Although Jinli felt that something was wrong there, she didn't see any problem, so she had to temporarily let Shen Yuqing go, and went back to report.
However, the emperor heard Jin Li's report and did not believe Concubine Shen's nonsense. But he felt that he might not be able to find out the truth, so he had to ask Jinli to convey the original words to the queen.
Left and right Shen Yuqing will not tear up the agreement to the empress's detriment, so let her do it. Her purpose will be revealed sooner or later.
After getting the emperor's tacit approval, it became more convenient for Shen Yuqing to act.
As usual, I went to pay my respects early in the morning, and then had breakfast. It's a pity that the goal of grabbing lunch has not been achieved yet, but Concubine Shen is not in a hurry.
One day, she was holding the adults in the courtyard to bask in the sun, and the little eunuch Qing Zhou came back from outside and whispered something in Que Ri's ear. Que Ri nodded and came to Shen Yuqing's side.
"Reporting to your Majesty, His Majesty rested at Liu Shuyuan's place in Changzui Palace yesterday."
It has been more than ten days since the newcomer entered the palace. During this time, the emperor visited the harem for most of the days, and rested in the Zichen Palace for the rest of the days. As for the favored concubines, except for the high-ranking concubines, the rest are basically promoted.
As the daughter of Dali Siqing, Liu Shuyuan originally had a good chance of being favored in the first few days, but she offended Concubine Rong by saying something wrong before.
In front of everyone, point out Concubine Rong's title "Rong" and the palace "Yunxiang Palace". Even if other people didn't know the way inside, Concubine Rong felt very embarrassed. Therefore, under Concubine Rong's intentional or unintentional obstruction, Liu Shuyuan didn't get favored until yesterday, and she was promoted from the fifth rank Xiu Rong to the fourth rank Shuyuan.
Before entering the palace, the empress planned to give her a fifth-rank beauty, but the queen mother saw that she was a good girl, so she was promoted to a fifth-rank beauty. How could he have thought that he would offend a big shot as soon as he entered the palace, but fortunately it is not too late to accept favor.
"Liu Shuyuan has been favored, so I should send some things to the palace." Shen Yuqing combed the adults slowly, "Let's take a walk around the stars."
According to the rules in the palace, if a newcomer first gains favor or a concubine is promoted to a position, the high-ranking concubine should send some congratulatory gifts. The amount of congratulatory gifts depends on many aspects, generally it depends on the rewards from the emperor, empress, and queen mother, and it is best not to be more than them. But closeness and distance also have an impact. If you are a concubine who is close to you, you can add a layer of congratulations.
Concubine Shen is a very fair person. Based on the idea of "all beings are equal", she decided to give similar congratulatory gifts regardless of her high or low position. So Man Xing immediately prepared the congratulatory gifts with ease, and took the little palace maid Qingyan for a walk.
Concubine Shen's congratulatory gift was light, but all the powerful maids around her made this trip in person, it was already to save face for Liu Shuyuan. Liu Shuyuan personally received Man Xing with a smile on her face, and then angrily tore off the veil after they left.
"Where is the imperial concubine sending the beggar? It's just such a little thing, it's not as good as the gift from Concubine Shu!" Liu Shuyuan said angrily.
The dowry maid beside her hurriedly comforted her: "Don't be angry, my lord. In fact, the gift from the imperial concubine is not too thin, even thicker than the gift from the concubine Rong from Yunxiang Palace."
When Concubine Rong was mentioned, she became angry: "Concubine Rong is inexplicable. I deliberately flattered her and she ignored me, and turned against me. What's the reason for that?"
The court lady didn't know, so she had to keep silent.
"There is also that Shen Yuqing who gives such little things to everyone, it's nothing more than those low-ranking concubines in the past. I am a fourth-rank Shuyuan, not a little nobleman of seventh or eighth rank! How can I have as many as them?"
The women in the palace place great importance on status, and the slightest difference is a big difference in their eyes.
No matter how resentful Liu Shuyuan was, Shen Guifei was not affected at all. She stretched lazily: "Today's weather is good, suitable for sleeping back in the cage."
Last night - the empress went out again over the wall, and Man Chen brought a cup of strong tea with a straight face.
Shen Yuqing took it with half-closed eyes, looking sleepy, but just after taking a sip, she almost died of suffering.
"Hey, you girl, what are you doing!"
Man Chen was not afraid of her, and said calmly: "Your Majesty, if you are sleepy, drink more tea."
Indeed, immediately sober after drinking.
Shen Yuqing stared at her speechlessly, rubbed the lord's belly angrily, and was bitten by it. I didn't bite hard, but I couldn't break it easily.
"Even you bully me." Concubine Shen was upset, and decided to halve the dried fish today.
After a while, the adult glanced at the small dried fish on the plate, and immediately meowed in protest. The cat slave lady glared at Biran, the little maid in charge of raising cats, without saying a word: "What's the matter with you? Why is there only half of my lord's dried fish left? Don't keep it private, hand it over!"
Innocent Biran: "..." You said the halving, my lord!
Man Chen, who didn't see it, pulled Bi Ran and turned around and left: "You go and fill up the dried fish."
When the people left, Concubine Shen immediately claimed credit for her lord: "Don't worry, I have already asked her to bring back the dried fish, no one dares to steal your food!"
Master Mao patted the shit shovel officer on the face, very satisfied.
——This situation is as if the cat owner entrusts a friend to send the cat to be sterilized. After the cat owner is done, the cat owner immediately rushes up to snatch the cat back, and helps the cat beat the "bad guy" friend. In the end, the cat is very grateful to the owner, and hates the dog Friends who drop its balls are average.
In short, the consequence of Concubine Shen's actions was that the innocent girl Biran was unilaterally cold-warned by the adults for three days.
Biran: Wronged.jpg
In order to prevent his noble concubine from doing any eye-catching things again, Man Chen decisively signaled Man Xing, who had just returned, to draw Shen Guifei's attention away. Man Xing gave her a dissatisfied look, why should she go? He still wanted to step on Manchen, but unfortunately he didn't dare, and finally, under Manchen's cold face like a teacher's, he walked to Shen Guifei's side in desperation.
"Your Majesty." Man Xing racked his brains and finally thought of the topic, "When I paid my respects today, why didn't I see those low-ranking concubines?"
Shen Yuqing replied casually: "There are too many people in the palace, and there is no room to sit in the side hall of Fengyi Palace. The empress has spoken, so that the concubines below the fourth rank don't have to go to pay their respects."
This kind of bloody incident is still a status symbol in the palace. Low-ranking concubines are not qualified to invite peace. Even if they go to Fengyi Palace, they can only stand and have no seats.
There were few people in the palace before, but now there are more people, this rule has been re-established.
Shen Yuqing was dozing off when she greeted her in the morning, so she didn't listen carefully to what they were arguing about, so she didn't know that they had already chanted Liu Shuyuan's bedtime affairs several times. Liu Shuyuan happened to be under the fourth rank before, so she couldn't go to pay her respects, but she escaped unharmed.
This topic ended, Man Xing thought for a while, and then picked up another topic: "Liu Shuyuan was promoted to a position after serving in bed, from the fourth rank, why didn't she go to pay her respects today?"
"Maybe it's because you're not feeling well." Shen Yuqing replied casually.
After speaking, I froze for a moment.
No wonder the group of women dissed Liu Shuyuan over and over again today, it turned out that it was because of the pride of this woman.
If you feel unwell after going to bed, you don't need to ask for peace. This rule has always existed, but most of them still don't enjoy it openly. Firstly, if you go to pay your respects, you can appreciate the envy and jealousy of other women, and secondly, if you really don't go to pay your respects, you will appear to be pampered and arrogant. After all, other people have served in bed before, and they are not as delicate as her.
Shen Yuqing shook her head, this woman is stupid enough, she might be the first one among this group of newcomers to be cannon fodder.
As soon as he arrived, he was in a hurry to stand in line, and he didn't understand the situation in the palace at all. Now that she is so proud of being favored, she is afraid that the low-ranking concubines around her will be able to murder her without the help of high-ranking concubines.
"I don't care about her, just wait for the show." Shen Yuqing stood up holding the adult, "Okay, don't talk awkwardly, if you have nothing to do, go and deliver things to the queen for me. Summer is coming, I have some ice silk here Woven cloth... ”
Shen Yuqing entered the inner hall, then took out a few pieces of cloth from the NPC's system backpack and handed them to Man Xing without changing his face.
Man Xing was slightly surprised: "This..."
It feels similar to Shen Yuqing's armguard.
Shen Yuqing's armguard was worn on her left hand, with small iron chains wrapped around it. The iron chain was made by the second lady Jiyou with Futu meteorite iron. The arm guard material outside was provided by the poisonous sister Jiyou "friendship". Organs are embedded.
In addition to protecting the arm, the main function of this arm guard is to facilitate Shen Yuqing's light work. After all, Mingjiao's light work needs the assistance of chains. And the ice silk cloth of the arm guard material is a very rare good thing.
Ice silk is invulnerable to fire and water, and in Shen Yuqing's original world, no one can get it except the disciples of the Five Poison Sect who raise the ice silkworm Gu. A thin layer can not only be used to protect the body, but also keep warm in winter and cool in summer.
However, disciples of the Five Poisons don't like to give the ice silk to others, and they can't even buy it with money.
Since her poisonous sister and friend are so stingy, Shen Yuqing had no choice but to use her ability to assassinate the king.
——If you can't get it openly, wouldn't she steal it
Therefore, the pile in Man Xing's hand is actually stolen goods...
"The clothes made of this thing are cool to wear in summer. Take them to Han Qiu and let her make two sets of underwear for the queen."
"Your Majesty, why do you have so many..." Man Xing murmured, his red lips slightly parted, his eyes absent-minded.
In Dayan, ice silk cloth is even more rare. At least in the original world, there are still a group of people who raise ice silkworm Gu to mass-produce ice silk. The ice silkworms in this world are wild animals, and humans cannot raise them, so ice silk can be met but not sought. Pass.
Now, her mother-in-law wants to use "golden cloth" to please her future daughter-in-law, and the reason is "this thing is cool to wear in summer"? !
What? ! Do you dare to say it again? ! for what? ? ? !
The author has something to say: Concubine Shen: If you are rich, you will be so willful.
Du Jie Gu Lian: Come, come, let's have a good chat, you ice silk cloth, where did you get it.
Concubine Shen: (second counseling) I surrender! I stole it! Boss, please don't slap me in the face! OTZ
—So, why are good things always in the hands of stingy and powerful people? You can't even grab it!
Strength comparison: Poison sister ranks first in force value, and Miao sister ranks third; Du sister ranks second in intelligence value, and Miao sister ranks sixth.
She is also a winner in life, compared to the girl next door who ranks 4th in strength and 12th in intelligence...
