Chapter 112: Adjustment Phenomenon
Jiang Shishi felt that something was wrong with the prince, but she still lowered her head and replied suspiciously: "The concubine knows."
Concubine Tang was a little fluttering, and the only remaining reason allowed her to maintain her superficial kindness, "Sister Jiang, it's okay if you are grounded, you can rest assured that you can recuperate for a while." ”
At this moment, the concubines of the East Palace are either gloating or confused.
Huang Dechang, who was only standing behind the prince, understood the prince's intentions.
It is estimated that His Royal Highness has recently favored Jiang Meiren too much, causing Concubine Tang and others to deliberately make things difficult and exclude Jiang Meiren, resulting in disharmony in the harem.
Therefore, His Royal Highness is adjusting the imbalance in the backyard of the East Palace.
Although, His Royal Highness can also protect Jiang Meiren as before, but His Royal Highness is busy with official business and will not be in the East Palace all day.
Once His Royal Highness leaves the East Palace, Jiang Meiren is in danger.
Sometimes, pampering a woman too much will backfire, and it will be unfavorable to Jiang Meiren and the East Palace.
Just like His Royal Highness once ate a few more bites of fried whitebait at a banquet, he was looked at by people with a heart, and then he did something on the fried whitebait.
The favorite meal is not easy for people to know, let alone the woman they love.
"Today in the court, my father continues to let Gu supervise the imperial examination." After training Jiang Meiren, Pei Xuanling talked about what he came to talk about.
Although the concubines of the East Palace had already known about this, now that they heard what the prince said, they were even more relieved.
Concubine Ruan said softly: "In the past few days, our sisters have been worried about His Highness, and now that the matter has been clarified, we are relieved." ”
"Your Highness, I heard that the environment of the Gongyuan is difficult, and you still have to have a caring person by your side to serve you." Concubine Tang spoke with temptation.
Anyway, Xue Liangdi is an honest friend.
The more favored Jiang Meiren was grounded again.
Gu Meiren has a slender figure, and Concubine Ruan is gentle and graceful, but she didn't see the prince look at them more.
However, from the moment she entered this door, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at her frequently, and punished Jiang Meiren in order to protect her.
Therefore, Concubine Tang felt that this time she had the most hope of following His Royal Highness out of the palace.
Pei Xuanling: "Supervising the imperial examination is different from receiving envoys, not only to supervise the cheating of candidates, but also to supervise the examiner's cover-up. ”
"Therefore, when Lone left the palace this time, he didn't plan to bring a female dependent, except for a few guards and eunuchs."
As soon as these words came out, the concubines of the East Palace all showed disappointment.
However, disappointment is disappointment, anyway, the prince doesn't bring anyone, so they can balance a little bit in their hearts.
Concubine Tang: "......" What she can't get, other women can't think of it!
"The triennial imperial examination, thousands of candidates, just thinking about it, you know how tired His Highness will be." Concubine Ruan had a gentle smile on the corner of her mouth, "Your Highness must take care of yourself and combine work and rest." ”
Pei Xuanling said lightly, "I will try for more than ten days, and during this time when I am not in the palace, I will work hard for you and Concubine Tang to be in charge of the East Palace together." ”
Concubine Ruan nodded in response.
Concubine Tang: "What His Royal Highness said, this is what a concubine should do." ”
The prince explained some things to the two side concubines, and left with someone.
At the same time, today's morning province will also be dispersed.

After Gu Meiren returned to the dormitory, she and her personal palace maid were tinkering with things in the house.
During the day, the master and servant grind pearl powder together.
In the evening, after dinner, the two began to refine snake oil.
Wait until the snake oil is refined, mix it with the ground pearl powder and put it into a compact.
After a lot of work, Gu Meiren picked out some powder with the tip of her fingernails and wiped it on her face, and looked in the mirror in front of the bronze mirror, "This is just smeared, and my face is indeed moisturized a lot." ”
"Little master, the slave also thinks the effect is remarkable." However, the palace maid asked with some anxiety: "It's just... Let's try to do it for the first time, this pearl powder and snake oil are mixed together, and it will be wiped down for a long time... Can it really work? ”
"Of course it does." Gu Meiren touched her face narcissistically, "I saw Jiang Meiren's face glowing, just when the snake oil was applied to her face, it was shiny and shiny, moisturizing the skin, and the pearl powder was both whitening and faint pearlescent, so I can't go wrong." ”
Jiang Meiren can do it herself, and so can she!
She also said very confidently: "Perhaps, the glitter we make is even better than the one that Concubine Tang bought outside, and Jiang Meiren's cooking!" ”
"But ......," the palace maid reminded in a low voice, "your skin is already oily, and if you apply some snake oil on your face, will it be counterproductive?" ”
Gu Meiren: "No, we don't put much snake oil." ”
"Yes." The palace maid nodded, and turned to talk about the harem, "Today at Concubine Tang, the slave and maid seem to have fallen out of favor when they look at Jiang Meiren?" ”
Gu Meiren: "I said a long time ago, Jiang Meiren's figure is not good, and it won't take long to be spoiled by her face alone, it's only been a few days, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is tired of her." ”
As she spoke, she stood up and looked at her slender figure in the bronze mirror, looking quite confident.

The next day, March 25.
The examination will be held on March 26, March 29, and the fourth day of April.
Candidates should enter the exam room early today and officially start the exam tomorrow.
On this day, the mist was dark, and before dawn, Jiang Shishi wrapped her chest and tried her best to make her chest flat, not easy to wear.
Then, she changed into a male guard costume and sneaked into the night.
Under the leadership of Huang Dechang, Jiang Shishi blended into the front yard of the East Palace and entered the prince's room.
"Your Highness, Jiang Meiren is here." Huang Dechang brought Jiang Shishi into the inner room.
Pei Xuanling was changing his clothes, turned his head to look at Huang Dechang, and then turned his gaze to Jiang Meiren behind.
The woman wears a guard's outfit, and the woman dresses as a man.
With a belt around his waist, he seems to have painted something on his face, and he doesn't look as white as before.
The curved willow eyebrows were also painted by her as heroic sword eyebrows, which looked like that, but if you look closely, it is still difficult to hide the delicate posture.
Pei Xuanling bowed slightly, quite satisfied with the woman's dress, "Come and change the clothes for Lone." ”
"......" Jiang Shishi was slightly stunned, "Do the guards also need to wait for His Highness to change clothes?" ”
As soon as the words came out, she looked at the prince's dissatisfied eyes, and she immediately stepped forward and waited for the man to change his clothes.
Last night, Huang Dechang ordered someone to send a set of guard clothes to Shiyue Pavilion.
said that the prince knew that she wanted to see her brother, but it was not good to take her out of the palace directly.
One is that she has been accompanying too many times recently, so as not to arouse the jealousy of everyone in the harem.
The second is that the imperial examination is a solemn and solemn occasion, and the candidates are all men, and it is not suitable for her to accompany the prince as a woman.
That's why she was dressed up as a guard.
Jiang Shishi can also understand the difficulties of the crown prince as a prince.
The key words have been said, she can follow out of the palace to see her eldest brother, and she will not pull hatred in the East Palace, why not?
"When you leave the palace this time, you will say to the outside world that you are a personal male guard with a new recruitment." Pei Xuanling colluded with a woman.
"Okay, the concubine knows." Jiang Shishi tidied up the man's clothes.
"Look at you... This is where the stuffing begins. Pei Xuanling pointed out the shortcomings of women, "When you go out, you are no longer a concubine of the East Palace, you have to call His Royal Highness Prince Gu like an ordinary guard, but you have to change your self-title." ”
Jiang Shishi thought about how the guards around the prince claimed to be self-proclaimed, and then she immediately corrected herself, "Yes, my subordinates understand!" ”
"......" can be understood at one point, and the children can be taught, Pei Xuanling also relaxed the requirements, "If there are no outsiders, you can also call yourself 'me'." ”
Jiang Shishi nodded in response.
"Since my self-title has changed, how will Your Highness address me?" Jiang Shishi helped the man tie the beeswax amber buttons, "You call me Shishi?" Little poems? Poetry? Or Jiang Shishi? ”
