Queen's scheming

Chapter 25

"Your Majesty, the Emperor stayed at Xuehua Pavilion yesterday." Yu Lian carefully looked at Shen Qing Yidao.To say that this Shen Ronghua is really scheming, he can even use his tricks to win the favor of the emperor when praying in the Buddhist hall.

Shen Qingyi just got up in the morning to do her makeup, and the hand holding the eight-treasure glazed butterfly hairpin paused slightly, and then she inserted the hairpin firmly and obliquely on the Chaoyunjin incense bun, and asked faintly, "Really?"

Yu Lian nodded lightly, the emperor has not stayed in Ningsu Palace for more than ten days, this is something Shen Qingyi has never experienced since entering the palace.It is said that men like the new and dislike the old. It seems that this self-proclaimed affectionate emperor can't escape this cliché.I really don't understand what the emperor thinks, his mother's beauty is no better than that ice beauty Concubine Xue Gui and that little white rabbit Shen Ronghua.

"Then Shen Ronghua has to come to Ningsu Palace today to pay my respects to this Palace." Shen Qingyi said with a smile, looking at herself in the carved mirror.

Seeing that Shen Qingyi was not angry, Yu Lian was relieved, and said disdainfully, "Your Majesty, you don't know how 'delicate' Shen Ronghua is. Now the whole palace is spreading rumors that Shen Ronghua is praying for the safe delivery of Concubine Min When he fainted, the emperor happened to pass by, took pity on the fragrance and sent him back to Xuehua Pavilion."

Instead of being angry, Shen Qingyi smiled, and picked up a bright red peony flower and pasted it on her forehead, "The emperor happened to pass by, Shen Ronghua happened to pass out, and happened to stay in Xuehua Pavilion, everything is a coincidence, my palace Unexpectedly, this second younger sister of mine calculates the time so well."

"Ma'am, that Shen Ronghua is clearly a vixen, and he used such an unappealable method to seek favor." Yu Lian said with peachy eyes, staring in the direction of Xuehua Pavilion.

Shen Qingyi glanced at Yu Lian, she had a slender figure, a pair of peach blossom eyes rippling with brilliance like spring water, and a little red lips on her snow-white face, which was very gratifying.

"I see that Shen Ronghua can't compare to our Yu Lian's coquettishness. He can't be regarded as a foxy girl, at most, he is just a weak little white rabbit." Shen Qingyi smiled and said to Yu Lian.

"This kind of woman is the most detestable, she is obviously a wicked vixen, she insists on pretending to be a soft white rabbit, and slaves look down on her the most, since she dares to plot against others like a snake, don't pretend to be Weak and harmless." Yu Lian pouted and mocked.

Yu He tidied up the Pisces pendant on the skirt for Shen Qingyi, smoothed the magenta lace on the jade pendant carefully, and said angrily, "If all the women in this palace think like you, they probably would have gone to Yan'an sooner or later. The prince has reported for duty, so we don't have to spend so much time on defense."

Yu Lian didn't answer Yu He's words, seeing that Shen Qingyi had already tidied things up, she hurriedly stepped forward to support her, and asked tentatively, "Mother, what happened to Yu Lan yesterday?" Yu Lian really liked Yu Lan's solid eyes from the bottom of her heart. Girl, if she was outside the palace, according to Yu Lian's temper, she would have dealt with Shen Ronghua and Yu Mei long ago.But now in the palace, she could only bear it, and it made her go crazy.

Shen Qingyi was so calm, and said softly, "Don't worry, I will collect some interest for Yulan in a while, she has plotted against one of Bengong's people, and Bengong wants her to pay the whole Xuehua Pavilion together."

It was a routine greeting, and because of Shen Qingwan's appearance, the atmosphere became warmer.

The noble concubine Xue sat opposite the noble concubine Duanjing, and glanced at Shen Qingwan who was diagonally opposite. The narrow-sleeved double-breasted outer dress with lake blue trim and light silver outlines the apricot blossoms all over the place, and the floor-length skirt of the same color silk. On the simple lily bun, a white magnolia hairpin covered with silver and dots of emerald green was inserted right into the jet-black bun.

"Isn't Shen Ronghua praying for Concubine Min? Prayers are supposed to fast and bathe, and have no desires. Shen Ronghua, as the second lady of Feng Guogong's mansion, why doesn't she even know these things? The blessing of blessings is exposed?" Xue Gui The concubine gave Shen Qingwan a sneering look, and continued, "That's right, the daughter of the stepmother, to put it bluntly, is nothing more than a concubine. How can I understand such principles, but my concubine is a bit too demanding."

Tang Aoxue really looked down on Shen Qingwan's behavior, in the Buddhist hall, doing such nasty things of competing for favor, she didn't want the decency of a lady.

Shen Qingwan wanted to refute, but saw that the other concubines in the main hall also looked at her with disdain, obviously dissatisfied with her behavior of competing for favor yesterday, but because she was the queen's younger sister, she dared not speak out.

Shen Qingwan restrained the stern look that was about to show, stood up softly and weakly, blessed Tang Aoxue, and humbly said, "What your concubine sister taught is that concubines will definitely pay attention in the future. It's just that the emperor ordered yesterday, saying The concubine is not feeling well, and Concubine Min's fetal image has stabilized, so there is no need for concubines to go to the Buddhist hall to pray for blessings."

"You!" Tang Aoxue pointed at Shen Qingwan, annoyed by his pretentious gesture.

Duan Jing's noble concubine Mi Yurou glanced at the two of them, and said seriously, "Enough is enough, there is no gain or loss of royal dignity."

"Your concubine Duanjing don't need to worry about them, if she and her two really understand etiquette, they won't argue in the Ningsu Palace of this palace." Supported by Yuhe, Shen Qingyi turned from the six carved screens of Bainiaochaohuang out, said loudly.

When everyone saw Shen Qingyi entering the hall, they stood up and saluted one after another.Except Concubine Xue Gui and Shen Ronghua, the other concubines held their breaths.What the queen said just now was obviously angry.Everyone had seen the empress get angry before, Shen Qingyi became furious, even the emperor wanted to give her three points, who would dare to offend this aunt easily.

Concubine Xue Gui didn't know it, she got up and smoothed her fairy dress embroidered with plum blossoms, and said coldly, "The concubine is just discussing the matter. If the empress wants to protect her sisters, she will directly issue a decree and seal the mouth of the sixth palace." That's it."

Shen Qingyi took her seat gracefully, glanced sharply at Concubine Xue, and said, "Is it the rules that Concubine Xue learned in Zhen Guogong's mansion to disobey the Empress? Master of the palace?"

Li Tianyou had just come down to court at this time, and when he heard that Qing Yi was looking for him, he hurried over.Just happened to hear the conversation between Concubine Xue Gui and Shen Qingyi.

Shen Qingyi led the crowd to greet him, did not take a seat, stood straight opposite Li Tianyou, and said, "I don't know when this concubine's Ningsu Palace has become a vegetable market, where anyone can put their beaks on it? "

"Queen." Li Tianyou gently pulled Shen Qingyi's Rou Yi, but Qing Yi threw her away.Li Tianyou looked at Shen Qingyi's dark and firm eyes, sighed, looked at Concubine Xuegui and said, "Concubine Xuegui disregarded the palace rules and disobeyed the Queen in the Ningsu Palace. According to the Queen's opinion, how should I deal with it?"

All the concubines held their breath, not daring to say more.The emperor has not stayed in Ningsu Palace for more than ten days, and Zhaoyang Palace sings and sings every night. Everyone thinks that the queen? , I want to vent my anger for the queen.

Only then did Shen Qingyi sit dignifiedly beside Li Tianyou, while Concubine Xue Gui raised her head and stared at the emperor and empress in disbelief.Since she entered the palace, Li Tianyou has stayed in her Zhaoyang Palace every night, except that last night the emperor was going to the Cihui Palace to pay his respects to the Empress Dowager, and was coaxed by Shen Qingwan to go to Xuehua Pavilion.She originally thought that she had firmly grasped the emperor's heart and had successfully defeated the beautiful Shen Qingyi, but she never thought that she was just contradicting Shen Qingyi, and the emperor actually wanted to deal with her according to the palace rules. Shen Qingyi is also required to issue a decree. .

Shen Qingyi glanced at Concubine Xuegui indifferently. Originally, she admired Concubine Xuegui's temper, but she never thought that she would be so stupid and easily taken advantage of by Shen Qingwan.

"Concubine Xuegui entered the palace for the first time, this palace should give her a chance, how about this, ancient times there was a haircut as a substitute, today let the two maids behind Concubine Xuegui take the place." Shen Qingyi tasted the tea , said casually.

Concubine Xue Gui's eyes widened in shock and anger. The two maids behind her were specially selected by Lord Zhen Guo, and they had been by her side since childhood.Tang Aoxue only had these two playmates besides the late former empress. She regarded them as sisters. Originally, she was first brought into the palace by the queen mother, and then she was canonized. He did everything possible to get his elder brother Tang Zihan to get the two of them into the palace.Could it be that if Shen Qingyi said a word, he would have to deal with it.

Concubine Xue Gui's stubborn temper came up, and she was about to argue with Shen Qingyi, the maid Rong'er behind her hurriedly pulled Tang Aoxue's moon-white sleeves, and shook her head gently.Seeing this, Concubine Xuegui bit her lips tightly, stomped her lotus feet lightly, looked at Shen Qingyi in a cold voice and said, "I don't know how the queen wants to deal with these two people?"

"According to the palace rules, if Concubine Xuegui is punished, she should be punished fifty times. Since the maid has treated you before, then double it." Shen Qingyi said lightly.After Yulan's accident, Yu Lian immediately looked through the resumes of all the maids in Zhaoyang Palace. The rest of the court ladies were rewarded by the Queen Mother, only Rong'er and Qiao'er behind them were Zhen Guo. The most important thing about the sons of the Duke's family is that Concubine Xue Gui, who has always been cold and aloof, trusts Rong'er and Qiao'er very much. All the affairs of Zhaoyang Palace, big and small, are taken care of by them.

"One hundred sticks? Wouldn't that mean killing both of them?" Concubine Xue frowned, and her voice rose uncontrollably, "Then empress, it's better not to give the concubine a chance, and let the concubine take the punishment herself. !"

Empress Shen Qingyi glanced at Tang Aoxue, who was righteous and lingering, her eyes were like ice in winter, and she said coldly, "I have just said that Ningsu Palace is not a vegetable market, and bargaining is not allowed. Concubine Xuegui was not very talkative just now. Do you practice etiquette? How can it not work when it is your own turn? Besides, there are only two court ladies. In our palace, among other things, there are a lot of court ladies. I will reward you with a few more .”
