Concubine Huang said she wanted to leave

Chapter 3 Living in the Harem
The servant girl led the order to go down to set tea, and the butler went down to receive the guards he had brought with his eyesight, leaving the two of them a chance to be alone in the room.

After everyone had left, Jin Yantang put down the mask in front of the crowd, and stretched out his hand to grab Shang Kelan's hand on his lap with a doting expression. He was very fast, and Shang Kelan grabbed his hand before he had time to react.

She was angry, and stared at him with round eyes, "Your Majesty, let go!"

Seeing the vivid expression on her face, Jin Yantang's heartstrings relaxed, and his hands became more and more aggressive.

He put his hands on her waist, Lashan Kelan came into his arms, put his chin on the top of her hair, and coaxed her in a doting tone, "Don't be angry with me, it's not that I don't want to take you back. Unsteady, I'm afraid it will hurt you."

Shang Kelan smiled sarcastically: "Then Zhao Kehan ​​was appointed as the empress, and the selection of young women to enter the palace is also forced by the times?"

"This..." Jin Yantang couldn't answer this question after all.

After pondering for a while, he settled down and decided to hide it. The situation is unstable, and the less she knows, the safer she will be.

He curled his lips into a smile, scratched the tip of Shang Kelan's nose with a smile, and changed the topic: "I heard that my father-in-law and mother-in-law will move their family to Dazhou next month to settle down. When will they arrive? I will send people to live in the palace at that time." I will be with you for a few days."

Shang Kelan had never heard of this matter, and as soon as he mentioned it, Shang Kelan couldn't help asking for details, and Jin Yantang also told her in detail what he knew.

The two chatted happily for a short time, and finally Shang Kelan agreed to the purpose of Jin Yantang's trip and went back to the palace with him, but she had one request.

That is, a hundred people will be driven by a car, and eight sedan chairs will be carried to meet her!Jin Yantang complied naturally.

So in the early morning of the next day, a convoy of hundreds of people came out of the palace, carrying eight large sedan chairs, and headed straight for the uncle Shang's mansion with the sound of gongs and drums, and brought back the imperial concubine Shang.

Amidst the heated discussions among the people, Shang Kelan entered the gate of the palace.

In the Xianya palace, all the eunuchs and maids held their breaths, waiting respectfully and quietly for the arrival of the new master.

At Chen Shi, Shang Kelan was led to the main hall by the chief executive Fu Pu, and everyone kowtowed to Jishou to worship.

"Greetings to the imperial concubine, the empress is a thousand years old!"

Dozens of hundreds of people fell to the ground to worship, and the voices echoed in the wide hall, as if there were thousands of people.

Shang Kelan had only seen this scene when his ancestors offered sacrifices or paid respects to the Buddha. He was stunned for a moment, but he reacted quickly, and waved his wide sleeves in a gesture of support: "Stay flat."

"The servant waits to thank the empress."

After the master and servant met each other, Fupu waved away a group of rough servants, and led four fat, swallow, thin and beautiful maids to come to Shang Kelan, "Ma'am, these four are sent to you by Your Majesty from the Hall of Mental Cultivation. The female officials, Wenchun, Xiaoxia, Zhiqiu, and Wandong."

Every time he said a name, a servant girl stood up and saluted, so that Shang Kelan could distinguish who they were.

Hearing that it was Jin Yantang's special order, Shang Kelan still held the tea poured by Yuan Ge with a calm expression. She came over Yuan Ge as soon as she arrived in the palace. It was the word of the Holy Majesty, asking her to return to her side to serve her. Became the maid in charge.

Shang Kelan brushed off the tea foam with slow movements, not a trace of being moved or proud of being favored, which made the people below to be more respectful to her.

After taking a sip of tea, Shang Kelan unhurriedly raised his eyes and glanced at the four of them, and then lightly looked at Yuan Ge beside him and said, "Since it was called by His Majesty, I will respect you." It's better to follow orders, Yuange will let you arrange them."

Yuan Ge respectfully responded, and quickly led a few people out of the hall. After Fupu brought them back, he didn't stay long, and quickly said goodbye.

The people in the palace always see people talking about people and ghosts talking nonsense, Shang Kelan also politely said: "I'm new here, I haven't cleaned up everything, and it's inconvenient to keep Eunuch Fu, Zhizi, you can send Eunuch Fu for me. "

Fu Pu bowed his body: "Your Majesty, you are polite. Your Majesty is still waiting for the old slave in the imperial study, so the old slave will not disturb the lady to get close." After finishing speaking, he bowed and bowed out of the hall.

Zhi Zi followed to see off the guests, and after leaving the main hall, she took the initiative to offer a delicate purse and said with a smile: "This servant is new to the palace, so I don't understand anything, I hope you will remind me more in the future."

Eunuch Fu put the purse in his arms and turned it upside down in secret. The heavy weight made his old face wrinkle into a smile: "Aunt Zhizi, you are welcome, just ask Sajia if you have anything in the future."

After Eunuch Fu left, Zhi Zi hurriedly returned to the palace to serve Shang Kelan.

During lunch, Jin Yantang came to Xianya Palace to have dinner with Shang Kelan in the early morning. The news spread outside the palace very quickly, making all the concubines jealous.

Shang Kelan didn't know about all this, she just lowered her head and ate her own food, and she didn't want to pay attention to Jin Yantang.

Jin Yantang kept ordering the maids around to bring vegetables to Shang Kelan. These dishes were specially prepared for the emperor in the imperial dining room. Jin Yantang was tired of eating them. Today, with Shang Kelan accompanying him, he felt that the dishes he was tired of eating before seemed to be added again. new taste.

"Lan'er, are you still used to the imperial meals in the palace?" Seeing that Shang Kelan seemed a little unhappy, Jin Yantang asked aloud, and stopped his chopsticks.

The emperor didn't eat, so Shang Kelan naturally put down her chopsticks, touched her lips with a handkerchief from a gardenia, and said very politely: "The imperial food tastes very good, and my concubine is used to it."

After lunch, Jin Yantang lingered on and did not go until the middle of the day before going to the imperial study to deal with official business.

He had just left, and Shang Kelan was about to take a bath and rest, when Gardenia came to report, and all the concubines in the harem came to pay their respects with presents.

Jin Yantang had only been enthroned for more than two months, and there were not many concubines, but only about twenty, and they brought congratulatory gifts, Shang Kelan could not refuse.

After all, she also has her own plan, she has never experienced Gongdu, and she has read many novels by Gongdou in modern times.This imperial palace has always been a place that cannibalize people without spitting out their bones. If you don't put up 12 energy to deal with it, and rely on a little nostalgic love, I'm afraid you won't live long.

So, after dressing up, Shang Kelan sat on the main seat of the inner palace and told Zhizi: "Go and invite all the ladies to come in."

Zhizi went out in response, and soon several high-ranking concubines headed by Concubine Hua Li Yuanchun came in first, and then dozens of beautiful women followed behind them.

Huanfei, Yanshou and thin each have their own merits, and when they saw Shang Kelan, their expressions were also different, but when Shang Kelan looked over, they all nodded slightly, pretending to be cute.

The inner hall, which had been empty for a while, suddenly became crowded with excitement.

Concubine Hua was the first to salute Shang Kelan, "The concubine Hua has met the imperial concubine, the empress is a thousand years old and Jin'an."

As the delicate girl of the governor of Yangzhou, she has always been used to being arrogant, even if Qu Shen saluted Shang Kelan, she inadvertently showed her reserve.

Shang Kelan didn't feel anything about these things, but felt that the woman in front of her was very familiar, so she couldn't help but look at her twice, and forgot to let her fall down for a while.

This unintentional move attracted the attention of all the concubines present...
