Chapter 18: Difficulty
Yu Yan was recuperating in the Shizi Mansion, and with the protection of the Liang Dynasty, it was smooth for a while, while Xian Ge faced the first crisis in the palace.
On this day, Du Guifei invited Huang Shufei to visit the Imperial Garden together, saying that it was spring and flowers, and she wanted to taste the taste of spring.
Du Guifei looked at the spring in the garden, pretended to be frustrated, and sighed: "It is said that flowers are easy to wither, and now that spring is in full bloom, I am afraid that one plant is declining and one is blooming." ”
"My sister is so captivating, how can she sigh so much." Huang Shufei asked hypocritically.
"Sister, don't you know that the emperor has a new talent, although it is a positive five products, but now, not only live in the Dust Pavilion, but also exempt from the palaces to ask for peace, and we are not allowed to visit, it is really incredible."
Concubine Huang Shu was a little disdainful in her heart, "Sister, don't worry, but she is just a talented person, she lives so partially, and the emperor has never stayed overnight." ”
"My sister knows, the Dust Pavilion was built by the emperor and his beloved, and now the Ming Cai people live in it, this honor, looking at the entire harem, I can't find a second person, besides, I didn't stay overnight, I don't know if the emperor cherishes her." Du Guifei secretly paid attention to Concubine Shu's expression.
Concubine Huang Shu was puzzled, "What did my sister say this, wasn't it built by the emperor to remind himself that he was a Ming monarch in order not to make his heart fall into the dust?"
Du Guifei held a silk scarf inlaid with gold threads, covered her mouth, and sneered, "Sister, you are so stupid, you are like this in the open, but in secret......"
"Secretly?" Huang Shufei had some questions.
Du Guifei pretended to wipe away her tears, "Once the emperor was drunk, saying that he saw a fairy falling into the dust in a dream, and he sent someone to build the dust pavilion in a few days." ”
Huang Shufei twisted the silk handkerchief in her hand, with a somewhat angry look on her face.
Seeing Concubine Shu's demeanor, a subtle smile rose at the corner of Du Guifei's mouth, and motioned to the palace maid to step forward, "Sister, sister, it's an old man, and her spirit is not good, so she wants to go back to the palace." ”
Sending Du Guifei away, Huang Shufei stomped her feet angrily, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was not a taste, so she went straight to the Dust Pavilion.
In the Dust Pavilion, Huang Shufei's maidservants lined up, blocking the string song and Caiwen in the inner room.
"Mingcai, as a concubine in this palace, above you, why have I never seen you come to this palace to ask for peace?" Huang Shufei sat on the top and looked at Xian Ge with a sharp look.
Xian Ge was about to speak, but Cai Wen hurriedly said: "Yu Niangniang, it was ordered by the emperor to allow Mingcai people not to go to the palaces to ask for peace." ”
"Presumptuous!" Concubine Huang Shufei slapped the table and said sharply, "This palace is asking about a talented person, a little maidservant, how can you open your mouth, come here, give me a palm." ”
The maid next to her heard Concubine Huang Shu's words, stepped forward and slapped Caiwen, and after two slaps, the maid stepped aside, and Caiwen's face quickly turned red.
Xian Ge hurriedly knelt down, "Niang Niang forgives her sins, Caiwen has no intention of offending, Xian Ge is not well, she is still sick, I am afraid that I will go to the palaces to invite An Chong to bump into the girls, and the emperor will allow this matter, but I actually care about all the mothers." ”
Huang Shufei looked at the string song kneeling at the bottom, and she was angry, if she didn't get rid of it as soon as possible, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Since this is the case, then the Mingcai people will kneel outside this dust pavilion every day and bow to the palaces."
Xian Ge bowed his head respectfully and said, "Yes, Niangniang." ”
Concubine Huang Shu smiled contemptuously, "That's good, the rules of the palace, if people don't understand it in the future, the palace will teach them one by one." ”
After finishing speaking, Concubine Huang Shu was supported by the maidservant and returned to the palace.
Xian Ge knelt in a daze, and had no intention of getting up, she understood that this was just a small difficulty, and in the days to come, I am afraid she would have to be more careful.
Seeing this, Caiwen hurriedly picked up the string song, and said hatefully: "Master, get up quickly, the slave and maid will tell the emperor to go up." ”
"Today's matter, don't make a big deal."
Xian Ge was a little exhausted, retreated from Caiwen, returned to the inner room by herself, and began to take a nap, she felt that today's events were a little strange, why did Huang Shufei suddenly come to make things difficult for herself, and Caiwen, what she did just now was not at all like a woman who had been in the palace for many years.
All kinds of doubts struck, making Xian Ge a little sleepy, and he fell asleep.
Gu Chi was handling official business in the study, and an inner supervisor stepped forward and whispered in Gu Chi's ear.
After the inner supervisor finished speaking, he stepped aside, and Gu Chi had a smile of unknown meaning on his lips.
It seems that Xian Ge still can't fully trust him, otherwise, how can he let Huang Shufei make things difficult.
"Go, send the purple jade grapes that Di Yi paid tribute to the Dust Pavilion." Gu Chi threw the wolf pen in his hand on the case, and a few drops of ink were thrown onto the table, which was very conspicuous.
"Yes." The inner supervisor was about to retreat, and Gu Chi said again: "Send that moonlight brocade to Du Guifei again." ”
Gu Chi knew in his heart that sometimes, what he was inconvenient to do, someone in the harem would naturally do it, he pinched his eyebrows, a little upset, where is that painting.
The inner supervisor sent the purple jade grapes to the Dust Pavilion and woke up the string song.
Xian Ge was sleepy-eyed and a little confused, Gu Chi gave something for nothing, didn't he think he was troublesome enough.
"Master, the emperor is really good to you, this purple jade grape, the slave has only heard of it, and today is the first time I have seen it." Caiwen was excited.
Xian Ge had a headache and knocked lightly on the door of his head, "What's so strange about this, it's just a jade carving." ”
Cai Wen smacked his tongue, "This purple jade grape is not only beautiful, but also has a strange fragrance." ”
"It's quite strange, let's find a box and put it away." Xian Ge glanced at the jade carving, and there was not much turbulence in his eyes.
Cai Wen pursed his lips and gently stroked the jade carving with his index finger, "Master, why are you putting away such a good thing, how beautiful it is in the lobby." ”
Xian Ge glanced at Caiwen, and there was more inquiry in his eyes, "Do it." ”
"Yes." Caiwen carefully held the purple jade grapes, found a box, and put it up.
Xian Ge looked at Caiwen's back, and became more and more suspicious, Huang Shufei only came to make trouble in the morning, and Gu Chi sent something in the afternoon, there is really no secret in this Dust Pavilion.
After dinner, Xian Ge took a walk in the garden, and Gu Chi came in plain clothes.
Xian Ge hurriedly saluted, "The emperor is safe." ”
"Get up." Gu Chi saw that there was no joy on Xiange's face, and said again: "I still like the purple jade grapes I gave you." ”
"I like it." The string song is faint.
Gu Chi looked at Xian Ge, "Oh, why is that such a look." ”
Xian Ge squeezed out a smile, "I'm scared." ”
"Afraid of what?"
"I'm afraid your concubine will eat me."
Gu Chi laughed, "Aren't you my concubine?"
The string song was deflated and no longer spoke.
"Okay, I've heard about today's incident, don't worry, no one will come to trouble you in the future." Gu Chi said seriously.
Xian Ge sighed, "It's hard. ”
Gu Chi wanted to open his mouth to promise, but was interrupted by Xian Ge, "The killer's matter, has there been any new progress?"
"Not yet, but there will be progress." Gu Chi hurriedly changed the topic, "I heard Caiwen say, you can paint in your spare time, why don't you see your paintings?"
"If you paint it at random, if it is not satisfactory, it will be ruined." Xian Ge didn't want to expose his private affairs too much in front of Gu Chi.
"Oh, is there anything you like?" Gu Chi tentatively.
"The paintings are all the same, I can't talk about likes and dislikes." Xian Ge replied lightly.
Gu Chi was a little lost, and after a while, there was a smile on his face again, "Really?"
"Don't dare to deceive the emperor." The string song replied respectfully.
"I wish you could be deceived." Gu Chi looked at Xian Ge, his eyes were a little hot.
"The emperor laughed, who in the world dares to deceive you." Xian Ge avoided Gu Chi's eyes and looked into the distance, Gu Chi tonight seemed to be a little different.
Gu Chi sighed to himself, "You should rest early." With that, he went to Du Guifei's place.
After Gu Chi left, Xian Ge lost his mind for a while, and now Gu Chi, she is becoming more and more scared, not because of his identity, but because of his unconcealable gaze, but after thinking about it, she has already ordered Caiwen not to be publicized, but Gu Chi still knows, it seems that in the future, Caiwen will be left everywhere.
