Qingluan almost forgot how she spent that night, and vaguely remembered that the clearly outlined figure in her dream lingered like a nightmare. The cool voice lingered in my ears, like the breeze of the autumn night, blowing away the troubles in my heart.

She didn't dare to ask too much, and she knew that those unrealistic emotions would only make her suffer in the huge palace. However, the sound that would sound from time to time, the images that would emerge from time to time, and even the sudden throbbing was an indescribable feeling.

At that time, she didn't understand the so-called love, and she didn't understand how much it took to love someone with all her might. Therefore, even if you try to suppress your inner feelings, you still can't do nothing.

After all, if you know that such feelings will be painful, who wants to have them?

Qingluan was lying on the hardwood bed tossing and turning, and the starry sky outside the window was brilliant. There had never been such an impatient attempt to escape from the palace, and as soon as this thought came to mind, the woman was startled to her feet.

She touched it with her hand, and on this cold and windy night, there was a layer of fine beads of sweat on her forehead.

Doomed to a sleepless night.

Qingluan touched the darkness and wanted to find his flute, but when he walked to the wooden table, he suddenly remembered that the bamboo flute was no longer around. For a moment, there was a scene of meteors flying by. Winter snow, Chenguang, cornices, cloisters...... It turned out that before they knew it, the two of them already had so many things to recall. If you want to suppress this emotion, how can these memories escape the past in the purpose scene?

She sat drowsily at the table, thinking a lot in her head. It wasn't until there was a faint movement outside the door, and I lifted my heavy eyelids, that I didn't know when the light had become so dazzling—it was already early morning.

"Didn't the girl stay up all night?" Mama Gui pushed open the door and was really startled to see her sitting at the table in close-fitting clothes, with long hair and a shawl, slightly puffy eyes, and a lazy and weak appearance.

"It's just that I'm a little thirsty when I wake up early in the morning and want to pour some tea."

The grandmother who has lived in the palace for a long time is by no means a good type, she quietly carried the teapot that had long been empty, but said with a wry smile: "The girl is now the core figure of the banquet dance, if there is a demand, just say it." The sun is high, so pack up and get ready for rehearsals. ”

Qingluan was not in the mood at this time, but she still danced as instructed. Just a little powder, a living beauty is displayed in the bronze mirror, so that when she went to the main hall of Chaofeng Palace to meet the queen, the southern woman who has always been known for her charm and exquisiteness couldn't help but be taken aback.

The queen only wore a brocade red narrow-mouthed jacket today, decorated with gold tassels, and although she was delicately dressed, she was also delicate, but the difference between the two could be seen at a glance.

In the past, Qingluan must have been punished because of a woman's jealousy, but now the queen treats her a lot better. What the smiling woman on the phoenix chair wants to see is such a shocking puppet, which is so beautiful that it can overshadow Concubine Chen and make the six palaces wither.

In other words, the more Qingluan looks like a city, the better her chances of winning, and the easier it is to get rid of her.

"This palace has long known that you are quite beautiful, but I never expected you to be so beautiful."

"Niangniang praised the slave maid, the slave maid is just a clever little bird, how dare she sacrifice ugliness in front of the phoenix, and please don't torture the slave maid." Although Qingluan immediately fell to his knees, his heart was much calmer than that day. There was no hatred in Empress Fangcai's words, which showed that she did not anger the queen. It's just that this master suddenly changed his temperament, which made people feel a little uneasy.

The woman at the top smiled indifferently, and a string of pearls hanging from her forehead jingled. The palace maid beside her walked down the stairs and presented the cinnabar tray in her hand to Qingluan, the exquisite treasure box in the plate was inlaid with He's treasure jade, the body of the box was made of gilt, and the skillful craftsman painted an interesting scene of the double dragon playing with pearls on it, which itself is a priceless treasure.

"Open it and take a look."

Qingluan carefully pulled out the small silver plug, and the golden square box opened in response, and inside was a beautiful multicolored step. Shaped like golden branches and jade leaves, red agate as a rod, colorless gems are built into branches and leaves, the light is overflowing under the lamp, only to feel full of color, very dazzling.

The queen walked in front of her, and pinned the priceless colorful steps behind her head with her own hands, and the woman with more streamers looked like stars, like the bright moon, and there was a sense of nobility between her eyebrows.

"Niangniang......" She stretched out her hand to pick it up, but was held down by the queen's palm.

"Hongu Zhilu said, this is not what you want the most. But remember, if you can do the big thing of this New Year's banquet for this palace, this palace guarantees that you will get your wish. After a pause, she seemed to want to see through Qingluan, and smiled slowly, "You must know that no matter how talented you are, after all, your ability is limited." There are some things that you can't do alone. ”

Qingluan's body shook suddenly, and for a while he only felt like a man on his back. The queen's lofty posture seems to have seen everything for a long time, and she is clearly making a deal with herself. In fact, Qingluan is not afraid of being known about her thoughts, but if she can really take this opportunity to take a step closer to him, why should she refuse? Even if she knew that Empress Lu Dao was using herself, she was willing to risk herself.

Just so that you won't regret it in the future.

"Qingluan obeys the orders of the queen."

The queen closed her eyes slightly, and her thin and long eyelashes couldn't help but make people's hearts pound. She seemed to be a little tired, and walked back with the support of the palace maid. Seeing this scene, Qingluan knelt down with interest and withdrew from the hall with Mama Gui. Outside the door, there were already a lot of palace maids dressed in colorful costumes, who were stretching their waists with the dancing girl at this time, and when they saw Qingluan's costumes, they immediately whispered, and their eyes were mixed with various expressions.

"Girl." Qingluan was just about to take a step, but was stopped by Mama's backhand. The old woman's wrist strength was so strong that Qingluan was in pain, and she took a few steps closer to her, and saw that Mama had already lowered her voice, "Girl, remember, this palace is full of fights, and there are fights everywhere." The position of the stamen is not coveted by one person, please protect yourself no matter what, otherwise you will cut off your future is small, and no one can afford to ruin the mother's big event. ”

She lowered her eyelids slightly, and a lot of lightning flashed in her mind. In just a moment, her eyes calmed down a lot - she didn't want to hurt anyone, but she wanted to fight for what she wanted in her heart. The harem is like a battlefield, and if someone insists on getting in her way, she must also be a brave and warlike general.

Qingluan bowed slightly to the master of the dance, and when he raised his head, he smiled like a newborn child.

"Little girl Qingluan. In the future, I will rely on Master Maiji's guidance. ”
