Chapter 792: The Concubine Wants Someone
When Concubine Xiang heard him say this, she forgot the bitterness of the marquis, it turned out that he had always been thinking about talking to him about Qiu Lianke.
Qiu Yueyu lowered her eyes slightly, she thought that the two got along well, and it didn't matter at all whether she talked about her brother or not!
"I heard that Your Majesty wants the concubine's brother to enter the palace as an official, and for this reason, the concubine wants to use the conditions for her brother to enter the palace to ask Your Majesty for a person." Concubine Xiang said with a smile, and gently put the cup in her hand back on the square table, the bitterness of the tea was difficult to enter her throat at all, and she thought how delicious the plum blossom tea was.
However, Cang Linchen was willing to make a pot of plum blossom tea for her, and she was very happy.
Cang Rinchen's brows furrowed slightly, emotionally, Concubine Xiang seized the opportunity to negotiate conditions with herself, her face became more and more pale, and she asked coldly: "Do you think I have to use your brother?" Do you want to ruin your brother's future? ”
"Your Majesty doesn't know that the concubine's brother is not a person who pursues fame and fortune, he likes the life of idle clouds and wild cranes, and the concubine has gone to write a letter a few days ago to persuade his brother to serve Yasukuni." Concubine Xiang sent the letter as early as the first day of the first lunar month, and she also received a response from Qiu Lianke, indicating to her that she did not want to be deeply involved in officialdom.
Although she is her own brother, she is a full thirteen thoughts older, and she is a person who has come and stood for a year, and she is used to living an unrestrained life, and she doesn't want to be polluted by the filth of officialdom.
How could Cang Linchen not know that the people he sent were directly rejected by Qiu Lianke, claiming that he would rather be a reckless man of the people than be mediocre with a black veil on his head.
Cang Linchen even felt that if he was an official, he would definitely be a good and honest official, much better than those who sold their reputation in the court.
At the moment, he was a little shaken by Concubine Xiang, Concubine Xiang was threatening him, using Qiu Lianke's matter, I have to say that he really needs someone like Qiu Lianke.
"And who do you want?" His heart was full of dead anger, and a concubine actually threatened him with a courtier, which was the first time, and it happened to choke his weakness.
Qiu Lianke had to ask him, Concubine Xiang asked him if he wanted someone, as long as it wasn't Xia Yinhuan, anyone could do it.
Seeing that Cang Rinchen actually agreed, Concubine Xiang brought a smile on the corner of her mouth that she had succeeded in her treacherous scheme, and her fingers rubbed the edge of the blue and yellow porcelain glazed cup, and her tone was slow: "The concubine wants the maidservant Ling'er." ”
Ling'er is clever, and she is the most trustworthy person in the palace, after being wrongfully imprisoned by Xia Yinhuan, she realized more clearly that there must be someone by her side, someone who dares to stand up for her, like Yanling's submissive temperament, she can't look down on it at all.
"Okay." Cang Linchen didn't think about it, he agreed to it, it didn't matter how good Xia Yinhuan was, but today, Concubine Xiang threatened him, and he didn't have to feel guilty about her in the future, and he didn't have to treat her as a concubine anymore, at most she was Qiu Lianke's sister.
Thinking of what she had just said, Cang Linchen added, "I promised to release Ling'er, but after you wrote a letter, your brother promised to go to the capital?" ”
What he was worried about was that Qiu Lianke was too stubborn, even if Concubine Xiang invited him, he would not come to the court to be an official, so it would be useless for him to promise Concubine Xiang to let Ling'er go.
"Your Majesty, my brother has loved his concubines since he was a child, and for the sake of the concubines in the palace, he will definitely come." Concubine Xiang's soul-hooking phoenix eyes stared at Cang Linchen for a moment, believing that she did write Qiu Lianke would definitely arrive, and she was sure that Qiu Lianke would no longer stand idly by when she saw the content of the letter.
Cang Linchen also looked at her, his eyes met, his eyes were only as cold as ice, he got up and looked at Ande on the shore, and said, "Since that's the case, then so be it." ”
He had no intention of talking more with Concubine Xiang, and Concubine Xiang was not like the relationship between husband and concubine, but more like interests.
Ander stood on the shore and looked at Cang Linchen and stood up and raised his hand, so he pointed to the lake accordingly, and saw Cang Linchen's head, so he hurriedly beckoned two guards, untied the rope tied to the trunk of the tree on the desk, and then dragged it back.
There were no oars on the boat, only a rope tied to the bow, and if you wanted to let the boat dock, you had to drag the boat back to the shore.
The boat shook on the water, Concubine Xiang was afraid, and she clung to the edge of the boat tightly for fear of falling, and the smile on her face gradually converged.
Cang Linchen looked at her like this, gloating: "If you hold on like this, it's easier to fall." ”
When Concubine Xiang heard this, she hurriedly let go of her hand gripping the edge of the boat, looked at the faint smile on her face, and shrunk her body, trying to make herself less timid and not so funny.
"Ling'er tried to kill you, and you still have to intercede for her to save her life, it's really a master-servant!" Cang Linchen stopped looking at her, stood at the bow of the boat, looked at the shore that was slowly approaching, and said.
The boat rowed through the lake like an arrow, and the bow of the boat slashed in the water, and the splash hit the board of the bow of the boat, and the ripples spread.
He knew everything in his heart, including Ling'er and Concubine Xiang actually wanted to kill Xia Yinhuan, and stealing chickens was not a counter-erosion, but a handful of rice was skillfully resolved by Xia Yinhuan.
But when he asked, it was just a sneer, just imagine how a servant who plotted to kill his master could save her life.
When Concubine Xiang heard this, her face turned red and white, and there were thorns in her words, and she could hear it and replied after a moment of silence: "She is a good slave, even if she is wrong, it is also in the past, and she will not repay her grievances with virtue." ”
Cang Linchen sneered and said nothing, what to repay grievances with virtue, the two of them naturally want to hug each other for the tiger, and they can say this kind of thing.
The boat was already close to the shore, and Ander also took a hand, watched the boat approach, bent down and grabbed the edge of the boat and leaned the boat against the desk.
Cang Rinchen took the lead and stepped ashore from the boat in a big stride, and said lightly to Ande: "Let's go, go back to Fengqi Palace." ”
Ande responded, and hurriedly followed Cang Rinchen, although he didn't know what Concubine Xiang and Cang Rinchen said when they got along alone on the boat, but seeing Cang Rinchen's complexion, it was as cold as a layer of ice, which was obviously not a good thing.
Seeing Cang Rin leaving without looking back, Concubine Xiang went from the bow of the boat to the shore, Yan Ling hurriedly supported her, but she threw her hand away.
Yan Ling knew that Concubine Xiang didn't like her, so she hung her head aggrievedly, didn't dare to say anything, obediently followed behind her, and didn't dare to ask any more.
In Fengqi Palace, Xia Yinhuan embroidered her mandarin duck handkerchief, and Liuli was already so anxious that she was pacing outside the hall, sometimes raising her eyes to see if anyone outside the hall had returned, and sometimes cursing in a low voice.
It's been half an hour since then, Cang Rinchen hasn't come back yet, it's been almost half an hour, she really thinks that Cang Rinchen will follow Concubine Xiang, maybe she will never return to Fengqi Palace.
Liuli people were worried, and after a while, I saw someone enter the door of the compound, only to see that Cang Linchen was still wearing the dragon robe, and he was limping behind him, accompanied by a delicate-looking palace maid.
Liuli's eyes lit up, but her heart vanished, and she hurriedly ran into the hall and shouted: "Niangniang, Niangniang, the emperor is back." ”
Xia Yinhuan was concentrating on embroidering patterns, and when she heard her exclaim like this, she almost pricked her hand, raised her eyes and saw Liuli running closer, and couldn't help but say, "Can you not be surprised?" ”
Liuli listened to her disgusted words, and she didn't get angry, but laughed even more: "Niangniang, Your Majesty didn't go to Fengle Palace with Concubine Xiang, it seems that Your Majesty still loves Niangniang very much." ”
"Just you talk a lot." Xia Yinhuan really wanted to knock on the door of her head with one hand to see what was in her head, always chattering in her ear all day long, and her spirit was overzeal.
Liuli grinned, suddenly patted her head and thought of something, and suddenly realized: "Oops, it's almost noon, it's time to prepare lunch." ”
After speaking, before Xia Yinhuan could react, she rushed out of the palace like a gust of wind, watching her leave, Xia Yinhuan sighed helplessly, she was a blessing that she had cultivated for several lifetimes, and she actually met Liuli, a girl who didn't understand the rules.
After collecting the needle and thread, he put aside the outline of the mandarin duck silk and silk, and saw Cang Linchen slowly walking in, walking leisurely in front of her, and paused.
Xia Yinhuan glanced at him, lowered his head and pulled the red thread out of the pinhole, and replaced it with a black thread through it, as if he didn't care about Cang Rinchen's going.
Cang Linchen noticed the silk silk she put aside, looked at the pattern outlined by the red thread, and asked in surprise, "You actually know how to embroider?" ”
Xia Yinhuan didn't even raise his head, still didn't pay attention to him, he picked up the silk silk and looked at it for a moment, and then asked, "But, why do you embroider ducks?" ”
Xia Yinhuan raised her head and glared at him, snatched the silk silk in her hand, and sneered at each other: "You are the duck, your family is a duck!" ”
Cang Linchen naturally didn't understand the deeper meaning of his words, he was stunned, squatted down and leaned against her, seeing that she picked up the needle and thread intently, and threaded the needle and thread the needle and thread it against the pinhole, but the thread missed the pinhole several times in a row, and could not pass through it smoothly.
"Why are you so stupid!" Cang Linchen couldn't look at it, and reached out to take the needle and thread in her hand, and wanted to thread the needle for her with his own hands.
"Don't move!" Xia Yinhuan scolded, frowning and slightly displeased: "I can do it myself!" ”
When she said this, Cang Linchen had no choice but to give up, and continued to watch her thread the needle, and she was almost sleepy when she saw it, so she successfully passed the thread through the small needle hole. Carefully pointed hands pulled the thread through it, and with a shake of the hand, the thread fell off the eye of the needle.
"I'll do it anyway." Cang Linchen sighed, Xia Yinhuan was clumsy, he didn't know it on the first day, he reached out to get the needle, this time Xia Yinhuan didn't take it.
Let Cang Rinchen take the needle in his hand, first brushed the seriously split thread, a pair of dark eyes stared at the needle hole tightly, quickly sent the thread, surprisingly immediately passed through the needle eye.
"Here's it." He pulled out a large section of the black line, and then sent it to Xia Yinhuan again.
Xia Yinhuan took it, didn't say a word, took the silk silk on the table, and began to embroider the mandarin duck again, she didn't refer to the picture, and she didn't know how to embroider.
I had to embroider the outline first, then embroider the eyes, and then fill in other colors, the butterfly she embroidered in Lian Wangfu last time was lost in Lian Wangfu before she finished embroidering.
"Are you angry?" Cang Rinchen asked softly as he watched her begin to thread the needle through the white silk, and looked at her face for a moment, trying to see what she was thinking at the moment from her expression.
"What can I be angry about?" Xia Yinhuan replied in a calm voice, devoting himself to the great cause of embroidering mandarin ducks. If she was angry, she would have been angry a long time ago, and he and Xiangfei Qingyang Lake should be angry if they were boating for half an hour. However, she was not happy that Concubine Xiang's purpose of coming to ask for peace turned out to be close to Cang Linchen in disguise, which was annoying.
Cang Linchen didn't see any strange expression on her face, his brows didn't wrinkle, he half-believed her words, and said again: "Then do you want to know what Concubine Xiang said about the boat?"
"I don't want to." Xia Yinhuan rejected bluntly again, what could she say, didn't she just want to get close to Cang Rinchen, she didn't want to listen to her lingering love words, thinking about it made her feel a chill.
