Rebirth of the drama: Ben Gong just wants to be salted fish

Chapter 18
Shen Yingying said commuting and considerate words on her lips, but it could be seen from her cold eyes that she was not willing to choose the emperor's concubine, but she came here just to put on an appearance in front of the emperor.

Rong Jiao understood her thoughts and raised the corners of her lips slightly.

"Concubine Shen is really joking. If you talk about pampering the entire palace, which concubine can compare to you? Although this palace is only a nominal queen, the emperor does not like it, and there is no real power in my hands. Not to mention embarrassment, the emperor can tolerate it." It's a blessing, Sister Concubine Shen, you should go and raise this matter with the emperor."

Rong Jiao kicked back the ball she had cut.

It was originally a matter for the court ministers to let the emperor accept concubines. Even so, it was the empress dowager who should be mentioned. Why is she so preoccupied with being a queen?
Don't think she doesn't know, Shen Yingying came to her again holding back her anger!Concubine De just mentioned the matter of choosing a concubine yesterday, and today she came to look for something, if there is no reason for this, she would not believe it.

"Empress, the concubine is just afraid that I won't be able to get it. Although the emperor treats the concubine very well, there are some things that the concubine always needs to come forward for."

Shen Yingying originally wanted the queen to quarrel with the emperor, but the last time she didn't know who proposed to choose a concubine, the queen immediately made a big fuss in front of the emperor, turned around and used the power of the general's mansion to suppress the ministers of all parties, and then chose the concubine things to press down.

But now Concubine De suddenly mentioned that it made her feel resentful, but she had no choice but to force a smile.

"Sister Concubine De, you are really considerate. The emperor has been busy with government affairs recently, so he has long forgotten about choosing a concubine. It is a pity that he reminded me kindly, otherwise it will be delayed until next year."

Shen Yingying repeatedly emphasized that Concubine De proposed the selection of concubine, in order to let the queen teach Concubine De.

Rong Jiao could see Shen Yingying's heart clearly, she pretended to be a good person, and wanted to use her hands to get rid of Concubine De.

How dare Concubine De fall behind?
"Sister Concubine Shen was joking. This palace is the head of all concubines. My sister must not remember wrongly. Although Concubine Shen is the most favored by the emperor, she has not seen any movement in her stomach. Our emperor has reached this age. It is to spread the branches and leaves for the royal family, we concubines can't do it, we have to let other concubines come, otherwise when the queen mother returns, there will be no good news at all, and we will inevitably be talked about by the queen mother."

Rong Jiao couldn't remember when Concubine De, the cannon fodder, hiccupped?
I just remember that in the book it seems to have been mentioned briefly, Concubine De and Concubine Shen were defeated in the competition for favor, and ended her wonderful years in loneliness.

"Concubine De is carefully selected by the emperor. She deserves it. She has both virtue and conduct, is reasonable, and considers the emperor in every way. Even this palace admires her deeply. Can Concubine De have someone to recommend?"

Rong Jiao didn't want to get involved with them in this concubine Xuan's matter, if they came to her, if she didn't say a few words, she would really become a nominal queen.

"Your Majesty, there seem to be a lot of ladies of the right age in the families of the ministers this year. The concubines feel that according to the usual practice in previous years, we will have a lot of laughter in our harem."

Concubine De smiled like a flower, as if she sincerely accepted the emperor's concubine.

Shen Yingying also had a smile on her face, but more indifference was released from her eyes.

Rong Jiao sat watching a play, what kind of sisters are these?

"Empress, the concubine just thinks that the emperor will be too busy to choose a concubine at this time, and the emperor is not here, so we have to take it easy."

Shen Yingying finally couldn't hold back what was on her mind.

Rong Jiao had no idea or stand on whether the emperor wanted to accept a concubine or not. There were already so many women in the harem, so it didn't matter if there were more. Anyway, as far as she was concerned, as long as she didn't care about the emperor, everything would be fine. .

"Hey, it turns out that you all came to this palace for the sake of accepting a concubine, but I think whether you should accept a concubine or not, and what kind of concubine you want, depends on the emperor's wishes, and the emperor is satisfied. Then we'll be more satisfied, don't you think?"

Her lowered eyes are full of drama, Shen Yingying hasn't visited her Jingyang Palace for 800 years, and now she is used as a spearhead. Fortunately, the inner core has been changed a long time ago, otherwise Rongjiao's temper will definitely be I want to make a fuss with the emperor in the morning.

"The two sisters are able to go to the palace today. They are here to discuss the matter of choosing a concubine for the emperor. Everyone is so enthusiastic. If the emperor knows about it, he must be very touched. I am afraid that the emperor rested with you last night, Concubine Shen. Darling, what are you afraid of?"

Anyway, she didn't speak clearly, so she directly attacked Shen Yingying, but she was stunned for a moment on the spot.

"Queen..."

She stretched her waist: "I'm just about to get up, I'm not energetic yet, if you two have nothing to do, just kneel down."

The emperor hadn't started choosing concubines yet, so he couldn't hold back his temper, so if she had to deal with all kinds of concubines coming to discuss with her, she would be exhausted!

Fan Xin sent the two concubines away, but when he came back, his face was full of thoughts.

"Your Majesty, it's rare for the two concubines to get started. I'm afraid they really have a heart for the emperor's selection of concubines."

She didn't take it to heart at all.

"Shen Yingying is quite favored by the emperor. If a newcomer enters the palace, she will definitely share some of her favor. This is so impatient to destroy the emperor's choice of concubine. It's a pity that the palace is now enlightened, so I won't be fooled by her." .”

Hearing her speak like this, Fan Xin had a helpless smile on his face.

"Then lady, where is Concubine De? She seems to have never been favored by the emperor since she entered the palace, so why did she come here to look for the empress?"

Rong Jiao said without hesitation: "It's because she is not favored, that's why I want the new concubine to enter the palace."

Fan Xin was confused by her words.

"Your Majesty, don't be joking. Even Concubine Shen is afraid that the newcomer will be spoiled by the newcomer. Concubine De is not favored in the first place. If the newcomer enters the palace, wouldn't she have no chance to be favored?"

She shook her head helplessly: "You are still too young! Although Concubine De is not favored, the family power behind him is huge, comparable to our general's mansion. Once she is favored, the status of this palace will be greatly reduced." It is in danger, but for several years, the emperor has not looked at her, he is afraid that he is in a hurry, he wants to win over the new concubine who has entered the palace to compete for him, if my guess is correct, this time, there must be a woman from Defei's family entering the palace."

That's why she didn't personally participate in these matters, and she didn't even hear anyone talk about them, but looking at the women in the entire harem, which one is not a king?
"Your Majesty, one of the servants is convinced. Your Majesty said so much just now. The servant thinks about it carefully. It is true. Concubine Shen and Concubine De may not be able to tolerate each other in the future."

After being reminded by the Queen, Fan Xin probably understands Kilometer's current power, and everyone is just thinking about themselves.

"Then empress, what should we do if the emperor chooses a concubine?"

Rong Jiao took a sip of tea, looked at the fine weather outside, and felt that ancient times were really good.

"Sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, don't cause trouble, don't cause trouble, but they are not afraid of trouble, they can fight whatever they want, if they dare to drag me into the water, then no one will feel better about it."
