"You are all afraid of her, but I am not afraid."

Jiang Guiren sneered, "A girl from the countryside, relying on those wild intentions to win the emperor's favor, the emperor will get tired of it sooner or later." Can you eat a rock sugar gourd on the side of the road for a lifetime? ”

She looked back at the palace maid behind her, "Even if you eat two more bites of rock sugar gourd for a while, the emperor will sooner or later find out that the fresh fruit that is a tribute is more suitable for him." ”

As he spoke, he walked down the rockery, and said without looking back: "I heard that the imperial dining room sent some tribute pears, and I suddenly wanted to eat them." ”

It didn't take a few days to reach the Qingming solar term, the day was bright, but in the afternoon it was slightly rainy.

Su Youyi asked someone to set up a reclining chair and a low table under the porch, and soaked in a pot of good dragon wells before the rain, and read in a leisurely manner: "During the Qingming Festival, it rains a lot, and pedestrians on the road want to break their souls. By asking where the restaurant is, the shepherd boy pointed to Xinghua Village. ”

The last finger pointed to Shuya next to him.

Shuya willingly handed the teacup to her, and Su Youyi smiled: "Since I learned this poem when I was five years old, I will pay special attention to Qingming every year in the future. I found that it rains every year during Qingming, whether it is Lingnan or Beijing, it is the same. ”

Shuya looked at the sky outside, "Really?" The slave and maid have never paid attention, and it seems that it is when the nobleman says this. In the future, the slave and maid also observed every Qingming to see if it rained every year. ”

Su Youyi tasted the tea and couldn't help asking: "Shuya, I remember that your hometown is in Hubei, what are the customs of Qingming where you are?" ”

Shuya said: "It's nothing, it's nothing more than going to the grave to worship the ancestors." A few days ago, I asked Tashou to send the silver out for me, and there is a reliable uncle in Jingzhong, who will deliver the silver to the house for the slaves. ”

Su Youyi's mind moved, "Send the silver out of the palace?" Did something happen to your family? ”

Shuya hurriedly said: "No, no, nothing happened, the slave's mother and younger brothers and sisters are fine." It was the slave and maid who got a lot of rewards by the nobles, and they couldn't use it by their side, so they simply sent it out of the palace to the family. It happened that many palace people in the Qingming Festival Palace were sending silver to their homes, so the slaves and maids also took advantage of the situation to pack up some silver and send it out. ”

Su Youyi just said when she heard this, "If there is something at home that lacks money, you can tell me." You know, I don't have anyone in my family, and I don't have any money to spend in the future. ”

Shuya heard her say that she was sad, and hurriedly said: "The nobles have given a lot of rewards on weekdays, and the slaves and maids are not short of silver. How can there be nowhere to spend the silver? In the future, if you give birth to a little prince and a little princess, you can give them flowers, although they are not lacking, but isn't this also a heart of being a concubine? ”

Little prince and little princess......

It was hard for Su Youyi to imagine that picture, she hadn't thought about giving birth to a child yet.

Thinking of this, he said: "Our custom in Lingnan is also to sweep the tomb and worship the ancestors today. Once upon a time, when I was still at home, my father would take me up a high mountain every year to visit the graves...... By the way, what are the customs in the palace today? ”

Shuya thought for a while and said: "In the morning, I saw that the palace people were sending Dharma boats everywhere, and when it got dark, they would be sent to the royal river to float, so that those palace people who could not see their families in the palace also expressed their condolences to their relatives." Today, the emperor should go to the Baohua Hall to worship, right? ”

Su Youyi nodded and didn't say anything more.

The emperor and the queen went to the Baohua Hall to worship the royal ancestors, and took a sedan chair out of the Baohua Palace, and saw someone kicking the shuttlecock on the edge of the corridor.

The voice of the palace maid counting, with joy, "Twenty-seven, twenty-eight, twenty-nine...... It's amazing, I've kicked more than 30 of them! ”

The emperor and queen were attracted by this sound, and when they turned the corridor, they saw a gorgeously dressed woman surrounded by the palace maids, kicking the shuttlecock.

She laughed while kicking, and her colorful clothes flew up and down with the beating, lively and vivid.

When the queen heard the laughter, she couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth slightly, and suddenly found that the woman surrounded by her was a little familiar, and the smile couldn't help but slowly freeze at the corners of her mouth.

That person turned out to be Jiang Guiren.

I have always seen her self-respecting and dignified, and I have never seen her such a lively and laughing scene, so the queen did not recognize her at first.

After recognizing it, she couldn't help but look at the emperor.

The emperor's face was as pale as ever, and he couldn't see the emotions in his heart, and he didn't know whether he was happy or unhappy.

The queen didn't dare to say anything, but said: "Go over and see, who is laughing and disturbing the holy driver?" ”

Before Cui Shao stepped forward, he saw Jiang Guiren kicking the shuttlecock and accidentally dropped the step on his head, and when he stopped picking up, he happened to see the emperor and the queen's sedan chair.

She hurriedly came up to salute, "The concubine lost her manners, and I didn't know that the emperor and queen had arrived." ”

Ignorance?

The queen looked at her lightly, and said in her heart If she really didn't know, why didn't she kick the shuttlecock in her palace, and ran to the vicinity of the Baohua Hall to jump.

Obviously, he knew that the emperor Qingming was going to come to worship, so he deliberately waited here.

Su Youyi flew a kite, and she kicked the shuttlecock so that she could follow suit.

The queen was displeased, and her eyes only fell on the emperor, who said casually: "Get up." ”

Jiang Guiren got up and glanced at the emperor shyly and timidly, with a tactful look in his eyes.

The emperor said: "Why are you kicking shuttlecock here?" ”

Jiang Guiren had already prepared his words, "The concubine saw that the virtuous concubine was happy and quiet, and she didn't dare to jump in the Xianfu Palace." He took the palace maid around the imperial garden, and when he saw that there was no one here, he jumped here for a while. ”

The emperor said: "Don't you know that today is the Qingming season, and I will come to Baohua Hall to worship?" ”

The queen has a bad heart, the emperor doesn't like to talk much on weekdays, but today he asked Jiang Guiren a few questions.

Could it be that he was really attracted by Jiang Guiren's Dong Shi Xiaofeng's actions?

Jiang Guidao: "The concubine didn't know that the emperor would come here, and she didn't know that this neighborhood was the Baohua Palace." ”

The emperor nodded, didn't say anything more, and waved his hand.

Gao Qishou immediately understood, and sang loudly: "The emperor is driving-"

Jiang Guiren watched the emperor's sedan chair go away, although she was a little disappointed that the emperor did not take her back on the spot, but when she saw the queen's jealous eyes, she knew that she had succeeded.

If the emperor hadn't been attracted to her, he wouldn't have talked to her much.

The palace maid beside her also sensed the emperor's thoughts, and hurriedly came up to congratulate, "Congratulations, sooner than tonight, or tomorrow night, the emperor will definitely summon the nobles to sleep!" ”

"As long as the emperor likes it, it will not be in vain for me to make a rock sugar gourd."

Jiang Guiren smiled proudly, casually threw the shuttlecock into the flower garden, patted the ash on his hand, "Let's go, go back to the palace." ”

……

"Hahaha, it's ridiculous!"

Duofu ran in from outside, laughing uncontrollably, and the palace people in the Star Pavilion were all attracted to him at once.

"What's wrong? What happened? ”
