Chapter 202: The concubine shows goodwill

Zhu Weiyi smiled and looked at her, but this sentence had some other meaning.

Cheng Shuiyao glanced at Zhu Weiyi slightly, and immediately burst into a smile, "The hibiscus cake in the air is very sweet, and the courtiers really like it." ”

There was no meaning in what he said, so Zhu Weiyi couldn't find the slightest fault at all.

Zhu Weiyi didn't expect to make a fuss in this regard, she glanced at Cheng Shuiyao with a little meaning, and then moved her gaze away, as if what she said just now was really just a casual question.

But is Zhu Weiyi's starting point really that simple?

Cheng Shuiyao didn't know, so she didn't dare to speak presumptuously.

"It's almost time, let's go to dinner with me," the concubine Niangniang, who had changed her clothes, stepped into the main hall with an indifferent expression, as if nothing had happened.

When the others heard the sound, they said yes, and one after another they stood up and began to walk out.

There are not many people left in the palace themselves, and now more than half of them are gone, and the rest of them are nothing more than a few.

"Why did my sister go just now? My sister heard that even the queen mother was alarmed," Zhu Weiyi walked up to Huang Qiyu and asked with a smile.

said that it was asking, but in fact, it was poking at Huang Qiyu's pain points.

"It's not bothering my sister, the lunch outside is quite rich, my sister should hurry up and eat," Huang Qiyupi smiled and opened her mouth, and after speaking, she turned around and walked away, not caring about Zhu Weiyi's expression at all.

Cheng Shuiyao happened to hear the conversation between the two people, but she didn't stop at all, but left here quickly.

The fight between the two mothers was not something she should be involved in, and it was better for her to leave early.

Walking outside, he knew that Huang Qiyu had made a big deal.

Today's dishes are mainly tonic soups, and all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas are mixed in, which is worth a lot of money.

Cheng Shuiyao looked at the ginseng in the soup cup in front of her, which was the size of her palm, and the corners of her eyes couldn't help twitching.

No wonder it is rumored that the emperor is very fond of the concubine, just this battle, I'm afraid the queen will have to be jealous.

"Bengong is not in good health, and the food is lighter on weekdays, I hope you don't mind," Huang Qiyu sat in the first place and said with a smile.

Are you sure this "light" is not showing off?

Cheng Shuiyao complained in her heart, but her face didn't show anything.

Lunch soon began, and Huang Qiyu was greeting around with a wine glass full of juice, and the shelves were very low.

It's just that as long as she can observe, you can see that she deliberately walked to the side of the male guest.

Cheng Shuiyao shook the cup in her hand leisurely, and watched Huang Qiyu calmly toast the palace chip, with a faint smile on her face.

But Huang Qiyu covered it up very well, and after toasting a glass of wine, she went elsewhere, and she didn't stay long at all, if others didn't know what was going on between the two of them, I'm afraid they wouldn't be suspicious.

No wonder it hasn't been discovered for so long.

Cheng Shuiyao nodded secretly and looked away.

Zhu Weiyi didn't know when she quietly quit, and the position was already empty.

Cheng Shuiyao stared at the empty position for a long time, really a little confused.

Zhu Weiyi came here today, just to fight with Huang Qiyu? It's not like her character.

"What are you looking at," Huang Qiyu didn't know when she walked up to Cheng Shuiyao, looked at her staring into the distance with a serious face, and said in surprise.

"It's okay, it's just a distraction," Cheng Shuiyao was forced to interrupt her thoughts and smiled apologetically at Huang Qiyu.

"After lunch, it's time for some small activities I've prepared, if you're interested, why don't you take a walk with me."

Huang Qiyu deliberately didn't use the palace, and made it clear that she wanted to get closer to Cheng Shuiyao.

"Okay," Cheng Shuiyao didn't refuse, and directly agreed.

Huang Qiyu treated her with this attitude, just because she helped relieve the siege just now, but she didn't plan to refuse.

Because she also happened to have something to ask Huang Qiyu.

There was not much movement when the two men left, and no one noticed that they were gone, except for the people who were deliberately observing them.

Walking all the way to a quiet pavilion, Huang Qiyu pointed to the table in the middle, and took Cheng Shuiyao over to sit down.

"Thank you for helping to solve the siege today, otherwise it will be difficult for me and Gong Chip to deal with this matter," Huang Qiyu didn't hide it, and went straight to the point and said his gratitude.

"Niangniang doesn't have to be thankful, there is nothing right or wrong in this matter itself, I just don't want to see the tragedy happen when I help you," Cheng Shuiyao waved his hand, not taking this matter to heart.

"Do you have anything you want?" Huang Qiyu opened her mouth directly, and her expression was very sincere.

As long as Cheng Shuiyao speaks, it means that they are already on the same front, and she naturally doesn't have to worry about Cheng Shuiyao going out to expose herself.

"I don't have anything I want, but there is one thing I want to ask my mother to tell," Cheng Shuiyao knew Huang Qiyu's worries, and directly said her thoughts.

"One thing? Anything, as long as I know I will speak. ”

Huang Qiyu was slightly surprised, but quickly restrained her expression.

"Do you know that there is an old concubine living in the direction of the palace?" Cheng Shuiyao stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction where Jiang Qingqing was, with a bit of exploration on his face.

Since Huang Qiyu can sit in the position of concubine, she is naturally the first batch of concubines to enter the palace, and she must have more understanding of the people in the palace.

"...... in that direction" Huang Qiyu looked in the direction she pointed, pondered for a while, and then suddenly remembered a person, "Is it a very old concubine?" ”

"Exactly," Cheng Shuiyao nodded, seeing that she knew about Jiang Qingqing's existence, her expression became a little excited, "What do you know about her?" ”

"I don't know much about him," Huang Qiyu said hesitantly, searching in her mind as she spoke.

"The first emperor died suddenly, and the current emperor is in a hurry, and he can't properly deal with the concubines of the previous dynasty, so he can only send most of the concubines home, and the remaining small part of the ones that are not easy to deal with are either sent to the temple, or follow the prince with the title to the fiefdom, and the person you said seems to be the only one who stays in the palace."

Cheng Shuiyao nodded and did not speak, looking forward to her next step.

"I was also shocked when I knew the existence of this person before, and sent someone to check, but now the emperor seems to have deliberately blocked this news and did not allow us to have too much contact, but according to the gossip of the old man in the palace, that person was a concubine who committed adultery, and he was not executed just because he took care of the royal face."

Huang Qiyu spoke immediately, but the more she spoke, the more uncertain she became.
