Chapter 347 The upcoming birthday of the Empress Dowager
Concubine Hesheli’s statement will undoubtedly put the other concubines on fire. Concubine Hesheli is so loyal, maybe they are all rotten wood.
The crime of disrespecting the queen fell on his head, and even ten heads could not be kept on his neck.
Rules, habit can kill people.
It can also kill people invisible. Qin Rou was really not interested in serving the Queen. She stood with her feet on the bottom of a flower pot every day, taking stock of the morning and dusk. The situation when she met Concubine Bila, she had to stand for many hours at a time, which was what she should have done. , He should blame himself for his bad luck!
It's already exhausting enough. Qinrou never wanted to add more workload to her body. After all, her inner soul was different and she couldn't get used to exploitation and oppression.
For souls growing in the free world, long ropes will bring fatal suffocation.
Qin Rou seriously wanted to sigh again, someone else increased the workload. However, she really had to take a stand.
"Concubine Niu Hulu has arrived!" After the arrival of all the concubines in the harem, Concubine Niu Hulu finally arrived.
"Concubine Niu Hulu." The concubines turned around to greet the only noble Concubine Niu Hulu in the harem.
Niu Hulu looked dignified, walked among the concubines, and then sat down on the distinguished seat on the left side of the Queen's Lower Shuli. He did not forget to tell the concubines, "Everyone, get up!"
" Thank you for your grace." The concubines thanked me and stood up again. After Concubine Niu Hulu shouted, she stopped talking. The maid from Kunning Palace served tea.
Although Concubine Niu Hulu talked little, she never ran out of tea in the morning and dusk.
After taking the tea, Concubine Niu Hulu waited with peace of mind. The emperor stayed at Kunning Palace yesterday. She knew the queen and her temperament. The Queen is virtuous, considerate, tolerant, and generous. She serves the Emperor with all her heart, and rarely takes advantage of others.
Whenever the emperor stayed overnight, the queen would stay a little later. It was already an unspoken rule that she knew very well. It was for this reason that Concubine Niu Hulu was extremely patient and waited wholeheartedly for the Queen to come out.
In the main hall of Kunning Palace, everyone knew his identity and did not dare to act arrogantly here, let alone speak loudly.
The concubines in the harem were all waiting patiently, as if they could feel the sounds and figures flowing slightly in the long river of silence, like stagnant water, under the influence of the gentle wind.
After a long time, the queen came gracefully wearing a bright yellow phoenix robe and a golden peony hairpin on her head. As usual, the queen was greeted respectfully, and the queen said with a smile:
"I've asked you to wait for a long time, please get up!" The queen raised her hand and said.
The emperor is in a hurry to go to court, so the queen will take the emperor as the main priority. After seeing off the emperor, the queen will have to return to have a meal. Then you have to rinse your mouth again, and maybe wash your mouth again, which naturally takes a little longer.
"Where!" Concubine Niu Hulu stood up, holding the slave's hand, and said, "The queen is working hard, and I, my concubines, all know it. It is my duty to judge the morning and dusk, so where can I wait for a long time?"< br>
Corporal punishment is not allowed in the palace, and even if it is punishment, it is mostly expressed in decent terms. For example: station rules, copying books, palace rules, etc. However, in the palace, there are only two empresses and concubines with high status, the Queen and Concubine Niu Hulu, and neither the Queen nor Concubine Niu Hulu! If there are no mistakes, it is not the temper of others.
Thus, the concubines will also suffer a lot less. In a way, this is also a benefit. The Queen and Concubine Niu Hulu were stable. Others who wanted to commit suicide did not have such an advantage, so naturally they could not do so.
With the same status and status, even if there is awe, how deep can it be. Even if there is, it is gone as quickly as it comes!
The queen smiled quietly and praised: "I know that Concubine Niu Hulu has excellent manners and perfect rules."
Concubine Niu Hulu did a good job, so many people, so many pairs His eyes were deceived. With such a record and such strength, how could the Queen not know about it?
"Empress, you don't mind that I am stupid." Concubine Niu Hulu said calmly and walked away with a smile. A smart person never talks about his intelligence. As a human being, there is no time when he does not make mistakes.
Concubine Niu Hulu is not afraid of making mistakes because she is confident in her ability to reverse and make amends. This is the wisdom and confidence that Niu Hulu has cultivated through all his resources over the past eighteen years.
"You have always been humble!" The queen only mentioned this sentence with a slight smile. Thinking of something, her expression became a little lighter, and the smile on her eyebrows also dissipated, and said: "In the past few months, the queen has been so humble. The Empress Dowager's sixtieth birthday makes me and the emperor very distressed. The tenth birthday is also the sixtieth birthday. I, the emperor, and even Prince Yu and Prince Gong all want to make a grand event. ”
"The emperor, the empress, and the empress are one body, which is an example for the world. The emperor, princes, and queens have always been filial and filial." Concubine Niu Hulu said: "It is still such a big birthday, both emotional and reasonable, great It’s natural to hold a local event.”
Concubine Niu Hulu is just talking about things. It is difficult to live a long life, and it is rare for the Empress Dowager and Queen Mother not to mention that she is in the royal family, but also in the family of a prince or aristocrat. Every birthday is celebrated grandly.
The queen smiled bitterly and said, "I have the same thoughts as you, Concubine Niu Hulu." The queen was a little embarrassed. Even if she didn't know the past, Concubine Niu Hulu could see that there was a hidden meaning in it.
"What is the Queen's difficulty in?" Concubine Niu Hulu can't turn a blind eye! The Queen's attitude has been revealed. No matter what the reason is, Concubine Niu Hulu will always ask.
The queen looked embarrassed, hesitated for a while, sighed again, and then breathed out in one breath, and said to Concubine Niu Hulu: "I, the emperor, and the two princes have already expressed their intention. I reported it to the police, but Madam Huang did not agree.”
"Why...why!" Concubine Niu Hulu hesitated for a while and asked. The concubines below also pricked up their ears. The birthday of the Empress Dowager is not only a major event in the world, but also a major event in the harem.
Although these concubines have low status, they may not even have the opportunity to give birthday gifts to the Empress Dowager alone. But they must also work hard to deal with it.
It would be best if you can shine! If you can't, don't ask for merit, but ask for no faults.
So we got ready early. But it stands to reason that the news should have come earlier, and the harem is not all useless people. The age of the Empress Dowager can be calculated with a little more concentration and listening.
Especially for this kind of life expectancy, it is never an exaggeration to tell the world two or three months in advance! But uncharacteristically, there was no news.
There was no doubt in my mind, but I suppressed it. Who can make the decision on such a major matter in the palace, besides the Empress Dowager, the Emperor and the Empress! No matter which one they can't afford to offend.
The only option is to pretend to be deaf and dumb.
But there must be a reason, and this just happened.
