Chapter 47, the beginning of the hazy heart (middle)

When discussing this morning's decision, the concubines who noticed that their faces were not worried and that there was jealousy in their eyes, considering which ones could be resolved, and which ones had to be guarded against, Ming Shiyun actually had some curiosity about Concubine Liangshu, although she had to open her mouth this morning to relieve the siege, and then helped stop Concubine Rong who had been glaring at herself undisguisedly, but Ming Shiyun always felt that she was not a person who could get along with herself.

"Wanyi, what do you think of Concubine Liangshu's performance today? She seems to have been helping me all along, but ......" Ming Shiyun didn't say it explicitly, one suspected that it was inappropriate for someone who showed kindness to her, and second, she didn't know what made Concubine Liang feel wrong.

"Liang Shufei Niangniang has been in the palace for more than ten years, although her mother's family is not prominent, but fortunately, she is favored by Sheng, and she has been promoted from a small talented little master to a lady concubine, but she has always been out of nothing, but she has also been regretted by the emperor, but anyway, His Majesty is very happy, so he doesn't care much." Tang Wanyi was blessed, and continued, "Concubine Shu has always been kind and friendly, because of her clever perfume mixing methods, she often sends her own new good incense to the palaces, and her reputation has always been good, plus the noble concubine Niangniang, who is also the fourth concubine with her, is arrogant and stern and ruthless, and Concubine Shu's gentleness is even more popular." ”

"So, she's a pretty good person, isn't she?"

"That's all I have to say, in fact, Niangniang's concerns are not biased, because although Concubine Shuniang looks good and has won a lot of praise, but in the palace for many years, there are not many rumors about her, at first because she has never come out, and then there was a stillbirth of Ru Guifei, under the words, there are even people who accuse it of being related to Concubine Liang, because the emperor loves to go to her, saying that there are many problems with the incense in Concubine Liang's palace, but it can't be found out anyway, just talk about it."

"Then in your opinion, are these things purely chasing after the wind, or may they not be groundless?"

"The slave maid has no evidence, so it's really hard to say, but the slave maid thinks that it's good to prevent her after all, how to say that she is the same type of person as Niangniang, and she has nothing to do, only by virtue of the emperor's grace to have her current status, if she steals the limelight from Niangniang, then she will have no way back at all." When she spoke, the sweet soup was already warm, Tang Wanyi carefully handed the simmered tonic sweet soup to Ming Shiyun's hand, and continued to give her advice, "In comparison, the slave maid thinks that Hua Guifei is more reliable, after all, she has a fifth prince, this alone is enough for her to look like His Majesty's favor, and there is no conflict with Niangniang here at all, not to mention that if Niangniang can really recommend it between the pillow seats, it will be a benefit to the battle for the succession of the five princes." ”

"In other words, after all, you should put your mind down on the queen and Concubine Hua, and Concubine Liang Shu, it's not better than wooing, as long as you take precautions?" Slowly drinking today's tonic sweet soup, Ming Shiyun pondered for a while, and finally nodded, "But I think that even if Concubine Liang Shu wants to do it, she won't do it herself, you let Lu Rui pay attention to the incense sent by her palace, no matter how strange and easy to use, it will be stored in the treasury and not taken out." ”

While he was talking, another eunuch came to report, saying that the five princes were visiting, Ming Shiyun and Ziling Wanyi glanced at each other, and they were a little surprised and puzzled by each other.

"The Fifth Prince? What did he come to do? I'm not his real mother, do you still need to say hello to me? ”

"The fifth prince is not a person who can be guessed by slaves." Tang Wanyi shook her head with some confusion, "But after all, he is a favored prince, and he came to visit according to the number of courtesies, why don't you go and see each other?" ”

"Well, seeing nature is to see." Gently putting down the cup of sweet soup, Ming Shiyun smiled slightly, and when she got up with Ziling's hand, she opened her lips slightly, "But after all, I am his elder, even if he does a little more courtesy, he should think about it, don't you say?" ”

"That's what the mother commands." Knowing that the five princes had come to see the ceremony for the second time, after all, Ming Shiyun was a young concubine, and it was very appropriate to avoid suspicion, Tang Wanyi bowed down again, and was ready to go to the front hall to deal with the five princes first according to her instructions.

"This doesn't need me to command, you just find a reason to send him for a while, I'll change my clothes and jewelry first, and it's not decent to go to see him in such a fixed province."

"Yes, slave maid understands."

Not to mention that Tang Wanyi went to the front hall to send the five princes, Ming Shiyun slowly changed and reorganized under Ziling's service, and her mind was a little uncertain.

"...... Are you thinking about the visit of the five princes? ”

"It's said that he can't guess his mind, I really don't want to be ignorant and ignorant to make wedding clothes for others, besides, don't you think that every time he comes, he always makes people confused?"

“…… However, didn't the fifth prince come here once before? Ziling was a little puzzled, although according to Tang Wanyi's statement, the five princes were really not easy to deal with, and because of this, the battle for the heir at this time could be more or less associated there, but he only came for the second time, but in Ming Shiyun's words, he felt that it was not just that once.

"I ...... I once met the Five Princes, when they were in the Imperial Garden. Hearing Zi Ling's suspicious question, Ming Shiyun realized that she had leaked her mouth without checking for a while, and she was the only one who was there, so she simply stopped hiding it, "Zi Ling, I still have some reservations about Wan Yi, but I am absolutely relieved of you, I actually met the Five Princes once when I was in the Imperial Garden, and that was the first time I saw him, he was ...... At that time...... I can't say it clearly, but I always feel that he is not such a simple person, and after he came last time, I felt flustered and couldn't help but think of him, hunting that time, he was always looking at me during the night banquet, and also, he teased me with his eyes, Ziling Ziling, I really don't want to meet him, I always feel flustered, and I feel overwhelmed, he is like my disaster, as if he was born to come to me. ”

"Oh, my good mother, I don't dare to say this again." Ming Shiyun is still young, so she is ignorant, but Ziling is a person who knows the world, and she was startled by her confession like this, and she couldn't wait to quickly cover her mouth with her hand, "You are the emperor's concubine, you can't have such a mind, the five princes are outstanding, and the admiration of the mother is also a matter of course, but now you are his elder, such a thing in the palace is absolutely unforgivable, you can do it, you have to contain your thoughts, Niangniang." ”
