It was already dark when I came out of Cining Palace. Xiao Zhuang Fei took Chun Xi and played a game of chess with her after dinner, and then he was willing to let her go.

I wanted to go to the Qianqing Palace to find Xuanye, but I heard Mu Hui say that he had already announced that An Guiren was going to bed. suddenly lost interest and returned to Yikun Palace in a gray manner.

As soon as I sat down for a while, I saw Shu Sleeve come to say: "Little master, two days ago, Concubine Tong invited a Han girl from outside, saying that she was a strange woman. Not only does he look like a fairy, but he also plays a good hand of chess. ”

Shu Sleeve didn't know what to do, so he deliberately told her. Chun Xi didn't waste her words in vain, and she looked surprised, and asked, "What is the origin of this Han girl?" ”

"I don't know where Concubine Tong invited her, it's been spread all over the palace in the past two days. Some people also say that the little master's sole favor is coming to an end. Fu'er, who was standing on the side, was angry, the little master was no longer in the palace for a few days, and there were people who coveted the little master's favor.

"Don't listen to them chewing their tongues, I'll go to meet this fairy tomorrow morning." Chunxi's face was full of disdain, and in Shu Sleeve's opinion, it was the same as her usual life. Shu Sleeve is always so confident in his eyes, except for the emperor's favor, the rest is not in his eyes. A year ago, when the Queen Mother said to the emperor that she wanted to be a nobleman, the emperor also intended to promote her as a concubine, but she refused.

"Little master, I heard that Miss Han did not live in the palace, Concubine Tong personally asked Concubine Wan for a token to enter and leave the palace, and allowed her to enter the palace every day before the time and leave the palace before the hour." Fu'er explained again.

"Then I'll go back then." Chun Xi was secretly happy in her heart, it seemed that Han Ji had entered the palace and had broken the peace of the harem in just two days. Presumably Concubine Tong is also very satisfied, and she will add another fire tomorrow, and it will be easier for Han Ji to gain Concubine Tong's trust.

Thinking about it like this, I was even more happy, and I had long forgotten that I was still unhappy about sleeping for An Guiren before entering the door. However, due to the presence of Shu sleeves, it cannot be performed. Since she suspected that Shu Sleeve was Concubine Tong's person, she was much more cautious in front of Shu Sleeve. Although she was still kept in the Yikun Palace and let her continue to serve in the palace, most of the things close to her were done by Mu Hui and Fu'er. Yikun Palace also knew Mu Hui's status in her heart, and listening to Mu Hui's words was more than Shu Sleeve, who was the aunt in charge.

Not only was he wary of Shu Sleeve, but sometimes he deliberately said something in front of her, so that she could reach Concubine Tong's ears. This year, it has not been punctured.

When the time came, Chun Xi dressed up properly, and chose the most luxurious of the rewards she had received. Since it is to demonstrate in the eyes of others, it is inevitable to make a show and take the best.

Out of Yikun Palace, Chunxi did not go directly to Chengqian Palace, but went to Qianqing Palace.

"Little master, what are you doing in the Qianqing Palace?" Mu Hui was stunned by her, didn't she say that she was going to Chengqian Palace to help Miss Han, why did she want to go to Qianqing Palace now.

"To make a play, of course, you have to do a full set. Besides, Concubine Tong's ultimate goal is to dedicate her sister to the emperor at the birthday banquet of her ancestors. I can't guarantee that my sister's stunning beauty will make the emperor fall in love for a while. If the emperor really takes a fancy to my sister at that time, won't he block me and make trouble for my sister? Chunxi explained, she already had a plan in mind. Otherwise, how dare she enter the palace?

"The little lord wants to give the emperor a wake-up call first?" Mu Hui listened as if she understood or not, and made bold guesses.

"What men like most is not only a woman's talent and looks, but also that hazy curiosity. A beauty like my sister is more appreciative, and I feel that I can't afford it, and most people can only choose to watch it from a distance. The emperor is different, even if he is not really attracted to this woman, in full view of everyone, for the sake of his supreme imperial power, he will definitely include such a person in the harem. "Actually, Concubine Tong's plan is perfect, there is still a month before that day comes, and she let Han Ji enter the palace so early, also to let Xuan Ye know that there is such a person. If Xuan Ye couldn't resist his curiosity and summoned Han Ji, then Han Ji would inevitably be included in the harem, and then it would not be a situation where Chun Xi was the sole favorite. Even if Xuan Ye didn't summon her, when Han Ji was brought to everyone at the birthday banquet, Xuan Ye had to keep her by his side.

"What about the little master?" After listening to her words, Mu Hui couldn't help but become worried.

"Tell me the truth." Chun Xi gave her a smile and signaled that she was reassured.

But Mu Hui was still apprehensive, and it wasn't until she heard the conversation between Xuan Ye and Xuan Xi with her own ears that she understood why the little master was so sure.

Seeing Chunxi's figure, Xuan Ye immediately put down all the government affairs in his hands. Pull her aside and sit down.

"Did you encounter anything along the way?" Xuan Ye's culture is not surprising, presumably Cao Ziqing has told the truth where she went.

"Actually, Chun'er went out of the palace this time, in addition to going to Dajue Temple, she also went to a place." Chun Xi confessed honestly: "Does the third brother know about Guixian Building? ”

"I heard about it." Xuan Ye nodded.

"Since the third brother knows, then I should also remember what the ancestor asked me to do, right?"

"Hmm. Didn't you hear that the owner of Guixian Building is a chess master, and I want you to invite it yourself? You and I were seriously injured at that time. ”

"In fact, before the third brother fell into a coma, someone came to the rescue, and those people were sent by the owner of Guixian Building. And the last time, when we went out of the palace to investigate the case, when we encountered danger, it was also her person. Chun Xi told Xuan Ye everything about himself and Han Ji. From their first acquaintance to their swearing, and then to the grace of saving lives twice.

Xuan Ye was also moved after hearing this, and he didn't expect that two girls who didn't know each other at all hit it off at first sight, and they also gained such a sisterhood.

"I also thought that I hadn't seen her for a long time, so I took advantage of the time I went to Dajue Temple to meet her. I didn't know that she actually said that Concubine Tong wanted to invite her to the palace to teach chess, but Chun'er thought that Concubine Tong didn't know her relationship with me, and she didn't know what to do. Just let her do what she wants. ”

After Chunxi finished speaking, Xuan Ye also understood: "No wonder there have been rumors in the palace in the past two days, saying that Concubine Tong invited a teacher outside the palace, and she is as beautiful as a fairy." It turned out to be her. ”

"Third brother, my sister is much more beautiful than me. The rumors in this palace are true, she is really a fairy daughter who came out of the painting. The third brother will definitely be moved when he sees it. "Temptation.

Xuan Ye also heard her little caution, scratched the tip of her nose and promised: "In my eyes, only Chun'er is the most beautiful fairy daughter in the world." What's more, such a talented and good-looking woman is famous outside, where can she stand the constraints of the palace. I've never liked to force people. What's more, that person is still my life-saving benefactor, twice. ”

"Really?" Chun Xi was happy in his heart.

"I have a word, do you want to make a note for you?" Xuan Ye naturally knew what she was worried about, and it was enough to have her.

"Not really." Chun Xi smiled: "It's better to try it now." After speaking, he pulled Xuan Ye and walked out. I didn't forget to remind her: "Concubine Tong doesn't know that she is my sister, don't say anything about it, when the time comes, Concubine Tong should be careful." ”

Xuan Ye nodded again and again, repeatedly promising that he would pretend not to know anything.

In the Chengqian Palace, Han Ji is teaching Concubine Tong to play chess. Concubine Tong originally knew how to do it, but her chess skills were not good, and it was not difficult to teach.

"The emperor has arrived."

When Chun Xi took Xuan Ye in, Concubine Tong had just finished playing a game of chess with Yanan.

"See the emperor, the emperor is blessed and saintly."

"Concubine Tong is auspicious."

Xuan Ye waved his hand, asked everyone to get up, sat down on the throne, and asked, "I heard that you invited a teacher from outside to teach chess. But really? ”

"Miss Han Ji." Concubine Tong called out to Han Ji, who was standing behind her. Xuan Ye's arrival was expected by him, but he didn't expect it to be so soon, and he brought Chun Xi with him.

"The people's daughter Han Ji sees the emperor." Han Ji stepped forward and knelt down in front of Xuan Ye.

Xuan Ye was shocked. Today, Han Ji just wore a light purple narrow-sleeved shirt and a moon-white horse-faced skirt, but her fresh and elegant makeup made people feel more agile.

Seeing that Xuan Ye had not been called, Concubine Tong was happy in her heart. But Chunxi, who was standing next to him, was not happy, and hurriedly poked him secretly with his hand, which made him come back to his senses.

"Get up." Xuan Ye glanced at Chun Xi and teased, "But you asked me to come over." ”

"That didn't make you stare at people directly." Chun Xi snorted softly, full of reluctance.

Xuan Ye saw that she was displeased, and he didn't tease her. Chun Xi took a few steps forward, walked in front of Han Ji, circled around her a few times, returned to Xuan Ye's side, and said to Concubine Tong: "Niangniang, I don't know what this teacher is capable of, can you play a game of chess with the concubine and compare with each other?" ”

"You're not afraid of losing?" Xuan Ye deliberately asked her again.

"Maybe we'll win?"

"This palace often hears them talk about the exquisite chess skills of the nobles, since the nobles have mentioned it so, Miss Han, it is better to play a game with her." Although Concubine Tong didn't know what kind of calculation Chunxi had to come over today, she was secretly happy that this noble person had nothing to do with herself. Taking this opportunity, Cuocuo's sharpness is very good.

When Han Ji saw Chunxi enter the door, she knew what she was going to do. Now that Concubine Tong has also agreed, she naturally will not refuse.

Concubine Tong ordered someone to set up the chessboard, and Chunxi and Han Ji each held one side, one black and one white. Seeing them start playing chess, Xuan Ye also felt that he had not made a mistake today, and it was indeed a very exciting chess game.

Han Ji's method is very exquisite, and she will naturally not show weakness, and she has a strict layout. It's just that, after an hour, Chunxi is still invincible and defeated.

The whole process is intriguing. Although Concubine Tong couldn't understand Han Ji's layout, she could also see that every step she took was meticulous.

Concubine Tong was happy at the same time, but she was all shouting to leave.

Xuan Ye said helplessly: "It's you who is coming, and you're the one who is leaving." Having said that, Xuan Ye still took Chun Xi away.

As soon as they left, Concubine Tong immediately praised: "Today, Miss Han's chess skills are exquisite, which makes this palace admire. I don't know when I'll be able to practice the girl's chess skills. ”

Han Ji smiled lightly: "Where does Niangniang speak, Han Ji is just with these people every day, and she likes to specialize in research since she was a child." As long as the mother is attentive, it will not take long to make great progress. ”

"This palace does not seek to be comparable to the girl, but in the palace, in addition to the emperor and the queen mother, this nobleman's chess skills are the best. Because of this, she won the appreciation of the two, and today Miss Han plays chess, and she must know that she is a tricky chess player, I wonder if the girl has any wonderful ways to break her chess game? ”

"If the realm that Niangniang wants is just like that, Han Ji doesn't teach it." After listening to Concubine Tong's words, Han Ji smiled secretly in her heart. Chunxi's chess skills have improved a lot, and they must have been practiced with those two. And Concubine Tong actually wanted to find the trick for a while.

"Bold." As soon as she heard this, Lian Xue couldn't help it: "It's your honor to invite you to the palace to teach chess, and you dare to speak wildly, so disrespectful." ”

"Shut up and go down." Concubine Tong saw that Lian Xue was blindly involved, and was afraid of upsetting Han Ji, so she immediately reprimanded.

Lianxue was dissatisfied, but she had to leave with a gray face.

Concubine Tong saw Lian Xue leaving, and said with a smile: "Miss Han, don't mind. This girl is used to being pampered by the palace on weekdays, and she doesn't know how thick the sky is. ”

"If you want to learn chess, you should learn it steadily, and don't take shortcuts. It's not too early today, and it's time for Han Ji to leave the palace. Tomorrow, if Niangniang is still interested, she will send it to spread the word. Han Ji didn't bother with her about it, so she blocked her mouth in a few sentences.

Concubine Tong couldn't keep her anymore, so she sent someone to send her out of the palace.

Although Concubine Tong was dissatisfied with her arrogance, she was helpless. Chang Ning had already reminded her that this Han Ji was different from the people in the palace and acted casually. If you make her dissatisfied, I am afraid that I will not be able to get any benefits.

At least, she still needs this person now, and she can only endure it.
