Rather be a concubine

Chapter 139
Right now, Bo Yuqiao is still supporting the old lady as she slowly walks into Ci'an Palace.

Wherever the eye comes into view, it is full of gold and jade splendor.Not to mention the tall red coral placed in the corner of the main hall, you can only smell the faint fragrance diffused in the hall, which is extremely precious agarwood.It must be known that the same amount of agarwood is much more valuable than gold, such a rare thing, I am afraid that only the Empress Dowager, the Ci'an Palace, can offer it every day.

At this moment, there is a chair made of golden nanmu in the middle of the hall. This chair is about one foot wide, and it is covered with finely carved patterns of golden phoenix. On the golden nanmu chair, it is really extremely wasteful.

Seeing the Empress Dowager wearing a rose-red and golden double-layer wide satin long-tailed Luan robe, Bo Yuqiao couldn't help but feel a little emotional. Such a luxurious hairpin as a phoenix spreading its wings and six sides inlaid with jade inlaid with seven treasures and Ming Jin Buyao can only be made by This is the most honorable woman in the world.Thinking of the fact that she was lucky enough to meet the Empress Dowager eight years ago when the girl was in the test, she now sees that the appearance of the Empress Dowager has not changed at all in the past eight years. It adds a touch of compelling momentum.

Seeing the empress dowager's unwavering phoenix eyes, Bo Yuqiao couldn't help but tremble, and didn't dare to raise her head again, for fear of offending the empress dowager.

Following everyone bowed down to the Empress Dowager, they said loudly.

"Greetings to the Empress Dowager!"

Empress Dowager An looked coldly at the kneeling madam and the little lady who had been carefully dressed, and couldn't help but curl her lips slightly.Even though Chen'er valued these humerus ministers above the court, their daughters should obey her orders and enter the palace to perform dances?Do this actor thing?Chen'er is too careful, and too lacking in vigor, how can she afford this great dynasty?It would be better to let her listen to politics behind the curtain!
After many years, Empress Dowager An's ambitions have grown even more. Even though she has become the most noble woman in the world, she is still somewhat dissatisfied.After all, even if she is the empress dowager, Emperor Chongwen is still a big mountain in front of her.Recently, his eldest son has become more and more unfilial, isn't it just because he wants to make the daughter of the An family's prostitute his queen?Why not?

Because of the Empress Dowager, there was also some gap between Empress Dowager An and Emperor Chongwen, but even so, there was no sign of it on the surface, and she still had the appearance of a loving mother and filial piety.

At this moment, Empress Dowager An slightly parted her rouged red lips, and said lightly.

"Stay flat."

Hearing the orders of the Empress Dowager, many female family members who were kneeling on the ground got up together.Because Bo Yuqiao was standing next to the old lady, she gave her a hand.Anyway, it's probably just a show, and you need to do a full set, right?
Right now, in the main hall of Ci'an Palace, there are quite a few women who are not young. Although Empress Dowager An wants to beat up the family members of these ministers, it is not good to take action on old women who are too old, after all If something goes wrong, I'm afraid it's just a matter of stealing chickens and losing money.

"Ladies and gentlemen, sit down first!"

Empress Dowager An immediately gave an order, and then the female official Hua Yao took the ladies to the table.Hua Yao is an old man beside Empress Dowager An, so she naturally knows what Empress Dowager An is thinking very well.Although the female official knew that Queen Mother An's behavior was a bit out of line, she didn't dare to raise any doubts. After all, she was just a small palace maid, no matter how shameless she was, if she violated the Queen Mother's intentions, she might not use it. In one hour and three quarters, she will die straight away.

Thinking of this, Hua Yao secretly sighed in her heart, the queen mother is not too young now.But the older I get, the more I value rights.Your Majesty is the eldest son of the Empress Dowager, and now the Empress Dowager wants to seize power from Her Majesty, regardless of the relationship between mother and child.

If not for His Majesty's pure and filial nature, if he has been patient with the Empress Dowager, I am afraid that everyone in the Ci'an Palace would have already put themselves in danger.

At this moment, the wives brought by Huayao are only the old ladies in their own families, and the rest of the mistresses, as long as they are under forty years old, are not seated.

Seeing Hua Yao being so witty, the arc of Empress Dowager An's thin lips became more and more intense, and the bright wrist wearing the gold bracelet inlaid with gemstones and double dragons turned slightly, the gold and milky white intertwined, really dazzling.

At this moment, Bo Yuqiao raised her eyes slightly without showing any signs, and directly took in the satisfied smile on the lips of Empress Dowager An. When she was about to lower her head, she saw the gold bracelet with gemstones and double dragon patterns on Empress Dowager An's wrist.Immediately, Bo Yuqiao's heart trembled violently!But Rao was shocked in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it on her face!

This gold bracelet inlaid with gemstones and double dragon patterns is extremely exquisite in workmanship, and the double dragons on it seem to be alive and imposing.Right now, the distance between Bo Yuqiao and the Queen Mother is not too far, so the patterns on the gold bracelet with double dragon pattern inlaid with gemstones can be clearly seen.Even if the Empress Dowager is the birth mother of the current Emperor Chongwen, logically speaking, she cannot wear jewelry with the pattern of a golden dragon. After all, if she only wears a golden dragon, she is contemptuous of the emperor and disrespectful!
Bo Yuqiao was very flustered at the moment, no matter what, she never thought that Empress Dowager An actually wanted to listen to the government behind the curtain. Wasn't this going to turn Emperor Chongwen into a puppet?So bold, how is it different from the Empress Dowager Cixi?

Now the rest are standing on the main hall, because of the 29 actors brought by Bo Yuqiao, the Bo family is the one with the largest number of people.The queen mother narrowed her eyes slightly, raised her jade finger, pointed at Bo Yuqiao's place, and asked indifferently.

"Is this costume a neon clothes feather dance?"

Hearing the Queen Mother's question, Bo Yuqiao's heart sank, she secretly thought that something was wrong, she took a step forward, with lowered eyebrows and narrowed eyes, looking very disrespectful.

"Returning to the Empress Dowager, the dance presented by the little girl is exactly the dance in neon clothes and feather clothes."

Bo Yuqiao knew in her heart that in such a situation, it is natural to say a lot and make mistakes, so it is better to be stupid, so that the Queen Mother will lose interest in her earlier.

Hearing that the little lady's words were so boring, Empress Dowager An couldn't help but frowned, and then said.

"Are you the little lady of the Bo family? Take off your veil and show it to the Ai family."

Hearing this, even though Bo Yuqiao was worried, she still had a submissive smile on her face, raised her hand slightly, and unbuttoned the pearls behind her ears, revealing an extremely gorgeous face.

The skin is creamy, like the finest Hetian jasper, and the microwaves in the apricot eyes are flowing, revealing an unspeakable charm, even if they are standing in the hall like this, everyone can see the brilliance of this little lady from the Bofu mansion .

Such an appearance is really good. If a man sees it, he may be a little tempted.

Thinking of this, Empress Dowager An's heart twitched slightly, but she had an idea, if this little lady from Bofu was sent to the palace, I'm afraid the Yu family's cheap hooves would not be favored.Now that Chen'er is approaching his age, and the Yu family's sluts are also in their twenties, it's really infuriating to be able to be favored by Jiaofang at such an age!
Because of this thought, Empress Dowager An's eyes on Bo Yuqiao became more and more gentle.Immediately, he lightly raised his hand and spoke directly.

"You are really good, little lady. I will give you this peacock green emerald bead necklace as a reward!"

After speaking, Empress Dowager An took off the peacock green emerald bead chain wrapped around her left wrist, and then Hua Yao, who was waiting on the side, bowed slightly, holding the peacock green emerald bead chain in both hands, and then went straight to the main hall In the middle, put the peacock green jadeite bead chain bestowed by Empress Dowager An in front of Bo Yuqiao.

Seeing the round jadeite beads with no flaws at all and the same size, Bo Yuqiao didn't know what Queen Mother An's plan was.Now that time is urgent, she knelt down on the ground, kowtowed to Empress Dowager An, and said.

"Many thanks to the Empress Dowager for the reward."

The so-called elders don't dare to resign. To Bo Yuqiao, the Empress Dowager An is not only an elder, but also a god who holds the power of life and death. Naturally, Bo Yuqiao dare not refute the empress dowager in front of all the wives. face.After all, if she made the queen mother sullen, the Bo family would probably let her die of illness quietly within three days in order to whitewash the peace.

Although Bo Yuqiao's reaction still seemed a little dull, the respectful and panicked expression on her face slightly pleased Queen Mother An.Since you want this young lady from the Bo family to enter the palace, you don't need this young lady to be too smart, you just need to be obedient, and in this case, she is really an excellent pawn.

After Empress Dowager An finished rewarding Bo Yuqiao, there was a smile in her phoenix eyes, and she glanced around the hall slightly, then frowned slightly, and said with a cold face to Hua Yao who was waiting by the side.

"You servant girl, the older you get, the less thorough you are in handling things. Why are there so many wives standing in the hall now? If you let the adults in the court know, wouldn't you be sorry for your family's misconduct? gone?"

Hearing what Empress Dowager An said, the expressions of the ladies standing in the hall suddenly changed, and then they knelt straight down on the ground.Even the old ladies who were supported by the palace servants before, some of them were not young, stood up tremblingly on the Eight Immortals Chair, and then respectfully knelt down on the polished white marble floor.

At this moment, Bo Yuqiao groaned inwardly, the queen mother was really troubled.Originally, Emperor Chongwen was her eldest son. It is not an exaggeration for Empress Dowager An to say that she has unlimited honor. Why does she have to seize power now?And now that she is playing a powerful role, the intention of beating is really undisguised. If she does this, is it possible that Emperor Chongwen can bear it?
Even though he already knew that the imperial family was a dirty place, after all, it was very likely that Fu Ya was abandoned by his biological mother back then, but now seeing the empress dowager's torment with her own eyes really opened Bo Yuqiao's horizons!
Among the female relatives, the most distinguished one is the prince and concubine.He and the prince and concubine Wu's age are not too young now. After forty years of age, although they are well maintained, the vicissitudes of the eyebrows and eyes can't be hidden at all.The prince and concubine, who was originally very noble, is now being played by Queen Mother An in such a way, and she must be very upset.
