After Xue Yinong came back, he saw Xu Shutong's eyes red and seemed to have cried. Asked, "What's wrong, who bullied you?" Xue Yinong was standing in front of Xu Shutong, so she suddenly pounced in front of her, and her hand was shocked for a while, so she didn't know where to put it, so she had to hang it. What's wrong with you? Did Xue Qingqiu bully you? I'll stick a knife in your ribs and beat him, don't be sad. Okay, no matter what happens, I'm standing by your side, don't cry, pity, you tell your mother not to cry, I ...... I won't comfort anyone! ”

Before she could answer, Xu Shutong was made laugh by her clumsy appearance, and she couldn't care about the previous sadness, so she took a handkerchief to wipe her eyes and reads;.

Xue Yinong was inexplicable, "What's the matter?" How to laugh again. Her stupid appearance, full of question marks, made Cun Xi laugh too, and when they laughed, she became more and more confused.

Xu Shutong asked her, "Just now the emperor said that no matter who bullies the concubines, the emperor will stand by the concubines' side, is that so?" ”

"Naturally."

"Then if this person is the queen mother, what will the emperor do?" There was a cunning light in her eyes, and Xue Yinong knew that she was testing her.

"What else to do, I have to offend the Queen Mother." Her helpless shrugging made Xu Shutong laugh again, how could it be so interesting to tease the emperor. "You're not crying, are you?" Xue Yinong took out a handkerchief and wiped it for Xu Shutong, "It's good to look good if you don't cry!" It's not good to cry, isn't it? ”

The handkerchief embroidered with a little rabbit in his hand dangled in front of Xu Shutong. Xu Shutong pulled it over, looked at it again, looked at it, pursed his lips, looked at Xue Yinong, Xue Yinong hurriedly looked elsewhere, how embarrassed! Xu Shutong shook it in his hand, "This is the emperor?" The emperor likes rabbits? ”

"Who likes rabbits, who is this, who embroidered such a childish thing for me, absolutely I don't like it!"

Luo Yan was sad, is it necessary for the emperor to say this? She ignored Xue Yinong and Xu Shutong, and stomped away.

Xu Shutong understood, "It turned out that it was given to the emperor by Miss Luoyan." ”

"I can't play with what I said, she will be angry with me, forget it, I have to coax her again, what is it sad to say something about this." Taking advantage of Xu Shutong's inattention, she reached out and grabbed the handkerchief and stuffed it in her sleeve, but with her action, something fell out of the cuff in a flicker.

Xu Shutong was busy looking at it, but the thing was a little familiar, and he bent down to pick it up. Xue Yinong saw that something was wrong, and he wanted to grab it, but in the end he was preempted by Xu Shutong, Xu Shutong flipped through the booklet he had drawn, and asked Xue Yinong with a positive color: "What is this, Your Majesty?" ”

Xue Yi was embarrassed. Isn't this your own drawing, and asked me what to do, don't be too good at pretending! Xu Shutong stared at Xue Yinong with a smile, Xue Yinong hurriedly pouted his face and pretended not to know, since the emperor was shy, she also accepted it when she saw it, and asked about the veil.

"The emperor likes rabbits?"

"No, I like tigers."

"I like tigers! Also, such a thing is too delicate in the end, and it is not worthy of it, it is better to do this, change Ming'er is free, and the concubine embroiders one for the emperor, this day is hot, and you have to embroider a fan sleeve with it, and you usually want to put some small things, how can you make it without a purse......"

She said in pieces, everything was fine. Xue Yinong didn't say anything in his mouth, and began to envy Xue Qingyi in his heart, even though the person died, he had her for three years, but it was a pity that she was a woman, otherwise she would take care of it like this, and she would be happy for three days.

Whether it's fake or real, it doesn't matter what's the matter, just be happy.

Xue Yinong smiled, "Then there is Lao Niangniang." "There is a person who thinks about himself, this and that, how can he not be happy! Speaking of this, I remembered one thing, and simply told Xu Shutong. "The mourning period of the imperial brother has passed, all the vassal kings are going back, they have come all the way to the capital, I mean, I want to give me an idea for my mother, what to send to their daughters."

"This thing is very easy, and the concubines should serve the emperor."

Xue Yinong smiled and said, "Then when the matter is over, I will thank you together." ”

"Then the concubine is waiting for the emperor's love;."

The two of them spoke in a rather relaxed atmosphere, and Xue Yinong asked, "King Gong has come, what you want to say, can you finish speaking?" ”

"What, the emperor cares a lot about what we say?"

"I don't care! I just envy you, you can still care about each other, how can I not be envious, although I am thousands of miles away, I want to have a mother to read, and I must be very happy to respect the king. ”

Xu Shutong almost wanted to think that Xue Yinong was going to trick her, but the look of envy on her face made her suspicious of her own heart.

"How can no one read the emperor, there are more people who read the emperor."

"That's more, who reads me?"

"The Queen Mother, the Emperor Taishang, the Queen Taishang, the people of the world, and everyone around you...... and concubines. Her tail note suddenly lowered, but it was just right for Xue Yinong to hear it.

Xue Yinong was surprised and said, "Do you also read me?" I'm glad to hear you say that. Niangniang, do you have someone you like, I can see it, do you like the eldest prince? If so, I can help, I want you to persuade him, a talented and beautiful woman. ”

Xu Shutong didn't know Xue Yinong's intentions, was this to drive her away? Find an excuse to let her go, "How can a concubine like the eldest prince?" ”

"You don't like it? It's weird. The eldest prince is handsome and chic, the jade tree is in the wind, and he is suave, there is no girl who doesn't like this! "Such a rich and handsome can't be looked down upon, Niangniang, your vision is really high.

"The emperor also said that girls like it, and the concubines are no longer girls."

Xue Yinong smiled: "You are not a girl, it is difficult to be a boy." ”

"The emperor is making fun of the concubines, the concubines are so big and three thick, are they so able to make people misunderstand them as boys?"

"Nope."

There was silence between the two. Suddenly, Xue Yinong asked easily: "Then what do you like, I can find it for you?" ”

"If you are good to yourself, you don't dislike your concubines and others."

"This is not difficult, what is there to dislike, Niangniang is so beautiful and moving, presumably men in the world are willing to prostrate under Niangniang's skirt." Xue Yinong said it with a lot of enthusiasm, because in her opinion, Xu Shutong is not to say that she is a second marriage, but a tenth marriage, which is also hot. What's wrong with the widow, there are more divorces in modern times, what is there to be a serious matter, Xue Yinong thought as a matter of course.

"Is that so?" When Xu Shutong looked at Xue Yinong, there was something shiny in his eyes.

"Nature."

"Then it's good to be like the emperor."

Xue Yinong: "...... Hehe, Niangniang is really good at joking, I'm like this, isn't that very blessed, and I'm also used as an analogy by Niangniang, people in the world are going to be jealous of me...... Hehe...... "The corners of Xue Yinong's mouth are about to twitch, don't you joke, Niangniang, okay, a woman, where can you afford such an analogy."

Xu Shutong knew that Xue Yinong didn't want to talk about it, so he just did. I found a reason to withdraw quickly.

Just the way back to his house, he was silent, his face was cold, he was sorry to accompany her, and he didn't dare to speak until he arrived in the house and the door was closed.

Xu Shutong fell on the recliner like soft mud, and unfortunately brought her the chilled fruit to eat, while asking, "Niangniang, it was really dangerous just now." ”

"yes!" Xu Shutong was stunned, she had already said it so obviously, if Xue Yinong wasn't an idiot, she should understand what she meant, but just looking at her like that just now, she understood a little, people were not interested in her at all.

"The emperor wants to reward you to the eldest prince, then if the hundred officials do this again, the emperor will push the boat down the river, Niangniang, I am afraid it will be difficult for us to stay again, we must attack the emperor before everyone."

"yes." There has to be some substantial progress, and Xue Yinong can be taken down, no matter what, she is going to get out. Cheekiness, self-esteem, all gone, who told her to want to climb a big tree.

Xu Shutong's overnight stay, Xue Yinong has repeatedly ordered that if anyone says it, he will let his head move, so all the people around him are obediently silent.

It's just that they don't say it, it doesn't mean that the eyeliner mixed in the Splendid Palace is not clear, so although the news is tightly sealed, it still leaks into the ears of several people more or less.

The noble concubine was one of them, and after knowing the news, she also smiled coldly. Nothing was said at the time, but a few days later, her father was allowed to come into the palace to see her.

When Gao Rui arrived, the noble concubine was overjoyed. "Daddy." She was about to bow down when she looked at it, where did Gao Rui dare to accept her worship.

"There is a difference between monarchs and ministers, and noble concubines must not be." said that he was giving his daughter a trick, and the two sat down separately.

The noble concubine said: "How did my father come to the palace this time, was it allowed by the emperor?" ”

Gao Rui nodded, "The emperor is old, but a courtyard wall separates family affection, saying that you can often enter the palace to visit you, not only the ministers, but the rest of the concubines' families are in Beijing, as long as they tell about it, they can come to see, this is the emperor's grace." ”

"Yes, my father and daughter haven't seen you for a long time, you're all right, how is the court, no one embarrass you!"

"No, it's all good. The minister is looking forward to it, and you are also good. It's just that the first emperor just died, and the emperor ignored morality and got close to Xu Guifei, which made the ministers dissatisfied, and the ministers played the emperor, about the etiquette and law......" Gao Rui said this, he couldn't help but change color, slapped the table, and couldn't be angry.

"Then what does the emperor say? Naturally, he was reluctant to give up the nine-tailed fox. ”

"No, the emperor said that he has returned to the Queen Mother, and there will be a reply within a month, everyone is waiting to see."

"Really? Count him smart, but Dad may not know, a few days ago, ......" Gao Guifei lowered her voice and told her what she knew, "Dad, do you say that he will want to make raw rice and cook mature rice, and when the time comes, you can't catch up with Xu Guifei, Lun Chang is nothing, the heir is important, even if the queen mother is there, probably won't say anything, the emperor only has one son of the emperor, and I am afraid that I will compromise for this matter." ”

Gao Ruishen thought so, "Then what should I do according to Niangniang's meaning?" ”

"Dad will unite with other ministers and urge it, but don't wait for the matter to be done, when the time comes, this nine-tailed fox will really ascend to heaven, if a son is born, then how can it be obtained, if the emperor insists on being crowned the prince, then the mother will be expensive by the son, but it will not be as simple as a concubine."

Gao Rui thought about it, isn't that the case? How could he allow such a perverse thing to happen? He didn't sit down at the moment, and said, "Niangniang, the next time the minister comes to visit you, the minister will go back and discuss it with a few ministers who are good with him." ”

"It's okay, then the palace won't send my father, be careful on the way."

"Okay, mother, rest."
