Chapter 384 Title

Two days later, the empress sent someone to invite Yun Fenghuang and Concubine De to Yanfu Palace to discuss the status of the new couple.

According to the agreement, there should be three concubines for this year's picker, which was pre-determined: Xie Runan, Huang Shi and Jiang Mingdan.

Neither the queen nor the noble concubine had any objection to this, only Concubine De, in front of the queen, acted like a baby with Yun Fenghuang half-truly, saying: "The younger sisters of these picking girls also have acquaintances, but they are just like younger sisters. Stupid, and not pretty enough, so she was forced to be compared. Now the empress wants her younger sister to come over for details, and the concubine feels ashamed. It is simply not clear from the outside, otherwise, the younger sister does not know how to explain to her elder sister? Didn't you embarrass your sister?"

Gu Zhen looked at the tiredness, and said to himself that you can only rely on hugging the imperial concubine's thigh to achieve today, imitating the imperial concubine and wanting to support your confidantes, but in the end you didn't support them, what's the matter with the imperial concubine?

But Yun Fenghuang was more or less in favor of Concubine De, and casually comforted him, then turned around and asked Gu Zhen: "Although the empress only gave three places at the beginning, there are not a few vacancies for concubines in the palace now..."

"How is this possible?" Gu Zhen was a little unhappy, she glanced at Concubine De warningly, and said, "This is all agreed, changing the order every day, how decent it is!"

Concubine De is not afraid of her, especially Concubine Gui is right in front of her, pretending she didn't see her, she hugged Yun Fenghuang's arm happily, and said softly, "I know it's my sister who loves my sister!"

Gu Zhen had a headache for a while, and sure enough, Yun Fenghuang smiled slightly when he got this sentence, and when he spoke again, it was not in that kind of discussing tone, but faintly oppressed: "Then get rid of the Huang family, and the left and right Mrs. Huang is vicious at such a young age, she dares to attack her companions even at such a time as the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, she is really bold and vicious! Such a person is a concubine, how is it a blessing in the palace?"

"It's all rumors." The queen pinched her forehead in annoyance and said, "You are also a noble concubine after all, how come you are like that womb maid who listens to wind and rain?"

Yun Fenghuang said: "My lady, why do you need to cover up for that Huang family? During the banquet, we could all see clearly that the Gao family didn't have an accident sooner or later, and he happened to have an accident before he appeared on the stage. Could it be a coincidence?" Is it like this? Who will believe it? Besides, the concubine has heard about the situation in Xiuzhuo Palace these days. The Huang family and the Gao family are all born with similar talents. Obviously, the Huang family is worried about being overwhelmed by the Gao family. That's why Gao was designed. These two were chosen by the empress, and they are all her own people, the empress can't treat one more favorably than the other! Otherwise, wouldn't it be too chilling for Gao?"

The corner of the queen's mouth twitched, she mistakenly thought that Mrs. Huang had cheated Mrs. Gao at the banquet yesterday.

It was only later that I found out that the co-author was Gao's self-awareness that his skills were not as good as others', and Huang's daring to act recklessly!

Originally, although these two picking girls were arranged by the Gu family, they had never been together, and they were not blood relatives. It is conceivable that the queen tolerated them.

It can be said that he has completely fallen for the Huang family, and even plans to give up the Gao family who has done more than fail at any time and anywhere.

But Yun Fenghuang keeps saying that both of them belong to her...

She can't directly admit that Gao has a problem, can she? If you think about it that way, you know that Yun Fenghuang must hit the snake with the stick, and attribute the responsibility to the blindness of the middle palace. If you choose a female picker, you can choose this kind of strange flower. Don't be a concubine.

"..." The queen sighed after thinking about it, and cast a disgusted glance at Concubine De, and decided to compromise with the concubine, otherwise the concubine would personally attack Huang, she might not be able to protect her.

Therefore, he said, "Forget it, since you insist on caring for Concubine De, so what if I take a look at your face? It's just that Concubine De has no talent or virtue, and it all depends on you to rise to the top, rank fourth concubine, hold power in the palace, and even gave birth A pair of sons and daughters, but this is not enough. This newcomer, Concubine Shu didn’t say anything or do anything, but she was in high spirits! Now you and I each choose one person to be a concubine, even the one who started it, Mrs. Jiang, is fine, but she is still pushing You help her pull this sidelines, it shows that people are not strong enough! I don't know if you will even covet your position as a noble concubine in the future?"

Concubine De, who had never paid attention to the queen, suddenly changed her face. She didn't care about rebuttals, she quickly got up from her seat, and fell to the ground: "Sister, my sister never dared to think like this! My sister just..."

"Okay." Yun Fenghuang glanced at her indifferently, and said lightly, "The empress's kindness is appreciated by the concubine. However, the concubine entered the palace at the same time as the concubine's sister, and they have made friends since then. What is the nature of the concubine's sister?" - Son, this concubine is very clear in body and mind, but I don’t need the empress to worry about it.”

Gu Zhen said with a cold face, "That's good."

She didn't want to talk too much, and didn't let Concubine De get up, so she said, "In the Chunjia Dynasty, there was never an example of a son from a poor family and a good family being granted the concubine directly. Even if this promotion is an exception, it should not be too high. After all, the new couples are young, and they will have to be conferred upon them to have children in the future. According to this palace, they should all be conferred on Jieyu."

Yun Fenghuang and Concubine De nodded slightly at this.

After all, even they can't talk about pure trust in newcomers.

Mentoring belongs to supporting, after all, I don't want them to be promoted too quickly, so as not to rely on their youthful beauty and endanger their status and authority.

The empress was unhappy in her heart, and said: "It's just that Xie, Huang, and Jiang are the concubines of the eight scriptures after all, and there should be a difference from the concubine recommended by the concubine De. I would like to ask your majesty to give these three Down the title."

Yun Fenghuang said: "Your Majesty is busy with government affairs, but why bother to make a fuss about such things? If the empress chooses one or two titles for them, that's all."

"..." Gu Zhen glanced at her, knowing that the imperial concubine was jealous, and didn't want Chunjia to personally draw up titles for the newcomers.

At the beginning, Yun Fenghuang was Jin Concubine, and Concubine An had not yet fallen out of favor at that time. The Empress Yuan thought that Chunjia would not care about such trivial matters, and planned to do it herself, but in the end, Chunjia accidentally chose a title and sent it to Yanfu palace……

Now the imperial concubine doesn't want the newcomer to have similar treatment.

This is of course human nature, but Gu Zhen had been threatened by her before, so he was not willing to compromise, so he just said lightly, "There has been no serious newcomers in the palace for two years, and it is because His Majesty is busy with government affairs that we occasionally Let Your Majesty relax."

After a pause, he continued, "Although His Majesty is not greedy for beauty, among the newcomers this time, there is someone who Yan Yin has personally visited. Presumably His Majesty is also eager to know the situation at this moment."

This is of course Jiang Mingdan.

Thinking of his speculation about Chunjia and Jiang Mingdan, Yun Fenghuang's expression fluctuated for a moment, before he said, "But it's up to the empress to decide."

So it broke up so unhappy.

After leaving Yanfu Palace, Concubine De didn't bother to go back to her residence, and immediately went to the Huanhua Palace, knelt down and cried again, explaining to Yun Fenghuang with tears in her eyes, saying that she had absolutely no intention of making progress. It is expected that the queen will really give a concubine to Jiang Mingdan: "Don't hide it from my sister, my sister is thinking, that Jiang's person who is called the queen is so shameless that the majestic middle palace threatens him, but any individual, How can I bear it? Even if the empress does not kill her in the follow-up, how can she have the opportunity to be a concubine! Such three concubines, the empress, elder sister, and younger sister are one for each, isn't it just right? So my younger sister told my grandmother about this in advance. I was really confused just now, and worried that I would not be able to explain it to my grandmother..."

Yun Fenghuang actually listened to the Queen's words to some extent.

After all, over the years, Concubine De has helped her a lot, but if it is said that this help is so great that it is worth giving her the position of fourth concubine and the right to assist her in the sixth palace, that is really not the case.

At least in Yun Fenghuang's eyes, Wei Hengyan is not worth the price.

But the reason why she pushed the other party to the current position was not all because of winning over Wei Hengyan and the Wei family, but also because Yun Fenghuang didn't want this position, and the power of assistant manager of the Six Palaces, to fall on other people who didn't agree with her. In the wrong hands.

To put it bluntly, Wei Hengyan was promoted by Yun Fenghuang to occupy the seat.

Therefore, Yun Fenghuang also felt that Concubine De's move to claim the position of concubine for the daughter-in-law this time was a bit too much.

Don't you know if you are qualified enough to arrange the palace like the Queen and Bengong? !

If the queen hadn't pointed it out in person just now, Yun Fenghuang would give Wei Hengyan a beating in two days to wake her up. Don't think that you have pampered and protected her for the past two years, and you have forgotten the rules!

But the queen said, seeing Wei Hengyan's frightened look, she turned around to be a good person, and kindly helped Concubine De to get up, and said: "What is this for? The queen said that, but deliberately sow dissension .Still sowing discord in front of both of us. Do you think I just paid attention to her? I didn't listen to her, but you put it on your mind? Could it be that from now on, you will be with her? Is my palace divided?"

"Sister dare not..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Yun Fenghuang, and said softly: "Everyone in the palace knows that we entered the palace together and got to know each other early. Over the years, no matter what, we have been advancing and retreating together. No jealousy? Isn’t this just changing the way and trying to make trouble for us? If you really follow their words, then you will get their wish. You are also an old man who has been in the palace for many years. Why are you still so naive and ignorant? I don’t even know if I’m cheated!”

Wei Hengyan knew that she was thinking deeply, and she might not believe her sweet words.

But after all, the imperial concubine hasn't dealt with her much in the past two years. She thought that maybe she had been with her for many years, and the imperial concubine had some sincerity towards herself. He left under the hint of leaving.

Then Yun Fenghuang turned around and asked Chen Jing to investigate: "What is the background and temperament of the daughter-in-law who De Concubine wants to recommend to Feng Concubine, and what has changed between De Concubine and the Wei family recently? This Wei Shi, there are many things that I have done for this palace. If it is a betrayal, it is not a joke. If we find out the clues this time, we have to think about acting first. If we don’t find out, we should also prepare some handle, so as not to be in a hurry in the future!"

After arranging this matter, she slowly exhaled, and asked again, "By the way, has there been any movement in Qingci Palace these two days?"

"...Returning to your mother, the slaves are incompetent, and the Qingci Palace has been quiet so far, and there is no news." Chen Jing bowed awkwardly, "But... Fuyang County, there is some news?"

Yun Fenghuang raised his eyebrows: "About the two empress dowagers?"

Chen Jing said: "Exactly! A few days ago, the loving mother empress dowager had already set off for the palace. It is said that before the loving mother empress dowager left, the phoenix body was a little out of order. That's why Prince Yun was worried, and wanted to persuade the loving mother empress dowager to rest for a while. However, the loving mother, the Empress Dowager, couldn't wait any longer and insisted on boarding the car that day!"

This is a reasonable thing, after all, the result of the lottery surprised everyone in the government and the public. For the loving mother, the empress dowager, is it not a bolt from the blue?

She was able to endure only a slight ailment instead of a setback, and she was considered determined.

Yun Fenghuang smiled and asked: "What about the Holy Mother and Empress Dowager? Is there any reluctance?"

She thought that Queen Mother Qu would not know how to act.

But the Empress Dowager Qu really didn't perform this time, Chen Jing lowered her voice: "The Holy Mother Empress Dowager didn't show up, she said she was tired, and she spent many years with the loving mother Empress Dowager, once she was separated, she was reluctant to part, and she was afraid that she would come forward to see her off in person. Touching each other's sorrows, adding fuel to the empress dowager's fire. Therefore, I only asked the servants to come to the scene and said a few words on the scene. Before the empress dowager boarded the chariot, I said that I was afraid that the empress dowager had orders from the empress dowager, so I turned around and left ...Right now, everyone in Fuyang County is talking about it, wondering if His Majesty feels sorry for the grievances of the Holy Mother and Empress Dowager these years?"
