Chapter 23 The Favored Concubine in the Palace
"Hey, did you hear? An agreed to enter the palace for so long and finally had the chance to sleep with the emperor, but was sent back yesterday."
A young palace maid dressed in light pink was holding flowers and discussing with a palace maid dressed in light green.
"There are many favored people in this palace, but this one is the real one who has fallen out of favor."
"Sister, who do you think is the most favored in the palace? We in the garden don't know much about them, and we don't know how to treat these nobles.
If we serve these young ladies well, perhaps we can even enter the palace."
Hongli, who was bending over to write on a short, paint-chipped desk, listened attentively.
He was wearing a piece of clothing that was neither new nor old, and was writing on a table that was several inches lower. However, there were many ancient books on the shelves.
The nanny sent by the Empress Dowager, Wuya Chengbi, scolded, "Oh, Fourth Prince, why aren't you studying seriously? Instead of listening to these two little palace maids gossiping?"
Hongli immediately lowered his head and copied Liu Gongquan's calligraphy.
But in her heart she was thinking: "I am in this Old Summer Palace. No matter how hard I study, the Emperor will never see me. If only a concubine could adopt me and take me out, how wonderful it would be!"
"I think it should be Noble Lady Wan. I heard that she was made a Noble Lady after serving the emperor in bed. She's the one the emperor visits the most."
"I don't think that's the case. It should be Concubine Xuan. Concubine Xuan had a leg injury, and the Emperor was worried about her, so she was the first one to decide to go to the Old Summer Palace.
The best place was arranged for her. The Red Lotus Waterside Pavilion is close to the Emperor and the Imperial Physician's Office. Even Concubine Duan cannot live there."
"So what?" The palace maid in pink was a little unconvinced.
"The Emperor treated her so well, and we were all impressed. She was very polite and courteous, and often gave snacks to us, the young palace maids.
Unlike Concubine Shen, who was just a Concubine but moved everything in the palace into our garden.
The monthly meal allowance has been cut in half, and even the mung bean soup has been converted into cash. How can people like us use it?"
This time the pink-dressed palace maid was convinced.
"That's true. After all, the Queen and Concubine Hua often send good things to Concubine Xuan."
Hongli wrote silently, but remembered the words of the two palace maids.
I stared at my ill-fitting bra and shoes that were one size too small, and felt the blisters on the soles of my feet.
I heard the young palace maids talking again. They said, "Princess Wen Yi is now one year old. Everyone is celebrating her birthday. Even Prince Guo and the others are here."
Hongli, who was about to go to school, felt bitter. His sister was born among the stars, but he himself was ignored by his father.
Because his mother was an ugly palace maid who climbed onto the dragon bed.
Hongli made up his mind.
Although Liu Hua was very worried about An Lingrong, after sleeping with her for a night.
Early the next morning, Yinzhen called Liu Hua into his bedroom. Yinzhen held Liu Hua's hand and ate a bowl of rice.
He spoke earnestly, with a fatherly air, and said, "You must know a person's face as well as his heart. Don't make random friends in the palace."
Liu Hua thought of the famous scene where An Lingrong was rejected yesterday, and felt bitter in his heart.
Maybe it's because she is sensitive and inferior, but being with An Lingrong has changed a lot, and she has mastered many techniques that can only be used in later stages.
The incense she burned in her house, the cakes and fruit wine she ate every day, and even the handkerchiefs she used were all made by her own hands.
Liu Hua once told An Lingrong, "Don't do such things, it's a waste of time."
An Lingrong always smiled and said, "I'm not favored, so who else can I be good to besides my sister?"
Liu Hua slept too soundly that night, and thus ignored her whisper in her dream yesterday: "Lingrong only wants to be with her sister."
Liu Hua escaped again and again in his heart, and was somewhat afraid of his own modern knowledge and experience.
But she also felt that such a situation would be impossible in ancient times.
Yinzhen looked at Liu Hua with disbelief and felt very disappointed with him.
Just as he was about to say the rest of the sentence, Su Peisheng bowed and reported: "Your Majesty, the Fourth Prince is kneeling outside and asking to see you."
Yinzhen's face was gloomy and he was extremely dissatisfied. When he was still a prince, he got drunk because the palace maid looked like Chunyuan from behind.
That's why he let her go to bed with him, and she later gave birth to the Fourth Prince. Fortunately, the palace maid died, otherwise he would have beaten her to death.
Waving his hands irritably, he said, "Tell the Fourth Prince to go back and study hard, and don't show up in front of me."
Seeing Yinzhen's gloomy face, she said tactfully, "Your Majesty, I will take my leave first."
Yinzhen was touched by the dark side of his heart, and at this moment he no longer cared about being affectionate with Liu Hua, and nodded directly.
As soon as Liu Hua went out, he saw a boy of about eleven or twelve years old kneeling in the middle of the room. His clothes were half-new and half-worn, and he looked rather pitiful.
He looked up and suddenly saw Liu Hua, and was extremely shocked. Jiuzhou Qingyan was the emperor's office, and concubines were generally not allowed to enter and leave at will.
Hongli sighed in his heart: "She can come and go, it seems that she is really favored. If my mother..."
As for why Liu Hua could be accurately identified, it was because it was rumored in the palace that Concubine Xuan did not like gold jewelry, but only loved velvet flowers and jade ornaments.
She also likes to wear various exquisite jade bracelets with hollow carvings on her hands.
What's more, among all the concubines, except for Concubine Hua, Concubine Xuan is the tallest and very easy to recognize.
Concubine Hua is as passionate as a camellia in full bloom. The camellia would rather fall whole flowers than scatter piece by piece.
When Liu Hua is silent, she is cold and pure, like the snow lotus of Tianshan Mountain. When she speaks, she is sunny and cheerful, like a snow-white daisy.
The Summer Palace is picturesque in summer, and Liu Hua is walking on the lush stone path.
I was very moved when I saw the ancient buildings that would be burned down by the British and French forces. At this moment, a boy suddenly fell from the side.
Dongli and Caiju protected Liu Hua while one of them was about to step forward to ask questions.
Liu Hua hurried forward and asked, "Fourth Prince, why are you here?"
Hongli said pitifully, "My leg was injured. Madam, I am the Fourth Prince Hongli."
Liu Hua understood in his heart, but was also surprised. Shouldn't the Fourth Prince want to meet Zhen Huan?
The Queen gave Zhen Huan the osmanthus tree, saying that she wanted to add a touch of nobility, which would just match his mother, Li Jingui.
Li Jingui was born a palace maid and was not very noble. Even though she was the biological mother of the prince, she did not become a concubine.
The Queen may not have meant these things, but in the drama this is fate.
Liu Hua then thought, the Fourth Prince showed his kindness to her today, so what should Zhen Huan do?
Seeing that Liu Hua was silent for a long time, Hongli thought that she was like others, despising his background, so he asked cautiously: "Does Empress Xuan not like me?"
Liu Hua was more cautious because he was not in the palace.
She immediately corrected him, "I am just a noble lady, not a queen."
Liu Hua didn't want to make the same low-level mistake as Zhen Huan, who was clearly just a noble lady but often called herself a concubine.
Hongli thought to himself: "This Concubine Xuan is a man of the rules."
Liu Hua, because he was the future emperor and did not want to make enemies, helped him up personally, and then ordered: "Go to the imperial physician's office and find an imperial physician to examine the prince.
These clothes and shoes are also old. Go get some new brocade and report to the Empress to assign good eunuchs and maids to the prince.
Hongli was very excited. He had only met Liu Hua once and didn't expect to get so many benefits. He immediately hugged Liu Hua.
She said coquettishly, "Thank you, Liu E'niang. Liu E'niang is the most beautiful and kind-hearted person."
Liu Hua covered his forehead, feeling a little embarrassed.
Just then, Zhen Huan and Huanbi came from the front, and Zhen Huan picked up a few lotus flowers.
Compared with her fair face, Liu Hua thought that even the pink lotus would be shy.
Zhen Huan was wearing a light pink cheongsam and a pink jade crystal on her head, which made her look delicate and charming, but also added a bit of maturity.
Zhen Huan was also very shocked when she saw Liu Hua holding a child and asked, "What's going on?"
