"It's a New Year's gift, and I made it myself." She was similar to Yun Qingyuan, so she did it according to her own size.

Yun Qingyuan was surprised, no wonder the design and embroidery of this dress are different, but how much effort does it take to make this clothes.

Her nose suddenly became sore, and she only felt that this dress weighed a thousand pounds. Although she is not a sister, she is better than her sister.

"Sister......" Yun Qingyuan choked up.

"Isn't it just a piece of clothing, it's okay, go back and try it, if there's anything inappropriate, take it back and let me change it."

After sending Yun Qingyuan away, Yingyue Xuan came with another distinguished guest.

Zhou Luying is already a fourth-grade beauty, she is wearing a bose luan dress that mops the floor, a long skirt that drags the ground, a wide skirt, a shining streamer swinging around, and the skirt is equipped with a fingernail-sized night pearl inlay, which is swaying and jingling.

In the cold winter, her face was crimson, she wore a wishful bun, and obliquely curled a red gold vermilion hairpin, which was extraordinarily luxurious.

"Sister, it's a nice place to be in a quiet environment." Zhou Luying looked out the window, it was snowing again at this time, and the goose feathers and snow were falling all over the sky, and the sky and earth were particularly quiet.

"I like it here." Tao Zhiyuan was also satisfied.

"But the plum blossoms in Yichun Palace are blooming just right, does my sister like it?" Zhou Luying watched her reaction carefully.

Tao Zhiyuan smiled, and her crystal fingers paused on the teacup.

"My sister lives in Yichun Palace, and my sister has something to say."

"Since my sister said so, then I will also make it clear." Zhou Luying's face became solemn, "Concubine Xian is now covering the sky with one hand in the harem, and the queen and I are weak, so I want to ask my sister to help us." ”

"Sister, I like my life now." Tao Zhiyuan refused.

"Do you want to die of old age in the harem like this? Do you like slaves bullying you, a picker? Look at the tea in your Yingyue Xuan, it's unbearable! Zhou Luying threw the teacup in her hand on the ground, making a screeching sound, and the broken porcelain pieces were everywhere, so startled that Yingmeng and her close maid Xueping both knelt down.

"I can't even drink tea when I'm dead." Tao Zhiyuan was not afraid, but said very calmly.

Zhou Luying couldn't imagine that she would say such a sentence, and she calmed down for a while.

"Wouldn't it be better to live in peace? It doesn't matter if it's a little bitter. Tao Zhiyuan took a sip of tea, although it was an inferior tea, it was still tea.

"If the person you like is in danger, will you give up your present peace?" Zhou Luying stared at Tao Zhiyuan's eyes, deep and with a hint of sadness.

Tao Zhiyuan felt a faint pain in her heart, there was still no expression on her face, her gaze brushed over Zhou Luying's body shallowly, and said, "It used to be, but now it won." ”

Zhou Luying suddenly smiled gloomily, her words seemed to be mixed with endless sadness: "I only live for one person, no matter when, I will give up everything for him." ”

Tao Zhiyuan felt a burst of sourness in her heart for some reason, she secretly scolded herself, he is not Yi, why is he like this.

"Sister, I have no one to trust, do you really want to help me?" Zhou Luying asked again seriously.

"I don't want to get involved, and I don't want my sister to get involved." Tao Zhiyuan also replied seriously.

Zhou Luying got up gloomily: "Okay, it's almost the New Year, and I will instruct the Internal Affairs Office to give you more New Year's rewards." ”

Then Zhou Luying left Yingyue Xuan without looking back, Xue Ping followed quickly with an umbrella, and said, "Niangniang, it's still snowing, it's freezing carefully." ”

Zhou Luying still walked quickly, and the snowflakes fell on her, only feeling cold.

She only has her own ups and downs in this harem, and her life has already been arranged, and she is not allowed to resist.

She knew that she was just a chess piece, worthless, and without her, the Queen Mother would find a second one to take her place.

Humble status, that's something she can't change, adopted daughter? She wanted to throw her head up and laugh.

She's just a pawn.

That day, she went to greet the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother sat on the couch, the hanging golden light veil covered her face, the delicacy on the little trumpet had not been touched earlier, her eyebrows were frowning, and her heart was heavy.

"Queen Mother, you can eat a little." Aunt Xue offered silver chopsticks on the side.

"I don't have an appetite, Xinmin, you can take it down early, the mourning family is a little tight-chested when I see it." The Queen Mother gently rubbed her temples, and the sorrow between her eyebrows did not subside.

Aunt Xue had no choice but to comply, and ordered the palace maid to remove it early.

"Lu Ying, do you have a favorite candidate?" The Queen Mother raised her eyes slightly and stared at Zhou Luying, who was bowing her head.

"Back to the Queen Mother, there is a candidate for the concubine, Yun Qingling."

A contemptuous smile appeared in the Queen Mother's mouth, and her gaze did not leave Zhou Luying for a moment: "When Xinmin rewarded her that day, you were also there, right?" ”

"Yes, the concubine is also present."

"Then tell me why the mourning family gave her a reward."

Zhou Luying tensed her nerves, pondered for a while, and said: "Let her become the target of the public, see if she can get out." ”

"That's one of them." The Queen Mother motioned to Aunt Xue to pick up the light veil, and she stood up and walked down slowly.

She is dressed in a simple green satin robe, dignified and **, she combs her usual hair in a bun and slightly powders. If Tao Zhiyuan was here at this moment, she would definitely be surprised that the noble lady who was gambling on the street that day was actually the current Queen Mother - Shi Yibing!

"She once helped the mourning family, and the mourning family returned her a favor, which is the second." The Queen Mother smiled lightly when she recalled that day, "But ah, I can't see her in the general election, someone reported to the mourning family, and Qin Peihan was the obstacle." ”

Zhou Luying was slightly stunned, thinking of Qin Peihan's strong personality, which is also a natural thing, but although Qin Peihan is strong, the city government is not deep, Qin Peihan's tricks, can't Yun Qingling see it?

The Queen Mother approached slowly, understood the doubts in her eyes, and whispered: "The mourning family guesses that she has two reasons, first, she has no defensive heart, and second, she doesn't want to compete for favor. Guess what kind of person she is? ”

Zhou Luying was short of breath, sweating at the corners of her forehead, she weighed it in her heart, but she couldn't grasp it accurately.

"No matter which one it is, this person is terrible, she has no scheming, how to deal with the virtuous concubine in the harem, she has no desire to compete for favor, and she will not do everything possible to win the emperor's heart." The Queen Mother looked at Zhou Luying, "The mourning family sees that this Qin Peihan is good, and if he teaches him, he should be a talent that can be created." ”

Zhou Luying hadn't had time to get together with Qin Peihan, but Xue Ping hurriedly ran to say that Qin Peihan had fallen into the lake and had drowned.

She only felt sad in her heart, the queen was cowardly by nature, and now she was fighting alone.

No, she was always just a person.

She was an orphan, but she was adopted by Aunt Xue when she was ten years old, and trained with a group of girls of the same age, whether it was martial arts, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she was proficient.
