Treacherous Living in the Imperial Harem

Chapter 52 Am I Such a Coaxable Person? !

When Yun Fenghuang returned to Huanhua Palace, Chunjia was already here. After she saw the ceremony, Chunjia asked: "How is Qingci Palace today? I heard that something went wrong when we left?"

"I was congratulating my mother, the Empress Dowager. I toasted a few more glasses, but my mother, the Empress Dowager, drank too much out of joy, and she felt unwell halfway through, and had to leave the table. Just like that, the good dinner was spoiled." Yun Fenghuang Pulling the beaded hairpin on the sideburns, he said casually, "Xu Qingci Palace looked angry, and when the concubine Xuan was in front of the maid, she was embarrassed... The concubine agreed to the loving mother, the empress dowager. Get it back in two days."

Chunjia raised her eyebrows and said, "How could Concubine Xuan's maid be ordered?"

Yun Fenghuang snorted: "It's not convenient to ask questions at the gate of Qingci Palace, but I guessed that the little maid probably wanted to stand out in front of the master, so she was pushed out. Otherwise, Concubine Xuan would be the palace lady with me today." There are quite a few people, how come she is the only one who turns back to pick up the things left behind, without a companion?"

He also said, "If Concubine Xuan's previous plan does not change, I am afraid that I will soon congratulate Your Majesty and win another beautiful woman."

"What kind of beautiful woman is not beautiful?" Chunjia scolded with a smile, then reacted, and said, "You mean Concubine Xuan wants that little maid?"

Yun Fenghuang said: "It is said that the general envoy of Yanlan Palace was promoted, and she was very fair and beautiful, but when Concubine Xuan entered the palace, she brought many people to serve her, why did she choose such a strange one by her side? , and brought it to Qingci Palace? Mostly because he wanted to recommend it to His Majesty, so he promoted it in advance."

Chunjia didn't believe it: "You are so jealous that I don't even bother to say anything. Concubine Xuan has only entered the palace for a few days? Is she worth doing this? Besides, as you said, when she entered the palace, she brought many children from her family as dowry. It's not that there are no good people in the inner circle. Even if you want to recommend someone to me, wouldn't it be good to recommend a dowry? Recommending a rough envoy left by the Zheng family, even if he was serving in the side hall before, may not be from the Zheng family. What good is there? ?”

"Your Majesty really cares about Concubine Xuan!" Yun Fenghuang squinted at him when he heard the words, and his expression changed, "Could it be that he has taken a fancy to Concubine Xuan for a long time? But she is a capable general who was married in as a dowry, how could he be willing to do it?" Give it to you? No, in order not to offend you, and to give you an explanation, I can only pull out the maids left behind by the Zheng family as shields, tell me, is this the truth?"

Chunjia couldn't laugh or cry: "Don't interrupt, is that the case? I just said that your previous speculation was wrong."

Yun Fenghuang snorted and said with a smile: "Really? There are not a few Xuanqing Palaces where your majesty has concubines. Tell me, is it better to be born with concubines or concubines?"

Chunjia subconsciously wanted to coax her to say that of course you were born right and left, how could Concubine Xuan be as good as your servant—but before she could say anything, she came to her senses and hurriedly said: "My concubine is beautiful and beautiful, she is in front of you It's gloomy, but I can't remember what's good or not. Concubine Xuan's appearance is not as good as that of Concubine Ai, so against the background, there are some fat, swallows and thin rings on the left and right, each with its own meaning."

"..." Yun Fenghuang didn't find anything wrong, just now he smiled and said, "Your Majesty likes to say such things to coax me."

Chunjia cursed in her heart, you are so happy to hear it, but you have no intention of rejecting it.

Just about to tease the concubine a few words, Yun Fenghuang continued: "Your Majesty, just watch, even if Concubine Xuan is tired of this maid today, she will still recommend someone else to you in two days."

Chunjia smiled and said, "What if there is no one?"

"Impossible." Yun Fenghuang curled his lips and said, "Before the empress dowager and mother empress dowager didn't come back, the empress was sick, and in this palace it was the concubine who was confronting concubine Xuan and Rui concubine. If you have a family background to rely on, you are not in a hurry. After all, you have just entered the palace, so you can consider finding someone to favor you. But now that the two have come back, the loving mother Empress Dowager has turned to support her as a concubine. Their family background is in the century. I don't have any advantage in front of you, can you not be in a hurry?"

"Look at the two banquets held in Qingci Palace, how can Concubine Xuan and Concubine Rui have anything to say? She is no different from an ordinary concubine."

"I want to stand out now, and I don't have a concubine who can share the worries of your majesty. What can I rely on if I don't rely on children?"

Chunjia said: "They have only been in the palace for a few days, and it's not like they can't have children, so why recommend the maids?"

When I said this, I immediately regretted it.

Fortunately, Yun Fenghuang didn't mean to be angry, and said calmly: "They have been serving His Majesty for a few days, and there has been no good news. I can't help but worry that the fate of their children has not come. Besides, how can the daughters of such aristocratic families come to the palace? Pay attention to raising children? Pick the day when it is not easy for you to conceive and arrange some palace ladies who are looking for a suitable child. If you don’t succeed, you don’t lose anything. If you succeed, they will have princes and daughters under their knees. In front of His Majesty, wouldn't it be better if mothers and children are more expensive?"

The most important thing is that Yun Fenghuang's two sons and daughters have already occupied the identity of the eldest son and eldest daughter, especially the eldest son.

Moreover, although the eldest prince was not less tossed in the mother's womb, there has been no bad news since he was born - plus Ji Muzi gave birth to the second prince and the third prince. As far as people are concerned, even if the heirs of the palace people are ranked ahead of their own flesh and blood, the impact will not be great.

After all, since they are all concubines, except for the eldest son who will get some bonuses, the other heirs will not receive any preferential treatment in the front row or back row, it all depends on the ability and status of the mother-in-law.

"Their status was given by their father and brother." Chunjia didn't dare to continue this topic, because she was afraid that it might accidentally involve the fact that Yun Fenghuang could not give birth, so she said vaguely, "What are you using these methods for? I don't care about it." of."

Then he changed the topic, "Can you talk to your brother today?"

Yun Fenghuang said angrily: "Today, the mother, the empress dowager, and the empress dowager are looking at the three prospective sons-in-law, how can I give my concubine the time to talk to my brothers?"

He sighed again, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen my brothers in the family for a long time, so it's okay for brother twenty-one, twenty-two twenty-three, they all grew up with me, in terms of closeness, I'm better than a compatriot with a mother." The thirteenth brother and the others are even worse, and I don't know how they are doing recently?"

Seeing that she really didn't seem to be thinking about childbirth, Chunjia secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "What's the problem? After two days, you can let them come into the palace to talk and have a meal. Your current status is only Under the queen, such a little convenience should be available."

"But the queen..." Yun Fenghuang hesitated, "I am not afraid of her opposition, but I am afraid that she will let the Ji family's princes enter and leave the palace because of this. Wouldn't it be more convenient for the Ji family to conspire? Well, after His Majesty has taken care of the Ji family, I will have a little reunion with my brothers. The left and right concubines and brothers are all young, so it’s not that I can’t afford to wait."

Chunjia smiled and said, "It's not impossible to solve this."

Yun Fenghuang glanced at him, thought for a while, leaned over and kissed him on the cheek, and asked with a smile: "Then your Majesty will tell this concubine?"

"I'm busy right now." Chunjia didn't speak, and waited for a while for her to hold her arm and act coquettishly before she coughed dryly and said, "When I'm free in three to five days, I'll call Xie Wuzheng and the others to the Taichu Palace for an audience. , when the time comes, I will give you a small party in the side hall, but I can't just leave a meal."

"Your Majesty is the best!" Yun Fenghuang didn't feel sorry if he couldn't save food, would the brothers be hungry--a young boy, he would not die of hunger without eating a few meals--Hearing this, he was overjoyed and rushed forward to hug him Hold him, "I like Your Majesty the most!"

Chunjia was very calm: "Well, I know."

I say that every time, am I such a coaxable person? !

The emperor's eyes curved, well, in front of the concubine Xian, I am indeed.

Yun Fenghuang was excitedly preparing to meet the brothers whom he hadn't seen for a long time, and changed the clothes and dresses several times. Chunjia couldn't see her, and said to her: "They are all blood relatives, you dress like this!" Jiner, I was never so enthusiastic when I saw me!"

This concubine had dressed up and waited for him to come again and again, now? The semi-old skirt that was washed last year is tied up, and I heard that Sheng Jia will not bring a replacement when he arrives.

Although because of the good color, it doesn't look unrefined.

But the key is to be slack—of course Chunjia knew that this remark would definitely not be accepted.

Sure enough, Yun Fenghuang said to him when he heard the words: "Isn't the concubine's body just to let the brothers in the family know that His Majesty treats the concubine's body well? Otherwise, the brothers in the family saw that the concubine's dress faded after washing, and the hairpin rings and jewelry are not the best. What should I do if I mistakenly think that this concubine has a false name as a concubine?"

Chunjia said sourly: "I said before that that lacquered pomegranate dress looks good, and you said you would wear it often to show me, but after wearing it twice, you pretended you never said that. This time, to see your brother, You have almost changed eighteen skirts, right? But you still have to continue, so it shows that you are more patient with your brother after all."

"It's not that the empress dowager and the empress dowager are back, and the empress is in charge of the sixth palace again. How can I dare to overstep?" Yun Fenghuang leaned on his shoulders coquettishly, "The pomegranate skirt is so serious, it's not like a concubine is a virtuous woman." The concubine can wear it."

When I was at home, I seldom wore a skirt twice. Now that I have entered the palace and become a concubine, why do you have to wear old clothes one after another because you like it? The key is the old clothes that I am already tired of. !

She plausibly said, "At that time, if the queen catches the wrong place of the concubine, it's fine to make things difficult for the concubine. If it is said that His Majesty favors the concubine too much, she will make a scene in the temple. Isn't this an embarrassment to Your Majesty? Such a concubine Virtuous and virtuous, how could you do such a thing?"

On the other hand, General Chunjia said aggrievedly, "Besides, Your Majesty also said that I am tall and look good in anything I wear! Did it turn out that I was cheating on my body? Doesn't the moon white hidden flower dress that I am wearing now look good? ?”

Chunjia couldn't say no to her: "...No! Concubine Ai looks good in everything she wears! It's just that the lacquer gold and pomegranate skirt is a little bit prettier, and this moon white hidden flower dress is also very pretty!"

Yun Fenghuang looked at him suspiciously: "What His Majesty said is true? Didn't you deliberately coax me?"

"Of course, my beloved concubine looks beautiful, what kind of dress can't look good?" Chunjia took a sip from the tea bowl, and suddenly thought of it, "By the way, the dried bamboo shoots for dinner today are not bad..."

He abruptly changed the subject.

Yun Fenghuang smiled secretly, pretending not to notice, followed him to chat about food.

Chunjia didn't dare to talk about the grand attitude of favoring the concubine, and felt that based on her understanding of the concubine Xian, she had already dressed up so aggressively. Taking time out of his life, he sent people to summon Xie Wuzheng and the others to the Taichu Palace, and also sent people to the Harem Palace to invite Yun Fenghuang.
