"Wantao, the pearl powder I brought from Dongli is almost exhausted, you go to Shangzhen Bureau to see if there are any pearls from the East China Sea, if there are any, help me come over, and grind them into powder by the way."

Today's body is very lazy, Hua Mian has been basking in the sun for a long time, only to feel bored, after instructing Wantao, he called the snowball and walked out.

All the way to the flowers and willows, through the corridor through the courtyard, choose some sparsely populated paths to walk, unconsciously came to a deserted palace, the lintel is inscribed with a few strong gilt characters: Bamboo Heart Garden.

It turned out that he inadvertently came to the dormitory of Qianyuyu. She was wondering whether to go in and take a detour, but she saw that the snowball had unceremoniously scurried into the courtyard, and she had to chase it into the courtyard.

When a man and a dog broke into the world of Qianyuyu, she was fiddling with a newly planted plant with her back to the fragrance of the courtyard.

When she looked back at herself in the soft glow, Hua Mian felt that there was no color in the heavens and the earth that could hide her brilliance, not even the exotic colorful lily of the valley that had just been transplanted beside her, but could not share her attention to her.

Qianyu language, her beauty is difficult to describe in words, although she fell out of favor with the first emperor and lived here for more than ten years, she is still noble and graceful, and her beauty is peerless. The pain and pain didn't seem to be reflected in her, and she lived a relaxed and comfortable life.

She got up gracefully and smiled gently: "It's been a long time since a distinguished guest came, and I missed the welcome, and I still look at Niang Niang Haihan." ”

Hua Mian was stunned and smiled, worthy of being the most favored woman of the first emperor, she is indeed different, her beauty is not only in her skin, but also in her wisdom and clarity, which is a different temperament that exudes from the inside out.

Hua Mian stepped forward and said, "Does the concubine know who I am?" ”

"Don't you already know who I know you are?" She smiled lightly, and her heart skipped a beat.

"Hehe, the concubine is really smart." Hua Mian looked around and saw that the courtyard was full of all kinds of vegetables and exotic flowers, and she was very happy, "Can I come to you often to pick some vegetables and go back?" ”

"Absolutely. As long as you are not afraid of the emperor and the queen mother's blame. ”

"Why do they blame?"

"This is a cold palace, if you are not afraid of being involved with a former emperor's concubine, the door here is open for you at any time."

"Doesn't King Duan often come to see you? The emperor didn't blame him, and naturally he wouldn't blame me for being a little girl. "In fact, Hua Mian has always had a problem that is not clear, since Pei Gongcuo is so kind to Pei Yingshi's younger brother, how can he let his mother concubine remain in the cold palace?

Qianyu smiled and said, "You know the emperor very well? ”

Hua Mian thought about this question seriously, and finally came to the conclusion: "I can't talk about understanding." ”

"Then why are you so sure he won't blame you?"

"Feeling."

"Is it because he always tolerates and even indulges you on weekdays?"

"Huh?"

"Don't think I'm in the cold palace and don't know anything."

Hua Mian thought about it carefully and felt that Qianyu was right, it was precisely because she felt that Pei Gongcuo was tolerant enough to herself that she would have no fear.

Snowball rubbed at Qianyuyu's feet, wagging her tail and looking at her with a flattering look. Qianyuyu bent down to pick it up and said with a smile: "Your pet dog is very cute, and that bird with a crown on its head is also very interesting." ”

Hua Mian couldn't help but be stunned, but she changed her words and said, "It's just that they don't seem to be very friendly to Duanwang." ”

Hua Mian then remembered the attempted murder of the dog that day, and she smiled awkwardly: "It's because of my usual negligence in discipline that they will run around." I will be strict in the future. ”

Hearing this, the curvature of the corners of her lips widened more and more, and even her eyes were full of smiles.

At this moment, a eunuch sang and said, "King Duan has arrived—"

Hua Mian looked up and saw Pei Yingshi's clothes fluttering into the courtyard, and this pretentious posture provoked her to slander for a while.

Thinking about being taken advantage of by him yesterday, she said to Qianyu: "Since King Duan came to see the concubine, then I won't bother." ”

Without waiting for Qianyu's language to speak, Pei Yingshi's voice floated over with a bit of banter: "Could it be that this king is a poisonous snake and beast?" ”

When he approached, Hua Mian smiled and said, "The prince misunderstood, the concubine is just to leave some space for your mother and son to get along." ”

"That being the case, Concubine Burmese is not in the way here." Pei Yingshi stretched out her hand to tease the snowball in Qianyuyu's arms, causing the snowball to chase his finger and turn his head for a long time, "I heard that Niangniang's flower tea is a must, I wonder if this king has this mouthful?" ”

"Oh? Tea? Qianyu Yu looked at Hua Mian.

Hua Mian smiled and explained: "Mian'er likes to grow flowers to make tea since she was a child, but it is just her own personal preference, and she is not elegant, which makes the concubine smile." ”

"Then how about letting the mourning family taste your flower tea another day?"

"Myanmar has always carried some dried jasmine flowers with her, if the mother does not dislike it, Myanmar will soak it with the mother today to taste."

"Great." Qianyuyu turned to the maidservant behind her and said, "Yin'er, go boil some water." ”

"Yes." Yin'er retreated.

Hua Mian said as if unintentionally: "Why didn't King Duan ask the emperor to take the concubine to the palace?" It is also convenient to take care of it in this way, saving you from running to the cold palace twice in three days. ”

"It's the mourning family who doesn't want to leave the palace." Qianyu Yu smiled at Hua Mian, "You really have a delicate heart, no wonder ......" They all treat you differently.

Hua Mian didn't care about her words, and wondered, "Why?" ”

Qianyuyu moved her gaze to Qingzhu in the courtyard: "First, this is the will of the first emperor, and the mourning family is unwilling to disobey; Second, this is the garden built by the first emperor for the mourning family when the mourning family first entered the palace, and even the words on the plaque were carried by him himself. He said that the mourning family is like this green bamboo, not seeking to be heard in the forest, not admiring the excitement in the mountains, not grandstanding, not domineering, not gorgeous, not seeking fame, modest, light and elegant, spotless, and natural nature. But after all, he would rather beat himself in the mouth than believe in himself...... There is a more important reason that with me as a hostage, the emperor will not be too protective of Shi'er.

Hua Mian said with emotion when she heard this: "The first emperor really has a unique vision, and Mian'er also feels that the concubine has the charm of bamboo." ”

Qianyu didn't say anything, only raised her sleeve and wiped the corners of her eyes. Hua Mian knew that she had aroused her heartache, and just wanted to comfort her, but she said faintly: "For more than ten years, I thought that all love and hate had been sealed, who knew that when I opened it again, the scar was still bright red." ”

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect it to be ......" Hua Mian's heart tightened, and she couldn't help but look at Pei Yingshi, but she saw that he frowned, and his eyes were a little dark, and he couldn't see what he was thinking.

"You don't have to apologize, you don't have to be comforted. There is no right or wrong in this world. To miss is to miss. I just want to feel the man I've loved all my life again. ”

"Then you, do you still hate him?"

"Hate? I used to hate him, so I didn't see him again until he died. But the moment he left, I suddenly forgave him. ”

Hua Mian only felt a sour feeling in her heart. Why should two people who love each other so much have such a sad ending?

Seeing that Hua Mian was silent, Qianyu said, "Aren't you curious? ”

"Curious, so I'm wondering what force compels you to forgive a man who has hurt you so much."

Qianyu was a little surprised: "Do you think he hurt me?" ”

"Yes. If it were me, I might not be able to forgive. ”

Pei Yingshi said: "Before my father died, the last person I saw was this king. He held my hand and wept, he said that he had forgiven her no matter what mistakes his mother had made, but she never wanted to see him again, and he begged me to help him and let her come to see him. ”

Hua Mian couldn't help but be shocked, and her first reaction was that the emperor must have loved Qianyu very much, because for an emperor, if he didn't love him deeply, it was almost impossible to forgive a concubine who had "lost his virginity". When the idea popped into the air, she couldn't help but be startled. In this way, does Pei Gongcuo really love himself? This realization made her feel a deep sense of regret and sorrow.

She sighed and said to Qianyu, "He has asked for this, why don't you go and see him?" No matter how much you hate it, you should always see the last side. ”

"It's not that I don't want to see him, I just feel that if he leaves with regret and debt, then he can cherish me when they meet in the next life. If I go to see him, I can't help but tell him that I forgive him, and then he will leave without regrets, and maybe we will never be separated again. ”

I see, it's really a trick. Hua Mian said faintly: "Maybe it's a good thing that the concubine didn't go to see the emperor for the last time." If the news reaches the ears of the Queen Mother, how can the concubine stay in the cold palace safely? "I've been living in the palace for a long time, how can Hua Mian not know the insidious and treacherous things about it?

Pei Yingshi squinted at Hua Mian, and was surprised in her heart, and even Qianyuyu cast an admiring look at her. Sure enough, he is a clear person.

While speaking, Yin'er sent hot water, and Hua Mian took out the dried jasmine flowers in her purse, and personally scalded a cup of tea for the concubine. The concubine drank several glasses in a row and was full of praise.

"This tea has a beauty effect, if the concubine likes it, I will ask Wantao to send you some tomorrow."

Qianyu Yu said happily: "Then it couldn't be better." ”

As soon as the tea was drunk, half an hour passed, and seeing that it was getting late, Hua Myanmar called Xueqiu and got up to say goodbye.
