Chapter 274: Sowing Discord

"It seems that the queen is very satisfied with this trip," Xiao Shujun could feel from Qin Kexin's tone.

Qin Kexin heard this, and nodded heavily, he was indeed very satisfied with this spring outing.

"Concubine Xi can make the queen so happy, it seems that I have to reward her with something." Xiao Shujun hadn't seen Qin Kexin so heartily happy for a long time, and he was very grateful to Concubine Xi.

Xiao Shujun rewarded the concubines because they served Qin Kexin well, which is also rare.

At the mention of Concubine Xi, Qin Kexin's expression seemed to change slightly, not as happy as just now.

Xiao Shujun felt Qin Kexin's subtle changes, and thought that it was because he said the wrong thing that made Qin Kexin unhappy, so he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with the queen?" ”

Qin Kexin hesitated for a moment but decided to say it, "Today, Concubine Xi told her concubine about her life experience, she was forced here by the king of Xiqi, and she was very sorry for her. ”

In fact, these new centuries have long been heard, but she knows that this kind of thing is common between the two countries, but Concubine Xi was very unlucky to be chosen by the king of Xiqi.

These are all powerless things, so Xiao Shujun comforted Qin Kexin and said: "Queen relax, don't think so much, Concubine Xi's status in this harem is second only to you."

The days in the palace will not be sad, since the queen mother can talk to her, she will talk more, so that she can forget the troubles of her hometown as soon as possible. Xiao Shujun knew that Qin Kexin was kind-hearted, so he specially supported her.

Qin Kexin nodded when she heard this, knowing that what Xiao Shujun said was reasonable, and she also asked Xi Guifei today, she wanted to continue to stay in the Central Plains, and she couldn't make any decisions about what to do for her, and it was best to go with the flow.

"The queen is tired for a day, she must miss someone's house, go and let Yu'er help change clothes and bathe, I am waiting for the queen in bed, and I will sleep with the queen in my arms." Xiao Shujun has developed the habit of not being able to sleep without holding Qin Kexin.

"Okay, the concubine will come when she goes." Qin Kexin played for a day, and was indeed a little tired, thinking that it was time to throw himself into Xiao Shujun's arms.

When she got up early the next morning, Ning Er came to Soft Xiangyuan with a food box, saying that it was a pastry prepared by Xi Guifei herself, and she wanted Qin Kexin to taste it.

Qin Kexin tasted it in his mouth, but his heart was indescribably sweet.

Although Xiao Shujun is very good to Qin Kexin, Qin Kexin really thinks that she has never had such a female confidant who is so good to her, and she always thinks about herself.

The previous Su Lianrong and the like were not the same kind of people as Qin Kexin in the final analysis.

But this Xi Guifei is different, she always gives Qin Kexin a feeling that she can meet someone who is unattainable.

So Qin Kexin wants to cherish this friendship.

Yu'er saw Qin Kexin laughing while eating, and couldn't help asking, "Niangniang, is this pastry made by this Western Guifei really so delicious?" ”

"Ahem......" Qin Kexin coughed dryly a few times and came back to his senses.

"It's delicious, of course it's delicious, I don't believe you can taste it!" As he spoke, he handed Yu'er a piece of pastry.

Yu'er took it and put it in her mouth, the melt-in-your-mouth feeling hit Yu'er's taste buds, Yu'er couldn't help but smirk, gave her thumbs up and said, "Delicious, delicious!" ”

"Stupid!" Qin Kexin saw Yu'er smirking and couldn't help but tease.

In the days that followed, the news of Qin Kexin's friendship with Concubine Xi spread throughout the harem.

"I heard that the queen mother and the western concubine have been very close recently, and the relationship is very good!"

"Yes, I've heard it too, you said that the two most powerful women in the harem have joined forces, and what else is going on with us!"

"That's it, now let's not say that we can't get His Majesty's favor, even the queen won't look at us anymore, and she's busy playing with the concubine."

"Our life in this harem is even more difficult."

The concubines talked about Qin Kexin and Xi Guifei after tea and dinner, as if they had paranoia of being killed, and even said that it would be unfavorable for them if the queen mother and Xi Guifei were friends! It's a joke.

When these words were heard in Su Lianrong's ears, it seemed like a thorn in her heart.

As everyone discussed, if the queen mother and the concubine join forces, wouldn't Qin Kexin be even more stubborn?

Su Lianrong didn't allow such a thing to happen, so she instructed her concubine Concubine Qin to sow discord between the two.

Although Concubine Qin is Su Lianrong's subordinate, she is not as shrewd as Su Lianrong, and when she received the task given to her by Su Lianrong, she knew that she was going to sow discord between the queen mother and the western concubine, but she just didn't know where to start.

So I was always looking for opportunities.

There is a feeling that Huang Tian has lived up to his heart, and he was finally waited for by this Qin Concubine to have a chance.

One day, Concubine Qin happened to bump into Ning Er, who gave pastries to the queen mother in the name of the West Guifei, and after asking, she learned that because the queen mother likes to eat the pastries made by the West Guifei herself, Ning Er went to the soft fragrance garden to deliver pastries almost every day.

When Concubine Qin learned about it, she knew that the opportunity had come.

can't wait for Su Lianrong's praise for her.

Although Su Lianrong and Concubine Qin have the same position, Su Lianrong's father is Prime Minister Su Cheng, and any concubine in the palace has to look up to each other except for the queen mother and the western concubine.

So on the second day, Concubine Qin pinched the time and waited on the way to Ning'er to deliver the pastries.

Sure enough, I met Ning'er again.

Concubine Qin stepped forward at the right time, "Miss Ning'er, send pastries to the queen again." ”

Ning Er was withdrawn and didn't want to talk to many people, so when she heard the words, she said: "Qi Qi Concubine Qin, exactly," after speaking, she walked by Concubine Qin and left directly.

Who would have thought that at this time, Concubine Qin actually pretended to have a broken foot, fell to Ning Er, bumped Ning Er, and pretended to fall herself.

Ning Er fell, and her first reaction was that her pastries must not be fine, so she was looking for her own pastries all over the ground, but there was no one on the ground, Ning Er was wondering, and when she looked up, she saw that Concubine Qin's maid actually caught the food box.

Ning'er breathed a sigh of relief.

Next, I saw that the maid hurriedly put the food box on the ground steadily, and then hurried to help Concubine Qin: "Niangniang, are you okay?" ”

Concubine Qin's hypocritical cry was painful.

Ning Er was hit by Concubine Qin and it really hurt, but Ning Er knew that she couldn't delay the delivery of the pastries, so she endured the pain and got up and said, "The queen is still waiting for the pastries, and the slave and maid will leave first." ”

Regardless of the fact that Concubine Qin, who was still sitting on the ground, picked up the food box on the ground and walked quickly towards the soft fragrance garden.

Concubine Qin behind her saw Ning Er walking away, and immediately returned to normal, with no expression of pain at all, but looked at Ning Er's back and hooked the corners of her mouth, and then asked her maid, "Did the medicine spill in?" ”

"Back to Niangniang, sprinkle it in." The maid replied without hesitation.

"Good." Concubine Qin smiled proudly when she heard this, thinking that she would definitely be able to successfully sow discord between the queen mother and the western concubine this time, and she would have completed Su Lianrong's task!

Ning Er walked quickly to the Soft Fragrance Garden.

Qin Kexin was already waiting for Ning'er who was delivering the pastries.

Although Ning'er came a little late today, Qin Kexin was a little anxious, but it didn't affect Qin Kexin's appetite at all.

Although Qin Kexin's own pastries are also delicious, she prefers to eat those made by Xi Guifei.

Even now, looking forward to Ning Er sending this melt-in-the-mouth pastry every day, Qin Kexin often teased if Xi Guifei put something addictive in this pastry to make herself so fascinated.

Every time, Concubine Xi smiled and said that Qin Kexin thought too much.

Qin Kexin tried to let Xiao Shujun also taste the pastries made by Xi Guifei, saying that what Xi Guifei made was better than what she made, so let Xiao Shujun taste it.

But Xiao Shujun was very stubborn, and every time he said: "Pastries, I only eat the queen's making!" ”

How can there be such stubborn people in the world? Qin Kexin admits defeat!

Yu'er took the food box and put it on the table, and Qin Kexin couldn't wait to signal Yu'er to open it.

Qin Kexin picked up a piece of pastry and was about to stuff it into her mouth, when she suddenly felt that this pastry was a little different from the previous one, and after careful inspection, she found that there was a lot of imperceptible powder on it, Qin Kexin didn't think much about it, thinking that it was something that Xi Guifei put in order to add texture to the pastry, so without too much hesitation, she stuffed it directly into her mouth and enjoyed the food.

After the water and rice were full, Qin Kexin wiped her mouth with satisfaction and said to Ning Er: "Take the food box back, tell your master that the pastries are delicious, and you can change the rose flavor tomorrow!" ”

Qin Kexin is really 'insatiable'

"Okay, the slave and maid will retreat first." Looking at the food box that was eaten up by Qin Kexin, Ning Er smiled heartily.

"It's really strange that Niangniang loves to eat the pastries made by the Western Guifei so much." Yu'er said.

Qin Kexin didn't think it was strange, turnip and vegetables had their own loves, maybe the pastries made by Xi Guifei were just right for her appetite.

Qin Kexin finished eating the pastry, and began to embroider sachets for Xiao Shujun again, this time the embroidery technology, Qin Kexin used the new technology of Yinxitang, so it was a little difficult to embroider, it was very time-consuming, I am afraid that it will be completed together with the camphor lotus that needs to be dried for a few months.

But Qin Kexin had just finished half of the embroidery, and she felt that her brain was groggy, at first she didn't care, thinking that she was sleepy after eating too much, but after a while, she felt that something was wrong, and she fainted directly.

"Mother, what's wrong with you!" Yu'er hurriedly ran over to support Qin Kexin and prevent Qin Kexin from falling to the ground.

Then he hurriedly called a few palace maids to help Qin Kexin to bed, and then ordered: "I'll go to the imperial doctor, you go and inform Your Majesty that Niangniang has fainted." ”

"Yes!" The palace maid agreed, so the two went their separate ways.

Xiao Shujun heard that Qin Kexin fainted, so he quickly put down the fold in his hand and rushed to the soft fragrance garden.

Xiao Shujun arrived at Soft Xiangyuan, and the imperial doctor was already diagnosing Qin Kexin.

Xiao Shujun anxiously paced back and forth in front of Qin Kexin's window, not knowing what was wrong with Qin Kexin, very worried.

After a few moments, the Imperial Physician seemed to have finished his examination and stood up.

"How's the Queen?" Xiao Shujun hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

"Your Majesty, the queen mother is like this because she has eaten soft English powder, this soft English powder is a kind of medicinal material, but it may be fatal if it is eaten by mistake! Fortunately, the amount of the queen's mother does not eat much, and it is not a big problem to slow down a little. The Imperial Physician explained.
