Concubine Mi in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 38

After Li Dequan left, Wang Miheng stared at the uniform in the tray for a while, speechless, and Kangxi's manipulative method broke her record again.

It turns out that Kangxi is not a person who knows how to play hooligans, but Kangxi is not human at all if he wants to play hooligans!

Wang Miheng rubbed the center of his eyebrows, feeling very headache.

"Qiu Ju, go fetch a basin of water." After drinking the water in the teacup in one go, Wang Miheng spoke sullenly.

Hey, if you don't die, you won't die!Kangxi's rank is really high, no matter how much she thumps, she can't get over his Wuzhishan.

Qiu Ju, who was standing by the side, looked at the expression on her young master's face, and there was something she didn't understand.

Just to put it bluntly, the emperor is the son of heaven, how can the emperor be teased casually?The young master is stealing chickens and losing rice, thinking of the look on Li Eunuch's face when he came in just now, she felt scared for a while.

Fortunately, the emperor was not really angry.

Even so, Qiu Ju secretly made up her mind that she must persuade the young master more in the future, and she must not let the young master be so presumptuous by her own temper.

Yonghe Palace
Concubine De was wearing a lake-green brocade gown with double breasts, sitting on the head seat, slowly sipping tea with a teacup in her hand.

Concubine Xiang and Concubine Yuan were sitting on the embroidered pier next to each other. Seeing Concubine De's interest was not high, Concubine Xiang gave Yuan Guiren a nonchalant look, and Yuan Guiren flinched and stood up hastily.

"Your Majesty, they are all concubines and concubines who are incompetent, and cannot share your worries for your Majesty."

There was silence in the air, and after a long time, Concubine De said thoughtfully: "Concubine Xiang, although Mrs. Yuan Gui is a member of your palace, she is also the master of the harem after all. The emperor and queen mother decide whether to scold or punish. Concubine, do you think so?"

These words are too serious, almost no sympathy, just after Concubine De finished speaking, Xiang Concubine showed a look of embarrassment on her face, she quickly stood up and said with a smile: "Your Majesty's words are very true."

When hearing these words, Concubine De continued to fiddle with the teacup in her hand, and Concubine Xiang's heart skipped a beat, she hurriedly suppressed the smile on her face, and stepped forward to kneel there.

"Your Majesty, the concubine is just in a hurry, and I hope you will forgive me."

"Okay, get up." Concubine De picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then calmly called her up.

Concubine Xiang stood up cautiously, but when she got up, she gave Yuan Guiren who was standing beside her a hard look, hmph, she knew she was pretending to be pitiful, and those who didn't know thought that this palace had treated you so harshly.

Just thinking about the way she was being wronged carefully just now, the anger in her heart surged up slowly, wishing she could raise her hand and slap her across the face, it was only because she was in front of Concubine De that she had to suppress this emotion go down.

Concubine De was aware of these petty actions of Concubine Xiang, but this time she did not criticize, she just asked indifferently: "Did the Emperor summon you these days?"

"Concubine..." Hearing these words, Xiangbi's face tightened and she was ashamed.

She knew in her heart that not only these days, but since the emperor came back from the southern tour, he has not turned over her sign once.

If it wasn't for her status as a "concubine" to barely maintain a bit of dignity, why would she not know how to be abused?
But, what can she do if the emperor doesn't come, everyone can see what happened to Concubine Ding, and she is the one who has touched the emperor's brow at this time.

It's better to be like now, neither salty nor bland, after all, he is also the lord of the first house.

It's just that she was unwilling to spend her days in obscurity like this.

"Okay, I don't have so much time to listen to your explanation, I just want to tell you one thing, since the emperor doesn't take you seriously, you have to find a way out by yourself." Concubine De looked at Xiang Xiang meaningfully. The concubine glanced at her, and then her eyes fell thoughtfully on Yuan Guiren who was sitting beside him silently.

Hearing this, Concubine Xiang was startled for a moment, but then she understood what Concubine De meant, she was not valued by the emperor, but Yuan Guiren was a member of her palace, if Yuan Guiren could win the emperor's favor, it would be great for her A blessing.

but……

How could she be willing to let Yuan Guiren come to be favored?Not to mention that she is just a little nobleman, whose status is many times inferior to her, but she is the most clear about Yuan Guiren's temperament. How can such a temperament win the eyes of the emperor?

In her opinion, she was just born with a good skin.

Thinking in this way, Concubine Xiang unconsciously sized Yuan Guiren up and down, and she had to admit that Yuan Guiren, whom she never looked directly at, was so beautiful and outstanding.

Look at her attire, the light red palace attire, a simple wishful bun on her head, and a jasper hairpin seemingly casually inserted, but it also seems to complement each other so well. This kind of shyness that I still feel pity for, even the timid and cautious eyes on weekdays have a kind of elegant and gentle temperament.

Seeing this, Concubine Xiang's heart was suddenly blocked. She didn't know when Yuan Guiren also learned this kind of foxy kung fu.

"The empress taught me that the concubine will definitely find a way to make the emperor go to Changchun Palace often."

Concubine De's temperament is still very accurate, she said this, not to discuss with you, but to inform you.

To put it bluntly, it was warning her not to spoil her good deeds.

Although Concubine Xiang was dissatisfied in her heart, she did not dare to show a trace of dissatisfaction on her face. She had stayed in the palace for so many years, so she could see the situation in the harem clearly.

Apart from the emperor and the empress dowager, the masters in this palace are the concubine De. Although Chengqian Palace also has a noble concubine, it is obvious that the concubine De's weight in the heart of the emperor is not comparable to that of the concubine.

Don't say anything else, let's just say that there is no prince or princess around the imperial concubine, and the concubine de concubine, in addition to the fourth elder brother, also has a fourteenth elder brother who is very much loved by the emperor.

This point is something that the master of Chengqian Palace can't get over in his whole life.

Hearing Concubine Xiang's assurance, Concubine De's face softened slightly, and she glanced at Concubine Xiang standing there with satisfaction.

"Okay, let's all sit down, stand there one by one, you are not tired, I still look tired."

"Thank you, ma'am." The concubine Xiang said gratefully.

"Thank you, ma'am." Yuan Guiren was also moved.

No matter how dull she was in the scene just now, she understood what was going on.There was an indescribable feeling in her heart, if she could really win the favor of the emperor, in the future, she wouldn't have to look at the concubine Xiang's face for everything.

Seeing the two of them sitting down, Concubine De smiled and said: "A few days ago, the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent some pieces of material, which were very light and soft, and the color was also good. I asked someone to find them out. You can make some with them." Clothes are."

The concubine Xiang understood De Concubine's mind best, and said with a smile: "How dare a concubine ask for such an expensive thing from your mother, but Mrs. Yuan Gui, who usually only has a few plain clothes, the concubine will at least have to pay for her. The lady begged for something."

One is "want" and the other is "beg". The difference between one word is more than a thousand miles.

The concubine Xiang had no intention of speaking, but she didn't notice that the smile on Yuan Guiren's face stopped slightly when she heard this, her whole face turned pale, and the handkerchief in her hand was pinched into wrinkles.

Yuan Guiren suppressed the grievance in his heart and did not make a sound.

In fact, in Concubine Xiang's heart, Yuan Guiren was even worse than the maids around her, so why would she care if she felt uncomfortable when she said these words?
Concubine De smiled disapprovingly: "Since you have such a heart, Concubine Xiang, then choose a few horses for Yuan Gui and take them back to the palace. It's all because of your intention as the first palace lord."

The concubine Xiang smiled: "That concubine will not be polite."

That's right, Concubine De is also contemptuous of Yuan Guiren, but there is a little difference, although she is contemptuous, she can bring out her role to the fullest.

She could see that a person like Yuan Guiren was able to live comfortably under the concubine Xiang's hands for so many years, he was not without a city.

Some pretty, but also very powerful, especially not a decent position to be favored by the emperor, such a person is easier to control than the concubine Ding who was favored in the past.

In many cases, some seemingly inconspicuous chess pieces can have unexpected effects.

Just as she was talking, Luo Er, the palace maid next to Concubine De, came in, she whispered a few words in Concubine De's ear, and she saw a dignified expression on Concubine De's face.

"Your Majesty, there are still some matters to be dealt with in the concubine's palace. If you have nothing else to do, the concubine will leave first." The concubine stood up knowingly and said in a soft voice.

"Well, you should step back first, you must always keep in mind what I say." Concubine De didn't say anything more, she picked up the teacup.

This is the meaning of seeing off guests.

The concubine Xiang and Yuan Gui respectfully blessed the body and left.

The two walked out of the Yonghe Palace one after the other. Thinking of what happened just now, Yuan Guiren's heart twitched, but he had no choice but to get up cheeky and squat down.

"My concubine, I would like to thank my mother for her kindness."

The concubine Xiang glanced at her, but didn't call out: "Promoting? I don't remember when I supported you, younger sister?"

Yuan Guiren smiled slightly, looked into her eyes and said sincerely: "If it wasn't for your concubine's support, how could the concubine get into the eyes of the concubine? Otherwise, with a humble concubine, how can I expect such dignity?"

After hearing this, concubine Xiang flashed a look of disdain, but she took a step forward and helped her up herself: "There is no need to be so polite between you and my sister, my sister is from the Changchun Palace, if she can be valued by the emperor , Sister, I also have brilliance on my face, don’t I?”

This night, Li Dequan came to the Changchun Palace and said that the emperor had flipped Yuan Guiren's signboard.In the next few days, Kangxi seemed to be fascinated, and called Yuan Guiren to sleep with him for several nights.

It is said that the emperor dotes on the master of the Qixiang Palace, but when this happened, everyone couldn't figure it out.
