Chapter 118: Symbiosis 2

The Phoenix Palace was quiet, so quiet that a needle falling on the ground could be heard clearly.

The sparrow's injuries were almost healed, and she served in front of Gu Qing all day long, never leaving an inch.

Every day was very boring, and it was a hot summer, so Gu Qing had to send the sparrow to the library to borrow some books to observe.

Anyway, it's better to pass the time of boredom than to go outside in the sun.

"You don't know the talent, the people over there didn't want to lend it to us at first, if it wasn't for the fact that he met Zhao Gonggong halfway and asked him to say a few good words, this book, I'm afraid that the slave wouldn't be able to borrow it." ”

The sparrow returned to the Phoenix Palace with a stack of books in her arms, and said breathlessly. As soon as she saw so many books, Gu Qing felt like she had seen a baby, and she had arrangements for the next long time.

Jinque looked at Gu Qing's appearance and wanted to stop talking, but the words were extremely uncomfortable in her mouth, so she tentatively asked in her ear: "Why don't talented people care about the affairs of the harem?"

Gu Qing didn't notice anything unusual, and said casually: "What happened in the palace?"

“...... In fact, it's nothing, it's just that the emperor has been staying in Ningxing Palace for a long time in recent days, and they are all talking...... You've fallen out of favor. ”

I could clearly feel that Gu Qing's fingers were stunned for a moment, and after a while, he immediately returned to a bland appearance, "Isn't it a good thing that the emperor can often go to Ningxing Palace?"

"It's a good thing, yes, but have you ever thought about what the queen wants to do most after she gains power......

"Tell Gu Cairen, the people from Ningxing Palace are here. A palace maid said from outside the bead curtain.

What the sparrow wanted to say behind was suddenly interrupted, and then looked at Gu Qing, his eyebrows were awe-inspiring, and he ordered lightly: "Please come in." ”

The person who came happened to be Aunt Xiaoyu of Ningxing Palace, Gu Ning's personal palace maid.

She looked at her master, and she didn't like the Gu Cairen in front of her the most.

"I have seen Gu Cairen, and the slaves and maids came to send some things to Cairen on the order of the queen's mother. Oh, these are the jade ruyi that the emperor cherished and our queen mother rewarded her, no, the emperor just left, and the queen mother immediately asked the slave to send it to the talented person. Gu Cairen, everything is a treasure, do you accept them all?"

Xiaoyu's tone was full of disdain, especially the arrogant appearance as if to say: Is it already a great blessing that the queen can give you this box of jade Ruyi, Gu Cairen, what qualifications do you have not to accept?

Gu Qing chose to ignore this, and only smiled and said: "The queen mother's heart has been received by the palace, and you go back and tell the mother that since this gift is rewarded by the emperor, it is too valuable, and the palace does not dare to accept it." ”

Xiao Yu knew that she would say this, so she simply ordered someone to carefully place the jade Ruyi on the table one by one, and then saluted: "Come on, Gu Cairen should forgive some slaves and maids." If the slaves and maids do not do a good job of what the queen has already ordered, they are afraid that they will be held responsible. Gu Cairen must accept it, after all, the only one who can speak and call the shots in the harem is the queen mother. ”

What it actually means is that everyone has to do what the queen tells them to do, just because she's the queen!

Gu Qing sighed silently, the fingers in his sleeves clenched slightly, and then slowly let go, and only said, "Concubine Xie Empress for her favor." ”

Xiao Yu smiled contemptuously, her task was completed.

But evil came to the door.

That night, when Gu Qing was reading at night, Zhao Gonggong's hurried voice suddenly came from outside the hall: "Your Majesty!

Before she could react, the beaded curtain of the inner sanctum had been lifted.

What Gu Qing saw was Liancheng's angry face.

"The Emperor's ......"

Unexpectedly by his arrival, Gu Qing was a little cramped and uneasy, and the panic that was subconsciously born in his heart.

"You really have the guts! Why should I let her give you the jade Ruyi that I gave to the queen?"

A split is an accusation.

Gu Qing's heart sank, and then she dressed calmly and knelt down to make a big salute, and the moment her forehead touched the ground, her voice was particularly loud in the hall: "Back to the emperor, those jade ruyi were sent by the queen maid Xiaoyu, and they were sent to the Phoenix Palace by the queen mother willingly, not by the concubines looking for them." ”

In Liancheng's view, such a tone can only be regarded as a quibble and argument.

He strode forward and lifted the petite Gu Qing up.

"Gu Qingzhen told you that you are not qualified to get something that does not belong to you! Xiaoyu has already told me that it was you who mentioned the treasure I gave me in front of the queen, and you hoped that she could give it to you, right?"

"I ......" Suddenly, Gu Qing wanted to argue and defend himself, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say anything.

Liancheng looked like a tiger about to eat people, and Gu Qing was his prey.

They were so close that Gu Qing could hear his own breathing.

"When I value you, you are arrogant and don't take me seriously! I tell you, I won't take a step further in this Phoenix Palace! Let it exist with a cold palace!"

Then, Liancheng struggled to throw it away, and Gu Qing collapsed on the ground.

Brocade hurriedly stepped forward to help her up, and she didn't dare to ask a word for a long time.

Gu Qing looked at his departing back in a daze, and his mind was only disturbed by one sentence, "This Phoenix Palace will not take a step further!

She really won't get any more grace, she thought.

Yu Ruyi was placed on the table untouched, and the sparrow didn't even have time to make room for it to be placed.

"Talented people, those ...... What should Yu Ruyi do?"

Gu Qing thought for a long time, and said slowly: "Take it." ”

The emperor's trouble in the Phoenix Palace immediately spread to every corner of the harem.

The fragrance was rising, Gu Ning closed her eyes and took a nap, Xiaoyu was painting her nails, and the bright red nails were particularly beautiful.

"Queen Mother, you don't know, how embarrassed Gu Cairen is?" Xiao Yu felt funny as long as she thought about it, in the past, it was their master who suffered a dumb loss, but this time she learned a little smarter, and she will talk about him first.

Isn't that exact, the effect is exactly the same as intended.

"Now it seems that that Gu Cairen has nothing to care about, anyway, our queen is the biggest. ”

"Oh, it's sweet in your mouth. Although Gu Ning closed his eyes, he couldn't stop laughing on his eyebrows.

In her heart, she finally felt a little comfortable.

"Although the slave has a sweet mouth, aren't you also happy with the queen?"

In the afternoon, Ningxing Palace was filled with the laughter of several people, and time passed in a flash.

Since Liancheng went to the Phoenix Palace, the troublesome harem suddenly fell silent, and no one had any trouble.

Liancheng's trend of pampering Gu Ning is also increasing, but Gu Ning's body has not heard anything for a long time.

Even the prescription prescribed by the Tai Hospital drank no less than five pairs.

Subsequently, in order to meet Gu Ning's wish to ask for a son, Liancheng added a Buddhist hall in Ningxing Palace, so that Gu Ning could often express his wish to ask for a son to the Bodhisattva.

In this regard, Gu Qing did not have a trace of turmoil in his heart, and even felt ridiculous.

The fetus in Gu Ning's womb, isn't it what he didn't want to give birth?

What kind of fame is there now? Asking for a son and asking for a son, can it really be useful to just ask for a bodhisattva?

Today, the Cockpinch brought back good news.

A few days ago, Gu Qing entrusted her to investigate the eunuchs who appeared in Ronghua Palace, and it was already settled.

That "eunuch"-

"It's someone outside the palace. If you put it in detail, it means that the person who Rong Gui's mother family is a small servant in the house. You also know that there is a lot of controversy about the predecessor of Rong Guifei. ”

Concubine Rong was a dancer before, or something.

"What's that man's name, and why does he keep going in and out of the court?"

"The man's name is Yu Zheng, but he is just a servant who eats and eats, and there is nothing special about it. As for why you can enter and leave the palace freely, it depends on whether it is arranged by Rong Guifei. ”

Gu Qing nodded, it was just an example of the concubine in the palace stealing fish, it was not surprising.

"This information is still inquired about by the slave maid relying on the only remaining family funds. Speaking of which, the sparrow has a little complaint.

Gu Qing couldn't help but smile when he heard this: "What's the matter? This month's money, just a few more ingots of silver will be given to you." ”

Jinque was overjoyed: "Thank you!"

Outside the hall, a woman in pink palace clothes listened to all the words of the two, and while the two in the hall were not aware of it, she hurriedly trotted out from the side of the Phoenix Palace.

In the Yuzi Pavilion, when Su Guifei was about to change the hairstyle of the potted plant with a large pair of scissors in her hand, she heard the advice of the visitor and suddenly couldn't sit still.

"Did you really hear clearly? The man who appeared in Ronghua Hall is called Yu Zheng?"

The little palace maid who had told her earlier nodded first and then immediately shook her head, "Back to your concubine, the slave doesn't know what this has to do with Ronghua Palace, I only know that Gu Cairen talked about Rong Guifei, and what else did Yu Zhengneng often say in and out of the palace......

Su Guifei's eyes instantly burst out with a dangerous light, and the scissors kept shaking in her hands, "That's it, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, the Phoenix Palace actually knew the news of her reluctance!"

"What?" the palace maid exclaimed.

Su Guifei immediately stopped: "What is it called! If you dare to say a word today, see that this palace will not pull out your tongue and gouge out your eyes!"

"Yes, yes, the slave doesn't dare to ......"

"You go back first, and inquire about the news of the palace in the Phoenix Palace, otherwise, your elderly parents will ......"

"Don't worry, your concubine! The slave and maid are tight-lipped and will never say a word!"

Hearing her say this, Su Guifei was relieved.

In this way, she is really happy to have a sweet dream.

The Phoenix Palace also knew the news of that slut's stubbornness, why didn't she just plan it?

"Guifei, we already know the news, what should we do now?" Looking at Su Guifei's uncertain expression, Cai'er knew that she must have a plan in her heart.

Sure enough, Su Guifei handed her the scissors, wiped her hands with a handkerchief, and said arrogantly: "We don't have to do anything, just send someone to take a good look at the gate of Ronghua Palace, and as soon as Yu Zheng appears, let the people from Phoenix Palace come forward." When the time comes...... hehe"
