Winter came very early in Yu Country this year, only after October, there were several heavy snowfalls in a row, and the chill was piercing to the bones. Several poor homeless people had already froze to death on the streets of the capital.
Earth fire dragons were burned in various palaces in the imperial palace. The use of earth fire dragons was not allowed in the palaces of concubines with lower status, and they could only burn charcoal for warmth.
But today's weather is unbearably cold, even if all the palaces have sent charcoal, they can't resist the menacing chill.
Emperor Yu only favored the noble concubine Xiao. Since Empress Su left the palace to become a monk to pray for the country, Concubine Xiao was in charge of the affairs of the six palaces. Because Concubine Xiao said that the harem cost a lot, she wanted to reduce the monthly allowances and food and clothing expenses of each palace in the harem. Now, except for the palace where the empress dowager and the emperor live, the charcoal and monthly silver received by the rest of the palace have been halved.
Although everyone in the harem was dissatisfied, they didn't dare to speak out, let alone tell the Emperor Yu.
Previously, a concubine complained to Emperor Yu because she was dissatisfied with Concubine Xiao's idea of halving the monthly rate. As a result, Emperor Yu not only failed to uphold justice for everyone, but also reprimanded the concubine for disrespecting Concubine Xiao and not understanding Concubine Xiao's painstaking efforts. Then in a fit of rage, her title was taken away and she was demoted to Jieyu. She has lived a miserable life until now.
Therefore, no one in the harem dared to have any dissatisfaction with Concubine Xiao, no matter how wronged they were, they could only bear with it.
"This year's winter is extremely cold." Han Qian chased after a long dress with red moiré patterns on a white background, and a red brocade and white rabbit fur jacket on his upper body. He looked very warmly dressed, but he was still freezing. Put your hands to your mouth and breathe out to keep warm.
Maid Lan Ying took a vermilion plush cloak and put it on Han Qianzhui, and carefully opened Han Qianzhui's exquisite white jade bead tassel earrings hanging on his left ear. He said softly: "Yes, this winter is so cold, Concubine Xiao Huang Guifei still insists on halving the allocations for each palace. Our Qianyue Palace is fine, with the Empress Dowager taking care of it, the charcoal fire and monthly allowances that should have have been halved. The empress dowager has made up for it all, but the other palaces don't know how to get along."
"Lan Ying, I heard that Shen Jieyu's life was not very good a few days ago, take some time and send some of the black charcoal in the palace to Shen Jieyu, and you can see that there are still some in the palace. Send those low-ranking concubines there, we don’t have many people in the palace, so we can use the red bamboo charcoal and silver bone charcoal that the imperial grandmother gave us.” A gust of cold wind blew past, and Han Qianzhui was so cold that he shivered. Trembling, he rubbed his hands together, "Remember to keep it quiet, and don't let Concubine Xiao see it, so she won't talk too much."
"Your maidservant knows that the princess is really kind. If Lan Luo hears this, she will definitely explode." Lan Ying nodded and complied with everything Han Qianzhui ordered.
She helped Han Qianzui to tidy up his appearance. In her eyes, the young man wearing a women's red dress fell into her eyes, and she didn't feel any disobedience. She sighed sincerely: "Princess is really suitable for wearing red, and you look very white and beautiful." , as delicate as winter red plums with white pistils."
Han Qianzhui smiled slightly when he heard the words, he gathered his cloak, and didn't feel that the chill had disappeared much, he glanced at the direction of Fengqi Palace where Concubine Xiao lived, and said in a calm tone: "Yes, it's very cold. Fits, would be more fitting if not a dress."
Han Qianzhui is a man, but he is called "princess" one by one by the maid, he has gotten used to it over the years.
Lan Ying thought she had said something wrong, so she quickly lowered her head to apologize, Han Qianzhui just shook her head gently, and said with a light smile, "I don't mean to blame you, let's go, call Lan Luo, let's go to Ningshou Palace Fire Dragon to go."
Lan Ying was overjoyed when she heard the words, she turned around and ran back to the palace to call her good sister Lan Luo to accompany Han Qianzhui to Ningshou Palace.
Ningshou Palace is the palace where Empress Dowager Su lives, and the supply is full all the year round, even the imperial concubine Xiao would not dare to deduct the expenses of Ningshou Palace.
Empress Dowager Su is the adoptive mother of Emperor Yu and the aunt of Empress Su.Empress Su and Emperor Yu were made by the Empress Dowager Su, but who would have expected that Empress Su would go out of the palace to lead cultivation practice and pray for the country after giving birth to Han Qianzhui.
Han Qianzhui was not valued and favored by the Emperor Yu since he was a child. Naturally, the noble concubine Xiao Huang had to deduct his expenses in the Qianyue Palace. Fortunately, the Empress Dowager Su would take care of him for the sake of the Su family, otherwise Han Qianzhui might be in danger. He died of illness a long time ago and no one cares about him in the palace.
When they came to Ningshou Palace, as soon as the palace servants saw Han Qianzhui, they immediately led him into the Nuan Pavilion beside him.
In the warm pavilion, the Empress Dowager Su also called the concubines who were good friends with her to come over. As soon as they saw Han Qianzhui, they kindly invited him to sit beside them.
Lan Ying took off the cloak for Han Qianzhui and handed it to a court lady beside him to dry, while Lan Luo helped Han Qianzhui to the Empress Dowager Su and the Concubine, and greeted them obediently.
"Come here with such a heavy wind and snow, it will freeze our years." The Empress Dowager Su's eyes were full of doting, she waved her hand, and the palace servants brought up warm ginger soup and handed it to Han Qian chasing hands.
Suisui is Han Qianzhui's baby name. It turned out that when Empress Su was still in the palace, she originally wanted to name Han Qianzhui Han Sui'an, which meant Suisui was safe, but Emperor Yu disagreed, so Empress Su could only name Suisui as Sui Sui'an. Sui was called as a baby name.
"Thank you, Grandmother, for your concern. When the grandson came over, Lan Yinglanluo was wearing an umbrella, and she was wearing a jacket made by the grandmother's hand, so it was warm." Han Qianzhui smiled sweetly, her slender, white and tender He also stroked the fur on the jacket lightly with his hand, and he seemed to like it very much.
Han Qianzhuisheng was good-looking, his appearance followed Queen Su's, and he smiled with bright eyes and white teeth, which was very likable. Elderly people like Empress Dowager Su and Concubine Toffee felt that just looking at them made people happy.
Empress Dowager Su took Han Qianzhui's hand. She was startled by Han Qianzhui's cold hand, and quickly put the hand stove in her arms in his arms, and said distressedly: "Why are your hands so cold? You still say How about warm? My little hands are frozen like this, come here, hold the imperial grandmother's hand stove warmly, drink ginger soup carefully, and burn it carefully."
Han Qianzhui obediently followed what the Empress Dowager Su said. He slowly drank the ginger soup and held the stove in his arms again. Only then did he feel alive.
"Sigh, this winter is frighteningly cold. The capital side is alright, but the Lin'an side suffered a snowstorm, and many livestock and people froze to death. The emperor has been busy with government affairs these days, so he doesn't have much time to come to the harem." The concubine saw Han Qian Zhui was freezing badly, suddenly remembered something, she sighed faintly, and said.
Han Qianzhui ate the cakes fed by the Empress Dowager Su in small bites, interjecting from time to time, saying, "Yes, when my grandson came over just now, I heard a court lady and eunuch talking about it."
Empress Dowager Su and Concubine Tai became interested and asked, "What do you say?"
"It is said that the charcoal fires and monthly schedules of the palaces have been halved this year, and the weather is so cold, not to mention people freezing to death outside the palace, even people in the palace will freeze to death." Han Qianzhui blinked his big watery eyes, Said innocently.
The Empress Dowager Su and the concubine were taken aback for a moment, they looked at each other, and soon understood the meaning of Han Qianzhui's words.
They are also well aware of what the imperial concubine Xiao did in the harem. Ever since the matter of Empress Su caused a rift between Emperor Yu and the Empress Dowager Su, the Empress Dowager Su has never taken care of the affairs of the harem. She just watched coldly what the imperial concubine did, because it didn't affect Ningshou Palace, Empress Dowager Su, so she turned a blind eye and ignored it.
Now that this matter was told by Han Qianzhui face to face, she frowned slightly and continued to ask: "Sui Sui, the Ai family has not been in charge of the affairs of the harem for several years, can you talk to the Ai family about the matter?" Which palaces will have insufficient charcoal fire?"
Han Qianzhui pretended to be thinking seriously, and said innocently: "It's just the palaces of those low-ranking concubines, such as Shen Jieyu, Zhang Meiren, and Li Cairen."
Lan Luo, who stood beside Han Qianzhui, was straightforward. She knew that the empress dowager loved Han Qianzhui. When she heard the empress dowager asked about this, she immediately pouted and complained aggrievedly: "The empress dowager is kind, if not If you take care of our princess, Qianyue Palace will be the same as Shen Jieyu and the others. This month's monthly payment and charcoal were delayed for more than half a month. Our princess is naturally weak and very afraid of the cold. If there is no silver bone charcoal sent by you for more than half a month, I will definitely be sick for ten days and half a month."
Hearing this, Empress Dowager Su frowned even more, she glanced at the concubine sitting beside her, and said in a rather displeased tone: "The Ai family just doesn't ask about the imperial concubine's control of the affairs of the harem, why? And let her bully my good grandson?"
As Empress Dowager Su said this, Han Qianzhui, who was sipping tea with his head down, covered his face with the teacup, and the corners of his mouth curled into a sly arc.
"Sui Sui darling, why don't you tell Ai's family that you have been wronged? Ai's family doesn't know that the current harem is covered by the imperial concubine, but you have suffered." Empress Dowager Su gently stroked Han Qianzhui with distress. Fa Ding, "The Ai family will handle this matter well, you don't have to worry, although the Ai family said they don't care about the affairs of the harem. But I can't watch the imperial concubine abuse my good grandson and concubine in the harem like this."
Hearing the words of the Empress Dowager Su, Han Qianzhui raised his face. He waited for his big watery and black eyes, and looked innocently at the Empress Dowager Su. His voice was still trembling slightly. A little scared: "Grandson has nothing to do, there are charcoal fires and winter clothes materials sent by the emperor's grandmother from Aunt Ciyuan in the grandson's palace, so the young life is still pretty good, so don't go looking for the imperial concubine. "
The Empress Dowager Su was even more angry when she saw Han Qianzhui's appearance. The good grandson she held on top of her heart was so frightened that her voice trembled. She patted the table heavily, frightened. The maids around trembled a little, but she didn't pay attention to it, she turned her head and told the nurse standing beside her, "Ciyuan, you go and inform the imperial concubine, and you will be restored as a concubine in the harem from tomorrow onwards." Xiang Ai's family will set the rules day and night, but Ai's family wants to see what kind of demon she wants to be."
Ci Yuan nodded slightly, blessed Fushen and withdrew.
After Ci Yuan left, Empress Dowager Su was still very angry. Han Qianzhui looked pitifully at the concubine beside her. I want to tell you an interesting story. Yan Guo said that their son was born as a wolf spirit, and every three years they will present a beauty to him. Men and women are not taboo. Those beauties who are dedicated to the son will enter the son They all said that the Holy Son turned into a wolf spirit and devoured them all alive."
The Empress Dowager Su was still angry at first, but she glanced at Han Qianzhui, knowing that she might have frightened him, she immediately regained her composure, peeled an orange and handed it to Han Qianzhui, cleared her throat, and said: "Wolf spirit? Yan Guo likes to brag about these gods, gods and ghosts. If their son is a wolf spirit, the Ai family will say that we are South Sea sharks."
Speaking of which, the Empress Dowager Su stretched out her hand to gently pinch Han Qianzhui's white and tender face, but a red mark was formed with just a light pinch. The Empress Dowager Su said with a smile: "It is said that there are sharks in the South China Sea. The beauty shocks the world. We Sui Sui are rare beauties in this world, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the mermaids are alive, but it is a pity..."
Empress Dowager Su didn't continue talking, but everyone present knew what Empress Dowager Su was regretting. This matter was the only thing that Empress Dowager could not solve.

Lan Ying was overjoyed when she heard the words, she turned around and ran back to the palace to call her good sister Lan Luo to accompany Han Qianzhui to Ningshou Palace.
Ningshou Palace is the palace where Empress Dowager Su lives, and the supply is full all the year round, even the imperial concubine Xiao would not dare to deduct the expenses of Ningshou Palace.
