Concubine Lan wore a snow-blue silk saro skirt today, with embroidered sleeves and white qionghua, dotted on the skirt, lining her whole person more and more delicate.

Is this going to be a beauty pageant today? Ye Xuexi looked down at her most ordinary palace clothes, and suddenly became a little overshadowed.

"My sister came over and tasted this tea. Concubine Lan beckoned to her and motioned for her to sit down quickly.

A palace maid has already laid a brocade cushion on her seat, and tea cups and melons have been placed next to her.

"This tea was picked at the beginning of the year, and Miss Zhao still remembers that there was a sudden heavy snowfall at the beginning of this year, and the tea leaves poured out after the snow melted smelled with a trace of cool fragrance. Concubine Lan put the tea on the tip of her nose and sniffed it gently, revealing a satisfied smile.

Ye Xuexi didn't understand tea, but looking at the color of the tea, there was a hint of clarity in the green, and she also knew that it was a good cup of tea.

It can be seen that Niangniang is a good tea person, and this good tea naturally needs to be boiled with good water, and this water must have taken a lot of thought. Zhao Xian just tasted it and could feel the high quality.

Concubine Lan smiled lightly and nodded slowly, "This water is actually nothing special, it is the petal dew that Qingyun took the palace maid to pick in the early morning a few days ago." ”

Well, what kind of petal dew or something like that, it's just a big glass of distilled water.

"My sister doesn't know what tea is, but it makes my sister smile. "The two of them, you said a word, I almost didn't forget Ye Xuexi, if I didn't say anything about my presence, I guess no one would pay attention to her.

"Where, sister, although you are not good at making tea, but my sister heard that my sister is very good at painting, and even our Zhao female official sighed to herself. Concubine Lan put down the teacup in her hand and said in an envious tone.

"Zhaoyi Niangniang's painting is very special, Xia Guan has never seen it, and the painting is vivid after it comes out, I am afraid that there is no second person in this world who can compare to Niangniang. Zhao Xian said with great admiration.

"Oh, is it true?" Concubine Lan seemed to be a little unconvinced, "I have never seen my sister's painting in this palace, but I heard the emperor say that it is very exquisite, and now when I hear Lady Zhao say this, I really want to see what kind of painting can make Lady Zhao admire the unparalleled in the world." ”

Ye Xuexi just smiled, pursed her lips and didn't speak, picked up the tea on the table and took a few sips, and the faint fragrance of tea was in her mouth.

"Since my sister wants to see it, then my sister is ugly. She suddenly put down the tea cup in her hand, a pair of apricot eyes slowly fell on her, turned her head to Taozhi and said, "Go to Suixuan Palace and bring my things." ”

Momozhi answered and slowly retreated.

My sister asked Momozhi to go back and get something, and asked my sister to wait for a while. ”

"It doesn't matter. Concubine Lan smiled and said leisurely.

Momozhi quickly brought her things, even her favorite paper, and a layer of oiled paper was put on the outside to avoid getting wet in the rain.

Ye Xuexi took it, slowly opened the oil paper, and took out the white paper.

Most of the paper used in the palace is rice paper, and a thin layer is not suitable for sketching, and it will be punctured if you are not careful, so she specially ordered her father-in-law who picked paper to get some thicker paper from outside the palace.

"But what kind of flowers and plants do you want to bring for your sister?" Seeing that she was ready, Concubine Lan kindly asked her what she needed.

"No need sister, what my sister wants to draw today is already in front of me. Ye Xuexi shook his head and said.

"Oh, what is it?" asked Concubine Lan suspiciously.

"It's you, sister. Ye Xuexi slowly hooked her lips and smiled faintly.

Concubine Lan was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't react.

"My sister has been taken care of by my sister since she entered the palace, and I haven't had time to thank my sister for her intentions, so I will paint a portrait of my sister as a gift today, I hope my sister doesn't mind. Ye Xuexi blessed her body and showed a grateful expression.

Concubine Lan was hoarse suddenly, her hand holding the tea cup paused in mid-air, and a pair of beautiful eyes stared at her tightly, not knowing whether she was looking at her or what she was looking at.

Ye Xuexi hasn't painted portraits for a long time, when he first learned sketching, most of them were plaster, occasionally painting some vases and crockpots or something, and he only learned sketching for a few days.

But just on the way here, she was still thinking about how to dispel Concubine Lan's suspicion and dissatisfaction at the moment, although she hadn't shown it yet, but the jealousy of a woman's family was often generated in an instant, not to mention, Concubine Lan's father was the prime minister of the dynasty, a high and powerful position, and she was the head of the harem, if she had the heart to deal with herself, she would definitely be unable to resist.

Then the only way is to show her affection, at least don't have a head-on conflict with her until you have the ability to protect yourself, since she just mentioned the matter of painting, it is better to push the boat with the water.

"Mother, give. As soon as she saw that Ye Xuexi had made a mistake in writing, Dong'er immediately handed over a piece of something.

That thing looks like a lump of flesh-colored dough, which is specially made by Ye Xuexi, and the effect is similar to that of an eraser, but the effect is a little worse, but it can barely be used.

"Sister, you don't have to be too nervous, you can move at will, and you can drink tea if you want. When Ye Xuexi looked up, she found that Concubine Lan seemed to be a little nervous, sitting motionless in her chair.

Ye Xuexi didn't actually plan for the original painting at first, so she didn't mind her movements.

When Concubine Lan heard this, she slowly exhaled, took a sip of tea, and talked to Zhao Xian, who seemed to be very nervous on the side.

By the time Ye Xuexi clapped his hands and finished, the topics that these two people should have talked about were almost over.

"My sister is a little handy, and if she doesn't draw well, please don't blame my sister. Ye Xuexi motioned to Dong'er to send the painting to Concubine Lan with her eyes, and Dong'er immediately understood, and presented the painting to Concubine Lan with her hands and feet.

Concubine Lan took the painting, only glanced at it, and was so surprised that she couldn't even speak.

This...... Is this really her?

She couldn't believe her eyes, they were more than paintings, they were mirrors! no, they were even clearer than mirrors!

"My sister's painting is really a masterpiece, and what Lady Zhao said is not wrong at all, this is unparalleled in the world. She held the painting with great satisfaction and praised it endlessly.

"My sister praised it, it's just some carving insect skills, if my sister likes my sister, I can also teach my sister. "Anyway, there are already two people studying now, and one more is nothing.

Come to think of it, in this dynasty, her painting is also a craft, if it weren't for the fear that there will be too many people and disrupt the future, with her current painting skills, opening a school to accept apprentices is nothing, when the disciples are three thousand, I am afraid that the future will be mentioned with Confucius, but what will she call it then?

Leaf......

"Poof. Thinking of his name, Ye Xuexi couldn't help but laugh lightly.

"I'm afraid this palace doesn't have this ability, but this painting is accepted by this palace. Concubine Lan handed the painting to Qingyun, looked at her again and said, "My sister has painted a portrait of the palace all afternoon, this tea is cold, let the palace maid change a new pot for you." ”
