Chapter 248: A Delaying Tactic

In the gorgeous and radiant palace, the cascading bead curtains are half rolled.

A flawless pearl hangs above the palace, flowing with a brilliant and colorful glow of broken shadows. The peacock glazed palace lamps of the wrong color and gold are full of gorgeous and brilliant finches, the beams of light illuminate the whole magnificent palace, and the beautiful peony flowers of the national color and natural fragrance are hanging on the walls of the gold painting.

The fragrance of peonies is enchanted in the palace, and countless precious and delicate gold, silver and jade objects are placed on the finely carved Duobao Pavilion, flowing with brilliant brilliance.

The peacock hair crown made of red gold flowed with gorgeous light, and the imperial concubine sat on the seat of the feather in the hall, looking down condescendingly at a maid kneeling on the ground: "Clerk, do you know that after the palace brought you from the consul office, it left you alone in this palace without paying attention to it, and punished you to kneel in the palace for a night to meditate on yourself, for what?" ”

"Returning to His Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine, the slaves and maids are stupid and do not dare to speculate on His Highness's intentions." The pale blue palace skirt depicting the pattern of weeping willows and birds was scattered on the ground, and the clerk lowered his eyebrows and replied respectfully.

The soft blonde hairpin inlaid with blue-green gems shone brightly, and the imperial concubine smiled slightly when she heard this, and her voice was low and charming: "Stupid...... If you are really stupid, why should the palace bother to bring you from the palace consul's office? Paperwork, you should understand the meaning of this palace. ”

"Her Royal Highness, the clerk ...... After all, the clerk is a maid who works in the palace, and it is really inconvenient to do things for His Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine, so please forgive Your Highness. The white marble gilt carved bricks and stones came into view, and the clerk lowered his head with bated breath, revealing a cautious fear between his words.

The carefully depicted eyebrows revealed a gorgeous and extraordinary brilliance, the imperial concubine casually played with the golden cup between the jade fingers, and the finch feather gem tassel hanging down on the side of her face shone faintly: "Although you are indeed a second-class maid serving in the imperial palace, it is only 'once'." Now that you have been relegated to the consular office by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and you have been demoted to the third-class maid at the bottom of the palace rank, and you have completely disconnected yourself from the palace, why is it inconvenient to do things for the palace? ”

The peacock embroidered with gold thread was on the hem of the silk skirt, and the imperial concubine slowly raised her eyes and asked with a smile: "Besides, you were loyal to the crown prince before, but what did you get in exchange?" ”

"Returning to His Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine, it was the slave maid who did not handle things well, so he was relegated by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to the consular office as a third-class maid, and the slave and maid did not have any complaints in their hearts." The clerk still replied respectfully, she understood the imperial concubine's intention to let her work for her, but she was not willing to turn her back on the old lord of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

The glittering peacock gold crown hung with a flawless pearl, and the imperial concubine was not annoyed when she heard the words, but instead hooked her red lips and smiled very charmingly, and her words were meaningful: "What a loyal maid, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not cherish it, but the palace cherishes it." Documents, this palace hopes that you can weigh the pros and cons well, and don't be rash at the moment, so as not to regret it in the future. ”

"Slave maid...... The love of His Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine was remembered by the slave maid, but the slave and maid were soft-spoken, and they knew that they were not qualified to serve His Royal Highness. The pale blue skirt depicting the weeping willows and birds scattered to the ground like a blooming flower, and the clerk pondered carefully before he considered the words and tactfully declined the gift of the imperial concubine.

Her gentle and beautiful face was impregnated with the bright light and shadow of the glazed palace lamp, she lowered her head and stared at the white marble gilt carved bricks and stones, and her tone was soft and soothing: "Her Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine is beautiful and noble, and she is pampered by thousands of people, and the slave maid is now just a humble and lowly third-class maid, and she is still wearing a sinful body, and she never dares to hope that she can follow and serve Her Royal Highness, so as not to tarnish Her Royal Highness's reputation." ”

"Reputation...... The words that come out of your mouth are very pleasant to listen to. The imperial concubine lowered her eyes and played with her delicate and beautiful nails, and her bright and red nails flowed with a faint luster.

The white fingertips of jade gently caressed from the red nails, and the imperial concubine slowly raised her eyes, and the eyeshadow smeared at the end of the eyes flashed with gorgeous and brilliant pearles: "It's just that fame and reputation are never clean and self-preservation, and they can be easily obtained." Paperwork, this palace knows that you are a smart woman, and this palace does not like to play Tai Chi in twists and turns, besides...... There are many benefits to following this palace. ”

Layers of glossy bead curtains are half-rolled in the palace, the colorful peacock glazed palace lamps are in full swing, and the peonies are blooming beautifully on the gold-painted walls, filled with a hazy and soft glazed halo.

"The slave knows that if you follow and are loyal to Her Royal Highness, you will definitely get many benefits." The slightly old pearl earrings sway slightly on the side of the paper's face, and the fresh and simple bun is very elegant at the back of the neck.

The skin set off by the light blue palace dress became more and more moist like jade, and the clerk raised his eyes and stared at the high imperial concubine calmly, and his voice was like a pearl and jade collision: "His Royal Highness's beautiful will slave maid has received it, but the slave maid really can't follow and serve His Royal Highness, and it is still difficult to protect himself, not to mention ...... What about plotting for His Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine? The slave thinks she doesn't have that monstrous ability. ”

"Clerk, as long as you follow and serve in this palace, what is it to be a mere guilty body?" The red gold and gemstone hairpin obliquely pulled in the cloud bun flowed with gorgeous brilliance, and the imperial concubine raised her eyebrows slightly and her voice was soft.

The delicately carved soft gorse tassel hung down on the side of her face, and her beautiful face was soaked with dazzling brilliance: "As long as you want, this palace can immediately promote you to a first-class gold medal maid, of course, if you are not willing to continue to be a slave, this palace can also personally recommend you to Your Majesty." ”

"Your Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine, the slaves and maids will never dare to give birth to such thoughts, and I hope that Her Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine will be aware of it!" Wen frowned and bowed his head, kneeling respectfully on the ground, his forehead against the overlapping ten fingers.

The gorgeous seat with the gilt finch feather of the sour branch wood reflects the shining streamer, and the imperial concubine raised her jade arm and gently landed on the armrest, her gorgeous red nails were like enchanting red rose petals: "Look at you, this palace didn't scold you sharply, what are you so afraid of?" Besides, your appearance is so delicate and beautiful, if you are favored by Your Majesty and canonized as a concubine, your status will instantly become noble and noble, and you will no longer have to grovel to serve others with tea and water, so what's wrong? ”

The tail of her charming eyes was slightly raised, and she looked down at the clerk who was kneeling on the ground with a smile: "This palace is not a vicious master who treats his attendants harshly, clerk, you have to be careful...... I've figured it out. ”

The ......light blue palace skirt depicting the style of weeping willows and birds was scattered on the ground, and the clerk stared at the white marble gilt carved masonry in front of him, only to feel that the blood in his body was cold and condensed at this moment.

There was a faint light and broken shadow flowing on the slender eyelashes, and the imperial concubine stared at the red goldfinch head decorated on the armrest, and her words were meaningful: "The cherry blossom country is not as open as the customs of other countries, and the palace sometimes always sighs, as a woman, there are too many things that need to be cautious." ”

The red gold bracelet inlaid with many treasures wrapped around the wrist of Frost Snow, she casually fiddled with the red gold bracelet, and the tassels of the finch feathers that fell on the side of her face collided with the sound of Qingyue: "If you always make a mistake inadvertently, you are likely to ruin your life." Besides, most of the men outside the palace have three wives and four concubines, does the clerk want the palace to marry you to the men outside the palace at will? Or because of the offense, he rushed into the palace, and was once again relegated to the consular office, and was forced to do hard labor for life to atone for his sins. ”

"Please calm your anger." The charming and soft voice flowed to his ears, and the paper instantly dripped, and the wisps of black hair fell to the side of his face, stained with cold sweat and sticky on the smooth and flawless skin.

"It's not so easy to calm the anger of this palace, clerk." The imperial concubine stared at the humble and respectful kneeling body of the maid with a smile, and her beautiful eyes sparkled between them, making people swaying and intoxicated.

The finely carved white marble gilt bricks flow with the brilliance of the warm sun, but in the eyes of the clerk, no matter how delicate and gorgeous the objects are, they are all cold in this palace: "Please Your Royal Highness raise your noble hand and let go of the slaves." The slave and maid are stupid and dull, and it is difficult to take on the errand of serving Her Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine, because the slave and maid do not have this blessing, and ask Her Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine to forgive her sins and forgive the slave and maid for their stupid and stupid sins. ”

"Stupid stupid...... If you are really stupid and stupid, this palace will not go to the palace consular office to bring you back. The gorgeous skirt of the golden silk was on the ground, and the imperial concubine sat on the seat with the opening screen of the finches, raising her wrists and contemplating her eyes to reveal a bewitching and charming demeanor.

The peacock dark pattern embroidered with gold thread shone brightly, she raised her jade arm and looked down at the red gold bracelet inlaid with gems, and the gorgeous and delicate tassels flowed with brilliant golden light between the collisions: "Clerk, this palace sometimes really doesn't understand, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't care about you at all on weekdays, in his eyes you are just a humble and lowly slave, even if you kill it, it doesn't matter, why are you so loyal to him?" ”

"Returning to His Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine, the slave maid has never complained about the disregard and denigration of His Royal Highness the Prince, and the slave and maid only know that as a palace maid, serving the master well is the most important thing." The cold white marble gilt carved bricks and stones were tightly attached to the delicate and warm palm, and the clerk knelt on the ground respectfully and humbly, and replied softly.

Hui Ze's faint peacock golden crown swayed the hanging pearl slightly, and the imperial concubine hooked her red lips: "It's a good sentence 'Serving a good master is the most important thing', paperwork, this palace really underestimated you before." To be so loyal, to be so cautious, and to be so intelligent, is a talent. ”

The red gorse hairpin inlaid with turquoise gemstones swayed with gorgeous tassels, she lowered her eyebrows, and said slowly thoughtfully: "There is just a sentence that this palace has always regarded as the truth, do you want to hear it?" ”

"Her Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine is Jinzun Yukou, and the slaves and maids are willing to listen to it." The pearl earrings froze on the side of the paperwork's white jade-like ears, and she knelt on the ground with bated breath, revealing a respectful attitude between her words.

The gorgeous golden peacock dark pattern skirt suddenly dragged on the white marble jade steps, and the imperial concubine slowly got up with an elegant posture and walked to a pot of beautiful and fragrant peony flowers: "This sentence is simple and simple, and it is difficult to say difficult." Only knows how to work hard for the master's foolishness, that is a fool: only by judging the situation is a talent. Clerk, do you want to be a foolish and loyal fool, or do you want to be a talent who judges the situation? ”

"Slave, slave and maid, ......" The charming and soft voice flowed in the magnificent palace, and the clerk knelt and kowtowed tremblingly, only to feel that every word seemed to be stained with rust and stagnant in the throat.

"Although the former is loyal and clean, if he loses his life because of his foolish loyalty, it will not be beautiful." The blooming peony flowers were dyed with a bright and blurry halo, and the imperial concubine raised her hand to gently caress the soft and delicate petals, and her words meant something.

"Please calm your anger and forgive the sins of the slaves and maids." The fragrance of the peony flowers soaked in the palace, and the clerk sniffed the fragrance of the flowers that lingered on the tip of his nose, only to feel that his mind became more and more groggy.

The cascading pale pink peony petals were soaked in the slender jade fingers of the imperial concubine, and she lowered her eyes to fold the blooming beautiful and intoxicating peony flowers, and walked slowly to the document with elegant steps: "What are you guilty of?" A loyal, intelligent and cautious maid like you, it's too late for the palace to like it, so how can I blame you at will? It's just that you're too stubborn, stubborn to make this palace ...... I want to kill you. ”

"Please forgive Her Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine, the slave and maid are really stupid, and they have angered Your Highness, and please ask Her Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine to forgive the life of the slave and maid." The cold white marble gilt carved bricks and stones were on the kneecap, and the clerk forcibly endured the prickly pain coming from the kneecap, and his originally soft and soothing voice trembled slightly.

The cascading pale pink peony flowers and the beautiful face of the imperial concubine complement each other, flowing with the dazzling brilliance of the hall, she leaned over elegantly, and her jade fingers gently raised the delicate chin of the paperwork: "Look, how gentle and beautiful your face is, and your skin is also smooth and flawless." These eyes, in particular, are so clear that they seem to be able to see the end at a glance and see through what you are thinking. But the clerk, this palace loves you and cherishes you because of your intelligence and prudence, not because you are --- ignorant of lifting. ”

The thick eyelashes drooped slightly, and the imperial concubine stared at the gentle and beautiful face in her hand, word by word, and said loudly: "Do you understand the meaning of this palace?" ”

"Slave maid...... Got it. But the slave had something in her heart, and she didn't know whether to say it or not. The clear pupils were as clear as water, and the beautiful face of the imperial concubine was clearly reflected, and the clerk's eyes moved slightly, and he had a way in his heart.

"Say it." The imperial concubine slowly let go of the jade finger that raised the lower jaw of the paperwork, and she got up gracefully with the support of the maid beside her, and the golden silk skirt embroidered with peacock dark patterns swayed to the ground, flowing with gorgeous radiance.

The slightly old pearl earrings swayed on the side of the paperwork's white jade-like ears, she bowed respectfully, and her gentle and beautiful eyebrows showed a little panicked look: "Before the slave maid said, the slave maid wanted to ask His Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine for forgiveness of the slave maid's disrespectful words, otherwise even if the slave maid was given ten dares, the slave and maid would never dare to say it at will." ”

“…… This palace promises you that you will be not guilty. The crown of peacock hair made of red gold was adorned with gorgeous gemstones, and the imperial concubine pondered for a moment when she heard this, and then her jaw tapped lightly and answered softly.

"In that case, the slave knows everything." The pale blue palace skirt depicting weeping willows and birds blooms like a blooming flower on a delicate and gorgeous jade brick, and the clerk folds his hands to straighten his upper body.

The white marble gilt jade bricks reflected the glorious brilliance of the hall, she raised her eyes and knelt straight up to stare at the beautiful imperial concubine, her words were full of sincerity and sincerity, so that the listeners were all moved: "Now the slave maid was reprimanded by His Royal Highness the crown prince to the palace consular office because of his mistakes, and was demoted to a third-class maid, if he does not do hard labor to atone for his sins, but tries to cling to His Royal Highness the imperial concubine, he will definitely be rumored to be treacherous and unfaithful by other maids in the palace, and it will even be rumored that the slave and the imperial concubine are colluding, Vicious rumors that they deliberately gathered together to secretly plot against His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. ”

"Deliberately gathered together?" When the imperial concubine heard this, she raised the delicate and bewitching long eyebrows depicted, her beautiful eyes were soaked in a cold and cold color, and her red lips were as enchanting and magnificent as if condensed with blood.

"That's right, deliberately gathered together." The fragrance of the peony flowers is enchanted in the palace. The clerk raised his eyes and stared at the imperial concubine who was covered in gold, silver, pearl and jade, silk and satin, and replied word by word.

The pearl earrings swayed on the side of the ears as white as jade, and the slightly dull luster was soaked in the ink hair of the document, flowing with a faint old pearlescent light: "Please ask Her Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine to carefully analyze what the slave maid just said, if you are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the palace has just belittled the third-class maid who was soon punished to the consular office for hard labor, not only did not think about her own mistakes, but instead took refuge in the side of Her Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine, would you not doubt it?" ”

"If this palace is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...... The golden peacock dark silk skirt dragged silently with the elegant steps of the imperial concubine, and she drooped her thick eyelashes thoughtfully when she heard this, and the peacock gold crown inlaid with turquoise gems suddenly became very heavy at this moment, pressing on the top of her head.

The red gold and gemstone finch hairpin that was obliquely held in the cloud bun slipped a few points slightly, and after the imperial concubine raised her hand and acted softly, the sound of Qingyue flowed between the collision of the falling gem tassels: "You are right, if the palace is His Royal Highness the crown prince, and the maid serving the palace is degraded and suddenly takes refuge in serving the concubine, it is really difficult not to doubt the intentions between the maid and the concubine, and it can even be said that --- have ill intentions and ill intentions." ”
