The imperial concubine is charming and charming, and only seeks power and wealth
Chapter 81 Imperial Concubine: Knowing the Meaning
The next day.
It was no secret that His Majesty the Emperor visited Ning'an Palace but left overnight. The news spread throughout the harem overnight.
It was unknown what the concubines in each palace were thinking, but no one in Ning'an Palace, from top to bottom, seemed to be in a state of panic.
It’s really because their master has been too favored recently.
He was so favored that even the lowest servant would walk out with his back straight, and would have more face wherever he went.
The servants serving outside the palace were so confident, let alone the personal maids who had witnessed with their own eyes how their masters got along with each other.
Especially Jin Yu and Jin Shu, who did not show any sign of anxiety on their faces. Seeing that Madam Qian was unable to hide her anxiety, they smiled and comforted her, "Don't worry, Madam. Our Queen knows what's going on."
They did have good intentions, but all they got in return was a stiff smile from Aunt Qian.
In the sleeping hall.
Since the Emperor was away and Jiang Lingyue didn't have to go to the morning review at Shaoguang Palace, she slept until she woke up naturally and felt relaxed both physically and mentally.
She was the only concubine living in the entire Ning'an Palace. When the emperor was away, she was the only master and did not need to worry about other people's opinions.
Therefore, she stayed in bed with peace of mind until noon, then slowly sat up.
After being helped to dress up, Shi Shiran sat down at the dining table and had breakfast and lunch together.
That's a very contented feeling.
Anyone could see that the emperor's departure had no effect on her at all.
...If there was, it would have made her feel better.
It's really off the mark.
Nanny Qian, an old woman who had lived through two dynasties, was a little dazed for a moment.
The new emperor's harem is indeed different from that of the previous emperor.
The late emperor's harem was flourishing, with many women in it, from the queen to the four concubines, nine imperial concubines, and twenty-seven ladies, there were rarely any vacant positions.
But these are actually not many, they are just the most basic harem configuration of a generation of emperors.
Among these concubines, some are well-behaved and lovely, some are charming and smart, some are gentle and virtuous, and some are as cold as the moon.
Without exception, they are all top beauties.
But there is only one emperor, and his grace and favor are limited.
If you are as calm as a chrysanthemum and don't fight or compete, then others will come to fight for you.
The grace you fight for is yours.
Only with favor can one gain a foothold in this palace, have offspring, and survive the towering palace walls.
Nanny Qian had witnessed the harem infighting during the previous emperor's reign, and had also seen a favored concubine who was so arrogant today become a resentful woman in the deep palace and be forgotten tomorrow.
The old ones are replaced by the new ones, and in order to avoid being replaced by the new ones, the concubines use all kinds of means to win favor. This is the norm in the harem.
When it comes to His Majesty, everything has changed.
When he was still the crown prince, the women in the Eastern Palace could be counted at a glance. Most of them were given by the previous emperor, and a few were daughters of the Eastern Palace's officials.
Those beauties entered the backyard of the East Palace one by one, but they were like a drop in the ocean. His Majesty the Emperor, who was the Crown Prince, had just experienced love for the first time and had no intention of indulging in women.
Still dignified and self-possessed, still aloof and indifferent.
Later, the previous emperor passed away. The new emperor was in his twenties, the age of youthful vigor, but he observed mourning for three years and never set foot in the harem.
The word "filial piety" is so important that even if the civil and military officials in the court have some complaints in their hearts, they dare not say a word.
Everyone can see that His Majesty the Emperor has little interest in women.
Even the general election was only approved after repeated petitions from the ministers.
It was the first time that the harem was filled with concubines. Logically, at least thirty or fifty people should have been chosen, but their Majesty did not even show his face. He just made selections based on the portraits. All in all, the number of beauties selected into the palace could be counted on two hands.
Chen Jieyushi was not selected by the emperor himself to enter the palace. The election on that day was presided over by the three concubines.
Since the emperor was unable to attend in person, the three concubines naturally did not take it seriously and pointed to a few of them at random, including the current Concubine Chen.
I chose a powerful enemy to enter the palace. I don’t know if I am regretting it now.
And this Concubine Chen is even more of a strange person.
She was pampered as soon as she entered the palace, but she was indifferent to everything.
The same is true even for the emperor.
When she first came to serve in Ning'an Palace, Nanny Qian thought that this was a tactic of playing hard to get. After all, a girl who could win the favor of their cold-hearted emperor could not be an ordinary person.
Being hot and cold, and being gentle and considerate all the time, this is also one of the ways to seduce a man. Perhaps His Majesty the Emperor will fall for it.
But now she doesn't think so.
This master is not playing hard to get, she clearly really wants to let him go and has no intention of competing for favor.
However, she did not need to fight for her favor, as the emperor offered it to her on his own initiative.
However, she was still unhappy because His Majesty came more often.
He tries to drive people away again and again.
After she was no longer angry, she felt relieved and at ease.
His Majesty is very fond of her and has never treated her badly.
Having a master like this who is capable of making his own plans should save you a lot of worries.
But Nanny Qian felt very sad because she was the emperor's person.
Every time Eunuch Liu saw her, he would tell her to find opportunities to praise the Empress as much as possible.
It is imperative to make the Concubine fall in love with Your Majesty.
The masters and servants were in perfect harmony and their lives were naturally easier.
However, this mistress refused to listen!
Nanny Qian sighed in her heart and a look of worry appeared on her face.
Jiang Lingyue glanced at it inadvertently and frowned immediately, "Madam, is there anything difficult?"
"..." Madam Qian was silent for a moment, then slowly shook her head and said with difficulty, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am doing very well."
Every time she had a disagreement with the emperor, Nanny Qian was the most worried.
Jiang Lingyue still had something she didn't understand, and she felt helpless.
This was the emperor's man, she had guessed it long ago.
As for why the emperor arranged a nanny to be by her side, there were only a few reasons.
Now that the person has come, there is no reason for her to abandon him.
She used it, the emperor was relieved, and she didn't have to worry about anything else.
But...looking at his sad face, it really affects my mood.
Jiang Lingyue waved her hand and said, "You can leave now."
Nanny Qian bowed and agreed, then retreated.
After Jiang Lingyue finished her meal, she practiced calligraphy for a while. When her wrist felt sore, she put down her pen, rubbed her wrist, and went to the backyard.
Two days ago, Dexi and his friends built a swing in the backyard.
