Liu Mengyan heard the sound of everyone talking, but smiled indifferently, saying that this palace is the best place in the world. But only she knows that this sinking palace, countless glorious palaces, the bucket arches and cornices, and the spine of the Liuyan beast.

It's like a giant cage that traps you in it.

and the never-ending battle, all of which made this heavy palace full of bloody rain.

How many young women, after coming in, were tortured and destroyed by the fragrance jade, and there are people here, and they won't even vomit the bone slag!

When she saw this, she remembered the misery of her previous life, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of disgust in her heart.

Soon, the chamberlain took everyone to a small courtyard called "Fish Pavilion", so that everyone could rest here for a while, and before the banquet began, someone would come and bring everyone to the table.

Everyone is also happy, this view of the fish pavilion is decorated with joy, but there is really a New Year's atmosphere.

Liu Mengyan and Liu Ruoyu randomly found a small pavilion and sat down.

Liu Ruoyu was still a little sullen, thinking that she was still worried about this banquet.

Liu Mengyan said: "Second sister is worried about this banquet? ”

When Liu Ruoyu heard her words, she came back to her senses, but her brows were still unfolded, she sighed and nodded.

She now only has Chen Gongzi in her heart, and she can no longer pretend to be the person next to her, if she is really chosen by any prince at this banquet, she is afraid that she will not obey to death.

"Second sister, why should you worry, in fact, if you want to be yellow, it's very simple." Liu Mengyan looked at her with a smile and said.

"How?" Liu Ruoyu hurriedly asked.

I saw Liu Mengyan smile mysteriously, looked at Si Tuoba, and then leaned into Liu Ruoyu's ear and whispered: "If the second sister doesn't want to be chosen by His Royal Highness the Third Prince, then she just needs to make Concubine Xuan dislike you." In this way, even if you want to be selected by His Royal Highness the Third Prince, this Concubine Xuan is afraid that she will not agree. ”

She knows this third prince, his strong and domineering, it is all for outsiders to see. In fact, he is a giant baby, and everything is up to Concubine Xuan.

"However, how to arouse Concubine Xuan's dislike?" Liu Ruoyu asked again.

"This is very simple, as long as you pretend to be dull, this Concubine Xuan is the one who doesn't like dull people the most. The three princes listened to Concubine Xuan's mother in everything. Liu Mengyan said very confidently.

If it was to talk about it, she would have to think about it carefully, but when it came to the temperament of the people in the royal family, she knew it best.

In the previous life, in order to help Tuoba Yeze hide from her heirs, she knew the opponent's temper and habits very clearly.

Liu Ruoyu nodded thoughtfully, in short, as long as she didn't marry a few princes, she could do whatever she wanted.

On one side, in the Bixiao Palace, in front of a huge bronze mirror, Concubine Xuan, who had a moth head and eyebrows, was standing in front of the bronze mirror admiring her appearance.

Although she is almost at the age of no doubt, she still does not look old, but compared with the youth when she first entered the palace, she now has a little more mature and charming charm.

The delicate skin is as white as warm jade, and a pair of water-like eyes are slightly hooked, and they are charming and charming.

The maid Yuping and the jade pot on the side were holding Concubine Xuan's gorgeous clothes attending the banquet this time and showing them to Concubine Xuan.

This costume is very exquisitely made, and the orange-red brocade robe is covered with an open peacock, which shines in the light and looks very good.

"Niangniang, the peacock on this dress is embroidered with gold thread, symbolizing Niangniang's noble status and deep favor by the emperor." Yuping said flatteringly while showing off her clothes.

Obviously, Concubine Xuan was very useful by these words, and a smug smile appeared on her face, "Okay, let's get dressed." After speaking, she stretched out her arms and asked Yuping and Yuju to dress her.

Just as he was putting on his clothes, the maid at the door came in and reported, "Niangniang, the third prince has arrived." ”

Concubine Xuan immediately turned around and looked at the door, only to see that the third prince was dressed in a smoky yellow robe embroidered with a six-clawed dragon, and a belt inlaid with mutton fat and white jade was tied around his waist. The knife-like facial features are deep and three-dimensional, and there is a bit of grandeur.

He walked in quickly, walked up to Concubine Xuan, and saluted slightly, "My son greets my mother." ”

Concubine Xuan immediately helped him up.

Seeing her son becoming more and more handsome, her mouth flashed with pride and pride: "Hurry up." It's been a long time since I've seen the emperor in this palace. ”

The third prince smiled: "The emperor will definitely come to the palace often to see his mother." ”

"Alright. I've heard a lot of what you've said. Since leaving the palace to build a mansion, the emperor is considered free. Where do you remember my mother? Concubine Xuan scolded him, but her eyes were full of spoiling.

"Mother, recently, my son has been busy with the affairs of the court, and then the matter of choosing a side concubine, and he neglected his mother for a while. Don't be angry with your son. The third prince coaxed.

"Then how did you choose your side concubine?" Concubine Xuan asked.

"It's up to the mother to decide." The third prince said.

Concubine Xuan was a lot more satisfied in her heart, but she still asked a few words, "The position of this side concubine is not high, but it is not low." First of all, you should have a good family background, so that it can be a help for you. The second is appearance and conduct, do you have a suitable candidate in your heart? ”

The third prince nodded and said, "Mother, my son has three candidates in mind, and I will listen to my mother, and let my mother consult for her son." ”

Concubine Xuan took his hand, sat on the soft couch, and nodded, "Come to the palace to listen." ”

"One is Liu Ruoyu, the daughter of the second room of Liufu. This second room of the Liufu Liu Second Master was originally the imperial history of the cabinet Zuodu, and he was also the prince and the prince, such a person can help his sons and daughters a lot, and that Liu Ruoyu is lovely, smart and clever, the mother concubine will definitely like it. "The three princes are here.

Concubine Xuan nodded thoughtfully, a little satisfied, and then said, "What else?" ”

The third prince continued: "There are two more, one is the daughter of the Xiao family, the Xiao family was born as a generation of military generals, and now there are two generals, this identity and status are difficult to shake. ”

"There is also a daughter who is the secretary of the three-room household department of the ten thousand families, and the position of the secretary of the household department is also unobtainable to ordinary people, and it will be much more convenient to do things in the future."

Concubine Xuan nodded with satisfaction after hearing this.

"When the time comes, I will have to ask my mother to take a closer look at it for my son." The third prince said again.

Concubine Xuan nodded in response.

In the Weiyang Palace.

Chen Guifei is also dressed in gorgeous clothes.

She was the first person to serve the emperor, and compared to Concubine Xuan's charm, she is now a little old.

Although her face is not there, the emperor still has a little respect for her. First, it is because after all, she has served the emperor for so many years, and she has no merit and hard work. The second is because she is the emperor's cousin and the niece of the Empress Dowager Chen, which is also the main reason.

At this moment, she was sitting on the soft couch with a huff, she should have been happy today, but it was this prince who didn't let her worry about it, and she had such an endless mind.

"Tell me about you, don't you know what day today you did such a thing? If it reaches the ears of your father, see what you do! She said to the prince with hatred.

The crown prince stood aside, bowing his head and not daring to move, listening to Chen Guifei's reprimand.

When he heard his father, he immediately raised his head and pounced on Chen Guifei to beg for mercy, "Mother, it was those two palace maids who seduced the son-in-law, and the son-in-law ...... The mother concubine must not tell her father about this. ”

Although he was afraid of his mother, he was even more afraid of his father, because as the crown prince, he was always inferior to other princes, and he always made his father unhappy.

Chen Guifei snorted angrily, "Come on, boil two bowls of avoidance soup and pour them into the two palace maids, and think of a way to make them unable to talk about this matter." ”

When she said this, there was a faint expression in her eyes, as if she was just doing a small thing.

The grandmother next to her answered and went out.

This matter has been resolved, but the anger in Chen Guifei's heart has not subsided, "You, you only know how to spend all day drinking, so unenterprising, your father has a lot of opinions about you, and he still doesn't know how to correct it, what can I do with you?" ”

The prince hung his head and listened to her reprimand, but in fact, his left ear went in and out of his right ear.

In fact, in his eyes, they were just two little palace maids, and they were not worth his trouble at all.

He just saw that the two palace maids looked good, so he spoiled them, but he didn't want to make such a big noise.

Chen Guifei said for a while, only to feel that her mouth was dry, picked up the teacup on the table, and drank two sips, and the anger in her heart gradually stopped.

"Okay, this Spring Festival meeting, do you have a candidate for a side concubine in your heart?" She asked, looking away.

The prince hurriedly shook his head, "Everything is up to the concubine, and if the concubine says it's good, that's good." ”

After listening to his words, Chen Guifei couldn't help but sigh: This prince is too soft, and he has no opinions of his own. It's extremely, it's really a dou who can't afford it!

But even if Chen Guifei didn't look down on the prince, she could only support him as usual. After all, she only has such a son, who else can she count on if she doesn't expect him?

"This side concubine is not as good as the concubine, and it is no problem for the concubine to accept a few, as long as you like it. But this side concubine must have a good family background and help your position as the crown prince. She lowered her voice, hoping he would take her toes.

The crown prince nodded, "Mother, the son understands that this matter is all up to the mother." Does the concubine have the right person in mind? ”

Chen Guifei said: "The mother concubine will pay attention to it for you, the concubine of the right governor of the cabinet is not bad, followed by the concubine of the second room of Liufu and the concubine of the Wanjia." These are all good, and I believe that it will be beneficial to your position as the crown prince. ”

After hearing this, the prince also nodded with great satisfaction, "The choice of the mother concubine must be good, and the sons and daughters all listen to the mother concubine." ”

Chen Guifei nodded with satisfaction.
