"How are the guests?"

Ying Zheng still looked at the bamboo silk and asked me like this.

"Thanks to the king's blessing, a qiē is well."

I still answered him.

Didn't silence it as usual and stop asking, Ying Zheng listened to my answer, raised his eyebrows and glanced at me, put down the bamboo silk and took the porridge bowl.

"When I heard about the lake, the guests cried."

He asked casually, but deliberately asked.

I expected that Mengtan might report the "strange" phenomenon of purple taro's red eyes that she saw to Ying Zheng, but I didn't expect Ying Zheng to take what she said that Zi Yao might be crying seriously, and would unusually ask me about such a small thing in person.

Ying Zheng's pet is fortunate to be Mengtan's pet to the point of leaking his introverted temperament? My heart was bitter, and my jealousy soared, and my words were cold.

"Is the king scolding the slave concubine for being disrespectful and neglecting the guests?"

I am strong and middle-handed, and show Ying Zheng with a solemn face to hide my panic at the moment: Ying Zheng suddenly asked the reason why Zi Yao was crying, I didn't expect him to ask me so directly, so I didn't have the idea of answering for a while.

He scooped a spoonful of porridge into his mouth, chewed it carefully, swallowed it sullenly, and opened my mouth in the midst of my unease, and the words that opened made my uneasiness even worse.

"Isn't that your guest like that?"

Ying Zheng's tone was cold, still asking me why I was making my own guests sad, and he didn't mean to let go of the question for the time being.

I was frightened by Yingzheng's attention and sad because of his attention, and compared with the two, I chose the sentiment of sadness to continue talking.

"Therefore, did the king, because he favored a certain princess so much, listen to her words in such detail, and rebuke the concubine, and satisfy her curiosity with the answers that the concubine informed?"

I tried desperately to stabilize my voice, but unfortunately the grievances and losses in my heart did not allow me to be handy, so the words that I originally said coldly were more mixed with my deepest sadness when I showed Yingzheng.

My thoughts that deviated from the "theme" were so emotional that Ying Zheng was very helpless.

"Do you think that the widow asked about the trip to Jasper Lake because of Mengtan?" He frowned and looked at me.

I feel sad about him knowingly covering up and renewing my heart. "Huh" sighed and laughed. I laugh at the vicissitudes of decadence.

"Could it be because of the slave concubine?"

I retorted hopelessly, and mentally answered myself in the negative.

Ying Zheng's eyebrows suddenly furrowed, and he looked at me who was sadly affirming his answer, and the anger in his eyes became stronger and stronger.

"If the widow says yes. Do you think it's even more ridiculous? "He continued to tease me.

How could I find him ridiculous? How can I find it ridiculous that he dominates the world?

"Hehe", if someone is ridiculous, then I must be the first to feel that I am ridiculous.

was asked to accompany by Lin Jixiang's woman, and was personally agreed by Yingzheng to be an accompaniment, but in the end, he was scolded by Yingzheng for the flattery of one of Yingzheng's favorite concubines - who else is more ridiculous than me?

I was helpless and pathetic as I drifted with the waves, but why did he stab my heart so much? Is it because I feel that my heart is not in him? Perhaps, his heart is no longer in me!

The more I thought about it, the colder my heart became, and my words cooled down with my mood.

"If the slave concubine said that the guest was touched by the sadness of talking about the prosperity of the Qin State in front of him, thinking of the devastation of the rest of the vassal states and the poor livelihood of the people, and feeling that the mother country Qi was also facing this difficulty and this calamity, and it was difficult to help himself, would the king feel that the slave concubine worked carefully for the Qi State and did great things around you?"

I'm bleeding against my head. The words are rebellious and hard.

Ying Zheng was furious when he heard this, and the exposed fire could burn me to the side as terrifying.

But the more he was angry and unhappy when he saw me like this, the colder my heart became.

"Perhaps the king felt that this was not tolerated, but in the eyes of the concubines. It's just human nature. At this time, the king has not seen it with his own eyes, and after listening to the slander, he asked the slave concubine, how much did he care about the concubine's identity as the princess of Qi State?

If the king takes care of trivial matters like this on weekdays, it is okay, and the concubine can not think about it anymore, but is this the case?

In the past, the king's care was all about national affairs, such as inconspicuous matters such as purple taro and red eyes... There are many bigger things than this, and the king can't press them one by one, but now-"

I was a little excited, but I knew in my heart that at this moment of excitement, the radical language that flashed in my mind could not be said directly to Yingzheng, no matter how sad it was. After a pause, I wisely chose to let the blatant grievances that might have caused me murder flashed away.

"The slave concubine knows that the king's heart is not in the body of the slave concubine, but the king slanders and suspects the slave concubine for the sake of a favorite concubine - how does the king let the slave concubine deal with herself?"

I said, choked up and couldn't go on.

My tearful feelings did not make Ying Zheng soften, and if I explored carefully, he seemed to be even more dissatisfied with me.

"Do you have to deal with the widow like this?"

His tone was even more permeated with deep dissatisfaction.

looked at Ying Zheng's impatient face. Compared to his questioning, I also asked sadly about my disappointment.

"Does the king have to make it so clear that you don't love the misery of your concubines?"

I know what a terrible situation it would be to be abandoned by Yingzheng in this palace and in this world, but I will naturally realize this fact when I am abandoned. Does Yingzheng have to be so angry and provocative?

The pain in my eyes prompted the outbreak of rudeness in Yingzheng's heart.

"The widow changed his mind to refuse to spoil Mengtan, and asked about such a trivial and trivial incident, is it really for Mengtan? Let you enter the palace where the widow deals with the twists, is it because the widow is lucky to be lucky? ”

Ying Zheng asked angrily, and he himself was ruthless, and the silver bowl hit by the hand holding the spoon because of the rapid shaking "Bah".

"Tian Tianxi, you go out for the widow!"

He burst into a mouth.

My sad mood was too sad and frightened by his scolding for several days to be immersed in self-pity and self-pity, as for the next delivery of porridge - no need to ask, I went back to the days when I handed over the porridge to Zhao's hand.

The autumn mood rendered by the autumn wind is already filled with an indescribable and irresistible sadness, and I, who was burned out and re-ashed by Yingzheng's anger, walked in the inner palace like I was unconscious for the time being, and I was careless and failed to avoid it early, and I met Mrs. Jing who had not been seen alone for a long time.

The princess is born, Luo Fu is pregnant, the birthday celebration of the long envoy, the arrival of the heavenly maiden, the fall of the princess... Mrs. Jing has always been busy, and I have always been idle, so we have never stood face to face like we met unexpectedly at this moment.

"Mrs. Jing, Fu'an Kangning!"

When I realized that there was no way to avoid it, and that I could only face Lady Jing head-on, I was a little more awake in the chaos, so when I performed the ceremony, I was obviously at least a beat slower than the etiquette that should have been respected earlier.

Mrs. Jing was a little surprised to see me, she stopped, instinctively pardoned me coldly, and changed her peaceful and charitable countenance.

"The palace also said that Mrs. Xi has been busy seeking piano skills recently, and she has no time to wander around the courtyard, and she has never thought about how deep Mrs. Xi's heart is, and now she is still calm."

She secretly thought that I should be excited to stay by Lin Jixiang's side and practice the piano, but now I can stay alone in the inner palace, so calm, in her opinion, I am very scheming.

I know, she's gossiping that Lin Jixiang is here for me; And I, in her opinion, shouldn't be so low-key.

"The concubine's piano skills are mediocre and there is a bottleneck, and I am thinking about bothering Lin Qingong in the past two days to get the truth, Mrs. Jing is too early, it seems that she looks down on the concubine again."

Since they all intend to provoke my attitude towards Lin Jixiang, then I will simply show it generously, so as not to hide and make these people unable to sleep.

Mrs. Jing said without hesitation when she heard me, and the light in her eyes flickered three or two points after that.

"Oh, it seems that this palace has underestimated Lin Qingong's summoning power, and it can convince a wonderful sound lady like our Mrs. Xi who plays a heavenly sound, and she can't do it without the ability to stand up to the sky."

She spoke softly and slowly, her eyes shrouded in a thick light of charity.

The more kind and kind I was, the more scheming I was, and the more ruthless I became, I quietly warned myself of the bloody exposure of the image of the "wolf in sheep's clothing" in my mind, so as to resist Mrs. Jing's "sugar-coated cannonball".

"Lin Qingong doesn't know how to enslave concubines, but teaching concubines is more than enough." I smiled humbly and continued: "It's really that the concubine's skills are not as good as others, and her skills are low, which has disappointed Madame. ”

Talking about Lin Jixiang, my chaotic and startled intelligence slowly slowed down, and suddenly remembered what Zi Yao had said to me when she was swimming in the lake - Huayang has been persistently spreading rumors that slander me, and the Heavenly Maiden Mengtan entered Xianyang, which was also done by Huayang in order to dissipate my mystery.

I'm thinking, isn't it that Mrs. Jing wants to get rid of me again, so she asked Huayang to spread the scandal about me?

However, although Huayang thought that Yingzheng asked her to marry Wang Jian because of me, from the information that Luo Congtan heard and the fact that I perceived that Huayang did not like Mrs. Jing's adoptive mother very much, and the two parties who disliked each other were far away and communicated their feelings by letter - it didn't seem to be the case;

With the pride of Mrs. Jing, she disdains to make an alliance with her adopted daughter in order to get rid of me in a low position, and she wants the possibility of connecting Guò Fusu with Huayang - because Fusu's affection for me seems unrealistic, so they should not collude!

"Sharp teeth, humble and well-founded, with ink spots in the chest, and deeds in the heart, if Mrs. Xi has no extraordinary resources, then who else has it in this palace?"

She smiled faintly, but as if she wasn't smiling, she stared at me closely, and Mrs. Jing's vigilance was overflowing.
