Chapter 158 Jade Hairpin
Chapter 158 Jade Hairpin
After Feng was chosen and became the first to receive the emperor's favor, the concubines in Chuxiu Palace were almost going crazy with jealousy.
In the following days, they were also busy.
All the concubines tried to take out their jewelry and exchange them for gold and silver to give to the painters who were drawing their portraits, so that the painters would choose the most beautiful angles for them.
So much so that every time Xia Yu flipped the cards, he would be amazed by his concubines.
Xia Yu became very busy.
In just over a month, the other concubines, like Feng, served in the emperor's bedchamber, received rewards, and moved to better residences than Chuxiu Palace.
However, the same thing is that all concubines still have the same status and are still concubines.
Not only did Xia Yu fail to improve anyone's position, he also kept making stupid moves, causing Shen Yuyao a lot of headaches.
Among the concubines, Huang and Feng were enemies who always met each other.
The Zhongcui Palace where Feng was granted residence by Shen Yuyao was originally where Xu Yunxuan lived. The palace was very spacious and magnificent. When it was Huang's turn to serve in the emperor's bedchamber, Xia Yu had an idea for some reason and granted Huang her residence in a side hall in the Zhongcui Palace.
Huang was so angry that she stayed in Zhongcui Palace and disappeared for several days.
After Shen Yuyao learned about it, she asked Zi Su to prepare some items awarded by the palace and went to Zhongcui Palace.
Zhongcui Palace.
The scale of Zhongcui Palace is about the same as that of Ningkang Palace, but because the prince's two most beloved concubines now live in Zhongcui Palace, the new maids and servants in the prince's mansion still rush to Zhongcui Palace.
The Zhongcui Palace is much more lively now than when Xu Yunxuan lived there.
As soon as Shen Yuyao arrived at the palace gate, she heard a commotion inside and she gave Zi Su a look.
Zi Su immediately went to the palace gate and shouted, "The princess has arrived!"
Perhaps everyone in Zhongcui Palace was attracted by the noisy noise, and there was not even a servant to greet them.
Shen Yuyao shook her head and smiled bitterly.
It seems that the rules of the palace need to be rectified.
Shen Yuyao and Zi Su walked all the way to the entrance of the main hall of Zhongcui Palace before they were seen by the maids and servants who were crowded together.
"The princess is here."
"May the princess live in peace and happiness!"
All the palace servants who were crowded together at the gate of Zhongcui Palace to watch the excitement knelt down and greeted them.
"Get up." Shen Yuyao said coldly.
Many maids and servants who looked unfamiliar nodded and bowed to Shen Yuyao.
It is estimated that they have just arrived at Prince Ning's Mansion and this is the first time they have met the Princess Consort.
After a while, Huang came out wearing a rose-red gauze skirt and a colorful phoenix gold hairpin.
"My maidservant greets the princess, may the princess live long and happily."
Following behind Huang was Feng, who was wearing a lake-colored Shu brocade gauze skirt embroidered with dark gold auspicious cloud patterns.
Feng was wearing a simple hairpin on her head, but Shen Yuyao could tell at a glance that the jade hairpin was not ordinary at all. It was a reward from the palace to Prince Ning's Mansion.
The jade hairpins originally came as a pair.
Shen Yuyao had once seen an identical jade hairpin on Xu's head.
"Please don't blame me, Princess. I didn't know you were coming."
Feng was all smiles.
You shouldn't hit someone who smiles at you. When Shen Yuyao encounters a smiling person who actively admits his mistake, she can't hit him at all.
"Why is Zhongcui Palace so unruly? Even a servant guarding the palace gate has been assigned to do something?"
Zi Su snorted coldly, "It seems that the nanny in the palace didn't do her job well."
Feng still had a smile on her face, as if she didn't hear Zi Su's sarcasm, and immediately went up to her with a smile.
"Miss Zisu is right. There are three sisters living in Zhongcui Palace now. Nanny Wang feels sorry for me, her maidservant, and she has assigned a number of newly bought maids to us today."
"No, I was just assigning these new maids with Sister Huang."
Huang, who was standing next to him, also stepped forward and said enthusiastically, "Princess, please come in quickly. This yard has not been fumigated with wormwood yet, so there are many mosquitoes and flies."
Shen Yuyao nodded slightly. She was indeed very attractive to mosquitoes and flies, and she was also very afraid of them.
I still remember Xu Yunxuan once said that Shen Yuyao must have European blood type, which is the physique that attracts mosquitoes the most.
It seems that Huang has made a lot of progress and has done her homework. Just one sentence made Shen Yuyao feel very caring.
But today, Zi Su was a bit unreasonable, "Is this how the palace maids of Zhongcui Palace serve the young lady? It's been several days since the beginning of summer, and you haven't used moxa yet?"
As expected, when Huang heard this, the relaxed smile on her face suddenly froze.
Her eyes flashed, and she directly supported Shen Yuyao's arm, "Your Majesty, the palace servants of Zhongcui Palace are still doing their best to serve you. It's just that today, when I was playing with my sister Feng, I didn't expect that all the palace servants came to watch the fun, and even the servants guarding the palace gate were not left. It's neglected Your Majesty."
After hearing this, Shen Yuyao finally understood the whole story.
It turned out that Huang and Feng had a dispute over the palace servants who served them.
It seemed that both sides were shouting and cursing at each other, using the Joseon dialect. The palace servants could not understand what was being said for a moment, so they all ran to the door of the main hall.
Even the servants guarding the palace gate rushed over to see what had happened.
It just so happened that Shen Yuyao came to Zhongcui Palace, which caused Zi Su's dissatisfaction.
Shen Yuyao took the initiative to pat Huang's hand and said, "Huang, it seems that you and Feng will have to use the official language of the Great Xia Dynasty when you play around in the future. Otherwise, no one in the palace will understand and can't help you. Isn't it a mess?"
Shen Yuyao gave Huang and Feng a way out.
Let’s just let this matter pass.
To be honest, this is not a big mistake and there is no need to take it seriously.
Seeing that Shen Yuyao was so reasonable, Feng and Huang both smiled immediately. They stood on both sides and let Shen Yuyao walk in front.
Shen Yuyao looked at Zhongcui Palace. The flowers, plants and trees were still the same, but the original owner Xu Yunxuan could never come back here again.
For a moment, I felt a sense of how things and people have changed.
Especially Huang, who looked somewhat similar to Xu Yunxuan, made Shen Yuyao sigh in her heart.
She still remembered that Xu Yunxuan once said that she was her only friend in this world!
Xu Yunxuan's body has the same blood as hers. At this moment, Shen Yuyao just wants to get drunk with Xu Yunxuan again!
Just drink "night beer"!
She walked into the main hall of Zhongcui Palace and sat down on the main seat.
The decoration and furnishings of the main hall are still exactly the same as when Xu Yunxuan was here, even the cracked bone china vase on the antique shelf is still there.
As Shen Yuyao watched, she began to miss Xu Yunxuan even more.
On weekdays, when the two of them were often together, she never thought that one day they would go their separate ways.
She even thought that she would have to fight with Xu Yunxuan for the rest of her life. She never thought that the two of them would have such a deep connection.
No wonder Xu Yunxuan said that if there is no debt in the previous life, we will never see each other again in this life.
Shen Yuyao picked up the teacup that Zi Su handed over and took a sip. Then she heard a message from outside the palace, "The imperial edict has arrived. Please ask the princess to go to Yongtai Palace to receive it!"
