Guo Zhenzhen lowered her eyes and swept over the accounts.

Chu Miao came to her to 'learn the rules and gain knowledge' was proposed by the Queen Mother.

On the surface, the words are good, but it is because she has the longest experience in the palace and is comprehensive in all aspects, so she can rest assured that Chu Miao will follow her to open her eyes.

But if you want to open your eyes in this harem, there are more concubines who have long knowledge, does anyone have this treatment?

Isn't it the Queen Mother who is ready to covet her rights at will?

But Qi Ying also nodded her head about this, and she didn't object to the Queen Mother, thinking that she had reached some kind of agreement with the Queen Mother, and now it seems that her position as a noble concubine is not for no reason.

Since it has been inherited, what should be taught still has to be taught, but after all, these things are still a comprehension, or put in a hundred times more effort than ordinary people.

Since it was not an overnight effort, although Guo Zhenzhen was unhappy in her heart, she was not so irritable.

She was holding a newly acquired hosta in her hand and looking at it, just took the pointed end and pointed to the account book, and pointed to another book on the table: "This column and this column are taken care of, and the slightest mistake is also a kung fu work, you first take a closer look at this item clearly, and the accounts on the back are stacked together, which is even more dazzling, but there is no hurry, the days are still long, and there is still a lot to learn." ”

Chu Miao's chin responded, raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, looking at it these days, her eyes were really a little painful, but she didn't dare not work hard, Qingping always followed her side and whispered her face, she couldn't listen to the queen mother's meaning all the time, but Qingping could always pass on words.

Chu Miao probably knows how difficult it is for Guo Zhenzhen to get to this position, unlike her, she has not gone through any major ups and downs in the previous days, and she has never seen the appearance of the battlefield in person, but now relying on the Queen Mother, she has ascended to the sky step by step, and when she heard the Queen Mother say that she wanted to come to Concubine Xian to learn the rules and knowledge, Chu Miao was still very worried, afraid that Guo Zhenzhen would look at her kindness on her face, but she also hated her as much as Concubine Qing when she entered the palace and wanted to take advantage of everything.

After all, the person closest to the queen's throne today is Guo Zhenzhen.

However, Guo Zhenzhen is not a person like Concubine Qing, she has to maintain her reputation as virtuous and virtuous, even if she is a little perfunctory, she is still kind and not too embarrassed by herself.

Chu Miao couldn't say that Guo Zhenzhen was not good at it, and she hadn't been reprimanded by Guo Zhenzhen, but after following her all these days, she still felt uncomfortable, and she couldn't let go of her hands and feet no matter what, and even her small action of serving tea could make Chu Miao tense her nerves.

Anshu Palace is not lively, at least. There is no excitement as Chu Miao imagined.

Zhao Guiren has been here for a few days, and the people next to him have not seen much except for the morning and dusk time.

In the past two days, Guo Zhenzhen seems to like to talk to Concubine Jing very much, and she sent Zhaoyuan to invite her, as soon as Concubine Jing came, the two of them would go to the opposite couch to talk, Guo Zhenzhen didn't stare at herself so stiffly, and Chu Miao could breathe a sigh of relief.

Separated by the bead curtain and the three small doors, it was obviously only about ten meters away, but Chu Miao couldn't hear the slightest bit of the conversation over there, and when she looked up, the smoke in the smoke over there was always curling.

However, Concubine Jing's eyes are always warm, and when she comes, she will come here to take a look and say a few words to her.

It's brief, but it's a sense of care and kindness.

Although Aunt Luo and Qingping have repeatedly emphasized that they should not get close to the harem concubines, and do not expect kindness to anyone, especially Concubine Jing, the Queen Mother dislikes it very much.

But Chu Miao just couldn't help but like to talk to Concubine Jing.

Zhao Yuan went to invite someone, she was somewhat looking forward to it, and even her nervous mood seemed to relax a lot.

Approaching the Queen Mother's birthday, Guo Zhenzhen's reason was not too reluctant, saying that she understood her coming from Dongshu, so as not to have to know what the Queen Mother liked, so she discussed with her and worked hard for her to come to Anxuan Palace a few more times.

Jiang Wan had no reason to refuse, and she had no intention of refusing from the beginning.

She really hadn't been to Anshu Palace before, but she had seen it several times inside and out in the past few days, and she was even familiar with it.

As soon as she entered the door, she turned her head to look for Chu Miao's figure, and when she saw that she was still alone and frowned at the account book, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

There is such a thing as a ledger, and you can't see anything when you look at the numbers that are recorded.

Not to mention what she learned, she took a look at it when she came two days ago, these are the account books of the previous two years, and the amount is very different from today, and the recording method is very different from today, this kind of meticulous thing has to be started, but Guo Zhenzhen obviously does not have such a will.

As soon as she glanced over there, Chu Miao raised her eyes as if she knew she was coming.

Jiang Wan smiled at her, seeing the light in Chu Miao's eyes, she seemed to be looking forward to talking to her in the past, and was about to go over there when Guo Zhenzhen stretched out her hand and grabbed her.

She glanced at Chu Miao with a cold expression, and the smile on Chu Miao's face immediately subsided a lot, her eyes dodged, and finally lowered her head and clenched the handkerchief in her hand.

Jiang Wan looked sideways at Guo Zhenzhen: "Concubine Chun is also here, let's come over and talk together." ”

Chu Miao may not be able to say why she doesn't like Guo Zhenzhen, but Jiang Wan knows that she is afraid that Guo Zhenzhen will look at her gaze like the tip of a knife.

Chu Miao, who just entered the palace, although she is a pawn of the Queen Mother, is still a person like a blank slate, Jiang Wan looks at her, she is also a girl with her own ideas in her heart, the only thing she can do is to give her a little warmth and kindness in this dangerous palace, maybe it can't help her, and it is impossible to change her fate that she has to go forward.

But Jiang Wan looked forward to the day in the future, even if it was just a moment, a moment of despair or collapse, Chu Miao could remember that there was once such a person in this palace who also smiled with her gently and said a few words to her.

In this indulgent and suffocating court, there is a little solace and respite.

Obviously, her efforts were not in vain, the temperature between the hearts and the hearts could be felt, at least when Chu Miao saw her, there was light in her eyes, and she would smile at her, even if Qingping's face standing behind her was no longer good-looking, Chu Miao still did not hide her simple thoughts.

After that, I'm afraid I won't be able to see such a good smile.

Jiang Wan felt sorry, so she subconsciously spoke, wanting Chu Miao to come and sit with her for a while.

Guo Zhenzhen's gaze was taken from Chu Miao, and when it fell on Jiang Wan's face, she immediately let go of her hand and walked to the other side: "Concubine Chun, look at the account book, it's time to concentrate, let's not interrupt her, Concubine Jing, come and sit." ”

Jiang Wan glanced at Chu Miao again, she really didn't look up again, I don't know if she heard Guo Zhenzhen's words.

"Yesterday I told you that there was a blood jade coral in my hand, I originally thought it was very good, it was already settled, but Concubine Qing likes that thing, I heard that I gave it to you last night, Baba came to me and made a lot of noise, her temperament is like that, because of some trivial things earlier, and I was awkward for several days, and now I am reaching out to me, I naturally can't refuse, but you must not think too much in your heart, she is so arrogant, not deliberately to get along with you, don't be unhappy in your heart, Otherwise, it would be my good intentions to do bad things. Guo Zhenzhen led Jiang Wan to sit down, and just poured her a glass of water, and then talked about it.

Guo Zhenzhen is bent on arranging a 'good thing' for Jiang Wan so as not to be embarrassed by the Queen Mother at the banquet, everyone knows that Qi Ying loves Concubine Jing, she is so generous, like the style of the 'main palace', Jiang Wan naturally follows her, listen to what she wants to do, in fact, the good things that Song Yujiao brought from Dongshu are not good, she doesn't need Guo Zhenzhen much' Kind almsgiving', before the ban was lifted, the congratulatory gift for the Queen Mother had already been chosen, so whether it was true or not, whether it was true or not, Concubine Qing suddenly intercepted this matter, it was just a pleasure for Jiang Wan: "The thing belongs to the concubine, and whoever the concubine is willing to give it to, it should be." ”

Guo Zhenzhen hooked the corners of her lips, and Jiang Wan's answer seemed to be expected, she raised her eyes and said softly: "You have always been a good character, and you don't often compete with others, speaking of which, when you first entered the palace, I was busy with the affairs of Jingxian and the filial piety queen and couldn't take care of it, and it is inevitable that the people below will not be thoughtful in doing things, but it seems that we are not so close, sister, you are now more valued and favored by the emperor, backed by Dongshu, and will inevitably be a close confidant by the emperor's side in the future, we have been together for a long time, I hope that you can often come to my palace to sit." , every time I let Zhao Yuan invite, others still let me take care of the shelf. ”

The words of Empress Jingxian Xiao came out of Guo Zhenzhen's mouth, which made Jiang Wan feel strange.

She stared at Guo Zhenzhen's eyes, barely thought about it, pretended to be curious and blurted out: "I heard a few words from the palace people, the concubine and Empress Jingxian Xiao have a very good relationship, and she is the most trusted person around the first queen, I haven't been in Dajin for a long time, but I have never heard of the first queen's evil disease, how could someone who could fight well in the early years go like that?" ”

Jing Yue stood aside, startled by Jiang Wan's bold temptation, she really looked like Song Yujiao who didn't know anything at this moment, talking about her own affairs calmly and with a little curiosity, following the olive branch thrown by Guo Zhenzhen and dropping some wary questions, it seemed very natural, Jing Yue's eyes moved from Jiang Wan's face to Guo Zhenzhen's face, the two looked at each other, like a firelight collision, compared to Jiang Wan's ease, Guo Zhenzhen's face stiffened for a moment and then smiled, and the cold color in her eyes became a little heavy.

"Who knows." Guo Zhenzhen sighed lightly, as if she was really heartbroken and regretful, "It's no wonder that I didn't find out earlier that Niangniang seemed to have a knot, and she was busy with harem chores all day long." ”

After that, she raised her hand and gently wiped the tears in the corners of her eyes, and said seriously: "It's just that my sister doesn't want to mention Empress Jingxian Xiao in front of the emperor, it doesn't matter if you talk to me, the emperor remembers the queen, and sees that it is only better in the past few days. ”

Jiang Wan raised her eyebrows slightly invisibly.

If this is really changed to Song Yujiao, I am afraid that I will be by Guo Zhenzhen's soft shells one after another.

first secretly poked and prodded her to instigate Concubine Qing to deliberately go against her, and now she is secretly sarcastic that her favor is somewhat similar to the former queen, but her attitude is very good, and her tone is sincere.

The Queen Mother's birthday Guo Zhenzhen is arranged in all aspects, and she attaches great importance to it, and now she has more and more contradictions and disputes with the Queen Mother.

Jiang Wan could see Guo Zhenzhen's subtle little expression clearly, because she was too familiar, so even what kind of impatience and irritability she was doing, and what kind of tone hid deception and lies, Jiang Wan could tell them all clearly.

It's as if people have been reborn, and shrewdness and intelligence have been layered on top of each other.

Guo Zhenzhen didn't continue, the topic returned to choosing a birthday gift for the Queen Mother, just as Concubine Blood Jade Coral Qing was going, Jiang Wan told Guo Zhenzhen that she was prepared and didn't need to bother anymore.

Guo Zhenzhen was very happy after hearing it, and said that the birthday is to be lively, as long as the Queen Mother is happy, everyone's heart can swallow half of it back to their stomachs this year.

With this joy, Guo Zhenzhen also seemed to think of Concubine Chun, who was still reading the account book silently over there, and looked at the sky outside, and she was sure to leave both of them to eat in her palace.

Guo Zhenzhen pulled Jiang Wan's wrist, looking intimate, but the strength in her hand was very strong, as if she was afraid that Jiang Wan would run away, and the smile on her face looked a little sharp: "I have an excellent specialty dish in the small kitchen here, and Concubine Chun has been tired for a day, so I have to wait for the meal to be passed back when I go back, so it's better to use it here with me, didn't you say that you still want to talk to Concubine Chun?" ”

Jiang Wan glanced back at Chu Miao, who had already listened to Xingyue, who had walked quickly, talk about the meal.

She seemed to be very happy, stood up suddenly, and looked at Jiang Wan with bright eyes.

A little unbearable, Jiang Wan took a deep breath, thinking that there should be no harm in thinking that there are so many people, so she nodded and responded: "The concubine's specialty dishes are naturally to be tasted, but I don't know what kind of strange food it is?" ”

Guo Zhenzhen pursed her lips and laughed: "It's just a fish." ”

·

Tao Yuan has been imprisoned in a deserted wing in the backyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

When he first arrived, he planned to bite his tongue as soon as they untied the contents of their mouths, and even if they couldn't die, they would be completely speechless, so that they would not have a chance to interrogate themselves at all.

That was the first time Tao Yuan saw Jiang Yu.

In other words, through the screen set up in advance, I saw the hazy figure of the legendary prime minister and heard the voice of the prime minister.

He was mentally prepared, but he didn't get a chance to speak.

Jiang Yu didn't plan to give him a chance to speak at all.

At that time, when this situation was laid out, Jiang Ying was already sure that it would inevitably be Guo Zhenzhen's people who took the bait.

This is a tacit understanding between herself and herself, and there is no need to tell others, because she is confident that she can get enough evidence to support herself.

At first, she had this idea and really suspected the head of the Guo family, because Jingyue had told her that Jiang Wan was reborn when her body was not buried in the imperial tomb, and Zhao Guiren told her that Qi Yan's death might be related to Guo Zhenzhen on the first two days when she was asked by Jiang Wan to serve in the Meixi Palace.

It was these words of Zhao Guiren that triggered all the suspicions and verifications after that.

Jiang Wan and she will accept the words of Zhao Guiren, also because Zhao Guiren has been with Guo Zhenzhen for a long time, and his family is even pulled up by Guo Kun, it can be said that the honor and disgrace of Zhao Guiren's mother's family are all maintained on Guo Kun's words.

Therefore, Zhao Guiren must be attached to Guo Zhenzhen's side, and to be able to gain Guo Zhenzhen's trust for many years, Zhao Guiren is naturally delicate and cautious.

She wouldn't find Jingyue to say such uncertain words for no reason, the only reason why the death of the former queen was close to the first queen's chief palace maid was that the Zhao nobles already had fear and rebellion against Guo Zhenzhen.

Jiang Wan's death stimulated Zhao Guiren, why was she so stimulated that she was so afraid? must be because of following Guo Zhenzhen's side, more or less knowing what Guo Zhenzhen has done to the queen.

She is afraid that she will live by Guo Zhenzhen's side for too long, and once she stands at the pinnacle of power, she will mercilessly remove her time bomb and her mother's family.

In order to protect herself, and even more so to prevent trouble, when Zhao Guiren took this step, she had already conveyed her antipathy to Jiang Ying.

The palace of the noble Zhao is close to the Meixi Palace, and it will inevitably be Guo Zhenzhen's eyes to monitor the favored concubine.

The flaws deliberately exposed by Qi Ying and Jiang Tingye are for these eyes.

The only person who will get the news is Guo Zhenzhen, and the only person who can send out the action is Guo Zhenzhen.

So the first time he saw Tao Yuan, Jiang Yu only said one sentence: "If you die, the virtuous concubine is in danger." ”

She didn't ask Tao Yuan anything, because she knew that the person in front of her wouldn't say anything, she just wanted him to live willingly.

Tao Yuan did not make any extreme moves after hearing this, which also reflected that Jiang Yu's guess was correct.

He willingly did things for Guo Zhenzhen, not only because she was his master, but also because he had a different kind of affection for Guo Zhenzhen.

As long as a person has feelings and moves his heart, he will never be as decisive as a dead soldier.

If he has weaknesses and concerns, he will definitely have desires and selfishness.

Goodbye today, although he breathed a sigh of relief, he lost a lot of weight.

This is the second time he has seen Jiang Ying, Tao Yuan didn't expect that so long would pass, Jiang Yuan and they were more patient than he imagined.

Jiang Yu sat opposite him, still through the screen, and said softly, "Tao Yuan." ”

"Or, should I call you Guo Yuan?"

Tao Yuan's eyes widened suddenly, unable to believe what he had heard.

There was no response inside, and Jiang Yu didn't wait for him to speak.

Her voice was very soft, but it made Tao Yuan tremble unconsciously: "I'm going to talk to you next, but between two people need capital, otherwise they can only choose passively, do you think, do you have chips to use?" ”
