Shu Mulu asked curiously, "What is this for?" But it's taking too much energy to swim all the time? ”

Ling Ruo shook his head and said, "No, it's because they don't know what to be full, as long as they have food, they will keep eating until their stomachs burst." ”

Shu Mulu's face couldn't bear it, and he said again and again: "Ah, that's too pitiful." ”

Ling Ruo said disapprerovingly: "We feel pitiful, maybe the fish don't think it, they think they can eat it all the time but they are happy." Man is not a fish, and he can never understand the joy and sorrow of fish. In fact, sometimes, even people themselves can't tell what is happy and what is sad. ”

Shu Mulu was touched by her sadness just now, and felt that the medicine he drank in his abdomen was about to move again, as if he was about to vomit, and couldn't help but stroke his chest.

"Is there something wrong with Hui Guiren?" Ling Ruo asked with concern.

Shu Mulu hurriedly said: "The concubine has nothing to do, I think I used more breakfast just now, so I feel a little sick to my stomach." ”

"That's good." Ling Ruo bowed his head and said: "Speaking of which, since the Hui nobles entered the palace, this is the first time that this palace has chatted with you, which is really rare." ”

"The status of the mother is noble, and she takes care of the fourth elder brother, and the concubines dare not disturb." In fact, if it weren't for this unexpected encounter, Shu Mulu would never be alone with Ling Ruo, because she knew that Empress Lu Dao had never liked this Concubine Xi, she was the one who was picked up by the queen, so how could she get too close to Concubine Xi.

How could Ling Ruo not know what she was thinking, but she didn't reveal it, she just said: "The fourth elder brother is already older, and many truths have been understood, and there is no longer any need to ask about everything in this palace." As for the noble status, we are all all waiting for the emperor, so there is no distinction between high and low. ”

Shu Mulu smiled without saying a word, stood for a while, and when she was about to excuse her departure, Ling Ruo suddenly said: "Looking at the Hui nobles, the palace often thinks of the dance you danced on the drum on Chinese New Year's Eve, the beauty of the dance, the ingenuity of the conception, it is really amazing for the palace." ”

Shu Mulu said humbly: "Niangniang laughed, how can a little vulgar dance skills of the concubine get into the eyes of the mother." ”

"Hui Guiren doesn't have to be polite, besides, you can get the queen's mother to give you this opportunity to dance, so as to get into the eyes of the emperor, which is also your blessing." Ling Ruoling's lips hooked slightly, and she said, "But did the queen mother tell you that your eyes are very similar to a person?" ”

Eyes like people? It was the first time that Shu Mulu heard this, shook his head and said: "The queen has never said this to her concubines, and she asked her to make it clear." ”

"Hmm." Ling Ruo looked at her who was a little nervous and said: "It is a woman that the emperor likes very much, sometimes looking at you, the palace will always think it is her, think about it, the emperor will also have such an illusion." ”

This made Shu Mulu's pretty face pale, and he subconsciously wanted to touch his eyes, which ...... Could it be that the emperor favored her because of these similar eyes?

Ruliu saw that the master's face was wrong, and said: "Concubine Xi, dare to ask which woman the emperor likes?" ”

Ling Ruozi didn't say Nalan Mei'er's name, but said, "It's inconvenient to say this palace, and it's no good for you to know the truth." But being able to be like her is also a blessing for your master, a pair of eyes, and a nobleman's position, what's not bad? And according to the emperor's favor for Hui Guiren, if Hui Guiren can give birth to a son and a half daughter, it is not impossible to be a concubine. ”

Ruliu was speechless, although she didn't think so in her heart, but she couldn't think of a rebuttal for a while, so she could only look at Shu Mulu at a loss, lest she feel sad.

Shu Mulu squeezed out an ugly smile, "Cheng Niangniang Jiyan, I'm afraid that the concubine won't have that blessing." ”

"Hui nobles don't want to be arrogant, until the last one, who knows if there is a blessing in the road." Ling Ruo glanced at her meaningfully and said, "Okay, it's time to go back to this palace, do you want to go to Chengqian Palace with this palace to sit." ”

Shu Mulu lowered his head and said: "The concubine still has something to do, so I won't bother the mother." ”

"Okay, come over when you're free, the palace is always welcome." After Ling Ruo left, Shu Mulu's body shook for a moment, and Ruliu hurriedly helped her to sit down on the stone bench by the pool, "Master, don't think too much, maybe Concubine Xi is just talking nonsense, if the emperor really has a favorite woman, then why didn't the slave and maid see a concubine in the palace whose eyes are similar to the master's." ”

Shu Mulu was not relieved by her explanation, and said in a low voice: "Although I don't know why Concubine Lu Daoxi wants to say this to me, I intuitively feel that what she said is the truth, that is to say, when the emperor saw me, what he thought of was not the name Shu Mulu Jiahui, but another person we don't know." Speaking of this, she suddenly showed a distressing smile, "Ruliu, I just told you that the emperor treats me with great grace, but it turns out that it is not, he just uses me as a stand-in." ”

Ruliu held Shu Mulu's cold hand tightly and said, "Master, don't think about this, you don't have to make your heart sad." ”

"Stand-in...... Chess pieces ......" The smile on Shu Mulu's face continued to expand, and the meaning of sadness became more and more obvious, "There is no identity named Shu Mulu Jiahui. Ruliu, do you think I look like a joke, a joke that is ridiculed at will. ”

Ruliu shook her head busily, "No, you are a noble person, a favorite concubine of the emperor, not a joke." Even if it ......" she bit her lip and said in a low voice: "Even if the emperor uses the master as a stand-in now, one day, he will understand the master's goodness and really like the master." ”

"Huh." Shu Mulu sneered, obviously not believing Ruliu's words, there are countless women in the palace, and every three years a group of rookie girls are selected, her appearance is not outstanding among the women, how can she have such confidence and expectations. Perhaps, she can only be a stand-in for the rest of her life.

Ruliu was afraid that she would be cranky, so she hurriedly said, "Master, let's go back." ”

Shu Mulu was about to nod, but suddenly remembered something, changed his words, and said, "I want to go to Kunning Palace." ”

Ruliu was taken aback by her, and blurted out: "Master, don't you want to question the queen mother about concealing the stand-in, right?" Don't, you can't even put up with that medicine, why bother with this, if you make the queen angry, it will be troublesome. ”

"I know the way, but it's because I can't even put up with the medicine that I want to ask her, why didn't she tell me this in advance, even if it was a stand-in, at least let me understand it clearly, instead of not knowing anything like now, waiting for others to tell me."

Shu Mulu guessed that Concubine Xi told her this, and it was likely that she had no good intentions, but she didn't care about it so much, she endured the pain of having no heirs, and was willing to become a pawn in the hands of the queen, but she didn't want to go to the bottom of the line, and even lost herself.
