"That's nature." Ji Linghai asked, "What is the matter with my father-in-law's visit today?" ”

"It's a little bit of a thing." Ding Zhou paused: "Does the chief manager know the Deng Cairen of Wanmo Pavilion?" ”

"Deng Cairen? You know, I'm going to lock her up. Ji Linghai said as he poured some hot tea for Ding Zhou.

"Although she is confined and confined to her subordinates, her palace people can get out of Wanmo Pavilion, no, a palace maid just came to Yingxue Pavilion and begged Yao Meiren to help her, but fortunately I stopped her."

"Is there such a thing?" Ji Linghai asked.

Ding Zhou nodded, "Fortunately, I stopped it, if the emperor is inside, it will be a big deal!" Dare to beat people in the palace, isn't it looking for death? ”

"That's right, that's right, I confined people to avoid this kind of beating from happening again, but I don't want Deng Cairen to be idle for a moment!"

Ding Zhou smiled and motioned to Ji Linghai not to be angry, "Although she is a palace maid, she hasn't seen Yao Meiren, don't worry about it first." ”

"What did she say?"

Ding Zhou thought about it for a while, "I said that I would let Yao Meiren intercede with the emperor to let her out, and also said that if it is beneficial, I will share Yao Meiren, do you think it is interesting?" Yao Meiren is so favored now, can she be used to give benefits? ”

Ji Linghai was amused when he heard this, and raised his finger to point at Ding Zhou, "You, you, your mouth is really poisonous!" ”

Ding Zhou also smiled, "Okay, Manager Ji, there is still something to do in Yingxue Pavilion, I have to leave first, you can watch and deal with this matter." ”

Ji Linghai asked Ding Zhou, who was sent by the little eunuch, to return to Yingxue Pavilion, and happened to meet Xiao Meiren's sedan chair on the way, and the two were polite and walked over.

Deng Cairen sent his palace maid to Yingxue Pavilion to find Yao Chuxi, thinking that the emperor had forbidden her, and said that he would let Yao Chuxi help her intercede in front of the emperor, and said that he would give her benefits.

What's ridiculous is that the palace maid was directly stopped by Ding Zhou, and she didn't even let the courtyard gate in, and she blocked back with two sentences, and then Han Shanggong blasted out directly.

It's not that they deliberately hid it from the rain, but there were guests in the house at the time, so they couldn't make a big deal about it.

Ji Linghai saw that the matter was getting more and more serious, and no matter what he was afraid of, he was afraid that he would go to the emperor, so he had to rectify it.

He took his apprentice to Wanmo Pavilion, took Deng Cairen away, and imprisoned her in Yanyang Pavilion on the grounds of making other people's ears pure.

Yanyang Pavilion is Bai Baolin's residence. She used to live in Lianchun Pavilion with Chen Cairen, and later Chen Cairen was strangled to death, and she was an insider, so Ji Linghai assigned her to live in Yanyang Pavilion, firstly, to prevent Bai Baolin from making a big trouble, and secondly, to be quiet in the back garden.

The trouble between Ban Cainu and Deng Cairen is getting bigger and bigger, even if it doesn't make trouble, it is inevitable that there will be estrangement, and they won't be able to live together anyway.

At this time, Ji Linghai had to consider who to let move out.

Although Ban Cainu did a lot of things wrong, she didn't bother Yao Chuxi anyway, unlike Deng Cairen, who couldn't find her position.

can only let Deng Cairen move away, Ji Linghai will do what he says, and take her away directly despite her shouting.

Look closely, she still has a shoe left in the temple, probably left by Fang just struggled too much.

After another three days, a guest came to Yingxue Pavilion.

This person is Yao Chuxi has seen, Jiang Zhaoyi of Yihexuan.

It is not right to say that these two people have never been in contact, Jiang Zhaoyi once spoke to Jiang Liu in front of the gate of Ningshou Palace, and asked him to tell Yao Chuxi that he was free to sit in the Summer Palace.

Jiang Liu didn't take that seriously, and forgot about it when he entered the door of Yingxue Pavilion, and Yao Chuxi just listened to it as gossip, and didn't take it seriously at all, where did he remember what he said about going to the Summer Palace.

If it's really lovely, forget it, the two have only seen each other two or three times, and they haven't said a word, so why do they have to go to her to sit in this cold day? There is something wrong with what she said.

But today, since people are here, they definitely don't pretend to be confused and can hide, they always have to go out to meet.

Han Shanggong entertained Jiang Zhaoyi to sit in the front room, and Yao Chuxi hurriedly got busy in the house.

It's not that she's still lying down after three days of growth, but that she's not too comfortable today, and she's rested in the house all morning.

The rain came to serve her with a glass of warm water, and changed her clothes.

When Jiang Zhaoyi saw Yao Chuxi come out, she also got up.

"The concubine asked Jiang Zhaoyi to say goodbye."

"They're all sisters, what's polite?" Jiang Zhaoyi raised her feet two steps, stood still and took a closer look at this Yao beauty.

If she was carefully dressed up last time when Lin Jieyu and Concubine De celebrated their birthdays, then this time she was not dressed up at all.

Her hair was not tied up in any sideburns, but was tied loosely, with a simple hairpin stuck behind her head. She wore only a hairpin of mutton fat jade on her head, and two short tassels hung down, lazily drooping on her head.

Looking at her face carefully, she didn't apply anything, her eyebrows didn't look like they were outlined, and even the earrings were plain pearl earrings.

Dressed in a light cyan long cotton robe, others looked short and cystic, but she was surprisingly pleasing to the eye, making her tall and stylish.

Jiang Zhaoyi remembered that she also had such a long cotton robe, but it was always uncomfortable to wear it on herself. She is obviously not as short as Yao Meiren, and she is not fatter than her, but she is not as pleasing to the eye.

She only put on a cyan gown outside the cotton robe, and the short front and back gown looked particularly good on her, and the two pieces of fabric were on both sides of her legs, which looked simple and generous.

Yao Chuxi noticed that her gaze stopped on her for a long time, she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, and coughed lightly, "I should have gone to see my sister a long time ago, sister, don't be angry." ”

Jiang Zhaoyi also noticed her gaze, and quickly sat back on the side couch, "What did my sister say?" ”

Yao Chuxi was supported by the falling rain and sat down on the low couch. Luoyu brought a thin quilt and put it on Yao Chuxi's lap.

"Sister, is this uncomfortable? Afraid of the cold, right? ”

Yao Chuxi nodded, "It's not that I'm afraid of cold, it's possible that the first few fevers fell to the root of the disease." ”

Jiang Zhaoyi also smiled and said, "That sister has to be well maintained, don't catch a cold." ”

She looked at Yao Chuxi again, to be honest, this beauty is a real beauty, she is not exaggerating at all, and she can't say with a clear conscience that she is better than her.

"Last time I saw my sister's little father-in-law in front of the gate of Ningshou Palace, I wanted to let my sister sit at my sister's place, I feel that our sisters are quite fateful, and I really can't wait, my sister is here."

"It's my sister's, it's wrong." Yao Chuxi smiled lightly, "I've been a little tired lately, and I blame my sister for being lazy." ”

"How can you blame my sister?" Jiang Zhaoyi had a smile on her face, as if she was flattering Yao Chuxi and said, "My sister can be regarded as the first grace in the palace now, so she naturally has to serve the emperor and take care of the emperor for the sisters in the palace, and the hardships are naturally not something that others can understand." ”

Yao Chuxi heard the underlying meaning of her words, avoided the main point and replied, "There's nothing to work hard, the emperor is not a child, it's just that he occasionally takes the time to come to Yingxue Pavilion." ”

Jiang Zhaoyi smiled again, "My sister is really favored now, and others can't share a little favor." ”

Yao Chuxi can't answer this, what should he say? Say you're not favored? When it reaches the emperor, it will inevitably make him think about it. Say you're favored? In less than an afternoon, her Yao Chuxi's reputation would stink in the palace.

Luo Xia came in with the dim sum made in the tea room, put it on the square table in front of Jiang Zhaoyi, and served another cup of tea.

Yao Chuxi took over the conversation and said, "Look at my sister, how ignorant she is, she has been chatting for so long, and she hasn't served a cup of tea yet." ”

Jiang Zhaoyi said politely, "Where, my sister, the palace people here are all sensible, I think that the little father-in-law is good, and at a glance, I know that it is my sister that you restrain well." ”

At this time, Luoxia poured tea for her, so she took a cup and sniffed it first.

"It doesn't smell like the tea you usually drink, but what did my sister add?"

"I didn't add anything, I like to drink fragrant tablets, and I put some dried flowers in it, so it is extra fragrant to drink, if my sister likes it for a while, let the palace people bring some back to my sister."

Jiang Zhaoyi agreed with a smile.

She didn't sit for a while before leaving Yingxue Pavilion, and when she went out, she turned around and took a closer look at Yao Chuxi.

She was a little uncomfortable today, so she looked a little haggard, but it didn't delay her beauty at all, even if she didn't wear makeup or dress, she could definitely be noticed at a glance.

On the way back to the Summer Palace, Jiang Zhaoyi didn't say a word, holding her forehead with one hand and gently resting the other on her leg.

She couldn't figure out why the emperor favored her so little and for so little time. When the queen was there before, she didn't think so much in her heart, she just thought that the queen was favored by means of competition, and she was not favored because the queen harmed her.

But seeing Yao Meiren this time completely overturned her previous conjecture.

Yao Meiren is not like a person competing for favor, on the contrary, there is something on her body that cannot be seen or touched, but you can feel it when you touch her. Jiang Zhaoyi felt it, but couldn't find any words to describe it, gentle? Kindness? Be quiet? Virtuous? She rubbed her temples slightly, feeling that none of these words could be described.

It's not that she thinks she's good when she meets Yao Chuxi alone this time, it's just that she wants to know where she lost, or that she found a point where the emperor favors Yao Chuxi.

There are many people in the palace who imitate Yao Chuxi's dress, from the color of clothes and beaded jewelry, to the walking posture and eating taste, all of which have been investigated.

Jiang Zhaoyi also paid special attention to what Yao Chuxi ate at Lin Jieyu's birthday banquet, but she didn't seem to like what to eat very much, so she was only concerned about the mixed soup in front of her. After Jiang Zhaoyi returned to the Summer Palace from Juning Palace, she specially asked for assorted soup in the dining room, but after going back and drinking a bowl, she didn't taste anything, but felt that the clear soup was not so good.

But how did she know that Yao Chuxi had successfully deviated from the emperor's taste, and even the emperor liked something, if she knew it, she would not have to drink it all day long?
