The queen is crazy and spoiled, and the tyrant bows to her
Chapter 47: Concubine Bai Weiwei
As the night faded, the eastern sky began to turn pale, and a faint glow of light shone through the clouds.
Wang Fuhai stood outside the Taiji Palace, yawning continuously. With a "bang", the palace door opened from the inside, and Wang Fuhai's sleepiness disappeared instantly.
It was Xie Zhiyan who came out in a crimson official robe.
Well, this person stayed in the emperor's bedroom for another night.
Wang Fuhai squinted his eyes and said calmly, "Thank you for your hard work, sir."
Xie Zhiyan looked at him and said with a smile: "No matter how hard it is, it can't compare to Eunuch Wang, who has been guarding for another night."
"Just don't stare at me too much, eunuch. You also need to pay more attention to the expansion of the royal family."
"As a man, I cannot even have a child, so I cannot add offspring to the royal family."
Look, is this human language?
Wang Fuhai looked at his annoying smile, pursed his lips, and couldn't help cursing inwardly: You still know that you can't have children? Why is a rooster that can't lay eggs running here to compete for favor in the middle of the night!
What an eyesore!
Xie Zhiyan saw what Wang Fuhai was thinking at a glance. He put his hand on Wang Fuhai's shoulder, and the smile on his lips became even wider.
He said, "I know that the eunuch is worried about the issue of heirs in the harem..."
"Since we've known each other for many years, I advised His Majesty last night. I think His Majesty will take action soon. You must be prepared."
Wang Fuhai's eyes suddenly lit up: "Master Xie, are you serious?"
Xie Zhiyan smiled: "Of course."
"Also, don't worry, eunuch. The Dali Temple is very busy with official business. I'm afraid you won't be able to see me in Taiji Palace for a long time."
After saying that, Xie Zhiyan patted Wang Fuhai on the shoulder and left with a swagger.
Wang Fuhai watched him leave gracefully, smiled, and whispered, "Thank you, sir, you finally did something for me!"
"Remember, don't come here..."
Wang Fuhai looked up at the morning glow rising in the sky, the smile on his lips never faded. He felt that the clouds today were more gorgeous and dazzling than usual.
Jiang Wantang woke up as soon as the sky was getting light.
Today is the big day for the newlyweds to pay their respects to the emperor in the palace for the first time. Although there is no queen in the harem yet, Concubine Qi is temporarily in charge of the harem. Empress Dowager Qi has been claiming to be ill since the incident in the Qi family and has exempted herself from the routine greetings to all the palaces.
Therefore, all the concubines had to go to Concubine Qi's Chonghua Palace to pay their respects.
On such an important day, the concubines in each palace naturally tried their best to dress themselves up, going out one by one in gorgeous attire, hoping to outshine all the other beauties.
The weather is getting warmer, and Jiang Wantang is wearing a scarlet double-breasted, wide-sleeved chiffon dress today. The fabric of the dress is high-quality brocade, with gold and silver threads interwoven into it. It glistens when she walks, and is elegant and noble.
Yun Shang had her hair combed into a high bun, and pinned a pair of oriental pearl tassel hairpins on each side of the bun. Her face was delicate and bright, her hair was as tall as Mount Wushan, her lips were like peach blossoms, and her cheeks were as red as clouds. She was a beauty with a natural charm.
Jiang Wantang lived the farthest and most remote place. With her current rank of a fourth-rank beauty, she was not yet qualified to use the imperial carriage of concubines. Therefore, when she arrived at Chonghua Palace, there were already many concubines sitting in the palace, seemingly talking and laughing, in a peaceful atmosphere.
Concubine Qi wore a long pink dress embroidered with peony patterns and sat in the center of the uppermost seat, acting as if she regarded herself as the queen.
As soon as Jiang Wantang entered the palace, many concubines glanced over, their eyes filled with surprise, envy, and jealousy...
Everyone had heard that a peerless beauty had emerged in this selection, and His Majesty even gave her flowers in public, which was unprecedented.
When I first heard it, I thought it was just an exaggeration. After all, there was no shortage of beauties in the harem, with all kinds of beauties, and the garden was full of spring scenery.
In the capital, everyone is a beauty.
Seeing the real person this time, she couldn't help but feel surprised, and instantly felt a sense of crisis. The look she gave her was somewhat hostile.
Jiang Wantang allowed them to look at her gracefully. She slowly stepped forward and bowed to greet them. At this time, Concubine Qi was chatting with a palace concubine next to her with her head tilted aside, as if she hadn't seen or heard anything.
Jiang Wantang curled her lips. She knew that Concubine Qi had seen and heard it.
This time he was just deliberately making things difficult for her and giving her a warning.
However, Concubine Qi did not ask her to stand up, so she could only keep bowing.
All the concubines present looked at each other with their eyes on their noses and their noses on their hearts, pretending not to see anything and watching the joke.
Fortunately, Lin Ruoyun came in not long after. She walked to Jiang Wantang's side, bowed and shouted, "This concubine pays her respects to the Imperial Concubine!"
The voice was so loud that the whole hall could hear it.
Now, Concubine Qi couldn't pretend to be deaf anymore, so she smiled and said, "Stand up, we are all sisters, no need to be so polite."
The two of them stood up, walked to an inconspicuous place one after the other, and sat down next to each other.
Afterwards, other concubines gradually arrived one after another.
Concubine Qi did not make things difficult for others. She just went through the motions and explained some of the rules that should be followed in serving the emperor in the palace.
Although she herself had never been to the bed...
It's a bit sad to say this.
The old concubines were already tired of listening to it, so only the new concubines who entered the palace listened attentively.
Jiang Wantang glanced around the hall, but did not see the virtuous concubine that Eunuch Lin had mentioned yesterday.
Just then, there was a loud noise outside.
The eunuch at the door shouted in a shrill voice: "The virtuous concubine has arrived!"
Then, a woman in a long purple dress with hibiscus patterns walked in slowly, supported by a palace maid.
As soon as she came in, everyone's eyes turned to her.
The woman had her hair tied up in a high bun with a few purple gemstone tassel hairpins on it. Her waist was slender, and she had black hair and red lips. She was gentle and dignified. It was the virtuous concubine Bai Weiwei who had arrived late.
Bai Weiwei smiled brightly at Concubine Qi as she entered. "Your Majesty, please don't blame me for not understanding etiquette. It's just that I've caught a cold these past few days, and Your Majesty is sympathetic and has exempted me from all greetings and formalities."
Concubine Qi clenched her fists, but she wore a proper smile on her face: "Your Majesty has always been kind to me, so I should take care of my health. Please take a seat."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Bai said with a slight smile.
After saying that, she walked straight to the lower right of Concubine Qi and sat down.
Compared to the arrogance and domineering Concubine Qi, the favored Bai Weiwei looks very gentle and honest.
Since Concubine Qi could tolerate her like this, it seemed that Ji Wuyuan really treated her differently.
Is it just because there is a bit of the shadow of an old friend between Bai Weiwei's eyebrows and eyes?
