This time, the residence of the concubines was all designated by the emperor, and the queen had no chance to interfere.
Although the palace in Shengjing does not have the twelve east and west palaces compared to the Forbidden City, there are five palaces built during the period of Emperor Taizu. If these five palaces are arranged in order from high to low, they are: Middle Palace Qingning
The east palace is Guanju Palace, the west palace is Linzhi Palace, the second east palace is Yanqing Palace, and the second west palace is Yongfu Palace.
The empress lived in Qingning Palace. Considering the current situation of Concubine Chen being in the spotlight, it was natural to think that Guanju Palace would be allocated to Concubine Chen by the emperor. Unexpectedly, the emperor turned around and asked her to go to Linzhi Palace.
The former resident of Guanyong Palace was Hai Lanzhu, the imperial concubine whom Emperor Taizu was so infatuated with.
Could it be that the emperor felt that the former "Chen Concubine" Hailanzhu lost her son and died young, which was really unlucky, so he did not let the Ji family live in Guanju Palace? Instead, he moved to Linzhi Palace, which was ranked third?
Ulanara frowned slightly and recited several times in his mind: "Lin's toe, Lin's toe..."
The unicorn's toes vibrate the young master - the unicorn's feet are flying, how auspicious the young master is.
This is a poem in the Book of Songs that praises princes and princes. It compares people with unicorns and wishes them many children and grandchildren, who will surely achieve great success.
Yinzhen had a profound foundation in Chinese studies. In his early years, when he was still living in the dormitory, Ulanala also thought about trying to read more books. When Yinzhen came over, there was some talk between them.
At this moment, she suddenly realized what Linzhi meant, and thought of Concubine Chen's sixth brother, she was secretly shocked.
impossible!
Not to mention that the third elder brother Hongshi has grown up and is now her son in the palace...
Even Hongli and Hongzhou were always in front of the emperor all day long.
The emperor should not be interested in a little brother who is still wearing a diaper!
However, Emperor Taizu was very fond of the little brother Hai Lanzhu had just given birth to, and even called him the "emperor's heir" in front of everyone, and also granted amnesty to the world?
Ulanara didn't want to think about it any more.
She raised her head slowly and subconsciously looked at Rong Yasheng.
Rong promised to see her face gloomy, so he immediately stepped forward to support her arm and said: "Is there anything wrong with you, my queen?"
Ulanara shook his head and said: "I am exhausted."
Rong promised to kneel down and help her take off her shoes. While putting the flower pot-soled shoes aside, he said tactfully: "I'll wait for the Queen to arrange it earlier - the hot water I just ordered them to prepare for the Queen has been prepared."
Okay, do you want to call me in now?"
Ulanara raised his beautiful eyebrows, looked at Rong and agreed, frowned and said: "Get up."
Rong promised to be startled and stood up slyly.
Ulanara looked her up and down for a few times before saying: "Although you are still serving me, you have agreed because of your status. You are the emperor's woman. You are still the same as before, kneeling and serving me.
, it doesn’t look down upon your status in the eyes of others.”
Rong agreed and said with a smile: "The Queen feels sorry for the slave! But the slave is carried by the Queen, and it is only natural for the slave to serve the Queen."
Ulanara smiled lightly, leaned back slightly, stretched his arms on the armrests of the chair, and then sighed and said: "Promote? I have the intention to support you, but you did it yourself.
What?"
She felt angry when she said this, and couldn't help but reached out and poked Rong Yaosheng's forehead, and said mercilessly: "Tell yourself, how many times has the emperor called you to bed until now?"
Rong promised that his little face turned red. He mumbled and did not dare to tell the truth. He just said vaguely: "It's a useless servant. Your Majesty... Your Majesty doesn't take this servant into consideration."
Ulanara glanced at her and then said: "You don't even take yourself seriously, what if you can make the emperor take you seriously?"
Rong promised to hang his head even lower, almost buried in his chest.
Ulanara sighed and said: "Okay, stop kneeling, get up too, the ground is cold."
Rong promised to get up and whispered: "I thank the Queen."
Ulanara raised his phoenix eyes, looked at her, and said slowly: "You have also seen the one from Linzhi Palace - when I entered the palace in Shengjing today, the Shengjing Internal Affairs Office fawned over me all the way. If it weren't for my ability,
With the Queen in the middle palace here, I'm afraid that the entire Ministry of Internal Affairs is eager to break into Linzhi Palace.
Concubine Chen is up now, but four years ago, she was just a little Chang Zai."
The queen stretched out her hand, and the cold jeweled enamel armor drew a wanton arc on the back of Rong Yaosheng's hand.
Rong promised to raise his head slightly.
The queen said slowly: "Don't forget, Ji's status back then was only one level higher than your promise. We, the master and the servants, all saw her climb up with our own eyes."
Rong promised in a low voice: "The slave is a palace maid, and Concubine Chen is a harem talent show. How can a slave be compared to Concubine Chen?"
Uranala sneered and said: "Born? Compared with the emperor's favor, what does 'birth' mean? Our emperor is cold-faced and warm-hearted - if he cares about anyone, 'poor birth' is nothing."
It will make him feel more distressed and try every means to support that person’s mother’s family.”
She paused, with a hint of dejection in her voice, and said: "Hua Rong, you are really useless! I think back then, after the failure of regaining the favor of the Hai family, I risked my life - I didn't even give up my face, and pushed you to the next level.
In front of the Emperor, it turns out that you are incapable of winning the Emperor's favor, and in the end, you have to blame your 'birth'!"
Rong promised to curl up his shoulders slightly and did not dare to say anything more.
Ulanara looked at her cowardly look, and a feeling of hatred arose in his heart.
She stood up and walked to the Wanzi Kang. Just as she was about to sit down, she suddenly thought of the rules in the Shengjing Palace. One cannot be a human being on the Western Kang, and it must be enshrined as a god. So she walked back and poked her face with the toe of her shoe.
He promised to hold his hand on the ground and scolded in a low voice: "Get up!"
Rong promised to stand up, and saw the queen staring at a wisp of sinking cigarette in the corner of Qingning Palace, and said in a very soft voice: "I think back then, there were people with your background in the previous palace... It was not impossible."
Rong promised to raise his head and said with a pale face: "Queen!"
Ulanara lowered his head and looked at her, slightly raised his eyebrows, and said: "I still say the same thing - just follow Concubine Chen's appearance and follow the gourd and gourd. When she is always here, so is it.
She has mediocre qualifications, but in front of the emperor, she always has a temperament that is neither humble nor arrogant - whether it is a pretense or her nature... in short, the emperor is like this."
Rong Yingying lowered his head and said nothing, but thought in his heart: The people in this harem are either too "humble" or too "arrogant".
For example, when facing the emperor, it is difficult for her not to become nervous and panicked because of the emperor's natural majesty.
Think again about Concubine Chen.
When she was Chang Zai, she was ill for a long time and had no favor, and was ignored and bullied by everyone.
As a result, the emperor took the initiative and summoned Linxing.
If you were someone else, why wouldn't you want to grasp this life-saving straw?
Ji Changzai must have thought so too.
Maybe at that time, she wasn't necessarily determined to be favored, but at least...she definitely wanted to live!
But at that time, despite the pressure, she was able to deal with it calmly in front of the emperor.
If a person's mind is not clear enough and he cannot clearly see what is "humble" and what is "high", how can he be neither humble nor arrogant?
Based on this alone, we cannot say that Concubine Chen has "mediocre qualifications".
