Under the Empress Dowager, all members will be King

Chapter 88

"After entering the palace, you will no longer be a child, and many things cannot be done by your temper."

"All the courtiers and concubines remember what the emperor said."

Xi Jiaorong's smile was like the warm sun in early spring, Zhu Beifeng couldn't help being infected by her smile, and laughed along with her.

"The concubine can draw a fan, the emperor will come and see."

Xi Jiaorong naturally pulled him to the desk, there were two big green cows painted on the plain white fan, beside the green cows was a grass field, two children were running on the ground, and under the blue sky floated a Only paper kites.

"Please guess the emperor, which poem did this fan painted by my concubine come from?"

"The grass grows and the warbler flies in the February sky, and the willows blowing the embankment are drunk with spring smoke. The children come back early from school, and they are busy taking advantage of the east wind to release paper kites."

"The emperor's knowledge is strong, and the concubine admires it."

Xi Jiaorong draws flowers, sketches different scenes with a few strokes, she blends the scenery into poems, Zhu Beifeng guesses the poems according to the intention on the fan, encounters unfamiliar poems, and Xi Jiaorong gently reminds them, all of a sudden Qing Palace is full of people. Happy laughter.

Shuangxi knocked on the door and reminded: "Your Majesty, it's time for you to rest."

Xi Jiaorong put down her pen, washed up and slowly climbed onto the bed.

The two talked for a while with lowered voices, Zhu Beifeng promised to have lunch with her at noon tomorrow.

Xijiao was full of smiles, and after serving the emperor the next day, she took the painted fan back to paste the fan.

The concubines who came to the Compassionate Ning Palace to pay their respects had already arrived, but Xi Jiaorong's seat was vacant.She was not present, and everyone took her as a topic.

It was Sun Shurong who spoke first, "Concubine Xi is valued by the emperor now, so naturally she is rushing to curry favor with the emperor, how can she come to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to pay her respects to the empress dowager, if she is filial, it depends on us."

Concubine Chen said: "Say a few words less."

"The concubine is right. The rules of morning and night are set by the ancestors. Concubine Xi acts recklessly and doesn't take the queen mother seriously. Isn't she taking the lead in destroying the ethos of the harem?"

Concubine Zhen supported Xiao Yu's hand, and slowly walked out from the side hall.

"Sun Shurong, you have a good eloquence."

"Concubine Zhen, my concubine... my concubine."

If Sun Shurong is courageous, if she wants wisdom, she has nothing but a sharp mouth. Concubine Zhen is a high-ranking concubine. When she met Concubine Zhen, her eyes immediately became docile, and her arrogance disappeared without a trace. .

"You are in the harem together, and you should live in harmony."

"The concubine would like to follow the teachings of the concubine and empress dowager."

"Sun Shurong, I heard that you like camellias, and there are two camellias in the palace's side hall. Later, you stay and accompany me to enjoy the flowers."

Sun Shurong suddenly felt bad, but still answered bravely: "Yes, Empress Dowager."

Gu Yingxia hugged two big white radishes, and walked out from behind the screen happily, "Morning, everyone."

"Morning Concubine Xian." All the concubines said in unison.

After waiting for a while, Chu Chu opened the curtain, and Gu Yinwei came out to meet everyone.

Jiang Yuan quietly raised her head to look at the Empress Dowager Heng Le, her skin was like a freshly peeled egg, delicate and white, tall and tall, her eyebrows were unpainted but green, her lips were unpainted but red, and her gestures could not conceal her nobility.

The two concubines looked very kind and spoke softly. Unless they made mistakes like Sun Shurong, they would not easily punish the concubines.

"Who said just now that Concubine Xi doesn't see Aijia in her eyes?"

Gu Yinwei's voice was not loud, but it was very deterrent.

Concubine Chen lowered her head involuntarily, people with a guilty conscience always make more petty moves than others.

"Concubine Xi came to Ai's house early in the morning to serve you, Concubine Xi, come out."

Wan Tao supported Xi Jiaorong's hand, Xi Jiaorong looked dull and looked very tired.

Qi Yuer was born with a pair of fox eyes. Her eyes can see many things that ordinary people cannot see. Although Xi Jiaorong's face, figure and attire have not changed at all, but she instinctively feels that Xi Jiaorong from Compassion Ning Palace is a Counterfeit.

Gu Yin felt a slight strangeness, and took a deep look at Qi Yuer, who raised her face and smiled at Gu Yin.

Gu Yinwei sighed in his heart: "It's really rare, Qi Yu'er actually has a pair of intelligent eyes."

Ordinary people don't have spiritual roots, so they need to practice over time to gain the ability to see the subtleties, but Qi Yu'er was born with this ability, which shows that she is a child favored by heaven.

Mei Qingqing sat upright, as if waiting for Gu Yinwei's next words.

"The harem lasts a long time, and everyone takes care of each other." After Gu Yinwei finished speaking, Gu Yingxia took over the conversation and added a few words: "I don't want to see you fighting each other, and I don't want you to kill each other."

Gu Yingxia said a lot of scenes, thinking that she could shock her subordinates, but Sun Shurong and Concubine Chen were obviously not convinced. These words had no effect on their behavior, but Gu Yingxia had to say them.

Chu Chu and Bian Taolin led the maids to serve tea to the concubines, Xijiao sat with a blank expression.

After a cup of tea, the concubines got up to say goodbye, Xi Jiaorong sat still.

Sun Shurong said: "Concubine Xi, let's go together."

Concubine Zhen said: "Sun Shurong, don't leave in a hurry, I have something to look for you."

Seeing this, Concubine Chen immediately quickened her pace and hurried out of the gate of Compassionate Ning Palace.

I was afraid that Concubine Zhen would keep her and whisper in her ear.

When Mei Qingqing crossed the threshold, Concubine Chen pushed her furiously, Mei Qingqing kicked her acupuncture point, Concubine Chen's whole body went limp, and she immediately fell to the ground.

"Concubine Mei, do you dare to kick me?"

"Joke, you stumbled, I helped you, but you framed me instead."

"you……"

"Concubine Chen, look at your feet more while walking, don't always look around, I have Bengong kindly supporting you today, but you will not be so lucky tomorrow."

"Let go, Ben Gong will go by himself."

Qi Yu'er looked up at the sky, really wanted to go back to the palace for dinner, she was so hungry, why didn't the people in front leave yet.

Qi Yu'er turned her head and glanced at the main hall of the Compassionate Ning Palace. The hibiscus cake given by the Queen Mother just now was really delicious, and she wanted to eat another piece.

Concubine Chen glared at Concubine Mei and left quickly.

After leaving the Compassion Ning Palace, everyone dispersed separately.

Qi Yu'er was going to the Inner Court Department to find a new dining table, but on the way, she saw Xi Jiaorong walking towards the imperial study with a food box.

She felt a little strange, "Xi Jiaorong was still in the Compassionate Ning Palace just now, why did she appear here again now?"

"Concubine Xi, where are you going?"

"I'm going to deliver a fan to the emperor."

"You're so fast."

"You don't have to hurry when you're working for the emperor, I ran all the way from the palace."

Qi Yu'er's heart skipped a beat, Xi Jiaorong said that she ran all the way from the bedroom, so it can be seen that the dull concubine Xi from the Palace of Compassionate Ning just now must not be her.

I don't know what secret method the Empress Dowager Heng Le has to find a counterfeit in a short period of time to rescue Xi Jiaorong.

"Sister Qi Concubine, I won't talk to you now, see you later."

"Alright, see you, Concubine Xi."

Xijiao walked like flying, holding a newly made fan in her hand, like a dancing butterfly, flying towards the direction of the imperial study.

Before entering the palace, Qi Yu'er had heard from her mother that Xi Jiaorong and the emperor were childhood sweethearts since they were young, and because of their childhood affection, the emperor naturally preferred her more.
