The snow is falling, and the world outside the glass window seems to have become a white expanse. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 There is a fire in the Info Warm Pavilion, and a porcelain teapot rests on the shelf above, and the wisps of heat rising from the spout of the hot air make the whole Warm Pavilion moist and form a thin mist on the glazed windows.

Su Wanqing picked up the tea cup with celadon printing on the small side and tasted it, and immediately the fragrance was full of fragrance, and when he was about to taste it, the palace maid who was waiting next to Min Ji walked in and gave her ear, and then mysteriously retreated.

"Juan Ling is going to Xianfu Palace again, Sister Jia, you really don't need me..."

Su Wan raised his hand indifferently, "Sister Min, there's no need, if you bring her to justice at this moment, wouldn't you miss a great opportunity?" ”

Min Ji saw that she was confident, but she still couldn't stop worrying, "Tomorrow is the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, are you ready?" ”

Of course she was ready. Since entering the lunar month, she has not dared to relax and slack off, and has been nesting in the Chengqian Palace for more than 20 consecutive days. She knew early on that Song Xintong would install eyeliner in her palace, but the people under her hands were not unusual, so she suspected that the palace people of the other concubines in Chengqian Palace were in the palace, but she didn't expect to discover the identity of Juan Ling in one fell swoop.

Since Song Xintong is willing to work so hard, she can't live up to her. According to the records of the tribute room, Jia Fangyi has not been favored for almost two months, what will they think if it is known that she has been pregnant for more than a month? I'm afraid I think I have the lethal handle to knock me down.

"The secretary of the military department and Liu Jing, the former secretary of the household department, are the same as the raccoon dogs, but they are just some fake public and private people. Now that the Northern Xinjiang soldiers of Great Xia have lost one after another, it is naturally related to the lack of military salaries, and it is also related to the talent recommendation of Shangshu. The emperor had already moved his mind, and Song Xintong was so anxious to replace Concubine Liu, but he didn't know that he had already cut off his retreat. Su Wanqing analyzed.

Min Ji's eyes straightened when she heard this, and she waved her hands in horror one after another, "This can't be said, the harem can't discuss the government in vain!" ”

"I'm just talking casually, if outsiders are present, naturally I can't talk about it."

Min Ji breathed a sigh of relief, and said cowardly, "My sister still has hope, if Hui Chongyi is really planted, you will be the next one to be favored." But I'm different, alas, I really don't know how to pass the boring years. She turned her fingers over the spike flowers on her chest, and at the same time rolled her eyelids and looked at the roof, looking particularly playful.

How so? The emperor has a sister in his heart..."

Min Ji hurriedly raised her hand to stop her, "You don't need to comfort me, I have to think about what to do." ”

Su Wanqing shook his head helplessly, and once again set his eyes on the snow that was as soft as catkins, hoping that everything would go well tomorrow.

The Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, to put it bluntly, is a family banquet, all harem concubines, regardless of grade, can participate, and the emperor's brothers can enter the palace to feast with the empress dowager and concubines, which is a very lively day.

The Chinese New Year's Eve banquet for Chengxi's eight years was still organized by Concubine Xian, but with Concubine Li on her side. Yonghe Palace was cleaned out early to arrange a banquet, and there were three spacious seats in front of the main hall, and the first seat was the prince and the concubines with high ranks, and although the palace concubines with low rank were eligible to participate, they could only look at the king's face from afar in the side hall of Shuangtong.

As the night fell, Yonghe Palace gradually became noisy, gathering in twos and threes to chat. When it was time to come, the emperor's royal drive and the queen mother's phoenix drive arrived at the same time, and everyone got up and knelt down to greet them, but the scene couldn't help but sigh. The queen mother did not want the emperor to support her, but was supported by the ministers of Southern Chu. The emperor was not alone, and followed by Hui Chongyi and Song Xintong.

In this way, the virtuous concubine who is in charge of the affairs of the six palaces is saluting her, and this favorite concubine is even more proud of the sky.

"Since entering the customs, Xianbei has continued to integrate with the Han people in the Central Plains. The ancestors of the Yuwen clan have learned Han etiquette for generations, and the Chinese New Year's Eve is particularly important, and it is a day for the family to gather, so you should not hesitate to drink and enjoy the joy of life! ”

The emperor said this generously, and he picked up the imperial gold bottle wine glass and said the wine happily. Su Wanqing sat down, still out of reach of him, and naturally it was difficult for him to pay attention to him from time to time.

She picked up the wine glass and was about to sip it, when she suddenly heard a whisper in her ear, "Master Jia has never been in good health, so don't drink such strong wine, this is a fruit wine prepared by the Internal Affairs Office, and it tastes just as good." ”

Turning her face to look, it was Juan Ling, and she smiled at Min Ji and said, "My sister is really good at training palace people, this palace maid is really smart and clever." ”

Min Ji glared at Juan Ling in displeasure, and didn't say much. Juan Ling watched Su Wanqing drink the fruit wine with her own eyes, and the purpose of the medicine was naturally accomplished, so she no longer stayed in front of her master, and quietly retreated to the back.

"Sister Min, it's too stuffy in this hall, I'll go out to breathe, and I'll come back later."

Min Ji looked like she was energetic when she saw the singing and dancing, and waved her hand casually, but she pinched a cold sweat for her in her heart.

Facts have proved that Juan Ling is indeed Song Xintong's person. Su Wanqing left only for a moment, and Hui Chongyi, who was snuggled next to the emperor, opened his mouth to complain about the vulgarity of singing and dancing, and the emperor asked directly, "Since Tong'er thinks that the singer trained by Shangyi Bureau is not good, how about a dance in person?" ”

Song Xintong unashamedly raised a soft voice in front of everyone, and pretended to suddenly remember something, "Where can the concubine do this." Eh, I have heard that Jia Fangyi is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so it should be okay to do something as trivial as dancing, so it's better to..."

Yu Wenche didn't know why she mentioned Su Wanqing, but in short, there was an impure purpose in it, and he glanced at her a few times with deep meaning, "Okay, I understand Jia Fangyi's talent, it's better to... Well? Where did Wan Qing go? Min-hee, isn't she sitting with you? ”

Min Ji was picking up the grapes in the fruit bowl to eat, and when she heard the words, she choked and smoothed her breath, "Sister Jia said that she was a little breathless, and she said that she went out for a walk. ”

"Going for a walk?" The emperor couldn't help but be suspicious, the banquet had just begun, where was he so breathless? He turned sideways and instructed Li Ronggui, "Go find Jia Fangyi." ”

It was this inadvertent action that he aimed at the position where Kehou had been staying, and Chu Xiuze was nowhere to be seen.

Song Xintong followed the emperor's gaze and couldn't help but smile proudly, "Sister Jia has always liked flowers and plants, I heard that there are winter daffodils blooming on the edge of the pond in Yonghe Palace, so she won't brave the cold wind to enjoy the flowers!" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, a little eunuch jumped out of behind Li Ronggui without a head, knelt down next to the emperor's throne and said, "Your Majesty, the emperor is not good, Xiao Zhu Jia has fallen into the water!" ”
