After the new widow, I became a tyrant's tender outer chamber

Chapter 143 Promotion
Concubine Shu pinched the wine cup, thinking ecstatically.

If she wasn't the most outstanding daughter in the Rong family, would she not have to bear the responsibility of entering the palace, would she be able to fulfill her wish in these trivial matters?

She quietly glanced sideways at the new emperor at the top.

Everything started because of him.She had told herself over and over again that she had feelings for him, but such hints seemed very feeble.

She became a concubine when she entered the palace. She thought that she would receive all the favors as expected, but as the days passed, she became more and more aware that the so-called superiority and inferiority were just words from the mouth of the new emperor.

She bowed her head and closed her eyes.

I don't know when the music was stopped. The new emperor never nodded, and no one dared to open his eyes. Concubine Shu could only hear the sound of the cloth rubbing against her ears.

When Ruan Yuyi stopped, she was panting slightly, and she couldn't catch her breath, but was called to come closer by Jiang Huaiyang.He took her slightly parted lips and pulled her into his arms.

The night wind blew his hands cold, and her eyelashes trembled pitifully, silently suffering.

Surrounded by a group of princes and nobles, although she knew that no one saw what they were doing, she still couldn't resist the shame in her heart and softened half of her body.

Due to the inconvenience of walking at night, the next morning, all the horses and chariots and the new emperor got up and drove back to the palace.

After a long journey, she was really tired. Leaning on the couch, she still felt a slight shaking under her body, as if she was still on the carriage.Seeing her like this, Mu Ling didn't dare to pester her for interesting things about her journey as usual.

It's just that Luomeixuan didn't live in peace for a long time, around noon, an eunuch came to pass the decree.

Although she was very tired, she had to get up to meet him.

Seeing her Shi Shiran coming out, the eunuch hurriedly greeted her with a smile on his face, "Ruan Jieyu is so lucky, you are the first one in this palace to receive the title of Jin."

Ruan Yuyi walked down the stage with her eyes downcast, because of Fangqi, she just randomly put a jade hairpin on her hair, and tied her black hair obliquely, her eyebrows and eyes were tired, she looked charming and charming.

Hearing this, she bent her lips, but there was no joy in her eyes.

The status was well earned by her, but it was not what she expected to be promoted to two ranks.After punishing herself to kneel, she vaguely understood that in this kind of golden cage that eats people, if she blindly backs down, it will only make people see clearly.

If she wants to protect herself, she still needs to rely on power.Right now he is new to her, but time has passed, no matter what happens, no one can predict, she can only rely on herself.

It's just that his actions are tantamount to pushing her to the center of the struggle.

After the eunuch read out the decree, it didn't take long for all the palaces to get the news, and people sent congratulatory gifts one after another, but everyone knew the sincerity and hypocrisy.

She was reclining on the couch, absently picking up pastries.

Mu Xiang reported the gift list, suddenly frowned and said, "The four people beside me also sent things, but there is no movement in Chonghua Palace."

She froze in her hand, and then put the jujube paste cake at her fingertips into her mouth, "She is the lord of the first palace, and she is also in charge of the Phoenix seal. It's normal to be lazy and pay attention to these things, so don't worry about it, just put everything away." stop."

Seeing that the young lady didn't care, she thought there would be nothing wrong, so Mu Xiang also backed away.

The door was closed for a short time, then opened again, the palace maid said that the Queen Mother also sent someone to bring things.

Seeing her nodding her head, she informed the people waiting outside to come in.The person who came was not a palace maid, but gold tinsel and jade hairpins, dressed in brocade.She entered the house, looked around leisurely, and then saluted:
"I've met Ruan Jieyu. I heard that my cousin has a concubine with a good color. Today I saw it. It's really like that." She spoke with a soft voice, with a hint of breath, soft and soft, but it sounded weird.

Luckily, she even inquired about when His Majesty usually comes here, hoping to meet him, but unexpectedly he is not here today.

If it wasn't for the scruple not to offend the other party, Mu Ling would have wanted to cover his ears.

That "cousin" was harsh, but Ruan Yuyi smiled, with gentle eyes, and ordered the wood spirit to guide him to a seat and bring him some tea.

"I think the girl is that Miss Bai from the empress dowager's mother's family, please come and go." She almost photographed her identity as the empress dowager's niece in front of Ruan Yuyi, how could she not know.

Bai Zhiqi casually put the wooden box on the table, and regardless of the fact that she was older than Ruan Yuyi, she immediately began to compliment each other affectionately, "My sister has been in the palace for less than half a month, so my younger sister has time to visit, so I borrowed a help The reason why my aunt gave the reward is because of my younger sister."

It's just an excuse to be so busy with important matters in the harem.Ruan Yuyi was lazy and took a sip of tea.The tea is bitter in the mouth, and the sweetness of the pastry in the mouth is melted away.

"Miss Bai is a guest in the palace, so there is no reason to blame her for not being able to entertain her in time?" She said lightly, but Bai Zhiqi's face changed slightly.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows what the Empress Dowager is hiding when she comes to live with Miss Bai in the Palace of Compassion and Peace.When Ruan Yuyi said this, she undoubtedly believed that the new emperor would not accept her.

Bai Zhiqi quickly put on his smiling face again, as if he didn't hear the meaning, and said instead, "I heard that my sister accompanied me to Xiyuan a few days ago."

If it wasn't for her sudden itching, it would be Ruan Jieyu's turn.She took the neatly manicured nails and pressed the corner of the table.

Ruan Yuyi remained silent, just waiting for her to continue talking.

As expected, she couldn't bear it anymore, and said, "It's a pity that I was ill that day. Your Majesty took pity on me and couldn't bear my fatigue. Otherwise, I should have met my sister long ago."

Her rhetoric is full of showing off.She glanced at Ruan Yuyi's expression, trying to find a trace of disappointment in it, but to no avail.

"I heard," Ruan Yuyi said softly, "it's caused by pollen. It should have been discovered when I was young. Miss Bai has been delayed until now? I heard that this allergy can be big or small, and Miss Bai was seriously injured. foundation."

But this is true, the big one can even take people's lives.

Bai Zhiqi's face turned pale, "I'm afraid my sister is coaxing me."

"Don't believe it." She lowered her eyes, and she couldn't help but rubbed her ears slightly.Thinking about the style of coming to the ether hospital, he only said some pleasant things, but he didn't tell her about them.

Mu Ling, who was standing by the side, saw this, and knew that the young lady couldn't bear the way the white girl was speaking, and almost didn't laugh out loud, so she had to cough to cover it up.

After chatting for a few times, Bai Zhiqi suddenly mentioned this reward.

She handed the wooden box to Ruan Yuyi's side, "Aunt told me, sister, you should open it and have a look."

The decoration on the box is exquisitely carved, obviously not extraordinary.But when he opened it, there was nothing inside.

Ruan Yuyi's heart sank slightly.

Bai Zhiqi chuckled in his ear, and said slowly, "My aunt also said, it doesn't matter how beautiful the box looks, but it's just an empty shell, and it's useless, and it's all meritorious service if it doesn't contain some arrogance. "

Ruan Yuyi closed the box, handed it to the wood spirit on the side, and said with a smile, "Whether it is useful or not, since the empress gave it to the concubine, it is up to the concubine to decide. According to the concubine, use it as a hairpin But it’s more appropriate.”

Bai Zhiqi didn't take her words seriously, anyway, with her aunt here, she didn't worry about the future, and it was only a matter of time before Ruan Jieyu took the lead.

Seeing that the words were brought, she didn't stay any longer and got up to leave.
