Stopping on the seat of the sedan chair in front, sat a delicate-looking woman, gorgeously dressed and full of pearls. The woman sitting on the other sedan chair also has a good appearance, but she has a little more gentle temperament.

The woman sitting at the front spoke, and there was a hint of sarcasm in her tone: "I said how it looks familiar, it turned out to be Concubine Ling's sister." After my sister went to Changle Palace Morning Province today, she is here again, and the Queen Mother should like your filial piety very much. ”

The person who spoke was Concubine Xi, a person who has always been clearly divided from the queen's party and fought openly and secretly, and he is also one of the emperor's favorite concubines, and he is also very confident when he speaks.

Ling Concubine replied: "The concubine actually didn't see the Queen Mother in the afternoon, but on the way back, she met the niece summoned by the Queen Mother to the palace, chatting all the way, and the concubine had just walked to the palace gate." ”

"Oh?" Concubine Xi, who was high above, finally set her eyes on Shen Shuzhao and them, if Concubine Ling didn't mention it, she wouldn't have looked at them at all.

It doesn't matter if you look at it, but how can a beauty like Shen Zhuangzhao make people ignore the past at a glance?

So Concubine Xi looked at Shen Zhuangzhao from beginning to end, her eyes gradually became gloomy, and everyone on the other side, except for Concubine Ling and her people, began to feel a slight chill.

Who is Concubine Xi? If Empress Xiao is a gorgeous, unsuspecting and unquestionable peony, then she is a fiery and thorny rose, basically whoever is targeted by these two people, then her life in the harem will not be easy in the future.

Shen Shuzhao suddenly felt a lot of emotion about himself in his previous life, he had just entered the palace, and the harem was the situation of this distinct camp, and he was a pure concubine headed by the Queen Mother and became the lord of the first palace in a high-profile manner, and it was really difficult to stand up for himself and not be framed.

Concubine Xi didn't say anything at this time, she looked at Shen Zhuangzhao coldly, her expression was like the queen looking at the humble concubine who wanted to win the emperor's favor, but at the same time, the virtuous concubine behind her said: "It turns out that this beauty is the niece of the queen mother?" I heard about Yanguan Capital earlier, and when I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation. ”

said this, as if Shen Shuzhao and Shen Xiaozhao were not the nieces of the Queen Mother.

But Shen Shuzhao has long been well versed in their methods, so she is not at ease, and the third sister Shen Xiaozhao is different, she lowered her head, with both fear of facing the pressure of the concubines on her face, and faint disbelief in the eldest sister.

Shen Shuzhao actually doesn't want this third sister to think about it anymore now, I just hope that it is enough for her to remain silent.

After all, in terms of Gong Dou, she is still too tender.

Shen Shuzhao thought in his heart, he was reborn once, how could he say that he couldn't save all his experience in vain, right?

Following the Queen Mother, selling more of her palace fighting experience in her previous life, and not being in the position of a concubine, in the end, she can find a good future for herself and her mother. And it is not necessarily the longest way to be with the queen mother, there is still a queen in the harem, and the emperor, maybe there will be a new concubine force in the future.

Shen Shuzhao realized more firmly at this moment: where there is a palace fight, there is her role.

Concubine Xian looked at the beauty and said: "It's really beautiful, even more than Concubine Li Rou back then, Taishi Shen is really blessed." ”

When Concubine Xi heard this, she immediately replied coldly: "What are you doing with that woman?" It's not too bad to be angry. ”

"Yes."

Concubine Xian said softly, with some impossibility in her tone, she said: "Alas, after all these years, this palace is still a little embarrassed when I think about it. In the witch rebellion back then, sister, you were almost involved by that person, it was really dangerous. But don't mention it, no matter how good her appearance is, the emperor has always treated things fairly in the end, and gave Bai Aya to cut off the rest of her life. ”

Concubine Ling echoed: "What Niangniang said is extremely true. ”

Concubine Xian shook her fan lightly, as if she was completely ignoring the young ladies of the Shen family present, and muttered to herself: "This palace has been married to the prince's mansion since the age of sixteen, and at that age, she only thought about serving the emperor and the queen mother, and never thought that Concubine Rou was at the same age, but she took the wrong path at a young age, which is a pity." ”

Hearing this, sixteen-year-old Shen Zhuangzhao buried his head even more.

The queen mother told her the night she first entered the palace, don't show her edge, but now she has been forced to be on the cusp of the waves.

Now Shen Shuzhao is like a passerby, watching Shen Zhuangzhao make the first mistake in this harem because she is not deeply involved in the world, if she doesn't be confused by the kindness of people when she meets Concubine Ling, things will not come here step by step, but Shen Zhuangzhao has no consciousness that she has come to the harem.

Shen Shuzhao shook her head, she couldn't let Shen Zhuangzhao fall so quickly, otherwise all her hard work would be in vain.

Concubine Xi glanced at Shen Zhuangzhao, who looked helpless with his head down, and felt uncomfortable in her eyes, so she said, "My sister is right, I still don't have a good mind that shouldn't be." ”

Concubine Xian smiled and looked at Concubine Ling in front of her: "Today's palace was originally to go to Baijing Garden with Concubine Xi, but later Concubine Xi was tired of it, so the palace took her to go to the Furong Xuan in Qinxin Garden opposite, the Queen Mother planted some hibiscus newly, since you met Concubine Ling's sister here, why don't you go together?" ”

Concubine Ling smiled slightly, because of the opposition between her and Concubine Xi, when she was about to refuse, Concubine Xi suddenly interjected: "Then bring the young lady of the Shen family with you, but how can you not let her appreciate the flowers planted by the Queen Mother herself?" ”

Shen Zhuang Zhaocheng resigned in fear: "Where does the little girl dare to enjoy the flowers with the two concubines and concubines, the mothers are really too uplifting the people's daughters." ”

Concubine Xi looked at the end of the straight alley leading to Qinxin Garden and said, "What does Miss Shen mean, don't you want to go with the palace to a garden next to Changle Palace to enjoy the flowers?" ”

It's good now, Shen Zhuangzhao is offended if she doesn't go, and she doesn't know what kind of anger she will suffer, if she hadn't kept her head down, the tears rolling in her eyes would probably have been discovered.

"Concubine Hui Xi," Shen Shuzhao finally said, "The Queen Mother has a life, and the little girls are not allowed to leave Changle Palace without permission." So it's not that the eldest sister is unwilling. Concubine Xi Niang Niang Gui is one of the two concubines, trusted by the emperor to share the affairs of the six palaces for the queen, presumably Niangniang also understands that the palace rules are strict, not to be broken, I hope Niangniang understands. ”

Concubine Xi finally looked at Shen Shuzhao and said sternly: "This palace is talking to Miss Shen, who are you?" ”

Concubine Ling euphemistically mentioned: "This is the second miss of the Shen family, and the one next to me is the third miss of the Shen family......"

As soon as the words fell, Concubine Xi's voice instantly raised: "What-there are two more?" ”

That look, that tone, it's like saying to the Queen Mother, one is enough, and there are still three?

The atmosphere suddenly became delicate, and Shen Shuzhao and the three of them were now completely pushed to the front of the harem, and they could no longer retreat.

At this time, Concubine Xian could only smile awkwardly, although she was not Concubine Xi's person, it did not mean that she was not afraid of the Queen Mother like the Queen Mother and Concubine Xi.

"The Queen Mother has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and now there are three Miss Shen who serve the Queen Mother with filial piety, and there are many people working together, the Queen Mother should be pleased."

After Concubine Xian finished speaking, Shen Shuzhao took advantage of the situation to take it: "Yes, Concubine Xian is right, the Queen Mother has lived in Changle Palace for decades, and the number of times her mother's family has met in the past year is also only a handful, and the little woman and others are summoned to the palace by the Queen Mother, just to accompany the Queen Mother." Entering the palace is a rare blessing, and the ladies are invited every time, which really flatters the women, but the queen mother has an order first, and the little woman thinks that it is better to ask the queen mother for permission first. ”

In fact, for the concubines in the harem, these words are all said as if there is nothing, who doesn't want to be a concubine when entering the palace? In their eyes, Shen Shuzhao and the others are all people who are planning to become concubines, saying that they don't have this idea, who believes it, even Shen Shuzhao in his previous life has always had this idea before entering the palace.

Not only does the emperor think so, maybe even the eldest princess thinks so.

And Shen Zhuangzhao still listened with her head down, because as long as she raised her head, she could feel the gaze of Concubine Xi and Concubine Xian.

"Qinxin Garden is only a few steps away," Concubine Xian said regretfully, "Alas...... That's it, Miss Shen can't sell a face, and we don't have to be strong, carry the sedan chair and go. ”

After saying that, I want to leave.

"What do you mean by not being able to sell a face?"

A cold and arrogant voice rang out.

Concubine Xian followed the voice and looked at it, and was stunned for a moment.

The eldest princess Wei Yang led a group of Praetorian Guards and appeared in front of everyone from the corner, she stood there coldly, fearlessly looking directly at the eyes of Concubine Xi and Concubine Xian, her calm eyes exuded a confident brilliance, and the insurmountable invisible arrogance made the domineering two concubines respect at once.

"Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess."

Everyone saluted the emperor's sister together.

Wei Yang directly crossed over the people around her who bowed to her, looked directly into Concubine Xian's eyes, and asked, "Concubine Xian Niangniang's words just now were questioning the palace rules of the Queen Mother?" ”

An embarrassed smile appeared on the face of the person opposite: "Your Highness is serious, no, how dare the concubine be dissatisfied with the Queen Mother......"

"Since you are dissatisfied, then there is nothing to say."

Wei Yang looked at Concubine Xi, and then said: "Concubine Xi, June and July have always been a good period for lotus appreciation, and it is not too late to invite Miss Shen another day." ”

Concubine Xi lowered her upper body and said with a reluctant smile: "Yes." ”

Although the emperor's sister in front of her is the daughter of the queen mother, the emperor trusts her in political affairs and military power, and is a completely thoughtful and independent person between the emperor and the queen mother.

"If the concubine and the others still have to go to Qinxin Garden, then they won't stay longer."

After Concubine Xian finished speaking, she quickly left with Concubine Xi, and Concubine Ling had already known that it was not appropriate to stay for a long time, so she resigned and returned to Huayang Palace.

But in any case, they have already done what they need to do.

Originally, they were still protected by the Queen Mother, but within two days of entering the palace, they met with high-ranking concubines, and Shen Zhuangzhao was quickly pushed to the forefront, saying that no one was behind them, and no one believed it.

Shen Shuzhao looked at Wei Yang, the eldest princess who was dressed elegantly and had a long sword on her waist, from the first time she met her, she was in the very unusual peach blossom forest, seeing with her own eyes that her sword was bloody, and she asked her to roll with a cold face.

This time, when she was facing the difficulties of Concubine Xi and Concubine Xian, she used her noble identity and power to stand out for them in a few words, Shen Shuzhao felt that this eldest princess was really difficult to speculate.

She didn't know, should this person be close to the good, or far away from the good?

After all, in her previous life, she had never been in contact with her, and it seemed that the eldest princess was going to get married soon.

Shen Shuzhao remembered the day they got married in her previous life, and the moment they looked at each other, she saw a lot of her melancholy from it, and suddenly felt a little sympathetic.

Wei Yang's gaze fell on Miss Shen Jiazhong, who was always expressionless, but he still frowned slightly, and said, "How could I meet them?" ”

Shen Zhuangzhao had been looking at Wei Yang before, she couldn't believe that there was really a woman who could be as beautiful as her, and when she looked at it up close, it was really beautiful, and she was also the emperor's sister, so she couldn't help but feel a lot of good feelings from mutual appreciation, and immediately replied: "Back to Your Highness, the little girl and her party came out of the Queen Mother's Yongshou Palace, and they met the concubine who came to visit. Because the queen mother stayed in the palace for a long time, the concubine chatted with the little girl and others. ”

Wei Yang asked: "Do you still need to send it to the palace gate?" ”

Shen Zhuangzhao replied to her words: "Concubine Ling...... It turned out that she wanted to invite Zhuang Zhao and others to her Huayang Palace, but the little girl and the second sister both refused, so she ...... Let's send her to the gate of Changle Palace. ”

Hearing this, Wei Yang glanced at Shen Shuzhao again, this time with a deep meaning.

"Concubine Ling is the queen's person."

Wei Yang said to Shen Zhuangzhao in a flat tone, simple and straightforward.

After Shen Zhuangzhao heard it, she couldn't say anything for a while, she knew that she had taken it lightly.

"It's over, don't blame yourself too much." Wei Yang's attitude was a little more tactful, "Just don't let the Queen Mother know." ”

Shen Zhuangzhao nodded.

Wei Yang's gaze lightly skimmed over the faces of the palace maids standing behind Shen Zhuangzhao, these people all showed horror, they had been in such a mood since the moment they saw Concubine Xi and Concubine Xian.

Shen Zhuangzhao didn't understand, but they were all worried, if the eldest lady of the Shen family really followed, whether it was good or bad, the Queen Mother would not let any of them survive tomorrow!

Shen Shuzhao glanced at the palace maid beside her, even the always steady Huizhuang expression was a little unnatural, she sighed softly, in this harem, the lowest is the palace maid's life, but which of these palace maids is not the pearl of his own family?

Wei Yang, who was aware of this soft sigh, looked at Shen Shuzhao, who was far away from this incident but intervened.

"Are you going back to Qinglian Pavilion?"

She said.

Well? Shen Shuzhao raised her head and looked at the eldest princess who was still quite a leader standing in front of a group of black-clothed Praetorian Guards, her eyes met, she was stunned, and said to me?

"Go back ......"

Shen Shuzhao nodded, she really didn't want to let Shen Zhuangzhao run around anymore, never again.

"Send you."

Well? Shen Shuzhao felt incredible again.

However, she quickly thought for a moment, there might be more concubines coming to visit the Queen Mother's Changle Palace all afternoon, who knows who is just curious, and who is as uneasy and kind as the queen's people?

"Good ......"

Shen Shuzhao nodded again and said to the eldest princess in front of her, who had been staring at her.
