imperial concubine

Chapter 135
The voice was not loud, even a little low, but the queen heard it clearly.The smile on her face froze immediately, and she turned her head to look at the person who spoke just now, Su Wan who was sitting above her.

The queen narrowed her eyes slightly, looked at Su Wan's mouth and said, "Wan'er, did you read the wrong card? Just now Concubine Shu played badly, don't play tricks on me."

The queen naturally knew that it was impossible for Su Wan to misread the cards, not to mention how could Su Wan misread the cards under such circumstances?At this time, the queen's words were just to put pressure on Su Wan to take back what she just said and give her a step down.

Before Su Wan could speak, Concubine Shu said with a smile: "Sister, Wan'er is very lucky today, it must not be the wrong card. My sister can only give up the love and give the chicken to Wan'er. "

Just now when the queen bewitched Concubine Shu, Concubine Shu felt very depressed.Hearing Su Wan's cut off at this time, how angry he was just now, how happy he is now.In such a happy mood, of course she would take the opportunity to add insult to injury and step on the queen.

Hearing the Queen's words, Su Wan pretended not to understand the meaning, and after looking at the cards in his hand, said to the Queen very sincerely: "Mother, Wan'er read the cards right, it's a chicken."

As he spoke, Su Wan pushed all the cards in his hand away so that the other three could see them clearly.The queen glanced at it, and sure enough, Su Wan was as stupid as she was, a chicken.

Yun Jingya on the side saw Su Wan's card, frowned and thought for a while and said, "There are such coincidences in the world. It seems that Wan'er and you have a lot of fate with your mother. Why don't you give this card to your mother?" Wan'er!"

Yun Jingya also didn't know what was going on with Su Wan. If it was Su Wan's deliberate design, then it was too coincidental to draw this card; Speak exactly after the queen hoo?

However, Yun Jingya knew that she could only give this card to Su Wan now, so she immediately gave the Queen a step up. It should have been Su Wan's card, but now it has become the card awarded to Su Wan by the Queen. His face was also saved.

Hearing Yun Jingya's words, the queen's complexion became much better, and without waiting for Concubine Shu to intervene, she said: "Jingya is very right. Before it was Fengchai, today it is Yaoji, Wan'er and Bengong are very destined. Forget it, this card is for you."

Saying that, the queen threw the card back into the deck, and then pushed her own card into it. After being manipulated by the queen, this round can only be reshuffled and restarted.

Su Wan seemed to have never realized that she had just offended the queen, and while pushing the cards into the pile, she smiled and said to Concubine Shu: "Ms. Concubine Shu, Wan'er has won three chips from you again, you must not You are angry with Wan'er."

At this time, Concubine Shu was extremely happy, not to mention that Su Wan won her three chips, as long as she could not make the queen happy, it would not be impossible to give Su Wan thirty chips.

Thinking of this, Concubine Shu also smiled and said: "It's okay, it's just an ordinary pastime. Could it be that my heart is so narrow-minded, that I will get angry with you just for a few bargaining chips?"

Concubine Shu kept the empress tight in her words, insinuating that the empress was narrow-minded and angry with others for a few bargaining chips.The Empress Biansheng couldn't refute yet, she could only smile and agree with Concubine Shu's words.

At this time, only the palace servants came to report, and His Royal Highness asked to see him.The queen was angry at first, but when she heard the prince came, she finally showed a sincere smile on her face, "Let the emperor come in."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the queen's own son, and he is a compatriot with Yun Jingya's mother.The queen has always loved this son very much. Every time the prince is mentioned, the queen always smiles.

There were footsteps in the outer hall, and then a tall and handsome man walked in, looked at the four people who were playing cards in the hall, smiled and greeted: "Greetings to the empress, concubine Shu, and elder sister. yes"

It turned out that it was the prince who saw Su Wan last. He thought that the person sitting there was Concubine Lin, but when that person stood up, he realized that this person was not Concubine Lin at all, nor the concubine he knew in the palace. .

Seeing the prince coming in, Su Wan got up quickly, and when the prince finished paying respects and asked herself, Su Wan said: "The fourth imperial concubine Su Wan has seen His Royal Highness the prince."

Hearing that Su Wan reported his family name, the prince knew that she was the concubine married by the fourth prince recently.It's just that although the prince has heard of Su Wan's name, he has never seen her in person, so he can't recognize her.

The crown prince looked at Su Wan carefully and said: "The fourth imperial concubine is free of courtesy, but today I am blind. I often hear people say that the fourth imperial concubine is both talented and beautiful. Seeing her today, she really deserves her reputation."

Su Wan thanked the prince, then sat down and began to count cards, while the prince himself moved Jindun to sit next to the queen, watching the queen play cards, and giving advice to the queen from time to time.

Seeing the prince's appearance, Su Wan tried to test it in her heart. She rolled her eyes, stretched out her hand, and said, "Yesterday, Wan'er heard that there was a Persian cat in the Queen's Palace. It was so cute. Why didn't I see that cat today?" What? Wan'er has always wanted to see you!"

Concubine Shu used this excuse to force Su Wan to come to Kunning Palace yesterday. Although she came here today and didn't see the cat, she stopped thinking about it.At this time, seeing that the prince was so restless, he decided to test him with this cat.

Sure enough, the prince, who couldn't stand the loneliness just now, heard Su Wan's words, and said with a smile: "I guess it's the mother who put the colored glaze in the inner hall again. I'll go and have a look."

After speaking, he got up from the Jindun and walked into the inner hall. After a while, he brought out a cat from the inner hall, and saw that the cat was born with snow-white hair, like a little snowball, fluffy and cute .

Looking at the kitten, Concubine Shu had a smile on her face, "This cat is so cute, I just want to pet it when I see it. No wonder the empress wants to keep it in the inner hall. It seems that the empress is afraid of being seen, so she opened her mouth. Let's go from you!"

Concubine Shu made fun of the queen, and secretly alluded to the fact that the queen had held the chicken in her hand early in the round when Su Wan cut off the chicken, but in the end Su Wan cut off the chicken, but she didn't want to take it out, and even used her power to overwhelm others.

The queen took the cat from the prince, put it on the table, touched it lightly, and said with a smile: "To be honest, this Liuli Bengong is really reluctant to give it away. However, if someone asks my sister for that budgerigar, Thinking about it, my sister is also reluctant, right?"

Su Wan looked at Liuli lying obediently on the table, but she was thinking in her heart that the prince didn't seem to have made any progress in these years, and he was still so active. Just a word from himself, he went to hug the cat out himself.

After hearing the queen's words, Su Wan said with a smile: "Yesterday, Wan'er saw Concubine Shu's parrot in Zhanqing Palace. It is not only beautiful, but also very clever. It made us lean forward and back together."

Although Su Wan saw the parrot only for a while yesterday, and Concubine Shu didn't let other people tease her, it didn't prevent Su Wan from talking here today. After all, Concubine Shu, the only one who knew the inside story, would definitely not expose Su Wan now.

The prince was sitting on the brocade pier and teasing Liuli. Hearing Su Wan's words, he said unconvinced: "Liuli is also very smart, but he can't see it for a while, let alone take the initiative to please others."

The implication is that although Concubine Shu's parrot is clever, it is too smart and knows how to make people happy, but unlike Liuli, it has its own ideas and will not act flatteringly for a little profit.

Hearing what the prince said, Yun Jingya continued: "Exactly. Sometimes it's better to be stupid. People who are too smart have never had a good end since ancient times."

As he spoke, he glanced at Su Wan intentionally or unintentionally.Su Wan knew that she was warning herself that she had gone too far when she cut off Hu Yaoji just now, if she wanted to be safe in this harem, she would restrain herself a little later.

Seeing Yun Jingya's wink, Su Wan reached out and touched a card and said, "Your Highness is right. However, it's better to be smart, otherwise you can only be a stepping stone for others willingly."

If I am not smart, I am afraid that now I can only be used as a spear by Yun Jingya.What's more, Yun Jingya used to be kind and self-respecting before, if she wasn't smart, she might really become a stepping stone for Yun Jingya.

Seeing that Su Wan played a card, the Queen happened to be useful, so she ate that card, "Only useless people will become stepping stones. Just like your card, it is naturally useful for me to eat it; but this card Leaving it to Concubine Shu, I think she will be regarded as an abandoned son."

The card that the queen took was played by Su Wan, so the card in the words naturally referred to Su Wan.Presumably the queen still didn't want to give up Su Wan at this time, so she showed her favor to Su Wan in this way and told her that she would end up being an abandoned child with Concubine Shu sooner or later.

Concubine Shu sorted out the cards in her hand, smiled and said to the queen: "My sister doesn't know what card my sister has in her hand, so how do you know that my sister doesn't want that one? Why don't my sister let it out and see if my sister wants it?"

Concubine Shu was very satisfied with Su Wan's performance just now. Seeing that Su Wan had already started to tilt to her side, naturally the queen couldn't let the queen pull her back at this time.Besides, regardless of whether it is useful or not, it is best to grab it first.

Hearing Concubine Shu's words, Yun Jingya said with a smile: "Even if the empress eats it, she may not be able to win the cards in the end. If the empress can't play the cards, even if she eats more, what's the point?"

It turned out that Yun Jingya knew what Queen Cai was thinking when she heard what Queen Cai said just now.So they began to take advantage of the fact that the two had just formed an alliance, and began to drive a wedge between Su Wan and Concubine Shu. As long as Concubine Shu became suspicious of Su Wan, Su Wan would turn against her sooner or later.

Regarding Yun Jingya's words, Concubine Shu shook her head with a smile and said, "As long as I can get enough cards, then I can naturally play cards. Don't you even understand such a simple truth, Jingya?"

Yun Jingya stretched out her hand to play a card, looked at Concubine Shu and said, "No matter how many cards you have, Ma'am, but you don't have a general in your hand, you still can't play cards. At that time, Madam can only look at the cards and be anxious."

The biggest weakness of Concubine Shu's line of power is that she does not have a legitimate name. After all, the crown prince is on the side of the queen and Yun Jingya. If she can't help the second prince to the throne in her lifetime, or abolish the crown prince, Concubine Shu can only be a rebellious That's all.

Hearing Yun Jingya's words, Concubine Shu narrowed her eyes slightly, tapped the table lightly with her slender fingers and said, "How does the princess know that I don't have a general in my hand? Only if I have a card, are you still afraid of not having a general?"

The prince on the other side saw a few people who were only interested in chatting, and felt that they were playing cards too slowly, so he had already played while holding the glass.Concubine Shu looked at the prince who was having fun with Liuli, and smiled nonchalantly.

When the Queen heard Concubine Shu's words, she smiled and said, "Could it be possible to have a general if you have a card? Even if my sister has a card and a general in her hand, how do you know that other people don't have a bigger card or a bigger general?"

Regarding Concubine Shu's wishful thinking, the Empress Empress is very clear in her heart.It's just that the empress relies on the crown prince, relies on the emperor, and has Yun Jingya as her support. No matter how powerful Concubine Shu is, when the emperor ascends the throne, won't she still be romantic?

Just when the three of them were thinking about each other, they heard a cheer, "Wan'er is fooling around again."
