How nice it was back then......

Chi Qing sighed in her heart, but Mingli couldn't say anything, she became like this now, the saddest thing was actually her master, a good person, living in conspiracy and calculations all day long, even if she calculated others, she was always afraid that people would come back and calculate her, or her calculations, one day, there was nothing to hide, and they were all exposed in front of people, just like the matter of the Chaoyang Palace this time.

Once targeted by the queen's mother, she has to rein in, but even if she reins in, it is always something she has done, can she still run?

Chi Qing shook his head and sighed: "The slave maid arranged for someone to inquire before, but Niangniang, the slave still has to persuade you to say a few words, this kind of thing, occasionally, it's nothing, let's be careful, and we're not afraid to give it to people and pass it to the emperor's ears, but you always have to think of some other way, if you always have to inquire about the emperor's whereabouts......"

Concubine Rong was stunned and waved her hand: "I know what you mean, and I know it in my heart, running in front of the emperor to flatter and invite favor is originally a last resort, if there is a choice, how can I be willing to approach the emperor like this?" ”

She also came from a simple and innocent world, when she first entered the palace, she saw the emperor for the first time, and she only felt that he was handsome, although he was the son of heaven, but from that day on, he was all her reliance, and she was also secretly happy in her heart.

There are a lot of dirty thoughts, she doesn't want to move to him, whether it's flattery, or inviting pets, she doesn't think that this behavior is self-surrendering, but she just thinks that that person is different and shouldn't be treated like this.

However, to this day, she can't even keep her own original intention.

Chi Qing saw that her face was ugly, and there was obvious sadness and sadness on her face, where did she dare to say anything else, lest she provoke her sadness even more, so she hurriedly lowered her head and answered, and left in a hurry without mentioning it.

After about a cup of tea, when Chi Qing went and returned, Concubine Rong had already redressed and was radiant.

As soon as she opened the curtain and came to the door, Concubine Rong was drawing the pen in her hand: "Inquired?" ”

Chi Qing went into the house in response, lowered his voice again, and waited until he entered her side, and then reached out for her to take the fish hairpin that she had selected and taken out in the makeup, and put it on the hairpin for her: "The emperor went to the lotus pond at this time, I heard that it was the previous dynasty that was entangled in government affairs, the emperor was very upset these days, and now he is catching up with the lotus flowers. ”

Lotus pond......

Concubine Rong smiled and looked down at the moon white palace dress on her body: "Then I think that my moon white is very appropriate, probably because I have a good relationship with the emperor, he feels upset, but when he sees such a clean color, he thinks I am even more gentle." The lotus pond is red and green, the color is bright, and the most lacking thing is my moon white. ”

The lotus pond in the imperial garden was specially built by Xiao Chenyu.

In fact, when the first emperor was there, he didn't love luxury things, and he never coveted pleasure and wealth, but only focused on government affairs, so he naturally had no time to be distracted and get these things in the palace.

However, when Xiao Chenyu was in power, the abolished king was still there, and the queen mother was dedicated to supporting the abolished king, staring at him everywhere, and he had the intention to make the queen mother think that he was weak and incompetent, so that the abolished king became more and more carried away.

To say that, it is really common for the royal family to start construction, but there is a liquid pool in this palace, which is enough for him to enjoy, but he is still insufficient.

When I first dug this lotus pond, I don't know how much work it took, and the water still has to be brought from the liquid pond, so we have to dig the canal first, otherwise after the construction starts, it will be even more difficult to divert the water source.

At the very beginning, the adults of the Ministry of Industry gave him several excerpts and advised him, asking him to think twice, there is really no need to waste time and effort for such a lotus pond.

However, Xiao Chenyu didn't listen to anything, but just gave an order and ordered the Ministry of Industry to complete the project within half a year.

Later, the queen mother saw all these in her eyes, and she really relaxed her vigilance, and the abolished king became more and more proud outside the palace, and gradually revealed her hidden secrets, telling Xiao Chenyu to hold his handles and shortcomings, so that when the army rose up later, it was defeated, resulting in a different head.

Since then, the Queen Mother has never been to this lotus pond, but Xiao Chenyu is very fond of the lotus pond here, and often comes here to take a turn, as for the deep meaning, anyone with a discerning eye can also see it.

When Concubine Rong took Chi Qing and them to this end, she didn't see Xiao Chenyu's Luan, and when she was close to the lotus pond, Concubine Rong didn't see Xiao Chenyu's figure.

So she frowned and turned back to look at Chi Qing: "Who did you ask for news?" ”

Chi Qing said that he was the person in front of the emperor, but he didn't say it in detail, but Concubine Rong knew it in her heart, it was their own person, who could speak, and knew where the emperor was going, so she spent a lot of effort to arrange this eyeliner.

Although from the beginning, she didn't plan to calculate Xiao Chenyu anything, but when she and her family chose to embark on a road of fighting for power, there were some arrangements, so she had to plan early, even if she had never used this to inquire about Xiao Chenyu's whereabouts before, but after all, she had to have her own people in front of the emperor, and when she had to do so, she would be able to speak, so that her eyes would not be black, and she would not know anything about the news in front of the emperor.

Concubine Rong still had a straight face, but the color of blame gradually faded.

"What are you doing here?" Xiao Chenyu's gloomy voice suddenly came from behind her, startling Concubine Rong.

Concubine Rong was frightened, but she could also hear that this was Xiao Chenyu's voice, and hurriedly turned around and squatted down with him to salute: "The concubine is idle in the palace, thinking that the lotus flowers in the imperial garden are blooming, so she went to the lotus pond to enjoy the lotus. ”

Xiao Chenyu sneered quietly, and motioned Concubine Rong to get up and reply: "I remember, your favorite thing in the past is not the lotus, but the yang flower, and the day you entered the palace is not short, it is rare to see you come out to enjoy the flowers, every year after the poplar flowers fall, you can't be interested in these flowers and plants, even the flower room sends flowers to your palace, you are also indifferent, why did you suddenly remember today, come to enjoy the lotus?" ”

Concubine Rong had a look on her face: "The emperor still remembers the preferences of the concubines, the concubines haven't seen the emperor for a long time, and they thought that the emperor had forgotten the concubines a long time ago." ”

Her stunned was just a moment, and in the blink of an eye, she had already put on a smiling face.

Concubine Rong is still young in the end, although her complexion is not as good as that of Concubine Shu, she is also beautiful and cute.

It's just that this face fell in Xiao Chenyu's eyes at this time, and he couldn't like it anyway.

Thinking about the things her father and brother did outside the palace, and then thinking about the methods she used in the palace, Xiao Chenyu only felt that this woman was hateful.

Concubine Rong didn't say anything when she saw him, and her smile slowly froze: "The emperor doesn't seem to want to see his concubines." ”

As she spoke, she pursed her lips, almost muttering, with a coquettish meaning: "That concubine might as well retire, the province will hinder your eyes in front of the emperor." ”

"It's okay, you can retire-" As soon as Xiao Chenyu spoke, his voice was full of coldness, "Speaking of which, there is really such a coincidence in this world, I haven't entered the harem for a long time, but today I was interested in coming to enjoy the lotus, and I met you here, Concubine Rong, go back, stay in your palace, think about where to go, when to meet whom, when to do something." ”

Concubine Rong's face changed greatly, her body stiffened, and she was stunned for a while, she couldn't say anything, and she forgot to do anything.

When she came back to her senses, her knees were weak again, and she knelt straight at Xiao Chenyu's feet: "The concubine doesn't know where she said the wrong thing, which made you unhappy, please forgive me." ”

"Fusheng, help Concubine Rong get up." Xiao Chenyu took three or two steps back in a row, didn't even bother to look down at her, and only called Fusheng, "You personally send Concubine Rong back to the palace, Mingci Palace will be fined for three months, and Concubine Rong will be grounded for half a month, to spread my will, you don't have to tell the queen again." The queen has been worried about Concubine Dong and Concubine Shu recently, so don't bother the queen about Concubine Rong's affairs. ”

Fusheng should be a yes, and sure enough, he bent down and stepped forward to help Concubine Rong get up, which can be said to be supporting, but in fact, it was more like clamping her, almost pulling and pleasing her, inviting her away from the lotus pond, refusing to let go all the way, and sending her back to Mingci Palace, and then passed Xiao Chenyu's message, told the six palaces, and punished Mingci Palace up and down.

When Su Lingyue knew about this, she was holding this medical skill, and it was Zhilan who hurriedly pushed the door in from outside, which alarmed her.

This time, she hid in the study to read, Zhilan knew her habits, and she didn't like anyone to disturb her, so every time she was reading, Zhilan would explain it, don't go to the study to talk back and forth, if there is something very important, Zhilan went back and forth to her by herself, that is.

Seeing Zhilan enter the door at this time, Su Ling sighed happily, it seems that there is no benefit to being a queen, I don't know how many things there are every day, waiting for the lord of the six palaces to come forward to deal with it, it is really a day of quiet and leisure for her.

She sighed: "What's going on in the palace again?" ”

Zhilan was stunned: "How does Niangniang know?" ”

"You have also served with me for so long, and you have also experienced the affairs of Concubine Shu, and I have experienced my night visit to Cining Palace, and when you encounter something, you are still so breathless, and your expression is panicked, I only look at you, and I also know that something happened in this palace, how do you say I know?" Su Lingyue asked, and at the same time buckled the medical skills with her backhand, she raised her eyelids to look at Zhilan, "Is it not good to be a concubine?" ”

At present, in this palace, as far as Su Lingyue is concerned, the only things that can be called a big deal are the concubines of Hanzhang Palace and the queen mother of Cining Palace.

However, Zhilan shook her head at her: "It's Concubine Rong." ”

Concubine Rong?

Su Lingyue raised her eyebrows, came to her senses, and sat up straighter: "What did Concubine Rong do again?" ”

It seems that she is already determined, and the matter of Concubine Shu is Concubine Rong's handwriting, but because there is no evidence, she never mentions it in front of people, but when she talks to Zhilan in private, she is no longer so polite, and she asks directly.

Zhilan pursed her lips slightly: "Gonggong Fu just passed on the emperor's edict, Concubine Rong was grounded for half a month, and Mingci Palace was fined for half a year. ”
