palace heart

Chapter 69 Entering the Harem as a Concubine (4)
However, just as Li Qianlan sent Prince Chengxian away, Eunuch Xi suddenly led a group of eunuchs, high and low, carrying trays of various colors and wooden boxes of all sizes, and ran into the palace. There are palace people from other places outside the arch, looking in with their heads poking around, just wanting to see something new and inquire about it in time.

Eunuch Xi stood still, took out a yellow imperial edict embroidered with dragon patterns from the eunuch's tray beside him, and said in a shrill voice, "The emperor's imperial edict has arrived, and Li Qianlan came out to receive it."

Li Qianlan's heart thumped and sank to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. If Chen Jinghua hadn't pushed her in time, she would have been shocked by the appearance of Eunuch Xi and would never move.

It's over, parents, the child is unfilial and embarrassing to the elders, Li Qianlan felt sad, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the leader to receive the order: "I accept the order."

Eunuch Xi was illiterate, so he passed the edict in his hand to the little eunuch next to him. The little eunuch was ordered to open the edict, and began to read aloud: "By God, the emperor said: Among the maids, Mrs. Li, Pizhao Shuhui, and Henghuang have Then, hold the bow Shushen, the nature is peaceful, Zang Jia is the nature, and asked about Shu in Xuan Palace; bow respectfully, the tree is famous in Jiaoye, and now I seal you as Concubine Shu with the book seal, and give you the Jingyang Palace. He is gentle, respectful and respectful, accepts his husband's benevolent orders, is humble and restrained, and gathers his husband's prosperity forever. Thank you."

It turned out to be a fact, and it can no longer be hidden, so let's admit it, then make good use of the imperial power, make good use of Concubine Shu's rights, and quickly settle everything.Moreover, it is obvious that Emperor Ying didn't accept her sooner or later, and he insisted on accepting her when Shen Mojun woke up and could bear the blow. What's the point?

Emperor Ying couldn't be mad at Shen Mojun, but continued to control Shen Mojun by controlling Li Qianlan.

Emperor Ying, your calculations are too shallow. After trying to understand this, Li Qianlan calmed down. She kowtowed to accept the order, and said in a loud voice: "I accept the order, long live my emperor, long live, long live."

Qiu Yun helped Li Qianlan up. Eunuch Xi laughed so hard that he couldn't see his teeth. He leaned forward and handed over the imperial decree: "Congratulations to Mr. Li on his success in the sky, and to his concubine Shu's seat."

"Reward." Li Qianlan really didn't want to see Eunuch Xi again, but he was the closest person to Emperor Ying, and with her current status, she couldn't offend him.

Qiu Yun found a small gold ingot from the house. Eunuch Xi took it, weighed it, looked at Li Qianlan with satisfaction and reminded: "Ms. Shu, the emperor has a decree for you to stay in the Jingyang Palace. They are all things that the emperor just rewarded today, so I will let them move there together."

Jingyang Palace is the palace where Liu Ruyun lived before his death. Emperor Ying assigned this palace to her, of course, to remind her to be obedient and cooperate, otherwise she will end up like Liu Ruyun.

Concubine Concubine Shu was conferred the title of Concubine Shu without attendants. This is probably the greatest honor for a woman in the harem since the founding of the People's Republic of China. Concubine Wu was surprised and delighted when she heard the news, with mixed feelings.

Surprisingly, Lady Wu has been paying attention to Emperor Ying's movements since Emperor Ying reported his words. Every day, she will ask the concubine who Emperor Ying chooses to sleep with, she will ask the maid to inquire carefully. She is afraid that Emperor Ying will call Li Qianlan to sleep. But Emperor Ying didn't ask Li Qianlan to go to bed for a long time.

After a few days, Concubine Wu began to think that Emperor Ying had just played a big joke with them, and she was about to let this matter go, but Li Qianlan won the respect of Concubine Shu without serving her bed. The position, approaching the imperial concubine, became the second highest ranking person in the harem.

Li Qianlan threatened Concubine Wu's status, how could she not be surprised!
The good news is that Li Qianlan just named Concubine Shu, and did not become queen as they had rumored, so she still has a chance to fight for the next position.

Concubine Wu has always been a smiling tiger with a heart like a snake and a scorpion. The next day she heard the news, she was the highest-ranking concubine next to the Emperor, and asked someone to bring generous gifts to visit Li Qianlan in Jingyang Palace.

Emperor Ying appointed Li Qianlan as Concubine Shu, which is enough to show her status in Emperor Ying's heart, but Concubine Wu did not understand that Emperor Ying valued her so much, but why did Emperor Ying do such a shabby canonization ceremony? So hasty?

"My younger sister is both talented and virtuous. She is beautiful and intelligent. She was appreciated by the Empress Dowager earlier, and now she has won the Emperor's heart. She has not served the bed, and has not conceived a dragon fetus. She jumped up and broke the rules of the ancestors. This woman who entered the palace can This is really enviable!" Concubine Wu Gui has the charm of a mature woman, she is dressed in luxury, jewels, and the corners of her eyes are slightly raised to Li Qianlan, very unconvinced, but the smile on her face is piled up again. A brilliant flower.

She and Yingdi have never been friendly, they are only using and being used, even now, this relationship still exists.

Li Qianlan looked at Concubine Wu, how could Li Qianlan forget Liu Ruyun's smile before she passed away.How could Li Qianlan forget that the Wu family killed Li Jiangshi, so revenge on Li Qianlan was planned to start here.

Li Qianlan deliberately disapproved and chuckled: "Who knows the emperor's heart, today a concubine can become a concubine Shu if she does nothing, and if she does nothing tomorrow, she might already be a prisoner. Honor and disgrace are all in the emperor's momentary preferences. But my sister is different. Although you are not loved by three thousand people, you are also extremely honored and favored. The concubines around the emperor have changed from batch to batch, but the status of sister has never been Shaken. So sister, don't envy the promotion of the concubine at this moment, just like the epiphyllum is beautiful, but its beauty is just a flash, too hastily."

How could Concubine Wu not like to hear these words, she felt that Li Qianlan's words were too reasonable, and the smile on her face could not help but soften a bit of hostility.

Li Qianlan's favorite game is to lift people up and then smash them down. Seeing that Concubine Wu was already showing a proud expression, when she wanted to show off her status, Li Qianlan hurriedly spoke and blocked her mouth. Picking a thorn in the flesh of Concubine Wu, he said: "No one can hold the emperor's heart forever, and the emperor's preferences cannot remain unchanged. The emperor let his concubine sit on the throne of concubine Shu for no reason today, and maybe he will let his concubine sit on the throne tomorrow." The position of empress must belong to the emperor after all! In the future, when a concubine ascends to the position of empress, that concubine will be the empress. The empress can die, but she cannot be abolished. This is the rule of the court!"

In the past, she didn't want to suppress Li Qianlan, but only wanted to deal with Liu Ruyun, who threatened her status by competing for favor. Now that Liu Ruyun is dead, if Li Qianlan finds out that her mother killed Li Jiang, Li Qianlan will definitely not let her go. Concubine Wu had already made up her mind and said cruelly: "The rain and dew are evenly spread, and the six palaces are peaceful, so that the royal heirs and blessings can last. No concubine can play tricks on the emperor in order to get special favors. This is the royal rule. After Empress Zheng passes away, the affairs of the harem will be taken care of by me for the time being, so I hope my sister will keep this in mind and don't embarrass me when the time comes."

Li Qianlan doesn't believe that Concubine Wu can keep pretending, she just wants to force Concubine Wu to take action, to treat Concubine Wu as an enemy, to drive Concubine Wu to go crazy, she sneered in her heart: "Although my sister is the temporary master of the harem, she still has to do a lot for her." The emperor manages it, so that the emperor will not have any worries. The emperor is destined to apply rain and dew to the six palaces, and the concubines dare not, and will not monopolize the favor, but if the emperor insists on favoring the concubines, there is no way for the concubines .”

Concubine Wu hated her so much that she had just assumed the position, so she carried her on her shoulders. What would she do as a noble concubine in the future? Li Qianlan is a new weed in the harem and must be eradicated.

Emperor Ying was very proud when he heard this. He just likes Li Qianlan like this, who has backbone and personality.

Emperor Ying went to visit Li Qianlan, and Li Qianlan also received him very kindly and politely, treating him politely as an invisible thing.

In the evening, Eunuch Xi asked: "Is the emperor staying in the Jingyang Hall tonight?"

Li Qianlan's body stiffened involuntarily.
