The Life of the Concubine of the System

Chapter 28

"Chosen?"

"Who is the candidate?"

"..."

When the concubines at the bottom heard the words of the empress above, they immediately became agitated and began to speculate one after another. They had everything to say at once.

And the concubines with some status, such as Concubine Rong, Concubine De, and Concubine Shu, of course maintain their identities, even if they have some doubts in their hearts, they are unwilling to speak out clearly, so they still maintain a very calm look on their faces. expression.

Yin Ruxue didn't even open her mouth to participate, and she also appeared indifferent on the surface.It's not that she's not curious, but what Emperor Yong Ye said a few days ago when she complained about the extreme heat, that the palace has always had the custom of going to the Summer Resort to escape the summer heat during the six dog days.

If she guessed correctly, the queen will arrange for this person to go to the summer resort today.

The queen sitting at the top saw many concubines whispering to each other, took a sip of tea from the teacup, and covered the corners of her raised lips.

Until Cen Xiuyi, who had always been on the queen's side, asked on behalf of most of the concubines:
"Your Majesty, who is this candidate? This makes all the concubines very curious?"

Cen Xiuyi stood under the big tree of the empress, her speech was naturally different from other concubines, a little more intimate and natural.

After hearing what Cen Xiuyi said, most of the concubines stopped whispering, and instead turned their eager eyes to the empress who was drinking tea.

Seeing this, the queen put down the teacup in her hand, took the silk handkerchief in her hand and gently wiped the corners of her lips, and said slowly: "This year's weather is surprisingly hot. It's not like this at this time in previous years."

The empress only said one thing, but most of the concubines present understood what the empress meant. This candidate was the one to go to the Summer Resort.

Everyone was eagerly looking forward to the queen's words.

But this time, Pang Jieyu said something like she didn't understand: "

Empress, who is this candidate? "

Many concubines turned their attention to Pang Jieyu who was asking questions.

How did Pang Jieyu think that she just asked a question, and everyone turned their eyes to her, most of them were surprised and mocking.She blushed and muttered something.

Looking at Concubine Rong who was sitting in the first few seats, she shot her eyes fiercely at Pang Jieyu, scolding an idiot so many times in her heart.

The empress did not seem to notice this scene.Instead, he continued on his own:
"This Palace has always had the custom of going to the Summer Resort to escape the summer heat, and this year's weather is also surprisingly hot. I asked the Emperor whether to arrange to go to the Summer Resort earlier. The Emperor was sympathetic to everyone, so he agreed. "

When the queen said this, she paused, and saw that the concubines were looking forward to it, she smiled, and then said:
"As for the candidates to go to the villa. The emperor ordered a few, and I also added a few."

"Taking advantage of the fact that all the An people are here today, I simply announced the news first. Let's also see what my sisters think."

The main event came, and all the concubines below held their breaths.

"The emperor ordered that Roujia can't stand the heat, and this sister Defei must go."

The concubine de concubine smiled all over her face, and obeyed the order.

Princess Roujia has always been favored by the emperor. Although everyone is unwilling, they can't.

"In addition, the emperor also said that Han Jieyu, Li Jieyu and Yun Meiren are all newcomers to the palace, and they will all go to the Summer Resort together this year."

Everyone had smiles on their faces, but they didn't know what it was like in their hearts.

Han Qinghe, Li Yang, and Yin Ruxue all turned to the empress.

After the empress waited for everyone to calm down, she continued: "I have mentioned to the emperor that this little concubine Shu can go to the villa with everyone this year."

Concubine Shu got up and saluted: "Thank you, sister queen, for your kindness, but this sister really can't leave."

Concubine Shu's evasion was expected by the empress. Although this concubine Shu was also favored by the emperor, she had never conceived a child.Even the daughter of Concubine De, who entered the palace together, is five years old, and she hasn't passed any good news yet.Concubine Shu's younger sister entered the palace in the last draft, and it was hard to get news in the past few months. How could Concubine Shu walk away, because she was afraid that her sister would be tricked.

After listening to Concubine Shu's words, the queen nodded.

"Since these newcomers, Jieyu and the beauties, have all gone to the Summer Resort, then this palace will decide to include Liu Cairen, Dong Baolin and other newcomers among the candidates."

Naturally, Liu Qian, Dong Yu and the others got up and thanked the Queen with great kindness.

Please Ann soon ended, and the concubines who returned to the palace were all thinking about each other.

Among them, Concubine Rong has the most complicated thoughts.

In previous years, she had a share of the summer vacation, but this year she was gone.

Not to mention this, her younger sister actually went to the Summer Resort, and it was the Queen's initiative to mention it.This really made her think that the queen was deliberately provoking.

The method is simple, but very useful.

Needless to say, Concubine Rong has complicated thoughts on her side, and Jinxiu Xuan's side is also full of dragons and snakes.

Not long after An An returned to the palace, Yin Ruxue had just changed clothes and was lying crookedly on the beauty's couch, when someone came to visit her.

"Beautiful master, Liu Cairen and Dong Baolin asked to see you, saying they came to see you."

Yin Ruxue was very impatient, instead of staying in her own palace on such a hot day, she ran to Jinxiu Xuan to do something.But it was hard not to entertain these two uninvited guests, so I had to take care of it a little and left the inner room.

When Yin Ruxue entered the palace, the maids had already served tea to Liu Cairen and Dong Baolin, and the two were chatting in low voices.

"Yu'er pays respects to Sister Ruxue."

"My concubine pays respects to Beauty Yun."

Seeing Yin Ruxue entering the palace, the two stood up and saluted.

Dong Yu spoke first: "My sister's tea is really good, but my sister has never had such good tea."

Yin Ruxue smiled.

Seeing that Yin Ruxue didn't talk to her.A trace of embarrassment flashed in Dong Yu's eyes, but then he returned to his normal expression and continued to speak:

"Sister Ruxue, Sister Xi'er and I came to see you, and it was also for going to the Summer Resort."

Only then did Liu Cairen say the second sentence after Yin Ruxue came in:

"The beauty will go with us to escape the summer heat, so we can take care of each other then."

Yin Ruxue raised her eyebrows, picked up the tea cup at the side, took a breath, and said with a half-smile:
"yes"

Hearing this, both Dong Baolin and Liu Cairen looked a little ugly.

The hall was completely silent at this moment, and the sound of closing the tea lid was particularly crisp.

This kind of silence lasted for a short time before it was broken by the sound of "the emperor is coming".

Yin Ruxue could see clearly, there was a hint of joy on the faces of these two people.

Emperor Yong Ye had just come down from court, and he was still wearing court clothes.After entering the hall, seeing that Ruxue did not immediately hand over the towel as usual, but bowed in a proper manner, she understood that there might be guests in Jinxiu Pavilion.

Sure enough, there were two concubines saluting behind Yin Ruxue.

This is really rare, this little bewilderment is very ignorant of the world, after so many days, it is rare for Jinxiu Xuan to see a concubine come to the door.

He took a sip of the tea brought by the beauty in front of him, and said with a smile:
"Today is really rare to see guests from Jinxiu Pavilion."

When Liu Cairen and Dong Baolin heard that the emperor was coming, they were overjoyed at first, since it was rare for them to see the emperor.But then seeing the movements of the emperor and Yun Meiren so familiar in front of him and the emperor's inaudible questioning, I felt a little uncertain.

In the end, Dong Yu came out and replied, with a sweet voice: "If you go back to the emperor, the concubines are just here to visit sister Ruxue."

After finishing speaking, he didn't react any more, instead he pulled Liu Cairen neatly and bid farewell to the emperor and Yun Meiren.
