Chapter 129 Creepy, there is a situation!

Among the harem of the Great Jin Kingdom, there are twelve palaces that are famous and named by the emperor himself—the so-called East and West Twelve Palaces.Apart from the Fengxi Palace where the empresses lived, the Yonghe Palace is the best of the twelve palaces.

In addition to the large area and the splendor of the palace, its geographical location is also extremely advantageous... It is next to the residence of Emperor Yongping——Taiqing Hall, which is the closest.

But, to be honest, in the harem of Nuo Da, Concubine Pei is not considered the most beloved concubine of Emperor Yongping in the palace—Concubine Shen Gui, Guiren Wang, Song Xiaoyi, Duan Xiurong, and the new concubine who entered the palace a few years ago Xu Meiren... These are all the "favored concubines" in the harem who were once favored by Emperor Yongping. Compared with them, although Concubine Pei has the same status, she is the second in the harem... But in terms of the degree of favor, it is really nothing.

She won because of her belly, and she gave birth to the eldest son of the emperor when she entered the palace - the current crown prince.Under the protection of the Empress Dowager Pei, she raised the child safely and made her the crown prince, which made her the invisible mistress of the harem.

Emperor Yongping's direct empress has no children, and she has never given birth to a princess... In fact, she has never conceived at all.A childless queen, a noble concubine with a prince under her knees, especially this noble concubine is still the queen mother's natal family, with the full support of the queen mother... It is conceivable that the status of the queen in the harem has increased over the years.

——No matter what happens, he is just a wealthy idler.

In fact, it’s not okay to be an idler!If it hadn't been for Emperor Yongping not wanting Cheng'en Gongfu to produce a queen...I'm afraid that the nominal mistress in the harem would lose her life even by the Empress Dowager Pei.

Concubine Pei's sacred favor is not strong, but she is backed by two big mountains (the Empress Dowager Pei and the prince), and she holds the seal of the Phoenix herself, assisting the power of the six palaces... Therefore, in the harem, she is still a unique figure.

For such a character, it is naturally extremely easy to recruit a few little girls with no taste or class.The palace servants from Yonghe Palace came to Chuxiu Palace without any thought at all, they found Luo Chuchen and others, and with a word of greeting...they followed them away.

The distance between Chuxiu Palace and Yonghe Palace is not too close, and it takes about half an hour to walk. In addition to Luo's family, they are all young ladies raised by Jiao Jiaoer, and their physical strength is really not very good.The master who usually walks a little farther has to take the bridge... This half hour is fatal, Luo Chuchen is better, her small courtyard in Wan Lanchun belongs to "free range", although she doesn't go out much , but after all, the girl in the market, 'leg power' is still good, but the remaining three Luo Chuwei are unlucky...

After walking down for more than half an hour, not to mention sweating, her legs were sore and heavy, it could almost be said that it was not her own! !
——And the most painful thing is that they still dare not speak out! !
He still had to raise his smiling face and forcefully put on an appearance of 'I'm not tired at all, and I can still walk for an hour'.

Following the palace servants, "half dead" came to the Yonghe Palace, stepped into the main hall, and the palace servant who led the way told the four of them, "Wait, the slaves will tell the empress" and then entered the inner hall.Afterwards, after a while, a court lady and aunt came out to summon the four of them, saying that "the empress is here to invite you".

Following the lady-in-waiting aunt, she walked slowly into the inner hall, raised her head slightly, and saw a noble lady sitting upright.The clothes are luxurious and the head is full of emerald gold, it is really luxurious and dazzling, majestic and majestic.

Not daring to look too much, the four quickly knelt down and said: "The minister has seen the imperial concubine and empress, and the empress is a thousand years old."

"You don't need to be too polite, get up!" The noble lady - Concubine Pei Gui had a gentle face, smiled slightly, and nodded to Luo Chuchen and the others, "Come here, give me a seat." She raised her voice and ordered.

A maid of honor moved here and squatted down, and put it beside Luo Chuchen and the others.

"Thank you ma'am, the courtiers are ashamed." Luo Chuchen and others hurriedly thanked them, and took their seats after some politeness.

Slightly raising his head, he sneaked a peek at Concubine Pei... This was the first time Luo Chuchen had seen this "hero" of Duke Cheng'en's mansion, the support of the Pei family... I saw that Concubine Pei, although she was nearly fifty years old, But it seems that she is only 38 or [-] years old, with extraordinary appearance, glamorous, and indescribable amorous feelings at the corners of her eyebrows and eyes. Even at the age of the beauty's twilight, the charm still remains.

It is conceivable that when she was young, she must have been a stunning beauty not inferior to Luo Chuchen.

On her body was a silver-red imperial concubine's gown, embroidered with large peonies, and a few auspicious clouds outlined in red with silver threads.Nine-hole exquisite jade belt is worn around the waist, and thin pearl tassels hang down on both sides of the jade belt. The lower body is a long leaf skirt with scattered flowers and narcissus in the same color, with a dense row of blue sea water moving images at the hem, and a wide chest. Pale pink brocade wraps the bust.

On the head, the long hair is pulled up and combed into a neat flowing cloud bun, and then she wears a crown of water and smoke, with a begonia pearl flower embedded in it.On the forehead is a tear-shaped pendant with emerald green, white jade pendant on the ear, and white jade bracelet on the wrist, reflecting each other.

It can be said that in terms of beauty alone, today's Concubine Pei Gui is not inferior to Luo Chuchen at all. Even though her age is not dominant, her life of wealth and wealth for many years has made her incomparably outstanding. , being older has its benefits.Luo Chuchen, who is only 17 years old now and can be said to be a young girl, can't compare to the charm of a mature woman like Concubine Pei.

In particular, after listening to Shen Cangyu's words, today Luo Chuchen was only wearing a half-new clothes, with no makeup on at all, and even jewelry, he just wore a silver butterfly hairpin casually, and then he took off his long hair and combed it. Qi Liuhaier...

This attire, that whole body beauty, has gone for a while.Therefore, Luo Chuchen, who had never lost face to face since his revival, was faintly suppressed in front of Concubine Pei in this Palace of Eternal Harmony! !

"There are talents from generation to generation!! What kind of vision does Emperor Yongping have??" Looking at Concubine Pei Gui, Luo Chuchen clicked his tongue, saying that she knew that Concubine Pei was not very favored by Emperor Yongping in the palace, but She never expected that Concubine Pei Gui is so beautiful! !Not even favored! ! !

By the way, what is the painting style of Emperor Yongping?Doesn't he have eyes?Such a beautiful woman, not pampering her... is simply reckless! !Are you blind?
Thinking of the talent show, they have seen these show girls from afar. It is said that they are the concubines who have been favored by Emperor Yongping—Duan Xiurong and Concubine Shen Gui—the looks, of course, cannot be said to be beautiful, but at least they are far worse than Concubine Pei. ...Luo Chuchen couldn't help but click his tongue, thinking: It seems that there is no future for being a harem, and Emperor Yongping has a problem with his aesthetics! !

Hearing what Shen Cangyu said, he didn't want to have anything to do with the crown prince or King Chang'an.When he was in Yonghe Palace, Luo Chuchen was very 'honest and obedient', bowed his head and remained silent, and would not answer unless people asked her.She just listens to what people say... There are four girls in the Luo family, and her identity is not outstanding. Although she is still very beautiful, there is always a strange comparison between beautiful women and beautiful women.Since she didn't speak or show her head, Concubine Pei naturally had no reason to condescend to answer her.

In fact, Concubine Pei's main meeting partner today is her pre-appointed youngest daughter-in-law - Luo Chuwei.

"Fen'er, this girl, hasn't been in the palace for a while. I really miss her. It's just a matter of drafting. I'm acting as the director on behalf of the empress. It makes people gossip." Holding Luo Chufen, Pei Guifei smiled very sincerely, she couldn't tell that she was actually very disgusted in her heart, she just turned her head and smiled and said to Luo Chuwei: "I only have one son, the crown prince. I don't have a girl under my knees, this child Fen'er has always been loved by me very much, so I doted on her a little wayward, I am really afraid that she will cause trouble in the palace, you can persuade her if you don't think about it."

This is what Luo Chufen fought against the nanny in charge, but Luo Chuwei stopped it.

"Responding to the words of the imperial concubine, as Fen'er's elder sister, it is the duty of the minister to help her, and I dare not be praised by the empress." Luo Chuwei hurriedly got up and replied cautiously.Trying not to offend Concubine Pei Gui.

In other words, it turned out that Luo Chuwei only listed the matter of entering the East Palace as a concubine as a side concubine as a candidate. If possible, she actually still wanted to be a regular wife!After all, the side concubine is a concubine, so to put it bluntly, she is also a concubine, even if she may become a figure like Concubine Pei in the future... But in Luo Chuwei's outlook on life, being a wife is still her first choice.

Of course, it is the first choice with conditions.

There are not many women in this draft.This also shows from the side that in this class, there are very few aristocratic men of the right age who are so distinguished that they need to be married directly by Emperor Yongping.Well, actually, not just very little, but very little.

In addition to the crown prince who needs a side concubine and the king of Chang'an who needs a concubine, the two side concubines of the second prince and the third prince have already been filled up.Because the Shen family's royal family is not full of offspring, the age of the few princes getting married is not very old, and basically the main wife enters the door, and Emperor Yongping will give it to the side when he turns around, and give it to the two as soon as he is still... Several princes , including King Chang'an, there is no place in the backyard anymore.

This time the crown prince was able to get a side concubine because someone 'died of illness'.

The prince has no hope, seeing that the concubines are all healthy, and the clan... Except for the son of King Rong, who is feared by Emperor Yongping, who needs a wife, there is only one old county king who needs a successor...

The old county king is in his forties, his son is older than Luo Chuwei, and, most importantly, he is still an idle county king with no power at all! !
As for Rong Wang's son...Although he is of the same age and looks outstanding, he is also very popular in the court recently... But Luo Chuwei always remembers that her father once said that Rong Wang is a trouble in Emperor Yongping's heart, and he will be 'disposed' one day... …

Although what her father said may not be accurate, since there is a possibility, Luo Chuwei naturally wants to avoid the risk.

There is no suitable candidate... Then the spare tire will be on the main table. After the "cruel" reality, the position of the prince and side concubine has rapidly increased in importance to Luo Chuwei, and has long become her main goal.In particular, although she knew that with Concubine Pei's character, it was impossible to choose Luo Chufen... But seeing Concubine Pei hugging Luo Chufen, her face was full of kindness, and she said 'son' and 'flesh' as ​​if she really loved her look like...

Luo Chuwei still couldn't help being very nervous.When answering Concubine Pei's question, he also said every word, and after careful consideration for a long time, he didn't dare to say a word.

"I only know that you have always been very talented and famous, but you are still a good sister." Concubine Pei looked carefully at Luo Chuwei for a few times, nodded, and a trace of satisfaction flashed in her eyes.

Although she pretends too much and is a bit hypocritical... But she is famous in the capital and can deal with her difficult sister... The son is just a side concubine, so it is considered good if he has this ability!

Facing Luo Chuwei, Concubine Pei said: She is quite satisfied with what she inspected.

In fact, on the first day Luo Chuwei entered the palace, Concubine Pei took her eyes on her, and if she didn't invite her right away, she just wanted to test her patience.

After she perfectly 'solved' Luo Chufen and prevented her from making a fuss and ruining the Luo family's daughter's reputation, Concubine Pei would be even more satisfied with her!

"Good boy, come to Bengong and let Bengong take a good look at you." Although she was only a side concubine, she was chosen for her own son. Of course, the higher the status, the more capable the better.

As the legitimate daughter of the Marquis with real power and the title of the most talented woman in the capital, plus Luo Chuwei's own "quality" is quite good, Concubine Pei's attitude towards her is extremely gentle.The two of you talked to each other, and within a short while, they became as close as a mother and daughter, even Luo Chufen couldn't compare!

Of the four Luo girls who were recruited into the Yonghe Palace, Luo Chufen had the status advantage, and Luo Chuwei was the latecomer, chatting with Concubine Pei was in full swing.Luo Chuwei is a talented learner, with witty remarks, teasing Concubine Pei, and still chatting, paying attention to Luo Chufen all the time, helping to explain or make up for her when she says something wrong or wants to get angry. Interrupted, it was very lively...

Such a decent performance made Concubine Pei look more and more satisfied with Luo Chuwei's eyes, showing a little kindness, really like looking at her daughter-in-law!

These two relied on their innate advantages to occupy all the attention of Concubine Pei Gui... The remaining Luo Chuchen and Luo Chujing sat in the corner as quietly as chickens, no one paid attention to them, and neither of them spoke, just being honest. Sitting there, drinking tea and eating snacks, and 'listening' silently by the way.

Luo Chuchen had been told early on and was unwilling to show off, while Luo Chujing was born with such a temperament that no one would take care of her, so she didn't feel embarrassed at all.

As if they hit it off right away, those talkatives became more and more happy in the Yonghe Palace, and with the presence of the audience, their desire to speak increased. They summoned them from early morning until near noon. The 'talking' nature remains undiminished.

"My maidservant will report back to your empress..." While they were chatting happily, outside, a court lady lifted the curtain to come in and kneeled and kowtowed, and said in her mouth: "His Royal Highness, please see me."

"Oh, my son is here?" Concubine Pei frowned slightly, as if in surprise, "How could he... Oh, yes, I asked him to come for lunch yesterday!" She smiled and shook her head, He laughed at himself to Luo Chuwei and the others: "You can't do it when you're old, and you can't remember well. You just gave me an order yesterday, but I forgot it early this morning."

"Where did the empress say that you are as young and prosperous as you are, and you are really like twenty people... To say something offensive, she looks like the elder sister of the minister. If you say you are old, what will the minister do?" Yes!" On the side, Luo Chuwei hastily smiled and expressed his sincerity.

"Wei'er, you are really good at talking." But there is no one who doesn't like to be flattered by others. Concubine Pei smiled so blindly that she couldn't see her eyes, and after annoying Luo Chuwei, she waved her hand and said to the maid who reported the letter: "Go Please come in, the prince, there are no outsiders in this room, they are all his cousins, it's nothing to see."

Luo Chufen's biological mother, Mrs. Pei, is the concubine's sister of Concubine Pei. To be honest, Luo Chufen is still the prince's cousin, and Luo Chuwei and the others are all from the Luo surname... To put it far-fetchedly, they are the same as the prince. It's a relative.

"Your servant obeys." The maid kowtowed, got up and exited the door of the inner bedroom.After a while, the prince who was wearing a bright yellow five-clawed golden dragon prince's suit and a purple jade crown stepped in.

"Mother and concubine are well." After entering the door, the crown prince greeted Concubine Pei Gui first.

"My son doesn't need to be too polite. I'll meet your cousins ​​soon..." Concubine Pei hurriedly got up, helped her son up with her own hands, and said with a smile: "Look, some cousins ​​of your Luo family are here. Fen'er, are you early?" I know her, this is Wei'er..." Pointing at Luo Chuwei, Concubine Pei smiled and introduced her to her son.

——This is the youngest daughter-in-law in the future, of course I have to introduce it to my son and let him see if he is satisfied.

"You cousins ​​are polite." The prince looked sideways and nodded to the girls of the Luo family.

His attitude was not very polite, and his tone was not very enthusiastic, but it was supplemented by his identity - the Prince of Jin! !With only a slight smile, the girls of the Luo family, including Luo Chuchen, were all a little excited!
That's the prince, the second in command of the Great Jin Dynasty, alive and panting! !
"The courtiers pay homage to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." The four girls were all excited, but they did not forget the rules. They immediately got up and knelt down to salute.

"You are the mother's concubine's guests and relatives, so let's just talk about family etiquette." The prince waved his hand and said politely: "There is no need to salute, just sit aside."

"No." The four girls looked at me and you, their excited eyes rolling around.When I sat down, I didn't dare to sit down, but I only sat on one-third of the chair, and I felt like I could stand up at any time.

The prince came to Yonghe Palace to pay his respects to Concubine Pei and to have lunch with Concubine Pei.Logically speaking, when he came, Luo Chuchen and the others should leave, but Concubine Pei seemed to want her son to get along with the future 'little daughter-in-law' more, so she ordered the four Luo girls to stay together for dinner.

It was barely concealed, and the other three were used as Luo Chuwei's cover.

When eating, apart from currying favor with Concubine Pei, Luo Chuwei really paid attention to the crown prince all the time, observing his every word, every action, every move, even he could see clearly whether he likes to use a spoon or chopsticks when eating... …

Then, she found out...

The situation of the prince...is a bit strange! !

As an adult man, he was accompanied by four beautiful girls... He didn't look at the charming Luo Chufen, nor at the heavenly-looking Luo Chuchen, and he didn't even take a look at the introvert. Luo Chuwei, his future daughter-in-law...

Instead, Luo Chujing, who has been peeping openly and secretly, whose height does not reach his chest, is immature, and looks as green as an eleven or two-year-old child...

And that look... Seriously, no matter how you look at it, it's not right! !
——There is a breath, which makes people feel creepy.
