Mama Zhen said meaningfully: "The people in this palace must learn to endure hardships first. It's hard to come and go!"

Lan Xin said with a smile: "When I ate it for the first time, I felt that the grapes were almost sour. However, the second time I ate it, I found it unpalatable, but it was a little better than before. Perhaps, when you eat this kind of grape in the future, you can slowly accept it. ”

"Hehe!" Mama Zhen smiled bitterly and said helplessly, "Yes, everyone is used to it slowly like this. ”

Hongxuan folded the cotton cloth carefully, and asked with a smile, "So, Mama would want to plant a row of sweet grapes in her yard?"

"Yes!" said Mama Jane, nodding, "I have always had an obsession, that is, no matter how small the small yard I live in, I must plant a row of sweet grapes. If it weren't for the county master, the old slave wouldn't have this opportunity. ”

Lan Xin smiled and said, "If there is no grandma, I'm afraid I'm going to make a fool of myself today." Lan Xin understands that Mama Zhen is by her side, although she is only in charge of some trivial matters in the house, but it is a kind of moisturizing and silent help to her.

"The county lord has overdone it. Mama Jane said with a genuine smile. People's hearts are flesh and blood, and although they do not ask for the gratitude of the other party, if they are understood, they are naturally very happy.

After drying her hair, Hongxuan found a pink ribbon and tied the green silk behind her head.

Lan Xin sat up and motioned for Mama Zhen not to knock. Picked up the teapot on the table, turned over the cup, and poured three cups of tea. He pushed the other two glasses in front of the two of them, picked up one himself, and took a sip gently.

Mama Zhen looked at Lan Xin's cautious appearance, and joked with a smile: "Crystal grapes are so precious that they will not be used to make tea." ”

After Lan Xin put down the teacup, he chuckled: "The things in the palace, except for the crystal grapes, are not bad." For example, I like the snacks I ate in Changle Palace. And the pine needles dew ······"

"Pine needle dew?" Mama Zhen interrupted Lan Xin's words in surprise, "The county lord said that you still drank pine needle dew in Changle Palace?"

"That's right~" Lan Xin nodded and said, "If it weren't for the emperor's order, I wouldn't have known that the sweet thing in that cup turned out to be pine needle dew." ”

"The emperor ······ to the county lord It's too good to say. Mama Zhen hesitated for a moment, lowered her voice and continued, "The people in this palace, although they all like to praise high and low. However, there are also many people who secretly stumble and watch the fire from the other side. ”

Lan Xin said with a smile: "I understand what Mama said. However, I, the county lord of the prince's mansion with a different surname, have no conflict of interest with them. ”

Mama Zhen knew that Lan Xin was referring to the matter of seizing the heir. She admitted that Lan Xin said what she said, but she still couldn't help but remind: "But the county lord still shouldn't be careless." ”

Lan Xin nodded and said, "I understand what Mama said. As long as the three of us are cautious, we don't meddle in our affairs. I will definitely leave the palace safely. Her voice changed and continued, "By the way, Mama, when I was in Changle Palace, the emperor asked Marquis Anping to go to Huzhou to build the ancestral hall of the Jade Palace. What's so important about this ancestral hall?"

An ancestral hall, even if it is the ancestral hall of the royal palace, sends a dignified marquis to supervise the work. I'm afraid it's not just as simple as building an ancestral hall.

Mama Zhen rolled her eyes, groaned for a while, and said, "The ancestral hall of the palace naturally has the specifications of the palace. With the Marquis of Anping rushing over, the county lord doesn't have to worry. ”

Lan Xin smiled and nodded, "This, I'm not worried." Looking at the flash of light in Mama Zhen's eyes just now, I knew that letting Anping Hou build the ancestral hall was just a pretense.

In the Queen Mother's bedroom.

The Queen Mother changed into a regular dress, removed the hairpin ring on her head, and pinned her hair behind her head with only a hosta. Leaning on the soft couch, he put a crystal grape in his mouth, and gently bit it open, and a sour juice spread, filling the entire mouth.

But the Queen Mother didn't care at all, and slowly swallowed the juice in her mouth with great enjoyment, chewed the flesh carefully, and swallowed it all into her stomach.

"Hehe!" the Queen Mother Lafayette suddenly let out a happy laugh.

Sitting on the brocade next to the soft couch, holding a beauty hammer, the queen mother was beating her stiff and numb legs for the queen mother. Raising his head, he smiled and asked, "What is the Queen Mother laughing at?"

The Queen Mother Lafayette laughed and said: "The mourning family suddenly remembered that girl from Lan Xin, obviously she couldn't get used to eating this crystal grape, but in order not to be rude, she had to swallow it hard." Hehe, thinking about her appearance, the mourning family thinks it's funny. ”

"Hehe!" the queen said with a smile, "Lord Lanxin just doesn't have the habit of eating, and he will ······ in the future." After thinking about it, Lan Xin was going to leave the palace sooner or later. After leaving the palace, there is no need to eat this sour crystal grape anymore.

The Queen Mother Lafayette glanced at it, and the queen's eyes flashed gloom. Slowly retracted the smile on his face, turned his eyes to look at the newly picked and bright red camellia in the blue and white porcelain plum vase on the high table, and asked in a deep voice, "Are you blaming the mourning family?"

"Ah!" the queen mother exclaimed, hurriedly put down the beauty hammer in her hand, knelt on the ground respectfully, her head fell to the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "The concubine does not dare." ”

The queen's mother, Xu, can also be regarded as a scholarly family. Her ancestors once had three prime ministers. The people of the capital used a three-phase to describe the nobility of the Xu family. Maybe the luck of the ancestors was used up all of a sudden, and when it came to the generation of the Xu family's great-grandfather, the children of the Xu family were all mediocre in qualifications.

The great-grandfather remembered the prophecy of the clan that "the great will rise and fall". Unwilling to let the Xu family decline day by day, there is nothing they can do.

After some thought, he finally came up with a solution, that is, to let the girls in the clan also study with the class. Who knows which clouds will rain? Maybe there will be a queen of the world in the Xu family?

The harem is the front hall! If there is a virtuous queen who helps the inside, will the emperor promote the children of the Xu family? If the queen gives birth to a prince with high qualifications, she will inherit the throne in the future. Tsk, who would dare to shake the status of the Xu family?!

Therefore, in addition to learning the Four Books and Five Classics, the girls of the Xu family also have to learn embroidery and etiquette······ In short, he has learned more than those men, and he is more demanding.

Perhaps it was the voice of this great-grandfather that was heard by God, and the first time the Xu family entered the palace, he was taken by Concubine Liu at that time.
