Mu Biwei took the stacked cui, Shi Shiran followed behind the peach branch into the hall, but saw that there was a woman in Chinese clothes in the main hall in addition to He's, about seventeen or eighteen years old, beautiful appearance, the whole person looked round and jade, black hair, combed the extremely complicated four-ring Wangxian bun, and swayed the beads of the Qingluan, and obliquely inserted a peony flower that is rare at this moment, the peony flower is like the size of a sea bowl, spraying fragrant and spouting, opening just right, the color is delicate, it is actually a treasure royal clothes yellow.

There was only a small gap between this woman and He, although they sat side by side, their faces were calm and their chins were slightly raised, but they were quite arrogant, and He's demeanor was actually modest.

Seeing this, Mu Biwei was stunned, He Shi had already spoken, and his attitude was actually very gentle, and said, "Mu Qingyi is here?" It just so happened that Zhaoxun Niangniang also came to Pingle Palace to enjoy the plum, and you saw Zhaoxun Niangniang first! ”

It turned out to be Ouyang Zhaoxun, Mu Bi smiled slightly, the corner of his eyes swept to Diecui, and his expression froze, and he stepped forward and saluted: "The slave maid Mu has seen Zhaoxun Niangniang, and when she first entered the palace, she didn't know the nobles, and she hoped that Niangniang would forgive her." She said these words clearly, especially when she called herself a slave, she had a calm attitude, and there was no reluctance to displeasure, Ouyang just confiscated the "Frost Tianting Picture", and she also felt disgusted with her by the instigation of the former Ke Shi, and now she clearly revealed her displeasure.

Ouyang was about to speak, but saw Mu Biwei saluting to He again, greeting etiquette as ordinary Tsing Yi, without showing any shame, and even glanced at the palace maid standing beside Ouyang, and said tentatively: "This ......"

"This is Shao Qingyi in the palace, you can just see each other in peace." Ouyang said lightly.

Shao Qingyi stepped forward to greet Mu Biwei, and retreated behind Ouyang's family, Ouyang glanced at He's family, and said lukewarmly to Mu Biwei: "Mu Qingyi knows the rules very well!" She deliberately bit the word "rules", that is, she secretly stabbed Mu Biwei's official daughter, and now she is ashamed of calling herself a slave to others, which is really a loss of self-esteem.

But seeing that Mu Biwei heard this, she saluted with a smile on her face, and then continued: "Zhaoxun Niangniang's praise slave maid is really ashamed, where do slaves and maids know what when they enter the palace?" It is all the kindness of the nobles, even if the slave and maid have any rudeness, but they do not care about the slave and maid. ”

Ouyang's slave frowned even more tightly when she heard her voice, and her tone became colder: "Although it has only been a few days since Mu Qingyi entered the palace, he not only knows the rules very well, but also is very good at talking, no wonder General Mu Xiao was promoted so quickly!" ”

This is equivalent to saying that Mu Bichuan's official position was earned for him by his sister on the pillow, He Shi covered his mouth with his sleeve, and answered with a chuckle: "Sister Ouyang, the concubine heard that General Mu Xiao also fought bravely to kill the enemy when he was at the border pass!" I think I have some real skills. ”

"If you have real skills, you should really be willing to fight bravely to kill the enemy." Ouyang said disdainfully, "How can I lose Xuelan Pass, an important town in the northwest of Liang?" How could the innocent people in the pass die tragically at the hands of Rouran? Xue Lan Guan Po, as a guard, not only was he unscathed, but even the only heir by his side was safely relieved to Yedu, which shows that Mu Qi and Mu Bichuan's true skills may have fallen on the retreat, right? ”

He Yingying smiled, her face was gentle, but her eyes seemed to have the intention of relieving hatred, she didn't say anything like this, but she was venting in front of the palace maid, and she offered a portrait of Mu Biwei from the Mu family and asked Ji Shen to draw up the edict, she knew that even if someone could say these words clearly, it couldn't be herself - Ji Shen is a master who takes people by color, and he may not be unaware of the open and secret battles between the palace concubines.

But this doesn't mean that Ji Shen is really a fool.

Although the He family only had to enter the palace for more than a year, he was mixed from the last scattered lover to the first person in the concubine position, and even favored only under Sun Guifei, in addition to his own young beauty, he relied on his deep understanding of Ji Shen's temperament and knew when to do what - Ji Shen didn't care about the concubines competing for favor, but this didn't mean that he didn't care about the battle in the harem to any extent, at least He understood one thing, that is, this monarch was very disgusted to be discouraged!

When He was favored, his position was still very low, Tang Longhui was very dissatisfied with her sleeping in succession, so he instructed Neske to deduct many shares of He's, but later He inadvertently said when he cried to Ji Shen, saying that it was because of Tang's that even if he loved Ji Shen very much, he didn't dare to serve anymore, which made Ji Shen furious, regardless of the night, and summoned Tang to the small courtyard where He would live on the spot, and scolded her to kneel for more than an hour, or Zuo Zhaoyi and Sun Guifei rushed to intercede when they heard the news before taking Tang away, Because of this incident, the Tang family didn't dare to deduct He's things again, but every time they met, they always made each other unhappy......

At that time, Ji Shen always went to Yuntai Palace six or seven times a month!

It can be seen that Ji Shen likes the new and hates the old, from his own experience, He knows that if Ji Shen has a new favorite, he will immediately become an old man, even if he does not fall out of favor immediately, it is best not to rashly go against the new favorite, otherwise, how did Tang lose face before, and he may not be able to fall into the same fate.

This is also the reason why she endured the blood in her heart and pretended to be virtuous about Mu Biwei's entry into the palace - Ji Shen didn't care if she really forgave Mu Biwei or pretended, the problem was that before he lost interest in Mu Biwei, he didn't like to be disturbed by others. This point, after Tang's kneeling, everyone in the palace knew it.

For the concubines who completely relied on Ji Shen's favor to obtain glory and wealth, this has even become an unwritten rule in the palace - this is also the reason why Mu Biwei entered the palace for a few days, and the concubines in the palace did not contact Mu Biwei except for Tang Longhui, who was tempted by Sun Guifei's order - but the Ouyang family is different.

This concubine Zhaoxun, who was ordained by the Empress Dowager herself, was not only born in the palace concubine, but was only under Zuo Zhaoyi Qu's in the palace concubine, but also the niece of the Empress Dowager Gao, her mother Mrs. Gao is the cousin of the Empress Dowager Gao, although she is a concubine, but her maternal grandfather is the same father as the national abbot.

At the beginning, the Empress Dowager Gao's plan was to establish the Qu family as the queen, and the Gao family, which is now the most powerful of the two major families in Yedu, was already Ji Shen's foreign family, in order not to make Ji Shen's backyard catch fire, the Empress Dowager Gao did not choose an outstanding concubine from the Gao family to enter the palace, lest the Qu family be difficult to control, and she was not good at partiality, but in order to maintain the relationship between the Gao family and the royal family, she finally chose the daughter of her uncle's concubine, Mrs. Gao is actually inconspicuous in her mother's family, although her husband Ouyang Mengli is the eldest son in the Ouyang family's big house, But he is only the eldest son, Ouyang Mengli's biological mother is humble, and after giving birth to him, he was given away by his mother-in-law, and Mrs. Gao herself is just a concubine girl, so she is just living a life in the Yedu family.
