On the eve of the Hundred Flowers Banquet, the palace maid of the Zengcheng Hall suddenly came with news that Concubine Xiao wanted to see the six of us.

So, we had to do some formal dressing and go to the Zengcheng Hall in groups to meet Concubine Xiao.

Actually, the so-called Concubine Xiao, if I didn't guess wrong, it was Xiao Zhaoyi, Xiao Wuya.

It's just that I don't know, later, if she will be surprised when she sees my face.

The moment I stepped into the temple, I only had one feeling, that is, the pomp was good.

In the palace, carved beams and painted columns, Concubine Xiao sat high on the main seat, wearing a vermilion flowing color dark flower cloud brocade palace dress, which made her flamboyant charm volatile to the fullest.

The hair is tied in a bun, which also makes her dazzling beauty, adding a touch of nobility and elegance.

Below the Zengcheng Palace, in the left and right rows, there were about a dozen palace maids of the same color, as well as a number of eunuchs.

Faced with this situation, I can't help but be ashamed, where did the woman who used to have straightforward eyes, no cowardice, posture, and tone that was also respectful but not humble?

When I finished looking at Concubine Xiao, Concubine Xiao's eyes were also silently looking at me, but her expression, from beginning to end, would be strange.

Anyway, I can't tell where it was strange, I just know that she wasn't as surprised as I imagined, and likewise, she wasn't as calm as I expected.

"What's your name?" Concubine Xiao stretched out her long sharp nails and asked me with a smile.

"Courtiers Cheng Tianxue, I have seen Concubine Xiao, I wish Concubine Xiao Niangniang a long and happy life." I hung my head slightly, and my tone was respectful and gentle.

When Concubine Xiao saw me like this, a trace of disappointment couldn't help but appear in her eyes.

Disappointment, I can't help but wonder to myself, what is she disappointed about? Could it be that she really hopes that I am Han Ziyu?

Thinking of this, I looked at the pomp and circumstance around here, and finally understood her purpose?

It turns out that everything she did was to give me a dismissal?

Alas, what a boring, naïve woman?

"No courtesy." Concubine Xiao waved her hand decadently, but her eyes were still beautiful: "Six girls, please sit?" ”

"Thank you, Niangniang." As we sat down, Concubine Xiao had a word, chatting with the six of us without a word.

Of course, this specific content is just a matter of the Hundred Flowers Banquet.

I don't know how long it took, the eunuch of the Zengcheng Hall suddenly shouted in a sharp voice: "Zhuo Zhaoyi has arrived, Jian Shuyuan has arrived, and Jin Jieyu has arrived." ”

Khan, are they all a group of old friends?

It seems that they have all listened to the rumors circulating in the palace, and came to see how much of my appearance is like that of the queen, right?

"Concubine, I've seen Concubine Xiao." Zhuo Zhaoyi, Jian Shuyuan, and Jin Jieyu, after coming to the Zengcheng Palace, they all bowed down and saluted Concubine Xiao.

Seeing this, the six of us also hurriedly got up, leaned over and saluted the three of them: "The courtiers have seen Zhuo Zhaoyi, Jian Shuyuan, and Jin Jieyu. ”

"Well, excuse me." Zhuo Zhaoyi waved her hand, her tone was light and gentle, and suddenly, she walked up to me leisurely, raised my jaw with her long fingers, and said, "It's really similar." ”

What is very similar, it's the same person at all, okay?

Jian Shuyuan walked over, side by side with Zhuo Zhaoyi, she glanced at me, seemed to see through my complaints, and said, "Sister Zhuo, Miss Cheng is like the queen's mother, it's just carved out of a mold, no." ”

Jin Jieyu also walked over and said, "Presumably, if Your Majesty sees Miss Cheng, you will love it." ”

Khan, what's the matter, little white rabbit, is this trying to pull hatred for me?

Also, Zhuo Zhaoyi, can you take your long claws away from my jaw.

What kind of gaze, it's the same as looking at an object, which makes people look at it, and it's extremely unpleasant.

It seems, seeing the dissatisfaction in my eyes, Zhuo Zhaoyi finally took away her claws, walked to Concubine Xiao Niangniang, His Royal Highness not far away, stood still, and said:

"Niangniang, since the queen Niangniang, went to Phoenix Mountain to recuperate, for so many years, Your Majesty has never entered the harem, and now, the appearance of Miss Cheng is a blessing for Your Majesty, and it is also a blessing for us old people in the harem."

"Oh, Zhuo Zhaoyi means that the palace will arrange a bed for His Majesty." Concubine Xiao hooked her lips, and there was no joy or anger in her eyes.

"It's not." Zhuo Zhaoyi shook his head, covered his mouth and said with a low smile: "It's for Your Majesty to be a favor." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Concubine Xiao obviously didn't understand Zhuo Zhaoyi's deep meaning.

After Zhuo Zhaoyi glanced at me ambiguously, with the permission of Concubine Xiao, she slowly walked towards Concubine Xiao and whispered in her ear.

After hearing Zhuo Zhaoyi's whisper, the smile on the corner of Concubine Xiao's mouth became more and more brilliant.

Damn, in my heart, I can't help but curse, these two people are ready to sell me, and achieve their own ulterior purposes.

The most important thing is to ignore me, the client, completely.

"Sister Zhuo, she is really a good person." Concubine Xiao praised without hesitation: "You can also think of this method." ”

Although the whispering voice between her and Zhuo Zhaoyi was very small, as thin as a mosquito ant, no matter how small the voice was, it couldn't escape my ears in this quiet and huge palace.

Before, I forgot that I was Mu Xinsuo, so I forgot everything I had before.

Now, I have regained my memory, and naturally, I have also regained my original skills.

Concubine Xiao suddenly followed Zhuo Zhaoyi, stepped down the steps elegantly, and slowly walked towards me.

I was shocked, are they going to make a move?

"Miss Cheng, this palace has heard that your beauty and talent coexist, so this time the Hundred Flowers Banquet is planned, and this palace invites you to plan, how about it?" Concubine Xiao smiled brightly, and the tone that seemed to be an invitation was actually not allowed to be refused.

"It is a blessing for a courtier to be rewarded by a mother." I was slightly blessed, smiling, with wisps of respect.

Since you can't dodge, let's go ahead, right?

Alas, but, why do you feel so aggrieved in your heart, when I wasn't the queen before, anyway, we were also standing on the same steps.

However, now, how do you feel that you are careful in everything and walking on thin ice?

Concubine Xiao glanced at me with satisfaction, and then waved her hand lazily and said, "You all stand down." ”

When I heard it, my heart was happy, and when I was just about to flash people, Concubine Xiao added another sentence and said, "Miss Cheng, stay." ”

Uh, uh, blah-

Why, I have a kind of sorrow that asks the heavens with speechless tears?

"The courtiers retired." Xue Ke, before Du Xinruo left, the two of them looked at me with a somewhat complicated expression, I think, those rumors about my appearance in the palace, they should have heard of it, right?

It's just, I don't know, if they knew, I would be Han Ziyu, when Queen Han was, they would show what kind of shocked expressions.

And Jiang Yin and Wang Wall, I don't have to think about their expressions, I know it, as for Chen Mo'er, what she thinks, I don't know in my heart.

Now, though, isn't it time for me to think about these, inconsequential things?

Now, the biggest problem is, what does Concubine Xiao want to leave me?

Before, Zhuo Zhaoyi only suggested to her that in the name of planning the Hundred Flowers Banquet, leave me in the Zengcheng Hall to attract Dongfang Yu's attention.

However, I have a faint conjecture in my heart, Concubine Xiao will definitely have her own other considerations?

As for this, what is this consideration?

I thought, that's what she was doing to leave me alone?

After Xue Ke, Du Xinruo and others left, Zhuo Zhaoyi, Jian Shuyuan, and Jin Jieyu were also slightly blessed, and finally, Zhuo Zhaoyi said goodbye: "Sister Xiao, don't bother the younger sisters, what about you and Miss Cheng?" ”

Ambiguous smile, words with unknown meaning, I can't help but froze, what do Zhuo Zhaoyi's words mean?

Did she say that she discovered my identity, or was Concubine Xiao familiar with the real Cheng Tianxue?

Shame –

Sure enough, the gap between reality and ideals is too far away?

After Zhuo Zhaoyi, Jian Shuyuan, and Jin Jieyu left, the palace maids of the Zengcheng Hall also seemed to have made an appointment, and followed closely and withdrew from the Zengcheng Palace.

Now, in the huge palace, there are only Concubine Xiao with a deep smile, and me, who is full of thoughts, the two of them look at each other, but they don't mean to take the initiative to speak.

Concubine Xiao held my hands, broke the deadlock in a timely manner, and said in a tone full of excitement: "Queen Niangniang, it's you, right?" ”

Sure enough, as I expected?

After all, she still found out my identity, but she didn't know, what would she do with my identity next?

used to be Concubine Xiao, when she was still Xiao Wuya, my deepest feeling for her was that she was a tiger girl, and she didn't let her eyebrows.

However, now that she has been in the past for many years, I dare not guarantee that after many years of deceitful by the palace wall, she can still maintain her original intention.

"Wuya, it's me." I whispered her name, since she wanted to spread out her identity, then, I don't want to hide it, tucked it, after all, I really don't want to be respectful in front of her.

I'm used to being free, and I really can't stand the constraints of these court etiquette.

"Queen Niangniang, this time, when you come back, don't leave again, okay?" Xiao Wuya suddenly said in a tone and looked at me with a little pleading.

For her strange behavior, I can't react for a while?

It's just that when I came back, I was ready not to leave, but at this moment, I didn't want to tell her what I really thought?

As the saying goes, you can't have the heart to harm others, but you can't do without the heart to prevent people.

I don't want my plan to be killed alive by Xiao Wuya before it succeeds.

"Wuya, how did you find out my identity?" I smiled slightly, sketched the corners of my lips, and deliberately changed the subject.

Xiao Wuya winked at me, took my hand, entered the inner hall, bypassed the landscape screen painting on one side, and I followed her to sit in front of the finely carved sandalwood table.

"One, it's because of Niangniang's appearance, and second, it's naturally a feeling, after all, the time that Wuya and Niangniang have spent together is not short." Xiao Wuya saw me sketching the corners of my lips with a thoughtful expression.

After a pause, he poked his head again, and said mysteriously: "In the palace before, when Sister Zhuo whispered to me, her words reminded me intentionally or unintentionally that you are the queen's mother. ”
