The courtyard of the cold palace was quiet, the pear blossoms looked unusually pale in the moonlight, and after the woman walked in, she came to a dilapidated room, and said angrily to the waiter lying on the bed: "Fu Qingxi, one of the show girls in the same batch this time is named Lan Ke, who has been favored by His Majesty, you have to help me get rid of her." ”

As soon as the words fell, the waiter lying on the bed slowly sat up, got up and put on his shoes and said: "If Concubine Ning wants to restore her former glory, she must get rid of the show girl who threatens you, but the slave is staying in the cold palace, and it is inconvenient to do things for Concubine Ning." ”

As he spoke, he looked up at the man under the black cloak.

Suddenly, the man's hand holding the hat stiffened slightly, and then he lifted the hat, revealing his true face.

Under the black cloak is a woman with fair skin and good looks, but she is no longer as immature as other show girls, she is one of the concubines who was purged by His Majesty three years ago, Wen Xiuyan!

If it weren't for Su University's Snickers Insulation Xiuyan, she has been giving gifts to the Queen Mother for the past three years and befriending the Queen Mother, and she would not be in the quota of show girls this time.

I don't know what method Wen Xiuyan used, but she has always maintained her young and beautiful appearance.

But judging from the state of her eyes, she is always not as young as before, just because Wen Xiuyan understands that she can't afford to spend time, and she has imitated Shang Kelan for so many years, as long as Your Majesty sees her, it is only a matter of time before she is canonized as the queen.

However, Wen Xiuyan never thought that a woman named Lan Ke would be killed halfway through, ruining her good deeds!

Fu Qingxi said this, he just wanted to leave, and besides, he was also an ambitious guy, and there was nothing wrong with being in his own camp.

Yes, Wen Xiuyan did not hesitate, but said to Fu Qingxi happily: "Yes, I will get you out of the cold palace tomorrow, I can let you be an errand in the Internal Affairs Mansion, but you have to get rid of Lan Ke for me!" ”

Fu Qingxi's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said to Wen Xiuyan with a smile: "This is natural, it's late at night, Concubine Ning will go back first, although the good news of waiting for the slave is that it is still easy to let a person die in the pond of the imperial garden by accident." ”

Seeing that he said it easily, Wen Xiuyan breathed a sigh of relief, and her eyes flickered: In this way, there is no need for her to do it herself, and His Majesty will not be able to find her at that time.

"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you, remember to get rid of Lan Ke for me, and other show girls who threaten me, besides, you will wait to go to the Internal Affairs Office tomorrow."

Wen Xiuyan explained to Fu Qingxi, but what neither of them expected was that Shang Kelan and Lan Ke were actually the same person.

The next day, in Chuxiu Palace, the show girls dressed up very exquisitely after freshening up, and they all came to the courtyard to talk to each other.

Yesterday, the show girl Lan Ke was so unlucky, she was chosen by His Majesty to sleep and did not return overnight, after the news spread in Chuxiu Palace, almost everyone was discussing her.

Wen Xiuyan didn't get involved, because she was the one who was isolated, Wen Xiuyan's age was much worse than them, and her appearance was not outstanding, and the show girls wouldn't be stupid enough to befriend her, after all, her family background was not good among the show girls.

At this time, the female official Yang in green clothes walked in with a serious expression, holding a scroll of holy decrees in her hand.

This decree does not seem to be used by His Majesty, but seems to have been written by the Queen Mother.

For a while, the girls in the courtyard gradually stopped their voices, got up and saluted Lady Yang: "Lady Yang." ”

Female official Yang nodded in return, and after taking them all to stand, female official Yang said: "The results of this draft have not yet come out, and the palace will give you a reply in five days, and the slave maid will come to tell you the show girls at the behest of the queen mother, please go back to the house first and wait for the good news, and the slave and maid will come to visit one by one with the results after five days." ”

As soon as these words came out, the crowd suddenly boiled.

"How so? We've never heard of going home and waiting for the results! ”

"It's like, according to convention, aren't they all made us wait for the results in the palace?"

This will made it a little difficult for everyone to accept, after all, if they stayed in the palace, they would still have a chance to get His Majesty's favor, in case they had a chance encounter with His Majesty or something, wouldn't it be better? A thousand books

If they were to be sent home, it would prove that their hope of remaining in the palace would be greatly reduced.

Female official Yang looked at everyone indifferently, and when their voices gradually became quieter, she said: "Everyone, please be calm, the will of the Queen Mother cannot be disobeyed, please go home and wait for the results." ”

She has always been business-oriented and never listens to complaints from others.

Sure enough, after Lady Yang's words were finished, the faces of these show girls suddenly became even more ugly.

But because this holy decree was issued by the Queen Mother, they had no reason not to accept it.

So, after the show girls finished complaining, they left the palace safely under the arrangement of Lady Yang according to their will and returned home.

At this time, the temple of nourishing the heart.

When it was almost time, Shang Kelan slowly opened her eyes and woke up.

She felt that her body was very sore, and she didn't know how many times Jin Yantang wanted her again last night, but when she thought of Jin Yantang's unconditional trust in her, Shang Kelan's heart warmed.

As if sensing the movement of the person on the bed, Shang Kelan had just woken up, and Gardenia's voice sounded outside the veil: "Girl, the slave is waiting for you to wash." ”

After she said that, she waved her hand outside, and a group of palace maids rushed in.

With hot tubs and ornate costumes in their hands, Gardenia uncovered the veil and hung it, then bent down to put on Shang Kelan's shoes and helped her to her feet.

This service surprised Shang Kelan, after all, Gardenia was still cold to her yesterday.

Glancing at the clothes on the tray again, they were all the purple and styles she used to love.

So, Shang Kelan asked Gardenia with some puzzlement: "Aunt Gardenia, why did you send me this purple dress today, doesn't it mean that only the queen mother in the palace can wear this purple dress?" ”

What Gardenia said to her yesterday, Shang Kelan still feels vivid.

Gardenia's expression remained unchanged, and only after someone washed Shang Kelan did she reply: "Miss Lan doesn't have to call the slave maid aunt in the future, just call the slave maid's name, in addition, Your Majesty has explained that Miss Lan doesn't have to go back to Chuxiu Palace, just live in the Heart Cultivation Palace, during this period, the slave and maid will take care of Miss Lan's daily life and diet, and Miss Lan can walk around in the harem at will." ”

I didn't expect that I was really unrestricted in this harem, and Gardenia was also businesslike.

After listening to Gardenia's words, she hooked her lips and smiled, and said to Gardenia: "Okay, then Aunt Gardenia will take care of it in the next few days." ”

Judging by her current age, Gardenia is older than her.

The palace maid helped Shang Kelan to get up and changed her clothes behind the screen.

Gardenia stood outside the screen waiting for Shang Kelan, who could be seen from the silhouette on the screen, Shang Kelan's figure was very good, not too slender and fleshless, but the waist could be held in a suffrage.

"Alright, Aunt Gardenia, please take me to meet the little prince."

As soon as the words fell, Shang Kelan got dressed and walked out from behind the screen.

Gardenia looked at it when she heard the sound, but she couldn't help but be stunned in place!
