Chapter 20 Taunt
Just as she was thinking, Yuyao didn't expect that the first person to trouble her would be this concubine Xi who had a little bit of an eye above her head.

"I heard that a younger sister who just entered the palace was served by the emperor yesterday, who is the newcomer!" As soon as he sat down, Niu Gulu seemed to lose sight of the only stranger in the main hall, Yuyao, and focused on playing with her. Putting on his nails, he asked lightly.

"It's a concubine." Yuyao clasped the handkerchief tightly, took a small step forward with her head down, and replied in a low voice.

Only then did Concubine Xi Niu Gulu's slowly look up and down Yuyao, feeling that the other party's temperament was very dazzling.Immediately, he looked at the other person's face, saw that he was wearing heavy makeup and thick powder, and thought that he must have been unfavored last night, specially to cover up his unsightly complexion.

Thinking of this, Concubine Xi's face brightened a bit, and then she saw that the other party lowered her head and squeezed the veil tightly so she didn't dare to look at her, and she just answered in a low voice, trembling a little, presumably she was a little timid.

This is not the case for Nian Shi, Nian Shi is standing in front of them, his waist is straightened, and he is much more confident.

So, at first, Yuyao felt that the other party's gaze was disgusting.But gradually, she felt that her gaze became condescending and disdainful.

"You are the Guarjia clan! Tsk, I thought it was another Nian clan, ha ha!"

Yu Yao could hear the mocking tone.

She pursed her lips tightly, still lowered her head, and replied nana: "Concubine, where is the concubine, where, where can I compare with the noble concubine Dunsu, the concubine Xi loves you."

Concubine Xi sneered, "You do have self-knowledge!"

When he opened his mouth to continue to say something, the eunuch's voice came: "The empress is here!"

Concubine Xi Niu Colu frowned, with a rather unwilling expression on her face.She slowly got up halfway, with her butt still slightly touching the seat, to welcome the queen who came.

Yuyao had heard Bihe talk about Concubine Xi's attitude towards the Empress, and just now she took a sneak peek at Concubine Xi, no, Concubine Xi's perfunctory and unwilling attitude happened to be caught by Yuyao.

"Tsk, isn't this concubine Xi a little swollen too much! Besides, half sitting up and half sitting, it's better to just stand up and feel more comfortable!" I had a bad impression of Concubine Xi in my heart, but then I felt emotional again : "Who made this lucky, there is a grown up and favored prince here."

Therefore, she still cannot have any conflicts with this Concubine Xi, after all, she will be the Empress Dowager in the future.

Even if she is targeted, she has to endure it, and she has to give the other party a sense of no threat. It is best to rely on this person.

Of course, even if you want to seek refuge with Concubine Xi, you can't offend the queen.

As for Concubine Xi and the Empress, there was nothing she could do, but for a newcomer to the palace, who had no foundation, if he offended the Empress, it would be the end of the game.

I still think about being a concubine in the future, let's dream!
Yuyao, who had already planned in her mind not to offend, respectfully followed all the concubines in the harem to pay her respects after the queen was seated.

"The concubine sees the Empress Empress, Empress Empress Jin An!"

"Excuse me!" said the graceful queen with a gentle attitude.

With such a simple comparison, Yuyao felt that this empress gave her a much better feeling than that concubine Niu Colu.

Empress Ulanara didn't know what Yuyao was muttering in her heart at the moment. After she glanced at Yuyao inadvertently, she put her eyes on Concubine Qi.

"Is sister Li better?"

Qi Concubine Li's face looked distressed, and said: "Thank you, Empress, for your concern, my concubine's health has improved, so, while the new younger sister is paying her respects, I will also come to see her and say hello to her."

"Pfft!"

"What is Sister Niu Colu laughing at?" Empress Wulanara looked at Concubine Xi with a calm expression, and asked indifferently.

Concubine Xi didn't even look at the queen who was interrogating her, she still played with her nails, and said mockingly: "Sister Li is still in the mood to come to Kunning Palace to join in the fun, hehe, if I were your sister, I'm afraid you'd be ashamed to go out. "

Even though Concubine Xi didn't mention San Age Hongshi in her words, everyone present could hear what she meant.

After all, the third elder brother Hongshi was rejected by the emperor and adopted out.That was the eldest son of the emperor's three surviving princes, but it turned out to be the case.

Qi Concubine Li Shi and the third elder brother Hongshi have become a joke in the former court and the harem.

Concubine Qi Li's face turned pale, and her body shook a little.

Her lips were trembling, and according to her original temperament, she would definitely go back first.

But, no, her Hongshi has already been rejected by the emperor, and she is old and decrepit, so she is not favored by the emperor, and has no ability to plead with the emperor.

In order for Hongshi to live a better life, the only ones in the palace who can help her are the Queen, Concubine Xi, and the fourth elder brother Hongli.

Therefore, for the sake of Hongshi, no matter how much she suffers from Concubine Xi, she has to endure it.

Even if Concubine Xi refuses to intercede, she can't make the other party hate her even more, and thus make things worse for her Hong Shi.

Therefore, Li Shi muttered for a long time, but didn't say a word.

It's all for the children!
It inevitably reminded the empress of her deceased child Honghui, and the empress felt a little sad when she saw this.

When Mrs. Li was young, although she was jealous of her being favored and having three sons and one daughter in succession, in fact, there was no life-and-death conflict between them.

The death of elder brother Hong Hui has nothing to do with Li Shi.

And the deaths of several of Li's children had nothing to do with her.

It's just some conflicts between women. Now that I think about it, they have never been taken into consideration by the emperor. Therefore, jealousy or something, I think it's a bit funny when I think about it.

Moreover, Li Shi's current experience made her feel sympathetic, and the queen immediately changed the topic aloud.

"Okay, the main purpose today is to greet the newcomers, don't say anything else." After speaking, the queen turned her gaze to Yuyao, "Sister, you are the newly promoted Guerjia family, right?"

Yuyao lowered her head, took a step forward, bowed her knees and said: "The concubine is the Guerjia family."

"Excuse me, I hope that my sister will serve the emperor well in the future and spread the branches and leaves for the royal family."

Yuyao's heart skipped a beat when she heard the queen's words, and she had an ominous premonition.

However, she still continued to play a timid character, lowered her head and whispered: "The concubine listens to the empress, and must serve the emperor well."

As for the second half of the sentence, inexplicably, Yuyao felt that it was better for her not to answer this question.

However, she still felt chills from the gaze from Concubine Xi Niu Gulu's direction.

Branches and leaves? !

Niu Gulu's abruptly broke a nail cover. The emperor does not know how long he can live. If he lives as long as the first emperor, then the advantage of Hongli's age will be gone. After all, the newborn elder brother has also grown up. Competing with Hongli is like the fourteenth elder brother of the first emperor and the current emperor.

Therefore, the emperor already has three sons, so there is no need to spread branches and leaves!
The first queen, no, should be close to Niu Gulu's family, such as Concubine Qi, Concubine Yu, etc., also noticed that something was wrong with Niu Gulu's family.

Queen Ulanara squinted her eyes, looking at Niu Gulu and Yuyao thoughtfully.

Even though Niu Gulushi was a little swollen, his brain was still there.

Therefore, when even realizing that her actions revealed her attitude, her complexion changed, and she forced a reason to cover up the reason why she broke the nail cover.

"I heard Sister Guerjia said that she would take good care of the emperor, but she didn't answer to help the emperor spread the branches and leaves. Then I remembered the rumors this morning. I was a little surprised that the rumors were true. No, I was so shocked that my nails broke off. broken."

hehe!Whoever believes this is stupid!

Even if everyone didn't believe Concubine Xi's words, no one came to refute her.

What's more, in order to please Concubine Xi, some concubines rushed to help Concubine Xi to mock Yuyao.

"Yo, Sister Concubine Xi heard about it, and my concubine also heard about it. The emperor asked Sister Guerjia to play the zither for him last night, and fell asleep."

"It turned out to be true! Without the emperor's favor, how could you spread the leaves for the emperor. No wonder Sister Guerjia is so self-aware that she didn't respond to the queen's request to spread the leaves for the emperor."

Yuyao lowered her head lower and lower, as if she was saddened by the blow and humiliated by being ridiculed.

"Tsk, Sister Guerjia, your powder is so thick, could it be that you didn't fall asleep last night, you were worried all night, and your complexion was not good."

"Hehe, sister Guerjia, don't think too much, the days are still long, you wait patiently, one day the emperor will favor you."
