There is a lotus platform on the shore of Biying Lake and is built near the water, and the white stone is paved with Hanyu as the railing, which is wide and flat. Standing on the stage and looking at the water surface of an infinite green leaf pavilion, it is refreshing to watch.

The fifteen Baolin, who lived here for three or four days, gradually became acquainted, and after learning the etiquette every day, they often invited three or five to enjoy the scenery and cool scenery on the lotus viewing platform.

After dinner, the sun is sinking, and the sky is dyed red with clouds. Lin Yuzhen pulled her mustache and tied a pair of small beads. Wearing a light sari robe, she pulled Mo Lanyi and ran to ask Zangjiao with a smile: "Sister Jin, can the three of us go to Guanlian Terrace to relax together?" ”

Zangjiao happened to wash her hair, and after her wet black silk was scattered, He'er wiped it with a handkerchief. He smiled and said, "Look at me, how can I go like this?" You and Lan Yi go first. I'll come back to you when I'm dry. ”

"It's okay, then sister come quickly." Lin Yuzhen took Mo Lanyi to the lotus viewing platform, the two talked and laughed and walked to the bottom of the lotus viewing platform, and saw that there were already a few women standing above.

Mo Lanyi looked at it carefully and said: "It's with a few Baolin from Yunxuan, and our sister Duanmu from the same state is also there, since we met, let's go up and salute." ”

Lin Yuzhen pouted and didn't want to go: "I don't want to go, they all say that the people who live in Yunxuan are all high-ranking nobles, and they will be promoted to the throne after the face of the saint is decided." Let's go up like this, don't be bored. ”

"Probably not, Sister Duanmu, we have also met in the post house, very kind and kind. If you don't want to go, stay here and wait for me, and I'll be back when I've seen the ceremony. Moranyi said with a smile.

"That's it, how embarrassed to let you go alone, I'll go with you." Lin Yuzhen was reluctant to follow behind Mo Lanyi and walked towards Duanmu Ying and the others.

Duanmu Yingyun bun hanged low, wearing a silver silk bead crown, his spirit was flying, leaning on the jade fence and Yan Qiaoyue, the daughter of Changping County, and Cao Caidie, the daughter of the riding captain, pointed to a few winged dragonflies on the lotus leaf and laughed and chatted.

Mo Lanyi stepped forward with a smile and bowed slightly to Duanmu Ying: "Sister Duanmu is good, two Baolin are good." Duanmu Ying looked at her and was slightly stunned, raised her eyebrows and smiled faintly: "Oh~ It turned out to be Sister Mo, I have never seen it, how is Sister Mo?" I want to congratulate Sister Mo on her ascension to the sky. ”

Next to her, Yan Qiaoyue raised her chin slightly and looked at Mo Lan Yilin Yuzhen, her eyes swept over the ordinary hairpin ring clothes on the two of them, and she turned her head to look at a blue lotus in the water without making a sound. Cao Caidie laughed out loud:

"Sister Duanmu is so funny, some people don't think it's just a step to the sky. It's just that it's still high this day. Her voice was high-pitched, and a pair of flying and slanting hanging eyes stared at a pair of fake bluestone pendants in Mo Lanyi's ears, extremely contemptuous and arrogant.

Lin Yuzhen pulled the sleeve of Mo Lanyi, who was silent, and muttered softly: "Don't come, you want to come, but it's not interesting, right?" Let's go back quickly. He took her and turned to leave.

"Slowly" Yan Qiaoyue raised her chin and said slowly: "Why are you two so ignorant of etiquette, knowing that we are here to enjoy the game, you want to come up and disturb." After disturbing and turning around, whose rule is it? ”

"Sister Yan also asked more, naturally it is the rule of the small family." Cao Caidie covered her mouth and smiled sarcastically. Mo Lanyi bit her lip and bowed her head to salute again: "It was I who was abrupt and presumptuous and disturbed a few Baolin Yaxing, so I took my leave." ”

"Heh, it's such a big shelf, you said you could just come and go?" Do you know that Sister Yan is the daughter of Pingchang County, Sister Duanmu is the daughter of the monarch of Pingzhou Mansion, and my father is also the governor of Beijing. You don't do it politely, and you don't take us seriously. "Cao Caidie is unrelenting.

Lin Yuzhen stared at her with wide eyes: "You guys are so unreasonable, this is not outside the palace." Everyone is a new Baolin, and who is more noble than whom. Why do you want Sister Mo to salute you? Can you afford it? ”

Hearing a snap, Cao Caidie waved her hand and slapped Lin Yuzhen's face, and a red mark suddenly appeared. "What a guts! It's up to you to wait for these petty officials. I also dare to claim that Baolin's export is not inferior, and today I will teach you a lesson for Sister Yan! ”

Lin Yuzhen covered her face and staggered back a few steps, Mo Lanyi hurriedly stopped in front of her and exclaimed: "How can you beat people at will, aren't you afraid of palace decrees and punishments!" ”

Cao Caiyi turned his head and sneered: "Don't say that when you see us in a few days, you will pay homage, and now we are also much nobler to you." I can not only hit her, but I can also hit you. As he spoke, he raised his hand again.

"Stop!" A clear shout came, but it was Zangjiao who hurriedly stepped forward with He'er Lianbu and reached out to catch Cao Caiyi's wrist. There are two long eyebrows on the white face, frowning, and a pair of watery eyes are cold:

"These days, listening to the etiquette teachings of the lady concubine Niangniang's palace, the harem has always been peaceful and quiet, and I don't want this Baolin to dare to be the first. actually scolded the equal sisters for no reason. I don't know what to rely on? ”

Cao Caiyi's wrist was pinched tightly by Zangjiao, and there was a faint pain, and she shook her hands in shock and anger: "Who are you?" Running here to meddle around. Could it be that she is also a new show girl in the Xixing Pavilion, do you know who we are. ”

Zang Jiao withdrew her hand and said: "Everyone is a lady who was elected to the palace by three mothers, and they are all equal regardless of their family background before the face of the saint. If this Baolin is a bit of a deceptive family background, let's go to the palace order to find out. The voice was as cold as ice, word by word.

Yan Qiaoyue stood behind and quietly glanced at Duanmu Ying, Duanmu Ying hurriedly smiled Yingying walked up and pulled away Cao Caiyi and said: "Who is my Dao, it turned out to be Sister Jin, I am glad that there is another lady in my state."

I saw that Sister Jin was gentle and demure that day, but I didn't know that she was so sharp. Everyone is a sister in the palace, and it's just a matter of exposing the occasional misunderstanding, so why bother to go to the palace order where everyone is not interested. ”

Mo Lanyi held Lin Yuzhen with one hand, and gently pulled Zangjiao with the other: "Forget it, sister." Yuzhen's face is only afraid that she will go back and apply it quickly, otherwise she will be red tomorrow and teach her to see what happened. Lin Yuzhen also covered her face and whispered: "Sister, don't be angry, I don't hurt." Let's get back quickly. ”

Zang Jiao looked at the two of her and sighed, looked up and said to Duanmu Ying: "Zang Jiao is thanks to Sister Duanmu all the way, so that she can get to the capital safely, and she is cared for by Sister Jie in the post house. Zangjiao misses her sister very much.

It's just that Sister Mo is also the daughter of a subordinate official of the government of the government, and her father is too, and everyone has the same friendship in one state. If Sister Mo was insulted for no reason, it was rumored that my sister's face would be dull, and outsiders would be so cold when they saw me Pingzhou's daughter. ”

Duanmu Ying's face was slightly moved, and she smiled reluctantly: "What my sister said is, I said that how can such a gentle person as Sister Jin be angry, my daughter in Pingzhou is naturally single-minded." Zangjiao didn't say more, and slightly blessed Duanmu, so He'er hugged Lin Yuzhen and took Mo Lanyi back to the Cherishing Star Pavilion.

Behind her, Cao Caiyi's eyes were full of resentment and staring at her back, and she said viciously: "Sister Duanmu, what is the origin of this woman surnamed Jin, so arrogant." I thought I was a mother. When it's settled, I'll make her look good! ”

Duanmu Ying suddenly remembered Mama Hu's words in her heart, "This Jin lady looks gentle and warm, and her complexion is also superior, she is from the lowest background, but she is not humble or arrogant, if the lady meets her in the palace, it is better to attract more, although it is a low position, there is more or less friendship to take care of by peers." ”

Seeing that she was stunned and speechless, Cao Caiyi snorted from her nose and said to Yan Qiaoyue: "Sister Yan, let's go back." These broken lotus leaves are nothing to look at, and I won't be too lazy to come in the future. ”

Yan Qiaoyue curled the corners of her mouth and smiled, but did not speak, gently flicked her sleeves, and left with her head raised alone. The left are the stunned Cao Caiyi and the thoughtful Duanmu Ying.

Zangjiao and Mo Lanyi escorted Lin Yuzhen back to Xixing Pavilion, and when they helped her to sit down by the window to watch, they saw a red mark on Bai Nen's face, mixed with a few traces of blood. Mo Lanyi lost his voice: "How could you hit it so hard, it must have been scratched by her fingernails, how good is this!" Lin Yuzhen was silent all the way, and only then did she cry loudly.

"Don't weep, for if tears seep into the wound, it will not heal." A crisp voice came from the side, but it was Mei Caiping, the daughter of the medical officer of the Taiyi Bureau in the same room. She had a snow-white complexion, blue eyebrows, and dark hair in a thick braid. walked up and picked up Lin Yuzhen's face and looked at the light carefully.

Turning around and rummaging in a small box of curved willow wood carvings next to his couch for a while, he took out a small white porcelain jar and handed it to Lin Yuzhen: "This is the centella asiatica carefully prepared by my father, first wash my face with cold boiled water and apply it, your scratches are not deep, and you can recover in two days, and there will be no scars." ”

Lin Yuzhen took the ointment and choked and said, "Thank you, sister, A-Niang told me at home that the things given by the people in the palace should not be used indiscriminately." Sister, you won't hurt me, right? Mei Caiping looked at her with wide eyes, as if she was smiling and angry.

Zangjiao hid her mouth and chuckled, got up and took the ointment from her hand and bowed slightly to Mei Caiping: "Thank you, Sister Mei." Yuzhen is innocent and speaks without thinking. Don't blame Sister Wangmei. ”

Mei Caiping smiled brightly and revealed snow-white shell teeth: "There is no need to be polite, living in the same place is fate." My father's medical skills are very superb but he will not meet them, and now he is still a seven-grade doctor in the Taiyi Bureau. I learned a lot of medical skills from him, and if there are some minor illnesses and difficulties, just look for me. It's Sister Lin, why did you go out in a moment and get it like this? ”

Mo Lanyi cried beside him: "It's all my fault, I took Yuzhen to Guanliantai to enjoy the fun, but I met the Duanmu lady of the Jun family in the same state capital." Because he had received some favors from her in the inn, he went up to say hello. As a result, Cao Baolin was ridiculed, Yuzhen spoke up, and was slapped by her, if it wasn't for Sister Jin coming, I'm afraid I would also be beaten. ”

Zangjiao sighed softly, wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and instructed Lin Yuzhen's maid Xiao Tao to fetch water to wash her face and use medicine with her mother-in-law. Stroked Mo Lanyi's shoulder and said, "You don't have to blame yourself, who would have thought that they would be so strong when they first entered the palace." Although my words are hard, my heart is apprehensive.

Although it is the same Baolin regardless of family background, how can it be? They are either from high backgrounds, or their relationships in Beijing and China are intricately intertwined, and they can easily offend some hidden dangers in the future. In the future, we should be cautious in our words and deeds, and we will not be found by others. The punishment is small, but it is a big deal if it affects the family. ”

Mo Lanyi nodded and wept, Lin Yuzhen lowered her head and was silent, but she secretly said fiercely in her heart, if there is a **** who gets grace, she will definitely return this palm of hatred!

The curtain in Yuxiu Palace is fluttering, and the silver lamp is high. As the only concubine in the palace who raised the prince, the furnishings in the Yuxiu Palace are all exquisite and luxurious, almost comparable to the queen's middle palace. The Queen Mother, who has always admired elegance and simplicity, only turned a blind eye to the magnificence of Yuxiu Palace.

The concubine who has passed the age of flower letter but is still as bright and dazzling as a girl has a rich face, her plump and white fingers are smeared with bright red Kodan, and the soft long hair of the snow-white blue-eyed cat in her arms slowly walks around in the wide palace room, and the long shawl slides like flowing water on the smooth floor.

Shanggong Yilan, who was close to her, followed behind her and whispered about the matter, Concubine Shu raised her eyes and glanced at Yilan, her voice was as magnetic as nephrite, and she said lightly: "So, it was Cao Baolin who slapped Lin Baolin on the lotus viewing platform?" Someone else didn't do it? ”

Qiu Yi Gongling's eyebrows and eyes were flat, but his eyes were shrewd and sharp: "Yes, only Cao Baolin made a move, and he was going to beat Mo Baolin again, but he was stopped by Jin Baolin who rushed over." Li Wanyi's cousin, Duanmu Ying, broke them apart. Yan Baolin did not move. ”

"Oh~~ Li Wanyi has always done these things to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and then pretend to be a good person. I didn't expect that a cousin would also be a general style, but it was really the family history of the sisters, and this harem would be lively in the future. ”

Yilan said in a deep voice: "Niangniang is in charge of the harem, so she sent someone Yi'an and others to teach etiquette." They dare to ignore the palace rules and fight each other privately, which is really audacious, but they want the slave to order people to punish them heavily. ”

"No~~ Why do you want to go" Concubine Shu lazily waved her hand, "The four concubines in the harem are missing two, and the nine concubines are not full, it has been so lonely for too long, it is easy to come to this many people are lively and lively, how can you suppress your temperament like this.

The queen has not been doing anything for a long time, and the palace has not watched a good show, so let them make a fuss. I want to see how long this has always been advertised as peaceful can be peaceful? ”
