"What's there to be dissatisfied with? I am a concubine, and so is she. But my canonization ceremony was earlier, how can she be worse than me?" Shen Chuliu smiled and didn't care.
"That's the truth, but after all, she has two princes, so she might feel unfair." Yao Baolin said.
"Both of us are the same. When we reach the concubine position, we have reached the top. Although there are two positions for the noble concubine and the virtuous concubine in the first-grade and fourth concubine positions. It sounds greedy, but if you ask her to go up, she won't do it. Yes." Shen Chuliu said.
"My Majesty has seen through it all. Speaking of which, it's time for the new couple to come in next year, but I don't know what to do." Yao Baolin thought for a while: "A few days ago, when my Majesty was still in the north, I accidentally chatted with Rong Jieyu. , said she was the late Ying Xiurong’s girl, I’m afraid she’s going to be drafted.”
"Her sister?" Shen Chuliu frowned: "General Li also has a daughter?"
"She is a concubine. There is only one legitimate child, Ying Xiurong. Both of them were born to my aunt. I don't know what they look like. But nowadays, the task of suppressing bandits in the southwest cannot be completed in a short time. If you really choose, you will definitely be able to come in. , relying on General Li's power and Ying Xiurong's little things, I can't say that I can have a good position, but I don't know what my temper is like. "
"The concubine's temperament is not very good, but the concubine's temperament can be better? Who knows, no matter how much you hold her, you can't just go to the ninth concubine when you come in, take your time. There are many people in the palace, so you are not afraid of them turning the world upside down." Shen Chuliu didn't care very much.
"What the empress said is that this sister is of little use if she doesn't have a younger sister. When Concubine Yi was so favored, wouldn't her younger sister come in if she wants to enter the palace after her death?" Yao Baolin said with a smile.
The Hu family, which was once arrogant, is now no longer in power locally. Who in the imperial city still knows them
Shen Chuliu shook his hand gently: "Don't worry."
She thought that the advantage of going higher was that she could sit and watch the newcomers fight.
After all, she was still a child like Baolin, and she couldn't fight with the people in the concubine position.
After Yao Baolin left, Yuan Xiao came in and said, "Master, the people from Yufu Palace want to see you."
"No, the palace maid asked Grandma Zhang to teach you, and the eunuchs are all yours to teach. They will serve them wherever they are supposed to serve. For today, just reward them. Anyway, I don't have any rules here. Anyway, don't let me see the dirty things. Otherwise "Well, wasn't there someone who sent it to the Criminal Division before?" Shen Chuliu said calmly.
She was too lazy to give lectures in public, so why bother
She was still used to the dozen or so people in front of her. As for the others, those who could stand in front of her over time would always stand up.
There are too many people in the Yufu Palace, so it's impossible not to sneak in one or two people from elsewhere. It doesn't matter, as long as they can't get close to her.
Sure enough, Yuanxiao polished these words to the people below, and they didn't even dare to whisper to each other.
No one in the palace knew how powerful Concubine Jing was.
Unless they are new people who have come in in the past two years, they are really impressive.
In fact, if you want to say that Concubine Jing did something and punished several eunuchs and maids, that's not true.
But she is so powerful and direct that she scares many people.
In fact, what those who serve in the palace fear most is that there are no rules and no reasons. This is the most feared kind of master.
Because there are no rules, you don’t know what is right and what is wrong, and you don’t know what to do to make your master happy or what to make your master angry.
So at this time, they were all cautious. Since they couldn't ask their master to speak, they could only please the old people.
However, fortunately, the old people know what they need to know and are willing to mention the things that should be mentioned.
For example, the eunuchs jointly gave Yuanxiao twenty taels of silver, and Yuanxiao accepted it with a smile, and did not hesitate to mention: "Our queen is easy to serve, but she is loyal. Among you, I dare not say where Come on, Lord Buddha. If you really do, I advise you to hide it. If you don’t expose it for the rest of your life, you’ll be safe.”
When he said this, everyone rushed to express their loyalty. In fact, their origins were easy to find out, but they were all on the surface.
It's hard to say what's going on secretly.
The funniest thing is that that night, a young eunuch accidentally fell down the steps and injured his arm. He was unable to serve him in the short term.
Shen Chuliu quickly transferred him with ten taels of silver, and replaced him with someone who had just been promoted from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
This word reached Tai Chi Palace, and Qi Yixiu laughed: "Have you checked? Where is it from?"
The fourth day of the lunar month also wanted to laugh: "Back to the emperor, it should be from Empress Ning Zhaorong's side." "This Shen! She has this ability!" Qi Yixiu said with a smile.
He naturally knew that these concubines had some tricks up their sleeves, and it was not a big deal to let each other have spies.
I thought Shen Chuliu was going to give him a good beating, but I didn't expect that she didn't bother to see or say a word at all.
It happened to be like this, and it scared all the little eunuchs and Xiaogong's daughters out of their courage.
Before anything happened, he found a reason to run away.
Shen Chuliu was also a little speechless.
"It seems that my image is deeply rooted in people's hearts."
The girls all laughed.
"That's good, it will save them from being dishonest." Chi Su said.
"Okay, it saves trouble." Shen Chuliu finished putting on makeup and stood up: "Let's go, please go."
She was wearing a cherry red skirt today. In March, the imperial city was hot and cold, and today was that hot and cold day.
So she wore less today and wore her hair in a simple bun, but she wore exquisite and beautiful jewelry. It is made of the finest white pearls that the emperor gave him a few days ago.
The tassels in her hair hang down, and there are coral beads hanging from thin silver threads. Decorate your hair to look lively and pretty.
She lengthened her eyebrows into a slender and slightly upward look, and elongated her almond-shaped eyes a little longer.
The little black dots that had not been put on for a long time appeared under her eyes again.
Between the eyebrows is a petal protruding from the pale pink rouge groove, which is private and Ruoru.
When we arrived at Fengzao Palace, it was neither too early nor too late.
There are more and more people who should pay their respects to her, and she only needs to pay her respects to Concubine Qianshu and Concubine Kangde.
Unlike other concubines, they only need to be greeted by courtesy, and the rest are just greetings from everyone.
Although it's freezing at high altitudes, it's still much more comfortable when you look down.
Some people said behind the scenes that Concubine Jing would not come to pay her respects, but it would be hard to say that in front of her face.
Concubine Jin was always mean-mouthed, but Shen Chuliu didn't bother to pay attention to her.
Concubine Li didn't have much to say today, while Ning Zhaorong glanced at Shen Chuliu several times, but didn't say anything.
Good morning, another happy ending.
After they left, Mei Jieyu went to Yan Xiurong's Ji Yunxuan.
The white peony gifted by the emperor bloomed, and it was beautiful. Yan Xiurong watered the flowers and said, "Sister, do you have something to say?"
"Sister, don't you know? Yesterday, a eunuch at Concubine Jing's house was injured and sent back."
