But when Concubine Jin is unwilling to exert her power from time to time, these people in the harem will not stop. Queen Yu has made frequent moves in recent days. Although she thought she was cautious, Jin Guifei saw everything in her eyes.

Today, she wants to see what waves Queen Yu and Yu Miaoqing can make.

Queen Yu said that since she wanted to enjoy the lotus and leisure, she did not need to be restrained, and set up a banquet in the flower hall by the water, she personally held the pot to pour wine for the queen mother, and specially transferred the female ancestor who was good at telling stories from the teaching department, brought the flower drum and huqin, and told the queen mother to listen.

Those who don't want to listen to the book can go to the water's edge and walk on their own, and there is prepared fish food on the shore of the pond, so you can go to the water's edge to feed the koi. Fishing rods and bait are also available, so if you like fishing, you can do your own fishing. In the pavilion on the bridge, Go and Shuanglu are also placed, and it is also convenient to be willing to play chess and play Shuanglu.

The Queen Mother nodded and praised Queen Yu for being thoughtful.

The concubines and concubines drank a few cups with the Queen Mother, tasted lotus shortbread and various fine snacks, and the Queen Mother let them disperse to have fun. Jin Guifei naturally didn't want to watch Queen Yu flatter the Queen Mother here, and went out of the flower hall to feed the fish on the bridge.

Ye Tongying also followed Jin Guifei out, fed the fish for a while, and Jin Guifei sat down to rest. Ye Tongying saw a person in a blue robe standing quietly by the water, looking into the distance, curious about what she was looking at so seriously, so she got down from the bridge and walked to her.

"The last time I visited the garden, I saw you standing at the water's edge and looking over there. What's so fascinating about it? Ye Tongying asked Zhang Weizhao curiously.

Zhang Weizhao smiled slightly, did not turn his head, and still looked into the distance attentively: "Look at the place where the water and the sky meet." When she looks at the scenery in the distance, only the clear water and the vast sky, forgetting the carved beams and paintings around her, those ladies wrapped in silk and satin, she will feel that this world is no different from the world in her previous life, as if she only needs to turn her head, she can see people in T-shirts and sneakers, and see all kinds of modern buildings.

Ye Tongying really doesn't think that the place where the water and the sky meet is worth seeing for so long, although the scenery is good, after watching it for a long time, it will feel monotonous.

She thought for a moment and asked, "Do you miss your hometown?" She probably knows some of Zhang Weizhao's "life experience".

Zhang Weizhao turned his head and smiled: "What you said is true." Ye Tongying's guess was right, although the hometown she understood was not the hometown in Zhang Weizhao's heart.

Ye Tongying has never been out of the capital, and she doesn't know what it's like to miss her hometown. But she could feel Zhang Weizhao's loneliness when she talked about her hometown, and she asked sympathetically: "Do you have any relatives in your hometown?" ”

Zhang Weizhao shook his head.

Ye Tongying really wanted to comfort Zhang Weizhao. She herself grew up in Jinxiu since she was a child, her mother loved her, she was the aunt of the concubine, she was extremely beautiful, and she was flattered everywhere she went, so she felt that like Zhang Weizhao, she had to rely on her own craftsmanship for a living at a young age, and most of the people who wore the robe would be lonely until they were old, no man loved her, and no child around her knees, which was very pitiful.

After thinking about it, she invited her pet longevity and said, "Don't think about those past things. Come and show you how long I live. Longevity is fun, let it sit and sit it, and give it something delicious to wagging its tail. When I have a long life and a son in the future, I will give you one. You won't be alone with it. ”

Zhang Weizhao chuckled and scratched Changshou's head, Changshou Fang sniffed her smell around her, and seemed to be very accepting of her, so he let her stroke and keep wagging his tail.

At this moment, I saw a team of little eunuchs coming from outside the flower hall, dressed neatly and holding colorful leather balls in their hands.

An attendant moved the queen mother's chair out, and the queen mother walked out of the flower hall and sat on the porch, and Queen Yu and several concubines stood on her left and right. The prince didn't want to stand too close to those concubines, so he walked under the tree not far from the flower hall to watch the battle. The little eunuchs saluted the queen mother, all the ladies and the prince, and then began to perform the juju play.

There are many ways to play Kemari. It can be played against two teams, or it can be performed solo or multiplayer. These little eunuchs are very skilled, not only the feet, knees, shoulders, head, but even the chest, abdomen, and buttocks can catch the ball and turn it upside down. Some little eunuchs can also let the ball flow freely on his body, and the ball seems to have eyes on him, and it hovers up and down on his body, but it will not fall.

Ye Tongying originally liked Keju, and when she saw Keju's performance, she happily beckoned Zhang Weizhao to go over with her. Ye Tongying walked over and stood beside the prince, and Zhang Weizhao stood a few steps away from them.

Ye Tongying has been joking with the prince, and the prince has also replied.

The little eunuchs performed their own tricks for a while, and they were divided into two teams and started an offensive and defensive game. Ye Tongying watched from the side and was eager to try.

At this time, Chen Youcong seemed to inadvertently see Zhang Weizhao next to him, and asked Zhang Weizhao after pacing for two steps: "Dare to ask Daoist Zhang, do you have any recipes for clearing heat and brightening your eyes?" ”

The expression on his face was even relaxed, but looking at Zhang Weizhao's eyes contained deep meaning. He felt that he hadn't spoken to Zhang Weizhao for a long time, at most, he saw her occasionally when he went to the Queen Mother's palace.

"Is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince tired because of the tiredness of his eyes? There are prescriptions, but they need targeted medication. If so......"

Zhang Weizhao was only halfway through his words, when he suddenly saw the prince suddenly turn around and protect Zhang Weizhao in his arms, holding her waist with one hand. Immediately heard a muffled sound, the prince's head was slammed from behind, and his chin almost hit Zhang Weizhao's nose, and then he saw the white powder flying up in the sky, and Chen Youcong immediately blindfolded Zhang Weizhao's eyes with his hands.

Zhang Weizhao heard someone next to him babbling: "Why did the bow crack?" ”

"Why is the rice bran in this bow so broken? The prince was fascinated by his eyes, so he quickly took water to rinse it. ”

Zhang Weizhao peeled off the prince's hand that covered his eyes, and then said loudly: "Don't take water!" Rinse with vegetable oil! ”

Zhang Weizhao saw that the ball was cracking strangely, and she was afraid that there would be lime in the debris. If there is lime in case, rinse it with water, and the prince's eyes will be finished.

She took the prince's hand and asked him to sit on the chair that someone had just moved, and admonished: "Be patient, don't rub it with your hands, you know?" ”

Chen Youcong, whose eyes were tingling, held her hand tightly and nodded, spending a lot of effort to restrain herself from rubbing her itchy eyes with her hands.

Soon someone brought vegetable oil, Zhang Weizhao quickly sniffed it, and then took it to rinse the prince's eyes.

Fortunately, the prince's eyes only fell into the crumbs of rice bran, and there was no lime in between, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Weizhao also breathed a long sigh of relief. Turning his head, he found that Ye Tongying was staring at him angrily, her beautiful face stiff and distorted. And a few steps behind her, Jin Guifei's eyes were cold and murderous when she looked at her.

In the chaos, Empress Yu first ordered someone to send Chen Youcong back to Changning Palace, and then recruited the imperial doctor to further diagnose and treat his eyes, and then confessed to the queen mother, and finally punished the little eunuch who accidentally injured the prince by kicking a ball.

Jin Guifei looked at her left and right, sneered a few times, and took Ye Tongying back to Anxi Palace.

Zhang Weizhao also went back to Changning Palace to freshen up and change clothes.

She could feel how many pairs of eyes were staring at her behind her as she left the field.

Back in the backyard of Changning Palace, the green pothos greeted him, and when he saw Zhang Weizhao's gray face, there were a lot of rice bran crumbs in his hair, and he couldn't help but wonder:

"Sister, what's wrong with you? Why did you get so much ash on your head? Hurry back to the house, I'll fetch hot water and give you a good wash and grate. As he spoke, he pulled Zhang Weizhao into the house and turned around and went out.

After a while, hot water was brought in, and flower dew oil and fragrant pancreas were brought in, and the water was poured into the basin on the shelf. Zhang Weizhao wanted to wash it himself, and the green pothos smiled: "You can't see it, you can't wash it clean, or I'll come." He took a big handkerchief for Zhang Weizhao, covered his neckline, and then pulled Zhang Weizhao's hair and washed it carefully, and said: "My sister's other robe has been dried, I put it away and folded it in the cabinet, and I can replace it in a while." It's just that my sister looks really good when she wears a palace costume! You don't have to wear a robe every day! ”

Zhang Weizhao smiled: "Do you like to see me wearing palace clothes?" ”

"yes. I guess my sister looks good in red. I'll make my sister a set of begonia red gowns. ”

"You still have serious work, and you don't have to think about making clothes for me all the time. Let's talk about it when I'm free. ”

"It's fine. Sister Xiangyu's work, I can finish it in the day. At night, there was still a long time between dinner and before going to bed. I read a book for a while, and do needlework for a while. ”

Luluo was originally illiterate, but after Zhang Weizhao came, she taught her word by word, and now she can read some simple sentences by herself.

After changing a few basins of water, the rice bran in Zhang Weizhao's hair was washed. Luluo took a big cloth towel to help Zhang Weizhao wipe his hair until it was half dry, and used a grate to grate it several times before he loosened it and pulled a bun on the back of his head. It is forbidden to wear a cloak in the palace, so you must try to dry your hair and pull it up.

Luluo packed up his things and went out, Zhang Weizhao changed his clothes, and then sat down to think about what happened just now and what kind of consequences it would bring.

She has a feeling that the background of this incident is not simple, and it will not pass silently. She thought that maybe it was time for her to ask the Queen Mother to resign and leave the court.

Ye Tongying returned to Anxi Palace with Jin Guifei, holding back anger and tears along the way. When she returned to the palace and sent everyone back from the palace, Ye Tongying finally had a chance to have a seizure.

"Auntie, you saw it all today, the prince ......, when the ball flew over, I stood closer to him, but he didn't care about it at all, but, but he protected that slut like that!" Ye Tongying's tears finally rolled down. recalled over and over again in my mind that Chen Youcong's action of turning around to protect Zhang Weizhao at the moment when the ball smashed over, it was so natural and without hesitation; When his eyes were fascinated by rice bran, he held Zhang Weizhao's hand so tightly, so trusting, without reservation!
