Liu Zhien went to Nanjing, Xu Xun said hello to the emperor when he was driving, Liu Zhien himself in the palace sued for leave, he was decent, and he was protected by Xu Xun, so naturally he would not lose his errand. Shunshun went out of the palace on the spot, although it was already the middle of winter, but he still did not delay at all, and went to Xu's house to ask for money, so he went down to Jiangnan and did not mention it.

Xu Xun is here, but he can't see his mother's house for a while. This year, there was no celebration in the Spring Festival Palace, not even the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and the emperor quietly went out of the palace on Chinese New Year's Eve to worship the mausoleum - three years of mourning, this is still the first year, all palaces try to wear plain clothes, and the white cloth decorations everywhere have not been removed, naturally there is no chance for foreign relatives to enter the pilgrimage.

Chinese New Year's Eve and the first day of the new year can't be celebrated, the second and third days of the new year, everyone will also have small-scale parties, Xu Xun is lazy to contact feelings around for a while, she is embarrassed, always suspect that Empress Hu and Sun Guifei know about her relatives. After all, even Liu Zhien has heard about this, who knows if Niu Twelve will leak another mouthful. Concubine Zhuang's relatives opened a green building, and this matter spread to Jing'er, and it was also a humiliation for Xu Xun.

However, when she doesn't go out, others will naturally come to see her. For example, you Qing'er, Zi'er, and Zhao Zhaorong, etc., as a person from Yongning Palace, coming to Xu Xun here to ask An to speak, it is also a matter that should be shared. As for others, they are guests, can Xu Xun still beat them out?

Mama Li and Mama Sun crossed their fingers and counted who came how many times and who sat for how long...... Xu Xun never used scheming when talking to these newcomers, he didn't observe people or anything, and these things were done by gossiping grandmothers.

Actually, there are many places where there are many women. Xu Xun can be regarded as seeing through it now, and there is no such thing as competing for favor in the harem - although the emperor does not put much effort into the harem, this does not mean that you can say bad things about others in front of him, or pamper him to favor anyone. Unless you're a fool, who listens to you?

As for the fighting heart, can the harem concubines fight with the emperor with their experience and education?

Whether to serve or not to serve is not something that any concubine can have the final say, that is, six bureaus and one division, that is also independently responsible to the queen, if the queen wants to suppress someone, maybe she can also signal the Shang Sleeping Bureau to quietly detain the wooden card. However, this matter can't last, everyone has to gather together during the New Year's holidays, if the emperor sees you and thinks of you, and then asks casually, the Shang Sleep Bureau will have to be unlucky.

Therefore, in fact, if your new concubine has a strange personality, she can not go to see anyone, no one will have a relationship, if you can get the emperor's favor and sleep often, good things are still indispensable to you. At least theoretically, it would work.

But none of the newcomers in this group dared to be so maverick, knowing that it was no good to please their predecessors, but they still went up here and there to ask for peace every day, and Mama Sun and Mama Li were also very keen to remember the number of times they went to the palaces, although they didn't say it explicitly, but they seemed to have begun to divide the party according to the head.

Xu Xun asked himself if he couldn't give any benefits to the concubines who were not in the Yong'an Palace, at most they entertained a little good things when they came over, even the concubines in the Yong'an Palace, after helping Qing'er and Zi'er to invite pets that time, Xu Xun also felt that he had fulfilled his obligations and made superficial articles. She doesn't want to do such a thing in the short term - then again, she is also very convenient when the emperor is with her, Xu Xun is stupid, don't you want to promote the people under you?

Therefore, in addition to the relatively fair distribution of materials, there is really not much she can give them. Every time Zhao Zhaorong came over, Xu Xun was a little weak-hearted, but it was not good to see, so he had to talk to Zhao Zhaorong about some things outside the palace.

Compared with their batch of show girls, Zhao Zhaorong's education time is short, but in fact, it is equivalent to not having much education at all. -- Emperor Wen's filial piety began six months after the expiration of the Zhang Luo draft, and within two months a group of people were selected, and then Emperor Zhao died. During this period, it must not be continued, and then the Queen Mother and the emperor read it together and picked four people to come in. They didn't understand anything and were put in the palace, and Zhao Zhaorong now has to follow the rules of the palace with his grandmother when he gets up in the morning.

That is, because the time to enter the palace is very short, Zhao Zhaorong still remembers the life outside the palace very clearly, she is a native of Daxing in the suburbs of Beijing, she grew up in Zhuangzi since she was a child, and her family is a small landlord who cultivates and reads heirlooms. Talking about the fact that he has been playing outside since he was a child, it is true, Xu Xun can think of it when he hears it - in the summer, he followed the adults to watch the green, the wild boar ran to the field in the middle of the night, and the uncle went out with a gun, and even the neighbors beat the gongs and drums, scared the wild boar away, and beat the rabbit to stew and eat......

They are all young people, and the age difference is not a few years old, compared with Qing'er and Zi'er, who have been in the palace for too long, and the temperament of "ten thousand words is better than one silence". Zhao Zhaorong and Xu Xun must be more topical, Xu Xun is not wary of her, after all, they are both people from Yong'an Palace, and sometimes they don't know the rules when they see her behaving without knowing the rules, so they casually click a few words. Zhao Zhaorong is young and warm-hearted, and he is endlessly grateful to her, but he often comes to sit down.

When He Xianxian came to see her on this day, Zhao Zhaorong relied on her to play with the mutton bones - she washed the mutton bones and painted them with red paint to throw them around. When He Xianxian saw it, he was immediately interested, and said with a smile, "Where did you find so many good bones?" In our family, to have such a big one, the little sisters will be envious to death. ”

"There are a lot of sheep in the north." Xu Xun smiled and said, "How many sheep does Guanglu Temple kill in a day, if you want to play with this, don't you have all the orders?" ”

He Xianxian sat down and threw three handfuls in a row, left and right, the fancy play was breathtaking, Xu Xun clapped his hands hard, Zhao Zhaorong also cheered, covering his mouth and watching intently. He Xianxian was very proud, "I have nothing to do with throwing chess pieces to practice!" ”

The three of them competed for me to play for a while, Xu Xun saw that Zhao Zhaorong still didn't leave, and there was nothing he could do, so he smiled and left He Xianxian to eat, "It's rare to come here, don't go back." ”

Zhao Zhaorong only knew at this time that he was up to say goodbye, Xu Xun was still empty, He Xianxian smiled and said, "I don't eat anymore, it's taboo to have dinner parties during the New Year's Festival, so it's better to eat separately." ”

After sending Zhao Zhaorong away, she smiled at Xu Xun, Xu Xun said, "After all, she is a little younger......

He Xianxian pursed his lips, "There is nothing to be beautiful, and there are no rules for doing things well." They are all like this, and they come to the door all day long, and they don't know how to write honestly. ”

The old man is always not very happy to see the newcomer. Especially recently, the emperor has favored Cao Baolin and Wu Jieyu one after another, and Zhao Zhaorong's menstrual affairs must be favored after they pass. He Xianxian looked at this active newcomer, of course he was not angry.

"There are no good people around to help me." Xu Xun thought of her four grandmothers, she was really afraid and happy, the world said that she had good luck, and she felt that her luck should be on these four grandmothers. "I'm afraid that no one will teach them how to act in the palace."

It is said that the concubines of Yong'an Palace, except for asking Xu Xun for peace, are not allowed to go out at will, at least to find Xu Xun's peers and superiors It is best to ask for instructions. But Zhao Zhaorong is not sensible, Xu Xun didn't care about this stubble at first, and ignored it, but when he came back to his senses, Zhao Zhaorong had gone out several times. Qing'er and Zi'er also went out with them, but Xu Xun didn't want to make a big deal out of a trivial matter, so he didn't mention it.

He Xianxian sneered, "When will you kill it again, you will know that it is powerful......

Seeing Xu Xun glaring at her, she also breathed a sigh of relief, "My Jiao Zhaoyi there is the same, this matter is actually the queen's fault, and she can't clarify the palace fan." When is this, there are no more books and classes in the palace, if it is the same as when Emperor Wen was in the same time, explaining the rules and principles on a monthly basis, they will not be like headless flies, wandering around all day long. ”

Xu Xun sighed and smiled, "Where is my sister still impatient to say this now." ”

She still remembered Mama Sun and her gossip, because she brought it up and said, "It's these newcomers, even those four beauties, who have been to Changning Palace more than 20 times this month, and there are people asking for peace every day...... If the palace fan is clarified, maybe Changning Palace will be wronged again. ”

He Xianxian smiled, "Anyway, she doesn't know anything, and she will be the most aggrieved." ”

Xu Xun said angrily, "Who can you say good things about you?" ”

"In front of you, of course, to you." He Xianxian rolled his eyes and smiled very slyly, "As for being in front of others, you want to go yourself." ”

Xu Xun went up to tear her mouth, and the two of them had a fight, and He Xianxian said, "Speaking of which, this Zhao Zhaorong will not leave you in the future, and I am afraid that I will also wait for the eldest brother." Don't be deceived by her pitiful appearance, think that people are really so stupid and don't understand the rules, and need your guidance, I think she is a little confused. ”

Xu Xun was skeptical, "It's not enough, it's rare for the eldest brother to come once a month...... Even if she came over, she had to pass it on in advance, could she still rely on it and not leave? ”

He Xianxian couldn't make up his mind, because he only said, "Look at it, if you really don't have a plan, you might as well teach it well, now the slaves and maids in the palace don't live together, and no one knows whose affairs, Jiao Zhaoyi can often tell me something about other palaces." ”

She said it so whitely, Xu Xun didn't have anything to say, so she had to smile. He Xianxian smiled when he saw it, and talked about his daughter, "Dolls who are only a few years old are always sick, and they always have to worry once a month." When my mother entered the palace before, I asked them to go to the Buddha to offer incense......"

Xu Xun remembered that he forgot to let his family go to worship and make a wish, because he was busy and said, "You can remind me, I will also let my mother make a wish next time." ”

"What do you wish for?" He Xianxian's fox eyes bent, "Oh-I see, ask for a little girl?" ”

Xu Xun blushed and took a sip, "I don't believe you don't ask for it!" ”

Being said by He Xianxian, Xu Xun was also a little concerned, and the next time Zhao Zhaorong came again, she secretly paid attention to it. Coincidentally, the emperor asked her to go to Qianqing Palace several times, but it was not as good as Yong'an Palace, and she didn't have this opportunity to observe.

In February, Xu Xun almost forgot about it, and was sitting and talking with Zhao Zhaorong this day, discussing what flowers should bloom in February, and looking forward to the spring of Xiyuan - now his status is precious, not as good as when he lived in Nannei, he can still go to the East and West Gardens to play from time to time, and the concubines don't want to go out to have fun this year.

It just so happened that someone from outside came to spread the word, "Back to Niangniang, Bixia came from Qianqing Palace." ”

Xu Xun immediately stood up and wanted to change his clothes and makeup - if he was generally interested, it was time to say goodbye. The emperor came to find Xu Xun, and it is best not to appear in the main hall of Yong'an Palace if there are no people.

But Zhao Zhaorong sat still and didn't move, and only when Xu Xun and the eyes of the few grandmothers who hurriedly entered the house swept over, did she get up and smile, "Then I'll retire first." ”

Although it is also deliberately covering up, the grandmothers around Xu Xun have more favorable eyes? Even Xu Xun is not an ignorant girl who has just entered the palace now, Zhao Zhaorong's emotions, they can't see it?

When she came out of the house, Mama Sun and Mama Li glanced at each other, and they both shook their heads gently, and Xu Xun also sighed happily.

"It's boring." She said, "If you want anything, just say no, what's the matter?" ”

The two grandmothers didn't dare to speak: how could Zhao Zhaorong not say it, the mother really chatted with Zhao Zhaorong very happily for a while. Now that I come back to my senses, I am inevitably a little annoyed and angry.

Xu Xun was indeed quite unhappy, and he still said the same sentence: What do you want, you just say it. I can't say it, it's okay to show it, Qing'er Zi'er has been promoted, you, a high-grade concubine, no matter how there is always a chance to sleep, don't you do it?

is so hypocritical, but it's boring. I was chatting with her a while ago, but now I look back and look back like a fool.

Thinking about the personnel in the palace during this time, Xu Xun also sighed rarely, "People are as thin as paper." ”

The emperor had a chess piece in his hand and was taking a long exam, and he listened for a while, "What? People please fight to weave? ”

Xu Xun burst out laughing. "Big brother, how much do you love to fight crickets!"

The emperor stayed in Yong'an Palace for two nights, during which Xu Xun proposed and arranged a dinner party, and did not particularly hide it from Zhao Zhaorong. However, since that time, Zhao Zhaorong came to talk to her again, and she didn't want to see her.

"Niangniang also said that she wanted to make good connections." Mama Qian said about her.

Xu Xun was aggrieved, he couldn't swallow this breath, but Mama Qian was right, she couldn't answer for a while, she thought about it, and then broke the jar and said, "What is the use of such a person having a good relationship with her?" Let me hold my stomach, is it worth holding my illness? ”

Mama Qian shook her head and just sighed - since entering the palace, although there have been twists and turns, it has been smooth all the way, and she is respectful at the top. are proud now, saying that they are good friends, but how can they really be with the light?

But after all, he didn't say anything: there are no rules in the palace now, and it's like this, if you want to really make a good relationship, how can it be so simple? It is only serious to deal with the relationship between the concubines first.

It's not, it's just the beginning of spring, and there is another accident...&
