"Wan Yan Ronglie wants to exchange millions of gold and peace with the two countries in exchange for you, and the conditions offered are extremely generous. You say, "Do I change it, or do I not change it?" ”

Su Wenmei raised her head, faced Cheng Qian's inquiring gaze, felt a little temptation from him, felt cold, and a little ridiculous, and simply said: "If the emperor thinks that the benefits given by Huihong are higher than the psychological value of the concubines to the emperor, then the emperor will call the shots." ”

His brows furrowed: "Are you willing to go and kiss?" ”

"The previous dynasty was not without precedents, if the emperor insisted on this, the concubines were also willing to make a contribution to the Xiling Kingdom. What's more, the concubines are soft-spoken, how can the words of the emperor have weight? Su Wenmei looked at Cheng Qian, and looked at him motionlessly.

Although she was cold, she seemed to be sure that he would not be willing to let her go to kiss.

Cheng Qian's anger that had just calmed down was instigated by her words again, and the chess pieces in his hand fell, leaving no room for it: "Don't leave a piece of armor!" You lose. ”

The black on the chessboard was eaten clean by the white seeds.

Cheng Qian said, got up and went out of Jinyun Palace without any nostalgia.

He went to Zhuang Xianren's Fangyi Palace.

"Your Majesty." Zhuang Xianren took a plate of fruit washed by Ruoli and put it in front of Cheng Qian: "Here is the concubine, I just got some new green jade dates a few days ago, and the emperor can taste them more." ”

He glanced at Zhuang Xianren, picked up a date, and put it in his mouth: "It's still a virtuous concubine who is sensible and considerate, and you really make me feel comfortable here." ”

"Have you heard about my trip to Jinyun Palace?"

Zhuang Xianren looked at him suspiciously. Cheng Qian came out of Jinyun Palace for only a short while, and she didn't know the affairs of Jinyun Palace so quickly.

"The concubine didn't hear about it. The emperor is in Jinyun Palace, and he has trouble with Concubine Wen? Zhuang Xianren looked at Cheng Qian and asked. Cheng Qian has a gentle temperament and rarely loses his temper. Now that there is such a master in Jinyun Palace, I often hear that Cheng Qian entered Jinyun Palace with a smile and came out angrily.

"Sort of." Cheng Qian smiled bitterly: "It's still a virtuous concubine who is gentle and considerate, and she has won my heart." As he spoke, he reached out and touched the hair on her forehead, Zhuang Xianren was flattered, lowered his head, and smiled brightly at Cheng Qian.

"However, the Queen Mother is very old, and the Imperial Doctor said that she needs to recuperate and not move. I don't want anything about Su Wenmei to fall into the ears of the Queen Mother, otherwise, it will not be good for the Queen Mother to be angry. ”

"Virtuous concubine, you are the head of the six palaces, I believe that you can handle some things." Cheng Qian said softly and withdrew his hand.

The smile on Zhuang Xianren's face froze, and he said, "Yes." ”

"It's just that the deep palace is lonely, and the sisters are inevitably homesick in the palace, and the queen mother has also admonished her many times, so that the emperor will be wet with rain and dew. If I care about one person in the sky, then the harem woman is afraid that she will live like a year. ”

Cheng Qian's eyebrows furrowed slightly: "What the concubine said is extremely true. ”

Cheng Qian had dinner in the palace of Zhuang Xianren before returning to the Qianzheng Palace to deal with government affairs.

Concubine Xian knelt on the ground and saluted to send off the emperor, and after Cheng Qian left, her smile froze on her face.

"Mother." Ruoli stepped forward to help her: "The emperor is coming to see Niangniang every three or five days, why is Niangniang not very happy to see it today?" ”

Concubine Xian glanced at her: "Don't you think, the emperor came to Fangyi Palace for another purpose?" ”

Ruoli looked at her blankly, and Concubine Xian sneered: "Don't tell this palace, you really think that the emperor came today because he was thinking about this palace!" ”

Ruo Li recalled what Cheng Qian had said in Fangyi Palace, and he understood.

Late at night, Xiao Lizi asked as usual: "Your Majesty, today, did you turn over the cards?" ”

"Bring it in."

"Yes." Xiao Lizi received the order and asked the little eunuch below to present the green head card: "Your Majesty, look at which lady's palace are you going to tonight?" ”

Cheng Qian flipped over Hui Concubine's green card: "Just her." ”

"Yes. The slave went to prepare a sedan chair and took Hui Concubine to the main hall. Xiao Lizi said, and was about to retreat.

"No need, I'll just go by myself later."

It was late at night, and Cheng Qian came out of the Qianzheng Hall and walked towards Zhongxiu Palace.

Concubine Hui received the will, and she was already ready and waiting in front of Zhongxiu Palace. Seeing the emperor's sedan chair coming, he knelt down far away.

Cheng Qian got off the sedan chair and said to Qian Hui, who was kneeling on the ground: "Get up, how long have you been blowing the wind?" ”

"When the concubine heard that the emperor was coming, she waited at the gate of Zhongxiu Palace." Qian Hui got up: "It's even deeper, the emperor should hurry in." ”

"Hmm." Cheng Qian responded, and walked into Zhongxiu Palace by himself, followed by Qian Hui.

"Your Majesty." Qian Hui walked to the door, knelt down as if he had made up his mind, and said, "Your Majesty, do you remember the agreement between me and you?" ”

"I remember." Cheng Qian glanced at her: "I'm not interested, I want a woman with another man in her heart." ”

Qian Hui relieved his heart, got up and walked to the emperor, and handed the hot tea in Zhilan's hand: "Your Majesty, drink a cup of hot tea." ”

At this time, Su Wenmei was tasting the peach blossom brew in late spring in the palace, and Bing'er came in and said, "Concubine Wen, Concubine Niangniang is asking to see her outside." ”

Concubines? Su Wenmei thought secretly. Concubine, is it the mother who once wore a mask when she asked for peace? I have never crossed paths with her, and I haven't even said a word, why did she come?

Su Wenmei said with doubts: "You invite her in." ”

The concubine came in and smiled softly: "Concubine Wen." The concubine recently asked the small kitchen to make some new peach blossom cakes, and heard that there was a good peach blossom brew in the Niangniang Palace, so she came uninvited. Niangniang won't, she dislikes concubines, right? ”

"Where's the word? The palace is lonely, and the sisters often come to be companions, so it seems more lively. Su Wenmei smiled and instructed Bing'er: "You go and stuff more peach blossoms, and make a few snacks and side dishes." The palace and the concubines are in a good place, let's pass the time. ”

"Yes." Bing'er replied: "In the morning, the slave maid listened to the mother, and took the pot of peach blossom brew and gave it to Hui Concubine Niangniang, and Hui Concubine Niangniang also liked it." ”

Su Wenmei smiled, sat opposite the concubine, and tasted the wine, until the night gradually deepened, and the concubine got up and left.

"Mother." Bing'er looked at the back of Hui Concubine leaving and said: "Now, in addition to Hui Concubine Niangniang, who often comes to visit Niangniang, there is one more concubine, which shows that not everyone in the palace is inclined to be inflammatory." ”

Su Wenmei frowned: "Having said that, I always feel that the concubine feels weird." She shook her head, "Maybe I'm thinking too much." ”

Late at night, in Zhongxiu Palace, the two were about to rest, and Xiao Lizi came to communicate: "Your Majesty, Xiangyu next to the concubine Niangniang came to ask to see, saying that the concubine Niangniang was suddenly infected with a disease and had a rash all over her body, and she called out to the emperor in a daze, do you want to go and see?" ”

"Concubine?" Cheng Qian frowned, as if he didn't remember this person.

"Sun Xing, the daughter of Sun Xing, the servant of the ministry, is the one who lives in Jingming Palace." Xiao Lizi reminded: "Does the emperor want to go and see?" ”

Cheng Qian frowned: "That's it, I haven't slept yet, so let's go and take a look." ”

He followed Concubine Hui and a group of palace maids in the direction of Jingming Palace.

When I entered the palace, I saw that the concubine's exposed wrists and neck had dense peanut-sized red bumps, and her face was also scratched red. When she saw the emperor coming, she turned over from the bed and stretched out her hand to pull his sleeve: "Your Majesty, the emperor wants to be the master of his concubines!" The concubine has a rash on her body, and she is so uncomfortable......"

Cheng Qian was disgusted and wanted to withdraw his hand, but it was not too obvious in public, so he had to say: "Be the master, what is the master?" What happened to the concubine today? ”

"Your Majesty, the concubine is in Concubine Wen's palace today, drank a few cups of peach blossom brew, and ate some snacks. The concubine saw that she had been depressed recently, and she was kind enough to accompany her, but she didn't expect ......" The concubine lowered her head and covered her nose with a handkerchief, and cried loudly: "I didn't expect it, people's hearts are unpredictable......"

Seeing that the situation was wrong, Concubine Hui took advantage of the fact that people's attention was on the concubine, and immediately said to Zhilan: "You go to Jinyun Palace quickly, and tell Concubine Wen about Jingming Palace in 1510, so that she can prepare early." ”

Cheng Qian listened to the concubine's words, and was somewhat unhappy in his heart. Even if there is a gap between him and Su Wenmei, she has always been the white moonlight in his heart - he will never believe that she is a person who would do such a thing. Cheng Qian grew up in the harem, and he still knows some of the tricks of open and secret fighting in the harem.

It's just superficial effort, or do you have to do enough: "Have you seen it?" How so? ”

Imperial Doctor Chu on the side stood up: "Emperor Qi, Weichen diagnosed that the concubine Niangniang took a large amount of Tianhuang to cause heat in the body and induce urticaria. For specific diet and daily life, you still have to ask the concubine. ”

"It's her, it must be her!" The concubine cried: "The concubine is in her own palace, and everything is normal in her diet, but today I ate and drank in Concubine Wen's palace for a while, and that's it." Your Majesty, Concubine Wen Niangniang, who you have been spoiling, what a femme fatale she is! ”

Cheng Qian felt extremely disgusted with the concubine in his heart, but he still suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "Go and pass Concubine Wen to come over." ”

"Concubine." Xiao Lizi received the will and didn't go out yet, when she heard Su Wenmei's voice sounding outside: "I heard that the concubine Niangniang has an emergency, and the palace has come to visit." ”

Su Wenmei said and entered the hall (Su Wenmei is a concubine, and there is no need to pass it on to concubines who are lower than herself), and knelt on the ground: "The concubine is the emperor." ”

Behind her, seven or eight palace maids held the leftover wine and food left over from eating and drinking with the concubines today. The concubine didn't expect her to come so quickly, and she faintly felt bad in her heart.

"Get up. The matter of the concubine has something to do with you, I originally wanted Xiao Lizi to pass on to you, so you came by yourself. ”

When the concubine heard that the concubine had an emergency, she was anxious, so she hurried over. However, outside the palace, the concubines heard from afar that the concubines were sick because they ate the food in the palace? Su Wenmei said, looking at the concubine who was half-sitting up on the bed.
