To be honest, she and Concubine Yi did not have any deep hatred.
Concubine Hui was an old lady in the palace, the same age as the current emperor. Kangxi was in his early thirties, a young and vigorous emperor, but men and women are very different.
In a few years, Yinzhi would get married, and by then, she would be a grandmother. In addition, Huifei's appearance was only pretty at best, and now there were some wrinkles around the corners of her eyes, so she was not really beautiful.
Over the years, she had long since become indifferent to favors, and no longer cared whether or not to sleep with the emperor. She only devoted herself to her children... But Concubine Yi was the exact opposite of her.
She is extremely beautiful and is favored by the emperor. She is truly the most beautiful woman in the harem and no one can compare to her.
It was fine before, but as time went by, the emperor favored Concubine Yi more and more. This favor was too much, to the point that even Concubine Hui couldn't help but be shocked!
Even though she felt sour about the way Concubine Yi and the Emperor got along, Concubine Hui could still comfort herself that she was the head of the concubines. In terms of seniority, offspring, and helpers in the court, she was superior to Concubine Yi in all aspects.
Guo Luoluo had to call herself "sister" after all, and her seat at banquets was always after her - but why did the emperor suddenly make her a noble concubine without any warning
What virtue and ability does Concubine Yi have? !
It was like a bolt from the blue. The shock was too much.
Concubine Niohuru used her family background to suppress her, but Concubine Hui still couldn't accept it. Because she had an eldest prince and a precious daughter in the court, even if her attitude of paying respects was perfunctory, Niohuru would just smile and couldn't do anything to her.
The Imperial Household Department treated her and the imperial concubine with the same flattering attitude. Of course, all this happened a long time ago.
In the harem, either the west wind prevails over the east wind, or the east wind prevails over the west wind. Since the death of the Eighth Prince, Concubine Hui has rashly fallen into a big fall, and the Imperial Concubine has become particularly tough, seizing the opportunity to suppress her many times, both openly and secretly. She had no choice but to swallow her anger, grit her teeth secretly, and wait for future plans.
No matter what, the gap in status is here, and it is not pleasant to be oppressed by power. It is already bad enough to have the Niu Hulu family above you, what about now
From now on, she would kneel down and salute Concubine Yi, and say "Long live the Concubine"... When Concubine Hui thought of this, she felt as if her internal organs were burning with pain.
The emperor totally disregarded Yinzhi's face and forgot the friendship he had with her all the way!
Yinqi and Yinlu became the sons of the imperial concubine. Together with the original Yin'e, where would the eldest son born to her be placed
For a moment, Concubine Hui completely ignored the fact that Concubine Liang was promoted to concubine, and she also didn't care about the other disturbances caused by the imperial edict. She asked Ying'er, who was serving her, in a hoarse voice, with a frighteningly pale face: "After the imperial edict was issued, I guess the Yikun Palace must be very lively, right?"
"In reply to the Queen, Concubine Cheng, no, Concubine Cheng, immediately went to the Yikun Palace, followed closely by Concubine Duan and Concubine Liang..." Ying'er said in a low voice, not daring to breathe, "Concubine An and Concubine Jing took the generous gifts and went together, and happened to meet Concubine Rong's sedan chair. Only Concubine Xi and Concubine Ping did not move."
Concubine Hui's eyes became stern, and Concubine An and Concubine Jing, the two fence-sitters, acted quickly.
"You can go there in person with the gift, and tell them that I am still atoning for my sins under the order of the Emperor, and that I am under house arrest and cannot go there to congratulate you." She tried to hold back the dizziness and squeezed out a few words from between her teeth, "I hope... Noble Concubine Yi will show some sympathy."
*****
Yikun Palace.
There was an endless stream of concubines coming and going, and the gifts filled the entire side hall. The ears were filled with waves of congratulations, and now that night had fallen, the palace servants finally had some free time.
Nanny Dong and Ruizhu were all beaming with joy, smiling all day. Yunxiu's cheeks were slightly sore from laughing, and after finally relaxing, she let out a long sigh, "Look at this situation, it's really scary, I don't know how you managed it."
The belated Concubine Wen glanced at her and stretched out her voice: "You are so ungrateful. It's time for the Emperor to recognize the true face of our Concubine Yi. She is really a lazy bug reincarnated, and no one can save her!"
Yun Xiu smiled and continued, "That's right. You can't compare to Concubine Wen at all. You are the hardworking bee, collecting all the nectar in the garden. As for me, I just sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor."
Concubine Wen nodded at her helplessly: "I can't argue with you no matter what."
Due to the busy government affairs, the emperor sent someone to inform that he would not come to eat today. Concubine Wen took advantage of this opportunity and took the tenth prince to the Yikun Palace to congratulate him. However, after chatting for a while, she ran into Liang Dazong, who had a complicated expression.
The emperor was 'forced' to stay overnight in the Qianqing Palace, which was fine, he also asked Liang Jiugong to pass on a message: "Xiu Xiu, please don't be disappointed. Tomorrow, I will personally celebrate for the Imperial Concubine..."
After hearing this special oral order, Concubine Wen's expression was indescribable. In her arms, the fat baby Yin'e, who was wearing a tiger-head hat, looked as if he had seen a ghost.
After seeing Liang Jiugong off, Concubine Wen took a long break and murmured, "It's not easy for you either. This palace has really learned a lot..."
In the rocking crib, the ninth prince Yinzhen tried hard to roll his eyes and thought with a sour look, haha, isn't it just a brief experience
It happened every now and then, and his mother didn't think it was a big deal, but the old man was driving him crazy.
At this moment, he actually missed the Crown Prince and the distant Yuqing Palace. He would rather listen to the second brother's nagging and be put in the wrong crotchless pants than be tortured by this damn devil's oral order!
Seeing the baby again, Jiu Ye almost burst into tears, thinking, "My dear brother, you are finally here. Jiu Ge really can't bear it. With you, I will feel better...
In fact, at noon today, Yinzhen was so shocked by the imperial edict promoting him to the rank of noble concubine that he couldn't recover for a long time.
Now, the shock in his heart was diluted by the sour feeling in his teeth. He sighed, stuck out his butt and turned over, just in time to meet the eyes of Yin'e who couldn't wait to jump into the rocking crib.
Because he was completely defenseless, the Ninth Prince had a full view of the Tenth Prince's tender face. The Tenth Prince also saw his brother's indescribable expression.
The bright big eyes and the small eyes looked at each other for a long time, and then gradually widened. After the surprise, they became solemn.
One thought excitedly, wow, why does Lao Shi’s expression look the same as mine
One thought sourly, the emperor is disgusting, but ninth brother, it's great that you have big eyes. Yi'enniang became a concubine, look how proud you are!
No, for God's sake, could it be that—
The two little princes stared at each other, their minds blank.
After coming to their senses, they leaned against each other head to head and stretched out their hands to each other with difficulty. They wanted to hold it, but the nature of babies made them open their mouths in sync, stared at the little hand waving in front of them, their eyes sparkled, and bit it with a roar.
Yinzhen: “…”
Yin'e: "..."
The deafening cry interrupted the idle chat between Yunxiu and Concubine Wen. They hurried over to see that the two chubby babies had rolled together. Their hands and feet were entangled together, as if they were being intimate, or as if they were wrestling, neither of them giving in.
One howled loudly, and the other howled even louder, as if they were competing with each other. They howled one after another, one after another, echoing throughout the Yikun Palace.
Upon closer inspection, it was clear that they were just shouting at the top of their lungs, and both of their eyes were dry.
How could Yunxiu not know Yinzhen's background
This kid was a devil in his previous life, and he is even more terrible in this life. Except for making trouble at night, the emperor gives in to him in everything; not to mention Yinreng and Yinqi, everyone is a good brother to him, and he will give him whatever he wants.
"I was just conferred the title of Imperial Concubine, and I am so happy that I have no place to vent. How about spanking the child to calm him down?" Yun Xiu narrowed her eyes and said slowly, "What do you think, sister?"
Not to mention Master Ninth, even Master Tenth was frightened and quickly pulled himself out of his excitement and joy. He glanced around with his little eyes, retracted his hands and feet, and shrank back like a quail.
He looked at her timidly, "Brother, when did Yi'er Niang become like this?"
Is she still the Yi'e mother who doted on Ninth Brother
Although he couldn't speak, the amazing thing was that Yinzhen actually understood it.
Speaking of this, Jiu Ye felt sad.
"I don't know about your brother either." He blinked desperately, then wrinkled his face and bared his teeth, trying to make Old Ten understand the meaning better. "If I really have to say, it must be because of the old man's love!"
"..." The look of disdain was so vivid that Yin'e could understand it.
The old man’s favorite
Remembering the wet nurse's idle chatter in her spare time, talking about how favored the Ninth Prince was, Yin'e hissed, thinking that with Yi'erniang's protection, the Ninth Prince would be extraordinary.
Now that he has the chance to do so again, he can actually enjoy the treatment of the second brother of the crown prince. If it were him, he would wake up laughing in his dreams.
You are the only one who complains!
