Concubine's Handbook of Good Life in Ancient Times

Chapter 131

Grandma Bai did the math, there used to be four concubines of the second rank, but now there are only three.And everyone is guessing that the master will be promoted at the end of the year, and at that time he will at least treat a fourth concubine from the first rank.As for the noble concubine Baima, I haven't dared to think about it, the master's promotion to the position of fourth concubine is fast enough, let alone a first-rank noble concubine.

"Look, mama! If the people in the harem are not honest, there will be fewer and fewer people day by day."

Ningshu who was thrown into the cold palace, Jinmei and Wang Guiren who died, as well as Lin Changyi and concubine Xuan who were demoted, these people are proof.They insisted on going their own way to die, and the emperor had long wanted to fulfill it.

"Ms. Xuan concubine kept crying out for her grievances when she received the imperial decree. It's a pity that the emperor won't believe her words!"

Mei Dong was very satisfied with the emperor's concubine status. If she hadn't been a pick in the middle, Lin Gengyi would have dared to anoint his master on his way back?
"Okay, Mei Dong." Shuning didn't bother to listen to Concubine Xuan's affairs, she already knew that this person was not friendly to her, and there was no need to bother about her.To Shuning's surprise, Concubine Xuan actually arranged spies here. It can only be said that the money is touching!There are still a large number of people in this world who want money and life. Shu Ning doesn't want to say anything, because it's useless. For these people, although Concubine Jia treats them well, how can they refuse if they have money to earn? !

"Master, what should I do with the court lady who betrayed the master?"

Mei Qiu had a murderous look on his face, although the master's personal servants only brought them a few, but the rough envoys and eunuchs also brought a few, and it turned out that among these people, there were actually betrayers, and they had once received the master's favor people.

"There are white-eyed wolves everywhere in this world. I can't ask everyone to be loyal, because it's impossible. Just remember Hou Lin to deal with it, and go back wherever you came from!"

Shu Ning is very open-minded, she can't ask the people in her palace to be completely loyal to her, so the only thing she can do is to make these people who are close to her not to betray her.

"master."

Mei Dong is still a bit unworthy of the master. The maid was injured by the former concubine and almost died. The master asked him to heal her. In the end, she repayed the master in this way. Mei Dong really wanted to go back to the time when he treated the maid. , she will never save her again, just let her die from serious injuries.

"Okay, I'm fine, you all back down!"

Shu Ning waved her hand, making everyone back out, including Nanny Bai.

This kind of betrayal was not the first time. For example, Shu Ning treated her very well, but she framed herself in front of the emperor.

So even though she felt a little uncomfortable because of being betrayed, Shu Ning no longer felt sad for these people, because it wasn't worth it!
So when the emperor rushed over to comfort Concubine Jia, he saw that she was sitting leisurely on the couch embroidering flowers, and there was a court lady fanning her beside her.

"Why is the emperor here? He doesn't rest at noon."

Shuning undressed the emperor and let him take a lunch break here.

"Aren't I worrying about my concubine?"

The emperor was lying on the bed wearing only ice silk clothes, and there was an ice basin in the corner of the room. In addition, there was a lake outside the Yishui Pavilion, so the room was not hot at all, and the slightest bit of coolness made the emperor's eyelids feel cold. Slowly got heavier.

"Your Majesty, please rest, my concubine is here to accompany the Emperor."

Shuning held the silk fan in her hand and fanned the emperor until there was no more sweat on his forehead.

After rubbing her hands, Shuning lay beside the emperor, closed her eyes and rested.This person always feels sleepy when summer comes, and Shuning is no exception.

When it came to Shuning's birthday, it was also the fifteenth day of the Mid-Autumn Festival.In ancient times, there was a custom that men did not worship the moon and women did not worship the stove, so on this day everyone worshiped the moon god under the leadership of the queen mother and empress.Then the emperor entertained the princes and ministers in front, while the queen mother and Huanghe invited all the wives to enjoy the moon in the back.

The mooncakes are specially made, and they are not inferior to the craftsmanship of later generations. Shuning also made Meiqiu and the others make fruit flavors and salted egg yolk flavors. She likes to eat these two, but she can only taste a small bite of each. Don't dare to eat too much for fear of accumulating food.

The empress dowager and empress also got a portion of the fruit flavored moon cakes, and of course the emperor also got a plate, and the others got a plate of Concubine De, and no one else even took a look at it.

"Mother, the mooncakes are sweet."

It was the first time for the eldest prince to eat mooncakes. He was in poor health before. The concubine Xian always said that he could not eat this or that, and even took away the good things sent by his father and grandmother. The eldest prince could only eat them. Some bland foods, even moon cakes, have never been tasted before. Concubine Xian said that he would accumulate food if he couldn't digest it after eating it. The emperor's father rewarded him with food, so he let himself smell it.

"Silly boy, there are sweet mooncakes and salty mooncakes. You can try the salty ones. It's also delicious, but you can't eat too much!"

Concubine De inserted a small piece, about the size of a thumbnail, and fed it to the First Prince. This child is still weak, and he can only taste these things.

"Mother, it's delicious."

The eldest prince showed a satisfied smile, which almost brought Concubine De almost to tears.

When she knew that the First Prince had never eaten mooncakes, she almost rushed into the cold palace to give Ning Shu a few slaps. Is there anyone like that?

Although the Eldest Prince is physically weak, he is not to the point where he can't even eat mooncakes, but how do ordinary people do it?To actually divert the portion belonging to the First Prince for her own use, but let the First Prince eat something that she doesn't even touch. Is there such a mother?
If it wasn't for this, the emperor wouldn't have demoted the eldest prince's mother to a commoner. Even Concubine De wanted to beat Ning commoner when she found out. The emperor is his own father. How could it be possible for his son to be treated like this? not angry.

It was Shuren Ning who killed herself. People in her palace hated her very much. After knowing that she had been demoted to a commoner, they rushed to tell the evil things she had done, including saying that she was kind to the eldest prince. The nanny was drowned in the water.

Just because the nanny was more willing to get close to the nanny in the eldest prince than Ning Shuren, so Ning Shuren drowned her.She was also splashed with sewage and unwarranted charges on the nanny, and she didn’t even have a place to rest after she died, so she was thrown directly into a random grave, and even sent people to chase and kill the nanny’s family. Finally, the nanny’s family escaped from the capital. find someone.

But according to their estimation, the nanny's family is in danger.
