Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 196

"What the emperor said." Shui Yanran lowered her head and smiled dryly, but she was not slack in her heart. Ming Shengdi clearly thought she was old. Even Xia Bin never mentioned her age. Ming Shengdi was younger than her. If you are ten years older, why do you hate her?
Fortunately, Shui Yanran didn't show her sincerity to Ming Shengdi, so her displeasure was quickly overturned, and she decided to dress more solemnly in the future, and then she made a show of flirting with the maid behind her, and the maid immediately put that The nourishing chicken soup with coix seed and white phoenix that had been stewed for three hours came forward.

"Your Majesty, my concubine specially asked the cook of Yikun Palace to cook this chicken soup to support you. You have been working hard for the government recently, and my concubine feels distressed when she sees it. I wish I could share some of the fatigue for the emperor." go!"

As she said that, Shui Yanran personally lifted the lid of the sand cup containing the chicken soup, the hot aroma came out, and the steaming water vapor condensed on the sand cup lid to form mist beads, she put down the lid and took it The porcelain bowl used a bucket spoon to remove the orange-yellow oil film on the soup surface, then scooped up the meaty and rich soup, blew lightly, stirred it to cool down a little, and handed it to Ming Shengdi.

"Your Majesty, taste it while it's hot. There are many good ingredients in this soup, which are most nourishing and nourishing!"

Ming Shengdi didn't eat much for dinner, and he didn't feel bloated at this time. He smelled that the soup was not greasy and pungent, so he took it, scooped it lightly, and it tasted really good.

"Your Majesty, try this meat again, it's very tender and delicious." Shui Yanran picked up the chicken with silver chopsticks, and served Ming Shengdi with a gentle smile at the end.

"Concubine Yue has a heart."

Ming Shengdi was using it, and listened to Shui Yanran and said with a smile: "Of course it is because I miss the emperor, the concubines came out of the chrysanthemum garden a little late, and when they returned to Yikun Palace, they hurriedly gathered them to cook. I don't dare to delay, if it wasn't for spending some time in the Chrysanthemum Garden with Lord Qin, I would have been able to go back earlier."

"Qin nobleman?"

"Exactly."

Shui Yanran sighed slightly, and added fuel to the unhappiness she had with Qin Guiren in the chrysanthemum garden to Ming Shengdi, emphatically deepening the guilt of Qin Guiren's ignorance of etiquette.

"Your Majesty also knows that this palace is not as restrained as outside the palace. Naturally, you will not say anything if you spoil the nobles of Qin and your concubines, but if you let her go on without courtesy, you will offend your concubines today, and you will collide again tomorrow." Empress Dowager, don't all the concubines in the palace all follow her as an example, thinking that as long as they have the emperor's love, they can do whatever they want?"

Ming Shengdi heard it in his ears, and he couldn't help but think in his heart. These days, he really favored noble Qin too much. Although she looks quite similar to Yue Jinglan when she was young, her temperament is very different. Because of that face, he might have lost weight in Ming Shengdi's heart long ago.

A woman can be favored by the emperor, but she cannot be spoiled by the emperor's favor.Although Qin Guiren was alone and did not cause Ming Shengdi any worries about his relatives, if she continued with her arrogance and extravagance, there would be endless troubles.

"I know, I will talk about her when I look back." Ming Shengdi said lightly.

I wasted a long time talking about it, but Ming Shengdi dismissed it with just a few words, and Shui Yanran was not in a hurry when she heard it.

"I still want to see my son's memorial. If Concubine Yue has nothing else to do, she should go back and rest earlier."

Shui Yanran was taken aback for a moment, she didn't spend all her time trying to please Ming Shengdi just to send chicken soup and go back to Yikun Palace. If she couldn't hold Ming Shengdi's heart firmly, she couldn't help Xia Bin, and she would also be in Xia Bin's heart. will lose weight.

"Your Majesty. These days, the Emperor always loves the nobles of Qin more, and the concubine is very envious. The concubine wants to stay and serve the emperor. It is enough to grind for the emperor and quietly accompany him by his side."

Emperor Ming frowned slightly. It would be better for a concubine to spend less time in the imperial study, a place where government affairs are handled, so he waved his hands and said, "No need, I have Shengqing and Xiao Xiazi to serve me. Shengqing, send Yue for me. Concubine go out."

Xia Shengqing leaned over and said yes, then stepped forward and made a gesture of invitation to Shui Yanran.

No matter how persistent Shui Yanran is, there is nothing she can do. Ming Shengdi has always disliked procrastinators, if she insisted on staying, it would only make Ming Shengdi unhappy.

"Concubine resigns"

She saluted reluctantly and slowly exited the room.

Fang walked out of the imperial study room, and a gust of cold wind rushed towards him. When Shui Yanran came out, she looked at the Bo Ming Emperor differently, and she specially wore a flowing pink dress. Unexpectedly, she touched her nose. , At this time, the clothes were thin and unable to withstand the wind and cold, and he was so stuffy in his heart that he dropped his sleeves and stepped down the steps.

"Concubine Yue, please stay."

Xia Shengqing followed Ming Shengdi's order to send Shui Yanran out of the imperial study, and at this time called her again, Shui Yanran stopped and turned around to look at Xia Shengqing, only to see him looking back at herself with a smile on his face.

"What else is Boss Xia doing?" Shui Yanran said coldly, her eyes were sharp, she would never forget the feud with Xia Shengqing and Xia Zijin who killed her daughter.

Xia Shengqing took two steps forward slowly, first bowed to Shui Yanran, and then said: "The Yue Concubine had a dispute with Qin Guiren today, and she deliberately made some premise to the emperor, but it will make things difficult for the emperor. The emperor Is it too much to slander Qin Guiren with flattering words, but the empress does not want her to be favored?"

Shui Yanran was even angrier when she heard this, she felt that Qin Guiren's little hoof had something to do with Xia Shengqing, otherwise Xia Shengqing would not have repeatedly rescued Qin Guiren in this palace.

She looked Xia Shengqing up and down, and said with a snort, "Boss Xia is a bit lenient. As a concubine, I should be concerned about the order of the harem. Otherwise, wouldn't everyone learn to behave like that to make the emperor even worse?" Embarrassed? Manager Xia defends nobleman Qin so much, isn't he afraid that Princess Mingzhu will have his own thoughts?"

Saying that, Shui Yanran raised her lips again and gave a deep smile, also, that little bitch of the Qin family was indeed a good-looking person, comparable to Xia Zijin.

It would be great if Xia Shengqing really had some thoughts about her, so she can take advantage of this to get rid of Xia Shengqing and Qin Guiren together!
Thinking of it this way, Shui Yanran stared at Xia Shengqing's expression even more closely, insisting on seeing some clues from his face.

". Concubine Yue, what do you mean by this? Don't wrong the servant with empty talk! The servant just thinks that Concubine Yue is too harsh on the nobleman Qin, so he just said a few fair words, how can it be called protection! "Xia Shengqing quickly denied it, but her eyes involuntarily turned aside to avoid Shui Yanran's stare.

Naturally, the momentary avoidance could not escape Shui Yanran's eyes. She was overjoyed, and then calmly continued to ask: "Oh? What if I want to treat her harshly, Mr. Xia? Do you want to go to the emperor to seek justice for Qin Guiren?"

I saw a very obvious look of anger in Xia Shengqing's eyes, and then he quickly retracted it. He clenched his fists for a moment and then released them. He raised them to Shui Yanran and bowed in front of him, "Of course my slave doesn't dare. I will send my mother here and bid farewell."

After all, Xia Shengqing stopped talking to Shui Yanran, took a deep look at her, and then turned and entered the imperial study.

At this time, Shui Yanran watched the tall and straight figure disappear through the door, but the smile on her brow grew deeper.

"Haha. God helped me too"

She spoke in a low voice, ecstatic in her heart.

It really is God's eyes to let Xia Shengqing, a damned dog, get in touch with Qin Guiren's little hoof. Fortunately, he has shown a lot of affection for Xia Zijin on weekdays, so Qin Guiren's entry into the palace is just a At this moment, the son's kung fu is not clear anymore, it is really a man's sentimental nature that cannot be changed even if his life is gone.

Now that she has discovered this stubble, she naturally wants to make good use of it. If Xia Shengqing and Qin Guiren can get rid of the two thorns in their eyes in one fell swoop, it can be said to be very satisfying.

"Qi'er. It must be you who are helping the concubine mother. Don't worry, the concubine mother will avenge you. If you take care of this dog, Xia Zijin will not be far away." Shui Yanran said to herself He muttered in a low voice, looking at the most dazzling star in the sky at a moment, his eyes could not help but overflow with sadness and hatred.

"Ma'am, what are you talking about?"

Hongxiu called her softly, only looked at Shui Yanran talking to herself, and didn't hear what she said.

"It's nothing."

Shui Yanran came back to her senses, raised her sleeves and made seals at the corners of her eyes, and then returned to that proud look.

"Go back to Yikun Palace, by the way, call the informant in Qin Guiren's palace for me, quietly." Shui Yanran whispered in Hongxiu's ear.

Hongxiu nodded and followed the water.

The end of the day is still a sunny day.

In Qin Guiren's Zhaohui Palace, there were few trees, but more flowers and plants. She held a pot of Clivia on her knees, tore off the delicate leaves with one hand, threw them on the ground and stepped on them twice in anger.

"Damn old women and ugly people do more tricks!"

The little maid behind her saw that she was using flowers to vent her anger, and she tore a pot of Clivia in a short while, and she wanted to change another pot, so she hurried forward to stop Qin Guiren.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter with you? Why are you just taking these still lifes out of your anger? You at least treasure the flowers and plants in Zhaohui Palace on weekdays."

Qin Guiren casually threw the torn pot of bald potted plants back to the little maid, snorted and complained: "What's the matter? It wasn't you who stopped me yesterday. The woman is too fussy, who knows that she turned around and sued the emperor, which caused me to be scolded by the emperor when I went to bed late last night, and asked me to restrain my temper in the future! Tell me, What is this called!"

The little palace lady was sweating a lot when she heard it, if she hadn't stopped Qin Guiren yesterday, this ancestor might have bumped into Concubine Yue, and now she's blaming herself
