Chapter 305: Honesty
Chapter 305: Honesty
Zhang Yuyan smiled and said, "That's true. This Jiangnan tune sounds gentle and moving. I only heard two sentences and felt numb to my bones. If the emperor heard it, I guess Jin Ronghua would be favored for a while again."
Zhang Yuyan no longer hesitated to say these words in front of Lin Junxue.
Lin Junxue smiled and nodded
"Of course, this Jiangnan tune attracts men's hearts, and the emperor is no exception."
Lin Junxue has always been indifferent to this kind of means of competing for favor.
Besides, she had done enough to take care of Xie Yu during this period of time.
Zheng Jin was able to seduce Xie Yu away, which was her ability, so she can take a break.
Zhang Yuyan said, "Your Majesty, that's true. You must be tired of serving the emperor these days."
Lin Junxue looked at Zhang Yuyan and curled her lips
"The Emperor said yesterday that before he goes to Jiangnan, he will issue an imperial decree to confer you the title of Huipin. You should prepare well during this period of time."
Zhang Yuyan paused, and it was obvious that she was not surprised that she was canonized as Concubine Hui.
for a while
Zhang Yuyan said, "Your Majesty, in fact, before I entered the palace, the Emperor had already agreed with my grandfather that in the end, one of the four concubines would have my place, so my grandfather sent me into the palace."
Lin Junxue responded to Zhang Yuyan's honesty, curled her lips and looked into her eyes.
"I have guessed this. Your Zhang family has supported the emperor since he was a prince. You are loyal to him and trusted by him. You are important officials in the court. And you are the only legitimate daughter. Your entry into the palace must be conditional. The emperor promised the Zhang family the position of one of the four concubines. I am not surprised."
Zhang Yuyan was stunned and asked, "Madam, have you guessed it all?"
Lin Junxue said softly, "From the moment your portrait was sent to the palace and you participated in the selection, I knew that you would keep your name card and enter the palace. If you don't make any big mistakes, it's only a matter of time before you are crowned a concubine."
In this harem, the family background of concubines is extremely important. If one has a strong maternal family, then some mistakes can be tolerated.
If one's family background is humble, then in this harem, a small mistake would be enough to cost one's life.
Just like how Sun Manrou had previously oppressed concubines of lower rank, beating and scolding them at will, Xie Yu just pretended not to see it.
In the final analysis, it is because the Sun family behind Sun Manrou guards the southwest, so Xie Yu can tolerate Sun Manrou.
But if the concubine was of low family background, even if she was favored, Xie Yu would not show mercy if she made a mistake.
Just like the original owner, she had not been favored by Xie Yu for eight years.
It was also because the Lin family had millions of soldiers and horses guarding the border that Xie Yu gave her the title of queen even though he was displeased.
From ancient times to the present, family background has been an innate gap between people.
But this family background brings both advantages and disadvantages.
The powerful maternal families of her and Sun Manrou destined them to be unable to have children.
Just like Xie Yu seems to have given her endless honor and favor now, but once he takes action against the Lin family,
Then, all grace will disappear in an instant.
This is truly a thought of heaven or a thought of hell.
As long as she sits on the position of queen, and Xie Yu is not dead, she will have to fight on thin ice and cannot stop for a moment.
Zhang Yuyan looked expectantly at Lin Junxue who was sitting opposite her. She hesitated for a moment.
Thinking about the system saying that the current favorability has reached 70, this means that the queen now trusts her very much.
She still said, "My lady, in fact, I entered the palace for you. Do you believe it?"
Zhang Yuyan knew that if she told others about the system in her body, no one would believe her.
But at this moment, she inexplicably hoped that the Queen would be willing to believe her words.
Lin Junxue raised her eyes and looked at Zhang Yuyan's face.
There is something about Yuyan that she cannot understand.
Today, since Yuyan is willing to speak, it would of course be good to answer her questions.
Lin Junxue nodded
"In fact, I have noticed since you were selected for the selection that you seem to care more about my attitude. Since you entered the palace, you have always stood by my side and unconditionally believed in and helped me. I once suspected whether you had ulterior motives, but after spending some time together, I know very well that you are wholeheartedly devoted to me, Yanran. Naturally, I also want to know why."
Just as Zhang Yuyan was about to speak, she heard a warning from the system in her body.
Zhang Yuyan could only say, "Your Majesty, I am sincere to you. Now, I cannot tell you the reason. It is not because I don't want to, but because I cannot. I hope Your Majesty can believe that even if everyone betrays you, I will not. This is the promise I can give you."
Lin Junxue looked at Zhang Yuyan deeply. At this moment, she did not doubt Zhang Yuyan's sincerity towards her, but she could also see the unspeakable secret in her eyes.
Lin Junxue didn't ask any further questions. Everyone has their own privacy and secrets.
Yuyan has shown her her greatest sincerity.
Lin Junxue said softly, "Yuyan, I believe you, and I know you have your own difficulties. From now on, if you want to talk about it, just tell me. Don't treat the secret in your heart as a burden."
What's more, which woman in the harem doesn't have secrets in her heart?
Zhang Yuyan was moved
"My lady, I am very glad that it is you."
There was another sentence that Zhang Yuyan kept in her heart, which was that she had always been very grateful that the system chose the Queen as her target.
If he really is that kind of person with a vicious, insidious and cruel mind.
It is conceivable how frustrating this road of strategy must be for her.
Lin Junxue was just about to drink her tea when she heard Zhang Yuyan say this. She paused for a moment, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
If Yuyan's personality were placed in modern times, I'm afraid the lilies in her hometown would be in full bloom.
evening
Lin Junxue looked at Xie Yu who came to Zhonghe Palace for dinner again. After they finished their meal, they sat on the couch.
Danzhen served Qingxin tea and stepped aside. After Xie Yu tasted the tea, he said in a deep voice.
"Jun'er, we will go south next month. You can take care of the concubines in the harem who will accompany us."
Lin Junxue smiled and said, "Your Majesty, this trip south will take two months. I wonder if the concubines in the harem, Concubine Mi, Concubine Chen, Concubine Lan, Concubine Yan, Concubine Jin, Concubine Sun Shunyi, and Concubine Shu, should be brought along?"
Xie Yu said, "No need, let her stay in the palace and recuperate."
If it weren't for the fact that Qin Shushu was a good fertile woman, Xie Yu wouldn't even look at her again.
I haven't been favored much to begin with, and now I'm already impatient.
Lin Junxue looked at the impatience in Xie Yu's eyes and nodded.
"Okay, then these few people will accompany you. Tomorrow, when you pay your respects, I will inform the harem of this matter, so you can make preparations early."
Xie Yu said, "This time when I go south, I will take some time to accompany you to enjoy the scenery of Jiangnan, okay?"
Lin Junxue leaned in Xie Yu's arms with an expression of pretending to be touched.
"it is good"
Lin Junxue remembered what was written in the notes left by the original owner.
Three years after Xie Yu ascended the throne, Chen Xier entered the palace and headed south. Along the way, she watched Xie Yu accompany Chen Xier to travel around the mountains and rivers, enjoying music and revelry every day. The original owner could only shed tears silently and feel sad alone.
