Dressed as Concubine Xian [Comprehensive Yanxi Palace]
Chapter 72 Xia Yuhe's Decision
Xia Yuhe returned to her residence, unable to calm down for a long time.
Today was the first time she met Empress Fucha, but the moment she met, she felt unprecedented shock, panic, and shame.
In terms of appearance alone, although Empress Fucha is far superior to herself, fortunately, she is dying and cannot compare to her youthful beauty.
However, her tolerance and gentleness are something that I will never have!
In front of such an excellent Empress Fucha, she has nothing outstanding except her youth.
No wonder Concubine Xian said that after entering the palace, she would definitely lose sight of everyone.
No wonder...
"Miss, you look very unwell, did you catch a cold?"
Seeing Xia Yuhe's pale face, Qiuyan asked worriedly.
Xia Yuhe shook her head and asked Qiuyan: "You also saw the queen just now, what do you think of the queen?"
"Very noble, very elegant, very temperamental."
Qiu Yan said casually, and after finishing speaking, she remembered that her young lady would also enter the palace, and hurriedly changed her words: "But no matter how noble and beautiful she is, she is still not as beautiful as the young lady—"
"I do have the advantage of being younger than the queen, but every three years there is a draft, which of the selected women is not talented and beautiful? Concubine Xian is right. I am a rare pearl in Jinan Mansion. After entering the palace, I will be just a pearl." Ordinary beads..."
The more Xia Yuhe thought about it, the more sad she felt, feeling that she should not commit herself to Qianlong in a moment of confusion, and now that the raw rice is cooked, even if she wants to turn back, it is impossible, so she burst into tears.
"Miss, why are you crying? This is... this is a big taboo in the palace..."
Qiuyan spoke quickly and said something she shouldn't have said.
Xia Yuhe was startled when she heard the words, and said, "Qiuyan, what did you just say?"
"Nurse Rong told Qiuyan that there are many rules and taboos in the palace. You are not allowed to say inauspicious words, you are not allowed to cry for no reason, you are not allowed to wear plain white clothes, you are not allowed to make noise at night, and you are not allowed to walk around after the palace gate is locked... a lot There are a lot of rules, and if you make a wrong step, you will be punished, which is very scary!"
Qiuyan pursed her lips and snapped her fingers dissatisfied.
She knew that Nanny Rong had good intentions in telling her these rules, but when she thought that she was only 15 years old and had to abide by so many rules, living like a wooden man, she felt very wronged.
Xia Yuhe also had the same thoughts.
The women in the palace she came into contact with in the past few days are all noble and elegant, and they are helpless and sad in following the rules. From this, it can be seen that the emperor just likes the taste of the people that has not faded from her...
If she really enters the palace, she will become the same as the women in the palace after all, and the only precious youth is gone...
How could she occupy a place in Qianlong's heart like that?
Xia Yuhe looked at the room full of Jinxiu, and couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
……
……
On the way back from sending Xia Yuhe back, She Shuxian had already sensed Xia Yuhe's wavering, but she remained silent until dusk, when she walked into Xia Yuhe's residence surrounded by palace people, and said, "Miss Xia, I ordered the small kitchen to make some Small dishes, are you interested in tasting them?"
"Thank you for your kindness, the daughter of the people wants to have dinner with the emperor." Xia Yuhe said innocently.
Seeing her innocence, She Shuxian pointed it out sweetly, and said, "The emperor will not come today."
"No, it's impossible, the emperor...he..."
Speaking of this, Xia Yuhe suddenly realized that she shouldn't say such things in front of Concubine Xian, so she lowered her head.
But She Shuxian didn't care, and said with a smile: "Miss Xia, you haven't entered the palace yet. I don't know that women in the harem usually only see the emperor once a month. It is very rare for the same person to sleep with the same person for several days. There are only a few concubines accompanying us on a tour of Shandong, but not everyone can see the emperor every day."
"Don't you feel uncomfortable? You only see the emperor once a month?"
Xia Yuhe was puzzled and asked She Shuxian.
She Shuxian said: "Before entering the palace, you may feel uncomfortable listening to the things in the palace, but after entering the palace, you will feel that such a life should be taken for granted. If you feel lonely, you can worship Buddha, practice Zen, embroider, paint... After that, you will be happy. There will be no more difficult days.”
"Concubine Xian, how do you understand it so well? Don't you see the emperor often?"
After all, Qiuyan was ignorant, so she interjected abruptly.
Xia Yuhe hastily reprimanded: "Qiuyan, don't talk nonsense!"
She Shuxian smiled and said: "The emperor is the king of a country, and there are too many things to be busy. Even as a noble concubine, it is normal not to see the emperor for ten and a half months. Miss Xia, you have to cherish the time in Jinan." During these days, after entering the palace, you will no longer be able to see the emperor all the time like now."
"... Shen Gong, is it really so scary?"
Xia Yuhe became more and more uneasy.
She Shuxian said: "Once I entered the Hou's gate, it was as deep as the sea, and Xiao Lang has been a passerby since then. If the Hou's gate is like this, the depth of the palace gate is naturally immeasurable."
"As soon as you enter the Houmen, it's as deep as the sea..."
Xia Yuhe silently recited She Shuxian's words, and his heart was touched again.
Seeing that she was close to collapse, She Shuxian deliberately took a step back, and said: "Since Miss Xia insists on waiting for the emperor to come before having dinner, I can't force it, so I will leave first."
When you're done, turn around and leave.
After hearing what She Shuxian said, Xia Yuhe's heart was already shaken, but she refused to change her words because of her ridiculous dignity, so she gritted her teeth and said, "The daughter of the people sends the concubine to the imperial concubine!"
……
After leaving Xia Yuhe's residence, Rong Wan asked She Shuxian: "Madam, why is Xia Yuhe so ungrateful!"
She Shuxian said: "It's good if you don't know how to flatter. I've seen a lot of people like her, and I think she's outstanding and independent, and she has to be beaten to the bone to realize how ridiculous she is!"
"According to your empress, could it be that you are sure that Xia Yuhe will not enter the palace?"
"I don't care if she enters the palace at all," She Shuxian said, "If she enters the palace, the harem has ten thousand ways to make her confidant. She is nothing more than an unmarried woman who lost her virginity and was reviled for the rest of her life."
"Your Majesty is really thorough!" Rong Wan praised.
She Shuxian thought to herself, if it wasn't for Xia Yuhe being Ziwei's mother, and Ziwei was tied up with little Yanzi and fifth elder brother Yongqi, I wouldn't bother trying to persuade Xia Yuhe to stay in Jinan, but my mouth was calm and said: " It's just that I've seen a lot of women like this, and I'm used to it. Madam Rong, if Qiu Yan asks you about the affairs of the palace again, just tell the truth, lest they really think that the harem is covered with gold and everyone wears brocade, It is the best place in the world.”
"Whoo!"
……
……
Xia Yuhe waited until the eclipse of the moon and did not wait for Qianlong to come over for dinner.
When she asked Qiuyan to heat the food for the fifth time, Qiuyan couldn't help but said: "Miss, this dish is so hot that the leaves are turning yellow! The emperor will definitely not come tonight! You will die." This heart, rest early!"
"But I want to wait, I want to wait for a result, a result that makes me give up."
Xia Yuhe looked out the window at the moon and stars, with an extremely resolute expression.
Qiu Yan had no choice but to bring down the already yellowed dishes, sat opposite Xia Yuhe, and propped his jaw with one hand: "Miss, I regret it, we shouldn't come to the palace, let alone want to enter the palace. There are already such big rules in the palace." , the rules after entering the palace will only become more and more stringent, we simply can't get through it."
"But I am already the emperor's man, we have no possibility..."
Like Qiu Yan, Xia Yuhe felt extremely regretful in her heart, but she lived in the hometown of Confucius and Mencius and had received chastity education since she was a child. If people found out that she was unmarried, she would lose her integrity...
"Miss, we are so stupid. We thought that you and the emperor are like Yingying and Zhang Sheng in the storybook. There will be lovers who will eventually get married and grow old together. I didn't expect... I didn't expect..."
Thinking of her daughter's dilemma, Qiu Yan couldn't help but sigh.
Xia Yuhe also sighed, and said: "How can there be so many Yingying and Zhang Sheng in the world? It's just that I am too simple and too gullible... Now, after entering the palace, I may not be able to stay with the emperor forever, and I have to be like Erqing all day long." Those who are called sisters...Stay in Jinan and have to face the pointing and pointing of the world, why am I...how come...such a miserable life!"
The more Xia Yuhe thought about it, the more sad she became, and she began to cry.
Seeing Xia Yuhe crying sadly, Qiuyan couldn't help thinking of a crooked idea, saying: "Miss, why don't we find a place where no one knows us and start over?!"
"It's useless, I've lost my integrity, everywhere I go...is..."
The more Xia Yuhe cried, the more she felt that her life was suffering.
"Miss! You don't stay here! You don't go away! What do you want to do!"
Qiuyan was impatient for a while, and unconsciously said something serious.
Xia Yuhe didn't expect Qiuyan to blame herself, and cried even more sadly.
After all, Qiuyan is a maid, seeing the young lady crying sadly, she said helplessly: "If the young lady really thinks that the palace is scary, we will not enter the palace and go to the nunnery for the rest of my life!"
"Then how can..."
Xia Yuhe felt a little bit reluctant to lose her hair as a nun.
Seeing this, Qiuyan said: "I think that what Concubine Xian said to the young lady is half heard and half not heard. She is a noble concubine, and she doesn't want the emperor to favor the young lady alone. But who the emperor likes is the emperor's business, she doesn't care. Fa makes decisions for the emperor, so he can only describe the affairs in the palace in a ghastly manner, intimidating the young lady, and making the young lady alienate the emperor herself."
"You have some truth in what you say."
Xia Yuhe had already lost her mind at this time, after hearing what Qiuyan said, she thought it was correct, and said, "Qiuyan, in your opinion, what should we do?"
Qiuyan said: "Miss, I think we should leave the palace first. When the emperor finds out that she is missing, he will take the initiative to find her, and then take the opportunity to make him promise to make her a concubine after returning to Beijing! In this way, even if the emperor loses sight of her in the future, the lady will As a concubine, you don't need to be with Er Qing and others!"
"Concubine?"
Xia Yuhe looked up and glanced at She Shuxian's room.
The lights in the room have been turned off, but there are still palace ladies busy in and out...
This is still in the palace, everything is simple and easy, if it is in the Forbidden City, the number of people waiting for the noble concubine to sleep will be several times that of the palace...
