The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 958 Birthday (14)
Xiao Jun understood the meaning of her words, no matter how Xin Chongrong was, she couldn't wrong Yun'er, there were only these two princes in the palace, Qi'er was so delicate and expensive, naturally Yun'er shouldn't be treated differently, so she ordered: "Fuquan, go to preach the decree. Xin is full of beauty, gentleness, modesty and docile. He has made great achievements in giving birth to the second prince. After writing it, he will be named Shuyuan. I respect you."

Shuyi, Shurong, and Shuyuan are all of the fourth rank, and their status is not considered low. At least there is no need to worry that someone will dare to deduct Xin Chongrong's expenses.If Yun'er is promising in the future, he will definitely be able to fight for the wealth and honor of the two mothers.A child is not wronged and has no hatred in his heart, so he will not become as psychologically twisted and extreme as Xiao Hong.

Qingchen thought for a while and then said: "Your Majesty, it's not that the concubines have to be reasonable and unforgiving, but that the palace rules cannot be abolished. Otherwise, everyone will follow suit. Wouldn't it be messed up? The concubine thinks that the nobleman Wei should go to Xin Chongrong. I'm sorry. The emperor is very merciful if he doesn't punish her. If it passes like this, where will Xin Chongrong's face go? If she is wronged, it's fine. Do you want Yun'er to suffer such a useless attitude?"

Xiao Jun smiled and said: "I think so too, so I ordered Mrs. Wei to apologize to Xin Chongrong. If this trouble continues, I don't have to tolerate her anymore."

Now that the emperor has already dealt with this matter, Qingchen doesn't need to say any more, thinking of his own affairs, he asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, the dress of the concubine...I don't know what the emperor intends, can you tell the concubine to know? "

Xiao Jun stretched out his hand, Qingchen took two steps forward, sat in his arms obediently, and heard the emperor whisper: "I just want to see how many people in the court are supporting the queen."

Qingchen's heart sank, thinking that the emperor wants to clean up the courtiers one day?The last time she appeared in the hall, some people disdained to kneel down to her, the situation couldn't be clearer, although some people didn't understand their attitude, it was because her status was really not suitable to stand there at that time.Now, if he appeared in the court wearing the imperial concubine's dress and threatened the status of the empress, there would definitely be people who would strongly oppose it, whether to kill or keep them, I'm afraid it was time to decide their fate.

Knowing his intention, Qingchen felt at ease. Thinking of the agreement with Mianyue, Qingchen said: "Your Majesty, this concubine has made an appointment for tea with Mianyue, and I am afraid that she will be angry that my concubine will break the appointment if she is not here, so I want to go back and get ready."

Xiao Jun let her go with some reluctance, and sighed with a smile: "You are busier than me, since you have an appointment, then you can go, just don't be late for the dinner."

Qingchen hurriedly got up and saluted, "Yes, the concubine knows, and the concubine will leave."

After leaving the Imperial Study Room and walking not far away, I saw Fuquan catching up again, and handed two boxes of tea leaves to Yunlan, saying, "Your Majesty, the emperor rewarded you with two boxes of the best sparrow tea for your hospitality."

Qing Chen hurriedly said: "Then Mr. Lao Fu will thank the emperor on behalf of the palace."

Fuquan smiled, bowed and said, "I have made a note of this, my lady, go slowly."

Sure enough, when she came back from the imperial study, Mianyue had already arrived, and she was playing with her colorful parrot on the porch. Seeing her coming back, she put down the small silver pot in her hand and came forward with a smile: "Your maid said you I went to Yuqian, I thought you wouldn't come back this afternoon."

Qingchen glanced at the tea leaves in Yun Lan's hand and said, "Since we have an appointment with the princess, how can we break our promise? I went to the imperial court to ask the emperor for tea. The princess is my distinguished guest, so naturally I can't neglect you."

Bringing Mianyue into the East Nuan Pavilion, Qingchen personally made tea, and the two chatted over the tea for a long time, and Qingchen gave Mianyue's mother a bonsai of red coral gemstone birthday peaches as a birthday present.After all, Mianyue was restless and couldn't sit still, so Qingchen changed her clothes again, and took her for a stroll in the imperial garden for half an hour.At dusk, they went to Xinhua Hall to have a banquet together.

The emperor and empress have not yet arrived, but the envoys from several neighboring small countries are already waiting. Qingchen ordered people to serve fruit plates to entertain the guests, and after a few words with Mianyue, he saw Murong Shaocheng take Leading his entourage, wearing a Shu brocade robe with moon-white silver thread and dark embroidered dragon patterns, he walked leisurely into the hall. The jade-colored tassel purse on his waist swayed gently with his steps.

As soon as he came in, everyone's eyes lit up. If the bright moon shines into the palace, it will suddenly become colorful. Many people looked at this outstanding, handsome man in front of him with admiration. Some stood up to say hello, while others whispered. whisper.

Murong Shaocheng greeted everyone present politely and generously, saw her and Mianyue, walked over, bowed and said: "Xiao Wang has seen Concubine Chen and Princess Mianyue."

Princess Mianyue blushed slightly, and hurriedly got up to return the salute, "Prince Jing'an is polite."

Qingchen also had a polite and alienated smile, and said gently: "It's been hard work for King Jing'an to come all the way, please take a seat."

King Jing'an stretched out his hand, and the entourage at the side hurriedly put a brocade box into his hands. Murong Shaocheng brought the brocade box to Qing Chen and said with a smile: "My mother's birthday, Xiao Wang's little heart is nothing but respect." Please accept it with a smile."

Yun Lan took a step forward to take it, then opened the lid of the box, and was taken aback.She is someone who has seen the world, and she can tell at a glance that the bead inside is not ordinary.

Qingchen was also surprised, since entering the palace, the emperor's rewards have not been cut off, what kind of good things has she not seen?But this bead is so unique, it is as gorgeous as the bright moon.

Murong Shaocheng saw her looking over suspiciously, and explained lightly: "Suihouzhu."

Everyone who heard it was shocked, but he looked calm and indifferent.

The strange way is so eye-catching, so it is it.The Suihou Pearl is as famous as the Heshi Bi, and it is the most precious treasure in the world. It once fell into the hands of the Empress Dowager by chance, and the Empress Dowager donated it to the princess of the neighboring country in the east. , became a good talk in the world, but unexpectedly this bead ended up in the hands of Murong Shaocheng.

Murong Shaocheng said meaningfully: "No matter how many treasures Xiao Wang has seen before, it is unique in Xiao Wang's heart, and only you are worthy of having it."

Others could not understand such a tactful hint, but Qingchen understood it in her heart. She raised her hand to close the lid of the box, and said lightly, "Yun Lan, return the things to Prince Jing'an, I am just a little second-rank concubine." Concubine, I can't afford this great gift from the prince, I have accepted it, so I should return the things."

Hearing what she said, Murong Shaocheng didn't have the slightest displeasure on his face, or even a trace of unnaturalness, he just pushed back the things that were sent to him with a fan, and said with an evil smile at the corner of his mouth: " I believe in fate. Since I feel that this bead is destined to be with my mother, I will not take it back after sending it out. If it is destined to belong to me, even if it falls into the hands of others temporarily, it will return to me sooner or later. , if that’s the case, why does the empress insist on not accepting it?”
