The daily strike of the favored concubine [qing]

Want to do something unique?

Yunqin sneered, this is really a big hat.

The Manchus value more children and more blessings, let alone the royal family?Doting alone has always been the most taboo existence in the palace, and it is also the thing that the empress dowager hates the most.

Back then, when Empress Xiaoxian Dong E was present, the first emperor didn't even look at the other concubines. Dong E was the only favorite, and the rest of the palaces became desolate cold palaces.With her death, the late emperor's heart also died. He no longer worked diligently in government affairs, and he didn't care about the evaluation of the world. He was obsessed with Buddhism and wanted to become a monk.

The first emperor died of illness at a young age, and it is hard to say that there is no reason for Dong E's family.

Decades have passed, although the Empress Dowager is old and no longer intervenes in the palace affairs, but her prestige is still there, the emperor respects her, is filial to her, and does not allow others to be disobedient.

If the word "single favorite" came out, if the Empress Dowager recalled the matter of the previous emperor and felt angry towards Yikun Palace, it would be difficult for Yunxiu to please her.

She was just out of confinement, and she had just been overturned the green card, so someone couldn't help it?

"...Where is the only favorite?" Yunxiu put down the teacup and said in a low voice, "I have little luck and courage, so I can't bear this kind of 'praise'."

If you haven't made a movie yet, give her the title of the only favorite.Next time, are you going to scold her for being a evil concubine?

"That's the reason." Concubine Cheng nodded slowly, and said softly: "In the past, the empress was pregnant and couldn't go to bed. The emperor was still thinking about it. Now that you are well, I also know what will happen in the future. They are in a hurry. I'm afraid too!"

She was originally not loved by the emperor, but she was finally given some favors, and she was to be taken back, who would accept it?They couldn't wait to pour sewage, intending to reduce Yifei's family.

In the past, when Concubine Cheng was still a concubine, she could often hear young masters gathering together, occasionally talking about Yifei Empress, with endless longing in their words.

Not to mention children, but in terms of doting, Concubine Yi is the most confident woman in the harem.In the past month, the emperor has rested in Yikun Palace for at least ten days, and I don't know how many people's eyes are envied!

Concubine Cheng watched, now, the emperor loves Concubine Yi more and more.

At Brother Jiu's full moon ceremony, the emperor cut off Concubine An's words in front of everyone, praising Concubine Yi for her beauty, almost all the empresses and young masters changed their expressions.

This kind of blatant preference has penetrated into their culprit!

Concubine Cheng took the expressions of Concubine Ping and the others into his eyes, and moved his fingers slightly.

With only one concubine seat vacant, the minds of all the concubines became active, and they could not return to the peace of the past; there were also a few nobles who, relying on the birth of an heir, also wanted to suppress the concubine Yi's arrogance... just when they were sensitive Sometimes, coupled with some people's instigation, the jealousy can no longer be contained.

Although they kept the Xianfu Palace where Concubine Cheng lived, there is no impenetrable wall in the world.When dinner was approaching, Yinyou slipped into the imperial garden to play, and when he got into the bushes to pick wild flowers, he just heard the palace people passing by whispering indistinctly: "Please empress dowager... deal with Concubine Yi..."

Looking at their backs, they were going to Ping Concubine's Chuxiu Palace.

The seventh elder brother Yinyou has reached the age of remembering things, and he knows the way to the harem.In recent months, he was often taken by Concubine Cheng to Ningshou Palace to play, and Concubine Cheng ordered him many times, saying, Concubine Yi is kind to Er Niang, and she should get closer to Yikun Palace, understand?

Yinyou nodded heavily, he likes to play with Fifth Brother.

Because of his lameness, he was naturally shy and somewhat inferior, but he was exceptionally keen in observation and had a good memory.Yinyou could listen to Er Niang's words, and quietly memorized what the maid said, and tried hard to learn it for Concubine Cheng after returning to the palace.

Concubine Cheng was grateful for the kindness of Yunxiu's promotion, and hurriedly came to pay his respects early the next morning.After briefly explaining the situation, Cheng Concubine said in a low voice: "I don't know if the Imperial Concubine and Concubine Hui are involved. Fortunately, Yinyou listened to a few words..."

Yunxiu's eyes froze for a moment, and then they relaxed again.After a while, her peach blossom eyes were stained with a smile, she turned her head to look at Elder Brother Qi who was lying beside the bed teasing Yinzhen, and said softly: "Xiao Qi has made a great contribution this time."

After finishing speaking, she patted Chengbi's hand and said softly, "I will remember your love."

Concubine Cheng smiled warmly when she heard the words, and shook her head slightly: "I should say that! It's just a report, not as good as the kindness your empress gave me in case."

Over the years, the emperor has a father-son affection for Yinyou, but he is far less important than other elder brothers.

In the past, living in Yonghe Palace, the 'virtuous' concubine De deliberately played down the existence of Yinyou, not wanting him to take away the emperor's pity and love for the sixth elder brother, so she resorted to some tricks.

Seeing this, Cheng Concubine was heartbroken and helpless.She has no favor and no right, so what can she do?I had to admit my fate early.

As long as Yinyou grows up safely, she doesn't expect anything extravagantly, but suddenly, the situation in the harem changed, and the situation of their mother and child improved a lot.

She became the head of the Xianfu Palace, but the concubine De was reduced to a concubine...

Because of Concubine Yi's instructions, the fifth elder brother often played with Yinyou, and with the prince's care from time to time, Yinyou gradually appeared in front of the emperor, and Xianfu Palace also received several rewards.

For Concubine Cheng, Yinyou is her life.Leaving aside the matter of promotion, the Guo Luoluo family's unique recipe for correcting foot disease sent by Concubine Yi is enough to make her desperately repay her.

Yun Qin pursed her lips and smiled, and nodded at her: "You..."

The next day, Yuqing Palace.

Today is a rare day to go to the study for a holiday, the prince got up a little later than usual, and leisurely spread out a copy of "Sun Tzu's Art of War" on the table to study.

"The profit lures it, the disorder takes it..." The prince thought about it, and then he started to think about it, and after a while, he wrote on the paper for a long time.

He Zhu'er came quickly from outside, probed his head for a few breaths, and stopped by the window, not daring to disturb his master who was studying and practicing calligraphy.

"What's the matter?" The prince glanced out the window, put down his pen, and asked loudly.

He Zhu'er whispered: "Report to the crown prince, Mr. Suo has sent someone to deliver something."

The prince said "Oh" and waved his hands, but his eyes still did not leave the page: "Bring it in."

……

"Slave Suo Mao pays respects to the crown prince." The visitor was slightly fat, with a shrewd and rich appearance.His name is Suo Mao, he works as a member of the Ministry of Officials in the imperial court, and he is also a confidant who runs around for Suo'etu.

The prince looked up at him, saw that he was a familiar person, and smiled slightly: "Excuse me, get up."

"Thank you, Prince." Suo Mao straightened up and said with a smile, "Just now, Lord Zhongtang was summoned by the emperor and couldn't get away, so he called his servants to pay his respects and present something along the way."

As he spoke, he was carried into a huge screen.

The prince finally got his attention, put down the book, and looked at it curiously.

The screen is exquisite in workmanship and made of high-quality huanghuali; on the gauze surface, a very realistic blue peacock is embroidered, raising its head and singing high, making it look like taking off, with colorful lights and sparkling tail feathers, lifelike.

What's even more amazing is that this screen is embroidered on both sides. When you look around, you can see several red plums standing in the courtyard, either budding or brightly blooming, standing proudly like a painting.

Whether it's workmanship or implication, they are all excellent, and the prince fell in love with it at a glance.

"Master Zhongtang said that this screen has cost a lot of painstaking efforts, and if it is given to His Highness, it will be given to the future princess and concubine." Suo Mao said, "Does Your Highness still like it?"

Hearing this, the prince was slightly uncomfortable.

Princess?

Uncle's granduncle really thinks long-term, he is only in his early ten years old, and he doesn't know what year and month it will be when he gets married...

However, in all fairness, this screen is really beautiful.

The prince looked at it, his heart filled with joy, he smiled and nodded: "Gu likes it very much, thank you uncle and grandpa on behalf of Gu."

Yesterday he went to Yikun Palace to hug Xiaojiu, but Xiaojiu was so naughty, she turned her head to hide from his embrace, kicked and scratched to the side, and directly scratched the flower and bird screen that Yi'eniang liked.

Tsk, since grabbing Huang Ama's dragon face, the ninth younger brother stretched out his clutches to Yi'eniang's beloved. Afterwards, although the ninth younger brother learned a lesson, Yi'eniang's screen was also destroyed.

Uncle's gift was just right, like the timely rain!Send it to Yikun Palace tomorrow, Yi'eniang will definitely like it.

The prince was thinking about it secretly, at this moment, Suo Mao bowed slightly, and said with a smile on his face: "As long as the prince likes it, it is not in vain for the concubine Ping to put all her thought into it."

"..." The prince paused, "Concubine Ping?"

"That's right." Suo Mao said, "Ms. Concubine Ping embroidered a screen for you, and sent it to the mansion a few days ago, thinking of adding a gift to the crown prince during the wedding. Master Zhongtang doesn't think so! Keep things for a long time It's old, it's old. Send it to Yuqing Palace earlier so that His Highness can enjoy it, right?"

The rules of the harem are strict, and only with the permission of the emperor, can the wives be summoned if they are above the rank of concubine, but not for the rank of concubine.Like concubine Ping, she does not have the right to deliver things to Yuqing Palace, and has to go around through the family.

——Listen carefully, these words have a deep meaning.

The prince was still smiling, the curve of his mouth remained the same, he just said: "Gu knows... I also thank Concubine Ping for Gu."

After Suo Mao left, the prince's smile faded, he paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, and glanced at the screen standing in the middle from time to time.

Concubine Ping was only seven years younger than him, and she was a concubine that Eniang had never met.If he is not a compatriot of the same mother, he cannot be regarded as his biological aunt, so what is the relationship between them?

... He shouldn't have thought so.

Concubine Ping was always surnamed Hesheli, and when she got well, the Hesheli family would go a step further, and my uncle would be more handy in the court.

But she was full of scheming, scheming against the Ministry of Internal Affairs, scheming against the fifth younger brother, Yi'eniang told him all of this.

"The emperor hates her, one concubine is enough." Yunxiu said softly, "Don't blame me for cutting her back, none of those who attack Xiao Wu can escape."

At that time, the prince thought, what Yi'eniang did was right, but she was still kind.

If it were him, he would retaliate even harder!

How vicious is the person who lays hands on children?

The prince looked at the screen, his mind was confused, with a slight sarcasm, he couldn't tell what he was feeling at this moment.He suddenly said: "He Zhu'er, call Hu Ming and Hu Guang in."

Hu Ming and Hu Guang were Suo'etu's cronies who were sent to the palace. They worked beside the prince, maintained his relationship with his mother's family, and passed on many news for Suo'etu.

Upon hearing the summons, the two quickly stepped over the threshold, knelt down and kowtowed: "My servant, please greet the crown prince."

The prince stared at them, suddenly felt a little irritable, pursed his lips, and there were many inexplicable things in his clear eyes.

"What did your uncle tell you about Concubine Ping?" The crown prince asked calmly without shouting.

Caught off guard, Hu Ming and Hu Guangda were taken aback, and immediately lost their minds: "Prince, slave, slave..."

Same place, same master and servant.Last time, the crown prince ordered them in the same way, not to tell Suo'etu anything about Yikun Palace.

Hu Ming and Hu Guang faced the prestige of the prince directly, and for the first time understood what a nobleman is, and he couldn't think of resistance at all, mixed with the fear of dying, he honestly followed the prince's words.

For a ten-year-old child to have such an aura, Mr. Bisuo is even more frightening.In a few years, what will it be like? !

They gradually realized that there is only one master in Yuqing Palace, and that is His Highness the Crown Prince.

This time, the prince asked directly, it was a temptation and a threat.

Forcing them to make a choice-should they choose Lord Suo who is outside the palace, or choose a serious master to show their loyalty?

Now that he has entered Yuqing Palace, he has to serve His Highness for the rest of his life, and he can't go back no matter what.Mr. Ke Suo...

They were suddenly caught in a dilemma.

Before they could figure it out, the prince squinted his eyes, "Drag on..."

"Prince, please forgive me! This servant said, this servant will just say it." Hu Ming kowtowed again and again, trembling and whispered back, "Master Suo ordered this servant to find an opportunity to persuade you, and let you use a small trick... Long live Lord, concubine Ping and Niangniang are listed as concubines."

The prince thought in his heart, sure enough.

He lowered his eyes and asked with an unchanged expression: "And then?"

"Then..." Hu Ming lost his voice and got stuck for a while.

Master Suo had given these instructions regarding Concubine Ping, and he looked at Hu Guang for help, what else?

Hu Guang looked at him and racked his brains for a long time.

Seeing that the crown prince became more and more impatient, Hu Guang became anxious, and a flash of light flashed in his mind, and hurriedly said: "In addition to Concubine Ping, Master Suo also said that Concubine Wu is nothing to worry about, only one imperial concubine...he let The servants pass on the news about the imperial concubine, the more detailed the better, and she must not be allowed to reach out to Yuqing Palace."

This was unexpected.

The prince was stunned for a moment, why did the imperial concubine get involved again?

The imperial concubine has lost her real power, and she no longer has the glory of the past. She gradually keeps a low profile. How can her uncle be so caring?

Also, the phrase "Wubi is nothing to worry about"...

The prince turned around to look at the lifelike double-sided embroidery, and suddenly his heart felt cold, as if a big hole had been punctured, letting the wind leak in the cold night.

He clenched his fists slowly.

At the same time, the Compassion Ning Palace.

"Old Ancestor, four ladies, Concubine An, Concubine Jing, Concubine Xi, and Concubine Ping, are begging to see you. They say they have important matters to report to you. Please give me some advice." Aunt Su Ma tucked the brocade on the couch for the Empress Dowager By, whispered.

"Important matter?" The Empress Dowager opened her eyes, pondered for a moment, and asked the Empress Dowager next to her, "What do you think they are looking for instead of the Emperor, and why are they looking for Aijia?"

The Empress Dowager smiled and replied in Mongolian: "Maybe the Empress Dowager will know if she asks?"

The Empress Dowager sat up straight, waved her hands, "Xuan."

After An Concubine and the others entered the inner hall, they greeted each other with soft voices and respect, and then took their seats one by one.

They looked at each other, and the most handsome concubine was a little impatient, and spoke first: "Ancestor, concubines shouldn't bother you, but..."

Before the words were finished, the sound of "Greetings to Empress Yifei" came from outside the hall.

In an instant, Yunxiu's laughing voice cut off Xi Concubine's words: "Old Ancestor, they are here to sue the concubine. They want to say that the concubine is favored by the emperor and should be severely punished—"
