"Sister stay-"

Yi Concubine hurriedly called, while handing over the child in her arms to the nurse to hold, she carefully and hurriedly walked down the steps out of the Zhishuang Pavilion, "Sister Su, what's the urgency?" ”

Su Lian glanced at the little monkey in his arms who had been woken up, and his eyes were cute, and he said: "The sixth elder brother is about to be hungry, and he is thinking about returning to the Lanning Hall sooner, is there anything wrong with Concubine Yi?" ”

The smile on Concubine Yi's face became slightly embarrassed, but she still said, "Can you disturb my sister for a while?" ”

Su Lian smiled and said, "Just say it." ”

Yi Concubine looked around, raised her hand and said, "Sister Su, please come into the pavilion and sit down." ”

People can be seen on all sides of this Zhishuang Pavilion, so in broad daylight, Su Curtain is also a little relieved, so he followed her into the pavilion and sat on the stone pier inside.

Yi Concubine glanced at the fourth princess and the fifth elder brother who were playing together, and said with a graceful smile: "The queen mother is really the most kind and kind person, my sister must have felt something, right?" ”

Su Lian only kept a polite smile and listened to her words quietly. Yi Concubine seemed to be unhurried, lowered her head and took a sip of warm tea, and continued: "The Queen Mother originally preferred her sister's sixth elder brother, and I hope that my sister won't be angry with me!" ”

"That's a big deal." Su Lian's smile is like a ripple, and he also cherishes words like gold. What Yi Concubine said was that she took the first step to ask Yinqi to be raised under the knees of the Queen Mother.

Yi Concubine pursed her lips and smiled, and her tone became more and more friendly: "I know that my sister is not a careful person, I have too much heart!" It's just-" Yi Concubine's words suddenly turned to sadness, she lowered her head and gently wiped the corners of her eyes, and in an instant, her eyes were already red, "My sister must also know that the Queen Mother...... It's not easy! ”

Su Lian had no choice but to haha: "Yi Concubine Niangniang's words, I don't understand, the Queen Mother is such a noble and blessed person, there were indeed difficult days back then, but now the emperor attaches great importance to filial piety." The Queen Mother has already been bitter and willing, and her wealth is long-term. ”

"It's me who can't speak! It's time to fight, it's time to fight! Concubine Yi hurriedly removed the sad look on her face, and looked smiling again, "The Queen Mother is naturally the most blessed person!" The emperor is also filial piety, and he can set an example for his family and country. It's just that my sister probably knows that the queen mother is the emperor's mother-in-law, but now she lives in Shoukang Palace, the resting place of the emperor's concubines. ”

Yi Concubine was provocative, but Su Lian was already mentally prepared, and said slowly: "This is also a helpless thing, you can't ask the Queen Mother to give up Cining Palace to the Queen Mother, right?" ”

Yi Concubine was stunned for a moment, but then a dark color slipped under her eyes, she smiled coquettishly, bright and vivid, "My sister is really joking!" "Slightly embarrassed. Yi Concubine lowered her eyebrows and smiled, and sighed softly: "In fact, there is the best of both worlds, the Queen Mother has always been filial to the Queen Mother, and she must be willing to live in Cining Palace to serve and accompany the Queen Mother!" This not only conforms to filial piety, but also respects her old man's face. Wouldn't it be best of both worlds? Sister, what do you think? ”

Su Lian understands that Yi Concubine has already dug a big pit, and she must not say "bad". In fact, according to her own opinion, the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother live in Cining Palace...... Well. As long as the two old ladies have no opinions, in fact, there is nothing to do, but it's a pity that Xuan Ye - he refuses to be a son, what can Su Lian do? So I had no choice but to say: "Yi Concubine Niangniang is exquisite, since there is such a good method, you might as well go and talk to the emperor in person." ”

wants to please the Queen Mother. Just run around on your own! Don't think about her like a fool!! Su Lian scolded speechlessly in his heart.

When Yi Concubine heard this, Gu Ying immediately felt sorry for herself: "Look at what my sister said!" If I really have that much in the emperor's heart, how can I sit here? As he spoke, he lowered his head and silently wiped away his tears, "I came to the palace by myself, and I haven't seen the emperor's face yet!" Where is the opportunity to speak! ”

Yi Concubine felt self-pity and self-pity. From the corner of his eye, he glanced at Su Lai, and suddenly reached out and grabbed Su Lai's hand, with a pleading look: "Sister Su!" The Queen Mother treats you well, you must not turn a blind eye! If my sister really has a chance, please make a little talk to the emperor! ”

Su Lian was really annoyed, she was pressed with righteousness, she couldn't refuse, so she had to perfunctory: "I know." Quietly withdrawing his hand, he glanced at the little monkey in his arms, and he was licking his little fist and eating sweetly, looking really hungry.

What a sharp eye Yi Concubine, how could she not see the impatience in Su Lian's words? couldn't help but have a trace of annoyance in his eyes, but he hid it alive, looked at the children who were playing on the side, and said: "This time the companion is in time, and there is a little shortage of needlework, thanks to Sister Su's needlework room for the fourth princess to make summer clothes." Thank you for the princess again! ”

Su Lian looked sideways, the four princesses who looked like powder, giggled with laughter, and their pretty facial features were classified according to the rarity of Yi Concubine, although they were immature, but this is a beauty blank, and they will definitely be good when they grow up, so they said: "Yi Concubine Niangniang is polite, just two clothes." If the princess's needlework is too busy in the future, please do not hesitate to command the needlework room. ”

Yi Concubine pursed her lips and smiled: "How embarrassed is the person who calls his sister again and again!" As she spoke, her cheeks were coquettish, and she seemed to say with a thoughtful look: "I heard that there is a needlework maid named Xiangyin in the sewing room, and the Hunan embroidery with one hand is called a standout, which is really rare!" ”

Su Lian didn't quite understand why Yi Concubine mentioned Xiang Yin, but she remembered that Xiang Yin's needlework was indeed good, so she pushed the boat down the river and said: "If Yi Concubine Niangniang likes it, ask her to go to the Cloud Cliff Pavilion to serve." ”

The corners of Yi Concubine's mouth curled, and she said, "I don't dare to ask for such a palace maid!" ”

Listening to the words in Yi Concubine's words, Su Lian couldn't help but sink down and think, Yi Concubine smiled and continued: "That Xiangyin looks a little beautiful!" This makes me can't help but think, wasn't the woman of the guard a slave in my sister's needlework room in the past? ”

Whether it is a warning word or a provocative word, Su Curtain does not know. In the past, Wei's and Su Lian thought about it, but they couldn't think of where they had treated her badly, and now Xiangyin ...... She didn't feel bad, but Xiang Yin herself couldn't figure out what to think! The human heart is the most complex thing in the world! What's more, there are many temptations in the palace, and if you have a little bit of posture and a little bit of thought, it is also unpredictable. It's just that Su Lian, remembering Xuan Ye's promise, was a little more comfortable, and said sourly to Yi Concubine: "Yi Concubine Niangniang's national appearance, why worry about a little palace maid?" What's more, isn't there a good-looking Su Ni by Niangniang's side? ”

Yi Concubine smiled and said, "Su Ni's appearance is mediocre, it's nothing!" At that time, Guo Guiren and I were both pregnant and couldn't sleep, so I chose a few good-looking maids from Yikun Palace to serve the emperor, and Su Juan, who had served the emperor with her, had been rewarded by the emperor for agreeing to the title, but Su Ni's life was bitter, and the emperor was only fortunate twice, and he forgot about it. ”

Seeing Yi Concubine smiling and talking about her original actions like ordinary words, Su Lian felt that her heart was blocked just by listening to it, and it was difficult for Yi Concubine to do it. These virtuous concubines, aren't they tired of living? Isn't your heart tired? Such as Concubine Tong, Concubine Yi and the like, Su Curtain really can't imagine their thoughts.

Yi Concubine said slowly: "Originally, I didn't plan to bring Su Ni here, but the two big palace maids beside me, the other one named Qingshuang, suddenly had a stomach discomfort and couldn't come to serve." I have a total of two first-class palace maids, and I am afraid that those second-class will not be able to support the big scene, so I have to bring Su Ni. ”

There seems to be a hint in Yi Concubine's words, Su Lian's ears are not deaf, how can he not understand? This kind of palace maid, not everyone can call, at least the concubine mother, the number of palace maids in the palace concubines close to serve is limited, the queen is accompanied by ten palace maids, including four first-class and six second-class; The imperial concubine and the concubine are equipped with eight close palace maids, including three first-class palace maids and five second-class palace maids; Concubines and concubines, with six palace maids to serve closely, two people in the first class and four people in the second class. The four people around the nobles are all second-class, and the three people who are often around are all second-class, and the two around them are all second-class. Of course, there is no limit to the amount of women in the third class.

It's just that the Su curtain of the Ning Palace, there is a bit of excess, the first-class palace maids have embroidered screens, embroidered curtain sisters, four jubilees, and four snails, and there are more than a dozen second-class ones. Although there are many concubines in the palace who are excessive, Su Curtain still has the position of promise, which is so much exceeded, it makes people smack.

I didn't want to be entangled in Yi Concubine for more hours, so I casually found an excuse to leave.

When he returned to the Laning Palace, it was already evening, and Xuan Ye had not yet come, so Su Curtain first asked the nurse to go down with the little monkey to feed, and drank a yogurt ice bowl prepared by Wang Yan herself, while instructing: "Send someone to Chunhui Hall to ask the emperor when he will come." ”

At this time, Sixi came in with a small screen and said, "Niangniang, the sewing room has newly embroidered a kang screen." ”

Su Curtain looked carefully, the size of the kang screen was appropriate, the base of the red sandalwood, the silver white thin silk on the top embroidered with excellent mandarin duck and the pattern, and it was also double-sided embroidery, there was no miscellaneous line on the front and back, and secretly sighed that the ancients needlework was ingenious, and said: "Send it to the sixth elder brother's room and replace the glazed kang screen." Although the glass is beautiful, if it is broken when it touches it, it is not good to tie the little hand. ”

The screen is an indispensable decoration in the room, the partition thing, standing between this room and the bright room is a mountain type Huanghuali lacquer carving Wanfu Ruyi screen, it is very atmospheric, it is three fan type, one of the largest and highest in the middle, the height of both sides decreases in turn, it is in the shape of "mountain", so it is called "mountain word screen".

Hanging on the wall is a Bogutu inlaid ivory hanging screen, which happens to be a group of four, each with a gold inscription poem, which is not lacking in elegance. The so-called Bogu is a miscellaneous painting, often for vases, incense burners, flowers, fruits, furniture, etc., with exquisite collocation, but also without losing the charm. The first of them is a pot of Ganoderma lucidum on the incense table, which means Ruyi, and the left side mentions the words "But in the New Year, I wish everything to be as good as I wish"; The second hanging screen is a peony full of dew in the pastel dendrobium, which means wealth and nobility, mentioning Liu Yuxi's poem "Only the peony is true to the national color, and the flower moves the capital when it blooms"; The third is a handful of lotus flowers in the jade pot spring bottle, which means many children; The third is a tall blue and white plate with apples and persimmons scattered, which means that everything is safe.

Everything in the inner hall is elegant, and the side of the Su curtain is snuggled against the pillow, squinting his eyes slightly.
