Chapter 208 Self-Knowledge (Part [-])
Chapter [-]
Coming out of Hanzhang Hall, Concubine Zhen dragged Zhao Xiyue down the jade steps and up the corridor back to her own palace.

Seeing that she was far away from the range of Hanzhang Hall, Zhao Xiyue shook off Concubine Zhen's hand.

Concubine Zhen was also helpless, if she hadn't withdrawn her energy quickly, both mother and daughter would be staggering: "You child, if you don't listen to others, you will be angry!
Now, the older you are, the worse your temper is, it's all because the officials and your highnesses spoil you! "

Zhao Xiyue wasn't really angry with her, she was just depressed: "The concubine mother is too easy to talk to!"

"What do you know."

Concubine Zhen's complexion darkened, she originally wanted to start pulling people away, but after thinking about the moment she was thrown away just now, she knew that she was in a fit of anger at the moment, so she just let it go.

She didn't bother to pull her back, so she took a deep look at her: "Go back to the palace first, let's talk slowly when we get back, if you have any dissatisfaction, just vent it to me, but this is not the place to talk.

The people in the palace looked at it, and you just came out of Hanzhang Hall, and you lost your temper here, what does this mean?
Do you really want the sage to take you to kneel in front of Hanzhang Hall for two hours, so that you can feel better? "

·
Concubine Zhen sat on the Arhat bed, with the boards on three sides removed, and she leaned on a black lacquered three-legged table carved with lotus patterns under her elbows.

Zhao Xiyue refused to sit with her, so she sat on the rose chair in a rage.

Cui Zhu went to wait on her, knowing what happened, after returning to the palace, she brought tea and snacks, then she took a group of servants out, and guarded the porch outside the main hall, not letting anyone approach her , so as not to listen to their mother and daughter talking.

Concubine Zhen took a sip of tea and looked calm.

Zhao Xiyue was still very angry, her cheeks were puffed out, tea was her favorite, and so was cake, she just didn't touch a sip.

Concubine Zhen put down the teacup, looked at her like that, and shook her head blindly: "Why are you angry?"

"What kind of thing is she? I want my concubine to work hard for her!"

"nonsense."

Concubine Zhen reprimanded her in a low voice: "Is this what you should say?"

"Why shouldn't I say it?" Zhao Xiyue asked with a look of displeasure, "She is a noble daughter of an aristocratic family, and the concubine mother is now a formal second-rank concubine with a treasure book and gold seal in her hand. When seeing the concubine mother, it is not an exaggeration to kneel down and do obeisance. Do you want the concubine mother to hold a small birthday banquet for her?
When the saint did this, he clearly wanted to slap his concubine in the face! "

She didn't even call her queen mother anymore, and only called her a saint when she opened her mouth.

Concubine Zhen's heart froze: "Ah Yue, what is my background?"

Zhao Xiyue was stunned for a moment, and those dissatisfied people who were about to yell all the words immediately choked on her lips.

Concubine Zhen shook her head, and said earnestly: "I used to be a palace maid in the Empress Dowager's palace. I fell into the eyes of the Empress Dowager because of my honesty, dedication to my errands, and pretty appearance. Nian was assigned to be a housekeeper for the official family.

Ayue, I was born as a slave, and I have been a master for more than 20 years from a slave to a master.

But in the eyes of noblemen, I'm just an unpopular little thing, do you understand? "

"But mother concubine now..."

"Even if I become a noble concubine, I don't have the qualifications!"

Concubine Zhen frowned, and refused to ask Zhao Xiyue to speak: "Do you really think that a saint is a soft-tempered person who has no means? Ah Yue, there are many things that should have passed in the past 20 years.

It is your blessing and my blessing that you were raised in the Saint's Palace.

People value self-knowledge, and people also have to cherish blessings.

The sage said, after Mrs. Zheng's birthday banquet, I will send them back to Xingyang, what else do you want?
Now that the officials promoted me, they didn't even notify the saint in advance.

Both His Royal Highness King Su and Second Highness look towards you, and they refuse to treat the ladies of the Zheng family differently.

The saint held his breath in his heart.

If her anger is not smooth, our mother and daughter will not have a good life.

You are better. As for me, I have to suffer some hardships, which is inevitable.

Now I'm glad that the sage has become much calmer in the past ten years, not like before.

It's just a birthday party for Mrs. Zheng, what's the big deal?

Then if the sage asked me to take care of something for Mrs. Jiang or Mrs. Pei, would you be so angry? "

Zhao Xiyue retorted without hesitation: "Of course not!"

"Isn't this over?"

Concubine Zhen still shook her head: "Ms. Jiang, Mrs. Pei, they are the same people as Mrs. Zheng's, Ah Yue.

It's your preconceived idea, it's you who don't like the ladies of the Zheng family, that's why you think the sage is humiliating me.

I don't want to take this job either, but I have to.

There is something in the words of the sage, why can't you hear it like a fool?
I have the ability and the ability, and I will definitely be able to do it well.

With a good helper like you by my side, I can't do what I want to do.

Ah Yue, stop going around Hanzhang Hall in the future.

Except for daily morning and evening appointments, there should be no lack of etiquette. At other times, if you can't go, don't go.

After all, you were not born in the womb of a saint, she is not your mother, and she will not really treat you as her own flesh and blood.

Now that a niece has come, the high and the low are immediately distinguished.

The saint sees you as an eyesore, she probably blamed you for my promotion this time.

If it weren't for the official's love for you, what good fruit would there be for you? "

Zhao Xiyue's throat tightened, and she couldn't say anything for a while.

She really didn't know what to say.

Is she sad?
She used to be very good with the saint.

It's like a real mother and daughter.

When she was still young, she lived in Hanzhang Hall, and when the concubine mother went to see her, the sage held her to see the concubine mother together. The three of them were very harmonious and the atmosphere was always good.

Overnight, everything changed.

It's not Zheng Shuangyi's fault, nor Zheng Shuangxue and Zheng Shuangrong's fault.

At the end of the day, the problem is with the sage.

"Auntie."

Zhao Xiyue murmured in a low voice, and suddenly called Concubine Zhen loudly.

Concubine Zhen's eyelids twitched: "You are sad and confused. If you always behave like this, you will inevitably lose your sense of propriety in front of others."

Zhao Xiyue said that she knew: "Aniang has been with the emperor for so many years, not long after the saint married the emperor, Aniang went to the palace to serve, so there is really no other reason for the saint's attitude towards the Zheng family?

Just because it is the home of the saint's mother, so she favors maintenance like this?
Did the emperor really pamper him for decades just because he loves the saint?
A family of two males, who has such honor?
When Pei Guogong was young, he quelled chaos for his father, and now he is still stationed in the bitter cold land of Liaodong for his father in his middle age.

The Zheng family relies on the saint alone? "

Concubine Zhen's face froze for a moment, then she gritted her teeth, and said firmly: "Just because it's the saint's mother clan, and we don't have a beak, you will remember this for the rest of your life, don't touch the saint's head, never! "
