The corners of Lu Mingyue's mouth smiled dryly, she didn't plan to, she wanted to tell Huangfu Changyuan what she did when she left the palace, but Huangfu Changyuan asked her so enthusiastically and curiously, so that Lu Mingyue had no choice but to talk to Huangfu Changyuan.

As soon as Lu Mingyue came back, Huangfu Changyuan went to the "Huafeng Palace", and the harem learned the news after a while, it seems that Lu Mingyue will not be able to avoid trouble in the palace in the future.

Lu Mingyue was favored by Huangfu Changyuan again, and the form of the harem changed again, but Huangfu Changyuan didn't dare to favor Lu Mingyue too much, and he pampered several newcomers and old people one after another, so he snubbed some people again.

In this way, the harem can reach a balanced state.

In the blink of an eye, summer came, and the palace began to cut summer clothes and distribute ice cubes to each palace.

Concubine Li originally wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, but who expected that the situation in the harem was changing too quickly, and she had to prepare something so as not to be forgotten by Huangfu Changyuan.

Concubine Li has been very well-behaved recently, and she personally learned to make mung bean cakes and prepared to send them to Huangfu Changyuan to taste.

As soon as Concubine Li arrived at the "Huayi Palace", she saw that Ji Yuning also came with a personal palace maid, and the personal palace maid was holding a food box in her hand, and it seemed that she was also carrying something to eat.

When Ji Yuning saw Concubine Li, she stepped forward and saluted: "Sister Concubine Li is good." ”

Concubine Li also said kindly on the surface: "It's Ji Guiren, my sister also came to see the monarch today, what a coincidence." ”

Ji Yuning also noticed that the palace maid who followed behind Concubine Li was also holding a food box in her hand, which seemed to be a coincidence.

"Sister, let's go in together." Ji Yuning politely let Concubine Li walk in front.

Concubine Li also said politely: "Sister, please." ”

The two still maintained one after the other, with Concubine Li in front and Ji Guiren behind.

The eunuch guarding the door saw that the two little lords had arrived at the same time, and hurried in to report it.

Ji Guiren and Concubine Li waited outside for Huangfu Changyuan to summon them.

"Two little masters, the monarch is invited." The eunuch guarding the door came out and respectfully conveyed the words of Huangfu Changyuan.

Ji Guiren and Concubine Li entered the "Huayi Palace".

After the two entered the hall, they saw that Huangfu Changyuan was still concentrating on the desk to review and reciprocate, so they saluted at the bottom: "The concubine sees the monarch." ”

Huangfu Changyuan raised his head, saw Ji Gui and Concubine Li, raised his hand to let them get up, squeezed out a smile on his face, and asked, "The two concubines are so coincidental today. ”

"The concubine thought that it was summer, and the weather was hot, so she specially learned to make mung bean cake for the monarch to relieve the heat." Concubine Li replied first, with a sweet smile on her face.

"Concubine Li has a heart." Huangfu Changyuan put down the brush in his hand and asked the personal eunuch who was accompanying him to get the pastries made by Li Concubine.

Concubine Li asked the palace maid with her to hand the pastry to the eunuch and passed it to Huangfu Changyuan.

The eunuch tried the mung bean cake, no problem, and then put it in front of Huangfu Changyuan.

Huangfu Changyuan smiled on his face, took a piece and put it in his mouth to taste it, and then took a sip of tea.

Concubine Li saw that Huangfu Changyuan had eaten mung bean cake, and immediately drank tea, knowing that the taste was not very pleasing to Huangfu Changyuan.

Huangfu Changyuan put down the tea and asked Ji Yuning: "Ji Guiren also made food for me?" Huangfu Changyuan found that Ji Yuning also came with a food box.

Ji Guiren bowed, and then also presented the food he made.

The eunuch opened the lid of the food box, and it was also mung bean cake, and the food made by the two little masters was the same, and the eunuch was also a little embarrassed on the side, and tried it with a silver needle, no problem, and put it in front of Huangfu Changyuan again.

Concubine Li saw that Ji Yuning and her thought of going together, and they actually made mung bean cakes, and sent them at the same time, it seems that there is a winner to be divided.

Huangfu Changyuan picked up the mung bean cake and tasted it, with a smile on his eyebrows, it seemed that it tasted good.

"This mung bean cake is made in the imperial dining room?" Huangfu Changyuan asked Ji Yuning.

Ji Yuning replied: "Returning to the country, it was the concubine who did it early this morning. ”

"Hahaha, Concubine Ai is really virtuous." Huangfu Changyuan praised Ji Yuning, which made Concubine Li on the side very faceless.

Huangfu Changyuan turned to look at Concubine Li and said, "You learn more from Ji Guiren, what you do is too sweet." ”

"Yes, the concubine must learn from her sister when she goes down." Concubine Li reluctantly replied.

At this time, the little eunuch outside came in and reported: "Return to China, Meng Meiren is waiting outside." ”

"Let her in." Huangfu Changyuan said.

"Yes." The little eunuch went out, and after a while, Meng Ying personally walked in with a food box.

"Concubines see the king." Meng Ying saluted, glanced at Ji Yuning and Li Concubine were also there, Huangfu Changyuan asked her to get up, so Meng Ying saluted Ji Yuning and Li Concubine again: "Two sisters are good." ”

"What a coincidence, I am so blessed today, I have brought me food." Huangfu Changyuan looked at Meng Ying also carrying a food box, and the smile on his face was even stronger.

Ji Yuning and Concubine Li guessed in their hearts, "It won't be mung bean cake too." ”

Meng Ying presented the food she brought, and Huangfu Changyuan saw that it was a bowl of lotus soup.

Huangfu Changyuan took a closer look, the lotus soup looked good, scooped a spoonful, and smelled the faint aroma of lotus flowers coming from the lotus soup, so he tasted it, nodded, said it was good, and continued to eat a few bites, solving the small half bowl.

Meng Ying was very satisfied, and when she saw that the two plates of mung bean cakes on the table had not moved much, she knew that her lotus soup had won the love of Huangfu Changyuan.

After the three of them came out of Huangfu Changyuan's bedroom, Concubine Li left without saying a word, but Ji Yuning suddenly said: "When does my sister learn a good craft, but I can also teach my sister." Obviously said to Meng Ying.

Meng Ying smiled at the corner of her mouth: "I didn't say that I did it myself." Then he walked straight past Ji Yuning and walked away.

Ji Yuning bit her lip, looking unwilling but helpless, so she had to go back to the palace on her own.

After Concubine Li returned to the palace, she kept holding her breath in her heart, there was Lu Mingyue on her head, and now there were Ji Yuning and Meng Ying, I don't know how many people are still snatching the favor of Huangfu Changyuan from her, the more I think about it, the more angry I become.

If this continues, when will Concubine Li's status in the harem be improved, and how will she gain a foothold in the palace and make the people proud of her?

At this moment, a palace maid came in and reported: "Back to the little master, Princess Qi took the newly-born Baylor into the palace to see the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother asked you to go over and see Little Baylor together." ”

"Got it." Concubine Li replied, and asked the waiter to choose a dress, put it on, and then go to the "Shoukang Palace".

As soon as Concubine Li arrived at the "Shoukang Palace", she knew that the Queen Mother had called several concubines in the palace to accompany her.

Concubine Li saluted and went to look at Little Belle, she was so cute, Concubine Li's mind suddenly brightened, "Could it be that the Queen Mother is suggesting that we should give birth to a prince for the monarch quickly?" ”

Li Concubine thought that it should be like this, otherwise the Queen Mother asked so many people from the harem to come and see what a child was doing, but Li Concubine looked around, but she didn't see Lu Mingyue, "Didn't the Queen Mother invite the queen mother?" ”

This gives birth to a prince, and the queen of the country should bear the brunt of it, why didn't the queen mother let Lu Mingyue come?

Concubine Li thought for a while, "Could it be that there is something unpleasant between the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother?" This is also the reason why Concubine Li feels that the only reason why Lu Mingyue didn't come today, but what is the unhappiness between the Queen Mother and Lu Mingyue, Concubine Li doesn't know.

After Concubine Li returned to the palace, she has been thinking about how to let Huangfu Changyuan come to her palace, Huangfu Changyuan has no heir, if Concubine Li can be the first to give birth to an heir for Huangfu Changyuan, then Concubine Li's status will be different.

Concubine Li made up her mind that she must be the first to conceive Huangfu Changyuan's child.

Huafeng Palace

Lu Mingyue heard that the Queen Mother invited the harem concubines to the "Shoukang Palace" today, but Lu Mingyue was not invited.

Lu Mingyue also knew what the Queen Mother meant, "It seems that I really delayed a big event." ”

Although Huangfu Changyuan often stayed overnight in the "Huafeng Palace", he had never had a relationship with Lu Mingyue, and he also wanted to wait for the day when Lu Mingyue really accepted him.

But in this way, I don't know how long it will take, Lu Mingyue will not delay the great event of this good monarch opening up for the royal family.

Lu Mingyue thought to herself, "This can't be done!" ”

Huayi Palace

Of course, Huangfu Changyuan learned about the "Shoukang Palace", and he also had a headache, the Queen Mother had urged him many times openly and secretly, and he should focus on the royal heirs, but he saw that Huangfu Changyuan also went to the harem, but he didn't see the harem concubine's stomach move, which made the Queen Mother anxious.

The Queen Mother sometimes wonders if there is something wrong with Huangfu Changyuan, although she doesn't dare to say anything, but if there is really something wrong with Huangfu Changyuan, she has to cure Huangfu Changyuan, which is related to the national fortune of a good country.

Huangfu Changyuan is now focused on Lu Mingyue, how can he really spoil those concubines.

Huangfu Changyuan thought that he should hurry up and let Lu Mingyue see his intentions.

Next, Huangfu Changyuan began to act.

A few days have passed in Huafeng Palace

"Subordinates see the queen of the country." This time it was not Huangfu Changyuan's personal eunuch who came, but Qingfeng.

"He asked you to come?" Lu Mingyue asked Qingfeng, and only Huangfu Changyuan could summon Qingfeng, and then asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"The monarch asked his subordinates to invite the queen of the country to 'Qingshui Garden' for a gathering." Qingfeng said respectfully.

Lu Mingyue looked at the sky, "This Emperor Fu Changyuan will really find time." At this point, he was about to go to bed, but let Lu Mingyue run out.

"Now?" Lu Mingyue confirmed to Qingfeng.

"Yes." Qingfeng replied.

Lu Mingyue thought about it, but still replied, "Let's go." So he took the brocade heart and followed the breeze.

Qingfeng brought Lu Mingyue to the door of "Qingshui Garden", then stopped, and made a gesture of invitation to Lu Mingyue, Lu Mingyue glanced at Qingfeng, Qingfeng handed the lantern to Lu Mingyue, Lu Mingyue took the lantern, raised her feet and entered the "Qingshui Garden".

Jinxin followed Lu Mingyue and prepared to go in, but Qingfeng stopped Jinxin from the door.
