Chapter 95

For the first time, imperial concubine Shu, who has always been in the limelight in the harem, has become a spectator in the eyes of all the concubines in the harem. Anyone who looks at the superior opponent who has been favored for many years suddenly becomes less important can't help but vent their jealousy.

"Zhao Xianrong's position in the emperor's heart seems to be more and more important since he was seriously injured by Hu's calculation last time. The noble concubine sighed," after that, there's one less beloved Hu and another more beloved Zhuang. What's the difference for this kind of person who lives in the harem only by virtue of his qualifications? " She looked at her face in the mirror. Although her face was still the same, she was not as fresh as the concubines who had been in the palace for a long time.

"How could the empress rely on her qualifications and look at the emperor's trust in you? If not, how could she give you all the prince's education?" The maid in waiting on her hairpin said, "other masters in the palace don't have such dignity.

The virtuous imperial concubine Wen Yan smiles, obviously the words of the maid of honor make her very satisfied, the mood is very good to appreciate the maid of honor who spoke, stood up and helped the step shake of the sideburns, the woman in the harem will be old that day, have children next to the body is the last rely on.

"Let's go. It's zhaoxianrong's birthday banquet tonight. Even the emperor is going. We can't go late." The virtuous concubine showed a smile on her face. "Sister zhaoxianrong is a generous person, and we can't neglect her."

As the protagonist of the birthday banquet, Zhuang Luoyan naturally has to dress up ceremoniously. The gorgeous clothes, brocade shoes, yellow flowers, Zhu Chai sachets, all of which are carefully selected by Dianzhong province. The patterns on each one are auspicious and joyful, which shows that Dianzhong province has spent a lot of energy.

She doesn't want to make herself a little more ordinary. When a woman is young, she will dress up more. When she can't dress up as well as a young girl, she will use the tactic of steadiness. If she has been steadfast for a long time, when she is old, she won't be dead?

Put down Mei Dai, looking at the refined eyebrows, Zhuang Luoyan nodded with satisfaction, stood up and took a look in front of the big mirror, handed his hand to the waiting bamboo, "let's go."

Walking out of Xihe palace, through Jiuqu corridor, passing Meixiang Luoxue garden, and not short Zhuhong Palace Road, Zhuang Luoyan sat firmly on the walking chariot until the walking chariot stopped in front of the gate of the Queen's Jingyang palace.

Heyu, who was already waiting at the door, saw Zhuang Luoyan and went forward to salute him with a smile: "lady zhaoxianrong has arrived. The empress is waiting for you. Please follow me in."

"Thank you and jade," Zhuang Luoyan said with a smile to Heyu, followed Heyu into the palace gate, and the eunuch who was waiting behind him followed him.

At this time not far away, shuguifei and roufei just came to see this scene, roufei smile: "the queen is really loving."

Shu Princess face unchanged looked at the eyes soft princess, smile not words.

The soft imperial concubine moves to look in the eyes, she can't see the appearance of the noble imperial concubine Shu, as if she can see clearly and feel through all the people in the back palace. If it's really so powerful, why is it just to spoil the imperial concubine instead of getting the emperor's special favor? Even Zhuang Luoyan, who entered the palace tonight, came from behind and let the empress and jade relatives wait at the palace gate. Lady Shu didn't have this year.

In the house, after Zhuang Luoyan finished the ceremony for the queen, the queen put a lanolin jade bracelet on Zhuang Luoyan, and other concubines who had arrived in the house also followed Zhuang Luoyan.

As soon as they sat down, they saw lady Shu and Princess Rou coming together. This surprised everyone. Lady Shu and Princess Rou didn't come and go often. Why did they come together today?

It's su Xiuyi, who always follows the empress Shu. Why didn't she follow her?

After another salute, they sat down again, and the queen said, "the emperor still hasn't seen some discount. He sent someone early to say that the banquet should be held according to the time. We won't wait. Let's have a dinner now. "

The queen opened this mouth, naturally no one objected. The courtyard of Jingyang palace is not small. Even after sitting a bunch of concubines and setting up a stage, there is no crowding.

The first scene was Magu's birthday worship. Zhuang Luoyan watched it with a smile. He just casually ordered an auspicious opera and asked the queen and other concubines to order it.

"When I was a child, I loved to watch some lively operas. I always thought that the more lively they were, the more interesting they would be. Now, on the contrary, I prefer quieter operas." the queen put down her silver autograph and left Gongli on the plate alone.

"Concubines and concubines like quieter things these years," she said with a smile. "My sisters like these lively things."

If Zhuang Luoyan didn't take such a talk as usual, but today was her birthday banquet, she had to open this mouth: "empress and virtuous concubine are much better than concubines. Concubines can't understand opera since childhood. Concubines are impatient and can't hear the slow tune. They just want to hear the whole story immediately."

"It's normal for Zhaoxian to have a straight temper and not like to listen to opera," said Rou Fei, adding a piece of red and green in her plate with a silver sign. "But even if she doesn't like to listen, she should be a person who knows opera."

Zhuang Luoyan smiles and looks askance at the soft imperial concubine: "the soft imperial concubine empress looks up at the concubine, the concubine is absolutely inferior to you."No one knows who is present. Princess Rou feels sorry for her. Zhao Xianrong has several times. At this moment, they have something to say, but naturally there is no one to talk to.

"Who is not as good as my wife?"

A low male voice came from the corner, and the audience got up to salute.

Feng Jin went up to the empress and picked up Zhuang Luoyan behind her. Then he said, "today is Zhao Xianrong's birthday banquet. You don't have to be polite. Take your seat."

"I've known for a long time that you don't like to listen to operas, so I asked the people in the palace zayiyuan to prepare some juggling," Feng Jin waved. The actors on the stage stepped down one after another, and several people in the clothes of the palace zayiyuan appeared on the stage.

"Thank you, emperor," Zhuang Luoyan tried to suppress the surprise with a smile on his face. He bent his knees to salute the emperor and was held by the other side.

"Today is your birthday. How can you kneel down?" he took Zhuang Luoyan to his right and sat down. Feng Jin looked at the queen on his left. "I just heard that Zhao Xianrong said that he was inferior to Rou Fei. What's the matter?"

"It's just that the two sisters are modest to each other," the queen said with a smile after looking at Princess Rou and Zhuang Luoyan. "Zhaoxian Rong is always modest. You know that, Emperor."

Modest?

Feng Jin thinks that Zhuang Luoyan, who is always trying to make herself boast in private, suddenly feels a little lucky. Fortunately, she has no face and no skin. Otherwise, other concubines will wonder why he dotes on Zhao Xianrong? For the emperor, it's better not to mention this kind of disgrace.

"What the queen said is reasonable. Zhao Xianrong and Rou Fei are naturally the same," Feng Jin said with a smile. Seeing that the smile on Zhuang Luoyan's face seemed to be stiff, he was in a good mood. "How can they only present fruits and other things?"

"I was supposed to serve food, but Zhao Xianrong said that I would wait a little longer, and the people in the Food Bureau would wait a little longer," the queen explained with a smile, "but the emperor is not too late, and the serving is just right now." With that, he ordered someone to serve.

A delicate dish on the table, Feng Jin is in a good mood to drink two glasses of wine, then holding the wine cup to see all the concubines in the yard.

Finally, after a look around, her eyes fell on Zhuang Luoyan. Seeing that she was drinking soup seriously, she couldn't help thinking of the night before yesterday when Zhuang Luoyan suddenly cried to the emperor in the middle of the night.

He had never seen other concubines have nightmares. When they were sleeping with him, they were very calm and didn't even move. Zhao Xianrong would always secretly pull his hand or touch his ear.

She thought he was asleep, so all the time he pretended to be.

But the night before, when she cried for the emperor in her sleep, her panic left some traces in her heart.

When she woke up yesterday morning, she didn't remember the dream, but he wrote it down for no reason.

Is there no concubine like Zhao Xianrong?

It seems to think of something. Feng Jin looks at the queen beside her: "just now Zhao Xianrong said that she is inferior to Rou Fei, but I know where she is inferior?"

When they heard this, they all looked at Rou Fei and Zhuang Luoyan. Even Rou Fei couldn't help looking up at Zhuang Luoyan.

The Queen's heart is a jump, she and the emperor together for many years, the emperor some habits she still some clear, the emperor's words should not be casually mentioned, but she can only follow the words, "I do not know where the emperor said?"

"Concubine Rou is in the position of concubine. Zhao Xianrong is just a virtuous one. Her position is a little worse." Feng Jin put down the wine and said carelessly, "since I said you are all the same, let zhaoxianrong be a concubine. There are fewer concubines on the concubine's throne."

It's not that there are less concubines in the imperial concubine's position. Is there less Zhuang's in the imperial concubine's position?

The queen sneered in her heart, but her smile didn't change. She said calmly, "what the emperor said is true."

Zhuang Luoyan was a little surprised. The emperor was so light that he upgraded himself. He was stunned for a while before he got up to thank the emperor for his kindness.

"As I said, today is your birthday. You don't have to kneel down. I've asked the emperor to choose a good day. The official canonization ceremony will be held on the fifth day of next month." Feng Jin smiles and points to a plate of honey duck tongue in front of him. "If you like this, I'll give it to you."

The soft imperial concubine facial expression slightly a change, Emperor this is what meaning, is to want to tell the back palace public, Zhuang Luo Yan not bad her any point? What face does she have after today?

It's time for qintianjian to choose a good day. How can he mention it at will? Lady Shu looked up at the smile on the emperor's face, thinking that no matter what the emperor heard when he came in, he would find a chance to promote Zhuang Luoyan.

With a slight blink of her eyes, Princess Shu calmly watched Zhuang Luoyan eat the honey duck tongue from the emperor, and her eyes became cold.

She was able to win the emperor's favor in those years. Today, she won't be taken away easily.

"By the way, lady Shu, why didn't you see Su Xiuyi today?" Asked the queen.

"Back to the empress, Su Xiuyi didn't feel well. She was afraid that she would pass on her illness to everyone, so she didn't come." Lady Shu lowered her eyelids to make herself look soft and submissive. "What's more, today is a good day for sister Zhao. Isn't it unlucky for Su Xiuyi to come ill?""Lady Shu is too worried." Zhuang Luoyan wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief and looked up at the lady Shu with a smile.

Shu imperial concubine looks back and shows a gentle smile to Zhuang Luoyan.
