Chapter 198 Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace, Gao Suiyue (63)
"I thanked the empress."
"Okay, don't show off in front of me, go to the side hall to take care of the sixth elder brother Let’s go.”
“Yes, old slave, resign!”
Su Peisheng quickly retreated.
The concubines have just entered the palace today and they all need to pack their things.
Also make arrangements for the good children.
The queen sent an order to the concubines to come to Changchun Palace in three days to pay their respects.
The deputy eunuch of Yikun Palace is named Xiao Xiazi.
You are not young either.
He is in his thirties and is an old acquaintance in the palace.
It is most appropriate for him to take care of Yikun Palace.
Three days passed in a blink of an eye.
Li Siqi was dug out of the bed by Xingxuan and Mo Xin early in the morning.
After dressing up.
I ate a few more pastries to pad my stomach.
Go out of the main hall and get on the sedan chair to go to Changchun Palace.
It is not too early for Li Siqi to show up at this time.
The concubines are all here.
As soon as she appeared, everyone stood up to greet her.
Even Ruyi, who was reluctant, also stood up.
"I have seen the imperial concubine."
The girls saluted and said, "Long blessings to the imperial concubine."
"Everyone, get up."
< br>Li Siqi gave the instructions casually, walked to her place and sat down.
Other women also took their seats.
The people sitting on her side are still Chen Wanyin and Hailan.
The people on Ruyi’s side are Su Lujun and Huang Qiying.
In the past, Ruyi sat on the left side and they sat on the right side.
Now that Li Qi is one level higher than her, their positions have been reversed.
This is also the reason why Ruyi's face looks ugly.
Everyone saw this and no one paid attention to her.
They just chatted a few words.
Queen Fucha Langya appeared.
“I have met the Queen.”
The girls stood up again and saluted, "May the Queen be blessed!"
"Sisters, please rise."
Fucha Langya had a cheerful smile on her face, and she was obviously in a good mood.
Seeing that everyone was sitting down, he asked again, "Sisters and children, are you used to it?"
"Thank you, Queen, for your concern."
Ruyi was the first to respond, "I and Princess are fine."
"It's good that everyone is fine."
Fucha Langhua smiled and nodded, looking over the flowery crowd. Jade’s concubines.
A coldness flashed in her eyes.
Smiled silently and said: "All the sisters are here, I just have two things to tell you."
As soon as these words came out.
No one answered.
After all, no one knows what the Queen is up to.
Huang Qiying quickly took over the topic: "Queen, please tell me."
"The first thing..."
Fucha Langya looked at her with satisfaction.
The tone of his speech remained unchanged, and he still looked gentle and virtuous, "I am going to save the cost of the harem.
My sisters, please be careful in the future and don't live a gorgeous and extravagant life.
Use more velvet jewelry and silver jewelry.
I also have some cotton fabrics here, which are durable and comfortable.
After a while.
Sisters, take them back to make clothes. ”
As soon as these words came out.
Everyone fell silent.
Except Li Siqi, no one knew what game the Queen was playing.
"Sisters!"
Fucha Langhua's face was a little ugly, "I also think about our sisters.
If there is a reputation in the harem for the concubines' pampering and extravagance, wouldn't it be wrong? That’s great.”< br>
"Yes."
Qingying's eyes fell on Li Siqi, and she said with a smile: "There is something wrong with Concubine Wen Hui wearing gold and silver and looking like a flower. Ah.”
"Concubine Xian has the words to talk about others, but she has no words to talk about herself." Li Siqi sneered, "Let's take a look at your own dress first. You don't look like you are surrounded by pearls and emerald green.
Do you think I’m easier to bully and are you going to take advantage of me?”
When everyone heard her words, their eyes couldn’t help but fall on Ruyi.
Golden silk, jadeite, twisted beads, title beads, agate, jade, red coral...
All these things are hung on the head, and it really fulfills that sentence. It is surrounded by pearls and green, luxurious and rich.
I really have no right to criticize others.
"The imperial concubine is laughing."
Ruyi looked a little embarrassed and regretted that she spoke too quickly just now.
Today, in order to show her that she is the master of the concubine, she dressed up as well as Gao Xiyue, the noble concubine.
"Hmph!"
Li Siqi snorted softly and smiled faintly at Fucha Langhua, "Empress, may I ask a question?"
"Sister Xiyue said. It doesn’t matter.”
Fucha Langhua’s expression remained unchanged, but her fingers tightened a little.
“Our Qing Dynasty is not new to the country, it has also experienced several dynasties and generations.”
Li Siqi's smile was a little weird, "After all, this small country is called the Qing Dynasty.
Is our Ministry of Internal Affairs so poor?
The emperor's concubines can't afford it?
And there are not many of us, only about ten people.
How many servants are there in the entire Ministry of Internal Affairs and the palace?
He can afford to support hundreds of slaves.
We, the ten concubines, cut down on clothing and food to save money for the emperor.
If the concubines in the palace are not as well dressed as the nuns around Fujin in the clan.
The Queen is sure this is a good thing for the ‘Guangzong Yaozong’? "
"Sister Xiyue, you can't say that. ”
Fucha Langya's face turned red and white, and she argued forcefully, "As the emperor's women and concubines in the harem, there is nothing wrong with being frugal.
They all say that diligence and frugality are virtues.
< br>Do we promote virtue? Is it wrong?”
“That’s right.”
Li Siqi nodded, “Since the Queen thinks so, we are not the only ones who should be frugal.
The entire Qing Dynasty should be like this.
I would like to trouble the queen to issue a decree. From the clan to the ministers and their wives, everyone should implement the virtues advocated by the queen.
Everyone should implement it in order to reflect your virtuous character, the Queen.
Empress, what do you think? ”
“……”
Fucha Langya was stunned.
It’s also completely numb.
She can't say that Gao Xiyue is wrong.
And she wants the concubines to save because she only wants to target the harem concubines.
Instead of really wanting the entire Qing Dynasty to follow the example.
She couldn't say what she meant.
Naturally unable to respond verbally.
The other women did not speak up.
But no one is a fool, and naturally he can see what the queen has in mind.
At this moment, not even Huang Qiying can speak for the Queen.
Can only remain silent.
“The Emperor has arrived!”
This voice broke the silence.
Everyone looked back.
Hongli came at the pace of dragon and tiger.
The emperor's clothes added a lot of charm to him.
All the women stood up smiling.
Salute to him and say: "Greetings to the Emperor, may the Emperor be blessed with peace and prosperity."
"No courtesy!"
Hongli waved his hand and motioned for the girls to get up.
He stepped forward and gave the queen a virtual support, which was considered as giving the queen face.
Sure enough, Fucha Langya’s sitting posture looks more dignified.
“What were you talking about just now?”
Hongli glanced at the girls and said, “It seems that everyone is used to it.”
“Back to the emperor, I, my concubines and others All good.”
Ruyi showed a gentle smile, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."
"Yes!"
Hongli responded lightly.
Looked at Li Siqi and asked with a smile, "Xi Yue, what did you just say?
Tell it to me."
