Concubine De looked at her casually and said, "It is the rule of the Xun clan that if you are hired into the palace without permission, you must start with the selection of girls. Bu Nao and the others have been serving the emperor for some time." Many of them are pregnant. Could you ask for a higher price? "
Gu Zhen said "hmm" and asked the others, "What should we say?"
Only then did Yun Fenghuang answer: "It's all done."
Seeing her opening her mouth, the other concubines also followed her, all expressing their approval, their expressions and tone showing that they didn't care.
Didong Xu Xuxin and others knelt upright according to the rules and nodded slightly to show respect. They couldn't see the specific situation, but their indifference and indifference could also be felt from their tone. This was true since they entered the palace. This was the first time I encountered such a situation. Even the most calm person couldn't help but show a little hesitation.
Speaking of which, those ten people were spoiled by the imperial attendants.
Those who serve the emperor are all carefully selected, which is very strange. After all, those who are near the water and towers get the moon first. Who doesn't want to be able to serve in front of the emperor? Especially Chunjia, who is so young and strong-looking, he is the kind of person who needs them to find a boss in two years. Even if you were lucky enough to be picked at the beginning, you wouldn't be able to bear it and you would be pushed away early in the morning.
Those people who serve the emperor are the best at concealing their thoughts, and they are always smart in doing things.
After all, it’s hard for anyone to talk about the ups and downs in the palace.
When Chunjia was suppressed by the Ji family, who could have imagined how many months he had? Thinking back to when Yun Fenghuang first entered the palace, who would have thought that such a mistress who wanted family status but not family background, and who was not second to none in terms of beauty would be so popular that Zhiming would care about her so much
The imperial attendants have seen and heard too many such examples, so unless they have a necessary request, they will not offend anyone rashly, even if they are of low status.
The most important thing is that if they are offended, they will not do anything in the open to let others find out...
Therefore, the ten people of Xu Xuxin were a little nervous when they arrived. Later, they found that no matter whether the emperor or the imperial attendants were wrong, they were very gentle and considerate, and they unknowingly developed a delicate temperament.
At that time, the concubines were discussing their arrangements leisurely, such as "where to put those pots of flowers", "just put anything there", "anyway, it's not anything important", how could there be no gap
In particular, the newly promoted Concubine Shao said: "It's all done no matter what, but can your Majesty please hurry up? When she came out tomorrow, the fourth princess grabbed the hem of my skirt and refused to let it go. I comforted me for a long time, and she I gave up reluctantly. I was afraid that I would be late when I returned home, and the fourth princess would cry if I didn’t ask for help!”
The concubines all laughed, and the queen asked with concern: "The fourth princess Ruming is so attached to me? Is that really a good thing?"
"Is that possible?" Yun Fenghuang picked up a cup of tea and took a sip, and said slowly, "Is it possible that Concubine Shao paid for it with her life? I think back then, I heard that the fourth princess was in bad condition, so I took it. I was shocked when I heard that she had gone to take care of the fourth princess personally. At that time, I was very annoyed for a long time and felt that she didn’t know the importance of it... "
"Sister, it's nice to talk about Concubine Shao!" Concubine De covered her mouth and smiled, saying, "When the King of Jin and the King of Qin were in the palace, why did you ask to take care of it personally? Chen Jing and the Qing people asked you to , then you really have thought of all the ways!"
Otherwise, the concubines seemed to have forgotten that Xu Xuxin and others were waiting for them, and they talked and laughed as if no one else was around. It wasn't until Xu Xuxin's forehead was covered with cold sweat and his whole body was shaky, that someone suddenly remembered and said: "My queen. , please let them deal with it first? Otherwise, Concubine Shao will be in a hurry to leave, and we also have something to tell our concubine."
The queen then said: "Then give them a royal gift."
Someone reminded me: "Mother, there is someone who is already happy."
"Then Fengyi... Yes, Fengyi seems to be a little lower than Yuwan?" Gu Zhen asked sideways, "Is there something wrong with Yuwan's head?"
"Chenggui? Talented person? Baolin?" The imperial concubine and others looked at each other, saying that they could not remember clearly. After all, in their eyes, Jieyu and others were not concubines, so how could they remember so much
Finally, a palace concubine stood up and timidly reminded her, and then the queen said: "Then just be Baolin."
Gu Zhen didn't want to worry about arranging a place to stay at the end, so he directly asked the concubines: "Let's see if there is enough room in our palace to pick them up?"
Hearing this, the faces of the Xu sisters changed slightly.
That situation made the concubines laugh for a while, what? Afraid of taking the lead and snatching the child
Is it important that a son from a poor family wants to become a concubine as soon as he enters the palace
Yun Fenghuang is so legendary, could he start from Baolin
That child doesn't matter where they live. It's not their turn to raise it anyway!
"My dear, you know, there are not many vacancies for me in the palace. I really can't find anyone." Yun Fenghuang was the first to express his opinion. After that, the new concubines Cui Lianye, De Fei, Shao Concubine and others all shook their heads. , the kind who don’t want to ask for new people at all.
It was true that Concubine Xian and Concubine Mu hesitated and asked for help respectively.
Among them, Concubine Xian asked for Gong Caishun, while Concubine Mu asked for Xu Xuxin.
Did the concubine see their intentions clearly? The concubine Xian entered the palace late and was also young. She had lost two children before, so the emperor only visited her very rarely. Please ask Gong Caisun if he wants Chunjia to go. More often, can you try to conceive it yourself
As for Concubine Mu, she simply wanted to take advantage.
His child died before he was born, he had a falling out with his cousin the queen, and he fell out of favor. No matter how naive a person is, he wants to be realistic. No, I think it is unlikely that she will be blessed by the emperor and have an heir in a short time. Now that Xu Xuxin is pregnant and brought back to her palace, the child will be born for her.
Concubine Mu was very nervous when she spoke. Fortunately, the queen was soft-hearted. Although she didn't wink at her, she didn't mean to stop her.
Maybe Xu Xuxin himself, after hesitating, did not immediately kowtow to express gratitude like Gong Caisun and walk behind Concubine Xian, but instead whispered: "I have admired Concubine Xian for a long time!"
That makes Yun Fenghuang a little bit dumbfounded, why? If you don't look for trouble yourself, then do you take the initiative to find trouble at your door
In the past, she was very good at stirring up troubles, but now, she said in a lazy tone: "I just made it clear that there are too many people in Xuanqing Palace and I can't stay here."
"...No." A snicker came from behind Xu Xuxin. It sounded like Wen Mingcui. Her face instantly turned red. Without saying anything, she kowtowed to Concubine Mu who looked a little gloomy. Then she stood up and walked to her carefully. behind.
There were eight people left in Donglai, but no one spoke for a moment. The queen showed a headache, turned to her attendants and said: "Let's see which palace is more empty, and let them live together. What happened in the palace in the past six months , I am so exhausted that I really don’t have the energy to make more arrangements for them.”
The waiter didn't say anything. He didn't want to see anyone, but he said calmly: "His place is very empty, so let them all go to his place!"
Hearing this, the eight newcomers looked very calm, but the concubines all looked strange.
Even the queen, who just said "I just want to give us something casually" couldn't help but coughed dryly and said, "Concubine An, I don't want to be joking."
"Isn't it possible?" Concubine An walked to her seat with a cold expression, not caring about the looks from all directions, and said calmly, "Is Huzhu Palace not empty? Your Majesty just said that we should find an empty palace for them to live together. Isn’t Huzhu Palace just right? Doesn’t the empress feel that he is inferior and has wronged the newlyweds?”
Gu Zhen said with some embarrassment: "Don't shut up. I am not a royal concubine. How can these newcomers compare with me? Just... I have been clean for two years, and suddenly there are so many people here. Will it be unreasonable?" Habit?"
In fact, she didn't care about the life and death of those newcomers, especially the pregnant Xu Xuxin who was begged away by Concubine Mu. The emperor didn't care about the eight remaining Donglai, and she didn't care either.
The key is that Concubine An's record of killing legs is too brilliant.
Over the years, except for one Yun Fenghuang, none of the concubines assigned to her legs had a happy ending.
Basically, the more you sigh, the faster the Emperor likes to die.
Even if the Emperor likes her, she will not die slowly... After all, in Yuan Niang's eyes, even if she wants to be the emperor's concubine, she will deserve to die if she competes with her to steal the father-in-law Xiangji! ! !
As for whether the concubine took the initiative or was willing to do so, or she couldn't help herself, I'm sorry, Yuan Yuniang is worried.
The new batch of newcomers were not welcomed by everyone, and they disappeared one after another after entering the palace. Quan thought that their fate was bad, and the queen would not feel any resentment even if she was a rare soft-hearted person in a high position.
Anyway, it's not her legs.
The key is not, I went to Huzhu Palace and was taken care of by Concubine An. Then...
When the news spread, it was not thought that the queen did it on purpose and wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife.
It seems that her middle palace has no tolerance for others.
"As the saying goes, it is quiet and inactive." The queen hoped that Concubine An would stop making trouble, but Concubine An would not do it. "It is precisely because there was no movement in his place like a dead person in the past two years, so she asked the newcomers to come over to make it more lively."
Gu Zhen had a headache, and Dong looked at Yun Fenghuang consciously.
Yun Fenghuang thought for a while and said: "An Fei, I also told you that my place was very quiet before. Even if I was very quiet and restless at that time, it was too lively for me. I couldn't bear it? It's better to do it step by step, first Arrange for three or two people to go over and accompany me. When I look back, I think it will be more lively, so I can add more people."
Let the Qing people ask, "Ask the newcomers in Didong, who is willing to serve Concubine An?"
Didong's beauty turned pale early in the morning!
Although it has been said that Yuan Yuniang has monopolized the emperor's heart for several years, the emperor's eldest son is only seven years old, and the rumors of Huzhu Palace being a concubine from a poor family are unlikely to disappear without a trace.
They had been in the palace for a few months, and no matter how ignorant they were, they had heard some rumors... If Yuan Yuniang was very pampered at that time, in fact, the palace people in Taichu Palace would not have said that much to them.
But because Yuan Yuniang has fallen out of favor and is at odds with Yun Fenghuang, who is now favored, and even her patron, the Queen Mother Yuan, has left Fuyang County, the people of Didong naturally have no taboos about talking about her.
Have all the newlyweds heard about Yuan Yuniang's neatness in cleaning up the concubines? At that time, everyone in the Huzhu Palace could not avoid it!
Among them, Wen Mingcui reacted the fastest and immediately threw herself to the ground and said: "I am stupid and have thick legs and clumsy feet. I'm afraid I won't be able to serve Concubine An!"
Wen Shijiang was startled for a moment and then kowtowed: "I am... I am not the same!"
The others were a step slower, but they immediately rushed to express that they were not qualified to serve the noble Concubine An!
Na Dongzi, the eyes of the concubines looking at Concubine An were even more subtle.
Tomorrow will be the fourteenth year of Chunjia. Even seven years have passed. Concubine An's name is still so prominent. Is it really...
Concubine An had a sullen face and ignored the refusals of the newcomers in Didong. She turned her head and looked at the queen and concubine in turn, and said slowly: "He asked those eight people to go to Huzhu Palace. How will we treat him?"
