[Comprehensive] Cannon Fodder Terminator
Chapter 244 - The 26th Cannon Fodder -
Before the start of construction, Taomi asked Mimi to go to the field to explore, mark some places with large rocks, and then bypass them during construction, so that they can relax when they start construction.
There are also some dangerous areas that are not suitable for digging ditches, and they can be avoided in advance to avoid unnecessary casualties. Mimi’s professional skills are still very reliable. Using him for analysis, Taomi is very relieved.
"After talking for a long time, you still use me. I thought your conscience had discovered it." Mimi hugged her chest and sat on Taomi's shoulders, "To be honest, I don't think your method is very effective, don't you When digging a ditch, you're digging a river, and you know it's really inappropriate for you to do that."
"I know." How could she not know the disadvantages of doing this, not to mention the pressure from the imperial court, just say that the amount of work is very large, and no one knows what problems will happen when digging.
In this era, there are not so many large-scale tools, and some are just shovels in the hands of the people. Digging a ditch is tantamount to a foolish old man moving mountains.
"You know? You know and still do this?" Mimi really wants to dig Taomi's head open to see what's inside? "If you want me to say, I will give you two dry ice bombs, and I will throw them from the sky when it is not raining, and everyone will be happy."
Taomi grabbed Mimi's wings, "That's why I need you."
"Hey, I just made some dry ice here, can I give it to you now?" Mimi smiled and moved his round body like a tennis ball uncomfortably. Coincidentally, the clothes he is wearing now are still green of.
"I want you to help me dig the ditch." Taomi let go of her hand, poured a cup of tea and put it on the table, "Before they go, you break up all the things inside, so that when they dig It can be more convenient."
Mimi put the lid on the teapot, "Why? And I don't know how to dig ditches. Look at my small body, how can I dig a river?"
"You can, for us to go home as soon as possible."
Suddenly Mimi seemed to think of something, turned around, and the crystal ball was already in his arms, looked at the crystal ball, and then recalled the previous photos of the crystal ball, and said in surprise, "How did you found?"
"I had this idea a long time ago, but it has never been proven." Taomi shrugged, "Try to prove it, there is nothing that cannot be proved by time."
Compared with the original crystal ball, the big one has become more than one degree transparent, Taomi can vaguely see what is inside, but this idea needs more time to be confirmed.
Mimi happily found Taomi’s way to do it. Taomi looked at the crystal ball. In this world, the crystal ball is already translucent, which means she still has tasks to complete.
Through several worlds, she found that as long as she changed the fate of more cannon fodder, the changes in the big crystal ball would be more obvious.
It was agreed at the beginning that she would travel through time and become cannon fodder, but in a world, besides the heroine, there are many cannon fodder. After all, this is a real world, and the fate of a passerby may be the life of cannon fodder.
What she wants to change is not only the person she crossed over to become cannon fodder, but also many people who have encountered injustice. They are all cannon fodder.
In fact, this meaning was only gradually understood by her after she came to this world. In the last world, she was a lawyer and fought lawsuits all her life. The energy she gained can be said to be the sum of several previous worlds.
And it was only when she came to this world from the last world that she really understood this truth.
Winter goes to spring, spring is over, and summer is coming soon.
The emperor was still in June, a group of people came to Yuanmingyuan to escape the summer heat, but this time was different from the last time, the empress did not follow.
It is also miraculous to say that the empress has already been poisoned by herself, but she is still living a popular life in Chuxiu Palace. The imperial doctor visits her regularly, and I am afraid that she will not be able to end for the time being.
Taomi is still the highest ranking concubine in the harem, and with the third elder brother, in the harem, there is no opponent who can go down. For such a situation, it is not in vain that she spent so much effort to bring down the queen up.
"Ruyue, I'm very pleased that you can think about the queen." The emperor teased the third elder brother in Baochan's arms, showing a gratified smile.
He is a prince who came out of the harem, and his mother was from the harem, so how could he not know what happened in the harem? But as an emperor, compared with the affairs of the court, the affairs of the harem can only be regarded as trivial After dealing with the affairs of the court, he didn't bother to ask about the affairs of the harem.
As long as it doesn't hurt the root, it doesn't matter who wins or loses. Anyway, in the Forbidden City, there is no permanent winner. When the winner wins, he can show tolerance, whether it comes from the heart or on the surface Yes, it is a kind of generosity.
But the empress is now a deposed empress, and it is a taboo topic in the palace. No one dared to bring it up for a year. Now that Taomi asks, it should not be an act of generosity.
The emperor nodded secretly, "Ruyue, it's a pity that you can't enter the palace now because of the third elder brother. Otherwise, with you helping me take care of the harem, it would have been more relaxed for me."
"The emperor was joking. Ruyue is just a noble concubine, but she absolutely dare not take the power to manage the harem."
"Then I will make you queen now, then Ruyue, you can manage the harem." The emperor's words were both a joke and a test.
Tao Mi smiled, "Your Majesty, please don't say that again. Ruyue's ambition has never been to be a queen. In the Yuanmingyuan for more than a year, Ruyue has learned a lot of Buddhist teachings. Regarding those things, she just finds them boring. Your servant The concubine is still thinking that the third elder brother can return to the palace in the future, and continue to ask for orders to stay in the Yuanmingyuan. As for the management of the harem that the emperor said, it is better to ask someone else to be wise. I heard that the emperor has recently acquired a few noble concubines. I don’t know what to do ? Ruyue has never seen her before."
"Ordinary people, of course, it's not as good as Ruyue, you win my heart."
How could Niu Hulu Ruyue have no expectations for the queen? What the women in the harem want is the queen's chair.
She is the one who has no expectations for the queen. Since she came to this world, all she wants is the chair under the emperor's ass.
And if the latter was offered to her, she would naturally not refuse, after all, she was the only queen, and if something happened in the future, the third elder brother would be the eldest son of the middle palace, so everything would just go with the flow.
Judging by the way the emperor looks at her now, it seems that her refusal and welcome are very useful.
However, this method can only be used once, and if it is used too much, what should I do if it is regarded as a real rejection?
The concubines who followed in the palace were not good, but most of them were below the rank of concubine, and the concubine was just a concubine Chen. Looking at Concubine Chen's delicate appearance, Tao Mi remembered that this is the one in the plot who was given by the original owner. The dead concubine.
Later, it was rumored in the palace that Concubine Chen was unwilling to come back to seek revenge from the original owner. The original owner did not have any fear, but said domineeringly, "Maybe I can't fight even if I die and become a ghost, can I win?" '
It makes sense when you think about it, you can't fight in life, and you become a ghost in death, everything is empty, and naturally you can't do anything.
"What is your empress doing looking at Concubine Chen like this? Could it be that she is also admiring Concubine Chen's beauty? Concubine Chen's beauty has been praised even by the emperor." A newly promoted nobleman said with a smile on the side.
Tao Mi smiled and looked at her without saying a word. The old man who had served in the palace for a long time knew that someone was going to be in trouble when he saw Tao Mi's smile, and the person who was going to be in trouble was obviously Xin Gui who had just flattered Concubine Chen .
Everyone in the world knows that Concubine Ru is beautiful|glamorous, and there are few women in the world who can match her. However, this Xin Guiren took advantage of the time when Concubine Ru was away from the palace, and now he said this because he wanted to flatter Concubine Chen, who was highly favored. Obviously he didn't want to let himself have a good life.
Concubine Ru has been away from the palace for more than a year, but she is still able to bring down the queen, and the emperor still loves her a lot, which is enough to show that she is not an unknown person. When Concubine Ru was still Concubine Ru, they were not without vicious methods seen.
And this Xin Guiren, who was favored by the new nobles, didn't know Ru Guifei's means and power before, and thought that the emperor let her and the third elder brother come here, which meant that he was not favored. Now he blindly flatters Concubine Chen and offends the real nobleman.
The air was suddenly quiet, Xin Guiren obviously realized something, looked at Taomi timidly and said, "Mother, did the concubine say something wrong?"
"Xin Gui is talented, so how could he say the wrong thing." Tao Mi lazily leaned back on the chair, stretched out her hand and looked at her armor, her appearance was very careless.
"Concubine Chen is indeed beautiful, but the emperor did not tell me about it, so I don't know that Concubine Chen's beauty is unrivaled in the palace. From this we can see that her beauty is also a result of comparison. After all, it’s just fish eyes, but compared with the stones on Shiyue Road, fish eyes are naturally considered good.”
"Your words are good, Mr. Xin, you should be rewarded."
Tao Mi's words can be said to have said to Concubine Chen, Xin Guiren and even everyone in the harem. She wanted to compare her beauty with her, not to mention that the original owner was a beautiful person. With careful maintenance, the appearance is even better than before.
"Bao Chan, go and reward Xin Gui with the branch of the palace to announce the good news. It just so happens that there is a pearl inlaid on this gold hairpin. I hope Xin Gui can open his eyes and take a closer look. What kind of talent is it?" Pearls are called treasures. As a woman of the emperor, don’t just use pearls as fish eyes all the time. It’s fine to talk about it in front of this palace. It would be bad for the emperor's face."
Xin Gui fell to the ground and took the gold hairpin from Baochan, "Concubine, concubine, thank you for your reward, I will definitely not do such things in the future, please rest assured."
At the end, Xin Guiren also stabilized his mind, took the gold hairpin, stood up with the support of the maid, and sat on her original seat, no longer smiling like before, she dared not speak anymore up.
The pressure just passed down from above was something she had never experienced in front of the emperor.
In front of the emperor, she was blindly trying to be sweet and obedient. Every time the emperor saw her, he would laugh out loud. This was the first time she encountered such a thing after entering the palace.
While lamenting that a noble concubine is a noble concubine, she also has a deep fear. In the Forbidden City, the ranks are vacant, and the highest ranks are the few concubines, and Chen Concubine is the most favored. She thought that hugging Chen Concubine would be equivalent to Entered the most stable camp in the harem, now it seems that Concubine Chen is still too weak.
Why does Xin Gui think that Concubine Chen is weak? During the whole process, Concubine Chen sat beside her without saying a word, as if the whole thing had nothing to do with her. Even Tao Mi compared her to Yumu, She just kept her head down and said nothing.
Whether it's because of scheming and prudence to protect oneself, or because of fear of not being able to speak out, all the concubines who are working can see that she is not a good comrade-in-arms, and a leader who does not protect her subordinates is not a good leader either. leader.
If she doesn't make a sound, will Taomi let her go like this?
There is a saying called 'why do women make things difficult for women'.But if you are in the first day of junior high school, don't blame me for being in the fifteenth day.
Others think that Concubine Chen is only afraid of her so she doesn't come out to protect the noble lady, but Taomi is the closest to her, and she knows the aura around her best. When Xin Guiren was afraid, she still showed joyful emotions.
Why is she happy?
That's because Xin Gui is the new favorite, and she is just an 'old man'. If the 'old man' is embarrassing the 'new favorite' at this time, and the harem is fighting for favor, the emperor has always been towards him. At this moment, the possibility of Taomi's victory is not No big deal, that's what she wanted to see.
"Concubine Chen, I really haven't heard the words about your beauty from the emperor. I think the emperor has reunited with me for a long time and forgot. I will ask after the emperor and the courtiers have discussed. If Concubine Chen is really beautiful , but you should have a title that matches your beauty."
Whether a woman is beautiful or not, I have to ask a man, this question, these words, are problematic from beginning to end.
If there is a problem with the previous words, it will be picked out, but if there is a problem with the latter, then it is the real problem. Everyone is silent, waiting for Chen Fei's next words.
"The concubine dare not claim to be beautiful in front of the empress. With the empress's pearl in front of her, how can the concubine Yumu be compared with the empress? So please don't bother me."
Taomi said Yumu, so she called herself Yumu, and kept her posture low enough.
Originally, I thought that Taomi would be satisfied with this answer, but unexpectedly Taomi looked over, "Didn't Xingui just say that the emperor praised your beauty? Concubine Chen, you are now comparing yourself to a fish eye. Said that the emperor's eyes are clumsy, and let a fish eye be his concubine?"
"Young concubine, empress, what the concubine said is the truth. During the Dragon Boat Festival in May, the concubine did hear the emperor praise Chen Concubine's beauty. The concubine definitely did not lie. Many concubines were present and heard it , and ask the empress to disturb the concubine." Xin Guiren suddenly knelt down in front of Taomi and cried.
Looking at this appearance, it seems that he has been quite surprised.
Originally, after Tao Mi said those words, Xin Guiren admitted that he was flattering Concubine Chen, at most it was just forming a clique, but now that Xin Guiren said this, it was Chen Concubine who questioned the emperor's vision.
It is common to form cliques in the harem, but not everyone can afford to question the emperor.
Concubine Chen was originally a Han Chinese, neither from the Eight Banners of Manchuria, nor from the Han Army Banners, she was just the lady of a wealthy businessman whom the emperor met when he came out of the palace.
"Your Majesty, the concubine never questioned the Emperor's intentions, but the concubine made a mistake, and please forgive me." Concubine Chen also learned to be smart, and immediately apologized.
Looking at the two people kneeling in front, they are not simple characters. The Forbidden City is getting more and more lively. There is no queen, and there are concubines rising one after another. I believe that she will not be too boring when she returns to the palace in half a year.
"I haven't said anything yet, why are Concubine Chen and Mrs. Xin Gui guilty?" Tao Mi softened her expression and said relaxedly.
"Baochan, help Concubine Chen and Xin Guiren get up, and serve them two cups of calming tea."
"Yes."
The turmoil here had already spread before the concubine left. Apart from feeling that Taomi was even more difficult to mess with, everyone also mourned in silence for Concubine Chen and Mrs. Xin.
"Aunt Anxi, I know you are serving Mrs. Xin Gui now, but don't think too much about it. You're fine. If the imperial concubine doesn't have any real evidence, I won't do anything to her."
"Su Ying, I'm not worried about Xin Gui, I just sigh." An Xi sat on a rock in the rockery, looking up at the sky.
"What are you lamenting?" Su Ying had just entered the palace, so she didn't know many things very well. The one who treated her best in the palace was An Qian, and they were from the same town, so she trusted An Xi very much.
An Xi smiled, and the smile was a little relieved, "I just sigh, some people are born to be the kind of person favored by God, like a noble concubine, who has been out of the palace for more than a year, but the palace is still With her legend, we can often hear what the emperor said about Ru Guifei."
"That's right, Concubine Ru really seems to be favored by the heavens. She is smart and beautiful and has a high status. She gave birth to a third elder brother and has been favored by the emperor for many years. It is really enviable."
Seeing Suying's longing look, Anxi slapped her on the head, "Silly girl, don't dream, how long have you just entered the palace, Ru Guifei is now a beautiful woman, but when the Chuxiu Palace is still the queen , if the imperial concubine is to be favored by the emperor again, she will always be a concubine, so if she sees the empress, she should ask Ann to salute her."
"She is like us. She walks on thin ice every step she takes in the palace. If she takes a wrong step, she will be killed because of the emperor's love for her." An Qian put Su Ying's hair scattered in front of her. Behind the ear, "So Su Ying, don't envy anyone's life, even if you are as high as the emperor, you still have to worry about family and country affairs every day, be yourself, leave the palace when you are old, and save enough dowry to say Maybe you can still marry a good family, even if you don't marry someone, then you have to live a good life."
"But aunt, I just entered the palace, and it will take many years before I can go out."
"Don't worry, as long as you live well, every day you look forward to will come."
Su Ying nodded earnestly, and smiled, her eyes completed the crescent shape, making the originally not very attractive appearance a little more vivid, making people feel a strong sense of vitality just by looking at it.
Therefore, the most beautiful thing in this world is hope, and those who work hard for it with hope are the most beautiful.
When the concubines came out of Yongshou Hall, no one said anything about this matter, as if it had never happened at all. In fact, nothing happened at all, right?
As for Concubine Chen and Xin Guiren, Tao Mi noticed that these two people are not simple roles.
In the original book, although Concubine Chen was killed by the original owner, she is not a simple character. After she died, someone could fabricate rumors of "wronged souls claiming her life" for her in the palace, if it wasn't because the original owner was a People who don't believe in ghosts and gods, I'm afraid they will really be killed by this unwarranted "spirit".
There is also Xin Gui, who seems to be flattering Concubine Chen, but it is not known how much flattery she has in her heart. She can even adjust her position when she is "furious", even for the sake of "saying" To be honest, she didn't hesitate to offend Concubine Chen, which shows her scheming.
At the same time, in the Forbidden City, in Chuxiu Palace.
The queen looked at Sun Baiyang who was treating her in front of the bed, and slowly withdrew her hand, "Master Sun should know, how is my illness?"
"Wei Chen knows."
The emperor was still thinking of some affection, and did not let the empress leave it alone, and let the imperial doctor of the imperial hospital take care of her condition. The emperor thought it was thinking of the affection of the past, but he didn't know that this was just a knife and a knife. In the heart of the waste.
The queen who was proclaimed by you was abolished by you. Now there is someone here pretending to find a doctor for her, whoever it is, it is not so easy to accept.
"I'm just a criminal woman imprisoned in the Chuxiu Palace. Master Sun doesn't need to be polite in front of me." The queen sighed, looking at the layers of bed curtains, everything from yesterday was gone, "here In the harem, it's easy to die, and no one will know about it quietly, and even if they know, they won't care."
"But I want to live, because only by living can I see the fate of my enemies with my own eyes, and see how they are trapped in a cocoon step by step."
"If you have nothing else to do, I will take my leave first."
Sun Baiyang is not taken seriously in the imperial hospital now, so he was sent to take care of this person. He didn't want to be involved in the disputes in the harem, so naturally he didn't want to listen to what the queen said.
"Fuya." Just as Sun Baiyang walked to the door, Empress Fei suddenly said, "Nalan Fuya, does Master Sun really not care?"
"you……"
"I know all the things between you and Nalan Fuya. Since Mr. Sun is worried, why don't you work hard? As long as you get Niu Hulu Ruyue off, I can help you and Nalan Fuya go far away."
The conditions after the abolition cannot be said to be unattractive|people, Sun Baiyang admits that he is worried about Fuya in his heart, but it has nothing to do with love, and some are just the feelings of his confidant, what he thinks is that since Fuya lives in this palace unhappy , then he can find a way to take her out of the palace.
As a confidant, die without regret.
But the problem now is that Fuya doesn't want to leave the palace, even if she lives here not well, and she is exhausted physically and mentally, she is not willing to leave.
Her only family member is Xu Wantian, now that Xu Wantian is dead, and his wife has gone to nowhere, Fuya is out of the palace, and there is nowhere for women to survive, so it is better to stay in the palace.
"I appreciate your kindness, but I really don't understand what you are talking about. We are just acquainted with Fugui, and there is absolutely no feeling similar to 'can't let go'. Please take good care of your illness." Well, Weichen will come back tomorrow for a pulse check, so I'll take my leave first."
The abandoned Empress Niu Hulu who was lying on the bed watched Sun Baiyang leave, closed the door, and sat up. Although her face was still a little pale, her eyes were very fierce.
The centipede is dead but not stiff, you all look down on her too much, no matter what you have been the queen for so many years, she was knocked down by carelessness, as long as she doesn't die, she will fight forever.
Niu Hulu Ruyue, Sun Baiyang, let's ride a donkey to watch the flowers.
He took out a dark pouch without any patterns from under the pillow, took out a pill from it, and stuffed it into his mouth. After a while, the paleness on her face disappeared, and it turned into a kind of rosy, but this kind of rosy, No matter how you look at it, it is sick, not the kind of healthy pink.
Niu Hulu also lay down, his face revealed a kind of comfort, as if he had already possessed the most beautiful|wonderful thing in the world.
I am inferior to others and lost, but so what, if you didn't put me to death, then I still have a chance to do it again.
After becoming waste, he was poisoned by himself, as if his life had come to an end.
The poison was poisoned by her, so is it impossible for her to have an antidote?
Niu Hulu is like Yue, you will lose, and you will lose completely. Since you are soft-hearted and did not put me to death, then wait for my death and then live again.
When Sun Baiyang came out of Chuxiu Palace, he suddenly felt chills down his spine. He looked back at the signboard of Chuxiu Palace. The person who lived here was once the most honorable woman in the harem, but now, some of them were just a waste empress. Delusion to get out of here.
Maybe what she wanted was not to get out of here, but to take revenge on that woman, but would she succeed?
In his opinion, she will not succeed, because that woman is not only unfathomable, but also cynical. In the harem, everyone wants to climb up, only her, and she doesn't care at all.
In this harem, there seemed to be nothing worthy of her concern, and what happened to the queen had nothing to do with her.
She looked at everything in this palace as if she was watching a juggling show, watching how these people fought to the death for a better life, watching how they used their own means to fight for favor.
If she is interested, she can participate. If she is not interested, in order to save trouble, she will catch all these people, so as not to cause future troubles for herself. Xu Wantian is the best example.
Thinking of this, Sun Baiyang smiled miserably. He still has time to evaluate others here. If he has time, he might as well go and see his medical skills. After his medical skills are good, even if he is not working as an imperial physician in the palace, he can still set up a medical shed.
In a place Sun Baiyang didn't see, a little eunuch quietly approached Chuxiu Palace from a small path, and entered through the side door, still holding something in his hand, looking like a thief.
In the Qing Dynasty, since the emergence of Tianli Sect, many people believed in Tianli Sect more and more, and they did not go to the court for anything, but instead went to the Tianli Sect people.
Originally, if there was a drought or flood or natural and man-made disasters, the first thing the people thought of was to go to the yamen. No matter the drought or flood, they went to the yamen, and the yamen reported it. Not many, but every household has plenty of oil and water in their hands, and the common people can't complain even if they have any complaints.
And since the appearance of Tianli Sect, they gave out porridge for free. Although there was not much porridge given out, at least they could guarantee two bowls a day, so that they would not starve to death.
I don't know who made a statistic. In the past, in a village of [-] households, after a year of no crops, the number of people who died from eating government relief food was [-]% more than the number of people who died from eating porridge from the Tianli sect.
In this way, it goes without saying who is really thinking about the common people.
In the past, every time the common people had disputes, they would go to the yamen and ask the county magistrate to take charge, but now, the people from the local Tianli religion were asked to judge.
Eight times out of ten, the people of Tianli Sect were able to resolve such matters peacefully, and both parties were very satisfied. There was no need to be so rigid with Bo Gongtang, and the relationship between neighbors was greatly improved.
There are countless such things. Once or twice, the emperor can treat it as Tianli religion to solve troubles for the court, but after so many times, it is hard for him to believe that they are just helping the court to share their worries and have no other intentions.
The most irritating thing is that he didn't find out what the Tianli Sect was up to. In flood years, he led the people to dig ditches to drain water, and in drought years, he gave porridge to the people. They make sense.
Everything they do is a good thing. As the emperor, it is impossible to say that what they did was wrong.
Could it be that they threatened the prestige of a ruler by doing so?Is he still an emperor full of benevolence?
He can't be an emperor that the people don't like, but he really feels uncomfortable in his heart.
But the emperor felt uncomfortable, and the first thing he noticed was the people around him, the concubines in the harem and the courtiers who had to meet every day.
Tao Mi saw all these in her eyes and kept them in her heart. It can be said that he had such a reaction in her expectation. After all, no emperor would like his prestige and royal rights to be provoked.
A responsible emperor knows that he who wins the hearts of the people wins the world, but the most uncontrollable thing is the hearts of the people, and what he hasn't got is given to others, how can he be reconciled?
"Is the emperor sad because of the busy political affairs in the court recently?" In the Hall of Qinzheng, Concubine Chen thoughtfully came to deliver food to the emperor, just as the ministers who were discussing the matter had just left, and seeing the worried look of the emperor alone, as a favorite concubine, it was natural Care about it intimately.
He is not worried about political affairs, he is worried because there are no political affairs to do, "I have nothing to do, is there anything wrong with my concubine coming here?"
Concubine Chen smiled, "The concubine knew that she was stupid and couldn't help the emperor handle those political affairs, so she made some snacks for the emperor to taste, and hoped that the emperor would not think that the concubine's cooking skills were not as good as those of the masters in the imperial dining room."
"My concubine's ingenuity, how can I dislike it." The emperor smiled, all the wrinkles on his face came out, Concubine Chen continued to smile, "Ever since I have eaten your cooking skills, I can't eat the imperial meal Those snacks made by Fang.”
"Your majesty is joking, how can concubines be so good." Concubine Chen opened the suit, and brought out the plate, "Concubines are not as beautiful as concubines, and they don't have the ability to help the emperor manage the harem, so they can only do it." These small snacks are here to make the emperor eat more happily, be careful, and I hope the emperor will not dislike them."
After the eunuch tried the poison, the emperor also picked it up and tasted it together, "I am happy to see Ruyue, who is beautiful and beautiful, and I am also happy to be able to manage the harem in an orderly manner. I am happy to eat this dessert from my concubine, all good."
Concubine Chen couldn't help being depressed, she thought she was beautiful, she had heard that Concubine Ru was so beautiful, but she thought that since she came to Yuanmingyuan, no matter how beautiful she is, she is just a withered flower .
When she came to the Old Summer Palace, she saw Niu Hulu Ruyue, who had been rumored for a long time, and she was indeed beautiful, but she thought it was still not as beautiful as hers, especially after the incident with Xin Guiren, she thought it was Taomi who felt inferior to her. She was beautiful, and she didn't take what she said in a fit of anger.
But now, even the emperor said that, she was not born well, the only thing she can use is her own appearance, and now there are people who are more beautiful than her, how can she be reconciled?
"Your majesty, ask my concubine to give you a head massage. I used to give my father a head massage when I was at home. My father also said that it is very effective in relieving headaches." Withdrawing her thoughts, Concubine Chen laughed.
The emperor nodded, "Then let me try my concubine's skills."
Concubine Chen walked behind the emperor, took off her armor, and put her hand on the emperor's head.
Concubine Chen pressed the button, and the emperor gradually became drowsy, but his long-term vigilance kept him from falling asleep.
"Emperor? Are you asleep?"
"No, concubine Ai, do you have anything to say?"
"Your Majesty, my concubine has a question I would like to ask the Pope."
"Go ahead."
"The concubine wants to know, in the eyes of the emperor, among the concubines in the harem, is it the noble concubine who has the most outstanding appearance?"
The emperor opened his eyes, took Concubine Chen's hand and stood in front of him, "Concubine Chen, the most indispensable thing in this harem is self-knowledge. It's fine to be self-motivated, but don't think about everything that doesn't belong to you. Ruyue's appearance is naturally unparalleled in the world in my opinion, in front of her, other people can call it delicate for the time being, do you understand?"
"My concubine understands."
The emperor nodded, "Back off."
His eldest son was born to an ordinary concubine, who died early when he was young, his second son was born to the former empress, and the third son was born to the deposed empress. Now there are only three sons. The harem has always been a place where mothers are more precious than their sons. He gave birth to the third elder brother for him, and he was willing to give her such a face.
It is not comparable to those concubines who have no heirs. Concubine Chen has the ability to give birth to a prince, and he is willing to give her the same status.
As for the empress, she openly used poison in the palace, if she could do something to murder a court lady today, she would do something to murder him tomorrow, how could he not be on guard.
There are also some dangerous areas that are not suitable for digging ditches, and they can be avoided in advance to avoid unnecessary casualties. Mimi’s professional skills are still very reliable. Using him for analysis, Taomi is very relieved.
"After talking for a long time, you still use me. I thought your conscience had discovered it." Mimi hugged her chest and sat on Taomi's shoulders, "To be honest, I don't think your method is very effective, don't you When digging a ditch, you're digging a river, and you know it's really inappropriate for you to do that."
"I know." How could she not know the disadvantages of doing this, not to mention the pressure from the imperial court, just say that the amount of work is very large, and no one knows what problems will happen when digging.
In this era, there are not so many large-scale tools, and some are just shovels in the hands of the people. Digging a ditch is tantamount to a foolish old man moving mountains.
"You know? You know and still do this?" Mimi really wants to dig Taomi's head open to see what's inside? "If you want me to say, I will give you two dry ice bombs, and I will throw them from the sky when it is not raining, and everyone will be happy."
Taomi grabbed Mimi's wings, "That's why I need you."
"Hey, I just made some dry ice here, can I give it to you now?" Mimi smiled and moved his round body like a tennis ball uncomfortably. Coincidentally, the clothes he is wearing now are still green of.
"I want you to help me dig the ditch." Taomi let go of her hand, poured a cup of tea and put it on the table, "Before they go, you break up all the things inside, so that when they dig It can be more convenient."
Mimi put the lid on the teapot, "Why? And I don't know how to dig ditches. Look at my small body, how can I dig a river?"
"You can, for us to go home as soon as possible."
Suddenly Mimi seemed to think of something, turned around, and the crystal ball was already in his arms, looked at the crystal ball, and then recalled the previous photos of the crystal ball, and said in surprise, "How did you found?"
"I had this idea a long time ago, but it has never been proven." Taomi shrugged, "Try to prove it, there is nothing that cannot be proved by time."
Compared with the original crystal ball, the big one has become more than one degree transparent, Taomi can vaguely see what is inside, but this idea needs more time to be confirmed.
Mimi happily found Taomi’s way to do it. Taomi looked at the crystal ball. In this world, the crystal ball is already translucent, which means she still has tasks to complete.
Through several worlds, she found that as long as she changed the fate of more cannon fodder, the changes in the big crystal ball would be more obvious.
It was agreed at the beginning that she would travel through time and become cannon fodder, but in a world, besides the heroine, there are many cannon fodder. After all, this is a real world, and the fate of a passerby may be the life of cannon fodder.
What she wants to change is not only the person she crossed over to become cannon fodder, but also many people who have encountered injustice. They are all cannon fodder.
In fact, this meaning was only gradually understood by her after she came to this world. In the last world, she was a lawyer and fought lawsuits all her life. The energy she gained can be said to be the sum of several previous worlds.
And it was only when she came to this world from the last world that she really understood this truth.
Winter goes to spring, spring is over, and summer is coming soon.
The emperor was still in June, a group of people came to Yuanmingyuan to escape the summer heat, but this time was different from the last time, the empress did not follow.
It is also miraculous to say that the empress has already been poisoned by herself, but she is still living a popular life in Chuxiu Palace. The imperial doctor visits her regularly, and I am afraid that she will not be able to end for the time being.
Taomi is still the highest ranking concubine in the harem, and with the third elder brother, in the harem, there is no opponent who can go down. For such a situation, it is not in vain that she spent so much effort to bring down the queen up.
"Ruyue, I'm very pleased that you can think about the queen." The emperor teased the third elder brother in Baochan's arms, showing a gratified smile.
He is a prince who came out of the harem, and his mother was from the harem, so how could he not know what happened in the harem? But as an emperor, compared with the affairs of the court, the affairs of the harem can only be regarded as trivial After dealing with the affairs of the court, he didn't bother to ask about the affairs of the harem.
As long as it doesn't hurt the root, it doesn't matter who wins or loses. Anyway, in the Forbidden City, there is no permanent winner. When the winner wins, he can show tolerance, whether it comes from the heart or on the surface Yes, it is a kind of generosity.
But the empress is now a deposed empress, and it is a taboo topic in the palace. No one dared to bring it up for a year. Now that Taomi asks, it should not be an act of generosity.
The emperor nodded secretly, "Ruyue, it's a pity that you can't enter the palace now because of the third elder brother. Otherwise, with you helping me take care of the harem, it would have been more relaxed for me."
"The emperor was joking. Ruyue is just a noble concubine, but she absolutely dare not take the power to manage the harem."
"Then I will make you queen now, then Ruyue, you can manage the harem." The emperor's words were both a joke and a test.
Tao Mi smiled, "Your Majesty, please don't say that again. Ruyue's ambition has never been to be a queen. In the Yuanmingyuan for more than a year, Ruyue has learned a lot of Buddhist teachings. Regarding those things, she just finds them boring. Your servant The concubine is still thinking that the third elder brother can return to the palace in the future, and continue to ask for orders to stay in the Yuanmingyuan. As for the management of the harem that the emperor said, it is better to ask someone else to be wise. I heard that the emperor has recently acquired a few noble concubines. I don’t know what to do ? Ruyue has never seen her before."
"Ordinary people, of course, it's not as good as Ruyue, you win my heart."
How could Niu Hulu Ruyue have no expectations for the queen? What the women in the harem want is the queen's chair.
She is the one who has no expectations for the queen. Since she came to this world, all she wants is the chair under the emperor's ass.
And if the latter was offered to her, she would naturally not refuse, after all, she was the only queen, and if something happened in the future, the third elder brother would be the eldest son of the middle palace, so everything would just go with the flow.
Judging by the way the emperor looks at her now, it seems that her refusal and welcome are very useful.
However, this method can only be used once, and if it is used too much, what should I do if it is regarded as a real rejection?
The concubines who followed in the palace were not good, but most of them were below the rank of concubine, and the concubine was just a concubine Chen. Looking at Concubine Chen's delicate appearance, Tao Mi remembered that this is the one in the plot who was given by the original owner. The dead concubine.
Later, it was rumored in the palace that Concubine Chen was unwilling to come back to seek revenge from the original owner. The original owner did not have any fear, but said domineeringly, "Maybe I can't fight even if I die and become a ghost, can I win?" '
It makes sense when you think about it, you can't fight in life, and you become a ghost in death, everything is empty, and naturally you can't do anything.
"What is your empress doing looking at Concubine Chen like this? Could it be that she is also admiring Concubine Chen's beauty? Concubine Chen's beauty has been praised even by the emperor." A newly promoted nobleman said with a smile on the side.
Tao Mi smiled and looked at her without saying a word. The old man who had served in the palace for a long time knew that someone was going to be in trouble when he saw Tao Mi's smile, and the person who was going to be in trouble was obviously Xin Gui who had just flattered Concubine Chen .
Everyone in the world knows that Concubine Ru is beautiful|glamorous, and there are few women in the world who can match her. However, this Xin Guiren took advantage of the time when Concubine Ru was away from the palace, and now he said this because he wanted to flatter Concubine Chen, who was highly favored. Obviously he didn't want to let himself have a good life.
Concubine Ru has been away from the palace for more than a year, but she is still able to bring down the queen, and the emperor still loves her a lot, which is enough to show that she is not an unknown person. When Concubine Ru was still Concubine Ru, they were not without vicious methods seen.
And this Xin Guiren, who was favored by the new nobles, didn't know Ru Guifei's means and power before, and thought that the emperor let her and the third elder brother come here, which meant that he was not favored. Now he blindly flatters Concubine Chen and offends the real nobleman.
The air was suddenly quiet, Xin Guiren obviously realized something, looked at Taomi timidly and said, "Mother, did the concubine say something wrong?"
"Xin Gui is talented, so how could he say the wrong thing." Tao Mi lazily leaned back on the chair, stretched out her hand and looked at her armor, her appearance was very careless.
"Concubine Chen is indeed beautiful, but the emperor did not tell me about it, so I don't know that Concubine Chen's beauty is unrivaled in the palace. From this we can see that her beauty is also a result of comparison. After all, it’s just fish eyes, but compared with the stones on Shiyue Road, fish eyes are naturally considered good.”
"Your words are good, Mr. Xin, you should be rewarded."
Tao Mi's words can be said to have said to Concubine Chen, Xin Guiren and even everyone in the harem. She wanted to compare her beauty with her, not to mention that the original owner was a beautiful person. With careful maintenance, the appearance is even better than before.
"Bao Chan, go and reward Xin Gui with the branch of the palace to announce the good news. It just so happens that there is a pearl inlaid on this gold hairpin. I hope Xin Gui can open his eyes and take a closer look. What kind of talent is it?" Pearls are called treasures. As a woman of the emperor, don’t just use pearls as fish eyes all the time. It’s fine to talk about it in front of this palace. It would be bad for the emperor's face."
Xin Gui fell to the ground and took the gold hairpin from Baochan, "Concubine, concubine, thank you for your reward, I will definitely not do such things in the future, please rest assured."
At the end, Xin Guiren also stabilized his mind, took the gold hairpin, stood up with the support of the maid, and sat on her original seat, no longer smiling like before, she dared not speak anymore up.
The pressure just passed down from above was something she had never experienced in front of the emperor.
In front of the emperor, she was blindly trying to be sweet and obedient. Every time the emperor saw her, he would laugh out loud. This was the first time she encountered such a thing after entering the palace.
While lamenting that a noble concubine is a noble concubine, she also has a deep fear. In the Forbidden City, the ranks are vacant, and the highest ranks are the few concubines, and Chen Concubine is the most favored. She thought that hugging Chen Concubine would be equivalent to Entered the most stable camp in the harem, now it seems that Concubine Chen is still too weak.
Why does Xin Gui think that Concubine Chen is weak? During the whole process, Concubine Chen sat beside her without saying a word, as if the whole thing had nothing to do with her. Even Tao Mi compared her to Yumu, She just kept her head down and said nothing.
Whether it's because of scheming and prudence to protect oneself, or because of fear of not being able to speak out, all the concubines who are working can see that she is not a good comrade-in-arms, and a leader who does not protect her subordinates is not a good leader either. leader.
If she doesn't make a sound, will Taomi let her go like this?
There is a saying called 'why do women make things difficult for women'.But if you are in the first day of junior high school, don't blame me for being in the fifteenth day.
Others think that Concubine Chen is only afraid of her so she doesn't come out to protect the noble lady, but Taomi is the closest to her, and she knows the aura around her best. When Xin Guiren was afraid, she still showed joyful emotions.
Why is she happy?
That's because Xin Gui is the new favorite, and she is just an 'old man'. If the 'old man' is embarrassing the 'new favorite' at this time, and the harem is fighting for favor, the emperor has always been towards him. At this moment, the possibility of Taomi's victory is not No big deal, that's what she wanted to see.
"Concubine Chen, I really haven't heard the words about your beauty from the emperor. I think the emperor has reunited with me for a long time and forgot. I will ask after the emperor and the courtiers have discussed. If Concubine Chen is really beautiful , but you should have a title that matches your beauty."
Whether a woman is beautiful or not, I have to ask a man, this question, these words, are problematic from beginning to end.
If there is a problem with the previous words, it will be picked out, but if there is a problem with the latter, then it is the real problem. Everyone is silent, waiting for Chen Fei's next words.
"The concubine dare not claim to be beautiful in front of the empress. With the empress's pearl in front of her, how can the concubine Yumu be compared with the empress? So please don't bother me."
Taomi said Yumu, so she called herself Yumu, and kept her posture low enough.
Originally, I thought that Taomi would be satisfied with this answer, but unexpectedly Taomi looked over, "Didn't Xingui just say that the emperor praised your beauty? Concubine Chen, you are now comparing yourself to a fish eye. Said that the emperor's eyes are clumsy, and let a fish eye be his concubine?"
"Young concubine, empress, what the concubine said is the truth. During the Dragon Boat Festival in May, the concubine did hear the emperor praise Chen Concubine's beauty. The concubine definitely did not lie. Many concubines were present and heard it , and ask the empress to disturb the concubine." Xin Guiren suddenly knelt down in front of Taomi and cried.
Looking at this appearance, it seems that he has been quite surprised.
Originally, after Tao Mi said those words, Xin Guiren admitted that he was flattering Concubine Chen, at most it was just forming a clique, but now that Xin Guiren said this, it was Chen Concubine who questioned the emperor's vision.
It is common to form cliques in the harem, but not everyone can afford to question the emperor.
Concubine Chen was originally a Han Chinese, neither from the Eight Banners of Manchuria, nor from the Han Army Banners, she was just the lady of a wealthy businessman whom the emperor met when he came out of the palace.
"Your Majesty, the concubine never questioned the Emperor's intentions, but the concubine made a mistake, and please forgive me." Concubine Chen also learned to be smart, and immediately apologized.
Looking at the two people kneeling in front, they are not simple characters. The Forbidden City is getting more and more lively. There is no queen, and there are concubines rising one after another. I believe that she will not be too boring when she returns to the palace in half a year.
"I haven't said anything yet, why are Concubine Chen and Mrs. Xin Gui guilty?" Tao Mi softened her expression and said relaxedly.
"Baochan, help Concubine Chen and Xin Guiren get up, and serve them two cups of calming tea."
"Yes."
The turmoil here had already spread before the concubine left. Apart from feeling that Taomi was even more difficult to mess with, everyone also mourned in silence for Concubine Chen and Mrs. Xin.
"Aunt Anxi, I know you are serving Mrs. Xin Gui now, but don't think too much about it. You're fine. If the imperial concubine doesn't have any real evidence, I won't do anything to her."
"Su Ying, I'm not worried about Xin Gui, I just sigh." An Xi sat on a rock in the rockery, looking up at the sky.
"What are you lamenting?" Su Ying had just entered the palace, so she didn't know many things very well. The one who treated her best in the palace was An Qian, and they were from the same town, so she trusted An Xi very much.
An Xi smiled, and the smile was a little relieved, "I just sigh, some people are born to be the kind of person favored by God, like a noble concubine, who has been out of the palace for more than a year, but the palace is still With her legend, we can often hear what the emperor said about Ru Guifei."
"That's right, Concubine Ru really seems to be favored by the heavens. She is smart and beautiful and has a high status. She gave birth to a third elder brother and has been favored by the emperor for many years. It is really enviable."
Seeing Suying's longing look, Anxi slapped her on the head, "Silly girl, don't dream, how long have you just entered the palace, Ru Guifei is now a beautiful woman, but when the Chuxiu Palace is still the queen , if the imperial concubine is to be favored by the emperor again, she will always be a concubine, so if she sees the empress, she should ask Ann to salute her."
"She is like us. She walks on thin ice every step she takes in the palace. If she takes a wrong step, she will be killed because of the emperor's love for her." An Qian put Su Ying's hair scattered in front of her. Behind the ear, "So Su Ying, don't envy anyone's life, even if you are as high as the emperor, you still have to worry about family and country affairs every day, be yourself, leave the palace when you are old, and save enough dowry to say Maybe you can still marry a good family, even if you don't marry someone, then you have to live a good life."
"But aunt, I just entered the palace, and it will take many years before I can go out."
"Don't worry, as long as you live well, every day you look forward to will come."
Su Ying nodded earnestly, and smiled, her eyes completed the crescent shape, making the originally not very attractive appearance a little more vivid, making people feel a strong sense of vitality just by looking at it.
Therefore, the most beautiful thing in this world is hope, and those who work hard for it with hope are the most beautiful.
When the concubines came out of Yongshou Hall, no one said anything about this matter, as if it had never happened at all. In fact, nothing happened at all, right?
As for Concubine Chen and Xin Guiren, Tao Mi noticed that these two people are not simple roles.
In the original book, although Concubine Chen was killed by the original owner, she is not a simple character. After she died, someone could fabricate rumors of "wronged souls claiming her life" for her in the palace, if it wasn't because the original owner was a People who don't believe in ghosts and gods, I'm afraid they will really be killed by this unwarranted "spirit".
There is also Xin Gui, who seems to be flattering Concubine Chen, but it is not known how much flattery she has in her heart. She can even adjust her position when she is "furious", even for the sake of "saying" To be honest, she didn't hesitate to offend Concubine Chen, which shows her scheming.
At the same time, in the Forbidden City, in Chuxiu Palace.
The queen looked at Sun Baiyang who was treating her in front of the bed, and slowly withdrew her hand, "Master Sun should know, how is my illness?"
"Wei Chen knows."
The emperor was still thinking of some affection, and did not let the empress leave it alone, and let the imperial doctor of the imperial hospital take care of her condition. The emperor thought it was thinking of the affection of the past, but he didn't know that this was just a knife and a knife. In the heart of the waste.
The queen who was proclaimed by you was abolished by you. Now there is someone here pretending to find a doctor for her, whoever it is, it is not so easy to accept.
"I'm just a criminal woman imprisoned in the Chuxiu Palace. Master Sun doesn't need to be polite in front of me." The queen sighed, looking at the layers of bed curtains, everything from yesterday was gone, "here In the harem, it's easy to die, and no one will know about it quietly, and even if they know, they won't care."
"But I want to live, because only by living can I see the fate of my enemies with my own eyes, and see how they are trapped in a cocoon step by step."
"If you have nothing else to do, I will take my leave first."
Sun Baiyang is not taken seriously in the imperial hospital now, so he was sent to take care of this person. He didn't want to be involved in the disputes in the harem, so naturally he didn't want to listen to what the queen said.
"Fuya." Just as Sun Baiyang walked to the door, Empress Fei suddenly said, "Nalan Fuya, does Master Sun really not care?"
"you……"
"I know all the things between you and Nalan Fuya. Since Mr. Sun is worried, why don't you work hard? As long as you get Niu Hulu Ruyue off, I can help you and Nalan Fuya go far away."
The conditions after the abolition cannot be said to be unattractive|people, Sun Baiyang admits that he is worried about Fuya in his heart, but it has nothing to do with love, and some are just the feelings of his confidant, what he thinks is that since Fuya lives in this palace unhappy , then he can find a way to take her out of the palace.
As a confidant, die without regret.
But the problem now is that Fuya doesn't want to leave the palace, even if she lives here not well, and she is exhausted physically and mentally, she is not willing to leave.
Her only family member is Xu Wantian, now that Xu Wantian is dead, and his wife has gone to nowhere, Fuya is out of the palace, and there is nowhere for women to survive, so it is better to stay in the palace.
"I appreciate your kindness, but I really don't understand what you are talking about. We are just acquainted with Fugui, and there is absolutely no feeling similar to 'can't let go'. Please take good care of your illness." Well, Weichen will come back tomorrow for a pulse check, so I'll take my leave first."
The abandoned Empress Niu Hulu who was lying on the bed watched Sun Baiyang leave, closed the door, and sat up. Although her face was still a little pale, her eyes were very fierce.
The centipede is dead but not stiff, you all look down on her too much, no matter what you have been the queen for so many years, she was knocked down by carelessness, as long as she doesn't die, she will fight forever.
Niu Hulu Ruyue, Sun Baiyang, let's ride a donkey to watch the flowers.
He took out a dark pouch without any patterns from under the pillow, took out a pill from it, and stuffed it into his mouth. After a while, the paleness on her face disappeared, and it turned into a kind of rosy, but this kind of rosy, No matter how you look at it, it is sick, not the kind of healthy pink.
Niu Hulu also lay down, his face revealed a kind of comfort, as if he had already possessed the most beautiful|wonderful thing in the world.
I am inferior to others and lost, but so what, if you didn't put me to death, then I still have a chance to do it again.
After becoming waste, he was poisoned by himself, as if his life had come to an end.
The poison was poisoned by her, so is it impossible for her to have an antidote?
Niu Hulu is like Yue, you will lose, and you will lose completely. Since you are soft-hearted and did not put me to death, then wait for my death and then live again.
When Sun Baiyang came out of Chuxiu Palace, he suddenly felt chills down his spine. He looked back at the signboard of Chuxiu Palace. The person who lived here was once the most honorable woman in the harem, but now, some of them were just a waste empress. Delusion to get out of here.
Maybe what she wanted was not to get out of here, but to take revenge on that woman, but would she succeed?
In his opinion, she will not succeed, because that woman is not only unfathomable, but also cynical. In the harem, everyone wants to climb up, only her, and she doesn't care at all.
In this harem, there seemed to be nothing worthy of her concern, and what happened to the queen had nothing to do with her.
She looked at everything in this palace as if she was watching a juggling show, watching how these people fought to the death for a better life, watching how they used their own means to fight for favor.
If she is interested, she can participate. If she is not interested, in order to save trouble, she will catch all these people, so as not to cause future troubles for herself. Xu Wantian is the best example.
Thinking of this, Sun Baiyang smiled miserably. He still has time to evaluate others here. If he has time, he might as well go and see his medical skills. After his medical skills are good, even if he is not working as an imperial physician in the palace, he can still set up a medical shed.
In a place Sun Baiyang didn't see, a little eunuch quietly approached Chuxiu Palace from a small path, and entered through the side door, still holding something in his hand, looking like a thief.
In the Qing Dynasty, since the emergence of Tianli Sect, many people believed in Tianli Sect more and more, and they did not go to the court for anything, but instead went to the Tianli Sect people.
Originally, if there was a drought or flood or natural and man-made disasters, the first thing the people thought of was to go to the yamen. No matter the drought or flood, they went to the yamen, and the yamen reported it. Not many, but every household has plenty of oil and water in their hands, and the common people can't complain even if they have any complaints.
And since the appearance of Tianli Sect, they gave out porridge for free. Although there was not much porridge given out, at least they could guarantee two bowls a day, so that they would not starve to death.
I don't know who made a statistic. In the past, in a village of [-] households, after a year of no crops, the number of people who died from eating government relief food was [-]% more than the number of people who died from eating porridge from the Tianli sect.
In this way, it goes without saying who is really thinking about the common people.
In the past, every time the common people had disputes, they would go to the yamen and ask the county magistrate to take charge, but now, the people from the local Tianli religion were asked to judge.
Eight times out of ten, the people of Tianli Sect were able to resolve such matters peacefully, and both parties were very satisfied. There was no need to be so rigid with Bo Gongtang, and the relationship between neighbors was greatly improved.
There are countless such things. Once or twice, the emperor can treat it as Tianli religion to solve troubles for the court, but after so many times, it is hard for him to believe that they are just helping the court to share their worries and have no other intentions.
The most irritating thing is that he didn't find out what the Tianli Sect was up to. In flood years, he led the people to dig ditches to drain water, and in drought years, he gave porridge to the people. They make sense.
Everything they do is a good thing. As the emperor, it is impossible to say that what they did was wrong.
Could it be that they threatened the prestige of a ruler by doing so?Is he still an emperor full of benevolence?
He can't be an emperor that the people don't like, but he really feels uncomfortable in his heart.
But the emperor felt uncomfortable, and the first thing he noticed was the people around him, the concubines in the harem and the courtiers who had to meet every day.
Tao Mi saw all these in her eyes and kept them in her heart. It can be said that he had such a reaction in her expectation. After all, no emperor would like his prestige and royal rights to be provoked.
A responsible emperor knows that he who wins the hearts of the people wins the world, but the most uncontrollable thing is the hearts of the people, and what he hasn't got is given to others, how can he be reconciled?
"Is the emperor sad because of the busy political affairs in the court recently?" In the Hall of Qinzheng, Concubine Chen thoughtfully came to deliver food to the emperor, just as the ministers who were discussing the matter had just left, and seeing the worried look of the emperor alone, as a favorite concubine, it was natural Care about it intimately.
He is not worried about political affairs, he is worried because there are no political affairs to do, "I have nothing to do, is there anything wrong with my concubine coming here?"
Concubine Chen smiled, "The concubine knew that she was stupid and couldn't help the emperor handle those political affairs, so she made some snacks for the emperor to taste, and hoped that the emperor would not think that the concubine's cooking skills were not as good as those of the masters in the imperial dining room."
"My concubine's ingenuity, how can I dislike it." The emperor smiled, all the wrinkles on his face came out, Concubine Chen continued to smile, "Ever since I have eaten your cooking skills, I can't eat the imperial meal Those snacks made by Fang.”
"Your majesty is joking, how can concubines be so good." Concubine Chen opened the suit, and brought out the plate, "Concubines are not as beautiful as concubines, and they don't have the ability to help the emperor manage the harem, so they can only do it." These small snacks are here to make the emperor eat more happily, be careful, and I hope the emperor will not dislike them."
After the eunuch tried the poison, the emperor also picked it up and tasted it together, "I am happy to see Ruyue, who is beautiful and beautiful, and I am also happy to be able to manage the harem in an orderly manner. I am happy to eat this dessert from my concubine, all good."
Concubine Chen couldn't help being depressed, she thought she was beautiful, she had heard that Concubine Ru was so beautiful, but she thought that since she came to Yuanmingyuan, no matter how beautiful she is, she is just a withered flower .
When she came to the Old Summer Palace, she saw Niu Hulu Ruyue, who had been rumored for a long time, and she was indeed beautiful, but she thought it was still not as beautiful as hers, especially after the incident with Xin Guiren, she thought it was Taomi who felt inferior to her. She was beautiful, and she didn't take what she said in a fit of anger.
But now, even the emperor said that, she was not born well, the only thing she can use is her own appearance, and now there are people who are more beautiful than her, how can she be reconciled?
"Your majesty, ask my concubine to give you a head massage. I used to give my father a head massage when I was at home. My father also said that it is very effective in relieving headaches." Withdrawing her thoughts, Concubine Chen laughed.
The emperor nodded, "Then let me try my concubine's skills."
Concubine Chen walked behind the emperor, took off her armor, and put her hand on the emperor's head.
Concubine Chen pressed the button, and the emperor gradually became drowsy, but his long-term vigilance kept him from falling asleep.
"Emperor? Are you asleep?"
"No, concubine Ai, do you have anything to say?"
"Your Majesty, my concubine has a question I would like to ask the Pope."
"Go ahead."
"The concubine wants to know, in the eyes of the emperor, among the concubines in the harem, is it the noble concubine who has the most outstanding appearance?"
The emperor opened his eyes, took Concubine Chen's hand and stood in front of him, "Concubine Chen, the most indispensable thing in this harem is self-knowledge. It's fine to be self-motivated, but don't think about everything that doesn't belong to you. Ruyue's appearance is naturally unparalleled in the world in my opinion, in front of her, other people can call it delicate for the time being, do you understand?"
"My concubine understands."
The emperor nodded, "Back off."
His eldest son was born to an ordinary concubine, who died early when he was young, his second son was born to the former empress, and the third son was born to the deposed empress. Now there are only three sons. The harem has always been a place where mothers are more precious than their sons. He gave birth to the third elder brother for him, and he was willing to give her such a face.
It is not comparable to those concubines who have no heirs. Concubine Chen has the ability to give birth to a prince, and he is willing to give her the same status.
As for the empress, she openly used poison in the palace, if she could do something to murder a court lady today, she would do something to murder him tomorrow, how could he not be on guard.
