Ajiu

Chapter 52

Concubine Xian sneered, "Okay, tell me! Your Highness, go to Qianqing Palace now, and tell your father, who is busy with political affairs, that Lin Yuan, who is studying with you, doesn't like flattery or take advantage of your heart. You want to change her?" One will please!"

Concubine Xian's words were full of ridicule, how could Princess Jiu not hear it?She couldn't help but blushed, and there was anger in her face, "Are you wondering whether I can enter the Qianqing Palace or something? I'll tell you right now!"

Although the words are very aggressive, the confidence is very insufficient.Although she is favored, she is not someone who can break into the Qianqing Palace to disturb the emperor, she still has self-knowledge.Speaking hard words at the moment is just a strong support.

Concubine Xian snorted, pointed at the gate and said, "Go! You can go now and see if I will stop you!" You also know that you can't enter Qianqing Palace, and you are still here to fight against me !Qianqing Palace is your father's bedroom, and also the place where he handles political affairs, so you can come in and out at will?
Ninth Princess was choked by Concubine Xian's words, she didn't want to leave, she didn't want to stay, she stomped her feet angrily and shed tears.

Concubine Xian was angry at her for not fooling around and being ignorant, seeing her crying, she felt distressed.The hater looked at it for a long time, sighed, pulled her over and sat down, and coaxed her softly, "Are there not enough people who flatter you? There is no shortage of Lin Yuan. Don't worry about these, be obedient. "

The nine princesses were sobbing and crying, "Not only this, but she also has an annoying cousin, and she is still facing this cousin..." Incoherently speaking about the affairs of Duke Wei's mansion, Concubine Xian After listening for a long time, I barely figured it out.Dare to love because the tenth prince threw her aside and played with the younger junior sister, so she became annoyed with the younger junior sister and angered Lin Yuan along the way.

Concubine Xian frowned, "Is it okay to argue with a little girl?"

Princess Jiu said angrily: "Although that girl is small, she is very hateful! Don't say anything about bullying Brother Ten from the beginning to the end. When her brothers and cousins ​​came, Brother Ten would say that men and women can't get along with each other, and forced me away. !"

She was wronged enough to follow behind the Tenth Prince, but when the Pei and Lin brothers came, the Tenth Prince simply sent her, Qiu Mei, and Lin's sisters away, leaving only a young Ajiu .It's so easy to get out of the palace to play for a while under the influence of Brother Ten, but because of this little girl, Brother Ten throws her aside, she loses face and doesn't have a good time, you say it's annoying or not!For this matter, Princess Nine was so angry that she almost burned herself.She is so angry, how can she not vent her anger on Lin Yuan, how can she let Lin Yuan An Ansheng be a companion to read again.

She didn't want to see Lin Yuan again, and she didn't want Lin Yuan to enjoy the glory of reading with the princess.

Concubine Xian persuaded her with a few good words, but she acted as if she didn't hear her, and just kept arguing against her.Concubine Xian became impatient, "You are so stubborn, I really don't like it. I think of you wholeheartedly, but you can only mess around."

Concubine Xian's words were very serious, Princess Jiu didn't want to cry, but after hearing this, her eyes turned red, and she ran away crying.Concubine Xian frowned tightly, and ordered the maid to catch up with her, and sent her back to the princess' place.

You are just the daughter of a concubine in the palace, do you really think that you are very favored, and you can win the wind or the rain?Concubine Xian looked at the figure of the Ninth Princess going away, with a bitter smile on the corner of her mouth.

Your father has thirteen princes and nine princesses, even if he favors you a little bit, where can he go.Daughter, why don't you think about it carefully, you are only arrogant and willful.

Are you self-willed?

Concubine Xian intends to be patient and teach her daughter, breaking down the truth and explaining it to her clearly, so that she can grow up, don't just focus on the momentary pleasure, and don't plan for the future at all.

Concubine Xian's plan was correct, but when Concubine Gong routinely went to Kunning Palace to pay her respects, Concubine Qiu said something to her, which made her plan come to nothing.

Kunning Palace is the queen's bedroom, facing south, with nine wide corridors and three deep ones, with yellow glazed tiles and double eaves on the roof, magnificent and radiant.The owner of Kunning Palace is Empress Zhang. She and the emperor are husband and wife. They are also in their early fifties. In this harem full of beauties, she is really old.

After Concubine Xian arrived, she realized that she was early.Not only the empress did not come out, but also Concubine De, Concubine Jing, Concubine Duan and others, not to mention Concubine Qiu Gui who is the most favored of the Sixth Palace.

"I have something on my mind, can't I sleep?" Concubine Xian thought mockingly.

"You are so diligent." A gorgeously dressed beauty appeared at the entrance of the hall, smiling at Concubine Xian, "I thought I was the number one, but I didn't know you were ahead of me."

It turned out to be Qiu Guifei, who has always been arrogant and defiant.

Concubine Qiu Gui was in her twenties, dressed in an apricot yellow palace attire, her features were picturesque, and she was unspeakably beautiful.She is a beautiful woman, a very lively beauty, and maybe she has some unknown strengths. In short, she has been very popular in the past few years, and she faintly intends to fight against Queen Zhang.Among other things, in the past few years, she has given birth to three princes, the eleventh, twelfth, and thirteenth, which shows how favored she is.

In the past few years, she was the only one who gave birth to the prince.The other concubines didn't move at all.

It can be regarded as a collection of three thousand favorites.

At this time, she looked at Concubine Xian with a half-smile, her eyes couldn't tell whether it was sarcasm, ridicule, or something else.Concubine Xian was startled, she hurriedly stood up and greeted with a smile, Concubine Qiu didn't show any politeness to her, she nodded slightly, walked to the front and took her seat.

"My sister's daughter, Chen Lingrong, the eldest lady of the Linjiang Houfu, wants to accompany Xiaojiu to read." Concubine Qiu Gui said lightly.

Her voice was not high, but it was not in a discussion tone at all, but rather like a notification.

Just to let you know, it's time for Xiaojiu's companion to change, so you can find a way to do it.

Concubine Xian was shocked and angry.Xiao Jiu can only have two companions in total, and one has already been assigned to your niece Qiu Mei, what else do you want?Both companions must be relatives of your natal family, why not.

You and your natal sister didn't get along a while ago, and you wanted to drag her concubine to disgust her, and now you're pulling her biological daughter away, what the hell are you doing, changing back and forth!

I know that you are favored, and I have always allowed you to be gentle and obedient in front of you.But don't you feel ashamed for using this commanding tone?You are not a queen!On the contrary, the queen is very modest. She is not angry and pretentious, but unlike you, she is exposed, superficial, and does not know the heights of heaven and earth.

When Concubine Xian was startled and angry, Concubine Duan, Concubine Jing, Concubine De and others had already filed in, smiling and saluting.In front of everyone, Concubine Qiu Gui didn't say anything, Concubine Xian didn't answer, everyone just chatted, what new clothes are there in Suzhou and Hangzhou, what rare cosmetics are there in the market, where is the most beautiful scenery in the palace garden... …It’s all unmistakable crap.

The concubines waited for a long time, but they didn't wait until Queen Zhang came out to meet her.It wasn't until they were hungry, their buttocks hurt, and the smiles on their faces couldn't hold back, that a middle-aged female officer came in and told them coldly, "His Royal Highness is not feeling well, ladies, please go back." .”

Concubine Qiu Gui sneered twice, "Since the Empress is not feeling well, let's be sensible and go back to each other." She stood up, with anger in her eyes and chest heaving, obviously angry.

She has been held in the palm of the emperor's hands for the past few years, and she has been spoiled, so she can't bear this useless attitude.

Concubine Duan respectfully asked the female officer to pay her respects to Her Highness the Queen, kowtowed respectfully to the Queen's throne, stood up, and did not leave immediately, but asked the female officer if she had the honor to serve Her Highness the decoction .There was a slight smile on the serious face of the female officer, and she said politely: "No need." Concubine Duan nodded, and asked to pay her respects to Her Royal Highness, with a sincere face.

Concubine Xian, Concubine De, Concubine Jing and other concubines hesitated for a while, followed Concubine Duan's example and kowtowed to greet Concubine Duan, Fang followed Concubine Duan and filed out.

"She's the only one who can curry favor!" Concubine Qiu looked at Concubine Duan who ignored her and left in a solemn way, feeling furious in her heart.Concubine Duan, you are not a condescending person. You are a young lady of the Duke's Mansion just like me. Although you were born a few years late and have a hard life to be a concubine, you don't have to wrong yourself like this?
Concubine Qiu walked out angrily, outside the hall, she accidentally saw the halls at both ends of Kunning Palace, she couldn't help but freeze.This hallway can directly lead to Jiaotai Hall and Qianqing Palace, and it can directly lead to the emperor.

Only the palace where the queen lives, only the queen...

Concubine Qiu bit her pink lips and walked away.

Concubine Xian is the biological mother of the ninth princess, so she naturally cares about the nine princesses' studies and accompany her to study.When the ninth princess brought Qiu Mei and Lin Yuan to the princess's place for tea and rest, the concubine Xian happened to come to see her daughter, and asked Qiu Mei and Lin Yuan a lot about the family.

"Miss Lin San, have you been feeling unwell for the past few days? Looking at her complexion is a little pale." Concubine Xian asked warmly.

Lin Yuan smiled happily, "My lady, you have really good eyes! Isn't that right? I don't have a good appetite these days, and I'm lazy to eat. I don't know why."

Concubine Xian looked at the girl who was smiling like a flower in front of her, her heart was so blocked that she couldn't speak.

Lin Yuan took sick leave the next day.This sick leave was reported for a long time, and I didn't come to class for a month.

"It seems that I have to choose another reading companion." Concubine Xian sighed.

The emperor would visit Concubine Xian every month or two, talk about his children, and ask the Eighth Prince and Ninth Princess if they were naughty.The emperor is over 50 years old, and his body is a bit fat. His face should be regarded as kind, but he has the majesty of a superior person, which makes people dare not look up to him.Concubine Xian was always trembling and fearful in front of him.

When the emperor came, Concubine Xian carefully told her about choosing another reading companion.

"The girl of the Lin family is sick?" The emperor was a little surprised, "Okay, why is she sick?"

Aren't the children of Lao Lin's family always in good health?

Concubine Xian laughed, "Probably because the child is too young, a little carelessness in eating will easily get sick."

The emperor smiled, "So."

The emperor agreed that the nine princesses should choose another companion to read, but he sent a servant to the Lin family on a special trip and rewarded Lin Yuan with many valuable medicinal materials and supplements.

Although Lin Yuan is no longer the princess' companion, she is not gloomy and her face is still bright.

Concubine Xian got busy again, and began to choose companions for her nine princesses.The girls who were called into the palace all worked secretly at home, carefully deliberating on etiquette and conversation, lest something might go wrong.

Ajiu was also among those who were called.However, she didn't like to go to the Forbidden City, and she didn't like to read with the Ninth Princess. She looked at Pei Erye and Lin Youhui with an aggrieved face, and blinked her big black eyes, which was very pitiful.

"Is Ah Jiu in a bad mood these days?" Second Master Pei smiled and turned to ask his wife.

"Isn't that right, I often droop my little head, it seems that I need to invite the imperial physician to take a look." Lin Youhui pursed his lips and smiled.

Ajiu's eyes lit up.

She jumped at Lin Youhui happily, "Mother, which imperial physician are you looking for? How is this imperial physician's medical skills?"

Lin Youhui laughed, "It's an imperial physician who has dealt with the Lin family for several lifetimes. This imperial physician has good ears and eyes, and if my daughter has any discomfort, she can tell at a glance."

Ajiu cheered loudly, "Great!"

What a dear father and mother, they knew how to write a few small poems for the flower fair, and they would invite a reliable imperial doctor to enter the palace to run for election!

Second Master Pei reached out to hug his precious daughter, Ah Jiu took his cheek and kissed him, then leaned over and kissed Lin Youhui, smiling like a flower.
