The Self-cultivation of the Noble Concubine Who Eats Melon

  Chapter 125 126: Hurt people, hurt eyes and hurt

   Sending Feng Yunjin and Han Jinyi away, Song Yunzhao also felt that this matter was too strange.

  I vaguely feel that Qin Xiyue may have something to do with the fact that the Empress Dowager's early return to the palace was mentioned in the court. This is an intuition without evidence.

  She is walking sideways in the harem now, but there is no chance for anyone to catch her and punish her. No matter who she is, there is nothing she can do.

  Under such circumstances, it is undoubtedly a good way to ask for foreign aid.

  In addition to Qin Xiyue, Concubine Zhuang may also have come up with such a solution. The two had only drank tea together, and maybe they were discussing how to deal with her.

  Thinking about it like this makes her unhappy. If she is unhappy, then they should not be happy either.

  Song Yunzhao was deep in thought, but Xiangxue and the others did not dare to make any noise, even walking on tiptoes, for fear of disturbing the master's thoughts.

  Nurse Yu came back from the outside, seeing the situation, she didn't go straight into the hall, but grabbed Shi Zhu and asked, "What's the matter, everyone looks like a thief."

  Shi Zhu dragged Madam Yu to the small tea room, and then said softly: "Just now Feng Xiaoyuan told Concubine Han that the courtiers asked the emperor to take the queen mother back to the palace for the reunion year."

   Nanny Yu frowned when she heard this. This is not good news, "Is this news accurate?"

   "It should be accurate, but there is no movement from the emperor's side, so I can't say what will happen." Shi Zhu said.

  These people have been in the palace for many years. Although Shi Zhu and the others have not been in the palace for a long time, they also know some things about the past. Madam Yu is much older than them, so naturally she knows more about the empress dowager and the emperor when the first emperor was in power.

   Some knots can't be untied all at once.

   "It's almost the Chinese New Year. If we rush to bring the empress dowager back at this time, I'm afraid the empress dowager will not be able to bear it on the way, so it may not be possible." Yu Yu turned around and left after speaking.

  Dianthus has always been reasonable. If it can be delayed for a few months, the return of the empress dowager to the palace is equivalent to having an extra big Buddha on her head, and life is difficult.

  Nurse Yu entered the hall, stepped forward slowly and said, "Master."

   Song Yunzhao turned his head when he heard Mammy Yu's voice, "Mammy is back, how are things going?"

   "The imperial hospital sent an imperial doctor to Chen Chongyi's side. The old slave followed him a little worried. When he saw Chen Chongyi, he was really shocked. It's only been a few months, and he's so skinny." Nanny Yu said.

  Song Yunzhao knew that life would not be easy for a concubine who entered the cold palace, but he didn't want to just grind into this state, "Is someone deliberately making things difficult for Chen Chongyi?"

   "This old slave didn't ask carefully." Nanny Yu looked helpless, "However, if no one instructed, Chen Chongyi would definitely not live like this."

  Song Yunzhao understood what Nanny Yu meant, that was someone instructed her.

  Nurse Yu said again in a low voice: "At any rate, Chen Chongyi still has a position as a clothing store. Although the three meals a day are simple, they can still satisfy his hunger. Even if there are servants who cheat, they will not be so hungry. From the old slave's point of view, this is not just a problem of cheating on Chen Chongyi, but a deliberate target. This matter involves Qin Wanyi's poisoning, and the old slave dare not talk too much, for fear of causing trouble to the master."

  Song Yunzhao chuckled, looked at Nanny Yu and said, "I'm afraid someone wants to kill people to silence them."

   "Master, you must not mention this to the outside world. It will be serious if it is spread without evidence." Yu Yu hurriedly persuaded.

  Song Yunzhao sneered, "Nurse, don't worry."

  She is not stupid, Chen Chongyi is pitiful, but if she hadn't thought about borrowing Qin Xiyue's power back then, how could she be used by Qin Xiyue instead.

  These two were a nest of snakes and rats, Song Yunzhao felt sorry for Chen Chongyi, but if Chen Chongyi had succeeded in attracting the emperor's favor and favor, wouldn't it be pitiful for her to fall out of favor?

   There is a fixed number of pecks and drinks.

   No wonder who.

  The winner is the king, and the loser is the bandit.

  However, it is definitely impossible to let this matter be exposed like this. Since she suspects that Qin Xiyue is causing trouble for her, she can naturally use this matter to make her feel dirty.

   "Mother, release the news of Chen Chongyi's harsh treatment. There is no need to hide it. Since I, Wangyou Palace, helped Chen Chongyi hire the imperial physician, I will spread the matter openly. I will see what the people hiding in the dark will do this time." Song Yunzhao said.

  Nurse Yu didn't agree with it at first, but when she thought that it was indeed the imperial physician invited by Wangyou Palace, she knew it after an investigation, and there was really no need to cover it up.

   And it can also create a kind-hearted image of Jieyu. After all, Chen Chongyi's affairs are something that everyone can't avoid. Only they, Jieyu, are willing to help. Isn't this a kind person?

  Since we have to do it, we should naturally do it well, and we can't let Jieyu's effort be in vain.

  Feng Xiaoyuan’s credit cannot be wiped away. Why did the girl next to Chen Chongyi beg Feng Xiaoyuan?

  Of course it is because Feng Xiaoyuan is also a good person.

  It’s okay to gather good people together.

  Nurse Yu immediately agreed, and then talked about the Empress Dowager, "Although the palace is not too far from the capital, the weather is extremely cold. I am afraid that the empress dowager's body will not be able to bear this journey. Besides, the empress dowager swore to serve the late emperor for six years and copied Buddhist scriptures for six years. How could these courtiers make the empress dowager a dishonest person?"

  Song Yunzhao looked at Mammy Yu with relief, "Mama Yu is right, we must not let the Empress Dowager become such a treacherous person."

   People are old and smart, Yu Nanny's words make sense, and she grasped it from the general point of view.

  The courtiers said that the queen mother and the emperor could reunite and enjoy family happiness, but what about the reputation of the queen mother?

  Song Yunzhao had an idea in his mind, but he couldn't go to the emperor and say that, isn't this place without three hundred taels of silver?

  The image she created in the emperor's heart cannot collapse, not to mention that the emperor is angry with the courtiers, maybe he will find himself to relieve the mood, she just waits.

   When Nanny Yu went to handle Chen Chongyi's affairs, she also had to pay attention to disseminating the news. She couldn't be seen as deliberate, and everyone had to know about it. It would take a little effort.

  Song Yunzhao read the scripts in the study for a while. Zhang Maoquan sent a lot of scripts this time, but because of the previous snowstorm, everyone couldn’t go out to do things. The scripts accumulated a lot, and she used them to pass the time.

  Seeing that the sky was getting dark, she got up and went back to the dormitory. She changed into a warm dress. The light yellow shone under the light, making people look gentle.

  Break up the bun, and asked Xiangxue to tie her a bun that looked very casual, but it didn't affect her beauty at all, and picked out a jade hairpin from the last emperor for her.

  Looking in the mirror at her casual and exquisite self, she nodded with satisfaction, and finally thought about it, and picked out another pair of pearl earrings to wear. The thumbnail-sized beads fell on both sides of her cheeks, adding a bit of softness.

  Xiangxue carefully put the other things into the dowry box, and tidied up the dressing table. Hearing the sound of greetings from outside, she hurriedly got up and went out.

  Song Yunzhao expected that the emperor would come, but he was not sure. Now that the people really came, the joy was really unstoppable, and he rushed over like a butterfly.

  Feng Yi was in a very bad mood today. Seeing Song Yunzhao who was full of joy, the joy really overflowed from between her eyebrows and eyes, which made his cold thoughts warm.

   "I wanted to come over to see you, so I came." Feng Yi took off his coat, Zhang Maoquan immediately reached out to take it, and then backed out with his head bowed.

   Song Yunzhao held the emperor's hand, which was a little cold, so he held his hand with his own, "It's too cold today, the emperor wants to see me, so let someone send a message, and I will go to the front hall."

  Feng Yi heard this and looked at Song Yunzhao, "Aren't you cold after walking all the way?"

   "I can sit in the warm sedan chair, but the emperor will definitely not sit if he finds it troublesome." Song Yunzhao said.

  The coldness of Feng Yi's fingertips slowly dissipated in Yun Zhao's palm. If everyone is as understanding as she is, then he, the emperor, will feel at ease.

   "I'm not willing to let you suffer the cold." Feng Yi said with a smile.

  Song Yunzhao:…

   This love story counts him as a pass!

   "Did the emperor have dinner?"

  Feng Yi nodded, ate a little, and had no appetite, then looked at Yun Zhao and asked, "Where's you?"

   "The concubine didn't know the emperor was coming, so she used it a long time ago." Song Yunzhao said with a smile, in order to maintain her figure, she usually eats very little for dinner, but when the emperor comes, she always eats a little more with him.

   "Then you talk to me."

  Song Yunzhao nodded, and the exclusive Jieyuhua went online.

   "Has something happened to the emperor? Why do you look unhappy?" Song Yunzhao asked with concern, "Is it because of the empress dowager's return to the palace?"

  The emperor looked sideways at Song Yunzhao, "Have you heard?"

  Song Yunzhao nodded, this harem is like a sieve, it is not difficult at all to get news.

  The emperor has no intention of rectifying the harem at the moment, he clearly does not intend to do it now, and he is holding back a big move behind him.

   "The news spread quickly." Feng Yi smiled, but he didn't mean to pursue it. The door of the harem doesn't need to be closed yet, so it's not surprising that the news came in.

   "The emperor is magnanimous." Song Yunzhao replied with a smile.

   "What do you think about the Empress Dowager returning to the palace?" Feng Yi looked at Song Yunzhao and asked.

  Song Yunzhao thought about it, and immediately said; "I don't have any ideas, but I think the courtiers are not very sensible. In such a cold day, the Empress Dowager is already old, and she rushed back to the capital in the wind and snow. What if she is sick from the cold? The courtier said that His Majesty was reunited with the Empress Dowager, mother and child, but ignored the Empress Dowager's body and health. It is really unreasonable."

   Speaking of this, the voice changed, and he looked at the emperor again and said: "The concubine entered Beijing late, and there are many things that I don't understand. It happened that Feng Xiaoyuan and Han Guifei came to me to drink tea and talk. I asked them, and then I learned that the empress dowager made a great wish to serve the late emperor for six years, copying Buddhist scriptures and offering them to the Buddha. The empress dowager is sincere to the late emperor. How can these people make the empress dowager treacherous? It shouldn't be."

  Feng Yi glanced at Song Yunzhao, then at her again, couldn't help laughing, stretched out his hand to pinch her fair and tender face.

  Song Yunzhao:…

   How many meanings?

  Feng Yi looked at Song Yunzhao with a suspicious expression on his face, and even laughed heartily.

  Song Yunzhao thought to himself that the emperor was driven mad by the courtiers, right? What's so funny about this, she also thinks that Madam Yu's suggestion is quite good, the angle is very clear.

  Feng Yi thought that it was not in vain to come to Yun Zhao, but the courtiers pressed him with filial piety, trying to make him yield and take the Queen Mother back to Beijing. He hated and rejected this matter very much, but he didn't expect Yun Zhao to refute it from such an angle. It is very reasonable to use a small one to make a big deal, so how could he not be happy.

   Sure enough, it's about matters between women in the harem, so you should ask Ce harem.

  The method of chanting scriptures and copying scriptures, the emperor knows best, is just a means of oppressing and bullying people in the harem. Back then, the queen mother was not favored by the late emperor, and the late emperor's favored concubines and queens often made the queen mother copy scriptures and kneel.

  The scriptures are really best to use the most righteous, most sincere, and most hypocritical guise.

  Feng Yi looked at Song Yunzhao, she was really his little lucky star, it seemed that the difficult matter was easily solved when it fell to her.

  Song Yunzhao watched the emperor smile and frown for a while, maybe he was mad and stupid?

   "Next year the Empress Dowager will return to live in the Palace."

   Song Yunzhao heard this sentence when he was slandering the emperor. He looked up at the emperor, his eyes were as calm as water, without the slightest joy or rejection, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

  Knowing that the relationship between the emperor and the queen mother is not good, those cold words in the book are far less powerful than the eyes of this person in front of him.

  The same is true between her and Cai Shi, enough disappointment and anger made her treat Cai Shi like a stranger now, she doesn't care at all whether she is good or bad.

  Not only Cai, but also Song Qinghan and Song Yanyue are strangers to her.

  In the future, even if Song Qinghan or Song Yanyue suffered severe beatings from the society, became sober in human nature, or were lowered by reality and tried to reconcile with her, she would still dismiss them.

   Some damage has already been done, and it cannot be erased just by changing it.

  The only thing she can do now is that as long as they don't come to provoke her, everyone can live in peace.

  So now, she can understand the emperor's mood at the moment.

  Can't get rid of it, because it's the biological mother.

  However, being unable to let go does not mean being restrained.

  Song Yunzhao thought of this, looked at the emperor with a smile and said, "It's a good thing for the empress dowager to return to the palace. Don't worry, the emperor. With so many concubines in the palace, they will definitely make the empress dowager happy."

  Feng Yi looked down at Yun Zhao, how could he fail to understand what she meant, others would definitely try to coax the Queen Mother, but she wouldn't, she was on his side.

  Feng Yi fished her over and hugged her into his arms, just wanting to hug her quietly.

  Song Yunzhao leaned on the emperor's heart, listening to his strong heartbeat, feeling the strength conveyed from his arms.

  Even if he is the emperor at this moment, before he became emperor, he had been a prince who was not valued for more than ten years, a prince who was bullied by other siblings and concubines.

  Where is the mother of the bullied person?

  She did not protect her child, and even disliked that the child could not win glory for her, could not win the favor of the emperor for her, and turned a blind eye to this child, only thinking about how to win favor.

   What qualifications does such a mother have to be called a mother?

  A person like Cai who regards his own flesh and blood as a thorn in his side, who has the right to let her glory be added to her, why should she be filial to her?

  Filial piety, filial piety and obedience, dreams are faster!

   "Your Majesty, which palace will the Empress Dowager live in after returning to the palace?"

  Feng Yi listened to Song Yunzhao's muffled voice, and let him out with a smile, "Naturally, it's Shouci Palace."

  Song Yunzhao is very satisfied. In the book, the Empress Dowager also lives in Shouci Palace, that is to say, the Wangyou Palace where she lives is just a diagonal line from Shouci Palace. She is in the southeast corner of the palace, and the empress dowager lives in the northwest corner of the palace. Both the horizontal and vertical distances are the farthest.

   Simply perfect.

  The first emperor had no empress dowager on his head, so there was no palace where the empress dowager lived.

  Shouci Palace is a palace specially vacated by Feng Yi after he ascended the throne. He personally wrote the plaque of Shouci Palace and hung it up. Everyone outside praised his mother for his kindness and filial piety.

  Love mother, loving mother, the empress dowager was not kind to the emperor, but the emperor chose this word as the name of the empress dowager's palace, don't you think it's funny?

  Ma Pizhao went online immediately, and said with a smile on his face: "The Shouci Palace is very quiet, and it occupies an exclusive space and is spacious. It will not disturb the Empress Dowager's worship of Buddha, but also allow the Empress Dowager to live comfortably. The emperor's filial piety to the Empress Dowager moved the concubines greatly."

  Feng Yi:...

   Needless to say it's so hypocritical, Song Yunzhao's big flickering eyes clearly knew that he had a bad relationship with the Queen Mother, mother and son.

  Being able to speak of his little thoughts so openly, even if Feng Yi felt that he had a thick skin, he couldn't hold back her flattery at the moment.

  Song Yunzhao thought that all good people have done it, and they must be perfect, and no one can pick mistakes, so he said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the Shouci Palace has been unoccupied for a long time. Not only does it need to be cleaned, but also the furnishings and utensils inside need to be selected. If the emperor is free, the ministers and concubines will accompany the emperor to choose. After the empress dowager returns to the palace, she must be very moved."

  It doesn't matter if the queen mother is moved or not, it is mainly for the courtiers to see, so that the courtiers cannot find fault with the emperor's filial piety to the queen mother.

  Feng Yi thought it was really a good idea to blow the trumpet under the door to gain a reputation, so he immediately agreed.

   He is very willing to cooperate with a move that doesn't require much effort, time and effort, and can still win a good reputation.

   "What Zhao Zhao said makes sense, so I will do as you say."

   Song Yunzhao rolled his eyes in his heart, now she has become the emperor's caring concubine Xiao Zhaozhao again.

   On the second day at the court hall, the emperor announced in public that the weather was cold and the empress dowager was too old to travel long distances. He refused the proposal of the courtiers, and turned around. The emperor said that in order to welcome the empress dowager back to the palace after the end of the year, as his son, he would personally prepare all the affairs of the Shouci Palace for the empress dowager.

  The emperor first refused and then took a step back. No matter how thick-skinned the courtiers were, they couldn't chase after him fiercely at this moment. They could only pinch their noses and praise the emperor's filial piety. The matter of the queen mother's return to the palace was put on hold.

   Qin Taifu lowered his eyes and remained silent. At his age, going to court is also a very hard work, but he still can't fall down, and he clenches his teeth every day.

  Listening to what the emperor said today, he successfully postponed the Queen Mother's return to the palace, and sighed in his heart. The emperor has grown up, and he is no longer someone who can be fooled at will when he first ascended the throne.

  After this incident, there is nothing else in the court, the emperor ordered the pen to be sealed, everyone is going to go home for the New Year.

  The courtiers went back to their homes with smiles on their faces. After a whole year of hard work, they were finally able to relax.

  The emperor is also happy. Fengbi doesn't have to look at the faces of his courtiers these days, so don't take it too easy.

  Then the emperor took Song Yunzhao to open the warehouse with great fanfare, and began to tidy up the Shouci Palace. When the news spread to the harem, Concubine Zhuang couldn't hold back her face.

  There are three concubines in the harem, why does the emperor only bring Song Yunzhao?

   Concubine Wan's complexion is also very ugly. I thought that the emperor would come to her palace to sit in the palace when he had time after he sealed the pen. Who would have thought that he would bring Song Yunzhao to prepare the Shouci Palace for the Queen Mother, so what is she, Concubine Wan?

  Only Concubine Shu was quite calm, she didn't feel angry at all, and she was humming a ditty while drinking tea in a good mood.

  Seeing Concubine Zhuang and Concubine Wan come to her to discuss this matter together, she thought to herself, what is there to discuss? Song Yunzhao is jealous, and when the emperor has no time, she still wants to bully the emperor. Now that the emperor finally has time, she can let others get their hands on it?

   What dream is it?

  Concubine Shu was very open-minded, anyway, the emperor came to her to drink tea or play chess, and he would not really favor her and let her have a son and a half.

   She has seen through these years. The emperor is very afraid of her father. How could he let her give birth to a child?

  Since this is the case, as long as she can keep her concubine position, whether the emperor likes it or not, she has to entertain her with a smiling face when she comes.

   Concubine Zhuang is okay, Concubine Wan is probably feeling very uncomfortable.

   Concubine Shu's father is the right minister, with a high position and authority.

  The fathers of Concubine Zhuang and Concubine Wan are both assistant ministers. Relatively speaking, the emperor will definitely not fear them as much as her father, so she always thinks that the second concubine has a real imperial favor.

  Concubine Zhuang is a hypocrite, Concubine Wan is more or less genuine.

  It's a pity that Song Yunzhao, who is beautiful and has a skull as strong as iron, was born out of nowhere and turned the harem upside down.

  Anyway, she doesn't want to get involved anymore, it hurts her eyes and hurts others, so why bother to make things difficult for herself.

   "Concubine Shu, can you really watch Song Jieyu step on us so arrogantly?" Concubine Wan said angrily.

   Concubine Zhuang sighed beside her, "Yes, the emperor's move really hurt our hearts. If this continues, I'm afraid there will be no room for us in this palace."

  Concubine Shu looked at the two of them, and listened to their angry words, she sneered in her heart, she was too stupid before, she believed what others said a few words to be true, she rushed forward in everything, and now she still treats her like the fool she used to be, can't she improve?

   She is so mad!

   Today’s update is here, my little cuties.
