Saying that, Concubine Li got up, and the sharp-eyed little palace maid who was waiting on the side immediately went up and carefully supported Concubine Li's hand painted with red cardamom, Concubine Li unfolded a swaggering smile, but unfortunately the makeup on her face was too heavy, and it looked a little hideous, she glanced at Jiang Xinyu, turned around and left at random, leaving only one sentence: "We are all looking forward to the grand occasion of my sister's Hundred Flowers Banquet, but million," sneered and continued: "Don't mess it up." ”

"Sister go slowly, sister will definitely live up to expectations!" Jiang Xinyu is not a vegetarian, so she immediately choked back.

Originally, Jiang Xinyu had been staying in this dire palace with the mentality of "if you come, you will be safe", but Concubine Li was too pampered, so she must have colluded with the other two concubines to throw such a tricky thing as the Hundred Flowers Banquet to herself as a fledgling new concubine, which already means Sima Zhao's heart - everyone knows it. Thinking of this, the book in his hand seemed to have lost the fun it should have, and he didn't have the heart to read it anymore, so he had to put the book aside lightly and rubbed his temples with a headache.

Xiao Rou, who was standing next to her and waiting, saw that her young lady was so troubled, so she leaned over and changed Jiang Xinyu's hand to massage her head, and finally couldn't help but ask with concern: "Miss, are you okay?" ”

Jiang Xinyu closed her eyes and enjoyed it, and she didn't want this pure little girl to worry about herself, so she looked up and smiled at her: "It's okay, I'm just a little hesitant to think about the Hundred Flowers Banquet." ”

"Oh," Xiao Rou nodded thoughtfully, "Did the young lady think of anything?" In my opinion, this is not a bad thing, it is a good time for you to gain a firm foothold in the palace, young lady! "What kind of character is that young lady of her family, there are so many careful thoughts every day, what is the Hundred Flowers Banquet! - Xiaorou has never supported her own young lady in principle.

Jiang Xinyu's slender fingers tapped rhythmically on the table, and Bei Ya subconsciously bit her lower lip, her lips were very beautifully red. I thought about it a lot, and I still had to think about these things, and I would inevitably capsize in the gutter.

Xiao Rou's words reminded Jiang Xinyu in some ways, she really lacks such an opportunity, and she can also kill two birds with one stone, and the sharpness of Concubine Li and others, I think Concubine Li will be willing to give this opportunity to herself, it must be expected that a little Jiang Xinyu will not roll in the big river of the palace, and it is expected that she Jiang Xinyu has no connections to use as a pawn for the Hundred Flowers Banquet - heh, I want you to see the things that she Jiang Xinyu has learned in her two lives, It's enough to deal with your inadequately skilled vixen!

"It's a pity that I didn't use the sharp blade that Concubine Li gave me with her own hands, didn't she expect that I would have no one to use here? I'd rather show her how bold I am to win a whole hand with a single card. Xiaorou, you say, what are the characters in this palace? Jiang Xinyu said, her beautiful eyes revealing a hint of cunning in her victory, very childish.

Xiaorou also understood it at one point, and said in surprise: "Miss, what you said is the emperor?" ”

Jiang Xinyu hooked her lips and replied with a smile: "That's right, it's Nangong Tian!" "Yes, now as follows, the person who can easily mobilize the connections of the entire palace is naturally only him, the one who reigns over the world. Jiang Xinyu thought about it for a while, and ordered loudly: "Xiaorou, you go to the small kitchen and send someone to make a bowl of ginseng soup, and then find someone to ask the emperor which palace he is in at this time, and go back quickly." ”

Xiao Rou blessed, bowed her head and retreated meekly.

Within a quarter of an hour, Xiao Rou came back with a delicate food basket, and said softly: "It is said that the emperor is in the imperial study at this time, and he has been busy for a long time." ”

"That's right, let's go to the imperial study to rest with the emperor for a while, Xiaorou, come, dress up for me." Is she going to amaze Nangong Tian.

On weekdays, Jiang Xinyu is too lazy to dress up, but now it is different from the past, and now the situation is that she has a request for Nangong Tian, if she sees her bright appearance, it will be much easier to talk. Nangong Tiantian gave a "snow" word when he gave the position, which was more suitable for Jiang Xinyu, a pure white snow woven gauze skirt, the lips were red, and the black silk poured like a waterfall, it was really like the heavenly snow girl on the peak of the snow mountain, beautiful and arrogant and cold. So he called a few maids to follow, and the group went straight to the imperial study. Get the attention of others.

And in the imperial study, Nangong Tian's eyelids suddenly jumped, and he didn't know if he was too tired to review the chapter or what, there was always an ominous premonition. At this moment, the sonorous voice of the personal guard came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, Concubine Xue is asking to see you outside the palace!" Use no subordinates ......"

Nangong Tian raised his eyebrows - sure enough, what should come will still come, and he cleared his throat: "It's okay, let her in." As soon as the voice fell, Jiang Xinyu pushed the door in, and without waiting for Nangong Tianci Seat, he found a comfortable position to sit down. It's Nangong Tian, Jiang Xinyu is too gorgeous today, and there is a bit of a hot taste along the way, her cheeks are slightly red, and she looks a little beautiful and delicious. He looked at it for a while and was about to withdraw his eyes, just in time to see Jiang Xinyu's clear and cunning eyes staring straight at him, as if he was staring at some prey that was bound to be won.

"Concubine Ai really has a unique charm today." Nangong Tian smiled and teased, his gaze had already fallen back to the music. "Does the emperor like it?" Jiang Xinyu was not to be outdone and fought back head-on.

Nangong Tian's brush was frightened by Jiang Xinyu's smiling tone - hey, it's a pity for Xu Aiqing's performance!

"Presumably, Concubine Ai came to me today for something important? Let me guess, isn't it, the Hundred Flowers Banquet? ”

"Your Majesty, you are really smart, I heard Sister Concubine Li say that this Hundred Flowers Banquet is an annual event in the palace, and the concubine is just a new concubine, and she intended to follow Sister Concubine Li to join in the fun.

Whether it is on the open side or the dark side, these words clearly stated that they were not interested in the Hundred Flowers Banquet, which was originally somewhat willful, but after Jiang Xinyu's tone, it actually had a bit of a little lover's coquettish taste. Nangong Tian smiled: "Yes, Concubine Li mentioned this matter to me by chance, and I was really curious about your performance, so I should go down, why, don't you want to?" ”

"How dare the emperor's concubines and concubines? It's just that ...... "Jiang Xinyu put on a pitiful look" It's just that the concubines are soft-spoken, this Hundred Flowers Banquet is very important, and it is related to the relationship between the monarch and the ministers of the entire court, it is too grand, and it involves too many places that need to be moved, the concubine is the new concubine, I am afraid that I can't call those people, what if things are messed up! At that time, the concubines are afraid of disappointing the emperor and his sisters! ”

"You are my woman, who dares to say that you are small? If you think of anything, just do it, I will tell you to go down, and the three palaces and six courts will listen to your arrangement. In this way, Jiang Xinyu knocked on the side, and without saying half a word of request, he also got Nangong Tian's dictation, which saved Jiang Xinyu a lot of trouble, at least, he didn't have to owe Nangong Tian a favor, right?

Jiang Xinyu's happiness was all written on his face, and when he smiled like a flower, he said: "Thank you for the emperor's love, the concubines should do their best to live up to the emperor's love," and seemed to suddenly remember something: "When I came over, I listened to the servant who said that the emperor had been reviewing the chapter for a long time, and the concubine specially instructed the small kitchen to prepare ginseng soup for the emperor, do you want to drink some?" ”

The small kitchen in Jiang Xinyu's palace has always tasted very good, Nangong Tian was a little hungry, so he naturally allowed Jiang Xinyu, Jiang Xinyu called Xiaorou in, opened the snack box and personally picked up the ginseng soup and handed it to Nangong Tian.

Nangong Tian took the ginseng soup and tasted it lightly, the craftsmanship was indeed good, the taste was moderate, and it made people appetize. Jiang Xinyu has been staying in the imperial study and chatting with Nangong Tian, until Nangong Tian asked her to go back to the palace to rest, she packed up the snack box and withdrew from the imperial study, and when she walked out of the door of the imperial study,

It was getting late, and Xiao Rou, who had been waiting outside, saw her young lady come out and hurriedly greeted her, and asked, "Miss, how are things going?" Although it can be seen from Jiang Xinyu's expression that everything is going well, I still want to hear it from Jiang Xinyu's mouth, and it seems that this is the only way to feel at ease. Jiang Xinyu pinched Xiaorou's cheeks, which were soft and felt very good, and said with a smile: "Of course!" Don't look at who your young lady is! Let's go back to the palace and celebrate! ”

On both sides of the palace road, the little eunuch and the little palace maid lit the red lanterns on the side of the road in turn, like a long red dragon running through the entire palace. The flowers of the flower bush have already quietly closed their petals as night falls, and only the water lily flowers quietly open and exude fragrance. There was a peaceful anger in the palace. Although in modern times, I have also been busy to see the Forbidden City, but after all, it is a cultural relic, not a residence, naturally there are less people, at that time I only felt that it was majestic and wonderful, unattainable, compared to this, this palace of Nangong Tian is much closer. Jiang Xinyu was walking and looking on the road, only to see a familiar figure gradually approaching in the distant lights, Jiang Xinyu was in a trance for a while, and he didn't even remember who it was, until the two gradually got closer, the figure was tall and indifferent, who was not Nan Minghui? Jiang Xinyu's pace couldn't help but slow down, but Xiao Rou didn't notice the person coming, and asked, "Miss, why are you ......" Before she finished speaking, she saw Nan Minghui, and immediately silenced herself and retreated behind Jiang Xinyu. Jiang Xinyu came back to his senses and quickly recovered his former demeanor, and Nan Minghui did not squint, and the two passed by like this, but the distance between them made people feel too far away to touch, which is probably what literati often say "the end of the world".

The palace city is full of lights, and this night seems destined to be long.
