Chapter 98: Privately
"Suihua," Concubine Zhou Shu suddenly sighed softly, called her maiden name, and interrupted what she said, "You are still young, and you still don't know the sinister in the palace." I never fight with them for anything, and I don't have anything to grab. I am no longer youthful, it's just that the emperor misses the old feelings, which is what I am today, but you are different. ”
Sui Hua'an quietly looked at Concubine Shu's hand on her lap.
Painted in pale pink color, with long fingers, well-maintained and not at all like a woman of this age.
Hearing Concubine Shu call her name, she looked up and frowned slightly, "What does Niangniang mean?"
"It's not a good thing for you to be in such a big limelight when you first entered the palace - taking advantage of the Shen family's loss of power, you have just entered the palace, and the most important thing for you at the moment is to capture the emperor's heart, not to run to me, the palace concubine who has long been forgotten by everyone, to show your loyalty. ”
Sui Hua nodded obediently, smiled and said softly: "Thank you for your advice." ”
Immediately sent the embroidered fan cover, "I am not good at learning, but the embroiderer can still handle it - don't dislike it." ”
But my heart blossomed with joy.
It's rare for Concubine Shu to be able to call her like this, isn't it a gesture of goodwill?
Concubine Zhou Shufei glanced at the fan cover, the red moire satin was embroidered with green bamboo, and the small fan cover was exquisitely laid out and the embroidery was meticulous, and at a glance she knew that it was not ordinary.
Dark, moire, bamboo.
The most suitable person for this fan cover is still the emperor.
Concubine Shu took it with a chuckle and said, "Embroidery hurts her eyes, Hua Jieyu should do less in the future." ”
If you do more, it will be worthless, and those who carry it will not feel too cherished.
In Jiamutang, I used a bowl of tribute rice porridge and a few pieces of jujube paste yam cake, and Hui Zhi, who returned to the Yuhua Pavilion, and Jiang Caiqiong, who had been staying in the courtyard, chatted about the scene of Suihua in the palace.
Hui Zhi's tone was not without worry: "The third sister has just entered the palace, and it is still strange that she can't get along with Shen Guifei like this." ”
"When the third girl didn't usually enter the palace, she was the most decent and sensible person in the Hou Mansion, if she didn't have full confidence and other people's suggestions, I'm afraid she wouldn't do such a showy thing. Don't worry too much. The front of the harem moved the whole body, what's the matter, isn't there still a Hou Ye?"
Jiang Caiqiong comforted her.
But I thought in my heart, the little junior sister is only so old, and she thinks about these things all day long, which is not a good thing, and she has to find a chance to talk to her uncle.
Hui Zhi nodded.
Jiang Caiqiong got up and looked around the room.
With Fang and Ah Man in the east wing of the Yuhua Pavilion to change the curtain bed curtain, Pei Lan went to order the dishes for lunch, outside the door stood two little girls with curtains guarding the door, and under the verandah in the courtyard sat a few little girls who had just watered the flowers and plants in the corridor, but only she and Hui Zhi were left in the house.
Hui Zhi looked at her appearance and felt a little strange, and couldn't help asking, "But what's wrong? You are so nervous?"
Jiang Caiqiong was a little hesitant in her words: "I received a letter from Senior Brother Pei in the morning, and I don't know how to tell you." ”
"Is something going on? But what's important?"
Hui Zhi asked rhetorically with a frown.
"The method commonly used when walking the rivers and lakes was used, and a note came in. It seemed that it should be very important, but he didn't say what it was...... Just to say...... Just saying"
Jiang Caiqiong's tone became more and more hesitant.
"Just what?"
Hui Zhi looked at her and said strangely: "What do you mean? What's the matter?"
"What he means is to ask me to help tonight, to accompany you, to get away from the girl next to you, he has something to say to you personally--"
Meet in private?
After listening to this, Hui Zhi took a sip of water in her throat, couldn't spit it out or swallowed, and her throat suddenly itched as if she had been scratched.
Holding a breath in her throat, Jiang Caiqiong was in a hurry, and was about to pat her on the back to help her breathe, but Hui Zhi coughed anxiously.
Pei Lan, who had just walked back to the door of the Yuhua Pavilion from the kitchen to order the menu, hurriedly walked in when she heard the sound in the room, and asked repeatedly, "What's wrong with the girl? Why do you cough like this? Does it matter? Do you want to ask for a doctor?"
"No cough cough... It's okay, Mrs. Jiang told a joke, and I was drinking saliva. ”
Hui Zhi reached out and took a sip of a cup of tea, and said smoothly, "Unfortunately, I choked." You go and make a pot of honey tea, and I'll moisten my throat. ”
Looking at Pei Lan's nervous face again, he laughed out loud: "What doctor do you invite? Isn't Mrs. Jiang right in front of me? Where do you need to go out and ask for any doctor?"
Pei Lan couldn't help laughing too, nodded his head in agreement, and quickly turned around and went out to look for honey.
Hui Zhi took another sip of tea, and only in one breath did she completely calm down, and asked Jiang Caiqiong: "What does this mean? What do you say, can't you arrange to meet outside? Do you have to run to the house in the middle of the night?"
It's just nonsense.
Jiang Caiqiong saw her looking a little angry, so she explained: "Some time ago, the wind was tight, and all forces were keeping an eye on you, so you naturally know the reason. Now that the two of you are engaged again, unless someone in the capital has a banquet and invites you at the same time, otherwise, it is better for you to avoid suspicion. A few days ago, you went out with me to the pharmacy, which is not very appropriate. If you go somewhere, you can't be sure that you won't be discovered?"
It sounds like there's some truth to that.
Jiang Caiqiong saw that she listened and continued: "Most of the guards in the mansion are in the outer courtyard, and the guards in the inner courtyard are mostly the secret guards that your father picked out from the Silent Valley. Senior Brother Pei is not only an apprentice of Silent Valley, but also has the White Tiger Guard in his hands, even if these guards don't know who he is, no matter what, they still know the White Tiger Jade Pendant, and it is safer than the outside-since he dares to come to see you in the middle of the night, he naturally has a reason to see you privately, I accompany you, you can always rest assured, right?"
Hui Zhi's heart is the same.
No matter how strong his martial arts are, he will inevitably be discovered by the secret guards in the house, if the secret guards sue his father, if he has no valid reason, how can he enter and leave the woman's house at will?
It's too daring.
Thinking about it like this, he let go of his worries and reluctantly relented: "If it's not something important, see if I don't complain to my father!"
Pei Gu, who was far away in the Wuwei Houfu Listening Wind Hall, sneezed inexplicably.
He was thinking, how could he sneak into the warm courtyard and not be discovered by the surrounding secret guards?
The backyard secret guards have high martial arts, and the guards are changed frequently, and Jiang Caiqiong has not been able to find any way.
But that's right, Cheng'an Hou Qin Weien is a powerful disciple of the old valley master of Wuyin Valley, and he is also very proficient in the art of Qimen Dunjia, I'm afraid that the courtyard of Cheng'an Hou Mansion that he sees from the top down at night may be some kind of strange formation.
It's a real headache.
In case Uncle Shi finds out about this, what is the reason for him to say?
