Return of the Swallow

Qin Yining frowned slightly when he saw this, lowered his head and saluted to cover up the emotions he had inadvertently revealed.

Although the beauty's salute was as gentle as a dance, strictly speaking, her posture was extremely arrogant and her behavior was perfunctory. She made no secret of the queen's contempt. Even before the queen could speak, the queen had already stood up on her own, twisting her slender buttocks. With her waist and skirt gathered up and a bright red cloak, she walked over.

Qin Yining and the other maids stood up. As they were standing next to the queen, the visitor's bright red cloak came into view as they approached.

The bright red is the brightest red, and according to the rules of the Zhou Dynasty, only the wife of the first wife can wear it. Could this be the new female concubine of some minister's family?

The Queen's face was calm and her voice was still gentle as she introduced to Qin Yining, "This is Concubine Yun. The Queen Mother's niece."

Qin Yining's brows raised slightly.

Concubine Yun, a concubine, dare to wear red in the palace?

You know, in this palace, apart from the foreign wives who come to greet you, only the queen is qualified to wear this color.

Isn't this a clear provocation?

Because she is the niece of the Queen Mother, is she unscrupulous? If that were the case, Concubine Yun would have nothing to fear. Acting so erratically without knowing how to be cautious and leaving no escape route for oneself can only be done by a person without a brain.

"It turns out to be Concubine Yun. I would like to pay my respects to you." Qin Yining did not look at the naturally charming beauty, but knelt down and saluted.

Concubine Yun glanced sideways at Qin Yining. When she saw Qin Yining's appearance and demeanor clearly, she immediately pursed her lips in displeasure, feeling a strong crisis.

When the Queen saw Concubine Yun's appearance, she knew what she was doing and hurriedly introduced her: "Sister Concubine Yun entered the palace late, maybe you don't know Princess Zhongshun? This is Princess Zhongshun, who just returned to Beijing from the south."

Upon hearing that this woman was a princess, Concubine Yun was half relieved. She curled her lips contemptuously and raised her hand to hold her temples. But what is a little princess? Her man is the current emperor!

Concubine Yun ignored Qin Yining and said softly and mockingly: "The Queen is really busy with things, and it's so late to pay her respects now. Is she disrespectful to the Queen Mother? Don't you want to be filial?"

Qin Yining stood to one side and looked at this person without any trace. His sense of Concubine Yun was extremely bad, but she was just a foreigner, and she had no role to interrupt at this time.

The Queen smiled with a very good temper and said: "It's not too late at this hour. The Queen Mother may have just gotten up. Since we met, let's go together."

Concubine Yun curled her lips. Even with such a disrespectful and rude expression, Concubine Yun's face still gave people a somewhat charming and charming look.

"The Queen is really good at asking for trouble. If I want to go, I have to go first, then the Queen. Otherwise, the Queen Mother will think that we are here together."

So presumptuous! ?

Qin Yining frowned lightly, and his eyes became more profound when he looked at Concubine Yun.

Concubine Yun has been beautiful since she was a child, and she has been used to being looked at by others. However, after entering the palace, because of the Queen Mother's partiality and the Holy Emperor's love for her, no one has dared to do this in front of her for a long time. He stared at her "unbridledly".

Concubine Yun looked at Qin Yining with a sneer.

I saw her wearing a red short coat with arrow sleeves, an eight-panel skirt with white embroidery, a snow-white fox armpit cloak, and holding an exquisite small brass heater. Her whole person was as delicate and beautiful as the person in the painting, Concubine Yun's The smile became a little colder.

"You slave,

How dare you stare at me! I haven't punished you for being negligent in saluting just now, but now you are bumping into me! Why, relying on the Queen to like you, do you dare to ignore the rules of the palace and do whatever you want in front of the Queen Mother's palace? "

Qin Yining's calm face finally showed some fluctuations. She looked at Concubine Yun coldly with bright almond eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything, and said without being humble or arrogant: "Concubine Yun better control her temper."

"What did you say?" Concubine Yun's eyes widened and her voice rose. She didn't expect Qin Yining to say such a sentence.

"You, who do you think you are! How dare you accuse me, a mere maid! Do you really think that you can despise me with the queen's support?"

Qin Yining said lightly: "It's ridiculous for Concubine Yun to talk about the palace rules. If you really understand the rules of the White House, then may I ask what's going on with the cloak that Concubine Yun is wearing? The queen is the direct wife of the Holy Emperor. In this palace, Apart from the married women, only the queen has the qualification to wear red. Concubine Yun is defying the palace rules and disrespecting the queen, so what crime should she deserve!"

Concubine Yun was so angry that her pretty face turned red. She looked down at her red cloak, moved her lips, and said after a while: "Even the Queen Mother and the Empress haven't said that I shouldn't wear this cloak. You are the only one?" You bitch, why are you blaming me!" Turning his eyes, he saw Qin Yining's little jacket and mocked, "Look at yourself again, you said I shouldn't wear red, but you haven't worn it yourself!"

Qin Yining smiled sarcastically: "My wife is the concubine married by Prince Zhongshun Ming Yuan. May I ask who you are?"

"You! Presumptuous! How dare you speak to me like this! Someone, get this presumptuous slave out of me!"

"Presumptuous? I am a royal concubine of the highest rank personally conferred by the Holy Emperor. May I ask what rank you are? You keep calling me 'servant' and 'slave'. I would like to ask, if you are like this Is it possible that such a high-ranking wife is just a slave in your eyes? My wife and Prince Zhongshun are one and the same. If my wife is a slave, what will happen to Prince Zhongshun? You are considerate of your subordinates, but when you come here, you are unscrupulous You are belittling your subordinates, I dare to ask, who gave you the courage!"

"Presumptuous! Presumptuous! You are the one who has the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard. How dare you be powerless against me! Come here, give her a hundred punishments with my staff! Beat her out! Beat her out!"

The maids behind Concubine Yun looked at each other and wanted to step forward hesitantly.

"Let's see who dares." Qin Yining straightened his back and swept his cold eyes over those people.

The palace maids paused and did not dare to move.

"The Queen is kind, filial, and courteous to Concubine Yun. However, Concubine Yun is spoiled and overbearing. She is just a concubine, but she dares to go beyond the rules of the palace! She even dares to yell in front of the Queen. The Queen has not said anything yet, But you, as a concubine, dare to try to deal with a super-first-class princess, dare to ask Concubine Yun, who gave you this strength, and who gave you this courage?"

"You, you..." Concubine Yun panted and pointed at Qin Yining.

She is the emperor's woman, Qin Yining is just the prince's woman. In her heart, she is much nobler than Qin Yining. She never expected that Qin Yining would embarrass her like this in person!

In front of so many palace people, this matter may spread throughout the palace in the blink of an eye. How will she behave in the future? !

Concubine Yun's pretty face turned red with anger, and she started to sob.

Qin Yining saw that Concubine Yun was the kind of person who would act recklessly even if she couldn't explain it. She looked at the Queen on the side speechlessly, saluted and said respectfully: "Queen, I think it's better for Concubine Yun to follow me and learn the rules from my grandma." Etiquette, I can’t even tell the difference between palace rules and superiority. If a Tatar princess and her entourage come and meet her face to face, I’m afraid it will make the Tatar people laugh?”

The queen felt so happy at this time that she had never thought before. She never expected that Qin Yining would deal with Concubine Yun so happily in front of her.

This is also Yun Fei's stupidity. Qin Yining's father is the Minister of Rites, Qin Huaiyuan, who is known as Zhi Pan'an, and her husband is Prince Zhongshun Pang Xiao, a distinguished scholar of Wuying Palace and Marshal of Pingnan. She is not simple herself, she is also a member of the Qingtian League. The current leader of the alliance, she helped the Holy Emperor retake the palace, and even the Holy Emperor treated her as an official.

Faced with such a superb wife, Concubine Yun herself was not upright and dared to act provocatively. It was strange that Qin Yining would let her go.

The queen nodded happily and said with a smile: "That's what you said. Sister Yun Fei is smart. She probably doesn't know the rules of the palace very well because she hasn't been in the palace for a long time. It will be easy to study more with grandma later. Yes."

Concubine Yun gritted her teeth and stared at Qin Yining with tearful eyes.

If Qin Yining hadn't humiliated her like that, why would she have needed to be so humiliated by the Queen!

Although Qin Yining doesn't want to cause trouble, she will definitely not be afraid of trouble if someone is really looking for trouble in front of her. Concubine Yun stared at her like this, so she simply looked back openly.

"Didn't Concubine Yun hear the Queen's instructions?"

"Don't be so proud!" Concubine Yun gritted her teeth, looked at the queen angrily, and said angrily, "Concubine, you respect your order!"

"Well," the queen said with a smile, "in that case, please ask Sister Yun Fei to correct the things that are inconsistent with the palace rules first."

What's the meaning?

The irregularity, isn't it the cloak on her body?

Does the correction mean asking her to take off her cloak in front of everyone?

Concubine Yun looked at the Queen in disbelief, with tears in her eyes. The look when the tears were about to fall was really pitiful to me.

If her cloak was really taken off here today, how could she still walk in the palace in the future?

"The Queen is like this, have you ever considered concubines? Have you ever considered the feelings of your Majesty and the Queen Mother?"

The Queen frowned, thinking of the Queen Mother and Li Qitian, the happy and comfortable feeling in her heart was immediately replaced by depression, and she felt discouraged and lazy again.

What else is there to do in her life? It doesn't make any sense to her to be so pointed at Maimang.

Seeing that the queen, who was full of energy just now, suddenly became sluggish after just one word, Qin Yining understood that the queen must have a knot in her heart.

The queen said calmly: "Tomorrow Concubine Yun will come to Kunning Palace to learn the rules. Grandma Sun."

"My servant is here." A woman in her forties stood up behind the queen.

"Go to Concubine Yun's palace to get a decent cloak and serve Concubine Yun to change."

"yes."

Grandma Sun saluted and left quickly.

Concubine Yun bit her lip and shed tears. No matter how much she thought about it, she felt that she could not bear this loss. She glanced at Ci'an Palace not far away, simply shook off the hand of the palace maid beside her who was supporting her, lifted up her skirt and went to the Queen Mother's Palace. He ran away and shouted: "Cousin aunt, cousin! You have to make the decision for Yun'er!"
