It's too early for Qi Xue to feel relieved, is it safe to hide in the house? not at all.
When she was engrossed in reading, wouldn't it be possible that the group of palace people outside the door, who were eating inside and outside (?) would stop their real master's heart? Naturally not, the people around Qixue were brought by His Majesty the Emperor to protect her, but Concubine Yan is someone the Emperor should treat with care.
So Su Niangniang came in without any hindrance, and even when she asked everyone to keep quiet, everyone was as quiet as a chicken and dared not make a sound.
Obviously, Qi Xue was frightened by her again.
The broken girl Qixue vowed that she would never read ghost stories again.
Then the Empress Dowager stuffed a bunch of Nanfeng and Mojing's notebooks, saying that it was boring to read by herself, and wanted to develop a fan, so that they could discuss the plot and favorite characters together.
Qixue: "???"
You are really my mother!
The bosses in the palace were busy reading the script, while the little bosses in the palace tried their best to jump around, trying to attract the attention of the emperor boss.
Although, the boss didn't pay attention to them.
Summer Palace is a good place, it is very cool in summer and the scenery is beautiful. It's a pity that His Majesty the Emperor doesn't like it, because here, he can't secretly go to the night meeting with Su Qiaorong.
Regarding this, Su Niangniang said that she didn't care. She is now obsessed with novels, what is a man? Is it important
Fiction and men, she chose fiction.
His Majesty the Emperor was so indignant that he simply gave up on himself and became obsessed with novels.
But when he is alone, there will always be some people who don't have good eyesight and insist on coming up to show his courtesy; The empress went to chat with the empress empress", or she was kicked out by Shen Yuqing, who disliked him for disturbing the two people's world.
There is no other way, His Majesty the Emperor can only go to Concubine Wei.
But it seemed embarrassing to be speechless with Concubine Wei, so the emperor gave her half of the book he had brought. In the end, the two faced each other drinking tea, eating snacks, and reading novels.
The days are quite pleasant.
But he can't be addicted to novels every day. When it's time to cultivate feelings with the concubines, he still needs to cultivate them, and he can't hide them all the time.
"Your Majesty, Yu Zhaoyi is here." The chief eunuch said outside the door.
His Majesty the Emperor frowned and put down the novel in his hand.
"Why is she here?"
"He said he made cold cakes by himself and brought them to you and Concubine Wei to taste."
Ever since concubine Xi was scolded by the emperor for "hands-on" cooking, it has been a long time since no one in the palace made such a fuss. Yu Zhaoyi is not stupid, if she does this now, she will definitely not cheat again, this cold cake is definitely made by herself.
That being the case, it is not easy for the emperor to stop people from coming in. He rubbed his temples with a headache, Concubine Wei had thoughtfully picked up several script books and put them away, lest Yu Zhaoyi find the emperor's casual side when he came in.
Soon, Empress Zhaoyi was let in.
"Concubine sees Your Majesty, sees Concubine Wei." Yu Zhaoyi brought a little maid in, and the food box with cold cakes was held by the maid.
"Yu Zhaoyi doesn't need to be too polite." The emperor raised his hand, "Sit down."
Originally, Yu Zhaoyi was somewhat stingy and narrow-minded, otherwise she would not have confronted Concubine Mi head-on. However, since she was framed by Concubine Xi and then punished and grounded for several months, she has changed a bit.
At the beginning, he had a gloomy personality and didn't like to contact people. At first, everyone thought that this person was going to be crippled, so what if she was released, but with such a gloomy appearance from now on, the emperor probably didn't want to talk to her.
But I don't know if it was because of the previous general election in the palace that stimulated her, but she has slowly changed since then. For example, now, she can't find a gloomy appearance, but is gentle and docile, and she can't see the shadow of Yu Zhaoyi from before at all.
"My concubine has changed a lot." His Majesty the Emperor looked at her.
Yu Zhaoyi was taking dishes from the food box, when she heard this, her heart skipped a beat, and she paused. After a while, she pretended to be innocent and smiled at the emperor.
"The concubine has grown up, she can't be as ignorant as before."
The emperor was noncommittal, but he didn't bother with this issue any more.
Concubine Wei smiled slightly, and smoothed things over for the embarrassed Yu Zhaoyi: "Your Majesty, don't bother to talk too much, you have to taste the cold cake made by sister Yu. It's getting hotter these days, so eating some cold cake is a good way to beat the heat." .”
As she spoke, she crossed over to the emperor and picked up a piece to taste it.
This cold cake is not the kind in Sichuan Province, but a snack from Yanjing in the north. The sweet glutinous rice is wrapped with red bean paste filling, which leaves a fragrance on the lips and teeth after a bite.
Although Yu Zhaoyi was jealous of this Concubine Wei, she didn't have any hostility. Since the other party helped her out, she didn't care if he ate a piece first.
Especially Concubine Wei knew how to be a human being. After taking a sip, she immediately praised Yu Zhaoyi for her good craftsmanship, which made Yu Zhaoyi smile slightly.
She has been learning this cold cake for three months, and now she has finally mastered it, so she dares to bring it to His Majesty the Emperor to taste. The imperial chef in the palace is superb in craftsmanship, if the food he made is not as good as the imperial chef's, he really dare not serve it out and make a fool of himself.
Seeing this, His Majesty the Emperor also tasted a piece, and had no choice but to praise the deliciousness.
"My concubine has a heart." His Majesty's expression softened a lot, and he gently held Yu Zhaoyi's slender hand.
Naturally, a concubine from a family background doesn't know how to make pastries. From this point of view, Yu Zhaoyi has worked hard to learn after entering the palace. Although the purpose is to compete for favor, people with a venomous tongue can tell whether food is made with care and whether they really like making food.
The emperor's impression of Yu Zhaoyi was a little better. Since Yu Zhaoyi was so troublesome, he didn't mind pampering her in the near future. It just solved his troubles. If you only pet one, you can be less intimate with a few women.
In fact, after much deliberation, Yu Zhaoyi is indeed a good candidate.
"Ms. Zhaoyi hasn't done anything bad since she entered the palace." When the emperor left with Yu Zhaoyi, Concubine Wei asked the dark guard to come down to eat an ice bowl, which was what the dark guard told her.
The dark guard girl also worked very hard, wearing dark clothes on a hot day, which absorbs heat especially. It's okay to follow the high-ranking concubines. There is an ice basin in the room, which is enough. It's a bit difficult to follow the low-ranking concubines, but fortunately, they have internal energy to protect their bodies, so they should not be invaded by cold and heat.
Most afraid of those restless people, Recheng likes to run around the world like this, trying to meet the emperor by chance. This kind of person can forget about suffering from heatstroke, and even implicate the hidden guards and palace servants who went out with her.
Ever since Concubine Wei knew that there was a secret guard girl by her side, she liked to ask the secret guard girl to come down and talk when no one was around.
The dark guards were well informed, and the communication between them was quick and convenient. Concubine Wei also had fun listening to her gossip about the palace when she was bored.
"The worse one is her younger sister Xibi." After eating the ice bowl, Miss Anwei saw that Concubine Wei was interested in this, so she was willing to say a few more words, "Miss Xibi did a lot of bad things behind her back, planting blame What, very good at."
For example, when Yu Zhaoyi was grounded before, it was concubine Xi who plotted against Yu Zhaoyi. In fact, it was originally Yu Zhaoyi who wanted to plot against Concubine Xi, but Concubine Xi plotted against her, and with An Jieyu's own cooperation, it turned out that Yu Zhaoyi pushed down the pregnant An Jieyu, causing her to give birth prematurely.
It's hard to say who is right and who is wrong in this matter, but Concubine Wei didn't expect that this was Yu Zhaoyi's first assassination attempt, and it failed.
Concubine Xi did many other things afterwards, such as slandering Concubine Shen Gui for accepting bribes.
"First time?" Concubine Wei was surprised, "Is it the first time?"
She thought that Yu Zhaoyi was already a veteran of Gongdou like this.
The dark guard girl smiled. She is not outstanding, and she can't be found in the crowd, but she has two small dimples when she smiles, which is very cute.
"Yu Zhaoyi really didn't do anything. She used to be a bit stupid. When she was upset, she confronted people directly. In the past, because she had a relatively high status in the palace, it would be fine to confront her. At that time Apart from the Queen, Concubine and Concubine Shu, there is only one Mrs. Wan, Mrs. Wan is aloof from the world, and she will not make up for it if she is bullied by her. She has a low background, although she holds grudges, she dare not touch the right minister Yu's family people."
As for the remaining three bosses, Yu Zhaoyi won't provoke them, she knows she can't beat them.
The only time she missed was when she went to beat Concubine Mi who had just entered the palace. As a result, Concubine Mi had a bad temper and immediately slapped her. Later, no matter how unhappy she was, she seldom troubled Concubine Mi, knowing that she couldn't deal with this person.
Compared to many women in the palace, she lived a very frank life.
"But I heard that during the general election that year, her younger sister, concubine Xi, suddenly fell ill and couldn't run for the election, so she waited for three years for no reason. It was rumored in the palace that she did it, wasn't it?" Concubine Wei asked curiously.
The secret guard shook his head: "It's not her, but it has something to do with her. In fact, it was her mother, Madam Yu, who did it. Madam, you also know that Xipin grew up with the old lady and was not close to Madam Yu. Madam Yu hates her mother-in-law , I even hate this little girl who has left her heart."
The dark guard didn't know exactly what the disease was, but she guessed that it was Madam Yu who caused concubine Xi to develop a rash due to allergies and had to give up the general election.
"Madam Yu taught Yu Zhaoyi some dark tricks, but Yu Zhaoyi seemed to be born with a blind eye, so she didn't learn well. So Madam Yu arranged a dowry maid beside her. This court lady is proficient in this and can help her do it."
It's a pity that Yu Zhaoyi felt that this method was as annoying as her petty younger sister, so she didn't reuse that court lady.
Later, she found that her younger sister climbed faster than her when she entered the palace, and her position was even with her, so she couldn't sit still. It happened that my mother was suppressed by the old lady during that time, and she couldn't even come to the important palace banquet, so she simply died as a living horse doctor and tried various methods to frame Xi concubine.
However, this one and only test failed. Not only did he not knock down his sister, but he also put himself in it.
"Afterwards, Yu Zhaoyi felt that the court lady who knew how to use insidious tricks was useless, and petty framing was really not flattering and not a good thing, so it was completely useless."
In order to prevent herself from being completely rejected by Yu Zhaoyi, the dowry maid hurriedly gave Yu Zhaoyi other attention. Although she would lose a big advantage if she didn't play conspiracies, but people who like to play conspiracies have good brains, so it is not difficult to think of other ways.
She quickly made another plan for Yu Zhaoyi, asking Yu Zhaoyi to change her gloomy appearance and start to pretend to be docile and respectful.
No matter how much the emperor likes wayward women, there are too many wayward concubines in his harem. There was Concubine Mi, the imperial concubine of the Ming Dynasty, and Concubine Yun later. If she continues to be willful, she will only be slapped to death on the beach by Concubine Gong and Concubine Yun. In short, this person is full, and it is not suitable for her to continue to share a share.
But other than that, doesn't the emperor have any other favorite characters
There is. Look at Concubine Wei, who has quickly become a concubine after two years in the palace, she has a gentle smile, obedience and gentleness. And there is only one woman like this in the palace.
If there is another one, it is not too much at all. Moreover, Concubine Wei is really docile and doesn't care much about favors. After she helped the queen before, she hugged the thighs of the queen and concubine camp. It depends on the two big bosses, not the emperor's favor at all, anyone with a discerning eye can see it.
Therefore, Concubine Wei wouldn't mind if Yu Zhaoyi collided with her, and maybe she would help her when she saw that she had changed.
Yu Zhaoyi also figured it out now, instead of comparing her IQ with her sister and being crushed, she might as well grab the emperor's favor obediently. Anyway, my younger sister likes to do tricks behind her back the most. Who knows when the boat will capsize, she just needs to wait for Concubine Xi to kill herself.
For the concubine who settled down in peace, His Majesty the Emperor gave him 120,000 points of tolerance and kindness.
He just likes to be obedient and not noisy.
That night, His Majesty the Emperor rested in Yu Zhaoyi's room.
The next day, His Majesty decreed that Jin Yu Zhaoyi would be Concubine Mei, which would be regarded as restoring her original status and title.
When Concubine Mei was awarded the title of "Mei" last time, she was ridiculed by her own sister, saying that "Concubine Mei" sounds the same as "No Pin". Concubine Mei was very angry at that moment, but this time when she heard such words again, she just smiled lightly.
The title is the real thing, even if the title is not good, so what? It's better than no title.
What's more, Concubine Mei isn't ugly either.
Eyebrows always have a special place in ancient love stories. Raising eyebrows together, drawing eyebrows for Iraq, etc., are very beautiful and romantic stories.
The emperor gave her this title, maybe it was a manifestation of favor
So Concubine Mei was not only not angry, she also said to her younger sister in a friendly manner: "Since Your Majesty has given this title, it naturally has a meaning. Sister, you say 'Concubine Mei' does not sound good, is it a title given by His Majesty?" Any comments?"
Concubine Xi stopped talking immediately.
She didn't expect that the stupid older sister, who used to be crazy at one point, would become smarter and learn to fight with words. The smile on her face was a little unnatural, obviously not very happy.
"Sister naturally doesn't dare to have any opinions." Concubine Xi twitched the corners of her mouth, "I'm a little tired, sister, I'll go back to rest first."
Concubine Mei didn't insist on letting her go, and graciously let her go.
After they left, she nodded slightly at the dowry maid: "It's better for you. Although there are many people in this palace who like to frame people, but after thinking about it, I still think it's not right. It's not that I didn't report the time. I realized that since you are alive, it is better to do less sinful things, so as not to pay off your debts on Huangquan Road after being buried. What do you think?"
"Your Majesty is wise." The palace maid hurriedly bowed her head in response.
After beating the maid, Concubine Mei went into the room and had her nails repainted.
In the past, she liked to use brighter colors, but now she thinks about it, but it is not appropriate. A gentle and submissive person shouldn't have such a flamboyant and sharp color. She asked someone to change the transparent nail polish directly, and apply a thin layer of it, so that the originally dull nails only look shiny, that's all.
Concubine Mei looked at her nails carefully, and nodded with satisfaction: "That's how it should be. You also look at and pick out the clothes in the palace's room. Keep the ones that fit, and put away the ones that don't fit. And jewelry... . . . ”
She gave instructions one by one, adding two missing sentences from time to time.
Naturally, the movement here cannot be concealed from the emperor, His Majesty the Emperor listened to the report from the hidden guards together with a few bosses, and while listening to Concubine Shen Gui, he was grilling rice. After listening, she was full, threw away the bowl and chopsticks, touched her stomach, and yawned contentedly.
"Are you a pig?" His Majesty the Emperor squinted at him with distaste, "You get sleepy after eating, and you eat when you wake up."
Concubine Shen sneered: "Pigs don't have daily entertainment, are you happy reading the storybook? Do you want the queen mother to give you some polished mirrors and Nanfeng storybook?"
His Majesty the Emperor: "..."
"Huh?" The Empress Dowager immediately regained her spirits when she heard it, "The emperor also wants to see it?"
The emperor quickly shook his head: "I don't want to."
It's too much to hurt each other, he can't bear it.
Looking at the hard-working younger sister beside him, His Majesty the Emperor didn't want to be assimilated by brainwashing at all.
The empress dowager looked regretful, and after drinking tea, she went back to the back room to rest. Before she left, she did not forget to take her silly daughter away.
"Come on, I'm still full!" Qi Xue protested dissatisfied.
The queen mother stroked her daughter's head affectionately: "Son, eating too much will make you fat, let's go with the queen mother, let's chat."
Qi Xue could think about it, she would rather become a pig.
However, her sentence that eating too much makes her fat easily hit the empress' pain point. She immediately put down her chopsticks, thinking of her small belly that already had a tendency to rebound.
Last year, she was fattened up by Shen Yuqing, and later Shen Yuqing taught her some moves to exercise her body. Recently, she was lazy and didn't do much, and she ate a lot, so she started to gain weight again.
I must make up for it when I go back today. The empress thought to herself.
Seeing that he had nothing to do, the dark guard left silently.
Seeing this, Concubine Shen brought the topic back to Yu Zhaoyi: "Yu Zhaoyi was quite an eyesore before, but now it's much better."
Yu Zhaoyi, who used to be brainless, and Yu Zhaoyi, who was gloomy, are both unsightly and uncomfortable to watch. Although she is intentionally messing with the character design now, she is willing to change the character design, which is better than maintaining the original unpleasant appearance, at least she will not feel uncomfortable when she looks at it.
Fucking people is actually not a big deal, there are very few women in the palace who don't put on airs, and they are all for the sake of favor and profit. Yu Zhaoyi just wants to make her life better, which is better than those who use this to plot more.
For example, the concubine Xian in the palace who wants to be the queen mother has a big appetite.
His Majesty the Emperor also agreed: "It does look a lot pleasing to the eye. Although she is following Weiwei, she doesn't look very similar."
Both of them have their own characteristics, Weiwei is really gentle, and Yu Zhaoyi has a positive attitude.
Seriously earn a living, earnestly please the bosses, just like an employee who regards himself as a small employee and the emperor as his boss, trying to stay in the highly competitive company of the palace and strive for better treatment.
"That's not bad." Concubine Shen Gui thought thoughtfully.
So that's the end of the discussion about Yu Zhaoyi. Since both the emperor and concubine are happy to see the success, the bosses will naturally not stop Yu Zhaoyi from making such a fuss. It's just a pity that she didn't continue to fight with her sister.
"Originally, I planned to wait for the two sisters to bite the dog, and then use this to attack the Yu family." The emperor said regretfully.
Although Yu Dang, who had lost the support of the Soviet Party, was calmer, he was still a little noisy.
The situation that the emperor wanted was that the Yu party would also be silent, and then the remaining members of the two families had better turn against each other.
There are checks and balances in the court, and this checks and balances naturally does not mean the checks and balances between the royalist party and the traitor party. The emperor does not need to suppress those who support him for the sake of balance. This is putting the cart before the horse. He needs to suppress other parties and let them check each other.
Originally, because the royalist party was too strong, the other two parties had to cooperate. The emperor worried that even if Yu Dang was suppressed, the two parties would continue to cooperate, so he wanted to throw dirty water on Yu Dang.
—Concubine Xi has framed many people by jumping like this, so if she said that concubine Xi did what happened to Concubine De back then, would the Su party believe it
What happened to Concubine De at that time still feels something is wrong to the Su party, thinking that there is something hidden behind it. Since they want to dig out the truth so much, let's give them a "truth".
Believe it or not, it doesn't really matter.
The emperor wanted to alienate their relationship, but if the alienation failed, it didn't matter. Anyway, after the Yu Party is weakened, the two parties together will only turn a small shrimp into a small fish. But it would be best if it could be an enemy.
Although, the concubine Xi probably didn't want to take the pot from the sky.
