The Job of an Imperial Concubine

Chapter 41: Holy Grace

Views:

Sun Ronghua, as a maid of the inner palace, was not virtuous and violated the virtues of women, so his title was removed and he was demoted to the cold palace.

Sun Ronghua, who had been proud in the harem for only a few months, ended so bleakly. Even the Sun family was scolded by the sage for not being strict with the goddaughter, and even the official was demoted by three levels. The Zhao family, who was close with the Sun family, also lost a helper.

On the other hand, the bankers still behaved as usual, and did not take the opportunity to complain about Zhao Chongyi. When the emperor asked about it by chance, they only said that their daughter had entered the royal gate and married her husband. Everything was arranged by the emperor, and they had no opinion on everything.

The emperor was very satisfied with the knowledge of the Zhuang family, so he transferred the Zhuang family's direct son, who was originally working in the Ministry of Industry, to the household department, and served as the servant of the household department, comforting the Zhuang family in disguise. The people in the court looked at it, and they all cursed Mr. Zhuang for being an old fox. Not only did he get a good impression of the emperor, but he also planned a good future for his son. Although the Ministry of Household and Ministry of Industry are both six, they are more important than others. , who can't see it

"Bang!" The always virtuous queen was so angry that she smashed a teacup. Thinking of her cousin Sun, who was already in the cold palace, she secretly hated that she didn't know who she was, so why did she find such a mindless person to enter the palace, and together with her She was also embarrassed.

"Empress Empress," He Yu stepped forward to change a cup of tea, and said in a soothing tone, "Now the emperor has no intention of punishing Niangniang, why should Niangniang be so annoyed, it is better to just pretend that this never happened, how was it in the past, now Anyway."

"How could Ben Gong not know how to do this, just thinking that in this deep palace, all the women are not simple, Ben Gong felt a headache," the queen took a sip of the tea cup, and suppressed the anger in her heart, "Zhao Chong What's going on in Yi's place, I heard from the imperial doctor yesterday that her voice is not yet fully recovered, so you can send someone to ask, and let Xihe Palace speak up if you need anything."

"Don't worry, madam, the servants have already been dispatched. You haven't had a good rest these days, so you should rest for a while." He Yu had followed the queen into the palace for many years, and seeing the queen's appearance made her a little more worried.

"Where can I sleep in this palace?" The queen narrowed her eyes. "The weeds in the pond were messed up, and who threw them into it?"

Heyu shook his head with a dignified expression, "The servants have checked, and in the past few days, in addition to the servants of Xihe Palace, there are several people around the master who have passed by the lotus pond. They look suspicious, but everyone from there Everyone who passes by has errands, and the slaves are incompetent..."

"You don't have to blame yourself. Since the master of this kind of mantis catching cicada oriole is behind, how can he easily expose himself," the queen waved her hand. "There is no need to investigate this matter."

Heyu looked at the queen's calm face and said yes.

Summer is always a season for people to be impetuous, but near the end of summer, the autumn tiger is also very uncomfortable. Because Zhuang Luoyan is recovering from illness, there is no shortage of ice cubes and fresh fruits and vegetables in the palace. In addition, the emperor often comes to do it. The slaves are even more afraid to neglect.

Playing with a piece of silk thread in his hand, Zhuang Luoyan leaned on the chaise longue with an indescribably comfortable expression on his face.

"Master, the imperial doctor has come to ask for your pulse, and I'm waiting outside." Tingzhu walked into the house and saw his master playing with silk threads.

"Let him come in." Putting the silk thread aside, Zhuang Luoyan smiled, her voice still a little hoarse, but unprovoked and pitiful.

"Wei Chen has seen Zhao Chongyi."

"Doctor Lu doesn't need to be too polite," Zhuang Luoyan smiled slightly. After Imperial Doctor Lu got up, the maid beside her wrapped a thread for the pulse on her wrist. Every time at this time, she would admire the magic of traditional Chinese medicine.

Imperial Physician Lu has served in the Imperial Hospital for many years, and has seen a lot of shameful things in the palace. The more favored but not arrogant concubines like Zhao Chongyi are, the less they dare to offend, because such women have always lived a long time and are valued by the emperor. The longer it takes.

"Master Zhao's body has improved a lot, but he can't be exposed to heat and blowing air, and he can't eat spicy food for the past two days. The rest are not afraid." The imperial doctor said this cleverly. After expressing his kindness to Zhuang Luoyan, if his body is fine, he means that he can go to bed.

Listening to Zhu and Yun Xi, who were waiting on the side, would take something to give to the imperial physician. Isn't that the case in the harem? They use each other. Since there are common interests, it is better to be generous in small matters.

When the imperial doctor left, Zhuang Luoyan glanced at the palace servants in the room and waved his hand, "Let's just wait here for Zhu and Yunxi to wait, you all retreat."

"Yes," the waiter quietly retreated, Zhuang Luoyan twisted the silk thread beside his hand, and sneered, "I really didn't expect Xu Zhaorong to do this again." If she really didn't know Water-based, even if it is counted, I am afraid I will lose a small life.

The women in the boudoir, naturally unaware of water, jumped into the water and were entangled by water plants, whether intentional or not, they would surely die. Xu Zhaorong made this move, no matter who lost his life or Sun Ronghua, the other person would definitely be punished by the emperor. It was really a good plan to kill two birds with one stone.

I'm afraid the only thing outside the plan is that he can become watery. Zhuang Luoyan threw the silk thread into the tea cup next to him, saw the white thread dyed with the color of tea, and said lightly, "We Xihe Gonglijue have always been heavy, and we can't see anything that shouldn't be seen at night. This cup of tea is cold, take it out and pour it out."

"Yes," Yun Xi picked up the tea cup and walked out.

Hearing Zhu Zhi pick up the fan, he stepped forward to shake the fan for Zhuang Luoyan, and said in a low voice, "Master, how could Xu Zhaorong expect that Sun Ronghua would have such a hand?"

"Maybe Sun Ronghua has her people there, maybe..." Zhuang Luoyan sneered, maybe this person wanted to send someone to push her into the pool, no matter what kind of possibility, this Xu Zhaorong couldn't be wrong if she wanted to figure it out.

Tingzhu also heard the meaning of Zhuang Luoyan's words, and immediately gritted his teeth and said, "It's a good calculation."

"What is such a trick?" Zhuang Luoyan narrowed his eyes and yawned, "Whoever is a woman in the harem doesn't have a lot of calculation, Xu Zhaorong must have the courage to be discovered if he dares to do this, and there are a lot of eyes around here. "

Hearing Zhu didn't expect Zhuang Luoyan to talk about this kind of thing so calmly, and she said sadly, "Could it be that the master will let her figure it out for nothing?"

"How could it be a vain plan?" Zhuang Luoyan opened her eyes and smiled. Her half-brother with a body was promoted. Looking at the emperor's attitude, it was not without affection for her, at least she has now joined her. Eyes, whether it is a curse or a blessing is uncertain.

Before the court case, Feng Jin closed the report of trivial matters in his hand, raised his head to look at Gao Dezhong, "Gao Dezhong, how is Zhao Chongyi of Xihe Palace?"

"Back to the emperor, the people from the hospital just now came to report that the master Zhao is fine, but his voice is slightly hoarse. Recently, he can't eat spicy food or get hot." I know that the emperor is somewhat interested in the master of Xihe Palace. , Gao Dezhong is always concerned about this master's affairs.

"Since this is the case, the people in the palace can't be short of ice cubes from Xihe Palace, and fresh fruits and vegetables are also delivered," Feng Jin thought for a while, "By the way, send someone to ask Zhao Chongyi, the cook of Xihe Palace. If you can use it, it will be satisfactory, if you can't use it, you will be replaced by another person."

"Your Majesty is attentive, the servant will ask someone to ask." Gao Dezhong hesitated for a moment, and then said, "The eunuch who was serving in the house just now saw that the emperor was busy with state affairs, and did not dare to disturb the front, so the servant dared to ask for the person who served in the house. Is the emperor going to flip the brand today?"

"Since Zhao Chongyi is in good health, let's go to Xihe Palace tonight." Feng Jin picked up a book again, "Zhao Chongyi was shocked a lot, it's time to comfort him."

"Yes." Seeing that the emperor seemed unwilling to speak any more, Gao Dezhong stood aside peacefully, but began to wonder in his heart whether he had neglected the master of Guoxihe Palace in the past. He looked at him coldly, and the emperor's treatment of Xihe Palace did have some real favors.

"You said that the emperor ordered Xihe Palace today?" When Yangui heard the report from the people below, her complexion suddenly darkened, she pinched a flower bud in her hand, and sneered: "She has some means."

Sun Ronghua collapsed, and he lost face even with the empress, but this Zhao Chongyi received the emperor's love, and even brought his mother's family to receive the grace. After falling into the pool once, he picked up a big bargain.

No wonder... someone was expecting her to die.
