Because Xiao Yan slept for Qianlong again last night, and was stayed by Qianlong on the dragon collapse in the West Warm Pavilion of the Heart Cultivation Hall as he did when he went to bed for the first time, therefore, Mo said that the other concubines and concubines were jealous of Xiao Yan in their hearts, and even the Empress Fucha Ningxiu, who insisted on keeping Xiao Yan in the palace in the hope of using her to compete for favor with the imperial concubine Gao Fang, was a little uncomfortable in her heart, and she couldn't help but think a little more.

Therefore, when Xiao Yan rushed to Changchun Palace on time to greet the queen after having breakfast in the Xinuan Pavilion of the Heart Cultivation Palace, she was naturally sneered at by the jealous concubines and concubines, either explicitly or secretly.

Liu Guiren Liu Rongjia shook the delicate Xiupa in his hand and smiled, "Xiao Chang has just slept for the emperor, and he has been allowed by the emperor to live in the West Warm Pavilion of the Heart Cultivation Palace twice in a row. Xiao Changzai was able to sleep with the emperor all night, which was really enviable. Thinking that in addition to Xiao Changzai's outstanding beauty, there should be some unknown means to attract the emperor, right? ”

The noble Chen Menglei chuckled a few times, glared at Xiao Yan jealously, and echoed: "Do you still need to ask?" Xiao Changzai actually had the ability to make the emperor break the rules of the palace concubines and concubines for her twice in a row, and allowed her to stay overnight in the Heart Cultivation Palace, which is an honor that only the queen can enjoy! It can be seen that Xiao Changzai is really charming and has good ability. It's just that these charming methods are naturally the treasures that Xiao Chang is pressing at the bottom of the box, how can he say it lightly and let our sisters know? ”

Although Concubine Wulanala Jingxian did not sarcastically mock Xiao Yan like Liu Guiren and Wan Guiren, it is a secret pity that today's imperial concubine Gao has been carefully bedridden in Chengqian Palace due to the instability of the fetus, so she has missed many good shows. Otherwise, if Gao Fang was present, I don't know what kind of anger he would be made by the young and beautiful Xiao Yan who was left by Qianlong in the Heart Cultivation Hall one after another?

As long as Concubine Xian thought of Gao Fang's pale face when she was angry, she felt a burst of comfort in her heart. Even looking at Xiao Yan felt that it was slightly more pleasing to the eye than usual.

Because Xiao Yan was not emotionally attracted to Qianlong, in the face of the ridicule or provocation of the concubines, Xiao Yan just smiled, the corners of her lips were slightly raised, and she pouted with a faint smile.

Queen Fucha Ningxiu quietly saw the open and secret battle between Xiao Yan and the concubines, and when she saw the alienated and tranquil smile on Xiao Yan's delicate and beautiful face, she couldn't help but feel a complicated feeling in her heart.

Because Qianlong was going to hold a family banquet in the Qianqing Palace this evening, the queen Fucha Ning Xiu also wanted to dress up, so Ning Xiu did not leave the concubines for too long, so she asked them to go back to prepare for the family banquet in the Qianqing Palace.

Ning Xiu's graceful and luxurious face hung a square and elegant smile, and she just rightly signaled and mentioned: "Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, a good day for happy reunion." Originally, the palace was supposed to serve the emperor during such a festival, but unfortunately, the palace has been feeling unwell recently, and is taking medicine to recuperate, so he can't sleep for the emperor. ”

"Although the emperor is in the prime of life, he does not have many heirs, so in order to inherit the royal bloodline, the palace also hopes that the emperor will pamper more concubines who are easy to give birth to. As for which of you has the ability and luck to serve the emperor in place of the palace on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, it depends on your table at the family banquet tonight. ”

"Therefore, the palace will not keep you much now, so hurry up and go back to the palace to prepare for it."

Fucha Ningxiu's words were extremely decent, but she didn't say a word about the appointment of her to serve the emperor in the Mid-Autumn Festival in place of Xiao Yan that she had promised Xiao Yan before.

When the concubines heard what Queen Fucha Ningxiu said, they were all happy and ready to go, and even Concubine Wulanala Jingxian, who has rarely participated in the competition for favor, was a little moved, and secretly planned to take advantage of the time when Queen Fucha was unwell and the imperial concubine Gao was pregnant.

Chen Menglei, a graceful nobleman with a slightly plump figure, listened to the queen's words, proudly straightened her plump chest, and her bright eyes flashed with a look of eagerness.

Liu Guiren Liu Rongjia deliberately twisted Qianlong's favorite slender waist, glanced at the slightly plump waist of the noble Chen Menglei with disdain, and a sarcastic smile overflowed on her lips.

Wan Guiren's eyes rolled, and he smiled lightly and handed over a sentence: "Although Sister Liu's slender waist is not bad, compared with Xiao Changzai's Chu Chu slender waist, it is inferior by three points after all. It's just that I don't know which sister the emperor, who has always liked slim waists, will like more? ”

Wan Guiren's words immediately attracted countless jealous and resentful glances for Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan's eyes flashed slightly, and she didn't explain much, she just sat in the last seat with an expressionless face and pretended to be stupid, just as these chirping warblers and Yanyan didn't exist.

The system felt a little indignant for Xiao Yan: "These concubines and concubines are really too much, and they even want to pull the master around the corner, it's really annoying to be worried!" The owner was really lying in the basement this time and could get shot......"

Back in the side hall of Chuxiu Palace, the system's dissatisfaction with Qianlong became even stronger when Xiao Yan got up to make up after taking a nap. "The master doesn't even have the same precious hairpin ring jewelry, but the other concubines and concubines are surrounded by beads all day long, Qianlong scum is really picky! What's the use of giving only a snuff box with a picture of the spring * palace to the owner? Can the owner still wear it on his body to show off to the concubines and ladies who are like peacocks with their tails cocked? ”

Xiao Yan was speechless and choked.

The snuffbox had been put in her suitcase to press the bottom of it, and she wished she hadn't seen that annoying thing again.

As for the lack of expensive and gorgeous hairpin ring jewelry, Xiao Yan didn't care at all. She has always liked simple and elegant dress, in the past, when she worked, she wore a white coat to solve all the problems, and she would not wear any jewelry for the convenience of work.

In order to avoid colliding with the high-ranking concubines and maidens, Xiao Yan still chose a light blue flag outfit that is not easy to make mistakes. The style of this flag is generous, the ornamentation is not complicated, only a few green plums are embroidered on the cuffs and hems, the calyx is green and white, the twigs are green, and the light blue flag is lined with it, which is extremely pleasing to the eye.

The waiter's hands flew up and down, quickly shuttling between Xiao Yan's black hair, and soon combed Xiao Yan's delicate and chic little head.

However, the waiter looked at the few hairpin ring jewelry in the jewelry box, but he was a little difficult, "Today, the emperor held a Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet in the Qianqing Palace, and the master should have dressed more grandly, but ...... Alas! I don't know what kind of jewelry the master wants to wear? ”

Xiao Yan looked at the jewelry, and only picked up two jasper hairpins with slightly better color and handed them to the waiter, "Just wear these two hostas, and add two pale yellow velvet flowers to decorate, it won't look too plain." ”

In order to match Xiao Yan's simple and elegant dress, the waiter simply drew a light and light makeup for Xiao Yan.

After painting the makeup, even the waiter who was used to seeing Xiao Yan's stunning appearance was stunned for a moment, only to see Xiao Yan's eyebrows swept lightly, her lips were lightly touched, and her white skin was as white as jade without being decorated with extra rouge gouache, it was already dazzling enough, the clear and moist phoenix eyes were sparkling, the shoulders were like a knife, and the waist was like a su, and I couldn't help but sigh secretly in my heart: What a beautiful woman who captivates the country and the city.

Qiu Lan, who was making tea for Xiao Yan, reminded with a light smile: "Now that there is still some time before the start of the family banquet, the master can use some refreshments to cushion his stomach first." The slave remembered that the emperor also deliberately rewarded the master with a book of poems, should the master take a look at it to relieve boredom. ”

The corners of Xiao Yan's mouth twitched, who is impatient to use that thing to relieve boredom, if she had time, she would rather be in a daze than read those babbling poems! However, thinking of Qianlong's instructions, thinking that there would be Qianlong's eyeliner in this Chuxiu Palace, he ordered Qiulan to take a collection of poems and read a few poems patiently, but she read a few poems scattered, and said that there were some complicated words that she didn't recognize.

Qiu Lan twitched the corners of her mouth with excitement, barely maintaining a proper smile on her face.

The waiter looked at Xiao Yan with some sympathy, and comforted softly: "Master, don't be too anxious, learn slowly in the future, read slowly, and you will always learn to compose poetry." The master has read very well just now, but the slave and maid can't even catch up with half of the master! ”

Xiao Yan kept the reactions of the two palace maids in mind, and secretly wondered if there were other masters behind the two palace maids? And who are these masters?

According to Qianlong's neglect of her in the past, the waiter who served by her side earlier should not be Qianlong's person, but it is very likely that the Empress Fucha Ningxiu placed the eyeliner next to her, and Qiulan, who was sent to serve her by the Ministry of Internal Affairs after she was promoted to the throne, is a little suspicious, according to the suspicion and desire for control that emperors have, the master behind this Qiulan is very likely to be Qianlong.
