The concubine of Germany is as beautiful as a god [Qing wear]
Chapter 21 Rewards
"Congratulations to Chang Zai for winning the Holy Grace." On the way to Kunning Palace, Xue Rong congratulated with a smile on his face.
She and Xueyin had long discussed in private that sooner or later Ma Guan would become the emperor's man.Therefore, what happened last night was within everyone's expectations, and everyone was very happy for Ma Guan.
No matter how much Ma Guan was favored before, she was just a court lady, but now it is different, she is always there, she is the master, and she no longer needs to serve others, but is served by others.
Ma Guan couldn't change his mind for a while, poked Xue Rong's forehead and said, "Don't make fun of me, last night was just an accident."
Xue Rong froze for a moment, and suddenly her eyes were foggy.
"What's wrong? I hurt you from poking you? Come here and let me have a look." Ma Guan pulled her to look at her forehead, but Xuerong let out a chuckle.
"Your servant is just happy. You have become a concubine, Ma Yu, and you still treat your servant like this. Once many people are enshrined, their eyes will be higher than the top, and they will look down on us servants."
Ma Guan smiled helplessly: "The master and the servant are not all human beings, they all have only one life."
She doesn't like this era. Although she has to succumb to it, she still advocates equality for everyone in her bones.
At least until now, she is not used to using her status to overwhelm others, and she doesn't need it for a familiar friend like Xue Rong.
"Niang Niang, you will be rewarded for being a good person in the future." Xue Rong said sincerely.
The two soon arrived at Kunning Palace. Hearing that the empress is in good spirits today, and all the concubines and above also came to see her, Ma Guan was a little more vigilant.
She is not familiar with the empress, but according to the emperor, she seems to be a very virtuous person.What she cared about were the noble concubine, concubine An, concubine Rong and others, all of whom had a feud with her.
Entering the main hall, I saw that the empress had already occupied her seat, and there were four people sitting on both sides, they were the imperial concubine and the seventh concubine.
As soon as she entered, she felt that everyone was looking at her, and some of them were still cold.
"I've met the empress, I've met all the sisters." Ma Guan looked calm, and saluted without being humble or overbearing.
The queen smiled and said: "Get up. Sister Wu Ya must have worked very hard to serve the emperor last night, so give Wu Ya a seat."
"Thank you, empress." Ma Yuan was indeed quite tired, especially her waist, which was so sore.
The seat given to her happened to be next to Yipin. After taking the seat, Ma Guan nodded to Yipin, and Yipin also smiled kindly.
Only then did Ma Guan look at the crowd, and saw that the queen's spirit was not bad, but her complexion was pale, it seemed that her health was still not in good shape.
The first one on the left is the noble concubine Tong Jiashi. The noble concubine looked at her very unkindly, which was also expected by Ma Guan.
Diagonally across from her was her deadly rival, An Bin. An Bin's eyes were cold and sharp, as if she wanted to swallow her alive.
Because Concubine Rong was sitting first on her side, she couldn't see her face.
"If you want to say that Wu Yachang is the most powerful, he was promoted to be a permanent presence by the emperor after only serving in bed for one night. Some people in the harem who have been in the palace for seven or eight years have only promised. Wu Ya's constant love is really beyond compare."
An Pin stared straight at Ma Quan. It was not easy for her to deal with Ma Quan, but it was a good idea to make Ma Quan the target of public criticism.
Ma Guan knew that there must be someone who made trouble, so she said respectfully: "Sister Anpin is ridiculously praised, the elder sister used to be the most favored in the harem."
Concubine An got angry when she mentioned this matter, if it wasn't for Ma Guan, she would still be the harem favorite!
Before she could open her mouth, the queen smiled and said, "Ma Guan has received the monthly regulations two years ago. If you do the math, it took two years to be canonized as permanent, which is not a big deal."
"The queen's mother's lesson." Ma Guan smiled gratefully. She didn't have much contact with the queen, so she didn't expect that the other party would speak for her.
Anpin and the others were also a little surprised. Does the queen need to maintain a constant existence like this?
The imperial concubine, who had been at odds with the queen, smiled and said: "The queen's words are wrong. After all, Wu Yachang was not included in the harem before, so it can't be regarded as a real promise. Besides, Wu Yachang was born in a coat. With such a speed of promotion, It was really surprising.”
Ma Guan's complexion did not change, but she was very annoyed in her heart. The imperial concubine deliberately mentioned her background in dressing in order to humiliate her in public.
Except for her, everyone here entered the palace as a beautiful girl, and her status is not vulgar. Do you want to use this method to make everyone despise her?
The queen frowned slightly, and said: "Whether it's a show girl or a dress, they are all for serving the emperor. Now that sister Wu Ya has been canonized, everyone is a sister."
Ma Guan also said calmly: "The emperor is open-minded and open-minded. He doesn't look down on my sister because of her background, and makes her flattered."
The queen couldn't help but glance at her, this girl is still a hedgehog, no wonder the emperor treats her differently from others.
Isn't this obviously a satire on the concubine's narrow-mindedness?
Sure enough, the noble concubine's face sank like water, and she gave Ma Guan a cold look.
"I heard that Ma Yuan's younger sister lives in Yonghe Palace, not far from where I live, and she must come and visit often in the future." Yipin suddenly said, and even affectionately held Ma Yuan's hand, showing her kindness.
"Sister Yipin has an order, and my younger sister dare not disobey." Ma Yu nodded and smiled, she couldn't understand Yipin, it's better to be like her at this time, isn't it against the noble concubine?
Although Yikun Palace and Yonghe Palace are on the same line, they belong to the east and west sides and are not close to each other.
It's not without reason that Yibi was favored so much in the future, she is a very smart and bold person.
"Heh, some people condescend to please a newcomer, and they don't mind degrading their status." An Pin rolled her eyes and whispered contemptuously, but it happened to be heard by everyone.
Yipin's complexion changed immediately, Anpin had never dealt with her, but this was the first time to humiliate her in public like this.
Ma Guan also suppressed her smile, no matter what Yipin said, she was humiliated by Anpin because of her, how could she turn a blind eye?
"My sister remembered one thing. When I was a court lady, I often heard the emperor praise the empress for her kindness and kindness. She is considerate of concubines. When I saw her today, it was indeed so."
Concubine An's face froze, this bitch actually changed the concept secretly, she was talking about Concubine Yi, not Empress Empress!
Sure enough, seeing the queen cast a glance at her, Concubine An felt a chill down her spine and lowered her eyes.
"Oh? Your Majesty has mentioned this Palace on weekdays?" The Empress was a little surprised. Who wouldn't want the Emperor to talk about herself?
"Don't dare to lie to the Empress Dowager. The Emperor has indeed praised the Empress. Two days ago, when he went to the Empress Dowager's Palace, he mentioned the Empress. He hoped that the Empress would recover soon." Ma Guan was not lying. The Empress helped her several times. She also doesn't mind giving the queen a long face.
Sure enough, the empress said with half joy and half guilt: "I have troubled the emperor and the empress dowager with my illness. It is really unreasonable."
"The empress is in good fortune, and she will recover soon." Concubine Hui comforted her, her relationship with the empress was not bad.
The queen smiled gently and nodded: "The palace is a little tired today, so let's go here."
"Respectfully send off the empress." The concubines stood up, watched the empress leave, and then dispersed on their own.
The Yonghe Palace where Ma Juan lives is on the east side of Kunning Palace, not too far away, but there is Chengqian Palace in the middle, and Chengqian Palace happens to be the residence of the imperial concubine.
So this time back, the two will inevitably go the same way.
Ma Guan deliberately lagged behind by a few steps, but the imperial concubine also slowed down, as if waiting for her on purpose.
Fortunately, Concubine Yi chased after her, and the imperial concubine seemed a little displeased, but she gave up her plan to embarrass Ma Guan.
"Sister Wu Ya, do you mind if my sister comes to sit with you for a while?" Yipin enthusiastically held Ma Guan on her arm, while Niu Niu and Xue Rong were a step behind.
"Sister Yipin is willing to go to my place. I can't wish for it. It's just that I just moved in today, and I haven't had time to go there yet, so I don't know how it's been cleaned up." Ma Yu became more and more puzzled by Yipin's behavior, even if she wanted to befriend her, It doesn't have to be so obvious.
Yipin smiled and said: "It must have been cleaned up already. Does my sister know who is the head of the Yonghe Palace?"
"Sister, please enlighten me." Ma Guan gave a thump in her heart, since Yipin asked this question, she must be a difficult person to get along with.
Concubine Yi glanced sideways, winked at Ma Guan again, and said in a low voice, "Concubine Jing. Concubine Jing originally lived in Xianfu Palace, but the concubine Xi of the same palace was also named concubine, so the Empress let her Moved to Yonghe Palace."
"So it's Empress Jingbi." Ma Guan also looked back, and saw that Jingbi was heading in the opposite direction, and it was Anpin who was accompanying her.
She knew why Concubine Yi reminded her, she must have heard that Concubine Jing was grounded because of her two years ago.
Later, although Concubine Jing didn't attack her, she must have held a grudge all the time.Now they live together in the Yonghe Palace, and the concubine Jing is in charge, so it shouldn't be too easy to deal with her.
Now Concubine Jing is hooking up with Concubine An again, anyone with a brain knows that it must be a bad thing.
"Thank you, sister, for reminding me." Although this matter will be known sooner or later, but Yipin reminds her in advance so that Ma Guan can make preparations earlier.
"Sister, you are being polite. You offended Concubine An for my sister and me that day. My sister and I have never found a chance to repay you. Of course, today is not considered a repayment. After all, you will know about it sooner or later." Yibi is very good at life. The words narrowed the distance between the two.
While talking, the two also arrived at the gate of Yonghe Palace.
The Yonghe Palace is very lively, and the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs are still busy, but it is almost the end.
Seeing the two people coming, the maids and eunuchs rushed forward to salute and greet them.Ma Guan took a look and found an acquaintance, it was Eunuch Li who led them into the palace that day.
"Eunuch Li, are you here?" She had a good impression of Eunuch Li, he didn't cause trouble, and he didn't bully others.
Seeing that she recognized him, Eunuch Li smiled immediately: "My servant greets Chang Zai. I didn't expect Chang Zai to remember me, so I am very flattered."
Ma Quan laughed and said: "Eunuch, you don't need to be humble. When you first entered the palace, your father-in-law took care of me. This kindness will never be forgotten. I don't know if my father-in-law is here today, but what is the important thing?"
Eunuch Li was even more happy. He thought that Ma Guan was extraordinary at the beginning, so he took care of him more. He never thought that he would be favored by the Empress Dowager not long after, and he has been promoted all the way since then.Up to now, he has been promoted to permanent presence, and is the emperor's favorite one.
In the future, I am afraid that the future is limitless.
"Chang Zai has just been conferred by the Jin Dynasty, and the maids and father-in-law have not yet been selected, so the slaves made their own decisions and brought a few of them here. If Chang Zai doesn't like them, the slaves will bring others."
"Eunuch Li has a heart." Ma Guan secretly thought that this person is good at life. She has just been promoted, so she rushed to please her.
She looked at the maids and eunuchs, and saw that they were all about fifteen or sixteen years old. They were all cute and cute, with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes. Eunuch Li must have specially selected them.
As a resident, I can only choose two court ladies and two eunuchs to serve, which is the same as the promise.
Ma Guan didn't care about this, after all, she was serving others before.
"Tell me what your name is." She walked up to the row of eunuchs first, and looked at each of them.
The six eunuchs reported their names one by one, and Ma Guan chose two that sounded pleasant to the ear: Shuhai and Xiao Chengzi.
The two who were picked hurriedly kowtowed to thank them, while the ones who were not picked showed disappointment.
Eunuch Li stepped forward and complimented him: "Chang Zai is really a good eye. These two boys are very smart and sensible, and Shu Hai can read and write. That's why the manager asked him to keep this name."
Ma Guan nodded, it was really convenient to have a literate person by his side.
She walked up to the row of maids again, and was about to ask a question, when there was a loud noise at the door.
Eunuch Li's eyes lit up: "It's Lagu Su Ma from the Palace of Compassion and Ning."
Ma Guan saw that it was indeed Lagu Su Ma, with two maids behind her, each holding a tray, which looked like a reward.
Her heart warmed, the empress dowager treated her well.
Yipin was a bit sour, I heard that the emperor also rewarded Ma Yuan with many good things, but she didn't have any.
"Su Mala has seen Yipin and Wu Yachang." Aunt Su Ma greeted her politely.
"Excuse me." Yi Bin said kindly, this is a celebrity beside the Empress Dowager, she dare not offend her.
"Auntie, please sit inside." Ma Guan warmly invited.
Aunt Su Ma smiled and said, "The servants will not sit down. The Empress Dowager ordered the servants to come to congratulate them and give them rewards."
She uncovered the red silk on the tray. Inside one was a pair of red coral bracelets, and inside the other were jade ruyis, both of which were favorites of the Empress Dowager.
"Thanks to the great love of the Empress Dowager, Ma Quan is very grateful." Ma Quan's eyes were a little sour, and she had actually served the Empress Dowager for more than half a year.In the next two years, although I occasionally sent some snacks over, after all, I didn't always accompany me.
Aunt Su Ma smiled, seeing Ma Guan sincerely thanked her, secretly thinking that the Empress Dowager did not love her in vain.
"The empress dowager knew that there was no caring person by her side, so she gave two of them, both of whom were familiar with you. Sister, Qiao Yun, why don't you hurry to see the master."
"Your servant has seen Chang Zai." Sister Shuang and Qiao Yun stepped forward to salute together, both smiling.
Ma Quan was surprised and moved: "The Empress Dowager asked Shuangjie and Qiaoyun to come to my place?"
Sister Shuang and Qiao Yun have served the Empress Dowager for two or three years. The Empress Dowager uses it very easily, but now they give it to her?This kindness is far greater than other rewards.
"The Empress Dowager knows that you are familiar with them, so I rewarded you. I hope you will treat them well in the future." Aunt Su Ma gave another blessing, and said: "If you are always here, the servant will leave first."
"I'll send it off to my aunt." Ma Guan walked out, took off the golden hairpin from her hair, and wanted to give it to La Aunt Su Ma as a thank you, but La Aunt Su Ma refused.
"Chang Zai still has a lot of places to spend money in the future, so just keep it for yourself. If Chang Zai really wants to thank you, you should visit the Empress Dowager from time to time." Aunt Su Ma couldn't laugh or cry, and became Chang Zai. At the beginning of this set, it seems to be divided.
"What my aunt said is that Ma Juan will definitely visit the Empress Dowager often in the future." Ma Juan smiled guiltily. After all, she underestimated Aunt Su Ma, and she never came back until she sent people to the gate of the palace.
Eunuch Li smiled apologetically, "The slave didn't know that the Empress Dowager had already made arrangements, so he acted affectionately, so he took them back."
"Eunuch Li is serious. I accept your kindness." Ma Guan winked at Sister Shuang, who had been in the palace for two or three years, so she naturally understood what she meant.
He took out a tael of silver from the bag and stuffed it into Eunuch Li's hand.
Eunuch Li smiled immediately, and greeted the maids and eunuchs to leave.
Soon, only Ma Guan, Yi Pin and the new ladies and eunuchs were left in the courtyard, and it was much cleaner.
"Sister Yipin, I kept you waiting for a long time, please sit inside." Only then did Ma Yuan invite him in. It was also the first time for Ma Yuan to come to this residence, so she was a little unfamiliar.
There are only three rooms in the East Side Hall, one for receiving guests, one for the bedroom, and the remaining one for storing things and resting for the maids. It is really not spacious and cannot be compared with the main hall.
At this time, all the furnishings in the palace were complete, including the things that the emperor rewarded him in the morning were neatly arranged, it seemed like that, Liang Jiugong was indeed very reliable in his work.
Ma Quan couldn't help but slander, no wonder the women in the harem tried their best to climb up, if nothing else, this place would be much better.
After the two sat down, Qiaoyun boiled water and made tea with familiarity. After a while, the aroma of tea lingered, which made people feel refreshed.
"I made my sister laugh. I just moved here, so I don't have anything to entertain my sister." Ma Guan sat at the table, took a look at her new residence, and was quite satisfied.
Yipin smiled and said: "If I minded, I wouldn't come here. You are well organized here. Don't worry about the small living quarters. The emperor loves you so much. I think it won't be long before you will be allowed to live in the main hall."
Living in the Lord's Palace means being a concubine.
Ma Quan shook her head with a smile: "I haven't thought about it, anyway, let's just take it day by day."
"I'm afraid you're the only one who thinks so. Who wouldn't try to climb up?" Yipin also shook her head and laughed. I have been in the palace for ten years."
Ma Guan didn't react for a while, Yibi reminded in a low voice: "You have a higher status than her, and you just moved here today, she should come to say hello to you no matter what. She hasn't shown up until now, she's very airy."
"As long as she doesn't come to provoke me, I don't know anything else." Ma Guan took a sip of tea, and it was tiring to deal with these hypocritical things every day.
"You really have a big heart." Yi Bin felt rather resentful.
"What big heart? Are you talking about me?" Kangxi's voice suddenly sounded outside, and before he finished speaking, a bright yellow figure walked in with a smile on his face. "Concubine Yi is also there."
"The concubine has seen the emperor." Ma Guan and Yi Bin hurriedly saluted and greeted him.
Ma Guan looked suspicious, why did the emperor come?
Concubine Yi is sour and thankful, the sour is that the emperor can't wait to see Ma Guan, but fortunately she has met him.
It really is the right choice to make friends with Ma Guan.
"Why is the emperor here?" Ma Guan was still a little uncomfortable, and she almost called herself a slave before.
"Come and see what's going on here." Kangxi pampered her nose and said with a smile, "It's just about time, so I'll have dinner with you by the way."
The author has something to say: Second update~
She and Xueyin had long discussed in private that sooner or later Ma Guan would become the emperor's man.Therefore, what happened last night was within everyone's expectations, and everyone was very happy for Ma Guan.
No matter how much Ma Guan was favored before, she was just a court lady, but now it is different, she is always there, she is the master, and she no longer needs to serve others, but is served by others.
Ma Guan couldn't change his mind for a while, poked Xue Rong's forehead and said, "Don't make fun of me, last night was just an accident."
Xue Rong froze for a moment, and suddenly her eyes were foggy.
"What's wrong? I hurt you from poking you? Come here and let me have a look." Ma Guan pulled her to look at her forehead, but Xuerong let out a chuckle.
"Your servant is just happy. You have become a concubine, Ma Yu, and you still treat your servant like this. Once many people are enshrined, their eyes will be higher than the top, and they will look down on us servants."
Ma Guan smiled helplessly: "The master and the servant are not all human beings, they all have only one life."
She doesn't like this era. Although she has to succumb to it, she still advocates equality for everyone in her bones.
At least until now, she is not used to using her status to overwhelm others, and she doesn't need it for a familiar friend like Xue Rong.
"Niang Niang, you will be rewarded for being a good person in the future." Xue Rong said sincerely.
The two soon arrived at Kunning Palace. Hearing that the empress is in good spirits today, and all the concubines and above also came to see her, Ma Guan was a little more vigilant.
She is not familiar with the empress, but according to the emperor, she seems to be a very virtuous person.What she cared about were the noble concubine, concubine An, concubine Rong and others, all of whom had a feud with her.
Entering the main hall, I saw that the empress had already occupied her seat, and there were four people sitting on both sides, they were the imperial concubine and the seventh concubine.
As soon as she entered, she felt that everyone was looking at her, and some of them were still cold.
"I've met the empress, I've met all the sisters." Ma Guan looked calm, and saluted without being humble or overbearing.
The queen smiled and said: "Get up. Sister Wu Ya must have worked very hard to serve the emperor last night, so give Wu Ya a seat."
"Thank you, empress." Ma Yuan was indeed quite tired, especially her waist, which was so sore.
The seat given to her happened to be next to Yipin. After taking the seat, Ma Guan nodded to Yipin, and Yipin also smiled kindly.
Only then did Ma Guan look at the crowd, and saw that the queen's spirit was not bad, but her complexion was pale, it seemed that her health was still not in good shape.
The first one on the left is the noble concubine Tong Jiashi. The noble concubine looked at her very unkindly, which was also expected by Ma Guan.
Diagonally across from her was her deadly rival, An Bin. An Bin's eyes were cold and sharp, as if she wanted to swallow her alive.
Because Concubine Rong was sitting first on her side, she couldn't see her face.
"If you want to say that Wu Yachang is the most powerful, he was promoted to be a permanent presence by the emperor after only serving in bed for one night. Some people in the harem who have been in the palace for seven or eight years have only promised. Wu Ya's constant love is really beyond compare."
An Pin stared straight at Ma Quan. It was not easy for her to deal with Ma Quan, but it was a good idea to make Ma Quan the target of public criticism.
Ma Guan knew that there must be someone who made trouble, so she said respectfully: "Sister Anpin is ridiculously praised, the elder sister used to be the most favored in the harem."
Concubine An got angry when she mentioned this matter, if it wasn't for Ma Guan, she would still be the harem favorite!
Before she could open her mouth, the queen smiled and said, "Ma Guan has received the monthly regulations two years ago. If you do the math, it took two years to be canonized as permanent, which is not a big deal."
"The queen's mother's lesson." Ma Guan smiled gratefully. She didn't have much contact with the queen, so she didn't expect that the other party would speak for her.
Anpin and the others were also a little surprised. Does the queen need to maintain a constant existence like this?
The imperial concubine, who had been at odds with the queen, smiled and said: "The queen's words are wrong. After all, Wu Yachang was not included in the harem before, so it can't be regarded as a real promise. Besides, Wu Yachang was born in a coat. With such a speed of promotion, It was really surprising.”
Ma Guan's complexion did not change, but she was very annoyed in her heart. The imperial concubine deliberately mentioned her background in dressing in order to humiliate her in public.
Except for her, everyone here entered the palace as a beautiful girl, and her status is not vulgar. Do you want to use this method to make everyone despise her?
The queen frowned slightly, and said: "Whether it's a show girl or a dress, they are all for serving the emperor. Now that sister Wu Ya has been canonized, everyone is a sister."
Ma Guan also said calmly: "The emperor is open-minded and open-minded. He doesn't look down on my sister because of her background, and makes her flattered."
The queen couldn't help but glance at her, this girl is still a hedgehog, no wonder the emperor treats her differently from others.
Isn't this obviously a satire on the concubine's narrow-mindedness?
Sure enough, the noble concubine's face sank like water, and she gave Ma Guan a cold look.
"I heard that Ma Yuan's younger sister lives in Yonghe Palace, not far from where I live, and she must come and visit often in the future." Yipin suddenly said, and even affectionately held Ma Yuan's hand, showing her kindness.
"Sister Yipin has an order, and my younger sister dare not disobey." Ma Yu nodded and smiled, she couldn't understand Yipin, it's better to be like her at this time, isn't it against the noble concubine?
Although Yikun Palace and Yonghe Palace are on the same line, they belong to the east and west sides and are not close to each other.
It's not without reason that Yibi was favored so much in the future, she is a very smart and bold person.
"Heh, some people condescend to please a newcomer, and they don't mind degrading their status." An Pin rolled her eyes and whispered contemptuously, but it happened to be heard by everyone.
Yipin's complexion changed immediately, Anpin had never dealt with her, but this was the first time to humiliate her in public like this.
Ma Guan also suppressed her smile, no matter what Yipin said, she was humiliated by Anpin because of her, how could she turn a blind eye?
"My sister remembered one thing. When I was a court lady, I often heard the emperor praise the empress for her kindness and kindness. She is considerate of concubines. When I saw her today, it was indeed so."
Concubine An's face froze, this bitch actually changed the concept secretly, she was talking about Concubine Yi, not Empress Empress!
Sure enough, seeing the queen cast a glance at her, Concubine An felt a chill down her spine and lowered her eyes.
"Oh? Your Majesty has mentioned this Palace on weekdays?" The Empress was a little surprised. Who wouldn't want the Emperor to talk about herself?
"Don't dare to lie to the Empress Dowager. The Emperor has indeed praised the Empress. Two days ago, when he went to the Empress Dowager's Palace, he mentioned the Empress. He hoped that the Empress would recover soon." Ma Guan was not lying. The Empress helped her several times. She also doesn't mind giving the queen a long face.
Sure enough, the empress said with half joy and half guilt: "I have troubled the emperor and the empress dowager with my illness. It is really unreasonable."
"The empress is in good fortune, and she will recover soon." Concubine Hui comforted her, her relationship with the empress was not bad.
The queen smiled gently and nodded: "The palace is a little tired today, so let's go here."
"Respectfully send off the empress." The concubines stood up, watched the empress leave, and then dispersed on their own.
The Yonghe Palace where Ma Juan lives is on the east side of Kunning Palace, not too far away, but there is Chengqian Palace in the middle, and Chengqian Palace happens to be the residence of the imperial concubine.
So this time back, the two will inevitably go the same way.
Ma Guan deliberately lagged behind by a few steps, but the imperial concubine also slowed down, as if waiting for her on purpose.
Fortunately, Concubine Yi chased after her, and the imperial concubine seemed a little displeased, but she gave up her plan to embarrass Ma Guan.
"Sister Wu Ya, do you mind if my sister comes to sit with you for a while?" Yipin enthusiastically held Ma Guan on her arm, while Niu Niu and Xue Rong were a step behind.
"Sister Yipin is willing to go to my place. I can't wish for it. It's just that I just moved in today, and I haven't had time to go there yet, so I don't know how it's been cleaned up." Ma Yu became more and more puzzled by Yipin's behavior, even if she wanted to befriend her, It doesn't have to be so obvious.
Yipin smiled and said: "It must have been cleaned up already. Does my sister know who is the head of the Yonghe Palace?"
"Sister, please enlighten me." Ma Guan gave a thump in her heart, since Yipin asked this question, she must be a difficult person to get along with.
Concubine Yi glanced sideways, winked at Ma Guan again, and said in a low voice, "Concubine Jing. Concubine Jing originally lived in Xianfu Palace, but the concubine Xi of the same palace was also named concubine, so the Empress let her Moved to Yonghe Palace."
"So it's Empress Jingbi." Ma Guan also looked back, and saw that Jingbi was heading in the opposite direction, and it was Anpin who was accompanying her.
She knew why Concubine Yi reminded her, she must have heard that Concubine Jing was grounded because of her two years ago.
Later, although Concubine Jing didn't attack her, she must have held a grudge all the time.Now they live together in the Yonghe Palace, and the concubine Jing is in charge, so it shouldn't be too easy to deal with her.
Now Concubine Jing is hooking up with Concubine An again, anyone with a brain knows that it must be a bad thing.
"Thank you, sister, for reminding me." Although this matter will be known sooner or later, but Yipin reminds her in advance so that Ma Guan can make preparations earlier.
"Sister, you are being polite. You offended Concubine An for my sister and me that day. My sister and I have never found a chance to repay you. Of course, today is not considered a repayment. After all, you will know about it sooner or later." Yibi is very good at life. The words narrowed the distance between the two.
While talking, the two also arrived at the gate of Yonghe Palace.
The Yonghe Palace is very lively, and the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs are still busy, but it is almost the end.
Seeing the two people coming, the maids and eunuchs rushed forward to salute and greet them.Ma Guan took a look and found an acquaintance, it was Eunuch Li who led them into the palace that day.
"Eunuch Li, are you here?" She had a good impression of Eunuch Li, he didn't cause trouble, and he didn't bully others.
Seeing that she recognized him, Eunuch Li smiled immediately: "My servant greets Chang Zai. I didn't expect Chang Zai to remember me, so I am very flattered."
Ma Quan laughed and said: "Eunuch, you don't need to be humble. When you first entered the palace, your father-in-law took care of me. This kindness will never be forgotten. I don't know if my father-in-law is here today, but what is the important thing?"
Eunuch Li was even more happy. He thought that Ma Guan was extraordinary at the beginning, so he took care of him more. He never thought that he would be favored by the Empress Dowager not long after, and he has been promoted all the way since then.Up to now, he has been promoted to permanent presence, and is the emperor's favorite one.
In the future, I am afraid that the future is limitless.
"Chang Zai has just been conferred by the Jin Dynasty, and the maids and father-in-law have not yet been selected, so the slaves made their own decisions and brought a few of them here. If Chang Zai doesn't like them, the slaves will bring others."
"Eunuch Li has a heart." Ma Guan secretly thought that this person is good at life. She has just been promoted, so she rushed to please her.
She looked at the maids and eunuchs, and saw that they were all about fifteen or sixteen years old. They were all cute and cute, with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes. Eunuch Li must have specially selected them.
As a resident, I can only choose two court ladies and two eunuchs to serve, which is the same as the promise.
Ma Guan didn't care about this, after all, she was serving others before.
"Tell me what your name is." She walked up to the row of eunuchs first, and looked at each of them.
The six eunuchs reported their names one by one, and Ma Guan chose two that sounded pleasant to the ear: Shuhai and Xiao Chengzi.
The two who were picked hurriedly kowtowed to thank them, while the ones who were not picked showed disappointment.
Eunuch Li stepped forward and complimented him: "Chang Zai is really a good eye. These two boys are very smart and sensible, and Shu Hai can read and write. That's why the manager asked him to keep this name."
Ma Guan nodded, it was really convenient to have a literate person by his side.
She walked up to the row of maids again, and was about to ask a question, when there was a loud noise at the door.
Eunuch Li's eyes lit up: "It's Lagu Su Ma from the Palace of Compassion and Ning."
Ma Guan saw that it was indeed Lagu Su Ma, with two maids behind her, each holding a tray, which looked like a reward.
Her heart warmed, the empress dowager treated her well.
Yipin was a bit sour, I heard that the emperor also rewarded Ma Yuan with many good things, but she didn't have any.
"Su Mala has seen Yipin and Wu Yachang." Aunt Su Ma greeted her politely.
"Excuse me." Yi Bin said kindly, this is a celebrity beside the Empress Dowager, she dare not offend her.
"Auntie, please sit inside." Ma Guan warmly invited.
Aunt Su Ma smiled and said, "The servants will not sit down. The Empress Dowager ordered the servants to come to congratulate them and give them rewards."
She uncovered the red silk on the tray. Inside one was a pair of red coral bracelets, and inside the other were jade ruyis, both of which were favorites of the Empress Dowager.
"Thanks to the great love of the Empress Dowager, Ma Quan is very grateful." Ma Quan's eyes were a little sour, and she had actually served the Empress Dowager for more than half a year.In the next two years, although I occasionally sent some snacks over, after all, I didn't always accompany me.
Aunt Su Ma smiled, seeing Ma Guan sincerely thanked her, secretly thinking that the Empress Dowager did not love her in vain.
"The empress dowager knew that there was no caring person by her side, so she gave two of them, both of whom were familiar with you. Sister, Qiao Yun, why don't you hurry to see the master."
"Your servant has seen Chang Zai." Sister Shuang and Qiao Yun stepped forward to salute together, both smiling.
Ma Quan was surprised and moved: "The Empress Dowager asked Shuangjie and Qiaoyun to come to my place?"
Sister Shuang and Qiao Yun have served the Empress Dowager for two or three years. The Empress Dowager uses it very easily, but now they give it to her?This kindness is far greater than other rewards.
"The Empress Dowager knows that you are familiar with them, so I rewarded you. I hope you will treat them well in the future." Aunt Su Ma gave another blessing, and said: "If you are always here, the servant will leave first."
"I'll send it off to my aunt." Ma Guan walked out, took off the golden hairpin from her hair, and wanted to give it to La Aunt Su Ma as a thank you, but La Aunt Su Ma refused.
"Chang Zai still has a lot of places to spend money in the future, so just keep it for yourself. If Chang Zai really wants to thank you, you should visit the Empress Dowager from time to time." Aunt Su Ma couldn't laugh or cry, and became Chang Zai. At the beginning of this set, it seems to be divided.
"What my aunt said is that Ma Juan will definitely visit the Empress Dowager often in the future." Ma Juan smiled guiltily. After all, she underestimated Aunt Su Ma, and she never came back until she sent people to the gate of the palace.
Eunuch Li smiled apologetically, "The slave didn't know that the Empress Dowager had already made arrangements, so he acted affectionately, so he took them back."
"Eunuch Li is serious. I accept your kindness." Ma Guan winked at Sister Shuang, who had been in the palace for two or three years, so she naturally understood what she meant.
He took out a tael of silver from the bag and stuffed it into Eunuch Li's hand.
Eunuch Li smiled immediately, and greeted the maids and eunuchs to leave.
Soon, only Ma Guan, Yi Pin and the new ladies and eunuchs were left in the courtyard, and it was much cleaner.
"Sister Yipin, I kept you waiting for a long time, please sit inside." Only then did Ma Yuan invite him in. It was also the first time for Ma Yuan to come to this residence, so she was a little unfamiliar.
There are only three rooms in the East Side Hall, one for receiving guests, one for the bedroom, and the remaining one for storing things and resting for the maids. It is really not spacious and cannot be compared with the main hall.
At this time, all the furnishings in the palace were complete, including the things that the emperor rewarded him in the morning were neatly arranged, it seemed like that, Liang Jiugong was indeed very reliable in his work.
Ma Quan couldn't help but slander, no wonder the women in the harem tried their best to climb up, if nothing else, this place would be much better.
After the two sat down, Qiaoyun boiled water and made tea with familiarity. After a while, the aroma of tea lingered, which made people feel refreshed.
"I made my sister laugh. I just moved here, so I don't have anything to entertain my sister." Ma Guan sat at the table, took a look at her new residence, and was quite satisfied.
Yipin smiled and said: "If I minded, I wouldn't come here. You are well organized here. Don't worry about the small living quarters. The emperor loves you so much. I think it won't be long before you will be allowed to live in the main hall."
Living in the Lord's Palace means being a concubine.
Ma Quan shook her head with a smile: "I haven't thought about it, anyway, let's just take it day by day."
"I'm afraid you're the only one who thinks so. Who wouldn't try to climb up?" Yipin also shook her head and laughed. I have been in the palace for ten years."
Ma Guan didn't react for a while, Yibi reminded in a low voice: "You have a higher status than her, and you just moved here today, she should come to say hello to you no matter what. She hasn't shown up until now, she's very airy."
"As long as she doesn't come to provoke me, I don't know anything else." Ma Guan took a sip of tea, and it was tiring to deal with these hypocritical things every day.
"You really have a big heart." Yi Bin felt rather resentful.
"What big heart? Are you talking about me?" Kangxi's voice suddenly sounded outside, and before he finished speaking, a bright yellow figure walked in with a smile on his face. "Concubine Yi is also there."
"The concubine has seen the emperor." Ma Guan and Yi Bin hurriedly saluted and greeted him.
Ma Guan looked suspicious, why did the emperor come?
Concubine Yi is sour and thankful, the sour is that the emperor can't wait to see Ma Guan, but fortunately she has met him.
It really is the right choice to make friends with Ma Guan.
"Why is the emperor here?" Ma Guan was still a little uncomfortable, and she almost called herself a slave before.
"Come and see what's going on here." Kangxi pampered her nose and said with a smile, "It's just about time, so I'll have dinner with you by the way."
