The autumn cicadas are noisy and cold, and the drizzle hits the plantains. Summer is fleeting, autumn is getting deeper. The death of Concubine An did not cause much splash in the palace, and everyone talked about it as a concubine who had been favored. And Zixin beside her, who once served by the side of the dynasty, was canonized as a promise a few days ago, but she just agreed, and everyone didn't take her seriously.

On the stage, the horns of Dan are tactful, today Qingyu invited the concubines to listen to the play in the palace together, the red wall and green tiles, the bluestone path, this stage is far from the carved beams and paintings of the ordinary palace, Yuyu Qiongshuang, but it has its own tranquility.

"Ghosts on the eve are also, and people today are also. Ghosts can be vain, and people must be courteous. Qing Shi sat in the back, listened to the lyrics sung by the servant and was shocked to feel a little familiar, the water sleeves were slightly raised and the warbler was soft, it turned out to be "The Peony Pavilion".

Qing Shi suddenly remembered the scene when Long Keduo took her to Chajialou to listen to the play, it was the "Peony Pavilion" that made her mind wander, she had also dreamed of love, looking for her 'Liu Mengmei', but Xuanye was not a dream plum after all, this relationship was illusory, so that she could see it very unreal, and when she woke up, she dreamed of it and her love was endless, which was really annoying.

That day, Riyin told her that she saw Long Keduo in the palace, and asked her to take care of herself, so she stroked the Qingtang jade hairpin that Long Keduo gave her when she walked into the palace. But there was no trace of him, and Qing Shi turned sideways and asked Xiang Nianjin in a low voice: "Have you seen my Qingtang jade hairpin?" ”

"The minion groomed the little master today." Nian Jin speculated, "Xu fell on the road." ”

Qing Shi was quite worried, and Ziyin stepped forward and said, "The slave went to find the little master." ”

Qing Shi saw Ziyin retreat into the back row and leave, and his heart was also tight, although this hairpin was extremely valuable, in Qing Shi's heart, it was the same weight as the jade bracelet that Qing Yu gave her.

At this moment, the stage has sung Qing Yu's "Wutong Rain", which is the third play, Chen Xuanli broke up Luan Fenglu, and Ma Weipo hanged Yang Yuhuan.

"I can't plant an acacia tree in front of me, I can't wait to hold the interpretation flower in the palm of my hand, and I will cross the same green luan in this life. How to love him and look at him like a child, how to teach and drag down the slope of Ma Wei! ”

Qing Shi saw the treacherous waves on the stage, but the seat was peaceful, Qing Shi didn't ask if this was the same, and he didn't want to listen.

Concubine Wen Guifei looked at the lingering parting on the stage, the corners of her eyes were raised, and she complained to Cheng Guiren: "Since I was a child, I hate listening to operas, babbling and not knowing what to sing, and it hurts to listen to it." ”

Cheng Guiren laughed embarrassedly, and said eloquently: "Niangniang, don't be impatient, let's order something interesting later." ”

"I don't know how the imperial concubine likes to listen to this kind of play." Concubine Wen muttered, but Concubine De listened to her.

"It's a pity that this world is impermanent, although the mountain league is here, the brocade book is difficult to trust. What about Yang Yuhuan's grace on the eve, in the end, he still ended up burying incense. ”

Concubine Yi raised her eyes and looked at Concubine De: "In the end, this Yang Yuhuan has also been favored, and the Ming Emperor will not forget it until he dies, on the other hand, Concubine Mei, Gu Gao I, can the Ming Emperor still remember?" ”

Concubine De shook her head and smiled: "Blessings and misfortunes, in the end, it was Yang Yuhuan who was hanged to death if the Sixth Army did not send it, not Jiang Caiping, and it was Yang Yuhuan who left this infamy through the ages."

Concubine Yi glanced at her: "Huaqing is used to bathing, spring and dew, this kind of favor is beyond the reach of many concubines." has always only been in charge of the things in front of him, and how to honor and disgrace behind him is decided by his descendants. ”

Qing Yu smiled on her lips: "Whether she is Yang Guifei or Jiang Caiping, in the end, she will be ancient, right or wrong, let future generations say." After all, Emperor Tang Ming and Yang Guifei were hindered by their identities, making this relationship a dream. ”

Qing Shi listened to the discussion of several of them, her thoughts have long been far away, she is used to disliking this story, Emperor Tang Ming seems to have a deep love for Yang Guifei, but at the end of the day, he still gave up a woman for the sake of the country, what is the former mountain alliance and sea oath?

What does this Anshi Rebellion have to do with women? In the beginning, the whole world was destroyed, and the woman was made a sinner.

If the king is not a mistake in the life of a beauty, if he marries an ordinary person's family, Yang Guifei will not bear the charges of the ages, and the Ming Emperor does not have to ride the red dust and smile with the concubine, and the three thousand favors will set her together.

Qing Shi looked out, and Ziyin's figure gradually became clear.

"Little Lord." Ziyin handed the Qingtang jade hairpin to Qing Shi's hand.

Qing Shi was surprised and delighted, took it and touched it repeatedly, although it was stained with some soil, but it was intact as before, and the mood of loss and recovery was overflowing. After a long time, he asked, "Where did you find it?"

"The minions searched all the way back in the future, but fortunately, a guard helped the minions find them, and they found them in the cracks of the flowers." Ziyin said with a slight crimson on his cheeks.

Qing Shi asked suspiciously: "Do you know which guard it is, today Zhu Hai was lost and recovered, and I will have to thank him in the future."

"It's Yan Zhu's guard, the one who often follows the third young master."

Yan Zhu? It is the young master of the Niu Hulu family, Wen Guifei's own brother, in the past, he had seen him a few times with Long Keduo in the Qing Dynasty, and he was quite interesting, Qing Shi inadvertently glanced at Wen Guifei, and said lightly: "His temperament is completely different from Wen Guifei."

After ordering a few more plays, Concubine Wen was really tired of hearing it and said that she had something to do and left in a hurry, Concubine Rong couldn't help but chuckle at Qingyu: "It's embarrassing for her."

After this play, the crowd departed. Zixin walked towards the imperial garden alone, looking up at the sky, the southern geese flew by, leaving no trace.

"Who should I be here, it was the palace maid next to Concubine An, oh~ No, it was Zhang Jia who agreed."

Zixin followed the prestige to be the Guo Guiren who was favored the day before yesterday, and she was independent, Zixin secretly sighed at an uninvited guest, and still stepped forward to salute respectfully.

Guo Guiren glanced at her, didn't call her to get up, and said mockingly: "I don't know what kind of tricks you have used, but you can jump into a promise." ”

Zixin didn't want to fight with Guo Guiren, so he just ignored it, Guo Guiren became more and more proud, and became even more ridiculed: "For your old master, when he knelt down and begged my sister, he didn't look like this, why did he become silent now." Is the goal achieved, so you are very proud of yourself? ”

"The concubine doesn't dare."

Guo Luo Luoqing snorted coldly, she is Concubine Yi's sister, she has bullied Zixin in Yikun Palace in the past, and secretly deducted a lot of things from Yuanhe Palace, and she took almost all the things sent to Concubine An by the Internal Affairs Office, and even Concubine An dared to be angry.

Yikun Palace's lord Concubine Yi ignored it, so Guo Guiren was even more unscrupulous, and ordered the palace people to deduct money and not have enough to eat, which is also a common thing for Zixin. Now that she has agreed to humiliate her like this, Zixin is very unhappy in her heart, but she has no choice but to bite her lips, Guo Guiren saw that her eyes were red and she looked aggrieved, and couldn't help but step forward and pinch her face and said, "Who are you looking like this for?" Then he increased his strength a little, "Concubine, she can't see it." Your Majesty, presumably he wouldn't care about a promise. You may have forgotten about it for a long time. ”

Zixin heard her mention that Concubine An glared at Guo Guiren with some resentment, but Guo Guiren split his head with a palm, and Zixin's fair face quickly turned half red.

"You dare to stare at me? This master will let you understand, what is dignity and humility, what is physique, slave origin, will always be a slave, do you think that flying on the branch is not it? Scold! Zixin looked at her departing figure, she couldn't help but clench her hands, she was determined to make Guo Luo Luoqingru pay the price!

When I was in the Qing Dynasty, I heard that Zixin was humiliated by Guo Guiren in the Imperial Garden, and it was a few days later.

"Don't you just rely on your sister's grace to be a blessing?" Nian Jin said indignantly.

"It's like, what's the big deal." Ziyin echoed, listening to their discussion in the Qing Dynasty, watching Yuxun add incense to the smoker on one side, and did not mix with it.

"Aunt Yuxun, what do you think?"

Yu Xun heard this: "There is no shortage of people in this palace who worship the high and the low, and there will be a day when things will turn around, so we just need to wait." ”

In the past year, I have seen in the Qing Dynasty, Yu Xun is a calm person, and he takes care of Ning Huiyuan in an orderly manner, which is really good, but there is always a kind of uneasiness in the heart of the Qing Dynasty.

This Qiaozixin palace sent someone to invite Qing Shi to go to the Qin'an Temple to pray for blessings.

Qing Shi sat in front of the bronze mirror, called Nian Jin to paint incense for her, Qing Shi Su hand stroked the dragon pattern jade pendant on the rhombic flower platform, as if recalling some old things, suddenly ordered: "You go to find a brocade box to put it away." ”

"Yes." Nian Jin pinned a point of emerald cloud hairpin, adding a bit of elegance in the Qing Dynasty.

Since Zixin agreed to the canonization, Qing Shi has only seen her a few times in Dingxing, and the rest of her contacts are very rare, and she was suddenly invited, and Qing Shi was a little surprised.

Qing Shi was walking on the way to Qin'an Palace, and happened to bump into the oncoming Xuan Ye, this was the first time she saw Xuan Ye after Qing Shi's grounding, she should have been as happy as usual, but her face couldn't show any joy at this moment.

"Concubine to see Your Majesty."

Xuan Ye got up casually and looked at her again: "Ning Dan is not decent, not bad." ”

Qingshi smiled faintly, she had seen a lot during the days of grounding, she should have expected something from Xuan Ye, but now she found out that Xuan Ye had never seen her since she was grounded. He didn't even mention it in front of Qing Yu.

Xuan Ye has always been a high king, and only in front of Qing Yu will he show his side as a husband, and she is just an insignificant one among the three thousand people in the harem.

Xuan Ye saw that her temperament was not normal, and he was a little curious: "But after being grounded for a month, you have become as calm as your sister." ”

"Sister's quiet concubine body can't be learned." Qing Shi said.

Xuan Ye felt bored, so he didn't say much, and walked a few steps forward, and Qing Shi heard the sound of an argument in front of him.

"Why are you so aggressive, you and I are both Your Majesty's concubines, how can you enjoy the scenery in the garden, but I can't?"

Guo Guiren suddenly slapped Zixin in the face: "It seems that the lesson of that day is not enough, but now you have learned to contradict me."

Zixin slapped her at this moment, covered his face and fell to the ground, with a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.

Zixin's eyes were full of tears, and she cried so much that she cried with pear blossoms: "As a nobleman, how can my sister wantonly punish concubines."

"You deserve to call me sister, just a promise!" Guo Guiren was about to raise his hand, when suddenly his arm was grabbed by the waiter. Guo Guiren turned around and saw Xuan Ye and Qing Shi standing not far away, and couldn't help but take a step back, and was so frightened that he knelt down and defended: "Your Majesty, no, the concubine and Zhang Jia agreed to ......" She was interrupted by Xuan Ye before she finished speaking: "Enough, Guo Guiren flouted the palace rules and wantonly punished the palace concubines. ”

Guo Guiren opened his mouth and exclaimed: "Your Majesty, it's not like this! That's not true! Without waiting for her to speak, Xuan Ye motioned for the attendant to drag her away.

Zixin covered her slightly red cheeks, looking even more pitiful, her eyes deliberately dodged, but she was still seen by Xuan Ye. Qing Shi wanted to step forward to help Zi Xin, but Xuan Ye took a step ahead of her, picked up Zi Xin and left, and looked back at Qing Shi's gaze a little deeper.

Zixin lowered the corners of his eyes, snuggled in Xuan Ye's arms and whispered, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid this is not in accordance with the rules."

"The rules are all set by me, you say it's not in line with it?"

Zixin lowered his head and was silent, but heard Xuan Ye ask again, "Which palace do you live in?" ”

"Chuxiu Palace."

"Later, I will send you to the gate of Chuxiu Palace, and you will go back by yourself." Xuan Ye lowered his head, looking at Zixin's cute appearance, he suddenly couldn't bear to let her go back by himself, so he changed his words, "I'll send you back." ”

Qing Shi stood in place, watching them gradually move away, and couldn't help but understand that all this was in Zixin's plan.
