"The slave and maid greet the county lord, and the county lord is blessed." Cui Shangfu and the people of the Shangfu Bureau saluted together.

"Cui Shangfu is exempt." Shen Xihe personally helped the old and senior female official, "There is Lao Cui Shangfu who came in the cold wind. ”

"Don't dare, it's the responsibility of the slave and maid, the slave and maid brought Si Bao, Si Yi, and Si Ornament to come, does the county lord first look at the deed book, or the treasure jewelry?" Cui Shangfu was very respectful.

There are six Shang in the palace, one Shang and four divisions, the Shangfu Bureau Si Bao is the pattern of the dress of the people in the palace, the Si Yi is the clothes and jewelry, and the Si ornament is the scarf, the ointment, and the instrument plays.

Shen Xihe's clothes and jewelry are arranged by the Shangfu Bureau, and they have to bathe that day, clean their hands, and incense, which is also the business of the Division, and there is also a Division, which is responsible for the honor guard, which is in accordance with the regulations, and does not need to work Shen Xihe personally to see it.

"Cui Shangfu arranged it." Shen Xihe also gave respect.

Cui Shangfu opened it to Shen Xihe from the pattern of the clothes, and brought a few patterns, each of which carefully explored Shen Xihe's preferences, which not only meant auspiciousness, but also matched her eyes.

Shen Xihe saw a set of ivory white embroidered butterfly-like flat leaves, Shen Xihe liked it at a glance, it was the most simple set of all the dresses, and the rest were rich and similar to peony flowers, or peacocks and birds.

"That's it." Shen Xihe pointed to this set of ivory-white full-breasted skirts.

"This set of clothes is a bit plain, and the county lord likes it, so he chooses some luxurious hairpin ornaments." Cui Shangfu asked people to put away the clothes Shen Xihe had chosen, and asked Si Yi to bring the people below to come up and show the matching hair accessories one by one.

The most important tiara, Shen Xihe saw a silver-white beaded chain inlaid with many pearls, gorgeous and complicated, which just complemented the dress, and selected other jewelry.

She is very simple, unlike other masters in the palace who have to point out where they are not satisfied after choosing, from the whole style to the workmanship techniques to their hearts, but these masters do not understand this, some techniques and jewelry and styles cannot be integrated, otherwise they are nondescript, and they dare not refute these slaves.

Cui Shangfu and the people in the Shangfu Bureau were very happy that Shen Xihe was so easy to talk to, and the matter was quickly finalized, as for the utensils and spices and ointments to be used that day, Hongyu told them, Shen Xihe wanted to talk to Gu Zexiang alone for a while, and Cui Shangfu generously let him go.

"County Lord." When she went to a place where there was no one in private, Gu Zexiang saw that Shen Xihe was a little cramped, the last time she Shen Xihe asked her about the past of His Royal Highness the Prince, it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who instructed Cui Shangfu to let her say this, although it was all the truth, but she always felt that she couldn't stand Shen Xihe.

"You're upset about what happened last time, aren't you?" Shen Xihe's eyes are like torches.

"County master, slave maid ......" Gu Zexiang was even more ashamed, and didn't know what to say.

"Don't be uneasy, you didn't hurt me, what you said to me is also the truth, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't tell you, pick an old palace maid to talk to you, and you come to tell me again, you won't be upset, you feel that you are helping me, not making a deal with someone to calculate me." Shen Xihe smiled lightly, "For me, there is no difference between the two, it doesn't matter how the process is, the important thing is that in my heart, you helped me." ”

"County Lord, I'm ......" Gu Zexiang was still embarrassed, she wanted to say that in her heart, Shen Xihe would always be the sister who sent a message to her and would comfort her, and would bring her some small things.

But her current identity, Shen Xihe's identity, and the difference between them, she is not qualified to be commensurate with Shen Xihe and sisters.

"You and I only have fellowship on letters, but I don't know that I am cold, and I value interests more than affection." Shen Xihe's way of comforting people is very unique, "I came to look for you today, and I also want to ask you for help, naturally not to ask for affection, but to see if you can take advantage of this to jump up, how high Dianyi and Siyi can climb depends on your ability." ”

Gu Zexiang looked at Shen Xihe in a daze, she felt a little sour in her heart, the Shen Xihe who came to the palace to find her and wanted to take her out of the palace was gone, she first used her interest in Shen Xihe, and they would only have interests in the future.

Even though she felt uncomfortable in her heart, Gu Zexiang didn't feel too sad and sad, and quickly collected her emotions: "County Lord, please speak." ”

"You are in the Shangfu Bureau, I will give you a kind of lavender, you want to make Princess Yangling like it, and I will mix this incense according to Princess Yangling's preferences." Shen Xihe said lightly, "It's best to let the person you want to pull down dedicate to Princess Yangling, don't do it before the year, plan slowly, and then make it happen when Tubo and relatives come to fruition." ”

Gu Zexiang has been in the palace for so long, and she has seen a lot of private affairs, and when she heard it, she knew that it was not a trivial matter, her heart was tight, and after thinking about it, she asked: "Can the county lord tell the slave maid that this lavender is harmful to the princess?" ”

Shen Xihe didn't hide it: "It's not much, it's just that it's easy to get dizzy and nauseous when it's heavy." ”

Gu Zexiang didn't guess what Shen Xihe was going to do, he only thought about whether he wanted to charm Princess Yangling, but if he wanted to charm Princess Yangling, incense, it was faster and easier to take medicine.

"You can decide at your discretion." Shen Xihe not only did not urge, but said, "Don't worry, even if I tell you, you can also refuse, I am not afraid that someone will know my secret, just because no one can catch me." ”

Gu Zexiang knew that she was unwilling to participate, and when she saw Princess Yangling unlucky in the future, she suspected that she was the mastermind, and she couldn't find evidence against her, so she could only rot the secret in her stomach.

Gu Zexiang is a smart person, and she understands what Shen Xihe said to her, in addition to being confident and surprised, she also revealed that she is not involved, and Shen Xihe will find someone else.

Her father, mother, brothers and sisters are dead, and the revenge has been avenged, originally thinking that she should go to find them, but thinking that A-Niang was dying and wanted her to live a good life, she didn't dare to commit suicide, she is no longer a crime now, and she will have a chance to leave the palace when she reaches the age of twenty-five.

Save some family funds, find an honest and reliable person to marry and have children in the future, and choose a child with her surname, which can be regarded as letting the Gu family have a succession, but if you want to live peacefully in the palace until you are released from the palace, you can't do it without fighting or grabbing, and you can only become a pawn or a scapegoat if you don't fight or grab, and only enough ferocity and vigilance can last.

If there is someone to protect it, it will be more safe and stable, Gu Zexiang weighed it for a long time: "The county master handed it over to the slave maid, and the slave and maid will definitely live up to the trust." ”

"You just have to rest assured, there will be someone in the palace to help you." Shen Xihe smiled and gave Pearl a look.

She has the intention to cultivate Gu Zexiang, and when she arrives in the East Palace in the future, the harem is powerful, and there is no mother-in-law, there is a daughter-in-law, how can there be a reason for her aunt to be in power?

The concubine is also an aunt.

The Shang Gong Bureau crisscrosses the entire harem, and she needs to cultivate her own power from the Shang Gong Bureau at the beginning.
