Here Qinghe wants to find two people to help, and there are people over there who are thinking about being Xie Meiren's helpers.

It was already dark when the royal chariot came, and two rows of lanterns slowly moved forward from the end of the palace road, like a long dragon of lights.

Liu Cairen stood behind the door, looking enviously at the long dragon winding forward, heading in the direction of the Lingering Fragrance Pavilion.

She just couldn't figure it out, where was Xie Meiren better than her? Her luck is really good, among the same people who entered the palace, there were more people who were favored earlier than her, but she was the only one who was pregnant.

But she is pregnant and still dominates the emperor like this! Can she still sleep?

Kitsune! pretended to be indifferent, but he took so much trouble to please her, and gave her all the bracelets he brought from home.

After Xie Meiren became pregnant, Liu Cairen's heart opened.

Xie Meiren is pregnant, so she will definitely not be able to serve the emperor herself, which will take a year from conception to before and after birth. Even if she is pregnant, such a long time is enough for the emperor to love others. Xie Meiren is not in a hurry? If she doesn't want to be forgotten by the emperor, the best way is to bring someone who has a good relationship with her to the emperor. It's good for both of you, not only for the one being promoted, but also for herself. It's better to let someone who has no friendship with her, or even a grudge, take advantage of the situation, right?

There are not many people who are good friends with her, and there are only three or five of them. Liang Meiren is not counted, she was favored early, and she has a bad relationship with other people, not to mention that she is a person who has long been rejected by the emperor. Sun Cainu is only submissive, and she can't speak, so she has nothing to do except a face. The white beauties entered the palace earlier than them, and now they can be regarded as old pearls, and after the season, counting and counting, Liu Cairen feels that he is the most promising.

Waited and waited, but there was no news. Liu Cairen's expectations for Xie Meiren gradually turned into disappointment, and now they have turned into hatred.

She kind of understood, Xie Meiren was too lonely, and she didn't think about who she wanted to bring with her before the emperor.

What did the emperor like about her? She didn't read much, she wasn't the best-looking, and she didn't even do a good job of needlework.

Now I have to add one more thing, this woman is narrow-minded and unkind.

The emperor will one day discover her true face, and she will not be favored for the rest of her life, and she will only be good-looking when the time comes!

The emperor got off the royal chariot, and Xie Ning took Qinghe's hand to welcome him out. She wore a thick cloak of colorful brocade, and the edge of her hood was white and fluffy, and her face looked even more crystal white.

The emperor took her hand into the house: "I told you, it's cold and the road is slippery, don't go to the door." ”

Xie Ning smiled and said, "Fang Shanggong said that the concubines should move around more. You can rest assured, every time I go out, I will be supported by at least two people, and there will be no mistakes. ”

When the emperor entered the house, he saw two hand stoves on the table, one was in the shape of an eight-treasure lotus, very small, about the size of an adult man's fist. The other is pumpkin-shaped, larger than the previous one, with color and paint on the outside, and even the handle is made into a pumpkin vine, and there are two green pumpkin leaves on the top.

The emperor picked it up and looked at it: "This is sent by someone from the craftsman's bureau?" ”

"I sent them in the second half of the day, and I sent a total of four, and I kept these two."

The other two are not bad, on the contrary, those two are too beautiful. One has a ring of gems on it. Even if the color of the gemstone is not top-notch, it always feels uneasy to hold it in your hand, too ostentatious and too extravagant. The other is inlaid with filament, and the words and patterns of Fu Shoulu are inlaid with gold and silver wire, which is beautiful and good-looking, even if you look at it, it looks like it is used by an old lady fifty miles away.

The emperor pointed to the pumpkin and said, "Use this well in the house." The little one is light when it goes out. ”

Xie Ning smiled and said, "The emperor and the concubines want to go together." ”

She thinks the same way, the small ones go out and take them, and the big ones are used in the house. And the pumpkin stove is so chic, although she likes it very much, but if she takes it out and uses it to be seen, she may be laughed at that she doesn't know respect.

It was hot in the house, and the emperor also went to the big clothes outside, looked at the words she wrote today, and tasted the tea that was said to be made in plum blossom snow water.

"The concubine didn't go by herself, Qingmei took the two palace maids to the snow collected on the plum blossoms on the back pavilion, what did the emperor think of drinking?"

The emperor didn't answer, but asked her: "Haven't you drunk it yourself?" What do you think? ”

Xie Ning hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth: "The concubine is a vulgar person, and she really can't taste the beauty of this water." I've heard of it before, and I thought there was a plum blossom aroma in the water, but I smelled it when I boiled the water just now, and I didn't smell the fragrance. Drinking...... I didn't think it was any different from the tea cooked in well water. ”

The emperor looked at her and smiled.

After getting along for some time, he knew that she was very attentive to food, but not so good at drinking tea. She doesn't like the best purple bamboo shoots and clouds, and the most common thing to drink is fragrant tablets, and she has come more often, and the emperor has also been led astray by her.

"The day after tomorrow is the winter solstice, and in previous years, there was always a lively time at this time, but this year there are too many things, just forget it." When the emperor said so, Xie Ning nodded yes.

"Before you entered the palace, how did you spend the winter solstice at home?"

Xie Ning thought for a while: "The concubine didn't stay in her hometown for several years before she entered the palace. I followed my uncle in office for two years, and the habits in the southwest were different from those in the north, the cook was a local, and we were not used to cooking at first. Especially on the day of the winter solstice, I got up early in the morning and waited for the dumplings, and the result was sweet wine gnocchi and flower cake, sprinkled with a lot of fried sesame seeds and rose silk, the first time I ate it, it felt fresh, sweet and delicious. But after all, I'm still not used to it, and I always feel that if I don't eat dumplings, I won't be counted in winter. ”

The emperor listened very seriously: "What happened later? ”

"Later, my aunt asked her to cut the meat and buy vegetables, and she cooked the dumplings herself, and I gave her a hand."

"There is also a year of winter solstice in the mountains, because of the snow, trapped in the temple can not go back to the city for a while, the temple life is hard, usually always eat mixed noodle soup and vegetable porridge, the day of the winter solstice actually has dumplings, is vegetarian stuffing, mushrooms, cabbage and tofu, although there is no meat and no meat oil, but it also feels fragrant, my uncle laughed at me because I stayed in the temple for half a month without seeing the smell of meat, people became more greedy."

The emperor has long known Xie Ning's life experience, she lost her father when she was young, and she has lived with her mother in her uncle's house more often since she was a child.

Knowing is knowing, after all, there is not much feeling. But now when I hear her describe her past life, her uncle and aunt appear most in her words, but the Xie family rarely appears in her words, which shows that the relationship with the Xie family is very distant and indifferent.
