Chapter 555 Don't Choke Chapter 556 Freshness

After Hongluan found the stain, the more she thought about it, the more incomprehensible she became, her gaze couldn't help but drift over several times, and she didn't mean to avoid Concubine Rong at all, so she was naturally discovered by Concubine Rong; She looked at the stains on her skirt: "It's not the reckless palace man just now, Bengong is in a good mood today, and the evening chrysanthemums in that place are blooming very well, so Bengong wants to draw a picture of sunset chrysanthemums; As soon as I got there, I asked people to clear the surroundings, and the palace ordered people to put out the four treasures of the study, and went over to see the chrysanthemums. ”

"The chrysanthemum is really good, although it blooms a little too much, but it has another charm; Hongu was fascinated by it, but unexpectedly, a person ran from the corner over there, and hit Hongu's body like that, making Hongu's clothes look like this. She shook her head: "You came over unintentionally to save her, otherwise how could this palace let her go like that; By the way, this palace forgot to ask her which palace she belongs to."

She looked at the female officer beside her with annoyance, but found that the female officer also shook her head, which made her even more annoyed.

Hongluan sighed repeatedly: "It's the mother who can't bear to punish her." She still had doubts in her heart, although the person who was concubine Rong was indeed carrying a box and a light table, and it could be seen that she was really ready to come out to paint; But the white azaleas that were blooming in her heart flashed in her heart, and Concubine Rong's smile and the azaleas complemented each other, which really meant that people were more delicate than flowers.

Concubine Rong said that she likes azaleas; Originally, there were only red azaleas in the palace, because yellow and white azaleas are poisonous - don't the imperial doctors know about this? Rhododendron is not a wild grass and wild flower in the field, the imperial doctors should know, right? There are many words that are not wrong, but the Imperial Garden just has white and yellow rhododendrons.

Also, the stain on Rong Concubine's dress was damp soil, and the same dirt was still on the bluestone slab not far from where she had been sitting in the Imperial Garden; In addition to the soil, the bluestone slab also had some broken fibrous roots, and Hongluan couldn't tell what kind of flowers and plants they were, but they were very similar to the roots of the things planted in the flowerbed where a few flowers and plants had been lost.

It is impossible for a palace person to play with dirt, but it is very likely that she stole flowers and plants and got her hands dirty; And the stains on Concubine Rong's dress can't tell if it's grabbed by hand: didn't Concubine Rong see the flowers and plants held in the hands of the palace people? However, Concubine Rong did not mention a word in her words.

Hongluan praised Concubine Rong for a few words and said, "But that palace person really should say something, how could he move those dirt?" They are the ones who serve their masters, and they are really a little unseemly. She just complained softly, and then changed the topic: "The pattern of the mother's hundred flowers has come out, right?" There are a lot of mistakes, but they are from the hands of the mother? ”

Concubine Rong nodded: "That's it, the next time I let this palace see her, I will definitely ask someone to send her to her master, it's really unbearable; Then he looked at Hongluan and said with a smile: "Half of it is painted by the palace, and the other half is painted by your concubine Jing Niangniang; When the time comes, you will see that the painting is very smart, it is the handwriting of Jing Concubine Niangniang, and as for those rigid ones, they are from the hands of this palace. ”

Hongluan owed: "Niangniang is humble, if the slave has the ability of the mother, the slave can show off to others." She didn't mention the palace person again, as if she didn't come to deal with Concubine Rong for that palace person; And Concubine Rong didn't talk about the people in the palace again, but just talked to Hongluan about her hundred flowers.

The Chengshan Palace, which was self-contained, left, and the sun was already in the west; Hongluan didn't know if Gu Anping was still by the lake, so she hurried back with Xing'er: her earrings and concubines had been found.

Thinking of Concubine Rong's words and deeds, Hongluan's heart was a little heavy; When I arrived at the lake, it was already dark, and the sun had completely sunk: it was really Rong Concubine who pulled her and said that the time for that hundred flowers was a little too long. She already hoped that she would see Gu Anping today, but fortunately, she promised Concubine Rou that she would not get things done today.

Let's talk about it tomorrow, Hongluan ran out of breath, took Xing'er's hand and bent down to slow down, looking at the dark lake without a little light, knowing that Gu Anping had left; Gu Anping is now the emperor's close attendant, and there are not so many times when he can leave.

"Well, go back, I'm hungry too;" Hongluan stroked her stomach: "I haven't eaten much at Roufei Niangniang, and now my feet are a little weak." ”

Xing'er nodded and replied, "That's it, I'm also hungry, as long as I can fill my stomach." When she straightened up after speaking, she was startled: "Meng, Lord Meng"

Commander Meng smiled and handed Xing'er a small paper bag: "Buns, it's still hot, see how many you can eat." ”

Xing'er took it blankly, looked at Hongluan holding the bun and said, "I'm going to find some tea, but I can't choke to death by the bun." Without waiting for Hongluan to answer, she disappeared without a trace.

The night wind blew, and the cold of early winter came to the lake, which made Hongluan shiver gently; She stroked her arms: "Brother Meng is waiting for me on behalf of Brother Anping?" "No mistakes, no skipping words. To be honest, she was always a little awkward when she was alone with Commander Meng, and if she didn't speak, she would be embarrassed.

Commander Meng looked at her and gave her another paper bag: "Two buns to pad your stomach, it's still hot; Come to my side and eat against the wind, or your stomach will hurt. He said in a very bland way: "There is also a small jug of water, not wine, but in a jug; It shouldn't burn your mouth when you drink it now. ”

Hongluan was really hungry, and she couldn't care about being polite to Commander Meng - Xing'er ran too fast with the buns just now, otherwise she would definitely have to let Xing'er leave a few buns; She didn't expect the appearance of virtuous and virtuous people, so she obediently avoided Lord Meng's side, opened her mouth and swallowed a bun in three or two bites.

Master Meng's eyes flashed with a little pity, but with a bit of amusement, he naturally reached out and patted her back and handed over the small wine jug: "Eat some water, don't choke." "It's like telling Apricot just now, but it's a little different.

Hongluan poured a few mouthfuls of water, took another bite of the bun and said indistinctly: "How do you know that I'm hungry?" I was so hungry that my hands and feet went limp, and my head was sweating. Thank you, Brother Meng. ”

Commander Meng just shook his head and didn't speak, watching Hongluan swallow the second bun, and then gave her the wine jug to let her drink; No matter how useful it is, it is better to do more; And there are really not many things he can do, and he can't help but sigh softly in his heart when he thinks of this.

In fact, watching Hongluan gobble up like this is also a kind of happiness; A smile flashed in his eyes, but there was a hint in it that he didn't even notice it.

Chapter 556: Freshness

Hongluan stroked his stomach after eating the buns, and he was a little unsatisfied, the buns in the palace were too small; However, she felt a lot more comfortable under the two buns, and drank a lot of hot tea, and the cold wind by the lake was not so cold.

Commander Meng saw Hongluan's coldness, but he didn't untie his big hat to Hongluan, but just walked by her side and tried to turn sideways to cover most of the cold wind for her; Seeing Hongluan's expression, he remembered the appearance of the kitten who was not full of fish but was too lazy to move to stretch his waist, and smiled silently: "Are you still hungry?" Bear with it for a while, the two buns will be the top thing; In a little while you'll be well fed. ”

"I'm afraid that you will hurt your body by eating too fast and too hard, so you can't eat too much at night;" He looked at the slight change in his tone in front of him, but it was not easy for people to notice: "Take a few steps quickly, you can't let the emperor wait too long." ”

Hongluan was stunned when he heard this: "Your Majesty? Lord Meng, didn't you come on behalf of Brother Anping, I just want you to tell the emperor......"

Commander Meng interrupted Hongluan's words and glanced at her: "It's not me who came to win people on behalf of Grandpa Daigu. He didn't say any more, and his feet quickened slightly.

Hongluan was slightly startled: "Ah-" Then he didn't speak again, and suddenly he was very embarrassed and didn't know how to say it; The warmth just now seems to have all flown away.

Commander Meng suddenly pinched her nose, and moved quickly: "Silly girl, what do you want?" Hurry up and go to see the emperor, Father-in-law Gu is your Brother Anping, and I am also your eternal Brother Meng; Go, many people in the palace know that you are my ——, sister-in-law. The last sentence seemed to be half a point lighter, and it didn't seem to be, and Hongluan couldn't tell it.

She glanced at Commander Meng, and her heart was slightly sore: "Brother Meng......" said, in fact, it is useless and redundant.

Commander Meng gently nudged her: "Go, the emperor has been waiting for you for a long time." He stood still, watching Hongluan walk into the pavilion by the lake.

The pavilion was darkened with candles and candles, so that you could not see the candles from a distance, but thought it was moonlight or starlight reflected in the lake.

Hongluan didn't look back, she closed her eyes and put her mind on the pavilion: Some people and some things are really good to you if you are ruthless, and if you are soft, you are harming others; She understands, so she has to be hard-hearted.

The pavilion no longer has its original appearance, the pavilion has more walls, and there are doors and windows; She rubbed her eyes in disbelief, made sure that it was true, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: Could it be that this is the benefit of being an emperor, as long as the emperor wants to level the ground, he can also build a tall building.

Shrugging her shoulders, she walked towards the pavilion, and when she got closer, she saw Gu Anping and Manager Liu standing outside the pavilion door; Seeing her Gu Anping's eyes flashed, but he bowed slightly and didn't speak: he didn't say it, those words of concern were all in his eyes, and Hongluan could understand it.

Manager Liu looked at Hongluan and nodded, didn't speak, just gently pushed open the door of the pavilion and motioned for her to enter.

Hongluan knew that Manager Liu could not be underestimated, but he had never had the opportunity to befriend Manager Liu without leaving a trace, so he could only bow slightly at this time, and then went in through the door.

Turning the screen, the stone table in the middle of the pavilion was gone, and it was replaced by a large mahogany table, and the emperor sat at the table and looked at Hongluan and smiled: "But you're hungry, right?" No mistakes, a lot of words, I heard people say that you have a busy day, I have asked people to prepare meals, and they will deliver them in a while. ”

Hongluan swallowed the words that came to his mouth when he heard this: "Emperor Xie." She looked at the emperor: "The slave has something to go back to the emperor." "It's better to get down to business.

It's not that she is so nervous when she sees the emperor now, but according to the emperor's temperament, even if he treats her well, he has the whole world in his heart; She must know that it is important to the emperor, so that the emperor can really value her.

There are more women in the palace, and using flowers as a metaphor is really a hundred flowers blooming, and if you take one out, you are much stronger than her; Since inquiring about Mama Gong's last words, she has also pondered for a long time: in fact, she is different from other women in the palace in that she may be all the wildness of a beggar.

This kind of wildness is not to say that it is a woman in the palace, and even ordinary village girls are rare: village girls do not have to compete with wild dogs for food, nor do they have to learn to kill dogs to satisfy hunger; Fresh, different, as King Fu said—you're funny.

But how long can this freshness be maintained? And the emperor is not a lustful person, and it is absolutely not enough to be always by his side and keep him in his heart, and only freshness is absolutely insufficient; If you can help him, it will be different, but be careful not to be self-defeating.

The emperor was not an incompetent and cowardly man, on the contrary, he was extremely shrewd and capable, and such a man did not need a woman to dictate him, let alone a woman more shrewd and capable than him to accompany him: men were arrogant, and royal men were even more so. Proportion, what Hongluan wants to do is to master the proportion, so that the emperor can pay attention to her but will not dislike her for being too talkative and troublesome.

The Israelite waiter didn't say that she didn't have that capital, and even if she did, she wouldn't be able to last long; She wants to stay in the palace for the rest of her life, and after taking revenge, she wants to live more comfortably, and she doesn't want to live with herself; If you want to live comfortably in the palace, it would be delusional without the emperor's attention.

After meeting the emperor, although he heard the emperor say some soft homely words, Hongluan still blurted out serious things: things will not be more important than the emperor's affairs.

The emperor looked at Hongluan and nodded: "Well, that's what I'm here for." "It's not that he doesn't have a trace of regret, because he can come because he wants to see Hongluan and talk to Hongluan; But the current situation is clearer than Hongluan, the dark tide in the outer court is turbulent, and there is always an overt or dark relationship with some people in the palace.

So he was more happy and relieved when he heard Hongluan's words, and his heart was warm: his Luan'er wanted to tell him so anxiously, not because he invited merit but because he cared about him.

Hongluan told all the things about Concubine Li and Concubine Rou, and when she talked about Yuanhua's affairs, she was a lot more careful in her wording; Yuanhua is not Concubine Rou and Concubine Li, because the two concubines will soon become concubines, but Yuanhua is the emperor's pillow, and the palace has always changed for no reason, God knows if Yuanhua will be held by the emperor one day.

At least, she has learned Yuan Hua's tricks, so let's be careful in everything: Yuan Hua is such a smart person, he should know how to entrap the emperor, right? There are many mistakes, and she doesn't want to steal chickens and rice.

After finishing speaking, Hongluan took out the medicine that Yuanhua gave her, and only took out a little bit of another package: "Some things are not good to put on the table now; But the slave maid thinks it's better to let the emperor know. ”

The emperor's face changed a few times, and then he summoned Manager Liu to hand him the medicine.

The third will come later, asking for all kinds of support
