The Job of an Imperial Concubine

Chapter 35



Zhuang Luoyan watched Su's sisters coming together. She didn't know such a woman as Shu Guifei, so she didn't want to be an enemy at this moment.

If you lose in the shopping mall, you may lose only money and position. If you lose in the harem, you may lose life in addition to status. He took the cup and sipped it gently to hide his carelessness. The tea was good, but it was a little dull.

After su Xiuyi and Princess Shu sent greetings to the empress, she sat down. The empress looked at the crowd and said, "it rained for most of the night yesterday. Today, kang'an palace passed the Empress Dowager's edict, saying that it is unnecessary to send greetings to the Empress Dowager today." At this point, the queen sipped a sip of tea and then continued, "the palace thinks that there are many old people in the palace now. You all go to ask the palace maids who are over 25 years old. If you want to release the palace, go to the palace to save money and give it home."

Zhuang Luoyan was a little stunned. The old man was released from the harem, which means that new palace maids will be selected next spring. If one or two of these palace maids get the emperor's green eye She finally understood why the emperor had so many women. When she saw young girls every year, she would not have a big appetite.

"The empress is merciful," the lady rose to salute, and said with a smile, "when my concubines return to the palace, I must ask them."

The queen nodded and saw that the other concubines also got up to praise their kindness. She said with a smile, "where is the kindness in the palace? It's just according to the ancestral rules."

Zhuang Luoyan sighed at the bottom of her heart. The queen is not only good-looking, but also thankless. She feels tired when she looks at it, not to mention how complicated it is for the queen to do these things.

But as the saying goes, how can you know the pleasure of fish without fish? She thinks that the queen is tired. Maybe the queen also thinks that this is a very noble position. She is willing to be tired and willing to be complicated.

"By the way, Zhao Chongyi, I heard that the emperor has granted you permission to have a small kitchen in the palace. There are people who are good at cooking around you. If there are no people who can use it, go to the palace province and ask them to arrange some useful maids for you." As if suddenly remembering this, the queen said, "you've suffered a lot these days, and you should take good care of yourself. I'll see that you've been reduced in recent days."

"Thank you, empress. I have people who are good at cooking around me, so I don't have to go to Dianzhong province any more," said Zhuang Luoyan with a smile on his face. He was still frightened in his eyes. "There's no way to reduce it, but I haven't slept very well these two days. I think I've lost my spirit."

The queen nodded and gave her a tolerant look. "Sit down quickly. You don't have to be so polite. You don't have to think too much. If you have a God in your head, you will be protected by the gods."

Zhuang Luoyan sat down with a sneer in his heart. The empress said that she was obviously comforted and praised that she was blessed by heaven. But when he thought about it, he was reminding others not to do bad things. He was also reminding others that he was conspicuous in the harem recently.

The queen is worthy of being the queen. She doesn't dislike and like Yiying's concubines. She only has the word "balance". She has a small kitchen this time. No matter what the reason is, it's really striking. The Queen's reaction is peaceful. It can be seen that this is not a big deal in the Queen's mind.

The empress's words made her smile a little ironically. The story of Zhao Chongyi's being blessed by heaven has spread all over the back palace. It's strange that the empress is not alone. However, Zhao Chongyi did have some good luck. No wonder the empress was sour.

Whether there was any other meaning in the Queen's words, the other concubines, whether they heard it or not, only agreed to let Zhuang Luoyan have a good rest and so on. The empress did not dare to offend her, but Zhao Chongyi, who got the favor of the emperor, was not the object of their free ridicule.

Zhuang Luoyan didn't like to fight. After the queen said this, she didn't have the heart to refute. She just couldn't hear what she said. She said a few words along the surface of the Queen's words, and then she stopped talking and made a dull appearance.

Zhuang Jieyu glanced at Zhuang Luoyan's appearance, looked away without expression, swept around the faces of all the people in the room, and then honestly lowered her head and touched the cup that was already cold in her hand.

Ma Jieyu has been honest since she was slapped by Yan guipin. The emperor saw that day when she was slapped, but even so, Yan guipin was not punished. She knew that she was not Ma Jieyu who was favored two years ago.

Even if she is silly, she knows what it means to break up before she gets old. She is not the only one or the last one in the harem. Looking up at all of you, how many of you can keep your favor?

"Kneel down. I'm tired."

Ma Jieyu got up and stood with the concubines. Then she followed them out of Jingyang palace. Her status was different, and the order of going to the chariot was different. She watched a group of high-ranking concubines, such as Princess Shu, Princess Ning, and Princess Xian, leave with the guard of honor, and then looked at the rest of the low browed concubines, with a sneering smile on her lips. In those years, she had not imagined that she had that dream One day, in the eyes of all the concubines, he left with a guard of honor?

Now that she woke up, she realized how stupid she was. If she had not been so rampant, she would not have come to this step."Master, be careful."

Ma Jieyu looks up again with a delicate and gentle reminder. At this moment, Zhao Chongyi, who is in the emperor's favor, is also the object she once ridiculed.

Zhao Chongyi is wearing an inconspicuous water blue waist Ru skirt, and even her hair is in a regular way. The jade hairpin in her hair is neither conspicuous nor shabby. At a glance, people can't find out a few mistakes.

Some people are rampant for a while, but they know how to turn back in time. Some people are rampant for a long time, so they have no chance to turn back. Ma Jieyu calmly watched Zhao Chongyi leave in the chariot, and looked at the envious eyes of other concubines. She could not help sneering. There were more concubines in the harem than those in the harem. What's more, Zhuang Luoyan had a good family background, which could not be compared with other concubines.

Looking at the expression of anger on Zhuang Jieyu's face, Ma Jieyu's ironic smile is more obvious. They really don't look like sisters. The elder sister is resentful and jealous of her sister. There is no elder sister in her eyes. She doesn't even do the superficial human feelings, which makes people laugh.

However, there are so many funny things in the harem that there is no lack of the joke of the banker's sister.

"Master," whispered the maid beside, "please step on the chariot."

Ma Jieyu sat on the chariot. When the chariot rose, she looked at the other concubines standing in order. She slowly looked away, looked up and squinted at the rising sun. When the sun rose, it also set.

The days of living in Xihe palace were very peaceful. Although there were some gifts from the imperial concubine Shu occasionally, Zhuang Luoyan always gladly accepted them. Although shuguifei's move may be to explain the difference between the two people's identities, in Zhuang Luoyan's opinion, this free and harmless thing is not for nothing.

It's a sunny day. Zhuang Luoyan and some eunuchs are walking around. They accidentally walk into a bamboo forest, thinking that this is the boundary of Xu Zhaoyi. Although she wants to cool down here, she honestly wants to quit.

"Zhaochongyi?"

When Zhuang Luoyan didn't have time to quit, he met Xu Zhaoyi, who was wearing a snow colored wide sleeve skirt in a Japanese bun. Seeing this, Zhuang Luoyan saluted honestly.

"Just get up," Xu Zhaoyi sighed softly. "I've always been quiet here, and there's no one to come. It's the fate of these bamboos that you can come." Said, his face showed a trace of melancholy smile, "I have nothing to entertain you, do not drink a cup of tea?"

"It's my pleasure to invite Zhaoyi." Zhuang Luoyan didn't know why, but he felt a little uncomfortable.

"I will not blossom, I will not tease bees and butterflies." After sitting down, Xu Zhaoyi sighed, "all the people in the harem love the colorful flower powder, but they don't know that bamboo has a different flavor."

Zhuang Luoyan smiles dryly. As a layman, she is greedy for the coolness of bamboo and the beauty and fragrance of flowers. However, looking at Xu Zhaoyi's non worldly appearance, she immediately feels that she should not say anything wrong, so as not to let this kind of person become worldly. However, she feels uncomfortable.

"It's bamboo leaf green. It's not a rare tea. It's better than elegant tea." Xu Zhaoyi asked the maid in waiting to serve tea to Zhuang Luoyan, and looked up at the dense bamboo forest. "Does Zhuang Luoyan love this bamboo forest, too?"

After hearing this, Zhuang Luoyan couldn't answer. She ran over and said, "it's fresh and elegant here, so I came to have a look, but I didn't want to disturb Zhaoyi's quietness. It's really the crime of concubines and concubines."

"Since it's bamboo appreciation, how can I disturb it?" Xu Zhaoyi said with an ethereal smile, as if her heart and mind were all immersed in the bamboo forest. "You know bamboo, that's their greatest joy."

Zhuang Luoyan buries her head and drinks a mouthful of bamboo leaf green tea. The tea is really fragrant, but it's definitely not good tea. Thinking that Xu Zhaoyi is a rare talented woman, she smokes her lips. She thought that the master and sister Lin in the red chamber were the same type, but now she thinks that she really insults sister Lin.

Although sister Lin is also worried, her words and deeds are true. Although Xu Zhaoyi's whole body is full of dust, how can she feel like a writer?

But no wonder there was a woman of different colors in the harem, a talented woman with different views and thoughts, which was new. But did the emperor communicate with Xu Zhaoyi like this every time?

When I think about the picture of the emperor and Xu Zhaoyi chanting poems and Fu, she shakes her hand holding the teacup slightly. I have to say that the emperor is a career with a wide range of hobbies.

Speaking of Cao Cao, as soon as Zhuang Luoyan had this idea, he heard the voice of the emperor coming from behind him.

"The two concubines are very interested. They are here to drink tea and enjoy bamboo."

When Zhuang Luoyan got up, he saw the joy hidden in Xu Zhaoyi's eyes and realized that Xu Zhaoyi was afraid that the emperor was coming, so he deliberately made such a statement in front of him, hoping to attract some attention in front of the emperor. It seems that this talented woman, is not really like a talented woman, as secular as nothing.

"I've seen the emperor," Zhuang Luoyan put down his tea cup and saluted with Xu Zhaoyi. Compared with Zhuang Luoyan's formal salute, Xu Zhaoyi's hands and feet were a little more dusty. The snow colored sleeves in the air made a beautiful arc, which made Zhuang Luoyan's eyes dazzled."Two love imperial concubines don't have to be polite," Feng Jin went to them with a smile. "Since there's good tea, I'll taste it."

"Back to the emperor, it's made from the tip of tender bamboo. I'll make one for you to have a taste and see if it suits your taste," said Xu Zhaoyi, with a faint smile on her face. She made a cup of tea for her with her own hands, curling green smoke floating on the tea surface, which was very beautiful.

Zhuang Luoyan looks at this scene with a teacup in his hand. No wonder Xu Zhaoyi is called a talented woman. Whether she is talented or not, it's just her temperament. It's really a kind of talented woman's temperament. It's rare in this harem.

"Lips and teeth, good tea," Feng Jin drank a mouthful, then put down the tea cup, turned to see Zhuang Luoyan sitting aside with a smile, then said: "the two concubines are really more comfortable than I can taste this tea."

Zhuang Luoyan put down his tea cup and said with a smile: "the emperor is laughing at my concubine. You say that Xu Zhaoyi can taste tea, but there is no one to refute. It is a big joke to say that my concubine can taste tea. Today, I ran into Xu Zhaoyi in the forest, and it's already my pleasure to get a cup of tea from sister Zhaoyi. If the emperor praises her like this, I'm afraid I will lose face in the future. "

Feng Jin smiles and moves his eyes to Xu Zhaoyi. "Princess Ai likes this bamboo forest. I've arranged this place for you. Fortunately, it won her a smile."

Xu Zhaoyi's face showed a trace of coyness, which made her fair face more gorgeous.

Looking at this scene, Zhuang Luoyan put down his tea cup, and with a reluctant smile on his face, he stood up and said, "emperor, I think there are still some things in the palace that have not been settled, so I won't drink tea with you."

Feng Jin raised his head and looked at Zhuang Luoyan. It seemed that there was a moment's pause, but it didn't seem to be there. "Since Princess Ai has something to do, let's step back. The sun is strong now. Be careful on the way."

"Thank you for the emperor's love," Zhuang Luoyan did not look at the hand they almost held together, and hurried back.

Gao Dezhong, who is waiting on one side, looks at Zhao Chongyi's back and leaves in a hurry. For a moment, he doesn't know whether to sympathize with Zhao Chongyi or laugh at him for forgetting his identity. There are so many women in the harem. Why can she make the emperor be attracted to her.

However, Xu Zhaoyi was very satisfied with Zhao Chongyi's interest. Seeing her leave in a hurry, she said: "I wanted to have a good chat with sister Zhao for a while, but she didn't have time."

"I don't have to regret it. You'll have a chance in the future, won't you?" Feng Jin lowered his eyelids, took back the hand he was about to shake with Xu Zhaoyi, and took a sip of bamboo leaf green. "I originally wanted to move you to Baojin palace. Since Princess Ai likes this bamboo forest, I won't let Princess Ai do this."

The smile on Xu Zhaoyi's face was slightly stunned, and then recovered as usual, "the emperor sympathizes, it's my pleasure."

Gao Dezhong's sympathy for Zhao Chongyi's idea was transferred to Xu Zhaoyi. Who can tell the gain and loss?

The emperor was going to move Xu Zhaoyi to the palace, but the news that Xu Zhaoyi loved the bamboo forest outside the building and gave up finally spread to all the people in the back palace.

"Hiss, this one loves to work. This time she's lifting a stone and hitting her own feet," said Princess Rou with a sarcastic smile. "What do you like about bamboo forest? I'm afraid she wants to burn that forest now."

She teased the snow colored long haired cat in her arms, and the smile on her face became more and more obvious. She knew that this woman would kill herself sooner or later with affectation?
