Chapter 7: Gathering on a Snowy Night

At this time, Gong E came in to report that Concubine Ning had come to ask for peace.

"Let her in." Queen's Road.

After a while, Concubine Ning walked in with a smile, this was the first time Yao Duran had taken a closer look at her, she looked like she was in her twenties, but she was also a bright beauty.

Concubine Ning bowed down in front of the queen's seat: "The concubine visits the queen's mother, the mother is a thousand years old, a thousand years old." ”

"Well, excuse me, give me a seat." The queen's words are leisurely.

"Thank you, Queen Mother."

Yao Duran hurriedly moved the footstool over, and Concubine Ning's palace helped her sit down.

"Niangniang is really shining day by day, who said that the years are ruthless? The concubines looked, and the years favored a beauty like Niangniang. Concubine Ning looked at the queen and smiled flatteringly.

The queen was coaxed by her and smiled: "You have such a mouth, no one in the palace can match it." Okay, that's the end of the story, it's time to get down to business, right? ”

Concubine Ning smiled and nodded: "Niangniang, the concubine's incense pill has run out." ”

After hearing this, the queen was very satisfied: "Well, you are really obedient and sincere. It's just that this batch of incense condensing pills hasn't been made yet, and during this period, you can watch it. ”

"Yes. Then next, the concubine will go to Yingqing Temple to eat fast and pray for blessings, and then come back after the medicine is made. Concubine Ning said.

The queen lowered her eyes and played with her armor, and said casually: "It is naturally feasible." ”

"Yes, the concubine will go out of the palace today to live in the temple and pray for the blessing of the mother every day." Concubine Ning said, stretched out her slender hand, and Gong E behind her hurriedly helped her stand up.

The queen raised her eyes and glanced at her, and said meaningfully: "This palace just likes your loyalty, take it well, once your loyalty is lost, your life will be lost." It's not like Concubine Yu's end. ”

Concubine Ning listened, her face was slightly panicked: "Niangniang, the concubine has always been loyal to you, please Niangniang Mingjian!" ”

"This palace naturally knows, what are you panicking about. Twilight, go and shake the pair of coral beads on the dressing table of the main palace and give it to Concubine Ning. ”

"Yes." Yao Duran walked to the dressing table and opened a brocade box, which was indeed a pair of gorgeous flowing coral steps. After Yao Du closed it, he came back with the brocade box and handed it to Concubine Ning with both hands.

"Thank you for the reward!" Concubine Ning personally took it with both hands.

"Alright, let's go back." Queen's Road.

"Yes, the concubine retired." Concubine Ning took Gong E's hand and saluted and left.

Yao Duran had doubts in her heart. What is Concubine Ning's incense pill? Why did the queen order someone to make it for her? And during the withdrawal period, Concubine Ning still can't stay in the palace?

This palace is really secret, and it is a mystery everywhere.

After Yao Duran stayed in the hall for a while, the tonic soup on the side of the dining room was stewed. She left Fengyi Palace with the food box and went to Xiahou Bo's Yilong Palace.

The palace road was tortuous, and she asked for directions a few times before finding it. She reported her identity and intention, and the attendant in front of the palace went in to report, and after a while, the attendant came out and invited her in.

As soon as Yao Duran entered the Dragon Palace, her beautiful eyebrows wrinkled, and a strong smell of wine came to her nose in the hall. Xiahou Bo was lying on the couch casually, and when he heard the footsteps, he looked over with his hand on his forehead.

This is like a king who is suppressed by his wife and has no choice but to drink to drown his sorrows.

Yao Duran approached with the food box and knelt down to salute.

Xiahou Bo frowned after looking at her: "You are the new palace lady in the queen's palace?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, yes."

"Your face ......," he said slowly.

Yao Duran hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, the slave maid didn't know what she had eaten wrong, and suddenly there were some spots on her face, which stained Your Majesty's eyes, and the slave maid deserved to die." ”

"That's it. Why did the Queen send you? Xiahou Bodao.

"Back to Your Majesty, the queen mother heard that Your Majesty's dragon body was out of harmony, so she specially asked the slave maid to send you tonic soup." Yao Duran said as she opened the food box and took out the tonic soup.

"Well, put it down, you can step down." Xiahou Bo didn't look at the soup.

"Yes, the slave and maid are gone." Yao Duran saluted and left with the food box.

As soon as he got down the steps in front of the Yilong Palace, Yao Duran heard the voice of the attendant behind him: "Little Tanzi, come in with a silver needle." ”

Yao Duran listened to it and understood in her heart. The silver needle is used to test poison, and Xiahou Bo actually guarded against the queen. It is also sad to say that although the two are married and married, they have done their part, not only separated for a long time, but also guarded against each other. The heavenly family is really ruthless.

……

Yao Duran returned to Fengyi Palace and reported to the queen, she thought the queen would ask a few words or something, but she didn't ask anything.

Thinking about it, it's no wonder that her deliberately ugly face can arouse the king's interest.

The queen looked at her face and laughed a little: "Okay, go and wash your face, this palace looks awkward, and there is no need to hide it when Your Majesty comes in the future." ”

"Yes, slave and maid obey."

……

At dusk, it snowed again, and the sky was full of snowflakes, which looked very beautiful.

During dinner, Xiao Yue came to Fengyi Palace with a body of snow foam.

Seeing this, the queen was distressed, and personally brushed the snow from his eyebrows with her hands.

Xiao Yue took a few steps back and said with a smile: "Niangniang stay away from me first, don't give the cool air to Niangniang, Xiao Yue is going to feel distressed." ”

When the queen heard this, peach blossoms appeared on her beautiful face: "Sit down, the palace has already ordered someone to pass the meal." ”

Yao Duran waited for them to have dinner. Another palace lady who was supposed to go to the night Liuxia came to replace her, and the queen only cared about the affection with her lover, so Yao Duran saluted and retired.

Outside, night had risen, and the stars and moonlight were shining brightly. The floors of the palace are tired, and the palace lamps are all lit up, and they are brilliant under the snow, and the beauty is romantic and special.

After Yao Duran returned to the room, she was ready to rest for a while before going to dinner. As soon as she lay down on the bed, she jumped up in shock!

Her bed was all soaked?!

How so? Who did it?

She had just moved into the lower courtyard, and before the newly cleared room could be equipped with chains, someone had slipped in!

Yao Duran was stunned for a moment, and suddenly had a number in his heart.

It seems reasonable that the man could do such a thing.

It's just enough to know who it is, and wait and see what happens.

Yao Du calmed down, looking at the cold and wet bed, this is not easy to do, how to sleep tonight?

She was worried when there was a knock on her door. Yao Duran opened the door and saw that the person who came was a faceless waiter.

The waiter smiled politely: "Miss Yao, the little one's name is Fuquan, and she came to speak for Chief Qiao." Mr. Qiao invited you to go to his room, it was snowing and cold today, Mr. Qiao ordered someone to prepare a warm pot of wine in the room, and invited a few people with a good relationship to get together. ”

Yao Duran was a little surprised, the life of the people in this Fengyi Palace is very nourishing, and Qiao Fengzhi is the head of the first palace, so he is even more free.

"I see, I'm tired of you running away, I'll be there later." Yao Duran responded.

"Miss Yao is polite, Mr. Qiao's room is in room No. 5 on the west side."

"Okay, I remember."

After Fuquan left, Yao Duran closed the door and changed into the clothes that had just been stained by the bed, and then left the room and walked towards the west wing opposite.

Room 5 was quickly found by her, it was brightly lit, accompanied by bursts of laughter, wisps of fragrance came to the nose, permeating the front of the room, in this snowy night, it was very warm.

Yao Duran knocked on the door, someone opened the door, and the waiter who opened the door saw her and laughed: "Manager Qiao, your wife is here." ”

"Haha......" The room was filled with the sound of other people's laughter.

"Madame Joe, please come in."

Yao Duran walked in with an embarrassed face, knowing that this day's kung fu was passed on to ten, ten to hundred, and all the palace people in the lower courtyard already knew about her and Qiao Fengzhi.

"Here, sit down." Qiao Fengzhi looked at her with a light smile.

"Thank you, Mr. Joe, for the invitation." Yao Duran looked roughly, his room was really different from the others, it was spacious and exquisite, warm and comfortable. The round table is full of colorful dishes, meat and vegetables, very hearty. In the middle of the dish is a warm pot with fragrant soup tumbling.

Qiao Fengzhi sat on the upper seat, and there were three chamberlains and two palace ladies sitting at the table.

"Hello everyone." Yao Duran said hello, and everyone smiled and agreed.

Fuquan, who had just spoken, smiled and pointed to the empty seat beside Qiao Fengzhi: "Mrs. Qiao, you can sit over there." ”

"Please don't call it indiscriminately." Yao Duran said as he sat down beside Qiao Fengzhi.

Qiao Fengzhi picked up the chopsticks to pick up the vegetables for her, and said, "You haven't had dinner yet, have you?" Eat more and warm the pan to resist the cold. ”

"Oh, it's really lovely." Immediately, someone made a weird joke.

Qiao Fengzhi glared at them with a shallow smile: "You are not affectionate, why do you bother to bring your friends over?" ”

Everyone laughed, and the two palace ladies who were a little bit of a look of beauty also took on a shy look.

Fuquan smiled and introduced to Yao Duran: "Miss Yao, this is Su Chuan, my good look, this one is Liu Mei, Shuanglu's good look, both of them are kind and honest people, Miss Yao is new to the city, and she can't only contact the manager all day long, right?" In the future, Miss Yao can get closer to the two of them and take care of each other. ”

It turns out that there are two couples sitting at this table, and it seems that this court is not only inhumane and absurd, but also a little lively.

Thinking about it, Yao Duran responded politely: "I see, I'm new here, and I need everyone to take care of me, Su Chuan and Liu Mei are willing to be close to me, of course I'm happy." ”

Su Chuan and Liu Mei listened, smiled and chatted with her, and the three of them got close and warm.

After they finished greeting each other, Qiao Fengzhi turned his head sideways and asked her, "Can I drink?" ”

"Let's have a few drinks." Yao Duran couldn't bear to be disappointed, so she had to agree, in fact, she hadn't drunk alcohol at all, so she could try it.

Qiao Fengzhi personally poured wine for her, and said, "Eat some before drinking, otherwise it will be uncomfortable." ”

"Okay." Yao Duran picked up the chopsticks, picked up the vegetarian dishes on the plate and ate a few bites, which were very delicious.

Su Chuan saw that she had all the meat left on her plate, and smiled, "It seems that Twilight doesn't like to eat meat." Liu Mei, come, boil some lotus root mushrooms in front of you and let Twilight eat them. ”

Qiao Fengzhi also looked at her plate, she didn't move a bite of the meat he gave her, he suddenly realized something in his heart, and then sandwiched all the meat on her plate into his own plate, and ate it all by two.

Seeing this, Yao Duran knew that he understood.
