The crescent moon sat on the head of the gilded brocade horse at the door of Changxinxuan's private warehouse, leaning softly and weakly against the red door, and the slender hand like an onion gently rubbed the ankle, revealing a white jade ankle. Looking at it from a distance, I only feel that the whole person is thin and subtle, which reminds people of countless poignant poems.

The lights of Mu Beiyi's honor guard slowly approached. The crescent moon half-covered her face with a cyan embroidered primrose sleeve, revealing two eyes with affection, and whispered in disgust.

"Why didn't the Moon Imperial Maiden sit in it and guard the door when she broke her ankle?" Pillow Chun pulled the shawl, the door was blown by the evening breeze, his steps were gentle, and he went up to lead her, "The wind and dew are cold outside, Mo Ankle still hurts, and people are cold again." ”

When the crescent moon heard the sound, she was also surprised: "The little master of the concubine." ”

Mu Beiyi was happy, and entered the private treasury with his hand: "I have promoted Guiyi, and now I have a body." You two don't have to talk in the limelight, just come in. ”

The crescent moon suddenly realized, the hand that avoided the pillow spring was like a poisonous snake, but his face was humble: "Congratulations to Ming Guiyi." She limped and sneered into the storeroom.

Pillow Chun simply ignored it, and glanced at the ankle of the crescent moon, but it was really red, swollen and purple, and it was really bitter.

When you enter the private treasury of Changxinxuan, you will understand what it means to be rich and wealthy in the heavenly family. The private treasury is not as good as the national treasury, and the private treasury of Changxinxuan is only the most precious of the tribute treasures in the past years. Although Mu Beiyi was not a favored prince when he was young, he was also a royal family, and he was used to seeing all kinds of rare treasures. Only if he thinks it is acceptable, he will keep it in Changxinxuan's private treasury for weekday rewards and play.

When you enter the door, open a golden gauze tent, there are two rows of eight treasure pavilions, and the pavilions are all colored mutton fat jade pieces. There are two rows at the back, all of which are jadeite of the same color. The sandalwood screen of the ice silk embroidered begonia, and then the first place is coral, jade, red agate, and black agate...... When I walked half a cup of tea, I saw a bright red gold-framed bronze mirror, which was the first to enter the door. Push the door out, pass by the bamboo railing, and cross the two-step verandah, which is the second entry. The second left hand room is all kinds of cloth, the right hand room is calligraphy and painting, and there is a courtyard behind it is old porcelain. Along the way, every step of the treasure is everywhere. About half an hour, I was overwhelmed by the pillow spring.

Everywhere you go, every pavilion is illuminated by lights, and the reflection is brilliant and extraordinary. It's hard to think that after the country was broken in history, the palace of the Son of Heaven was always ransacked, which is really memorable.

The palace ladies who guarded the treasury in Changxin Xuan were very honest, all of them lowered their eyebrows and were pleasing to their eyes, neither looking at treasures nor at the Son of Heaven.

"The palace beside Your Majesty has good rules, and the Qianxi Palace is really different from the place next to it." Pillow Chun praised.

Although it was an unintentional word, the crescent moon listened to it and bowed its head, and followed it like a needle prick.

Mu Beiyi bowed: "The reason why I counted the cloth this time is that I want to open a private treasury to reward meritorious soldiers." When the time comes, more than half of this place will be vacated...... But there's something left for you. He beckoned to the pillow and took out a circle of red gold inlaid with nine beads from the oncoming camphor cabinet. The inlaid beads look ordinary at first glance, Mu Beiyi picked up the lamp, blew the candle on the side of the pavilion, and saw the nine beads shining on the flutter, all of which were night pearls.

"It's really strange." Pillow Chun took it and looked at it, and the brilliance was reflected in his hand, no different from daylight, "Your Majesty is willing to reward concubines?" ”

Mu Beiyi chuckled: "You save some Tongbao stubbornly, this is full of strong beatings, and it can't be broken when it's full." ”

"Your Majesty rewards the concubine alone, and I forgot that there is also the Moon Maiden." Pillow Spring held the dazzling and precious puff and looked at the crescent moon with a smile.

The crescent moon only felt bad, and bowed her head and said, "The concubine doesn't dare." ”

"It's ...... I can't decide for a while. Mu Beiyi groaned slightly, and took out a bracelet made of colored glass from the treasure drawer, "That's it." Match your glass hairpin. ”

The crescent moon timidly glanced at Pillow Spring and saw that she was smiling inexplicably. In the end, Mu Beiyi still remembered her, so he felt two points of joy, and stepped forward to receive the reward and thank her. When she put the bracelet on her wrist, it was a hand like clotted fat that set off the glass luster, which was very good-looking.

Pillow Chun praised again: "The Moon Imperial Girl has white skin, and sure enough, His Majesty has vision." Rolling up his sleeves, he pointed lightly with his fingertips: "Oops." Your Majesty, I was saying that the Moon Imperial Maiden was white-skinned, and when she was at the door, the concubine saw that the Yue Imperial Maiden's ankles were red and swollen, so don't send it back to Lanyue Pavilion quickly and ask a doctor to take a look. The concubine heard that the pain of the muscles and bones should not be underestimated, and if left unchecked, there is a risk of osteotomy. ”

When Mu Beiyi heard the sound, he looked very serious.

"Concubines are out of the way." Only then did the crescent moon make it clear that Pillow Spring's intention was to send himself away. It is not easy for her to come to Qianxi Palace once, and the identity of the imperial maid is not to see His Majesty every day...... Gritted his teeth and said, "It's just a touch." Your Majesty's silk and satin cloth have not been counted in the past two days, how can the concubine be comfortable for herself, and leave. ”

Pillow Chun's face was full of worry: "The Moon Imperial Girl fell her ankle, and the pain was unbearable, how can it be said that it is not in the way?" Why don't you take off your shoes and socks and let people see what matters? ”

The Moon Maiden refused. In order to be truly pitiful, the ankle was really painful. When he was at the door, he looked at it under the white moonlight, which naturally made people feel distressed. At this time, the pillow spring equinox was obviously sending her away, where was she willing to let go, so she replied: "The concubine is not as good as Ming Guiyi, the little master is a noble girl, and she suffers hardship, so how can you pay attention to these." ”

Pillow Chun's eyes rolled, and he said, "What the Moon Imperial Maiden said is true." Your Majesty, if you say that you want to count the fabrics, you have to check the accounts and look at the books. If you talk about your background, you will be noble, and even your children will be able to teach everything. Nine chapters of arithmetic, but Xi Wanyi's Liu family's tutor is rigorous and the best in learning. The concubine and Sister Liu were handkerchiefs, and when they were young, they counted the river lanterns together, and Sister Liu knew it at a glance. ”

"This ......," Crescent Moon wanted to argue.

"The Moon Maiden also counts?" Pillow Chun's fingers rubbed the gold and asked her with a smile.

The moon maid doesn't say that she counts, and she doesn't know much about words, so it's embarrassing.

Mu Beiyi listened reasonably, the important thing is that Pillow Spring has just had a body now, and there is merit in the clan, so he naturally listens to everything comfortably. bowed his head: "It's up to you to pass on Xi Wanyi." The Moon Imperial Girl took advantage of the fact that the sky was not dark and returned to Lanyue Pavilion earlier, but Mo fell again. ”

The crescent moon grabbed the glass bracelet in her hand, bowed her head and said humbly: "Concubine......." ”

"Be careful on the road." Pillow Spring instructed.

"The concubine obeys."

The crescent moon came out of the three gates of Changxin Xuan, then the second door, and then the vermilion gate of the private warehouse. Immediately, he endured the pain and walked out of the Qianxi Palace. She is only a maid now, and she is not qualified to sit on a soft chariot, so she only supports the discomfort on her feet and goes towards the Chaohua Palace.

Although the sky is not dark, the moon is on its branches in the morning. The bright full moon shone on the crescent moon, and it seemed that her staggering steps were particularly difficult. After walking for about half an hour, he arrived at the door of the Chaohua Palace, and the crescent moon whispered and asked the palace maid Hongyi to communicate: "The concubine asks to see Concubine Qi Shuniang, please also report." ”

Hongyi saw that it was a crescent moon, but it was also polite: "Wait a minute, the moon maid." ”

Shaoqing Hongyi came out and led the crescent moon in. The main entrance of the Chaohua Hall is still hanging with a lamp, all the way around the screen, into the beautifully decorated side house, see Concubine Qi Shufei is half-lying on the small couch eating tea, there is a woman kneeling in front of her.

It was Xue Chuling.

The crescent moon knew that it was unfortunate, and now he had to say hello in front of him: "Concubine Qi, little master Zhen Wanyi." ”

Xue Chuling knelt on the cold ground, turned his head, his cheeks were red, and he cast a look of unknown meaning. The crescent moon shrunk its neck.

"You're not in Changxinxuan, what are you doing here?" Concubine Qi Shu was not very satisfied, frowned and put the white fox fur on the small couch on her knees.

When the crescent moon fell to the ground, she began to sob faintly: "The concubine is useless. Today's recommendation of Niangniang, working in Changxinxuan, I don't know how to kill a concubine...... No, Mingguiyi. She provoked in front of His Majesty, exchanged the concubines, and arranged for Xi Wanyi to go over. The concubine knew that she was not angry, and she wasted the kindness of Concubine Qi in vain, so she came to ask for sin! ”

"Idiot!" Concubine Qi Shufei threw a copy of "A Thousand Golden Fangs" on the case, and beat the corners of the crescent moon's forehead red. The hot tea in her hand splashed with her movements, and all of it was splashed on Xue Chuling's chest. Xue Chuling's whole person trembled slightly, and he didn't say a word. Concubine Qi Shu regained her temper, and then came back to her senses, "What are An's cheap hooves doing with this virtue, isn't it that you have done too much to invite pets and block the path of others?" ”

The crescent moon only shook her head, took out a plain handkerchief from her sleeve and pressed it to the corner of her eyes: "Concubine Qi knows the concubine, and the concubine doesn't have the guts." The concubine just fell down the ladder, and His Majesty came to see the concubine. ”

"Fell?" Concubine Qi Shu chuckled disdainfully: "Then I can't complain that others will change you." She turned the jade bracelet on her hand, "An's move, this is talking to this palace." said that she is favored now, and Her Majesty listens to her and believes in her, and even the people in the palace can change her method. Wake up to Hongu and don't think about her children? She used to look at her as a quiet and timid person, but when she was diagnosed today, she dared to sing against the palace. If there is a prince in the main palace...... Scold! As he spoke, he was angry, raised his hand and scraped his ear and landed on Xue Chuling's face, beating Xue Chuling so hard that he couldn't get up.

The crescent moon was frightened, her body was cold, and she sat directly on the ground.

Concubine Qi Shu sneered: "What does the Moon Imperial Lady do in front of this palace to look pitiful, but she doesn't show it to Your Majesty?" When you pushed the Fufeng County Lord into the water, why didn't you see you shivering? ”

"Lady Niang Honorable ......" the crescent moon buried her head and didn't dare to raise it, "The concubine is in awe in her heart, what the concubine asks the concubine to do, the concubine will do." ”

"You are a useless man, but you are a faithful one." Concubine Qi Shu listened to her anger a little, raised her hand and wiped her face, she was only in her prime, "If there is a prince in this palace, it doesn't matter if you are favored or not." As he spoke, he was also sad, "That's it, because the An clan is rampant, and Your Majesty can't believe her." Who can say for sure about the holy grace, Your Majesty will not be fresh for two days. When she falls out of favor, the palace has a way to clean her up. ”

Xue Chuling struggled to get up from the ground, and knelt back to Concubine Qi Shu's small couch neatly: "Sister, don't be angry. ”

Concubine Qi glanced at her and sneered: "Who is with your sister and sister." The mother of this palace is the daughter of a famous family of the country, and the wife of the sect. Your mother is just a descendant of a salt merchant, a concubine. ”

Xue Chuling covered her face, closed her eyes and took a deep breath, but she was more obedient when she spoke again: "If my mother thinks I will abandon me, I will beat me, as long as I can make my mother angry, it is good." But the concubine doesn't like what she said, now Niangniang is naturally noble for the concubine to regent the six palaces, but no matter the moon maid, concubine, or Niangniang, it is just a concubine room for His Majesty. Although the lord of Fufeng fell into the water, he is still there. If she wakes up, His Majesty will only pity her even more...... If she gets a son in the future, or a concubine, if she is a prince, or a progressive fourth concubine? If there is a queen mother, she will be crowned a concubine, an imperial concubine, or a ......"

The crescent moon replied again and again, kneeling forward, and said: "That's right." The most eye-catching thing in front of him should be the Lord of Fufeng. ”

Concubine Qi snorted lightly, and gently rubbed the corners of her forehead with her fingertips: "I don't know where in this palace." If it can be as when Shi was pregnant, he would send the imperial doctor to use some means. But now that the Qian Court has been appointed by His Majesty to serve in the Yufu Palace, it is not appropriate for the palace to interfere. "I feel a headache when I think about it," that's it, Rong Bengong thinks about it. Go back. ”

The crescent moon was like an amnesty, and hurriedly retired. saw that Xue Chuling in front of him couldn't stand up because he was propped up, so he stepped forward to help. Concubine Qi glanced at it, and the crescent moon trembled again and let go of Xue Chuling's hand. The two stumbled out of the temple gate.

A huge full moon on the square outside the hall illuminated people's hearts in a panic.

"Does it matter if Zhen Wanyi is there?"

Xue Chuling glanced at the red bruise on the crescent moon's head, but said, "Concubine Qi Shuniang has not been pregnant for a long time, so it is inevitable that she will be quick-tempered. You just follow her and accompany her. ”

The crescent moon heard this, and covered her chest timidly: "The concubine is taught." ”

"It is good for you to be timid and humble like this." Xue Chuling took a deep look at the crescent moon, "Concubine Qi is thirty years old, and we are still young......"

The brilliance in the crescent moon's eyes moved, but the meaning was different: "...... Concubines are taught. ”……

This night's Chaohua Hall is long.

Liu Anran was summoned to Qianxi Palace the next day, and just got off the soft sedan chair, just when he saw that Pillow Spring was about to come out. The two of them met at the door, and then looked for a secluded place in the garden outside the temple to talk.

Liu Anran stood faintly in a cluster of flowers and trees, holding Zhuchun's hand and whispering: "You replaced the Moon Imperial Girl with me, although I am happy, I am afraid that you will offend Concubine Qi." ”

"It is to offend her shallowly, so that she will know that I am wary of her and dare not act rashly." Pillow Chun tilted his head and attached his ear, "Concubine Qi Shu is smart and cautious, and her tactics and methods are all the best." If you want to say that she is inadequate, it is that the people under her command are not simple women. I'm afraid that in a few days, Concubine Qi Shu will not be able to distinguish her mind from her to hate me. ”

Liu Anran seemed to understand, and only looked at the pillow spring's bulging lower abdomen: "I thought about it that day, but I didn't know that it would come." She stretched out a hand and gently stroked Zhenchun's belly, "I'm going to make him a tiger head hat." ”

"What do you do to make a tiger head hat, if it is a girl, you need to spend a hat to look good." Pillow Chun teased Liu Anran, "Sister Liu is now spoiled, if she likes her son to be born by herself." ”

provoked Liu Anran to scold, and the two talked and laughed for a while.
