The Qin'an Palace was carefully arranged some time ago, this is the first birthday of the new emperor after ascending the throne, according to the queen mother's intention, it is to hold a grand event.

However, the emperor remembered that the treasury was tight, and the people of Jiangsu and Zhejiang suffered again, so he really couldn't bear to work hard and hurt money, so he decided to do it simply, and the specifications should be reduced by more than half compared with the original budget.

And the entertainment programs that were originally scheduled to be performed at the banquet, such as the opera troupe and acrobatic troupe invited from the people, were all cancelled.

The emperor issued an edict and asked each palace in the harem to come up with a program to add to the fun during the banquet.

The will came down, the palace concubines were overjoyed, they usually hardly saw the emperor's face, now this is an opportunity, if you can shine at the emperor's birthday banquet and win the emperor's favor, are you worried about not getting the holy favor?

As far as the harem is concerned, all the things that are for the emperor are the affairs of the concubines, and whoever wins will be able to obtain the Sacred Heart and thus rise to prominence.

Therefore, the concubines of each palace racked their brains and rehearsed the show. There was only Kunning Palace, and there was silence.

Under the dense wisteria tree, Leng Qinghuan wore a gauze robe, prostrate himself on the chaise longue, drowsy.

On one side, Cai Ping held a fan to fan her to relieve fever.

The sun shimmers golden, scattered through the layers of branches and leaves, speckled and speckled, but also pleasant.

In the distance, the sound of silk and bamboo was heard from time to time, disturbing the dream.

Leng Qinghuan turned over, sticky, and couldn't help but be a little irritable, "The emperor is really, just cancel the entertainment program, what kind of program do you want the concubines to take?" It's good now, the palaces sing every night, and even if you take a nap at noon, you won't be at peace. ”

Cai Ping stepped forward, and the fan in her hand sped up, "Don't be angry, the emperor also wants to be lively, the harem concubines have nothing to do for a long time, and when people are idle, it is easy to find trouble. ”

Leng Qinghuan was amused by her, "So, the emperor is still not for me?" ”

Pull it down!

As for the scheming little emperor, he may not know what to do.

Cai Ping sighed, "Niangniang, the palace concubines are all preparing for the show, and today, the big eunuch Yuanbao Gongbao next to the emperor also asked the slave maid privately what Kunning Palace wants to perform, and the slave maid only said that she was preparing, but she didn't dare to tell the truth." ”

If you let the emperor know, the queen mother has not prepared anything, she is just sleeping at home, but she will be annoyed.

Leng Qinghuan rubbed his eyes, carelessly, "Yuanbao is the best at speculating about the holy will, since he asked, it is most likely that the emperor is thinking, huh...... In this case, then it is up to you to lead the palace maids to rehearse a birthday song. ”

After that, he continued to sleep with his head buried in his head.

"Niangniang~" Cai Ping snorted, defeated by her indifference and lack of care.

Let's ask which dynasty and which generation, the concubines are not squeezing their heads to please the emperor, but this one, every time the emperor rushes to come, when it comes to doing something for the emperor, then ......

Hey, it's hard to put into words!

In Weiyang Palace, string music slowly sounded.

In the center of the splendid hall, a woman in red, with her water sleeves swinging along with the music.

She looked back and smiled, a charming posture, at the junction of the music, the willow waist twisted, and the whole body began to dance.

The hair is like the light clouds covering the moon, and the fluttering is like the snow of the wind.

It's stunning.

When Rong Guifei boudoir, she danced with a green waist, and her name moved the world, and this time she wanted to celebrate her birthday, so she naturally wanted to show her best talent to show respect.

On a midsummer day, it was extraordinarily hot, and when she danced down, Rong Guifei was drenched in sweat and soaked in clothes.

Song Jieyu took a warm water handkerchief, stepped forward to wipe the sweat of Concubine Rong, and said proudly: "Niangniang's dancing posture is unique in the world, and she will definitely surprise the four at the birthday banquet and win the emperor back completely." ”

The corners of Concubine Rong's mouth overflowed with mockery, "That straw bag, when she was in the boudoir, was famous for being useless in the world, and this palace wants to see how arrogant she is this time!" ”

Song Jieyu smiled sinisterly, "Niangniang, the concubines heard that Kunning Palace didn't prepare anything, if you say that it usually does, forget it, but this time it is the emperor's holy decree, asking the concubines to advocate the program, Kunning Palace, as the master of the six palaces, is so inactive, the emperor will definitely be unhappy." ”

"Wouldn't that be nice? Hahaha...... "Rong Guifei's smiling flowers and branches trembled, and between her eyebrows and eyes, she was full of pride.

Song Jieyu didn't dare to be careless, and lowered her head and said: "Niangniang, now is not the time to be happy, the one in Jiafu Palace, when he did not enter the palace, was also like Niangniang, he was famous in Beijing, and he was a talented person, not to be underestimated." ”

"Oh?" Concubine Rong's laughter stopped, a little curious, "Then what is she going to perform this time?" Can you inquire clearly? ”

Hearing this, a trace of embarrassment appeared on Song Jieyu's face, "Back to Niangniang, Jiafu Palace is impenetrable, even if it is a concubine, I can't ask what that one is going to perform." ”

"It's so mysterious...... Concubine Rong rubbed the handkerchief in her hand, and her face slowly became solemn, "Keep an eye on the palace, and that matter, since she has made the first step, you must add fuel to the fire, and you must pull the queen off the horse." ”

Dare to embarrass her in public, this revenge is not a gentleman!

Hmph, but even if there wasn't such a thing, she wouldn't let her go.

Before the straw bag entered the palace, she was the most promising candidate to become the queen, she had a prominent family background, was born in a famous family, and her appearance was talented, and she was top-notch, but in the end, it was not her.

The honor and status that should have belonged to her were taken away by a straw bag.

The dove occupies the magpie's nest, the stone that stands in the way.

So, she has to die!

Song Jieyu bowed and agreed, her drooping eyes were shining with layers of essence, she was attached to Concubine Rong, no one knew her mind better than her, but ...... How can a shallow and flamboyant person like her assume the responsibility of a queen?

She can't be subservient to her forever, and her goal is far more than Jieyu's position......

Each has a ghost.

Between the concubines, there is no eternal opponent, only a competition of interests.

Leng Qingzi closed the door for a few days, and finally the night before the birthday banquet, the door was open.

Song Jieyu took the palace people and came leisurely, "What has my sister been busy with lately?" My sister has been here several times, but she was blocked back, is my sister going to break up with my sister? ”

Leng Qingzi invited her to sit down, grabbed her hand affectionately, and said with a smile: "How can there be, it's just that my sister has been really busy these days, Qiu Ju, go and give the lotus root flour osmanthus cake I made myself to my sister, the right is my sister's compensation, my sister should not be angry with my sister anymore." ”

A delicate brocade box was handed to him, and before it was opened, the aroma was already overflowing, Song Jieyu's smile deepened, "How does my sister know that I love lotus root powder osmanthus cake the most?" ”

Leng Qingzi glanced at Liu Er beside Song Jieyu, and said apologetically: "Don't hide it from my sister, I asked Liu Er and I found out, sister, don't blame Liu Er, I just want to ......"

"Hey~" Song Jieyu pressed her hand, "What's not weird, my sister is willing to bother for my sister, my sister is overjoyed, how can I be angry again, but tomorrow is the birthday banquet, I heard that the queen didn't prepare anything, I'm afraid I'm going to make the emperor unhappy." ”

Leng Qingzi's heart moved, and she was overjoyed, "Is the queen really not prepared anything?" How's that going to work? ”

Song Jieyu grabbed her who stood up anxiously, and said with a smile: "Sister, don't worry, it's better for my sister to accompany you to Kunning Palace, if Niangniang is really unprepared, let's come up with an idea." ”

"What you said makes sense, then it's troublesome for my sister......"
