And the heroic voice is matched with the slender figure and quite beautiful appearance of the palace woman, which makes the spring return look back at a big disobedience, although she does not know the specific identity of the person, but there is no doubt that it must be a certain concubine of the inner court, because she is made of gold Zhai bird pendant, and the skirt is also used bright yellow, which is a concubine or a princess can only wear the regulations, but several princesses have been photographed in the spring, but there is no impression of this woman, so it is judged that she should be one of the harem concubines of Emperor Hongfu.

Sure enough, I heard Mrs. Yi salute and said, "Xie Zhaoyi is healthy." ”

Chungui also followed the ceremony, she didn't stare at Xie Zhaoyi more, but with that subconscious glance, what she caught was the sorrow between Xie Zhaoyi's eyebrows, which made her depict a pair of slender and soft crescent eyebrows almost overwhelmed, it seems that there is indeed an extremely sad and depressed trouble that needs to ask Mrs. Yi for help, Chungui is very conscious, and decisively no longer stays in the eyesway for a long time, but because she has not gone far, Xie Zhaoyi really can't wait, and still heard a word about the privacy of others.

"Sister Yun, have you heard about the British Mansion? Why did they divorce their fourth sister? ”

The spring return sped up and hurried away from this matter of right and wrong.

Shu Niangzi can also get out of the hustle and bustle of the circle at this time, she has already left the spring to return here, so she stepped forward, and when she came over, she should have seen Mrs. Yi being pulled by Xie Zhaoyi to the mountain corridor behind the Guanghan Palace, so she smiled and quipped: "What a terrible thing to encounter, look at you like this, it seems that there is a ghost behind you." ”

There are no ghosts in the imperial city who dare to stay, and there is nothing terrible about the ghosts, what is terrible is these people who live in the imperial city.

Chungui didn't hide it from Shu Niangzi: "I'm having a cold conversation with Mrs. Yi, Xie Zhaoyi thinks that there is something urgent to discuss with Mrs. Yi, and it is inconvenient for me to listen to the secret secrets of the inner court, so I hurriedly avoided it, I don't want Xie Zhaoyi to be in a hurry, but I still heard it as if it was related to the British government." ”

Shu Niangzi said: "Xie Zhaoyi's mother is Mrs. Yi's aunt, and the two of them are cousins, as for the British Mansion...... Xie Zhaoyi's cousin is married to Cheng Rui, the grandson of the British Gongcheng Decision, who has been married for three years and has already had a pair of children, but now the British government is suddenly going to divorce Xie Niangzi, it is said that Xie Niangzi committed seven crimes, and the two families made a fuss about this matter, and it is reasonable for Xie Zhaoyi to be anxious. ”

"Xie Zhaoyi should have a very good friendship with Xie Niangzi, right?" Spring return said of course.

"It doesn't have to do with whether the friendship is good or not." Shu Niangzi sighed: "Xie Zhaoyi and Concubine Hui entered the palace in the same year, although there is also a princess under the knee, but the holy grace is far inferior to Concubine Hui, although her family is an official family, since her father's generation has more people who are idle in one official position, and the children behind are even less outstanding talents, her cousin can marry into the British government, it is already a good marriage, I don't want to make such a situation, if she is really abandoned, the daughter of the Xie family will be married or has been out of the cabinet, but she will bear the slander, Xie Zhaoyi is afraid that she will be implicated, In this deep palace, it is difficult for her to see her mother's family, and it is easy to look forward to meeting Mrs. Yi today, so she can only inquire about the news from Mrs. Yi and think of countermeasures. ”

After Shu Niangzi's explanation, Chun Gui somewhat understood why Xie Zhaoyi was anxious.

Women enter the palace and are elected as the concubines of the Son of Heaven, although it seems that although they are glorious and beautiful, not all harem concubines can be favored, without the favor of the emperor, they need to rely on the power of their mother's family, so that they will not be struggling in the harem court, but Xie Zhaoyi's mother's family is not good, and even if they will not be divorced because of their cousin

was thrown into the cold palace, but the situation in the future is even worse.

"Hui Hui has ever heard of the Cheng family of the British Mansion?" Shu Niangzi asked again.

"Not long ago, when my family had a banquet, the British duchess also brought the female relatives of the family to congratulate, and I heard my grandmother say that the British duke and grandfather were in the same year, and the title was given by the first emperor.

"Xie Siniang's father Cheng Fang, now serving as the political envoy of Jiangxi, Cheng Rui is Cheng Fang's eldest son, and now he is just a lifter, Cheng Fang deeply feels that the eldest son is insulting the family, but I heard that Cheng Rui and Xie Siniang have a very good relationship between husband and wife, and I have not heard that Cheng Rui has the bad behavior of those gentlemen, but his mother Mrs. Jiang......" Shu Niangzi seemed to consider her words before saying: "She is an extremely strict mother-in-law." ”

Chungui's mind immediately flashed a face with eyes on the Tianmen acupoint and nostrils facing the sky.

She was deeply impressed by this Mrs. Jiang, and she still remembered that at the reception that day, Mrs. Jiang snorted coldly at her and didn't even look at her, it turned out that this was Xie Siniang's mother-in-law?

"When Mother Shi said this, I remembered again that Mrs. Jiang did not let her daughter-in-law accompany her that day."

"Xie Siniang's youngest daughter was born not long ago, so it was really inconvenient to attend the banquet at first, and maybe there was already a fuss about abandonment at that time, of course Mrs. Jiang would not let her go with her."

"But the Duchess of England is a kind elder." Spring Returns.

"Not really." Shu Niangzi sighed again.

Chungui didn't know why he felt that Shu Niangzi was also worried, as if he was also troubled by the accident in the British government, but Chungui's impression was that the Shen family and the Xie family did not seem to have a relationship between relatives and friends, and Shu Niangzi would not be worried about his family's accident.

Although she was surprised, Shu Niangzi didn't intend to say more, and it was naturally difficult to ask questions when she returned to the spring, so Shu Niangzi diverted the topic.

"Since Xie Zhaoyi is at ease, the Queen Mother will have to summon us to the Guanghan Palace to talk after a while, her old man is actually the most impatient with the rules of pomp and etiquette, but after all, the emperor is present today to congratulate her birthday in person, and pomp is inevitable, the Queen Mother is afraid that she has already been bored and panicked, and she will have to carry forward her good skills for a while, and tell you a few more jokes and jokes to make the Queen Mother laugh, you don't have to be so restrained."

Chungui responded with a smile, and said: "Sergeant Ruan has also repeatedly told me that the Empress Dowager Shengde is an extremely benevolent elder, and her temperament is witty, and she teaches me not to be too formal, so it seems boring." ”

"Sergeant Ruan has served by the side of the Queen Mother for most of his life, and he is most familiar with the temperament of the Niangniang, I smell the incense on your body today, but I have the guidance of Sergeant Ruan?"

"Exactly, Sergeant Ruan told the method, not directly on the clothes incense, but to open a quiet room, first steam the incense cakes in the rice wok, and put a copper wire rack on the stove, the steamed incense cakes are placed on the shelf, half an inch away from the fire, slowly baked, so that the fragrance is quiet and does not have smoke, so the clothes are taken into the quiet room, put for half a day and naturally soaked in the fragrance, so that the fragrance of the clothes can appear more if there is nothing, Sergeant Ruan said that the Queen Mother does not like to smoke, the ordinary living place, only for the Buddha's hand to take its natural aroma, but at this time it is hot, if you don't use the fragrance of clothes at all, It was hard to hide the smell of sweat, so Sergeant Nguyen specially told me this method. ”

"Don't mention the word Khan." Shu Niangzi shook her head and said: "This season, you must also wear three layers inside and three layers outside, and you will feel bored when you hear the word sweat." ”

Chungui is very empathetic.

Entering the palace today to participate in the birthday of the Queen Mother, even if she has not yet received her fate, she does not need to wear the clothes of a life woman like Shu Niangzi and others, but it is inevitable that she will dress in formal dresses, covering several layers of clothes on a hot day, this taste is extremely "ecstasy".

"Fortunately, this is the West Garden, the banquet hall is located on Qionghua Island, witnessing how much this lake and mountains can cool off, when we have seen the Queen Mother, I went to ask for a favor, and Huihui also walked down the mountain corridor, under the foothills of the north of the island, there are sixty double-decker verandahs built along the water's edge, the princes and clansmen are drinking and talking in the verandah to the east, we are not afraid to meet them when we go west, and when we are tired, let the palace people serve two cold drinks, as long as a small few, sit on the upper verandah to blow the wind is not in vain."

Chun Guiguang felt overjoyed when she heard it, of course she didn't dare to wander around willfully, but she followed Shu Niangzi...... Even Uncle Zhao said that Shu Niangzi is very reliable, so you might as well go shopping together.

From the morning to the moment, I feel that the birthday is boring, but I must spend it early, and the remaining moments of time to be able to play freely are all surprises and worthwhile.

I really didn't have to wait long, Xiao Gong Ling came to summon Shu Niangzi and Chun Gui to see, Chun Gui had already heard Sergeant Ruan mention of the Xiao Gong Order, and knew that many methods of residing in the face were actually proficient in this master, and now when I saw the deity, I didn't believe that Xiao Gong Ling was already over sixty years old.

Xiao Gongling's face is like a silver plate, but it is completely different from Mrs. Jiang's wealth, there is no fat on her face, the outline is clearly visible, her eyebrows and eyes are not so beautiful and exquisite, her skin is not fair, there are a few light spots under the eyelids, which are not covered by thick powder, so they are exposed calmly, but it seems to add a bit of playful style, which sets off the eyebrows and eyes more and more.

At the age of more than sixty, only the corners of her eyes show wrinkles, but she does not show her age, which makes her look very kind.

The voice is also good, and the charm is long when speaking, with the meaning of an inexperienced woman.

In the shadow of her clothes and sideburns, her clothes are not conspicuous, but the feeling of returning to spring is very amazing.

If I am in my last years, I can still have one or two demeanors of Xiao Gongling, and I will be blind when I die!

Spring return deliberately looked at her posture when walking, step by step is quite steady, and the spine is straight, it is rare that she can not show the slightest stubbornness, people are like jade, it turns out to be this appearance.

"Envy, huh?" Shu Niangzi doesn't seem to care that her birthday is not really over yet, because when she is called to become the limelight, she can also chat with Chungui happily.

Spring return even jaw head.

"Xiao Gongling was originally the daughter of an official eunuch, and she invited herself to the palace as a female official, I talked to Gong Lingshen about it, and she bluntly said that the reason why she entered the palace was that she did not want to marry a woman in the house. The first emperor wanted to accept her as a concubine, she would rather die than obey, and bluntly said that she had a habit of evil men, the first emperor was furious and wanted to expel her from the court, but because of the mother's ...... Even at that time, Concubine Shen and Concubine Peng pleaded together. In the end, the first emperor only punished her as a palace slave, and it didn't take long for the first emperor to forget about it, and Niangniang transferred Xiao Gongling back to her side, she was trapped in the inner court all her life, but she lived more freely than anyone else, and we envy her and can't envy her persistence and honor and disgrace. ”

He didn't deliberately lower his voice when he said this, so Xiao Gongling turned around and smiled at Shu Niangzi again: "Gongren, this is ridiculing the concubine again, don't frighten Gu Niangzi." ”

Frightened......

Gu Niangzi took these two words seriously, and her admiration for Xiao Gongling instantly rose three feet.

Xiao Gongling and Feng Yuqi are really the same romantic characters!!
