One sentence immediately pulled back Shen Shuzhao's thoughts, she gathered the green silk, smelled the fragrance and replied flatly: "What the little woman did was just for sisterhood." ”

The eldest princess Wei Yang glanced sideways slightly, and her tone was quite meaningful: "The second lady is indeed a kind person, and she deserves to be a famous filial daughter in the capital." ”

"Don't dare to be," Shen Shuzhao lowered his head and smiled, and his eyes were also dyed with nostalgia when he looked up, "Shuzhao has always been behind the eldest sister when she was a child, and the eldest sister has always been kind to Shuzhao over the years, and now she has entered the palace with the queen mother, and the little woman only thinks that the eldest sister can get the happiness she wants." ”

As she spoke, she gently looked into the distance of Qinglian Pavilion, and said with a lonely expression: "But Shuzhao now finds that this palace is not as beautiful as Shuzhao and the eldest sister expected......

The last sigh was gently hidden in the wind.

Wei Yang looked at her for a long time and let out a long hum, as if he understood.

However, Shen Shuzhao didn't think so in her heart, but she felt that the Queen Mother was likely to let her clean up the mess for Shen Zhuangzhao this time, and I have to say that Shen Zhuangzhao also gave herself a chance to show her feelings, as for what kind of sisterhood, it was purely a matter of words.

"Princess," Shen Shuzhao turned around, wanting to say something, but after a pause, he finally said, "Your Highness sent us back to Qinglian Pavilion today, in fact, to let the little girl and the others and the palace maid avoid being punished by the Queen Mother, right?" ”

The person on the other side was silent, and then she blessed her body, and said sincerely: "The eldest sister was passed to the queen mother, and the younger sister is not sensible, so Shuzhao thanked the princess for their kindness." ”

Wei Yang sighed and said slowly, "...... Second Miss doesn't have to be so polite to me. ”

"The princess is indeed kind," Shen Shuzhao said, "If the princess is not here, I'm afraid those palace people would have already been sent to the court for punishment, although the little woman knew that she shouldn't say it, but the queen mother was really angry this time." ”

"The Queen Mother has not been in good health recently, and her heart is unstable, so it is inevitable that she will be more angry this time."

Seeing that Wei Yang finally said so, Shen Shuzhao took advantage of the situation and said: "No wonder Shuzhao looks so bad every time she sees the Queen Mother. The little woman is very worried about the queen mother's body, why is this? ”

At this time, Wei Yang turned her head playfully, and the soft green silk slipped on her shoulders, and she smiled faintly: "This...... You should ask the Queen Mother. ”

With that smile, as if something had been scratched in his heart, Shen Shuzhao looked away. Although the person opposite is still playing Tai Chi with her on the topic, he somehow doesn't want to talk now, and just wants to avoid her eyes.

Shen Shuzhao straightened her sideburns, don't look over it, and pretend that she was enjoying the scenery.

There were a few sounds of pearl and jade earrings clinking beside him, and it turned out that the eldest princess was gently leaning on the carved lotus railing, and Wei Yang took Shen Shuzhao's previous subconscious avoidance of their staggered gaze in his eyes.

"Do you want to be a concubine?"

Wei Yang asked, in a light tone.

In front of the sparkling lotus pond, carp swim around in the clear stream, and a rootless broken lotus leaf floats down from the upstream, wandering in it without settlement, always disturbing a group of swimming fish that gather.

For concubines? Shen Shuzhao's eyes dimmed as she looked at the scenery, could it be that from the Shen Mansion, she must fall victim to the secret fight between the Queen Mother and the Emperor? From beginning to end, the previous life was just a dream of Nanke, including glory and wealth, as well as feelings.

Thinking of this, Shen Shuzhao smiled lightly, in fact, she was much more relieved now than when she was first reborn.

All she has to do in this life is to be thoughtful and not to be a victim, no matter what the cost.

So she said, "The little girl doesn't want to. Because in this world, not only entering the palace as a concubine is the best. ”

The failure and life and death in her previous life made her understand a lot, and the road that seemed to be infinitely beautiful and unattractive in this life should be left to Shen Zhuangzhao.

In fact, Shen Shuzhao really wanted to learn some things from the princess next to her who was about to retire from the stage of history, such as the queen mother's previous life in a hurry to marry a daughter within a month, but according to this person's personality, it is really difficult.

Shen Shuzhao sighed in his heart, it seems that the days to come will be long, and his gaze at the floating leaf is also a little worried.

Suddenly, the fragrance of indifference and detachment suddenly became rich, gently stirring the tip of her nose all the time, and before Shen Shuzhao came back to her senses, Wei Yang's voice close at hand appeared in her ears: "Second Miss can think like this, naturally it's good." ”

Shen Shuzhao hesitated for a moment, but she still turned her head, and when her eyes met, the only time they looked at each other in her previous life—that amazing feeling returned. This close contact made Shen Shuzhao find that the beauty was really like wine when she looked closely, and the more she tasted it, the more beautiful it became, and she suddenly became a little envious.

Wei Yang lowered his head and looked at Shen Shuzhao, she was much taller than Shen Shuzhao, the two of them looked at each other, and they didn't say a word to each other.

The atmosphere was a little awkward. Shen Shuzhao actually originally wanted to take this opportunity to ease this delicate relationship with the eldest princess, but now it is ...... More subtle?

"Miss Shen Er," although Wei Yang was from a condescending angle, she was not half arrogant, and her tone was much more relaxed than when she first met, "Maybe the Queen Mother will come to you in a while, it is better for you to stay in the house at this moment." ”

Shen Shuzhao once again staggered their gaze and replied, "Yes, eldest princess, the little woman will leave first." ”

"Well, go ahead."

After Shen Shuzhao saluted, she turned her back and left in a hurry, her moon-white skirt scattered on the ground as she walked, like uncalm ripples.

Back in the west wing, several Shen Zhuangzhao's palace people gathered in a small corner, putting on a bitter melon seed face and being silent, and lost the vitality of a young woman on weekdays. The third-class palace people who are doing things back and forth are not like the gags in the past, and they leave quickly after they are busy with their heads down.

Shen Shuzhao thought about it, she pushed the door and walked into the inner room, Huizhuang quickly served tea for her, and the tea gradually overflowed the teacup, but when the tea was poured, Huizhuang's eyes were very scattered when he looked at the tea.

Shen Shuzhao looked at her very kindly and asked gently, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Huizhuang blushed and immediately said apologetically, "It's nothing...... The slave maid was just distracted, so that the second lady could see that it was really a slave and maid. ”

Picking up the teacup and taking a sip, Shen Shuzhao replied to her at the same time: "How can Miss Ben blame you, you are uncertain now, I can understand." ”

After saying that, she glanced at the palace people around her, and her face was undoubtedly not holding back a little worry, and the corners of her mouth hidden behind her long sleeves rose slightly.

Shen Shuzhao gently put down the teacup, but frowned, sighed, and said: "In the corridor, the eldest princess has already told me alone, the matter of the eldest sister is indeed a little difficult to handle, and the queen mother looks very angry, because this is the first time such a thing has appeared in her Changle Palace." Don't say that the eldest sister has a good heart and is unsuspecting, as the palace maid of Qinglian Pavilion, she really didn't do her part to remind her well......"

"The slaves and maids know," Hui Zhuang said calmly, "if the queen mother is punished, they are willing to accept it." ”

Looking at her appearance, Shen Shuzhao really still had some appreciation, so she continued: "Even so, you are all palace people who follow me, and you are not the first to meet Concubine Ling, so the Queen Mother will punish you less." ”

All the palace people in the house smiled bitterly, is it useless, who doesn't know the harshness of the Queen Mother? They were all sent over to take care of these three young ladies, but now they collided with three high-ranking concubines in Changle Palace, how could the Queen Mother not punish them?

Shen Shuzhao looked at them, smiled and said nothing, these girls who were about the same age as her in this life had been palace maids in the palace for several years, so they always habitually went to the thoughts of the following people to figure out the thoughts of the master.

But in fact, in order to really learn how to do things under a certain master, you also have to think about things in terms of his own thoughts.

Although the Queen Mother was angry that Concubine Ling provoked the relationship between her niece and Concubine Xi, no matter what she said, it was useless to punish her own people, but would make everyone complain about Shen Zhuangzhao, which was very unfavorable to this best chess piece.

And if someone gives the Queen Mother steps and lets her go down and waive the punishment, this will be a great joy.

Shen Shuzhao didn't think much about it, and the Queen Mother finally let others think that it was the eldest sister Shen Zhuangzhao who came forward to intercede, so she was exempted from the punishment of the palace people.

But in her own place, she has to fool her palace maid a few words first, not to mention that these people are not her own people.

So she opened her mouth and swore and said: "You don't have to worry too much, today I will go to the Yongshou Palace to serve the Queen Mother, I have my own way to intercede for you, and the Queen Mother will not punish innocent people casually." ”

A few palace people who didn't have much hope suddenly felt at ease after hearing this, no wonder they, after all, judging from the current appearance of the three young ladies, only Shen Shuzhao has the most stable words and deeds.

Not only Huizhuang in front of her, but also Lu Rong Ruoyun and Wang Xian and others all blessed her body, and said in gratitude: "The slaves and maids have thanked the second lady. ”

Shen Shuzhao nodded with satisfaction, and said calmly: "After peace of mind, do things well, let's quit first." ”

Everyone said that they all retreated outside the house in the future, and in this not very small room, only Shen Shuzhao was left.

Shen Shuzhao stared at the flowers inserted in the vase on the carved table, smelling the faint fragrance, recalling that the distance between Fang Cai and Wei Yang was so close, and she stroked the pure white petals as if she were in a fugue.

Eldest princess, what kind of person is she......

Shen Shuzhao's fingertips outlined the outline of the petals, and she pondered, unable to get an answer in her heart.

Before, I thought that this was just a beauty who couldn't decide her fate in the power and art dispute, but after entering the palace in advance in this life, I felt that such a calm and knowledgeable woman in martial arts really didn't look like a person who would be willing to be a sacrifice.

So what went wrong?

Shen Shuzhao faintly thought from his heart that the eldest princess's political marriage was related to the queen mother's abandonment of her eldest daughter and her choice to enter the palace by herself.

Smelling the similar fragrance, she raised her hand to her head, thinking about the benefits.

Maybe...... The next time they meet again, she'll get the answer.
