Harem: Biography of Concubine Qin

Chapter 13 Meeting the Guest
In her opinion, the emperor can only eat two bites of his favorite dish every meal, which is really too painful.

Now I am eating at her place, so the emperor must enjoy it.

"it is good……"

The emperor cooperatively picked up another piece of pear cake, and scooped a spoonful of cheese carp for Chen Wenxin with a small silver spoon, and put it in the small bowl in front of her.

Li Dequan, who was serving on the side, slandered in his heart, is the emperor being polite?Does the emperor need to be polite?In this palace, is there anything that does not belong to the emperor?
The world belongs to the emperor.

The emperor slowed down when he was six or seven percent full, but he didn't stop.

He is used to eating [-]% full to maintain health, but Chen Wenxin obviously hasn't had enough.If he stopped the chopsticks, Chen Wenxin would be embarrassed to eat again, wouldn't it be that she was starving.

The emperor felt that Chen Wenxin ate too much for one meal.

But she is only 14 years old, and when she is still growing, it shouldn't hurt to eat more.

When she is older, I will teach her to eat less to keep in good health.

He remembered last night, after the cloud and rain, he had to tell the eunuch not to stay.It's not that she is stingy with favor, but she is afraid that she is too young, and if she has children, it will be difficult to guarantee her longevity.

But Chen Wenxin was afraid of pain, so he begged him not to scrub.

The emperor said with pity: "Then do you want to give birth to a prince now?"

Of course Chen Wenxin didn't want to.

She is not yet ready to have a child, and if she does, she cannot use her 14-year-old body to give birth.

Thinking about it, thinking that these few days still belong to the "safe period", he pulled the emperor to bite his ear and told him the algorithm of the safe period and the dangerous period.

The emperor couldn't laugh or cry, and asked her where she heard the fallacy.

"When I was at home, I heard from a relative from Guangdong that foreigners always count in this way."

Chen Wenxin answered like this at the time.

A relative from Guangdong did come to their family, but it was just for the autumn breeze.

She thought that her father, Chen Xihai, must be rich if he worked in the palace, but he didn't expect her family to barely survive starvation.

The emperor was skeptical, and planned to find a chance to call the foreign painter in the palace and ask if Lao Shizi's safety period was true.

"Is the emperor not eating? Why do you keep staring at the concubine?"

Chen Wenxin took off the silk handkerchief on the lapel, and imprinted it on his lips, but there was no trace left on it.

The emperor was also taken aback, he seemed to stare at Chen Wenxin for a long time.

"It's beautiful and delicious, just looking at you is eating."

When the emperor talked sweet words, Li Dequan and Bai Lu, who were waiting on the side, bowed their heads and pretended not to hear.

There must be gold in the ground, and they were looking for gold.

Chen Wenxin blushed, knowing that the emperor was full, so she put down her chopsticks.

Anyway, she ate almost too much.
-
What a joy.

In the set of dishes, except for the pot of dark black-bone chicken soup, other dishes were ordered according to Chen Wenxin's taste.

Especially the eggplant with garlic, Chen Wenxin likes it the most.

The emperor took a sip and said hello, and then told Li Dequan:

"Appreciate the small kitchen. Then tell the people in the imperial dining room that from now on, Chen Changzai's orders will be delivered according to the order of the nobleman. No more black-bone chicken soup, but some good-looking soup."

The reward given to Chen Changzai earlier, the emperor ordered to follow the nobleman's rules.Li Dequan is not surprised, but what kind of soup is a good-looking soup?

Li Dequan thought for a while, the black-bone chicken is a bit black, but it is very good for women's physique.Since Chen Changzai finds it ugly, why don't you ask the imperial dining room to deliver white chicken soup?

It seems that there is no white chicken.

So every day after that, when Chen Wenxin ate, he would find that the soup was not the same.

Old hen wolfberry soup, corn sirloin soup, wild boar soup with red dates...

Ok.It's really pretty.

After the emperor once again stayed in the West Side Hall of Yonghe Palace, Chen Wenxin's place was very lively.
-
In the past few days since she moved to Yonghe Palace, she hasn't stopped.

Bai Lu ventured to wake Chen Wenxin up on time at eight o'clock, and Chen Wenxin twisted on the bed like a loach, avoiding Bai Lu's magic voice.

"Master, it's time to get up, Mr. Yigui is coming soon."

Mrs. Yigui just sent someone to send a post, saying that she would visit Chen Wenxin with Ma Chang.

"Yigui?"

Chen Wenxin repeated it in a daze. Although she had never heard of this name, she knew the nobleman.
-
One grade older than her.

Chen Wenxin felt that it should be taken seriously.

While helping her to wash and wash, Bai Lu told her about the situation of Yigui and Ma Chang.

Both of these two lived in the East Side Hall of Chengqian Palace of Concubine Tong Gui. Yigui's Guo Luoluo family was eighteen years old.Zhang Chang was in Zhang Jia's family and was sixteen years old.

Both of them are Manchurian women, and they have no children under their knees.

"They, come to visit me?"

It stands to reason that Yigui's rank is higher than hers, so she should pay her respects.

It's just that Chen Wenxin herself is not attentive, she didn't even go to pay respects to Concubine Tong and Concubine Hui, let alone take a noble person to heart.

Having met the empress concubine De, the lord of the Yonghe Palace, it is considered a complete rule.

From Debi's attitude, one can roughly guess that these girls don't like her, a new rich man.
-
Who would like their husband to spoil other women?

Chen Wenxin really didn't want to put his face on his butt and let the emperor's women beat him one by one.

What's more, if someone blames him, it only needs to say that the emperor has summoned him from time to time in the past few days, and he dare not disobey the holy order, so he really has no time to pay his respects to all the empresses.

But Mrs. Yigui came to the door on his own initiative, so he didn't come to slap her in the face, did he?
Seeing that she was thinking, Bai Lu thought she was worried, so she tried to persuade her:

"You don't need to be afraid, master. In the final analysis, you are not good enough to be called a concubine, and you are not far from her."

According to the ancestral system of the Qing Dynasty, there is one imperial concubine under the empress, two imperial concubines, four concubines, and six concubines.

The rest of the nobles, always present, promise, as many as you want.
-
None of them are famous people.

So Bai Lu said that she is not far from Yigui.

Another reason is that the emperor's favor and favor are all given to her as a noble person, which means that sooner or later she will be promoted to be a noble person.

"You said that Mrs. Yigui's mother's family name is Guo Luoluo, so the word Yi is a title bestowed by the emperor?"

Zhang Jia's family called Zhang Changzai, and he knew that he was called by his surname and had no title.

She went through the names of all the concubines in the palace in her mind, and found that only a low-ranking concubine, Mrs. Yigui, had the title.High-ranking concubines have titles, except...

Concubine Tong Gui with the highest status.

Tong Guifei's mother's family name is Tong Jia, and she is also called by her surname.

Chen Wenxin felt that he smelled a little trickery.If the emperor really valued Concubine Tong Gui, why didn't he even give her a title?
If you don't value it, why let her be at the top of the sixth house?
Chen Wen couldn't figure it out, but she guessed right.
-
Mrs. Yigui is indeed quite blessed.

She remembered that the emperor had gossiped with her yesterday and asked her why she always liked to gather the court ladies and eunuchs together in the room to joke.

She answered honestly, feeling that it was too wasteful for her to enjoy the iceberg alone, it would be better to let everyone cool off.It just happens to be able to talk and laugh, to relieve the tiredness in the afternoon.

Hearing the first half of her sentence, the emperor felt that the girl was too kind-hearted.After hearing the second half of the sentence, she thought that she was lonely in the palace for the first time, so she said:
"You are usually bored, you can also walk around with the sisters in the palace. Although Concubine De is close to you, I am afraid that her temper will not vote with you. Apart from Chuxiu Palace, the promises here are often nobles, and there are several people to talk to. of."

How dare she say that chatting with Bai Lu and the others is good, and she doesn't want to have more contact with other masters in the palace?

Nothing made the emperor think that she just likes to hang out with the minions.

Since Yigui and Ma Changzai came here on their own initiative, then she should entertain them well.

While eating breakfast, Chen Wenxin asked Bai Lu and the others what fruit to prepare and what tea to make later.The Little Table reported:

"Master, the eunuch Sun from the small kitchen came early in the morning and said he wanted to kowtow to the master. At that time, the master hadn't gotten up yet, so I sent him away. He was honest and kowtowed to the master's bedroom. I just left."

kowtow?Chen Wenxin suddenly thought, maybe the emperor rewarded him last night, and he put it in Chen Wenxin's account.

In fact, Eunuch Sun didn't just kowtow to Chen Wenxin, as soon as he received the reward last night, he went to kowtow to the emperor's Qianqing Palace.
-
Last night the emperor was in the Xipei Hall, of course Eunuch Sun knew.Just give him ten guts, and he didn't dare to bother at that time.

A spring night is worth a thousand gold.

"Since that's the case, let him make some snacks. Only pick some cool and delicious ones, not those dry cakes."

She felt that eunuch Sun's three dishes that imitated the imperial meal were cooked very well last night, so she intentionally accepted his flattery.

The little table brought this to the small kitchen, and sure enough, eunuch Sun was overjoyed, and called the small table Mr. Zhuo.

I want to invite him to drink tea and eat fruit.

There was no father-in-law in front of Chen Wenxin, only two eunuchs with a small table and chairs.So the two of them were also treated as Chen Wenxin's father-in-law by outsiders.

The little table hurriedly waved his hands and said:

"Don't worry about me, father-in-law, let's make some snacks quickly, our master is waiting. Let's talk about Yigui and Zhang Changzai coming later, it's not good if it's too late."

Eunuch Sun heard the words and said, "That's all."

I washed my hands and started making snacks.

After Chen Wenxin had breakfast, Yigui and Zhang Changzai came.

Standing outside her bedroom to greet her, she saw four daughters-in-law and two nuns, a large crowd surrounded by two brightly-dressed women approaching from a distance.

Chen Wenxin sized up the two of them, and the slender one wearing the peach red clothes should be Yigui, her hairpin rings were extraordinarily decorated, making Zhang Chang Zai in the autumn-colored clothes look a bit dim.

"Hey, this is sister Chen, right?"

Yigui stepped forward and took her hand, looked her up and down carefully, and said in a tsk tsk:
"It's really a frozen beauty."
