Chapter 247: On the Eve of the Storm
"No, no, Sister Yulin doesn't need to apologize, I don't blame you, anyway, I think this Chuxiu Palace is almost over, and the last real election should start immediately."
"Hmm...... When I got home, I saw what my father knew about them. β
β¦β¦

Panlong Mountain.
Two black shadows, one in front of the other, climbed from the bottom of the Lifeng cliff to the Tianchi Courtyard, and finally fell into the courtyard.
One of the black shadows, Ye Qingyan had seen in Qixiang Palace, was none other than Concubine Xue's second senior brother Liu Yu. The other black shadow bent over and hunched his back, his pale hair neatly tied into a bun, and his face looked like that of an old woman.
Liu Yu took out a brocade box from his pocket and handed it to the old woman, "Mother-in-law Wulan, the little junior sister wants this woman to die." β
"Then I owe her a favor, even if it is settled." Granny Ulan stretched out her withered hand and took the brocade box.
Liu Yu nodded, "Yes." β
Granny Wulan put the brocade box in her sleeve, and looked at the Tianchi Courtyard with her vicissitudes of life, "The ghost town has left here." β
When Liu Yu heard the three words of Ghost Maze Town, he couldn't help but be suspicious.
"My mother-in-law has been looking for Ghost Maze Town for most of her life, is there any such place?"
"Naturally, there is. It's just that I'm very old and don't have a few days to live, so I don't know if I can find the rest of the time. β
"If there really is this place, my mother-in-law will definitely get her wish."
"Thank you Shizi Jiyan. If nothing else, the old woman left first. Granny Ulan said and jumped off the cliff again, with her hands behind her back, very calmly and calmly.
Liu Yu looked around, and finally his eyes fell on the large and three small hot spring pools.
One of the small hot springs has a groove open by it.
Walked over and looked at it, then took out a bottle of ointment from the groove, "Disguise cream?" Then I smelled it, and a faint and elegant aroma hit my nose, "It's a special taste." β
β¦β¦
When Ye Qingyan woke up again, he had already returned to Kunyuan Palace, and it was time to go to the Queen Mother to say goodbye.
Chunyu waited for Ye Qingyan to get up, "Niangniang, you don't have to go to Changle Palace today." The Queen Mother sent someone over to pass the word, saying that she was in poor health and was exempted from asking for peace. β
"Then I can't afford it." Ye Qingyan immediately had to lie down again.
Chunyu hurriedly stopped her, "But the big and small masters, I came to Kunyuan Palace to greet you, so I still have to get up." In addition to the palaces, Ouyang Xiunu also came, and she would leave the palace after thanking her. β
"She just left directly, not to Kunyuan Palace, wasting time to reunite with her family in vain." Ye Qingyan got off the bed, and then let Chunyu help her freshen up.
Chunyu waited for Ye Qingyan and said, "I probably want to give my mother a good impression of being sensible." β
"If you enter the palace in the future, you can know the rules." Ye Qingyan sighed.
"Niangniang, do you want Ouyang Xiunu to enter the palace?"
"It's not something I want to think about, but Your Majesty is now heavy on military force, and every day in addition to the court meeting, there is also a military cabinet meeting, and the power of the General's Mansion must be indispensable. It is imperative to let Ouyang Yulin enter the palace. β
"That Ouyang Xiunu is very beautiful, and she is only sixteen years old, three years younger than Niangniang."
ββ¦β¦ You mean, Hongu is already old? β
"It's the slave who heard that men like young people."
"Oh? When I see His Majesty, I will ask him. β
"Huh?" The spring rain is falling, how can you ask people directly about this......
"I will also name you, saying that you told this palace."
Chunyu wanted to cry without tears: "Niangniang, you spare the slave maid." β
"I won't spare you."
"For lunch, the slave maid has prepared roast duck for you."
"Two!"
ββ¦β¦ Let's go! β
"Deal."
β¦β¦
Ye Qingyan sat on the phoenix seat of the noble treasure and watched the concubines led by Concubine Xue bow to her. Speaking of this life, this is the first time in this life, and they have been invited to give a big gift by them.
Ouyang Yulin was also among them, she was here to thank her, so after asking for peace, she stepped back first and prepared to leave the palace.
The rest of the concubines, Ye Qingyan asked Chunyu to prepare refreshments, invited them to eat tea, and talked and chatted casually, which is also one of the daily things that the queen must do, although she doesn't want to socialize, and these concubines probably have the same idea as her. But this is the rule, giving people the appearance of harmony in the harem.
While laughing, Concubine Xue would occasionally look at her, with a faint hint of treachery in her eyes.
Ye Qingyan thought about the matter of being cut off...... Is she going to have a seizure?
β¦β¦
Ouyang Yulin took large and small boxes and a cart of things, and after being checked one by one by the stewards and eunuchs of the inner chamberlain, he made sure that there were no prohibited items, and then let him leave the harem with them.
As soon as Zheng Kun'er got up in the morning, she felt hairy in her heart, as if something bad was about to happen. She followed Ouyang Yulin all the time, watching her out of the palace gate, and she was stopped inside the palace gate. That bad feeling is getting stronger and stronger.
"Sister Yulinβcherish!" Seeing Ouyang Yulin walking away, Zheng Yun'er raised her hand and shook her hand vigorously and shouted.
Ouyang Yulin lifted the curtain of the carriage and said with a smile: "I'll be back tomorrow, and I'll bring you Poria cake." "Zheng Jun'er likes to eat Poria cakes, especially those made by her mother.
As soon as she heard that there was Poria cake to eat, Zheng Jun'er got rid of the uneasiness in her heart, it should be that she didn't rest last night, thinking nonsense.
"Okay, bring a little more."
"Got it, let's go back."
It wasn't until the carriage disappeared and was completely out of sight that Zheng Jun'er left the palace gate and returned to Chuxiu Palace.
β¦β¦
Anding Hou Mansion, outside the door of Yining Xuanββ
"I heard that the young lady of General Ouyang's Mansion went back to her parents' house to save her relatives and brought a lot of rewards."
"Really? Our seventh lady didn't seem to bring anything back when she returned home. β
"Eighty percent of our seven young ladies were unsuccessful. But Miss Ouyang is different. The carriage in the palace sent it back, and several eunuchs and grandmothers followed, after all, it was a show girl, and half a step away was a person from the heavenly family, so be careful, I was afraid that something would go wrong when I left the palace. β
"Anyway, this Miss Ouyang is not as beautiful as our Seventh Miss, and it should be her Miss Ouyang if she really loses."
"Who knows, maybe what's going on here."
"Will it? But when Mrs. gave us the monthly money two days ago, she was in a good mood, and she gave us more rewards. β
"What did you say?" Ye Jingning suddenly appeared behind the door, with long hair scattered, a face that had not eaten for a few days, where was there still a flower and moon appearance, as white and gloomy as a female ghost, with a pair of extraordinarily large eyes, staring at the two mothers-in-law outside the door, as if they owed her life.
The two mothers-in-law were so frightened that they trembled in unison, but fortunately, the door of this courtyard was locked, and it was still broad daylight, otherwise they would not dare to be here.
