The cold plum is blooming, and the dark fragrance is moving. After the New Year, the harem of Nanzhao was stable and peaceful, and it was happy. But the previous dynasty did not have such leisure as the harem, although on the third day of the new year, Emperor Nanzhao's happiness only lasted until the Lantern Festival.

On the day of the restoration of the dynasty, Emperor Nanzhao received an urgent military report from the Jianghuai Black Brake Army. The Huaijiang River is the border of the left region of Nantang, adjacent to the left Huai. Zuo Huai was the king of the diligent and clear government, and after a series of government reforms after ascending the throne, Zuo Huai's national strength was booming. Zuohuai is on the Huaijiang River, down on the Yangjiang River, although it is a rich place, but the territory is narrow, and both sides of the border are leaning on the riverside, every time the national strength is greatly injured by waterlogging, the Zuohuai monarch therefore set his eyes on the Nantang of the same rich place across the river.

Nantang was well aware of Zuo Huai's ambitions, so the strong Black Brake Army had been stationed along the Huai River, and the two armies had been facing each other for a long time. The army has been stationed for a long time, and it is impossible to completely rely on the supply of grain and grass from the rear, and some of them have to be collected from the local people, and the army has been stationed for a long time, and it is inevitable that there will be a phenomenon of deliberately lowering prices and forcibly plundering grain and grass when collecting grain and grass. If the wind and rain are smooth, it is good in the harvest year, but the upper reaches of the Huaijiang River are sedimented and silted, and the Huaijiang River is easy to endanger both sides of the river every time it rains. Therefore, the people on the Huaijiang side of Nantang have already complained secretly, but the heavy army is pressed on the top of their heads, who dares to say more?

Last summer, there was a series of torrential rains, and this year's rain was the highest in the past decade. The grain cultivated on both sides of the Huai River was destroyed overnight, and people were displaced and homeless. Those who have relatives from other places have left their hometowns to seek refuge, but there are still many ancestors who live in the local area, and they do not want to leave their homeland and can only linger in the surrounding areas. Nantang is located in the hinterland of China, surrounded by large countries and small counties, the conquest is continuous, most of the treasury revenue is used on military supplies, although there is a disaster relief move for the Huaijiang River flood, but the treasury is empty, the food and silver money allocated is not much, and the layers from top to bottom are peeled, and the food in the hands of the people is less than a meal. In the summer and autumn, the local people can still find some wild grass bark to eat their stomachs, and when the winter is cold, the grass is exhausted, and even the wild grass bark is not eaten, and there is no house to avoid the cold, the people are resentful, and on the occasion of the New Year, they actually gather in front of the military fortress where the Black Brake Army is stationed, and ask for food and houses for the winter.

Where is the military blockade where ordinary people can enter if they want to? The commander of the Black Brake Army had the gate sealed, but did not control the people gathered under the blockade. After a few days of trouble, a passing Jianghu guest saw that the people were in rags, all of them were so hungry that they were yellow and thin, and they couldn't stand it anymore, so they took advantage of the unpreparedness of the defenders on the plug, crossed the wall and put the sword on the neck of the captain on duty, and forced him to open the door and let the victims into the city.

One person is hard to defeat four palms, not to mention that the Jianghu guest broke into the army alone? The charlatan was eventually shot at the wall. When he died, everyone under the wall was watching, and the victims had been resentful for a long time, which aroused the anger of the people for a while, and the victims actually took the shovels and plows they used on weekdays and began to storm the gate. The Black Brake defenders planned to ignore it, but the more and more people gathered, the situation began to be uncontrollable. The commander was also annoyed at this time, and was afraid that the matter would be transmitted back to Duling, and Emperor Nanzhao found out that they had forcibly seized the people's grain and other things on weekdays, and secretly embezzled grain and grass appropriations, and ordered the archers at the head of the wall to shoot arrows at the people who were killed by the disaster.

The commander of the Black Brake originally thought that those victims were a rabble, and as long as they were afraid of the arrows, they would naturally retreat. No one expected that there would be Zuo Huai's soldiers mixed among the victims. These soldiers were all dressed as disaster victims, encouraging the victims to continue the assault, and secretly transmitting the news back to Zuo Huai. At this time, the commander of the black brake was focused on the victims, and when the Zuo Huai army unknowingly crossed the river at night and appeared in front of the fortress, it was already too late.

The Zuohuai army came prepared, and the Black Brake army met the enemy in a hurry, although they fought hard to block this wave of Zuohuai raids, but the damage was not small. Now that the victims who originally demanded food and houses have been characterized as mobs, the commander of the Black Brake was angry, and after repelling the Zuohuai army, he went straight to the palace with a piece of paper, demanding that the local mob be killed in order to set an example and establish national prestige.

Speaking of suppressing the mob, it was a logical thing, and Emperor Nanzhao approved it after a little verification. The bad thing is that Zuo Huai has made a lot of trouble, and under the spread of people with intentions, it has spread all over Nantang in more than ten days. There are garrisons on the border of Nantang, and the situation is similar to that of the Zuohuai River. Emperor Nanzhao agreed to kill the mob, which really chilled the hearts of the people everywhere, and for a while, the rebels from all over the country rose up, and the left side destroyed the right side and came again, annoying Emperor Nanzhao so much that he was in the study day and night to deal with state affairs, and rarely had the time and mood to come to the harem.

Emperor Nanzhao did not enter the harem, and the harem concubines lost the center of gravity they used to rely on, and they moved back and forth more diligently to pass the time. Now Su Lingyu is the first person in the harem who is in full bloom, so naturally everyone runs to her side from time to time. Su Lingyu couldn't bear to be disturbed, so he simply moved directly into Yufeng Palace and didn't move anymore, and completely pushed Jun Yihuang out as a shield.

Su Lingyu is a permanent resident, where can Yufeng Palace still have the purity of the past. At first, the slaves and maids in the palace were not used to it, and they were all like facing the enemy in detail, but later they were tired, and they knew who should block, who should be present, and who did not need to ask, as long as the two masters were free, they could go directly to the guest room.

Fu Liuying came several times, and each time she stayed for a long time, so she was naturally classified as the last category by the people of Yufeng Palace. The weather was fine on this day, Fu Liuying brought the maid over early in the morning, and he didn't need the palace people to guide the way, so he went straight to the guest room to wait, but after a while, Jun Yihuang appeared in the guest room with Su Lingyu and a smile.

The three of them saw the ceremony, and Jun Yihuang and Su Lingyu all felt that Fu Liuying's expression was quite abnormal today, and they all looked like they wanted to talk several times when they saw the ceremony. Su Lingyu knew that Fu Liuying must have something to say, thinking that she was hindering the maids in the palace and it was difficult to speak, so after the maids served the tea fruits, Su Lingyu waved her hand to let people retreat, and waited for a while, but saw that Fu Liuying neither waved away the maids she brought, nor did she mean to speak.

Both of them are strange, because this is Yufeng Palace, Fu Liuying is a guest, even if she wants to stay in Yufeng Palace, she is still a maid in Yufeng Palace. On weekdays, Fu Liuying usually sends the maid out to play when she enters the guest room, not to mention that she clearly has something to say today, and it seems that she is not good at talking, how can she leave the maid by her side?

Even if Fu Liuying wanted to make a bad idea, he wouldn't be stupid enough to do it in the guest room of this palace attendant. Jun Yihuang and Su Lingyu hadn't figured it out yet, but she didn't expect the maid standing behind Fu Liuying to move into the hall, bend her knees, and kneel heavily on the hall.

Jun Yihuang and Su Lingyu were both stunned, and they didn't understand which one was going to make trouble. But after the maid raised her head, the two of them immediately came to their senses, and their eyes when they looked at Fu Liuying suddenly became a little colder.

The maid was dressed no different from the maid next to her, and she kept standing with her head down, and Jun Yihuang and the others didn't pay attention to it before. But although the maid is wrapped in light makeup, she has a hibiscus face and peach cheeks, apricot eyes like water, red lips, and a soft appearance, the only deficiency is that the face is smeared with powder to be extraordinarily white, and it still can't completely cover up the faint grass lines on the lower half of the powder's face.

Fu Liuying also stood up in a hurry at this time, made a big salute, and said, "Concubine Shu, Concubine Ning, this ...... This...... That one...... The concubine ......" for a long time, but she didn't say a whole word.

Jun Yi and Phoenix narrowed her eyes slightly, stared back and forth at the two of them with a teacup, and said lightly: "What is Concubine Jing doing?" Dressed like this and entering Yufeng Palace, you will inevitably lose your identity as a noble concubine. If Concubine Jing wants to come, she can hand over the post to the door, why should she be so aggrieved? ”

"This ...... Lady Niangniang. Hey, Ning Guifei! Jing Guifei, she is...... It's not that the concubine deliberately deceives, it's really ...... Ask Ning Guifei to help her! Fu Liuying obviously wanted to explain, but she didn't know where to start, the handkerchief in her hand was nervously tied to her hand, and then she was frightened by Jun Yihuang's sudden shelf, and her body was soft and she knelt on the ground, and her eyes immediately turned red.

"Concubine Shu, Concubine Ning, don't blame Fu Guiren. Fu Guiren was soft and kind-hearted, and the concubine repeatedly pleaded, Fu Guiren felt pity, so he agreed to let the concubine pretend to be a maid and come to Yufeng Palace with her. Xia Ruoqing saw Su Lingyu's eyebrows frowning slightly, and without waiting for Su Lingyu to speak, a wry smile appeared on her face, and continued: "The concubine knows that if the concubine herself hands over the prayer post and comes to Yufeng Palace, Concubine Shu and Concubine Ning Gui will definitely not meet the concubine." ”

Jun Yihuang snorted, and a surprised look appeared on his face: "Why did Concubine Jing say this?" Isn't this to blame Hongu for not knowing how to be hospitable? Besides, Concubine Jing is only one level below the palace, and she is at the same level as Concubine Ning, how can she kneel on the ground? In winter, the ground is cold and hurts, so please get up first. If there's anything to sit down and talk about, it's just that. ”

Having said that, Jun Yihuang still sat upright on the chair, and did not mean to approach Xia Ruoqing to help people get up, his eyes were full of vigilance, carefully watching Xia Ruoqing's every move, and thinking about them one by one in his heart. Xia Ruoqing is kneeling at the moment, if she immediately summons Gong E in, the news will spread in the future, and this palace often spreads falsehoods, and in the end, I am afraid that it will be useless for me. But Jun Yihuang has been in the harem for more than ten years, knows all kinds of methods in the palace, and is really afraid of Xia Ruoqing in his heart, and he is not willing to approach Xia Ruoqing's side to let her seize half a chance, I just hope that I can coax people up with words first, and then call a few maids to come in and send people away.

What kind of person is Xia Ruoqing, how could he not guess what Jun Yihuang meant, hearing this, not only did his knees not move, but his hands were folded in front of him, his forehead touched the ground, and he made an extremely solemn national salute.

Jun Yihuang and Su Lingyu exchanged glances, both of them had a little headache. The two never thought that Xia Ruoqing would enter Yufeng Palace, and even if they came, they were afraid that it would be to avenge their father. However, thousands of calculations are not as good as heaven's calculations, and now people are not only here, but their posture is so soft that people can't get close, persuade or catch up, and they really feel a little bit helpless for a while.
