Yun Fenghuang also looked at him with a half-smile but not a smile: "Your Majesty is tired of seeing my concubine's old face every day."
"Are you talking about me in a roundabout way?" Chunjia's heart tightened, and she asked calmly, "You know clearly that I am several years older than you, but you still say such things. Do you think you dislike me for being old?"
This bastard emperor.
Yun Fenghuang cursed secretly, he just knew how to beat himself up!
"I'm just afraid that Ruigu, who is young, won't be able to keep her temper, will turn around and act recklessly, causing harm to herself without saying anything, but teaching my uncle, what should I do?" Then she coughed dryly, pretending not to hear the words, and spoke slowly. He said, "You must know that among the newcomers this time, the daughters of the Xie family and the Jiang family all live in the same palace as Tianjieyu. Ruigu considers herself to be my close cousin by blood, so she specially requested to come to Xuanqing Palace. Concubine. She is definitely right, but she is also worried that this approach will make her appear different from other newcomers? After all, the people in the palace here are several years older than her, and they have been in the palace for several years, and they have already gone their separate ways. With a companion, how can we go with her when she comes out of the blue? Maybe it is for this reason that Ruigu came here to pay my respects to me and seek help. "
"It's not that I don't help her, but that my cousin is too impulsive."
"These people enter the palace just to serve His Majesty. Whether they are concubines or concubines, it is a matter of time before they go to bed."
"This matter has been arranged by the Queen. Even I can only suggest from the side and dare not say anything. It is better for her to follow His Majesty directly."
"It's a good thing that Zhao Qing is here, otherwise it would spread out, and it would be a big deal for people to laugh at me for not following the rules. Don't misunderstand that my two sisters are provoking the queen... I just seconded the queen's bed list, Rui. I got there first! What is this?"
Chunjia nodded while listening, with a smile on her face. She obviously didn't believe it at all and felt that the imperial concubine was just jealous.
He couldn't see his cousin getting close to him.
Because he liked Yun Fenghuang, he was not disgusted by this. Instead, he felt that the imperial concubine valued him.
After all, Yun Fenghuang even had to fight over who looked like King Jin, but when had she ever argued about who the ten princes looked like, right
The imperial concubine still values me very much in her heart.
The emperor was in a good mood after thinking this, and followed her words: "What you said makes sense. This Jiang family is indeed young and ignorant, and you will need to teach him more in the future. Well, this time, the servant No matter how the queen arranges the bed, let her be the last one."
Anyway, Chunjia didn't have any feelings for Jiang Ruigu, but just because she was talking to Zhaoqing, the palace attendants in Huanhua Palace didn't do anything, thinking that the imperial concubine would look at her differently, so they didn't expel her.
If he could bury the Jiang family and gain the concubine's happiness, Chunjia would not hesitate at all.
As a result, just when he felt that he was reciprocating the favor, Yun Fenghuang rolled his eyes and said, "Your majesty, are you doing this to help your cousin gain a better memory, or to make me lose face? I have already said that Rui Gu is close to me by blood. My cousin, she is the only concubine among the newlyweds who stayed in the Xuanqing Palace. If His Majesty has not summoned her for a long time... What do you think when you turn around and call the outside world? Ruigu has just entered the palace, and she has a concubine watching her, so she can't offend her. Are you going to kill Your Majesty? Of course, only if I have offended you will I ask you to beat me in this way!"
Chunjia didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said: "How is it possible? Who doesn't know, I have never come to you more times."
"But I'm not the only one who lives in the Huanqing Palace." Yun Fenghuang said resentfully, "For example, if you come here today, I'm not here, and you haven't left either. Didn't you see Shi Fifteen? There's also Zhaoqing here. side."
So, who knew that your diligence in coming here was not for your own flesh and blood
"Then Ahuang, how do you think I'll treat you?" The emperor felt that the imperial concubine might be causing trouble again, so he couldn't help but smile and said, "Then let's follow the queen's arrangement?"
Yun Fenghuang reluctantly agreed, and then requested: "It's just that Ruigu is my cousin after all, although I..."
He bit his lip and said, "...I'm afraid that if I spoil her too much, I'll become even more ignorant, but thinking of my uncle's care, why don't you, Your Majesty, go take a look at her when you leave later? Just take a look."
Chunjia didn't take Jiang Ruigu to heart. He was very disapproving of it at first. He thought that not only himself, but also the imperial concubine should not be guilty of such a naughty girl who entered the palace for her talent. She had to think hard and work hard for herself.
But when he thought about it, Jiang Jin not only loved Yun Fenghuang very much in the past, but also the important thing was that he had contributed a lot to the collection of the remains of the Xie clan.
Including Xie Jian's body, before Xie Wuzheng, Xie Xiaoyu and others had time to rush back, it was Jiang Jin who came forward.
It's no wonder that even if the imperial concubine doesn't like Jiang Ruigu, she still has to take care of her dignity.
Although the emperor thought the favor was too great, he was willing to indulge the imperial concubine, so after thinking for a while, he agreed.
So, after a while, watching the dusk fall, Chunjia went to Jiang Ruigu's residence before leaving Xuanqing Palace.
As soon as I entered, I saw Jiang Ruigu dressed up, her cheeks full of spring, and her eyes watery as she came towards her.
The emperor wasn't very interested in her at first, but now that he saw this look, he was even less interested. He just felt that even if the imperial concubine over there thought you were a little impatient, she still specifically advised me to come and show you dignity. It would be better for you, because she wanted to give up on the spot. Have I blessed you
He was usually gentle and generous towards his concubines, but at this moment, he subconsciously restrained himself a bit and appeared more majestic. After sitting down, he called out and asked quietly... Well, Jiang Jin, and then he was concerned about Xie's current situation. As a concubine, Jiang Ruigu could still tell a few things about her biological father, but she was a little speechless about Xie's current situation.
There was no way, her own mother was just a concubine of Jiang Jin. Although she was still favored, she was not as lucky as Xie Fenghuan to be raised by her aunt.
Therefore, they usually live in seclusion and are nominally cousins with Xie Xiaoyu. In fact, the two parties have rarely seen each other.
Even when greeting each other in front of the elders during festivals and festivals, many of the Jiang family's first-born ladies were also in front of her, so it was not her turn to familiarize herself with her cousin from the Xie family.
At this moment, the answer was a bit hesitant. How could Chunjia put himself in the shoes of a new prostitute? Seeing this situation, he became even more disdainful.
I feel that the imperial concubine is usually shrewd, but she will inevitably be confused when it comes to matters involving blood relatives.
Yun Fenghuang treats Jiang Ruigu as a cousin, supporting and tolerating her in every way. Is Jiang Ruigu only thinking about the glory and wealth of climbing a dragon and a phoenix
He thought that he would have to look for an opportunity to remind the concubine, well, he couldn't speak too clearly, lest the concubine protect her cousin and complain about him... After that, he left on the pretext of being busy with government affairs.
Jiang Ruigu: "..."
Have no idea what you did wrong
The serving maids were a little scared when they saw this situation, because it was rumored in the palace that the emperor was kind-hearted and did not have many requirements for young concubines. Even if he made mistakes occasionally, as long as they were not intentional, the emperor generally did not care.
Then the master and servants didn't know that Yun Fenghuang just asked Chunjia to come over and sit there, Quan thought it was a favor for her. How could they know that the emperor himself had no intention of staying overnight
After much thought, they felt that maybe Jiang Ruigu had committed some taboo
This matter was beyond their ability to solve, so they had to go to Yun Fenghuang the next day and cry and apologize, saying that they had failed Yun Fenghuang's love.
Based on his understanding of Chunjia, Yun Fenghuang knew the general process without asking. Hearing this, he sighed and said: "I originally thought that since you came to my palace and are my closest cousin, I would always I can't ask you to lag behind others. Therefore, I specially spoke kind words to His Majesty for a long time so that you can take the lead. Who knows... Alas, Your Majesty has always been generous, and this has never happened before. He must be really busy with government affairs, since Your Majesty If there is no punishment, then at least I won’t do anything to you. Well, after your Majesty has calmed down in two days, I will go and ask again. For these two days, please stay in the house and don’t come out, otherwise I will call you Your Majesty knows, I'm afraid it will make you more and more bored."
After sending Jiang Ruigu away with just a few words, Yun Fenghuang asked Qingren, "What did you say outside?"
"Everyone outside said that Jiang Cainu really couldn't hold her up the wall. The empress personally set up a ladder for her, but asked His Majesty to leave midway. It can be seen that either she has a vulgar appearance or a rude temperament. In short, it is difficult for him to get into His Majesty's eyes. ." After the Qing Dynasty said this, he couldn't help but said, "Your Majesty, your majesty is absolutely right. This Jiang Cainu is not a great master. Even my uncle must value you more than her. …But why do we need to go around in circles like this, and even specially invite His Majesty to go there?”
Not to mention the importance of Yun Fenghuang, the concubine's niece, even before she entered the palace, she was the only biological daughter of her biological sister. In Jiang Jin's mind, her status must be higher than that of a concubine born of a pampered concubine!
After all, Jiang Jin is not his only daughter.
"If it's just for Jiang Ruigu, is it worth my attention?" Yun Fenghuang snorted and said, "What do you know? I am doing this for Your Majesty."
Seeing that the Qing people were confused, she sighed, "I, the Queen, and other high-ranking officials know all about the new people entering the palace this time. As for Your Majesty, do you really think he doesn't know anything? So others can just pay it forward. After all, Your Majesty Now that they are not in their hearts, they dare not ask for His Majesty's favor. But I am different... I can't be like the others, leading newcomers to fight and commanding from behind the scenes? If so, what will Your Majesty do? think?"
Chunjia is not a fool, this is a master who actually fought his way out of a crisis-ridden situation. Among all the Nine-Five Supremes in the past and present, he is extremely talented. He was often deceived by Yun Fenghuang, firstly because Yunfenghuang pretended to be too early, and secondly because he actually cared about the imperial concubine in his heart and was emotionally willing to believe in the imperial concubine, so he didn't want to think too much or go into details.
But if Yun Fenghuang is not even willing to pretend, even if he is willing to be coaxed by the imperial concubine, how can he be coaxed
Therefore, the other concubines and the emperor had no interest in them and did not care about their sincerity. It was okay for them to be in high positions for themselves.
But Yun Fenghuang still wanted to show the emperor that she was sincere to him... So, would a concubine who truly loves the emperor be happy to see a newcomer enter the palace and share her favor? Would you be willing to take the initiative to introduce your sisters or even nieces to the emperor? !
Of course, the most difficult thing for women these days is this: if you are not jealous, people will think that you are not sincere to him. If you are too jealous, others will think you are too jealous.
You have to be careful.
Over the years that the concubine has been in the palace, she has gained experience in these details.
She is now using Jiang Ruigu to hint her true love for Chunjia. Without Jiang Ruigu, there would be others anyway. In short, she must let Chunjia know that she is sincere to him.
Otherwise, it’s just Jiang Ruigu, so why would she be playing tricks on her? Any palace servant under his command can be sent away.
When the people of Qing Dynasty heard this, they also sighed and stopped talking.
Yun Fenghuang turned his head and asked, "What else?"
"...No." Qingren pursed his lips and said in a low voice, "I just feel...it's so hard for your Majesty."
"A scholar has lived in poverty for ten years, and a soldier has fought hundreds of battles to the death. How many people can take the glory, wealth, status and power of this world for granted when they are born?" Yun Fenghuang said calmly while holding on to the railing, gazing at the desolate scenery in the courtyard. , "Is it easy for Your Majesty to reach this day? Thinking about it this way, I don't think it's too hard. After all, I have chosen to be more comfortable, but I don't want to."
Wouldn't it be easier if she was willing to give up trying to capture Qingci Palace
You can even be more willful in many things.
but…
She doesn't.
