Harem Seizure

Chapter 41

Empress Yao looked at Concubine Qi's mysterious look, blinked her eyes and laughed, looking at Shao Yunyan full of doubts.Seeing Empress Yao looking at herself like this, Shao Yunyan quickly wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, laughed and said, "Why is sister Empress looking at me like this? When Concubine Lian was crowned by the emperor, my sister, I still posted I don’t know what happened. And my sister is far away from the chrysanthemum pavilion, so I don’t know what happened to the chrysanthemum pavilion.”

"Hey...Speaking of which, you really can't know about Concubine Yi. The concubine Lian is the grand master's daughter and Sun Guozhang's granddaughter. How could we imagine that she would act like Mrs. Zhang. This big On a cold day, wearing a bright red skirt with strapless shoulders, she ran to the Chrysanthemum Pavilion to play the piano, trying to attract the emperor's attention. It's not that my Concubine Qi has too many things to do, but it's just that many people have seen it. The bare shoulders are really fair and flawless."

Empress Yao glanced at Concubine Qi, smiled and said, "Concubine Lian is not afraid of the cold, and there is nothing we can do about it. She survived smallpox, so her body is naturally different from that of our sisters. She is different from Mrs. Zhang, she is expensive. Girl, even though you, concubine Qi and concubine Shao's younger sister, concubine Yi, even the empress of this palace is no match for her in terms of family background. That is to say, Concubine Xia can be compared with Concubine Lian."

"Sister Empress, what you said is right. What kind of concubine's background is it? It's a pity for Concubine Lian's good background, but what is the difference between such behavior and the one in the Palace of Appreciation of Music? What kind of Concubine Lian did the emperor confer on her?" , wouldn't it be great to simply make her a happy concubine?"

"Concubine Qi be careful, although this is my palace's Fengyang Palace, it's hard to keep people from talking about it. The emperor's thoughts are not something we can talk about. If something happens, this palace can't protect you." Empress Yao looked Glancing at Concubine Qi, she said calmly.

Concubine Qi looked at Shao Yunyan who had been silent all this time, smiled and said: "Everyone in the empress's palace is honest, my sister also believes in the ability of the queen's sister, no one dares to talk nonsense."

"But this Concubine Lian doesn't know the rules. It's been so many days, and she hasn't come to Fengyang Palace to pay my respects to me. Has she gone to your place?" Empress Yao's face flashed a little bit of displeasure when she said this.

Concubine Qi smiled sarcastically, looked at the two of them, and said in a low voice, "I guess that Concubine Lian won't be able to get out of bed until now. Do you know what kind of favor that Concubine Lian has received?"

"I really don't know about this... But Concubine Qi, how did you know?" Empress Yao frowned and looked at Concubine Qi and asked with a cold snort.

Concubine Qi smiled slightly, looked at Empress Yao and Shao Yunyan and said mysteriously: "The emperor has given her a great favor. This snow-covered plum blossom is something that ordinary people can't enjoy. You just talk about it, Who can enjoy that?"

Shao Yunyan's eyes flashed, and there was a little smile in her eyes. Did she really guess right?Is it true that Yingmei in the snow is what ordinary people suffer?That kind of pain, if you don't have a bit of coquettish charm, how can you bear it?
Empress Yao's eyes flickered and she smiled, seeing Shao Yunyan's clear and shining eyes, she couldn't help laughing, pointing to Shao Yunyan and said: "Looking at my sister like this, she looks very looking forward to it. Your new It hasn't been long since I entered the palace, so I don't know about it. My sister should not look forward to it."

"Sister really doesn't know what it is, but I heard from Sister Qi that she may not be able to get out of bed for a few days. But it scared my sister and me. I am very worried." Shao Yunyan smiled softly.

"Hey...you are still young. If you don't understand these things, if you never try this taste. That is your luck. But my sister sees that it is impossible for you to taste this taste. My sister is not a coquettish girl, our emperor It's too late to cherish, where can I use that thing?" Concubine Qi smiled softly, glanced at Shao Yunyan, covered her mouth and laughed.

"The Chinese New Year is coming up in a few days. If Concubine Lian can't get out of bed, how can she attend the New Year's banquet?" Shao Yunyan said with a smile while blinking her eyes.

"Hey... There is nothing wrong with the left and right. During the New Year's banquet, I will also ask you to come and hear what to do with this New Year's banquet. After all, there are more people in the palace first, and you are all in the same palace. You can put forward your own opinions." Empress Yao asked with a smile, looking at Concubine Qi and Shao Yunyan with a little tenderness in her eyes.

"Where does this concubine know these things, but she's just joining in the fun." Shao Yunyan just smiled softly, and looked at the queen with a gentle smile.

Empress Yao pointed at Shao Yunyan and cursed with a smile: "The Yuxiu Palace you manage is very good, I think you are very good." Empress Yao looked at Shao Yunyan with admiration in her eyes.

"My concubine is so valued by the empress, I really feel flattered." Shao Yunyan smiled gently and dignifiedly.

Empress Yao glanced at the two of them, smiled and said, "Look at what we've been talking about for so long, I'm a little tired. The two younger sisters should go back first."

After hearing this, Shao Yunyan and Concubine Qi stood up and left Fengyang Palace with a smile.Concubine Qi glanced at Shao Yunyan with her head down, looked at Shao Yunyan with a half-smile and said: "Sister Concubine Yi, just now in Fengyang Palace, sister didn't say anything. He doesn't seem like someone who would be bestowed with plum branches by the emperor. Could it be that younger sisters are different in front of the emperor than they are in front of the sisters?"

Shao Yunyan just smiled slightly when she heard this, blinked her eyes at Concubine Qi and said, "My sister never knew what the concubine Qi and the queen's sister were doing when they brought up the plum branches again and again? The emperor did reward a few plum branches to my sister's palace, too Because my younger sister likes wintersweet flowers in the courtyard, so the emperor rewarded my concubine with a few blooming snow plums. Why does my sister keep saying that my younger sister is different from usual? Does my sister know that the plum blossoms in the snow are What? My sister saw it with her own eyes."

Concubine Qi choked on Shao Yunyan's words very uncomfortable.Staring at Shao Yunyan, her face turned pale with anger, and her eyes were full of fire.But I couldn't get angry at Shao Yunyan because of my face, I just twisted a perfect smile and said: "My sister is also a good thing, I like to inquire about it. I heard that the emperor sent my sister Meizhi, and I am worried that my sister will receive such a reward." .My sister is caring about my sister. My sister does not have the honor to be rewarded by the emperor."

"So that's how it is. Then that Concubine Lian is really honored? Do you think she is Concubine Qi's sister?" Shao Yunyan rolled her big eyes and said with a smile.

Concubine Qi nodded, looked at Shao Yunyan, wiped her face and said with a smile: "That's natural. Let's go, sister. Don't stay here. If my sister doesn't dislike it, why don't we continue talking in my sister's palace?"

"Oh, I'm sorry, sister. I still have to send some snacks to Concubine Gao. I can't go to Qingfei Palace with Concubine Qi. Next time my sister will definitely go to Qingfei Palace to ask for trouble." Shao Yunyan said with a smile.

Concubine Qi glanced at Shao Yunyan and said, "Then sister will go ahead." After speaking, she got on the chariot and was carried away far away.

Seeing Concubine Qi going away, Shao Yunyan slightly raised the corners of her mouth.Concubine Qi, don't pretend to be smart. "Go to Xuande Palace."

Concubine Gao looked at Shao Yunyan who walked in, and laughed, with a different smile in her eyes.Holding Shao Yunyan's hand, she said, "My sister also said to go see my sister sometime. I didn't expect my sister to come by herself."

"How can my sister go to see my sister? It should be my sister who came to see my sister. I wanted to find my sister when I was bored. But my sister's health is not up to date. She caught a cold a few days ago, and it was only yesterday that she was fine." Li Suo. I went to visit the empress today. I came to see my sister when I came out of Fengyang Palace. Don’t dislike my sister for being late.”

Concubine Gao took Shao Yunyan's hand and sat down, looked carefully at Shao Yunyan's slightly thin face and said: "I heard that my sister fell ill a few days ago, so I want my sister to be very worried. If the emperor hadn't issued a ban, don't we bother you often , my sister will definitely visit you. How is it, are you still feeling unwell now? "

"Sister, don't worry, my sister's body is still in good condition. It's just that the wind blows from the wind, and I don't drink ginger tea in time, so I get a cold. How can I think that I have a fever at night? Actually, my sister didn't either. Pay attention, you are worried about my sister." Shao Yunyan glanced at Concubine Gao and said with a smile.

"Hey... why is my sister saying that. The two of us, whether we are sisters in the palace or we are friends outside the palace. Our relationship is close. Sister, I am a little older than you, so I should take care of you. Concubine Gao looked at Shao Yunyan's profile and smiled softly.

"Thanks to my sister for taking care of me, my sister is doing well." Shao Yunyan said with a smile while lowering her head.

"Sister, but the newly promoted Concubine Lian took the emperor away from you? It's also because of her that you are suffering from the cold, right?" Concubine Gao asked casually.

"It's not counted as the emperor who escaped from me. Although the emperor has passed on the decree to rest in Yuxiu Palace, but after all, he still hasn't arrived at Yuxiu Palace, so naturally he is not considered as escaped from me."

Concubine Gao looked at Shao Yunyan with hatred for iron and steel, and softly reprimanded: "You, you just thought so well. One of your majestic six concubines was taken away by the emperor by a little Xiuyi. Do you want my sister to tell me?" What are you doing?"

"If the emperor wants to go to my sister, who can go? It's not because the emperor sees that the concubine Lian is more charming than me. Even if the emperor goes to my sister, she can't sleep with her when she is sick. The emperor still has to go. In that case, I hope the emperor won't go at all." Shao Yunyan said very calmly.

Concubine Gao looked at Shao Yunyan's side face and didn't know what to say, she just laughed, looked at Shao Yunyan and asked, "Hey, but I heard that the emperor treated her well. My sister just heard the empress talk about snow. What is Diyingmei?"

Shao Yunyan shook her head slightly, quietly looking at Concubine Gao's face.Waiting for Concubine Gao's next words.She must know about Yingmei in the snow, but now it is Yingmei in the snow.The handiwork that Empress Li had to do in the late period, but Xiaomeizhi could do it.

Concubine Gao looked at the servants, waved her hand and said: "The emperor personally waved the servants away. Eunuch Wen went to fetch the plum branch. I heard that Eunuch Wen didn't like that person. The plum branch he folded is Rougher ones. Sister thinks that Sister Lianfei's skin is so good that she will lose her face after being beaten."

"Hit?"

"Little sister, you are too simple. In the harem of the Li Kingdom, that concubine committed the crime of licentiousness, so she should not be punished? If it wasn't for her concubine Lian who has the aunt of today's empress dowager, she would have committed the crime of seducing the emperor. It's enough for her, and you still want to enjoy the snowy plums?" Gao Guifei smiled softly, with gloating on her face.

Concubine Gao didn't want to say too harsh words, but Shao Yunyan understood her unwillingness.She entered the harem with Empress Yao, and she could have been named a noble concubine at that time, but the Empress Dowager pressed Li Huang and refused to agree, and even had a falling out with Li Huang, so she went to the temple.When the queen mother came back, Concubine Gao and the queen mother had a tough battle to fight.

Shao Yunyan smiled and said, "Sister, sister made winter plum cake, won't sister try it?"

Concubine Gao saw that Shao Yunyan changed the subject, so she started talking to Shao Yunyan about something else.

Concubine Lian's ascension to the throne was no secret in the palace, and she became the biggest joke at the end of this year.No one wanted to be that leader in public, but there was one person who couldn't hold back.
