Harem: Biography of Concubine Qin

Chapter 153
It is impossible to say that Chen Wenxin doesn't care about Yu Changzai's favor.

The reason why she was still in the mood to play with the little table and the others was because she wanted to ease the tense atmosphere in Yikun Palace.

On this point, they should learn from the palace servants of Chengqian Palace.

As soon as Concubine Tong entered the palace, she was the noble concubine. She had never been promoted, not even given a title.

It can be said that apart from the status of imperial concubine, she has hardly ever received the slightest favor from the emperor.

Didn't the palace people of Chengqian Palace live their lives as usual, and no one was frightened or neglected their master.

It's like that Nanny Tang who served the fourth elder brother before, how arrogant she was.

Although she is not as high as Concubine Tong, she is still a concubine.Why should she be panicked when she promised to be named permanent presence?

It's all because she was favored too much in the past, but now the emperor favors others, the contrast is too obvious.

The palace people of Yikun Palace felt the gap from falling from the sky to the ground, so they were naturally terrified.

If they want to be unfavored from beginning to end like Concubine Tong, maybe they will be calmer.

The more it is like this, the more we can't let the Yikun palace get into chaos first.

Not to mention that her position is still there, even if she has nothing left, Chen Xihai's first-class guards are still there, and Chen Wenyi's General Wu Ji is still there.

She would absolutely not allow others to bully her.

Not for her own dignity, but also for her mother's family and the people around her.

Therefore, the palace people of Yikun Palace discovered that when their master fell out of favor this time of year, the rewards increased instead.

What Chen Wenxin admired was not gold, silver, jewellery, silk and satin, but something to relieve the heat.

Iced sour plum soup, iced watermelon, and all kinds of iced fruits.

Once these things are rewarded, she doesn't want anyone to thank them, she just asks them to eat while the food is still cold to relieve the heat.

The reward doesn't care how much money it's worth, what's rare is her thoughtfulness, which takes into account the hard work of the people in the hot weather palace.

Thinking of the rewards given by his master during festivals and festivals in the past, they were all a little bit thicker than other masters.

These iced foods are hard to come by outside, and they are worthless in Yikun Palace. After all, Yikun Palace has the emperor's will, and icebergs can be used at any time.

These palace people were eating melons and fruits, thinking about the privileges that the emperor gave to their masters, so they naturally settled down.

Chen Wenxin calmed down the hearts of everyone in Yikun Palace, and was about to prepare Concubine Hui's birthday gift.

June [-]th is Concubine Hui's birthday. At this time last year, Chen Wenxin was still staying in Chuxiu Palace.

This year, Concubine Hui has added the power of assistant to the harem. This status is more respected than before, and her birthday is also held even more grandly.

Except for Concubine Tong, who was above her, who was not able to attend and only sent congratulatory gifts, all the concubines in the He Palace attended.

Chen Wenxin also wanted to find an excuse not to come, but she had to.

One was afraid that Concubine Hui would think that she was deliberately neglecting her, which would hurt her feelings.

The most important thing is that she can't let others think that she has fallen out of favor, so she doesn't have the courage to come out to meet people.

Those who are interested will think that she is easy to bully and will crush her.

It's just that for this birthday gift, she didn't ask Bai Lu to do needlework so perfunctorily.

Since she wanted to make friends with Concubine Hui, how could the birthday gift she gave be at the same level as that given to Concubine Tong?

So she asked Bai Lu to search in the warehouse to find out the precious ornaments and playthings that were not rewarded by the emperor himself.

There are many things in her storeroom that the emperor personally rewarded, many things were sent by the House of Internal Affairs, and some things were sent to the palace by her mother's family.

Bai Lu chose a few to show her, one was the piece of suet white jade that Chen Wenyi carved a small seal for her, and the rest of the material happened to carve a plum blossom jade hairpin.

The other is the double-sided embroidery brought back from the Southern Tour, which is a whole bolt of Su satin embroidered with black bamboo in the color of concubine.

There is also a string of Buddha beads with [-] tourmalines, and a colorful glazed kang screen made of Western tribute.

Chen Wenxin hesitated for a while, and finally chose the double-sided embroidered satin.

The plum blossom jade hairpin was a gift from my second brother, and the small seal carved by my second brother on his birthday came from a piece of jade.

She was reluctant to give it away.

The remaining three items are very precious. If you think about it carefully, the double-sided embroidery is the most precious.

Concubine Hui has a high status after all, so giving the most precious thing to her will save the time of gifting it to others in the future, which will cause controversy.

She has seen Concubine Hui wearing concubine-colored clothes, and this color complements Concubine Hui, making her more dignified and elegant.

She ordered Bai Lu to choose an exquisite gift box to put it in, and on Concubine Hui's birthday, Bai Lu followed Chen Wenxin to the Changchun Palace with the gift box.

Changchun Palace is not as strict as Chengqian Palace, and concubines don't need to come early to pay their respects on Concubine Hui's birthday.

This morning, Zhang Chang came to Yikun Palace first.

Chen Wenxin was a little surprised, it was rumored in the palace that she had fallen out of favor for more than half a month.

Few people come to Yikun Palace these days, but Zhang Chang is here now.

She never thought that there was nothing wrong with being on good terms with her, or even being attached to her concubine, not coming to visit her.

Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong did not have such a good relationship with her. It should be said that she deliberately made friends with them.

It's just to prevent them from misunderstood that they favor the fourth elder brother and hurt the interests of other elder brothers.

Although Debi and Zhang Changzai are friends with her, they should be wise and protect themselves.

As for Wei's promise, she was originally not from the same group, but just wanted to lean against her big tree to enjoy the shade.

Now it is impossible to enjoy the cold, but it is like a hot pot boiling hot.

She naturally forgot about her big tree.

"Please concubine Jin An."

After Zhang Chang came in to salute, he left all the maids and nuns outside, and came up to hold her hand for a closer look.

"Seeing that you look good, I'm relieved."

Zhang Changzai did not alienate her at all, it was still the same as before.

Come to think of it, it wasn't because she fell out of favor that she didn't come to Yikun Palace?

Chen Wenxin pursed her lips, and said tentatively: "What are you talking about, why haven't you come to Yikun Palace for so long? My Yikun Palace has been neglected for more than half a month, and you are a rare visitor."

Zhang Changzai was surprised and said: "Why don't you come? The emperor favored me when Yu promised, and I have been here. I heard that you are very busy working as a master for the brothers recently, so I dare not bother you again."

"That's right, I think I, the servant of Yikun Palace, was not considerate and neglected you."

Zhang Changzai didn't dare to come after she came once, probably because the palace servants of Yikun Palace were dispirited and discouraged, which made her dare not come.

"I'll check who saw you right away, and I don't know who came to inform me, so bold!"

At that time, she hadn't thought that her palace servants would waver in their minds, and it was her fault that they didn't settle their minds in time.

Bai Lu led the order to go out, and after a while, a little maid came in with her neck shrunk.

As soon as she came in, she knelt down on the ground and kowtowed to admit her mistake, "Your servant is guilty. Zhang often came to see the master a few days ago, but my servant forgot to pass on the message to my master. Please forgive me, my servant will never dare again."

Seeing that the little maid was terrified, she just said to her: "You didn't inform me, I forgive you this time. I neglected Zhang Changzai's crime, and you will see if Zhang Changzai will forgive you."

Zhang Changzai knew that this was Chen Wenxin trying to show her power.

She asked the little palace maid to ask for forgiveness from herself, just to let the servants of Yikun Palace know that she would not dare to offend her in the future.

In this way, if he comes to Yikun Palace in the future, he will not be neglected.

The little maid turned to Zhang Changzai again, "I beg Zhang Changzai to spare this servant, this servant was lost for a while, and I will never dare again in the future."

Zhang Changzaiyuan is a talkative person, since she admitted her mistake, what else is there to pursue.

She then said to Chen Wenxin: "Since she has admitted her mistake, why don't you just let her go?"

"Since Zhang Changzai has forgiven you, you should step down. If you commit the crime again in the future, you will be punished together."

The little palace maid nodded her head, "The servant will not dare again in the future."

After she went out, Zhang Chang said with a smile: "What's the big deal? I'll know when I come back today. Yikun Palace is safe and sound, so I can rest assured."

She knew that Chen Wenxin must have used some method to calm the hearts of Yikun Palace.

It's no wonder the palace people, a favorite concubine of the sixth palace suddenly fell out of favor silently, who wouldn't be afraid?
Zhang Chang was also afraid at the beginning, always felt that the emperor's silent, like some great event.

Later she figured it out, the emperor was not a heartless person, and he didn't cut Chen Wenxin's supply either.

Come to think of it, it's not a big deal.

It is common for young couples to quarrel, the emperor and Chen Wenxin are so affectionate, it is impossible to say that they will fall out of favor.

Looking at Chen Wenxin's complexion, not only was she not worried about losing weight, but she was also plump compared to when she first returned to the palace from the Southern Tour, and she had regained her previous posture.

Chen Wen had lingering fears in his heart, "Fortunately, you didn't misunderstand. If you thought it was my intention because of the servant's negligence for a while, what would you do?"

Fortunately, Zhang Changzai was lenient and there was no misunderstanding, otherwise he would have lost a friend in vain.

If she misunderstood, wouldn't she be wronged?
I'm afraid outsiders will say that this concubine is still so arrogant after falling out of favor, I really don't know how much I weigh myself.

Misfortune caused Xiao Qiang, but fortunately she already had such a consciousness, first to stabilize the hearts of the people in her palace.

Zhang Chang said with a smile: "I don't know what kind of person you are? Besides, there are many rumors in the womb these days, even if it's your fault that girl's neglect, I will understand you."

Who wouldn't feel bad when he suddenly fell out of favor?If she feels bad, she should vent her anger on her close friends.

Chen Wenxin was at a loss for words for a moment, but she didn't know what to say.

She always thought that there were no real friends in the harem, so it was only natural that no one would visit her when she fell out of favor.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Changzai treated her with sincerity, and she almost put her in the same category as other concubines.

Thinking about it, if the one in this palace who really has no desire to compete for favor is probably Zhang Changzai, right?
The foodie alliance is really solid!
