Harem: Biography of Concubine Qin

Chapter 43 The Emperor Arrives
The fourth elder brother is young after all, how can he outrun these strong women.Just outside the study door, he was hugged by a tall court lady.

Bai Lu hurriedly stepped forward and reprimanded: "You are so bold, why do you force me to stop Master from doing things like this?"

The tall maid was reprimanded like this, she didn't know whether she should let go of the fourth elder brother, so she loosened her grip.

The fourth elder brother took the opportunity to twist away from the range surrounded by her arms, and ran into the yard barefoot.

Tang Nanny stepped forward and smiled at Bai Lupi and said: "The girl has never served my brothers, how would you know! When children become mischievous, how can they not be so restrained? They are no older than concubines and masters. rule."

Speaking of knowing the rules, Nanny Tang glanced at Chen Wenxin, and signaled the tall maid to continue chasing the fourth elder brother.

"Nurse Tang said that I don't know the rules anymore." Chen Wenxin stepped forward and sneered.

She spoke in a declarative tone, not a question.

It meant that no matter how Nanny Tang explained, she believed that Nanny Tang was talking about her anyway.

Nanny Tang had been serving Concubine Tong since she was outside the palace, so she could be regarded as her dowry nanny.

After the death of the first queen, the second elder brother was sent to be raised by Concubine Tong. Since then, she has been responsible for taking care of the elder brothers.

In Chengqian Palace, besides Concubine Tong's nanny, she can be regarded as the most honorable.

Mother Tang educated her brothers to get used to it, and she came from Concubine Tong, so she didn't see a little Chang in her eyes.sidewalk:
"Chen Changzai is young, and there is no nanny around him. He only listens to young girls, and there are some mistakes in the rules. Although brothers are young, it's better not to come here at random in the future."

What a slave!

She didn't say that she was treating the fourth elder brother harshly, so the fourth elder brother called for help loudly.On the contrary, Chen Wenxin didn't understand the rules and entered elder brother's residence as a concubine.

She knew that the nuns in the palace were superior among the slaves, especially the nuns who served the female masters, they were simply half masters' wives!

But even Concubine Tong Gui wanted to praise her for being disciplined in front of the emperor, what kind of mother Tang is, how dare she be so rampant!

Chen Wen was furious, but not because he was humiliated.

What really annoyed her was that Nanny Tang dared to be so unscrupulous in front of her. The fourth elder brother was a young master, and he didn't know what it would be like to be bullied when he was alone on weekdays!

Thinking of the little bun's face that she was reluctant to squeeze hard, and being bullied by this slave for so long, she couldn't bear it anymore.

She reprimanded coldly: "Kneel down!"

Mother Tang thought she didn't understand her status, and explained with a smile: "Chen Changzai, the servant is the dowry mother of the imperial concubine, and the imperial concubine does not ask the servant to kneel."

Chen Wen laughed back angrily, and said: "Yes. Now that the imperial concubine is not in the garden, I will teach you a lesson for her."

She is not afraid of the imperial concubine!
Tang Nanny widened her eyes, and said loudly: "The slave is the concubine's wife, even if Chen Changzai tells the concubine, the concubine will punish the slave, don't worry about it!"

She talked about one imperial concubine, and there was no sense of respect in her words, Chen Wenxin was too lazy to talk nonsense with her.

Bai Lu understood, and reprimanded sharply: "Can't you hear my master's words? Don't kneel down!"

Nanny Tang stiffened her neck, with an expression of a dead pig not afraid of being scalded by boiling water, she said sharply: "This slave only listens to the concubine's master, I don't know what other masters are there!"

These words are to humiliate Chen Wen's low status, and he can't be regarded as a master in front of Concubine Tong.

Chen Wenxin didn't expect her to kneel obediently, but he just took the opportunity to delay her so that the fourth elder brother could start his hands and feet.

"Only the noble concubine is the master, so what is I?"

A large group of people came in from outside the yard, the emperor walked in front, heard Tang Nanny's sharp words, and asked her.

Chen Wenxin looked over, the emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, and stared at her dissatisfied.

She pretended not to see it, and saw the emperor followed by Concubine Hui Rong and others, including Zhang Changzai and Ding Changzai.

When the fourth elder brother shouted, all the palace people by the lake heard it.As soon as the eunuchs and maids of the concubines heard about it, they paid attention to Guanlan Pavilion and Douyuan Bookstore.

It was heard that Chen Wenxin had gone to Taoyuan Bookstore, and there was another commotion inside.The concubines came to watch the excitement tacitly, not wanting to meet the emperor.

The emperor heard the report from the small table, and also heard that the fourth elder brother was making trouble here, so he wanted to come and have a look in person.

I didn't want to see so many people watching the excitement, so I had to bring them all.

The small table followed behind, nodding to Chen Wenxin.

She stepped forward to salute, and the servants in the yard saw the emperor coming, and all the concubines followed...

Such a big battle scared them to their knees in a hurry.

The emperor personally helped Chen Wenxin up, and said: "I asked you to recuperate in the house, and I just left, so you went out for a stroll?"

"I didn't go out for a stroll, I just sat in the waterside pavilion. After sitting for a while, I heard the fourth elder brother's voice calling Chen Erniang. The concubine was worried about the fourth elder brother's accident, so I came to have a look."

Everything she said was true, and the little table reported it in the same way.

The emperor pinched her shoulders, seeing that she was dressed thickly, so he stopped talking.

Only the fourth elder brother cried and ran to the emperor, ignoring etiquette and hugging his waist.

"Huang Ama save my son, save my son!"

Concubine Hui saw the little fourth elder brother's face covered with tears, and she knelt down in distress and asked, "What's wrong with fourth elder brother?"

Wiping his tears while talking.

It was still Li Dequan who had sharp eyes and said, "Your Majesty, look at the feet of the fourth elder brother!"

When everyone heard the words and looked at it, they saw that the fourth elder brother's feet were bare, and dazzling bright red oozes out from under the white little feet...

A young eunuch behind Li De's body quickly ran to pass on to the imperial physician.

The emperor frowned, and asked Li Dequan to carry the fourth elder brother into the main room, and he did not forget to sarcastically say, "Nurse Tang has not answered me yet, in your eyes, do I count as master?"

After finishing speaking, he flicked his sleeves coldly and went straight into the house.

Mother Tang was so frightened that she knelt down and kowtowed, and was dragged into the main room by two young eunuchs.

In the hall, like a private private school, there is a portrait of Confucius hanging.There is an Eight Immortals case under it, and a Taishi chair next to the case.

The emperor took the first chair, and everyone took their seats in order of rank.

Nanny Tang kowtowed at the bottom, pleading guilty: "The emperor is merciful. It was the slave who disciplined the fourth elder brother. Chen Changzai didn't know it and thought the slave was harsh. The slave had no choice but to speak angry words for a while. It was definitely not intended to offend the emperor."

This seems to be an apology, but it actually means that Chen Wenxin doesn't understand the rules, and interferes indiscriminately with Tang Nanny in disciplining the fourth elder brother.

Concubine Rong glanced at Chen Wenxin with a smile, and said: "Chen Changzai is also confused, Tang Nanny next to the imperial concubine will not kneel at will."

Her face was full of fun and she didn't think it was a big deal, she really deserved a beating.

Chen Wen's face was calm, and he said to the emperor: "The fourth elder brother was so anxious that he called his concubine across the lake. How dare the concubine be negligent? Your majesty, please take a look at the boots of the fourth elder brother, and also ask the concubine Rong to look at it. Are the concubines confused? .”

The eunuch picked up the fourth elder brother's boots from the yard, and found another one under the bed in the fourth elder brother's bedroom, and brought them together to show the emperor.

Chen Wenxin reminded: "Your Majesty, the strangeness of these boots can only be found out by comparing them with the feet of the fourth elder brother."

Li Dequan carried the fourth elder brother out of the house, and the blood on the fourth elder brother's feet had been cleaned up.

He said: "Your majesty, don't worry, the fourth elder brother's left foot was punctured by a stone in the yard, it's nothing serious."

He hugged the fourth elder brother to the emperor, and the emperor raised a small right boot to compare with the sole of the fourth elder brother.

Feet are bigger than boots.

The emperor threw the boot on Nanny Tang's head, and said angrily, "This is how you discipline the fourth elder brother?"

Concubine Hui said: "When the elder brother was young, he made the shoes that he wore when he was two or three years old. Why does the fourth elder brother only have such small shoes? Why do these servants work as errands!"

Ding Chang followed up and said: "Chenqie remembers that when the second elder brother was still in Chengqian Palace, the shoes for the first one or two years were also made in advance."

Second Elder Brother moved to Elder Brother's place last year, and Concubine Tong Guifei ordered people to pack up how many clothes, shoes and socks for Second Elder Brother, this is known to everyone.

At that time, the emperor also praised her for treating the second elder brother as her own, but he didn't expect that when the fourth elder brother came, she couldn't even wear the shoes that fit her feet.

Concubine Rong also said: "That's right, the third elder brother is only six years old now, and my concubine also ordered someone to make shoes that he can wear in the future. Fortunately, Concubine De is not here, otherwise I don't know how sad I will be when I see it ..."

Everyone knows that Concubine Rong has always looked down on Concubine De, but now they are afraid that Concubine De will be sad?

It's just using these words to attack Concubine Tong Gui.

Only Zhang Chang muttered for a while, and said two words dryly: "Yes."

Chen Wenxin was secretly shocked when he heard the words of the concubines.

It sounds like it's just a family routine, telling the other elder brothers' things, but in fact every sentence is directed at Concubine Tong.

Concubine Hui said that slaves don't know how to do errands, which means Concubine Tong Guifei has no way to discipline slaves.

Dingchang mentioned the second elder brother, implying that Concubine Tong Guifei treated him differently and intentionally abused the emperor's concubine.

Concubine Rong's mention of Concubine De is pointing out that Concubine Tong Guifei has no children, and of course she is not dedicated to treating her son who is not her own...

Only Zhang Changzai did not offend Concubine Tong Gui as early as Ding Changzai. If she wanted to live a stable life in Chengqian Palace, she could not offend Concubine Tong Gui.

In the battle for the harem, every word may hide a trick.

Terrible.
