In order to uphold the harem taught by the Queen Mother to be evenly wet with rain and dew, and not to be unfair, the emperor took turns to stay at other ladies in the palace after sleeping that day.

Among them, there is also the Youlan Pavilion of the new nobleman Xu Yourong, Gu Changzai and Wei Changzai also went to the place once, but it was just for a meal, so they left in a hurry with the thought that there were still twists and turns to deal with.

It's just that Shangguan Ruyi's place is indeed as lonely as ever, which makes her a joke after tea and dinner in this deep palace, but she has her own cousin Concubine Xian to support her, and no one dares to do anything to her.

It's just that the emperor didn't promote Xu Yourong's position after going to Youlan Pavilion, but only rewarded some silk and jewelry, but after serving, Xu Yourong's status in the palace has also improved, and the palace maids and fathers-in-law are also polite and respectful when they see her.

After all, among the new nobles, except for the Yin nobles of Wangchun Pavilion, who are favored everywhere, only Rong agreed to sleep, which shows that the emperor still admires her.

Although the emperor no longer stays in Wangchun Pavilion, he still maintains his promise to accompany her in the morning after the morning court, although he leaves after lunch every day, without staying too long, but for Yin Xiaoxi, it is enough.

Since Xu Yourong came that day, it has been a long time since she came to Wangchun Pavilion, and she said before that she would often come to Wangchun Pavilion to eat.

Yin Xiaoxi had doubts in his heart, so he took Xiaocui to Youlan Pavilion by playing chess.

As soon as he entered Youlan Pavilion, he smelled the smell of Chinese medicine, Yin Xiaoxi saw Xiaofang in the courtyard, and was about to come forward to ask, but was stopped by Xu Yourong.

"Why does my sister have time to come over today?" Xu Yourong walked from the hall, and although he tried to stay normal, he could still see that his legs seemed to be abnormal.

Xiao Fang also looked like she wanted to say something.

Yin Xiaoxi walked up, "I saw that you hadn't come over for a long time, so I brought the chessboard over and asked my sister to teach me how to play chess." ”

"Okay, I'm missing my sister too." Saying that, Xu Yourong ordered someone to bring a round table and chairs to put them in the courtyard, and the two began to play chess.

How can Yin Xiaoxi know chess, this is what Xu Yourong taught her privately when she was in the Moon Wheel Palace before.

In fact, Xu Yourong also had doubts, she had long heard that the eldest lady in General Yin's mansion was proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she knew at a glance that Yin Xiaoxi didn't even know the most basic chess skills, but she didn't expose it, but just hinted at what she should do.

Slowly, Yin Xiaoxi also knew a little bit about this game of Go, but she just wanted to compete with Xu Yourong, which was her opponent.

After three games, Yin Xiaoxi lost the game, but he also improved and gained something in each game.

Seeing that the hour was not early, Yin Xiaoxi casually found an excuse to leave.

"I'll come back to you another day, and I'm sure I'll win back today's face."

Xu Yourong smiled, "Okay, then my sister is waiting." It's just that her smile seems to hide a trace of other emotions in Yin Xiaoxi's eyes, she smiles a little reluctantly, and her hands have to rub her knees from time to time, looking very sad.

If it weren't for her discomfort, Yin Xiaoxi planned to stay in Youlan Pavilion all day.

As soon as he stepped out of Youlan Pavilion, he ordered Xiao Cui to quietly go back and call Xiao Fang out to ask what was going on.

Xiao Cui also saw Xu Yourong's abnormality, quietly slipped back, and within a quarter of an hour, took Xiao Fang to a remote and secluded place to see Yin Xiaoxi.

Seeing Yin Xiaoxi, Xiao Fang's appearance of wanting to speak in the courtyard resurfaced on her face.

Yin Xiaoxi said straight to the point, "What's wrong with Rong'er?" Has something happened in the past few days? ”

Xiaocui hesitated for a moment, thinking that her master and Yin Guiren had always been good friends, and that she had treated her subordinates so well before, she should not have murdered her master, so she told Yin Xiaoxi everything about the matter.

It turned out that two days ago, Xu Yourong went to the Queen Mother to ask for peace on the second day, and met Liu Concubine on the way back to Youlan Pavilion, although there was no head-on conflict, but for some reason Liu Concubine made things difficult for her in many ways, took her to a remote and quiet place, and asked her to kneel in place for three hours before she could get up and leave on the grounds that she was disrespectful to herself.

When she left, Xiaofang also heard Concubine Liu say to the grandmother on the side, "I can't do anything to Yin Guiren, can't I still pinch you to agree!" ”

Speaking of this, Yin Xiaoxi realized that it was Concubine Liu who used Xu Yourong to spread her dissatisfaction and jealousy on Xu Yourong.

Now that she is being favored, she can't do anything to herself, so she can only take Xu Yourong under the knife.

It's just that I pity Rong'er, obviously I didn't do anything wrong, but I have to be implicated by myself, adding to this groundless accusation.

Yin Xiaoxi asked, "What's the matter with the strong medicinal smell in your hall?" ”

Xiaofang touched the tears in the corners of her eyes and sobbed a few times, "How can the master have suffered this kind of grievance, he knelt for three hours, his knees were swollen, his skin was broken, and he left injuries, so he quietly invited the imperial doctor to come and see, and there are a lot of internal and external medicines taken every day, and the injuries on his knees are still very slow, and I don't know if there will be sequelae in the future." ”

Yin Xiaoxi's willow eyebrows were twisted together, and her jade hand was clenched into a fist, no wonder she had been watching Rong Er secretly rub her knees from time to time, it seemed that it was really injured.

This Liu Concubine is really hateful.

After saying that, he ordered Xiaofang to go back quietly, not to mention that he had already told her, since Xu Yourong didn't want her to know, she pretended not to know.

As for Concubine Liu, she will always remember this matter, and wait for the time to come, and then there will be grievances and revenge.

When I returned to Wangchun Pavilion, I couldn't calm down for a long time, thinking of the hunting that the emperor mentioned a few days ago, and thinking about it in my heart.

On that day, the emperor mentioned that there would be an annual hunt in a few days, when the emperor would take the concubines of the harem to the hunting ground, and all the princes and princes and ministers would also go.

The emperor asked her if she was willing to go, and she refused at the time, thinking about this kind of thing, tired and boring, she must be sweating when she went, and wearing this layer of clothes, where can she show it, she didn't plan to go at all.

Now she is full of interest, and she wants to make Concubine Liu make a fool of herself in front of everyone during the hunt.

Although I don't know if this Yin Xiaoxi can ride in ancient times, but in modern times, she grew up in the vast grasslands of Inner Mongolia, and she is very proficient in the art of riding and archery, but she changed her words to tell the emperor to hunt, and she has to plan and plan how to say it.

In the evening, I asked Xiaocui to inquire about where the emperor stayed in the palace today, and Xiaocui came back and said that it was Fangfei Palace.

Yin Xiaoxi hurriedly sent someone to bring a set of riding clothes to change into, and waited on the emperor's way to Fangfei Palace.

On the way to Fangfei Palace, you have to pass through Xingyun Pavilion, Yin Xiaoxi changed into riding clothes and waited with Xiaocui in Xingyun Pavilion early, and heard the unique bell on the emperor's sedan chair from afar, Yin Xiaoxi took the bow and arrow and Xiaocui began to practice archery.

The sound of laughter came from Xingyun Pavilion, and the emperor listened outside Xingyun Pavilion for a while, and recognized that it was Yin Xiaoxi's voice, so he ordered someone to put down the sedan chair and quietly walked in.

Xingyun Pavilion is an idle temple, because it is temporarily uninhabited, it is rarely cleaned and organized, and the courtyard is overgrown with weeds.

The emperor ordered Gonggong Mo to silence him, not to let anyone report, and tiptoed to the gate of the palace not far from Yin Xiaoxi.

I saw Yin Xiaoxi in a military uniform holding a bow and arrow and aiming at the arrow target in a good manner, his posture was quite standard, and he seemed to be very good at it.

"Huh"

The arrow flew out, but it did not even hit the edge of the target as the emperor expected, but stuck into the dirt not far away.
