Concubine Yu cordially chatted with Zhirong about embroidery, and sent someone to take the appearance for Zhirong to embroider, looking at Zhirong's left hand embroidery is more dexterous than the right hand of others, she can't help but be amazed.

"I can't witness your demeanor that day, it's really a pity for the palace, I heard that the screen of the hundred flowers is placed in the main hall of the Shanggong Bureau, so that the female officials who love embroidery and the practice can observe at any time." Concubine Yu played with the belly pocket of the little tiger embroidered by Zhirong.

Zhirong bowed his head: "The student is just a little carving insect skill, which is really nothing in the eyes of Lord Shanggong, and there are still a lot of things to learn in the future." She felt very awkward talking to this jade concubine, and always felt that she had to be careful with every sentence, and if it was a bad luck, she would be unlucky, and she didn't want to look at the face that was exactly the same as Tao Lingran.

Concubine Yu handed over her appearance to the palace maid beside her, and said with a smile: "Why do you need to be so modest, that screen is also very fond of the palace, and the acupuncture palace has never seen it." ”

Zhirong used the lost stitch method in the embroidery book, which no one knew in the Shanggong Bureau, but who knew if there was anything left by the predecessors in the treasure house of the Shanggong Bureau, and she was not qualified to enter the treasure house, and she could not see the high-level embroidery of the previous dynasties.

"The student is just thinking for a while, and the mother is exalting the student."

"I can embroider so well for a while, this palace likes to embroider the screen the most, I don't know if Bai Xiuxi is willing to embroider a red plum picture for this palace?" Concubine Yu looked at her with a smile, and her tone softened a little.

But when it came to Zhirong's ears, he only felt even more uncomfortable, he was a favorite concubine, and he was a cultivator, so such a thing naturally couldn't be pushed straightforwardly, so he had to move out of the Ming Law of the Shanggong Bureau. "It is an honor for students to embroider for Niangniang, but students have not yet participated in the big exam, and students who do not have a title in the Shanggong Bureau have rules and cannot embroider for the harem on their own."

"You don't need to care about Minglu, this palace can like it, you just wait for the news." When Concubine Yu said this, she was very relaxed, and she didn't take the laws of the Shang Palace Bureau in her eyes at all.

The rain outside was gradually getting lighter, and Zhirong really couldn't sit down, so she got up and saluted Concubine Yu and said, "Niangniang, it's not early, and the door of the Shanggong Bureau is about to be locked, so the student will retire." ”

Concubine Yu nodded: "Go ahead." If it's late, I'm afraid I'll be scolded. ”

Zhirong hurriedly left with the two girls, she tried to walk as calmly as possible, but her heart was like a mess. A person's name kept ringing in his head: Tao Lingran.

Looking at her departing back, Concubine Yu's eyes also turned cold, not at all the soft and cordial color she had before, "I didn't expect her to be a blessing in disguise, and she was crippled and not expelled from the Shang Palace Bureau, but she really has the ability!" As he spoke, he took the little tiger's belly pocket, and scratched the road with his sharp nails, and in a few moments the embroidery was scratched into a mess.

"Niangniang, Bai Xiuxi is just a small person, why should you be angry and hurt your body." The big palace maid beside her smiled and said, "She is proud now, but the days will be long in the future, the Shanggong Bureau is also a place for individuals to eat people, and it is uncertain whether it will go to the end, but it is very unfavorable for Murong Guifei to be pregnant at this time." ”

Concubine Yu closed her eyes and leaned back on the cushion, "It's a good thing that she is pregnant, and now the most anxious ones are the prince, King Cheng and Concubine Wen and others, you remember for me, take care of her baby, and prevent them from attacking." Be sure to let her give birth to the dragon seed in a good way. ”

"Yes, slave and maid take it to heart. The eldest princess sent a message and sent someone to bring me the secret medicine of southern Xinjiang. This medicine is colorless and tasteless, and no one in the medical department will diagnose it, and it will only slowly control people's minds, and Niangniang can use it with confidence. ”

Concubine Yu looked at the already clear sky, squinted her eyes and said with a strange smile: "It seems that the storm is about to sweep the capital, I don't know what kind of beautiful scenery it is." ”

Zhirong returned to the Shanggong Bureau and first asked for peace from Pushang Palace, and then went to ask for peace from all bureaus and Shanggong. Yubi left her to drink tea in her palace, and Wen Xin didn't want to see her, so she found an excuse to go out.

"You're okay now, I'll rest assured, otherwise I won't be able to explain to Xia Shanggong." Yubi took Zhirong's right hand, "It's a pity that such a good hand." Now that the matter has passed, I am afraid that it will not work to investigate in depth. ”

Zhirong shook his head: "I never thought of going to investigate, this matter is not as simple as it seems. Yushang Palace, but I inquired where my master is now? ”

Yubi nodded: "The specific location has not been revealed, but it is certain that it is still in the harem, as long as Xia Shanggong is still in the harem, then there will be a day when we meet." What you need to do now is to recuperate and take the time to study and prepare for the big exam. ”

"Yushang Palace rest assured." Zhirong nodded, and said the original story of seeing the Jade Concubine during the day, "What is the background of this Jade Concubine?" ”

Yushanggong smiled: "It turns out that you met her, this lady is different from other mothers, she is tall and arrogant, but she treats female officials with great respect." She is the second princess of the Caiyun clan in southern Xinjiang, and her mother died early. Usually he rarely goes out and walks around, and has little contact with the people of the Shanggong Bureau. ”

Another southern Xinjiang person?

Since she is the princess of the Caiyun clan, it must not be Tao Lingran. Zhirong breathed a sigh of relief, although this jade concubine was cold and arrogant, as long as she didn't offend her and saw her rarely, nothing would happen.

Back in the Ming Law Department, Wei Ting was waiting in her yard, and walked up happily when she saw her come back. The two sisters haven't seen each other for less than three days, but they miss each other very much, Wei Ting told her about some changes in the palace in the past few days, King Ming was forbidden to come to the Shang Palace Bureau by Concubine Wen, Qiu Manhua was often recruited to the palace to drink tea, Murong Concubine was pregnant, and her Zhirong's cloud-piercing embroidery was already famous in the capital, etc.

Zhirong knew that she didn't care, but when she heard the news of King Cheng and the crown prince, she was shocked fiercely.

Several of the king's personal guards of the Northern Regions disappeared, mutilated bodies were found in a nearby valley, and marks left by the guards before their deaths were found at the scene of the killing. The king of the Northern Regions cried to the emperor, hoping to find the murderer and give the king of the Northern Regions justice. At the feet of the Son of Heaven, such a thing appeared under the root of the imperial city, and it was related to the ministers of the humerus, and the emperor naturally sent someone to investigate thoroughly.

And the evidence of a qiē all points to King Cheng, and the king of the Northern Regions took the opportunity to show the emperor that King Cheng has always been dissatisfied with the Northern Regions, and that there must be an ulterior secret when he killed his relatives in the Northern Regions before, and now he kills his cronies in the Northern Regions.

The evidence was in hand, the corpse was also there, the emperor immediately ordered to search the palace, and Yu Linwei found some evidence of his friendship with the minister in King Cheng's study. The emperor was angry and killed Cheng Wang's cronies, punished Cheng Wang for thinking behind closed doors, and was not allowed to leave the palace without a holy decree. Such a punishment is the same as house arrest.

However, the Murong family and the Jin family did not attack King Cheng again at this time, but did not move. The prince knelt outside the Qinzheng Hall for a day and a night to intercede for his younger brother, and everyone in the palace said that the two had a deep brotherly relationship, and the prince was broad-minded and so on. And the emperor was also very pleased with the prince's behavior.

However, in Zhirong's view, the prince's behavior is really a bit stupid, and the best thing to do is to stand still and find more favorable evidence to completely lose the opportunity for King Cheng to compete for power.

Thinking about it, the emperor today is not a benevolent person, I heard that there was no one left who killed his brother in the competition for the throne. Would such a person wish his heir to be a benevolent man?

Jin Zixuan is still in southern Xinjiang, if he is in the capital, he will definitely not let the prince do this. The emperor is only praising the prince's behavior on the surface, but doesn't the shrewd emperor have any doubts about the prince?

Thinking of that handsome and dashing man, awkward personality, sharp words, remembering that day when she was taken by King Anjun and was in a deep crisis, he pulled her away and forcibly stuffed a fake death pill in her hand, as well as the scene when he took away her master, and the letters that she had not broken since she entered the palace, Zhirong sighed.

Sent away Wei Ting Zhirong opened the latest letter: Zhirong, I have put down the rebellion in southern Xinjiang, but I will not return to Beijing soon, I have consulted many famous doctors and people who know how to use poison, the poison in you may be the bee poison weed of the Caiyun Department, the antidote is very much a secret medicine of the palace, you wait for me to bring the antidote back. During this period, take precautions and do not take any medication casually, remember.

This time he talked many times more than before, and he was very grateful for his thoughts. There is also a small line of words below, Zhirong continued to read: You must not have returned Yanhua's things, so how can you do it? If you like gemstones, take me one, I have a lot of this kind of thing, and if you like emeralds, there are many in the southern Xinjiang sinkhole.

Zhirong checked the envelope and found that there was indeed a red gemstone, crystal clear, and it was also a very rare thing. She laughed secretly, Jin Zixuan really thought that she was so greedy for money. The emerald she received was a token of love.

If she used to accept the gems unceremoniously, but now she can't, she will put away the things and return them to him when Jin Zixuan returns to Beijing. After thinking about it, he let Chunhua grind it again, and wrote a letter to Jin Zixuan, firstly to thank him for seeking medical treatment for her, but to inquire about the whereabouts of the master. It is impossible for Jin Zixuan to take away the master and not know the whereabouts of the master at all.

And what took away the Master? This question became clear when she knew the original identity of the master. The only person who can assign Jin Zixuan and Yanhua at the same time is the one on the throne.

What happened back then that made the master leave the palace incognito, and the emperor didn't give up looking for her all these years, but not to kill her. I'm afraid this can only be known when she sees Master, and her next plan is to find Master while practicing in the Shang Gong Bureau.

The pattern in the palace has changed, and there are no factions, so it is difficult to ensure that Master's safety will not be threatened.

The second day's practice was very smooth, she studied like the other trainees, except for Qiu Manhua, who didn't laugh at her arms and eyes anymore, and Zhiyao pretended to care about her very much, and she was really a good sister in the eyes of outsiders.

Qiu Manhua turned a blind eye to Zhirong, and she was not outstanding in the course, but seemed to be a future princess to observe. Xu Ping is still her little follower, she follows wherever she goes, her mouth is full of good and obedient words, and she laughs from time to time, of course, there are many words that humiliate Zhirong.

Zhirong has already seen it completely, and only when you go higher and higher in the Shanggong Bureau will someone really respect you. Chen Qingqing, the youngest cultivator who spoke for her before, was very good to Zhirong. Among them, there is admiration, and there is also a fullness of Qiu Manhua.

Zhirong just smiled at her, not daring to get too close. The lessons of the past had made her a pawn for others, with her arms and eyes ruined, and she didn't want this to happen again.

A few days later, the emperor ordered the Pushang Palace to let Zhirong embroider plum blossoms for the jade concubine, and when she received the holy decree, Zhirong sighed that the jade concubine was indeed favored.

Pushang Palace gave her the best sewing box sand screen, and the emperor's decree wrote that if Zhirong completed this embroidered screen, she would be exempted from the final big exam and directly obtained the title and promoted to the six-grade embroidered female official.

The other practices were full of envy, but Zhirong couldn't be happy. However, the emperor's order could not be violated, so he had to spend all day in the house in front of the embroidery screen to ponder the pattern.

"Treading the snow to find plums, the Jade Concubine and the father both like this." That night, just when Zhirong was frowning for her style, she heard a man's voice coming in overhead.

As soon as the voice fell, I saw a man dressed in black sneaking in and smiled at her: "This king hasn't come to see you for a few days, do you miss me?" ”

King Ming, Zhi Rong felt that his head was big, wasn't this guy forbidden to enter the Shanggong Bureau, how could he still come in. And his nightwear is not afraid of being considered an assassin?

"Broke into the woman's boudoir in the middle of the night, this is the rule you learned, little prince? Get out! "Zhirong doesn't care about any etiquette, so she can get this guy away quickly.

"This king finally came in, so he didn't leave, you see I brought good wine, the moonlight is very good tonight, isn't it beautiful for you and me to talk about wine?" King Ming held a small jar of wine behind his back and looked at her with a smile.

Zhirong glanced at him: "Drinking alcohol is not allowed in cultivation, and if you don't leave, someone will find out!" "This guy's brain is in the water again, do you want to kick it a few times?

King Ming said: "Drinking is not allowed in the Shang Palace, but there is one place, I will take you there!" Saying that, he pulled up Zhirong, "If you shout, the guards will really know, and then you will be really unlucky." Remember not to speak. ”

Oh my God, what kind of sin did she create to meet such a wonderful prince. There was no choice but to follow King Ming, and with his turns, he was taken by him to use light power to fly the eaves and walk the wall. Finally, we arrived at a palace in the northwest corner of the palace.

"Manyunju? This is the mother's dormitory? Zhirong thought the name was too strange, and it was different from other palaces.

King Ming smiled: "It's not anyone's, it's empty inside." Go to the rooftop and drink. ”

With that, he flew to the roof with Zhirong. It's surprisingly quiet here, and the moonlight is really good, sprinkling on the two of them, exuding infinite brilliance.

"I may not be me anymore," Ming Wang said, taking a long sip of wine, but did not give the flask to Zhirong.

At this time, Zhirong realized that he didn't want to drink with him at all, but that he was too lonely and wanted someone to be by his side. And she is a listener.

"It's still come to this day. My father ordered me to study government affairs well, but I didn't like it. But my mother likes it, and I don't like Qiu Manhua either, but I have to marry her. Zhirong, it would have been nice if I had known you earlier, just a little earlier than Yanhua. I know that kid likes you, and you like him. ”R1152
