The Job of an Imperial Concubine

Others may not know what the phosphor powder is for, but Feng Jin does know it. When he was young, he had seen a juggler perform, and out of curiosity, he asked the juggler to ask, and only then did he know which ones were floating in the dark. The scary-looking "wild-wisps" are the cause of the phosphorous powder.

"Your Majesty, there is a young eunuch in the palace whose ancestors are jugglers, but he explained the reason for the strange fire at night. It turned out to be related to the phosphorous powder on the maid." Gao Dezhong knew that the emperor was not curious I'm afraid he knew the reason, and he added, "I have been in the palace for so many years, but I don't know that phosphorous powder has such effects, it is really ignorant."

"Not to mention you, even I accidentally learned that phosphor powder has this effect," Feng Jin said in a slightly better mood, "It's common sense that you don't know, I'm afraid few people in the palace know about this kind of thing."

"Your Majesty is knowledgeable and talented, and your slaves are too late." Gao Dezhong said suspiciously, "That man knew that this is the only way for the Emperor to go to Xihe Palace, but he still made such a weird scene. I don't know what kind of thought he had."

"I'm afraid that someone made this move just because it is the only way for me to go to Xihe Palace," Feng Jin said lightly, "Now that the identity of the palace lady and the reason for the weird blue fire are clarified, this matter Let the queen check it out, it is really unpleasant for the maid to do this kind of thing."

"Yes, this servant is going to Jingyang Palace to convey the emperor's will." Gao Dezhong saw that the emperor was not happy about this matter, so he didn't dare to say more, and quickly retreated quietly.

To say that the queen's luck is really bad recently, accidents happen one after another in the harem, but she can't figure out the reason, and now the emperor despises the Zhao family, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to sit in the back seat in the future.

The empress had just accepted the emperor's order to keep her mouth shut, and now she received the emperor's order to strictly investigate, and felt a little unhappy. There are quite a lot of things about this Zhao Xianrong, she made some things every few days, she, a queen, actually made it look like a minister of the Ministry of punishment, but the emperor wanted to protect her reputation, even if she wanted to use this as an excuse You have to think twice about what you do.

"Your Majesty, what should I do about this matter?" He Yu frowned, "The matter of Zhaoxian Rong's miscarriage just stopped a few days ago, why is this matter again... How about I call your concubine Xiangui to discuss it together."

"Do you really think that Jiang Yingxue will still serve my palace wholeheartedly?" The queen sneered, "Now that she is a noble concubine and has the eldest prince under her, how can she not have other thoughts."

"Your concubine Xiangui has always been on good terms with you, so you probably won't..." He Yu said with some hesitation.

"There is no sisterhood in this harem," the queen straightened her expression, calmly called her confidant eunuch and maid, and ordered some things.

In the Pearl Embroidery Pavilion, Zhuang Luoyan looked at the snowflakes blowing outside, and at the other people seated together, she tightened her hands on the Tang Pozi.

In fact, she doesn't want to accompany Xu Zhaorong to experience the fun of making tea in the snow, and she doesn't want to chat about women's life with the unfamiliar concubine Ning and Concubine Xian. She just wants to go back to the palace and enjoy the corrupt life under the covers.

Isn't the most beautiful thing on a snowy day to lie in the warm blanket and enjoy the warmth? Why does she have to sit in a pavilion that can't block the wind on all sides? Even with hot tea, snacks, and a charcoal stove, she still feels uncomfortable.

Why did she choose such a path with low legs, calling you low legs, and telling you to meet other concubines!

"Drinking tea here has a special taste." Concubine Xian took a sip from the teacup, "I haven't had a good look at the scenery in the palace for a few days."

"Concubine Xiangui and Concubine Ning have to be very busy as assistants in the harem," Xu Zhaorong said, "Concubines don't care about these matters, but thinking about it, they feel that these things are extremely troublesome."

"The empress is the one who is really busy. We are just taking care of the sidelines and taking the title for nothing." Concubine Xian put down her teacup, "Nowadays there are a lot of things happening in the harem, I am afraid that the empress will not be able to have a good rest for a few days. "

Zhuang Luoyan glanced at the three of them, wondering what Concubine Xian Gui meant by saying this. Concubine Xiangui is the empress's person, and everyone in the harem knows it in their hearts, but it makes people feel a little fake when they talk about it at this time.

Concubine Ning nodded and said: "What Concubine Xian Gui said is right."

Since Zhuang Luoyan had a miscarriage, the queen's rights have been divided, Xu Zhaorong deliberately brought this up now, not only to please the second concubine Xianning, but also to keep Zhuang Luoyan from coming to power.

Zhuang Luoyan is not a fool, but she just doesn't understand why Xu Zhaorong hates her. Could it be that she is too vulgar and conflicts with her fresh and melancholy temperament?

"Zhao Xianrong has been silent, but she has something on her mind?" Concubine Xian's attitude towards Zhuang Luoyan is very friendly, no matter what the reason is, at least she never loses Zhuang Luoyan's face.

"Your Majesty has sharp eyes," Zhuang Luoyan forced a smile, "I haven't been able to sleep well recently, and sometimes I seem to hear a child crying, so I'm so confused in front of my Majesty."

"Hey, there's nothing wrong with being out of style." Concubine Xian added hot tea to Zhuang Luorou's cup with her own hands, "You are not in good health yet, I am only worried that if you don't rest well, it won't help your body. You are now in full bloom. Mao Sheng's favorite is his wife, there is nothing he can't think about."

Zhuang Luorou showed an unattractive smile, took a sip from the teacup, "Thank you for your words, concubines are useless, the tired lady is worried."

"Ms. Xianrong is so thoughtful, it really hurts her body." Xu Zhaorong looked at Zhuang Luoyan with a smile, "It is useless to think too much about some things."

Zhuang Luoyan looked back at Xu Zhaorong, "Xu Zhaorong's words are reasonable. Some things are not only useless to think about, but also useless to do."

The smile on Xu Zhaorong's face froze, his hand holding the teacup tightly, but he couldn't speak anymore.

Concubine Ning seemed to be unable to hear the meaning between the two people's words, she smiled and pointed not far away, "Look, is there a talented person in front of you?"

Zhuang Luoyan followed Concubine Ning's movements, and saw a woman in red walking in the distance, because of the snow, people couldn't see her face clearly.

It's just that the only ones in the harem who are so gorgeously dressed are Zhencai, who has just entered the palace.

"It must be so eye-catching, it must be a rare talent." Xu Zhaorong sighed softly, "The safflower in the snow cannot be more conspicuous."

Sometimes the words of this elegant person are even more vicious, Zhuang Luoyan looked back, but in the harem dressed so flamboyantly, only Zhencai has eyebrows.

Zhen Cairen did not expect that there would be several high-ranking concubines drinking tea in the pavilion to enjoy the snow, and hurriedly knelt outside the pavilion to pay their respects, the cold snow hurt their knees.

"Precious people don't need to be polite, it's snowing outside, come to the pavilion to warm up," Concubine Xiangui said, and Zhuang Luoyan and the others were naturally noncommittal;

Xu Zhaorong took a special look at Zhuang Luorou, after all, the former personal court lady was killed by the emperor because of the taboo of Zhuang Luorou's name. This matter of violating the name of the master can be big or small, if the rightful master does not pursue it, it is not a big deal, and if it is pursued, killing him is not too much.

This Zhuang Luoyan didn't show her kindness on the surface, but the emperor gave her a prestige on her behalf. I don't know whether it is bad luck for the court lady or Zhuang Luoyan's luck.

When Zhencai came to the pavilion, she didn't dare to look at Zhuang Luorou, who was dressed in snow-colored fox fur. The former palace maid next to her was executed by the emperor for violating this taboo. Dissatisfied with life.

Zhuang Luoyan didn't want to mention the dead court lady, so naturally she wouldn't make a fuss about it, and when Zhencai entered the pavilion, she didn't say anything, and let her stand in the corner.

"Where did the talented people come from?" Xu Zhaorong asked lazily.

"Back to Xu Zhaorong, concubine Yangui likes the plum blossoms in the ximei garden, so I asked my concubine to pick them for her." Zhen Cairen answered carefully, apparently the lesson from the previous time made her keep a low profile, but unfortunately she was not smart enough.

Xu Zhaorong glanced at the red dress on her body, and raised her eyebrows, "The yellow plums in this Ximei Garden do have a bit of flavor." The Ximei Garden is far away from Linyuexuan, and this Xue Zhenyao can make things difficult for others.

Concubine Xian nodded, "The plum blossoms in the Ximei Garden are praised even by the emperor. It's a pity that Zhao Xianrong didn't go to see them these days."

Zhuang Luoyan smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don't laugh at my concubines. I know which plum blossom cake is delicious, but I don't know which plum blossom is more beautiful."

Concubine Ning laughed when she heard the words, "It can be seen that the emperor said that you love food, it is not without reason."

Concubine Xiangui nodded, "That's true." If this one doesn't taste good, the baby in her stomach may not necessarily fall out. People in the harem who can't control their delicious mouths are as terrible as their mouths that can't control their words.

Zhen Cairen saw several people sitting on the stone pier with thick cushions, drinking hot tea and teasing each other, while she stood in the corner like a slave, she couldn't help but feel an indescribable resentment in her heart. It's not better than myself, but it's because of a better background than myself that it's today's glory.

Anyone in this harem can make her bow her head, and anyone can make her tremble with fear. She clearly has an appearance that is not inferior to others, but why should she be inferior to these people? She is not reconciled!

Zhuang Luoyan paid attention to Zhencairen's face in the corner, she understood this sense of status gap in her heart, it's just that this is a harem, so what if she just doesn't want to be reconciled.

What's more, this person's court lady was killed because of herself. This kind of slap in the face is not a trivial matter. If she gets up, it will not be of any benefit to him. She didn't want to let this person climb to a high place and fight against herself.

Women in the harem still have to be ruthless to others.

Just thinking about it, I saw a few eunuchs hurrying towards this side. When I saw them, I greeted them honestly, and then said: "Masters, the empress asked the servants to invite talented people to Jingyang Palace for a visit. Syria."

Concubine Xian asked curiously, "Is there something wrong?"

The leading eunuch said, "If the masters have time, they can go together."

Zhuang Luoyan glanced at Zhen Cairen, what is related to Zhen Cairen?
