Chapter 2: Rebirth

My head is dizzy, and my eyelids are so heavy.

Shen Ruojiao exhaled a breath of turbid air and opened her eyes with difficulty.

"Awake?"

Shen Ruojiao had just woken up, and her consciousness was not very clear, and she was startled by this cold voice.

This cold voice is not unfamiliar.

A bright yellow on the side of the bed, showing the identity of the person who came, she slowly raised her eyes, and the person in front of her with a condensed face and looking at her condescendingly was not Bai Zhen and who was it.

But...... Besides, it's a miracle that Bai Zhen will appear here.

Looking around, she was in the dormitory of Hancui Palace.

It's just that her current state is a little embarrassed, with several layers of quilts wrapped around her body, and a stove in the corners of the bed, no wonder she has been feeling hot all over her body since just now.

A strange feeling came to her heart, and Shen Ruojiao finally realized the problem, this scene was clearly the wax moon in her first year in the palace!

She remembered that this time it was because she fell into the water and was sick for a month, and Bai Zhen suddenly came to Hancui Palace to visit her, but she wrapped herself tightly in the outer three layers and the inner three layers, and she didn't even give Bai Zhen a look.

This is the second time she has seen Bai Zhen, and it is also the last time in the past three years, it is estimated that Bai Zhen did not expect that the first beauty of the Qi Dynasty would have such a virtuous character, and she has never been to Hancui Palace again.

Shen Ruojiao wanted to speak, but found that her throat was dry, she turned her head and coughed twice, and a glass of water was handed to her, her movements were too violent, and she almost touched her delicate nose.

She raised her eyes slowly, and the hand holding the cup was slender and beautiful, and the owner of the hand was looking at her indifferently.

"What, do you want me to serve you?" Bai Zhen looked at her arrogantly, without the slightest intention of condescending to the noble.

Shen Ruojiao frowned, calmly took the cup from his hand, drank it in small sips, raised his head slightly, and revealed his thin white neck.

After drinking the water, Shen Ruojiao felt a little alive.

She was still alive, she was actually reborn, and before she could recover from the shocking waves, she heard Bai Zhen snort coldly, and her voice was mocking: "It's okay if you're not dead." ”

The same scene, the same words, she remembered that she didn't react at the beginning, so that Bai Zhen was even more angry.

Although she doesn't understand what the reason for Bai Zhen's anger is, she can't talk back to Bai Zhen, she shouldn't be, she shouldn't be angry again, it's really like a tiger.

After sobering up, in addition to being surprised and happy, Shen Ruojiao was also a little more vigilant.

Her eyes swept towards Bai Zhen unfriendly, the cup in her hand was tightly clenched, she didn't forget that she died from a bowl of poisonous Lantern Festival of unknown origin, and at that juncture, Bai Zhen was about to attack the ministers, if it was to bring down Shen Xiang, it was not impossible to get rid of her first to balance the relationship between the emperor and the prime minister.

Bai Zhen seemed to be aware of it, and asked sternly, "Why do you look at me like this?"

Shen Ruojiao's thoughts were scattered, and this amazing thought was successfully dispelled, it couldn't be Bai Zhen.

Since Bai Zhen came to power, he has acted decisively but clearly, he has played Yang Mou very handy, and he will not use such unpopular means.

The hand holding the water cup loosened a little, Shen Ruojiao lowered her eyes, and said lightly: "The concubine is just terrified, but it was just a minor illness, and it actually alarmed the holy driver." ”

Bai Zhen was silent for a moment.

"The concubine's words are very interesting. At first glance, it sounded like she was praising her, but it was not difficult to hear a thick mockery, Shen Ruojiao did not look up, but she could imagine the consistent sneer on the corner of the person's mouth.

This young king has always been so moody, I don't know which words she said to annoy him, Shen Ruojiao had no choice but to continue to show weakness: "The concubine is stupid." ”

Bai Zhen snorted coldly and said, "It's really stupid." ”

After saying that, he brushed his sleeves and left.

As soon as Bai Zhen left, even the air was a little lighter, and Shen Ruojiao breathed a sigh of relief, it was really fortunate that he didn't have to face this person often in his previous life.

Jiyue, who had been guarding the door, hurriedly trotted to her bed, and while taking the water cup in her hand and putting it aside, she complained in a rebellious whisper: "No matter how much the emperor dislikes you, he shouldn't say something like that, what does it mean to not die, if something happens to the lady, see how he explains to the prime minister!"

Ji Yue was chattering in her ears, but Shen Ruojiao was calming down her shocked mood.

Yes, it's okay if she doesn't die, the bowl of poisonous Lantern Festival didn't end her, then this time it's going to be her to take the initiative, she vaguely remembers that there was another poisoning case in the palace, not long after she recovered from her illness, the one who was killed was a concubine with an ordinary family background, although I don't know whether the poisoning case is related to the poisonous Lantern Festival, but it is always right to eliminate all possibilities.

As soon as he cleared his mind, a palace maid in front of the palace came to say: "Niangniang, Queen Chen is here." ”

Shen Ruojiao's subordinates paused, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a mysterious arc: "Got it." ”

"The masters are all attending the night banquet in Zhaojin Palace", "Send the slave and maid to send this bowl of Lantern Festival over" - this is what the palace maid of the imperial dining room said.

Today's queen Chen Yijin lives in Zhaojin Palace.

came at the right time, in her previous life, she knew very little about the harem, and she never participated in the struggle of the concubine, but she was still involved in murder, she didn't want to enter the game, but someone just used her as a pedal for her progress, this breath, she would never swallow it.

Even if it is a jackal, tiger and leopard, she will not avoid it this time.

The person in the bronze mirror is often dressed in plain clothes, even if the sick face is pale and not powdered, you can also get a glimpse of Shuli's complexion, Shen Ruojiao's eyes are slightly gloomy, and she immediately ordered Jiyue to prepare clothes for her.

According to Shen Ruojiao's low-key habits, she prepared an indigo palace suit and a light step.

Shen Ruojiao glanced at it and said lightly: "It's too plain." ”

Ji Yue was stunned for a moment, and quickly understood, and then someone presented the new crimson flowing color dark gold palace costume in winter, and personally went to the inner hall to take out the treasure box that Shen Ruojiao brought into the palace from the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Shen Ruojiao gathered her sleeves and picked out a pair of red agate and emerald gold from them.

By the time Shen Ruojiao finished cleaning up and walked slowly to the front hall, Empress Chen was already impatient.

As soon as Shen Ruojiao entered the door, Queen Chen was stunned, Shen Ruojiao in her memory has always been pure and elegant, and she has never appeared so dazzlingly.

Thinking about Bai Zhen's visit to Hancui Palace, Queen Chen was angry and decided that Shen Ruojiao had seen Bai Zhen's celestial posture, and she also had the heart to compete for favor.

Empress Chen's face immediately darkened, and she put the tea cup on the table heavily, and with a bang, the tea splashed everywhere, and the palace people in the palace lowered their heads and held their breath, not daring to listen and look at it.

"Queen Mother, what's the matter?" Shen Ruojiao's voice was soft and floating.

The more Empress Chen looked at it, the more upset she felt, and said impatiently: "This palace thought that Shen Guifei was really sick, and she came to care for one or two, but now it seems that Shen Guifei is so radiant, and this palace is self-inflicted." ”

Shen Ruojiao smiled lightly: "Long Yan Feng is in front, Ruojiao doesn't dare to slack off." ”

Empress Chen glared at her angrily and snorted coldly, "Sharp teeth." ”

How can she not be angry, she has been in the harem for many years, and she has never been choked like this, and now after the emperor's draft, the new concubine led by Liu Guifei will embarrass her everywhere, but the emperor never cares about these things, no matter how she makes trouble, the emperor only coldly says a word to deal with himself.

She thought that Shen Ruojiao was different, she rarely showed up after entering the palace, and she was extremely low-key, but she didn't expect the fox's tail to be revealed so quickly.
