The Virtuous Concubine of the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 80 The Talented Gentleman (2)

"Although you always act cold, in fact, once you identify someone, you will treat her in every possible way, at any cost. You have never changed this. This is kindness, but it is also naive." Xida Slowly speaking one sentence at a time, like a brother teaching his own sister with earnestness and earnestness.

Jiao Rong pursed her lips, her expression a bit complicated.Xida is naturally the person who understands her best. She can disassemble her personality bit by bit to see clearly. She lowered her eyes guiltyly, blinked her eyelashes twice, and said stiffly: "What can I do, what can I do? A small court lady is naturally no match for the emperor's concubines, if she doesn't cause some serious trouble, how can she be treated as a serious matter by the emperor."

Fulu didn't like to hear these words, he snorted lightly at the side, stretched out his hand and nodded: "You just said that you look down on us, the next time something like this happens, you will find us as soon as possible Let's discuss it, with our cleverness, the method we can come up with will definitely be a thousand times better than your ghost methods."

Yizhu bit the corner of his mouth, nodded forcefully, and said something: "The words are not harsh."

Jiaorong's eyes turned over these three people one by one, and finally sighed, frowned, walked to the wooden chair beside Fulu and sat down, and said angrily: "Oh, are you annoying? Why do you use me?" Amma's tone speaks to me..."

Xida knew that Jiaorong's reaction was just listening, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, but it was only for a moment, because in the next second, Fulu said grinningly: "Furthermore, As long as it happens to you, the emperor will naturally take it seriously, and you are too unconfident in your own charm."

Jiaorong looked at Fulu without knowing why, with a strange expression on her face: "What do you mean by that?"

Fulu raised his eyebrows in an air, and his chin almost went up to the sky, "You don't know that, you are now the sweet potato in the harem, and the slaves who go out from now on will respect you Say hello."

Jiao Rong still looked strange, and asked, "Why?"

Fulu snorted, looked at Jiaorong's face, and joked: "Naturally, it's because you are so charming. The emperor is interested in you, but now everyone in the harem knows it. No one should treat you as the little girl in the future." The master looks at it."

Fu Lu was a very nervous person, and when he said this, he didn't notice at all that Xida's face beside him had already darkened to the same color as the night.

Yizhu didn't notice this either, and smiled at Jiaorong and agreed: "Yes, the emperor has always been partial to Jiaorong's sister's affairs, and now the emperor doesn't want to cover it up at all, so he directly told everyone that he was wrong. My sister has selfish intentions."

Hearing what the two said, Jiaorong looked puzzled: "Is this what the emperor said?"

"Yes." Fu Lu raised his eyebrows and said with a teasing smile: "How about it, are you happy? As long as you say a word, you can immediately become the young master of the inner court."

Who knew that Jiao Rong's small face instantly wrinkled like a steamed bun, and she said directly without any scruples, "Is he full?"

Hearing this, Fu Lu's expression froze, thinking that he had heard wrong, he looked at Jiaorong in disbelief, and his voice became a little louder: "I'll go, big sister, you don't want to? This is your success Opportunity! I'm still waiting for you to be the exclusive royal cook in the small kitchen of your palace after you become the young master, so how proud I will be when I go out in front of other royal chefs!"

Yizhu seemed to be used to echoing Fulu's words, so he followed up and said at this time: "Yes, sister, don't worry, the concubine Yi is not angry because you are getting close to the emperor, she only hopes that you can marry the one you love. people."

"Who wants to get close to him..." Jiao Rong muttered this sentence in disgust, her face was very stinky, her eyes turned to Xida's side coldly, and she said angrily: "You are also going to persuade me to do it The emperor's concubine?"

Hearing this, Xida gave a rare sneer. At this time, his expression was something Jiao Rong had never seen on Xida's face. He raised his eyebrows slightly, and said plainly: "I You are the clearest about what's on your mind, and if everyone persuades you to go, I won't let you go."

Jiao Rong panicked for a while when she heard this, she knew that she had asked something she shouldn't have asked, she quickly looked away, swallowed, and whispered: "Don't mention this matter anymore, I have already told the emperor I have said many times, I will never marry into the harem, I just want to be a good wife and mother of ordinary people, and I don't want to be shackled by the Forbidden City."

This remark was beyond the expectation of all the people present. The three of them looked at each other, and Fu Lu awkwardly swept his nose with his fingers, "Then... okay, anyway, my cooking is so bad now, here you go." There is no difference between being a chef and being poisoned...haha..."

Jiaorong frowned speechlessly, she really couldn't understand more and more, how could the emperor fall in love with her?Which of the four words "she" and "virtuous and virtuous" can be trusted?Could it be that the emperor likes the feeling of being bullied by her?Wouldn't it be better to find a courtier with a weird temper and a desire to usurp the throne?

"I won't enter this palace, and the emperor doesn't really treat me sincerely, he's just looking for novelty, I can clearly see that." Jiao Rong had a cold expression on his face, showing great reluctance.

Fulu and Yizhu both lowered their heads when they heard this, feeling embarrassed by what they just said, while Xida stood aside, her face gradually getting better.

On the second morning, the emperor came to Chengqian Palace. At this moment, Jiaorong was dressing up Concubine Yi. Xu Shi always watched from the sidelines when she was in Yanxi Palace. Then I drew the eyebrows for Concubine Yi.

"I originally heard the noble concubine say that Concubine Yi seldom dresses up on weekdays. I was thinking of recruiting a few maidservants who can do makeup from other palaces. I didn't expect Chengqian Palace to be considered dexterous now." The emperor walked in with his hands behind his back. After entering the hall, his tone was as calm as ever, and it was difficult for people to hear his emotions.

Hearing the sound, Jiaorong's fingers snapped, Concubine Yi looked at the emperor, and hurriedly stood up from the round stool, nodding her head and said: "My concubine pays my respects to the emperor."

Jiaorong turned her head and glanced at the emperor, probably because of the conversation of several people last night, when Jiaorong saw the emperor now, she couldn't make herself show any respect at all, she even forgot to greet the emperor, she was just so blunt He stared intently at the emperor's eyes, as if looking at an enemy.

The emperor ignored Jiaorong's resentful eyes, and said softly to Concubine Yi: "I heard that Concubine Yi is learning calligraphy these days, I wonder if you are interested in learning a few strokes from me?"

Hearing this, Concubine Yi was taken aback for a moment, and then a light flashed in her eyes, "Is what the emperor said true?"
