Wen Qingwu ignored it, but Liu Ye sat on the threshold with a pestle, looking at the scene outside the hall.

At noon, Wen Qingwu was practicing his arm strength in the hall, when he heard the sharp voice of Yuanli outside: "Nanxun Hall Guo talent, can the public lose talent?" ”

Liuji glanced outside the hall and said, "Master, it's Yuanli." ”

Wen Qingwu didn't respond, but the willow leaves on the threshold outside stood up. looked at Yuanli outside and asked, "Yuanli father-in-law, what's the matter?" ”

Yuan Li's disdainful voice came: "Concubine Shuniang, I have invited two talented people to go to the Yiluan Hall to talk about it." ”

"Then please my master?" Liu Ye put the cloth basket and asked again. In her opinion, although Yuanli's father-in-law looks a little fierce, he is still very good.

This time, Yuan Li didn't respond, and left with a "hum" from his nose.

Then I heard the woman's laughter: "It's funny." ”

Liu Ye stood on the threshold and watched Guo Zhi and Gong Yi'an leave hand in arm, feeling so dazzling. He snorted unhappily and turned around and walked into the main hall.

"Master, the Guo Cai and the Gong Cai people next door were summoned by Concubine Shuniang!" Liu Ye looked unhappy.

Wen Qingwu raised his head and looked at the willow leaves.

Liu Ye sat aside with the cloth basket in his arms, and said sullenly: "Isn't it the master who is obviously good friends with the lady concubine, why doesn't the mother ask the master to go together." She still remembers that when she first met Cairen, the talented people got up in the middle of the night and went to the Hanlian pond to pick the Hanlian that bloomed early for the concubine. The women in the harem really can't understand it.

Ruyoshi looked at the willow leaves. Liu Ye didn't go to the Yiluan Hall yesterday morning, but he went with him.

Seeing that Wen Qingwu was still holding the empty bow and practicing his arm strength, he ignored Liu Ye, thought about it, and said, "Liu Ye, there are some things you don't have to think too much about. ”

Liu Ye was puzzled and looked up at Ruyoshi: "What do you mean?" ”

"Just do what your master says." Liuji said: "If the master doesn't say it, don't do more, don't ask more." ”

I don't know why, but the meaning is clear. Liu Ye thought about it, and seeing that Wen Qingwu didn't speak, he nodded and said, "Yes." ”

In the Yiluan Palace, since the Yuan Rite gave people, Concubine Mei Shufei let people enter the Yiluan Palace.

"Concubine Guo Zhi/Gong Yi'an, see Concubine Shuniang, Niangniang Jin'an." Guo Zhi and Gong Shu'an stood on the main hall and saluted Concubine Mei Shu, who was eating.

"Excuse me, sit down." Concubine Mei Shufei sat upright, put down the bamboo chopsticks in her hand, took the Jinpa handed by Bi'er and pressed the corner of her mouth: "It just so happens that the palace is having lunch." Two sisters available? ”

Guo Zhi and Gongyi, who were sitting down, heard the words, looked at Concubine Mei Shu, surprised and delighted, and felt that Concubine Mei Shufei was dignified and close, and she was really the gentle and virtuous person that outsiders said.

Although the palace concubines are all sisters, how can the fourth concubine be called a little talented sister?

"Thank you Sister Shufei for your concern, use it!" Guo Zhi got up with a delicate smile on her face.

Gong An behind him got up, his voice was a little small, and he said with a cower: "Back to Concubine Shu, the concubine also used it." ”

Concubine Mei nodded and said in a gentle voice: "Hmm."

How is it about staying in the South Kaoru Hall these days? ”

"Thanks to Sister Shufei's arrangement," Guo Zhi replied, "everything is fine." ”

Concubine Mei Shufei saw that Gong Yi An next to her didn't speak, picked a piece of clothed vegetables, and looked up at her again: "What about Gong Yi's sister?"

"If you go back to your mother, everything is fine." Gong Yian sat stiffly and replied in a low voice.

When the words fell, Bi'er had already brought up two cups of tea and placed them in front of the two.

"This is Hedongdao's new tea this year, try it." Concubine Mei said casually while picking up the prepared dishes.

When Guo Zhi heard this, she immediately took a few sips, nodded and praised: "It's really good tea!" As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Gong Yi An and said, "Yes, Gong Yi sister." ”

"Hmm." Gong Yi took a sip, replied vaguely, and put the tea down.

"I like to take some back later." Concubine Mei Shufei said, put down the bamboo chopstick, and ordered: "Zhu'er, bring some back to Guo Cairen and Gongyi Cairen." ”

"Yes." Zhu Er responded, packed a pack, and handed it to Guo Zhi and Gong Yi'an.

Guo Zhi happily took it, looked at Concubine Mei and said, "Thank you, Sister Concubine!" ”

Seeing that Guo Zhi took it, Gong Yi took it hesitantly, looked up at Concubine Mei timidly, and bowed and whispered, "Thank you, Concubine Shuniang." ”

"After drinking, there is still something here in the main palace." Concubine Mei said, stretched out her hand and pressed her forehead, as if she was tired: "This tea is not much this year, and it is still precious in the harem." It's enough for two younger sisters, but there's no more. ”

Gong Yi'an lowered his head and looked at the tea in his hand with a complicated expression.

Guo Zhi didn't understand what Concubine Mei meant, and was about to ask, so she heard her say again: "If the other people in Nanxun Hall want to eat, the sisters don't have enough to give." ”

Guo Zhi was stunned at first, and then suddenly smiled: "Yes!" The concubine knew. "If the family can send her to the palace, naturally they won't choose a fool to come.

"Okay, I'm tired of this palace, so let's step down." Concubine Mei raised her head and nodded with satisfaction at the knowledgeable Guo Zhi.

Guo Zhi and Gong An both responded: "Yes." The concubine retired. ”

Walking outside the Yiluan Palace, Guo Zhi walked one step ahead quickly, and Gong An walked one step behind a little slower.

The two walked on the palace road one after the other. Guo Zhi turned his head to look around, and the entire harem was extremely quiet in the silent afternoon. At this time, Guo Zhi turned her head and looked at Gong Yi An, with a mysterious expression: "Sister Gong Yi, do you know what Concubine Mei means by looking for us today?" ”

Gong Yian raised his head and looked at Guo Zhi. No nodding or shaking his head.

"Hey, I think you're really stupid, how can you survive in this harem without me!" Guo Zhi said, turned her head to look around again, slowed down, and said to Gong Yi: "Today, Concubine Mei only called you and me over, and suddenly sent tea." No matter how good the tea in Hedong Province is, it's just to beat us. ”

Guo Zhi said, looked at Gong Yi'an, who hung his head and didn't say a word, his face was as timid as usual, and sighed: "For the sake of the two of us entering the palace together, I will make it clear to you." ”

Gong Yian looked up at Guo Zhi.

"Concubine Shu, this means, let us snub that Wen Cairen." Guo Zhi said.

It's not a snub, it's a deal. Gong Yi'an looked at Guo Zhi: "What does my sister mean?" She rubbed her fingertips, a little uneasy. Although before entering the palace, her father had instructed that the harem could not be guarded against open and secret fighting, she thought that it would only be until the nine concubines had the emperor's favor.

I don't want to be a small talent, so I'm going to get involved.

"What do you mean?" Guo Zhi seemed to have heard a joke, looked at Gong Yi An and said speechlessly: "Hey, do you think we still have a choice?"

On both sides, a lady concubine who is in power in the harem, and the other is just a talented person who is not treated well by the emperor. We can't offend the lady for a little talent. ”
