Inside the Cining Palace.

"The concubine has seen the Queen Mother, and I wish the Queen Mother a long life and good health, and a long and happy life." Yuan Ge was dressed in a light blue vibrating waist support skirt, the water-colored jasmine was faintly full of sleeves, three thousand green silk rolled up a loose cloud bun, casually wearing a painted silver belt, the waist was loosely tied with ink-colored Gong Di, obliquely inserted a simple flying butterfly with silver flowers Huasheng, the light-colored tassels fell at will, a trace of ripples in the wind, the eyebrows were still a little cinnabar, the graceful posture was graceful, the etiquette was exactly the same, and the attitude was humble.

Seeing Mama Zhang standing beside the Queen Mother in a kneeling position, serving the high Queen Mother to rinse her mouth, Yuan Ge got up after the salute and came to Mama Zhang's side, taking her place.

"You are also a concubine under one person, and you have been in the palace for a long time, and you are also the mother of the eldest princess, what are you doing with such a big ceremony? I still do this kind of shitty work. The Queen Mother looked at Yuan Ge, who had a humble attitude under her, and there was a somewhat satisfied smile on her lips.

"It is within the duty of the concubine to greet the queen mother, and it is also the duty of the concubine to serve the queen mother. Yuan Ge's eyebrows were full of respect and humility, and the actions of serving the Queen Mother became more and more clever.

"It's also rare for your child to have filial piety." The queen is gentle, not as malicious as before, and the panic that Yuan Ge has suppressed in his heart for a long time instantly calmed down, and the whole person became more relaxed.

"The concubines have today's wealth and dignity because of the grace of the Queen Mother, Yuan Ge never dared to forget, the Queen Mother had something to do, even if she told Yuan Ge to do so." Yuan Ge finished gargling the Queen Mother, and then came behind the Queen Mother, gently massaging the Queen Mother's shoulder with just the right amount of force.

"Oh? Anything goes? The Queen Mother had a slight smile on the corner of her mouth, but she didn't speak, she looked at all this quietly, with the appearance of power, although her tone was a rhetorical question, but she didn't leave Yuan Ge the slightest refusal.

"As long as Yuan Ge can do it, I will listen to the instructions of the Queen Mother." Yuan Ge said.

"Thinking that Jin'an and Shuo'an are more than five years old, but the emperor is reluctant to canonize the Ruan family of Zichen Palace, which has caused a lot of discussion inside and outside the court, Mrs. Ruan comes to this Cining Palace every day to cry, it can be said that she washes her face with tears, as the emperor's favorite concubine, you should always urge the emperor to do your duty as a concubine." The Queen Mother's golden armor was slightly curled, and she reached out to stroke the hair on her sideburns.

"What the Queen Mother said is very true, and the concubines also think that the second princess's biological mother, Ruan, should be canonized as soon as possible and enter the harem." The Queen Mother obviously didn't expect Yuan Ge to react like this, her face was stunned for a moment, and the words that had been planned in her mind for a long time did not have a chance to speak.

Yuan Ge saw the Queen Mother like this, and smiled even more, and became more and more comfortable serving.

At noon, in the middle of the imperial garden.

"Niangniang, how can you make such a big event as the queen mother, the lord of the country has not been canonized by the Ruan family for a long time, and it is clear that he does not want to see her, why do you bother to gamble on your honor and dignity for that woman, the slave and maid look at this is really not worth it!" Xiao Tao, who watched things carefully, accompanied Yuan Ge by his side, looked at Yuan Ge worriedly, and couldn't help but speak.

Yuan Ge only smiled faintly, glanced at Xiao Tao, and continued to lower his head and stroke the qin. I saw Yuan Ge wearing a white mopping smoke cage plum blossom baishui skirt, covered with moon satin embroidered magnolia flying butterfly clothes, lined with pale pink brocade wrap chest, cuffs embroidered with delicate gold butterflies, a few lace lace hooked on the chest placket, a thin layer of silk yarn like a mist cage, and a gold belt tied around the waist, which was luxurious and slender.

Qi is like a quiet orchid, there is a golden silk Tongling jade lying quietly in front of the neck, adding a light and elegant atmosphere, a pair of silver butterfly earrings are hanging next to the ear, holding the black hair with a silver hairpin, coiled into a delicate willow hairpin, and then pinching a magnolia pin, which looks fresh and beautiful and elegant.

At this moment, Yuan Ge seems to be completely immersed in his own world, his eyebrows are light, his cherry lips are undyed and red, and his whole body exudes the sweet aroma of bluegrass, which is delicate and charming. exudes the atmosphere of aristocracy, beauty does not eat the fireworks of the world, and the beauty is in time. Like a fairy who has stepped into the mortal world, waving the jade-faced Luo fan in his hand, elegant and temperamental.

"Niangniang is really a good piano skill, I can't complain that when the lord of the country came to Yiluan Pavilion last night, he praised Niangniang's good piano skills again and again, and my sister is really fortunate to have such a blessing today." I don't know when, Xiao Yuxiao's figure came fluttering.

"My sister is really humble, when it comes to this piano skill, if you are second, who dares to call it the first in the world. My sister said this, but I was ashamed of my sister. Yuan Ge instantly picked up the words of the beauty in front of him, and did not forget to get up, take the beauty's hand, and take her into his side and sit down.

"Today, my sister's piano happened to enter my sister's ear, so let my sister listen to my sister's piano, and I don't know if my piano fits my sister's hand." Yuan Ge Yingying got up, smiled slightly, stepped aside, and left the center to Xiao Yuxiao.

Xiao Yuxiao didn't shirk, gently plucked the strings with his hands, and instantly a pleasant sound came out, Xiao Yuxiao instantly laughed between his eyebrows, and said: "Niangniang's piano is really excellent, and it is the first time for the concubine to see such a good string after entering the palace for so long." ”

After that, seeing Xiao Yuxiao sitting on the ground, a head like a waterfall and green silk scattered aside, she stretched out her hand, ten fingers plucked back and forth on the strings, and the beautiful sound poured out instantly, it was so soft and moving, like a clear spring gurgling, and like the murmur of birds in the forest, one fold and three sighs. Suddenly, the music changed, and the sound of the piano became sonorous and resolute, like a wave hitting a stone, and the river entered the sea, shaking the heartstrings of the people present.

The person who plays the piano is immersive, and the listener is immersed in it, I don't know how long it took, the sound of the piano slowly stopped, but the music still seemed to be floating around, and it didn't go away for a long time.

"My sister is really a good skill, and a song pops up in my heart. The strings cover up the sound and thoughts, as if they are complaining about their lack of ambition. The low-brow letter continued, saying that there are infinite things in my heart. My sister understands the meaning of the poem today. Yuan Ge Yingying got up, and the tassels on her waist made a subtle collision sound, crisp and elegant, and came to Xiao Yuxiao.

"Niangniang is a person who understands the piano." The two looked at each other and smiled.

"Even if this piano is related to my sister, my sister will borrow flowers to offer Buddha and give this piano to my sister." After a song, Yuan Ge could clearly see that Xiao Yuxiao's eyes unconsciously skimmed towards the qin, once, twice...

"Transfer? This qin..."Xiao Yuxiao asked incomprehensibly.

"This piano is called Gaoshan Liushui, it is a guqin master outside the palace to make it by hand, by coincidence to the hands of the Ruan family of Zichen Palace, a few days ago she came to Zhaoyang Palace to meet, said that she did not know the rhythm, it was a waste to use this piano, so it came to my hands. But this palace looks at it today, this qin is not a waste if it is used in your hands. Yuan Ge said, and after explaining, he didn't forget to brush the strings lightly.

"It was originally the Ruan clan of the Zichen Palace... How could that concubine accept such a big gift from her mother..."Xiao Yuxiao slurred as she spoke, obviously unwilling to let go.

"Isn't my sister going to see what she said? They are all sisters of their own family, so why bother. Yuan Ge said slowly.

"Sisters? Come to think of it, the second princess is also old after all..."Xiao Yuxiao instantly understood what Yuan Ge meant.

"My sister is a smart person..."Looking at Xiao Yuxiao's expression, Yuan Ge was relieved, and today's words were not in vain.

Night is gradually approaching, and in Zhaoyang Palace, Yuan Ge still looks preoccupied, holding a book in his hand, but his eyes are empty and weak.

"Little master, it's time to get ready, the lord of the country thinks it's almost there." Looking at Yuan Ge's appearance, Mama Zhao had to step forward and remind.

"Mama, I also know in my heart that this can only be done in this matter, but why, I... But my heart is always sour..."Yuan Ge put down the scroll in his hand in despair, and looked at Mama Zhao helplessly, as if he wanted to get an answer from her.

"Little Lord... Have you really figured it out? If this is the lord of the country.. .” Mama Zhao sighed lightly, and just wanted to turn around and leave, but she was stunned in place, turned around again, and asked.

"What can I do, the Queen Mother doesn't like me in the first place, and she is explicitly hinting at this matter..."Yuan Ge said.

"Then the old body will go and prepare to go down..."Zhao Mama said.

With the departure of Mama Zhao, the Zhaoyang Palace fell silent again, Yuan Ge sat in front of the dresser in a daze, looking at the confused self in the mirror, his hands were naturally clenched, and his long sharp nails sank into the flesh, leaving marks on his palms.

Soon, with the support of Ling An and many attendants, Chonghuai swaggered into Zhaoyang Palace, and as soon as he stepped into Zhaoyang Palace, Chonghuai found that this was different from usual. In the huge Zhaoyang Palace, only a few candles are burned, and under the faint candlelight, Chonghuai can't even see Yuan Ge's figure.

"Ge'er? Songs? Chong Huai sent the attendants and others around him away, groping alone in the dim environment, shouting Yuan Ge's name, but no one answered, and Chong Huai's heart was suddenly full of doubts and puzzles.

"Ge'er, are you there?" With his memory, Chonghuai came to the bedside, and vaguely saw the shadow of a beautiful woman. But what is unexpected is that there is no one next to the woman today, even Mama Zhao, Xiao Tao, and Ah Yue are not there.

Chong Huai walked towards the figure step by step, until he came to the side of the bed, and he finally grabbed the woman on the bed. He approached gently, the distance between the two instantly narrowed, Chonghuai leaned on the woman's neck, he could already smell the fragrance that only belonged to Yuan Ge, that was the first time they did, Chong Huai specially rewarded Yuan Ge, the only one in the palace.

"Ge'er, you're so fragrant...", smelling the fragrance that only belonged to Yuan Ge, kissed her neck gently, and her eyes were full of tenderness.

The woman who was held in her arms didn't speak, and Chonghuai only felt her leaning down and her snort was so warm that it sprayed on his face, and then two soft lips printed. This is the first time Chonghuai has seen her so active, and his heart is suddenly overjoyed, and he is silent, at this moment, he enjoys the woman's initiative.

And at this moment, outside the door, Yuan Ge's figure secretly observed everything about the intimacy between the two in the house.

"Little master...," Mama Zhao called softly.

"Mama, this is all arranged by me, which not only satisfies the queen mother's intentions, but also saves my life, but why, my heart hurts like this..."Yuan Ge said, tears couldn't stop flowing. With the shouts of the woman in the house, Yuan Ge no longer had the courage to continue watching, she turned around sharply and ran out.
