Chapter 16: Volt

When they returned to Zhuyun Tower, Fang Gu and Bilan had been waiting for a long time. Nu'er walked into the inner room with a gloomy face, she carefully put away the plum bone umbrella, and sat straight on the Luohan Collapse.

"Bilan, I'm hungry, go find something to eat." Nu'er said.

Bilan nodded reluctantly and walked out slowly. After sending Bi Lan away, Nu'er sat up straight, she looked at Fang Gu with burning eyes, "Why didn't I see you when I came out of Shoukang Palace?" ”

"The slave waited for a long time, and came back before she saw the girl."

"Really?" Nu'er tilted her head to look at her, "Then you have been waiting outside Shoukang Palace?" Haven't been anywhere else? ”

"Yes." Fang Gu bowed her head and said.

Nu'er smiled and asked again, "Then why do you have the smell of wood sandalwood in the Queen Mother's bedroom?" You not only entered the Shoukang Palace, but also entered the Queen Mother's bedroom. You, met the Queen Mother, didn't you? ”

Fang Gu knelt down with a thud, she fell to the ground, "Please punish the girl." The slave did go in to see what was fresh, and she had no other intention. ”

"If you just go in for a moment, the smell won't be so strong. Unless you stay there for a long time, the Queen Mother's dormitory will not inexplicably have one more person without noticing. Aunt Fang, who are you? If you lie to me when you are young again, I will have to give everything to my mother and give you to her. ”

Fang Gu suddenly looked up at Nu'er, was this really just a teenager? The heart is as fine as a hair, and there are no waves. Unexpectedly, his identity, which had been hidden for many years, was discovered by a child. Aunt Fang buried her head, "The slave maid is the dowry maid of the Queen Mother. The girl's mother was also a slave and grew up. When Mrs. Wei entered the mansion, I followed her. ”

"I guess you're not here to help your mother, you're just here to watch the back house of the General's Mansion and the Li family for the Queen Mother, right?"

"Yes. But people's hearts are made of meat, and Aunt Wei suffers, and I don't feel good in my heart. ”

The slave sneered, "You watched her die, and you refused to save her, so don't say anything about me here." The slave's voice became colder and colder, "If you want to monitor, you can monitor, I am not interested in the affairs of the Li family." Only one place, take a good measure. I believe my aunt is sure of this. ”

The slave suddenly retracted the coldness on her face, she got up and helped Aunt Fang up, "Everyone bullied me for being young and motherless, and my aunt should turn a deaf ear to these words and say nothing." The slave will still respect you as an elder and accept me as an aunt. ”

You can't talk too hard, Fang Gu is a smart person, and it's just a matter of beating. If you really don't know how to accept it when you see it, you won't be a slave. Fang Gu nodded, didn't say anything, waited in the house for a long time, and when Bi Lan, who had changed shifts, arrived, she retired and withdrew.

Until the opening of the Qiongguang banquet, the days of living in the palace were very peaceful. Because he is in the palace, Li Yuzhi wants to maintain a virtuous and virtuous image and a generous image, so on the surface, he is very concerned about the two concubines of Zhu Yunlou, and he sends people to send things every once in a while, but most of the gifts are porcelain bottles that are not useful, which can not be sold for money, but also have to be guarded against bumping into them and causing gossip. However, Li Yuzhi gained a good reputation in the palace because of this.

In the past few days, the slave has more or less heard some things in the palace from the palace maid in Zhu Yunlou. Coupled with Fang Gu's mention, she lost her unfamiliarity with this imperial city.

Now there are five princes and a princess living in the palace, and the princess is naturally Princess Furou who is loved by thousands of people, and the five princes are the younger and unknighted fifth son, sixth son, seventh son, eighth prince, and the crown prince Dongliyi.

Among them, the fifth son of the emperor, Dong Liyun, was born humble, and his biological mother was a palace maid, so he was silent and did not have a sacred heart. There is almost no presence in this imperial city. The sixth son of the emperor, Dongli Mingrui, is quite talented, and both civil and military are quite favored by the emperor. The seventh son of the emperor, Dongli Jing, suffered from eye disease, and since he was a child, he was weak and kept at home, and was taken care of by his biological mother, Concubine Li. The eighth son of the emperor, Dongli Yuma, is masculine and gentle, good at poetry and books, and the palace people all praise him for his gentlemanly style.

Of course, the most important thing to ignore is Prince Dongliyi. He was born as the queen's concubine, with a noble status, and was born as a prince. There are different opinions about his temperament, some say he is soft-hearted and kind-hearted, while others say that he is moody and tyrannical. However, no matter what the rumors are, the emperor has always been tolerant and protective of him. Someone once wrote a proposal to change the crown prince, but this proposal was not only rejected by the saint, but the person who wrote the book was also beaten with 20 boards, demoted three levels in a row, and put in a remote area to become a nine-grade sesame petty official.

Since then, the whole of Great Xia has known about the Holy Lord's preference for the crown prince. Then, as the talents of the six princes, Dongli Mingrui, were increasingly revealed in stark contrast to the inactive crown prince, everyone in the court and the central government considered their positions, after all, the saint was in his prime, and the situation changed in a blink of an eye.

stayed in the palace for a few days, except for Princess Furou, who came to play occasionally, and Dong Liyun, the fifth prince who happened to meet once in Shoukang Palace, and other slaves had never seen it. Seeing that the Qiongguang banquet is approaching and the New Year is approaching, Rao is war is tight, red lanterns and bright yellow bells are still hung inside and outside the imperial city, and the palace lanterns on the roadside have also been replaced by ordinary green lanterns to colorful glazed tile candle lights.

"Fourth girl, Miss Cousin is here." Fang Gu entered the door to report.

As soon as the words fell, there was a burst of laughter like silver bells behind Fang Gu. Li Danchen walked in with a smile, and the palace maid who followed behind him was holding a box in her hand. Presumably the Qiongguang banquet is approaching, Li Yuzhi has to do a good job of superficial work, so she specially sent her niece to send the first face.

"Fourth sister, look, this is the jewelry that your cousin Danchen specially selected for you. Check it out. Li Danchen beckoned to the slave, she opened the wooden boxes one by one, the coral beads were swaying in a row, Qingyun hugged the blessed hairpin, and the green snow contained the hairpin...... The variety of jewelry is dazzling.

"My aunt is the most partial to you. I didn't even pick the jewelry that the Ministry of Internal Affairs just sent to Yinhua, so I asked me to send it over for you to pick first. Saying that, Li Danchen picked one of the golden silk peonies and dotted the cui hairpin, "I see that this hairpin is exquisite in workmanship, and the style is extremely good-looking." Why don't you pick this hairpin out of my sister? ”

Nu'er took the golden hairpin and looked at it carefully, it was indeed a good golden hairpin. She couldn't help but nod and said, "This golden hairpin can be said to be the best of these jewelry." It's just that this kind of golden hairpin can't be brought by a slave. The so-called concubine is different, and the slave is quite self-aware. The slave put the golden hairpin back in its place, and walked on all kinds of jewelry, and at the end, she picked up the green snow hairpin that was different from the intricate and gorgeous inside, "This hairpin is quite my heart, so let it be." Cousin Lao has taken a trip. ”

"My sister has a unique vision." Li Danchen nodded, "Okay, since you chose it." Also, this hairpin is a jewelry sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and it is an object in the palace. Qiong Guangyan still returned it after the banquet, and my sister didn't want to lose it. ”

"Cousin, don't worry, the slave will take care of it." Nu'er blessed slightly, and called out to the door, "Aunt Fang, send your cousin." ”

After Li Danchen left, Nu'er handed the hairpin to Bi Lan and instructed, "Put this and the clothes that my mother gave me together, and bring them out to me for the Qiongguang banquet the day after tomorrow." ”

"Yes." Bilan took the hairpin.

The Qiongguang banquet is finally here.

Nu'er looked at the snowy sky outside the window, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. Lee, I have prepared a big gift for you.
