Chu Lixue looked at Qi Lin condescendingly, she remembered this woman very clearly, didn't she swear that day that she would definitely be selected? Originally, only eight people were selected, and she told the head of the Jingshi room to add this Qi Lin to it, but the position was very low, just a beauty.

"Niangniang, Lin'er knows that she is wrong, please forgive Niangniang." Qi Lin pear blossom with rain channel.

"Qi Lin, there are many people in this deep palace who are more noble than you, if you don't know how to advance and retreat, and have thoughts that you shouldn't have, I'm afraid you won't be able to die in peace." Chu Lixue looked at her freshly trimmed nails.

Hearing this, although everyone didn't dare to say anything, they scolded Chu Lixue in their hearts. If you want to say that you are noble, it is naturally the daughters of their ministers who are noble, and as for those who come from small families, at most they are only worthy of carrying shoes.

"What Niangniang taught me is that Lin'er will never dare again." Qi Lin knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"Alright, get up. When you enter the palace, you must understand the rules of this palace, since yesterday, the emperor has begun to let you sleep, you have to serve the emperor well, if you get the emperor's favor, this glory and wealth are naturally indispensable. Chu Lixue looked at Concubine Shu and said with a light smile.

Last night, the emperor stayed in Cuining Palace overnight, and the rest of the people had already sent someone to inquire clearly, and at this time, the queen mentioned this matter again, which made everyone hate Concubine Shu to the core.

"Niangniang, the concubine has something she wants to ask the queen mother." Lei Yufeng knelt down and said.

"Oh? What's the matter with Concubine Xian? Let's put it bluntly. "Chu Lixue is so tidy.

"Niangniang, this newcomer enters the palace to sleep, may I ask if it is decided by the emperor, or is it arranged by you?"

"Well, this is usually the emperor's own thoughts, but since you also have this thought, you might as well tell the palace, and the palace will remind the emperor to go to the palace of the concubines who have not yet slept in the palace." Chu Lixue said lightly.

Hearing Chu Lixue say this, Zheng Qing hooked her lips and smiled, and said in her heart, this queen is really smart, doesn't this just make people think that Concubine Shu is here to apply to her to sleep first? However, she believes that the queen will not really arrange it, and the emperor will not really want to be lucky with any concubine, it must be that Concubine Shu used some unsavory means to deceive the emperor.

Since the queen said that the concubines who have not served the bed can mention the matter of serving the bed with her, it is better to draw the fire to the concubine now. The nine people selected this time can compete with themselves in terms of family background, and the rest are not to worry.

Thinking of this, Zheng Qing slowly spoke, "Niangniang, there are rumors in this market that you are very jealous, but this time the selection of concubines is also the one you mentioned has increased from four to nine. ”

"Concubine Zheng's mouth is really sweet, this concubine is not the final say of the palace, but since you want to take a concubine, it is better to choose a few more people to enter the palace, so that this palace can add some popularity, and it can also be more lively."

"What Niangniang said is ah, before Niangniang, you sent all those remnants to the nunnery, but it was really happy, originally Nangong Anyi was seeking to usurp the throne, and the concubines he left behind were naturally not suitable for living in the palace, if this is kept, one day it will be touched, who should give a salute to whom." Ding Ruolan said with a smile.

"Ding Shuyi is really a blue heart, and you have guessed the thoughts of this palace. Okay, Ning Xiang, let people present the rewards of this palace and give them to a few masters. Chu Lixue said lightly.

After finishing speaking, I saw a few palace maids touching the box and walked in front of several newcomers, everyone took the box and opened it, it turned out that there were the same jade bracelets inside, it seemed that the queen treated them the same. But when they fixed their eyes on the box in Concubine Shu's hand, their faces became not so good-looking.

What Chu Lixue gave to Concubine Shu was not a pair of jade bracelets, but a pair of jade Ruyi, although delicate and small, but the meaning is different. Seeing that her gift was different from her, Concubine Shu couldn't help frowning.

As soon as she wanted to speak, Ning Xiang reminded her softly in front of her, "Concubine Niangniang, this is our mother's heart, you served the emperor hard last night, you have to understand Niangniang's good intentions." ”

Although Ning Xiang's voice was very low, it also made the rest of the people listen to it sincerely, it seems that this concubine can be the first to sleep, and she is really a little tired of being in it.

After everyone left Fengluan Palace, they each walked in the direction of their own dormitory, Peng Yuewan and Zheng Qing's dormitory were very close, and the two walked together.

Along the way, Peng Yuewan vented her dissatisfaction with Chu Lixue and Concubine Shu, Zheng Qing didn't interject a word, just quietly listened to Peng Yuewan vent.

"Sister Zheng, you are really calm, this concubine has been shameless to this point, if it is said to be a bedchamber, how should it be sister you, why is it her turn Xu Fei."

"Look at my sister's anger, my maid has cooked sour plum soup today, should my sister go in and drink a bowl to quench the anger." Zheng Qing said with a smile.

"There's sour plum soup, but I like it the most." Peng Yuewan said with a smile. After finishing speaking, he and Zheng Qing entered the Palace of Cherished Flowers together.

Walking into this Cherish Flower Palace, Peng Yuewan felt that this Cherished Flower Palace was different from her own palace, there were various precious varieties of peonies in this palace, which Zheng Qing liked peony flowers She knew, but she didn't expect Zheng Qing to raise so many precious varieties.

These are the daughters of the ministers who grew up at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and they don't go out of the door on weekdays, and their family education is very strict. Even if the folk customs of Beichen are open, women can walk around the streets, but because of their status, even if they go out, they will wear a hat to cover their faces.

Looking at the peonies in the garden, Peng Yuewan was surprised: "I really can't imagine that my sister has so many precious varieties here, it's really beautiful." ”

"If my sister likes it, choose some and bring them back to the palace."

"No, my temperament is not suitable for fiddling with these flowers and plants, only an elegant person like my sister is suitable. I still like food. Peng Yuewan said with a smile.

And because Concubine Shu was valued by Chu Lixue, she simply became a thorn in the side of others, a thorn in the flesh. Even Ding Ruolan, who is good friends with her on weekdays, is a little detached from her.

"Niangniang, don't be angry, since this concubine can use despicable means to lure the emperor, then we can too." Lei Yufeng's maidservant Chun Tao said flatteringly.

"So what to do? I don't know what kind of flattering means the concubine used, the last time the emperor was fooled, will he be fooled a second time? Lei Yufeng said coldly.

"Niangniang, your bedroom is Yufeng Palace, this time nine people entered the palace, only your bedroom implied your name, which shows that the emperor loves it." Chun Tao said with a smile.

Hearing this, Lei Yufeng couldn't help but nodded, it is indeed the case, there are many empty palaces in the palace now, why let her live in the Jade Phoenix Palace, I heard the family say that Emperor Taizu's favorite thought that the concubine lived in the Jade Phoenix Palace, and this Jade Phoenix Palace was originally not called the Jade Phoenix Palace, but called the Jade Xin Palace, this woman can be said to have received all the love of the Emperor Taizu, but she has not been able to make her the queen, and the Emperor Taizu changed the name of the palace to the Jade Phoenix Palace in order to make up for her.

In this palace, only the Jade Phoenix Palace and the Fengluan Palace also have a phoenix character, and the phoenix character is dedicated to the queen, and now she lives in the Jade Phoenix Palace, is it possible that the emperor intends to let her fight against the queen?

Thinking of this, Lei Yufeng's mind also became active, since the emperor has this intention, then why doesn't she comply with the emperor's wishes. She said, how can this make a man to a woman from the beginning, ordinary men may not be able to do it, let alone the emperor who sits on the world.

"Chun Tao, then what can you do?"

"Niangniang, you pretend to be unwell, and then the slave maid will ask the emperor to come and see you. Then put the spices of love in the palace, and the emperor naturally couldn't help it. Chun Tao said lightly.

"Oh? With spices? If this is discovered, won't it be a place to die? Lei Yufeng said worriedly.

It would be a good thing if she could get the emperor's favor, but she wouldn't put her life on the line just to get favor. Although Chun Tao's suggestion was good, did she really want to exchange her own and even her family's lives for that night's favor?

Chun Tao saw that Lei Yufeng was a little undecided, so she said: "Niangniang, if you can't make up your mind, then let's see if there are any other opportunities." ”

Suddenly, Lei Yufeng looked at Chun Tao with cold eyes, this maidservant, she is just a concubine who has just entered the palace, and she has not yet been favored by the emperor, why does she want to help herself like this? Didn't someone else spend money to let her deliberately frame herself?

Thinking of this, a layer of cold sweat broke out on Lei Yufeng's back, if this is really the case, this spring peach, she still has to think of a way to send it away.

"Chun Tao, I don't agree with your idea, and I don't want to do it, if someone finds out, the lives of the whole family in this palace can't be saved. Even you, you know? ”

"Niangniang, you and the other eight are all new people who have entered the palace, and now except for Concubine Shu, the rest of the people are also ready to move, if you can go to bed early, then even if you have a foothold in the palace, so those eunuchs and other concubines will not dare to bully you easily. We are all slaves, the master is not favored, those of us who are slaves will also be bullied by other slaves, for your good, for Chun Tao herself, Chun Tao still hopes that Niang Niang will fight for it. ”

After listening to Chun Tao's sincere words, Lei Yufeng felt that what Chun Tao said was very right, in this deep palace, glory and wealth are built on the emperor's favor, if there is no emperor's favor, even if it is a concubine, someone will trample on it.

Thinking of this, Lei Yufeng whispered a few words in Chun Tao's ear, and Chun Tao was ordered to go out.
