Chapter 359: The person who moved the Zhongcui Palace
As a queen, she naturally would not think about the situation of a palace maid. The queen is not enough for her to deal with when facing major issues, so who has the time to deal with what a palace maid is about to encounter in the harem?
However, Empress Zhou was kind after all. She finally felt soft-hearted when she saw Concubine Miao who begged. She decided to let her go. After all, Concubine Miao was from a superior family since childhood and was born in a wealthy businessman. I think it was natural for her to become Concubine Miao to become a little more popular.
Since she has admitted her mistake, why should I report this to Chongzhen? Wouldn't it be better to sell Concubine Miao to arrogance? She will be grateful to herself in the future.
Since she thought so, after Empress Zhou scolded Concubine Miao, she was about to give up the matter.
Concubine Miao also breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. It was not easy to climb to the position of a concubine. She didn't want to lose the emperor's favor. Once she was disgusted by Chongzhen, her life would be over.
However, just as Queen Zhou was immediately Jingren Palace, the eunuchs of Shangshenjian brought various delicacies to the price of the water.
This was the previous order of Concubine Miao, so Shangshenjian naturally did not dare to neglect it. What's so bad is that Concubine Miao, the arrogant and domineering Concubine Miao, ordered some Jiaozhou seafood.
Seafood, this is Beijing. The transportation in the Ming Dynasty had not yet developed to the point of trains and planes, and it was still dependent on human and animal power. Moreover, Concubine Miao was not a seafood from Jiaozhou, Shandong, and even Tianjin Wei did not do it.
This is just like when Emperor Xuanzong of Tang laughed at Yang Guifei, the concubine who was riding on the red dust, and no one knew it was lychee.
The difference is that Chongzhen was not Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, he was kept in the dark. Fortunately, seafood was not harvested now, but Jiaozhou has a good harvest of seafood and local tribute. After hearing about this, Concubine Miao hurriedly asked Shangshenjian to deliver it to her.
Originally, a concubine, she had no such great power. Because she was newly enthroned, the harem was made of an unwritten rule, and the newly enthroned concubines would receive special treatment for a period of time. Therefore, Concubine Miao dared to be domineering and extravagant.
This kind of woman has no brains, otherwise she would not have done such a thing. That is, during the Chongzhen period, Empress Zhou was kind.
If it were Chenghua, such concubines would have been killed or sent to the cold palace long ago.
After serving plates of seafood, Queen Zhou's face was obviously even worse. She glared at Concubine Miao fiercely, scaring Concubine Miao to shyly lower her head.
Queen Zhou was kind after all. She just shook her sleeves angrily and took the palace maids to leave. The rest were Concubine Miao from Jingren Palace and several maids around her.
At this time, Douhua'er was in trouble. She was from Zhongcui Palace and did not follow Queen Zhou back to Kunning Palace. Douhua'er could only be careful and moved out of Jingren Palace step by step, hoping that Concubine Miao and others would forget her.
"Stop." The cold voice of Concubine Miao came from behind.
Douhuaer trembled all over and had to turn around and salute. Concubine Miao was not polite and slapped Douhuaer in the face with a slap.
"Bitch, you dare to come to the Queen to make trouble. Now your master is still in Liaodong, let's take a look." Concubine Miao looked at her viciously.
Douhua'er didn't dare to say anything, so she gave a gift and fled from Jingren Palace in a hurry.
That's right, Zhu Cixuan is not in the capital, and no one can protect her. If Zhu Cixuan is there, Concubine Miao will naturally not dare to do anything to Douhuaer. But now that Zhu Cixuan is not here, Concubine Miao wants to kill her.
What does it mean to be a nest of snakes and rats? Or birds of a feather flock together. The palace maid next to Concubine Miao, a tall and sharp-mouthed palace maid, looked at the fleeing Douhuaer, and viciously slandered: "Concubine Miao, this slut is all this slut who says bad things about you in front of the Empress. Now that you hit her again, she will definitely hate you."
Concubine Miao sneered and said contemptuously: "So what, what can a little bitch do to this palace?"
This palace, the profession of the lord of a palace, generally refers to the profession of the queen and the concubine who owns an independent palace. Or the crown prince lives in the East Palace and can call himself the palace, such as Zhu Cilang. There is also a princess who has an adult, and when the princess becomes an adult, she can also call herself the palace.
The sharp-mouthed palace maid pondered for a moment: "My concubine, you naturally don't have to take a slut, but I heard that she is a popular man in front of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. This slut is very arrogant in front of the Crown Prince's Hall. It is said that Your Royal Highness obeys her will."
After the sharp-mouthed maid said this, Concubine Miao asked with some concern: "Oh, so I can't touch her."
A fat palace maid next to her smiled gloatingly: "That may not be true. Sister Hongju must have a solution, right?"
It turned out that the sharp-mouthed palace maid was named Hongju. There was a hint of undetectable sneer on the corner of her mouth: "What's the difficulty? If you offend us Concubine Miao, you want to get out of here so easily. How can you do this? Concubine Miao, we can't touch her openly, but we can drive her out of the palace. Even if the crown prince knows it, there is nothing we can do."
Concubine Miao was stunned: "Oh, tell me, what's the best way."
The sharp-mouthed palace maid Hong Ju whispered a few words in Concubine Miao's ear. Concubine Miao also showed a gloating expression on her face, and then she nodded constantly: "Ling Dan, look for the reward."
The two maids around Concubine Miao, with a mean-looking sharp-mouthed palace maid named Hongju, are scheming and good at using tricks. They are a typical villain. The fat palace maid is called Ludan, who is a temptation to be in power. They are plastic sisters, and they are both right-hand men around Concubine Miao.
Because of the matter of burning, charcoal and powder, Douhua has been beaten several times. This time, Concubine Miao, in anger, took a lot of action, and half of Douhua's face became swollen.
When she returned to Zhongcui Palace, Douhua'er did not dare to let others see her. She covered her face and secretly hid back to her room. In order to facilitate the care of Prince Zhu Cilang, Douhua'er's room was next to Zhu Cilang's dormitory.
Unlike other bedrooms, because of Zhu Cilang, the palace maids and eunuchs in Zhongcui Palace are particularly free. On weekdays, Zhu Cilang has no airs towards them. Therefore, the palace servants in Zhongcui Palace are probably the happiest palace servants in the entire Forbidden City.
The palace maids and eunuchs were also very united, without any intrigue like other bedrooms. The people in Zhongcui Palace were more like family members. This was extremely rare for the palace in the imperial society.
Although Douhuaer tried hard to hide it, she was inevitably discovered by others. This time, Sun Wangcai did not go north with Zhu Cixuan. He and Sanxi and some young eunuchs felt something was wrong when they saw Douhuaer coming back.
"Douhua, Douhua, open the door, open the door." Sanxi slapped the door outside.
There was no sound inside, and Wangcai was not so polite. He pushed the door open with great force. Then, he saw the beans with red and swollen face.
