Steward Li's face was full of smiles: "You are polite, when will you get the rest of the silver?" ”

"As soon as you have it, bring it, and Steward Li can rest assured." Luo Shuangyi smiled, no matter who looked at the two of them, they had an excellent relationship.

Without waiting for Manager Li to continue to say anything, Luo Shuangyi took his leave, "The money has been delivered, so I'll leave first." ”

"Okay, remember to send the rest of the money." Steward Li's eyes are all about money, and he doesn't care if Luo Shuangyi stays here or not.

On the way back, Luo Shuangyi wandered the streets because he was in a good mood.

When I was about to arrive at King Luo's Mansion, I saw Xu Yi's personal palace maid.

"Your mother is out of the palace?" Luo Shuangyi asked curiously, but he didn't see Xu Yi nearby.

"Back to Miss, I came to you on the orders of Niangniang, Niangniang especially wants to chat with Miss recently, and I want to invite you into the palace to accompany you." The maid is neither humble nor arrogant.

Luo Shuangyi thought about it, and he didn't have anything important now, so he agreed: "Okay, let's enter the palace together." ”

She turned to look at the little finch, "You rest at home, the injury is not healed, don't run around." ”

"Yes, miss."

Luo Shuangyi followed Xu Yi's personal maid, and soon arrived at the palace, along the way, he only felt that the palace was still as cold as ever, obviously there were so many people living in it, but there were no fireworks.

Walking into the courtyard of Xu Yi's palace, Luo Shuangyi found that Xu Yi was sitting next to Tang Shu when he saluted.

I was surprised in my heart, how could Tang Shu, a foreign man, openly appear in the harem?

"Shuangyi, you're finally here, we haven't seen each other for a long time, sit down." Xu Yi already has the style of a queen, and there is naturally a trace of majesty between her eyebrows, but she is more lazy.

Luo Shuangyi sat in a distant place, and did not talk to Tang Shu, "Recently, the housework has been tedious, so I haven't walked around with my friends." ”

Xu Yi picked up a prescription and put it in the hands of the little palace maid, "Shuangyi take a look, this is the secret recipe for the maintenance of the ancient method sent by Tang Gongzi, Xu is gold is very expensive, and he will send it in person." ”

At this time, Luo Shuangyi knew why Tang Shu could appear in the harem.

The little palace maid handed over the secret recipe to Luo Shuangyi, but Luo Shuangyi did not take it, "Since it is a secret recipe, it is inconvenient for Shuangyi to check it, the queen mother is the mother of the country, and this secret recipe is the most suitable for the queen mother." ”

In fact, she didn't accept it because Xu Yi and Tang Shu had a very close relationship, and in the eyes of outsiders, they had a close relationship, and they also personally sent the secret recipe for beauty.

Luo Shuangyi's words were sour, and Tang Shu and Xu Yi naturally noticed it.

Tang Shu was overjoyed in his heart, and the pride between his eyebrows was about to overflow, "Actually, if Shuangyi needs it, I can sell it to you cheaper." ”

Luo Shuangyi was even more jealous, he gave it to Xu Yi, and wanted to sell it to her. Although she knew that this was due to her identity, she still didn't want to give Tang Shu a good face, "No need, since your secret recipe has been given to the queen mother, it is a palace secret recipe, how can you sell it casually?" ”

Tang Shu raised his eyebrows, he was taught a lesson by this girl?

Xu Yi smiled and eased the current atmosphere, "Shuangyi should try the newly researched pastries in the imperial dining room." ”

Only then did Luo Shuangyi notice a dessert on the table, and the style was made into a potted plant!

Luo Shuangyi was a little surprised, there were a lot of this kind of imitation desserts in later generations, but she didn't expect it to be available now, she picked up a small plum blossom potted style and put it in her mouth.

Sweet and silky, most of the whole dessert is made of sugar, and Xu Yi and Tang Shu also picked up a piece and tasted it separately.

"It's a nice pastry." Although most of them are made of sugar, they are not greasy, they do not have a strange taste, and they are very sweet.

Xu Yi smiled lightly: "It's good if Shuangyi likes it." ”

Tang Shu didn't feel anything about this, but followed what Xu Yi said: "Yes, Shuangyi is good if you like it." ”

Luo Shuangyi's cheeks flushed slightly when he heard his words, "Why are you learning to speak with the queen mother." ”

"What are you talking about here so happy?"

The emperor's voice suddenly sounded, and several people got up one after another, and sure enough, they saw that the emperor was not far from them, "See the emperor, long live my emperor......"

"Hey, don't be polite." The emperor helped them a little.

When the emperor saw Tang Shu, he seemed to be very happy, "Why didn't you send someone to inform me in advance when you entered the palace, if it wasn't for my people who saw you and told me, I wouldn't have known." ”

Luo Shuangyi looked at the emperor's blazing gaze, and was a little puzzled, why was the emperor so happy to see Tang Shu? Because Tang Shu is rich and is a personal treasury?

"Your Majesty, Shuangyi and I will go to the Imperial Garden for a walk, and you and Tang Gongzi will have a slow chat." Xu Yi obviously knew more than Luo Shuangyi, and directly proposed to leave first.

And the emperor just nodded calmly and agreed.

Luo Shuangyi could only suppress the doubts in his heart and leave with Xu Yi.

The road is full of leafy green plants, and you can hear the cry of birds from time to time, Xu Yi chatted with Luo Shuangyi while walking: "There are a lot of exotic flowers and plants in the palace, and some are poisonous, but these flowers are good-looking, and no one dares to pick them, but no one is poisoned because of these flowers." ”

"In this case, you still need to be careful, if someone knows that something is poisonous and uses it to harm people, it will not be good." Luo Shuangyi suddenly saw a piece of rhododendron, including many poisonous species such as yellow rhododendron, Luo Shuangyi felt that this poisonous plant was not very wise to raise in a crowded place, if it was just for good looks, nothing else could not be replaced.

"There are too few things I can call the shots in the palace." Xu Yi looked a little distressed, and then asked as if unintentionally: "I think Tang Gongzi likes Shuangyi quite much." ”

Luo Shuangyi's face blushed slightly: "It's nothing." ”

A hint of darkness crossed Xu Yi's eyes, and the absent-minded Luo Shuangyi didn't see it, "How much do Shuangyi and Tang Gongzi usually come into contact with?" Don't you know him? ”

"I don't have much contact, and I don't know him very well." Luo Shuangyi didn't like to tell Xu Yi about this, although Xu Yi gave her a good feeling, but they didn't know each other very well, so they didn't really want to share this kind of private thing.

Xu Yi keenly noticed that Luo Shuangyi's tone was a little reluctant, and changed the topic knowingly: "I'll take Shuangyi to a good place to enjoy the flowers." ”

"Okay." Luo Shuangyi followed behind Xu Yi honestly.

Walking through patches of flowers and various woods, Xu Yi took Luo Shuangyi to a small pavilion.

"Look." Xu Yi stood in the pavilion, facing the flowers in the Imperial Garden.

Luo Shuangyi stood a little behind her and found that this is indeed a very good place to enjoy flowers, with a wide field of vision, different flowers all around, and a rich fragrance lingering around, perhaps it has been specially designed, even if the taste of a variety of flowers is mixed together, it will not make people feel unpleasant.

When you close your eyes, you will feel relaxed and feel as if you are in a sea of flowers.

Luo Shuangyi found that in a pile of flowers, there were some very weak flowers, and the stems were also very thin, clinging to other plants tightly, and it seemed that they could be destroyed casually.

But Luo Shuangyi knew that this was just an appearance.

Xu Yi saw that Luo Shuangyi had been staring at one place, and it was impossible for the two of them to keep not communicating with each other about looking at their own flowers, when she asked people to invite Luo Shuangyi into the palace, she said that she was bored and asked Luo Shuangyi to enter the palace to chat with her.

So Xu Yi pretended to be a little curious and walked over and asked, "What is Shuangyi looking at?" ”

Luo Shuangyi pointed to the flowers, "You see that flower is very weak from time to time, and it can't survive if you don't attach to other plants." ”

"So, it's really weak." Xu Yi didn't think much about it.

"But this kind of thing is called the silk flower, it attaches to other plants to keep itself alive, but it will eat away at the plants it is attached to little by little, and eventually the plants it was originally attached to were killed by it." Luo Shuangyi simply talked about the characteristics of this plant, and he was a little embarrassed.

As a result, these words fell into Xu Yi's ears, and it was not quite the same, her expression changed, and she pretended that nothing had happened, "I see, come here, pull out this flower, so that other plants will not be poisoned." ”

She looked at Luo Shuangyi, "Let's go for a walk elsewhere, shall we?" ”

"Okay, Queen Mother, please." Luo Shuangyi, like just now, followed behind Xu Yi, and didn't walk long before he saw a group of people in front of him.

Luo Shuangyi was a little surprised to see that it was the Queen Mother, after all, the road they are taking now is relatively partial, and they don't even see a figure on the road, because the palace people will only take the most convenient road, and there are few people on this road because it is inconvenient and there are too few places to lead.

"See the Queen Mother." Xu Yi and Luo Shuangyi saluted together, and the palace maids and grandmothers also knelt on the ground.

The Queen Mother changed her mean appearance in the past, and looked at Luo Shuangyi with a smile, "Shuangyi didn't know when she entered the palace today, it was fate to meet, Shuangyi chatted with me, an old woman?" ”

Luo Shuangyi was surprised in her heart, she couldn't see a trace of mistake on her face, and she also smiled, "The Queen Mother doesn't dislike the people's daughters, and the people's daughters should accompany each other." ”

"I haven't seen you for a long time, so it's better for you to stay in the palace and stay with me for two more days." The Queen Mother continued to make demands, which made Luo Shuangyi feel that something was wrong.

So she tried to refuse: "The Queen Mother doesn't know, my mother is pregnant, and she is a little older, I am very worried about my mother's safety, and I must see her from time to time, so I can rest assured, so what the Queen Mother just said, forgive the people can not agree." ”

When she finished saying this, Luo Shuangyi had almost thought of what the situation of the Queen Mother was, and the Queen Mother must have a purpose for letting her stay, otherwise she would not be uncharacteristically good.

So now that he has rejected the Queen Mother's proposal, the Queen Mother should be very angry and punish her, right?

However, she was more afraid of unknown dangers than punishment, so she had to refuse the Queen Mother's proposal.

Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother was not angry, but asked about Concubine Liu's situation with concern, "It is indeed a bit dangerous to be pregnant with a child at her age, I don't know if she is uncomfortable now?" ”
