For a long time in the future, there was no news in the Ganquan Palace that the Empress Dowager Gao planned to promote Mu Biwei, and even Ji Shen was teased to summon Mu Biwei and He a lot less often, so naturally it was difficult to think of the position, and occasionally he thought of it, and Sun Guifei and Tang Longhui always had a way to distract him.

At the end of June, the pond of the wind lotus courtyard is already a red flower and green leaves, when the wind passes, the lotus leaves in the pond are turned, it is very good-looking, there is a pot of ice in the flower hall of the pool, although it is a hot time, but the flower hall is made into a shade, Mu Bi peeled a grape slightly, stretched out his finger and swept up a bamboo curtain to look outside, and said with a smile: "It is a good scenery here." ”

"The name Wind Lotus Courtyard is based on this pool." Ah Shan speculated, "Now the flowers are blooming beautifully, and after a while, there will be fresh lotus pods to eat." ”

Mu Biwei picked up the handkerchief in her hand and wiped the grape juice that had just been dyed above her fingers, and said, "I see that there will be no shortage of lotus pods, in addition to eating raw and sending some everywhere, it is cheapest to make fresh lotus seed soup." ”

The two were discussing the lotus flowers that are still in full bloom, when they heard a burst of footsteps outside, but they came in with a red face, at this time it was just after noon, the hottest time, in the past few months, the clothes have been very well-behaved and stable, seeing this, Ah Shan handed over the handkerchief and said: "There is no important thing here, girl, what are you doing in such a hurry?" Why do you have to go out and run around in the big sun? He told her to pour herself herbal tea and drink it.

"Slave and maid, Aunt Xie." After drinking two sips of herbal tea, he breathed a sigh of relief, thanked Ah Shan first, and then said, "The slave maid told Tsing Yi this morning that she went to visit her former companion Dielu, but she heard a message and wanted to come back quickly to tell Tsing Yi." ”

Mu Biwei picked up a grape hand and paused, then raised his head and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"It was said that the Queen Mother invited several girls from the Gao family into the palace, and a girl also brought her sister-in-law who had not passed through the door to show the Queen Mother, but she didn't want to be met by Her Majesty......" said this, and her voice was almost inaudible all of a sudden, "Your Majesty...... I fancy the girl who is already married! ”

Mu Biwei heard this, her brows furrowed slightly, and she looked at Ah Shan, who was also stunned, and said, "You say it carefully!" ”

"Yes." Answering the robe, after thinking about it carefully, he continued, "Tsing Yi and my aunt know that when the slave maid entered the palace, it was a superimposed generation, and that one of the old and the slave maid was not a confidant, but it was also good, she was not selected to Jique Palace, but was assigned by the internal division in the Lanlin Palace to manage the sprinkling of a side hall, Lanlin Palace is close to Ganquan Palace, because the slave maid sometimes sends some food from Tsing Yi or her aunt, etc., by the way, talk to her a few words, only then the slave and maid went over and talked to her for a while, originally looking at the sun, I plan to leave after the afternoon, but I don't want to, I am sitting on the cloister with Dielu to enjoy the cold, and I listen to some noise from the Ganquan Palace. ”

Speaking of this, she paused to calm her breath, and replied, "When the slave maid saw that this was the case, she pushed her to go to the palace gate of Lanlin Palace to have a look, as for the slave maid herself, in the end, she was a person in Tsing Yi, so she didn't go over, Dielu looked at it for a while, and came back to tell the slave maid, saying that she asked the little maid nearby, and the Tao was that the holy car suddenly arrived at Ganquan Palace, and happened to catch up with the queen mother to summon the girl, and a few girls have not seen Your Majesty, so they shouted in a panic." ”

She emphasized, "I heard that the girl was called by His Majesty to ask and brought to the Heyi Hall together!" ”

Mu Biwei and Ah Shan glanced at each other again, the Empress Dowager Gao is Ji Shen's biological mother, the Empress Dowager attaches great importance to the family, and has always been very proud of her own family, the first emperor Ruizong remembered the King of Jiqu when the Gao family has always been on his side, coupled with the support between the Empress Dowager Gao, the Gao family is not thin to the Gao family, so the girls from the Gao family have met the children of the Empress Dowager Gao many times, including Ji Shen.

Most of them are Gao family girls, there are a few who have not seen Ji Shen, it can be seen that it is either a concubine, or a distant branch, Mu Biwei is not surprised that the Empress Dowager Gao suddenly summoned these many girls who entered the palace for the first time, He's one-handed serial desperate scheme, and the Empress Dowager Gao also couldn't care about her previous insistence, and she had to focus on supporting the daughter of the main family to enter the palace.

After all, the betrayal of a He family not only caused the Empress Dowager Gao to suffer heavy losses, but the only one among the concubines from the family who had never fallen out of favor Ouyang lost it, not to mention, the He family fell to Sun Guifei, which is equivalent to increasing the bargaining chips of the concubines from humble backgrounds.

It's just that the Empress Dowager Gao's requirements are too high, and it is rare for Sun Guifei to be so stunning, and beauties such as He Shi and Mu Biwei are not just able to catch one casually, otherwise Empress Dowager Gao personally presided over Ji Shen's first selection, and when she plans to stand up, when she sees Sun Guifei's great favor, will she still be stingy with a few beautiful women to share Ji Shen's heart?

But that time when he entered the palace, Zuo Zhaoyi was because of his background, and the Ouyang family was definitely selected according to Ji Shen's preferences, and the next Cui Lierong had long planned to retire in the palace, not to mention, Xin Shiwei was even ridiculed several times to kill herself...... It's really that the family couldn't choose a beautiful and suitable girl at that time.

- Even if there is, unless it is that it is not valued or a certain house happens to be in decline and needs to take advantage of this to take advantage of Ouyang Mengli, otherwise, I heard about Sun Guifei's posture of the country, and it made Ji Shen love to the point that even the queen mother can't help it, who is willing to send their daughter into the palace to spend their time in vain?

In these two days, it was Sun Guifei and his faction who looked at Ji Shen very closely these days, and even Nie Yuansheng's request to see him was a race against time to explain the matter and was sent away...... This time, the holy driver suddenly went to the Heyi Palace, and I don't know whose idea was which side of the calculation!

But since Ji Shen is in a group of nominal cousins, he has taken a fancy to his cousin's wife...... It can be seen that most of the people on Sun Guifei's side may not be able to block it, so she simply yin the queen mother.

Listen to the Wan Wan continued: "The slave and maid are strange when they hear this, although the slave and maid have not served in the Ganquan Palace, but in the palace in the past few years, they always know the habits of the masters everywhere, the Queen Mother is from a famous family, and she is the most disciplined, not to mention that although Your Majesty does not have to go through the permission of the Queen Mother to enter the Ganquan Palace, but the girl who can go to the Queen Mother to ask for peace must have been told in advance not to lose her manners, and His Majesty is handsome and upright, and it is not a bull head and horse face, that is, I have seen it, even the Queen Mother has seen it, How can you be afraid to make a noise? ”

Mu Biwei couldn't help but be impressed by her when she heard these words, and said approvingly: "You are becoming more and more shrewd, continue to speak." ”

"This is all taught by my aunt, otherwise how can I get so much with the qualifications of a slave?" Hearing this, his eyes lit up, but he was still humble, and then continued, "So the slave maid thinks that there must be twists and turns here, if it weren't for the nonsense of the little chamberlain in front of Lanlin Palace, it would be ...... The slave maid thought that the girl who made the noise was afraid that it was deliberate! ”

"Huh?"

"The slave maid thought, the slave maid was sent by Tsing Yi, so she hurriedly ran over from Lanlin Palace, and she also felt that the sun was too big, and her head was a little dizzy." He pursed his lips and smiled, "Under the big sun, the masters who are a little more sympathetic to the subordinates don't make people run outside, and the slave and maid just came in, doesn't my aunt feel sorry for the slave and maid?" The usual work of being a slave and maid beats hard in the end, but the girls are raised in the boudoir, and not everyone is the same as Tsing Yi...... Healthy! ”

She almost said her true thoughts, but fortunately she changed her words in the end, and saw Mu Bi smiling and groaning as if she didn't care, so she continued, "The girls came into the palace to visit the Queen Mother, it was before noon, the Queen Mother left lunch, and had the habit of taking a nap, it stands to reason that the girls should leave, of course, the Queen Mother is in good spirits today, and it is not for slaves and maids to continue to keep the girls for dinner, but ...... Under such a hot sun, who would be idle and walk around in the shade? Or at the gate of the palace? Originally, at this time, it was the red willow and green branches and leaves that were luxuriant, and His Majesty went to Ganquan Palace, naturally taking advantage of the emperor's chariot, even if someone was nearby, the emperor's chariot was now covered with shark silk to cover the heat! If the girl didn't scream, how could His Majesty notice? ”

Mu Bi bowed slightly, and Ah Shan said with a smile: "The jacket is really becoming more and more shrewd, but how do you know that the girl is not a girl from the Gao family, but the future sister-in-law of the girl from the Gao family?" ”

"The slave and maid listened to the little chamberlain, and His Majesty heard the screams and ordered to pass the people to the emperor, and the girl walked out with flowers and willows, and reported her surname when she saluted." Speaking of this, he hesitated for a moment, and said, "The girl said that her surname is Shen." ”

Sink?

Of course, there is more than one family surnamed Shen in Yedu, but he is qualified to marry the Gao family, and he can enter the palace with his future sister-in-law to meet the Empress Dowager Gao before he has passed the door, and there is only one Shen - Mu Biwei's grandmother Shen Taijun's maiden niece and granddaughter!

Hearing this, Mu Bi frowned slightly, and asked Ah Shan: "Do you remember the cousins of the Shen family?" ”

Ah Shan also looked hesitant: "This ...... The old lady still remembers, but the others haven't moved for many years, even though the girl took pictures when she was a child, but now that she has grown up, she looks different......"

Listening to it, he said on the side: "The slave maid gave the golden hairpin on her head to the little maid, and asked him about the appearance and behavior of the girl of the Shen family...... The little chamberlain whispered to the slave maid, saying that it looked like a demon was in tune. ”

"That shouldn't be the old lady's." Ah Shan immediately said, "The old Taijun's branch, although it is no longer the most prosperous one, but the teaching of children has always been the most rigorous, just look at the rules of the old Taijun to know, even if you are a concubine, it is impossible to teach to be watched by demons." ”

Mu Biwei thought the same thing in her heart...... The demon tunes, according to the Gao family's family to choose a daughter-in-law, how can anyone choose such a woman? And although the Shen family's momentum is weaker than that of the Gao and Qu families, in the final analysis, it is also a famous family that has been passed on for two or three dynasties, even for the sake of clan decency, it is impossible to teach a girl who is not worthy of everyone's demeanor!

This girl from the Shen family who suddenly appeared...... Could it be that it's not Shen Taijun's Shen? How did he get hired by the Gao family?

Not to mention that the Gao family still has the support of the Queen Mother of the Rule-abiding Family, even if there is no Queen Mother Gao, it is impossible to accept a girl from an ordinary family between the portals!
