The three of them looked at each other, and Xiao Liangyun glanced at Qiluo. Qiluo retreated directly to the entrance of the corridor, and Qin'er also entered the house to prepare tea for Xiao Liangyun.

At this time, Xiao Liangyun looked at the two concubines in front of him, glanced at the two of them and looked at the scenery not far away, and smiled, "The two mothers said that they laughed, and Yu'er is just an ordinary daughter of a general." I am fortunate enough to marry into the royal family, I just want to be able to support each other with His Royal Highness, Mrs. Shangguan, you are an old lady's relative, that is, my relative, but you can't talk and do things so messily, if you don't want to come to chat and drink tea, then Yu'er will leave. ”

"Hey, the princess stays." Shangguan Jin suddenly shouted to Xiao Liangyu, and said softly to Concubine Shu, "The concubine has already told my sister that the Night Princess is not very old, and she doesn't have many eyes, she is just a beautiful boudoir reading lady, where does she have the ability to turn the clouds and rain." ”

"It's that the palace thinks too much about the princess." Concubine Shu also smiled kindly, "This palace just heard that those subordinates said about the princess's talent and musical talent a few days ago, and I heard that these two princes want to marry the daughter of the Xiao family, so I thought too much." If the princess doesn't mind, forgive the palace for its weakness, and come over to drink a cup of newly picked lotus leaf tea in the palace earlier. ”

"This weather has entered late autumn, where did you pick the lotus leaves?" Xiao Liangyun was puzzled and stared at their cups curiously. Seeing this, Shangguan Jin hurriedly smiled and said, "Why not?" Sister Shufei is also peculiar here, there is a covered shed in the backyard, and there are a lot of lotus leaves in the shed, which is five or six degrees hotter than the environment here! ”

"Oh? It's amazing. Xiao Liangyun's interest was piqued, and at this time, Qin'er also brought tea over and handed it to her.

Taking the delicate teacup with carved patterns, a fresh fragrance came to her face, and she took a deep breath of the aroma.

"It's actually the dripping lotus of Xitang?" I immediately found this smell in my head. "Xitang, it's several times farther away from the capital than the mountain that falls on the mountain."

"The things that Concubine Shu took out are really different, and the taste is also very unique."

"Yes, this is the lotus leaf from Sister Shu's hometown that was transplanted!"

"That's not right." She thought about it carefully, from just entering the house to now, all the plant furnishings, and the types of plants, are clearly vegetation that is not available in the Central Plains, and she said that the growth and Qin'er said that she took care of it herself, proving that she is familiar with all the growth laws of these plants. What is the origin of this Concubine Shu? ”

"Sure enough, it's superior." She didn't show any other emotion, just continued to praise the lotus leaf, and then stared at the woman's reaction.

There are no anomalies.

The three of them laughed and talked on the stone table, just chatting about some ordinary palace routines.

"When my sister went home half a year ago to see her relatives, she saw the princess once, and the princess was still a quiet lady at that time, and she came over to give the old lady acupuncture with a cloth bag, but at that time she was extremely beautiful."

"The mother always laughs at me." She laughed as she fiddled with the delicate handle of her teacup.

Not far away, another palace maid walked over unhurriedly, and then whispered something in Concubine Shu's ear, and then Concubine Shu put down the teacup, still with a light and breezy expression.

"Your Majesty will come to the Xianfu Palace of the main palace in the evening, and the main palace has to be cleaned up first, and the palace will be forgiven for being rude and leave first."

"Congratulations to the mother."

After sending this woman away, Xiao Liangyun didn't need to hold much of the official tone and shelf, the whole person was a lot more comfortable, she knew that this Shangguan Jin was not a scheming person, so she asked her while biting the lotus root flour osmanthus cake.

"What is the origin of this Concubine Shu of Xianfu Palace?"

"She? Sister Concubine Shu doesn't like to compete for favor, and Concubine Yu is the same group of people who entered the palace before and after. I heard that she is the daughter of the Feng family of the Jiangnan scholarly family, her name is Feng Wanshu, and she is as gentle as her, like an orchid, not impatient or impatient. I've been in the palace for so long, and I haven't seen her take the initiative to compete for favor, but every time His Majesty is not very comfortable, he will come to Xianfu Palace for acupuncture. ”

"Born in the Jiangnan area?"

"Yes, I don't know if these other concubines are from Jiangnan, but Feng Wanshu must be from Jiangnan."

"Mother, why are you so sure?"

"Because of her tune, when I was in the side hall, I often heard her humming a lot of strange tunes, graceful and moving, although I don't know where this is the tune, but when I asked her the next day, she told me about the tune in her hometown of Jiangnan. The song sings so well, it must have been born in Jiangnan, yes. ”

"Is that so?"

"I guess so." Shangguan Jin nodded, "You do look much more sensible than Xiao Yu." ”

"Aunt laughed at Hu'er, she never saw her aunt when she was a child, so her aunt shouldn't know Hu'er's temperament."

"Are you blaming your father and mother?"

"Back to my aunt, Yu'er's mother is dead." She said lightly, responding positively to her words. Shangguan Jin's face was not too good-looking, and he said with some embarrassment, "No matter what, you are now a princess, aren't you." ”

"I think, is my aunt looking for the wrong person, although Yu'er is the princess, but she is not as good as the second sister, the second sister is married to the prince, and she is the future emperor, even if she is a side concubine, she has a higher status than me." She originally had a good impression of Shangguan Jin, but when she heard her talk about her mother as if she was not enough, her temper suddenly came up, she forcibly endured the discomfort, and pushed her out with the kindness of sending her to the door, Shangguan Jin is not smart, shelter her? It's not as good as a few poisonous flowers.

"Princess!" Shangguan Jin stopped her as she was about to leave, "Is there anything else?" ”

"You are a smart person, the aunt of this palace told me, let this palace find you, communicate with you more, since you are close to my aunt, this palace hopes that you can stand in the camp of this palace."

Finally speaking, Xiao Liangyu secretly sneered in his heart, and turned around with a aggrieved and depressed little family tone, "Auntie, Yu'er has no ability, and she doesn't have the ability to let the prince come over to support anyone, the prince is withdrawn and doesn't like to get close to people, don't embarrass me, that's it, the prince will be anxious when I go back late." ”

After saying that, she walked out without looking back, and heard the sound of teacups falling on cups and saucers in the distance, and she and Qiluo walked to the door.

Passing through the last corridor, the palace maid who had just reported to Concubine Shu stood at the end of the corridor dignifiedly, as if she had known that they would come here, and said softly.

"Princess Niangniang, Concubine Shu wants to invite the princess to sit alone."
