The Self-cultivation of the Noble Concubine Who Eats Melon

  Chapter 47 047: It's the troublemaker

  Song Yexi was worried about Song Yunzhao, so she stood up and said, "Nurse, I want to take care of my sister. She is hurt like this. It's because I, a sister, neglected my duty and failed to take good care of her."

  The nanny in charge gave Song Yexi an indifferent look, "Miss Song will naturally be taken care of by palace servants, so don't worry."

  Song Yexi frowned, and wanted to say something, so she listened to the nanny in charge and said, "Stand up according to the position just now. If you stand up and admit what happened today, you will just be punished and let it go. If you wait until you find out, the palace won't be able to accommodate you."

   Song Yexi had to keep his mouth shut when he heard this, knowing that he couldn't take care of Yun Zhao, he could just stay, just to see who was responsible for it.

  Song Yunzhao went back to his room with a dazed expression on his face, and the maid who brought her back said, "Miss Song, sit still and don't move. This servant will bring you water to wash, and the nurse will be here soon."

   "It's time to work." Song Yunzhao said.

  The court lady got up to fetch the water. Song Yunzhao saw a hole in the skirt at the knee, which shows how powerful the impact was.

  The female doctor came very quickly, seeing Song Yunzhao's sad brows, she couldn't help but frown, and gently scrubbed her wound, causing Song Yunzhao to breathe in and out of pain.

  The serving maid looked at the frowning of the beauty, and she felt distressed. The eyes of the beauty with black eyes and tears were red, as if she had applied a layer of rouge, which made her heart beat faster.

   "Miss Song, just bear with it, and you will be fine soon." The palace maid couldn't help but comfort her.

  Song Yunzhao was in real pain, gritted his teeth and nodded, unable to speak a word.

  After the torture-like cleaning was completed, Song Yunzhao breathed a sigh of relief, and the medical woman said slowly after hearing this: "This scrape should be covered with ointment in time, and don't get wet. The girl needs to heal for four or five days before she can walk."

Um?

  Four or five days?

   Doesn’t that mean you don’t need to learn the rules?

  Song Yunzhao's eyes lit up, this is really another village.

  The medical lady gently applied the ointment and bandaged her up, and told the maid how to change the dressing to take care of her, and then she left.

  Song Yunzhao drank tea and ate some fruit comfortably, lying comfortably in the room, while the nurse in charge on the other side passed the news of Song Yunzhao's injury to Zhang Maoquan after hesitation.

  Zhang Maoquan was working in front of the imperial court, he was stunned when he got the news, was he injured again?

  He looked at the little servant who came to pass the letter and asked: "What's going on, please explain it carefully."

  The little servant replied: "Returning to the manager, Madam Zhang said that the matter is still being investigated. It has not yet been found out whether Miss Song's fall was man-made or an accident. However, the beautiful girl who knocked Miss Song said that someone bumped her, so she hit Miss Song."

   Zhang Maoquan heard this and thought that this Song girl was really unlucky. It was probably not an accident, but he couldn't say anything without evidence, so he looked at the little servant and said, "Go and answer Zhang Nanny, you must check it out."

   No matter what His Majesty thinks about this Song girl, if His Majesty asks, he can't be vague here and don't know the truth.

   "Yes, servant girl will go now." The little servant turned around and left without daring to delay.

  Zhang Maoquan was thinking about how to return this matter to His Majesty. When he looked up, he saw Xu Sixi standing on the steps and looking at him.

   "Boss Zhang, what happened to him? Why does he look so unhappy? If you need help from our family, just ask. We are all servants in front of the imperial court. If we can help, we will definitely help." Xu Sixi kept staring at Zhang Maoquan and said with a smile.

  Zhang Maoquan gave a sound in his heart, but said on his mouth: "It's just a few trivial things, and it's not worth the work of the subordinates. It's enough to give a few pointers. There's no need for Mr. Xu to worry about it."

  Both he and Xu Sixi served His Majesty before, and after His Majesty ascended the throne, the two of them could be regarded as ascending to heaven with chickens and dogs, but they were not in harmony before, and they have been fighting fiercely in recent years.

  There are only a few positions around His Majesty, the two of them dare not compete with Meng Jiuchang, but they don't want the other party to overwhelm them.

   Now, His Majesty has been suppressing the unusual things about Miss Song, but Xu Sixi can't get the news. Listening to him asking, it's not like he's trying to deal with it.

   "Really?" Xu Sixi didn't believe a word, looked at the direction the servant was leaving and thought carefully, "It's fine if there's nothing to do, I still have an errand, so I'll take a step ahead."

  Zhang Maoquan cupped his hands, and after he left, the smile on his face immediately disappeared, and he scolded the dog's nose in his heart, and he could chase after him if he had a smell.

  He collected himself, thought about it, and felt that this matter still needs to be reported.

  He stepped up the steps and walked into the side hall. He didn't see Meng Jiuchang, so he knew that he must be serving in front of the imperial court. He waved his hand and called the servant in the hall over, and told him: "Go and ask Director Meng. I have something to report to Your Majesty. You can see me now."

   "Yes." The little servant nodded, and then walked out quickly.

  There are rules in front of the palace, and when he can replace Meng Jiuchang in front of His Majesty, there will be no need for so many twists and turns in doing things.

  The little servant came back very quickly, he saluted, and then said: "Boss Zhang, His Majesty is busy at the moment, Boss Meng told you to wait in advance."

  What else can Zhang Maoquan do, he can only wait.

  In the hall, Feng Yi's deep eyes stared at the words on the notebook, a sarcasm smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he slammed the notebook on the table. These people took him for a fool.

   Meng Jiuchang saw that His Majesty was in a bad mood, so he swallowed back what he wanted to say back, but let's wait for Zhang Maoquan's matter, he can't take the blame for Zhang Maoquan.

  Feng Yi stood up and stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back. Looking out from here, the guards with swords in armor were guarding the imperial city majestically. But how many of these people are loyal to him?

  Just last year, he specially arranged for his cronies to go to the south to serve as the magistrate. After he made political achievements, he was promoted to six departments. However, he accidentally leaked the news.

  Feng Yi knew that now the cabinet and the six ministries were in unison to fight against him, the emperor, and to empty him.

  Thinking of this, he sneered.

  It was just a chess piece he threw out, and these people swarmed up like dogs grabbing bones.

   "Meng Jiuchang."

   "The servant is here."

   "Send the glass cup that came in yesterday to Concubine Shu."

"yes."

  Meng Jiuchang readily agreed to turn around and leave, but he couldn't help muttering in his heart, yesterday Concubine Shu wanted His Majesty but didn't give it to her, and today she gave it away, and he didn't know what His Majesty meant.

  Anyway, everyone in the harem of Liulizhan has been staring at it for a long time, and now that it is in the hands of Concubine Shu, I am afraid that the other empresses will be unhappy.

  Zhang Maoquan has been waiting in the side hall, but he didn't wait for His Majesty to summon him. Instead, he saw Meng Jiuchang leaving in a hurry, and couldn't help but spit in his heart. Meng Jiuchang must have not reported his request to see His Majesty.

  Thinking of this, Zhang Maoquan didn't want to wait any longer. Meng Jiuchang left, and his opportunity just came.

  Zhang Maoquan walked out of the side hall quickly, and walked directly to the main hall. The little inner **** who guarded the gate greeted him when he saw him.

  Zhang Maoquan raised his head without looking at them, and stepped directly into the threshold.

   "My servant pays homage to Your Majesty." Zhang Maoquan stepped forward after entering the hall, knelt on the ground and saluted.

  Feng Yi didn't lift his head when he heard the voice, he just said: "Say."

   "Your Majesty, I just got the news that Miss Song was injured by someone."

  Feng Yi was taken aback for a moment, and only after he collected himself did he remember who Miss Song was, the one who caused trouble. He looked up at Zhang Maoquan who was kneeling, and asked, "What's going on?"

  Zhang Maoquan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, he was afraid that if His Majesty didn't ask, it would be easier to ask.

   "Several nuns taught Xiunv how to behave today. After Miss Song was knocked down, she said that the person who hit her was deliberately pushed. I know that the **** palace is still investigating, and the slaves haven't got any news yet. But I heard that Miss Song was seriously injured. The doctor said that she had to rest for four or five days before she could move easily." Zhang Maoquan slightly aggravated the injury.

  Feng Yi:...

   Tsk, Song Yunzhao's luck is not very good, every time he meets her, something will happen.

   is really more unlucky than him.

  Thinking about it this way, Feng Yi's previously depressed mood became better. He looked at Zhang Maoquan's eyes and naturally knew what his plan was.

  Thinking about this, he said, "Go and see what's going on, but don't alarm people."

  Zhang Maoquan immediately said: "Your maidservant will go now."

  Leaving the main hall refreshed, Zhang Maoquan knew that he had made the right bet. His Majesty was really special to this Miss Song.

  Don't disturb anyone... that is, don't disturb Miss Song, then he can directly ask the nanny in charge.

  Zhang Maoquan went straight to Zhichun Palace, Song Yunzhao was full and fast asleep.

  Nurse Zhang was very busy here. When she heard Zhang Maoquan coming, she couldn't help but thumped in her heart, and immediately got up to greet him.

   "This old slave has seen Director Zhang, what brought you here, but what orders do you have?" Madam Zhang welcomed Zhang Maoquan into the main hall with a smile on her face.

  Zhang Maoquan looked serious, with a straight body, looking at Nanny Zhang with his eyes, "I heard that Miss Song was injured, Nanny, what's going on?"

  Nurse Zhang had already guessed vaguely in her heart, but when she heard Zhang Maoquan's question with her own ears, her heart still skipped a beat.

  Her eyes flashed, and then she opened her mouth and said: "It's all the servants who didn't do their job well, which disturbed Manager Zhang. Today, learning the rules, some beautiful girls couldn't hold on. When they accidentally fell, they knocked down others, and they hurt Miss Song."

   "Really? Madam Zhang, you are a smart person, don't block anything for anyone."

  Nurse Zhang was about to shed cold sweat, and the smile on her face became more and more sincere, "Mr. Zhang, this old slave has been working in this **** palace for decades. You know, I have always been fair in doing things, and I dare not speak nonsense."

  Zhang Maoquan sneered in his heart, he didn't believe this, "It's good that the mother knows."

  Nurse Zhang bowed to send Zhang Maoquan away, her complexion completely changed, she quickly stepped into the inner room, took out the letter she had received earlier and burned it with a torch, her dark face was uncertain.

  I knew it was a hot job, she didn't dare to offend Zhang Maoquan, and she didn't dare to offend the person who gave her the message, but he hung her in mid-air and couldn't get up or down.

  Nurse Yin entered the door at this moment, smelling the smell of burning things in the air, she frowned and said, "Sent people away?"

  Nurse Zhang nodded, "How is it with you?"

   "What else can I do? She has a very hard mouth. She insisted on saying that she was jealous of Miss Song, and that's why she hit someone and hurt her, so she took it all on her own." Nanny Yin didn't care too much.

   There are always a few unlucky ones who are on the way for others.

   Who is to blame.

   Naturally, they blamed their family for using their own daughter as a stepping stone.

  Nurse Zhang snorted, "Then it's settled?"

  Nurse Yin raised her eyes and looked at Nanny Zhang, "Zhang Maoqian asked all in person, do you think it's feasible?"

   If no one is in charge of this, it will be fine, but now that Zhang Maoquan has reached out, of course they can't be careless.

   "Otherwise, what do you think we should do? We are so talented as the nanny in charge. She killed the beautiful woman herself, unless she sent her to the Punishment Department for interrogation. However, for a Song girl, Manager Zhang will make such a big fuss?"

  Nurse Zhang lowered her voice, and there was a slight indescribable meaning in her words. There are so many high-ranking concubines in the harem staring at her. It may not be a good thing if someone shows up in the **** palace so soon.

  Nurse Yin was also upset, thought for a while and said: "No matter what, this Song girl seems to have good luck. The one said that this year, no matter what, there will be something different in this palace."

  Nurse Zhang sighed, "That's how it is."

  Nurse Yin patted Nanny Zhang on the arm, "You don't have to worry, I see that Miss Song is not an ordinary person. Let's keep her today, and maybe she can still pass the TOEFL in the future."

  Nurse Zhang shook her head, "I don't dare to count on this, I just hope that I can leave the palace safely."

  Nurse Yin's face was silent when she heard the words, and then she chuckled, "That's right." She said as she walked out, "I'll go to Miss Song's side, and I'll leave Miss Xiu's side to you."

   "How do people deal with it?"

   "Of course it will be reported."

  Nurse Zhang said angrily, "Which empress should I report to?"

  If Concubine Chu is still alive, it is natural to report it to the Concubine, but there are no other concubines. There are three concubines in this palace, and choosing one will offend the other two.

   "You're also confused. Your Majesty didn't order the girls in the harem to take care of the draft. Naturally, you should go to the Tai Chi Palace."

  Nurse Zhang opened her mouth and said nothing, because she wanted to go wrong, "If I had known this, I should have talked more carefully to Mr. Zhang just now."

  She has to make another trip here, and besides, there is not only Zhang Maoquan at the Taiji Hall, but also Meng Jiuchang and Xu Sixi, she can't afford to provoke any of them.

  The two acted separately, not noticing that a figure flashed away at the rear window.

  After listening to Nanny Yin's words, Song Yunzhao showed a surprised expression on his face, "I have no grievances with Zhang Xiunv, I didn't expect her to have such harmful thoughts, it is really unbelievable."

  Nurse Yin said after hearing the words: "Miss Song, don't be sad. There will always be some unsmooth things in the drafts of the past dynasties. You will be lucky if you have auspicious signs."

  Song Yunzhao's expression brightened, "Then I'll borrow my mother's auspicious words, but what will happen to this beautiful girl?"

   "Naturally, I will be sent out of the palace, and I am no longer eligible to stay in the palace to stand for election."

  Song Yunzhao made a look of dissatisfaction, and said after a long while: "Thank you, mother."

  Looking at the displeasure on Song Yunzhao's face, Nanny Yin knew that she was not satisfied with the result. If Song Yunzhao came from a rich family, then Xiu Nu would not be able to leave the palace safely, but since she was not from a high family background, no one would force her to stand out for her.

  Nurse Yin looked at Song Yunzhao's face and felt that if she could really stay in the election, she could confuse the harem with this face, and said with a smile: "Miss Song has won the award, this is what the old slave should do. If the girl has no other orders, the old slave will retire first."

  Song Yunzhao took out the banknotes he had prepared and stuffed them in, "Drink tea for a few mothers, I've made you worry about my affairs."

  Nurse Yin didn't refuse to put it away, "Thank you Miss Song for the reward."

   After receiving the money, they have contacts. It is their blessing that this person can really stand on the high ground in the future.

  After Yin Nanny left, Song Yunzhao chuckled, the people in this palace were indeed masters of acting, if she didn't know the truth from the book, she might be fooled by Yin Nanny.

   Fortunately, the two nuns handled things fairly and did not take her seriously.

  Whether she was knocked down today was a disaster for the heroine can’t be generalized. In addition, although the heroine in the book was knocked down, she was not injured as badly as she was. It was just a fall, and she was fine when she got up.

  When I arrived at her place, I was bruised and bleeding, but it was really a high-level treatment that only cannon fodder had. Thinking about this unwarranted disaster made my heart suffocate.

   On the other side, Zhang Maoquan naturally didn't just listen to the words of the nanny in charge, but also went to ask the girl Xiu who started the job, and then returned to the Tai Chi Hall to answer.

   "Hitting someone out of jealousy?" Feng Yi sneered, he was fooling him for a fool.

   "Yes, that Xiu Nu admitted it herself." Zhang Maoquan naturally knew that the matter was not simple, but Xiu Nu refused to change her words unless she was sent to prison for interrogation, but the noise would be so loud that it would inevitably startle the snake.

   "Which family does the show girl belong to?"

   "The daughter of the magistrate of Fengyang."

   "Feng Yang..." Feng Yi pondered slightly, and the ancestral home of the right assistant Yao Zongjing was Feng Yang.

  Thinking of this, he looked at Zhao Maoquan, "Go and find out what Concubine Wan has done recently."

   "Yes." Zhang Maoquan led the order to retreat. Xu Sixi had always been close to Concubine Wan, and he became excited when he thought of this. If Concubine Wan is rejected by His Majesty, see if Xu Sixi's tail can still be raised, and he will be full of energy in an instant.

  The night at Zhichun Palace was very lively, and many people from Song Yunzhao went to visit.

  Feng Yi went to Zhaoyang Palace where Concubine Zhuang Wang Yunyi lived at night. Concubine Shu Lu Min, who got the glazed cup during the day, threw down the teacup angrily. She thought that His Majesty would come to her at night. After all, the glazed cup rewarded her, so she went to Zhaoyang Palace.

  However, thinking that Concubine Wan didn't have a glazed cup and didn't pick her up, she felt a little happier. She was unhappy and had to be accompanied, so she sent a message to Roufu Palace to let Concubine Wan know that Majesty had gone to Zhaoyang Palace.

  Concubine Wan Yao Yirong was not as furious as Concubine Shu had expected when she got the news. She looked calm, and her brows wrinkled when she remembered the letter from her family.

   Is the position of imperial concubine so easy to grab?

  Once Chu Yuling died, many people stared at the position of the noble concubine, and the position of the noble concubine was the latter.

  Thinking about it this way, her expression became ugly.

  It seems that it is indeed necessary to choose a right-hand man from the new class of show girls. Although she is unwilling to do this, the family's words make sense.

  Others thought that she was conferred the title of Concubine Wan because of her beauty and favor, but only she knew that she was still a virgin, and she even dared not tell her family members that if they knew that she was incompetent and would not be favored by His Majesty, they might abandon her and choose someone else to enter the palace.

  If she is abandoned by her family, how will she gain a foothold in the palace in the future?

  The more Yao Yirong thinks about it, the more ugly his expression becomes. The head of the family is Lu Zhixue, the daughter of Minister of the Ministry of Officials...

  Shang Shu's daughter to help her?

   It's really funny, I'm afraid the Lu family will use her as a stepping stone.

  However, right now she really needs a fresh beauty as a helper, at least get the position of imperial concubine first, and push Concubine Shu and Concubine Zhuang down. As for Lu Zhixue...it depends on whether she knows current affairs.

   In a few days, Zhichun Palace will have to read the rules after learning the rules. Until then, let’s see the situation before making a decision.

  Thinking of this, she looked at the people around her and asked: "Le Chun, I remember Concubine Zhuang mentioned that there seems to be a particularly outstanding girl among the beautiful women, which family are you talking about?"

   Le Chun immediately said: "My lady, Concubine Zhuang is talking about a beautiful girl with the surname Song, but you don't have to worry, that beautiful girl Song is from a humble background, even if she stays in the election for the first time, she will definitely not be high, and she won't be able to cause a storm."

   Concubine Wan shook her head, "I'm just curious, how did Concubine Zhuang notice this beautiful girl?"

  Show girls from humble backgrounds failed to make further progress. How could they pay attention to them, but it was interesting for Wang Yunyi to mention such a person.

   Le Chun said: "I have inquired about it. Concubine Zhuang heard that the head of County An is also running for the election, and asked people to investigate the matter. It turned out that the head of County Ming'an was very close to a beautiful girl surnamed Song, so she noticed her."

   "County Master Ming'an? The one from Zhenbei Palace?" Concubine Wan sneered, "I met her a few times before I entered the palace. At that time, I was still a little girl, and her temper was not very good. People who can get together with her... I am a little curious when you say that, how is that girl?"

  Le Chun shook his head, "I didn't dare to inquire carefully, empress, I know that His Majesty has not handed over the affairs of the Erotic Palace to the harem. I am afraid that my servant will cause trouble for you if you act too much."

   "You're right." Concubine Wan stood up, her long skirt swaying on the ground, and the golden thread embroidered patterns were shining brightly under the light, "Then keep an eye on Concubine Zhuang, Concubine Zhuang cares about He Lanyun. Could it be that the Wang family has contacts with the Zhenbei Palace?"

  Le Chun didn't dare to intervene, she didn't know what was going on outside the palace.

  Concubine Wan stood in front of the window, the palace lanterns under the eaves swayed slightly with the night wind, and the hazy yellow light reflected on the ground also swayed.

  When Chu Yuling died at the beginning, she had a bad feeling, but when the time came, His Majesty complied with the wishes of the ministers and opened the draft.

  Now that bad feeling came back to her mind, she always felt that something was going to happen, but she really couldn't predict what would happen.

   "Your Majesty, it's getting late, let's get some rest earlier." Le Chun persuaded, "Tomorrow I'm going to Empress Shu's tea banquet, so you have to rest well."

   Majesty went to Concubine Zhuang's place, but the empress said she didn't care, but she was still sad.

   "Tea banquet?" Concubine Wan's eyes lit up, but she forgot about it for a while, and her mood suddenly improved. It must be an interesting banquet, and she just waited to watch the fun

   Let me tell you, normally I update a chapter with 2,000 words, and I update three chapters every day, but I update a chapter with 6,000 words, which is the weight of three chapters. Don’t think that I am lazy with one chapter a day. Thank you for your support, I love you guys.
