Chapter 530 One stone stirs up waves (1)
While talking, he still didn't forget to look at Concubine Luo with a half-smile, which meant to tell Concubine Luo, don't think that I have only one place to go in your Chonghua Palace, as long as I think, I can't go anywhere in this palace!
Concubine Luo didn't seem to hear it, she was only enjoying the singing and dancing below, but she was actually holding the veil tightly in her hand, it was like this every time, every time she was about to waver in the next moment, the emperor lost patience in the last moment, didn't she just let go Such and such cruel words, just doing such and such things to poke her heart, make her continue to be angry and sad, and only accuse her of ignorance of good and evil, and the person who does not remembrance of years of love is himself. ?

Unexpectedly, Empress Xu also smiled and politely rejected the emperor: "The concubine promised to copy three thousand volumes of scriptures for the mother before the ninth day of the first lunar month. There are hundreds of volumes. Although tonight is a good day to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, it is necessary to read at night by candlelight. Why don't the emperor go to the mother's harem to watch the new year with the mother? It is rare for the emperor to spend the whole night with the mother in a year Given the opportunity, the queen mother must be very happy."

Empress Dowager Luo has long seen the eyebrow-eye lawsuit between the emperor and Concubine Luo, and she has long known about Concubine Luo and her son's quarrel. It's not easy for her to lose face, so she can only tolerate her and praise her.

Now I don't bother to pay attention to these anymore, thinking to myself that my son, as the king of a country, has already praised you like that, but you don't know what is good or bad, and you want to be angry with him for a long time, I really think that my son can only guard you for the rest of his life It's been a while, no matter what you do, you can't fly out of your Wuzhi Mountain?
Then he immediately took the Queen's words and said with a smile: "The Ai family really wants the emperor to watch the new year with the Ai family, but I don't know if the emperor is willing?"

My mother has talked about this, how can the emperor disagree, not to mention that he has been rejected by his concubine and his wife one after another, and he lacks a ladder to step down, so he also smiled and said: "My son is willing." .”

So after noon, when the banquet was over and everyone was gone, the emperor did not go to Empress Xu's Fengyi Hall to get a job, and then went back to Qianyuan Hall to let people quietly bring Concubine Luo to join him. Instead, he went to Shoukang Hall to accompany Queen Mother Luo to watch the year.

It's just that although the emperor is in the Shoukang Palace, his heart has already flown to the Chonghua Palace. The Empress Dowager Luo saw it and knew what her son was thinking, so she didn't point it out. The voice is very pleasant, especially when reciting Buddhist scriptures, it makes people feel inexplicably calm and at ease, and people immediately pass it on to the latter.

But it might as well be that the court girl is very gentle and beautiful, gentle and beautiful is still secondary, what is important is the bookish and charm of the whole body, very much like Concubine Luo when she was young, the emperor came to the side hall of Shoukang Palace on a whim the latter……

The emperor was partly because he drank a lot at the palace banquet before, and partly because he was angry with the imperial concubine.

As soon as Concubine Luo Gui was with him, he promised her that she would be the only one for the rest of her life. This is also the reason why in the past few months, no matter how angry or aggrieved he was, he never visited other concubines. Who knew that tonight he broke his promise. In the situation where she already thought he was going back on his word, once this matter got to her ears, it was uncertain how angry she would be and how much she would hate him. It was predictable. The relationship between them has already fallen to the freezing point, and it will only get worse. What should we do then?
But the emperor regretted it, but he had to give the maid a place. After all, the latter belonged to the Empress Dowager Luo, and he was lucky to be with her in the Shoukang Palace. There's no such thing as son, isn't he just slapping his mother in the face?As a matter of fact, the court lady had to be given the status of a fourth-rank beauty, and she was placed in the Chunxi Palace not far from the Shoukang Palace.

Now that the palace maid has become a concubine, everyone can no longer call her by her first name like before. After asking her maiden name Gu, everyone prefixed her surname to her beauty, and everyone called her Gu Meiren.

The next day was the first day of the first lunar month, and all civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and all imperial wives should enter the palace to congratulate the emperor and empress according to the rule.

Although it is only a few hours since the emperor had a good fortune with Gu Meiren last night, the harem is the most crowded place, and it is not that the rich and powerful families do not have their own sources of news in the palace, so that all the wives are ordered to return. Before waiting for Empress Xu's ascension to the throne outside Fengyi Hall, most of them knew about this matter, so I don't need to elaborate on how surprised I was at the moment.

Surprised, except for a few people who sympathized with Concubine Luo Gui, or felt sorry for her, more people gloated. It is common for men to have three wives and four concubines. Even men like us have wives and concubines in groups. Why? The emperor was born to be the supreme being in the world, but he has been guarding you to live alone, treating the three thousand beauties in the harem as decorations?Your life is indeed a little better. God didn't open his eyes before, but now God has finally opened his eyes and made the emperor change his mind. He no longer just guards you alone. Let's see how proud you will be in the future!

I also heard that Gu Meiren was originally a person close to the Empress Dowager Luo, so she became more and more gloating, even your own aunt couldn't stand your frivolous appearance, and was going to recommend another newcomer for the emperor. It's time to end!

Those who are more far-sighted are already thinking about the current momentum. Although Concubine Luo Guifei has not fallen out of favor, she is clearly not as good as before. I don't know whether the heart of the emperor, King Lining, will be shaken or even How much has changed?This matter must be discussed in the long run.

Everyone was whispering or flirting, when a eunuch trotted out and sang: "The Empress has been promoted to the throne—"

All the imperial orders consciously divided them into civil and military classes according to the rank of their husbands, and after the wives congratulated Empress Xu, they filed to the main hall of Fengyi Hall.

The two groups of people met outside Fengyi Hall without accident, and all the wives all looked forward without any trace, thinking that they could see Concubine Luo, but they didn't know that she would be sad and haggard after going through such a big blow What is it like?
It's a pity that Concubine Xiao Ding is the one who leads the concubines today, and Concubine Luo is nowhere to be seen, and the wives are doomed to be disappointed.

There are also some more obedient ones, who have searched the crowd for Gu Meiren, the emperor's new favorite, without any trace, thinking that the one who can attract the emperor's attention under the stunning beauty of Concubine Luo must be a beauty that is not inferior to Concubine Luo. Son, they should have a better experience today.

But when everyone looked around, they couldn't see any new faces among the concubines. Apparently Gu Meiren didn't come to congratulate Empress Xu today, and everyone suddenly realized that Gu Meiren has accepted the favor, even though she has the title of beauty , but the canonization ceremony has not yet been performed, and naturally the dress and phoenix crown have not been made in time, and she did not appear in the ranks of concubines, which is what should be done in the title.
