Chapter 20: Amazing News

"Fei Hengyu." Shujin shouted.

The voice was already unfamiliar to Hengyu, turned around, looked at the person in front of him, and frowned: "Who are you?" ”

Shujin owes: "Little girl Shujin, this year's show girl, a friend who lingers." ”

Hengyu swept the surroundings in a blink of an eye, and there was no shadow of Xi Ying, and asked, "What about Xi Ying?" ”

Shujin approached, took out the piece of jade from his sleeve, and carried the rope tied to the jade: "She won't come, this will be returned to you, you must have guessed her answer in your heart." ”

"No, I don't believe it, why didn't she come in person." Heng Yu ignored the piece of jade and turned sideways to look ahead.

Shujin walked in front of him and said with a wry smile: "She came and I came, didn't the result be the same, is it possible, she will change her mind when she sees you?" Since you love her, you should know her character, and what she decides, there is no room for turnaround. ”

Hengyu glanced at Shujin: "Ying'er is reluctant to break this relationship, she can't open her mouth in the face of me to let you come, which is enough to prove that I can change her mind." ”

"Huh." Shujin sneered, "She can know you, she can forget you, I insisted on coming today, because I know that although she has made up her mind, you will force her." ”

Hengyu's lips trembled slightly, her hands hung down on the sides of her clothes, and she clenched her fists tightly: "She really wants to be the emperor's woman so much, is she really so selfish?" ”

"As a show girl, you don't have a choice, even if it's not for yourself, you have to do it for the family, isn't it the same for Concubine Hui?" Shujin looked at Hengyu and said lightly.

Heng Yu took his eyes off Shujin and looked ahead: "Mi'er was summoned to the palace by the Queen Mother when her aunt died of illness, and the wives and concubines of Lord Wang were grouped, and Mi'er was lonely and helpless, how can she be compared with Ying'er." ”

"What about Wang Ji, I remember that Wang Ji and Concubine Hui are half-mothers, so Wang Ji has nothing to do with the Queen Mother, and the Wang family already has Concubine Hui in the palace, so why should they send their daughter to the palace draft?" Shu Jin said.

Hengyu turned around and looked at Shujin: "What are you asking for, what I want now is Ying'er's answer." ”

Shujin carried the rope and dropped the jade pendant in front of Heng Yu's eyes and shook it: "I have already told you the answer on behalf of Xi Ying, you better take it back quickly, if it falls to the ground and breaks, it's none of my business." ”

"No, I still don't believe it, I'm going to tell it to me personally." Hengyu turned her head.

Shujin frowned, walked to a tree, hung the jade pendant on the branch of the trunk, and looked at Hengyu: "The jade is here, I hope you don't look for Xi Ying in the future, please respect her choice, after all, the Chen family is not like the Fei family, with the support of the Queen Mother." With that, Shujin turned and left.

Heng Yu walked to the tree, looked at the tree fiercely, punched the trunk, his hand was already grinding blood, the jade shook off, fell to the ground, made a crisp sound, fell in half, Heng Yu picked up the remnant jade on the ground, held it tightly in his hand, looked up to the sky and smiled, never saw a tearful gaze in the distance has been falling here.

"Xiying, why are you here?" As soon as Shujin walked to the rockery, he saw Xiying hiding behind the rockery, looking at Fei Hengyu in the distance, two lines of tears, and falling, Shujin looked back, and saw that Fei Hengyu did not see Xiying, and hurriedly pulled Xiying away from the imperial garden.

"Okay, the general election is going to be held in a few days, stop crying like this, the Xiying I know is a lady who doesn't admit defeat, but not a deep resentful woman trapped by love."

Xi Yingxiao smiled, took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes: "Got it, let's go back." ”

In the Lanxia Palace, Wen Yue is still playing the song that everyone is tired of, although she practices every day, compared to Qi Zheng's piano skills, there is naturally still a little gap, Youzhu sat at the table and looked at the book that she had been reading every day since she entered the palace, Xi Rui sat in front of the bronze mirror and dressed up, Qi Zheng was still sitting in front of the window, Ning Mo looked at something, but now it was not the moon that she was looking at, and no one noticed that the handkerchief she was holding in her hand was until two days before the election.

"Sister, what are you looking at?" Wen Yue walked to Qizheng's side, took advantage of Qizheng to look at the handkerchief in a daze, snatched the handkerchief from Qizheng's hand, took it in front of her eyes and looked at it carefully, and exclaimed: "Sister, according to the style of this handkerchief, it should be a man's thing, sister, how can you have it." ”

Qizheng suddenly came back to her senses and wanted to get up and snatch back the handkerchief, Wen Yue hid the handkerchief behind her, and hid in Tibet with a smile: "Sister, recruit from the truth." ”

Qi Zheng chased Wen Yue for a handkerchief, but in vain, he was so tired that he couldn't breathe, walked to the table and sat down, panting: "You take it, I don't want it." ”

Wen Yue frowned and walked to Qi Zheng's side, spreading out the handkerchief: "Sister, just tell me, where did the handkerchief come from, and also, what is the meaning of the bluegrass embroidered in the lower corner?" ”

Qi Zheng snatched the handkerchief, held a corner of his hand, looked at it, there was indeed an embroidered orchid grass, the handkerchief has always been folded, Qi Zheng did not find it, in the face of Wen Yue's forced question, Qi Zheng hurriedly opened his mouth to deal with: "Who said that this style is a man's thing, can't I use it?" ”

"Sister, who are you bluffing, this color is for women, sister, I have seen your handkerchiefs, all silk handkerchiefs, where is such brocade." Wen Yue leaned over and looked at Qi Zheng and smiled.

Qi Zheng raised the corners of his lips: "I embroidered it and gave it to my brother for thought, my brother likes orchid grass, but he was in a hurry and forgot to give it." ”

Wen Yue listened to Qi Zheng's answer, and looked suspicious: "Really? I don't believe it, if it's really for my brother, why did you just quibble that it's a woman's thing? ”

Qi Zheng let out a long breath, put the handkerchief on the table, and pulled the corners of his mouth: "Whether you believe it or not, that's it anyway." ”

Youzhu, who was sitting on the side, put down the book and looked at Wen Yue and said: "You be quiet, no matter who gave this handkerchief or who gave it, since this is a man's thing, it shouldn't be too public, fortunately, there are only three of us in the hall, if there is any storm, as a show girl."

Qi Zheng is definitely inseparable. When Wen Yue heard this, she looked down and lowered her head: "Sister, I ......." ”

"Okay, you go and practice your piano, otherwise the piano skills are not good, how can you play it to the emperor." Qi Zheng laughed.

Seeing that Qi Zheng had no intention of blaming, Wen Yue happily walked to the piano and sat down.

"I've seen you little masters." Bizhu stood in front of the door, owed, and looked at Qizheng again: "Little master Qizheng, the concubine Niangniang summoned the little master to Wanfu Palace Xiaoxu." ”

Qi Zheng was a little surprised, in the past, the concubine summoned at least called Xi Ying, how could she be summoned alone today? I didn't think much about it, nodded, and followed Bizhu to Wanfu Palace.

Walking in the palace road, Qi Zheng looked left and right, most of the palace maids and eunuchs who came and went were in groups of three or two, talking while walking, Qi Zheng had long been used to it, this is the case in the palace, and a little thing would also be spreading, naturally not surprising.

There were a few palace maids in front of them around the side of the corridor, talking about something, as if there was a familiar figure inside, walking next to the group of people, Bizhu also found one person in the crowd, it was Concubine Yun's maid Rong'er, Bizhu and Qizheng stood there, quietly listening to what Rong'er said.

"I think that the show girl named Xia Luan is really lucky this time, and she was favored by the emperor just by her portrait, so the election the day after tomorrow, isn't it going to overwhelm the crowd?" Rong'er said.

A name suddenly flashed in Qi Zheng's mind, 'Xia Luan, how could it be her'

"Rong'er, how did you know that the emperor had fallen in love with that show girl?" A palace maid asked

"yes, yes." The people around him echoed him

Rong'er cleared her throat: "Naturally I saw it with my own eyes, yesterday I followed the master to the imperial study to ask the emperor for peace, just went in and saw the emperor looking at a portrait of a show girl and admired again and again, the pity revealed between the eyebrows, the people who saw it, the heart is clear, and then the master stepped forward to take a look, the woman in the painting is very colorful, and saw the name next to the painting, it is the three words Xia Luan. After that, Rong'er seemed to notice Bizhu standing in front, scattered the crowd, looked at Bizhu and smiled: "Yo, when does Sister Bizhu like to listen to us gossip." ”

Bizhu didn't speak, paused, and continued to move forward, only to hear Rong'er laughing behind her: "Sister Bizhu has to tell the concubine Niangniang when she goes back, Xia Luan regrets that she has been taken by the emperor, and Niangniang can be on guard at home, so as not to be robbed of the limelight by others." ”

Bizhu stopped, looked back, and raised the corners of her lips: "Master Hua, no, how can Concubine Hua be jealous of a show girl like some concubines, besides, the emperor hasn't even seen the face of that show girl, some people are jealous, it's really a joke." With that, he turned around and moved on.

Qizheng kept thinking about what the palace maid said, and walked to the door of Wanfu Palace, Bizhu saw that Qizheng was in a daze, coughed lightly, Qizheng came back to her senses, and followed Bizhu into the palace, Concubine Hua sat in front of the palace, Qizheng stepped forward, Yingying Yifu, and Yingying said: "Niangniang Wanfu." ”

"Excuse me, sit down." Concubine Hua said lightly, waiting for Qizheng to sit down to the side, retreating from the people who were waiting in the hall, leaving only Bizhu alone, Bizhu owed, walked to Concubine Hua's side, whispered to Concubine Hua for a while, after speaking, Concubine Hua smiled slightly, looked indifferent, and looked at Qizheng again: "You must have heard what Rong'er said just now." ”

Qi Zheng nodded slightly.

Concubine Hua smiled, picked up the teacup next to her, and blew: "Don't be surprised, who gives a lot of reward, the people in the painting are naturally as beautiful as fairies, but they often backfire, the emperor wants to see the true face, but what will happen, smart people naturally know." Seeing that Qi Zheng didn't speak, he said, "I only asked you to come here today, and there is something in this palace that can only be rewarded to one person." ”

Qi Zheng looked up and wondered, "What is it?" ”

Concubine Hua motioned to Bizhu to bring a small jade bottle: "This is also a bottle of fragrance, but it is different from the last time, this one is even rarer, there are only two bottles in Wanfu Palace, you take it today, and use it every day after the election, you can know its wonders, okay, the general election is coming soon, it is not easy to stay in Wanfu Palace for a long time, so as not to be seen chewing the root of your tongue, you step down." ”

Qi Zheng was blessed, walked out of Wanfu Palace, and walked quietly in the palace road, the people walking by beside him were still talking, but Qi Zheng already knew that they were talking about Xia Luan, and secretly thought in his heart, "This is really an amazing news,** Everyone is talking about it, and Hua Guifei doesn't care about it, but from Rong'er's words, it is not difficult to hear that Concubine Yun is worried about this matter, then, Xia Luan is a blessing or a curse?" ’
