Chapter 405: The road is narrow

In the early morning, the sunlight poured into the house through the window, Chu Lixue blinked her eyes lightly, reached out and probed, it turned out to be empty, this bastard, dare not return at night? It's hard to kneel on the washboard.

"Niangniang, the slave maid will wait for you to wash, and those new concubines will come to worship you in a while." Ning Xiang said softly.

"Well, okay, they will come in a while, let them enjoy the flowers in the courtyard first, look at the fish, and wait for the palace to freshen up, and then call them in." Chu Lixue said lightly.

In Cuining Palace, Concubine Shu was still asleep, and the little palace maid looked at her very anxiously, and it was about to be the time to worship the queen in a while, but her master was still sleeping. To say, it's no wonder that their master, the emperor came over last night, and the master must be too tired to sleep. The little palace maid thought secretly in her heart.

"Mother, wake up. I'm going to worship the queen in a while. The little palace maid reminded softly.

Hearing this, Concubine Shu slowly opened her eyes and looked at the little palace maid's delicate little face, "It's a shame that you woke me up, otherwise it will delay the big thing, by the way, what's your name?" ”

"Back to Niangniang, the slave's name is Jinse."

"Jinse? It's a good name, by the way, how long have you been in the palace? Concubine Shu got up and sat in front of the dressing table, letting Jin Se comb her long hair.

"Back to Niangniang, the slave maid has been in the palace for four years."

"Four years, then you should know all the rules in the palace, right?"

"Yes, Niangniang, is there anything that Niangniang asks to tell the slave?" Jin Se said with a wink.

Hearing Jin Se ask, Concubine Shu hooked her lips and smiled, sure enough, she was a clever girl, the Xiaomei she brought into the palace to serve was still a little reckless, if she was only allowed to serve closely, it would be fine, but to deal with the twists and turns in this palace, Xiaomei was still too simple.

Before entering the palace, her mother also told her that she had to learn to accept some people in the palace to do things for herself, and since this Jinse was interested in being loyal, then she should also give her this opportunity.

"Jin Se, we are going to worship the queen in a while, you have to tell me if the queen has any likes and dislikes." After speaking, Concubine Shu picked up a jade bracelet in the jewelry box, held Jin Se's hand, and brought the bracelet to her hand.

Seeing this, Jin Se was overjoyed, it seems that Niangniang wants to treat herself as a confidant, if she is the former Niangniang in the palace, then she must know everything and say everything, but now this one, the temperament is really elusive, she also once thought about taking refuge in the queen, how can people already have henchmen around them, and others can't get into it at all.

"Concubine Niangniang, our queen mother, her temperament is elusive, in the palace for almost a year, she always likes to wear some light-colored dresses, and the queen mother also planted various trees in the yard to ensure that all year round, there are flowers in her palace."

"Well, okay, I see, you go to the closet and bring me that light purple dress embroidered with butterflies." Concubine Shu said shallowly.

Since the queen likes light-colored clothes, it will not be wrong for her to wear light-colored clothes, and today, it is the new concubine who entered the palace to visit the queen, and the queen must be wearing the queen's clothes to look solemn.

When Concubine Shu came to the Jiuqu Corridor in a purple dress, she happened to meet Concubine De who came from Mengzhuang Palace on the opposite side, Peng Yuewan.

Peng Yuewan was waiting for Nangong Yihan's arrival last night, but she was told by the little palace maid who went to inquire that the emperor went to Concubine Shu.

Originally, Peng Yuewan felt that she was superior, her grandfather and father were all ranked as the third duke, why should she let the daughter of a palace scholar be the same as herself.

Peng Yuewan saw that Concubine Shu was rubbing her eyes, and she was even more angry, seeing that she didn't wake up, she was simply showing off that she had slept last night. Peng Yuewan didn't say a word, stepped forward and slapped Concubine Shu hard.

Concubine Shu's cold eyes swept over, "Peng Yuewan, why did you hit me?" You and I are both concubines, if you are in order, you are virtuous, you will be half a cut shorter than this palace. ”

It's good that Concubine Shu didn't say that, but as soon as this remark came out, it ignited the anger in Peng Yuewan's heart even more, "Xu Fei, do you think that when you went to bed last night, you won the emperor's favor?" You dream. Peng Yuewan roared.

And all this was seen by Zheng Qing and Lei Yufeng, who were not far away.

"Sister Zheng, these two people are really unruly, they actually did it in the palace, and they saw the queen mother for a while, do we have to tell the queen mother?" Lei Yufeng said softly.

Zheng Qing glanced at Lei Yufeng lightly, this woman was instigating herself to sue in front of the queen, if the queen was angry because of this and disposed of Concubine Shu and Concubine De, then she, the concubine who sued, would also not get any good fruit to eat. In the hearts of the emperor and queen, he will always be the one who makes small reports.

Thinking of this, Zheng Qing smiled faintly, "Sister Yufeng, let's just pretend that we didn't see what happened just now, everyone is new to the palace, don't let the queen think that we all like to cause trouble." ”

Zheng Qing also deliberately accentuated the tone of the four words of provoking right and wrong, that Lei Yufeng is not a fool, she also understands that now is not the time to bring down the opponent, but last night Concubine Shu had already gone to bed, among the nine of them, she was the first person, how could she be willing.

In the courtyard of Fengluan Palace, there are several large vats, a few goldfish and water lilies in the water tank, and the fragrance of flowers fills everyone's nostrils.

"The queen is really an elegant person, looking at the flowers in the yard, how good they are planted." A woman in a pale pink palace dress chuckled.

"Qi Meiren, don't you have any flowers and plants in your yard?" Lei Yufeng scoffed.

"Yes, I have a lot of trees in my house, my father said, the house is lush." Qi Lin said with a smile.

"Hahaha, lush? Then you might as well plant some more shrubs, and it will be even more dense. Lei Yufeng glanced at Qi Lin and said.

This guy is obviously not qualified to enter the palace, besides, she lost cooking on the day of the competition, but she took shit luck and let such a person enter the palace. If she doesn't strike well, will she be able to climb on her head in the future and make a threat?

The nine people stood in the courtyard of Fengluan Palace for a long time, and they didn't see the queen's intention to summon them.

Qi Lin gently beat his leg with his hand, standing for so long, and under the sun, but he was going to stun everyone.

"Aunt Remnant Xue, won't the queen mother not get up yet?" Qi Lin really couldn't wait, and stepped forward to ask.

"Niangniang has already gotten up, but I can't wait for you, Niangniang will read books and practice calligraphy, and when Niangniang finishes practicing calligraphy, I will summon you." Remnant Xue said lightly.

"What? Wait for the mother to finish practicing? How long will we have to wait? Qi Lin said unhappily.

"Qi Meiren, if you don't want to wait, then you can go back first." Remnant Xue said lightly.

"What? Let me go back? You are just a little palace maid, I am a beauty sealed by the emperor, you dare to talk to me like this, it is really no big or small. Come on, give the palace a palm. Qi Lin said angrily.

Hearing this, Rean Xue didn't say anything, just looked at Qi Lin lightly, and the two palace maids beside Qi Lin could only lower their heads and did not carry out her orders.

"What? You didn't carry out what this palace said? Qi Lin looked at the two palace maids beside him and said angrily.

"It's so early in the morning, Qi Meiren is so angry, and she still wants to slap the female official of the palace, it seems that you don't take the palace in your eyes, otherwise, the position of the queen will be done for you." Chu Lixue said lightly.

Hearing this, everyone knelt on the ground together, who knows when this queen was standing here, and ah, has Qi Lin's arrogant appearance just now been seen by the queen?

"Niangniang, the concubine doesn't mean that, the concubine just ...... It's just ......" Qi Lin really couldn't find any excuse for a while, when she reprimanded Rean Xue just now, she really didn't expect the queen to hear it, besides, how can she say that she is also the emperor's woman, and she was sarcastically ridiculed by a palace maid, so if she doesn't show a little majesty, won't she be laughed at by the other eight people?

"Just what? When you entered the palace, didn't the grandmother in your palace tell you that only the four concubines in the palace are qualified to call themselves the palace, and the other concubines can only call themselves concubines? Chu Lixue said coldly.

"Niangniang, the concubine knows that she is wrong, and she asks the queen for forgiveness." Qi Lin knelt on the ground and kowtowed vigorously.

"Since you just said that you want to give the female official of the palace a palm, then do as you say, it's just that the number of this palm is ......"

"Niangniang, the concubine just wants to scare and scare Miss Remnant Xue, and she doesn't really mean to beat her." Qi Lin said with a smile.

"But do you think this palace has the intention of scaring you? Since I said it, I have to do it. In this way, this palace will give you twenty palms and mouths. Rean Xue, look at her, don't let her be lazy. Chu Lixue said lightly.

After finishing speaking, Chu Lixue turned around and walked into the room, and Wanyue said to the people in the courtyard behind her: "A few new masters, the queen mother has prepared refreshments, please go in." Wanyue said with a smile.

"Yes." After finishing speaking, several people followed the waning moon into the palace, and everyone looked at the palace, there were no particularly expensive decorations in the palace, only some elegant vases and orchids.

"A few ladies please have tea." The little palace maid placed the teacups on the table beside several people in turn. Zheng Qing picked up the teacup and took a sip, "It's really good tea, Niangniang's Biluochun here is the best." ”

"Since Concubine Zheng likes it, when I go back in a while, let's bring some back." Chu Lixue said lightly.

Hearing this, the rest of the people also wanted to be close to Chu Lixue, but they couldn't find a suitable topic, at this moment, Rean Xue also walked into the room with Qi Lin, looking at the obvious fingerprints on Qi Lin's cheeks, everyone was snickering.
