Ling Ruo's fingers tapped lightly on the armrest and said, "If you don't count, you have to count, we are always one and the same; But it's not necessarily that there is no chance. Speaking of this, a strange smile appeared on the corner of his lips, "Sister, you say, what will happen if we reveal this matter to the Nian Clan?" ”

"You mean to let the Nian family go to find trouble with the queen?" Saying this, Wen Ruyan's eyes gradually lit up. Hongsheng is Nian's heart, and now that Hongsheng has died tragically, Nian's hates to eat the murderer's meat, even if it is just one-sided, it is enough for her to lose her coolness. That's a really good idea.

Ling Ruo nodded affirmatively and said, "Yes, although it is not enough to bring down the queen, it is enough for her to have a headache for a while." ”

Guerjia was a little hesitant, "But will she suspect that this is our plan?" And thus refuse to be fooled? ”

"This sister can rest assured, even if she really suspects that this is a plan, she has no heart to distinguish, what Nian's needs most is a channel to vent the pain of losing a child, believe me, she will definitely be fooled." Wen Ruyan said with great certainty, because to some extent, she is the same as Nian's, so she can understand Nian's mood very well.

When he came out of Yanxi Palace, it was the hottest time of the day, and he was sweating after just a few steps, but Ling Ruo said to the Guerjia clan who was raising his hand to cover the sun: "Is my sister interested in walking with me?" ”

Guerjia glanced at her in astonishment, and then said with a smile: "Walking outside on such a day is really a test for me, what's the matter, but what is there in my heart that I can't understand?" ”

Ling Ruo smiled bitterly: "I really can't hide anything from my sister, I have something to say to my sister." ”

Guerjia thought for a moment and said, "Then go to me, you can skip it, I'm afraid I'll faint after taking a few steps." It just happened that I just soaked a melon transported from Xinjiang this morning, and now I take it out and eat it, which is the best way to relieve the heat. ”

"Okay." Ling Ruo got on his shoulders according to his words, followed Guarjia to Xianfu Palace, and before entering the hall, he saw a woman in palace clothes standing under the eaves, only to see her eyebrows like willow leaves, eyes like apricot blossoms, a little blink of an eye, there seem to be countless flowers and leaves flying, people can't take their eyes off, Ling Ruo recognized her, she is the show girl who entered the palace in last year's draft, the daughter of Liu Man, her appearance is extremely outstanding in the same show girl, only Tong Jia's can be compared with it. However, due to the limitations of her family background, she only has a permanent register.

When Liu saw them coming, he saluted on his waist and said politely: "The concubine has seen Concubine Xi Niangniang, and she has seen Concubine Jinniang. ”

"Liu Changzai doesn't need to be polite." Ling Ruo motioned for the Liu clan to get up while holding the shoulders of the palace people's subordinates, and on the other side, the Guerjia clan said: "Didn't this palace tell you, you don't have to come over every day to say hello on such a hot day, and there are no such rules in the palace." ”

Liu smiled softly, like a willow poplar in the spring breeze, looking very comfortable, "The concubine has been in the Xianfu Palace these days, and she has been taking care of her mother, so she should ask her mother for peace, and besides, coming from the concubine, it is only a short road, and there are trees to cover it, so it is not hot." ”

Guerjia smiled and said: "That's it, you won't listen to what the palace says, but it's been a long time?" ”

Before Liu could speak, the palace man next to her had already preemptively said: "Back to Niangniang, Niangniang just came out when the master came over, and it has been almost more than an hour." ”

Liu Shi hurriedly drank, "In front of Niangniang, how can you allow a little girl to talk too much, don't hurry up and retreat." ”

Guerjia's eyes flashed, and he said indifferently: "It's okay, you too, since the palace is not here, just go back, why wait here all the time." And how did that ** person do things, how can you let you stand outside like this, it's really unreasonable. Wu Hai, what is the reason why you dare to snub Liu Changzai? ”

Wu Hai is the chief eunuch of Xianfu Palace, and he was waiting on the side, when he heard the words of the Guerjia clan at this moment, he hurriedly stepped forward to call a thousand, and said aggrievedly: "Back to the master's words, how dare the slave snub Liu Changzai, the slave didn't know how many times he persuaded him before the master came, but Liu Changzai insisted on standing outside and waiting, how could the slave be reluctant." ”

Liu also said on the side: "Yes, Niangniang, this is all the concubine's own meaning, don't blame Gonggong Wu." ”

Guerjia's face turned cloudy to sunny at this time, and he took Liu's hand and said with concern: "You can't do this again in the future, otherwise if you really suffer from heat stroke, how can you let this palace feel good." ”

Liu said movingly: "Xie Niangniang cares." ”

Guerjia's chin said: "Since you are here, you will go in and sit for a while with the palace, I don't know what the mother wants?" In front of outsiders, she maintained due respect for Ling Ruo.

Ling Ruo nodded and agreed: "This is naturally good, the left and right palaces and concubines are just casual chatter, and it is more lively to have one more person." ”

Liu saluted again, bowed his head and said, "Then bother the two mothers." ”

After entering the hall, Guerjia took the face towel handed by the palace man and wiped his cheeks and said softly: "This day is really hot and frightening, just a moment later, my face is red, and I don't know if it will get sunburned." Then he instructed the palace people to go down and cut the melon in the well water.

The palace man moved very fast, and after a while, he put the peeled melon in the ice bowl, and put a piece of it in his mouth with a silver skewer, and when he bit it gently, the sweet juice accompanied by a stream of coolness flowed into his throat, eliminating the heat that had just entered his body.

Ling Ruo was about to sign another piece, when he suddenly saw the Guerjia clan smiling over there, and said strangely: "What are you laughing at?" ”

"It's nothing, the concubine just thought that when there was a drought in the capital last summer, the ice in the ice cellar was taken by the emperor to relieve the victims, and each palace and courtyard only had one piece of ice at most every day, which was as comfortable and refreshing as it is now."

"The concubines also heard about this, and they also knew that Concubine Lu Daoxi was high and bright, and took the initiative to ask the emperor to reduce the ice used in the Chengqian Palace, which really made the concubines admire it tightly."

Listening to Liu's words, Ling Ruo couldn't help but smile and said: "What kind of temperament is not immoral, this palace actually doesn't do anything, not to mention that the first person to cut the use of ice is the emperor, Liu Chang should also admire the emperor." ”

Liu Zhengse said: "Whether it is the emperor or Concubine Xi, they are all people who care about the suffering of the people, and they are worthy of the respect of their concubines." ”

"Okay, okay, don't praise this palace, otherwise this palace will not be able to sit still." Ling Ruo's words caused the two to chuckle, and after eating a bowl of melon, the Liu family got up to say goodbye, and the Guerjia family didn't stay much, but ordered Congxiang to send the remaining half of the melon to the Liu family's courtyard.

After Liu's thanksgiving left, Guerjia bit the silver skewer that had not yet been accepted and said with a smile: "What do you think of this Liu's? ”

Ling Ruo didn't answer and asked, "Does she come to say hello every day?" Come rain come shine? ”

"Yes, rain or shine." Gualga replied with a deep smile.
