The Virtuous Concubine of the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 92 Full of Glory (2)

After an unknown amount of time, Concubine Yi was so sleepy that she couldn't help yawning.Her eyes slowly closed, and she said to the emperor: "In the final analysis, if the emperor wants to do something, others have no right to interfere. If you need Jiaorong, my concubine will persuade you for you. Other emperors Just watch and do it yourself, don't need to ask your concubine again."

Hearing this, the emperor sighed, and replied with some helplessness: "Then trouble Aifei."

On the second day, Jiaorong got up very early, and after tidying up Chengqian Palace, she began to dress up Concubine Yi.Concubine Yi looked at Jiao Rong standing behind her in the bronze mirror, and recalled what the emperor said yesterday, her complexion gradually became complicated.

Not long after, Concubine Yi turned her head and glanced at Yizhu who was waiting beside her, and said softly, "Yizhu, you go to the House of Internal Affairs to ask for some dark eyebrows for me, I think the color is a little lighter now. .”

"Yes." Yizhu replied respectfully, and left Chengqian Palace not long after.

Jiaorong looked at the eyebrow color she had painted for Concubine Yi in the bronze mirror. She didn't know where it was light for a while, so she lightly raised the corner of her eyebrows, and said lightly: "Your Majesty, it's the snail Dai in the hands of slaves that is not easy to use. Is it? The slave girl didn't think it was very shallow."

Concubine Yi gently shook her head, grabbed Jiaorong's hand beside her, and gently led her around Jiaorong's wrist until she stood beside Concubine Yi.

Jiaorong was careful, seeing Concubine Yi's expression that was not quite right at the moment, she immediately realized that Concubine Yi had sent Yizhu away on purpose, so Jiaorong hurriedly leaned down to get closer to Concubine Yi, and asked seriously: "Your Majesty , Is there a problem?"

Concubine Yi turned her head, looked at Jiao Rong's eyes, which were as charming and cunning as a fox, but were shining with integrity and firmness all the time, and nodded slightly, "I do have something to discuss with you."

Jiaorong looked at Concubine Yi suspiciously, waiting for her to speak, Concubine Yi licked the corners of her lips, hesitated for a long time, and then asked softly: "Do you really want to marry into the royal family at all?"

The moment she heard this, Jiaorong was stunned, her face gradually sank, and she looked at Concubine Yi with a somewhat incredulous expression: "Your Majesty, why would you ask such a question to your servant?"

Facing Jiaorong's questioning, Concubine Yi couldn't help lowering her eyes, and said softly: "I have been thinking about it for many days, and I feel that there are some things that I still need to talk to you about."

"You have never been in the Forbidden City before, and you don't know much about the affairs of the palace. Although your Ama Weiwu and Malfa'esen seem to be the most simple coats of official collars, they never talk about it in front of you. For so many years, the whole Wuya clan has been trying their best to get out of the limitation of dressing."

At this point, Concubine Yi paused for a moment, and her voice was a bit gentle: "You Mafa'esen is old now, but you are still trying your best to improve your status, because the Wuya family is always facing a situation that you have to face. What is admitted is that the men of the future generations will fail in the previous dynasty."

Jiao Rong listened to Concubine Yi explaining to her the trivial matters of her family's previous court sentence by sentence, and the corners of her brows slowly frowned.

Concubine Yi sighed, looked at Jiaorong, and said softly, "Your Ama and Mafa dote on you, so they never mentioned in front of you how difficult it was to fight for an official in the previous dynasty. As far as I know, er Sen has told you many times that he felt ashamed that he couldn't let the family carry out the coat, which made you have to enter the palace and become a palace maid, doing the most low-level work."

"Raising the flag is something that the Wuya clan has been striving for in recent generations. Although you are the only woman in Wuya's generation, you should also make plans for your family. Maybe it is a decision of yours. , it will make your old Mafa Shao work hard for many years." Concubine Yi educated Jiao Rong earnestly, with a loving light like an elder on her face.

To be honest, Concubine Yi has listened to these words. She was loved by Mafa and Ama since she was a child. As a daughter, she has never been able to share anything for them, so she can only watch Mafa. and Ama are busy and worried every day.If it's like Concubine Yi said, one of her decisions can make her do a big thing for the family, so it's not what Jiao Rong wants to do.

But it didn't take long before Jiaorong frowned again, she looked at Concubine Yi, and said coldly: "Your Majesty, if this servant becomes a concubine, it is to compete with you for favor, and this kind of thing will never happen." Do."

Seeing Jiao Rong's stubborn appearance, Concubine Yi shook her head helplessly: "Didn't you always say that you wanted to marry a talented Pian Pian son? Although the emperor is different from ordinary men, he is also the most handsome man in the world after all. A talented person. Now you have such a great opportunity, not only can you help your family, but also marry the person you want, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"

The corners of Jiao Rong's brows frowned even tighter, she clenched her teeth tightly, and her voice became more and more serious: "If I do this, I will be wronged by the empress."

Concubine Yi didn't care at all about this, she just rubbed her delicate wrist twice with her fingers, and then said: "Silly boy, how could this be wronging me, no matter it's your favor It is still my favor, after all, it belongs to our Chengqian Palace, if you can really win the emperor's favor, it will also be a help to me, won't it?"

Yougui had said similar things to Jiaorong before, but what Yougui had said made her understand very deeply that the most important thing that Yougui used her was to use her.But at this time, the almost same words came out of Concubine Yi's mouth, as if they were just here to coax Jiaorong.

Jiao Rong bowed her head and remained silent for a long time, until her own mind was extremely confused, she closed her eyes and said softly: "The servant will think seriously, and I hope that the empress will stop forcing the servant."

Hearing this, Concubine Yi's face gradually calmed down, and she said softly: "Well, that's all I said, and you don't have to do everything according to what I say. But Jiaorong, I'm still the same In a word, you are an older child, the source of life should not come from your own mood."

Jiaorong nodded obediently and sensiblely, knowing that the topic was almost over, she picked up the snail Dai again, and leaned closer to Concubine Yi: "This servant should continue to make up for you."

"En." Concubine Yi responded slightly, and turned to look directly at herself in the bronze mirror again.

In the next few days, apart from dealing with government affairs, the emperor spent most of his time in Chengqian Palace, which made Jiaorong feel strange.What's more, the emperor would do some unnecessary things to her every day when he came here. He gave her food and clothes, which were just good things. It is the kind that can only be used by concubines.
