Since Shen Chang'an returned to favor, Zhong Yuxiu's situation can be said to be getting worse.

She was previously punished by the emperor for punishing Han Yan and was grounded for one month. And because of the daily extravagance in her palace, the palace people lost a month's worth of money in vain, and naturally they were not happy, and they came and went, and they were not so attentive to serving their masters. was really helpless, Zhong Yuxiu decided to write a letter to her father Zhong Ping, crying about what happened to her in the palace, but she sent several letters in a row, but there was not even a reply. She sent Lanxiang out quietly to inquire only to find out that because the queen was pregnant, the virtuous concubine Shen Chang'an represented the sixth palace, and her family letter was detained by Shen Changan.

So, after the grounding was lifted, she did not hesitate for a moment, and hurriedly ran to the queen's palace to cry again.

Empress Li Shushen was pregnant in May, and she hadn't been out of the palace for a long time, and as soon as she heard that Zhong Yuxiu lynched Concubine Xian's palace maid, she couldn't wait to break off relations with her. At this time, seeing her run to her temple and weep bitterly, not only did she not show sympathy, but her heart suddenly felt disgusted.

The queen slowly poured a bowl of fetal pills into her throat, and suddenly felt jerky between her teeth, and couldn't help frowning, and slowly said, "It's also your own fault left and right." The emperor usually can't see the master beating and scolding his subordinates wantonly, but you still sent her to Shang Fangsi, and now you can't want the emperor not to be angry. ”

After listening to the queen's words, Yuxiu's eyes widened, her throat was hoarse, and even her voice changed her tone, "But the emperor blames the concubine for being a palace maid like this, it's really unfair, and I hope my sister will plead for her sister in front of the emperor......"

When the queen heard that Zhong Yuxiu was commensurate with her sister, she was immediately displeased. In the past, when she was first pregnant, Zhong Yuxiu was also favored, and Shushen still remembered her good. But now that feng shui is turning, Shen Chang'an will return to favor and become the sixth palace of the association, she is afraid that she will not even be able to protect herself, let alone plead for Zhong Yuxiu at this time.

But in the end, he has been in the palace for a long time, and Zhong Yuxiu's appearance is not without the possibility of being favored in the future. Because of this, Shushen didn't want to offend her.

So she said, "This palace will help Jieyu say a few good words in front of the emperor." ”

The queen's words are light and light, and it is naturally not a taste when it falls in Zhong Yuxiu's heart. She secretly hated and gritted her teeth, and her eyes inadvertently scanned the queen's bedroom, but she did not see the shadow of the begonia, she thought about it carefully, and when she came in along the main hall, she had not seen the pot of begonias she sent. Thinking of this, her heart was suddenly stunned.

The queen sat upright on the beauty couch, her fingers gently covered her lower abdomen, and seeing that Zhong Yuxiu was silent for a long time, she said, "The palace is a little tired, Jieyu should go back to the palace earlier." ”

Yuxiu heard that she was unfamiliar with her words, even if she was reluctant, she could only be helped up by Lan Xiang and went out.

When there was no one around, Yuxiu whispered to Lan Xiang beside her, "When I entered the palace, there was no pot of begonias in the queen's palace, you say, did she find something?" ”

Lan Xiang was also surprised when she heard this, frowned and said, "No...... The little master is so meticulous, how can he be easily discovered......"

"Bengong had privately asked the imperial physician of Fengluan Palace before, and he said that the queen's pulse was very stable, and there was no sign of a slippery fetus. In this way, she must not have touched the pot of begonias. ”

Lan Xiang hesitated for a moment, shook her head and said, "But we have already secretly contacted Imperial Doctor Qin, and with his friendship with the little master, he will definitely not tell the queen mother about this." ”

Zhong Yuxiu heard Lan Xiang mention Qin Bozhi's name, and the corners of her lips suddenly hooked up a cold arc, "Then it seems that the queen mother is still in the way of the palace." ”

Lan Xiang sighed slightly, "Then according to the meaning of the little master, our next step is to ......"

"That's it." Zhong Yuxiu interrupted her abruptly, and sneered slightly, "I can't conceive the prince left and right, if the queen gives birth to the eldest son, maybe I can remember some good things about the palace." ”

After saying that, a hint of fierceness suddenly flashed in her eyes, "It's just that this palace is really unwilling." ”

However, as the saying goes, there is no such thing as a hundred days of redness. This truth is particularly thoroughly reflected in the harem.

After Chang'an and Chu Luo reconciled, Chu Luo felt ashamed of Chang'an, and his favor for her was doubled. Not only did he give her the power to associate the six palaces, but he also built a palace for her in Lishan, and for a while, Shen Changan enjoyed the most prosperous glory and wealth in the world, and the limelight was even more prosperous.

Chang'an returned to favor, and naturally did not forget Jiang Wanran, who was by her side in the most difficult period. Although Wanran never went to bed, she also won the position of beauty, and as she wished, she promised the imperial doctor Xiao Yu to take charge of Xingyun Pavilion, although Chang'an had doubts, but he didn't ask, and only followed her.

In the past few days, Wanran often went to the Chonghua Hall to accompany Chang'an, and she wrote poems and games together, and someone in Chang'an accompanied her to talk, and the smile on her face was more than usual.

The Chonghua Hall has returned to its former vitality, and even the number of people with help has increased. Hanyan is still young and energetic in the end, but she can get out of bed and walk around after lying down for a few days, Chang'an is worried about her body, and she doesn't arrange work for her, she can't be idle, help this for a while, and help that for a while, obviously like a person who has nothing to do.

Early this morning, Hanyan served tea, and saw that Chang'an was playing with the small embroidered sachet that she had given her, so she pursed her lips and smiled, "Master, look at the slave, Jiang Cairen really pleases the master." In the past, when I was in the house, the slave maid didn't see that the master had such a good relationship with other people, but now that the little master Jiang and the master are so compatible, the slave and maid are also happy when they look at it. ”

When Chang'an heard this, he also smiled lightly, "No, when I was in the palace in the past, there were only the queen, Zhao Ronghua and me, the queen naturally didn't like me, but Zhao Ronghua was not a person who liked to talk." ”

Han Yan thought about the past of the palace, and no longer spoke, silently added a little hot water to the already cold teacup, and said, "With the little master Jiang to accompany the master, the master is also happier every day." ”

Chang'an was gentle, but when he saw Wanxiang coming in from outside the hall, he straightened up his body and said with a smile, "Niangniang, it's the little master Jiang who is here." ”

Chang'an was overjoyed when he heard this, thinking that he really said that Cao Cao Cao had arrived, and hurriedly said, "Please come in." ”

After thinking about it, Jiang Wanran had already stepped into the hall. Today she wore a dark blue brocade dress, embroidered with white plum blossoms on the skirt, and her face was thinly powdered, and she curled her black hair into a wishful bun, only inserting a plum blossom white hosta as an embellishment. Although it is simple, it looks fresh and elegant. As soon as she came up, she first blessed Chang'an, "I've seen Concubine Xian." ”

Chang An raised his face, motioned to Yingxiang beside Wanran to help her up, and smiled skillfully, "What are you doing so politely?" Come and sit. ”

Wanran's face turned red, and she smiled slightly, "The rules in the palace still have to be observed, my sister is the position of the fourth concubine, and my sister is just a beauty. After that, Wanran's eyes were slightly foggy, and she turned to look back, wanting to easily cover up this detail, but it still fell into Chang'an's eyes.

Chang'an has always hated a set of rules in the palace, and when he was in the palace in the past, although he also set the rules, it was not as complicated as in the palace. Now that he has stepped into this Great Chu Palace, even if there are many people, he has no choice but to do it.

Chang'an thought about it, Wanran had already called Yingxiang next to her, and Wan'er ordered, "Go and bring in the things that this little master brought to Concubine Xian." ”

When Chang'an heard this, his smile was a little fragrant, "My sister brings something every time she comes, which really makes the palace unhappy." ”

Wanran smiled gently, "Sister, where is this, it's not a valuable thing, it's just a little bit of my sister's heart." After speaking, she turned her head slightly, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a tree in the Chang'an Pavilion that was blooming in Xifu Begonia, and said happily, "The begonias in my sister's palace are actually blooming so well, it seems that it is the sister of the virtuous concubine who is deeply blessed, and even this flower has been immortal for a long time." ”

Chang'an saw that what he praised was the begonia flower that he took from the queen's palace that day, so he also smiled and said, "Where is the blessing of this palace, this begonia was originally in the queen's palace, and if you want to say that it has been long-lasting, it is also stained with the queen's joy." ”

Wanran pursed her lips and smiled, got up and walked towards the pavilion, and when she walked to Haitang, the smile on her face gradually faded, and her face gradually became snowy.

Seeing that she had been silent for a long time, Chang'an asked out loud, "What's wrong?" ”

"Sister, you come." Wanran's voice trembled slightly in Chang'an.

Chang'an walked over quickly, and saw Wanran staring at the begonia in Xifu, and he was a little distracted. I can't help but feel a little suspicious.

"Sister Xian." Wanran raised her eyes to look at Chang'an, her face was shocked, "The concubine has studied medicine with her mother since she was a child, and she is also a little skilled in medicine. The concubine only felt that the fragrance of this begonia was not as usual, but unfortunately her sister's medical skills were shallow, and she couldn't tell what the reason was. ”

When Chang'an heard this, the cold hairs on his body stood on end, and his face turned cold, "You mean, what's wrong with this begonia......

Gracefully and respectfully blessed Chang'an, "It may also be that the concubine is suspicious." This matter is related to the queen's mother, and the concubines dare not speak falsely. After that, she seemed to suddenly think of something, and a clear light flashed in her eyes, "If my sister can trust my sister, my sister can let the imperial doctor in my sister's palace come and find out." ”

Chang'an's eyebrows curled slightly, and he thought, "The imperial doctor in Xingyun Pavilion is ......."

Wanran heard Chang'an ask about Xiao Yu, and there was a little smugness in his words, "Imperial Doctor Xiao is the elder brother of the concubine who has known him since childhood, his medical skills are exquisite, and he is also very prestigious in Lin'an, so my sister can rest assured." ”

Only then did Chang'an remember that day when she begged her to transfer this Imperial Doctor Xiao to Xingyun Pavilion, and at this time, she saw such a gentle look when she mentioned him gently, thinking like this, the more suspicious she became.
