Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Concubine's Birthday

The night is draped, and the moon and stars are scarce.

The candle flame went out, the slender jade fingers rubbed the withered yellow and rough pages for a slight pause, and the thick curly eyelashes were gently lifted up like butterfly wings, revealing bright eyes like pearls, with a little helplessness, looking at the man who was staring at him for nearly half an hour, and said lightly: "What are you doing looking at me like this?"

Lin Yan sneered, "Tsk, I thought about how strong your concentration was, but now it's only been half an hour and I can't hold it anymore." ”

Beichen Xu lowered his eyes and did not say a word, only quietly closed the rough and thin book, "You block my candlelight......"

Lin Yan shook his head lightly, knowing that he wanted to die to save face and suffer the crime, he found a position that he felt more comfortable and sat cross-legged, and said: "Why did you explain to Princess Pingyang for that palace maid today, if Princess Pingyang suspects that you have an affair with that palace maid, wouldn't it be worth the loss?"

Beichen Xu also learned from him to sit cross-legged, quietly added water to his own cup, raised his head and drank it all, "But you intend to guide Princess Pingyang to come?"

The reason why Princess Pingyang enjoys privileges is nothing more than that the first emperor allowed her to enter and play with pear blossoms when he was alive, and then the first emperor died, and the new emperor favored her, and when she was young and playful, she was never deprived of the right to enter and exit the Proton Pavilion. Rao is princess Pingyang covers the sky with one hand, but she can only insert her eyeliner outside the Proton Pavilion, so what happened to Xue Hainiang after entering the Proton Pavilion, no third person knows except him and Lin Yan.

If you don't know what happened in the Proton Pavilion, how could Princess Pingyang be suspicious so much that she came to the door to verify, in the past, Fang'er also went in and out of the Proton Pavilion every day to deliver food, why didn't Princess Pingyang be so concerned?

Lin Yan was born in the northern aristocratic Lin family, Beichen Xu's mother's family was powerful, Beichen Xu's biological mother pointed the young Lin Yan to Beichen Xu's palace as a waiter, because Lin Yan has been with Beichen Xu since he was a child, although there is no blood thicker than water, but it is better than his relatives.

Lin Yan can guarantee that no one in the world except for the concubine who regards Beichen Xu as his own life, no one understands his temperament better than him Lin Yan, he is thoughtful, he was brilliant when he was young, he can speak before the full moon, he can read through the sages at the age of three, he can write poems at the age of five, he entered the southern kingdom as a hostage at the age of seven, and the emperor sent him to the emperor's prison to listen to the master's preaching with the prince at the age of eight.

Yes, Beichen Xu can gain insight into the details, but it is reasonable.

Lin Yan hooked his lips and smiled lightly, and said frankly: "Yes." ”

Without waiting for Beichen Xu to question the reason, Lin Yan had already reported in detail: "I secretly revealed the palace maid to Princess Pingyang through Biluochun, Princess Pingyang was suspicious, and she couldn't rub a single sand in her eyes, so she used her hand to get rid of Xue Hainiang, which not only did not fall into the mouth, but also got twice the result with half the effort." ”

Beichen Xu raised his eyelids lightly and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Are you suspicious of her?"

Lin Yan sneered, "How many years have the Queen Mother's methods emerged one after another, why should I be suspicious?" he paused, and said: "Besides, even if she is innocent, she would rather kill a hundred by mistake than put one person wrong, only in this way can we protect ourselves." Murderous opportunities are everywhere here, the new emperor ascends the throne, and the queen mother controls the government, and we must not relax at all. ”

Beichen Xu was in a trance for a while, and the jade finger holding the corner of the book gradually turned white, "Even if I don't excuse her today, she still has a way to eliminate Princess Pingyang's suspicions." ”

Lin Yan was furious, "Ridiculous, you and I have known each other for several years, and now how can you lie to me because of a servant who doesn't know whether he is friend or foe." ”

He has a relationship with that servant, but he also saw his heavenly fragrance and national color, graceful demeanor, with the jealous and arrogant nature of Princess Pingyang, even if she knew that Xue Hainiang and Beichen Xu had no selfish relationship, she would never let the woman who was better than her face opposite Beichen Rising Sun.

Originally, Lin Yan speculated that if Beichen Xu was really interested in Xue Hainiang and tried to defend Xue Hainiang, Princess Pingyang would not cure her for capital crimes because Beichen Xu would not cure her, and would never let Xue Hainiang continue to stay in the Proton Pavilion to serve, but he heard now that Princess Pingyang not only did not punish the crime, but allowed Xue Hainiang to continue to stay in the Proton Pavilion to serve.

Now, Beichen Xu said that Xue Hainiang has her own way to get out.

is only a palace maid, why did she make the arrogant, willful, and ruthless Princess Pingyang indulge her.

Beichen raised his eyes to look at Lin Yan suddenly, his starry eyes contained a strange streamer that others could not penetrate, and he said faintly: "When I see her today, there are many copper yellow spots under her eyelids and cheeksβ€”β€”"

Lin Yan had an epiphany.

β€”β€”

"It's late at night, I'm tired, but the candle flame is very dazzling, Huanyue, Caixi, extinguished the candlestick standing next to the screen for me......" Liang Bairou raised her hand to cover her lips, yawned long, and her jade face was tired.

Huanyue Caixi immediately did so.

The candle flame is extinguished, and the raindrops are pouring outside the window, beating on the acacia flowers planted in the spring today-the most common flower in the lonely palace, symbolizing the return of words, raising the eyebrows, however, it is the most illusory existence planted in the palace.

"How are you today, I haven't seen you so sleepy on weekdays?" Xue Hainiang covered her lips and chuckled, her delicate jade face was full of ridicule and cunning, and under the slight candle fire, her skin was like condensed fat, delicate and flawless, and there was no posture of withering yellow and spots in front of the people of Proton Pavilion today.

Liang Bairou sighed lightly, closed the jade palm script, and closed her beautiful eyes lightly, "Song Zhaoyi, the lord of Zhongcui Palace, didn't seem to talk much when I saw the palace that day, but I didn't expect that she was so good at meeting the source left and right, she was in my Chonghua Hall early this morning, and said that she wanted to go with me to ask Concubine Shu Niangniang for peace...... She is the lord, and the position is above me, how can I make her wait a long time, even if I am full of resentment, I must get up and freshen up, and go with her to meet the lady before I have eaten.

I thought that after asking for peace, but unexpectedly after coming out of Chaoyang Palace, she pestered me to go to the concubine Niangniang to ask for peace, which is okay, after returning to Zhongcui Palace, she did not know whether intentionally or unintentionally mentioned the birthday of Xiao Guifei, she intended to give a picture of spring flowers, and invited me to work with the embroiderer, no one in the palace knew that my embroidery was excellent, so that I was pestle next to the embroidery frame all day long......"

Xue Hainiang's eyes flashed slightly, keenly catching the word 'birthday' between her words, "Concubine Xiao's birthday?"

Liang Bairou bowed her head slightly, and she was already paralyzed on the chaise longue, "On the eighth day of the first month of March, half a month later, I saw Song Zhaoyi so exhausted...... Speaking of which, I didn't even know anything about the concubine's birthday. ”

Xue Hainiang closed the notebook in her palm, raised her eyelids slightly, and smiled at her, "Instead of thinking about such things, it is better to prepare for the new concubines to sleep in seven days, I see that the emperor is interested in Sister Liang, if you are favored and you are the person at the top of the emperor's heart, the matter of Xiao Guifei's birthday is simple!"
