concubine queen

Chapter 80

Yu Mingqian stayed with Feng Xi for one night in Qianque Palace, and went to court early the next morning.Because Feng Xi was pregnant, she got up a little later, but she still made it in time to pay her respects to the queen.Originally, the concubine also wanted to pay her respects to the queen mother, but the queen mother disturbed Qing Jing, so that the queen did not have to bring the concubine, so she only had to pay her respects to the queen every day.

Ning Tong dressed Feng Xi and helped her to wash, and then helped her to go to the Queen's Chongyang Palace to pay her respects.

Zhang Huiyi got up early today, she heard the news of Fengxi's pregnancy last night, and also heard that the emperor promoted Fengxi as Jieyu, she didn't know what it was like, she knew that she couldn't compare in her family background and appearance Fengxi, so at this moment, she only increased her envy in vain, she still had to curry favor with Fengxi, otherwise her life in the palace would not be easy, and maybe she could gain some face by following Fengxi.

"My concubine greets Jieyu." Seeing Feng Xi, she bowed politely. Although she and Feng Xi became sisters in private, they still had to abide by etiquette outside.

Seeing that Zhang Huiyi was the same as before, Feng Xi also said gently, "Beauty Zhang, please."

Zhang Huiyi stood up straight in response, looked at Fengxi, and found that she hadn't been to her palace for more than ten days, Fengxi did look a lot thinner, it seems that pregnancy is not an easy task.Zhang Huiyi stepped forward to support Fengxi, and said with a smile.

"Jieyu, Huiyi was very happy to hear the news that Jieyu was pregnant yesterday, and wanted to go to greet her yesterday, but she was afraid of disturbing Jieyu, so she had to come here this morning and wait."

Feng Xi knew that Zhang Huiyi was flattering herself intentionally, so she didn't show cold face. Zhang Huiyi was smart, knowing that the emperor didn't favor her very much, so she knew how to flatter herself to live in the deep palace.

"Sister Huiyi's wish is known to Feng Xi, and Feng Xi accepts it, let's hurry up and salute the queen, we can't miss the hour."

After hearing this, Zhang Huiyi knew that Fengxi was still good to her, so she stopped worrying, and happily walked towards Chongyang Palace with Fengxi.

At this time, they didn't know that Chongyang Palace is very lively now.

Early in the morning, the queen was waiting for the concubines to come to greet her. The concubine Cheng and Concubine Xiao who always came late came first, followed by concubines Su Qinrou and Jian Yingqiu who arrived after Zhou Liwei. She just had two concubines. Yue is pregnant, and her stomach is not obvious yet, but she has been growing up for a month, which makes her a little fatter, but it doesn't affect her appearance at all.

Seeing Jian Yingqiu like that, Zhou Liwei felt unhappy, so she stumbled inadvertently when she passed by, Jian Yingqiu didn't stand still, and almost fell to the ground, but Su Qinrou who was beside her reacted quickly and caught her , to keep her from falling.

After Jian Yingqiu got up, she thanked Su Qinju first, then turned around and glared at Zhou Liwei, pointing at her.

"Zhou Cairen! You actually tripped me up! Aren't you afraid that something will happen to the emperor's heir in my lord's belly!?"

The Empress and Concubine Xiao are old people in the palace, so they naturally know that this kind of thing should be stabilized first, and they should check the situation before speaking, so they all remained silent.Su Qinrou's concubines also dare not speak, because their status is too low.

Seeing Jian Yingqiu glaring at her, Zhou Liwei wasn't nervous. Instead, she raised her forehead and looked directly at Jian Yingqiu.

"Jian Fangyi, there must be evidence to accuse someone wrongly, what about your evidence?"

After Jian Yingqiu heard Zhou Liwei's words, she trembled with anger. She fell down just now when she passed by Zhou Liwei. Who else could she have? Although her family background is not as good as hers, she is much more favored than Zhou Liwei. Here, it is naturally different, but the momentum is still there.

"Zhou Cairen, the master just passed by you before he fell to the ground. The empress and everyone can see clearly. What evidence do you need?"

Seeing that Jian Yingqiu pulled them out, the queen and the others felt displeased but did not express it.

"Jian Fangyi, you can't use your identity to overwhelm your concubine just because you are pregnant. Although my concubine is humble, she won't let others insult my personality!"

Zhou Liwei's plausible words made Jian Yingqiu unable to answer for a while, so she just stood there in a daze, only glaring.

Seeing that the incident was getting a little serious, the queen was about to speak to stop it, but she was taken aback when she heard a crisp voice outside.

I saw Ning Jieyu walking in with a white dress and a peach blossom face, walked up to her, and bowed gracefully.

"Empress, the concubine has not come to pay her respects for a long time, and please forgive me, Empress."

Concubine Cheng and Concubine Xiao both looked at Ning Jieyu in surprise, and were vigilant in their hearts. Since that incident, Ning Lan has never appeared in front of the people in the palace, and has been hiding in that hut by herself. I don't know why I came to the queen's palace today, and it happened when Zhou Liwei and Jian Yingqiu were arguing fiercely, wouldn't it be suspicious?

The queen was also taken aback, only to react after being reminded by Yuqing beside her, and smiled kindly.

"Sister Lan is serious. You haven't come for a long time. I'm very happy, Yuqing, give a seat to Sister Lan."

Yu Qing who was beside the queen hurriedly took a soft chair and placed it beside Xiao Bin.

Ning Lan saluted again, then turned around and looked at Concubine Cheng and Concubine Xiao, bowing.

"The concubine has met the concubine Cheng and the concubine Xiao."

At this time, Concubine Cheng and Concubine Xiao have put aside their old prejudices, looked at each other, and knew what was going on.

"Ning Jieyu, please." The two said in unison.

Ning Lan heard that they were just playing around, so she smiled and said with a twist of her mouth.

"I haven't seen my two sisters for a long time. The two sisters are still so young and beautiful, and their faces are radiant."

As soon as Ning Lan said this, the faces of Concubine Cheng and Concubine Xiao changed slightly, both of them were dissatisfied with Ning Lan's words in their hearts. Both of them had already conceived the emperor's heir, and no matter how young they were, it was impossible for them to be younger The newly promoted concubine, Ning Lan's words were obviously a compliment, but secretly they made the two of them disgusted by the queen.

"No matter how young and beautiful the two of us are, we are not as good as sister Jieyu. I think you were the one held in the hands of the emperor back then. We were just lucky enough to conceive a dragon heir. Otherwise, the two of us might still be little concubines now. .”

Concubine Cheng wanted to speak out when she felt unhappy. She usually speaks sharply, and today is no exception. Ning Lan immediately remembered the tragedy of her family being ransacked, and her face turned pale instantly. She wanted to talk to Concubine Cheng again A few words, but after thinking about it, that's not the reason she came out today, so she stopped worrying and regained her composure.

"Concubine Cheng has lost her concubine." After finishing speaking, she sat down and stopped talking.

Seeing Ning Jieyu coming, Zhou Liwei became more confident, and was about to argue with Jian Yingqiu, but seeing Feng Xi and Zhang Huiyi coming in together, she stopped talking.

As soon as Feng Xi and Zhang Huiyi came in, they saw Zhou Liwei and Jian Yingqiu confronting each other.Feng Xi didn't think it was strange seeing Ning Jieyu, but Zhang Huiyi had never seen Ning Jieyu before, so she looked at her curiously.
