Lai Zhaoyi's Lifang Palace, since the Xu family was beaten into the court prison by Liqing, it has been much more deserted here, and there was a Xu Luoxin here in the past, although it was arrogant and coquettish, but it also made this palace a little more lively. But now that people are suffering in the courting prison, Lai Zhaoyi has long passed the turbulent age, and she has also returned to her previous tranquility.

Lai Zhaoyi was summoned to Lifang Palace, and after bowing, Qin Shujiu sat down, although Lai Zhaoyi is the lord of this Lifang Palace, but the layout of this palace is also light, and there is a lot of difference between the Xu family and the time when the Xu family is still there, so people can't believe that this is the bedroom of the lord of the palace.

This is the first time Qin Shujiu has entered Lai Zhaoyi's bedroom, and he has also paid attention to it, although it is not very obvious, but Lai Zhaoyi still sees it in his eyes, and immediately says: "What are I looking at?" Seeing Lai Zhaoyi ask like this, Qin Shujiu immediately retracted his thoughts and looked at it, and then said respectfully: "If you go back to Zhaoyi, you don't see anything, just think about how Zhaoyi said that she is also the head of the nine concubines under the four concubines, how can the layout of this bedroom be ......?"

"How can you be so pure?"

Before Qin Shujiu finished speaking, Lai Zhaoyi finished answering the words for her, and after speaking, Lai Zhaoyi said: "Gold, silver and porcelain are just things outside the body, and this palace doesn't like them. The long breath said such words, but when he heard it, he saw through the red dust a little, and such words should make Qin Shujiu respectful, and he should respond to the Tao at the moment.

"Zhaoyi's sex is like lotus and even like snow, but it is admired by the concubines."

"My fair beauties are too much, but if the temperament of people is different, there is nothing to admire." This Qin Shujiu's admiration, Lai Zhaoyi didn't plan to take it, and said with a smile, the people in the harem served tea. Holding the green hanging porcelain tea bowl, the palace people served the tea and put it on the side of Qin Shujiu, gently put down the teacup and then retreated. When the palace people served tea, Qin Shujiu had already paid attention to this teacup, and after the tea was placed on the side, he looked at it seriously.

Xu saw that Qin Shujiu had a heart for the tea bowl, and Lai Zhaoyi said: "It was rewarded by His Majesty when he first entered the palace in the previous year, although it has been used for more than ten years, but because it is His Majesty's reward, it has been used, and the beauty of many years should not feel that the palace intends to treat you badly." ”

As soon as these words fell, Qin Shujiu hurriedly took his eyes off the cup, and then said: "This thing was rewarded by His Majesty when Zhaoyi entered the palace, that is Zhaoyi's beloved thing, Zhaoyi used this thing to give this tea to the concubine, how could the concubine feel that Zhaoyi was treated badly?" ”

Entering the palace Liqing is the first reward, which is a precious thing for the concubines, and it is also a valuable thing. Qin Shujiu is not an unreasonable person, and naturally he will not be unhappy because of the obsolescence of this thing, and getting along with such a person can also save a lot of thoughts, seeing that Qin Shujiu is so clear, Lai Zhaoyi is also full of heart and said.

"My fair beauties are here to patronize and talk, come, that's the new West Lake Longjing here in this palace, how about my fair beauties taste."

After the tea is served, if you don't take advantage of the tea to still eight minutes, the fragrance of the tea will be light, since Lai Zhaoyi has said, then Qin Shujiu is not polite, and then he took the tea and then used the tea lid to slightly dial the tea hanging in the bowl. After setting it aside and blocking it with a tea lid, Qin Shujiu tasted it. After taking a sip, and then taking a light sip of the tea fragrance, Qin Shujiu sighed.

"The tea has a mellow fragrance and green color, which is an extremely rare and good tea." After speaking, he took another sip, and Qin Shujiu replied: "Smelling the light fragrance of this tea, it seems to have a sweet fragrance in the mouth, and it seems to be a tribute from Hanglingyin Temple that day." opened his mouth to express his judgment, Qin Shujiu also said it clearly, and when he said this, he saw that Lai Zhaoyi was a little surprised in his eyes, and then nodded and said.

"My fair beauties are really doing everything, no wonder Your Majesty spoils you so much, this tea is indeed produced in Tianhang Lingyin Temple, it is unique in that temple, because Your Majesty loves to know that the good tea in this palace has rewarded these. I haven't tasted it when I just came to the palace in the past few days, and I met my fair lady in Yanying Hall today because I wanted to take the opportunity to be embarrassed, but I didn't think that my fair lady guessed it. ”

can accurately tell where the tea comes from, but Qin Shujiu is also a smart and powerful person, so he can't help but sigh without relying on Zhaoyi. Accepting Lai Zhaoyi's appreciation of Qin Shujiu, he should be grateful, and put the teacup back on the table with one hand, and when the bottom of the cup was about to touch the tabletop, Qin Shujiu subconsciously touched the table with his tail finger to cushion. Because the tail finger was the first step to prop up, the teacup was placed on the table without making a sound. After putting it down like this, Qin Shujiu got up and planned to thank Lai Zhaoyi for his praise, but who knew that this time he saw Lai Zhaoyi sitting on the top and looking at her.

The sudden sight of Qin Shujiu made Qin Shujiu have a kind of misunderstanding that people could see through, and his heart was inexplicably disappointed at the moment, and he couldn't say that he was inexplicably stable but extremely fast, Qin Shujiu called: "Zhaoyi? He didn't ask but called softly, and this light call pulled Lai Zhaoyi's mind back, and after seeing Lai Zhaoyi return to his senses, Qin Shujiu asked, "What is Zhaoyi looking at?" ”

"Of course I'm looking at you." is also outspoken, Lai Zhaoyi's blunt remarks made Qin Shujiu confused, and he was puzzled: "But why did the concubine lose her manners?" If you lose your demeanor in front of Zhaoyi, you still hope that Zhaoyi is not strange. ”

"My fair beauty is the most humble and polite, and whoever in this palace may lose his manners will definitely not be a fair beauty, my fair beauty is rest assured."

"That Zhaoyi is just ......"

Since it wasn't something that was wrong, how could Lai Zhaoyi stare at him with such a cold look. It's really chilling, the staring eye just now is definitely not Qin Shujiu's illusion, because it is too real, she has to get to the bottom of it, but Lai Zhaoyi's reply can't explain her weird feeling.

It is not like Qin Shujiu's uncertainty in his heart at this time, Lai Zhaoyi's tone sounds normal, and he nodded and replied: "This palace just wants to take a closer look, this can make Your Majesty praise the intelligent beauty on the tip of his heart, what kind of immortal posture is it, and now this serious closer look is so bad that His Majesty really spoils you like that, and you are allowed to enter the Yanying Hall from time to time to serve." ”

It is impossible to tell how much of the words that come out of the smile are true and how much is false. No matter how pleasant the words in the palace sound, they can't all be taken seriously, especially the words of this superior, they must be humble, and Qin Shujiu responded at the moment.

"How can the concubine He De be praised like Zhaoyi, even if His Majesty can often serve in the Yanying Palace, it is because of His Majesty's whim. No matter how good the appearance is, there will eventually be a weakening time, even if the concubine really has a little color, but for His Majesty, it is not as decisive as serving in the Zhaoyi Palace for many years. ”

"Not only is she cute, but she is also very heart-alike, and my fair beauties are really loved. Although you have always been so humble, the beauty of the palace is real. Although this palace does not dare to say that it can see through His Majesty, but it has also served by His Majesty's side for many years, and some of His Majesty's thoughts can still be seen through. His Majesty's treatment of beauties is really different from others. Although the beauty has a light temperament and doesn't like this harem fight, it's not a good thing to be blindly light in this palace, and the beauty is a smart person, and I think I understand the meaning of this palace. ”

No matter how good the years are, there will eventually be a time when they will decline, if they don't fight for anything, they will only end up in a place where everyone can trample on, Lai Zhaoyi's meaning Qin Shujiu certainly understands. It's just why she wants to tell herself this, Qin Shujiu doesn't know this, but her kindness is also the point, so she got up and bowed down immediately, Qin Shujiu thanked: "Thank you Zhaoyi for your advice, the concubine will remember it." ”

"Now that it's clear, then the palace will be at ease." smiled and nodded, and after nodding, Lai Zhaoyi said: "Every time I meet a beauty, I always forget about other things, and look, I forget what I called you here today." After the words fell, I saw Lai Zhaoyi call the palace people in the palace, and then the palace people served out the food, two plates of fragrant and delicious pastries, moon-white white, the pastry was wrapped in a layer of fluffy pale yellow cake crumbs, and the grains were stacked on the plate round and delicate, and Yingying fell there.

Before and after the pastry was placed on Qin Shujiu, Lai Zhaoyi said: "This is a pastry made by the palace, my fair lady can try it?" ”

Lai Zhaoyi's own pastry, this has to be worried, after all, she just sent a pine nut cake to Liqing, although this pine nut cake is not dead, but sticking a little is also troublesome for Qin Shujiu. Looking at the pastry on the table, Qin Shu didn't take the wine immediately, and after a moment of thought, Lai Zhaoyi smiled and said, "What?" Could it be that my fair lady was afraid of the pastries in this palace because of the poisoning of the Xu family? ”

didn't mention the pine nut cake for half a minute, Lai Zhaoyi really had a plan in her heart, and asked her to say that Qin Shujiu was not good not to touch, looking at Lai Zhaoyi with a chuckle, Qin Shujiu said: "Zhaoyi said that she was laughing, how could the concubine have such thoughts?" How can the Xu family be the same as Zhaoyi? The Xu family was the one who was ruthless and vicious to do such a thing, but Zhaoyi is a model in the harem, and the concubine is here in Zhaoyi, and all the food in Zhaoyi here will naturally not be wrong. ”

At the moment, I took the pastry and tasted it, and the crispiness in the entrance was worthy of Liqing's praise of this Lai Zhaoyi, and the words of praise were naturally a lot.

Smiled and received Qin Shujiu's praise, Lai Zhaoyi said: "But thanks to the beauty of the fair, this palace has not made a good pastry for a long time, these days I am not confident in my heart, and now I see my fair beauty so praised that I have also found some confidence." ”

"There is no one in the palace made by Zhaoyi, if Zhaoyi's craftsmanship is not confident, then the concubines will not be able to get their hands on the pastries." The words are a little true and a little false, but they are also obedient to people's ears, but it also makes Lai Zhaoyi smile and nod. After summoning Qin Shujiu to Lifang Palace, they also chatted for a while, and after chatting this time, they were busy making these pastries, and people were also a little sleepy. Qin Shujiu is a person who understands the eyes, and when he saw that Lai Zhaoyi was a little tired, he found the right time to knock goodbye first, and Lai Zhaoyi was also tired, so he also responded.

After the owe, he withdrew from Lifang Palace, and after Qin Shujiu left, Lai Zhaoyi, who was a little tired, was Qingming, sat up straight and did not speak, but held his head with his hands in a trance, thinking about it, seeing Lai Zhaoyi thinking like this, Ruosuke, who was serving next to her, stepped forward and asked softly: "What is Zhaoyi thinking?" ”

"It's a little weird, that Qin Shujiu, this palace always feels a little familiar, but I can't say where this palace has such a feeling. Looking at her today, it should be, but it is absolutely impossible, no one can escape alive from the tragic situation of that day. It's impossible, but it's ......."

The two signs of contradiction are that the more Lai Zhaoyi thinks about it, the more dull the pain in her head becomes, her eyebrows are already frowning tightly, and her hands can't stop rubbing her forehead, as if this can relieve her head disease. What is Lai Zhaoyi talking about, since Ruosuke, who is close to her, is clear, although she also feels that Lai Zhaoyi thinks too much, and that kind of thing can't happen, but it's more appropriate to find peace of mind in everything, seeing Lai Zhaoyi's annoyance, Ruojie came up with an idea.

"Since Zhaoyi always has doubts in her heart, otherwise, she will also want to live in peace."

"Chacha?" Raising his head to look at Ruojie, Lai Zhaoyi was puzzled, and Ruojie nodded and said: "Yes, check it, the maid remembers that there was a rumor in the palace that that my fair beauty was not raised by Qin Shangshu's side since she was a child." Although the servant is not suspicious of Qin Shangshu, it is also good to send someone out to find out. ”

"What do you mean!" Called Ruojie said this, even if Lai Zhaoyi was clear, after finding Ming, this head was not as painful as Fang Cai, Lai Zhaoyi said: "Send a person who is good to go to the nunnery to ask?" ”

"That's what the slave meant."

Didn't Qin Shujiu say that he grew up in that ancient Dao Nunnery since he was a child? Since this is the case, it must be clear that the sisters-in-law in the nunnery are all clear, since Lai Zhaoyi is uneasy in her heart, it is better to go to the ancient Dao Nunnery to ask what is the matter, and it will be clear whether Qin Shujiu is the daughter of Qin Shangshu.

Ruojie's method Lai Zhaoyi immediately felt that it was feasible, and she had already calculated how to implement it in her heart.

In Lifang Palace, Lai Zhaoyi was already thinking about how to find out Qin Shujiu's identity, and Qin Shujiu, who came out of Lifang Palace, was a little unpredictable about Lai Zhaoyi's intentions. I didn't see what she did today, so I just served tea and snacks and said something suspicious, and nothing else.

There is nothing else, this is what Qin Shujiu is most puzzled about, she has never been born in her heart when she comes out of Lifang Palace. The same is true of Nanzhi, who was following behind him, and Nanzhi behind him said, "Sister, what did you say Lai Zhaoyi called her sister today?" She didn't think that Lai Zhaoyi summoned Qin Shujiu, she was really just drinking tea and eating crisp cakes. Unable to figure it out, Qin Shujiu couldn't see it clearly, and in the face of Nanzhi's doubts, Qin Shujiu could only shake his head and say: "I don't know what she's going to do, could it be that she wants to regain His Majesty's favor by winning over me, so that she can stand more firmly in this harem." ”

said the most likely reason at the moment, but this reason attracted Nanzhi to veto, and immediately shook his head Nanzhi said: "No way, although it is only a momentary matter, but Nanzhi is sure that Lai Zhaoyi has a killing intent in her sister's eyes." With a flash of killing intent, Nanzhi will never be wrong. ”

"Killing intent, you said she looked at me with murderous intent?" She didn't know that Lai Zhaoyi had murderous intentions against her? This kind of thing is important, and Qin Shujiu asked at the moment: "When did you move the murderous intent?" Nanzhi replied: "It's after my sister put the tea, at that moment, I don't know why Lai Zhaoyi looked at her sister with murderous intent in her eyes, but ......"

"But what?"

"But it doesn't feel like the killing intent is aimed at my sister, but it looks like I saw someone through my sister." Nanzhi couldn't tell how he felt, so he could only explain it so vaguely. The vague words made people even more ambiguous, and Qin Shujiu was also confused at the moment, frowning and thinking, Qin Shujiu whispered.

"I don't know if my wrist has grown, but this mind is becoming more and more unclear, Lai Zhaoyi, I am underestimating." Lai Zhaoyi's heart must be not good, but now she hasn't figured out where she saw that something was wrong, but since Lai Zhaoyi has moved her mind, no matter whether she will be wrong or not, Lai Zhaoyi has to think of a way to get rid of it.

Anyway, this person, she has long wanted to pull it out.
