After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the cold winter came as scheduled, and the footsteps of the New Year followed. Le'er grew up day by day, and in the blink of an eye, it came to the spring of the following year.

The sun is warm, and there is a good spring in the palace. Le'er has been more than ten months, and has begun to toddle, the villain has grown a lot, and she is still a beautiful doll that everyone loves, but she is getting more and more tempered, once she makes up her mind where to go, the people in the nursing palace around her can only follow obediently, otherwise they will babble and be dissatisfied.

The little person, who is only ten months old, already has the appearance of a barbaric princess, and Chu Xue is a little helpless. But fortunately, Le'er is smart enough and sweet-mouthed, not long ago she learned to call people, and the first sound was "mother", and her sweet little mouth made Chu Xue completely angry, so she could only kiss her vigorously, making her giggle.

On this day, Chu Xue personally took her daughter to enjoy the apricot blossoms in the imperial garden, and when she saw the petals spread under the apricot tree, Xiao Leer became interested, and struggled to land from her mother's arms, and wanted to squat down to pick up the petals on the ground.

"Dirty." Chu Xue frowned, picked up the little man again, pointed to the apricot blossoms on the branches above her head, and said, "Le'er wants apricot blossoms, shall we break one from the tree?" ”

Le'er looked at her mother's hand and saw the flower cloud above her head, and raised her hand happily, with an excited face.

Chu Xue smiled and instructed the people around her to fold the flowers.

The mother and daughter were waiting for the apricot blossoms, but they saw that the palace people of the Siyuan Bureau were holding pots of flowers and plants and walked over, as if they were going to decorate the courtyard, Chu Xue was curious, and ordered someone to go and ask, but saw that the steward and eunuch of the Siyuan Bureau came over in person, saluted her with a smile, and she also gave a smile and asked, "Is this any happy event?" ”

The steward of the Siyuan Bureau bowed down and replied: "Back to the concubine Niangniang, Ming'er is the day when the newcomers enter the palace, and the minions are ordered by the queen to decorate the three palaces. ”

Although she is already a concubine, but because there were not many people in the palace before, she didn't have to share palace affairs with Xu Jinhe, so she didn't pay much attention to these things.

Now that the topic has been opened, she can't help but have to care for a few words, so she asked: "Where are the newcomers arranged?" ”

The steward reported one by one, "Hui Niangniang, the young lady of Anguo Houfu was named Concubine Ning, and the arranged residence was Lanlin Palace; Zhao Shangshu's young lady is titled Concubine Wan and is about to move into Qutai Palace; The princess of Jin Liguo, the emperor named Concubine Li, and arranged it in Lingyue Palace. ”

She knew it in her heart, nodded and said, "I know, dress up well, don't let down the queen's intentions for the newlyweds." Go ahead. ”

"Yes." The steward leaned back and re-entered the procession of palace people. Secretly a little surprised, he thought that the most favored concubine would always be a little disappointed when she heard that three newcomers had arrived, but why couldn't she see it on her face at all? Is it really broad-minded and doesn't care, or is it confident that you will never fall out of favor?

When a newcomer comes to her husband, which woman in the world will feel comfortable? But the confidence that can calm Chu Xue does not come from himself, but from Song Chen.

~~

On the morning of the second day, the troika drove into the palace gate.

The curtain of the carriage in front of her was lifted, revealing a delicate face, and the princess from a foreign country secretly looked curiously at the strange and fresh palace in front of her, imagining her life here.

When she was still in her homeland, she always knew the strong name of Daqi, and she heard that she was about to marry the new monarch of Daqi. This new monarch is said to be very powerful, he almost wiped out the barbarian tribe of Beihu, and took the throne from the old emperor's concubine......

Although Yu Sheng is the princess of Jinli, because of her excellent appearance and the arrogance of the princess, she wants to marry the most powerful man in the world. So although she wanted to be reconciled at the beginning, after hearing about the prestige of her future husband, she did not feel sad, but gave birth to a sense of relief. Finally about to escape from Jin Li's court that despises herself, in the palace of Daqi, with her extraordinary appearance and completely different charm from the women of Daqi, she doesn't believe that she will not get the emperor's favor!

is also full of confidence and pride with the previous feather dress, as well as Zhao Jing, who was newly named Concubine Wan, since she entered the palace last time, it has been more than half a year, and the most half a year she has been marrying in her mother's house is the slowest time she has lived.

On the third day after returning home from the palace flower feast, she learned that she had been selected, and the whole family happily congratulated her, and she herself breathed a sigh of relief. She saw the nobles that day, and she didn't pay much attention to it, in her opinion, don't say that few people's looks can match herself, even if a few people can be compared with herself, their family background is far from their Zhao Mansion, not to mention the most important thing, she has the help of the queen, this backer is amazing. She believes that it won't be long before she, Concubine Wan, will occupy an important place in the emperor's heart.

The girl smiled smugly, and waited for the carriage to take her to her Qutai Palace.

Soon after, the carriages stopped in front of each of the three palaces.

Seeing the palace people who came forward to greet him, Ning Gu Pingjiao stepped into the hall, looked around at the neat and luxurious furnishings, and did not speak immediately.

Seeing this, the palace maid in charge of Lanlin Palace smiled and said: "Niangniang is running all the way, please take a break first, after half an hour, the brides and maids will go to the two palaces of Funing and Fengyi to ask for peace, and the slaves and maids will send someone to change your clothes and dress up." ”

Gu Pingjiao nodded, and with a good word, the palace maid bowed down and exited the palace gate.

There were only her two dowry maids left in the hall, Gu Pingjiao finally breathed a sigh of relief, walked to the couch and sat down.

She is actually not very old, she was just a few days after her fifteenth birthday when she chose a concubine last year, and now although half a year has passed, she is still a young girl under the age of sixteen, plus she is petite, born with a baby face, and looks even more immature than her actual age.

She is the grandniece of the Queen Mother, the youngest daughter in the family, she actually doesn't want to enter the palace, the emperor who wants to serve after entering the palace is more than twice as old as her, if you talk about seniority, you should be called a cousin, although she has never touched anyone, but she really can't accept such a gap.

But no matter whether she can accept it or not, her parents and grandparents sent her to the palace, she is the only girl in the family who is suitable for marriage, the queen mother needs to have her own family in the harem, and the elders of the family also need to enter the palace to strive for glory and wealth, she has no choice, let alone dare to disobey.

Silently sad for a while, there have been palace maids who have come in to dress and change clothes for her, and today when they enter the palace, they not only have to adapt to the new environment, but also have to face a nobleman. First the queen mother of Funing Palace, and then the queen of Fengyi Palace, Concubine Yi, Concubine Rong, these people are all slack, not to mention that when they wait until the evening, they have to meet the king who has not shown up, although I don't know what happened to the other two, Concubine Ning Gu Pingjiao here, she already feels a thousand pounds in her heart.

There is only one queen mother in Funing Palace, the ceremony is simple, and after the queen mother rewards them one by one, the three of them moved to Fengyi Palace.

Xu Jinhe, Chu Xue and Li Jiaoyun are all waiting here.

Welcoming the newlyweds today, the three of them are wearing formal palace clothes, because they have been with the king for a long time, and the three of them are all graceful and luxurious, but they are also different. Xu Jinhe is dignified, Li Jiaoyun is gentle, and Chu Xue has both, but her beauty is even better. The newlyweds stepped into the gate of Fengyi Palace, and after saluting the three of them one by one, they all stood up and looked at the only three masters in the former palace.

Concubine Ning and Concubine Wan had already seen Xu Jinhe when they were choosing a concubine last year, although Yu Sheng was a newcomer, but with Xu Jinhe's position and the dress on her body, she could also guess her identity, and the three of them were not too surprised when they saw Li Jiaoyun, but when they saw Chu Xue clearly, they were all a little shocked.

Although Yu Sheng came from a foreign country, before leaving, he had heard of Chu Xue's name as Chu Xue's special pet like the other two, and when he saw her with his own eyes at this moment, he couldn't help but make waves in his heart. She came all the way to Jin Lixing, and she has seen many Daqi women, plus Concubine Ning Wan, who she only saw today, she has to admit that this Concubine Yi is indeed the most outstanding one. She is not as immature as a girl, but she is not the slightest old, she is like the best blooming flower in the garden, between shyness and blooming, the most appropriate.

The most important thing is that I heard that she has given birth to a princess, but just looking at her appearance, her figure is not out of shape at all, but there is a kind of softness in her eyes, which makes people sigh to themselves.

The youngest Gu Pingjiao only sighed in her heart about her sister's beauty, and she didn't think too much, but the ambitious Yushang and Zhao Jing suddenly felt tricky. How possible is it to snatch the favor from such a beauty?

~~

As soon as spring began, government affairs were busy again, and Song Chen was busy for a long time after dinner in the Qinzheng Palace, before he put down his fold and planned to get up.

Seeing that the king finally came out of the government affairs, Zhou Yu, the chief supervisor of the inner court, bowed forward and sneered: "I don't know which lady your majesty is going to in today's palace?" ”

Song Chen raised his eyebrows, this is still a question to ask, except for the time when Chu Xue was confined, he rested in the Qinzheng Palace, when did he not go to Yufu Palace?

Afraid that the king would say the three words Yufu Palace, Zhou Yu immediately followed up and reminded, "Your Majesty, today Lanlin, Qutai and Lingyue Three Palaces have all ushered in a new master, look, where do you go first?" ”

Song Chen finally remembered this incident and understood why Zhou Yu asked him just now.

He naturally still wanted to go to Chu Xuena, he hadn't seen Chu Xue's mother and daughter for a day, he was thinking about it tightly, but when the newcomer entered the palace, he had to go for a trip......

Sighing in his heart, he had a headache, and he said, "Where is Princess Jinli?" Let's go to her first! ”

"Yes." Zhou Yu led the order, glanced at the apprentice Liangxi, Liangxi understood, and immediately sang, "Swing the Lingyue Palace." ”

Immediately there was a way ahead, and the king stepped out of the temple gate.

In Lingyue Palace, Yu Sheng was guessing when the emperor would come, when she suddenly heard the news outside the palace gate, she was nervous and excited, and hurriedly got up to greet her.

"The concubine visits the emperor." Yushang smiled like a flower, and made a big number of courtesies.

Song Chen glanced at the kneeling newcomer, and said in a harmonious voice: "I came from afar, I have worked hard for you, so let's get even." ”

"Yes." The feather dress was flat, a little shy and bold, looking at the handsome king, surprised and satisfied.

But Song Chen's heart was unwavering.

It's just that for some reason, looking at the flickering red candles in the hall and the beautiful appearance of this exotic princess, he instantly recalled the night when Xue'er first entered the palace, when Xue'er was dressed in a red wedding dress, and the stunning beauty under the phoenix crown amazed him......

Although the woman in front of him was beautiful, she was not as good as Xue'er, not only was he not interested, but he had a strange taste in his heart.

Song Chen said simply: "You have a long journey, let's rest these days." ”

And then, when there was no more to say, the king turned around and went out of the temple gate, and returned to his palace of diligence.

Only the palace people who were stunned all over the hall remained, and the new concubine who was still standing in the middle of the hall was also stunned.
