17. Chapter XVII

The system didn't expect Xiao Yan to have such a big reaction to his unintentional sentence, and after a moment of stunned, he suddenly cried, sobbing and apologizing: "Master, I really didn't mean to hurt your heart!" I just want to help the owner save some more points! Don't be angry with me, don't ignore me...... Woowoo...... ...... hosts"

Xiao Yan's forehead was bruised, and she really had some skills in this system, and she actually knew that she had always eaten soft rather than hard, and she was most afraid of seeing others crying in front of her. Hmph, this system catches her weaknesses very accurately, if she catches the weaknesses of Qianlong and the other concubines so accurately, it can still help her a little.

Since it is a Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, it is naturally indispensable to compose poems and sentences and guess lantern riddles for fun.

The Queen Mother Niu Hulu is not good at poetry, and because when she was in Prince Yong's mansion, she was robbed of a lot of Yinzhen's favor by the Nian family, who was good at poetry and painting, so she has never liked those concubines who are proud of their talents and like to show off their literary talents.

Regarding the preference of the Queen Mother Niu Hulu, the slightly scheming concubines in the palace have already inquired clearly, so as long as the Queen Mother is present, even the Queen Fucha Ningxiu does not dare to show off her literary talents in front of the Queen Mother.

So, at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, Queen Fucha Ningxiu just made a few lines of poetry, not to be brilliant, but to be innocent. After all, she, the queen who has no concubine, still needs the support of the Queen Mother. As long as she sits firmly in the back seat, recuperates in the future, and then gives birth to a healthy son-in-law for the emperor, then the future crown prince will definitely be in her son's pocket.

Even the poems made by the queen are extremely mediocre, and the concubines present are all scheming people, even if they want to attract the emperor's attention, they don't want to offend the queen in public at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, so these concubines and ladies just made a few poems that are slightly worse than the poems of the queen Fucha Ningxiu, just to respond to the scene without making mistakes. In this way, Xiao Yan, who sat quietly at the end of the seat without saying a word, was not so conspicuous.

Seeing Xiao Yan hiding on the side and being silent, Chen Menglei originally wanted to say a few words to sarcastically mock her directly, but thinking of the unusual favor and attention that Qianlong and the Queen Mother attached to Xiao Yan, she swallowed the sarcasm that was almost rushing out of her mouth back into her stomach.

Wan Guiren's eyes rolled, and he deliberately smiled lightly: "Sister Xiao is still the first time to participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet in the palace, right?" Isn't there a little nervous in your heart? My sister is too restrained, and she doesn't write poems and riddles with her sisters, so what's the fun of just sitting there alone? ”

Although Wan Guiren's voice was not too loud, it was very crisp, just so that Qianlong, who was sitting in the first place, could hear what she said.

Qianlong narrowed his eyes slightly, and also hooked his lips and smiled: "The noble man is reasonable. I remember that I also gave you a book of poems, how did you learn? You should be able to memorize at least one or two poems, right? ”

Xiao Yan stood up, glanced up at Qianlong uneasily, then quickly lowered her head, and explained softly embarrassedly: "The collection of poems given by the emperor to the concubine, the concubine has naturally studied it seriously, but it is a pity that the concubine's qualifications are dull, and she has not memorized a poem yet. The concubine lived up to the emperor's expectations, and asked the emperor to punish her. ”

Since the system will cry and pretend to be pitiful to win her sympathy, why can't she use this trick now? She didn't believe that as long as she sincerely admitted her mistakes, could Qianlong really punish her for this little thing?

Xiao Yan caught a glimpse of Wan Guiren's triumphant smile, but a wave of discomfort swelled in her heart. Qianlong scum is really annoying, and he actually bullied her with Wan Guiren! Sure enough, it's a little scum dragon who feels like a horse when he sees a beautiful woman!

A happy smile crossed Qianlong's bright phoenix eyes, and his right hand tapped lightly on the table, and he said slowly: "Since Xiao Chang is sincerely admitting his mistakes, then I will be punished lightly." Fine...... Xiao Chang must memorize three poems for me tonight, otherwise, he will not be allowed to sleep...... I will personally teach the overseer, Xiao Changzai doesn't want to be lazy......"

As soon as Qianlong's words fell, all the concubines and concubines present changed their colors a little.

Empress Fucha Ningxiu barely maintained a noble and decent smile on her face, but there was a bit of chill in her gaze when she glanced at Xiao Yan. Concubine Wulanala Jingxian couldn't help but look at Xiao Yan a few more times, and secretly guessed in her heart why Qianlong was so fascinated by Xiao Yan. Jia Concubine Jin Jia Wanhua looked at Xiao Yan with a complicated expression, gently stroked her round and huge abdomen with her left hand, and secretly comforted herself with the unborn imperial heir in her abdomen.

The noble Chen Menglei and Liu Rongjia are still shallow in disguise, and their beautiful faces show obvious jealousy and resentment, and then they thought that this was on the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, and the emperor and the queen mother were still sitting on it, so they hurriedly pulled out a stiff smile.

Concubine Su Jia Ronghui, Yu Guiren Keriette Zhilan and Qing Guiren Lu Jinxin looked at Xiao Yan with a little more envy in their eyes, and they didn't know whether it was true or false, and even showed a light smile of blessing to her.

The Queen Mother didn't care about Qianlong's favor of a small Chang who had no obvious family background and a low position.

Although this Xiao Changzai was born extremely beautiful, after all, she was just a lowly woman from the Han military banner, at best, it was just a thing to relieve Hongli's boredom. How much can Hongli spoil her? At most, it is to give her a concubine, and it will be the end, and she will not be able to turn the sky up anyway. As long as Xiao Chang can be enveloped, it can make Hongli have a better impression of her, the queen mother. In this case, she will not move out of the palace for these trivial things and the rules will make Hongli unhappy!

Queen Fucha Ningxiu saw that the queen mother had a loving smile on her face, and looked at Xiao Yan with a smile, there was no blame in her eyes, her mind was racing, and she also showed a generous, elegant smile, and said to Qianlong Jianyi: "According to the rules of the palace, the Mid-Autumn Festival was supposed to serve the emperor by the concubine, but the concubine has not been happy recently, and she is still taking medicine to recuperate, and she can't accompany her." The concubine originally wanted to recommend Xiao Chang, who was outstanding, to sleep, but now the emperor has a good impression of her, which is also her blessing and creation! ”

Qianlong looked at the queen and smiled slightly, "The queen has a heart." Xiao Changzai is indeed good, and I am very satisfied. ”

Qianlong's words made the queen's face stiffen slightly, and she almost couldn't maintain a proper smile on her face.

Xiao Yan was extremely depressed in her heart, the great blessing and creation of the gods, if it weren't for the sake of brushing up favorability and increasing points, she would have hid as far as she wanted, looking for an opportunity to escape from the palace and live her own little life freely, so she was impatient to stay in the palace and entangle with the Qianlong scum!

The disbelief in Xiao Yan's eyes flashed for a moment, and then immediately showed a look of surprise and inexplicable expression to thank Qianlong and the queen. However, Qianlong, who had been paying attention to Xiao Yan, looked at the fleeting disdain in Xiao Yan's eyes, and the phoenix eyes that looked at Xiao Yan immediately brightened a little, slightly hooked the corners of his lips, revealing a meaningful smile.

Although Princess Hejing is still young, she already knows a little about the favor of the harem. Now and the emperor Ama who respects her is so fond of and attaches importance to a little Chang who has just entered the palace, and at the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, she did not give her Huang Eniang face, and ordered Xiao Chang to accompany her during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the Huang Eniang not only could not be angry, but also generously selected suitable concubines for Huang Ama to sleep...... The more He Jing thought about it, the more he frowned, and he only felt a heavy discomfort in his heart.

Yonghuang is close to adulthood, although he has not yet opened meat, but he has recently become familiar with people. Yonghuang saw that Qianlong didn't care about the face of the queen Fucha at all, and bluntly ordered a low-status Xiaochang to accompany him, but he felt very happy in his heart. Yong Huang thought about his own mother who was killed by the queen Fucha, and he also had a good impression of Xiao Changzai, who robbed Qianlong's favor and disgraced the Fucha clan.

Yonghuang couldn't help but think that as he grew older, several older palace maids who served him around him had also hinted at men and women to him in private, and tried every possible way to seduce him, wanting to climb into his bed in order to seek greater glory and wealth in the future. It's just that as a prince who is not favored by Qianlong, the color of the palace maids around him is naturally limited, and he can't be compared with Qianlong's concubines, and his appearance is even worse than Xiao Yan, who has the best appearance in the harem.

Yonghuang lowered his eyes and hid the monstrous hatred in his eyes. Although that man was his biological Amma, he never treated him as his own son, and even let the slut of the Fucha clan kill his mother! Since the man had taken away his mother, who was the most important to him, he also wanted him to taste the pain of losing the most important person.

For a long time, Yonghuang thought that the two women Qianlong loved and cared about the most were the queen Fucha and the imperial concubine Gao, and he also secretly planned how to put these two sluts who had bullied and even killed Eniang to death, but as Qianlong recently became more and more fond of a lowly Xiaochang who had just entered the palace, Yonghuang gradually saw Qianlong's nature. What queen Fucha clan and imperial concubine Gao clan, I am afraid that they have never been really taken to heart by Qianlong.

Yonghuang's sharp gaze stayed on Xiao Yan for a moment, and then slowly moved away, with a curious look on his face that was very consistent with his age, which did not attract anyone's attention, but he secretly speculated in his heart about Xiao Yan's status in the heart of his merry Emperor Ama, and at the same time felt that Xiao Yan, a girl who was only three years older than him, actually had the ability to hook his Emperor Ama, thinking that in addition to his extraordinary beauty and posture, there should be some unknown means. Yonghuang thought of this, he had never been interested in the affairs of men and women, and he suddenly felt a little curious about how Xiao Yan would serve Qianlong tonight.

So, everyone in the palace thought that Qianlong would spend a romantic night with Xiao Chang, but they never expected that Qianlong would be very strict that night, and he personally taught Xiao Yan to memorize the poems, until Xiao Yan memorized three poems according to his requirements, and then allowed Xiao Yan to go to bed.

Xiao Yan originally thought that tonight would inevitably escape Qianlong's clutches, and she would be tossed by him over and over again, but she didn't expect Qianlong to change her temperament, and personally took a handwritten copy of the poetry collection to teach her to recite sentence by sentence, such a serious look and focused gaze made Xiao Yan even have an inexplicable feeling, feeling that Qianlong seemed to be too persistent in teaching her to memorize poems, in addition to liking poetry and being a good teacher, it seems that there are some secrets that she doesn't know yet.
