The rebirth of the first daughter of the poisonous concubine

Chapter 40

The empress has already sat on the throne, and the other concubines are sitting on the left and right sides, but the first seat on the right is vacant.Thinking about it, it was reserved for Concubine Li Gui.

Everyone knelt down in unison, greeted the empress, and said in unison: "See the empress."

The emperor wears a phoenix crown full of pearls, and two golden phoenixes hanging from both ends. She is dressed in a dark red dress of a hundred birds and a phoenix, which is even more dignified and elegant. She raised her hand with a smile on her face: " Get up, all of you."

"Thank you Queen Empress."

Everyone stood up one after another, only then did they hear the eunuch outside the door shouting in a shrill voice: "The imperial concubine is here."

Su Ruiran couldn't help but turned her head and looked out the door, and sure enough, she saw Concubine Li Gui walked in unhurriedly surrounded by a crowd of palace people.Her skin was as smooth and her face was like peach blossoms, her hair was tied high on the top of her head into a complicated bun, and a hairpin inlaid with gold and gemstones was stuck on it.Originally, I heard that Concubine Li Gui was as beautiful as a city, but with such decorations, she looked even more dazzling.

Concubine Li Gui walked up to the empress, and gave a simple salute in a somewhat perfunctory manner: "The concubine has seen the empress."

The queen nodded, and she sat down by herself.

Only then did everyone bow to her again: "See the imperial concubine."

Concubine Li Gui fiddled with the bracelet in her hand, without raising her head: "Get up."

Only then did everyone get up, and suddenly heard Concubine Li Gui ask: "Which one is the eldest lady of Prime Minister Su's family?"

Su Ruiran hurriedly knelt down: "My daughter has seen the imperial concubine."

Concubine Li Gui sized her up: "Since you are Prime Minister Su's daughter, you must also be able to write well. If you have some free time, come over and copy the scriptures for me."

"It is a blessing for a courtier to be able to do things for your empress." Even though she replied like this, she was thinking in her heart, since she and Concubine Li Gui had never met before, why did she suddenly ask herself to help transcribe scriptures?

After the pilgrimage was over, Su Ruiran followed Concubine Li out of the queen's yurt, and saw that everyone was looking at her.

Indeed, she was summoned by Concubine Li Gui on the first day she came, which inevitably made others guess what relationship she had with Concubine Li Gui.

The eunuch lifted the curtain of the palace sedan chair, and Concubine Li Gui sat in with the help of the maid.

"Get up the sedan chair." The leading eunuch gave an order, and the sedan chair was lifted up.

Su Ruiran and Yin He could only follow behind her sedan chair like other court ladies and eunuchs.

At first he walked slowly, but then the sedan chair suddenly went faster and faster. Yin He supported Su Ruiran and chased after him. He was sweating profusely and embarrassed all the way.

The sedan chair finally stopped at the door of Concubine Li Gui's yurt. The eunuch lifted the curtain and helped Concubine Li Gui enter.

Concubine Li Gui stopped in the middle of her walk, turned her head to look at Su Ruiran, and seemed to turn a blind eye, and was helped in by the eunuch again.

At this time, a maid came to urge Su Ruiran to go in quickly.

Su Ruiran approached the yurt, and saw Concubine Li Gui leaning on the couch, her head resting on her hands, her eyes closed, and there were two maids beside her.One was fanning her carefully, while the other respectfully waited for orders.She pointed to the desk on the side: "There is a table over there, you can copy over there. Lanxi, bring her the scriptures to be copied."

"Yes, empress." Lan Xi went to the back room, and quickly brought a thick stack of scriptures, and put them on the table, "That's all, Miss Su, hurry up and copy, empress is still waiting to read."

Su Ruiran looked at the thick stack of scriptures and frowned, how long would it take to copy so many.She originally thought that even if she copied the scriptures, it would only be one or two volumes, and the deep meaning of the imperial concubine and empress might not be in this.But now it made her a little confused, what is the meaning of this imperial concubine?But no matter what it means, this scripture must always be copied.

"Yin He, grind your ink."

As soon as she gave the order, Lan Xi who was standing by the side suddenly said with a smile: "Your Majesty said, this scripture needs to be copied by Ms. Su herself, so that she can show her sincerity and show her respect for Buddha."

I feel that the other party seems to be deliberately making things difficult, but I don't know why.Before she figured out the matter, Su Ruiran could only hold back and grind the ink on her own.

After the ink was finished, she spread the rice paper on the table and was about to sit down.

Lan Xi suddenly came over and snatched her stool, and said with a smile: "Miss Su, you can't sit while transcribing Buddhist scriptures, otherwise you will be disrespectful to the Buddha."

Yin He frowned, feeling a bit displeased, didn't this clearly mean he was bullying Miss?But because of the high authority in the other party's position, and seeing that the young lady is still calm, she can only follow and bear it for a while.

Su Ruiran turned her head to look at Concubine Li Gui. She was still leaning on the couch without raising her head. She just looked over through a layer of gauze curtains, and felt that Concubine Li Gui's face was blurred, making it more and more difficult to guess.She naturally heard every word of Lan Xi's words, but she remained calm and yawned lazily: "I'll lie down for a while when I'm tired, and you can copy it first. After copying, call Ben Gong."

Li Guifei's attitude already shows that Lanxi's behavior is also her intention.

Knowing this, Su Ruiran said "yes" and started to copy.Although I don't know why she makes things difficult for her, but no matter what she does, given her current situation, she can only endure it first.

After transcribing for three full hours, seeing that the sky was getting dark, she managed to finish copying the scriptures in her hands. Her back was sore and her arms were so sore that she couldn't lift them up.She reorganized and checked the scriptures that had been transcribed, and was a little relieved to make sure that there were no mistakes or omissions in the transcription.

Holding the scriptures in her hands, she went over and presented them to Concubine Li Gui respectfully: "Your Majesty, my servant has already finished transcribing."

Concubine Li Gui said "Yes", and Lan Xi immediately took the scripture from her hand and handed it over. Concubine Li only flipped through the last few pages before closing it, looking at Su Ruiran: "Ms. The scriptures are written crookedly? Are you going to be so perfunctory?"

Su Ruiran groaned secretly. After copying for three hours in a row, her hands were already sore. It was inevitable that she would not be able to hold the pen steady at the end of the copy, and the words she wrote were not as neat as they were at the beginning.But since the other party deliberately made it difficult for him, it was useless for him to distinguish, so he could only smash his teeth and swallow the mistake in his stomach: "I know my mistake, I am new here, if there is anything wrong, please let me know." Empress teach."

She thought that Concubine Li Gui had made things difficult for her for so long, so she should let herself understand why.

Concubine Li supported the precious stone hairpin on her bun: "Isn't this palace just teaching you? Could it be that you feel that this palace is deliberately embarrassing you?"

She hurriedly said: "My daughter dare not."

Concubine Li Gui handed over the copied scriptures: "Then copy it again."

Su Ruiran frowned slightly when she heard the words, no matter how good her temper was, she couldn't help being angry after being embarrassed so many times.But Concubine Li Gui was in the name of teaching her, if she turned against her in public, it would be disobedient and rude to spread the word.What's more, as Concubine Li, if she really had any guilt, it would be easy for her to punish herself.

Then there is only patience, no matter how difficult the other party is, he can only endure this breath first.

She gritted her teeth, then respectfully accepted the Buddhist scriptures handed over by Concubine Li Gui, and was about to transcribe it again.

But at this time, Lan Xi suddenly heard Lan Xi leaning over and saying to Concubine Li: "Madam, Miss is coming over tonight for dinner, and she is already waiting outside."

Concubine Li Gui said softly "Really?", then stretched out her hand, Lan Xi immediately held her hand and helped her to sit up: "Is dinner ready?"

"Go back to your mother, it was ready early in the morning."

Concubine Li Gui's eyes fell on Su Ruiran again: "So let's stop here today, you take it back and copy it, and send it back tomorrow after copying it."

"Yes."

Yin He hurriedly helped Su Ruiran to the table, packed her things for her, and helped her to leave.

The two master and servant walked to the door, and an eunuch immediately opened the curtain for her, and the two went out, only to see Guan Mushuang guarding outside with his servant.

Guan Mushuang saw Su Ruiran, and saw a large stack of scriptures in Yin He's hands, first smiled: "So it was Sister Su, who was I at the time, I heard that my sister was copying scriptures at the empress's place, so it seems that I have gained a lot what."

I really didn't expect to meet Guan Mushuang here. Thinking of the "Miss" that Lanxi said just now, he could have dinner with the imperial concubine, it seems that Guan Mushuang's relationship with the imperial concubine is not the same.No wonder Concubine Li Gui embarrassed herself so much, it must be because of Guan Mushuang.

Su Ruiran thought of this, but smiled slightly on her face, with a gentle attitude: "So it's Sister Guan. Since Sister Guan wants to go in to see your mother, I won't bother you." After she finished speaking, she helped Guan Mushuang and brought her With Yin He left.

Guan Mushuang happily called out "Aunt" from behind, as if she wanted to let her hear.

Su Ruiran remained silent and only smiled slightly.

It seems that I offended not only Guan Mushuang this time, but also the most favored concubine in front of the emperor, but I didn't expect that people from Guan Mushuang's mother's family were so powerful.

Yin He rubbed her wrist all the way, feeling distressed: "Miss, your hands are swollen."

She was so worried now, she didn't care about the pain in her wrist, so she just withdrew her hand from Yin He's hand and rubbed it herself: "It's okay, just go back and get an ice compress and it will be fine."

Yin He suddenly thought of something: "Just now there were so many people that it was inconvenient for the servants to speak. In fact, the fact that Concubine Li Gui is making things difficult for Miss today is not only because of the official lady. The servants have actually heard before that the second lady secretly curry favor with her in order to consolidate her position in the mansion. There are quite a few people, and the one who gave the most gifts is Concubine Li Gui in the palace."

In other words, is Yan Shi responsible for today's incident? Thinking of this, she felt even more depressed. She never thought that the two people who were hostile to her were actually leaning against the same big tree.And with her status, how can she be compared with the imperial concubine?Even if her father saw her, he would salute and kowtow, let alone himself.

Originally thought that Yan Ran's feet could be grounded, and she would be able to hold her head up a little bit in the mansion, and no one would dare to bully her anymore, but now it seems that things are not as optimistic as imagined.

Then Yan Ran grounded her feet, Li Guifei would not sit idly by.

Thinking of this made her even more confused.Another sleepless night.In the early morning of the second day, I even heard news from outside that Concubine Li Gui personally ordered Yan Ran to come over.

When she heard the news, she was drinking tea from a teacup, silently put the teacup aside, and lost her mind for a moment.Everything that I have done before has come to naught so easily.

I made Yan's mother and daughter suffer a lot in the past, and they must have hated me in their hearts. After this time, they will definitely not let me go easily.

She raised her head and looked out of the window, where the trembling flower branches were swaying in the chaotic wind, with unknown flowers blooming.The sky will rain, even if it survives the strong wind, it will be devastated by the heavy rain again, and finally wither and rot, submerged in the soil, and turned into dust.But she was unwilling to wither here, and she had no place to take refuge, so she could only rely on herself to firmly grasp the flower branch.
