The king's arrogant and poisonous concubine

Chapter 54

Su Ye didn't quite understand the meaning of these words, but he still conveyed the original words to his master.

Yun Qing glanced at the plate of pastries in bewilderment, and her mood suddenly brightened.Picking up a piece of mung bean cake, Yun Qing carefully opened it, and there was indeed another mystery inside.

Chuxiu Palace.

"It's been a few days, and I haven't seen any rewards from above. What's the reason?"

"We have been in the palace for a long time, and we haven't even seen the face of the emperor..."

"Sigh... Once you enter the palace gate, it's as deep as the sea, maybe you will die of old age in this palace..."

Since entering the palace, the show girls have been learning the rules from the nuns in the Chuxiu Palace, staying for more than a month.But even though they were all winners of the selection, they couldn't even take a step through the palace gate all day long, let alone see the emperor.

Shen Yifang's originally calm and peaceful expression gradually became tinged with melancholy.With a high self-esteem, she thought that as long as she entered the palace, she could win a place in this gorgeous harem by virtue of her talent and appearance, and become a master in one fell swoop, bringing glory to the family.But as the days passed, her strong self-confidence began to shake, her whole person became lifeless, and her mind gradually cooled down.

Because he was thinking about his family, he sent some money to someone to inquire about the news from outside the palace.But it was okay not to inquire about it, but what she brought back was not the good and the bad of the Shen family, but a lot of messy things, which made her feel very depressed.Those who succeed more than fail will add to her troubles.She has not yet become a concubine, but she has been influenced by her family. If she wants to climb up in the future, she will have to spend a lot of effort.

While he was secretly annoyed, he suddenly heard a commotion outside, and then he heard the well-behaved nanny urging the beautiful girls to go out to receive the order.

"Could it be that the canonized imperial decree has been issued?" The show girls blushed with excitement, hurriedly arranged their appearance, and went out to receive the decree in a proper manner.

The father-in-law who announced the decree looked at the beautiful girls kneeling on the ground with contempt in his eyes.Clearing his throat, the tall eunuch with his chin raised slowly unfolded the bright yellow scroll and read it word by word.

"Following the fate of heaven, the emperor said: Shunchang Hou's eldest granddaughter, Shi Shiqiaoyun, is beautiful and intelligent, with a dignified appearance, and canonized as Concubine Yun; Zhou's Minghui, the second daughter of Anguo Duke's mansion, is dignified and elegant, gentle and honest, canonized as Concubine Hui; Han Shiyinger, the daughter of the Crown Prince Taifu, possesses both ability and political integrity..."

The show girl whose name was being read had excitement in her eyes, but she didn't dare to show it too obviously. She kowtowed and thanked her, but the smugness at the corner of her mouth couldn't be ignored, and it was very eye-catching.

Shen Yifang has been waiting patiently, kneeling there like a statue of Guanyin Buddha.In her opinion, those women who are not as good as her can be enshrined in high positions, so those who are as outstanding as her will naturally not be left behind.But after waiting and waiting, until the eunuch gently closed the scroll in his hand without hearing her name, she couldn't help but become curious.

"The nobles who read their names, the nuns should take good care of them. As for the others, follow the miscellaneous family."

It took Shen Yifang a while to come back to her senses, she hurriedly stood up from the ground, took out a piece of silver from her sleeve, caught up with the father-in-law who announced the decree, and tentatively said with pleading eyes: "Grandpa, you have worked hard... this piece of silver Just give it to the father-in-law to buy wine and drink."

"He knows the rules." The father-in-law weighed the money in his hand, and his expression improved a little. "Tell me, what's the matter?"

Shen Qifang took this opportunity and asked in a low voice: "Excuse me, father-in-law, is there any mistake in this edict, or is there something missing?"

Hearing what she said, the father-in-law's face suddenly sank again. "You bold woman, dare to doubt the imperial decree, don't you want to live?"

"Father, forgive me." Shen Qifang couldn't help but panic when she saw him suddenly raise her voice, and hurriedly begged for mercy: "Minister is unintentional, please bypass me this time. Wrong, what did you hear wrong, this is..."

After hearing her justification, what else does the father-in-law not understand?I'm afraid he was unwilling to be given the title by the emperor, right?He has seen a lot of women like this.But for the sake of that piece of silver, he could be kind enough to tell her the truth. "After the girl entered the palace, is there anything wrong, or has she offended someone?"

Although Shen Yifang's appearance was not the prettiest among all the beautiful girls, it was still one of the best.Such a beautiful woman was not selected, fearing that she offended the nobles above and suffered a dull loss.

Shen Yifang's heart shuddered, and she couldn't help recalling carefully.

Since entering the palace, she has always abided by her duties, and she has not said anything wrong or offended anyone?
Seeing her lost in thought, the father-in-law shook his head, and said to the beautiful ladies behind him who were secretly wiping away their tears: "What are you still doing? Why don't you hurry up and keep up."

Shen Qifang felt a chill in her heart, and her whole body couldn't help trembling slightly.

Her results should not be like this!

Based on her talent and appearance, shouldn't she be ranked as a concubine and become a favorite concubine under one person and above ten thousand?Why didn't even her name appear in the imperial decree?She is not reconciled, not reconciled.

"Elder-in-law... where are we going?" A weak-looking daughter mustered up her courage and asked in a low voice.

The father-in-law turned his head away, glared at the woman fiercely, and said: "Just follow along, why are there so many nonsense. Can the palace be short of your food and clothing?"

If you can't be a concubine, you can only be a court lady!This consciousness reverberated in Shen Yifang's mind, making her heart beat even harder.How could she, the daughter of a direct descendant of a dignified family of imperial physicians, be reduced to a lowly court lady who was called around by others?How can her pride, her self-esteem be accepted?
"No...it's not like this...why did it happen...I'm not reconciled, I want to see the emperor..." Shen Yifang yelled out of control when her dreams for many years were shattered.

"Seeing the emperor? Who do you think you are? Does the emperor be able to see anyone?" The guard in charge of guarding Chuxiu Palace saw someone making trouble, so he stepped forward to hold her up and reprimanded her sympathetically.

Shen Yifang struggled, without the slightest demeanor of a lady, and became the object of ridicule by everyone.

"Looking at her appearance, I thought she was really noble..."

"On weekdays, I pretend to be like something, I don't care about people, I think I have so much ability, I didn't expect that I don't even have the title of beauty..."

"It's true that people are more beautiful than flowers, and lives are thinner than paper..."

Those who had disliked Shen Yifang before and those who were jealous of her appearance all jumped out now, covering their mouths and laughing wantonly.
