The queen bullies me every day

Chapter 74
On the day of Chu Jin's canonization ceremony, the female official announced the imperial decree, handed the concubine's book treasure to Chu Jin, and then told her: "After the ceremony here, the concubine Hua should go to the Fengxian Hall to kowtow to her ancestors. However, because the Fengxian Hall is being repaired, the emperor issued an order to avoid the cumbersome rules. The empress only needs to go to the Xianshou Palace and Fengluan Palace to thank the Empress Dowager and the Empress for their kindness."

This concubine’s court dress looks like she’s wearing armor for fighting the enemy, and the people of Chujin are stunned by the embellishments of jewels and emeralds. From time to time, she murmurs to Linglong next to her: “This concubine’s court dress is too good. It’s gaudy, but luckily it’s only worn during the Emperor’s Longevity Festival and New Year’s Day, if you wear these dozens of kilograms of stuff on your body every day, if you don’t have the size of Concubine Zhang, you will be exhausted sooner or later.”

Linglong listened to Chu Jin's complaints, and responded to her with a smile, as if she was conferred as a concubine and spoke cheerfully and coquettishly.

On the way to Xianshou Palace in a sedan chair, Chu Jin still felt a little uneasy.

Empress Dowager Zhang's attitude was ambiguous, she treated her like a daughter at one moment, and scolded and ridiculed her like an enemy at another, Chu Jin didn't understand what was going on in her mind.

Fortunately, when meeting Queen Mother Zhang, Xuan Jue happened to be paying her respects at Xianshou Palace.

Seeing Chu Jin coming, Empress Dowager Zhang glanced at Xuan Jue with a sneer, and said softly: "Aijia said how the emperor has the leisure and elegance to gossip with Aijia in the Aijia palace for so long, so it turns out that he is here waiting."

Xuan Jue smiled embarrassingly, "The son doesn't want his mother to be displeased. Concubine Hua has not been in the palace for a long time. Some things are out of proportion and often make her angry, but there is a son who is dealing with the empress and concubine Hua. , my son believes that after a long time, the queen mother will be able to see Concubine Hua's beauty just like her son."

What does it mean to lose your sense of proportion and make your mother angry?
Chu Jin thought to herself, if your mother didn't seek me out, would I be able to give her anger?

Not listening to Xuan Jue's words, Chu Jin couldn't bear his temper, and the moment Xuan Jue's eyes met hers, he frowned and glared at him.

After staring at this, Xuan Jue was still smiling vigorously, and instantly turned into a frightened deer, "Actually Concubine Hua is the best woman my son has ever seen."

This sentence was obviously intended for Chu Jin to hear, but before Chu Jin could respond, Queen Mother Zhang said in a sly voice: "The best? How good is it? Is the butt bigger than others, or the face more ecstasy than others? The emperor's harem Now that the atmosphere is smoky, the empress has come to Ai's house to cry several times. One by one, which one is missing this girl's involvement in it?"

After finishing speaking, his eyes were like swords across Chu Jin's calm and composed expression, and he whispered in Xuanjue's ear: "Although the Guo family is the daughter of a concubine from the prefect of Zhaodu, her mother's family is still a family of upright officials. The emperor decreed that Chu Huaishan, a greedy rat, would be poisoned, and his daughter-in-law would become the head of the palace, does the emperor think it is appropriate?"

Empress Dowager Zhang thought her voice was as thin as a mosquito buzzing, but Chu Jin's ears had been sharp since she was a child, and she could even hear the ups and downs of Empress Dowager Zhang's speech clearly.

"My father was executed by the concubine himself, in order to dispel the doubts in the hearts of the emperor and the queen mother. The concubine is a concubine, and my father is the father. My father violated the laws of the country and caused human life. It is unacceptable. The concubine understands Distinguish right from wrong, ask yourself your innocence, and will never do anything as stupid as my father. I also ask the queen mother to give my concubine a chance to serve by your side."

"Are your ears downwind?" Empress Dowager Zhang looked at Chu Jin, and seeing that she spoke calmly and without fear, she couldn't help but cast a sideways glance at her.

In this Emperor Garden City, there are not many people who dare to go straight to him like this.Even if the queen is in front of him every day, she is telling seven parts of the truth and three parts of the lie.

She was still angry that Chu Jin lied to her the first time she saw her, but her son liked it, so what could she do?
Seeing Xuan Jue looking at her expectantly, how could a mother embarrass her daughter-in-law?

She breathed a long sigh of relief, waved her hand at Chu Jin and said, "Forget it. The emperor said hello and pampered you, how can Aijia make things difficult for you? But in the future, you have to behave in a good manner so that you can serve the queen and help her be safe. Liugong, do you understand? Concubine Hua."

With a cry of Concubine Hua, it was regarded as a recognition of Chu Jin's position.

Chu Jin kowtowed to thank her, and the queen mother ordered her to step down.

Xuan Jue followed closely behind and wanted to leave, but was stopped by Empress Dowager Zhang: "Isn't it so obvious that you forget your mother when you have a daughter-in-law?"

Xuan Jue scratched the back of his head and smiled embarrassingly, and quickly moved behind Empress Dowager Zhang to rub her shoulder blades, "Look at what the Empress Mother said, how can I do that."

The words of Queen Mother Zhang were on her lips, but her eyes were already drawn away by Chu Jin's leaving back.

After passing the queen mother's level, the queen's level will be better.

Left and right Chu Jin never put her in his eyes, so when they entered Fengluan Palace, they only kneeled down three times and kowtowed nine times, then sat down and chatted with the queen.

The queen asked: "Now you have become a concubine, and you are the head of the first palace. You are wronged to squeeze in Zhaochun Palace with Concubine Zhang. Why don't you move to Yong'an Palace and live with Guo Guiren?"

Move to live with Guo Guiren, is the queen afraid that Guo Guiren will not harm her?

"The empress's kindness is appreciated by the concubine. It's just that the concubine has no merit for the country and no work for the emperor's heir. She is already flattered to be a concubine. If she makes a big move and moves to live in the palace, it will make people feel that she is a concubine. The concubine is not sensible anymore. The concubine is used to living in Zhaochun Palace, moving to the palace is just a different place to sleep, and the concubine doesn't care about those extraneous things. It's just that the concubine feels that she should think about it."

Chu Jin saw that the queen raised her chin at herself, so she continued: "The nobleman Guo is no longer a concubine, how can she still live in Yong'an Palace alone? The emperor often said that the expenditure of the harem needs to increase revenue and reduce expenditure. I thought that now that Liu promised to go, the Changle Palace just had a vacant place, so why not let Guo Guiren live with Xiao and Chen. The daily expenses of the palace can also be less than the Yongan Palace, right? For a good thing."

The queen smiled and said without a smile, she will do what you want, and then said that she was tired, so she chose Chu Jin to step down.

"What the hell!" Qing Dai looked aggrieved after Chu Jin left, "Your Majesty, you are the main palace, what is she? A concubine who doesn't even have the right to assist the sixth palace, how dare you influence your Majesty to manage the affairs of the harem? Why increase income and reduce expenditure? How much expenditure can the harem women have with just a few people? She will flatter the emperor!"

"It's also her ability to flatter the emperor." The queen's expression became more and more gray, and her head was faintly blown. One hand rested on the handle of the Phoenix chair, and the other gently pressed her forehead. It's no surprise that the emperor bestows on her the right to assist the Six Palaces someday."

Qing Dai stepped forward to help the queen massage her head, and said in a soft voice: "Your Majesty, worry too much, the right to assist the six palaces can only be obtained by noble concubines and imperial concubines. She is a little concubine, and she has no face in the front court." My mother's family, I'm afraid I won't even be able to reach the concubine's position in this life, so what's the air?"

The queen sneered helplessly, "I ask you, what was the title of the queen mother when she was a noble concubine?"

Qingdai thought for a while and said: "Hua"

The queen said again: "After the death of Empress Yuan Yi, the emperor of the Holy Patriarch, Concubine Shun was promoted to the title of Royal Concubine and took charge of the affairs of the six palaces. What kind of title was given?"

Qingdai was a little scared, and dared not answer the queen's words.

The queen clenched her back molars tightly, her temples twitched, "It doesn't matter what your status is, she can't surpass me no matter what. It's just that the emperor gave her the title of Chu Jin, which is really a shame. Gong's face!"
