Various small brain holes in comprehensive film and television

Maybe it's because the plot has not officially begun yet, or maybe it's because there are too few concubines in the harem now. In short, the harem as a whole has been very peaceful in recent years.

The queen holds great power, enjoys the emperor's favor, sits high on the cloud platform, and looks down on everyone. As expected, power is the best tonic, a great tonic. With power and favor, Yixiu is full of confidence and behaves in a somewhat generous manner.

Concubine Nian was equal to the other concubines and was not on good terms with them. They often quarreled, but because the Empress had real power and the Emperor had dealt many blows to Concubine Nian in recent years, their quarrels were just minor.

Concubine Qi is still as stupid as ever, and keeps saying "Third Prince has grown taller again" every day.

Jingpin was worthy of being nicknamed "Brick Concubine". She kept her distance from all the troubles in the harem, kept herself out of trouble and never got involved.

In the palace, Cao Qinmo lived in the same courtyard as Nian Shilan. After being promoted to concubine, she became the head of a palace, so she would no longer live in the same palace with Nian Shilan. Wen Yi was also kept by her side. Although she was still a lackey of Concubine Nian, she was not as vicious as in the drama.

In short, it can be said that everything is quiet and good.

But those who are dissatisfied are dissatisfied with everything and want to break this peace with resentment. Since I am not having a good life, no one else can have a good life.

When Yixiu went to Shoukang Palace to keep the appointment, it was almost time for lunch.

After all, they both knew that the lunch appointment was just an excuse, and it was still unknown whether the Queen Mother would have an appetite to eat after she finished her business.

It’s better to go later and have a good meal first before talking.

When Yixiu arrived, the Queen Mother smashed a teacup. She never expected that Yixiu would be so arrogant and dare to come so late. Since both of them knew it was an excuse, they should have come earlier to discuss.

"Your servant pays homage to the Queen Mother," Yixiu, wearing a red Manchu dress, bowed gracefully.

This touch of red hurt the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother did not call out, but picked up the newly served tea and sipped it slowly.

After taking a sip, he put the teacup down heavily, "Humph, the Queen is now in charge of the six palaces, so I guess she is very busy. I wonder how she has time to come to my Shoukang Palace?"

I’m busy, but wasn’t this the dinner you scheduled first?

Yixiu replied respectfully, "I dare not. As a son, it is my duty to respect my parents."

Although I was already impatient, I still had to do the work of saving face and say the nice things that should be said.

The Queen Mother was satisfied. She said, "Don't think you are so high and mighty just because you are favored. Without her, how can Yixiu be the Queen? Now she dares to stand up straight."

"Oh, I forgot that the Queen hasn't gotten up yet. I'm really old. Zhuxi, don't you know how to remind her?" the Queen Mother sighed in a pretentious manner.

Zhu Xi quickly knelt down and begged for mercy, "I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong."

"It's okay for me," haha, Yixiu sneered in her heart. She was the queen, the mother of the Qing Dynasty, and the emperor's only wife, and the queen mother dared to humiliate her like this.

It was lunchtime, and Chunmao (a maidservant accompanying the Queen Mother) came to ask if the meal should be served.

"Go ahead," the Queen Mother happened to be hungry as well.

Yixiu: What a coincidence, I’m hungry too.

When the two of them went to eat, the Queen Mother suddenly asked, "I heard that the Emperor likes the duck soup you made very much?"

The male college students really liked it, no wonder Fatty Orange drank three bowls and wanted more.

Yixiu smiled shyly. She was very proud that the emperor liked her cooking so much. "Your Majesty, you are joking. It's just a small gift from me to Your Majesty."

"The Emperor and Empress are deeply in love, very good." The Queen Mother praised with a smile, and continued to ask: "I heard that this duck soup needs several kinds of mushrooms to be so delicious? I don't know if it's true or not. It's a good opportunity for Zhuxi to learn and let me have a taste."

"My Queen Mother, this duck soup does use a lot of mushrooms, including bamboo fungus, velvet antler mushroom, jujube, wormwood flower, Agaricus blazei, morel, chanterelle, tea tree mushroom, etc." Yixiu wiped her mouth calmly, and the Queen Mother was about to get to the point.

Sure enough, after hearing this, the Queen Mother sighed in a similar manner, "This duck soup needs so many mushrooms to serve as a foil, and so does this person."

Yixiu understood that the Empress Dowager was looking at the almanac on the night of the 30th and knew that there was no time left.

"I wonder if the Empress Dowager has any advice for you?"

"I dare not give you any advice. I am old and just want to be surrounded by my children and grandchildren and enjoy the happiness of family life." The Queen Mother's meaning was obvious. It was time for the Emperor to hold a selection of concubines.
