Empress and concubine

The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, but Zhao Yi took the Bo family's space ahead of time and gave it to Chu Yao.At that time Chu Yao just got up and was dressing up when she saw Zhao Yi come in happily.

"You all go down first," Chu Yao waved away the servants, took two silk flowers and gestured on the side of her hair, and then saw Zhao Yi smiling at her movements, but she didn't He lost interest in talking, and threw the silk flowers back into the box, saying, "Why did you come here so early today?"

"Of course there is a happy event, and I want to be the first to share it with you," Zhao Yi smiled, took out a lacquer box from the caged sleeve, put it on the dressing table in front of Chu Yao, and picked it up from Chu Yao's dressing box. Picked out another golden firework flower, but shook his head again, and exchanged another cluster of crabapple for Chu Yao to put in her hair, and then continued, "At first, I thought this was a great happy event, but once I came here, Seeing you, Fang suddenly realized..."

"Oh, what did you realize, my lady? Let's talk about it too," Chu Yao asked with a smile as she stroked the begonia gently.

"Even if there is a big happy event, it would be even more joyful not to have a silk flower on your temple." Zhao Yi said it clearly to make Chu Yao happy, but it seemed that all the happy events in the world were piled up , can't surpass Chu Yao's gesture of frowning and smiling.

Chu Yao immediately blushed when she heard the words, as if she had eaten honey, but she didn't answer Zhao Yi's words, and only focused on the lacquer box on the table, "This is what you said earlier. happy event?"

Zhao Yi licked his lips. Seeing that Chu Yao didn't answer, he felt a little regretful, and quickly threw it away, "This is the so-called space of the Bo family," and changed his look of disdain for a while, "However .”

When Zhao Yi said this, Chu Yao didn't have the intention to open it, but she was a little strange, "You wanted to keep her for a while before, why did you take it so quickly when the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching? That Mrs. Bo is also very smart, in this palace, except for Xia Yunjing, you and I are the only ones in this palace who can do things without anyone noticing."

"Because she is smart," Zhao Yi sneered, and then said meaningfully, "You will soon be promoted to a noble concubine, but Princess Qingjue will come here with a letter of credence. From the harem. You met her in your father's house before, so you can't guarantee that she will trouble you. Now Mrs. Bo has no space to make a public statement, and the only way to choose is to climb up. You say, If I lift her up, she might fight Princess Qingjue?"

"Princess Qingjue is coming?" Chu Yao was a little stunned, "The days go by really fast. In a blink of an eye, the stage is set up and everyone is here."

"Isn't there an old saying, 'After you sing, I'll come on stage', I don't like to be that singer, but I'm already on the stage, and I can't get away," said Zhao Yi, feeling a little out of sorts today , but probably because of Chu Yao's presence, he restrained himself quickly, "It's better to end it earlier."

"No wonder you acted so quickly," Chu Yao was a little worried, but seeing that Zhao Yi didn't show anything, she had no choice but to hold back. Zhao Yi doesn't like others to enlighten her, the more enlightened, the better she will go. Go inside the dead end.Chu Yao guessed that Zhao Mo was stimulated by something when he took the things, which brought back some bad memories, and when he came over and talked about it, he suddenly remembered it again.Although it made people feel uncomfortable, it was justified to have such an experience.

Thinking this way in her heart, Chu Yao didn't try to persuade her, so she just said, "Ms. Bo likes to plan ahead, even if she has no space, she has gained a lot of benefits now, but her planning is more important now. It's just empty talk, far from reaching the level of talking and laughing in the future. Princess Qingjue was tempered in the palace since she was a child. You can know that she has lived safely until now and is still living recklessly. , she is very capable. So now, compared to Princess Qingjue, Bo's is still a little less popular."

"It's okay," Zhao Yi looked at the box, with a hesitant expression on his face, "I'll put this thing here with you first, and I have plans for the other things, so I'm not in a hurry for the time being," he said for a while, "Ruo Bo If Shi finds it, you just give this box to her."

Chu Yao was a little puzzled when she heard this, but out of trust in Zhao Yi, she didn't ask any more questions. She nodded and put the lacquer box under the dressing table. She only waited for the two Hong Zhus to arrive before looking for another one. The place is put away.But listening to Zhao Yi's intentions, Mrs. Bo will come over in the next moment.

Zhao Yi saw Chu Yao's movements and didn't tell her to be careful. She only waited for her to tidy up before saying, "This thing shouldn't exist in the world. I destroyed it when I got it. Mrs. Bo never saw it." Seeing it as it is, you just think that I got a precious orb and give it to you."

When Zhao Yi left, Chu Yao half leaned on the leading pillow, watching Huaying beat her legs with a beauty hammer, but was thinking about what to do next, and then thought of her performance just now, and let out a long breath.

"Your Majesty, Mrs. Bo is asking to see you," Hong Zhu came in and asked, "Do you want to send her away?"

Chu Yao shook her head and said, "Come in."

After hearing Chu Yao's words, Hongzhu was about to go out to pass on a message, so she saw Mrs. Bo and came in. "The people in Palace Bo are so courageous. They broke in without being summoned," and looked around the palace for a while. People, annoyed, "Could it be that they are all made of wooden piles? Even a palace official who has no rank can come in at will. If assassins come, can you count on you?"

A group of servants and servants heard the words and hurriedly knelt down to plead guilty. There were still a few people who secretly took a look at Mr. Bo, and they were recorded one by one by Hong Zhu in secret. They were sent out only after Mrs. Bo left, and they would not be used any more. .

"Sister Hongzhu, don't blame them." Bo's face was a little embarrassed, "It's because my sister didn't pay attention when she went out, and accidentally wore the jade card given by the empress dowager. With the jade card, they also... …My younger sister just found out, and now it’s been put away.”

Hongzhu raised her eyebrows when she heard this, "Sister really deserves to be picked up from outside the palace by the empress dowager. She was punished by the palace rules, but now she can't remember it. No wonder they dare not stop you. Not everyone can block the empress dowager's sign."

Hongzhu's words are really a bit yin and yang, but it is indeed Bo's fault, or Bo's doing it on purpose...

Chu Yaoqian took a sip of tea, wiped away the water stains that did not exist on the corners of her mouth with a brocade handkerchief, made a gesture, and then said, "Hong Zhu, since it is the brand of the Empress Dowager, why don't you call her over quickly, if you delay I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you."

"Your Majesty is right. It's because Hongzhu is dull. Because of emotion and reason, I should ask Bogong people to come to see you first." Hongzhu smiled lightly and turned to the side. Go in, are you still going?"

Mrs. Bo lowered her head and said, "Thank you sister Hongzhu."

"But it shouldn't," Hongzhu said, "We are in the palace, and forming cliques is the most taboo thing. I don't have much respect for Mrs. Jinlan's sisters. It's better for people in Bo Palace not to talk about relatives indiscriminately. If there is a taboo, there are a hundred mouths, and none of them can say clearly."

Mrs. Bo had already walked in front of Chu Yao at that time, so she just pretended she didn't hear Hong Zhu's words. Fortunately, Hong Zhu didn't care, she just wanted to have a good time, but the servants in this room should be beaten and beaten. The last batch.

When Mrs. Bo saw Chu Yao, her eyes were full of anxiety. As soon as she saw Chu Yao, she kowtowed and saluted, "Your maidservant Mrs. Bo has seen Concubine Shu, and she is well."

"Bogong people are so generous, but this palace is a little caught off guard, Huaying, hurry up and help Bogong people up, if the empress dowager knows that we treat Bogong people so harshly, it will be another quarrel." Chu Yao This was said slowly and very elegantly.But it was quite different from her previous image. Chu Yao used to have a good reputation, but she had never heard of her saying such harsh words to anyone.

Seeing Hua Ying coming over as she said, Mrs. Bo resigned quickly, and fell on the ground, "I also ask the mother to stand back, and the servant has something important to tell."

"Important matter?" Chu Yao looked around, and Fang said to Huaying, "Go and tell your elder sister Hongzhu, ask her to lead the person to see if the saint has come down, if he has, So I invited the sage to come over, and said that the people of Bo Palace have something important to say, and I am afraid that it will be related to the Empress Dowager, the palace dare not be good at it, so I invite the sage to come over once if he is troubled."

Chu Yao made such an inappropriate gesture, but there was nothing much to hinder it. After all, if what Bo said was really related to the Queen Mother, it would be wrong for Chu Yao to handle it by herself, just like the one who is not a direct descendant. Prince, if you want to be a prince, you will always have a bad reputation. Now that you handle it like this, it will be passed on.

Seeing Chu Yao's actions like this, Mrs. Bo's face was overjoyed, and then turned into a worried expression in an instant, but Chu Yao just noticed it.

Chu Yao waved her hand and asked Huaying to tell Hongzhu, but she didn't speak, and she didn't ask Bo to get up. When Huaying came back, Bo's face gradually turned pale, and Chu Yao said, "You can do it with me. Raft, you want to climb up by stepping on this palace, don’t you?”

A trace of shock flashed across Bo's face, and he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I have learned from you, this servant has never thought about it this way." With red eyes, he braced himself and put on a strong posture, quite a bit like I saw. pity.

Chu Yao waved her hand, "I am the most impatient to watch people play tricks. Right and wrong are black and white. It is the right thing for you to show it upright and let me know. Princess Qingjue is coming, and she will probably enter the palace too. One concubine is too many, and one more concubine is too many, it's just you, what do you think."

Chu Yao spoke meaningfully, but she told Mrs. Bo the news that Princess Qingjue was coming to the Great Xia and was likely to enter the palace.

For Mrs. Bo, this is the opportunity she has been waiting for for a long time. Even if she is an existence that makes Princess Qingjue feel uncomfortable, even if it is very likely that Princess Qingjue will be the first to confront her, after all, she The most fundamental change has already taken place, and the goal of struggle is already visible. Naturally, Mrs. Bo will not give up this opportunity. Who knows who will help her next time if she misses this time.

"Mister Bo is willing to share the worries for your empress," Mrs. Bo bowed to Chu Yao again, and then she stopped pretending, and said, "This servant only thinks that your mother and the queen are better friends, but I don't think it's just that they have their own ideas. After a good lesson, there really are no permanent friends in this harem..."
