Chapter 453: Rash
Not to mention the turbulent undercurrents along the way, Shengjia returned to Miyagi in the presence of the Empress Dowager, and everyone had no time to catch their breath and was about to prepare for the upcoming celebration banquet.
From the day the emperor returned to the palace, he was so busy that he hardly touched the ground.
The harem also doesn't care about competing for favor at the moment, and they all come and go in a hurry.
The main reason was that the empress complained of illness on the way, so the celebration banquet would definitely not be able to be hosted, and the imperial concubine, concubine Shu, and concubine De had to take the lead.
What's terrible is that the celebration banquet that Guochao can copy now was the last time it happened during Xiaozong's reign, and it was said that it was not doing well at that time...
Because at that time, the conflict between Xiaozong and the Ji family was obvious. After the Border Pass reluctantly repelled Wei He, the uncle and nephew were completely torn apart without the pressure of foreign aggression.
At the celebration banquet at that time, the young Xiaozong couldn't even suppress his anger, and threw away the lamp in public, leaving aside the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty and the Ji family, and even the empress dowager and the common man Ji Sheng. Imagine the atmosphere and embarrassment at that moment.
Yun Fenghuang felt that this banquet was unlucky, so he didn't want to copy it: "Let the Ministry of Rites find other examples, such as the time when the country was founded. After all, this great victory is different from that of the first emperor. During the time of the first emperor, it was Wei He who invaded the state, and the state was just defending itself. This time, it was a crusade against Wei He, and the soldiers pointed directly at the state, and even helped him establish a new Khan and a new Yan clan. Compare?"
Concubine Shu and Concubine De are all in favor... They actually like to work with concubines.
The main reason is that the imperial concubine is different from the empress, she has the favor of the emperor, and she has her own means. When Yun Fenghuang doesn't want to mess with others, she is always quick and protective, and will not easily get angry.
As for Gu Zhen, one is not capable enough, and the other is that without favor, it is inevitable to have a lot of worries, so he is very entangled in thinking.
Sometimes it is even necessary to dump the underdog...
Now that Yun Fenghuang is taking the lead, Concubine Shu and Concubine De are going to fight wholeheartedly.
The high-ranking people are worried about the banquet, while the ordinary concubines are painstaking in dressing up for the banquet.
In the end, when he turned around, there was another disturbance: Tian Jieyu had a rash on her face without warning!
After investigation, it was because her new rouge was mixed with something.
Then, this box of rouge was given to her by Jing Jieyu...
"I didn't make this!" Jing Jieyu was shocked when she heard the news, and hurried over to explain to Xie Runan, "You know this box of rouge, I also use it myself, and I gave you a box to try it out because I thought it was good... ...If you feel bad, how can I give it to you?"
Xie Runan was very depressed at the moment. After all, although she was not very beautiful, she was still beautiful, but now her fair skin was densely packed with small red bumps, which looked terrible. Let alone attending the celebration banquet Well, it's even a question of whether she can continue to be favored in the future!
But she is a sensible person, and she nodded slightly when she heard the words: "Don't worry, it's fine if it's someone else. If it's you, why don't I know? How could you harm me?"
Jing Jieyu breathed a sigh of relief, although she also knew that Xie Runan was not that kind of foolish person, but hearing this with her own ears, she felt a little more at ease, and hurriedly asked: "Have you reported this to the imperial concubine or empress? Has the imperial physician seen it?" ?”
"I just sent someone to report." Xie Runan was a little uneasy. As Yun Fenghuang's niece from the same clan, and she has a good personality, she usually gives some benefits to those who serve the imperial concubine in Xuanqing Palace, so she occasionally I can get some inside information, for example, although the imperial concubine is willing to support her, she is not very satisfied with her. She thinks that Xie's generation has no outstanding talents, so Xie Runan is the leader.
Originally, because Xie Runan had no brothers, he was raised by his parents as a son since he was a child, so he was quite arrogant.
But after entering the palace, regardless of appearance, background or means, they were hanged and beaten, and even frequently hanged and beaten, this little arrogance was almost eliminated.
At this moment, I am very worried that the imperial concubine will feel more and more unable to support the wall after knowing this, and said in a low voice, "It's just that the empress is sick, and the imperial concubine has been worrying about the celebration banquet these days, and I don't know if I have the time to personally ask ?”
"You are the blood relative of the imperial concubine, how can the imperial concubine care?" Jing Jieyu was very confident.
Jiang Mingdan doesn't know the complexity of the inside story, she really thinks that she is today thanks to the support of the imperial concubine.
In her opinion, the imperial concubine is willing to lend a helping hand even to a newcomer like herself, let alone a niece like Xie Runan?
Xie Runan looked at her determined look, smiled wryly to himself, and became more depressed, because he felt that if it wasn't for Concubine Min, a smart person like Jing Jieyu would never have any relationship with him, let alone treat her everywhere.
For a while, Xie Runan was in a complicated mood.
Fortunately, although Yun Fenghuang was busy these two days, when he heard that Tian Jieyu was being plotted against, he didn't ignore it, but immediately sent Qing people to the scene to sit in charge.
"You two Jieyu ladies, don't worry." The Qing people brought the imperial physician who specially diagnosed Yun Fenghuang to the scene. After the imperial physician checked, everyone was relieved, "Such a rash looks terrible. In fact, it will be gone in two days. At most, there will be no time to catch up with the celebration banquet, and there will be no traces left behind."
The Qing people hurriedly comforted: "Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't go to the celebration banquet. On that day, the protagonists must be the soldiers! Your Majesty will greet the righteous masters in the front, and the ladies will also greet their families in the back... We went just to eat. It takes a long time for wine and the like, so you don’t have to be too tired.”
That is to say, Tian Jieyu is young, it is a good time, and the days of entering the palace are short, so why not regret missing the celebration banquet?
It's just that compared to the disfigurement from now on, this result is already very good. At this moment, he forced a smile and said: "It's all because of my incompetence. I have been plotted by others and I don't know what's going on. Even Mingdan and Niangniang are worried about me."
"What did Jieyu say? You are my niece's niece and close relative. You have suffered such a crime for no reason. Why doesn't your aunt feel sorry for you?" Of course, the Qing people knew that Yun Fenghuang was not satisfied with Xie Runan, and he didn't even have much hope. But in front of Xie Runan, he still spoke nicely, "It's also the empress who is ill at the moment, our empress is really busy, otherwise, after hearing the news, the empress must come to see it in person .”
After talking about the scene in this way, the two Jieyu were appeased, and then they got to the point, and wanted to thoroughly investigate the ins and outs.
The ins and outs of this, of course, are first checked from the people around the two Jieyu.
The main reason is that both Yun Fenghuang and the Qing people felt that the possibility of Jing Jieyu attacking Xie Runan was not very high.
This is not only because they have always had a good relationship, but also because Jiang Mingdan is a smart person, even if she has other plans, what good would it do if she harmed Xie Runan now?
It was just a celebration banquet, as the Qing people said, they were not the protagonists, they were nothing more than being wallflowers.
Does it make sense for Jiang Mingdan not to ask Xie Runan to attend?
Therefore, the problem is most likely to be with the two servants.
After such an investigation, it was found that the culprit was Lu Jieyu.
Lu Jieyu originally heard that something went wrong with Tian Jieyu and she was still quietly gloating. Although she was brought up by Concubine De, she should be close to Xie Runan, but because Jing Jieyu took the lead, she was finally won over by Li Jieyu. He fought with Tian Jieyu and Jing Jieyu a lot, and got a little bit angry, so naturally he didn't have a good impression of Xie Runan at the moment.
Who knew, I was enjoying watching the movie leisurely, but this fire suddenly burned my head!
Lu Jieyu was in a bad mood, and hurriedly ran to Yijia Palace to ask for help: "The concubine Defei is so beautiful, this concubine really didn't do this... I didn't even know about it until the incident happened. You also know that the concubine and Tian Jieyu have never been close, there are some servants in her palace, and the concubine is completely confused, how can she play tricks on the rouge she uses?"
Concubine De didn't take it seriously at first, but when she heard that Lu Jieyu was involved, her complexion became ugly. First, she scolded Lu Jieyu, blaming her for being so dull. She knew she was close to the noble concubine, so she didn't follow suit. By myself, before Jing Jieyu, be good friends with Tian Jieyu? It's all over now, what was thought to be a small dispute between Jieyu and Tian Jieyu suddenly turned into an accident! Who in this palace doesn't know that the noble concubine is the most protective, but in the past, the noble concubine was the beneficiary of the habit of the noble concubine, but now it is the niece of the noble concubine's clan who has the accident!
And the imperial concubine is famous for protecting blood relatives!
Especially after the Xie clan was destroyed, these distant relatives were also the darlings of the imperial concubine, how could this matter be trivialized?
After Concubine De scolded Lu Jieyu, she had no time to change her clothes, so she hurried to Xuanqing Palace to plead guilty.
"What are you panicking about? It's just rashes, and it will disappear in two days." Yun Fenghuang didn't really care much, she did care a lot more about Xie's bloodline now than usual, but if you want to say that everyone is like a pearl. Bao is not there yet.
Xie Runan will keep it as long as she can, if something goes wrong, she has revenge and revenge, revenge, revenge, heart-piercing or something...
That's really not the case.
So at the moment the mood was very calm, and he said slowly, "How many years have we had a friendship? It's not that real sisters are better than real sisters. After all, how many real sisters can live next to each other like us and get along day and night all year round? Not to mention Tian Jieyu didn't Seriously, even if something goes wrong, can I still blame you?"
Even though she knew that the noble concubine would always speak sweet words, the concubine De almost shed tears when she heard it.
After all, a person who has always valued blood relatives suddenly said that you are more precious than her blood relatives, even if they are distant blood relatives, it can't help being moved.
Concubine De was agitated, and became even more angry: "Who the hell is so vicious to murder Tian Jieyu like this?!"
After saying this, he hurriedly said, "Sister, it's not that my sister deliberately excused Na Lu, but based on my sister's understanding of Lu, even if she has such a heart, she will not be so courageous! If she has the courage, she will not have the ability! "
