Yongning Palace——

Looking at the sides, Wan Yuyao coughed lightly a few times, making the hall quiet.

The gloomy eyes were aimed at Wan Li, and Wan Yuyao said slowly:

"Today is the day when the sisters of the palace and the harem get together, I am afraid that it will be inconvenient for you to stay as a courtier, so let's go to the side hall and wait for the palace first."

Wan Li pursed his lips after hearing this, his greedy gaze still lingered on Gu Yunjin's flower-like face, and he replied without turning his head:

"Eldest sister, what are you anxious about, my brother has been in the palace to see you for a long time, and I didn't give one of you, so I was in a hurry to get my brother to do something? Since the younger brother is your own brother, he and the concubines are naturally not outsiders, why can't you add a younger brother when you gather to play? ”

Wan Yuyao's expression froze and she didn't speak.

Concubine Ye was drawing a tourmaline necklace on her chest, and when she caught a glimpse of Wan Li's reluctant look, she accompanied her smiling face to play a round field:

"Yes, yes, Hou Ye is thinking about Niangniang in his heart, just once Niangniang is going to drive people away, isn't it time to blame the concubines and wait? In this way, how can the concubines still have the face to sit in the Niangniang Palace again? ”

Wan Yuyao sighed lightly and said lazily:

"That's it, that's it, if he likes to stay, let's stay."

Her eyes changed slightly, and she flipped to look at Gu Yunyao, who was silent on the other side, and Wan Yuyao's smile became cold:

"Sister Yu, don't sit alone, and go over to choose the jewelry you like."

Gu Yunyao stood up and said:

"The concubine thanked Niangniang and Hou Ye for their kindness. The mother has just been rewarded, and the concubine is satisfied, and she doesn't dare to accept it for nothing. ”

Wan Yuyao no longer persuaded her, her eyelashes drooped slightly, and the cold glow swept past her eyes.

Vermilion nails caressed the phoenix-patterned gold wire trimmed sleeves, Wan Yuyao sneered, and said in a casual voice:

"Sister Yu, this palace knows that you worked hard last night, and it is not easy to serve the emperor before your body is raised, so I specially ordered the kitchen to stew a bowl of tonic soup, the temperature is just right at this time, you drink it while it is hot to nourish your body."

As soon as the words fell, a palace maid came in from outside, holding a tray, and a bright yellow dragon and phoenix glazed bowl on the plate.

The scene fell into an unusual silence again, and several eyes fell on the white-glazed bowl.

Wan Yuyao's eyes widened, and the excitement that she couldn't hold back for a long time coated her beautiful face with a layer of evil shell.

Her eyes suddenly saw a bright and aggressive, and she coldly pulled her lips and smiled:

"Sister Yu, drink this bowl of tonic soup. The palace and the sisters are still waiting for you to give birth to the dragonborn as soon as possible and spread the leaves for the royal family. ”

Wan Li took his hands, stood in the middle of the temple with his long body, and asked:

"It's so fragrant, what kind of soup is this?"

Concubine Ye covered her nose with a silk handkerchief and smiled:

"Naturally, it's codonopsis black chicken soup! Hou Ye doesn't know, this party's participation in the black chicken is a perfect match, the two things, a cold and a hot food are counteracted, and the soup stewed is the most suitable for women to tonic, I think our mother is really partial to Sister Yu. ”

Concubine Ye came from a medical family, and served as the imperial doctor of the Dayi Palace for three generations since her great-grandfather.

She knew best what was added to that soup, and the portion was not light!

Wan Yuyao casually stared at Concubine Ye, and said in her words:

"This palace knows that you are used to being sour and jealous, and you have that energy, you might as well learn a thing or two from Sister Yu, know how to serve the emperor wholeheartedly, and you can also make this palace worry-free."

Concubine Ye and the others hurriedly got up and said in unison:

"The concubine obeys."

Gu Yunyao's heart was tightened, and a clear light flashed in her eyes, and she immediately understood the colored glazed bowl.

Drinking soup is probably the real purpose of the imperial concubine inviting her to Yongning Palace today.

There is something wrong with that bowl of black chicken soup, and if the poison is slow.

There are still a few palace concubines present at the moment, and she Gu Yunyao naturally can't shirk it. Even if there is a difference after the soup is drunk and returned to the palace, these concubines present can become helpers to help the imperial concubine commit perjury.

In the blink of an eye, the black chicken soup had been served in front of Gu Yunyao's eyes, and the palace maid's eyelids were raised, and her eyes were fixed on Gu Yunyao's slightly twitching facial features, and she had the momentum of forcing her to immediately raise the bowl and drink it all before she would stop.

Song Qin walked around in two steps to Gu Yunyao and knelt on the ground, frequently clasped his head to Wan Yuyao, and pleaded sadly:

"Imperial concubine, slave maid, please let my master go! She has never fought with the world in the palace, she just wants a stable place, Niangniang is gracious, don't embarrass her again-"

Song Qin has been in the palace for some years, and she has seen too much about the secret things in the harem.

Her predecessor Yu Meiren was favored because of that year, and was tricked by Wan Yuyao into drinking safflower soup during the decay period until she was infertile for life, and finally died in the palace.

Now Wan Yuyao is afraid that she will have to repeat her old tricks again, forcing her new master to comply.

Seeing Song Qin crying and begging, Concubine Ye's gorgeous facial features did not have half pity, but with a hint of ridicule and sneer, and sharp words followed:

"Oh, what are you talking nonsense, you minion! Niangniang is sympathetic to your master, but a bowl of tonic soup is just a reward, how do you spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain? ”

The concubines on both sides immediately gossiped and accused Gu Yunyao and her subordinates of being rude.

Without waiting for Wan Yuyao to speak, Wan Li angrily rushed to Songqin, raised his palm and tore a cold wind into the air, and slapped it fiercely on Songqin's delicate side face.

With the burning pain, her weak body immediately fell to the ground.

When everyone was still stunned, Wan Li flew up and kicked Songqin's waist firmly, and then kept lifting and falling, scolding sharply in his mouth:

"Cheap slave who doesn't know the rules, this king will slaughter you today-"

Songqin gritted her teeth bitterly and endured the beating of Wanli.

"Stop—"

Gu Yunyao threw herself to protect the master, her scarlet eyes glowed, and she begged in a trembling voice:

"Hou Ye is angry! She is only dedicated to protecting the lord and is not at fault, you have to punish this palace and wish to accept it on her behalf. ”

There were a few noises outside, and the next moment the door curtain was tall again, and Gu Yunxi walked into the main hall with a food box in his hand.

When his eyes crossed Gu Yunyao, there was a wave of headwind, but Gu Yunxi was still respectful and humble on the outside, and he did not reveal any fierce emotions in his heart.

In front of everyone's eyes, she stepped forward carefully, stopped at a suitable distance and blessed Wan Yuyao:

"The slave and maid Chuxiu Palace maid Tu Duxue have seen the imperial concubine, and the mother is blessed with Jin'an."

Turn around and salute to both sides:

"The slave has seen all the masters, and I have seen the Marquis of Kagura."

The concubines sat quietly on the chairs, all with different expressions, some panicked, some disgusted.

Wan Li's eyes looked closely, and he saw that Gu Yunxi's posture was flat, and the corners of his mouth were pressed down and a touch of disgust overflowed.

Wan Yuyao leaned over and was stunned for a while, and then suddenly became angry, and her crisp hand gripped the golden armrest that hit the circle chair, and asked in a scolding voice:

"Bold, who allowed you in? How can the palace people trained by Concubine Xu not understand the rules so much-"

Gu Yunxi hurriedly knelt down, put the food box aside, and said humbly:

"Niangniang is angry, I learned that you are sick, and my master specially ordered the slave maid to make a few new hors d'oeuvres and serve them into the Niangniang Palace.

Among them, there is a "Jiuzhen Volcanic Crisp" with a peculiar taste, but the way to eat is complicated, and the slaves and maids are afraid of oral errors, so that the mother can not taste the essence of food.

Therefore, at this time, if the mother does not dislike it, the slave is willing to serve the mother and taste this snack with her own hands. ”

For nothing else, Gu Yunxi just wanted to delay as much time as possible and wait for the queen's guard of honor to arrive.

Wan Yuyao was impatient at this moment, how could she be in the mood to taste dim sum.

After Gu Yunxi finished speaking, her cold eyes swept across the maid beside her, and motioned for her to accept the food box.

Immediately waved his hand at Gu Yunxi:

"Okay, stay in the East and West Palace, you can go."

Gu Yunxi blinked, looking a little innocent and innocent:

"Niangniang, that volcano-shaped dim sum eating method is really different, please be merciful, let the slave maid personally serve you before leaving, can you?"

Wan Liteng's anger on the side, his arms were raised, and he yelled and scolded:

"Can't you minions understand human speech? If you tell you to get out, you can get out, don't feel uncomfortable-"

"Yes, yes, Master Hou is not angry, slave and maid will get out of here, let go of this ......"

Gu Yunxi put on a face full of panic and grievances, stood up with a small body, bowed slightly, and then turned his head to leave.

Before she could take a few steps, she suddenly turned sideways and bumped into the palace maid who was holding the tray.

The girl let out an exclamation of "ah", and watched as the glazed bowl poured out of her hand, fell to the ground and shattered.

Looking at the soup, her face turned pale and her body was soft on the ground.

Beside her, Gu Yunxi's head was lowered, and his smiling eyebrows were hidden in the shadows.

Just now, at the moment when the concubines were dividing up a box of jewelry, Gu Yunxi had hurried to Yongning Palace but was stopped outside the gate by the inner attendants.

Gu Yunxi begged for failure, so he opened the food box and presented the snacks inside to the waiter.

He had never seen such a strange dessert, which looked like a black hill that could not be slapped in the hand, standing in the center of a disc with a white jade bird entwined with branches, black and white complementing each other. The top of the mountain is sunken into small patches, and the surrounding area is sprinkled with icing sugar as if it were covered with snow.

Listening to Gu Yunxi say that what kind of wine should be poured on this snack and lit with a fire fold, in short, what he said was something difficult to understand.

The chamberlain listened to the clouds, and was afraid that she would not be able to tell clearly when the mother came to ask after a while, and she would be punished by the moody her, so she let Gu Yunxi enter the palace alone.

Gu Yunxi strode to the corridor of the main hall, and heard Concubine Wan forcing Gu Yunyao to drink soup, Songqin's crying and Wanli's violent shouting, and the sound of palpitating corporal punishment.

Gu Yunxi couldn't think too much, raised her hand to open the palace maids who were blocking her on both sides of the curtain, and walked into the main hall.

Seeing that the soup with ingredients was all over the ground, Wan Li was the first to react from the silence, and his facial features were hideous for a while, and his fingers Gu Yunxi scolded:

"Bold and cheap, dare to knock over the tonic soup that the mother rewarded the concubine, what crime should you be guilty of!"

Gu Yunxi bowed his head, and between his eyebrows was a disguised panic, trembling and pleading:

"Niangniang forgives the sin, the Hou Ye forgives the sin, the slave and maid are in a hurry and don't pay attention, and spare the slave and maid this time."

At this moment, the copper bell was crisp, and then a white shadow flashed vigorously.

Wan Yuyao's pet white cat came out of nowhere, probably because he smelled the aroma of meat, and quickly jumped out, picked up a piece of chicken from the broken porcelain and chewed it.

"Ahh Snowball—"

No one expected this change, Concubine Ye suddenly closed her mouth after shouting on the spot, and looked at Wan Yuyao in astonishment.

Wan Yuyao is somewhat calm, she should have done too many evil things like this, so she is used to covering up her ups and downs properly. Only grabbed one hand of the palm Lihu, his heartache eyes were quenched with infinite hatred, and he quietly watched the white cat swallow the piece of meat, and kept licking and wiping the soup stains on the ground with his tongue.

Gu Yunxi's cold eyes were like electricity, and he had already seen the changing expressions of Wan Yuyao and Concubine Ye clearly.

Her eyes darkened suddenly, and she understood everything.

"Dare to ask Niangniang, what did you add to this body-tonifying soup?"
