Standing outside Jingren's gate, as the royal car went away, the dignified and decent smile on Concubine Tong's face disappeared in an instant, and her voice was as cold as ice: "The noble person of Guerjia is really coincidental today!!"

Zhao Yan secretly complained: This face has become a little faster, right?!Eldest sister, are you learning Sichuan opera?

Zhao Yan had to explain seriously: "When the concubine returns from Jingyang Palace to Yanxi Palace, she has to pass through the north and south lanes of the East Sixth Palace. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info And when the emperor came to the East Sixth Palace, he naturally had to walk the north-south lane, so that he would meet the emperor by chance. So meeting the emperor today was accidental, but it was also a bit inevitable.

Concubine Tong is not satisfied with this explanation now, she said coldly: "It's just a chance encounter, I hope I won't come back to a chance encounter!!"

Zhao Yan hurriedly said: "Not in the future." When the concubines come back from Jingren Palace in the future, they must not take the north-south lane, but turn around from the edge of the tea warehouse and satin warehouse in the east, so that they will not meet the emperor by chance. ”

Concubine Tong Guifei saw that Zhao Yan said it well, and immediately turned a little pale, "That's good!" She raised her hand and straightened her flag bun, and said lightly: "It's not too early today, and there will be no sister left in this palace." ”

Zhao Yan hurriedly curtsied: "Yes, the concubine has left." With that, he held Bai Tan's hand, and Shi Shiran left. Originally, she wanted to ask what happened to Wu Ya Guiren, but looking at Concubine Tong's face, she simply didn't say more.

Concubine Tong let out a long breath and instructed the eunuch: "This palace remembers that there are not many dragons in the well before the rain, go to the tea warehouse and get two more cans." Although there are not many Longjing before the rain this spring, there should be a surplus of tea storage. ”

"Huh. ”

Zhao Yan listened to these words, and said in her heart, it seems that Kangxi likes Longjing before the rain the most, so Concubine Tong is so attentive to it......

Back at Yanxi Palace, twilight had fallen. Chen Ju, the eunuch beside Concubine Rong, invited her to the main hall for dinner together, Zhao Yan picked up a little, put on a bean green tangled branch shoulder, and went.

There are few concubines in Yanxi Palace, and Concubine Rong calls her and Concubine Zhang Shu to have dinner every once in a while, which can be regarded as lively. Therefore, the dinner is also extraordinarily rich, with chicken, duck and fish, and vegetarian dishes are also exquisite.

Zhao Yan specially brought a pot of pear blossoms, which was a tribute wine specially sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs a few days ago.

It's not interesting to drink alone, so you have to use it at this time. Although there is no amount of alcohol for three more concubines, it is okay to have a drink or two, not to mention that the pear blossoms are white and fragrant, which is a rare wine.

After dinner, the palace maid served tea to relieve her greasy, and Concubine Zhang Shu said curiously: "The noble man seems to have come back after dark, but he was stumped by something outside?"

Concubine Zhang Shu really hit the nail on the head!

Zhao Yan said quietly: "There are indeed a lot of things today. "Every Friday today, the concubines all went to Cining Palace to ask for peace, and Zhao Yan also accompanied Concubine Rong, first there were a lot of rights and wrongs in Cining Palace, leaving Cining Palace, and then meeting Yuan Guiren in the Imperial Garden and touching Porcelain Wei Chang, coming back from Jingyang Palace in the afternoon, and meeting Kangxi again, Shengsheng was dragged by Kangxi to Jingren Palace as a light bulb, and also appreciated how Concubine Tong made an appointment...... With so many things piled up, it was natural to waste a whole day.

Before he had time to talk to Concubine Rong and Concubine Zhang Shu, Chen Ju came in and reported: "Niangniang, the two little masters, Gonggong Li in front of the palace is here." ”

Concubine Rong smiled and said: "Why are the people in front of the palace coming, and the eunuchs in the respectroom are lazy?" - summoning the concubines to sleep is a busy matter in the respectroom, so Concubine Rong is so joking.

Zhao Yan blushed, "Niangniang thinks too much, most likely because the emperor has some orders." ”

Concubine Rong covered her lips and smiled, "Hurry up and call Li Dequan in." It's all this hour, in addition to summoning the attendants, what else can I do?"

Concubine Zhang Shu couldn't help laughing: "The nobles and nouveau riche are favored, and even the concubines feel that Yanxi Palace is a lot more lively." ”

was teased in such turns, Zhao Yan was ashamed of herself.

Li Dequan had already entered the hall with a smile, and hurriedly asked for peace, then pointed to the tin cans held in the arms of the little eunuch behind him and said: "These two cans of dragon wells before the rain were specially rewarded by the emperor to the noble little master." ”

Zhao Yan was stunned for a moment, "Longjing before the rain?" - she was in Jingren Palace, she really liked this tea very much, and drank several cups, but she didn't expect Kangxi to be interested.

Concubine Rong said with a smile: "This palace remembers that there is little rain in Suzhou and Hangzhou this spring, and the best Longjing produced before the rain is much less than in previous years, and the total tribute is twenty catties. "-Such a good tea, except for worshipping the two palaces and rewarding the close relatives of the clan, there is not much left.

Li Dequan smiled and said: "Concubine Rong has a good memory, these two cans are already the last dragon wells before the rain, if you want to drink again, you can only wait for next year." ”

The last two cans?wait, she remembered that Concubine Tong also instructed her to go to the tea warehouse to get the dragon well before the rain, so she hurriedly asked Li Dequan: "Could these two cans of dragon well just be taken from the tea warehouse?" - I hope it was taken directly from the imperial treasury, otherwise-

Li Dequan smiled and nodded: "Back to the nobles, that's exactly the case!"

Zhao Yan's cheeks were a little stiff, Concubine Tong was already tired of her, so she was afraid that she would be even more annoyed.

Alas, why bother for these two pots of tea?!

Li Dequan said again: "In addition, please ask the little master to pick it up, and the sedan chair in the worship room will come to pick up the little master and go to the Qianqing Palace to sleep." ”

It's not in vain to give these two pots of tea together, and you have to sell yourself after a while. What a loss!!

The stomach kept complaining, but there was a gentle smile on his face: "Yes, thank you father-in-law." Hurriedly gestured to Bai Tan for a look. Bai Tan immediately went up to stuff the silver ticket with a heart, "It's hot, my nobleman invites my father-in-law to drink tea." ”

Li Dequan quietly accepted the silver ticket, and his smile became more and more vigorous: "Come on, the slave has left." ”

But in Jingren Palace, it is a different scene.

Xiao Xu, the eunuch of Jingren Palace, stepped forward to report tremblingly: "Your master, the slave is late, the eunuch of the tea warehouse said that the last two cans of Longjing before the rain were taken away by Gonggong Li in front of the emperor. ”

Hearing this, Concubine Tong naturally didn't get angry, she nodded. She sat in front of the dresser, and in the mirror she took off the white jade Fushou Bian Fang on the flag bun.

There was Wu Ya standing next to him, and Wu Ya nobleman smiled: "The emperor likes the dragon well before the rain the most, and it is common to send someone to fetch it." ”

But Concubine Tong suddenly felt suspicious, "No, the dragon well in Qianqing Palace was used up so quickly before the rain?"

Xiao Xu Se shrank and said, "Back to the master, I think it's not used up yet." ”

Concubine Tong couldn't help frowning, her heart jumped, and she suddenly had a bad guess......

Xiao Xu said in a low voice: "And the slave saw with his own eyes that Gonggong Li was holding the last two cans of Longjing before the rain...... went straight to Yanxi Palace. ”

As soon as the words fell, Concubine Tong's face suddenly turned blue, and she could only hear a touch, and the fine white jade bian fang had already fallen to the ground and fell to pieces.
