Comprehensive film and television: Make trouble before lying down
Chapter 17 Zhen Huan 17
After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the queen's injuries were finally healed and she resumed her daily greetings.
At this time, the entire Forbidden City was covered in snow. The snow this year was particularly heavy. It was said that many houses outside the palace were collapsed by the heavy snow. The emperor had been busy with disaster relief.
It was a rare day that she was in a good mood, so Shen Meizhuang strolled around the palace slowly. In such a cold day, she was not afraid of meeting people outside, nor was she afraid of someone setting a trap for her on the road.
The palace roads were filled with palace maids and eunuchs busy sweeping snow, but the snow was so heavy that they only cleared a path through the middle, leaving the snow untouched.
Caixing and Caiyue were beside her, supporting her as she walked steadily. However, in front of the palace road, a sedan chair was coming towards them from the corner.
I could hear the cursing voice from a long distance away. Without a doubt, it must be Yu Ying'er.
Yu Ying'er's brow furrowed into a chasm, and she shouted, "Hurry up, it's freezing cold out here. If you freeze me, I won't forgive you."
In the blink of an eye, they met Shen Meizhuang and the sedan chair stopped.
Yu Ying'er sat in the sedan chair, looking down from above, with no intention of getting out of the sedan chair to greet or to give way.
She raised her hand and gently adjusted her bun, then said slowly, "I promised Yu that I would pay my respects to Concubine Ning. Please make way for me, sister. I am in a hurry to visit the Empress."
She was promoted quite quickly. In just a few days, she was promoted to the next level. And this was with Zhen Huan! She was someone who could lower her dignity and please the emperor.
Shen Meizhuang, Caixing and Caiyue stood in the middle of the road, their steps did not move at all, the smiles on their faces remained unchanged, and they raised their eyes and looked straight at Yu Ying'er.
"I am your concubine. Why am I not worthy of your getting off the sedan chair and paying my respects? I am a concubine, and you are just a concubine."
"You--you" Yu Ying'er's face was distorted with anger. She didn't expect the other party to be so disrespectful to her.
People like Yu Ying'er are villains who will become more aggressive when they succeed. If you take a step back today, she will think that you are afraid of her. If you give in, she will use you to step up.
Seeing that the other party had no intention of giving in, Yu Ying'er put on a smug smile again, "Sister, I'm here to pay my respects to the Empress. If I'm late, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear the consequences."
Shen Meizhuang pressed forward, refusing to yield an inch. "You are late, not me. I am here to pay my respects, not to the Empress. How can I be so incapable of this?"
"You're still not going to salute? Then don't blame me for being so disrespectful!"
Yu Ying'er stiffened her neck and refused to give in. She sat firmly, but her expression became increasingly ugly.
Shen Meizhuang raised her eyes and glanced around, then said to the eunuchs carrying the sedan chair, "I promise not to know the rules and don't know how to salute this palace. So, don't you sedan chair bearers know how to salute this palace too?"
As soon as he finished speaking, several young eunuchs immediately put down the sedan chair and knelt on the ground.
Yu Ying'er was caught off guard by this blow, and the eunuch got out of the sedan chair in such a hurry that she almost fell.
Could she let Yu Ying'er go so easily? Of course not. If she beat her, she would scare her and make her submissive, so that she wouldn't dare to have any delusional thoughts.
Shen Meizhuang looked at her with contempt. Yu Ying'er's expression was like a palette. She opened her mouth, but was helpless.
Shen Meizhuang turned her gaze to the young eunuch and said in a friendly manner, "The snow is cold, and it must be hard for you to carry the sedan chair."
"However, if you fail to pay your respects to me in time, you have broken the rules. If anyone dares to force her to pay her respects to me today, I will not only not hold him responsible for breaking the palace rules, but will also reward him."
Upon hearing this, several young eunuchs immediately looked at each other. They were also fed up with her. Although she was not of high rank, she had a bad temper. They immediately stepped forward and took Yu Ying'er, and then knelt in the snow.
Yu Ying'er's face was full of dissatisfaction, and she was still struggling: "You dog slaves, you really rebelled against me. Later, I will report to the Queen, and I will beat you all with a stick one by one.
Shen Meizhuang slowly took a few steps towards Yu Ying'er. At this time, the positions of the two were completely reversed, and Shen Meizhuang was looking down at the person kneeling on the ground.
Shen Meizhuang taunted her softly, "I am a concubine. Since you agreed, you should bow to me. You must kneel until I call you to. I will teach you the rules today. I hope you will remember them."
"Caiyue, today each of these young eunuchs will be rewarded with five taels of silver."
Several people immediately knelt down and said, "Thank you, Concubine Ning."
Shen Meizhuang knew that one should help others to the end and give them a slap in the face thoroughly. If she just rewarded them with money, who knows how Yu Ying'er would torture them later.
Then he continued, "I am also short of a few people to carry my sedan chair. I wonder if you are willing to follow me."
Several people immediately kowtowed three times: "Slaves are willing, slaves thank the master...Slaves are willing, slaves thank the master." There was a mixture of happiness and excitement in their tone.
After returning, he handed over several people to Xiao Luzi for training. He was more capable than Xiao Fuzi, and it was just right that he needed his own people when he moved the palace in the future.
Ignoring the crowd, Caixing and Caiyue supported Shen Meiyu and continued to walk forward. Several young eunuchs glanced at the sedan chair beside them, then looked at Yu Ying'er, gritted their teeth, ignored them, and followed Shen Meiyu directly.
In the middle of the long palace road, there was a lonely sedan chair and Yu Ying'er kneeling in the snow, no one paid attention to her, while the people around her were all palace maids sweeping the snow to enjoy the show.
Shen Meizhuang was in a very good mood after teaching someone a lesson. "I wonder what Concubine Wan is doing now? Should I go see her? She's bored anyway."
Caiyue said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid I have to disappoint you. Recently, the Empress has been calling Concubine Wan to Jingren Palace to teach her how to assist in managing the six palaces. If you want to see her, I'm afraid you'll have to go to Jingren Palace."
Shen Meizhuang shook her head and decided to give up. The group strolled back to Xianfu Palace.
At this time, Zhen Huan in Jingren Palace was holding a thick account book in her hand, and there were more than ten books piled on the table.
The account books revealed the expenses of purchases in previous years, palace banquets, and other complicated matters, and the so-called teaching by the queen was just asking her to look at the account books every day.
It's okay for one or two days, but after a long time, I can't help but feel dissatisfied, but I can't do anything about it, and I feel very depressed.
Yixiu saw impatience flashing across Zhen Huan's face from time to time, and she wondered if all this time of rubbing had produced any results.
Then he said, "Noble Lady Wan, it's really hard for you to learn these trivial matters in the palace."
Zhen Huan said respectfully, "It is my honor to be able to do something for Her Majesty the Queen. How can I say it is hard work?"
Yi Xiu said, "I heard that when the emperor was first learning to manage the six palaces, he first favored Concubine Ning. However, Concubine Ning was modest and recommended Concubine Wan to the emperor. However, her vision was not wrong. Concubine Wan is indeed capable."
