Concubine Biography

Chapter 74

Wearing a pink-blue palace attire, with a crescent moon bun and a few taels of pearls and jade hairpin decorations, Chen Xi'er bowed to Fu'er solemnly with her eyebrows curved.

"The courtier has met the imperial concubine, and the imperial concubine is a thousand years old!"

Fu'er hurriedly stepped forward to help her up, her voice choked with sobs, "Get up, we sisters haven't seen each other for six years in a blink of an eye, you've grown into a big girl..."

Xi'er took Fu'er's hand and said tearfully, "Sister, I miss you so much..."

"Don't cry, don't cry," Fu'er pulled Xi'er to sit down, and reached out to wipe her tears, "This time you enter the palace and stay in the palace for a while, and you will go back later."

Xi'er twitched, "Sister, I'd better go back in two days, my mother told me not to stay in the palace for too long, it's not good..."

"Why?" Fu'er wondered.

Guan Nu, who accompanied Xi'er, smiled and said, "Miss Si, you see that you made the imperial concubine cry when you came. The imperial concubine just gave birth, so you can't waste your energy. Didn't you just shout to see the little girl before you came?" The prince? Please, miss, take our Fourth Miss to see the little prince."

As soon as Fu'er heard it, she knew that Nanny Guan had something to say to her, so she also nodded, "Let Hong Ying take you to see Pei Ling and Pei Yan, they are going to take a nap after playing for a while, and you are not allowed to go after the nap." bother them."

Xi'er obediently stood up, "Okay, sister, then I'll go."

Fu'er smiled and nodded, watching Hong Ying lead her out.

"Tell me, what's the reason why mother called you here?" Fu'er excused the nun and asked her to sit down.

Nanny Guan sighed, "Mother, the master should have told you that the emperor..." Nanny Guan hesitated to speak.

"You said."

"Your Majesty, he once said that he would not allow the Master and the others to betroth Miss Fourth easily. I... don't know what the Majesty means?" Guan Nuo asked worriedly.

In fact, when Nanny Guan mentioned Li Jiarong, Fu'er had already guessed what was going on.

"No matter what the emperor means, what does mother mean?" Fu'er decided to ask what the family thought.

Guan Numo thought for a while and said, "Ma'am, does the Emperor still remember this matter? If he doesn't remember, please ask the empress to make the decision and choose a good marriage for Miss Fourth. It will also avoid long nights and dreams, and other things will happen." Come on. The fourth lady is getting older now, and the empress has also seen it. The roots grow like flowers. This woman is like a grass seed, which can only grow beautifully when it falls on a good field. Those that have been uprooted, even if they grow from the roots, they will probably wither."

Fu'er pondered for a moment, "I see, you stay with my little sister in the palace for a while. This matter is up to me."

The meaning of the family is very clear, and they don't want Xi'er to enter the palace.Fu'er sighed softly, she has lived in the palace for so long, how could she not know where the palace is?Even if Li Jiarong moved her mind, she would never agree!It is enough for the Chen family to have her, there is no need for another concubine!
At night when Li Jiarong was having dinner, he asked, "Did you call my little sister into the palace today?"

Fu'er calmly picked up a chopstick dish for Li Jiarong, "Yeah, I think our sisters haven't seen each other for six years, and I also miss her."

"Then why didn't you invite me to eat together?" Li Jiarong asked.

Fu'er added soup, "She's embarrassed, but I didn't force her to see the emperor restraining her."

Li Jiarong looked up at her, and said with a half-smile, "I'm her brother-in-law, what's there to be embarrassed about, do you feel restrained when eating with me?"

This is the first time Li Jiarong called her title in private.

Fu'er's heart shrank, and she forced herself to be calm, "The concubine dare not."

"Oh, I dare not." Li Jiarong put down the bowl and wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, "Use it, I have no appetite."

After saying that, Li Jiarong got up and went to the back room crookedly, leaving the inexplicable Fu'er angry alone, okay, why is she angry again?

Fu'er lost her appetite, and ordered people to remove the food.

After taking a bath, Li Jiarong lay on the bed first. When Fu'er opened the curtain, she saw Li Jiarong's back was facing her, leaving a big space for her. Fu'er didn't care, just lay down and closed her eyes to sleep.

After sleeping for a while, Fu'er felt something was wrong. Why did it get colder the more she slept?Opening his eyes, it turned out that Li Jiarong had almost snatched the entire quilt to his side, and the cold wind was blowing in, no wonder Fu'er felt cold all over.

Fu'er had no choice but to pull the quilt lightly, and finally pulled the quilt to her side. Fu'er sighed and continued to sleep. After a while, the quilt was pulled away a lot.

Fu'er stared at Li Jiarong's back for a long time before pulling the quilt over, covering the quilt, Fu'er thought for a while, and said softly, "If the emperor is pulling the quilt, the concubine will go outside and sleep on the kang."

After saying this, Fu'er closed her eyes in peace, and when she was falling asleep in a daze, she suddenly felt that her body was getting heavier and heavier, and it was as hot as a stove.

Fu'er opened her eyes weakly again, and saw Li Jiarong's handsome face next to her, and Li Jiarong's hands and feet were all on her body, she was almost pushed to the edge of the bed.

"Your majesty...the concubine is very hot..." Fu'er was really speechless, she carefully pulled out her arms, just as one arm was pulled out, Li Jiarong's hand hugged her tightly, and the big palm was still on hers on the chest.

"..."

Fu'er took a deep breath, then turned her head and asked Li Jiarong with difficulty, "The emperor will go to court early tomorrow, can we sleep well?"

Li Jiarong's eyes were closed tightly, as if she was asleep, Fu'er was angry from the heart, and her tone was not good, "You have to go to court tomorrow, and I have to go to pay my respects tomorrow, what are you embarrassing about, Your Majesty?" ah?"

"I'm angry!" After a long time, Li Jiarong said sullenly.

As long as you are willing to talk, Fu'er asked impatiently, "Why is the emperor so angry?"

"You don't believe me." Li Jiarong said in a muffled voice.

Fu'er was puzzled, "Why don't I trust you?"

"You let your sister hide from me, are you not guarding against me? You have no conscience!" Li Jiarong finally opened his eyes, said something angrily, and turned his back to Fu'er.

Fu'er didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but in the blink of an eye, she realized that this was a good opportunity, so she hurriedly leaned over and asked, "Your Majesty, what do you think? Why don't you let Xi'er marry? You don't really want her to enter the palace, do you? Let me say it first, she is my younger sister, you have no objection to the emperor who you want to take into the palace as a concubine, but she is the only one who can't."

She said that other things were fine, but when she said this, Li Jiarong's face turned dark, and she pulled the quilt directly, "Noisy!"

Fu'er was left there, glaring fiercely at Li Jiarong's back, then Fu'er grabbed the quilt and covered herself, thinking about it for a while, she was puzzled, her buttocks turned, and she pushed Li Jiarong hard Just close your eyes and go to sleep.

Naturally, Xi'er was going to visit the queen when she entered the palace, and Fu'er brought Xi'er with her when she paid her respects the next day.Su Shi was very polite, "Since you're here, please stay longer and have a good talk with your sister."

Xi'er bent her knee obediently, "Yes, empress."

"Come here, bring the bright yellow Su brocade in the warehouse of this palace as a reward to Miss Chen. I am too old to wear these fresh and tender colors. It is suitable for a little girl like you." Su said gently. Say.

Xi'er looked at Fu'er, Fu'er nodded slightly, and then Xi'er knelt down again to thank, "Thank you Empress Empress."

After a few more pleasantries, Fu'er took Xi'er back to Zhaoyang Palace.

As soon as they left, Alan also resigned, Su Shi winked at Su Qi, Su Qi understood, and bent her knees to go out.Su Qi took a few quick steps and caught up with Alan who was walking in front.

"When I met Miss Chen Si today, Xiu Yi didn't feel anything?" Su Qi walked side by side with Alan and said softly.

Alan glared at her, "It's none of my business for the imperial concubine to come to see her?"

"Does Xiuyi know why the imperial concubine called her younger sister into the palace just after giving birth to the prince?" Walking to a fork in the road, one side is the imperial garden, and the other is the way back to the palace. "The Imperial Garden is ahead, does Xiuyi want to go for a walk with Ben Gong?"

Alan thought about it, and finally set foot on the road to the imperial garden, "My sister also wants to hear what my sister thinks."

On the gravel road in the imperial garden, Su Qi said softly, "The noble concubine called her sister over just after she gave birth to the prince. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the noble concubine wants her sister to come into the palace to be pampered."

"Stupid favor?" Alan asked suspiciously, "Why do you want her sister to be a solid pet? The imperial concubine already has two princes, and she is deeply favored by the emperor. There is no need to do this."

"What if the imperial concubine can't give birth again? After the imperial concubine gave birth to the little prince, the soup and medicine will not leave her mouth. It is obviously harmful to her body. Under such circumstances, it is better than outsiders to find her own sister to be in the palace." Su stretched out his hand Pushing aside the branches on the road, he gave Alan a meaningful look.

Alan's heart turned cold and he didn't answer.

"Sister, I have already seen through it. Our Su family has already produced a queen empress. It is natural for the emperor to look down on me in order to prevent the relatives from becoming bigger. But the younger sister is different. The younger sister bears the hope of the people of southern Xinjiang, so I can't be with my elder sister. Same, you will not be able to see the emperor for the rest of your life."

Su Qi walked slowly, and said slowly, "Although our emperor is about to stand up, all the men in the Li family are good-looking. Besides, what woman doesn't like the emperor's temperament? My sister has been in the palace for so long, she must be looking In my eyes, how the emperor dotes on the imperial concubine is really painful, doesn't the younger sister want to take her place?"

"What on earth do you mean?" Alan stopped in his tracks, with a hint of excitement in his heart.

Su Qi turned her head and looked at her with a smile, "The imperial concubine needs someone to do favor now, if Miss Chen Si cannot do so, then my sister thinks, who will the imperial concubine choose?"

"That wouldn't be me either." Alan turned his head away.Although she has seen little in the world, she is not an ignorant girl. She offended the imperial concubine from the very beginning. No matter how she pleases her these days, the imperial concubine still treats her indifferently.

Even if the imperial concubine wanted someone to favor her, she would not choose her!

"Wrong!" Su Qi raised her head and said, "It's not impossible, it's not necessarily true! If Miss Chen Si can't be favored, and there is no suitable candidate for a while, and the imperial concubine has no choice, she can only choose the most well-behaved one around her." The two female officials next to her will be released to marry next year, and even the dowry has been set. My sister said, do you have this opportunity?"

"Then what will happen, so Miss Chen Si won't be able to keep her favorite?" Alan's heart was moved.

Su Qi pointed to the stones not far from the lake and said, "The stones here are covered with moss. If you accidentally walk on them, you will easily fall. If you accidentally slip and fall in the lake, what should you do..."

Alan looked at Su Qi for a long time, and sneered, "If my sister is determined to help my sister, then please help her to the end, otherwise my sister is also worried that my sister will bite back, so my sister is not worth the loss?"

Su Qi pondered for a moment, "Okay, we sisters are united today, and my sister will definitely solve the difficulties with my sister to show my sincerity."

"What time?" Alan asked.

Su Qi thought for a while, "Miss Chen Si will definitely stay here for a while if she wants to enter the palace. After ten days, I will find a way to lure her here. The rest is up to my sister."

"No!" Alan said coldly, "This is not enough, my sister also hopes that my sister can arrange a dead man who is good at swimming to ambush in advance, and we must kill the grass!"
