The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 824 Relieve Your Worry (17)
"You have also seen that last year, when I came to the palace to escape the summer heat, the concubines were full of flowers and flowers. What a lively scene it was? But it was only a short period of time. How many people have turned from beauty to bone, but so what? Without them, The empress dowager will order another draft for the emperor. The old people in the palace are still fragrant, but they have already been promoted, and the new ones will replace the old ones. If you don’t know how to be satisfied, how long will you have to fight with them? Do you want to kill all the emperor's concubines? One day there will be no concubines in the six palaces, and when my hands are covered with blood, I'm afraid it will also be the time when the emperor abandons me. After all, no one likes a woman with a vicious heart."

Jin Xin nodded and said: "Aunt Yunlan often said that only those with a calm and clear mind can go further. Concubine Ning and Empress are the same people, the only difference is that Concubine Ning wants power, and Empress wants power. It's the emperor's heart."

Speaking of Concubine Ning, Qingchen really admired her, "I've never seen such a woman, even though Jun'en is weak, she has the ability to live well, it seems that she is the most suitable for living in this harem people."

The bead curtain slammed softly, and Yun Lan walked in with a slight smile, and said softly: "Your Majesty, when this servant passed by, His Highness was preparing to have a meal. It seemed that he really liked the chicken soup we stewed by ourselves, and he used a lot in one go. He didn't come back until after dinner. His Highness said that it's just a skin injury, so don't worry, Madam, he even invited someone to go hunting in the hunting ground tomorrow."

Qingchen knew that Xiao Jue said this, but he just didn't want to worry himself. Tomorrow, he made an appointment with someone to go hunting in the hunting ground. Who knows if he said this on purpose, just to reassure himself?

Since he said so, Qingchen couldn't bear to expose it, but threw away the embroidery in his hand and said: "It's fine, it's getting late, let me wash up, the emperor may not come to our side tonight..." hesitated After a while, he still said: "Let Xiao Xiangzi not wait until it's too late, just close the palace gate earlier and rest."

Yun Lan knew that she was still looking forward to the emperor's arrival in her heart, so she went out to wash her face, and by the way, she asked Xiao Xiangzi to remain vigilant and leave the door open for the emperor.

The wind blew up in the middle of the night, and the tinkling of the copper bells under the eaves made her sleepless. When she turned over lightly, she felt someone was lying beside her. Qingchen said pleasantly, "Your Majesty..."

She didn't know when he came, but she heard Xiao Jun embrace her and asked: "I don't trust you, I still want to come and have a look, I didn't expect to come too late, you are already asleep, I woke you up ?"

Qingchen snuggled into his generous and warm embrace and said softly: "It wasn't the emperor who woke up the concubine, it was the wind outside that woke up the concubine. Listening to the wind, I'm afraid the sky will change tomorrow."

"After an autumn rain and a cold, I will remember to add more clothes sooner or later." Xiao Jun clamped her feet between her legs, only feeling that those little feet were cold and without any warmth, the emperor said helplessly "As soon as autumn comes, your feet are always so cold. Sometimes when you wake up, I feel that the quilt you are sleeping on is cold. How can this continue? If I come late in the future, I will let Yun Lan Cage a Tang Pozi for you, or add a charcoal basin in the house at night, otherwise, if you go on like this, sooner or later your body will go wrong."

His feet were warmed by his body temperature, and he felt the heat from his body, as if his whole body was much warmer.Nesting in his arms made her feel comfortable and at ease, "I remember when I was a child, the emperor hugged my feet to keep me warm in winter like this. At that time, I always cried because of the cold. Even with such a hot charcoal basin in the room, it still feels cold."

Xiao Jun stretched out her hand to tuck the corner of the quilt behind her, and recalled: "Isn't it? At that time, we didn't have to go out all winter, and we just spent our days idling in the valley. In addition to making tea, we studied recipes every day. Find something to do on your own. The padded clothes I have people make for you are all made of the best fox skins. There is a big charcoal basin burning in the house. Jin Xin and Jinxiu feel hot wearing only small padded jackets, but you still Crying that your feet were cold, at that time you were weak, so I held your feet in my arms to keep you warm. Your kang is also the hottest at night, I am afraid that you will be cold, and I am afraid that the kang will be too hot for you Knowing how to kick the quilt really breaks my heart."

Qingchen chuckled, and said angrily: "The emperor is not a few years older than the concubine, and he talks like raising a child."

"I am six years older than you, but I have understood the hardships of life since I was five years old, so I don't want you to be wronged by me, but no matter how hard I try, sometimes it will make you sad, but Chen'er It's not easy to understand me, and always tolerate me, although I don't say it, but I am very moved."

After a pause, the emperor said again: "This time when the Great Xia envoy came to visit, you have made great achievements through your consideration and experience. Even the Empress Dowager praised you for being smart and decisive when she heard about it. I want to make you a concubine this time, so it's finally justified." ? This time, do you have no reason to reject me?"

Qingchen shook his head and said: "The concubine has no selfish intentions to share the worries of the emperor. Besides, whether the concubine is a concubine or a noble concubine, those are not very important to the concubine. The concubine would rather use that position in exchange for more money from the emperor." Come and see the concubine."

"What nonsense are you talking about? When you were a little nobleman, I often went to see you. It's just that you are heartless and don't understand my painstaking efforts." Xiao Jun's voice gradually became vague, probably because she was really tired. Feeling sleepy, "I'll discuss this with you tomorrow, go to sleep first, if you really don't want it, I won't force it."

She really didn't want it, because she knew very well that the position of the noble concubine was of no benefit to her, and would only bring her endless troubles.

When I was watching TV, I saw that Shunzhi insisted on making Dong E the empress. At that time, I was young and didn't understand the dangers of the court. I only thought that the emperor liked her and it was natural to be named empress. I also felt that the Empress Xiaozhuang was too unreasonable.

At that time, I only vaguely remembered Dong E's forceful words, and asked infinitely sadly, "Does the emperor want to set his concubines on fire?" Although he didn't understand her helplessness and hardships at that time, he still remembered this sentence. Only now did I understand what kind of state of mind that woman was in.

Concubine Ning has been in charge of the Six Palaces for a long time without merit or hard work. If she becomes a noble concubine, where will Concubine Ning's face go?There is hostility from the empress dowager and empress on the top, and jealousy from concubines on the bottom. The title of noble concubine really puts her in a dire situation. Even Concubine Ning, I am afraid that she will never help her again in the future. How can a lifeless person be willing to let others go past him?Wouldn't it be dangerous to be surrounded by enemies at that time, why did she have to make everyone raise their eyebrows because of this idea of ​​honor and favor?
