Chapter 262: Enjoying Mei Estate
The simple and elegant pavilion is flashy but not luxurious, but it is unique in the design and placement of the house.
The earth dragon was burning so vigorously that everyone in the room had slightly red cheeks, but there was only one person, but his face was flushed with a slight imperceptible pale due to the rise in body temperature.
Ma Zhaoyi has always spoken straightforwardly, don't expect her to care about the thoughts of others, she only knows that she has to be in cahoots with Liang Bairou now, so that she can hold the glory in front of her, so that she blindly shows favor to Liang Bairou, so that she offends others and doesn't know it.
Xue Qiaoling's face was already difficult to see, but she dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, so she only picked up the cup and sent it to her lips to hide her anger that she didn't want others to notice.
Although Ma Zhaoyi didn't know, it didn't mean that others were the same, at first glance, when she heard Ma Zaoxiu's words, she almost subconsciously glanced at Xue Qiaoling, trying to find out something from it.
Concubine Liu raised her lips and smiled to try to ease the atmosphere, "I see that it is a lot warmer today, why is it that Sister Concubine De is still burning so much charcoal, so I feel a little hot after staying for a long time." β
Liang Bairou smiled apologetically, lowered her head slightly, but tightened the thin shoulders on her body in her hands, "My body has always been weaker than others, but now after giving birth to the second prince, I feel that my weakness is not replenished, and my body is not good. β
The women in this palace have always been weak and weak, and before winter comes, they burn mountains of charcoal, and they only wear thin clothes in the house, but they are so tired that they can't go far at all.
Concubine Liu Shufei looked at Liang Bai's lazy appearance, shook her head, and persuaded: "I guess, my sister must have not been out for several days." β
Liang Bairou lowered her head a little shyly when she heard this, her voice was as light as a mosquito and a fly, as if she was weak and lacking in qi, "Yes, since I was a little frightened in Qiankun Palace last time because of the abolition of Concubine Xiao, I have never been out of this Chonghua Palace." β
When Ma Zaoxiu heard this, he hurriedly said: "How can this be done!" She was the first to object, and moved out of the advice that the imperial doctor had put on her lips when he asked her for a pulse, "If it is cold today, it is not very good for the old nest to be smoked by charcoal in the house, I see that this day is warmer than usual, in my opinion, Sister Concubine De is dressed thicker, and we will go to enjoy the walk in Mei Estate together." β
Plum Blossom Estate has always been the most luxuriant place in the palace for red and white plums, among which the green plum is particularly rare. Plum Blossom Village and Maple Pavilion are all places for concubines and concubines to enjoy.
Concubine Liu Shu had heard that the gardeners in the palace had transplanted green plums into the palace this year, and she had been yearning for it, but she was suffering from the cold weather a few days ago.
"What Sister Zhaoyi said is very true, I heard that the green plum in the plum village is fragrant and beautiful, and while our sisters are here today, let's go and take a look together. β
Although Liang Bairou was reluctant at first, she struggled for a long time, but finally because the two of them were too interested, she nodded in desperation.
"Okay, okay, the weather is better today, so I went to enjoy the plum estate with my sisters. β
On the way to Xiangmei Village, the palace people and palace maids came and went frequently, all of them took advantage of the good weather today to finish the work at hand.
Concubine Liu Shufei has the most seniority, Liang Bairou is now the most favored, both of them are carried by the palace maid and walk in the front, and Ma Zaoxiu and Xue Qiaoling are close behind.
"Ah, sisters, look, there's Plum Blossom Village ahead. Ma Zaoxiu looked excited and uncontrollable, and trotted towards Xiangmei Village with her skirt, the palace people who were holding her were stunned, and when they saw the master running away, they ran forward in three steps and two steps.
Liang Bairou and Concubine Liu Shu looked at each other and smiled.
I saw Concubine Liu Shufei say softly: "Let's hurry up and keep up." β
"What my sister said is very true. "Liang Bai Judo.
Xue Qiaoling, who was left alone, opened her lips slightly, and her slightly dilated pupils showed shame and consternation.
After the horse jujube was embroidered into the plum village, he consciously grabbed Liang Bairou's jade arm, as if inadvertently squeezing Concubine Liu Shufei away.
"Sister Concubine De looked at this green plum, whether it was as elegant and unique as Sister Concubine De. "Horse jujube embroidery folded a green plum, gently hairpin on the white soft bun, smiling like a flower.
Liang Bairou covered her lips and smiled lightly, pointing to the delicate and beautiful red plum in full swing, and did not hesitate to praise, "Sister Zhaoyi is like that red plum, bright and bright." It's really unforgettable. β
Both of them were smiling brightly and joking with each other, but Xue Qiaoling and Liu Shufei, who were left aside, the former had an indifferent face, and the latter looked inexplicable.
There seemed to be the sound of shoveling snow in front of them, and the four of them all subconsciously looked over.
Qingfeng had worked in the snow before, so he explained: "It must be the palace maids who are shoveling the snow, thinking that it is not so cold today, so I think about shoveling the snow." β
Liang Bairou seemed to be a little interested, and walked towards the source of the voice, "Maybe the plum blossoms in front of you are blooming better, but I can't say." β
The other three saw Liang Bairou walking towards the other end, and Xu was also convinced of her words, 'The plum blossoms in front bloom better', and they also walked up and followed.
"Hey, did you hearβ" A deliberately muffled voice rang out.
"Huh?"
"Miss Hai, the female official who serves the emperor in the imperial study, is favored by the emperor, and I heard that she will be registered as a concubine soon. β
"I think I've heard a lot of rumors lately......"
"I heard that Miss Nahai is also from the Xue family, and she is still a half-sister with our virtuous concubine, and now the Xue family has two more concubines. β
"But isn't this matter settled yet? β
"If it's really nonsense, how can it be spread so loudly. What's more, I've heard that this is the news that came out of the imperial study. β
Although both of them deliberately lowered their voices, it was really too quiet here, and it still reached the ears of the four of them very clearly.
Ma Zhaoyi could barely suppress her temper, and she couldn't wait to step forward and slap the two of them, "These two dead girls." Dare to talk about their masters behind their backs, and see that I don't tear their mouths. β
Liang Bairou tugged at her sleeve and shook her head: "The rumors are not the two of them, haven't you heard from them, this rumor came from the imperial study, what's the use of you punishing the two of them, when it spreads, it will fall into the mouth." β
As soon as he heard the tongue, Ma Zaoxiu suppressed his emotions, but he still looked angry.
Don't take the two palace maids as the targets of the attack, Ma Zaoxiu felt a breath of qi blocked in her chest and felt sad, so she naturally pointed the finger at the half-sister who made her so arrogant - Xue Qiaoling.
Ma Zaoxiu's feet seemed to be carrying the wind, and he walked up to Xue Qiaoling angrily, and the hostility revealed by his big apricot eyes made people's hearts sink.
