Nie Yan didn't notice that Su Yun was wrong, so she casually responded.

Su Yun hurriedly retreated to the side hall, because Cao Chun did not see her when he followed Wan Hui into the hall.

Cao Chun forcibly suppressed the urge to ask Nie Yan directly, and saluted respectfully: "Weichen has seen Concubine Shu. ”

Nie Yan smiled: "Cao Yuan is invited." There is a Lao Cao Yuan who is personally coming to the main palace to ask for peace. ”

"Niangniang has tormented Weichen, this is a matter of Weichen's duty."

Cao Chun replied, took out the silk handkerchief from the medicine box, and asked for Nie Yan's pulse.

When he was young, Cao Chunfang said: "Niangniang is no longer in serious trouble, but if Niangniang wants to give birth to an heir for the emperor as soon as possible, please eat less raw and cold things." ”

Nie Yan didn't expect that this Cao Chun could even see that her food was raw and cold, but she quickly smiled: "It's been hot these days, and this palace is a little cold." ”

Cao Chun nodded slightly when he heard this, but he didn't say more, and it was enough to say that.

No matter how much you say, I'm afraid it will attract Nie Yan's taboo.

"Weichen prescribed some conditioning prescriptions for Niangniang, and asked Niangniang to send a palace person to the imperial pharmacy to get medicine."

After Cao Chun finished speaking, he got up and retired.

Nie Yan instructed Wan Hui to say, "Wan Hui, go and send Cao Yuanzheng." ”

Wan Hui should be.

Cao Chun specially came to Beichen Palace, waiting for this time, so he was not polite to Nie Yan.

After Wan Hui led Cao Chun out of the palace, Cao Chun asked: "The girl is the palace maid in charge of the Shufei Palace, and the people who want to come to the Shufei Niangniang's side, the girl is familiar with it, right?" ”

Wan Hui followed Mama Ying every day, and she was exposed to a lot of secrets in the palace, and when she heard Cao Chun ask, she immediately became wary and said, "What do you want to do?" ”

Cao Chun saw that Wan Hui was very wary of him, and said with a wry smile: "Don't worry, girl, I definitely have no bad intentions." I just want to inquire about the whereabouts of the deceased. ”

When Wan Hui heard this, she didn't move.

Cao Chun saw that Wan Hui did not directly refuse, so he seized the opportunity and said: "The old man's surname is Xu Suyun, who used to be a border passer, and came to Beijing with Concubine Shu. ”

When Wan Hui heard this, she said in her heart: Isn't Xu Suyun Sister Suyun?

Cao Chun saw the change in Wan Hui's expression in his eyes, and he was overjoyed, but he was soon poured cold water by Wan Hui and said: "There is no such person here." Cao Yuanzheng, please go. ”

Cao Chun saw that Wan Hui didn't want to say more, but he was not discouraged, after all, Beichen Palace was here, so it was a big deal to come and ask for peace a few more times, maybe one day he would run into it.

It was a polite farewell and departed.

At night, when Su Yun and Wan Hui were keeping vigil in the side hall, Wan Hui told her about Cao Chun's inquiry about Su Yun today.

"Sister Suyun, I don't know if you recognize that Cao Yuanzheng, but I didn't tell him that you were here."

Wan Hui saw Su Yun's worried look, and couldn't help but explain.

Seeing Wan Hui's nervous face, Su Yun relieved her expression and said, "It's okay, I just don't want to have any more intersections with people from the past." If he comes back later, you should let me know sooner. ”

Wan Hui nodded in response, and didn't ask much about the relationship between Su Yun and Cao Chun, Mama Ying said, in the palace, curiosity is a big taboo.

Su Yun looked at the night sky outside the window, not knowing what he was thinking.

It has been a few days since Jiang Guifei was the assistant to the Sixth Palace, and although Empress Xu was constantly stumbling on Jiang Guifei, she was resolved by Jiang Guifei one by one.

As for Concubine Zhao, although Concubine Qi asked to see Xiao Yu many times for her, she was rejected by Xiao Yu.

Fang Cairen has also recovered his body and often comes to make tea with Nie Yan.

Nie Yan seemed to have forgotten the haunting incident made by Concubine Qi, and quietly lived her own little life in Beichen Palace.

But this silence only lasted for half a month, and it was broken by Jiang Guifei.

"Niangniang, Concubine Jiang invites you to go to the Peony Pavilion to enjoy the flowers."

Hearing this, Nie Yan put down the scroll in her hand, and the corners of her mouth hooked slightly: "She finally can't sit still." Prepare it. ”

The Peony Pavilion was built by an emperor for the peony fairy in his dream, and it is the most beautiful place in the Chu Palace in addition to the imperial garden, and it is also the most quiet one.

"My sister looks at this peony and thinks it can afford the reputation of the king of flowers?"

Jiang Guifei asked Xiang Nie Yan meaningfully.

Nie Yan didn't answer for the time being, but she stepped forward, broke off a peony that was blooming brightly, and said to Jiang Guifei with a smile: "Flowers can be broken and must be broken, don't wait for no flowers to break the branches." According to my sister, the king of flowers gave it to my sister, which is a perfect match. ”

After that, Nie Yan handed the peony flower she picked to Jiang Guifei.

Jiang Guifei was stunned for a moment, then took the peony in Nie Yan's hand knowingly, and said, "What my sister meant, this palace understands." ”

"The Xu family was originally raised by His Majesty in order to counter the powerful ministers and elders left by the previous emperors such as Zhenguo Gong, but I didn't expect that in this harem, these two families became allies."

Jiang Guifei talked about Empress Xu and Concubine Qi with a mocking face.

"Even if they all add up, they must not be my sister's opponents, are they?"

Nie Yan knew that Jiang Guifei called her here today, and it was definitely not as simple as asking her to stand in line. At present, Queen Xu and Concubine Qi have joined forces, although it is not enough to bring down Jiang Guifei, but it can form a countervailing trend.

Jiang Guifei has already obtained the right to associate the sixth palace, and naturally she will not be willing to stop at the position of concubine, because this balance must be broken.

Jiang Guifei gave Nie Yan an approving look and said, "Yes, this palace already has Concubine Qi's handle in her hands, but as long as there is the Zhenguo Mansion, Concubine Qi will not be able to fall." ”

After saying that, Nie Yan could sense that Jiang Guifei seemed to be quite jealous of the Zhenguo Mansion.

Also, the Jiang family has always only had civilian officials, and military attachés have none, let alone military power. And the Zhenguo Mansion is the existence of heavy troops.

"My sister thinks that Zhen Guogong is a person who takes care of the overall situation." Nie Yan said with a smile.

The implication is that as long as the handle in Jiang Guifei's hand is enough to contain the Zhenguo Mansion, the Zhenguo Mansion will definitely make a trade-off between the overall situation and Concubine Qi's daughter.

When Jiang Guifei heard this, she seemed to have an understanding, but she didn't say anything more to Nie Yan.

Nie Yan knew that Concubine Jiang Guifei must have a plan, so she didn't say anything more. The two of them admired the peony seriously for a while before they dispersed.

Although Nie Yan held a burned waist card of the Zhenguo Mansion in her hand, she was unwilling to hand over the waist card to Jiang Guifei to make a fuss.

It's just a mutual use with the Jiang family, if you give out all your hole cards, wouldn't it be slaughtered by others?

The next day, Nie Yan was lying on the couch flipping through the Book of Poetry, but saw Mama Ying hurriedly entering the hall and said, "Concubine Niangniang, the concubine is invited." ”

Nie Yan frowned, this Concubine Su had never seen her since she left Mama Ying in Beichen Palace, even if she took the initiative to ask for peace, she had never allowed to see her.

Could it be that something happened to make Mama Ying look for her in such a hurry?

"But the concubine has something important?" Nie Yan asked.

"The concubine never told her, she only said that the mother would know when she went."
