Chapter 637: The years are quiet
Ma Enhui's state of mind before going out and after returning to her yard was completely different.
Previously, she was able to take a nap peacefully, and she was still in the mood to water the flowers by herself before going out, which seemed to be indisputable and quiet and indifferent. However, at this time, she became very irritable, and the palace maid handed her tea, and she complained that it was "too hot", and when she put down the teacup, the tea also spilled.
"Go down." The maid Qiao'er said to the palace maid who brought tea and water.
When the palace maid went out, Qiao'er stepped forward and said to Ma Enhui: "Is that Mrs. Guo angry with you?" ”
Ma Enhui listened, and immediately turned her head to look at Qiao'er and said, "Did you hear that?" ”
"Nope." Qiao'er hurriedly said, "The slave was not at the door at that time, but was talking to the maid in Mrs. Guo's courtyard in another place!" ”
Ma Enhui nodded, believing Qiao'er's words. Generally in the court, everyone loved to associate with people of equal status. Ma Enhui and Guo Yan walked around, why wouldn't Qiao'er walk around with the palace maids who were on errands elsewhere?
Ma Enhui asked, "Then why do you just say that Mrs. Guo makes me angry?" ”
Qiao'er turned her head to take a look, stepped forward and whispered: "The slave is bored when you come back, guess; Mrs. Guo is in a bad mood and will inevitably be prickly...... I heard that the person who the saint was going to marry should be Mrs. Guo! Later, I didn't know how to change, my sister married the second concubine of the abolished prince, and my sister married the current saint. ”
"And that kind of thing?" Ma Enhui said unexpectedly.
Qiao'er said: "The slave maid also listened to the palace maid on Mrs. Guo's side. The palace maid said it in a good way, and it didn't seem like she was talking nonsense. She said that she heard Mrs. Guo talk about it herself, and she didn't know whether it was true or not, and the source of the news was unknown. ”
"Even if it's true, it's fate." Ma Enhui said quietly, "The matter has come to this, the queen has taken her well, and she shouldn't be dissatisfied." ”
Qiao'er hurriedly said: "You are right. But people, how many people know how to be enough! ”
Ma Enhui couldn't help laughing: "You love to pick up other people's words." ”
Qiao'er stretched out her little tongue and did not deny it. Ma Enhui had already discovered Qiao'er's characteristic, so she didn't believe that Qiao'er's feelings were something that people of her age could understand.
Ma Enhui still hasn't said half a sentence: You Guo Yan are in a bad mood, why are you angry with me? I didn't offend you, is it just because I am weak and easy to bully?
"Forget it, she didn't mean to." Ma Enhui said indifferently, "Maybe others are also saying those words behind their backs, but Mrs. Guo just said it to her face." ”
Qiao'er hurriedly flattered: "Madame's temperament, there are really few women who can compare!" ”
Ma Enhui smiled, noncommittal. It's not that she doesn't care, who wants to belittle people for some reason? It's that she thinks: People like Guo Yan are not much of a threat, and they don't have to deal with it carefully immediately, but Yao Ji's talent is deeply hidden!
Yao Ji was quite polite to Ma Enhui today, even if Yao Ji's strength was very strong now, she didn't show any aggressiveness! But Ma Enhui couldn't believe Yao Ji, so she could just forget it.
Ma Enhui knows what she has done before; understands that Yao Ji has a deep grudge hidden in her heart! So when Guo Yan came out, Yao Ji showed a little happiness of gloating.
I have to guard against Yao Ji!
On the other hand, Ma Enhui wants to use the Guo sisters; Because she doesn't hate Yao Ji, but she hates the abolition of the prince and his wife!
Qiao'er was still talking beside her, but Ma Enhui didn't listen carefully, still thinking about herself...... In this situation, how can we protect ourselves? And how to use the people who can be used to avenge Moon Gyu? Let that family pay the due price for the unscrupulous cruelty!
Between the quiet and gorgeous harem palace and the imperial garden, Ma Enhui has nothing to do, but how easy is it for people to live peacefully and live quietly?
…… Ma Enhui left Guo Yan's residence first, and the queen and Yao Ji left later.
The relationship between Queen Guo Wei and Yao Ji is still very good. Guo Wei is the kind of person who remembers love and righteousness very much, and she has received affection for Yao Ji's kindness and help for several years.
The two women were so good that they sat in the queen's sedan chair and returned to Kunning Palace, which is very rare in the harem.
A group of people gathered around the sedan chair and walked to the corridor of the West Sixth Palace. At this time, Yao Ji turned her head and approached the queen, and said softly: "The queen's sister, she is really bold. ”
Guo Wei was puzzled: "Where to start?" ”
Yao Ji smiled lightly, she smiled very charmingly, but her words were not so good: "Mrs. Ma, but I was offended by Mrs. Guo; Maybe Mrs. Guo doesn't know her very well! Ma is not a simple person, in the palace before, she had a long-term vision, and she also took precautions against women who were the slightest threat; Her methods are even more ruthless, and she dares to do what ordinary people dare not do. ”
Guo Wei said: "That was before. Now that the Holy One is thinking of her kindness, and she is so good that she can do nothing. ”
Guo Wei also has a point, the rules of things in the palace and outside the palace are figured out, the hierarchy is strict, and the dignity and humility are orderly. Ma Enhui has neither fame nor power at this time, and it is really difficult to do something serious.
Yao Ji leaned over cautiously and whispered, "Jianwen's boat is sinking; But on the saint's side, she also retains affection. ”
Guo Wei frowned and pondered for a while, then suddenly showed a shocked expression, and said in a deep voice: "She is the sister-in-law of the saint. ”
"So what?" Yao Ji whispered, "The previous title of the concubine seems to be the little aunt of the saint?" ”
Guo Wei bit her lip lightly and did not refute. Of course, she knew Miaojin's identity, and the newspaper was open to the world; In fact, even Guo Wei used to call Aunt Miaojin herself, but now it's embarrassing to meet!
Yao Ji said softly again: "People, sometimes it's weird, the more things are not allowed, the more you want them." ”
Guo Wei's face gradually changed, revealing a reluctant smile: "Let it be." ”
Yao Ji reminded quietly: "Once the Ma family is favored, if Mrs. Guo offends her today, I am afraid that it will not be so easy to give up." ”
Guo Wei said: "She just said a few words that she didn't like, and she didn't offend Mrs. Ma too much." ”
Yao Ji shook her head and smiled: "If it is a relationship between sisters, or between concubines and queens, of course it is a trivial matter to say a few wrong words. But what is the relationship between Mrs. Guo and Ma, and does Mrs. Guo have a reason to treat Ma like that? ”
Guo Wei was silent, her eyes looked ahead, as if she was thinking about something.
Yao Ji also sat up straight, no longer leaning closer to the queen. She said in her heart: I promised Gao Xu, and I don't care about the previous grudges. But now beware of Ma's favor, it has nothing to do with the past, just for self-preservation; is also because he doesn't have a good impression of Ma's, and he doesn't want people like Ma's to get close to Gao Xu!
What is Mars?! How could she share in Gao Xu's goodness?
The power of the queen in the harem was enormous. Yao Ji is now saying a few words in front of the queen by the way, which is nothing more than simply giving Ma Shi'an a hurdle; Asking Ma to "obtain" a strong enemy in the palace, it is very difficult for her to integrate into this circle again.
But just like this, Yao Ji felt that it was not enough, and she couldn't really hit Ma's!
The greatest hidden strength that Ma now has is that Gao Xu remembers her kindness. Only by letting her be suspicious of the emperor is the way to draw salary from the bottom of the kettle!
Yao Ji also didn't want to fight Ma head-on, because Yao Ji knew the truth that killing a thousand enemies would cost eight hundred; Now one is tile and the other is jade, why does Yao Ji want to fight with her for a bloody battle?
Yao Ji is trying to figure out a way...... Guo Yan, this seemingly useless person, may still have the effect of being used; She may be coming into Ma's sight.
If Ma doesn't do anything, and relies on her good remaining appearance to win the emperor's favor, Yao Ji has no way to take her; But Yao Ji felt that she might not have let go of the hatred of the abolished prince and his wife!
So now Yao Ji has to wait for the opportunity, waiting for the other party to do something......
"Concubine Xian's Palace has arrived, my sister didn't drive out with a car today, so you can get off the sedan here." Guo Wei's voice interrupted Yao Ji's thoughts.
Yao Ji smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll accompany the queen to Kunning Palace, just walk back in a while, and the road is not far." ”
Guo Wei smiled in return and said no more.
On the west wall of Kunning Palace, there is a gatehouse, and a group of people are surrounded by the queen's palanquin, and when you enter the door, you will find a spacious brick square. The majestic Kunning Palace stands on a jade-white pedestal.
The sedan chair was on the pedestal, and Guo Wei and Yao Ji were supported down by the female official. Yao Ji squatted slightly, clasped her fists and saluted in her abdomen: "Please rest the queen, and the concubine will leave." ”
Guo Wei nodded and said, "The imperial concubine lives in the east, far away from her sister and sister Du. But we can't alienate her, and when we have time, my sister and Concubine Shu went to walk around. ”
"Yes, the concubine will obey Yi's order." Yao Ji responded.
With that, the queen turned around and walked into the palace gate. Today's hour is not early, Yao Ji will no longer enter Kunning Palace, and together with the female officials and palace maids beside her, after seeing the queen, she will go down the stone steps.
When the sun is setting, the palace looks particularly beautiful. The light and shadow between the palaces and the dark make the color of the red walls and yellow tiles richer. The palace maid and eunuch who was about to go down also showed a comfortable and relaxed expression, and her breath was full of relaxation and pleasure.
Yao Ji smiled and watched the scenery, but there was still a faint sense of loss in her heart. As the day drew to a close, she was inevitably looking forward to the warmth of that night, the harmony of the piano and the happiness of being in the clouds; But the saint will definitely not find her to sleep tonight, because Yao Ji has slept three days ago, and there are other concubines in the palace.
Yao Ji didn't care if Gao Xu had other women, but if he favored more women, the less Wen Cun she would get.
At this moment, suddenly the eunuch Cao Fu walked quickly to the bottom of the steps. Cao Fu gasped and let out a long sigh: "Concubine Xian, I can find you." The slave maid didn't see you when she went to the Xianfei Palace, so she guessed that you were in Kunning Palace. ”
Yao Ji's slightly lost heart suddenly ignited. She was in a good mood, and she said a few more words: "If Gonggong Cao had come early to have a stick of incense, he wouldn't have been able to find me in Kunning Palace." ”
Cao Fu nodded, and said anxiously: "Niangniang, go back to the palace to bathe and change clothes, the emperor personally wants you to go to the Qianqing Palace to sleep!" ”
Yao Ji had already guessed it just now, she looked at her surroundings with a very calm expression, smiled and looked around, and sighed softly: "The dusk scenery in the palace is really beautiful; And this time is perfect. ”
The beautiful scenery of a good day, that's probably it.
