court ladies begging for joy

Chapter 11

In the entire harem of the Longyao Dynasty of Jin’an Kingdom, at present, except for the Empress Bo, the imperial concubines are vacant by convention. The imperial concubine has a Qi concubine, and the concubine has a Shun concubine Zhe Zhe. This is the subsidiary country of ancient Russia. The one who came with the relatives was the concubine Su Yan.

Among them, Concubine Qi and Concubine Serious, both of them were Long Yao's side concubines who were in hiding when he was the crown prince.Concubine Qi was still favored. After Long Yao proclaimed himself emperor, he immediately made her a noble concubine.

Among the six concubines below the rank of concubine, there was only one concubine, Li, when Huang Peiying and other beautiful women did not enter the palace.Hearing this title, one can guess that this concubine has a special story.

According to the description in the novel, this Yu concubine Li's appearance is extremely ordinary.Don't talk about the palace, just say that on the streets of Jin'an Kingdom, any young woman who is casually dragged is more attractive than her.She was able to enter the Prince's Mansion because of her father's blessing as Prince Longyao's calligraphy and painting master.

Even so, after she entered the mansion, she was basically unfavored.It wasn't until later, when the prince was assassinated, that she sacrificed herself to save the prince, and suffered from infertility, that the prince promoted her to be the concubine of the prince.After becoming emperor, she was named Yu concubine.

After Huang Peiying and the others entered the palace, Huang Peiying was named a beauty, and later she was named a concubine because of her pregnancy. Liu Fanghan, the concubine who angrily reprimanded Wen Xiaowan, had a very good relationship with Huang Peiying before entering the palace.

For a period of time after entering the palace, the relationship between the two was inseparable, and they even joined hands to deal with other concubines.

After Huang Peiying lost her child in an accidental miscarriage, their relationship gradually cooled down.The most direct reason is that on the third day after Huang Peiying lost her son, Liu Fanghan was directly promoted from the position of beauty to the position of concubine.

Even if some people say that the two have nothing to do with each other, how can Huang Peiying not respond to the person involved?What's more, in the two days before Huang Peiying's accident, she only had contact with Liu Fanghan and ate a few cakes from her.

Afterwards, the emperor also asked the imperial doctor to look at those pastries, and they all said there was no problem, but he still couldn't escape the suspicion.

Even Liu Fanghan, who had just been promoted to the concubine, came to Huang Peiying's place to comfort her with a lot of supplements. Even Xiaoyu, the stupidest court lady next to Huang Peiying, could see that Liu Fanghan had the meaning of crying cats and mice and pretending to be merciful.

Can Huang Peiying, who has a clear mind, still not feel it?It's just that this dumb man has nothing to eat, and he has no place to complain, so he can only knock out his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.

Wen Xiaowan was blocked by concubine Liu Fanghan today, and the road to her enemy was narrow.

If she knew that the two court ladies who deliberately satirized and humiliated her were people next to Concubine Liu Fanghan, she would have pretended not to hear her, turned her head and left, regardless of whether it was on the left, right or front.

It's not that Wen Xiaowan was afraid of them, but that when she was fledgling, she still had to endure what she had to endure—for example, this time, you didn't even know who they were, so you bit on them and ended up with a hard bite. stones come.

"When you see Concubine Xian, you are not polite, you are so courageous,"

It is said that dogs rely on power, and so do people.After the concubine Liu Fanghan arrived, Hongjuan's momentum suddenly rose, and her small voice was loud, like a crowing hen.

Needless to say, Hongjuan, Wen Xiaowan also had to perform palace rituals for Concubine Xian in a proper manner, but she was not an ordinary little maid, she could be regarded as the head of the palace, and she was a high-ranking court lady. Just kneel down and do a half salute.

"My maidservant Wan'er sees Concubine Xian," Wen Xiaowan pretended not to see the proud faces of Hongjuan and the palace maid in yellow, slightly lowered her eyes, and leaned down, "I haven't seen Concubine Xian for a long time. Missing you."

Wen Xiaowan's words were kind and kind, and her half-courteous behavior was considered submissive and euphemistic.Wen Xiaowan hadn't thought about turning hostility into wealth or anything, but during the period of hard work and courage, she still had to bear in mind the knife in her heart, and she still had to remember it all the time.

When Wen Xiaowan went down after saluting, Concubine Xian raised her lips and snorted coldly, and winked at Hongjuan.

Hongjuan nodded darkly, and when Wen Xiaowan saluted politely, she went around behind Wen Xiaowan, and when Wen Xiaowan was defenseless, she raised her foot and kicked her.

If this kick hits, it must hit Wen Xiaowan's red heart - the middle of her buttocks.If Wen Xiaowan doesn't throw a dog and eat shit, it's basically like a wild goose falling on the sand.

Fortunately, Wen Xiaowan was not so stupid as to be so simple as to think that she would be greeted with a smile if she made a proper salute to concubine Liu Fanghan.

As a professional criminal who picks doors and presses locks, Wen Xiaowan always pays special attention to the area of ​​her back.

When she felt someone standing behind her, she lifted her spirits, and when Hongjuan kicked her, she took advantage of the momentum and rushed forward, as if she wanted to say something private to concubine Liu Yunhan.

When Wen Xiaowan dodged like this, there was half a step behind her.Hongjuan stood half a step away from her original position and lifted her feet, so a scene of joy appeared.

It's a word of magic, and Wen Xiaowan felt amazing when she read the post on the Internet. When this posture was actually performed in front of her, she almost cheered in surprise.

With that scream of 'ah', because of Wen Xiaowan's dodging of Hongjuan's foot, her whole body lost weight and leaned forward. With the sound of 'crack', the little maid Hongjuan has never The ligaments of the legs that had been stretched were finally completely stretched at this moment.

In this scene, it wasn't just Wen Xiaowan who stared wide-eyed, the maids in yellow shirts all screamed out, and even concubine Liu Yunhan almost lost her composure, and opened her mouth slightly.

The little maid Hongjuan grinned her teeth in pain and kept yelling, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's her, she deliberately framed the slaves, Your Majesty, she...she disrespected you..."

Wen Xiaowan had never seen such a slapstick master before, she couldn't laugh even if she wanted to, and before she could explain, the little palace lady in yellow reacted faster than her, and slapped her.

Wen Xiaowan was able to dodge Hongjuan's kick, but she couldn't dodge that slap that was so close to her. While she was in a daze, her fingertips had already slid across her white cheek.

Wen Xiaowan closed her eyes subconsciously, and there was a slight scratch on her cheek, but it didn't have the burning pain she imagined.

Wen Xiaowan didn't think that the lady in yellow was showing mercy, but what happened, the person who was slapped by her hadn't screamed out yet, but the lady in yellow who hit her screamed out in pain.

Not far from the corner, an insignificant pebble landed steadily.The strength on the stone has not been completely removed, and it is spinning around in the corner.

Naturally, these women would not notice it. Just when none of them understood what was going on, and the screams of the palace maids in yellow hadn't ended yet, behind them, at the corner not far away, a deep and slight voice sounded. With a hoarse reprimand.

"The Department of Punishment is the most important place, who dares to make noise outside?"

Wen Xiaowan caressed her little heart, and the villain in her heart was sobbing silently. She had never been so excited after hearing someone's voice.

Nie Jinyan's reputation is not only in full swing with the concubine Huang Peiying, but also with concubine Liu Fanghan.

As for Hongjuan and another palace lady in yellow who had just beaten Wen Xiaowan, none of them put on a show and cried there.The other hurriedly helped her up, and the two shrank behind concubine Liu Fanghan, shaking their clothes and trembling.

Wen Xiaowan finally saw how a normal person like her should behave when she saw Nie Jinyan.

She had a convulsion the other night, no wonder Nie Jinyan didn't slap her to death on the spot, it turned out that she had been lonely for too long and really needed some entertainment.

After seeing too many people who tremble at him, I also want to see other kinds... Wen Xiaowan felt very sad.

Also, how could Nie Jinyan appear so timely?He must have admired it for a while...

What made Wen Xiaowan want to bump into the wall the most was that she couldn't believe that the courtyard wall path where she had wandered for a long time turned out to be the Department of Punishment.

That place is too quiet. Why is there no sound from the Ministry of Justice in the palace? Like other temples, there is a sense of simplicity in the quietness. Is this to punish people, or to bring people to practice together?
Nie Jinyan was still the same attire that Wen Xiaowan wore when she first saw him, a brocade suit with white embroidered light blue carps, and the cuffs and neckline were outlined with silver-white embroidery.

When the sun is sufficient, it moves with his body, like waves and scales, reflecting the carp embroidered on his body, as if swimming in a pool, three-dimensional and vivid, as if alive.

From the other side of the road, he walked slowly with his hands behind his back - Wen Xiaowan had never seen it before, he was like other eunuchs carrying such things as a duster and a fly slinger.The two times he appeared, both were empty-handed, straightened his back, swayed his thin body, walked slowly with a blank expression on his face.

The concubine Liu Fanghan did not expect that she would meet Nie Jinyan here.

If it wasn't for Nie Jinyan's low reprimand, concubine Xian who wanted to embarrass Wen Xiaowan, she would have almost forgotten that the place just across the wall was the Palace of the King of Hades.

For this novel, Wen Xiaowan is a latecomer, she has changed from a reader to a character in it, and Concubine Xian is a person living in this novel.

Nie Jinyan was unfamiliar to Wen Xiaowan, but it was profitable. As for concubines like concubine Liu Fanghan, they had seen with their own eyes how Nie Jinyan was mercilessly executed a year ago. Concubine Liu's.

——If the emperor really issued an imperial edict, they wouldn't be afraid, they relied on the emperor's favor or something.

But that time was not an imperial decree from the emperor, but because Concubine Liu, who had just been promoted to the concubine, relied on her new imperial favor to make her maid beat a little maid who was cleaning the courtyard for no reason. The supervisor saw that when the two were brought back to the Punishment Division, Concubine Liu felt that she had been slapped in the face, so she refused to listen to people's dissuasion and insisted on going to the Punishment Division. In the end, Nie Jinyan, who was in charge of the Punishment Division, beat her indiscriminately. died.

When Jin'an Emperor Longyao found out, when he went to the Punishment Department to beg for someone, he only saw a bloody corpse.

Nie Jinyan knelt down respectfully, and stated to Long Yao: "I Jin'an Kingdom has issued an order since the Taizu Emperor, and the harem has laws in the Punishment Department. Regardless of the rank of the harem concubines, they can be convicted. Those who are not guilty If you don’t want to enter, trespassers will be executed with sticks. On the gate of the Punishment Department, there is an inscription written by the Emperor Taizu. If Concubine Liu is not dealt with according to the law today, why are the concubines in the harem afraid? From then on, how can the harem be stabilized? rule?"

Jin'an Emperor Long Yao was so angry that his mouth was crooked, and he had nothing to do with Nie Jinyan.There is really nothing wrong with this matter, and with the empress dowager, empress, and even Concubine Su and Concubine Yu who know the rules the most, they are all on the sidelines, so the matter is let go.

After what happened to Concubine Liu, Nie Jinyan's image in the hearts of the concubines, maids, and eunuchs in the palace was almost like an evil ghost—anyone who saw Nie Jinyan had a feeling of seeing a ghost.

Liu Fanghan, the concubine who wanted to find Wen Xiaowan's bad luck, immediately swallowed a fly and bumped into the bad luck. She bit the bullet, stepped forward, and said with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Nie, I have been confused by this servant." , I forgot that this is the outer wall of the Punishment Department, please forgive me, Mr. Nie."

Liu Fanghan is the master who is a third-rank concubine. No matter how Nie Jinyan is the head of the imperial court, he is also a slave in the palace, but he can bully a master like this. Wen Xiaowan almost applauds.

——Looking at other people's messes, and looking at myself, I managed to escape the Pingsha Luoyan, and let others slap me.

Wen Xiaowan knew very well that the concubine Liu Fanghan was more scheming and forbearing than the humble and beautiful woman who made things difficult for Jin Lan before.

She took the initiative to embarrass herself this time, maybe it was just a harbinger of the storm - the draft is coming, if the concubine Huang Peiying doesn't favor her anymore, they would have been wiped out in the first place.

"Oh, really?" Nie Jinyan didn't buy Concubine Xian's smile, he still kept a serious face and asked, "Then can I ask, did this servant do anything wrong? Concubine Xian and the two maids making noise here?"

Is this a hero saving the beauty?Stop thinking about it, go to sleep - Wen Xiaowan instinctively felt that Nie Jinyan came to see his jokes, otherwise it wouldn't be such a coincidence.

The slaves in my own palace can be said to be taught by the master, but even if a high-ranking palace lady like Wan'er is caught by a concubine master like Xian concubine by mistake, she has to be sent to Wan'er His master said that it was somewhat illegal for her to deal with it.

Concubine Xian will not understand this truth.She was relying on Nie Jinyan's mentality that although she would not favor her, she would never favor Wan'er, and she was not afraid. She was also a concubine, so she was more important than a court lady.

Concubine Xian smiled, "I didn't make any major mistakes at all..." Then she recounted what happened just now.

Concubine Xian's speech was very slow, and she didn't look like she was forcing Wan'er just now.

Wen Xiaowan stared dumbfounded at the change of expression on the actor's face, feeling deeply that the actress really came out of the palace.

"This slave uses mice to secretly scold me for a nest of snakes, rats and snakes. It really disrespects me."

After Concubine Xian finished speaking, Wen Xiaowan hadn't figured out how to defend herself, she just heard Nie Jinyan ask: "Then...Concubine Xian also thinks that mice are bad?"

The concubine Xian didn't think too much about it, and immediately said: "Of course, that kind of ugly thing has a low life and a short life, and it feels dirty when you mention it. I wish they would all die."

Nie Jinyan looked over with a cold look, "Ms. Xian, you can just say it in front of your subordinates. If it gets out, you will turn around."

In Nie Jinyan's last sentence, he paused every word, cadenced, his voice fell, and his cold eyes were withdrawn.

Concubine Xian felt even colder than when she was stared at just now.

If Wen Xiaowan called her 'mouse' just now, to secretly scold her for being vicious, then she cursed the mouse 'death' at this time, it would be as if...

In this palace, everyone doesn't know that the Empress Dowager is a rat.Who in this palace doesn't know that in less than ten days, it will be the sixtieth birthday of the Empress Dowager.

At this time, if the words of 'rats are dead' are passed on to the empress dowager by someone with a heart... Concubine Xian felt a chill on her neck.
