Dressed as Concubine Xian [Comprehensive Yanxi Palace]

After officially becoming a queen, She Shuxian finally understood the difficulty of empress Xiaoxian.

Although when she was an imperial concubine, she was already acting as an acting queen, exercising the power of a queen, and doing the work of a queen, but only after becoming a queen did she realize that there is only one step between the queen and the imperial concubine, and the representative power and The corresponding obligations are vastly different.

No wonder Empress Xiaoxian was so lively and free when she was in her boudoir, but after becoming a queen, she has to endure and repress everywhere. The position of queen is indeed both honorable and sad.

She Shuxian decided to hide her strength and bide her time from now on, ignoring all bloody calculations, and concentrate on raising Yong Cong, becoming the Virgin in Qianlong's heart.

……

……

The queen position has been decided, but the minds of the women in the harem are more active.

Concubine Shu was the first to realize the key point, and said to herself: "Compared to Empress Xiaoxian Fucha, the successor Huifanara is obviously a woman who the emperor doesn't care about. She has been with the emperor for 16 years. , has not had a child so far, and the only child under her knees is Empress Xiaoxian's seventh elder brother, Yong Cong! It can be seen that the emperor made Hui Fanara the queen, but he wanted to make Yong Cong's position as the heir apparent more stable. Although Nala is a queen, she is respected and not favored!"

"Then what should we do?" Lu Wanwan, who had been in the palace for many years and was still a nobleman, looked at Concubine Shu in puzzlement.

Concubine Shu said: "Naturally, it is to support the empress, let the emperor believe that we have never surpassed the heart of the empress and Yong Cong, and then take the opportunity to earn a concubine for you."

"Sister, you..."

Mrs. Qing was quite flattered.

Concubine Shu said: "Wanwan, we are sisters who entered the palace together, I don't want you to live a wronged life!"

"My sister is so kind to me..."

Qing nobleman lowered his head and remained silent.

Concubine Shu patted her on the shoulder encouragingly, and said: "Let's go, let's go to Yikun Palace to greet the empress, and find out what other palaces are holding."

"Ah."

Lady Qing wiped away her tears, and went to Yikun Palace with Concubine Shu.

……

Yikun Palace and Kunning Palace are the only two palaces in the Forbidden City with "Kun" in their names, which together with the "Qian" in Qianqing Palace constitute the word "Qiankun". Let the successors stay in Yikun Palace, which shows how much the emperor treats successors attention.

At least, that's what the concubines said when they visited the Queen in Yikun Palace.

She Shuxian knew that most of them were sweet-hearted, so she accepted the compliment with a smile, and said: "I was a queen at the beginning, so I dare not be arrogant. Everything in the harem follows the old rules of empress Xiaoxian, but now it is a prosperous age. Although thrift is a virtue, it should not be too much." Pass."

"Your Majesty is right. Everyone has the desire to love beauty, and this dynasty is prosperous and glorious. It is indeed time to relax the dress restrictions on concubines."

Concubine Shu was the first to express her agreement, and other concubines also agreed with She Shuxian's suggestion - after the regulations were relaxed, they would have more choices in their daily attire, which would be more attractive and stand out more easily.

She Shuxian then discussed with the concubines about the draft.

When a newcomer is coming to the palace, the concubines will inevitably feel uncomfortable, but the rules of the ancestors cannot be broken, so they can only agree with aggrieved, and then start to make their own small calculations.

She Shuxian sat in the center, watching the progress bars above the heads of the concubines flickering, knowing that they were busy with calculations, but she pretended to be the Virgin Mary. After talking about the draft, she discussed with the concubines whether to give the concubines nearly ten years to enter the palace. So far, there is no nomination for concubine concubine.

After talking like this for two hours, She Shuxian finally made up the matter and reported it to Qianlong only after he came to court.

The concubines retreated one by one, and She Shuxian felt a little sleepy, and was about to ask Wei Yanwan to massage herself, but another court lady said, "Yanwan said that the empress likes to drink flower dew, and she went to the Imperial Garden to pick flower dew early in the morning. "

"She's very attentive."

She Shuxian smiled slightly, and didn't ask Wei Yanwan why she went to the Imperial Garden to collect flower dew before dawn, but she didn't return to Yikun Palace until the sun was up.

The more self-motivated the women in the harem, the easier it is to climb high and fall hard!

Let these black-eyed chickens risk their lives to fight for favor, I will sit firmly on the Diaoyutai in Yikun Palace!

……

……

After discovering that the emperor respects the queen but does not favor her, and that it is difficult for the queen to conceive a dragon fetus, Wei Yanwan decisively adjusted her policy, using the excuse that the queen likes flower dew to make tea, and would come to the imperial garden every day before dawn to "pick flower dew" until the emperor left court Half an hour later, after confirming that he would not meet the emperor today, he returned to Yikun Palace with regret.

After persisting in this way for more than a month, she finally met Qianlong who came to admire the autumn chrysanthemums in the imperial garden on a cold and windy morning.

Qianlong had always been arty, and he couldn't put it down like Lengshuang Qiuju, the hermit's thing. He had to accompany Prince Hongzhou, and when he passed the chrysanthemum bushes, he couldn't help sighing, saying: "Plucking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, you can see Nanshan leisurely. Xijia, the flying bird returns. Mr. Wuliu's poems are really a celebrity! Hong Zhou, which poet's poem about chrysanthemum is your favorite?"

"I like Layman Yi'an's 'After Dongli pours wine at dusk, there is a dark fragrance and sleeves'. There are no chrysanthemums, but there are chrysanthemums everywhere."

"Hong Zhou, you are in your prime, and you actually like Lay Yi'an's sad words. A gentle marriage will really hurt you a lot!"

Qianlong shook his head and walked to the pond. He saw the remnants of the lotus withered, and a court lady was collecting dew among the lotus leaves. .The Baidi elves are young and feminine, and the bamboo tripod in Huishan goes over the kiln."

Hearing this, Li Yu quickly flattered her: "Your Majesty, what a poem! What a poem!"

Hong Zhou said to the imperial literati accompanying him: "Hurry up and write down the emperor's good lines!"

"Whoo!"

The literati quickly recorded that Qianlong also said to Li Yu after some self-satisfaction: "Go and call the woman who picked the autumn dew, I will reward her!"

"Whoo."

Li Yu went to the pond in person, called the palace maid who picked the flower dew, and said, "What's your name? Where do you work?"

"The servant's name is Yan Wan, and she is a maid of Yikun Palace."

Wei Yanwan knew that the opportunity was too late to come back, and answered Li Yu's question with the softest voice.

Li Yu let out a "huh" and said to Wei Yanwan: "Since you are a court lady next to the empress, I think she understands the rules. Come with me, the emperor will reward you!"

"Thank you, Manager Li."

Wei Yanwan followed Li Yu with a low eyebrow, walked up to Qianlong, prostrated herself on the ground and said, "Slave Yikun Palace Wei Yanwan pays my respects to the Emperor!"

"Get up."

"Whoo."

Wei Yanwan stood up, raised her head slightly, and looked shy and timid.

Qianlong had just uttered a good sentence, and he was in a good mood. He couldn't help but glance at Wei Yanwan who inspired his poetic quality, and said, "Are you really working in the Queen's Palace? Why does it look like... No, you and her look like each other. It's not like..."

"Brother Huang, who do you think of?" Hong Zhou asked.

Qianlong sneered and said, "Who else can be! In the entire Forbidden City, besides her, who else is spoiled by the empress so lawlessly that he dares to contradict me!"

Hearing the words, Hongzhou realized that the "she" that the emperor's brother said was Fu Heng's wife, Guerjia Yingluo, and said with a wry smile: "My brother has also been contradicted before."

"Forget it, it's all over."

Qianlong shook his fan and said to Wei Yanwan: "What did you say your name was?"

"The slave's name is Wei Yanwan."

"Wei Yanwan..."

Qianlong pondered for a while, and said, "Who are you, Wei Qingtai from the House of Internal Affairs!"

"Wei Qingtai is the slave's uncle." Wei Yan said softly, with a smile and a frown full of tenderness.

Qianlong thought that her appearance was somewhat similar to Guerjia Yingluo, but now he was sure that they were related by blood. Looking at Wei Yanwan's face, he suddenly felt that although the two had similar facial features, their temperaments were quite different.

Guarjia Yingluo is a stubborn woman, her facial features are as smelly and hard as her temper.

Wei Yanwan is different.

Although her facial features are only a little more delicate than Guerjia Yingluo, she has a soft and affectionate temperament, like a shy lotus in the autumn wind, which is lovable.

"You look completely different from your cousin," Qianlong said, "She will never show such tenderness to me."

Hong Zhou also said: "The cousins ​​of the Wei family are indeed different."

Wei Yanwan only knew that Guerjiayingluo married into Fucha's family because of Empress Xiaoxian's blue eyes, but she knew little about her cousin's behavior in Changchun Palace. Hearing this, she felt uneasy, wondering whether Qianlong was satisfied with her or not. Satisfied, I can only stand with my hands down, waiting for the hair.

After Qianlong sighed with Qiuhe Dongli, he finally thought of Wei Yanwan in front of him again.

He glanced at the dew bottle in Wei Yanwan's hand, and said, "Do you come to the imperial garden every day to pick dew?"

"The empress is elegant and likes to make tea with flower dew, so the servants volunteered to come to the imperial garden every day to pick flower dew."

Wei Yanwan couldn't figure out Qianlong's temper, so she could only lower her eyebrows and be pleasing to the eye as much as possible.

Qianlong saw that although she looked exactly like Guerjia Yingluo, her personality was completely different from that person's. She was soft and meek, and there was a certain charm in it, so he was not moved, and said to Li Yu: "This woman is not bad, give her some good things!"

"Whoo."

Li Yu is such a shrewd person, upon hearing the words, he knew that Qianlong was quite interested in Wei Yanwan, so he took Wei Yanwan down to receive the reward with a smile on his face, and said on the way: "Miss Yanwan, if you are favored by the emperor in the future and become the young master, Don't forget about Li Yu!"

"Boss Li is joking, Yan Wan is just a court lady who collects dew for the queen, so she is not qualified to be the master."

Wei Yanwan said modestly, but she was overjoyed in her heart.

Seeing the smile in the corner of her eyes, Li Yu knew that the woman was vain, and reminded: "Miss Yanwan, your cousin was once a respectable court lady in front of Empress Xiaoxian, if you can show respect in every way like your cousin For Empress Xiaoxian's respect, the emperor will definitely appreciate you greatly, and your favor will not be far away."

"Empress Xiaoxian's mother honors the world. It is the duty of a slave to show respect to her. She is tactful and dull, and dare not use such a duty to ask the emperor for credit."

Wei Yanwan said with a mixed heart, but she was planning in her heart how to use this information to express herself.
