Chapter Eighty-Three: It's About Time

"Done?" Li Wanfeng raised her fingers lightly, her bright red nails glowing in the candlelight.

"Nobleman, now that the Tao family is long gone, Tao Ying has also been reduced to a concubine and lived in the cold palace for a long time, why do you want to provoke her?" Yes, in the inner courtyard of this deep palace, it is not uncommon for newcomers and old people to replace each other, even if the indispensable Concubine Ying is only ended up in the end of no one cares, and the people in this palace treat her as unlucky, and rarely go to the courtyard over there.

"Hmph, how could Tao Ying give up, if she knew that Tao Yao'er was not dead, she would definitely try her best to get rid of it!" Li Wanfeng's methods are not the same as her father's.

"The noble man is wise, borrowing a knife to kill people is the best policy, this Tao Concubine must not have imagined that they are just two people who are similar." The subordinate nodded and said with a huff, his temperament was sycophant and a little brainy, and he was even relied on by Li Wanfeng.

"Tao Ying, I didn't expect you to have today, killing two birds with one stone is cheap for you!" Li Wanfeng smiled coldly.

"The nobleman is wise!" The man hunched over and slapped the ass again.

"Did you find someone?" Li Wanfeng interrupted unceremoniously, if it was on weekdays, she would have taken it on weekdays, but her father had disappeared for no reason recently, and if it weren't for this, she wouldn't have gone to find Jiang Shaoqing.

"The minion has already sent the best spies to find out the news of Li Gong, but ......" The man's voice became weaker and weaker.

"Rubbish! Don't go check it out yet! Li Wanfeng casually threw a cup, which is her strong point for smashing dishes and bowls.

"Yes, yes, the minion will go." The man crawled away, leaving only Li Wanfeng, who was alone and angry.

Li Wanfeng is as good at using human nature as Li Mingtao but is arrogant and conceited, she thinks that if she provokes Tao Ying, she can be unconscious, and at this moment Tao Ying is looking at the things on the table and frowning.

"Which young lady is the new concubine in the palace?" Tao Ying looked at the things on the table and asked the girl beside her.

That girl is not her person, but fortunately she is a newcomer and has a pure nature, not like those who fall into the well.

"Niangniang, the slave maid heard the girl in the laundry room say that she is a beauty, but she is not from Beigao, it seems that the emperor brought it back from outside the palace, and when she came back, she directly gave Taoyuan Ju, sealed the peach concubine, and once stayed in Taoyuan for three days, and she was very favored and in the limelight!" The girl didn't think much about it, she also knew that the master she was serving was once a master of infinite beauty, and now at this point - just as a subordinate, it is a good thing to think more for the master.

"Taoyuanju! Peach Princess?! Tao Ying was not calm all of a sudden.

Her yard is secluded, there is no one to go with, there is no information on weekdays, and the Tao family will naturally not come to the outside news if it is not in the past, so even if there is a Tao Tuo in the army, it will not be down. But now she is just living with her former belongings, and she is worry-free. It's just that early this morning, a rare guest came to her uninhabited cold palace.

Tao Ying didn't know this new concubine, but since the Tao family, she had gotten to that man, thinking that she was a heartless person, why should she be so affectionate, but the connection was not broken, and a few words teased her rippling heart.

The eunuch claimed to have sealed the order of the imperial concubine to reward these sisters in the palace, a box of gold, silver and jewelry was placed in front of her, but she singled out the most inferior hairpin to her, Tao Ying was full of indignation, this was simply a naked provocation. What's more, the eunuch also said that this hairpin was given to her to make her know and not to charm the monarch again.

Tao Ying never thought that she would one day be insulted like this by a subordinate, she endured it, she needed a matter, something that could make her turn over, and this thing seemed to be the best opportunity.

"Mother?" The little girl looked at her master, and people said that this master's temperament was uncertain, and it was difficult to serve, but she felt that it was not bad, although she didn't like to talk, she never did any injustice to her.

"Fei'er, this hairpin will be given to you." Tao Ying smiled rarely.

"Niangniang, this is a gift from Concubine Tao, this ......" The girl was a little happy and a little disbelieving.

"This palace knows, since you like it, take it." Tao Ying said disappreciatively.

"Xie Niangniang, Xie Niangniang!" Fei'er carefully picked up the hairpin and happily put it in the palm of her hand, this was the first time that the master had given her something, and it was still such a beautiful thing.

"Fei'er, this palace needs you to do something, are you willing?" Tao Ying then asked, but her eyes didn't look at her.

"The slave listens to the mother's orders." Fei'er tilted her head curiously and knelt down gently.

"This palace knows that you have a good relationship with the sisters in the laundry room, you just need to tell them that the new peach concubine can't give birth and has a stubborn illness, so that's it." Tao Ying looked down at her.

"Niangniang, this-" Fei'er obviously didn't expect her master to let herself do such a thing, not to mention that she couldn't do it, she didn't dare.

"This palace did not fabricate the facts, what this palace said is true, if you want this palace to get out of this cold palace, just do it." Tao Ying learned the most in her time here, patience, she knows Fei'er's temperament, and it is this temperament that makes what she says more convincing.

"Mother, the slave can't do it!" Fei'er was about to cry, she really didn't know how to do it.

"You can do it! Fei'er, the palace wall you see is not like that, you see that it is the new peach concubine who is kind to give a gift, in fact, she is just a solicitation or a warning. Like those powerful and favored women, she will give valuable treasures, and if she is so downtrodden as the palace, she will bully others. If I don't have a preconceived idea today, then the other day will be the day of the death of our master and servant! Tao Ying kindly persuaded her girl.

If it had been in the past, this girl would have been dragged out to fight if she was disobedient, but now she knows better who can and can't believe it.

Just like that Jiang Shaoqing, it is clearly everything she planned, she is just a pawn in her hands, and she is the poisonous snake behind the scenes. However, she is the one who gains power or profit, and she ends up in this fate, even so, she can no longer shake the woman who was once just a small promise.

"Mother-slave do your best." Fei'er thought about it for a long time, and after listening to Tao Ying's words, the hairpin in her hand turned into a hot potato, and she couldn't keep it.

"Fei'er, if this happens, this palace will not treat you badly." Tao Ying thought that it would take a lot of effort to convince this girl, but she didn't expect it to be just a few words.

"Mother, slaves don't want money. If the slave maid has no chance to serve the mother in the future, the mother remembers that when the moon comes, do not drink cold water, do not come out in thin clothes when you get up at night, do not eat or drink for the waist, do not hurt your body alone, do not get drunk alone, and do not sleep...... Mother, the slave is gone. You – take care! Fei'er kowtowed to Tao Ying three times, then stood up firmly and turned away.

When Tao Ying heard this, the corner of her heart seemed to be hit by something, she has been educated by the eldest lady since she was a child, learning how to be a concubine, how to be a queen, and how to survive in this deceit. But there have never been these days, and one person has to treat each other sincerely and take care of her, just for her everywhere, not for gold and silver, not for power.

"Fei'erβ€”" Tao Ying couldn't help but begin, she didn't know why she wanted to keep it, she hoped that such days would go on like this at that moment.

"Niangniang, people say that Niangniang is a master who is not good to serve, Fei'er thought that Niangniang had three heads and six arms or was strict and not smiling, but she didn't expect that the first time she saw Niangniang, she was like a woman who went down to earth, Fei'er only thought that Niangniang could be good. Niangniang, the smile is really beautiful, Niangniang has Fei'er by your side, you are not alone. Take care! Fei'er turned around before crossing the door, and after speaking earnestly, she left without looking back.

In Fei'er's heart, this time, he may no longer see this master who has been dependent on each other for half a year, and maybe it is still the separation between heaven and man. However, as long as the master is good, it is good!

Tao Ying was alone in the house, and she didn't know what it was like in her heart, but she suddenly understood that the girl who could stay by her side for her master, she was jealous of Tao Yao'er, why could she have such a subordinate by her side and die for her. Whether it's Bixi or Jasper, which of them didn't die for Tao Yao'er?

Now, she really understands something. Perhaps, between them, it is not a master-servant relationship at all, just like she doesn't seem to treat the silly girl named Fei'er as a subordinate from this moment on. It's just, is all this still in a hurry?

Fei'er really lives up to her trust, in the eyes of everyone, this girl is simple-minded, tenacious and doesn't know how to play tricks, such a person has a high credibility when she speaks. When they asked Fei'er how she found out, Fei'er was so confused and didn't know what to do, which made them believe the news even more. And this news, as Tao Ying expected, spread throughout this forbidden birdcage palace within a day.

"Niangniang, you still have the heart to paint here, it's spread all over the outside!" Biyun went back to Taoyuanju with a burning fire, but saw Tao Xiaoxiao sitting there drawing round and long things that she couldn't understand at all.

"This is a baby!" Tao Yaoyao glanced at her, hum, I don't know the goods!

"Baby?" Biyun suddenly forgot to rush back to do something, and looked at those pictures curiously, it didn't look like a jewel, how could it be a treasure?

"yes, it's a super baby!" Tao Yaoyao put away the pen, and I have used it for several days for this thing, although I have used it briefly in Nansu, but those are too anxious.

"Super big baby?" Biyun looked at her with some suspicion? Isn't it that the master's head has not been cured yet? Thinking about it, she really reached out and touched Taoyao's forehead.

Tao Yaoyao saw her action, and she couldn't explain it, such a "profound" knowledge of chemistry, even if they studied in high school, but they still said angrily: "What has spread all over the world?" ”

"That's right! My memory! Biyun patted his forehead violently, and hurriedly said: "Everything in the palace has been spread all over, saying that Niangniang has broken off childbirth, and she can't have children in this life!" ”

"Huh?" Tao Xiaoxiao only frowned slightly, then relaxed her face and looked at the pictures with satisfaction.

"Mother, when is this? If the Ministry of Internal Affairs determines that the mother cannot give birth, according to the rules of the palace, it must be incorporated into the partial palace, and the title of concubine shall not be awarded! Biyun said anxiously.

"Oh." Tao Xiaoyao still doesn't care.

"!" Biyun was a little angry, isn't this the emperor not in a hurry and the eunuch in a hurry!

"Don't worry, with this, don't talk about the Internal Affairs Office, even the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty have to be tightly blocked!" Tao Yaoyao said coldly.

Since someone wants to deal with her, of course she has to give them a chance. It's just that don't regret it when the time comes!
