Concubine Huang said she wanted to leave

Chapter 272
Fighting against concubine Jia, Shang Kelan ignored the existence of these concubines, she couldn't help but wondered: "How could this be?"

Harem concubines have always been unprofitable.

But Wan Dong couldn't help smiling, and while giving her the hairpin, said: "Your Majesty, it's different now, those concubines in the past were jealous of you being favored by His Majesty, so they gossiped about you behind your back, acting like a villain. But now everyone can see that you are His Majesty's favourite, so naturally they are rushing to curry favor with you."

"From the point of view of this servant, these concubines actually want to get a share of the pie from you, to ask for a reward in front of His Majesty, begging for a child or something!"

Wan Dong is the smartest among the four maidservants in the palace, and her analysis is clear and logical.

Shang Kelan couldn't help laughing, and said: "You girl, you know how to make fun of people, well, go out with me to have a look."

As soon as the words fell, Wan Dong helped Shang Kelan and walked outside.

"Concubine Chen is here!"

The servant's announcement sounded, and the hall was already filled with many maidservants, and now everyone saluted her with great respect and did not dare to show any disrespect.

"You are all my own sisters, you are welcome, please get up."

Shang Kelan said softly, the smile on her face gave people a sense of kindness, without making people feel majestic and alienated, it was completely different from her at the palace banquet.

She was wearing a pale pink dress and a cloak, as if she was very afraid of the cold.

But the bedroom was burning high-quality silver charcoal, so it looked very warm. Many concubines took off their cloaks to keep out the cold as soon as they entered.

All of them look fat and thin, with all kinds of beauties.

These are only the concubines who stayed in the palace before, and even half of them are saved, and this chair is filled with more than half of the concubines. If there is a draft outside Jin Yantang this year, I am afraid that even the Xianya Palace will not be able to accommodate them.

After saluting to Shang Kelan, all the concubines sat back under Shang Kelan's signal, and began to speak kind words to Shang Kelan one by one.

Some people talked about her personality, and some people talked about her appearance. They praised her like a flower, and the atmosphere seemed very warm.

When the atmosphere reached its climax, a concubine in blue palace clothes said enviously to Shang Kelan: "Oh, I am not as lucky as Sister Chen, who can not only be loved by His Majesty, but also be loved by the palace." It's really enviable that the people in the village love and love you so much, Your Majesty hasn't come to listen to Yuxuan for several months!"

As soon as these words came out, many concubines immediately echoed and said: "Yes, Your Majesty has not been here for a long time."

Immediately afterwards, Jia Zhaoyi laughed and said: "You people, you just can't eat grapes and say grapes are sour. Today we are here to visit the body of the concubine Chen, not to complain to the concubine Chen!"

Although Jia Zhaoyi said so, facing Shang Kelan, she still had some expectation in her eyes.

After all, they are both women, how could she not envy Shang Kelan?If she had no other purpose, she would not have come with these concubines this time.

These concubines are not like Shang Kelan and Concubine Jia. The two of them have already reached a high position in the harem. Of course, they can do their own thing and don't need to talk to others.

But these concubines are different. They live cautiously in the harem. Because survival is not easy, they will report to the group to keep warm and form a group.

If he accidentally provoked them, even Shang Kelan would accidentally be bitten off by them.

It's just that the power of the harem and the seal of the phoenix are both in the hands of Shang Kelan, so things are different.

As soon as they finished talking, Shang Kelan smiled slightly and calmly said to everyone: "It's not that my palace doesn't know about the sisters' requests, it's just that your majesty is busy with government affairs. The sisters must have heard of it too, right? Concubine Jia and the former princess were originally the same person, and now His Majesty is worrying about this matter."

"I am not afraid to tell everyone bluntly, if anyone can make Concubine Jia to take the initiative to admit that she is the former princess, His Majesty will definitely treat her favorably."

Who wouldn't want His Majesty's attention?Who doesn't want to stand out in front of His Majesty?The answer is, everyone wants to.

When Shang Kelan said these words, and his tone and demeanor did not seem to be fake, for a while, many concubines were moved.

It's just that this concubine Jia, as a first-rank noble concubine, is naturally not easy to provoke, and she is backed by the queen mother.

Therefore, although this is an opportunity for them to stand out in front of His Majesty, and these people are really tempted, none of them dare to respond.

Shang Kelan just sat in the main seat, skipped this topic, and drank tea and pastries with everyone, as if what she said just now was just a casual mention.

At this moment, a maidservant wearing a blue jacket came in, and she stood at the door, first bowed to the concubine Chen and all the ladies, and then said: "The slave girl Wanqin sees the concubine Chen, and I give it to all the ladies." Please."

This Wanqin is the maid in charge of the Compassionate Ning Palace, the first-class servant girl next to the Empress Dowager, everyone knows her.

It's just that everyone is curious, how could she come to Xianya Palace at this hour?
Hearing Wanqin's quick response, he said to Shang Kelan: "The empress dowager ordered that the empress dowager Chen come to see her at the Palace of Compassion."

Since it was a verbal order, Shang Kelan had to stand up and salute, saying: "My concubine obeys the order, and I would like to ask Miss Wanqin to reply, I will talk to you later."

Seeing that Shang Kelan was about to leave, these concubines hadn't found any way to meet His Majesty from her, and they all wanted to follow behind Concubine Chen.

"Speaking of which, we sisters haven't visited the Empress Dowager for a long time. Today, everyone is convinced by the Concubine Chen, so let's go with the Concubine Chen to see the Empress Dowager!"

The crowd didn't know who said this, and many people immediately echoed it.

Wan Qin received Shang Kelan's reply, and waited for her to go to the Compassionate Palace with her in the Xianya Palace.

Shang Kelan did not refuse these concubines who wanted to go to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, but instead sent them an invitation to visit the Empress Dowager at the Palace of Compassion and Ning.

Afterwards, Shang Kelan returned to the bedroom on the pretext of changing clothes.

After sitting down in the bedroom, Wan Dong brought her another piece of clothes to change into, but she was still a little puzzled: "Your Majesty, it's all right, what did the Empress Dowager ask you to go to the Palace of Compassion?"

Shang Kelan curled her lips into a smile, touched her face in the mirror and said, "Probably because of Concubine Jia's face, my palace's provocation in front of Concubine Jia must have angered her, Your Majesty will not talk to her, she Naturally, the Empress Dowager was found."

All the reasoning seems to be the case, but Wan Dong said a little unfairly: "The empress dowager is too partial to the concubine Jia, obviously you are the most honorable empress in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and also your Majesty's favorite person. "

Patting Wan Dong's hand, Shang Kelan signaled her not to think too much, then changed her clothes, and took these concubines along with Wanqin to the Compassionate Ning Palace.

It's just that when Wanqin saw that Shang Kelan brought so many people, she was a little surprised and embarrassed, but seeing Shang Kelan's calm expression, she still didn't say anything after all.
