It's Hard to Be the Concubine of the Red Chamber

Chapter 33

Because he had already formally reported to Tu Mingxuan, Yuanchun patiently rejected Jiang Cairen again when he greeted him the next day.And not long after returning to Fengzao Palace this day, Yuan Chun justifiably announced that the imperial physician was officially on sick leave.

This is what Yuan Chun and Tu Mingxun agreed upon—after all, Jiang Cairen is pregnant now, unlike in the past, so there really shouldn't be any more alarming and harsh criticisms.What's more, what Yuan Chun said was just her own guesswork. There was no real evidence, and it was not enough to convict Jiang Cairen.

And Yuan Chun would not be reconciled to letting Tu Ming make a decree to ground himself for Jiang Cairen's actions.

Therefore, Yuan Chun and Tu Mingxun came up with the idea that they would not be sick.

"It's a villain's heart to be a concubine, the Holy Majesty, but after all, when she had nothing to do with Jiang Cairen before, she could still come up with the idea of ​​framing the concubine to harm Concubine An and the eldest son of the emperor, it was only two or three times What happened a few months ago. Yin Jian is not far away, but now my concubine dare not bet on whether Jiang Cairen really intends to change his ways. The Holy Majesty also knows that my concubine has been in the palace for many years. It’s not too late to talk about other things when Jiang Cairen’s pregnancy is completely stable.” Although Yuan Chun told Tu Mingxuan Jiang's complaint, but he didn't say how to ask Tu Mingjun to deal with Jiang. Instead, he first suggested that he could wrong himself a little, and only hoped that everything would be safe and smooth.

One must know that since Yuan Chun claimed that he would not be sick, it would be impossible for him to stay in bed.And for the concubines in the harem who are bent on fighting for favor, this is undoubtedly harmful but not beneficial.

If Yuan Chun was just to give Jiang Cairen eye drops, there was absolutely no need to wrong himself so much.

It was because of this that Tu Mingjun believed that what Yuan Chun said was really out of caution rather than eliminating dissidents, so he didn't really annoy Yuan Chun.

Even after Yuanchun was sick, he still didn't forget to send people to reward Yuanchun with a lot of things every now and then to show that although Yuanchun couldn't sleep with him, he didn't really fall out of favor.

----split line----

Different from other people's views on this matter, Yuan Chun is really not very satisfied with his current "falling out of favor" status quo.

To be honest, it is not a good thing to be the number one favorite concubine in the harem when she intends to hug the queen's thigh - if it were someone else, she would still be able to bear a little bit of hostility from the queen's empress and try to conceive a child so that she can hope for the rest of her life , but Yuan Chun received the guidance of the dream, but knew that he would not be able to conceive for many years in the future, even until he died, so naturally he seemed a little indifferent to these favors.

To be honest, for her, Tu Mingjun came to chat with her during the day and not to spend the night with her every now and then, that was the way she wanted to get along most.

It doesn't make people feel that she is out of favor, and it won't arouse others' fear.

As it is now, Yuan Chun is quite satisfied.

It doesn't let others bully and underestimate her, and it's very safe.

There are not many people in the palace now, and the few low-ranking concubines who came out of the hidden mansion are undoubtedly very restrained. Although they are not in harmony with Yuan Chun on weekdays, they don't have any enmity.Among the high-ranking concubines, the concubine Jian was used to keeping a low profile on weekdays, and her relationship with Yuan Chun was not bad.Concubine An was busy raising the eldest son of the emperor and competing for favor. Although she never got used to Yuan Chun, she had no time to be distracted. Instead, she only said a few sarcastic remarks behind her back and forgot Yuan Chun.

But the queen empress is busy with palace affairs and drafting matters, and has no time to be distracted.

——Before Yuan Chun shared some of the more cumbersome and troublesome things, but now that Yuan Chun said he was sick, all these things naturally fell on the queen.

As I said many times before, Tu Mingjun basically sat on the throne only after picking up the pie that fell from the sky.The so-called one person attains the Tao and ascends to heaven. Although many people around him have accepted the new identity, it is difficult for them to adapt to their current identity.

If it was like what Yuanchun experienced in the dream, when Tu Mingjun first came to the throne, the queen had to accept all the palace affairs, facing people she knew before, gritting her teeth and holding on for a year or so, probably She got used to being a queen—but now Yuan Chun worked hard to help the queen share the difficult palace affairs when she was favored on the first day of the junior high school, but she made the queen a little coquettish.

Nowadays, for a while, the queen is actually inseparable from Yuanchun, and after the newcomer enters the palace, Yuanchun will become more and more important to the queen.

After all, compared to those young, beautiful girls with outstanding family background, Yuan Chun is a bit older after all, and his family background is only glamorous. In fact, Yuan Chun's natal family often has no strength at all—it just so happens that Yuan Chun's knowledge and ability It's really something that can only be brought up by first-class people.

What Yuanchun had to do was to protect himself well before this batch of newcomers entered the palace.

----split line----

Fengzao Palace ushered in a temporary calm.

But there are always people who are unwilling to accept this peace.

Such as Jiang Cairen.

Jiang Cairen was really unwilling and did not dare to wait any longer.

After all, in her eyes, as long as Yuan Chun is no longer threatened, she will be able to return to her original position to raise her son.

Although Yuanchun closed the palace to recuperate and other people did not come to Fengzao Palace, after all, what Yuanchun claims now is just a common weak disease of women in the palace, not a disease that can infect others.So Fengzao Palace was not actually closed, nor did it really refuse to be visited by others. It's just that there are not many people in the palace now, and it happens that they don't have this kind of intention, which makes the family seem a little cold.

Under such circumstances, Jiang Cairen insisted on going to Fengzao Palace every two days.

To be honest, Yuan Chun did not welcome Jiang Cairen's arrival.But who makes Jiang Cairen's status so valuable now? Although Yuan Chun's status is more than a little higher than Jiang Cairen's, but in the end, Jiang Cairen's emperor's face can't be too negligent, so although Yuan Chun is unwilling to see I don't want to see her, but in the end, I still told the people in the palace to give Jiang Cairen food and drink every time, and serve him thoughtfully.

But Yuan Chun still pays attention to it. Whenever Jiang Cairen comes, from taking her into the palace to sending Jiang Cairen away, Yuan Chun only let Mo Xiangxiuyan follow her closely along the way. The good name is that the concubine Xian is unwell, so they naturally have to serve the concubine Xian well.

Among these two people, Mo Xiang was placed on the bright side by Tu Ming, while Xiu Yan was placed secretly by Tu Ming, and Xiu Yan was buried relatively deep. With the guidance of the memory in the dream, Yuan Chun did not find Xiu Yan's identity so easily.

But beside Yuan Chun, there was another court lady named Le'er, who Yuan Chun wanted to come from Tu Mingxuan's side after he had made an agreement with Tu Mingxuan.

Zuo Zuo Yuanchun is currently in the concubine position. According to the concubine's status, she can already have four first-class maids by her side. Except for the original one who holds the piano, ink, fragrant and beautiful inkstone, the remaining one is just right. Gave it to Leer.

As for Wu'er, whom Yuan Chun had always liked before, she was a little younger than the previous four, and was not suitable for a high position.So now Wu'er is still honestly the head of the eight second-class court ladies, only waiting for three or four years later when Baoqin is old enough to leave the palace or comb herself, at that time Wu'er just took up Baoqin and gave it up This position is right, nothing will be delayed.

Calculated in this way, among the first-class or preparatory first-class court ladies around Yuan Chun, except for Baoqin and Wu'er, who could barely be regarded as Yuan Chun's direct descendants, the remaining three were actually Tu Mingxuan.

Mo Xiang and Le'er were bestowed by Tu Mingqin, and their identities are beyond doubt.But Yuan Chun has always been generous, and he did not shy away from them when he acted. In addition, Xiuyan and other eyeliners secretly communicated with Tu Mingjun about Yuan Chun's situation on a regular basis. Very frank.

It's not the kind of magnanimity of the so-called White Lotus, but compared to the intrigues and tricks in the harem, Yuan Chun seems to prefer to use scheming to kill all dangers in the cradle.

Such as today.

Mo Xiang and Wu'er went to send Jiang Cairen back to the palace, while Yuan Chun learned how to mix fragrance with Le'er in the side hall that was originally arranged as an embroidery room.

Mo Xiang was just a second-class maid at the beginning, and she didn't have any special advantages.Although Leer is also ordinary in appearance, she has a good skill in perfumery.

Apart from copying and reading books, Yuan Chun spends his spare time studying these things with Le Er, so he won't feel bored for a while.

One must know that Yuan Chun has always been a master of self-satisfaction, and now even though he has locked himself in Fengzao Palace, he can always find something for himself to do.

However, I have to say that compared to Yuan Chun's talent in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, her ability in perfumery and pharmaceuticals is really terrible-even if she has studied with Leer for more than half a month, she can at most be able to learn from Leer. When teaching her how to prepare some of the simplest spices.

In Le'er's words, Concubine Xian's sensitivity to these complicated things is really insufficient.

But Yuan Chun showed that he enjoyed it very much.

"Life is short, and it feels good to find something that I'm not good at and work hard." Regarding his weakness in this area, Yuan Chun is very optimistic.

It gave Le'er a headache.

----split line----

Fengzao Palace is full of joy and harmony, but the outside of Fengzao Palace is not so peaceful.

Jiang Cairen fell outside Fengzao Palace and almost had a miscarriage.

Although he didn't fall in Fengzao Palace, the path where Jiang Cairen fell was the only way to Fengzao Palace, and he couldn't easily avoid it.

Now it's the end of March, and although the weather is still a bit chilly, the snow has gradually melted away, so logically speaking, it won't make people slip.It's just that the path outside Fengzao Palace is always shady and cooler than other places. In addition, after Jiang Cairen was pregnant, she was authorized to use the ordinary shoulders carried by two people, which made the shoulder lifter accidentally slip. One fall.

Then Jiang Cai just slid off the shoulders.

At that time, Mo Xiang and Wu'er were walking on both sides of Jianyu, and when they saw the accident, they were a little silly on the spot.

After all, Mo Xiang was two or three years older than Wu'er, and he came out from Tu Mingjun's side, so he was still calmer than Wu'er, so he sent Wu'er to call the imperial physician on the spot, and ordered him to serve by Jiang Cairen's side The palace servants went to the front to inform Tu Mingjun.

As for herself, she chose to stay where she was.

It has to be said that Mo Xiang is indeed much calmer than others, and even at this time, her mind is still clear.

For Tu Mingxuan, the emperor's heir in Jiang Cairen's belly was indeed important, so she asked Wu'er to make a special trip to invite the imperial physician to show Fengzao Palace's sincerity.But for Yuanchun, proving her innocence is also important, so she, as a person sent by Tu Mingjun to Yuanchun, naturally has to stay where she is to prevent Jiang Cairen from doing anything secretly.

As for sending someone to notify Tu Mingjun, it doesn't matter who does it.

Anyway, after Tu Mingjun came, he would definitely listen to what she had to say.
