Chapter 14: Behold, You Have Ghosts
The other immediately chimed in: "I think the fourth princess didn't come to see the play today, so she must have been studying well in the palace?"
"Yes," Concubine Xi nodded, her face was full of spring, like a blooming peony flower, "Cheng Yao has been the most sensible one since she was a child, and Wen Shu was late at night last night, and the palace was afraid that her body would not be able to bear it, so she asked her to go to bed early, but she refused, saying that her father was very loving, so naturally she couldn't let her father and teacher down."

Another concubine was not to be left behind, and said: "I remember that when the hibiscus was in full bloom last year, a poetry meeting was held in the palace, and the princess sang a poem 'Countless wood hibiscus by the water, ice and jade run natural color, persuade the king to fold the hibiscus branch lightly, and a piece of heart is in the jade pot." 'The most outstanding, especially the sentence 'Bing Ming Jade Run Natural Color' is really well written, and it is natural for the four princesses to come to the top of the examination again this time. ”
Of course, this sentence of Bing Ming Yurun's natural color is good, just because this is from the hand of the former dynasty poet Fan Chengda, Mu Chengyao actually copied it without changing it, she is ashamed, don't everyone read poetry books?
Others are just that, but the father is full of poetry and ancient books, and he should know where this poem comes from, in the face of the praise in the palace, I am afraid that the father is deliberately not broken, and by the way, you can also see who the people in this palace blindly support Concubine Xi.
I don't know who said more: "Speaking of this hibiscus flower, I thought that the peonies are blooming in spring, I heard that earlier, the fifth princess invited Ma Cainu to Jinglan Palace to enjoy the flowers, Ma Cainu also hugged a big handful when she left, although the flowers in this imperial garden are good, but the most beautiful and best words in this palace are still in Jinglan Palace, how can the five princesses only invite Ma Cainu alone, don't invite all of us?"
The best flowers in the palace are in Jinglan Palace? Mu Chenghuang smiled lightly when he heard this, what are you kidding, are the best flowers in Dashun in Jinglan Palace?
The mother concubine loves flowers and is obsessed, this flower is sent from everywhere, and the flowers are not picked varieties, do not choose the precious high, there are both peony Wei Zi, there is also the moon season parade, when it comes to the flowering period, this palace is full of flowers, the fragrance of flowers is overflowing.
At this time, whether it is close or far, I can't help but come over to ask for two flowers, the mother concubine is kind-hearted, can't bear to refuse, always say that this good flower should be appreciated by everyone, but those who don't understand flowers want to go, and they always die in two days, that is, Tian shamelessly comes to ask again, since Mu Chenghuang took over the flowers in the palace half a year ago, but it is not so easy to speak.
The other people in the harem also know that Mu Chenghuang's temperament is not as gentle as Concubine Ru, and there are fewer people who want to spend flowers, but there are always two cheeky ones, every time they come, they are empty-handed, and Mu Chenghuang will not say something unpleasant, but no matter how tactful he is, he is unwilling to release a flower.
Some red-eyed people said that these five princesses guarded this group of flowers until they withered, and in the end they had to spend effort cleaning up.
Mu Chenghuang didn't think so, they really didn't know themselves, this osmanthus can make wine and make cakes, roses can be dried to make tea, and Yueji can be used as stuffing, where will it be wasted.
"That's right," Concubine Xi said slowly, "This palace doesn't know, it turns out that this Ma Cainu and Cheng Huang have any personal relationship." ”
Another shrill voice said, "How can I still hear that on that day, it was this Ma Cai girl who pushed the fifth princess to let the fifth princess be kidnapped by the assassin?"
"Who did Deng Jieyu listen to?" Mu Chenghuang turned his head and looked at the concubine who said this lightly.
Deng Jieyu is not too young, she is moody on weekdays, she is sentimental at every turn, she looks ten years older than her actual age, she stared at Mu Chenghuang, and said hesitantly: "Listen...... I heard that you pass on to me and I pass on yours, who knows who said this in the first place. ”
"Oh, since you can't even figure out the source, it's naturally not credible, isn't it?" Mu Chenghuang's tone was still light, but there was always an indescribable cold taste flowing out of her eyes, you said that she was scheming and scheming, but she smiled brightly like a scheming girl, saying that she was young, but this confident and calm attitude made Concubine Xi more and more unpleasant.
"It's not a personal relationship. Mu Chenghuang said while pinching the splendid hibiscus cake on the table, "It's just that Ma Cainu has a heart, knows that my arm is bad, and wants to come to see me, but because of the rumors in this palace, I am afraid that people will say that she is guilty, so I simply invited her to come." ”
Speaking of which, after Mu Chenghuang was injured, there were very few people who came to visit her, except for those who sent a palace maid to Jinglan Palace at random, only the eldest princess and Tang Baolin, who had a good relationship with Concubine Ru before, came in person.
"The fifth princess is not afraid, that day it was really Ma Cainu who had bad intentions and pushed the fifth princess into danger? Deng Jieyu said impatiently.
"Although Ma Cainu was behind me that day, I knew that it was not Ma Cainu who pushed me that day," Mu Chenghuang smiled brightly, "Jieyu Niangniang is really concerned about Chenghuang, instead of letting Jieyu Niangniang worry about whether Ma Cainu is intentionally harming me, it is better for Jieyu Niangniang to return the jade banbai that she wanted to go from her mother's hand before, so that Chenghuang can recuperate comfortably." ”
