Qilan Hall is in the southeast corner of Pingle Palace, out of the apse, first is a winding path, planted on both sides of the cypress that is not afraid of frost and snow, He invited Ouyang and Mu Bi to appreciate the plum, so early to make people sweep down the snow on the cypress tree, although the snow is still falling, but only a thin layer, looking at the emerald and white, it is eye-catching.

The green calyx plum that He mentioned was a little away from the Qilan Palace, but the Ouyang family didn't mention the chariot, so the group naturally walked over. He Shi looked at Mu Biwei, who was supporting him in a dignified manner, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and he chuckled: "Mu Qingyi doesn't have to worry, this palace is worried that the person carrying the chariot will slip his foot and hurt the body of Zhaoxun Niangniang's daughter, and he specially sent someone to come over and clean the road when it is not dawn, you see, the snow on the trees on both sides has been photographed, and the green salt has been sprinkled on the road, the snow cannot be accumulated, and the legs and feet of the palace are still neat, you just do it." ”

She is so caring, Mu Biwei's expression has not changed, and the hair of the stacked cui that followed with low eyebrows and eyes behind her is about to stand up, but she heard Mu Biwei just said lightly: "Ronghua Niangniang is bothered." ”

"Mu Qingyi has been very tired of serving His Majesty these days, and the palace does not dare to disturb at will, so as not to lose His Majesty's interest, so I took advantage of His Majesty's visit to the New Year's Hall to congratulate Sun Guifei and find you to talk." He pursed his lips and smiled, patted the back of her hand gently, and smiled generously and sincerely.

She didn't say anything about Xiao He Meiren but only mentioned Sun Guifei, Mu Bi frowned slightly, but said: "The slave maid heard from the people of Jique Palace that Your Majesty went to the New Year's Hall today to congratulate Xiao He Meimei's birthday?" ”

"A cheap. It's just a maid, and it's also worth your majesty to congratulate in person? He Shi's eyebrows did not move, still smiling, but what he said was not polite at all, and he said slightly, "But the concubine Niangniang's favor is known from top to bottom in this palace, if it weren't for the face of the noble concubine, where would Your Majesty remember her?" ”

"That's what Rong Hua Niangniang said." Mu Biwei didn't say much.

At the end of the path is a small lake, now it is a piece of ice, and there is a layer of snow on it, if it is not for the snow on the ice surface is also lower than the shore above, it looks like flat land, and on one side of the lake is a plum blossom forest, which will have a dark fragrance - a few branches of cinnabar plum and black plum are sparsely opened on this side of the lake, and the fragrance strikes people.

"The green calyx is in the innermost." He explained, "There is a pavilion in the middle of Meilin, and the palace has also been cleaned. ”

Mu Bi said lightly: "Rong Hua Niangniang has no last resort. ”

There is no last resort, these four words are used subtly, He just smiled, but the Ouyang family in front suddenly turned his head, a sneer appeared on his lips, and said: "Mu Qingyi seems to be very reluctant to serve Sister He?" But do you think Sister He's position is not high, and she has insulted you? ”

"Zhaoxun Niangniang said with a smile, since she is a female official, serving the nobles is her duty, how dare the slave and maid not want to? Besides, Ronghua Niangniang is smart and virtuous, the slave and maid serve closely, and she is overjoyed to be able to listen to her teachings, so why humiliate her? Mu Biwei replied quickly.

Seeing that she couldn't pick out the thorns in her answer, Ouyang snorted and said: "If you feel that you are unwilling to serve Sister He, then this palace doesn't mind asking Shao Qingyi to help Sister He, and you come over to serve this palace, this palace is a concubine Zhaoxun, and the close waiter has his own share of Tsing Yi, and he is at the same level as you, so it will not make you feel wronged!" ”

"If Zhaoxun Niangniang wants the slave to serve, the slave will naturally listen to the maid." Mu Biwei said calmly.

"The Mu family has produced military generals for generations, and the palace already knows that you are good, and you don't want to be so eloquent, so it's no wonder that Your Majesty wants to ask Mu Qi and Mu Bichuan to be reappointed as civil officials." Ouyang sneered.

Mu Biwei stared at her side face, and suddenly smiled: "Zhaoxun Niangniang, although the slave maid has just entered the palace, she also knows that the harem is not negotiable-Niangniang is carrying the former dynasty one sentence at a time, I am afraid that the person with ulterior motives will listen to it, and Yu Zhaoxun Niangniang's reputation for virtue will be hindered!" ”

"Mu Qingyi is very clever, but he actually knows how to mention the palace?" Ouyang's face sank suddenly!

Diecui was so frightened that she almost slipped her foot, and the peach leaf next to her immediately threw a mocking glance, but she heard Mu Bi reply with a slight smile: "Where is the slave worthy of mentioning Zhaoxun?" It's just that I heard that the queen mother of this dynasty has always been virtuous and knowledgeable, when the first emperor died, when he ascended the throne is only three out of ten, the first emperor's edict ordered the prime minister to regent until His Majesty tied his hair, and then the prime minister asked His Majesty to listen to the government, but the queen mother refused on the grounds that the harem was not allowed to interfere in politics, so the first emperor also praised the queen mother for her virtue and humility, and understood the righteousness - I heard that Zhaoxun Niangniang is the niece of the queen mother, and the slave thought that Zhaoxun Niangniang must also be a virtuous and humble person, and the queen mother is His Majesty's mother and biological mother, Since ancient times, when the young lord is in the court, it is common for the queen mother to hang the curtain, and the queen mother still abides by the rules of the palace and does not go beyond one step, not to mention that Zhaoxun Niangniang is not even a queen? ”

This was as if she had slapped Ouyang in the face directly, and Ouyang reacted quickly, she did not argue with Mu Biwei, but calmly instructed Shao Qingyi: "Go and get the bamboo chips, slap her mouth fiercely with the palace, and tell her what to say and what not to say!" ”

"Zhaoxun Niangniang, Tsing Yi she is just ......" Diecui tried to intercede, but only half a sentence was swept over by Mu Biwei and Ouyang's eyes, Mu Biwei sneered and said: "Speaking of which, slave maid and Shao Qingyi are indeed the same level, but what does slave maid say is also a person from Ji Que, what does it have to do with the Deyang Palace and Ronghua Niangniang in charge of Zhaoxun Niangniang, this Qilan Palace?" If the slave maid made a mistake, according to the rules of the palace, it should be sent to the Jique Palace to be handed over to the Fang Xianren of the Inner Division, Zhaoxun Niangniang is the concubine, so staring at the slave and maid is embarrassed by a small Qingyi, and she is not afraid of losing her identity at all, but she doesn't know that it is because the slave and maid are not allowed to Zhaoxun Niangniang's eyes, so how can the slave and maid be dissatisfied, or is it because Zhaoxun Niangniang is actually dissatisfied with the other sage, otherwise, it is clear that Fang Xianren should be in charge of the matter of disposing of the slave and maid, but Zhaoxun Niangniang is ahead of her everywhere? ”

Ouyang sneered and said, "You are a good debater? It's just that since you keep saying that you don't forget to call yourself a slave, and you just said that the so-called female officials are just slaves of nobles, what are you? This palace is dignified from the second grade to the concubine Zhaoxun, even if you are from Jique Palace, could it be that this palace can't even teach a lesson in serving people? ”

said and scolded Shaw Brothers: "Why don't you get the bamboo slices quickly?!" ”

The Shao family didn't expect Mu Biwei to endure all kinds of patience in the Qilan Palace before, but when he arrived here, he suddenly had a seizure, everyone in the palace knew that Ji Shen's head was good, don't look at Ouyang's high position and good birth, and he can be regarded as Ji Shen's cousin in terms of relationship, but this gentleman has always been a person who does not recognize people, and Sun Guifei almost spoiled the special room earlier, but Ji Shen didn't do two rounds of selection in a row to personally add people for himself? is that He Ronghua in front of him has still shared the favor from Tang Longhui and Sun Guifei, but Rao is like this, he can't even ask Mu Biwei to enter the palace - now Mu Biwei is getting Ji Shen's meaning, with Ouyang's position and relationship with the Queen Mother, it's nothing to humiliate her and embarrass her with words, but if she really hurts her, why wouldn't Tang Longhui's position be a concubine before? That Tang clan's favor is much more than this Ouyang's!

Shaw Clan was a little hesitant all of a sudden, but she also knew that if she said these words at this moment, it would be equivalent to destroying the prestige of the Ouyang Clan, so Ouyang Clan couldn't get off the stage and not say it, Mu Biwei was afraid that she would be even more arrogant, of course Shaw Clan would not do such a thing, she reminded in a low voice: "Why should Niangniang bother with a mere Tsing Yi at this outlet?" After blowing too much wind and headaches, I first went back to Qilan Hall with a cup of tea, and watched the slave teach this ignorant thing to the mother to be angry! ”

"Since Shao Qingyi knows that this is the outlet, why is he not afraid that the words will be too full of words and flash his tongue?" Mu Bi smiled slightly, and didn't give in an inch, "Does Shao Qingyi want to teach me a lesson to make Zhaoxun Niangniang angry?" But may I ask Shao Qingyi, what did I do to make Zhaoxun Niangniang angry? It's nothing more than seeing Zhaoxun Niangniang mentioning the affairs of the previous dynasty, but Shao Qingyi didn't say a word, for the sake of Zhaoxun Niangniang, so he rashly persuaded him, and those words were explained sentence by sentence to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother would not blame me! So it's just that Zhaoxun Niangniang didn't reward me, and she blamed me well, which is strange! ”

"Naturally, Zhaoxun Niangniang was born in a scholarly family, and Zhaoxun was personally chosen by the Queen Mother for Her Majesty, how could she be a person who doesn't know the rules?" Mu Biwei's eyes swept over the Shao family coldly, and said word by word, "So Zhaoxun Niangniang suddenly attacked me, isn't it Shao Qingyi's?" ”

Shao Brothers didn't expect that he was worried that Ouyang would annoy Ji Shen by rashly beating Mu Biwei in public, but this round dragged him into the water, and he sneered: "Mu Qingyi is really a good mouth!" It's just Mu Qingyi, the truth of this world is not opened by your family, you said that Zhaoxun Niangniang was in advance of the court, but what evidence is there? Such an empty mouth and white teeth said that Zhaoxun Niangniang interfered in politics, could it be that my mother's mother is kind-hearted, let you come to appreciate the plum together, you rotten conscience. Mother, but looking at the mother's sex and bullying, such a plain framing of the mother?! Even if the mother punishes you here, what will happen? You don't have to drag Fang Xianren to stop it, our mother has been in the palace for the past two years, how can Fang Xianren not know Niangniang's kindness?! ”

Diecui secretly screamed in her heart when she heard these words, and said in her heart, Shao Clan is looking at the people here who are Ouyang and He except for Mu Biwei, this is to oppress people with power, and directly rely on Ouyang's advance and frame Mu Biwei, she is worried that she doesn't know if Mu Biwei can deal with it, and she knows that she is clumsy, not to mention that she doesn't know what to say when she sees Ouyang Biwei's trouble, even if she thinks of something, she is afraid of disrupting Mu Biwei's response, so she has to bow her head and pray secretly.

Fortunately, Mu Biwei took the initiative to turn her face and was not completely unprepared, glanced at the Shao family, and sneered: "The so-called Tianli Zhaozhao, Qiankun Langlang, what did Zhaoxun Niangniang say, everyone here heard it......"

"What did Zhaoxun Niangniang say, did you hear it?" Shao Shi smiled contemptuously and asked the other waiters, and Tao Ye was the first to shake his head, gloating: "Back to Shao Qingyi, the slaves and maids haven't heard anything, and today I personally walked over to see the plum blossoms. Although Shao Qingyi helped, she also paid attention to her feet, and she didn't say anything along the way! ”

"Sister Taoye's words are right, Zhaoxun Niangniang is a concubine from the second grade, and the identity of the last female official is like a world of difference, even if Niangniang lifts Mu Qingyi, serves Rong Hua Niangniang in close quarters, and then goes, but Rong Hua Niangniang has always known etiquette, but she is a few steps behind, so what does Zhaoxun Niangniang want to say, where can Rong Mu Qingyi interject?" Another palace maid from Deyang Palace raised her sleeves to cover her mouth and smiled, her eyes were disdainful, and she said, "It's this Mu Qingyi, but after a long rest, I'm confused?" Why are you the only one who heard Zhaoxun Niangniang speak? ”

Tao Ye said with a smile: "Maybe Mu Qingyi has admired Zhaoxun Niangniang for a long time, this is thinking about talking to Zhaoxun Niangniang!" ”

"What is our mother's identity? When I entered the hall before, I looked at Ronghua Niangniang's sake, and asked her a few gossips, which was also to promote her, today Niangniang went to Ronghua Niangniang's appointment to appreciate the plum, isn't it to entertain Tsing Yi? Shaw sneered, "The so-called people go to high places, water flows to low places, Mu Qingyi wants to climb high branches in this palace is not unusual, but we have to brighten our eyes, our Niangniang is from a scholarly family and is a concubine, but it is not compared with those things that have no rules!" I hate the thing that stomps on the low and worships the high, and is shameless! Mu Qingyi admires our mother, but she also has to weigh her rank and identity in this palace, how can she be qualified to entangle her mother? ”

Diecui listened to their left and right sentences, and stepped on Mu Biwei with all her might, and was really annoyed in her heart, but Mu Biwei listened quietly, and her demeanor was no different from that of He Shi, who stood by, as if she didn't feel that she was being abused at all, and after Shao Shi finished speaking, she smiled and said, "Isn't this over?" Just from the Qilan Hall here, Zhaoxun Niangniang didn't say anything, the highest position here is Zhaoxun Niangniang, Niangniang doesn't speak, how dare the slaves and maids speak? So if no one speaks, how can you talk about offending the mother? I think it's too windy, and everyone can't hear it clearly! ”

Shaw and the others couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

After a while, Ouyang's face was obviously gloomy!
