hot little concubine

Chapter 25: The Art of Balance
Speaking of it, her status is actually almost the same as that of Concubine Gu Gui, but one is the emperor's chief concubine, and the other is the prince's chief concubine, and she is just a man.

Kowtowing his head in a circle, he was briefly reprimanded by the three elders, and received three valuable things.But it's worth the money, it's useless.

Although Ning Yanxue was drooling at the pile of gadgets, it was limited to this. If the things rewarded by the emperor's empress dowager were for ordinary families, they would be offered as tributes. Although Ning Yanxue married into the palace, although she didn't have to make offerings, she could It must be kept in a private treasury, and it cannot be exchanged for silver.

Seeing that she couldn't eat, Ning Yanxue expressed that she was aggrieved.

After delivering the presents, the emperor and Murong Jinxi went to Yidianzhai for business, leaving a bunch of women around Ning Yanxue, and Ning Yanxue would tell jokes like two frogs eating peas from time to time to entertain everyone.Just as he was laughing happily, a palace maid came in to report that Princess An had arrived.

Ning Yanxue seldom had contact with the clan, and when she was wondering whether Princess Suian was the emperor's aunt, sister, or daughter, the court lady brought in a tall woman with slender shoulders and thin waist.The woman was dressed in a splendid attire, as if she was attending some kind of celebration. When she saw Ning Yanxue from a distance, her eyes flashed fiercely, and she immediately bowed to the queen mother and all the ladies with a smile on her face: "Lingge has seen the queen mother and all the sisters-in-law."

"You girl, get up quickly, you have not come here before, how do you know that your fifth elder brother brought his wife into the palace to listen to the letter, but it is later than usual."

A trace of injury flashed across Murong Linge's eyes, although it was only for a moment, but I don't know how long it has been since seeing Ning Yanxue's fierceness. The head of the spiritual song: "Your head, I told you a long time ago that you two imperial brothers love you the most, but you have to feel that you are an outsider. You are the Buddha star of the Ai family, that is, the Ai family. Even the two princes of yours are no match for you."

"The queen mother is happy to find spiritual songs again."

When Murong Linge came, he diverted all his attention from Ning Yanxue, and even blinked at Ning Yanxue from time to time.

Ning Yanxue raised her head slightly, and looked at the woman who was showing her might to her. This woman was the one she met at the gate of the palace, but she was not.

If you say yes, it’s because you’re the same person, but if you say no, you just look at the dress, and then look at your simple powder-based smoked dress. Although it’s not cheap, it’s really worse than the princess’s dress, isn’t it 01:30 Point, if it wasn't for his own imposing manner, he would be outmatched just by standing there.

Murong Linge was obviously here to dissuade Ning Yanxue, flirting with the queen mother for a while, and then turned around the queen mother, until the maid came to inform the meal time, and then said embarrassingly to the queen and noble concubines, "I'm really sorry to bother you sisters-in-law."

The daughters-in-law, represented by the empress, smiled, and Concubine Gu said that it was a great honor to listen to Princess Linge talk about Buddhism with the Queen Mother, and hoped that Princess Linge would invite everyone to come and listen to the lecture on Buddhism again in the future.Ning Yanxue could barely hold back her laughter, she didn't make a move herself, and most of them were the ones who did.

In the Eastern Emperor Kingdom, only those who want to exchange Buddha for money will invite others to listen to her lecture on Buddhism. She just wanted to scare off those people who robbed her of the empress dowager's attention. She had absolutely no intention of inviting others, but Gu When the imperial concubine said this, it was like the princess of spiritual songs preaching Buddhism for money.

You know, what the Empress Dowager hates the most is blasphemy against Buddha.The Queen Mother is a Buddhist believer, otherwise she would not have worshiped Buddha and came across a child on the roadside and brought it back to the palace to raise it.

Everything in Yixi Palace was going on silently, Ning Yanxue just listened quietly and didn't interrupt, she knew that there was no place for her to speak here, although Ning Yanxue was arrogant, she was not divided For those who don't know the time, her arrogance also chooses the time.

Sure enough, the Empress Dowager's complexion immediately changed: "Spiritual songs, the Buddha emphasizes inner independence. Independence, loneliness, too, discussing Buddhism with great fanfare, it is easy to lose the Buddha's nature."

"Yes, Linge understands. Linge is young and doesn't understand anything. It almost caused a catastrophe and shamed the royal family. Fortunately, all the sisters-in-law remembered the old feelings and awakened Linge." The crisis was resolved smoothly.

Ning Yanxue followed the Empress Dowager's gaze, and the Empress Dowager's expression returned to her usual kindness, looking at spiritual songs, she really looked like a master of Buddhism.

And Murong Lingge.On the other hand, she looked at Ning Yanxue unwillingly, and when she saw Ning Yanxue acted like she didn't understand anything, she said proudly, "Mother, Lingge must go back slowly and reflect on herself."

His eyes slowly swept across the imperial concubine, and the queen said with a smile, "My mother, spiritual songs are also children's minds, so you can understand them, I see, if you are not weak, you will punish Princess Qingge to copy Buddhist scriptures for your mother. Even the Prime Minister admires Xiaokai."

The Empress Dowager's expression was clearly a little displeased, but she didn't say much, she just asked someone to go to the Buddhist hall to ask for Buddhist scriptures, and asked Princess Linge to take them back and copy them.

Ning Yanxue saw it clearly. If the Queen hadn't intervened in this move, the Queen Mother would just be unable to get rid of the shame of Concubine Gu Guifei to teach Murong Lingge a little bit. After all, Princess Sui'an's love is not just a casual talk. , but with these two words from the Queen, Murong Linge would have no choice but to avoid being punished.

Ning Yanxue's eyes casually glanced at Concubine Gu and then Empress Chu. She didn't know much about the previous dynasty, and she was new to the royal family, so how could it be so easy to understand the affairs of the royal family?

There is also this Concubine Gu, who just doesn't like her. Fortunately, she doesn't have to come to the palace again in a short time.

After this episode, the Empress Dowager was not in the mood to keep these daughter-in-laws for dinner, and she promulgated the decree to seal Ning Yanxue as Concubine Ning early, and then let everyone disperse, but in this way, the time for dinner It was delayed.

Ning Yanxue was kept by the Empress Dowager for dinner, everyone knew that it was the Empress Dowager who had something to say.

The Empress Dowager sent the nanny to inform the prince that Ning Yanxue was staying for dinner, and Ning Yanxue was naturally very grateful.

The queen mother took Ning Yanxue's hand: "You child, this sword eyebrow really looks like Old General Ning."

"Yanxue's appearance is only slightly similar to her grandfather's, and she can't match her in other places."

"Hey, back then, Old General Ning was promoted by the late Emperor at the suggestion of the Ai family. I didn't expect that he would pass away after only a few years as a general protecting the country. Otherwise, the Ning family would not have fallen into what it is today. "

"Where there is prosperity, there will be decline. The empress dowager please take good care of the phoenix body. If my grandfather knows it underground, I don't want the empress dowager to bother the Ning family so much."

"You can really talk, kid. It's his luck that Jin Xi married you."

"Thank you, Empress Dowager, for your praise."

"Are you used to living in the palace?"

"Thanks to the Empress Dowager, the people in the Wangfu are good to Yan Xue, even the Empress Dowager, Yanxue is a little afraid of her."

"Oh, so, Concubine Xuan bullied you? Don't be afraid, you tell Aijia, and Aijia will vent your anger on you." The Empress Dowager patted Ning Yanxue's little hand caressingly.

Something flashed in Ning Yanxue's head, looking at the kind face of the queen mother, a series of conjectures suddenly popped up in her head, and it was this conjecture that scared her so much that her back was sweating.

Why did the Queen Mother pay so much attention to the Longxi Prince's Mansion? Even as a mother, she didn't pay so much attention to the concubine in her son's mansion, and she was so devoted to a woman she had never met before?All these things seemed normal at first, why didn't anyone find out that these problems were ultimately to monitor the Longxi Palace.

Monitor Longxi Palace?Could it be that the empress dowager doubts Murong Jinxi?Or were these ordered by the emperor?
The future road of Longxi Prince's Mansion is destined to be unstable, he sneered, what does this have to do with him, the more unlucky Murong Jinxi is, the happier he is.Naturally, he would not tell Murong Jinxi about all this.

Sowing discord among the royal family is a serious crime of beheading. Your lord, how can I, Ning Yanxue, a weak woman, be able to sow discord?

Coming out of Yixi Palace, Ning Yanxue was followed by a nanny and two court ladies, both of whom were given to Ning Yanxue by the Empress Dowager.

The effect is self-evident, and this can be regarded as something Ning Yanxue gave back to Murong Jinxi, at least for the sake of 1000 taels of gold.

If these three people keep to themselves and do their own things well, the Longxi Palace will naturally have nothing to do with them. If they accidentally do something that shouldn't be done, Ning Yanxue feels that Murong Jinxi doesn't look like someone to be messed with. the Lord.

Back in the cold courtyard, there was still no one in the deserted courtyard, Ning Yanxue smiled at Mammy Tong indifferently, "Let Mammy wait for a while, I'll ask someone to take Mammy down to resettle. However, this concubine's cold courtyard is always cold, and I hope that Mammy doesn't mind."

"Concubine Ning is serious. To be a servant, you have to look like a servant. The courtyard is cold, but it's a little less popular. When the servant reports to the manager, you can always manage the courtyard. If you have something to do, you can do it yourself. Wait for the servant. After we are settled, we will go to the empress to arrange work."

"That's more appropriate."

At that moment, a nanny and two palace maidens went down to the human room with the same expressions. Even Ning Yanxue had to say that the empress dowager really has the means to train people. Accept it, if it's another person, seeing this scene, even if you don't run away, your face will be tanned anyway.

Back in the bedroom, Xianmo was still kneeling next to the dressing table, saw Ning Yanxue come back, and bowed respectfully: "Servant, see Concubine Ning."

The imperial decree from the palace has already been passed back.Even though Xianmo was kneeling in the cold courtyard, someone came to tell her about it.

"Do you understand what's wrong?"

"Slaves think highly of themselves and don't obey discipline."

"That's right, I have a high self-esteem and don't obey discipline. I was born in the prince's enemy camp. If you have any opinions, I can tolerate it. I'm not the kind of person who waits for a small belly. Since you were sent by the prince, I think there is nothing wrong with it." You can't tell the prince, if you want to sue the prince, my concubine will naturally not stop you, but you have to be clear, you are a first-class girl with this concubine, and you will be admitted to the female official record after death. Do you understand someone's job?"

"The slaves would like to follow the teachings of Concubine Ning."

"Get up, go and see if the person gifted by the queen mother has settled down, and if it is settled, bring it to the front hall to meet my concubine."

"Yes."

Xianmo retreated respectfully, Ning Yanxue naturally wouldn't mind being surrounded by spies, if Murong Jinxi could send a girl over, she would naturally get someone from the Queen Mother, isn't that flat?The technique is not only used by emperors.

That night, Murong Jinxi's rare family had dinner together. In an ordinary family, the concubine is supposed to serve the mistress, but the Longxi Palace is not an ordinary family after all. The daughter-in-law of a family with status and status cannot be ordered by the mistress at will.

But this practice does not include Ning Yanxue.

Concubine Xuan naturally wanted to embarrass Ning Yanxue, this was a task assigned by the prince, watching the prince's women take their seats one by one, Concubine Xuan showed a rare beautiful smile.
