The footsteps gradually approached, Qi Zheng came back to his senses, and bowed down with Xi Ying: "Say hello to the noble concubine." Concubine Hua slowly walked out of the dormitory, sat down on the couch in front of the hall, and said in a voice: "No courtesy, sit down." "Xie Niangniang." The two got up and said, walked to the side of the hall and sat down, Qizheng bowed slightly: "I'm late, and I hope that Niangniang will forgive me." Hua Guifei smiled and looked at the flower basket carried by Qi Zheng and Xi Ying: "No problem, summer is coming, the flowers are not as prosperous as before, and it will naturally take more time to find some good petals, and the two sisters have worked hard." Yan glanced at Bizhu. Bizhu understood what Concubine Hua meant, nodded, walked to Xiying and Qizheng, and owed slightly: "The little master will hand over the basket to the slave." Xi Ying smiled and handed the flower basket to Bizhu, Qizheng slowly stretched out her hand, Bizhu took it, Qizheng looked at the petals in the basket, stunned, and refused to let go. The little master of Qizheng? Bizhu looked at the distracted Qizheng and said lightly. Concubine Hua noticed Qizheng's strange appearance and said with a smile: "What's wrong with my sister?" Qizheng let go of his hand and turned his eyes to look at Hua Guifei: "Back to Niangniang, Qizheng is fine, Niangniang's orders, Qizheng and Xiying naturally dare not slack off, and should do their best to choose the best for Niangniang." When Concubine Hua heard this, she covered her mouth and smiled, beckoned Bizhu to come over, whispered a few words to her, and Bizhu retreated, and Concubine Hua looked at Qizheng and Xi Ying and said: "I heard that the palace was not very peaceful a few days ago, but I didn't smell anything about it, since the two sisters are here, you might as well tell the story." Xi Ying nodded and said: "Yes, in fact, it's not a big deal, the show queen of Chaolu Hall was punished by the eldest princess Jiaying, and she was unwilling, making the chickens and dogs restless, and almost alarming Concubine Hui and the Queen Mother." Concubine Hua was interested: "There is such a thing, Wang Xi?" Could it be that it is the rumored sister of Concubine Hui, what happened? Xi Ying lowered her eyebrows and replied: "Xi Ying doesn't know, but then Wang Xi seems to have been stopped by Concubine Yun and brought back, otherwise, I don't know what will happen." "When Concubine Hua Guifei heard what Xi Ying said, she seemed to be puzzled, she didn't speak for a long time, frowning and thinking, 'This is a strange thing, Concubine Yun is Yin Jiang's person, it stands to reason that Wang Ji made a big deal for her and did no harm, she stopped Wang Xi, didn't she help Concubine Hui, I thought Meng Susu didn't have much scheming, maybe, I underestimated her." Xi Ying looked at Concubine Hua a little distracted, but she didn't dare to interrupt Concubine Hua's thoughts. "Mother, I've got something." Bizhu walked into the hall with a tray in her hand, on which were placed three very delicate small jade bottles. Concubine Hua came back to her senses and said with a smile: "The reason why this palace let the two younger sisters pick the petals is because they got the recipe for a fragrance a few days ago, and the emperor likes this fragrance very much, but this fragrance can only be made with this fresh petal, there are two bottles here, and the two sisters will try it." Bizhu walked towards the two of them with Xianglu, Qizheng and Xiying took it, got up and owed slightly: "Xie Niangniang." "Do you know why Hongu bothered his two sisters to pick the petals herself?" Concubine Hua said with a smile. Qizheng replied calmly: "How can Niangniang's mind be speculated at will, Qizheng doesn't know." Concubine Hua picked up the remaining bottle of perfume on the plate, looked at the jade bottle, and said lightly: "Although this perfume is not a precious thing, it is applied to the skin. When Qi Zheng heard what Concubine Hua said, she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, stunned, the jade bottle slipped from her hand and fell to the ground, with a "snap" sound, it shattered. Concubine Hua didn't seem surprised, and raised the corners of her lips slightly: "Bizhu, why don't you take another bottle to the little master of Qizheng soon." Bi Zhufu retreated, and Concubine Hua immediately sent the other palace people in the palace to close the palace door before slowly speaking: "It seems that Sister Qizheng has something to hide from the palace." Qi Zheng panicked, knelt on the ground in a panic, and hurriedly said: "Niang Niang forgive the sin, that flower ...... We didn't pick the petals with our own hands. Concubine Hua raised her hand, took off the ring on her finger, played with it in her hand, and said lightly: "Sister, let's get up and say." Qi Zheng slowly got up, bowed his head and replied: "Originally, we had picked the petals and were about to send them to Niangniang, but they were taken away by Princess Jiaying, and then I don't know who put two baskets of petals in front. "Sit down, you met Jiaying, she only took your two baskets of petals, it's really a strange thing, everyone who met her has suffered less, the two sisters don't deceive this palace." Concubine Hua looked at Qi Zheng and said. Xi Ying's head said: "Qi Yu Niangniang, what Qi Zheng said is true, Princess Jiaying does have a difficult slave, but there is a Lord Fei who came to the rescue, Princess Jiaying let us go, but asked for the two baskets of flowers, Xi Ying insisted on not giving it, but Jiaying is a princess, we are just show girls, helpless, only to give up." Hua Guifei smiled: "You really go out to meet a nobleman, you can get the help of Lord Fei, okay, give it, Qi Zheng, you are willing to tell the truth, although this matter has been done, but this palace will no longer pursue it, but this palace is very curious, Jiaying came up with some strange ways to deal with you this time." Qi Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and replied slowly: "Hui Niangniang, princess, the princess wants us to fish out the fish in the pool of the imperial garden." "What, fishing? Hehe. Concubine Hua covered her mouth and smiled, and said, "Jiaying is Jiaying, it seems that there are only people she can't meet, and there are no people she can't deal with." Qi Zheng and Xi Ying lowered their heads and did not speak. Concubine Hua smiled and said lightly: "Okay, you must be tired too, retreat." Qi Zheng and Xi Ying got up to salute, just opened the door of the palace, Bizhu waited outside the door, saw Qi Zheng, handed the fragrance dew, Qi Zheng took it, bowed slightly, and walked out of the Chu Palace. Seeing the two leaving, Bizhu walked into the hall, covered the door, and stood beside Concubine Hua: "Master, the slave doesn't understand, doesn't the master know about this, why do you pretend not to know, those two baskets of petals were also sent by the master to put them there, isn't the master doing this to help the two little masters?" Concubine Hua Guifei reclined on the couch and palmed her forehead: "This palace thought so at first, but it killed two birds with one stone." "What has the master gained?" Bizhu asked. Concubine Hua said lightly: "The person that this palace needs is to tell the truth to this palace, and will cover it up in front of others, Qi Zheng's uneasy expression is undisguised on her face, this palace slightly knocked on the side, she confided the truth, and Xi Ying is a person who can hide secrets very well, both of them are used by this palace, can complement each other's shortcomings, and it is very beneficial to this palace." ”

"Then why doesn't the master test the little master of Shujin and the little master of Wenyue?"

"This palace has already found out clearly, Shujin and Xi Ying have always been good, and Wen Yue is the sworn sister of Qi Zheng, firmly tied to Xi Ying Qi Zheng and Qi Zheng, isn't this palace killing two birds with one stone?"

"The mother is smart." Bizhu laughed. Back at the Chu Hui Palace, Qi Zheng sat weakly on the edge of the bed, her eyes were blank, and Xi Ying sat at the table without saying a word. "Xiying, what's wrong with you?" Shujin walked to the table, sat next to Xi Ying, and asked curiously. Xi Ying shook his head: "I made a risky move." He sat quietly. Shujin frowned: "Didn't you two go to Concubine Hua?" Why did you come back like losing your soul, what happened? "It's really full of crises here, and I've finally seen it." Xi Ying smiled bitterly. Qi Zheng raised his eyes and looked around, and asked softly, "What about Wen Yue?" Xi Rui said lightly: "She was called by Aunt Nian." "What's wrong with my sister?" As soon as Xi Rui finished speaking, Wen Yue walked in. Qizheng looked at Wen Yue and sighed: "It's a long story, by the way, where have you been." Suddenly, he saw a scar on Wen Yue's wrist, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with your wrist?" Wen Yue was a little displeased, and slowly walked to Qizheng's side: "My aunt said that I am not familiar with etiquette, just asked me to go to the garden to learn, took the handkerchief and was blown away by a gust of wind, and fell in the flower garden, I went to pick it up, but my wrist was scratched by the flower branch, my aunt said that there will be a painter to draw us truthfully in a few days, and hand it over to the emperor to see, what can I do about this injury." Qi Zheng took Wen Yue's hand and took a closer look, although the scratch was not deep, it might not be able to heal in the next few days, Qi Zheng thought about it, got up and walked to the cabinet, opened the cabinet door, and took out a brocade box. Wen Yue came up: "Sister, what is this?" Qi Zheng slowly opened, a piece of paper fell out, fell to the ground, Qi Zheng took out the jade bracelet in the brocade box, and handed it to Wen Yue: "Bring this with you, just enough to cover it." Wen Yue happily took it: "Sister is so smart." Qi Zheng smiled faintly, and was about to bend down to pick up the paper on the ground, but Wen Yue took a step ahead of Qi Zheng, picked up the paper, opened it, and asked curiously, "Sister, what is this?" "Sheet music." Qi Zheng said. Wen Yue looked at the score and said with a smile: "Is it the song that my sister played that day?" Qi Zheng nodded. Presumably my sister is already very familiar with playing, can you give me this sheet music, I like this piece very much, and I can practice it every day in the future. Wen Yue looked at the score intently and begged. Hearing this, Qizheng was stunned and nodded slowly. "Sister is so nice." Wen Yue was very pleased, walked to the edge of the bed and sat down with the piano score, looked at it carefully, put the piano score on the bed again, raised her hand, looked at the jade bracelet on her wrist, and looked at Qizheng with a smile: "Sister, this seems to be exactly the same as yours, was it given to you by your father?" Qizheng shook his head lightly: "No. ”

Wen Yue smiled: "Then thank you sister, by the way, sister, what happened today?" ”

Qi Zheng lowered her eyebrows and said lightly: "It's okay, I just ran into Princess Jiaying?" ”

"What, you bumped into Jiaying?" Shujin exclaimed.

Qi Zheng smiled slightly: "But fortunately, with the help of Lord Fei, we were able to escape?" ”

Shujin was curious: "Lord Fei, which Lord Fei." ”

"The Fei family in Pingjing City is naturally the Fei family, and that Fei should be the son of the elder brother of the Empress Dowager Fei." Xi Rui walked to the table and sat down, said lightly, and then turned to look at Xi Ying who was sitting on the side: "What are you thinking?" Xi Ying was in a daze, and was slightly startled when she was asked by Xi Rui, and came back to her senses: "No, I didn't think about anything." ”

"Sister, I'll ask my aunt if she can put a piano in the hall, in that case, I can practice every day." Wen Yue smiled and walked out of the hall.

Qi Zheng frowned slightly, looking at Wen Yue's back, "As Wen Yue said, that piece is already familiar to me, and I don't need the piano score, so it doesn't hurt to give it to Wen Yue, but why do I feel so uneasy?" ’……
