Chapter 169

Rosie knocked on the door outside and whispered, "mother, it's time to get up."

Xie Yingmei turned lazily in the quilt. Grumbled discontentedly, "why did you get up at this time?"

Rosie pushed the door in and tied up the curtain by the window. The bright sunshine outside the window poured into the house like a tide. "You're going to see the imperial concubine today."

"Your imperial concubine?" Xie Yingmei suddenly opened her eyes. "Is it like your imperial concubine?"

"Yes," Rosie nodded. "Ronghua went out in advance this morning. Today, my maid and xuanxiao will accompany you."

Xie Yingmei turned her eyes. If the imperial concubine is Su Rushuang, the cousin of former empress mu Langhua. I didn't expect to be a imperial concubine so soon.

"Princess Wan will also go to Huayang palace," Rosie called two palace maids to come in with a basin of water. "You have to freshen up. Don't delay the time."

Xie Yingmei was still stiff on the edge of the bed and refused to move. She met Su Rushuang when she was a child. So long has passed, but the special birthmark at the eye and tail is still there. Su Rushuang will recognize herself. At that time, she will be in trouble.

Rosie put all the walking gold combs she would use to comb her hair on the stage and saw her in a daze. She asked in a low voice, "mother, get up quickly."

Xie Yingmei's face was wrinkled like a balsam pear. She said with a sad face, "can you not go?"

Rosie said with a bitter smile, "how can I not see the imperial concubine? Even if I don't go now, I will see her in the future."

"But I'm not feeling well today." Xie Yingmei covered her stomach and groaned. "You'd better not go."

"How can this work," Rosie pursed her lips. Advised, "people will say that the people of the state of Qin don't know the number of rites."

I was not from the state of Qin. Xie Yingmei looked down and thought. She can't hide from the 15th day of the first day of the first day. Now she's gone in a big way. Su Rushuang won't be suspicious. She may not recognize herself. If she hides it, she may doubt her identity.

"Well," said Xie Yingmei, relieved, getting up and putting on two shoes, "I'll come down and wash my face and make-up now."

Rosie put her heart down. "Can my mother know the etiquette in the palace? The Qi State and the Qin State may be different."

Xie Yingmei shook her head in ignorance. She can't understand the etiquette in the palace of two countries.

"I'll show you later," said Rosie, combing her hair with some water. "The imperial concubine pays great attention to these rules. Don't let others talk in this place."

Xie Yingmei understood in her heart that the rules in the palace were the most, "where's Princess Wan?"

"Empress Wan is the most amiable and gentle empress in the palace," Rosie smiled. "Empress can be more close to her. She is now the most loved by the emperor in the palace."

Xie Yingmei smiled and said, "then I'll go to Zhongcui palace more in the future."

"One more thing to remind the empress," Rosie said solemnly. "The imperial concubine sometimes picks a new imperial concubine's thorn. No matter what the imperial concubine says, she doesn't answer back and bow her head."

Xie Yingmei trembled all over. Su Rushuang was a quiet and shy little girl when she was a child. How could she suddenly become such a lady, "then the imperial concubine doesn't sound easy to get along with."

Rosie replied, "your imperial concubine is a high-ranking concubine who entered the palace early. Her qualifications are naturally deeper. Don't worry, as long as she doesn't disrespect in front of her."

Su Rushuang picked some snow cream with her fingertips and wiped it on her cheeks. She lost a lot of weight in the bronze mirror, and her eyes were dim, not as graceful as before.

"Xiao Yi," Su Rushuang looked anxiously at the mirror, "do you think the palace is old?"

Xiaoyi tied the green silk into a double knife bun for her, and put a string of tassels on both sides. A Golden Phoenix tired silk like jade Babao Phoenix hairpin was obliquely inserted between the bun. Su Rushuang reached out to touch these jewelry, straightened her waist slightly, and returned to the status of the supreme imperial concubine.

"The empress is still young," Xiao Yi helped her straighten the Zhengfeng hairpin, "how can she be old."

"This palace is not old, but it's much younger and more beautiful than this palace," Su Rushuang said, bending her lips. "I'm going to see you soon."

Outside the door, a palace maid came and said, "Princess Wan is here."

Su Rushan hummed softly, "say Cao Cao, Cao Cao is coming. She always comes the first. It's really amazing. I'm afraid she's neglecting the palace."

Xiaoyi whispered with a smile, "since Princess Wan came early, let her wait in the hall."

Su Rushuang said with a smile, "you are so clever. You have the same idea as this palace."

Xiaoyi pouted. "Concubine Wan is coming. Why can't you see concubine Chen coming."

Su Rushuang frowned and a trace of displeasure flashed across his eyes. "It's from the state of Qin. I don't know the etiquette."

"Since imperial concubine Chen put on airs and didn't arrive at Huayang palace for a long time, the empress didn't have to praise them too much," Xiao Yi asked the palace maid to arrange the newly made beautiful clothes in turn. "The empress chose the clothes slowly."

Luo Ninghai looked up and asked, "how long have we been waiting here?"

After calculating about it, the lime looked down and said, "it's about a quarter of an hour."

Luo Ninghai sneered: "as usual, she still likes to put on airs for fear that others don't know that she is the most distinguished concubine in the whole harem."

"Imperial concubine Chen hasn't arrived yet," whispered green Ning. "If imperial concubine Chen hasn't arrived yet, it's estimated that the imperial concubine will come out for a while."

"The Chen imperial concubine is the big Princess of the state of Qin. She doesn't know the rules," Luo Ninghai lowered her eyes and drank a mouthful of tea. "Well, if the imperial concubine has been closed in Huayang palace for three months, I'm afraid she has a full stomach of resentment against the Palace. It's also good to have a Chen imperial concubine to block it. The provincial palace needs to spend energy to deal with two people."

Green lemon leaned out and looked, "imperial concubine Chen seems to be coming."

Sure enough, there was a palace maid outside the door who reported: "Princess Chen is here."

A disorderly sound of footsteps came into the hall. Luo Ninghai sorted out his clothes and stood up to salute the visitor. "My concubine paid a visit to empress Chen."

She slowly raised her head, but she was stunned for a moment. Imperial concubine Chen is tall and tall, with a head of green silk wrapped behind her head with a red gold tourmaline stone butterfly hairpin. She is dressed in a palace dress with lotus red brocade makeup, brocade and Shu embroidered lotus border pattern. She has a beautiful appearance, and a Begonia flower birthmark at the end of her eyes is particularly eye-catching. Luo Ninghai searches carefully in her mind. Doesn't general Xie Yingmei's daughter Xie also have such a birthmark.

Xie Yingmei was also stunned. She was surprised. This is Luo Ninghai, the daughter of general Luo. They played together since childhood,

Luo Ninghai narrowed his eyes dangerously and looked at imperial concubine Chen as if they were deja vu. But general Xie and Mu's army should be on the battlefield for treason. What's the matter with this man in front of you.

Green lemon felt the strange atmosphere and walked forward and said, "maidservant, green lemon, pay a visit to Princess Chen."

When Rosie saw that Xie Yingmei was still in shock, she pushed her hand and said with a smile, "madam, this is Princess Wan of Zhongcui palace."

Xie Yingmei realized that the expression on her face was too strange. She quickly smiled and said, "don't be polite. Get up quickly."

Luo Ninghai had doubts in his heart but didn't bring them out. He just sat down with a slight smile, but the remaining light in the corner of his eyes was watching the every move of imperial concubine Chen.

Xie Yingmei had already been scared to death by this sight. The whole person looked into the air and sat stiff in her seat.

Luo Ninghai kept a respectful and cordial smile on her face and quietly drank a cup of tea. If the person who should disappear did not disappear, but appeared in a place where she should not appear, it would be a good play to see.

Su Rushan finally held Xiaoyi's hand and appeared leisurely in the upper seat of the hall. He raised his eyes and slowly swept the faces of the two concubines.

When she saw imperial concubine Chen, she was obviously stunned, "imperial concubine Chen?"

Luo Ninghai's heart was like a mirror. He just smiled and quietly looked at the dull look of imperial concubine Chen.

Rosie whispered, "madam, the imperial concubine is calling you."

Xie Yingmei seemed to hide a rabbit in her chest. She slowly stood up and saluted the imperial concubine. "My concubine paid a visit to the imperial concubine."

Su Rushan frowned and stared at her suspiciously. No wonder Meng Qianzhong asked her if she remembered a person with a Begonia birthmark at the end of her eye. It turned out that the new princess Chen had such a birthmark, which was somewhat similar to Xie Yingmei when she was a child.

however. Su Rushan snorted coldly in her heart. Xie Yingmei's ashes were blown away to a corner. "Don't be polite. Get up."

Xie Yingmei finally breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. Su Rushan didn't seem to recognize her. "Thank you, imperial concubine."

Luo Ninghai still kept a indifferent smile and drank tea. It seems that Su Rushuang remembered Xie Yingmei in the past, but she didn't think about it carefully from her relaxed expression.

Imperial concubine Chen looked submissive, but it didn't mean anything. Su Rushuang looked at imperial concubine Wan, who had been silent all the time. She curved her lips and said with a smile: "imperial concubine Wan is so beautiful today. She doesn't look like this palace. After staying in Huayang palace for three months, she has no energy and spirit."

Luo Ninghai, in order to avoid being targeted by the imperial concubine, today specially wore an extremely ordinary crab shell Blue Palace Dress, but the imperial concubine still pasted it like a ghost. "The empress has always been strong, and with the Royal Hospital for conditioning, she will get better in three or four days. Unlike the imperial concubine, I have to toss around a few times in a medicine jar. I'll see you in ten days and a half months."

Su Rushuang sneered at the corners of her mouth and said ungratefully, "it turns out that it takes so long for Princess wan to get well. No wonder the emperor always goes to Zhongcui palace, or princess Wan will toss."

Luo Ninghai's face changed slightly and said with a smile, "the emperor doesn't cherish his concubines, but it's just that there are princesses and princesses in Zhongcui palace."

"It can be seen that helping the royal family of the state of Qi to open branches and loose leaves will also be tossed," Su Rushuang said with a round of brilliance in his eyes. "This palace sighs at Furu."

Luo Ninghai's eyes flashed a trace of displeasure and smiled at her. "My concubine is late in the palace. She has a little strength to toss. Maybe she can't toss like the imperial concubine after a few years."

Su Rushuang sneered, "well, concubine Wan is still very young, but it's better to give more descendants to the emperor."

"My concubine is just on the * *, and it's not that time yet, and it's the imperial concubine who is in the time of continuous offspring," Luo Ninghai nodded slightly. "The princes and princesses in the palace all rely on the sun and moon of the imperial concubine, waiting for their royal brothers and sisters."

Su Rushan could no longer hold a smile on her lips. She knew clearly in her heart that Meng Qianzhong could not let her give birth to the prince. She could only look at the children under the knees of other concubines.
