Queen's scheming

Chapter 384
On the second day of the first lunar month, the wives from abroad met.

The front hall of Ningsu Palace was full of people, but they were so quiet that they wished they could hear a needle drop, not for anyone else, but because of Tang Xiurong's words.

The cause of the incident had to start with Mi Yurou's late arrival.

"Imperial Concubine Duanjing is late on a day like this. It's really out of order." Tang Aoxue glanced at Shen Qingyi who was above her with a smile, and said with a smile: "It's strange to say that the imperial concubine is the most well-behaved concubine." But no one, how can we become sisters with the empress, but she is somewhat similar to the empress."

Tang Aoxue's mocking tone was clear, Shen Qingyi sat at the head, took two sips of clear tea calmly, and smiled lightly in front of those wives: "Tang Xiurong is really different from the past few days, the emperor is afraid that there is something wrong with her." You haven't been to Tang Xiurong's Zhaoyang Palace in the past two years! Since Tang Xiurong's New Year's Eve family banquet, after dancing an exotic dance that made the six palace concubines blush, the emperor actually stayed in Zhaoyang Palace for two consecutive days, with Tang Xiurong Studying this dance art, I don't know where Tang Xiurong learned it from, so don't keep it secret, tell us, the palace and the sisters in the palace will naturally not steal your limelight, but you should also think about it The sisters outside the palace, if they can learn Tang Xiurong's tricks, they don't need to spend money, manpower and material resources to carry Auntie to the mansion."

Tang Xiurong was turned away by Shen Qingyi's words. She had been looking for her dance for a long time, and finally learned it from an old palace actress who was born in a brothel. will say.

But the ignorant person rushed to ask, Tang Aoxue angrily gave him a lot of embarrassment.

Shen Qingyi looked at it from the side and sneered endlessly. Even though she was the empress, she still had to worry about Li Tianyou's face, and treated those wives more kindly. The women in the inner house said that they would not be able to stand on the stage, but many courtiers just listened to the rumors. This Tang Aoxue, The people who eat, use, and rely on are all the Duke of the Town, but they never want to make the lining for the Duke of the Town. Such talents are really rare. Now the Duke of the Town can only rely on one follower. Mrs. Zhen is not very caring Mrs. Mrs. Zhen!

Mi Yurou finally entered the palace. Just as Tang Aoxue was about to vent her humiliation on Mi Yurou, Mi Yurou smiled and said, "The concubine is late. It's just not because of her size. We are here. Whoever sees it has a share!"

Shen Qingyi didn't have the slightest hint of resentment, instead she smiled and echoed: "Everyone who sees something will have a share? If you don't come up with something good and just muddle along, I don't think I'll use you as a raft today !"

Mi Yurou raised her eyebrows and said, "The tribute from Chuyue Kingdom just arrived early this morning. The concubines had no choice but to hurry up and take the people from the House of Internal Affairs to clean it up. Only then did I realize that the Chuyue Kingdom had unexpectedly arrived this time." He sent three carts of balsamic ointment, all kinds of which were very exquisite. The balsamic ointment could not last for a long time. , Empress Do not feel distressed."

These matters have always been decided by Mi Yurou, Shen Qingyi never paid attention to these trivial matters, so naturally she would not say anything.

Mi Yurou ordered the palace servants to bring it in, and said with a smile: "This is Chuyue's tribute, it is very good to use, you can see the complexion of the empress, since our empress entered The balsamic ointments used in the Palace have always been tribute from the Chuyue Kingdom, since Princess Ruiwei became the princess of Chuyue, more and more balsamic ointments have been given away!"

There is no woman who doesn't love beauty, hearing what Mi Yurou said, each of them chose two from the tray, and when everyone finished taking them, there were more than ten left.

Tang Aoxue noticed that Mi Yurou and Mrs. Jinghui didn't take it, and Mi Yurou took out a delicate plum blossom-shaped glazed box from the sleeve box. The box was only slightly bigger than a thumb, and a little light came through. Tang Aoxue pursed her lips and said with some dissatisfaction: "Just now the empress said, don't concubines hide their secrets, what are you doing now? A majestic empress, in front of a married woman It's a bit petty to be sneaky."

Shen Qingyi looked a little displeased and said: "Tang Xiurong, please be careful what you say, it's not your turn to dictate how this Palace will do things!"

Tang Aoxue glanced at Shen Qingyi, and found that Shen Qingyi had opened the plum blossom-shaped glazed box, and the faint scent of plum blossoms hit her, even more delicate than the smell of plum blossoms everywhere in her Zhaoyang Palace. Tang Aoxue is always a lover. The man of plum blossoms, how could he sit still, he naturally wanted to take that box of balm into his own hands.

"What's in the Queen's hand? Why does it smell different from the one used by concubines and others?" Tang Aoxue stared at the balm in Shen Qingyi's hand and asked with a smile.All the wives in the palace just pretended not to hear, how could the objects used by the queen empress look like them, and it was already extremely difficult to reward them with some.

Mi Yurou was a little displeased, and answered for Shen Qingyi: "Princess Chuyue sent this specially for the empress. I heard that Chuyue got such a box this year, so naturally not everyone can have it." .”

Tang Aoxue gritted her teeth and said, "The concubine and the concubine of Chuyue also have some friendship, and the concubine is used to liking plum blossoms. No one in the whole palace knows that even the emperor praises concubines. Only concubines are worthy of plum blossoms." The noble concubine is noble and cold, how does the imperial concubine know that this balm is not specially reserved for concubines?"

Mi Yurou sneered and said, "Tang Xiurong needs to know her identity. Princess Chuyue is not remembered by everyone. How could she give Tang Xiurong Balsam well?"

Tang Aoxue stared at Mi Yurou coldly, and said sarcastically: "The concubine always knows her identity. The concubine is the younger sister of the first queen, who took care of Princess Chuyue for two years. Who knows if Princess Chuyue is grateful for her?" The kindness of the empress to take care of her was specially restrained? But the imperial concubine should remember her identity, since ancient times there is a difference between concubine and concubine!"

Shen Qingyi quickly interrupted the quarrel, and said sharply: "What day is this nonsense! It's just a box of balm, since Tang Xiurong believes that Princess Chuyue specially made it for you, just give it to you. How decent are these wives and old wives arguing like this!"

Shen Qingyi threw the balm in her hand to Tang Aoxue, looking so angry that she didn't want to see people again. Those wives are so smart, they each found a reason to resign, but they just went back to the mansion and told themselves what happened in the harem one by one. Husband, this Tang Aoxue has already quarreled with the queen in the open, and Tang Aoxue even snatched the empress's belongings. Who knows if she will take the position of the empress in the future, now is the time to start standing in line!
