In the corner of the small courtyard of the flower garden, Gu Lan, who is sitting under the tree, is embroidering with her head down.

I looked at her beautiful figure from afar, her expression was focused, and her quiet and calm temperament could be felt even from a distance.

Coming out of the hut where I lived, Qingzhi stood silently side by side beside me.

At this moment, seeing that I was looking at Gu Lan under the tree from afar, she leaned over and whispered, "Xiaoling, what do you say Su Hyun is talking about?"

I looked sideways at Qingzhi, shook my head and said, "I can't even think of someone who has been in the palace for so long, and I asked if I was still in vain?"

I thought of another thing, since I saw Liang Xue in the Qingsi Hall yesterday, and the people from the flower garden also arrived, I asked Qingzhi, "Sister, Gu Lan has arrived with us, so Xiao Mingzhu also went to the Lin De Hall in time, right?"

"Gone early."

"Now, she's got what she wanted."

"It's hard to say, if you're worried, you can go to the Lin De Hall and ask for some news, won't it be clear?"

Qing Zhi glanced at me, she still had something she had brought from my hut in her hand.

"There's no need to go out of your way to ask someone," I thought for a moment and said, "If you go to deliver flowers by the way, you can ask."

"Xiao Mingzhu is bent on going to the Lin De Palace, and I also helped her, which can be regarded as my heart."

"Whether she is doing well over there, whether the emperor likes her or not, this is up to her to grasp, not my responsibility."

"That's right, I didn't listen to you ask, I just said it casually."

Qing Zhi rolled up a booklet in her hand, tapped it on my shoulder a few times, and said with a smile: "You can come out of the Qingsi Hall along the way. It's also your luck that you won't tell me what happened?"

Qing Zhi lowered her head and rubbed the cover of the booklet, smiled lightly and said slowly: "I have seen all kinds of rewards in the palace, and the most rewarded are clothing, silver, and jewelry."

"It's the first time I've seen a reward for this."

"But the people around Su Hyun. It's not unusual to get some of the things I said earlier." Qing Zhi paused in her tone as she spoke, "After appreciating this, it can be seen that he still looks at you very well."

I was in a trance. snatched the booklet from Qingzhi's hand, looked at her and said with deliberate certainty: "That's!" The person you picked, everyone is red-eyed, don't you see him digging the foot of the wall?"

"There are more than one people who come to dig corners."

I replied earnestly, "They all have good eyes. Everybody can see the benefits of me."

"I should have considered what he said, after all, he has regained his former position. Maybe in the future, life will be better, my sister said, should I abandon the darkness and turn to the light?"

"You're the dark!" Qing Zhi raised her hand and hit me." You're beautiful! "

The courtyard was quiet, and several masters went to the building office to get the newly made flower pots, so the voices of the two of us seemed a little noisy.

Even so. Gu Lan didn't even raise her head, and continued to split the silk and fly needles. without pause.

Qing Zhi was the first to stop and sighed, "I'm really attentive."

"If it weren't for that, how could her kung fu be so good."

"I know, so I won't let her do the work of our flower garden for the time being, with you following me, and the little girl sent to the greenhouse, it's enough for the time being."

"Sister, if I have to go to the Linde Hall that day, you will let the one from Penglai Pavilion come forward, and then ask someone to come in and make up for it."

"Are you really going to go?" Qing Zhi frowned.

I shook my head, looked at Qingzhi helplessly and replied, "It's not for me to decide, let's talk to you first, so I can be prepared."

"Well, that's right."

Qing Zhi raised her head and looked in the direction of the greenhouse and said, "The new little girl is not bad, she is very diligent and doesn't talk much."

"Sister, your comment looks like we heard it in the Qingsi Palace."

"Everywhere in the palace, the people the stewards like are almost the same, and these two items are applicable to either side."

"Xiaoling, I don't dare to hand over those newly sent flowers and plants to her, wait a few days to see how she gets started, and I won't let her touch them now."

"Xiaoling, Qingzhi is in charge." Gu Lan, who was immersed in embroidery, finally raised her head after finishing a few stitches.

She smiled when she saw me walking in with Qingzhi.

Especially for Qingzhi, Gu Lan's eyes were a little more grateful.

"You just go on." Qing Zhi pressed her to the chair and said with a smile in return, "With a skillful girl like you here, our flowers here are always blooming."

"What do you mean by that?" Qing Zhi's eyes flashed with doubt.

"It's all in your embroidery."

Qingzhi said embarrassedly: "I'm ready to take care of the flowers and plants after I come, I can't imagine that life is better than when I was in the training ground, and I can't imagine that the housekeeper sister will let me concentrate on embroidery."

"If I can't produce a few good embroideries, I really can't stand the hard work of the manager."

"You're the same as Xiaoling, don't call me anything, it sounds so awkward, in private, you call my sister a who's done, in charge of things, don't call me that, it looks like a raw thing."

"Listen to my sister."

The three of them gathered together to look at the orchid picture that Gu Lan had just shown.

Even the veins are clearly visible on the green leaves, so delicate that you can't help but want to reach out and touch them

[,！ I was amazed, "Really"

I don't know how to describe it, this embroiderer!

Qing Zhi naturally reacted the same as me, and said with a smile: "If Your Majesty sees this, she will definitely make two poems, and if you replace me and Xiaoling, you can only say a bunch of good words."

"Ming'er's pot of flowers was sent to the Lin De Palace, there is this picture hanging here for us, it can be seen from time to time, that pot of flowers is the best pot in the flower garden recently, and the hands of the Lin De Hall are very fast."

Qing Zhi sighed and said.

"You really don't want to give your embroidery to His Majesty at the palace banquet? In that case, you might as well be transferred to where you're going."

"No," Gu Lan said with certainty, "I was looking forward to it, from me here. After I saw so many flowers and plants in the conservatory, I changed my mind, sister, I want to stay here, at least for a year."

"That's good," Qing Zhi nodded with satisfaction, "I don't like what is difficult for strong people. I knew you had that thought. I don't have to ask you, now you know your own mind. Just stay here."

"I dare to pack the ticket, there are few stewards in the entire Sealand Palace who treat the people below me as well."

"You see that Xiaoling girl has gained weight in a few days, and she should know."

"Sister!" I pretended to be angry and stomped my feet.

The three of them burst into laughter.

Gu Lan's eyes were still sharp, and she found the booklet I had been holding in my hand, and said curiously: "Xiaoling. Is it a book about cultivating flowers and plants?"

"No, no. That is her reward, the noble monarch who originally lived in the Qingsi Palace, and the noble monarch who lived in the Qingsi Palace."

"Yesterday, I went with her to the Qingsi Hall to sort out the flowers and plants, and she went to Majesty Xià and Guijun to deliver a tea. It happened that she was playing chess over there, and I didn't know how she spoke, so I was pleased. So the reward, I just asked her to borrow it."

"This girl has a very tight mouth. I didn't let me see that chess book, and I didn't say anything about it on the way back from the Qingsi Hall yesterday."

"Or I went to her hut today, and I couldn't hide it in the palm-sized place, so I saw it."

Qing Zhi said a few words in one breath.

"The girl who has no conscience is still hiding it from me, and it is in vain that I am standing outside the small building and hanging my heart for you, you are good!"

After speaking, Qingzhi also glanced at me, a beauty is a beauty, even if she stares at me like this, it is a kind of coquettish feeling.

Gu Lan's eyes widened and said, "Xiaoling, let me see."

I happily handed over the booklet, Gu Lan took it silently, and Qingzhi leaned up and looked at it together: "I've seen it, I don't understand it."

Gu Lan hurriedly flipped through a few pages of the book, and thoughtfully handed the book back to me: "I don't understand it very much, Xiaoling always understands, otherwise Su Guijun would not have rewarded this chess book."

"To be honest, I don't know much about it, and I have to be better than someone to refer to it for me." I replied sincerely.

"Xiaoling, there are many people in our palace who love to play chess, except for His Majesty and that Su Guijun." Qingzhi will stumble every time she talks about this, mainly because Gu Lan is there, if I just chat with her, she will call Su Hyun directly.

"In addition to them, I remember that there are several other beauties who also love this."

"What about the Emperor of the Lin De Palace?" I noticed that Angelica mentioned many names, but not that one.

I was very impressed by what I saw in his study.

"I've never heard anyone mention this." Qing Zhi thought about it again.

I chuckled in my heart and looked up at Qingzhi without speaking.

She has been in the palace for a few years, and if she has never heard of it, it is really too low-key!

In the west of the national capital, people rushing to the market are shoulder to shoulder, and it is very lively.

On both sides of the market are many stalls along the street, and on both sides of the street are distributed garment shops, pharmacies, grain stores, tea shops, and shops.

Not only are the shops lined up, but the business on the street stalls is not bad, selling porcelain, wood carvings, and ornaments.

A horse-drawn carriage slowly made its way through the market and finally stopped in an open field.

The man in blue poked his head out of the carriage, his sharp gaze swept across the crowd, suddenly stopped somewhere, turned his head to the coachman who was following the steps behind him, and said, "Go over there and send him a message, just say I'm waiting for him in the teahouse."

After he pointed out the coachman, he saw the small circle in the corner, and looked up in the direction pointed by the man in blue, who else could there be if the ragged figure sitting crookedly against the wall was not the old man?

The coachman pushed aside the crowd, hurried to the wall, leaned down and made a gesture of throwing money into the begging bowl, and quietly handed a message to the old man.

The latter frowned, and he knew it.

He glanced in the direction of the carriage where the man in blue was sitting.

After a while, the figures under the wall disappeared, and the streets were full of markets, and no one in the flow of people would deliberately pay attention to such an inconspicuous old man.
