"This is the fetal pill that Zheng Guifei sent you?" Su Mi wore a small fox fur jacket and a loose bun, sat in the warm pavilion, leaned on the brocade pattern cushion, and asked casually.

"It's just a little bit of our mother's heart." Xianglin looked at the furnishings in the room with envy, a trace of jealousy flashed in the corners of his eyes, and he lowered his head and said.

"Since it's Zheng Guifei's medicine, thank you Zheng Niangniang for me." Seeing Su Mi's signal, Mi Qing immediately stepped forward to take it and put it on the small coffee table.

"Are you all right?" Su Mi asked with a smile.

"If you return to the talented people, our mother will be healthy, and Xie Sucai will remember it."

"I'm too lazy these days, neglecting to move around, and I haven't gone to ask Zheng Niangniang for peace, it's really rude."

"The talented person is too polite, the talented person is pregnant with the dragon descendant, so he should naturally rest at ease, and our mother often thinks about the talented person."

"Oh," Su Mi replied casually.

"Talent ......" Seeing that Mi Qing placed the bowl of medicine on the coffee table, Su Mi stopped looking at it, and Xianglin couldn't help but say.

"What?" Su Mi asked.

"If the medicine is cold, I'm afraid it will be ineffective, so it's better to drink it while it's hot." Xianglin said in a low voice.

Su Mi couldn't help but want to laugh, this girl is ambitious, but her Taoism is too shallow, if there is really a chance for Hui'er, I am afraid that the end will be the same. Secretly sighed and said, "Since it is Zheng Niangniang's heart, Miqing, help me bring it." ”

Su Mi took the medicine from Mi Qing's hand and took a sip slightly, the bitter feeling slid across the tongue coating, with a hint of imperceptible aroma. If you are not proficient in medical science, you will not be able to taste the medicine far better than ordinary people.

What is it? It's not like the usual drugs like safflower, musk, etc.

What did Zheng Guifei do? No, she has fallen out of favor for a long time, and she can't calculate her own head.

Empress? Could it be that there is something wrong with my confession that day? But it won't be so fast.

Ni Guifei? By the way, Zheng Guifei's father......

"I heard that General Zheng, the father of Zheng Guifei, served under General Ni, and has been very used by General Ni recently, and even the emperor often praises him for his courage and invincibility." Su Mi suddenly raised his head and asked idly.

"Exactly. Our mother is the eldest lady of the Zheng family. Xianglin didn't know why Su Mi suddenly asked this, and felt puzzled but didn't dare not answer.

"Speaking of which, everyone was originally a sister in the palace, but now they are more rusty than others, it is really my fault, I will go to Caiwei Hall to visit Concubine Zheng in a few days." Su Mi said with a smile.

She lifted the bowl and drank it all, all these tricks were aimed at the "imperial heir" in her stomach, and they did not dare to use any powerful poison, lest they show their tracks.

Xianglin breathed a sigh of relief, and Su Mi saw it in her eyes. "Concubine Zheng is bothered, Su Mi will definitely visit in person another day and thank Niangniang." Su Mi's smile was kind and gentle.

After a few more polite words, Xianglin said goodbye and left.

"Master, do you really want to drink? It's better to call the imperial doctor to come over and take a look first. Mi Qing watched Xianglin walk away and asked. There are several packs of this bowl of boiled medicine, and they are said to be kept and asked to drink slowly after being kept.

"Bring it to me and I'll take a look." Su Mi stretched his waist and said, he couldn't go anywhere after sitting like this all day, he was really tired and tired.

Mi Qing took a packet, and Su Mi carefully flipped through it.

It is indeed a pack of tocolytic medicine, the medicinal materials are expensive and reasonable, but what is added to it...... I sniffed it and found some more and put it in my mouth.

Sure enough, she specially found this kind of thing, and Ni Guifei also had a heart.

The addition of carrot vine to the medicine is extremely valuable, it is a very rare tonic, and long-term use can make people's skin delicate and radiant. Originally, it was only produced on the cliffs by the sea, and it was not easy to pick, so not many people knew about it. However, if a pregnant woman drinks it, there is no harm to the pregnant woman itself, but the fetus born will become an idiot and will not live for two or three years.

This medicine is dark brown, and the aroma is very similar to the one in the fetal pill, and at this time it is ground into powder and sprinkled in the medicine, even if it is sent to the hospital for examination, it is difficult to see any clues, and it really takes a lot of effort.

"Master, do you really drink these medicines every day?" Mi Qing asked again.

"Drink, why don't you drink, I should thank her well." Su Mi threw the medicinal herbs in his hand into his bag, clapped his hands and smiled.

"Do you want to ask the imperial doctor to come over and check it first, in case it ......" Mi Qing asked cautiously, even if she didn't have to worry about the fetus, Su Mi's body also needed to be considered.

"There's no whatever," Su Mi said with a smile, "This medicine is harmless, besides, if I don't drink it, how can I reassure these people?" ”

If they don't succeed this time, they will inevitably have to think of other methods, and the means are endless, but they can't prevent it. I drank the medicine myself, which not only blocked these calculations, but also beautified and nourished my skin, killing two birds with one stone, why not do it?

"Sister, what a beautiful plum blossom!" Qiyan couldn't help but jump down the steps and exclaimed. She was dressed in a crimson pomegranate brocade robe, covered with a silver fox cloak, and as she jumped, the side of her bun shook violently, and the rings jingled, making a pleasant sound.

Looking at Qiyan's movements, the faces of the attendants beside her changed, in case something happened to the emperor's heir, they would only be killed!

"Slow down, be careful not to fall." Su Mi was wearing a long skirt with plain yellow and silver flowers, and a shallow tubi skirt was exposed under the green satin cloak. Holding a small stove in his hand, he followed behind him with a smile.

On December 22nd, the heavy snow that had fallen for several days finally stopped and the sky cleared, the plum blossoms in the palace vied with each other, the fragrance overflowed, the big interior smelled, and then with the white snow scene, it was a beautiful scenery of fragrant snow boundless.

Good things in the palace come in pairs, and Qi Long has also been happy recently, and he made a decree early, to summon the concubines to enjoy the plum blossom feast in the most beautiful Tianxiang Garden where the plum blossoms bloom.

Originally, the banquet didn't start until the unitary hour, but Qiyan arrived at Caiwei Palace early in the morning, pulling Su Mi to see the plum blossoms in Tianxiang Garden, and now there are still two hours before the feast begins, which is enough for them to play in Tianxiang Garden.

Since she was pregnant, the queen deliberately issued a decree to exempt the two of them from waking up every day, and they usually have nothing to do, but Qiyan has been diligent when she arrives at Su Mi.

After knowing that Su Mi was also pregnant, Qiyan did not have the usual jealousy at all, for her, although pregnancy was a great joy, but this concept and understanding was completely the result of her education and flattery around her since she was a child. In fact, she is a teenage girl, and she has a natural fear of the unknown when she is pregnant, and when she learned that Su Mi was also pregnant, she gave birth to a feeling of companionship and no sense of loneliness.

Today, Qiyan was full of interest, and when she first entered the palace, because she was just a humble palace maid, she naturally couldn't move around. was promoted to the throne, became a concubine, and was forced to learn a lot of rules and etiquette, every step of the way, even raised his hand and bent down to eat and sleep, all of them did not pay attention to the rules. After becoming pregnant, the people around her became doubly nagging, and there were fewer people who usually said the word "rules" to themselves all day long, but all of them became "Be careful, for the sake of the dragonborn, don't ...... Don't ......" these words made her lively nature have no place to go out to play. I was trapped in the Xifu Palace all day long, and I wanted to go to the courtyard to relax, so I persuaded him verbally, "It's windy and slippery outside, if you flash your body and move the fetus, you can't do it." "I want to go to the other palace to play, and I am only familiar with Su Mi. So I can only run to Caiwei Palace every day.

Today finally has a banquet ordered by the emperor, which can be regarded as allowing them to come out and have a good time.

The two stepped into the plum garden, couldn't help but marvel at the luxury of the royal garden, no wonder everyone said that the palace garden is crowned by Tianxiang Garden, Tianxiang Courtyard is located on the side of Taiye Pond, it was originally a king of Daqi decades ago for the favorite concubine Xiangfei who loved plum blossoms by nature arranged the garden, and also deliberately named Tianxiang Garden after the name of the concubine.

As soon as the two stepped into the garden, they felt the fragrance on their faces and were intoxicated.

The plum blossoms are blooming, looking at it, like a piece of colorful clouds, long and connected, pink, bright red, goose yellow, light green...... The plum blossoms of various colors are gorgeous, on the branches, there is still the residual snow of last night on the petals, and there is a kind of "snow pressing plum white, plum sheng snow fragrance" beautiful scene. The two of them walked along the path in the courtyard, which was really picturesque every step of the way.

was enjoying the pleasure, walking a little way, but saw a row of figures in the distance, it was a team of inner guards leading a group of eunuchs carrying boxes.

The first one of the guards was tall, wearing a warrior uniform of the commander of the guard with black gold edges, his eyebrows were handsome, his spirit was flying, his eyesight was excellent, and he had seen the two clearly from a distance, he glanced at it quickly, lowered his head, but couldn't help but flash a stunning look in his eyes, and when he got closer, everyone saw Su Mi and Qiyan, and hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

Especially the guards in it didn't even dare to raise their heads. Usually there are guards in the harem who are responsible for guarding, but today's feast is in the depths of the harem, in order to protect it, many guards from the front hall are dispatched into the harem to be responsible for protection. Although they didn't know the identities of the two, they naturally knew that the women here were all dependents of the emperor, and it was not something that these young men could see.

Qiyan couldn't help but ask curiously when she saw those boxes, "What are these?" ”

"Returning to Liu Cairen's words," the leader of the eunuchs was Qian Lian, an apprentice beside Gao Shengnuo, who naturally recognized Qiyan and Su Mi, "These are the lanterns and candles and some juggling props used to prepare the evening feast, and the servants are about to carry them to the main hall to decorate." blocked the path of the two masters, and hoped for forgiveness. ”

Qiyan was overjoyed when she heard this, "There are lanterns, take them out and show them to me, I used to play at home, but I haven't seen them since I entered the palace." ”

"The master commanded, how dare you disobey," the few people in front of him were all the masters who were red in the palace, and it was too late for Qian Lian to stammer, so of course he agreed: "Open it quickly, please ask Liu Cairen to pick a few fresh ones." ”

When the eunuchs carrying the boxes were neutral, several of them changed their faces imperceptibly.

Qiyan was about to walk over with great interest.

Su Mi pulled her and said, "They are not ready, sister, don't be in a hurry, wait until the evening, you want to see as much as you want, why rush for a while." ”

If there is only a team of eunuchs in front of them, there is nothing wrong with asking them how many lanterns and toys they want to play with first. But now there are mostly young guards in front of them, and the two of them have been here for a long time, and it is inevitable that they will be truthful.

Qiyan looked behind him, and the palace people around him also showed disagreement, knowing that his behavior might not conform to any rules, he said disappointedly: "Okay, okay, then let's wait for the evening, anyway, take it at night." ”

At this time, several people in the team seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. Su Mi saw it in her eyes and couldn't help but be puzzled. Just now she noticed that the faces of those people had changed, and she felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't say it. She asked, "Are these things going to be carried to the main hall now?" Did the workshop in the palace make it yourself? ”

"Back to the master, some of them were made by the workshops in the palace, and some of them were customized and brought in by the troupe, all because of the props brought in for tonight's performance. This is to be sent to decorate the main hall. Qian Lian replied.

"Has it already been checked? Don't do anything bad, or you won't be able to afford to delay tonight's fun. Su Mi said with a smile.

"What the master commanded, the slave has carefully examined it." Qian Lian flattered, and couldn't help but be a little anxious, in fact, these lanterns and lanterns from outside the palace were sent over several hours late, although he scolded the people of the troupe, but scolded and scolded, at this time it was too late to change a batch of ironclad, and the other party handed over a silver ticket of five hundred taels in time, for the sake of the face of the silver of Bai Huahua, he couldn't care too much, so he scolded and hurriedly checked it, and hurriedly ordered someone to carry it in.

"These people are very raw, they don't seem to be internal supervisors, right?" Su Mi looked at the few people in the middle who were neatly dressed, but obviously dressed as miscellaneous servants, when could men be allowed to enter and leave the palace, even if the miscellaneous servants were often in and out of the inner palace, they would be undertaken by special eunuchs.

"Oh, the master misunderstood, those are all craftsmen of the troupe, because the team performing at tonight's banquet was specially ordered by the queen mother to find it from the people, I heard that it is still a very famous team, for tonight's performance, the arrangement of these lanterns and appliances has to listen to their opinions. They are all a group of vulgar people, who have never seen the world, and they really stain the eyes of their masters. Qian Lian confessed.

The people in several teams lowered their heads, and they couldn't see any clues.

"Okay, let's go, don't delay the hour." Seeing Qian Lian's anxious appearance of scratching his ears and cheeks, Su Mi smiled.

Maybe they are afraid that Qiyan will rummage around and break things, and the blame will naturally be counted on them. Watching them walk away, Su Mi secretly said that he was too suspicious.

"Sister, let's go over there and have a look." Qiyan's crisp voice interrupted her train of thought.

Forget it, if there is really any difference, it will not have anything to do with him, and it will not be the turn of a small talented person to take care of it. She put her mind at ease and looked at the direction that Qiyan was pointing, which was the side of the Taiye Chi Flying Bridge.

Coming out of the main hall, Mu Qinghan breathed a sigh of relief, and the handover was completed when the people were delivered, and the layout in the hall was not under his own control. It's really tiresome to work with these eunuchs who are not yin or yang, but fortunately, I am on an errand in front, not a guard in the harem, so I don't have to face these people every day.

Then there was the work of inspecting the perimeter, and he walked down the steps, not knowing where the kid from Ting Xuan had gone.

"Where's Deputy Commander Ni?" He asked his men.

"It seems that I went to Taiye Pond to inspect just now." The guard replied.

"He's quick, you take a look around here first, take a closer look, and I'll come as soon as I go." After Mu Qinghan finished his order, he turned around and walked towards Taiye Pool.

In the main hall, he instructed his little eunuchs to hang up the lanterns, and Qian Lian breathed a sigh of relief, which can be regarded as catching up.

"There is Father-in-law Lao, just let these rough people do the rest of our work," a tall middle-aged man with a Chinese face saluted Qian Lianshi: "It's just that this time my subordinates are slow and two hours late, and I ask my father-in-law to bear with me, and I will not dare to forget the benefits of my father-in-law in the future." ”

"Boss Shen is polite," the person in front of him is the head of Shen Qing's class, thinking of the silver ticket he just received from the other party, Qian Lian spoke a little politely: "Today's play is very important, not only long live the lord, but also the ladies of the palaces, maybe even the queen mother and her old man will come over, if you play well, your Shen Qingban will be famous, and it will be a lot of money in the future." ”

"This is all the kindness of my father-in-law, this time our Shenqing class can be successful, in front of the emperor and the queen mother, I must not dare to forget the great kindness of my father-in-law, and I must burn incense for the public brand when I go back." The middle-aged man laughed respectfully.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say," Qian Lian waved the dust, and said in an official voice in a sharp voice: "The rest will be handed over to you first, but you have to do it well, let's go to the side hall to take a look first, and then check here when we come back." ”

"Yes, yes, yes, I must not disappoint my father-in-law...... "The middle-aged man sent Qian Lian away with a sneer.

Walking out of the main hall, Qian Lian couldn't help but touch his arms. Hehe, five hundred taels! I didn't expect a small Shenqing class to have so much oil and water, and it was so easy to make a fortune, and no one knew that there was no need to share it with the master who sucked the blood and peeled the skin. Hehe, if only there were a little more of this kind of thing. After a busy day, he went to the side hall to rest and rest, Qian Lian happily turned around and walked back.

The Taiye Pond is built in the northwest of the harem and covers a huge area, which is far from being comparable with the other two pools. There is a long corridor from the Tianxiang Garden that goes deep into the lake in a zigzag way, which is convenient for enjoying the scenery, and there are several small islands in the lake, all of which build pavilions on them, and plant all kinds of famous flowers around them, for the concubines to stop the boat and dock when they are tired of swimming in the lake, and rest and enjoy. It's not the time to open up yet. It looks like just a few lonely deserted islands. One of the islands near the shore is connected to Tianxiang Garden by a flying bridge, which is built beautifully and windingly, and the terrain is extremely high.

"Master, don't do it! The terrain is dangerous, and if anything goes wrong, we can't afford it. Without waiting for Su Mi to speak, Cui'er, the palace maid beside Qiyan, couldn't help but plead. At the moment, the snow has not melted, the road is extremely slippery, and the bridge is steep and high.

"Hmph, this doesn't work, that doesn't work, in the end am I the master or you are the master." Qi Yan said angrily.

Several people turned their eyes to Su Mi for help, counting on Su Mi to stop him. Su Mi was also a novelty, she had never seen this kind of building, so she naturally ignored the eyes of a few people. Everyone had no choice but to follow behind.

The two stepped on the flying bridge, looked at it, suddenly lit up in front of them, the scenery of Taiye Pond was in full view, under the slanting sun, the snow lake was frozen and boundless, which was dotted with several small islands, the pavilions and pavilions on the island were surrounded, and now it has made people feel that the ingenuity is unique, and when the flowers bloom in spring, it must be a beautiful scenery of sparkling water and the fragrance of flowers.

Turning around, it is a plum forest, looking down from the top, the whole Tianxiang Garden is even more moving, like a sea of fragrant snowflakes, raging and stretching. Occasionally, a cold wind blows, and the petals fly in the air with snow particles, such as the goddess scattering flowers, the dark fragrance floats, the colorful wind is magnificent, and it is a hundred times more wonderful than watching it from the flat ground.

From the edge of Merlin, the luxurious palace pavilions spread out, and the high pavilions and pavilions are scattered and uneven, reflecting the sunset of the western sky, just like the heavenly palace, making people feel that this body is not in the world.

is a prosperous and gorgeous scenery, looking at the beautiful scenery in front of her, Qiyan couldn't help but sigh, and the palace maids around her couldn't help but revel in it.

Su Mi's eyes were dizzy, but there was an indescribable irritability in his heart, he only felt that this magnificent palace tower was like an ancient man-eating beast, silently waiting, and the red sunset behind him was more like a blood-light color, making people dizzy. The world only sees the magnificence in front of them, but they don't know how much filth and filth are contained in it.

"Okay, it's too windy here, don't stay long, I'll go down first." After watching it for a long time, he only felt that he was about to sink, Su Mi didn't want to look any more, turned around and strolled down the flying bridge.

Qiyan hesitated for a moment, and reluctantly followed behind, such a beautiful scenery, my sister didn't look at it much.

As soon as she took a step, Qiyan suddenly found something and stretched out her head excitedly, "Look, sister, there's a boat underneath, and in the summer, we can row and play." "There are always small painting boats for concubines in the three pools in the palace, and it is winter when there are naturally no concubines interested in swimming in the lake, so the small painting boats are neatly moored under the bridge.

"Be careful, don't fall off." Su Mi had already gotten off the bridge and said with a smile.

"How is it possible, the railing is so hard," Qiyan replied with a smile. "Ah, wait for me!" Seeing that Su Mi was about to enter Merlin, Qiyan hurriedly walked down, at this time, suddenly his feet slipped, and before everyone could react, Qiyan fell down suddenly, leaning on the guardrail on the side, blocked by the guardrail, the guardrail around him was very short, and Qiyan actually planted under the bridge.

Everyone suddenly exclaimed, there was water below, and Qiyan was planted at this end, although his life was fine, but now the water in the pool is as cold as ice and snow, I am afraid that the child will ......

At this moment, a black shadow flew by on the shore, stretched out his hand to grab Qiyan's body in mid-air, fell straight down, lightly swept to the shore in the small boat under the bridge, and stopped beside Su Mi.

The change at this moment was too drastic, and everyone didn't come back to their senses.

Su Mi stepped back slightly, and looked at it, it was a guard about twenty-three or four years old, with handsome eyebrows and a gentle bearing, and he was also dressed in a dark and gold-edged guard uniform, but it was not the one he had just met.

He raised his head violently with Qiyan in one hand, facing Su Mi who was standing on the shore in the wind, only to feel that the person in front of him was dressed plainly, his skin was greasy like snow, his eyebrows were as light as smoke, and his eyes were as clear as water.

"Ahhh Qiyan was frightened, and only then did she react and scream.

He came back to his senses suddenly, although it was out of helplessness to save people just now, but it was really inappropriate to hold the body of the harem maid like this. Hurriedly put Qiyan aside, knelt down on one knee and said, "I was in a hurry just now, I offended the nobles, and I ask for forgiveness." ”

He was originally patrolling the guard here, but as soon as he walked here, he heard an exclamation in the distance, and saw someone falling down in the air on the high flying bridge, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he immediately flew to the ground, and saved the person with a vertical foot.

At this time, when he saw Qiyan and Su Mi's clothes, he immediately understood that most of the two of them were concubines, and hurriedly knelt down to ask for guilt.

"It's okay, it's okay, I want to thank you for saving your life, I didn't expect it to ......be so slippery there," Qiyan's face was still pale, and he stroked his chest in shock.

"Please get up, I don't know who this is?" Su Mi asked.

"Ni Tingxuan, the deputy commander of the lowly guard."

"It turned out to be Deputy Commander Ni, please get up, it's our sisters who are too careless and cause trouble to the commander." Su Mi smiled kindly and naturally, with a good demeanor.

Ni Tingxuan stood up, looked up at Su Mi's flower-like smile, couldn't help but have a hot face, don't look over, don't dare to look at it again.

"I don't know if Commander Ni is passing by here, or?"

"The lower official is in charge of the inspection work here, and I just heard the ......"

"I'm glad you passed through here, otherwise, I would have been in danger just now, and the water here is not as hot as the blue wave pool." Qi Yan lingered on the side, and the tunnel did not disappear.

"I know that the water here is cold, but I dare to be so careless and pull others to swim with you." Su Mi's eyes turned to Qiyan's stomach, half blaming, half joking.

Qiyan stuck out her tongue, looking at the lake with ice floe, she was also a little scared and didn't dare to speak. As soon as he turned his head, he saw Ni Tingxuan turning his head to look at this side, and suddenly thought of what he had just held in his arms, he couldn't help but blush, lowered his head, and peeked at Ni Tingxuan.

At this time, the palace people around the two also arrived, and they gathered around the two, worried and greeting.

Ni Tingxuan saw that there was nothing to do, and knew that he should not stay in the harem for too long, so he hurriedly said goodbye and left.

Watching him gradually move away, the two of them had different expressions in an instant, Su Mi's eyes flashed with an uncertain brilliance, Qiyan had the heart to say something, but he didn't know what to say, and suddenly a faint sorrow appeared in his heart, and he lowered his head and gently stroked the corners of his clothes.

"Fortunately, someone saved the master, otherwise we would have been beaten to death by the queen and the concubine......" Cui'er said.

"Liu Cairen just slipped a little, fortunately, Jiren Tianxiang, with the blessing of the emperor and the queen, safe and sound, this kind of trivial matter, do you still need to disturb the queen?" Su Mi quickly interrupted Cui'er's words and looked coldly at the palace people beside her.

Swept by her eyes, everyone's hearts couldn't help but tighten, and they thought that if this matter got out, they would not be able to get rid of the charge of poor service, and if they were strictly investigated, they would inevitably be sent to the hard labor department, so they hurriedly bowed their heads and said yes.

Su Mi then turned to smile and said, "My sister is frightened, it's better to go to the small side hall to rest." I think I've had enough fun today, so let's go back. ”

Qiyan didn't look belonging, and she didn't have any interest, so she nodded and agreed. Su Mi saw that she was listless, but she thought that the fright just now might be too heavy, and she didn't think much about it.

The palace people couldn't wait to hear this, as if they had been pardoned, and immediately hugged the two of them to the small side hall.

Ni Tingxuan was strolling in the forest, thinking about it, Leng Buding was tapped on the shoulder, startled, and turned around to see that it was his friend, Mu Qinghan, who was also the deputy commander of the guard.

The internal guard originally set up a president to lead a person, deputy commander two, now the president is the elder Shi Qian of Daqi, he served the emperor of the three dynasties of Daqi, served in the palace for more than 40 years, can be described as highly respected, but is already nearly sixty years old, old and frail is not very careful, but I am afraid that only two or three years of the situation will be retired. At that time, it must be one of the two people, Ni Tingxuan and Mu Qinghan, to take over the position of commander, in the eyes of outsiders, these two should have their own factions and compete fiercely, but in fact, the two are very good friends in private.

Mu Qinghan was born in a long-standing family of the Qi State, and the upstart faction led by the Ni family was originally mortal enemies in court politics, which did not affect the friendship between the two at all. Maybe it's because the Mu family has already declined and is not deeply involved in court politics, and Mu Qinghan has a straightforward and cheerful temperament, and the two entered the guard team at about the same time, so they have always intersected.

"What are you thinking? I looked so distracted, I didn't even notice that I was so close. Mu Qinghan asked.

"Nothing, weren't you ordered to clean up the main hall?"

"We're just responsible for guarding and protecting, and the layout in the palace is all about the eunuchs being busy. And ......" Mu Qinghan glanced at Ni Tingxuan and smiled thiefly: "If it didn't come out at the right time, how could it catch up with such a good show." Hey, don't be in a hurry to deny it, I've seen it all. ”

"See what?" Ni Tingxuan couldn't help but ask a little weakly.

"Of course it's a scene where the hero saves the beauty, how about it, it feels good to have a beauty in your arms, right?" Mu Qinghan patted him on the shoulder and laughed loudly.

Ni Tingxuan almost fell down and glared at the friend fiercely.

Mu Qinghan didn't give up, didn't let him go at all, grabbed his shoulder, and said with a straight face: "Don't worry, I deliberately explored the surroundings to ensure that no one will see it except me, even if someone sees it, brother, I will definitely kill the Buddha, God will kill God, and I will never allow anyone to destroy your good deeds, so you don't have to worry." Hahahaha...... "Soon after he left the temple gate, he saw Qiyan fall from the bridge, followed by the part where Ni Tingxuan flew to save people, with his eyesight, he immediately recognized the figures of the two, and immediately carefully explored the surroundings, but fortunately, the whole process was only an instantaneous effort, and no one else noticed.

"What a good thing! A little thing is also so dirty as you say. Ni Tingxuan was ashamed and annoyed, and smashed this bad friend with his elbow fiercely, Mu Qinghan had already blocked it with a slight mistake ...... back, but you immediately pretended to be seriously injured, "Hey, you are too unwilling, so you will be annoyed and angry, in vain, I am not afraid of hardships and dangers, and I will ask for the name of that beautiful woman for you, and you will take revenge like this."

Ni Tingxuan glanced at him angrily, ignored him anymore, turned his head and strode forward, Mu Qinghan saw that he didn't react, so he had to follow.

The body walked forward, but unconsciously began to think of the graceful and beautiful figure, the two were silent for a moment, Ni Tingxuan finally couldn't help it, hesitated slightly, and asked, "Who?" ”

"Huh? What's who? Mu Qinghan next to him didn't react for a while.

"That's what you just said." Ni Tingxuan turned his head, this kid must have done it on purpose.

"Ah, you won't ask those two ......," Mu Qinghan came back to his senses at this time, and immediately looked at him with a malicious gaze.

Ni Tingxuan's face couldn't help but turn red, "I was dizzy, and I couldn't help but ask him," He has always been introverted, and after getting acquainted with this guy, he is often deliberately used by him to make jokes, and every time he is so angry that he can't do it, but he has no skills to do. Today's question, I'm afraid that I don't know what he will make fun of in the future.

"Now in this Tianxiang Garden, in addition to our guards, there are those eunuchs, oh, there are some craftsmen or something. If you want to talk about women, there must be only ......," Mu Qinghan said, looking at Ni Tingxuan with a snicker.

"Just say what you want, don't sell it here." Ni Tingxuan said angrily.

"You're really boring, of course, the two talented people who are being favored now." Seeing that his colleagues had a tendency to go berserk, Mu Qinghan quickly said the answer, which was really annoying and boring.

"I heard that those two were originally just palace maids, and they couldn't imagine that they were so beautiful, no wonder they were favored by the emperor, especially that Su Cairen, who was really elegant and elegant like a fairy, and his demeanor was like jade. Of course, the Liu Cairen who was held in your arms is not bad, sweet and lovely. Mu Qinghan said yearningly: "It's a pity that we don't have a chance." ”

"Okay, is that what we should say? Be careful to be heard, and think about what this crime is. It turned out that she was the newly sealed talented Su Mi, and Ni Tingxuan was slightly stunned. Although I never thought that there would be any chance, but when I thought of the figure in plain clothes, I still felt an indescribable irritability in my heart, what were I expecting? Looking at their dress, they should have been concubines, do you still expect her to be just an insignificant palace maid?

"Don't worry, there is no one in a radius of 100 meters here, only two little palace maids in the northwest are folding plum blossoms, if they are so far away and they have to be overheard to talk, our two guard commanders don't do it, just go to be eunuchs."

Ni Tingxuan is just talking, the martial arts of the two of them are outstanding among the guards, and with the skills of the two of them, there are people in this vicinity who will definitely not escape their ears and eyes.

"Alas, the beauties of the world have been accepted into the palace, what are we ordinary people going to do?" Someone stretched and continued to grumble.

"Ting Xuan, why are you stunned?" When he turned around, he saw his friend with a blank look, and Mu Qinghan's words interrupted his thoughts.

Ni Tingxuan came back to his senses and said with a smile: "No matter how beautiful a beauty is, how can she compare to your fiancée, brother?" Don't you hear people compliment her on her beauty all day long? ”

Hearing Ni Tingxuan mention his fiancée, Mu Qinghan's face was also slightly red. He was born in a family of Mu, his ancestors were once one of the founding fathers of the Qi country, and then he has always been a famous family, but unfortunately the men in the family are thin, and in recent years there have been some signs of decline, to his generation, his father died early, only orphans and widows remain, fortunately, the title is still there, and the elders of the court and the central government have taken care of them in the past, he still entered the palace safely as a guard, and his martial arts are also good, and he has been promoted to the current deputy commander. His fiancée is their immediate boss - the youngest daughter of Shi Qian, the commander of the Ouchi guard, who was the baby kiss set for marriage when his father was still alive, and I heard that the other party is a famous beauty.

"I haven't met people a few times, so how do I know if it's good or bad." Speaking of his fiancée, the two often played together when they were young, but in recent years, due to the absence of a father and the widowhood of the mother, the two families have not been in contact as often as before. He was raised by his mother since he was a child, and his mother's family style was strict and polite, and she would never see each other as an unmarried man. So Mu Qinghan doesn't know how his fiancée has been born in the past few years, but he vaguely remembers the little girl when she was young.

"Even if you haven't seen it, but you've heard all the words in the capital, who doesn't know that the youngest daughter of the Shi Commander family is a fairy-like beauty." Thinking of being teased by this guy every day, and finally winning back a city, Ni Tingxuan looked at Mu Qinghan's rare and somewhat embarrassed appearance with amusement.

"Someone is coming," Ni Tingxuan suddenly looked up, and he noticed someone approaching in front of him.

Mu Qinghan didn't know how to deal with it, so he finally relieved him, and listened carefully for a while: "It's your brother." You're too irresponsible, and you're leaving them alone. ”

Ni Tingxuan couldn't help laughing, "Don't complain about me, you didn't come here alone, your subordinates are all in a hurry, let's go and have a look, don't forget that this time you are in charge of the inner hall, and I am in charge of the periphery." Your responsibilities are heavier than mine. ”

As the two spoke, they led the people separately.

In all the gardens of the palace, there are small side halls for the concubines to rest and change clothes.

As soon as Su Mi and Qiyan approached, the palace maids who were already waiting here greeted them, and they originally planned to go directly to the evening banquet during this visit to the garden, and they didn't have to go back to the palace to change their clothes and hairpin rings, so they brought all the palace clothes, leaving two palace maids here to watch.

Qiyan took off her clothes, threw off her shoes, sat down on the soft couch at once, stretched her waist lazily, and breathed a sigh of relief, "Sister doesn't know, I was really frightened by me just now, and I was about to touch the water, oh my God!" How cold the water must be! ”

"Qiyan, be quiet, didn't you say it, don't mention today's matter, be careful of too many people." Su Mi interrupted her.

Qiyan thought about it and understood the truth. As a palace concubine, although the situation was in crisis at that time, it was really a last resort, but it was still inappropriate to have physical contact with a young man, and she knew that she had made such a disaster that almost endangered the dragonborn, and she would have to be reprimanded a lot when she went back. She then stopped, reclining on the soft couch for a moment, and then said, "I'll try on new clothes." "Ran into the inner room.

Su Mi also got up to change her clothes, Mi Qing was helping her take off her shoes, her heart suddenly moved, she looked at no one around, and said in a low voice: "You go and bring the shoes that Qiyan just changed to show me." ”

Mi Qing was slightly taken aback, and then went over and bent down to pick up the shoes that Qiyan had just changed.

This is a pair of new shoes embroidered with red silk peony, Su Mi turned over the shoes in his hand, because the snow outside is thick and unmelted, so the concubines in the palace are wearing embroidered shoes at the bottom of the flower pot, the sole is supported by a square square wooden block, it is not very convenient to walk, but it can avoid shoes and socks being wet by the snow. Qiyan's shoes were made with himself, and they were just sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs yesterday.

Su Mi picked up one of his own, compared the two with each other, and sure enough! Qiyan's shoes were touched by someone, and they were also brand new shoes, but the bottom of the wooden block of Qiyan's sole was slightly inclined to form an inclined plane, and the edges around it were slightly rounded. If it weren't for the comparison with your new shoes, it would be really noticeable.

Such shoes are certainly easy to slip on your feet.

Who did it?

Empress? can not only solve the child, but also suppress Ni Guifei. Since she also broke the news of her pregnancy, Qi Long originally planned to be taken care of by the queen and Ni Guifei like Qiyan. But the queen said that the two of them taking care of each other would be distracted, and there would be many negligences, so it was better for the two to take care of one each, so the emperor changed his will, and the queen took care of Su Mi and Ni Guifei took care of Qiyan.

Ni Guifei? Although Ni Guifei was ordered to take care of Qiyan's child, if Qiyan fell down because of her own play, the emperor would not be too harsh on her.

Or someone else?

It seems that I really have to thank Zheng Guifei for that batch of fetal pills, so that I don't know how much worry I don't know. Su Mi smiled secretly and put the shoes back in their place.

At this time, Mi Hong walked in with her clothes and lifted the curtain, and said, "Master, I see that the hour is coming, so it is better to change your clothes and prepare." ”

"Okay, just clean it up." Su Mi also got up and went into the back room, Qiyan was sitting in front of the dresser, and when she saw Su Mi coming in, she said, "My sister came just in time, I just got it done." ”

Qiyan stood up, she was dressed in a water-red rich Ruyi palace dress, covered with a silver-red floral shoulder, pinned a few delicate pearl hairpins on her head, and neatly tied her hair in a jade bun, and two pale red silk flowers sprinkled with gold and silver were inserted behind the bun. Tonight's banquet is the main seat, you need to dress according to the grade, the palace is very strict about the dress management of the concubines and concubines, because the grade of the two is too low, there are naturally many restrictions, and the golden phoenix and the like can't go up, so the body in front of me is not as gorgeous as before.

Qiyan tugged at the corners of her clothes not very satisfied, "Alas, there are many rules in this palace, when you want to dress beautifully, you just don't let people wear them, and when you don't want to dress up, there are a bunch of dead rules." ”

"When you give birth to the little prince, you don't just wear whatever you want, and who dares to say no." Su Mi sat down and said with a smile. Mi Qing immediately stepped forward to groom her.

"How long will it take," Qiyan couldn't help but cry, "Sometimes I really want to be good without this child, ah, no, if only I hadn't bathed in the blue wave pool that day...... In this way, in a few years, I can go home to see my father and mother. There is no need to separate in the future, you can eat the dishes made by your mother whenever you want, which is like ...... now" As she spoke, Qiyan's expression was gloomy for a moment.

Su Mi looked back at her, she was still a child after all, and she was suddenly unconsciously swept into this palace and this harem before she really understood it, was this a blessing or a curse for her? If she is always just an obscure little palace maid, living peacefully and lonely by the blue wave pool for ten years, and letting go after ten years, although she has passed the best age for a woman to marry, but relying on the financial resources of the Liu family, she can still find an honest man for her, and spend her life peacefully by her parents' husband, compared to the wealth of the heavenly family, this is not a kind of happiness.

"Homesick?" Su Mi turned around and picked up a pearl hairpin, "Actually, it's not a difficult thing, wait until the fetus is a few months away, just ask the emperor and the queen mother to summon their family members into the palace to visit, with the emperor's love for you, you will definitely not agree." Su Mi said with a smile.

"Well," Qiyan was stunned and lowered her head, she is not a woman from a noble family after all, if she is a noble-born woman, her mother is mostly an official wife, and she can usually enter the palace every few months according to the rules, and if she is pregnant, her mother can enter the palace every month. And a woman from a humble background like them, whose families are all ordinary people, is naturally not worthy of entering the palace.

What is the difference between this luxurious palace and a cage?

"Isn't your father going to donate an official, maybe it will be done in a few days, and then it will be a young lady of your family. Mother can also come in and see you more often. ”

"Maybe." Qiyan said sullenly, she also knew that she couldn't have too much hope, when Concubine Yun was pregnant, she asked her family to visit in the palace, but she only allowed it once every two months, at that time, Concubine Yun's father was already an official from the fourth grade, and Concubine Yun was favored and unmatched.

After a while, Su Mi also finished her makeup and stood up. She wore a light blue palace dress, two curved beads to hold the three-foot green silk, and a jasper bead flower obliquely on the side of the bun, without powder, but there was a delicate charm, fresh and moving.

"My sister just looks better than me when she dresses up." Qiyan couldn't help but sigh. "It's much better than those concubines. I'm afraid that only Concubine Yun can compare to it in the entire palace. ”

"It's just your little sweet mouth." Su Mi said with a smile. "You can't talk nonsense." One sentence offended most of the other concubines.

"I know, I don't dare to say it in front of outsiders, can't I say it in private?" Qiyan laughed.

The two of them said as they walked out of the back room. Qiyan walked outside and put on her shoes.

"It's all down the road in the promenade, and there are not a few steps in the snow, so I don't think I need to wear these shoes." Su Mi said with a smile. "It's not comfortable for the feast at the back to sit in the temple in this one."

"It's okay, these shoes are bulky and heavy to wear, and it's not convenient to walk at all, and I want to throw them away for a long time." Qiyan nodded, called the palace maid, and changed into a pair of ordinary red plum embroidered shoes.
