Chapter 60: Understanding
Yun Xiaoxiao didn't answer, as if she hadn't heard Ji Yunhui's words, her bright-eyed eyes glanced at Ji Yunhui, who turned her head to look at Qin Yuning and hoped that Qin Yuning would help speak.
When Ji Yunhui turned her eyes to look back, she quietly looked away and looked at a place for a moment.
Ji Yunhui looked suspiciously in the direction that Yun Xiaoxiao was looking at, and just saw Queen Cheng Lingyue walking in with the stars holding the moon surrounded by palace maids and grandmothers.
The queen's bedroom to the main hall generally passes through the side hall, and these concubines are waiting in the side hall in order to welcome the queen.
A group of concubines stood up one after another and went to the main hall, and Yun Xiaoxiao also stood up, "Sister Qin, Sister Ji, let's go in too, and I'll talk about it when I have something to say." ”
The queen mother came, and Ji Yunhui didn't dare to say anything even if she wanted to, so she could only obediently follow Yun Xiaoxiao to the main hall.
This morning, Cheng Lingyue hastily said a few words and asked them to disband.
Because of the Halloween incident, the entire palace was busy, and as the master of the harem, Queen Cheng Lingyue was also busy.
From repairs and furnishings to dishes and snacks, Queen Cheng Lingyue needs to be the master, and the dishes also need to be seen by the Queen Mother, although the Queen Mother exempted them from the etiquette of greeting them, but it is related to the Emperor's Longevity Festival, Queen Cheng Lingyue still needs to ask her for her opinion.
In fact, the queen is the master of the harem, and the queen mother gave her all the power, but Cheng Lingyue is not an ordinary person, she is in charge of small things, and such a major event is for the queen mother to see, and she can't blame her for anything.
Who is the Queen Mother?
She has been immersed in the harem for decades, and she can go from a side concubine to a queen mother to the queen mother, and she can say that she has passed five levels and six generals, how can she not see through the queen Cheng Lingyue's thoughts.
However, in order to give her a face that a queen should have, it was not broken, so Queen Cheng Lingyue asked her to pass the things, unless it was really inappropriate, she would modify it, and she would not modify it.
Today, after Queen Cheng Lingyue left, Mama Guo, who was next to the Queen Mother, changed a cup of tea for the Queen Mother, and was about to retire to prepare snacks for the Queen Mother, when she was stopped by the Queen Mother.
"Pearl, did you say that I chose the wrong queen back then? Why is it that she still calculates me like this today? Guarding against me? The Queen Mother looked at the direction of the palace gate with heavy eyes, as if she saw the back of Queen Cheng Lingyue through the palace gate.
The Queen Mother can speak the words of the queen, how can she, as a grandmother, say the words of the master, even if she is the personal mother of the Queen Mother and the head of Kangshou Palace, she can't follow the words of the Queen Mother.
Mama Guo walked behind the Queen Mother, massaged her shoulders, and after a while, she said, "Isn't the Queen Mother cautious?" Besides, this is also the filial piety of the queen's mother, so ......"
It's just that Mama Guo was stopped by the Queen Mother before she finished speaking, "Okay, you don't have to explain it to her, hasn't she seen through what kind of mourning family she is?" ”
Hearing that the Queen Mother changed from me back to the mourning family, I knew that the Queen Mother was angry in her heart, and Mama Guo had to say that other things distracted the Queen Mother's attention.
In Mama Guo's deliberate flattery, the Queen Mother's mood quickly became happy again, the two talked and laughed, and even found two big palace maids to play horse cranes together.

The side hall of Xianyang Palace
"Qi Yu Niangniang, there is news from Ji Xiaoyi's side, Xi Shunyi is performing a dance."
"Qi Yu Niangniang, the slave found out that Cao Guiyi was performing a dance."
"Qi Yu Niangniang, the slave maid found out that Ying Guifei was performing a dance."
……
When Concubine Xu Jinse danced a dance to rest, the eunuchs and palace maids who were in charge of the investigation went back and forth.
Concubine Xu Jinse doesn't care about those who play the piano, paint and write or something, but she has to find out about those who dance.
"Is there a dance of the Thriller?" Concubine Xu Jinse stretched her body slowly, stretching her hands and feet slowly, although the movements were slow, but they were smart and elegant, and her hands and feet looked beautiful and noble, eye-catching, and people couldn't take their eyes off.
Even the palace maids who were waiting on the side couldn't take their eyes off it, and after she stopped, those fiery adoring eyes did not decrease at all.
Let the corners of Concubine Xu Jinse's mouth slowly hook, and smile in her heart, just a faint smile on her face.
"Hui Niangniang, no, no one danced the amazing dance, but Xi Shunyi only inquired about performing dances, but didn't find out what dances were performed." After Wen Ping thought about it, her expression was a little serious.
"Oh, no news at all?" Concubine Xu Jinse raised her eyebrows suspiciously.
"Yes, because this little master of Xi Shunyi has not rehearsed at all, nor has he skipped in the palace, the slave maid has already sent someone to her house to investigate, and there will be news back soon." As the number one palace maid beside Concubine Xu Jinse, Wen Ping knew what Concubine Shu paid attention to, and after hearing that the report did not find out what dance to dance, she had already sent someone out of the palace to investigate.
She didn't dance in the palace, she didn't believe that she didn't dance at home, she didn't practice dancing?
"Very well done." Concubine Xu Jinse praised, and sent a group of palace maids out, leaving only Wen Ping to watch her rehearse.
But the next day, Concubine Xu Jinse was still disappointed.
"Yu Niangniang, the little master of Xi Shunyi contacted the dance when he was at home, but the dance was not good, but he played a good flute." Wen Ping told Concubine Xu Jinse about the news she received, and at the same time she asked puzzledly, "Since this little master Xi is the best at flute, why doesn't he perform the flute?" Instead perform a dance that you are not skilled in? ”
Concubine Xu Jinse smiled when she heard this, "Among so many talents, the posture of the flute is the most inconspicuous, even if the performance is more brilliant, it cannot be compared with others, so it is normal for her to choose dance performances, even if she dances badly, with her appearance and figure, she can still attract the emperor's attention." ”
Just because she is there, you don't want to be appreciated by the emperor at dawn, Xu Jinse is still very confident in his dance.
"That lady must not let her get her wish." Wen Ping said indignantly.
Concubine Xu Jinse didn't speak, just smiled faintly, but the confidence and calmness on her face exuded undisguisedly, as if she was the first place.

Cui Yuxuan
"Little Lord, the palace maid of Little Lord Ji and the palace maid in the palace of Concubine Shuniang contacted again, and they met today and talked about the time of a cup of tea." Zhou Anju, who was in charge of finding out the news, reported what he saw to Yun Xiaoxiao, "The distance is far, and the minions didn't hear what they said clearly." ”
"I see, thank you." Yun Xiaoxiao nodded, indicating that he understood, and did not ask and instructed Zhou Anju to find out what they said.
This made Zhou Anju secretly breathe a sigh of relief, if he really wanted to investigate, he was really not good at investigating, it would definitely take a lot of manpower and material resources, but fortunately, the little master was sensible.
In fact, Yun Xiaoxiao also guessed what Ji Yunhui's people and Concubine Shu's people said, it was nothing more than what she performed on the day of Wanshou Day.
Otherwise, Ji Yunhui wouldn't have inquired too much.
Just her dance...... Hehe, it's going to surprise them.
Yun Xiaoxiao hooked her lips and smiled slightly, and let Zhou Anju go down, and then Yun Xiaoxiao instructed that when she made dresses for Xiang Xiang and Ai Ye, she must not be seen by others, and even if she wants to practice dancing, she is in the inner room.
The inner room is the only place where others can't go in and out at will, and it's not so easy to see.
And so soon it was time for Hallowe.
