Stayed in the palace for one night, and Wang Changzai was woken up by the maid early the next morning.Wang Chang was very angry when he got up, so he reprimanded the maid on the spot. The maid was helpless and aggrieved, but she had to remind her that she would go to serve Niu Niu for dinner later.
Wang Chang was in a state of shock, and she almost forgot about it, so she didn't care to get angry, and hurriedly got up to serve Niu Niu.
Concubine Niu didn't make things difficult for her, but Wang Changzai was clumsy and almost broke a plate because he had never served anyone since he was a child.
"Oh, I really don't know how you got the emperor's attention. You can't do such a small thing well, but you still want to serve the emperor? Do you still want to be favored?" Niu Concubine rolled her eyes and mocked in a cold voice.
"Your Majesty, calm down, I will definitely do it better next time." Wang Changzai showed aggrieved face, since she was only served by others since she was a child, how could she have any reason to serve others?
I didn't expect the rules in this palace to be so cruel, even if I become a permanent presence, I still live like a servant.
"If it were Ben Gong's temper in the past, I would have punished you to kneel in the yard long ago. You have to thank Ben Gong for giving birth to a little elder brother and restrain your temper." Concubine Niu shook her head and reached out to her. Wang Changzai immediately moved Here comes the handkerchief.
Concubine Niu wiped her hands, then threw the handkerchief to her, and said nonchalantly: "Be smarter in doing things in the future, don't bring your unruly country spirit into the palace, the women in the palace , none of them are easy to provoke, even these maids, maybe they are all older than you."
"Thank you for your teaching." Wang Changzai was really surprised.
Maybe these court ladies are all older than her?She couldn't help but secretly smiled wryly, after all, she was sitting on the sidelines.
……
Ma Quan didn't pay much attention to the affairs in Yongshou Palace. Wang Changzai was just a dispensable existence to her, and she really didn't want to waste her energy on such a person.
The end of the year is approaching, and the emperor will still hold a family banquet, but this time the situation of the family banquet is different.As there are more and more elder princesses, the scale of the family banquet has been expanded again this year to include all elder princesses.
Because the emperor left for two or three months on his southern tour, all the concubines in the harem were unable to see each other. In order to show justice, Ma Guan also invited all the concubines to participate this year, including Wang Changzai who had just entered the palace.
Concubine Hui, Concubine Niu, and Concubine Xuan, who were grounded, have recently recovered their freedom and can participate in the family banquet at the end of the year.
Only Tong Ying, who was cast into the cold palace by the emperor, ushered in the last moment of his life.
It has been more than half a year since Tong promised to be thrown into the cold palace, and she originally hoped to be released one day, but since she bewitched Concubine Hui and Liang Jiugong, the emperor couldn't bear it anymore, and directly ordered her to go on the road on the anniversary of the imperial concubine's anniversary.
Tong promised to be panicked, unwilling, and looking forward to it at first, but as time passed, seeing that her family members did not intend to help, she finally gave birth to despair.
"Are you here to see me off?" Seeing Liang Jiugong and a group of eunuchs approaching, she raised the corners of her lips and giggled.
Her gaze swept over the tray held by the little eunuch, and it was still the same three: dagger, poisoned wine and white silk.
Liang Jiugong frowned slightly, how could the woman in front of him look like Concubine Tong at all?Totally dirty and abnormal crazy woman.
Is she pitiful?Maybe, but she was more hateful.
Thinking of this woman bewitching him, Liang Jiugong felt disgusted and wanted to vomit.
"Tong promised, the emperor takes pity on you, and specially gave you three choices. You can choose one." Liang Jiugong stared at her coldly, and said expressionlessly.
"Hehe... The emperor really dotes on the concubine, and he actually gave the concubine three choices... But these three choices are all for the concubine's life..." Tong Xu's smile became more and more weird, and he held on for a while before coming out of it. Stand up on the haystack.
In an instant, a stench dissipated, causing Liang Jiugong to take a step back.
"Eunuch Liang, are you afraid of me? What are you afraid of? I won't eat you..." Tong promised to cover his mouth with his black hand and chuckled, and even cast a wink at himself thoughtfully.
"Eunuch Liang, tell me, am I not beautiful enough? Am I not gentle enough? Why did the emperor treat me like this? Why did the emperor treat me like this..."
"why why why!"
Tong promised to cry with a smile, and started to laugh after crying for a while, as if he was really crazy.
Liang Jiugong was still expressionless. After so many years in the palace, he had seen everything, including Concubine Jing, Concubine An, Bu Erzhu, Imperial Concubine, and now Tong Ying.
Tong promised not to be the first, and maybe he won't be the last.
"Tong promised, the time has come, please go on the road with peace of mind." He winked, and the little eunuch who was holding the tray immediately stepped forward to let Tong promise himself to choose.
"No, don't... I don't want to die, I don't want to die... Eunuch Liang, just let me go, can you spare my life... I want to see the emperor, the emperor will definitely not want me to die... Eunuch Liang, Help me tell the emperor that I know I was wrong, okay..."
Tong promised to rush forward suddenly, tightly grasping Liang Jiugong's hand, muttering in horror and anticipation.
Liang Jiugong forcefully opened her fingers, only to find that the skin on her hand was scratched, and he couldn't help being a little annoyed.
"Since I promised myself not to choose, the old slave agreed to choose. Come, give me poisoned wine."
Two young eunuchs immediately stepped forward and grabbed Tong Xu's arm, while the other eunuch picked up the poisoned wine and walked up to Tong Xu, step by step, pinching her chin with one hand.
"No... um... don't... I won't drink..." Tong Xu was terrified and struggled hard, but he couldn't break free.
The eunuch suddenly poured the poisoned wine into her mouth, Tong Xu screamed and struggled even harder.
As soon as the two eunuchs let go, she collapsed to the ground, and after a short while, a mouthful of blood suddenly spewed out, and her eyes began to blur.
"No...I don't want to die...I want to see the emperor...the emperor..."
Tong promised to open and close his mouth, his voice was as thin as a mosquito, and finally closed his eyes slowly.
"Carry it out, be quick with your hands and feet, and don't offend the ladies." Liang Jiugong left a cold look, turned and left.
On the day Tong promised to die, the entire harem was concerned about this matter, but no one dared to go to the cold palace to check.
Only Wang Changzai felt something was wrong, but he didn't know what happened.
Concubine Niu sneered and said: "You go to the Beisan Institute for a walk, you have been in the palace for several days, and you haven't visited the harem yet?"
"Thank you for reminding me, I haven't visited many places yet." Wang Changzai didn't know why, the North Third Institute?It sounds familiar.
"Well, let's go, today I just saw the cruelty of the harem." Concubine Niu waved her hand, signaling that she could step back.
Wang Changzai became more and more puzzled, and only asked the maids around him after leaving Yongshou Palace.
The court lady seemed a bit afraid to speak, she was anxious to be questioned by Wang Changzai, so she reported in a low voice: "Changzai, today is the anniversary of the death of the imperial concubine and empress."
"Imperial Concubine?" Wang Changzai was taken aback for a moment. Is that the imperial concubine from the Tong family?It is said that she was also very favored when she first entered the palace, and was soon promoted to be a noble concubine, and she was also the first noble concubine in this dynasty.
Is this the one year anniversary?No wonder the atmosphere is weird today.
"Then what does this have to do with the Beisan Institute? Why did Niu Pin Niang let me go to the Beisan Institute?"
"This...Chang Zai, the North Third Institute is not a good place, it's a cold palace." The maid couldn't hold back anymore, if Chang Zai really went to the North Third Institute, she might suffer disaster.
Wang Changzai was startled suddenly, the Beisan Institute is the legendary cold palace?What exactly does Niu Pin mean?Want to cheat her to death?
Then the palace lady said: "Today is the death day of the imperial concubine. The emperor ordered that Tong Ying be sent on the road today... This Tong Xu was originally the concubine Tong, who was the younger sister of the imperial concubine, but because of some wrong things, so……"
Wang Changzai was dizzy when she heard it, and now she finally understood that everyone in Beisan was going to die today!
Tong agree?Concubine Tong?
How could a high concubine end up like this?
For a moment, Wang Changzai only felt that his throat was dry, and the little arrogance in his heart no longer existed.This harem is really more terrifying than imagined.
Naturally, she didn't go to the Beisan Institute, she just walked around in the imperial garden, and then hurried back.
Tong promised to be bestowed to death, but it didn't seem to cause any waves. Half a month later, the new year will arrive.
Early this morning, all the concubines in the palace dressed up beautifully, and went to the Qianqing Palace together, and those who had children even brought their children with them.
The fifth elder brother was also sent here, and was taken care of by Concubine Yi. Although the mother and son didn't see each other much, they were biological after all, so there was still some affection.
It was the first time for Wang Changzai to participate in such a solemn occasion, so he couldn't help being a little nervous, and followed Niu Niu step by step towards the Qianqing Palace.
"You're lucky. You were lucky enough to attend the family banquet when you first entered the palace. In previous years, only concubines and above were eligible to attend the family banquet on New Year's Eve." Seeing her cautious appearance, Concubine Niu secretly thought that Wang Changzai was not stupid. He quickly adapted to the environment in the palace.
"But don't get too excited. With your position, you can sit at the back tables. I'm afraid you can't even see the emperor's face clearly."
"It's an honor for me to be able to participate in the family banquet, and I don't dare to expect too much." Wang Changzai replied cautiously.
She has recently understood that this harem is completely dominated by Concubine De Gui, and it is really more difficult for her to get ahead than ascend to the sky.Gradually, she calmed down and was not as aggressive as she was in Suzhou.
When the two arrived at Qianqing Palace, they found that many people had already arrived, and Niu Ni didn't introduce her to her. Wang Changzai almost didn't know any of them, so they were left alone.
However, the story about her has already been spread throughout the harem. Concubine Yi and Concubine Ping will not help her hide it, and they will repeat what they did in Suzhou over and over again, so that everyone who is already dissatisfied with her Even more disgusted.
"Hey, this is Wang Changzai, right? His appearance is really watery, no wonder the emperor favors him." At this moment, a yin and yang voice sounded, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone took a look, only to find that it was Guo Guiren, and Concubine Yi was standing not far away.
"Chang Zai, this is Guo Guiren from Yikun Palace, the younger sister of Concubine Yi." Yun Shan, the palace maid next to Wang Chang Zai, reminded in a low voice.
Wang Changzai hurriedly saluted and said hello: "I have met Mr. Guo Gui."
Yifei's younger sister?She already knew the purpose of the other party's visit, and couldn't help but get nervous.
"What is favored by the emperor? How did I hear that some people sneaked into the banquet and even sang and danced?" Another voice sounded, with a bit of mockery.
"Chang Zai, this is Wei Guiren from Yonghe Palace." Yun Shan lowered his head again and said.
"I've seen nobleman Wei." Wang Changzai was a little annoyed, this nobleman Wei was too much, and actually scolded her in public.
Yonghe Palace?Isn't that the residence of Concubine De Gui?
It is said that this nobleman Wei had served Concubine Degui earlier, but was later promoted to promise, and has since become a concubine. The relationship with Concubine Degui is not simple.
"Sister Wei is right." Guo Guiren ignored Wang Changzai at all, and sneered contemptuously: "I also heard that some people even framed Concubine Ping in order to enter the palace, it is really vicious."
Wang Changzai's cheeks turned red suddenly, and he was angry and annoyed. Needless to say, this matter must have been reported by Concubine Ping or Concubine Yi.
But she still has no way to defend herself, otherwise wouldn't she be calling herself?
"Oh my god, how could there be such a vicious person? He would go to any lengths to get into the palace."
"That's not true, otherwise, with her beauty, how could she be favored by the emperor?"
"I also heard that some people deliberately pretend to be the concubine Degui, bah, it's really shameless. The concubine Degui is so noble, what kind of cat or dog can imitate it?"
"Tsk tsk... I really have never seen such a brazen person."
With Guo Guiren and Wei Guiren taking the lead, the rest of the people also started talking, and the voices were not small.
The more Wang Chang heard, the more uncomfortable he became, but he dared not speak out, and finally burst into tears.
When Ma Guan arrived at Qianqing Palace, what he saw was this scene, and he couldn't laugh or cry immediately.But this king is always doing it for himself, and she will not feel sympathy.
"What are you all doing together? When the emperor comes later, I think you guys are trying to make trouble."
"I've seen Concubine Degui!" Everyone was startled, they all turned their heads to salute, and quickly dispersed.
Only Wang Changzai stood there dumbfounded, weeping in grievance.
Ma Guan frowned slightly: "Today is the family dinner on New Year's Eve. It's such a beautiful day, so it should be festive."
"Your Majesty is right." Everyone responded, and they all looked at Wang Changzai. Wang Changzai's tears didn't fall, and it didn't matter if he didn't. He felt more and more wronged.
"Hey, which concubine is this? It seems that everyone doesn't like it very much." In the distance, several elder brothers were chatting.
Eldest elder brother Yinfei also came today, and seeing Wang Chang crying aggrievedly and being bullied by everyone, he couldn't help but take a second look.
Yinfeng said expressionlessly: "It's the Wang Changzai that my father brought back from Suzhou. She is a scheming woman, and she is vicious."
He also went on the southern tour, so he knew very well what Wang Changzai had done and disliked her very much.
"So it's her. She looks soft and weak, but she's a typical Jiangnan beauty." Yinbi rubbed his chin, and took another look.
"Brother, you are wrong, she is not weak, she is powerful." Yinfeng shook his head, as if unwilling to mention more about the harem, he turned around and asked Yinzhen Yinzuo about his studies.
Yinzhen and Yinzuo went to Jiangnan to play for two or three months, and they fell behind in their homework.
Yinfei sat there with his chin propped up, looking at Wang Changzai from time to time, not knowing what to think.
After the new year, the elder brother will be fourteen years old, and now he has the appearance of a handsome young man.She has a dignified temperament and a bit of cynical disrespect, which is quite different from Concubine Hui.
At his age, Kangxi had already had several concubines. At his age, A Ling'a also knew how to find a wife for himself. Concubine Hui was more strict in this regard, and had never found a woman for him.
However, it is obvious that Yinbi himself has just begun to fall in love, and he seems to be dreaming about Wang Changzai.
Not long after, Kangxi arrived, and everyone stopped talking immediately and sat down in order of their positions.
Sitting next to the emperor is naturally Concubine Degui, followed by Concubine Hui, Concubine Yi and Concubine Ping, and after the third concubine it is the fifth concubine's turn.After the concubine, there are several nobles.
As for the constant presence and promise, as Niu Pin said, the emperor might not even be able to see him if he sits so far away.
Elder brother and the princesses sat beside their mother, only Prince Yinfeng sat next to the emperor.
"In a blink of an eye, it's New Year's Eve again, and this year's family banquet is even more lively." Kangxi glanced at the crowd, there were a few more faces, and a few less faces.
"May it be more lively every year in the future." Ma Guan raised his wine glass and said with a smile: "This concubine toasts the emperor, wishing the emperor good health."
"Then I must drink this glass of wine." Kangxi glanced at her with a smile, picked up the glass with one hand, and the two drank it down at the same time.
The atmosphere was gradually mobilized, and the concubines also toasted one after another, saying some words of congratulations. Kangxi would not refuse anyone who came, and almost everyone took a sip of the toast.
Only when Wang Chang was toasting, Kangxi just said "hmm".
At this moment, everyone understood that the rumors were true, the emperor didn't like this Wang Changzai at all, and it was this woman who used despicable means to be canonized as Changzai.
For a while, many people's minds became active. Chang Zai and Xu Xu, who were sitting near her, moved to the side as if avoiding the plague.
Wang Changzai almost cried on the spot, and only then did he realize that the emperor's praise of her was just words, and the emperor had already seen her tricks.
Only Yinyi showed pity, and secretly thought that Wang Changzai was so pitiful that he was embarrassing in public by Khan Ama.The aggrieved appearance of crying or not is really distressing.
The family banquet lasted for more than an hour. After the end, everyone was not in a hurry to go back, because there will be fireworks later.
Kangxi led everyone up to the tall building, and when the time came, fireworks rose from the sky, illuminating the entire night sky and setting off the Forbidden City beautifully.
"The fireworks this year seem to be different from previous years. Your Majesty, have you developed a new variety?" Ma Guan looked at the fireworks and smiled happily.
"I heard that there are two newly developed ones, do you like them?" Kangxi asked with a smile while holding her hand.
"I like it. It's very beautiful. It would be great if there was a camera to record it. I can enjoy it anytime." Ma Guan said with regret that such beautiful fireworks can only be seen once a year, which is really not enjoyable.
"What is a camera? Is it a new way of painting?" Kangxi asked puzzled.
Ma Guan smiled, blinked his eyes and said teasingly: "The emperor is right, it is indeed a new way of painting. The concubine had a dream recently, and this thing called a video camera appeared in the dream. Everything is preserved, including sound and images, and you can watch it when you want."
"Your dream is very good, but I am afraid that such a thing should only exist in the sky." Kangxi touched her head with a smile, and said after a while: "I don't have a video camera, but I can draw a picture of fireworks for you later. .”
"The concubine will just wait. The emperor promises everything he says, and he is not allowed to go back on his word."
"You are not joking." Kangxi smiled dotingly, wondering if he should find an opportunity to set off more fireworks for Ma Guan this year.
The two chatted as if there was no one else around. Although the concubines were envious and jealous, they also expressed that they were used to it.Only Wang Changzai, who was standing in the back corner, became more and more disheartened, thinking that there would be no future in his life.
At this moment, something was stuffed into the palm of his hand, Wang Changzai was startled, turned around and found that it was Big Brother.
The elder brother made a silent gesture, raised his eyebrows and smiled, and ran away quickly.
Wang Changzai's heart was pounding, he was nervous and scared, what is Big Brother doing?If this was seen by others, wouldn't it be impossible for her to wash herself off even if she jumped into the Yellow River?
However, there was a trace of warmth in her heart. In this desolate and terrifying harem, there was a person who dared to approach her and gave her something...
Thinking of this, she took a few steps back again and hid in a corner where no one was around, before she dared to open her hands.
It was a bead, not very expensive, but definitely not cheap either, emitting a warm glow in a dark corner.
At that moment, Wang Changzai's tears rolled down, as if something hit her heart.
There was still a small note stuck to the bead, Wang Chang opened it to read, and there was only one sentence on it: Pearls match beauties.
Wang Changzai's cheeks turned red suddenly, she was actually molested by the elder brother.She was a little ashamed, but more confused, why did the elder brother do this?Could it be that he fell in love with her?
No, how can this be?She is the emperor's constant presence, although there is only a two-year difference between them, there is a generation gap between them!
Thinking of this, Wang Changzai's face tightened, this pearl was like a hot potato, which made her flustered.
I can't have it, I have to return it!She was already rejected by the emperor, if the emperor found out about this, she might not even have a way to survive.
She ran out in a hurry, but didn't see Big Brother, and the fireworks came to an end.Worried that Mingzhu would be discovered, she hurriedly stuffed it into her pocket, and could only find a chance to return it later.
In the next few days, Wang Changzai was absent-minded. She was isolated by the entire harem, and she was not so cheap as to put her face on someone else's cold ass.
From time to time, she took out the bead and looked at it. Only when she saw the gentle light could she feel the warmth.
Today, she was bored and took the court lady to play in the imperial garden. It has just snowed recently, and the imperial garden is covered in silver, which is a special scene.
While admiring the snow scene, a familiar figure suddenly came into view, it was Yinyi.
"I've seen Wang Changzai, why is Changzai sitting here alone? It's so cold, it's not good to be caught in the wind and cold." Yin Yu had gentle eyes, striding over the snowflakes, without any intention of avoiding suspicion.
Wang Changzai was taken aback, how could it be such a coincidence?Could it be that Big Brother is always paying attention to her movements?
But it's good to meet here, return the beads, and you don't have to worry about it in the future.
She glanced at Yunshan, found an excuse to push him away, and then took out the pearl and handed it over.
"Brother lost the bead last time, and I happened to pick it up. I met it today, and it happened to be returned to the original owner."
Yinyin's smile faltered: "You don't like this pearl? I can get you whatever you like."
"Brother is joking, you are brother, I am always here, brother, please don't say such things in the future. Please take back this bead, I just picked it up by accident, you and I don't want it in the future See you again."
Wang Changzai's expression was tense. Although the elder brother's kindness made her feel warm in the harem, she couldn't bear it.If this matter is discovered by others, she will really be finished!
Seeing that elder brother was still standing there dumbly, she became a little anxious, so she walked over and forced the beads into Yinxi's hands.
Yinfei took the opportunity to grab her hand, Wang Changzai was startled, and when he was about to struggle, he suddenly heard a familiar voice from behind the bushes.
"Wang Changzai, you are so brave, you dare to seduce elder brother behind the emperor's back!"
Ma Guan yelled sharply, and then came out from behind the bushes.She never expected that she would see this scene when she just came to the Imperial Garden to wander around in a leisurely time.
This Wang Changzai was really unexpected, she hooked up with big brother in such a short period of time, isn't she afraid of losing her head?
"Crack." The pearl suddenly fell to the ground and shattered.
Both of them changed their expressions, and quickly let go of their hands.
"I'm wronged..." Wang Chang's heart sank, and he knelt down with a plop.
The author has something to say: Thank you for the irrigation nutrient solution: Wei Wuxian 5 bottles.
Wang Chang was in a state of shock, and she almost forgot about it, so she didn't care to get angry, and hurriedly got up to serve Niu Niu.
Concubine Niu didn't make things difficult for her, but Wang Changzai was clumsy and almost broke a plate because he had never served anyone since he was a child.
"Oh, I really don't know how you got the emperor's attention. You can't do such a small thing well, but you still want to serve the emperor? Do you still want to be favored?" Niu Concubine rolled her eyes and mocked in a cold voice.
"Your Majesty, calm down, I will definitely do it better next time." Wang Changzai showed aggrieved face, since she was only served by others since she was a child, how could she have any reason to serve others?
I didn't expect the rules in this palace to be so cruel, even if I become a permanent presence, I still live like a servant.
"If it were Ben Gong's temper in the past, I would have punished you to kneel in the yard long ago. You have to thank Ben Gong for giving birth to a little elder brother and restrain your temper." Concubine Niu shook her head and reached out to her. Wang Changzai immediately moved Here comes the handkerchief.
Concubine Niu wiped her hands, then threw the handkerchief to her, and said nonchalantly: "Be smarter in doing things in the future, don't bring your unruly country spirit into the palace, the women in the palace , none of them are easy to provoke, even these maids, maybe they are all older than you."
"Thank you for your teaching." Wang Changzai was really surprised.
Maybe these court ladies are all older than her?She couldn't help but secretly smiled wryly, after all, she was sitting on the sidelines.

"This...Chang Zai, the North Third Institute is not a good place, it's a cold palace." The maid couldn't hold back anymore, if Chang Zai really went to the North Third Institute, she might suffer disaster.
Wang Changzai was startled suddenly, the Beisan Institute is the legendary cold palace?What exactly does Niu Pin mean?Want to cheat her to death?
Then the palace lady said: "Today is the death day of the imperial concubine. The emperor ordered that Tong Ying be sent on the road today... This Tong Xu was originally the concubine Tong, who was the younger sister of the imperial concubine, but because of some wrong things, so……"
Wang Changzai was dizzy when she heard it, and now she finally understood that everyone in Beisan was going to die today!
Tong agree?Concubine Tong?
How could a high concubine end up like this?
For a moment, Wang Changzai only felt that his throat was dry, and the little arrogance in his heart no longer existed.This harem is really more terrifying than imagined.
Naturally, she didn't go to the Beisan Institute, she just walked around in the imperial garden, and then hurried back.
Tong promised to be bestowed to death, but it didn't seem to cause any waves. Half a month later, the new year will arrive.
Early this morning, all the concubines in the palace dressed up beautifully, and went to the Qianqing Palace together, and those who had children even brought their children with them.
The fifth elder brother was also sent here, and was taken care of by Concubine Yi. Although the mother and son didn't see each other much, they were biological after all, so there was still some affection.
It was the first time for Wang Changzai to participate in such a solemn occasion, so he couldn't help being a little nervous, and followed Niu Niu step by step towards the Qianqing Palace.
"You're lucky. You were lucky enough to attend the family banquet when you first entered the palace. In previous years, only concubines and above were eligible to attend the family banquet on New Year's Eve." Seeing her cautious appearance, Concubine Niu secretly thought that Wang Changzai was not stupid. He quickly adapted to the environment in the palace.
"But don't get too excited. With your position, you can sit at the back tables. I'm afraid you can't even see the emperor's face clearly."
"It's an honor for me to be able to participate in the family banquet, and I don't dare to expect too much." Wang Changzai replied cautiously.
She has recently understood that this harem is completely dominated by Concubine De Gui, and it is really more difficult for her to get ahead than ascend to the sky.Gradually, she calmed down and was not as aggressive as she was in Suzhou.
When the two arrived at Qianqing Palace, they found that many people had already arrived, and Niu Ni didn't introduce her to her. Wang Changzai almost didn't know any of them, so they were left alone.
However, the story about her has already been spread throughout the harem. Concubine Yi and Concubine Ping will not help her hide it, and they will repeat what they did in Suzhou over and over again, so that everyone who is already dissatisfied with her Even more disgusted.
"Hey, this is Wang Changzai, right? His appearance is really watery, no wonder the emperor favors him." At this moment, a yin and yang voice sounded, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone took a look, only to find that it was Guo Guiren, and Concubine Yi was standing not far away.
"Chang Zai, this is Guo Guiren from Yikun Palace, the younger sister of Concubine Yi." Yun Shan, the palace maid next to Wang Chang Zai, reminded in a low voice.
Wang Changzai hurriedly saluted and said hello: "I have met Mr. Guo Gui."
Yifei's younger sister?She already knew the purpose of the other party's visit, and couldn't help but get nervous.
"What is favored by the emperor? How did I hear that some people sneaked into the banquet and even sang and danced?" Another voice sounded, with a bit of mockery.
"Chang Zai, this is Wei Guiren from Yonghe Palace." Yun Shan lowered his head again and said.
"I've seen nobleman Wei." Wang Changzai was a little annoyed, this nobleman Wei was too much, and actually scolded her in public.
Yonghe Palace?Isn't that the residence of Concubine De Gui?
It is said that this nobleman Wei had served Concubine Degui earlier, but was later promoted to promise, and has since become a concubine. The relationship with Concubine Degui is not simple.
"Sister Wei is right." Guo Guiren ignored Wang Changzai at all, and sneered contemptuously: "I also heard that some people even framed Concubine Ping in order to enter the palace, it is really vicious."
Wang Changzai's cheeks turned red suddenly, and he was angry and annoyed. Needless to say, this matter must have been reported by Concubine Ping or Concubine Yi.
But she still has no way to defend herself, otherwise wouldn't she be calling herself?
"Oh my god, how could there be such a vicious person? He would go to any lengths to get into the palace."
"That's not true, otherwise, with her beauty, how could she be favored by the emperor?"
"I also heard that some people deliberately pretend to be the concubine Degui, bah, it's really shameless. The concubine Degui is so noble, what kind of cat or dog can imitate it?"
"Tsk tsk... I really have never seen such a brazen person."
With Guo Guiren and Wei Guiren taking the lead, the rest of the people also started talking, and the voices were not small.
The more Wang Chang heard, the more uncomfortable he became, but he dared not speak out, and finally burst into tears.
When Ma Guan arrived at Qianqing Palace, what he saw was this scene, and he couldn't laugh or cry immediately.But this king is always doing it for himself, and she will not feel sympathy.
"What are you all doing together? When the emperor comes later, I think you guys are trying to make trouble."
"I've seen Concubine Degui!" Everyone was startled, they all turned their heads to salute, and quickly dispersed.
Only Wang Changzai stood there dumbfounded, weeping in grievance.
Ma Guan frowned slightly: "Today is the family dinner on New Year's Eve. It's such a beautiful day, so it should be festive."
"Your Majesty is right." Everyone responded, and they all looked at Wang Changzai. Wang Changzai's tears didn't fall, and it didn't matter if he didn't. He felt more and more wronged.
"Hey, which concubine is this? It seems that everyone doesn't like it very much." In the distance, several elder brothers were chatting.
Eldest elder brother Yinfei also came today, and seeing Wang Chang crying aggrievedly and being bullied by everyone, he couldn't help but take a second look.
Yinfeng said expressionlessly: "It's the Wang Changzai that my father brought back from Suzhou. She is a scheming woman, and she is vicious."
He also went on the southern tour, so he knew very well what Wang Changzai had done and disliked her very much.
"So it's her. She looks soft and weak, but she's a typical Jiangnan beauty." Yinbi rubbed his chin, and took another look.
"Brother, you are wrong, she is not weak, she is powerful." Yinfeng shook his head, as if unwilling to mention more about the harem, he turned around and asked Yinzhen Yinzuo about his studies.
Yinzhen and Yinzuo went to Jiangnan to play for two or three months, and they fell behind in their homework.
Yinfei sat there with his chin propped up, looking at Wang Changzai from time to time, not knowing what to think.
After the new year, the elder brother will be fourteen years old, and now he has the appearance of a handsome young man.She has a dignified temperament and a bit of cynical disrespect, which is quite different from Concubine Hui.
At his age, Kangxi had already had several concubines. At his age, A Ling'a also knew how to find a wife for himself. Concubine Hui was more strict in this regard, and had never found a woman for him.
However, it is obvious that Yinbi himself has just begun to fall in love, and he seems to be dreaming about Wang Changzai.
Not long after, Kangxi arrived, and everyone stopped talking immediately and sat down in order of their positions.
Sitting next to the emperor is naturally Concubine Degui, followed by Concubine Hui, Concubine Yi and Concubine Ping, and after the third concubine it is the fifth concubine's turn.After the concubine, there are several nobles.
As for the constant presence and promise, as Niu Pin said, the emperor might not even be able to see him if he sits so far away.
Elder brother and the princesses sat beside their mother, only Prince Yinfeng sat next to the emperor.
"In a blink of an eye, it's New Year's Eve again, and this year's family banquet is even more lively." Kangxi glanced at the crowd, there were a few more faces, and a few less faces.
"May it be more lively every year in the future." Ma Guan raised his wine glass and said with a smile: "This concubine toasts the emperor, wishing the emperor good health."
"Then I must drink this glass of wine." Kangxi glanced at her with a smile, picked up the glass with one hand, and the two drank it down at the same time.
The atmosphere was gradually mobilized, and the concubines also toasted one after another, saying some words of congratulations. Kangxi would not refuse anyone who came, and almost everyone took a sip of the toast.
Only when Wang Chang was toasting, Kangxi just said "hmm".
At this moment, everyone understood that the rumors were true, the emperor didn't like this Wang Changzai at all, and it was this woman who used despicable means to be canonized as Changzai.
For a while, many people's minds became active. Chang Zai and Xu Xu, who were sitting near her, moved to the side as if avoiding the plague.
Wang Changzai almost cried on the spot, and only then did he realize that the emperor's praise of her was just words, and the emperor had already seen her tricks.
Only Yinyi showed pity, and secretly thought that Wang Changzai was so pitiful that he was embarrassing in public by Khan Ama.The aggrieved appearance of crying or not is really distressing.
The family banquet lasted for more than an hour. After the end, everyone was not in a hurry to go back, because there will be fireworks later.
Kangxi led everyone up to the tall building, and when the time came, fireworks rose from the sky, illuminating the entire night sky and setting off the Forbidden City beautifully.
"The fireworks this year seem to be different from previous years. Your Majesty, have you developed a new variety?" Ma Guan looked at the fireworks and smiled happily.
"I heard that there are two newly developed ones, do you like them?" Kangxi asked with a smile while holding her hand.
"I like it. It's very beautiful. It would be great if there was a camera to record it. I can enjoy it anytime." Ma Guan said with regret that such beautiful fireworks can only be seen once a year, which is really not enjoyable.
"What is a camera? Is it a new way of painting?" Kangxi asked puzzled.
Ma Guan smiled, blinked his eyes and said teasingly: "The emperor is right, it is indeed a new way of painting. The concubine had a dream recently, and this thing called a video camera appeared in the dream. Everything is preserved, including sound and images, and you can watch it when you want."
"Your dream is very good, but I am afraid that such a thing should only exist in the sky." Kangxi touched her head with a smile, and said after a while: "I don't have a video camera, but I can draw a picture of fireworks for you later. .”
"The concubine will just wait. The emperor promises everything he says, and he is not allowed to go back on his word."
"You are not joking." Kangxi smiled dotingly, wondering if he should find an opportunity to set off more fireworks for Ma Guan this year.
The two chatted as if there was no one else around. Although the concubines were envious and jealous, they also expressed that they were used to it.Only Wang Changzai, who was standing in the back corner, became more and more disheartened, thinking that there would be no future in his life.
At this moment, something was stuffed into the palm of his hand, Wang Changzai was startled, turned around and found that it was Big Brother.
The elder brother made a silent gesture, raised his eyebrows and smiled, and ran away quickly.
Wang Changzai's heart was pounding, he was nervous and scared, what is Big Brother doing?If this was seen by others, wouldn't it be impossible for her to wash herself off even if she jumped into the Yellow River?
However, there was a trace of warmth in her heart. In this desolate and terrifying harem, there was a person who dared to approach her and gave her something...
Thinking of this, she took a few steps back again and hid in a corner where no one was around, before she dared to open her hands.
It was a bead, not very expensive, but definitely not cheap either, emitting a warm glow in a dark corner.
At that moment, Wang Changzai's tears rolled down, as if something hit her heart.
There was still a small note stuck to the bead, Wang Chang opened it to read, and there was only one sentence on it: Pearls match beauties.
Wang Changzai's cheeks turned red suddenly, she was actually molested by the elder brother.She was a little ashamed, but more confused, why did the elder brother do this?Could it be that he fell in love with her?
No, how can this be?She is the emperor's constant presence, although there is only a two-year difference between them, there is a generation gap between them!
Thinking of this, Wang Changzai's face tightened, this pearl was like a hot potato, which made her flustered.
I can't have it, I have to return it!She was already rejected by the emperor, if the emperor found out about this, she might not even have a way to survive.
She ran out in a hurry, but didn't see Big Brother, and the fireworks came to an end.Worried that Mingzhu would be discovered, she hurriedly stuffed it into her pocket, and could only find a chance to return it later.
In the next few days, Wang Changzai was absent-minded. She was isolated by the entire harem, and she was not so cheap as to put her face on someone else's cold ass.
From time to time, she took out the bead and looked at it. Only when she saw the gentle light could she feel the warmth.
Today, she was bored and took the court lady to play in the imperial garden. It has just snowed recently, and the imperial garden is covered in silver, which is a special scene.
While admiring the snow scene, a familiar figure suddenly came into view, it was Yinyi.
"I've seen Wang Changzai, why is Changzai sitting here alone? It's so cold, it's not good to be caught in the wind and cold." Yin Yu had gentle eyes, striding over the snowflakes, without any intention of avoiding suspicion.
Wang Changzai was taken aback, how could it be such a coincidence?Could it be that Big Brother is always paying attention to her movements?
But it's good to meet here, return the beads, and you don't have to worry about it in the future.
She glanced at Yunshan, found an excuse to push him away, and then took out the pearl and handed it over.
"Brother lost the bead last time, and I happened to pick it up. I met it today, and it happened to be returned to the original owner."
Yinyin's smile faltered: "You don't like this pearl? I can get you whatever you like."
"Brother is joking, you are brother, I am always here, brother, please don't say such things in the future. Please take back this bead, I just picked it up by accident, you and I don't want it in the future See you again."
Wang Changzai's expression was tense. Although the elder brother's kindness made her feel warm in the harem, she couldn't bear it.If this matter is discovered by others, she will really be finished!
Seeing that elder brother was still standing there dumbly, she became a little anxious, so she walked over and forced the beads into Yinxi's hands.
Yinfei took the opportunity to grab her hand, Wang Changzai was startled, and when he was about to struggle, he suddenly heard a familiar voice from behind the bushes.
"Wang Changzai, you are so brave, you dare to seduce elder brother behind the emperor's back!"
Ma Guan yelled sharply, and then came out from behind the bushes.She never expected that she would see this scene when she just came to the Imperial Garden to wander around in a leisurely time.
This Wang Changzai was really unexpected, she hooked up with big brother in such a short period of time, isn't she afraid of losing her head?
"Crack." The pearl suddenly fell to the ground and shattered.
Both of them changed their expressions, and quickly let go of their hands.
"I'm wronged..." Wang Chang's heart sank, and he knelt down with a plop.
