"Master, which dress do you want to wear for today's dinner" Early in the morning, Dai Man opened it for her excitedly.

Su Jingxi was also infected by them, and she was in a very good mood, "Today's Laba, let's make some Laba porridge in the kitchen, let's eat it ourselves, by the way, everyone's monthly money has doubled this month." ”

"Slaves and slaves thank their masters for rewarding," everyone was beaming.

"Clothes and jewelry look ready, don't be rude."

"Master, let's use some bird's nest," Tingyao walked in with a tray.

Su Jingxi chuckled, "It's not Huang Yan this time."

A few days ago, Zong Zhengjin didn't know what the wind was suddenly, and sent someone to send her a lot of top-grade blood swallows, and the number was so large that she was afraid that she could eat it for a year or two.

"The master is only afraid that he will never have to eat Huang Yan again," Ting Yao also laughed, "The emperor loves the master, which is the master's blessing." ”

"Yes, it's the blessing of this concubine," Su Jingxi muttered.

Taihe Temple

Su Jingxi stepped on the click, in fact, it was not late, but everyone else took their seats, in comparison, it seemed that Su Jingxi was a little late, and as soon as she entered, she attracted almost everyone's attention.

In fact, it's no wonder that she has not been able to do this during this time, except for staying in Chonghua Palace, Zong Zhengjin has only been drunk in Yunwu, but he has never stepped into the other palaces.

Everyone is inevitably jealous, and they can't afford to offend Concubine Shu, so naturally the spearhead can only be pointed at Su Jingxi.

"Yo, Sister Zhen came really early," Concubine Shu has always liked to find faults, and said after Su Jingxi finished her salute.

Su Jingxi got up slowly, "My sister is indeed not as early as the sisters, and when the emperor and queen come, my sister will be guilty." ”

The time of the banquet is all set, Su Jingxi just didn't want to come too early, and then she could only sit here and fight with this group of women.

The meaning of these words is to imply that Concubine Shu is arrogant, and if Su Jingxi is really guilty, it will also be judged and punished by the emperor or queen, but it has nothing to do with her concubine.

Concubine Shu naturally heard the meaning of her words, and snorted coldly, "Sister Zhen is really different after she is favored, this mouth is becoming more and more clever, so that the palace can't answer." ”

Concubine Shu is really a concubine, she is worthy of being immersed in the harem for many years, no wonder many people still dare not touch Concubine Shu's moldy head even if they are favored, otherwise this mouth alone can make her drink a pot.

This sentence is clearly sarcastic for Su Jingxi's pampering and arrogance, and she doesn't understand the rules.

But Su Jingxi really dared to "disrespect" her, and it was only right that the courtesy was exchanged, "What Sister Shufei said is that my sister has been in Zuiyunwu for a long time, and her mouth is indeed powerful. ”

Concubine Shu was stunned by what she said, and she felt powerless when she punched the cotton, and was about to speak again, but the voice of the eunuch came from outside, "The emperor has arrived, the queen has arrived, and Concubine Shu has arrived." ”

"Concubines, concubines, concubines, concubines, concubines,

Zong Zhengjin walked to the top and waved his hand, "Flatten, just sit down." ”

Su Jingxi sat down in her place, glanced at the top, and was startled, although the queen was still dressed luxuriously and gracefully, but that face, even if she was covered with thick fat powder, she could still see the haggard and tiredness underneath, and she seemed to be more than ten years old after not seeing it for a few days.

Especially those eyes, cloudy and unclear, decadent and lifeless, as if they had seen through the heat and coldness of the world, and there was no longer the sense of confidence and flamboyance that they had in the past.

Not only Su Jingxi, but everyone else was obviously aware of it, and they couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, they all bowed their heads respectfully, and they didn't dare to say more, for fear of attracting the anger of that person.

For a moment, there was some silence in the hall.

"Today is Laba Festival, it is rare to have such a day of blessing in a year, the palace ordered the imperial dining room to prepare Laba porridge, and the sisters will have to eat more later," Shu Guifei said with a smile as if she hadn't noticed anything abnormal, "The queen also eats more, and my sister has specially prepared some according to the taste of the mother." ”

In the past, such words were said by the queen, but now it is Shu Guifei's assistant to the sixth palace, in fact, many people in the harem have already switched to Shu Guifei, obviously Shu Guifei's limelight has long overshadowed the queen.

Feng Shui takes turns, and this sentence can also be reflected in the queen's body.

"This palace will appreciate the face," the queen smiled faintly, but it was not natural in the end.

The eunuch palace maid presented Laba porridge, no matter what other people thought in their hearts, it was really "appreciating the face" and eating more, after all, it was a good sign.

Su Jingxi already loves these sweets, and the various colors of laba porridge filled with lotus silver pattern Gu are even more transparent and colorful, making people have an appetite when they look at it, and when they heard Yao signal that she was okay, she was very relieved to see the bottom of a bowl at a visible speed.

"Give this Gu to Concubine Zhen," Zong Zhengjin tasted a few bites, then put down the spoon, looked up and saw that she was using it very fragrantly, hooked the corners of her mouth, and said to Su Shunxian.

Although the words were said to Su Shunxian, the voice was not small, and the people around heard it, and they all had a meal in their hands when they heard the words, even if it was a delicious Laba porridge, it was quite tasteless at the moment.

"The concubine thanked the emperor," Su Jingxi ignored the resentful and jealous eyes of the people around her, and got up to salute.

This kind of banquet is just a formality, everyone has eaten some stomach cushions in advance, after all, it is impossible to really feast on such an occasion, indecent actions are absolutely impossible in front of the emperor, so everyone only used a few sips to listen to it.

There is no one like Su Jingxi, but fortunately, Zong Zhengjin has long been used to it and is very happy to see it.

Everyone is still as usual, actively looking for various ways to attract the emperor's attention, but unfortunately Zong Zhengjin doesn't seem to be in high spirits tonight, and he doesn't cooperate much, and everyone returns in defeat.

In addition, the queen has been sitting quietly on the side, not saying much, as if she was just a spectator, the queen's faction is inevitably a little uneasy and a little depressed, and under the two, the atmosphere is quite embarrassing.

Zong Zhengjin was also not interested in enlivening the atmosphere, so he left early under the pretext of seeing this.

As soon as the emperor left, everyone was unwilling to stay longer, and the banquet soon dispersed.

Drunken Cloud Dock

"Master, the slave looks a little weird tonight," Ting Yao waited for Su Jingxi to freshen up, and said.

Su Jingxi smiled, "What's weird?"

"It seems that no one is-for-tat, and the slave is a little unaccustomed to it," Ting Yao smiled unnaturally.

Su Jingxi sighed, "It's Halloween in a few days, probably they all put their minds on that day." ”

Hallolive Day is the emperor's birthday.

"Has the master thought about what to send to the emperor" Hearing Yao deliberately asked, she knew that her master had been making clothes for a few days before, but two of them had already been scrapped, and she was not sure that she would definitely send clothes.

Su Jingxi smiled bitterly, she did plan to make a dress for him from the beginning, the gift was light and affectionate, but after seeing his clothes, no matter how expensive the material was, the fine and tight stitches alone made her ashamed.

Even if she is a good woman, she can't be compared with the people of the Shangfu Bureau and the Shanggong Bureau, where the best embroiderers in the world are gathered, and every year there is a fresh vitality injection of novices, and the number of patterns there is exquisite is also incomparable to other places.

For example, Zong Zhengjin's socks, 365 days a year, one pair a day, without worn, not to mention occasional rain and other circumstances, change one more pair, his socks are made of the smoothest plain satin, and there are almost no traces of stitches sewn on them.

In contrast, she was a little overwhelmed by her craft.

"Master, you should also have a snack for the emperor, the emperor is so good to you, the master has to cherish it," Ting Yao sincerely persuaded him.

In fact, she can't figure out what kind of mentality her master has for the emperor, or what kind of feelings she has, and now she mentions it now, but she is afraid that she will be fascinated by the authorities, and she will fall into it for a while and suffer a loss.

"Listen Yao, you have a heart," Su Jingxi's tone was sincere, and she could see that she was genuinely good for her.

Su Jingxi's feelings about him, she has never dared to think about it, she has never dared to be deep, she is afraid of a big dream, she has always said this to herself.

Perhaps, she really should think about it.

Kunning Palace

"Niangniang, use more," Jin Mo advised, his own mother hardly used any food these days, and she couldn't sleep peacefully at night, and she was haunted by nightmares from time to time.

The queen waved her hand, "I can't eat it in this palace, so take it down." ”

Jin Mo sighed, walked over and knelt on the ground, "Niangniang, the old slave has the courage to beg Niangniang to think more about her own body, Niangniang has lost a lot of weight these days, and the old slave is really distressed to look at." ”

"Even if Niangniang doesn't think about her own body, then there is still the eldest princess, the eldest duke is mainly without the love of the mother, how to get a foothold in this harem, how to get a foothold in this harem, forget the hard work of pregnancy in October, forget the time when the eldest princess called you a queen mother?"

Jin Mo saw that the queen still had no spirit and no hope, so he had to take the eldest princess to consol, even if the queen was looking forward to giving birth to a son, the eldest princess was conceived as a prince, and she was disappointed and disappointed when she was born, but as a mother, no matter what, it was her own child.

When the eldest princess was sick, Niangniang also personally waited by the eldest princess's side, personally fed the medicine, took care of it, and took pity on the parents of the world, saying that she didn't love or dislike, but at a critical juncture, the bloodline was still the most powerful.

Jin Mo made a look, and Huizhu hurriedly let the eldest princess in.

"Queen Mother, son-in-law please greet the Queen Mother," Zong Zhengya walked in and saluted, even though she was only seven years old, she was not bad at all in learning the rules.

The queen only glanced at her, did not reach out to help, and faintly, "Get up." ”
