"Yes, master. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info" Liuli continued: "The slave maid estimated that the masters in each palace would send some things over today, and now even Mama is receiving gifts in the main hall. Master, do you want to accept all those gifts?"

"Whoever sent it, take it. You and Mama should remember to find some things from the treasury of the palace tomorrow and send them back one by one, so as not to lose the courtesy. ”

"Yes. ”

……

"Master, these are the things sent by the other masters in the palace, and they are all placed here. Seeing Su Zixu walking to the main hall, Mama Lian stopped what she was doing and said.

Su Zixu glanced at the piles of gifts in the main hall, and said with a light smile: "Mama has worked hard. ”

"These are the things that a slave and a maid should do. Even Mama handed Su Zixu an account book, and replied with a smile: "Which things were sent from which palace, the slaves and maids have all memorized them, and the master will take a look." ”

Su Zixu took it, looked at the records on it, smiled, and said, "Mama remembers the bookkeeping well." ”

There is a clear list of gifts sent by those concubines in the palace, and it is clear which person has given what in the past.

"The next thing is to continue to bother Mama and think more about it. Su Zixu said while looking through the ledger.

Seeing the things sent by Empress Liu and Concubine Qi, he frowned slightly and asked, "Are you not mistaken, are these things?"

Mama Lian shook her head and replied: "Don't worry, master, the old slave has checked it several times, and he is not mistaken." Noticing Su Zixu's strange expression, he asked suspiciously, "Master, is there something wrong with these things?"

"Where are the things from the queen mother and Concubine Qi?" Su Zixu didn't answer, glanced at the gifts, and asked.

"Master, over there, does the master want to see it?" Mama Lian stretched out her hand and pointed to a table in the main hall, and said, "The things given by the queen mother and the old slave of Qi Guifei separated them. ”

The queen and Concubine Qi are the two people with the highest positions in the palace, and the things they send are not only different from others, but also have different meanings, and they can't be sloppy at all about what they send. If you accidentally offend the two of them, it will be bad for the master.

"Hongu went over and took a look. After Su Zixu finished speaking, he walked over with Mama Lian.

After looking at those things, Su Zixu's face sank.

"Master, what's wrong with these things?" Mama Lian was very puzzled, why did the master's face turn wrong after seeing these things, and then explained: "The things sent by the queen mother this time are very different from those sent to other palaces before, and the slave maid looks at them quite practical and unique." ”

After speaking, Mama Lian flipped through those things, took out a bag of tea leaves, put it in her hand, showed it to Su Zixu, and said: "Master, look at it, these tea leaves are newly paid tribute hot tea, which is very rare, and there are only Queen Mother and Qi Guifei in the entire harem, as well as Concubine Shen's palace." ”

"Master, take a look at it again, this pair of embroidered shoes is made by the most famous Huashi embroidery workshop in the capital, and the needlework on them is all made of gold, and the workmanship is very dexterous. And the peony pattern on this shoe is made of silk. I heard that every pair of embroidered shoes in Hua's embroidery workshop takes two or three months to make. ”

"So these things from the queen are very valuable. ”

Su Zixu was silent for a while before he said, "Mama, think about it carefully, what is the difference between this hot tea and this pair of shoes." ”

After Mama Lian heard it, she looked at Su Zixu's appearance as if she was smiling but not smiling, and looked at those things again suspiciously. After a while, he shook his head and said, "Master, forgive the old slave for being stupid, the old slave can't see the difference between these things for the time being. ”

"Before entering the palace, I had been living in seclusion in the mountains and forests with my grandfather, and I had little contact with the outside world, and I knew very little about tea, but I had also heard of this hot tea. Hongu's maternal grandfather used to be the favorite of this hot tea, and every year at this time of year, he would spend a lot of money to find some hot tea to taste back. ”

"Hongu, I was lucky enough to drink some. This hot tea, as its name suggests, because this tea is like a flame burning in the mouth when it is just in the mouth, after drinking the tea completely, it is a completely different scene from when you just drink it, and the tea drinker only feels that the mouth is refreshing and sweet, delicious and comfortable. But the most taboo thing about this tea is to speak while drinking, because it will hurt your throat when you open your mouth. ”

Su Zixu picked up the embroidered shoes again and said, "Look at these embroidered shoes again, there is one more difference from other embroidered shoes, that is, its heel is particularly high, and the shoes are small, so you must be very careful when walking, otherwise it is easy to trip." ”

"The queen mother gave these two things to the palace at the same time, think about it, what does she want to tell the palace?"

"What Niangniang means is that the Queen Mother is warning you to be cautious in your words and deeds in the palace. Hearing Su Zixu say this, Liuli immediately reacted and asked.

"Not bad. Su Zixu smiled and said: "If you don't think about it carefully, you can't think of the extraneous meaning of the queen mother sending these things, but combining these two things and considering it, this is the truth." ”

Su Zixu would not be stupid to think that Queen Liu gave herself these things on a whim, she has seen no less than ten palace fighting dramas in modern times, as well as palace fighting novels, and there are countless palace fighting novels, and some small tricks of the harem concubines are sometimes known at a glance.

Generally, the concubines in the palace have been promoted, as long as they are not the queen's people, the things sent by the queen will imply a warning. Even if it is the queen's person, it is inevitable that the queen will be wary of it.

The queen, but the most scheming person in the harem, otherwise, she would not have climbed to that position.

This time he was promoted to the seal was unexpected, and he crossed many levels in a row, and there will definitely be a slight amount of words in the harem.

The queen is one of them.

"Master, these things. Mama Lian pointed to the things sent by Queen Liu and said.

If the queen really has a deep meaning in sending these things to the master, then the master has to be more cautious.

"Keep the shoes well, as for the hot tea, I'll brew it for the palace tomorrow. ”

Although Queen Liu gave herself these things with other meanings, she couldn't live up to her kindness.

What's more, she has never heard of this tea in modern times, let alone seen it. It is estimated that only this dynasty that does not exist in history has appeared in this tea, and its taste is very unique, and it cannot be wasted.

"Yes, master. Lian Mama sighed and said, "The master is promoted this time, I'm afraid Yiranju will not be at peace for a few days." ”

"By the way, what did Concubine Qi send?" Su Zixu continued to ask.
