Self-cultivation of the noble concubine who eats melons

Chapter 498 Chapter 499: The real test begins

In the past, the war between the two countries was tense, with victory and defeat possible. Since Feng Yi killed corrupt officials in front of the battle, it has greatly boosted morale. Food and ammunition from the Ministry of Revenue have arrived, and reinforcements from the Ministry of War have been put in place. The war with Beiming has advanced very quickly. .

Good news frequently came back to the capital, and now everyone in the harem was looking happy, just waiting for His Majesty to capture Beiming and return to the capital in triumph.

Precisely because of such a joyful and happy atmosphere, this year's draft is no longer as coy and secretive as it was a year ago, and it has a sense of fanfare.

It seems that I can present my beauty to His Majesty when he returns.

Concubine Shu looked at the imperial concubine with a calm expression as usual. She felt that she was really in a hurry when the emperor was not in a hurry and the eunuch was not. Why was she so anxious?

Song Yunzhao caught Concubine Shu rolling her eyes.

The two looked at each other.

Concubine Shu coughed lightly, and then said: "I am a little sleepy."

"Sister Concubine Shu handles palace affairs and it is indeed very hard."

Concubine Shu: ...

"You're just mocking me here, pretending I can't hear it? I'm really kind-hearted, just pretend..."

The second half of the sentence wasn't very pleasant, so she swallowed it back in time, but who didn't know what the second half of the sentence was?
Song Yunzhao sighed, "I know that Sister Shu Fei has good intentions, but the draft is a major national event. How can I use my hands as a chariot? If the news reaches the previous dynasty, I will be drowned by the censor's remarks."

Concubine Shu said coquettishly, "I don't mean anything else, I'm just a little worried about you."

"With these words from Concubine Shu, I am satisfied. We have known each other for so many years, and we know everything about it. You said that the Queen Mother took Mrs. Gu Enhou into the palace years ago. Now that I think about it, I am afraid that it is just to suppress my arrogance. , remind me, it’s for the draft after the year.” Song Yunzhao said.

Neither An Ling nor An Shutong could make a big splash because of their relationship with the Queen Mother.

Qin Xiyue also fell, and Yun Zhao should have been able to rest easy, but last year another Zhao family appeared, and this Zhao family was an important figure in the second half of the book.

However, she just changed from a daughter to a mother.

In the book, Zhao Ling'e's daughter married Qin Xiyue's crown prince's son and took the position of crown princess.

Now, it is Zhao Ling'e who wants to enter the palace to compete with her.

Song Yunzhao wanted to tell himself that he didn't care, but for some reason, he always felt that he shouldn't ignore this person.

More importantly, the book only has a detailed description of Zhao Ling'e's daughter. Zhao Ling'e is briefly mentioned. She knows nothing about her temperament and temperament, only that she is a smart person and a beauty.

It's just that Yun Zhao couldn't express these worries to Concubine Shu, and there was no way to explain them.

She can't guarantee whether the Zhao family will run for the election. She can only say that the Zhao family did have this intention last year. As for whether they will send someone to the palace this year, it has yet to be determined.

Since he couldn't refuse, Song Yunzhao simply went along with the situation.

This is not the first draft in the palace since she entered the palace. Speaking of which, she has been by the emperor's side for so many years and has given birth to two princes one after another. She has always been the emperor's favorite. I don't know how many people outside want to push her down. Go down.

Anyone would think this way. The imperial concubine gave birth to two sons in a row. Even if they are outstanding in appearance, now several years have passed, how can they compare with the delicate and tender little girl.

In the past few years, His Majesty has devoted himself entirely to state affairs, and the women in the harem have been involved too much with the previous dynasty, so he also has some dislikes, dislikes, and fears in his heart.

Just by looking at the concubine's background, we can tell that His Majesty prefers those from less distinguished families.

However, things are different now. This time, Dachu is sure to win the battle with Beiming. His Majesty's internal and external worries are gone, and he no longer has any worries, so he will naturally focus on the beauty.

Concubine Ming just took advantage of a good opportunity and is smarter, but Your Majesty should be tired of it after so many years, right?
Song Yunzhao knew what others were thinking without having to guess. She called Concubine Zhuang and Concubine Wan over, and the four of them sat down to have a meal together.Concubine Zhuang drank too much and said to Song Yunzhao with tears in her eyes: "If it weren't for the imperial concubine, I wouldn't have the concubine position now. No matter what happens in the future, I will always be on the imperial concubine's side."

The reasons for the collapse of the Wang family back then were very complicated. The left and right sides were involved, and many courtiers in the court followed suit and added insult to injury.

Concubine Zhuang didn't hate Concubine Shu, nor did she hate the imperial concubine. She didn't blame her father for being too aggressive and losing his Sacred Heart. Fortunately, she still had her life saved in the end.

Compared with those families whose nests are overturned without eggs left intact, she has to burn incense and worship Buddha to repay the saint's grace and remember the past.

She thought that would be the case in the palace, but in the end, she returned to the position of Zhuang Concubine because of the imperial concubine.

Concubine Zhuang never told anyone about the joys and sorrows in her heart. Ever since the fall of the Wang family, she greeted everyone she saw with a smile.

Doesn't she feel bad?
However, it was the imperial concubine who sent her on errands, found things to do, diverted her attention, gave her glory and status, and gave her back her lost concubine position.

In her heart, the concubine's kindness could never be repaid in her lifetime.

When Concubine Zhuang cried, Concubine Wan also felt a little melancholy. Her natal family was better off than the Wang family, but it was only a little better.

Concubine Wan was not a person who was good at talking about things. She toasted the concubine with a glass of wine and said, "From now on, I will make more incense recipes for the empress."

Make money for you to spend.

Concubine Shu looked at one of them who was crying to express their loyalty, and one of them was fond of his skills. Then she looked at herself, and she fell silent.

Song Yunzhao was overjoyed, he was really happy today.

If word got out that she could have such a relationship with the emperor's concubine, who would believe it?
Originally, they were supposed to be love rivals, fighting to the death.

The result became like this.

In fact, the most important reason for getting to this point is that the three concubines all know that the emperor is jealous of their family, so it doesn't matter whether they are beautiful, virtuous or talented.

From the moment they were sent to the palace by their family, they had already touched His Majesty's pain points and destined their future in the harem.

If it’s not Song Yunzhao, it could be Li Yunzhao, Zhang Yunzhao, or some other Yunzhao.

It was because of thinking clearly that I realized that there was no conflict of interest between them and the imperial concubine. Some of it had always been the Sacred Heart's precautions and displeasure.

Thinking back now, when they first entered the palace, they were also the darlings of the family, and they had fantasized about being liked by His Majesty, giving birth to their own children, and staying together for a lifetime.

But they later understood that this was destined to be impossible since they entered the palace.

They felt bitter, uncomfortable, and unwilling to give up, so they made things difficult for Song Yunzhao several times after she entered the palace, trying to compete with her.

Now that I think about it, it’s really a joke. This is all His Majesty’s intention. What does it have to do with her?

Several people were very drunk, and all of them were helped back.

Yun Zhao was also a little drunk, and pictures kept flashing through his mind, from his past life, from this life, good, bad, happy, sad...

She knew that Feng Yi completely controlled the power of the government, and the personal battle with Bei Ming, the imperial commander, completely shocked the monarch's power into the hearts of the people, and her trough had really begun.

When a man is at his lowest point, he can stay with you forever and have deep love.

But when he can do whatever he wants, take control of the power, and have too many choices, it will be the real test of their relationship over the past few years.
