is the so-called three women in one play. Now there are only three women in this harem who can show their faces on stage. Since they said that she could cover the sky with one hand, then she would sing a domineering drama.

When Zhulu heard this, she was very relieved. "Niangniang is wise, so that everyone in the harem will not dare to underestimate you."

Meng Xilan gently pushed away the pillow in her hand and said slowly: "I didn't want to be so heavy, but if you think about it carefully, you have to let them know that it hurts." ”

If it doesn't hurt, it's better not to hit.

With a decree, the bright red palace seal fell, and the second-grade concubine became the fifth-grade Wen Jieyu, and the difference between the three grades undoubtedly hit her face.

Zhang Rong'er knelt on the ground, listening to Xiao Chunzi come to announce the decree, and trembled with anger.

She gritted her teeth, held back her anger, and took the decree from Xiao Chunzi's hand.

"Concubine, thank you for the grace of the concubine."

Although Xiao Chunzi is young, he is a deep one, his expression is not in a hurry, and he stands up straight and says: "The concubine Niangniang instructed the slave to bring a word to Niangniang. ”

Zhang Rong'er got up and lowered her eyes and waited silently.

"It's a long time to come, so you can do it yourself."

Zhang Rong'er was so angry that her armored fingers trembled, and she took a deep breath before saying, "The concubine respectfully follows the teachings of the concubine. ”

Then, Haruko walked away.

Zhang Rong'er threw Yi Zhi to the ground fiercely, and then stepped on it with her foot.

Seeing this, the palace maid next to her hurriedly persuaded: "Niangniang, this is not enough." ”

If people find out, it's a big crime of disrespect.

Zhang Rong'er was so angry that her eyes were red, and she only said, "What if you see it?" It's a big deal to reduce the palace to three grades in a row, and directly demote it to a concubine. ”

She took off the armor on her hands, then took off the jewelry hairpins on her body and threw them to the ground one by one.

Seeing this, the palace maids panicked, and hurriedly knelt down to pick it up: "Niangniang is angry, Niangniang is angry...... I was angry. ”

Zhang Rong'er hated it so much that she lost her temper regardless of it. But I didn't know that Xiao Chunzi was waiting outside to listen to the movement, and after she went back, she only told her master every word and every sentence she had said.

Meng Xilan only shook her head slightly when she heard this.

Zhu Lu said softly on the side: "Niangniang, if she doesn't know what to do next time, Niangniang might as well fulfill her." ”

Meng Xilan glanced at her, and her tone was slightly reproachful: "Don't say such things." She is the emperor's concubine in the end, and once she leaves the palace, this life will be over. ”

She's still young, and she's still a lot of good years.

After returning to the palace, Meng Xilan still did not forget to do Buddhist things every day, and sandalwood was often scattered in Cining Palace, revealing a simple and tranquil atmosphere.

After Zhou Youchen finished dealing with political affairs, he liked to come here the most, and he always felt that there was no place in the world that could calm his mind like here.

"I heard that you gave Wen Jieyu a decree. What do you think? Relieved? ”

Zhou Youchen changed out of his court clothes, changed into homely magpie gray clothes, and accompanied Meng Xilan to drink tea and talk.

When he was young, he loved to wear magpie gray clothes, and now, after ascending the throne, it is still the same.

"No matter how great the decree is, it cannot be greater than the holy decree. If the emperor thinks that I have punished me too severely, he can just issue another holy decree to comfort the Zhang family. Meng Xilan sat on the couch embroidering a handkerchief, and said in a light tone.

"Nonsense!" Zhou Youchen spoke to her for the first time in a lesson-telling tone, but there was a smile between his eyebrows.

Why did he think she was jealous when she said this?

"Since I have given you the right to take charge of the Six Palaces, how can I go against your will? I just wanted to ask you, is your heart happy? ”

Meng Xilan smiled faintly: "If it is not pleasant, it is a lie." ”

Zhou Youchen also smiled when he heard this, but then he changed his expression before he said: "It is my fault to let you suffer an injustice and be criticized." I have ordered the harem to be cleaned up, and all those rumor-mongering minions are being expelled from the palace and sent to the frontier. It's so high that they can chew their tongues to their heart's content. ”

Meng Xilan still asked lightly: "Those rumors...... Does the emperor really not believe it? ”

Zhou Youchen frowned: "Of course, do you think I will be suspicious of you?" I have said that even if the sky falls, I will believe you, just as you believe in me. ”

Meng Xilan's heart trembled when she heard this, which made her hands lose her sense of proportion.

The fingertips tingled slightly, and the needle tips easily pierced the skin, dripping with blood.

The crimson blood is particularly dazzling to look at.

Meng Xilan frowned slightly. She is the least fond of seeing blood.

"Tsk, why are you so careless!" Zhou Youchen frowned and snorted lightly.

He got up and walked over, gently pushed away the eye-catching bamboo dew on the side, grabbed Meng Xilan's bleeding fingers, and gently put them into his mouth.

Meng Xilan raised her eyebrows in surprise, and hurriedly withdrew her hand and said, "Don't ...... it"

Zhou Youchen was willing to listen, and grabbed her wrist tightly, making her unable to move. He gently sucked the blood from her fingertips, frowned, and looked serious.

Seeing this, Zhu Lu and Zhu Qing gave each other a look, and both retreated.

Meng Xilan's cheeks floated with an unnatural flush, such an action was too intimate.

Zhou Youchen held her fingertips in his mouth, and after a while, he could let go of her hand and bow his head to examine it seriously.

Meng Xilan was a little uncomfortable and said, "It's just a stab, it doesn't matter." ”

"Why doesn't it matter? If you are injured, I am injured, and if you bleed, I bleed, so you have to protect yourself. Zhou Youchen said seriously: "Besides, you are good, what are you doing all this needlework all of a sudden?" ”

"This is embroidered for Brother Yun. Every year on his birthday, the mourning family would give him a handkerchief. Meng Xilan lowered her eyes and said.

This year, she chose the pattern of Junzi Lan, hoping that he can grow up to be a humble gentleman as soon as possible.

Zhou Youchen glanced at the handkerchief, frowned, and said, "You really feel sorry for Brother Yun." When will you embroider one for me? ”

Meng Xilan glanced at him with a smile when she heard this: "What is the emperor fighting with a little child's family?" ”

Zhou Youchen insisted: "I just want to fight. ”

She treats Brother Yun too closely, and sometimes even closer than her own mother.

Meng Xilan nodded helplessly when she heard this, so she had to agree.

A few days later, Mrs. Meng entered the palace with Brother Yun, ready to discuss with Meng Xilan about the wedding next month.

Meng Xilan came to her senses when she saw Brother Yun, and without saying a few words to her grandmother, she was going to take him to the Imperial Garden for a walk.

The flowers bloom just right and the scenery is beautiful.

Mrs. Meng looked at her carefully before she said, "Yes, I look at Niangniang's complexion, it seems that those nourishing recipes are not in vain." ”

Meng Xilan was combing Brother Yun'er's hair with a peach wood comb, and smiled slightly: "How can such a valuable prescription be useless." ”

Mrs. Meng sighed and said, "As long as it works." ”

When Brother Yun heard this, he suddenly turned his head and asked, "Auntie, is there anything uncomfortable?" ”

Meng Xilan lowered her head and smiled: "No, my aunt is fine." ”

Brother Yun stretched out his hand in a manner, and pressed his palm to her forehead, "I'll take a look at my aunt, I'll treat my aunt." ”

"Will our Brother Yun still heal?"

Brother Yun said with a serious face: "Well, if your forehead is hot, then you are sick." That's what my mother told me. ”

Meng Xilan and her grandmother glanced at each other and couldn't help laughing.

At a young age, it is the most cute.

Brother Yun stood on tiptoe, touched Meng Xilan's forehead, and said half-loudly: "Well, my aunt is not sick." ”

"You little clever."

Meng Xilan gently pulled his shoulders and continued to comb his hair. "Thank you, Brother Yun, for thinking so much about your aunt."

Brother Yun said sweetly: "My aunt is Brother Yun'er's favorite person, and Brother Yun thinks about my aunt every day." ”

Old Madam Meng gently scratched the tip of his nose when she heard this, and praised him: "It's your sweet mouth." It's not in vain that your aunt has loved you for so many years, I think, I think Ming'er will send you directly to the palace and let you be your aunt's child. ”

Brother Yun was slightly stunned when he heard the face that was still smiling.

Meng Xilan saw that he was worried, and said busily; "Silly boy, grandmother is teasing you."

Old Mrs. Meng smiled meaningfully, lowered her head and took a sip of tea, before saying, "Actually, it's not impossible to let Brother Yun be your adopted son......

Before she finished her words, she was stopped by Meng Xilan with her eyes.

In front of children, how can this kind of thing be easily said.

Meng Xilan hurriedly gave Zhu Lu a look and instructed: "Zhu Lu, there are a lot of beautiful stones under the rockery over there, you take Brother Yun over to have a look." ”

"Yes......" Zhulu took Yun Ge'er's hand and led him out to play.

Meng Xilan looked at her grandmother and said with an extremely serious expression: "What do you mean by what you just said?" Brother Yun is the grandson of the Meng family and the eldest son of his brother. ”

If it's a joke, it's too much. But grandmother, how could she joke about something so important?

Mrs. Meng muttered: "Your health is not good, if you can't get pregnant for three or five years, what should you do?" I am also planning for your long-term, the women in the palace, there is no future without heirs. ”

Meng Xilan's eyes flickered slightly when she heard this, revealing a trace of sadness, and she only said, "Grandmother, are you really just planning for me?" Isn't there any other purpose? ”

She hadn't gone to bed yet, and it was too early to talk about the heirs. What's more, once Brother Yun becomes her adopted son, then his rank will be equivalent to the emperor's concubine, and he will have the opportunity to become an official and a knight in the future, and even get the name of the county king. Perhaps, this is what Grandmother really intended.

For some reason, Meng Xilan suddenly remembered that she had been like this and had entered the palace to live in the name of her family. Yun Ge'er's life had just begun, and she couldn't let him step into this filthy place full of ambition so early.

"Mother, what are you suspecting? Of course, grandmother is doing this for your sake......" the old lady's tone was a little anxious.

Meng Xilan lowered her eyes slightly, hid her complicated thoughts, took a deep breath and said, "Brother Yun is the eldest son of my brother, and I am the heart of my sister-in-law. No matter how difficult my situation is, I can't rob them of hope. Grandmother, let's not talk about this in the future! ”
