Chapter Ninety-Six: An Inch of Acacia and an Inch of Gray

When she came here, she didn't think that Yunyue Pavilion was beautiful, but like other pavilions, there was nothing extraordinary.

She didn't know why her sister mentioned that Yunyue Pavilion was beautiful many times in the letter, which was the most puzzling point for her.

"You're coming to Yunyue Pavilion again today?"

Hai Tao only heard a gentle voice behind her, and turned around to see that it was Concubine Liu Yuhuan.

Weiwei Fu saluted: "The slave Hai Tao will greet the virtuous concubine." ”

Liu Yuhuan hummed lightly, then looked at the place where Hai Tao was looking, half a sound, and his lips opened slightly: "I still remember that you said back then that you would find the most important thing in Yunyue Pavilion, I don't know if you have found it now?" ”

Then Liu Yuhuan looked at Hai Tao, the corners of Hai Tao's mouth rose slightly, and then shook his head: "The slave has not found the most important thing so far, and it is estimated that she will not be able to find it in this life." ”

Liu Yuhuan chuckled, and then looked into the distance: "Even if the most important thing is found in this world, so what?" ”

Hai Tao didn't understand the meaning of Concubine Xian's words, "Concubine Xian Niangniang is the emperor's favorite concubine, how can she know the bitterness and suffering of us slaves?" ”

From the first day of Hai Tao into the palace, every time I came to Yunyue Pavilion, I could see Concubine Xian Liu Huan, and over time I also had a little intersection with Concubine Xian, and Concubine Xian Niangniang was really as the palace maids said, treating slaves and maids lenient and gentle.

"Actually, Hongu has always wanted to ask you a word." Liu Yuhuan turned around and faced Hai Tao, "Hai Tao, what did you enter the palace for?" ”

"Concubine Xian, the slave doesn't understand what you mean by this." Hai Tao looked at Liu Yuhuan, and saw that Liu Yuhuan was silent, so she said again, "The slave maid enters the palace just for the father and mother of the family, the virtuous concubine Niangniang, you are looking too highly at the slave maid, what purpose can the slave maid enter the palace." ”

Liu Yuhuan smiled, then waved his hand, and the palace maid Dongyue beside him stepped forward: "Since Niangniang heard about you, I think you are really pitiful, so I sent someone to visit your old mother in your hometown, but I learned that your sister Shuanghua had also entered the palace. ”

The palace maid Dongyue's words provoked Hai Tao to be dumbfounded, and then glared at Liu Yuhuan viciously: "What do you mean by this, Concubine Xian?" My sister Shuanghua has indeed entered the palace, but it doesn't mean anything. ”

Liu Yuhuan chuckled, then took a few steps forward, raised his eyes and met Hai Tao's gaze: "Since I came back from the winter moon, I talked to the palace about Shuanghua, and the palace remembered that Shuanghua used to be the personal palace maid of the queen's mother, but somehow, she suddenly disappeared four years ago." ”

Liu Yuhuan said these words in a very small voice, as if he was telling someone else's story, Hai Tao looked at Concubine Xian Niangniang, and kept silent.

Yes, everyone was looking for the whereabouts of her sister Shuanghua back then, but they didn't want to see her sister again, they were already separated by yin and yang, and they all said that Sister Shuanghua stole something in the palace of De Concubine at that time and was scolded to death by a cane.

But she saw that there were strangulation marks on her sister's neck, how could a person who was scolded by a rod have strangulation marks on her neck? This is the one thing that puzzles her the most.

"Everyone in the palace said that my sister stole the things in the palace of the concubine at that time, but although my sister didn't know a single word, she always knew what to take and what not to take."

As soon as Hai Tao thought of her sister, she felt a faint pain in her heart, that was her own sister, she was framed and convicted like this, and she also implemented the so-called cane punishment, my sister must have been very lonely and desperate at that time.

"My sister mentioned the words that Yunyue Pavilion is beautiful more than once or twice in the letter, but now the slave maid can't see the slightest beauty of Yunyue Pavilion here."

Hai Tao looked at the scenery around Yunyue Pavilion and couldn't help sighing, while Liu Yuhuan took a long breath and said half-loudly: "To the east of Yunyue Pavilion is Yanxi Palace, where the queen's mother once lived, and to the west is Changxi Palace, where Concubine Shu's concubine once lived. ”

Yanxi Palace, Changxi Palace?

Hai Tao turned her head to look at Concubine Xian, what does Concubine Xian mean by this? Did she know what happened to Sister Shuanghua back then?

"Concubine Xian, do you know something? If you know, please tell the slave truthfully, okay? Hai Tao subconsciously held Liu Yuhuan's hand, and then was directly broken free by Dongyue, and reprimanded, "What's the matter with you slave?" How can the hand of the virtuous concubine be pulled by you, the palace maid? ”

"The slave knows her mistake, and I hope that the virtuous concubine will not blame the slave and the maid." Hai Tao hurriedly knelt down, for fear that Concubine Xian would punish her for this matter, if she let the queen know that she came for a purpose, she would definitely not leave her in Fengluan Palace.

Liu Yuhuan looked at Hai Tao who was kneeling on the ground, she didn't want to punish her, she just felt that this girl was a little stupid and naΓ―ve, and she probably came to the palace to know what kind of life her sister Shuanghua has been living all these years.

"Get up, don't do these things again in the future, and don't come to Yunyue Pavilion again."

Liu Yuhuan looked at Hai Tao and turned around to leave, but was stopped by Hai Tao: "Concubine Xian, if you know the truth, please tell the slave maid, although Sister Shuanghua is not the slave's biological sister, but she treats the slave and maid like her own sister, and the slave and maid don't want to see her sister leave like this." ”

Sure enough, Hai Tao entered the palace for another purpose, "No matter what purpose you entered the palace for, but this palace has to tell you one thing, that is, don't argue with the people in the palace about right or wrong, because whether you are right or wrong, as long as you have an argument with them, everything will become wrong." ”

"The slave and maid understand, Concubine Xie Xian taught that the slave and maid will definitely remember it." Hai Tao made a big salute to Liu Yuhuan again, "If Concubine Xian has nothing else to do, then the slave and maid will retreat first, and the queen will still wait for the slave and maid to serve." ”

Liu Yuhuan looked at Hai Tao like this, nodded slightly, and then motioned for her to get up and leave.

Liu Yuhuan looked at the back of Hai Tao leaving, and fell into deep thought, no matter what happened, this girl was destined for her after all, I just hoped that she would not follow in the footsteps of her sister Shuanghua.

For Shuanghua, Liu Yuhuan is actually a little impressed, Shuanghua was not called Shuanghua in the palace at that time, at that time she followed Concubine De, that is, the current queen mother, at that time it was called Spring and Autumn.

Everyone knows that Chunqiu is a palace maid who doesn't know a single big character, but she is kind-hearted and skillful, and she was the most favored palace maid around De Concubine at that time.

There are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and somehow, one day Shugui identified Chunqiu as a thief for stealing things in her palace.

And Chunqiu also admitted that her master, Concubine De, had no idea of pursuing it at all, but implemented the cane responsibility.

No one expected that Chunqiu, who usually worked honestly and diligently, would be charged with being a thief overnight, so the concubine at that time ordered a hundred rods, and Chunqiu still failed to suffer a hundred sticks after all.

"Niangniang..."Dongyue called her softly, Liu Yuhuan pursed her lips and frowned slightly, "What's wrong?" ”

"Niangniang is thinking about the Spring and Autumn Period?" Dongyue stepped forward, and her voice became quiet.

Liu Yuhuan nodded and looked at the scenery in front of him: "I want the palace maid to enter the palace, and the Spring and Autumn Period should have come to the palace here, but unfortunately it was robbed by the concubine at that time, and it was destined to come." ”

Doomed? Dongyue looked at the master of her family, is it really as rumored that the two people of Concubine De and Shugui are competing for the little palace maid of Spring and Autumn?

"Niangniang, don't think about it so much, after all, things have passed for so many years, forgive her Haitao, a little palace maid, can't find anything."

Dongyue looked at the master's back and sighed slightly.

"Yes, it's been so many years, and now that everyone's sisters have come to the door, this palace wants to see how Concubine Shu has passed."

Liu Yuhuan turned around and sat in the pavilion, looking at the scenery outside, this Yunyue Pavilion was really as beautiful as Spring and Autumn said.

"Niangniang, Yunyue Pavilion is windy, let's go back to the palace first." Dongyue leaned forward, and wanted to help Concubine Xian to return to the palace, but Concubine Xian had no intention of leaving.

I only heard her say softly: "Dongyue, do you know how this palace sat in the position of the virtuous concubine?" ”

Dongyue pursed her lips and spoke half-loudly: "The slave maid remembers that when the slave maid had not yet arrived at Yongfu Palace, she always heard those palace maids say that the virtuous concubine did not fight or grab, which made the emperor very favored, so she sat in the position of the virtuous concubine." ”

It makes sense, Liu Yuhuan feels that Dongyue is only half right, she really doesn't fight or grab, but does not fight or grab it means that she has no ambition to climb up?

"Dongyue, this palace has seen that you have been with this palace for so many years, this palace will tell you the truth, if you fight in this palace, you will not fight, and if you don't fight, you will fight."

Liu Yuhuan's words made Dongyue confused, why did she fight for it, and if she didn't fight, it became a fight?

"Niangniang, what you said made the slave and maid confused, and the slave and maid couldn't understand it." Dongyue frowned and looked at Concubine Xian.

Dongyue's words can make Liu Yuhuan laugh, Dongyue's girl is very interesting, I think the reason why Dongyue was able to stay in Yongfu Palace at the beginning was because of her own tenacity and heart that could make the master laugh.

"You are still young now, you don't understand anything, when you reach the age of the palace, you will understand, they all say that it is very beautiful to be a mother in the palace, in fact, where is the scenery, it is not as free as the people outside Beiyan City."

Liu Yuhuan got up slowly, preparing to go back to Yongfu Palace, living the same day every day, which was really a little boring.

"Don't make fun of the slave and maid anymore, the slave and the maid don't understand anything, but the slave and the maid will learn anything for the mother, if something really happens to the mother one day, the slave and the maid..." ”

Liu Yuhuan listened to Dongyue's words, her face was full of smiles, although Dongyue's words were very embarrassing, but it was really courageous to say it from the mouth of a little girl like her.
