Concubine Huang said she wanted to leave

Chapter 74 Gathering in Xianya Palace

In the huge imperial study room, as soon as Jin Yantang finished speaking, Fu Pu showed a worried expression.

"Your Majesty, I'm going to the Xianya Palace again tonight. I'm afraid the other empresses will complain..."

Your Majesty has been staying in the Xianya Palace for several days in a row, rewarding Concubine Chen with some weird gadgets from time to time, and the relationship with Concubine Chen has become deeper, but the rest of the concubines have even greater complaints against Concubine Chen and His Majesty up.

It's just that Jin Yantang ignored him, and just wrote lightly: "Do as I tell you."

Fupu's heart skipped a beat, he didn't dare to say anything, he hurriedly bowed and retreated.

At this time, in Xianya palace.

In the dormitory, ice cubes are displayed all around, with a sense of coolness.

Shang Kelan was wearing a light pink off-the-shoulder dress and was lying on the beauty couch, holding a beauty fan in her hand, her eyes were wide open, and she was looking at the ceiling thinking of something.

She murmured: "Before I knew it, it's been almost two months since I entered the palace, and tomorrow is the first day of July!"

At this time, Zhizi opened the bead curtain and walked in. Yuan Ge walked with her, both holding a stack of ledgers in their hands.

But these books are not the bad debts of the Eastern Palace, but the real books they just brought back from Concubine Ning's bedroom!

The various expenditures of the East Palace are recorded in detail above.

Shang Kelan stood up, looked at them and asked in confusion, "Where did you go?"

Zhizi replied: "Your Majesty, just now the servants and Yuan Ge went to the East Palace to get the account books. You forgot that the Empress Dowager told you to manage the affairs of the East Palace?"

Suddenly enlightened, Shang Kelan stepped forward to look through these ledgers, then lay back on the beauty's couch, and said leisurely, "You can deal with these matters with Yuan Ge."

Yuan Ge took out a seal from his sleeve and said to Shang Kelan: "Your Majesty, this is the official seal of the Eastern Palace. Please keep it. Besides, the bad debts in these books have already been sorted out by the servants, and they just went to the Eastern Palace. At that time, I met Yuan, the female official in charge of the Eastern Palace, and the chief eunuch of the Eastern Palace, but they were demoted following the downfall of Concubine Ning."

Shang Kelan had some reflections on these two people. Not long ago, when the nuns and eunuchs in charge of the Eastern Palace came to hand over affairs with her, these two people did not come.

Unexpectedly, only a few days later, the two of them did not even show their faces in front of her, and they ended up like this.

She nodded, and smiled slightly at Yuan Ge: "Okay, Ben Gong knows, let's put it in the makeup box."

Zhi Zi saw that Shang Kelan was bored in the house all summer, unable to do without ice, and did not go out for a walk, so she couldn't help saying to her helplessly: "Mother, don't be bored in the house all day, Other empresses practice singing, dancing and female celebrity all day long to maintain their figure and skills, but you do nothing but eat, drink and have fun."

Hearing this, Shang Kelan stuck out her tongue at her, and then lay back on the beauty bed, ready to take a nap.

Zhi Zi and Yuan Ge sat in front of the Eight Immortals table and checked the tall stack of account books.

Since the empress does not act, they have to do these chores instead of the empress!

But not long after Shang Kelan lay down, Wen Chun opened the curtain and walked in, and hurriedly said: "Jia Zhaoyi from the East Palace, Tang Guiren from the Central Palace, and Sumerian from the South Palace all brought gifts to see you!"

Yuan Ge and Zhi Zi looked at each other when they heard the words.

But Shang Kelan frowned, took down the fan in dissatisfaction, and said, "Wen Chun, it would be nice if you came in a quarter of an hour late? By then, Ben Gong would have fallen asleep!"

Shang Kelan didn't like dealing with these harem concubines.

Just two months after entering the palace, Concubine Ning asked for trouble and was defeated by her. Concubine Hua also disliked her very much. These concubines have always come to visit her for various reasons these two days when they saw her in her hands Quite a few times.

Just the empress from Zhonggong, she has to deal with seven or eight of them every day.

It seems that Concubine Ning was pregnant and favored at the time, so she had to deal with so many concubines every day, right?It's just that she may not only feel tired like Shang Kelan, but more proud.

After all, there are so many beauties in the harem, who wouldn't want to be the most favored one?
Yuan Ge thought for a while, and reminded: "Your Majesty, when dealing with these concubines, you must be cautious in your words and deeds, and you must not let them catch anything."

Zhi Zi wasn't very worried about Shang Kelan, she just called Wan Dong in and asked Wan Dong to dress Shang Kelan.

There is no need for Shang Kelan to order a lot of things, and the maids around him can handle these trivial things in an orderly manner.

A while later, Wandong tied Shang Kelan's dignified bun, put on a golden step for her, and changed into a light blue palace dress embroidered with begonias and brocade, and waited for Shang Kelan to put on the light blue satin embroidered butterfly After removing the shoes, he helped Zhizi and walked out.

Inside the hall.

A dozen or so concubines sat on the left and right, and Zhiqiu ordered someone to serve them refreshments, and then stood aside to wait for orders.

These palace concubines sat together in harmony, whispering to each other from time to time, seeming to say something, and there was a coquettish laugh from their mouths.

"Concubine Chen is here!"

After Zhizi announced, the concubines immediately fell silent.

They all looked towards the entrance at the same time, only to see a light blue figure approaching.

All the concubines stood up immediately, bowed their knees respectfully and said: "The concubine sees the concubine Chen!"

After sitting down on the main seat, Shang Kelan raised his hand to everyone, and said with a smile: "Everyone is the sisters of the harem with me, so there is no need to be polite, please get up quickly."

"Concubine Xie Chen!"

As soon as she sat down, Jia Zhaoyi, who was dressed in a pale pink dress, smiled and said to Shang Kelan: "Sister Chenfei's tea in the palace is delicious, it smells fragrant but not astringent, everyone says that the tea is like a person, from this tea The concubine Zhongchen saw that Sister Chenfei must be a gentle and magnanimous person!"

The boast was so obvious that a smile flashed in Shang Kelan's eyes.

She pressed the corner of her mouth with a scented handkerchief, and said with a smile: "Jia Zhaoyi really has a sweet mouth, maybe she ate honey when she came here?"

As she spoke, she took a look at Zhiqiu, and Zhiqiu turned around and ordered someone to bring a stack of iced melons and fruits in front of Jia Zhaoyi.

Jia Zhaoyi was flattered, and after eating a piece of watermelon, she smiled and said to Shang Kelan: "Sister Chenfei is heavenly and beautiful, no wonder His Majesty favors you alone, I am really envious of you, my sister got a beautiful red hairpin a few days ago , is matching the dress of Concubine Chen today, so I want to borrow flowers to present Buddha."

Saying so, the maidservant next to Jia Zhaoyi respectfully presented a gift box.

Zhizi stepped forward to bow to Jia Zhaoyi, then took the box and brought it in front of Shang Kelan.

When I opened it, I saw a red agate hairpin inlaid with silver twigs lying on the bright yellow silk cloth, which looked really eye-catching.

Beautiful, yet stylish!

As expected, Shang Kelan's eyes lit up, and he reached out and took the agate hairpin to look at it, looking like he couldn't put it down.

Then she said happily to Jia Zhaoyi: "Sister Jia is so generous, I am a little embarrassed."

While combing, Shang Kelan glanced at Yuan Ge again, and Yuan Ge turned around and entered the side hall, and brought a gift box that had been prepared in front of Jia Zhaoyi.

"Jia Zhaoyi, this is my mother's gift in return."
