atmosphere lively. At this time, the maid next to Mao Guibi hurriedly came over and whispered a few words in the master's ear. I clearly saw Mao Guibi's delicate willow eyebrows frowning, but she immediately signaled
The palace maid stepped back and said with a gentle smile: "My dear concubine, two empresses, some trivial things happened in Yuejing Palace, so I have to leave in disappointment. Please forgive me, my dear concubine De, and my concubine Zhenyi."
The two mothers and concubines had been immersed in the harem for decades, and had experienced hundreds and eighty things, both big and small. They could tell the general story without even taking a glance at it. They all sent her away with warm words.
This interruption aroused suspicion in everyone's mind, and they seemed to be talking with low interest, and they soon dispersed. However, when Xue Po was about to go out, he told me: "In about ten days, Sister Li Jin and Su
Ling is about to enter the palace to accompany her mother, so don’t forget to come when the time comes."
I was very happy when I heard that, and said: "We have been friends since childhood, so there is no need to give orders. It is said that my sister Jin'er has been granted the title of Emperor Ji. This is the first time we have met. I must congratulate her well."
Xue Po said casually: "Forget it, my aunt has been scared by He Duhe recently. If my mother hadn't been sick and missed her family, I'm afraid she wouldn't have brought Jin'er out."
As a result, before I could wait for these two handkerchiefs to be handed over, I heard that something had happened again at Yuping Palace the next day.
After the concubine Ding had a miscarriage and the concubine Jing became pregnant, Chang Zai Xu Qiushi, who entered the palace with them, was favored by the imperial brother. After experiencing a series of turmoil, Xu Qiushi's youth and simplicity made the imperial brother love him. Not only did he favor him frequently, but he also
His status is also constantly rising. I heard that he will be promoted to Xiaoyi soon.
This is nothing. Since ancient times, there has been no emperor who has not been sentimental. The royal family selects concubines just for this purpose. But I can think this way because I am the emperor's sister, not the emperor's concubine. I am not in my position and do not seek political affairs, but I am in it.
