The Dragon's Families of Mountains and Rivers

Early the next morning, all the concubines who went to Fengyu Palace to pay their respects were shut down.

The queen's personal maid stood under the eaves of the hall where the queen greeted the concubines, and with a happy but faintly proud smile, stopped the concubines who came to pay her respects, "The queen's empress, the empress is not feeling well, please comfort me today." The matter will be avoided, ladies and gentlemen, please come back."

The concubines who had already arrived were a little surprised when they heard this, didn't the queen be fine yesterday?Why are you sick early this morning?

Concubine De, who was the head of the four concubines, had no emotion on her face, she just nodded in agreement, and was about to turn around to leave when she heard Concubine Liu Xian make a sound.

"Dare to ask Shulan Gugu, is there a serious problem with your phoenix body?"

Hearing her questioning, Concubine De stopped turning around, her face was pale, but she had some calculations in her heart, seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival was coming, if the empress fell ill at this juncture, then... …

"Huixian Concubine, Empress Empress just feels cold occasionally, it's not a serious problem." Shulan blessed her body slightly, and returned with a three-point smile.

"That's good." Concubine Liu Xian nodded, "Since the empress is not feeling well, then this palace will not disturb the empress's peace, so I will leave."

Listening to the sound of Ben Gong, Shulan's brows twitched imperceptibly.

According to the rules in the palace, apart from the four concubines who call themselves concubines to the queen, concubines, female officials, court ladies and eunuchs who are lower than themselves can all call themselves the palace.

Although Concubine Xian is the last of the four concubines, she is the serious master of the first palace. To her, the queen's close maid, she is naturally worthy of this palace.

It's just that, after all these years in the palace, this gentle and virtuous concubine has never been so bold, and this voice of the palace is naturally less than heard.

Shulan blessed her body, and it was regarded as a gift for her.

Concubine Xian turned half around, saw that Concubine De beside her was still standing there, she smiled and said, "Sister, let's drop by, how about we go back together?"

Concubine De nodded silently, and said to Shulan, "Please tell the empress to take care of her, and I will visit you some other day."

Shulan still accepted it with a smile, "Yes, this servant has written it down."

Concubine De has a cold temper. She has always had this attitude these days since she entered the palace. The head of the four concubines, even if her tone is indifferent, this voice of the palace will not make people feel abrupt.

Concubine De nodded slightly, turned around and wanted to leave.

Seeing this, Shulan respectfully blessed her body, "Send off empress respectfully."

Concubine De with the highest status left, followed by Concubine Xian, Concubine Shu and Concubine Liang naturally also left together, the other concubines greeted the Queen with chirping, and Shi Shiran followed and left the central palace together, waiting to be sent off After leaving everyone, Shulan's expression froze for a moment, and the indiscernible smile on his face faded away in an instant.

This seemingly peaceful imperial court has always been turbulent. The master just didn't show up for a day, and these delusional people can't wait to jump out. The imperial court still doesn't know how it will be messed up. Which royal woman is safe?

Concubine De has a cold temperament, and lives alone in the first palace. She has never interacted with the concubines in the palace. she.

A concubine whose family background is more prominent than that of the empress, and with a cold appearance that everyone should not get close to, how can she not make people jealous?How can we not let these women who are also imperial concubines avoid snakes and scorpions?

But the women in the palace have always followed the wind, even if they have the revenge of killing their sons and seizing their husbands, they can call sisters and sisters affectionately. Behind a smiling face, you don't even know how many faces she has.

"I heard that the golden osmanthus in my sister's palace is blooming well, can my sister come uninvited and disturb my sister's quietness?" After leaving the gate of Fengyu Palace, Concubine Xian smiled and said to Concubine De.

Concubine Shu and Liang Concubine behind her were only a few steps away, so they naturally heard it clearly. The two of them licked their lips at the same time when they heard the words. After waiting for a long time, they finally couldn't sit still?The queen just happened to be sick, so she couldn't wait to see the wind and turn the other side?

Concubine De said lightly, "Concubine Xian is serious, why bother my sisters?"

In the imperial court, because of some scruples, the empress would call her a sister politely several times. Only concubine De, she has always addressed her title directly, even for the empress, she has never used her sister affectionately. Such a title.Rusty, polite and cold.

Concubine Xian smiled coquettishly, "Then I will treat you as my sister and agree."

Concubine De said calmly, "Last night a snake crawled into the palace, at this moment the servants in the palace should still be looking for that beast all over the palace, I'm afraid it will disturb Concubine Xian."

This was straightforward, and the refusal did not mean to be tactful at all.

Concubine Shu and Liang Concubine behind her couldn't hold back the smile on her lips when she heard the words, she hurriedly raised her hand to cover her lips, so as not to laugh out loud on the spot and annoy this younger concubine Xian.

Sure enough, she is the jewel in the palm of the hand of Master Xiang who loves her dearly. Even if she has entered the palace and become an imperial concubine with a queen in the palace, she still doesn't have to worry about anyone.

Such a sharp refusal, not even willing to be polite, is too embarrassing.

"Ah? The commotion in Yongfu Palace last night was because that beast crawled into the palace?" The result was unexpected, Concubine Xian was not annoyed at all, but asked in amazement.

Defei nodded.

"Oh, you have to look for it carefully. It's best to turn the whole Yongfu Palace up and down, lest the beast crawl out and hurt people."

"Speaking of which, I'll also go back and ask my servants to search through Jingtai Palace carefully..."

Concubine De didn't talk much, and Concubine Xian was usually not very talkative, but she was uncharacteristically chattering non-stop.

"It's all in autumn, and you have to be careful before winter..."

"However, why did this beast run into this imperial garden?"

Concubine De rubbed her forehead, not intending to listen to her continue yelling, "I didn't sleep well last night, and the palace was looking for that beast again, it's inconvenient to entertain Concubine Xian, let's try another day."

After finishing speaking, he bowed his head to Concubine Shu and Concubine Liang behind him, and turned around to leave.

"Hey, Sister De Concubine, Sister De Concubine, walk slowly." Seeing that she was about to leave, Concubine Xian hurriedly lifted up her skirt, hurriedly followed two steps up, dragged Concubine De to take two quick steps, and said in a low voice , "Sister, don't worry, take a step to speak."

Concubine De frowned, looked at the palm that was pulling her wrist, and finally resisted the urge to shake it off.

Seeing the two masters leaving quickly, the casual palace servants had no choice but to follow in a hurry, but fell far behind.

"Hey, I'm just rushing to curry favor now, isn't it too late?" Concubine Shu slowly stroked Jin Buyao's temples and sneered mockingly when there was no one on the long palace road.

"It depends on the ability of our concubine Xian, doesn't it?" Concubine Liang answered with a smile.

"Hmph, if a girl from the magistrate's family wants to climb up on our indifferent concubine, I'm afraid it's too much."

"Let's see and see."

Naturally, Concubine Xian couldn't hear the taunting of these two, she dragged Concubine De directly into a higher pavilion in the Imperial Garden, looked left and right, confirmed that there was no one left and right, then lowered her head mysteriously He said in a low voice, "Sister, do you know why the empress is suddenly ill today?"

"Didn't you feel the cold occasionally?" Concubine De didn't have much interest, she never cared about everyone and everything in this palace, she just watched with a cold-eyed attitude, even if she had to be deeply involved, But she is just an outsider. To her, these so-called favors from the emperor, the noble concubine, and the supreme honor are just a farce that has nothing to do with her. She has never belonged here. The destination should not be this cage.

Concubine Xian snorted coldly, "Why do I feel the wind and cold occasionally, our empress is suffering from heart disease."

"Heart disease?" Concubine De frowned. The queen's heart disease is nothing more than related to the supreme Ninth Five-Year Lord. It is related to the emperor's favor to make the queen like this, so naturally she can't escape.

In the past, she only knew that the current His Majesty was not very close to the harem, and it was not until she entered the palace that she realized the extent of this so-called intimacy.

"I'm afraid that the queen's position will be changed in a short time. Of course, that one will be sick in a hurry."

Hearing this, Concubine De was finally a little surprised, "The queen has changed hands? Is the queen abolished?"

"No."

Concubine De frowned, "Concubine Xian, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense. What a big deal it is to abolish the empress, how can it be so easy? How complicated is it to abolish the empress? Just waste it?"

"There are three ways to be unfilial, and there are no descendants. Isn't this reason enough to abandon our empress who has been in the palace for many years and still has nothing to do?" Concubine Xian dropped a sentence lightly, and looked at Concubine De with some complacency.
