Chapter 117
After saying that, she left without any reluctance.
It was a bit surprising to call her Ying Xiaoyi.
Qi Yixiu glanced at Shen Chuliu's back with a half-smile, then turned his gaze away and drank his tea.
Ying Xiaoyi suddenly felt a little despicable.
I was the one who stayed, but I felt like I was the loser...
After returning to the Yuanyue Pavilion, Shen Chuliu washed up and lay down.
"Master, why don't you stay?" Zhemei asked as she served her.
"What do you think?" Shen Chuliu looked at Zhemei with a smile.
Zhemei also smiled: "Master, you are right."
Shen Chuliu said: "I can't sleep right now, can you tell me something about the palace that I don't know?"
Zhemei agreed and thought about talking about her former master, Concubine Min.
Shen Chuliu listened for a long time and finally felt sleepy.
Zhemei then got up and went out, and Zizhu was on guard at night.
After going to the back room, Zhemei lay down and thought that Concubine Min was actually a smart person back then, but it was a pity that the late emperor was old.
Concubine Yang controls the harem, while Empress Feng only cares about herself and is very scheming.
The virtuous concubine back then, now Empress Dowager Li, was also very resourceful.
Min Zhaoyi was so young, and it was amazing that she could climb to the position of Zhaoyi in such an environment.
But time was not waiting for her, and the late emperor passed away.
But now, Jingmei people have a great opportunity.
If she didn't stay today, the emperor would be thinking about her all the time.
There is no need to think too much. If not, why would the emperor ask her to accompany him today?
But how many people can make such a decision?
Who wouldn't want to sleep with him more often? She even thought about whether others would laugh at her when she came to pay respects tomorrow .
She is not afraid of these.
She knows the long-term approach and does not just look at the present.
Such a master is bound to go further, and no matter what, she will be able to climb up before her youth fades.
Being one of the nine concubines, being a concubine...
Give birth to another prince.
The future is promising.
Zhemei closed her eyes and thought that she must serve well. She had given up the idea of leaving the palace. If she stayed in the palace, she naturally had to follow a good master.
What is a good master? It is not about caring for the servants, but being strong enough to protect the servants.
Before she went to sleep, she thought a lot. The master must know all these hidden dangers in the palace.
My master, you must move forward unwaveringly.
Maybe it's because the hot weather is not suitable for eating venison.
The next morning, when Shen Chuliu opened his eyes, he felt pain in his chin.
I reached out and touched it, and there was a big bag.
Zizhu smiled and said, "The master is awake... Ouch..."
"Hmm?" Shen Chuliu looked at her: "Where else is there besides the chin?"
"It's gone. There's such a big lump. I'll get you some jade ointment." Jade ointment is used to reduce swelling.
Shen Chuliu got up as usual, but there was a big lump on his body which was quite painful.
After getting dressed, he said, "Let's get some food to cool down the body. This is because I've been eating venison for several meals in a row."
Zizhu sighed and asked Yuanxiao to go and notify the kitchen.
She also helped Shen Chuliu apply the jade ointment.
When Shen Chuliu went to pay her respects after breakfast, she gently rubbed the area where the jade cream had been applied, otherwise it would be too translucent and ugly.
As for acne, just let it be, it’s not a big deal.
She doesn't care anymore, but some people can't stand it.
As soon as she sat down after paying respects, Chen Baolin acted as if he was eager to take revenge: "Hey, what happened to Lady Jing? Wasn't she fine yesterday? Is it because you didn't sleep with me yesterday? Did you get a pimple from holding it in?"
Shen Chuliu looked at her coldly: "I don't quite understand what you are saying. How can you get acne if you don't sleep with your partner? What's the reason? Can you sisters here tell me? I am ignorant."
Everyone had an indescribable look on their face.
What Chen Baolin said was really vulgar.
It would be a lie to say that everyone doesn’t understand. The Dayi Dynasty was open-minded, and everyone should have heard of it and knew it.
But these were the obscene words said by those vulgar men outside. How could they sound so unpleasant when said by a concubine of the emperor?
The Chen family is from a civil service background, wow.
Before Chen Baolin could do anything, the Queen flew into a rage: "Chen! You are from a wealthy family. Your words and actions are so vulgar! What do you think this harem is?"
Chen Baolin didn't think there was anything wrong with that, so he was not convinced: "The Queen is too partial to Lady Jing..."
"Chen Baolin, you said such vulgar words, why are you still talking nonsense? Don't you admit your mistake?" Lady Li also knelt down in front of her.
It would have been better if he hadn't said it. Once he said it, Chen Baolin's rebellious nature came out: "You don't need to pretend to be kind!"
Shen Chuliu thought that Chen Baolin was a complete idiot. She was afraid that in the entire harem, the only one who was willing to speak for her was Lady Li.
"Someone, send Chen back to the palace and put her under house arrest for a month. She will be fined three months' salary and made to copy the palace rules a hundred times. If she breaks the rules again, she will be demoted." The queen rarely spoke so harshly.
She really sounded disgusting.
Chen Baolin was dissatisfied: "Empress!"
"If you dare to say another word, you will be beaten with thirty boards immediately." The queen glared at her.
Chen Baolin was completely blocked from talking. She had originally claimed to be from a wealthy family, so how could she be afraid of a queen from a foreign country? But today, she couldn't help being afraid.
As long as the other party is the queen, he can do these things to her.
Chen was taken away unwillingly.
Qi Yixiu laughed after hearing these words: "The queen is really a powerful queen."
I didn’t dare to speak on the fourth day of the New Year.
"Miss Jing has been wronged, you should go and give her some good things." Qi Yixiu said.
The fourth day of the New Year came.
I thought to myself, if you want to reward me, just give me that reward, why bother finding an excuse?
Qi Yixiu threw away the letter in his hand and smiled. He admired powerful people, such as the queen.
Yes, he doesn’t pamper her, nor does he like her, but he appreciates her.
The Queen didn't bother to deal with a woman named Chen, but Concubine Yi was ready to make a move and had a self-proclaimed useful chess piece in her hands, so the Queen was just helping Concubine Yi.
The Queen has never bothered to suppress any of her favored concubines.
She is not afraid of being out of favor.
She was proud of her status as queen and princess of Chaoguo.
She can live well without being pampered.
Therefore, she didn't mind asking Concubine Yi to finally let go of that chess piece.
The harem would never be honest, and the queen saw this clearly from the beginning.
Therefore, the queen never minds the chaos in the harem, as long as the chaos satisfies her.
It just so happened that Qi Yixiu thought the same way, so she was very qualified to be the queen.
The Queen easily kicked out Chen, the fool chosen by Concubine Yi, to let Concubine Yi know that Chen was useless.
This made Concubine Yi nervous and she couldn't sit still.
But at the same time, it would not really hurt Chen, the daughter of an important official.
She just temporarily placed the appropriate chess pieces in the appropriate positions, and put aside those that were not needed.
"Reward the Queen." Qi Yixiu said with a smile.
Chusi responded with a yes.
I thought, if I get rid of Chen Baolin, everyone will benefit. Tsk, Chen Baolin should feel honored.
