Chapter Eighty-Seven: Instigation

Qiao Xinyou hugged her green jade pipa with a smile on her face, and walked towards the Flying Feather Hall with all directions. In the evening, Xiao Dezi passed on to her, saying that after nightfall, Xiang Hongxuan asked her to go to the Flying Feather Hall to play music. She should be glad that she plays the pipa well, so she has not been forgotten by Xiang Hongxuan, and she will not become a resentful abandoned woman in this deep palace.

Maybe she shouldn't expect to be loved by the emperor in the deep palace, but she can't help but count on Xiang Hongxuan's favor, with this grace, she can gain a foothold in the harem, and she will be useful to Princess Zhaoqing, so she and Qiao Qi will have a good ending. Thinking of this, Qiao Xinyou tidied up her clothes again, there is a palace concubine like Xiao Xiangxiang, she has to serve Xiang Hongxuan carefully.

But as soon as she walked outside the Flying Feather Palace, Xiao Dezi blocked her way and whispered, "Qiao Gong people, please go back." ”

Qiao Xinyou immediately pulled down her face, her stiff body stood motionless outside the hall, she seemed to hear a little frolicking sound coming from the hall, she asked faintly: "Xiao Nu Shi serves His Majesty in the inner hall?" ”

Xiao Dezi nodded, Qiao Xinyou understood, Xiao Xiangxiang stopped her out of the door again, just now Qiao Xinyou was full of joy, and was smashed at this moment, she blessed Xiao Dezi slightly, and left a little reluctantly.

Suddenly, there was some faint dispute in the distance, Qiao Xinyou approached curiously, and saw Zhao Xinyue on the inside of the palace gate from a distance, and in front of her was Feng Yingying.

"Presumptuous, you little lady, you dare to walk in front of this palace, who gave you the courage to ignore this palace so much." Feng Yingying said angrily.

Xiang Hongxuan hasn't been to the harem for a long time, it is said that the Feiyu Palace is a daily sheng song, Xiang Hongxuan first has a drama palace person, and then there is a favorite concubine of the dead country, the spring in the Feiyu Palace is boundless, Feng Yingying inexplicably felt a little uneasy, she was afraid that Xiang Hongxuan would really forget her from now on. So she came to the Flying Feather Hall today, not only to brush up on her presence in front of Xiang Hongxuan, but also to see what the beauty of the Flying Feather Hall was.

Don't you want her to just step into the palace gate of the Flying Feather Palace, and see Zhao Xinyue coming to the Flying Feather Hall one step ahead of her, and they arrived at the Flying Feather Hall almost at the same time, Zhao Xinyue not only did not salute her, but also passed the palace gate one step ahead of her, the women of the Flying Feather Hall have not stopped, and the palace concubines in the harem are so impatient? The more she thought about it, the more angry she became.

"Concubine Shuniang, the concubine was in a hurry just now, and I didn't see you."

Zhao Xinyue looked at Feng Yingying with an angry face, although she was ten thousand dissatisfied in her heart, she didn't dare to conflict with Feng Yingying in the Flying Feather Palace. In terms of position, she can't compare to Feng Yingying, in terms of grace, Feng Yingying has a princess, how can she be better than her. If her prince hadn't died early, Feng Yingying would have been nothing. Of course, if it weren't for Feng Yingying, maybe Xiang Hong Xuan would be in Yingyue Pavilion that night, and her prince might not have died, thinking of this, Zhao Xinyue's eyes couldn't hide her obvious dissatisfaction.

"Even if Mrs. Zhao didn't see the palace just now, now that the palace is in front of you, you didn't salute the palace, so bold."

Feng Yingying used the topic a little to play, she knew that Zhao Xinyue's words just now were perfunctory to her, and Zhao Xinyue's face was full of dissatisfaction, Feng Yingying understood even if she was stupid, Zhao Xinyue was very reluctant to deal with her, of course, she didn't know that Zhao Xinyue's dissatisfaction was because of the early death of the eldest prince, or the competition between the harem women.

Maybe it's both, anyway, Zhao Xinyue's ignorance and perfunctory made Feng Yingying's uneasy heart touched again, is she still the concubine who spoiled the Sixth Palace back then? Feng Yingying looked at Zhao Xinyue, who was still motionless, she could no longer suppress the anger in her heart, she didn't care that this was in the Flying Feather Palace, and she didn't give up on Zhao Xinyue.

"Mrs. Zhao, are you inflexible in your legs and feet, and you need the help of the palace people to salute?"

Zhao Xinyue was stunned, she stared at Feng Yingying with a pair of burning red eyes, she was extremely reluctant to salute Feng Yingying, and before her angry tears fell, she turned around quickly and walked towards the outside of the Flying Feather Palace.

Feng Yuying sneered, and sure enough, she still had to have a tougher attitude towards these non-stop internal women. She thought of Meng Xuanrui in Xihua's harem, isn't this how Empress Meng governs the harem?

Anyway, it's not too generous like Ling Xi, although the atmosphere in Xihua's harem is very unkind, but it's really effective. Feng Yingying proudly walked towards the Flying Feather Palace, Qiao Xinyou, who saw this scene, hurriedly stepped aside, she bent down, lowered her head and didn't dare to look directly at Feng Yingying.

When Feng Yingying passed by Qiao Xinyou's side, she noticed the pipa in Qiao Xinyou's hand, and she remembered that there was a servant next to Xiang Hongxuan, could it be this woman?

Feng Yingying stopped, turned around and asked, "Who are you?" ”

Qiao Xinyou took a few steps closer to Feng Yuying and replied respectfully: "Concubine Shuniang, the slave maid is the palace man of the Flying Feather Palace, Qiao's family."

Sure enough, it was the servant sent by Zhaoqing to the palace, Feng Yingying took a closer look at Qiao Xinyou, and she did have a bit of a posture, especially her posture of holding the pipa in her arms, and her weak willow-like pace, which can indeed make people's eyes shine.

"I heard that you play the pipa very well, and Your Majesty likes it very much." Feng Yingying said with some taste.

Qiao Xinyou was stunned, it seemed that her unusual way into the palace still made the harem women have some scruples. If she really became a favorite concubine, it would be worth it, but it is obvious that Xiao Xiangxiang occupies the favor, so is it a little unfair to let her bear the burden of jealousy?

Suddenly, Qiao Xinyou's eyebrows raised, and she said softly: "Your Majesty only occasionally asks the slave maid to come to this Flying Feather Hall to play a few tunes to relieve boredom, and Your Majesty seems to be tired of listening to the slave maid's pipa music, and the slave maid was turned away today." ”

"Shut out?"

Feng Yuying was a little surprised, not that there were two talented women in the Feiyu Palace, so Xiang Hongxuan would linger and forget to return, and he didn't even enter the harem. But according to Qiao Xinyou's words, it seems that the infinite grace of the Flying Feather Hall has nothing to do with her.

Qiao Xinyou looked at Feng Yingying's surprised look, and she said slowly: "Your Majesty has a history of Xiao Nu by her side, I'm afraid I won't be able to see the slave and maid anymore." ”

"The history of the Xiao girl?" Feng Yingying muttered to herself, quickly falling into deep thought. She thought that Xiao Xiangxiang could become the favorite concubine of Nanxi's harem, she must not be a vulgar fan, and her previous uneasiness was not unreasonable.

Qiao Xinyou looked at Feng Yingying's preoccupied look, she blessed Feng Yingying slightly, and quietly walked outside the palace. She wanted to take advantage of Feng Yingying's failure to pay attention to her, and it was best to leave early, otherwise Feng Yingying's posture just now would embarrass her, and she could only suffer in vain, and it seemed that Feng Yingying listened to her words.

Not long after walking out of the Flying Feather Palace, Qiao Xinyou was in the moonlight, and vaguely saw Zhao Xinyue standing under the tree, angrily tearing off the flowers and leaves in the flowers. Qiao Xinyou remembered the conversation between Zhao Xinyue and Feng Yingying just now, and it seemed that the two of them had a holiday. From afar, Qiao Xinyou can feel the resentment on Zhao Xinyue's body, compared to Feng Yingying, maybe Zhao Xinyue is easier to be instigated.

Qiao Xinyou walked quickly to Zhao Xinyue's side, she saluted Zhao Xinyue respectfully, and said, "The slave has seen Mrs. Zhao. ”

Zhao Xinyue looked at the pipa in Qiao Xinyou's hand, and probably guessed who she was, she looked at Qiao Xinyou curiously, and said, "Excuse me, where are you going?" ”

Zhao Xinyue's face twitched with a hint of a smile, it seemed that Qiao Xinyou came out from the direction of the Flying Feather Palace, and they all said that Qiao Xinyou had been favored recently, could it be that Feng Yingying was jealous in the Flying Feather Palace, so Qiao Xinyou would appear here? Thinking of this, she secretly rejoiced, if Feng Yingying disturbed Qiao Xinyou's grace, or annoyed Xiang Hongxuan, either way, it seemed to be a good thing for her.

"The slave maid was ordered to go to the Flying Feather Hall to play music for His Majesty, but the Xiao Nu Shi is serving His Majesty, so the slave maid left this Flying Feather Palace." Qiao Xinyou said lightly.

"The history of the Xiao girl?"

Zhao Xinyue frowned, she was a little disappointed, things were a little different from what she thought, and it seemed that the dispute with Feng Yingying just now was not important. How could she forget that there is also a favorite concubine of the dead country in the Flying Feather Palace, Xiao Xiangxiang dares to intercept the favor of the Hu family in the Flying Feather Palace, this Xiao Xiangxiang is not simple.

"It's not quite in line with the rules, is it?"

Qiao Xinyou looked a little aggrieved, and whispered: "Your Majesty likes the history of Xiao women, and slaves and maids are used to it. ”

Zhao Xinyue pulled down a handful of flowers and leaves, she rubbed them in her palms for a long time, she had thousands of thoughts in her head, according to this situation, I am afraid that Xiang Hongxuan will forget her soon, so what should she do in the future?

.....................................................................................................................

Feng Yingying listened to the frolicking sound in the hall, and slowly stepped into the inner hall, she saw Xiang Hongxuan lying on his back on the soft collapse, Xiao Xiangxiang dancing on the side, Xiang Hongxuan glanced at Feng Yingying, immediately got up and sat on the soft collapse, and said, "Concubine Shu is here." ”

Feng Yingying only cared about looking at Xiao Xiangxiang, she forgot to salute Xiang Hongxuan, so she didn't listen to Xiang Hongxuan's words, Xiang Hongxuan looked at Feng Yingying staring at Xiao Xiangxiang's distracted gaze, he coughed lightly twice, and explained: "There have been too many state affairs recently, I am a little tired, look at the singing and dancing of Xiao Nushi's relief." By the way, what is the matter with Concubine Shu coming to the Flying Feather Palace? ”

Feng Yingying also came back to her senses, she took a few steps closer to Hongxuan, and said softly: "After the queen gave birth, she has not been out of Qingfeng Garden for a long time, and the concubine wants to give Niangniang a garden, so that Niangniang can relax and soothe some of the sadness in Niangniang's heart." ”

Of course, Feng Yingying couldn't tell Xiang Hongxuan, she came to Feiyu Hall to see what the beauty of Xiao Xiangxiang's favorite concubine was, so she found a reason, a high-sounding reason and a reason to win Xiang Hongxuan's favor.

Xiang Hongxuan's face froze, since Ling Xi's miscarriage that day, he and Ling Xi hadn't seen each other for more than a month, he hadn't been to Qingfeng Garden, and Ling Xi hadn't come to Feiyu Palace. Xiang Hongxuan looked out the window wistfully, summer has arrived, I wonder if this scorching summer breeze can soothe Ling Xi's grief of losing his son and father? Ling Xi's silent sadness made Xiang Hongxuan blame himself. He was even more unsure if Ling Xi blamed him, after all, Ling Xi had a miscarriage in his arms.

Xiang Hongxuan sighed lightly and said: "Concubine Shu has a heart, the queen is not in good health, you are the palace concubine with the highest ranking in the harem, you can do it, you must make the queen feel comfortable." ”

Feng Yingying left the Flying Feather Hall with some reluctance, she had served Xiang Hongxuan for so many years, and Xiang Hongxuan's expression was very sad just now, she knew that Xiang Hongxuan was no longer in the mood at the moment, she could only withdraw from the inner hall with interest.

Xiao Xiangxiang picked up a glass of wine and came to Xiang Hongxuan's side, she handed the wine to Xiang Hongxuan's mouth, and said softly: "Your Majesty, will the concubine dance for you again?" ”

Xiang Hongxuan took Xiao Xiangxiang's wine glass with one hand, he held the wine glass in his hand for a while, and said faintly: "I'm tired today, you can step down." ”

Xiao Xiangxiang looked at Xiang Hongxuan in disappointment, after she entered the palace, she had never seen Xiang Hongxuan with such a mournful expression, and she had never been so snubbed by Xiang Hongxuan, Xiang Hongxuan was because of the queen? Or is it because of the queen's child who just had a miscarriage? Unconsciously, Xiao Xiangxiang's heart became a little uneasy.
