Hu Yunrong prostrated herself deeply, and the cool and bright light of the red gold jewelery made her usually petite and cheerful face reflect a cold and stern light. Zhengui concubine is a person who has children, and it is unbearable to hear the separation of mother and daughter. These days
She was suffering from lingering illness. At this moment, she forced her sick body to sit in the palace. She glanced at Xuan Ling from a distance and timidly said: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I am a bit confused. I would like to ask... Liangdi."
Xuan Ling said warmly: "You say."
Concubine Zhengui got his permission, and Fang Yiyi said: "I think that the embroidered pattern on this dress resembles that of a phoenix, but it is just a resemblance. The image of a phoenix is a tiger in front, scales behind, a snake's neck, a fish's tail, and a stork's throat.
Mandarin gills, dragon patterns, turtle backs, swallow jaws, and chicken beaks are all five colors, about six feet high. The embroidered pattern on this dress is less than six feet high, only four or five feet high, and there are thirty-six colors, but none of them are
The main palace is a pure color, with snake patterns instead of dragon patterns, and the feathers are mostly green gold instead of just pure gold, and they don't seem to be completely similar to the phoenix."
Concubine Zhen Gui pointed out one by one with as much detail as a hair. With each finger pointing, Xuan Ling's frown became calmer. As soon as she finished her words, she heard the steady voice of a woman entering from the palace door, saying loudly: "
That’s right. This pattern is not a phoenix, but an invention of a divine bird!”
Xiu Xia couldn't help frowning and shouted: "Who dares to be so rude and make such a loud noise in the Queen's main hall!"
The visitor ignored Xiu Xia's scolding and only bowed deeply to Xuan Ling and the Queen, "Slave Qiongji, please send your regards to the Emperor and Queen."
Qiangjia was Hu Yunrong's dowry, and she had served the eldest princess Wuyang in the past. The queen also wanted her to be a bit mean-spirited, so she couldn't help scolding Xiuxia, "It's just that Qingjia is eager to protect the master, you don't understand the rules at all!"
Agargar smiled faintly and said, "I have always heard that the noble concubine Zhen is very knowledgeable, and she is indeed good. The old slave thanked me on behalf of the lady." She said "old slave", which was quite self-reliant. After saying that, she slowly unfolded the scroll in her hand, and there were
The five birds, with their brilliantly colored feathers, were all beautiful and cheerful. Agar raised her head and pulled up her hair, and said slowly: "There are five divine birds in the ancient books. The invention of the east, the spade in the west, the bright light in the south, the quiet prosperity in the north, and the phoenix in the center
.It resembles a phoenix, with a long beak, sparse wings, and a round tail. It does not gather unless it is quiet, and it does not eat unless it is a treasure. It is no wonder that you ladies and gentlemen do not know that this sacred bird has been lost except for the picture of the phoenix.
For a long time, it would have been difficult to find it if it weren't for my young lady's elegance and appreciation of ancient ideas." After that, he carefully compared the scroll with the patterns on his clothes. Sure enough, it was the invention of the divine bird rather than the phoenix. It's just that the two are very similar. If you don't tell me, it's extremely difficult to find.
Difficult to distinguish.
"The queen is in charge of the middle palace and deserves to be the phoenix among women. The four noble, virtuous and virtuous concubines under the queen belong to the four palaces of east, west, south and north, just like the four sacred birds of east, west, south and north. For example, the concubine Shu is in charge of the west palace, which can bring good omens.
My young lady is not dressed like a phoenix, so it’s really not an arrogance!” After finishing speaking, Qiongji helped Hu Yunrong, who was kneeling on the ground, and said, “My young lady has been wronged.”
Xuan Ling looked at each other and felt apologetic. He stretched out his hand to hold Yunrong's hand and said, "You didn't tell me earlier that you suffered this injustice for nothing."
Hu Yunrong's face was full of grievances, with a hint of childish coquettishness, but she couldn't see the cold and arrogant expression that she had just said without saying a word. She shook off Xuan Ling's hand, stamped her feet and said: "My cousin had such a bad temper just now, do I still dare to argue?
?If you get anxious, and my cousin knows Ronger’s temper, he will definitely annoy me with his unscrupulous words, and you will definitely ignore me even more!"
An Lingrong on the side heard the word "Rong'er" and couldn't help but be startled. She turned her head instinctively, realized it immediately, raised her lips and smiled indifferently. This was the first time I heard Yunrong call herself this way in front of Xuan Ling. I smiled slightly.
Thinking about it, this "Rong'er" is not the other "Rong'er". Hu Yunrong has always been arrogant and arrogant. How could An Lingrong say "Rong'er" in front of her and take away her weight in Xuan Ling's heart. I laughed secretly,
Hu Yunrong must also have this problem in her heart.
Xuan Ling was both angry and funny, "Have you ever been such a timid person? You just don't dare to speak harshly in front of me. How come you didn't speak well in the Queen's Palace just now, and yet you made the Queen so annoyed? How can you give birth to this?
Is this going to happen?"
Zhao Jieyu rolled her eyes, with a smile on her face, and said hurriedly: "That's right? Who doesn't know that Sister Hu has always been very sharp-tongued, so it would be nice if she had finished talking about the matter early. The Queen is the most broad-minded person, so she will definitely laugh off these small misunderstandings.
After all, there is no need for us sisters to run around in panic."
Hu Yunrong's eyes turned, and she smiled and said: "Why don't I want to explain it to the queen in detail? As soon as I entered the Zhaoyang Palace, the queen glared, and everyone was kicked out, leaving only the concubine and the queen.
When people speak, they always say "justice to destroy relatives". I always say "cousin" in front of the queen. How can I have seen the scene today, only being sad and scared, how can I dare to argue? Even Concubine Shu was scolded by the queen when she came in.
He scolded her for being weak and cowardly, and she was so frightened that Concubine Shu didn't even dare to express her anger." Her eyes trickled across the queen's face, and then she smiled and said: "Cousin, please don't be angry, my cousin is recovering from a long illness.
, it is inevitable that she will get angry easily!" She whispered in Xuan Ling's ear, "In addition to the medicines often prescribed by the imperial physician, my cousin also has to ask the imperial physician to treat the queen with some Kunbao Pills, Baifeng Pills, and Fuchun Decoction.
"
Although Yun Rong spoke softly, several young concubines nearby heard it and couldn't help but cover their mouths and chuckle. Xuan Ling smiled, pinched her wrist, and cursed with a smile: "You're talking nonsense, the Queen will be there
It's time for menopause." Although he smiled, his eyes touched the queen, and his eyebrows moved, as if he was angry, but he suppressed it and said lightly: "Be less angry in the future, it will not be good for your health.
.”
Seeing this change, the Queen was not impatient. She lowered her head and said calmly: "Yunrong has always been loved by the Emperor and the Queen Mother. If she makes a mistake, wouldn't it cause trouble and sorrow for the Emperor and the Queen Mother? They love deeply and blame deeply, and so do I, my concubine."
Concern leads to chaos.”
Yunrong smiled faintly, but it was Qiongji who said, "Thank you so much for your concern, Queen."
Lu Zhaorong hesitated for a long time, as if he couldn't hold back what he said, and finally blurted out: "Just now, Aunt Qiongji said that the queen is the phoenix in the middle palace, and that the concubine Shu's entry into the west palace is a sign of the divine bird pheasant; then as you said, Hu...
She hesitated for a moment, not knowing what to call her, "The invention of the divine bird on her clothes means that her entry into the East Palace is a sign of becoming a noble concubine!" She remembered the rumors in the palace that Yun Rong has been named Chang Fei and will ascend to the position of noble concubine.
She couldn't help but secretly gasped at the rumors.
Rumors are just rumors. If you really have this intention and it is so obvious to the public, even Lady Yu Rong, who has been favored for several months, can't help but sneer, "Liangdi is so blessed! What a big heart!"
Hu Yunrong turned a deaf ear and carefully took off a piece of jade hanging from a golden flower chain around her neck, held it in her hand, gathered her clothes, straightened her skirt, and bowed solemnly, "Your Majesty, why do you think this concubine dares to claim to have invented a magical bird? Your Majesty, can you still return this?"
Remember the piece of jade that I held in my hand when I was born?" She solemnly presented the jade in her hand, "Your Majesty, please take a closer look at the pattern carved on the reverse side of the jade."
I stood next to Xuan Ling and took a closer look. It was a rare piece of red jade, only half the size of a baby's hand. It was as red as a cockscomb, warm and moist, with a firm and delicate texture, transparent and pure. The Shangyi string pattern on the front was simple.
It is dignified and engraved with the four words "Eternal and Everlasting", which means warmth and kindness. On the reverse side is a pair of divine bird patterns. At first glance, it looks like a phoenix. Only after careful analysis can you see that the shape was invented by the Eastern divine bird.
"I was born with unable to use my hands. On the day I saw the emperor, the emperor personally took out this piece of jade from his hand and wrote 'Eternal Prosperity', which was a sign of the great fortune of the Zhou Dynasty and the prosperity of the world. I feel so blessed by God.
With deep love, you can be born with a jade, so you can serve the emperor better, and you must do your best without slacking off. The concubines cannot give birth to children for the emperor, and they are restless day and night. They have to pray for the gods to protect and protect the great Zhou Dynasty. See Jade again
The pattern carved on the jade looked very much like a phoenix, and I was timid and a little confused. I thought that both my cousins were queens, and since my cousin was now in charge of the harem, how could the concubine’s jade jade be really a phoenix? After consulting countless ancient books, I found out that it was actually a phoenix.
The invention of the divine bird. My concubine heard that in ancient times, the divine bird invented the palm of an auspicious hand and could control good weather and good weather. She was so happy that she embroidered it on her favorite clothes, so that she could always seek protection. She did not mean to covet the throne of the imperial concubine.
." Her face was solemn and solemn, and she spoke elegantly, showing the lofty elegance of a noble concubine.
Xuan Ling personally helped her to stand up, with a slightly moved expression, "I feel sorry for your hard work."
Yunrong looked a little shy, raised her small chin arrogantly, and looked at An Lingrong sideways, "Thanks to Zhaoyuan for being as meticulous as a hair, paying attention to everything in the Yanxi Palace, even visiting patients, so that we can
I have made it possible for my concubine to work so hard to reach heaven and publicize it in front of people." She said with a half-smile but not a smile, "I have to thank Zhaoyuan very much."
Concubine Jing smiled and said: "Sister Zhaoyuan, it's true that she is always attentive to the emperor. She doesn't want to, but Aiwujiwu is so attentive. It's strange that the emperor always shows special pity to Zhaoyuan."
Qi Concubine and Xiang Concubine looked at each other, held up their chins and said with a smile: "Yes, there are always people who like to make trouble. At this time, we sisters are enjoying themselves playing chess and playing tricks on birds.
"
An Lingrong was a little embarrassed, and quickly smiled and said: "I am also timid, and I can't hide my words in my heart. I originally thought that the Queen and Sister Hu are my sisters, so they must be easy to talk to. Unexpectedly, after going around and around, such a big disturbance arises.
Come on, it’s all my concubines.” After saying that, he knelt down in tears.
Xuan Ling looked at her for a moment and said, "You are always too cautious. Just be more careful in the future." He turned to Yunrong with a smile and blurted out, "You have such an innocent heart, how can you not be a noble concubine?"
A hint of joy that could not be concealed flashed across Yunrong's eyes, and was instantly lost in her radiant look, "The emperor has given me the reward."
Without all the previous grievances, twists and turns, and coquettishness, how could the promise of being a "noble concubine" come easily? If you want to gain something, you must first lose something!
People's desires are like deep and hard to fill. After getting the imperial concubine, what does she want? I stared at her petite body, then turned to look at the queen on the phoenix throne, and couldn't help but smile to myself, there was a queen who opened her eyes and stood behind the imperial concubine.
With this precedent, Hu Yunrong’s ambition is really quite big! Having such a cousin is enough to give the queen a headache!
Just pay close attention to her thoughts and actions. If she really replaces her with Zhu Yixiu, how can she be easy to get along with? What's more, Zhu Yixiu is still in the back position, and Xuan Ling cares about me and Concubine Duan. As a noble concubine, she "should be
There is still a huge gap between "get it" and "should be successful"!
I lowered my eyes, raised my sleeves to cover up a slight cough, and turned my eyes slightly to Concubine Duan, who was sitting attentively. Xuan Ling suddenly understood, realized his gaffe, and felt slightly embarrassed.
I smiled and said: "Back then, the queen also became a noble concubine. If it is true as the emperor said, sister Hu will become a noble concubine in the future, and all her relatives will be my imperial concubines. Isn't this a good story?" I glanced at Madam Yu Rong.
, full of laughter: "Madam just now called Sister Hu Liangdi, she really deserves a beating!"
The queen concentrated for a moment, then smiled, "It is for no reason that Yun Rong was frightened by being demoted to Liang Di. This concubine's ceremony will be carefully arranged by me and Concubine Shu together as an apology for the shock. What does your Majesty do?"
Xuan Ling felt relieved, "Let's go through the concubine ceremony first. The queen is familiar with the ceremony, so she should spend more time on Yunrong."
The queen's smile was like a frivolous cloud. She took my hand and said, "Concubine Shu has been wronged today. When it comes to inappropriate clothing, Concubine Shu knows best. She was convicted and left the palace. After all,
It's also for a piece of my sister's clothes. The emperor is a person who values affection and righteousness, but he also values palace rules. Today, Concubine Shu was here to persuade me to reconcile, but I was even more sad when I saw her remembering old things.
After saying that, she pointed at me and said to everyone: "Concubine Shu is such a smart person. Because she accidentally broke the rules and bumped into the late Queen Chunyuan, I and the emperor had to shed tears and punish her severely. Today's incident with Yunrong
, I thought she had forgotten the lessons learned from the past and bumped into me again, fearing that she would do what she did in the past, which made her even more sad and tempered." She warned earnestly, "Fortunately, it was a misunderstanding. But the rules of the palace are strict, and people
We are all the same, sisters, you must pay attention to your words and deeds, otherwise I will not dare to violate the centuries-old rules of our ancestors even if I feel sorry for you."
Everyone calls her Nuonuo. When I heard the queen mention the grudges from back then, I felt extremely hateful in my heart. However, Xuan Ling couldn't show anything in front of her and could only bow her head in agreement.
"The Queen is wrong!" While everyone was bowing their heads, Hu Yunrong said something shocking. A faint smile flashed across her lips and she said leisurely: "If you violate the rules and offend your Majesty, you will naturally be severely punished. But... just like the Emperor Fang just now
I thought that the concubine embroidered the phoenix pattern on her clothes intentionally, and that Concubine Shu mistakenly wore the old clothes of Queen Chunyuan unintentionally. She thought that the concubine was deliberately demoted to a good lady of the fifth rank, but Concubine Shu was demoted to a noble lady of the sixth rank unintentionally. I heard that
Concubine Shu suffered a lot when she was confined to Tangli Palace. The meals provided by the Ministry of Internal Affairs were all rotten, and even coal was not provided in the winter. The cold made Concubine Shu and the slaves suffer from chilblains, not to mention asking for food.
Hiring an imperial doctor also cost the life of a close maid. If the concubine was really punished by the emperor, she would still be able to see Hehe once a month, but Concubine Shu was banished to Ganlu Temple. If she hadn't been more blessed, I'm afraid this would be the case.
In my entire life, I don’t even know what the Emperor Longyue looks like!”
"Those servants in the House of Internal Affairs who dared to bully you were punished by me to wash the toilet bowl (1)." I had mixed feelings in my heart. No wonder Huanbi wanted to privately investigate and deal with those internal guards who had bullied Tangli Palace back then, but none of them were traced.
It turns out that there is still this section. Xuan Ling's expression was slightly shocked, and there was a trace of guilt in his eyes, "I always thought Liu Zhu's death was just an accident."
"Thank you, Your Majesty. But it's all in the past." The purple and gold six-sided mirror on my bun covered my uneasy eyes, and my voice sounded extremely moved. I
After a pause, he said to Hu Yunrong with a smile, "The emperor loves my sister very much, so he cannot bear to take heavy responsibility. In terms of our close relationship with the emperor, how can I dare to be on par with my sister?"
When she mentioned my humble past, her words were quite complacent. However, the drunkard's intention was not wine, so how could she spend so much time just to show off, "Concubine Shu, you belittle yourself. It's not that my cousin intentionally favors me."
, but Queen Chunyuan and the queen's cousin are different. When she was in the palace, Queen Chunyuan was the daughter of the royal wife, Mrs. Tao, and the queen's cousin was the daughter of the third concubine." There was a mean smile in her eyes, "
Empress Chunyuan is the emperor's direct consort and the biological sister of the queen's cousin. It is a legend in the city that a queen and a concubine were born in the royal family that day. However, when Empress Chunyuan was alive, the queen's cousin was still a noble concubine, and the concubine was also a concubine. Folk wives were married.
There are still differences between getting married and filling a house, and the concubines are older and younger, so how can the queen consider herself to be on par with Queen Chunyuan?"
What she said was extremely spicy! Everyone in the palace knew that the queen was born as a concubine. Although she was appointed queen after the death of Queen Chunyuan, everyone knew it. These two queens were not in love with Xuan Ling.
There is a world of difference. If Xuan Ling dies one day, the queen will have to be buried with her in the mausoleum. Zhu Yixiu can only have a place to put his coffin and jar on the left side, which is about one foot away.
Everyone knows how subtle it is, but who dares to take the risk of saying it openly?
The queen has always been calm and calm. When she heard the word "concubine", the muscles on her face could not help but twitch. When she heard the words "knot" and "fill in the house", her face had not revealed anything, and her fingertips were already trembling.
I think she was really angry. I have never seen her look like this since I entered the palace. Everyone has weaknesses, and the Queen is no exception.
However, it only took a moment. She wrapped her trembling fingertips in her wide lotus sleeves and said, "I only have this sister. Since I was a child, my sister has loved and cared for me, and my sisterly love is deep. I naturally respect her everywhere and dare not interact with her."
Comparable."
A sarcastic smile flashed across Yunrong's lips, and she looked sincere, "Yes. I think so too, does my cousin say so?"
