[Red Mansions] The Road to Empress Dowager

Su Qing and Zhao Quan were eunuchs, standing on the outside, they couldn't help being frightened when they saw this slap, and they squeezed in to separate the two without caring about anything else.

Su Qing and Zhao Quan saw Ziyue and Qingxuan supporting Xing Xiuyan, who still had a slap on his face, and hurriedly knelt down: "It's not good for a slave to protect the master, the slave deserves to die!"

Su Qing said: "This slave will go and invite the imperial physician, and ask the master to move to the Luoxia Pavilion first."

Xing Xiuyan touched her hot cheeks, and said coldly, "It's just a slap, what kind of imperial doctor is invited?"

At this time Liu Jingru felt somewhat regretful, but when she heard her say this, she thought: She really was bluffing, the relationship in the palace is not so good.

Shen Man chuckled, and left with high spirits along with his eunuchs and maids.

The other new concubines, maids, and eunuchs looked at Xing Xiuyan's master and servant with contempt, and the one who was slapped in the face in public did not resist, which shows his extreme weakness.

Moving to Luoxia Pavilion, Ziyue and Jinyao rubbed anti-swelling medicine on Xing Xiuyan, Xue Jue and Qingxuan were very angry there.

Qingxuan said angrily: "Girl, no, you are too hot-tempered, why don't you fight back?"

Xing Xiuyan hated her so much, but didn't show it on her face, she just said: "When a scholar meets a soldier, how to fight back, I will say what I have to say. I can't do the same thing as my sister and sister. You and I will die here. Everyone They are all happy."

No one has ever slapped her. This is the emperor. Zhen Huan, who is loved by everyone in the palace, will be humiliated, let alone her.

But Ziyue said: "How can a talented person say that? A sage cherishes a talented person, and a sage is his reliance."

Xing Xiuyan said: "Is it interesting? Whether Liu Xiaoyi or Shen Xiaoyuan are concubines in the harem, who is not a saint's woman?"

Xing Xiuyan thinks about it, but puts all her hatred towards Liu Jingru and Shen Man on Tu Yuanyi.The feelings of relatives and the decision to ruin her life made Xing Xiuyan have mixed feelings, and she didn't know whether she loved him or hated him.

Zi Yue said: "But talented people are different in the hearts of saints."

Xing Xiuyan said: "Liu, Shen and others are just the beginning. They can't bear it anymore. It's better to hang themselves. There are so many beautiful women in the harem. There is no one behind the scenes. Everyone looks down on them, so what can they do? Left and right are bothering the family now." Give something to come in, and live like this, this kind of nosy matter, don't mess with it in the future."

Many maids and eunuchs couldn't help being dumbfounded, only then did they realize how cowardly their high-spirited master was.Where did Hua Chao's domineering inscription in public as a gift to Ms. Lin's family?Where did the arrogance of the three-way friendship in Taoyuan by the river go?

Xing Xiuyan is not just cowardly, she has the nature of a hermit, in fact, the essence of an indifferent hermit is relatively noble, and the people and things she despises are more stubborn.

There is no solution to this matter now. In the harem, the essence is who can sleep with the emperor better, but what she can borrow is that he has a difference in his heart and sleeps a few more nights.If you let the emperor sleep a few more nights, you win. Although it is a bit ridiculous, it is the truth.And other leisure energy is very vain and has no real benefit.

Their uncles and nephews have a stronger emotional foundation than Shen and Liu, and they are also prettier than them, so they will have a brighter future.In this kind of place, there is no way to retreat, and we have to fight.

After taking the medicine and passing on the food, she went to rest early in the new residence.In the evening, because I went to a new place and started a completely different life, I couldn't help but have all kinds of distracting thoughts.

The little Luoxia Pavilion where this low-level concubine lived was the beginning of his two-life marriage. Since the two lives, he has considered getting married, but he has never thought about being a concubine, and it is such a low-level concubine.

She walked into the "in-law's house" just like that with her bundled up. There was no wedding, no wedding dress, no wind crown and rosy cloak, no gift money, and no blessings of a happy marriage for a hundred years.

This room is her new house, she is "married" today, and on the day of "newly married", someone slapped her and scolded her asshole.Today she was "married", but the groom did not show up, because he was also someone else's groom.

Ordinary people have to set up a few tables of wine for concubines, but she has nothing.

Tears couldn't stop pouring out, her throat was swollen, and she bit her hand fiercely, afraid that she would cry out.

But there was a hoarse whimper in her throat, and Xue Jue, who was sleeping on the couch outside the screen and on duty at night, still heard it, and turned on the light to come in.

"Tairen, what's wrong with you?"

Xue Jue opened the curtain, and saw her biting her arm, tears streaming down her face, and an abnormal hissing sound from her throat.

"Tairen! What are you doing! You can't bite!" Xue Jue rushed to pull her.

Only then did Xing Xiuyan let go of her mouth. Xue Jue was shocked when she saw blood stains on her hand, and quickly called Su Qing, who was on duty at night, to get the medicine, while the others fell asleep all night.

When Su Qing heard that his master was injured again, he was so frightened that his gallbladder became cold, and hurriedly brought over all the medicines in the medicine box.

Xue Jue quickly found out the trauma medicine, and asked Su Qing to wake others up, Xing Xiuyan said in a hoarse voice, "Don't bother, it's in the middle of the night."

Xue Jue also said that it was because Liu Jingru beat her during the day, and Shen Man's humiliation made her feel at ease, and she couldn't help persuading her: "Talent man, why are you doing this? If you are angry or feel wronged, just say it. Why bother to belittle yourself?"

Xing Xiuyan saw Xue Jue carefully administering the medicine to her, thinking that the palace was dark and she was still a master, but the life of these four maidservants was even more difficult.

"Xue Jue, am I particularly useless?"

Xue Jue has a gentle temperament and is considerate. She said: "Talents and talents are both beautiful and beautiful. There are 23 beautiful women who entered the palace this time. I don't think there is any one who is as talented as a talent."

Xing Xiuyan said leisurely: "Who wants to compare with them? If I hadn't been blinded by greed, I wouldn't have made a living by embroidery, and I wouldn't have been blind. If I hadn't been blind, I might not have met a saint. Find me It’s not necessarily bad for an honest person to marry. After all, she has never seen the riches and honors of the world, so she will only get into the eyes of money.” When Ah Piao, she could play with the treasures looted from Tu Yuanyi’s treasury at will, but at that time it was not You don't need to look at it for two days and forget about it. After becoming a person, money is of great use, but she was born with no money, so she had to seek it.

Xue Jue was taken aback, and said: "Young man, my mother said that such words are absolutely unacceptable."

Xing Xiuyan couldn't help sighing again, but she was destined not to talk to her about some things. Seeing that she had put on the antiseptic and hemostatic medicine, she asked her to go down to rest too.

But Xue Jue said she wanted to stay with her, she was afraid that something might happen to her, Xing Xiuyan couldn't do it, so she had to go to sleep first.

……

Tu Yuanyi returned to Taiji Palace early in the morning, changed his clothes in the bedroom, and changed into court clothes, and the eunuch and maid changed into regular clothes for him.

However, Zhao Gui came to report that Wang An, the eunuch of Li, accompanied him during the court meeting. Although Zhao Gui was the most favored, Wang An was the No. 1 eunuch in the palace by name.

Zhao Gui reported to Tu Yuanyi after seeing everyone retreating in a file: "Master, Master Xing is injured."

Tu Yuanyi frowned, and said, "Didn't you say you were fine yesterday?" He knew about the slap, and he was very annoyed at the outsiders who beat him, but Liu Jingru and Shen Man had nothing to do with the royal family. There are relationships.It was not appropriate to clean up the two of them for her the first day after entering the palace. Besides, it would be a greater tragedy to keep these two women locked up in this harem for a lifetime.

Zhao Gui said: "Master Xing was probably wronged after thinking about it at night. He cried so much and even bit his hand. It's really pitiful."

Tu Yuanyi frowned and said, "She can't bear it, and she doesn't cry or make trouble during the day."

Zhao Gui said: "That person has sealed Xiaoyi, and has the support of the Empress Dowager. Master Xing's tolerance is just a wise move to calm things down and protect himself. There is a difference in the rules of the harem."

Tu Yuanyi wished to see her right away, but in the end he changed his mind, thinking to himself, let her know the reality, let her know that in this palace she has only him to rely on, so as not to get angry with him, always thinking about not letting her down She was wronged by being brought into the palace when she was a princess.

Tu Yuanyi ordered Zhao Gui to make more detailed arrangements in life, and asked him to arrange for Liu and Shen to suffer some secret losses in the palace, but don't let anyone find out.

Thus, Liu Jingru and Shen Man were allocated the worst clothes, dresses that didn't fit at all, and sometimes bad food overnight, which made them angry for a while.But facing the eunuchs in the palace who were delivering things, the low-rank concubines who had just entered the palace had no choice but to send money.

Zhao Gui also hinted that his confidant Wang Fu had made a trip in the past, and on the first day he hinted at asking for bribes from the two of them as an servant in the Tai Chi Palace. It was too little, so Liu Jingru had no choice but to give 500 taels.When he arrived at Shen Mana, he also extorted 1000 taels of bribes.

However, Wang Fu later hinted that he would give the eunuchs Liu and Shen a portion. If they had money, they would give them normal meals.

In fact, there are always some good and bad eunuchs in these cases. The question is who gives the bad ones. It’s not easy for the unfavored concubines to live in the harem. Can't tell.It is said that the harem fights are so fierce, but in fact, when I meet a faint king whose heart is in his armpits, women fight back and forth like dancing masters, who makes men have the final say in this era.

And there are many ways to trick people, and they don't need to shout and kill.And they just entered the palace without foundation, and they dared to send the eunuchs who were sent to the court to fail.

Therefore, Liu and Shen spent money in the palace no less than Jia Yuanchun.

Tu Yuanyi endured not seeing her, but in the end he was offended. When she was disobedient and misbehaving, he was not willing to beat her, so when would it be someone else's turn?

Tu Yuanyi acted in a more domineering style when he was reborn, but the calculation and meanness that was forced out by the four-sided elbow system in his previous life are still there.

On the face of it, they are not punished very much, and their status will be promoted later, but they will always be sucked into blood and become dissatisfied wives in the palace. They have never experienced happiness, which is the most poisonous revenge.

And if you slap him back, it will be fine if it hurts a bit. How could there be a more poisonous method that can drive a woman crazy?There are still fewer crazy women in the cold palace in the past dynasties?

As for the fact that the harem system is the scourge, His Majesty Suzong, the unreasonable troublemaker at the end of the straight man's cancer, chose to ignore it.Regarding the wronged heart, he thought that she would definitely want to hug his thigh and beg for mercy, and then he would naturally do whatever he wanted, and she would have to be obedient and soft-spoken.

But someone's script was slightly different, but he didn't expect it.
