Chu Qingli only felt that the women in the palace were stupid, the emperor was so old, and he was the most unwholehearted person, how could there be so many women who wanted to go to the palace? Although the palace is full of noble people, not all of them can be prosperous and rich, so aren't there many poor women in the cold palace?

At the beginning, it was nothing more than some scenes, which made Chu Qingli drowsy, and she didn't know how she survived, anyway, when Chu Qingli returned to consciousness, the emperor was already drinking with a wine glass, and the sound of singing and dancing in front of him continued, but Chu Qingli was full of interest.

Fang had just eaten a lot of preserved fruits, so now Chu Qingli was not very hungry, she ate two mouthfuls of food casually, and she didn't touch a drop of wine, after all, Xiao Pan was staring at her from the side, how dare she?

It was already hot this day, although the temperature at night had dropped a lot, but this room full of people still made Chu Qingli sweat a thin layer of sweat. Chu Qingli approached Xiao Pan and whispered in her ear, "I'll go out to breathe." ”

Xiao Pan looked at Chu Qingli with his spare eyes, bowed his head slightly, and reminded in a low voice: "Let Qinghe follow, don't go too far." ”

Chu Qingli nodded, and he should be done. While these royal nobles were all paying attention to the singing and dancing in front of them or chatting with the people on the side, Chu Qingli secretly slipped out of the side door.

The evening breeze blows slightly, and the stickiness caused by the light sweat disappears instantly, and there is still some refreshing coolness. Chu Qingli walked to the east, the sound of silk and bamboo in his ears gradually faded away, and his ears finally had a moment of peace.

Walking to Huaqing Pond, Chu Qingli stopped, because of the water source, when the wind blew, it carried bursts of water vapor, so that most of the summer heat dissipated.

Chu Qingli held on to the fence and took a deep breath, and could still smell the fragrance of lotus leaves. Xu has been out for a long time, Du Qinghe is worried that the emperor will blame, after all, this is not King Mu's mansion, it is better to be cautious.

Du Qinghe stepped forward at the right time to remind Chu Qingli and said, "Princess, let's go back." ”

The boredom in Chu Qing's centrifugation had dissipated, and he couldn't eat anything just now, but now he felt empty and wanted to eat something. Chu Qingli nodded, but as soon as he took Du Qinghe two steps, he met Shen Qiurong head-on. Chu Qing paused on his face, and then greeted her, "Concubine Rong." ”

Shen Qiurong seemed to have eyes on his head, and looked at Chu Qingli with his chin held high. After a moment of silence, he reluctantly said to Chu Qingli, "Get up." ”

Chu Qingli thought that there was nothing good to meet her, so it was better to leave quickly. "Niangniang, I've been out for a long time, so I'll go back first."

As soon as Chu Qingli raised his feet, Shen Qiurong really lived up to expectations and opened the golden mouth, "Slow." ”

Chu Qing scolded bitterly, but there was a smile on his face when he turned around, "Is there anything else going on with Concubine Rong?" ”

Concubine Rong didn't seem to hear Chu Qingli's words, and asked the palace maid beside her side, "What kind of congratulatory gift did she give?" ”

Chu Qing was close to the station, so she listened to the words of Shen Qiurong and her maid word for word. Chu Qing secretly slandered himself in the centrifugation, could it be that Shen Qiurong is really a calculating person? Now that grace is like this, what will you care about what she gives? Don't you want to deliberately make things difficult for yourself, right?

However, Shen Qiurong's words did make Chu Qingli frown and think about it, she handed over the congratulatory gift to Du Qinghe, as for what she prepared, she really didn't know anything.

Chu Qingli turned his head slightly sideways and looked at Du Qinghe, but Du Qinghe hung his head, and he didn't see Chu Qingli squeezing his eyebrows hard at all.

"Hui Niangniang, it's a piece of Hetian jade, and her appearance is exquisite," the maid beside her answered Shen Qiurong's question honestly. This congratulatory gift passed through the hands of this maid, and she was naturally clear in her heart who gave what.

Chu Qingli secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, Du Qing and this girl did a good job, otherwise let Shen Qiurong use this as an excuse to make things difficult for her, she was not unjustly panicked.

Hearing this answer, Shen Qiurong snorted coldly, obviously not the answer she wanted. She let out a cold snort from her nose with disdain, "What kind of good jade is not in this palace, and this palace will still be rare in her jade?" Shen Qiurong's sarcasm when she said this was fully revealed, as if Chu Qing was no longer in front of her.

Chu Qingli held back his anger, and the irritability that had just been blown away by the wind came back to his heart. Chu Qingli squeezed out a false smile vigorously, "Niangniang is favored by the emperor, I haven't seen any kind of baby, and the things I send naturally can't get into Niangniang's eyes." ”

Being praised by Chu Qingli like this, the corners of Shen Qiurong's mouth turned up proudly, "Do you know that you still send such useless things to this palace?" Although Shen Qiurong was happy in her heart, she didn't want Chu Qing to have a good time, the filthy things in her body before made her sick for a few days, today is her birthday, why not take this opportunity to humiliate her?

Chu Qingli endured and endured, but Shen Qiurong had to inch in, and he didn't know how to restrain himself, since this was the case, Chu Qingli didn't need to give her a good face anymore, Chu Qingli straightened up, saw Shen Qiurong with a frank look, and stretched out his palm in front of Shen Qiurong.

Shen Qiurong was confused by Chu Qingli's actions, and was stunned for a few seconds before he asked suspiciously, "What do you mean by this?" ”

Chu Qingli raised her eyebrows slightly, "Didn't Niangniang say she didn't like it?" In that case, it must be placed in the Niangniang Palace, and the Niangniang is also bored when she looks at it, so it is better to return it to me, and see something new in the future, and then make up for the birthday gift for the Niangniang. When Chu Qingli said this, she didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it, since she didn't look down on that piece of jade, instead of wasting it in her palace, it was better to return it to herself, and I don't know how much silver Du Qinghe spent to buy back that piece of jade, if it was too expensive, it was really cheap Shen Qiurong.

Shen Qiurong thought that he had never met someone who wanted to return the things he had sent, and he didn't know how to deal with it for a while. Blinking his eyes and thinking for a moment, he came back to his senses and stumbled and said, "What...... Where is someone going to give something out, and ...... Do you want to go back? Shen Qiurong obviously lacked confidence, and it was her who just said that she didn't want, and now it's her who doesn't give it, which is really hard to understand.

Chu Qingli saw that Shen Qiurong didn't want to return it, so he retracted his hand, looked at Shen Qiurong and said: "You also know that this congratulatory gift was given by someone else, since it is someone else's kindness, you should accept it happily if you like it or not, how can you still hold on to the good or bad of the congratulatory gift to Niangniang, I don't know, I still think that Niangniang has not seen anything good, and I expect to receive more expensive gifts on my birthday." ”
