Chapter 573 Chaos (9)

Said that Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived, not long after Linglong said something, Xiao Fuzi came in to report, and Concubine Chun, Concubine Berry, Concubine Wan and others came.

The concubines who are on good terms with Linglong, except Concubine Shu, who is aloof and doesn't like to get involved in the jealousy of the harem, everything else is here.

Several people saluted Linglong, and Linglong asked them to sit down and chat.

Linglong turned her head and told Xiangzhi, "Go and make some frozen top oolong."

Ruizhi quickly made tea and came over with some snacks.

But even if it's exquisite snacks and top-quality oolong tea, few people are not in the mood to drink tea.

Concubine Chun's brows were filled with worry: "The emperor is over thirty and is approaching middle age. The concubine really can't understand why he has become such an old man talking like a teenager?"

Concubine Berry was the most impatient, and couldn't help knocking the teacup with the tea lid: "I can't figure it out, that Concubine Shui is pretty, but it's not so beautiful that it makes people fascinated. For stunning beauties like Concubine Shu and Concubine Jia, even concubines feel that they are not inferior to her. Why is the emperor so obsessed with her? How long has it been since he entered the palace? ?”

Yipin hurriedly said: "Sister Berry, please keep your voice down, there are many people in the palace who hate her seductively and seductively, why do you have to speak so loudly, fortunately this is the queen's palace, otherwise if this word spreads Outside, I'm afraid it will cause rumors again."

Concubine Berry sighed dejectedly: "Although I am not the concubine of the hidden mansion, I am also the first newcomer favored by the emperor after he ascended the throne. Twelve years have passed in a hurry, and the newcomer has become the old one in a blink of an eye. Because of the orpiment poisoning incident that year, I was born I gave birth to a deformed fetus, which provoked the emperor's disgust, and the favor was not as good as every day, so I simply treated me well and let me have a prince again. The emperor looked at the child's face, so he favored me a little. Now the water With the concubine's favor so far, the child and I are afraid that the favor will be thin and no one will ask."

Berry's words also expressed the thoughts of other women in the harem.

The women in the harem basically had to rely on the emperor's favor to survive, especially the maids like Berry who were born as maids with no family background to rely on, and their own honor and disgrace were all tied to the emperor's body.

But there was only one emperor, and there were too many monks and few congee, so the competition was already very fierce, but the concubine Shui suddenly came to power, fascinated the emperor, and all their pitiful favors were plundered, so can you not get angry?

Concubine Berry said again: "The people in the palace are so snobbish. Without favor, I am worse than a slave. In the past, I was alone, and without favor, I was just wronged. Now I have the tenth prince, and the tenth prince is still so young. If there is no father's love and care, how will we live in the future?"

Concubine Chun is also a person with children, and these words touched her heart, and her brows were furrowed: "Shui Concubine's father injured Ning Yuanhou's son, and was condemned to death by the emperor. Shui Concubine is the daughter of a guilty minister. , it stands to reason that with her background, it would be difficult for her to be a noble person, let alone a concubine, but the emperor is so gracious to her, it's really shocking to see!"

Concubine Wan hurriedly said: "Empress, according to the system of the harem, there are only four concubines. Now the harem already has concubines Chun, Concubine Shu, Concubine Jia and Concubine Rou. The four concubines are already full. Five concubines, can the Empress Dowager reject the emperor's imperial decree on the grounds of the ancestral system?"
