Chapter Seventy-One: A New Crisis
According to the method taught by Zimei in advance, Fan Li came to the door in the northwest corner of the cemetery and called softly three times: "Zimei, Zimei, Zimei!" ”
Then, he opened the small door and walked out. Before, Fan Li had gone out from here. Outside is a hill overgrown with pine trees
Beyond the hill, there is a large area of houses, which is the quietest place in the capital. Could it be that after three calls, Zimei will be waiting for him outside?
Fan Li walked out of the small door. Finding that the hill was gone, he had entered a delicate courtyard, the yard was not big, but the rockery potted plants in the house were elegantly set up and quite ingenious.
What is this place? Fan Li's heart was a little vague and in a trance. Walking around, suddenly a strange fragrance came to her nose, Zimei had already appeared in front of her, and bowed down gracefully: "Concubine Zimei has worshiped Fan Jun!" ”
Fan Li hurriedly hugged Zimei and said, "Zimei is exempt." ”
Zi Mei smiled, took Fan Li's hand, and walked towards the main room.
Fan Li has a feeling of being in a fairyland. Zimei smiled slightly: "Fan Jun, please take a seat!" "Showing white teeth.
Fan Li looked at her big, dark eyes, cherry-colored lips, and soft and slender figure, and couldn't help but think, this girl is so good-looking.
Zimei whispered: "Fan Jun! Make an appointment with Zimei for any instructions. ”
Fan Li stabilized his mind: "Little sister, let's get down to business." ”
Zimei floated away like a white cloud, pouring a cup of fragrant tea: "Fan Jun, drink saliva and talk slowly." ”
Fan Li said: "Xi Shi Zheng Dan has just entered the Wu Palace, and his foothold is not stable. Wu Zixu encouraged the queen to hook up, causing her jealousy and hatred, if she made things difficult for Xi Shi Zheng Dan everywhere, Xi Shi Zheng Dan's situation would be difficult. He told Wu Zixu about the meeting with Mrs. Ditch. Then he said: "We sent Xi Shi Zheng Dan into the Wu Palace to confuse the King of Wu, so that the King of Wu was neglected in state affairs, abandoned the government and hindered the development of the Wu Kingdom." This is an important part of our recovery plan. If Xi Shi Zheng Dan is in a difficult situation, it will be difficult for them to play a role. ”
Zimei lowered her head and muttered for a long time, and said, "Fan Jun, if the queen Gou Yu makes trouble to Xi Shi, things will be very difficult to do." The matter is obvious, King Wu favors Xi Shi Zheng Dan, and after a long time, even if there is no Wu Zixu to provoke, Mrs. Gou Yu will also have resentment. Wu Zixu's provocation only accelerated the outbreak of this resentment. This creates a crisis. With Zimei's ability, she can only give Xi Shi Zheng Dan limited protection, and if you want to solve the problem completely, you still have to start by eliminating Gou's resentment. ”
Fan Li said: "This idea is right, but how can we eliminate the resentment of Gouyu?" ”
Zimei said: "Gou Yu is still the queen, she has lost nothing, and his loneliness is because of loneliness." Without loneliness, there is no resentment. Relieve his loneliness, only by relieving her loneliness can the problem be fundamentally solved. ”
Fan Li said: "This is a problem, where can we go to find someone for him who can relieve her loneliness?" ”
Zimei said, "Yes." It's a rare thing. But this crisis will not be eliminated without solving the problem at the source"
Fan Li sighed and said, "It's difficult for a good woman to cook without rice." ”
Zimei thought for a while and said, "Fan Jun, you must come to the palace and act at the opportunity." Zimei will help you. ”
Fan Li said: "I think so too, but how can I enter the Wu Palace? ”
Zimei said: "Fan Jun hurried to find a way, Zimei could only provide some protection to Xi Shi Zheng Dan for a while." After a long time, it won't work. ”
Fan Li said: "You can come up with a way to ease Gou Yu's resentment now,"
Zimei said: "That can only push King Wu to Gouyu, but King Wu has become obsessed with Xi Shi Zheng Dan, and it is difficult for him to go to Zhengyang Palace, even if he goes, it is an occasional thing, and it can't solve the problem." ”
Fan Li said: "Emergency first. Hurry up. ”
Zimei said: "You should also hurry up and find a way." ”
..............
King Wu had a happy day. On this day, he successfully teased Xi Shi Zheng Dan to laugh happily, and Xi Shi trembled with laughter, like flowers in the rain. King Wu's heart was drunk.
It was late, everyone had dinner, and had fun for a while, and King Wu couldn't wait to hug Xi Shi and walk towards Chaoyang Palace.
Luo Jiang carried the lantern and led the way in front.
Originally, Xi Shi's maid was Zimei, but tonight Zimei suddenly didn't know what the reason was, and she wanted to change shifts with Luo Jiang. It was supposed to be indifferent, but I didn't want to change the shift to a story.
There were two chamberlains at the gate of the palace, and when they saw them coming, they lowered their heads to look at the ground, entered the palace gate, walked along the Yongdao, passed through a small bamboo forest, and went on the arch bridge. As soon as Luo Jiang raised her head and glanced at the waiter, and the waiter was also secretly looking at her, Luo Jiang didn't feel moved.
This chamberlain is less than twenty years old, tall and tall, with fair skin, clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, very attractive.
The chamberlains are all eunuchs. They are the most pitiful group of people. Because of this, the women in the palace do not shy away from them, because in addition to the guards, there are also some things in the palace that require strength. They are the same as the palace maids. It is possible to enter and exit the concubine's bedroom.
Luo Jiang, with her feminine sensitivity, found that this waiter looked at her with a special eye. It's not the dull gaze of an ordinary chamberlain, but a glimmer of spark in his eyes.
This feeling flashed in his mind, and when he entered the door, Luo Jiang forgot about it.
Entering the bedroom, Luo Jiang quickly packed up the bed and poured hot tea into a warm pot wrapped in cotton for King Wu to drink at night. and quietly withdrew.
King Wu found that something was wrong with Xi Shi.
Xi Shi frowned slightly, thoughtfully, and did not give King Wu a warm response as usual. just passively dealt with King Wu, and seemed a little cold.
King Wu said, "Qing, are you like this? Seems a little unhappy? ”
Xi Shi smiled: "King, it's nothing. ”
This smile made King Wu a little panicked. He said to Xi Shi: "Qing, do you hate widows? ”
Xi Shi hurriedly saluted: "King, Xi Shi is favored by the king, and he is very grateful. But ......"
King Wu said, "But what? ”
Xi Shi smiled: "It's nothing. ”
King Wu was a little anxious: "Qing, you speak, don't babble, if you have anything to say, just say it." ”
Xi Shi said: "King, you are the king of everyone, not the king of the concubine alone, if you put your mind on the concubine alone, the concubine will become the object of everyone's resentment." When everyone resents the concubine, the concubine's life is not easy. ”
King Wu said, "Who dares to get along with you?" Say, "The widow will go and clean him up." ”
Xi Shi shook his head and said, "That's useless, people will bury their resentment in their hearts." If the king is really kind to his concubines, you must make his concubines happy. ”
King Wu said, "What can the widow do to make you happy? ”
Xi Shi said: "If the king wants his concubines to be happy, you can go to Mrs. Gou Yu of Zhengyang Palace tonight." ”
