Chapter 15 Miss Gu Er who was pitted
Concubine Xiao thought for a while and said, "This palace naturally knows, but this matter is at least related to Ye'er's safety. ”
The old lady smiled and said: "It's enough for you to have this thought, now there are only three princes in the palace, and apart from the second prince, it is just a prince who has nothing and a third prince who has been ranked outside all the year round, what are you worried about?" ”
Concubine Xiao Guifei seemed to be relieved, and the old lady took the tea cup brought by the palace maid and said: "What's more, the queen seems to be very generous, and it seems that the queen in the harem has not caused any trouble for the concubines in the palace." ”
Xiao Guifei smiled and nodded, and then looked at the three girls behind the old lady.
When his eyes were on Gu Qinglian, he paused, but he quickly withdrew his gaze and chuckled: "I just met Qinglian and Qingyuan a few days ago, and it seems that Qingqian didn't come a few days ago." ”
Qing Qian bowed his head and said: "Qing Qian did some wrong things before, and the whole house was not at peace, which is really ashamed." ”
The old lady turned the Buddha bead in her hand and said: "In recent days, the shallow girl has become more sensible, although there is still a lot of trouble, but at least it makes people look a lot more comfortable." ”
Qingqian thought that there was something wrong with her ears, and the old lady was actually talking to her? She felt a little incredible, and looked sideways at Gu Qinglian beside her, the girl's face had almost become colorful.
Qing Qian almost laughed out loud, and looked down to see the dark lines of the layers of smoke on the corners of Gu Qingyuan's skirt, it was estimated that there was something wrong with this skirt.
In her opinion, Gu Qinglian is quite smart, and she can put on a skirt like this with the maid of Luomei Pavilion who is not sensible when she first comes, but the only thing she didn't expect was that wearing this Luo skirt today would make the old lady unhappy.
At that time, how could the old lady not know where her skirt came from, but she didn't say anything, but repeatedly reminded her that Xiao Guifei should not wear this skirt on the day of her birthday. But when she got out of the carriage today, she saw her come out of the carriage in a jeweled manner, and the old lady collapsed on the spot.
Even if there is no concubine in the Gu Mansion, but no matter how nominally it looks, it is the oldest, but the eldest lady is dressed in simple clothes and the second lady is so eye-catching, what kind of etiquette is this? Even if Gu Qinglian didn't do anything wrong on the bright side, it looked like a farce to others.
I'm afraid she's so smart that she can turn a deaf ear to the old lady's words. Jiang is old and spicy no matter what, Gu Qinglian can have this scene in the house, at least half of it is held up by the old lady.
Qing Qian sighed lightly, handed over the small box in his hand and said: "Concubine Niangniang's birthday, Qing Qian is not sensible, I only brought such a little thing here, and please don't be surprised by Concubine Niangniang." ”
Xiao Guifei ordered the palace maid to take the box and open it, only to see that there were four rice cakes dipped in honey and plum blossom dew lying in the box, each of which was only the size of her fist, and a simple plum blossom was carved on it with a wooden board casually, although it looked simple, it made people feel that it was full of heart, and as soon as the lid was opened, before the entrance, there was already a smell of a sweet plum fragrance with just the right shade, which made Xiao Guifei a little greedy.
Although this pastry is not as delicate as the cooks in the imperial dining room, it is strange, she called Aunt Su, and after testing the poison with a silver needle, she pinched a piece and put it in her mouth, the delicate rice cake entered and melted, and the delicate and dense taste filled the whole mouth.
Gu Qinglian thought that Qing Qian would definitely send the aloe vera paste that had been packed before, but as soon as Xiao Guifei opened the lid, she smelled the good smell of plum and rice, could it be that Gu Qingqian added plum blossoms and rice to it? But seeing that Xiao Guifei had already pinched a piece of rice cake and came out, could it be that Gu Qingqian didn't send the aloe vera cream?
That's fine, the aloe vera cream does have a good effect, she tried a little, and the skin on her face was really a lot more delicate, so she didn't think that Gu Qingqian was cheating her, since Gu Qingqian didn't send it, then she sent it.
This is also something that she and Feng have been in tune with for a long time.
"Guifei Niangniang, Qinglian also has a gift for you."
The box that Qinglian was holding in her hand, Qing Qian had already guessed that it was aloe vera cream. Sure enough, when the concubine opened the box, there was a delicate celadon box inside, which contained a thick aloe vera cream.
Xiao Guifei's face suddenly turned a little white, and the aunt also smelled the smell, her face changed, she took the box in her hand and threw it out.
The box fell apart on the ground, and the sticky aloe vera paste flowed out little by little, Xiao Guifei covered her face with her sleeve and said, "Aunt He, go and invite the imperial doctor for the palace, and bring this thing out to the palace by the way." ”
"This ......" Gu Qinglian's face was a little stiff, this aloe vera was obviously rewarded by Concubine Xiao when she entered the palace the month before, why did she react so much to the aloe vera cream.
The old lady turned her head and asked, "What did you give?" ”
Gu Qingqian was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses and said aggrievedly: "Qinglian...... Qinglian knew that the skin of the concubine was not good, so she specially ...... I made some aloe vera paste and wanted to try it for the concubine Niangniang, and Qinglian has been using this, so there is no harm. ”
Obviously there is nothing harmful, why did the concubine Niangniang react so much! Even...... Even Aunt He beside her threw her out directly!
Qing Qian saw Xiao Guifei's reaction, but she already understood three points in her heart, but I am afraid that the luck of the second sister is really not particularly good.
Xiao Guifei is allergic to aloe vera! Seeing that she was just smelling a little, her cheeks were already a little red, and the imperial doctor hurriedly arrived, took out some ointment from the medicine box and rubbed it to stop the spread of these red spots.
Gu Qinglian was a little flustered, the old lady had already stared at her with a sinking face, but it was just that Concubine Xiao didn't dare to attack.
Concubine Xiao Guifei lay down for a while before she said slowly: "Qinglian girl is just kind intentions, I don't know that this palace has a serious allergy to aloe vera, and this thing was also found by the emperor from Lingnan." ”
Seeing that the old lady's eyes had turned sideways, Gu Qinglian blessed her body and said: "Qinglian knows her mistake, she hasn't carefully thought about whether this aloe vera cream will cause the discomfort of the concubine, and please don't take the concubine Niangniang seriously." ”
Xiao Guifei smiled: "Naturally not, the second miss of the Gu family has always been the most sensible, and when I came here before, my mother praised you in front of me, saying that you are dignified and virtuous, so that I can pay more attention to the young talents in the court." ”
The taste was a little strange when these words came out of Xiao Guifei's mouth, Xiao Guifei squinted her eyes, the girl standing in front of her had gentle and beautiful eyebrows, but a set of jeweled eight-treasure tortoiseshell head and dress looked a little inconsistent, where did this look like the second lady of the Gu Mansion?
On the contrary, Miss Gu and Miss Gu San behind them looked much more pleasing to the eye.
"I'll look at Qingyuan's gift later." Concubine Xiao was a little tired, and waved her hand to let them out first.
The Jade Xiao Palace was very close to the Imperial Garden, and her aunt stepped forward to take them over, but the old lady took Gu Qinglian to stay in the side room of the palace for a while, and let Qingqian and Qingyuan leave first.
"Sister, the aloe vera paste should have come up with you, right?" Gu Qingyuan, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke.
Along the way, Gu Qingyuan's sense of existence was very low, and he stood quietly on the side from beginning to end.
Qing Qian smiled and said: "How could my sister ask this question, I just know the effect of some jade oil shallots, and I don't know how Qinglian made this aloe vera paste at all." ”
"A few days ago, I knew that the maids I bought brought some white jelly to Bibo Garden every day, and my sister also went to the kitchen a few days ago to take away the last bit of white jelly, so my sister thought, what is the connection between this?" Qing Yuan looked at her slyly.
"How is it?" Qingqian did not avoid her gaze, "But how does my sister know that my maid went to get the white jelly a few days ago, and how does she know that the maid she bought brought some white jelly to Bibo Courtyard?" ”
These are all things that the purchased grandmother knows, how could Gu Qingyuan know this?
"That sister really hurt the second sister," Gu Qingyuan covered his mouth with his long sleeves and smiled, "Sister shouldn't have thought that the second sister would send this thing over." ”
Qing Qian turned his gaze to the front and said: "The third sister said with a smile, I think this matter must be very clear if you can know it here, just like why the old lady is in a bad mood today." ”
"My sister is also an understanding person." Qing Yuan stretched out his hand and gently pulled her sleeve and said, "Qing Yuan feels that the eldest sister and the second sister have become much smarter, especially the second sister, the eldest sister has to protect me a little." ”
Qing Qian let her lead and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will hurt you with my backhand?" ”
"No, it won't." Qing Yuan squinted at her with clear eyes and said, "Qing Yuan has always been very accurate in seeing people, although my sister's temperament was straighter before, but her heart is not bad, my sister believes that my sister will not really push my second sister into the water, after all, no one can benefit from this, and my sister is not so stupid." As for the second sister, the second sister is too smart, and the eldest sister has to be careful. ”
Qingqian nodded, but there was already a cold sweat behind him, these detailed things didn't even know the mother who was holding the account book, why did Gu Qingyuan know so clearly? I watched this girl quietly before, but I didn't know that there were thousands of waves hidden behind this quietness.
His eyes deviated slightly from the front, and his eyes touched Gu Qinglian beside him, but he saw this girl smiling slightly at him and smiled: "Sister, don't worry, my sister didn't intend to do anything, as long as people don't offend me, then I won't harm anyone." ”
