Cai Wei's death didn't even splash a splash, and she quietly drowned in the harem.

As for the one who Xu Guifei really wants to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger, he is indeed a lot more low-key. Even Mama Li was ordered to go to Xiuyu Palace to move Zhou Ying to move the palace, but the concubine didn't show up, only let people send Cheng Yi, and passed the word to Zhou Ying to be filial to the concubine.

Xu Guifei because of the beloved son sacrifice day is approaching, from time to time weeping, grief, the emperor is very pitiful, not only personally to Huguo Temple to ask Master Xuanku to do things, but also stay in Mingxi Palace every day, to do his best to explain.

Because of the proximity to the water, Zhou Ying also witnessed the return of Xu Guifei's favor.

This mother's love is mixed with too many interests and calculations, if the little prince knows underground, I don't know if he is willing to be a stepping stone for his mother.

However, no matter how Xu Guifei uses her son who died young, the pain of losing her son is indeed real, and she can't fake it. Otherwise, Zhou Ying would not have hitched a ride on Xu Guifei's big ship because of Xu Guifei's empathy.

Zhou Ying raised her little face and smiled sweetly at Mama Tian, who was guarding outside the door of the small Buddha hall. Mama Tian lowered the corners of her eyes sternly, bowed silently, and stepped aside. Zhou Ying entered the small Buddha hall, familiarly lit three incense sticks, bowed three times to the sandalwood Guanyin in the Buddha shrine, inserted the incense in the incense burner, and then knelt on the mat and quietly picked up the Buddha beans.

After all, the puja of Huguo Temple is outside the palace, and even Xu Guifei can't go, let alone Zhou Ying, the adopted daughter.

After Xu Guifei took advantage of her biological son, she must have felt a little guilty. Since Zhou Ying wants to brush Xu Guifei's favorability, she has to start from this aspect, Huguo Temple can't go, fortunately, there is a small Buddha hall in Mingxi Palace.

Since Zhou Ying heard about the small Buddha Hall, she came over every day to brush her daily life and try her luck.

The smell of perennial incense burning in the small Buddha hall lingers, and the sunlight spills in through the panes, making people feel peaceful and serene. Zhou Ying watched the Buddha beans in the pot slowly bottoming out, and felt helpless, it seemed that today was in vain.

Suddenly, there was a creak of the door.

Zhou Ying's heart moved, and she saw Xu Guifei dressed in green clothes and plain clothes, and she didn't have a piece of jewelry on her head, and walked in the door quietly.

Xu Guifei was not surprised to see Zhou Ying, she only nodded lightly to Zhou Ying, signaling that she didn't need to get up to say goodbye, so she walked slowly to the side of the confession, personally lit three pillars of incense and offered it, knelt in front of the Buddha with her hands folded, closed her eyes and prayed.

After Zhou Ying's Buddha beans were all picked up, Xu Guifei opened her eyes and raised her hand to beckon Zhou Ying to follow.

When she went out, Concubine Xu Guifei didn't go back to the house, but only took Zhou Ying for a walk in the small garden, and the palace maids were far behind.

Xu Guifei turned around twice, sat down in the small pavilion, touched the top of Zhou Ying's head, and asked casually, "Aren't you in good health?" How did you remember to go to the small Buddha hall to worship the Buddha? ”

Zhou Ying twisted her fingers, her little face was a little uneasy, and she whispered: "I heard my grandmother say, if you don't hurry up and talk to my mother, she won't be able to hear it anymore after Qiqi." ”

Zhou Ying is Wang Meiren's daughter in the end, and it is not easy to say bluntly to let Mama Li know more about current affairs, and when she comes to Mingxi Palace, she will not mention Wang Meiren. Mama Li's thoughts about the old master will reach Xu Guifei's ears sooner or later, and it is better for Zhou Ying to say it herself than to be sued behind her back.

Xu Guifei frowned at first, that Mama Li mentioned Wang Meiren in the ear of the seventh princess all day long, but she really didn't understand the rules, and then sighed, this old slave is a little loyal, and Xiao Qi is too old, so she rashly transferred Mama Li away, just afraid that Xiao Qi would be separated from her...... That's it, Mama Li is not young, let her be raised out of the palace in a few years, as for now, when I turn around, call the palace maid who is waiting for Xiao Qi, and tell them a few words, so that they can attract Xiao Qi's attention.

"If you have this filial piety, Sister Wang will be happy below......" Halfway through the words, Xu Guifei's heart suddenly suffocated. If a person knows after death, then what will her emperor think when she sees her biological mother using her death to calculate and invite favor?

Zhou Ying half-knelt on the foot of Xu Guifei and looked up at her, "Don't be sad, concubine, Xiao Qi will be filial to her concubine in the future." ”

Xu Guifei suddenly looked at Zhou Ying, and her eyes were as sharp as a knife for a moment.

Zhou Ying's heart tightened for a moment, and her back was covered with cold sweat in an instant, but her hand on Xu Guifei's knee did not move at all, maintaining the posture of a child and looking up at Xu Guifei, and the reflection of Xu Guifei was reflected in the dark pupils, with innocence and trust.

"Good boy......" Xu Guifei smiled gently, as if the sharp edge just now was just Zhou Ying's illusion.

But Zhou Ying didn't dare to act recklessly, only made an innocent appearance, said some childish words, and made Xu Guifei happy.

It wasn't until after noon that a palace maid came up to ask for lunch, and Xu Guifei stopped laughing and prepared to go back. Zhou Ying, who was flattering herself on the side, was already exhausted, but she didn't dare to show any slack on her face, so she obediently watched Xu Guifei return to the main hall.

Xu Guifei walked down the steps and suddenly turned around, "I remember, Xiao Qi, you are the birthday of April, right?" ”

Zhou Ying straightened her small chest and said proudly: "Yes, in three months, I will be six years old!" ”

Xu Guifei couldn't help laughing, hurriedly coughed twice to stop laughing, nodded and said, "Well, Xiao Qi has grown into a big girl, and it's time to enroll." Without waiting for Zhou Ying to jump up happily, she asked again, "Xiao Qi is enlightened?" ”

Zhou Ying lowered her little head, embarrassed to her fingers, "I can only memorize, I can't write." ”

Xu Guifei was a little interested, "What will you carry?" ”

Zhou Ying said shyly: ""Zengguang Xianwen" can be memorized, and "Kindergarten Qionglin" can only be memorized to the 'Age' chapter. ”

"It seems to be the newly learned "Kindergarten Qionglin"." Xu Guifei deliberately teased her, "Don't forget what you learned before, come and recite a paragraph for your mother, if you memorize it well, your mother will reward you with a set of four treasures of the study, okay?" ”

"I won't forget it." Zhou Ying snorted, then held a pair of small hands behind her back, shook her head and carried it, "In the past, Xianwen taught you earnestly." The rhyme is extended, and there are many things to see and hear. Looking at the present and learning from the past, the past is not the ...... of the present"

Xu Guifei smiled and applauded when she heard this, "Xiao Qi is good, it's really word for word." ”

Zhou Ying smiled shyly, embarrassed to cover her hot face.

Concubine Xu asked the palace maid to take out a set of four treasures from the treasury and send them to Zhou Ying's house, and said earnestly: "Since you are going to study, you have to practice the words." Su Zhi next to you has a good hand, if you don't know it, just ask her. ”

Zhou Ying naturally nodded in response.

Originally, there was no way to practice calligraphy in Xiuyu Palace, firstly, Mama Li, who enlightened her, was illiterate, and the "Kindergarten Qionglin" and "Zengguang Xianwen" that taught her were still memorized by rote when Mama Li was motivated when she was a child and served her master; Second, Zhou Ying's share is limited, and most of them are used by Wang Meiren, and the rest has to be eaten and clothed, so how can she have spare money to buy paper and pencils.

Now that Xu Guifei is willing to cultivate her, Zhou Ying must of course seize the opportunity to get rid of the hat of illiteracy.

Zhou Ying returned to her side hall, and the four treasures of the study room were already on her bookcase.

Su Zhi, who can write a good handwriting in Xu Guifei's mouth, stood aside, and it was the palace maid who was serving Zhou Ying in the past few days.

Su Zhi has a pair of faint willow eyebrows, no need to outline, it is already extremely beautiful, she reported softly: "In addition to this set of four treasures of the wrong gold Panlong study, Niang Niang also sent a green pine pen wash under the forest, four knives of rice paper, two sides of the inkstone, twelve lake pens, three branches of large Kai, inch Kai, medium Kai, and small Kai, and a set of thirteen meridian ......."

The more Zhou Ying listened, the wider her eyes opened, "There are so many things, where can I put them." ”

Su Zhi pursed his lips and smiled, "When His Highness enters the school, these things will only increase." Seeing that Zhou Ying was still wrinkled with a worried face, he said, "The right is still empty for a while, you might as well put it out as a study, and your Highness will always use it for reading and practicing calligraphy in the future." ”

Zhou Ying is the same as a little adult, Yan sù nodded, "It's bothering Sister Suzhi." ”

Su Zhi said that he called a palace maid for Zhou Ying to call closely, and then went to the right to tidy up the house in person. After a while, the main hall sent someone to greet him, knowing that Zhou Ying was going to tidy up a study and come out, and specially opened the warehouse to send screens, calligraphy and paintings.

Zhou Ying held her cheeks in one hand and held the book "Kindergarten Qionglin" in the other, looking out the window through the pane, going in and out of the right side a little later, but it was orderly, silent, and she couldn't disturb Zhou Ying who was separated by a few walls at all, and this ability was also very good.

Zhou Ying lowered her head and slowly turned a page of the book.

In this harem, from the concubines who favor the six palaces to the palace maids who are slaves, they really can't be underestimated.
