Abandoned Concubine's Promotion

Chapter 14 you come and I go
"Su Wanrong is really lucky. She has not been favored in the palace for three years. Not only has she been promoted, but she even stayed in the Palace of Chenghuan last night. Such an honor really makes the sisters envious."

As Su Qingyan expected, as more concubines came to pay their respects, troublemakers also appeared.

It was Concubine Shu of Zhaochun Palace who was speaking. She was sitting in her seat at this moment, looking at Su Qingyan who was facing the entrance of the palace.

Among the beauties in the harem, she is definitely one of the best, not only that, she also gave birth to a princess for Emperor Jing.

Emperor Jing didn't have many heirs. Up to now, there are only one son and two daughters. The eldest son of the emperor is weak and his biological mother died young, so he was raised by the queen mother.

The eldest princess is Concubine Shu's daughter, and now she is raised by Concubine Shu's side. The second princess' birth mother's status is low, so she is raised by Concubine Dong Hui's side.

Regarding Concubine Dong Hui, Su Qingyan didn't have a deep impression. She only heard that she received the emperor's favor and was exempted from her greetings. On ordinary days, she was never seen at all, and only on major festivals could she be seen. she appears.

During the three years in the palace, Su Qingyan only met Concubine Dong Hui a few times. She originally thought that Concubine Dong Hui was in poor health, that's why she was treated like this. The few times she had seen confirmed that Concubine Dong Hui was in good health and there was nothing unusual about it. So why there is such grace, it is not known.

"Concubine Shu." Standing up, Su Qingyan blessed Concubine Shu, and before she could say anything, another voice came from not far in front of her.

"Sister Concubine Shu doesn't know something. The emperor really loves Su Wanrong. Not only did he keep her in the Cheng Huan Palace last night, but he even spared her greetings this morning!"

This time it was Cao Jieyu who spoke, like Concubine Rou, she also entered the palace with Su Qingyan back then, and now lives in Yingyue Pavilion with Zhao Shunyi.

There are quite a few palaces in the harem, but many of them live together with several concubines.

The reason why Su Qingyan only lives in Tao Ranju is because she lives in a remote location, and the concubines are worried about living there, and they will be forgotten by the emperor, so they would rather squeeze together with several people than live in the same place. It is in the center of Taoran, which is remote but has a good view.

This is cheaper for Su Qingyan, living in the same place by herself, and can often enjoy the beautiful scenery.

After hearing Cao Jieyu finished speaking, Su Qingyan shifted her gaze to her. She first blessed Cao Jieyu, and then she spoke with a smile.

"The emperor forbade my sister from paying her respects. My sister only found out when she came to pay her respects to the empress. Sister Cao came later than my younger sister. I didn't expect the news to be so well-informed."

Su Qingyan was very fortunate that her memory was very good. When she came to pay her respects to the queen, she probably knew who came and who was not.

Whether it was Concubine Shu or Cao Jieyu, they all had higher status than herself. Su Qingyan knew that she couldn't afford to offend her, but they all brought trouble to her. Even clay figurines had three parts earthy nature.

As soon as Su Qingyan finished speaking, Cao Jieyu's face suddenly changed. She really didn't come early, so she missed the time when the empress spoke to Su Qingyan, and her news was indeed not in Qifeng Palace owned.

Concubine Shu raised her eyebrows, but didn't speak again. Now that the development of the matter has exceeded expectations, she just needs to watch the excitement.

"I... I also heard from other sisters." When she said this, Cao Jieyu glanced anxiously at the queen above her. Withdrawing his gaze, he explained a sentence nana.

Seeing that Cao Jieyu's arrogance had completely dissipated, Su Qingyan withdrew her gaze and returned to her original calm appearance.

The queen's eyes lingered on Cao Jieyu for a while, and then looked at Su Qingyan. Although there was still a gentle smile on her face, a light flashed in her eyes very quickly.

"Speaking of which, it seems that I haven't seen Qi Guifei come to pay her respects recently, is she not feeling well?" Concubine Shen Guifei watched a good show, and now seeing the quietness in the hall, she asked with a smile.

Qi Guifei lived in the Ningxiang Pavilion, and she belonged to the beautiful women who entered the palace with Su Qingyan. When she first entered the palace, she was a sixth-rank beauty, and now she has been promoted to a noble concubine.

After entering the palace for three years, although Concubine Qi Gui was not particularly favored, she would at least be turned over once or twice a month.

"A few days ago, Concubine Qi Gui was in poor health, so I forgave her greetings. Now that Concubine Shen has mentioned it, it is time to send someone to ask how it is. Yingluo, you go and invite an imperial physician to Ningxiang Pavilion Go see Qi Guifei."

After hearing Concubine Shen's words, the Empress looked around the palace, and then gave instructions to Yingluo, her close maid.

"Yes." In response, Yingluo backed away, taking advantage of the waiting time, Empress Xiao set her eyes on Concubine Shen Gui.

"Speaking of which, it will be Concubine Shen Guifei's birthday in one month, and I don't know what gift the emperor will prepare for my younger sister's birthday this year?"

Concubine Shen dotes on the Sixth Palace, this is something that all the concubines know, when Emperor Jing was still the third prince, Concubine Shen was already by Emperor Jing's side.

After Emperor Jing ascended the throne, Shen Lanzhu was made a concubine of virtue, and later promoted to a concubine.

Every year on Concubine Shen's birthday, the emperor would reward her with some precious or rare things as gifts, and this year must be no exception.

"No matter what gift the emperor prepares for the concubine, the concubine will be very happy. When the concubine's birthday arrives, a few tables will be set up in the Yichun Palace. At that time, the empress will honor her face and have a few drinks with the concubine."

Concubine Shen Gui looked towards the queen, and said with a smile on her face, her birthday was always the one that showed her face the most every year, even if it was the queen's birthday, it couldn't compare to hers.

"It's natural, it's just that I'm weak, I'm afraid I'll disappoint Concubine Shen Gui."

After hearing Concubine Shen's words, the Empress smiled and nodded, just like her usual appearance, Su Qingyan watched the back and forth between the Empress and Concubine Shen, and she understood that it was impossible for these two women to be peaceful.

Empress Xiao's health is not good, and she has no heirs. If the power of her mother's family in the previous dynasty was not strong enough, she would have been robbed of her position by Concubine Shen. It became Xiao Yuning.

So for so many years, Empress Xiao and Concubine Shen have only made peace on the surface, and only they know what they think in their hearts.

After talking about Concubine Shen's birthday, the queen said something else casually, until Yingluo came back with the imperial physician, then she turned her attention to Yingluo and the imperial physician, "How is Concubine Qi's health?"

Hearing the queen's question, the imperial doctor hurriedly stepped forward, greeted the queen, and then replied to the queen's question, "I want to report to the queen, Concubine Qi Gui is happy, and it has been almost two months now."

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the concubines in the Jiaotai Palace immediately changed, and no one noticed the chill that flashed in Empress Xiao's eyes at that moment...
