At the gate of the side hall, Qinglian was talking to a little eunuch on duty.

The little eunuch was only about eleven or twelve years old, and he was born very smartly, and usually, many palace maids had nothing to do, and they all liked to tease him.

The little eunuch's name is Qiao Xi, but he is also very likable.

He is the little attendant of Yu Lun, the head of the inner palace, and he rarely appears in front of the emperor. I don't know why, I came here today, and I acted as a eunuch on duty.

"The father-in-law in charge got up this morning and was not feeling well, and asked me to come and see if something had happened, when I came here, the little father-in-law on duty had something to do temporarily, and asked me to replace him here, I am afraid that the Lord will call for a while, but there is no one." Qiao Xi carried a pair of small hands behind his back and deliberately pretended to be very sophisticated.

Qinglian smiled "poof".

"Your father-in-law Yu probably went to serve Jiang Niangniang to wash his feet, but he asked you to come to inspect." Qinglian said.

Qiao Xi jumped up suddenly.

"Sister Qinglian can't talk nonsense, if such words are heard by the father-in-law in charge, she will be spanked."

"Bullshit, this girl doesn't like his vicious dog in the way." Qinglian said, "You said, I have seen it more than a dozen times alone, and you still help him hide it?" ”

Qiao Xi pouted.

"More than a dozen times, more than a dozen times, Jiang Niangniang likes to be served by the chief manager's father-in-law, and she doesn't even say anything, why are you so loud?" said it, but it was obviously unconfident.

"That's no one to tell the Lord of Long Live that one day the eldest lady and Long Live will know, what else does he say about Yu Lun?" Qinglian said.

Qiao Xi lowered his head and did not refute again.

After a while.

"Sister Qinglian doesn't go to serve the imperial concubine, but what are you doing here?"

"You have to take care of it, this girl likes to come here." Qinglian deliberately angered him.

This time it was Joe's turn to snicker.

"Sister Qinglian is here to pick up the cousin of the royal concubine, right?"

Qinglian was stunned.

"How do you know?"

Qiao Xi didn't answer, just covered his mouth and smiled.

Qinglian was a little surprised, walked over and slapped him the top of the head.

"Little bastard, don't say much, or I'll want my mother to cut out your tongue."

Qiao Xi covered his head and fled far away, but he deliberately made a very exaggerated expression towards Qinglian.

Qinglian raised her hand and was about to chase after her, but she heard footsteps, Shen Pu walked out under the guidance of a eunuch, and Qinglian had to stop.

"According to the order of my mother, the slave is here to wait for Lord Shen."

The eunuch was also very happy to see Qinglian.

"Since Miss Qinglian is here, Lord Shen can go with her, and the servants can stay and serve the emperor."

"Thank you, father-in-law." Shen Pu hurriedly said.

"This girl has been waiting for Lord Shen here for a long time, but Lord Shen refuses to come over to thank me, be careful that the slave doesn't take you over." Qinglian joked and looked at Shen Pu without hesitation.

A trace of embarrassment slipped across Shen Pu's slightly thin face, and he hurriedly arched his hand, "Xiaosheng, thank you Miss Qinglian." ”

Qinglian laughed delicately.

"Forget it, it's not easy for you to come to the palace once, and the slaves and maids won't care about you. However, it is better to remember the slave and maid more in the future. If there is free time, the slave and maid will go to Chuzhou again, and Lord Shen is not allowed to rush me back in a hurry. ”

"Xiaosheng wrote it down." Shen Pu replied.

Qinglian turned around and saw that Qiao Xi was still standing not far away, pointing at herself and Shen Pu, she couldn't help but stomp her feet hard, pretending to be about to chase after her, so frightened that Qiao Xi turned her head and ran away.

After the death of the first emperor, Shen Pu once came to visit Fei Caihe, but there were too many courtyards in this palace and the roads were messy, and he couldn't remember the way to Caihe Palace.

Qinglian didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and walked with Shen Pu for half an hour, and she didn't see the shadow of Caihe Palace.

Shen Pu was anxious, and kept wiping the sweat on his forehead.

"With such a body as my cousin, it's no wonder that my mother has to remember it every day." Qinglian didn't forget to tease Shen Pu at this time, "But seriously, when my cousin sat in the lobby, he was also very powerful." ”

"Qinglian girl, Hugh will make fun of it again." Shen Pu said.

At this time, Fei Caihe in the Caihe Palace was already waiting a little impatiently, and sent the palace maid to the gate from time to time to take a look.

Finally, Qinglian, whose face was slightly burning, walked in from outside.

"Qi Yu Niangniang, my cousin is already waiting outside the door."

"Qinglian, you know that I am very earnest, why don't you invite my cousin in to meet me soon, dare you deliberately make it so difficult and beg for a beating?" Fei Caihe suppressed the urge to go out and deliberately acted angry.

Qinglian covered her mouth and quickly ran out.

Shen Pu, like Fei Caihe, was so excited that his face flushed.

"Xiaguan Shen Pu see the imperial concubine Niangniang." Although he couldn't look up, Shen Pu seemed to have vaguely sensed that Fei Caihe was right in front of him.

If it weren't for his cousin Fei Yong who sent Fei Caihe to the palace in order to please the first emperor, this cousin who has made him unforgettable to this day must have become his wife by now.

"Cousin doesn't have to be so polite, why should your own family be polite." Fei Caihe said, almost standing up several times.

"Thank you, Imperial Concubine." Shen Pu still didn't dare to raise his head.

Fei Caihe didn't want to put on a show.

"Qinglian, you wait to step down, this palace wants to talk to your cousin about some family matters."

"The slave obeys." Qinglian waved her hand at the two palace maids standing next to her, motioning for them to follow her out.

As with the emperor in the past, Qinglian did not go far after exiting, and sat alone in front of the palace gate to listen to orders at any time.

In the house, only Fei Caihe and Shen Pu remained.

Fei Caihe walked down the carpeted steps.

"My cousin is in Chuzhou as the prefect, but it's hard work, and my little sister has a lot of concerns."

Feeling that Fei Caihe had come to his side, Shen Pu raised his head. The two of them looked at each other for a long time, and they didn't speak.

"There are no outsiders here, and my cousin doesn't need to be so restrained." Fei Caihe said in a low voice, and then reached out and grabbed Shen Pu's robe sleeve and walked to the seat below the steps.

Between the two men was a small table with an incense burner.

"My cousin seems to be getting thinner and thinner than before, if you work hard, my little sister should suggest to the emperor that you be transferred back to Beijing to take up a post." Fei Caihe looked at Shen Pu's face, and his eyes revealed a little heartache.

Shen Pu was taken aback.

Although he really wanted to return to the capital, he was full of pride when he thought of himself and Bao Zheng punishing Zhao Ji and others, and he was willing to leave Chuzhou so soon.

"Thank you Niangniang, it's just that the little brother has not been in office for a long time, and he is so eager to be transferred back, I am afraid that he will be discussed by all officials, and he will be embarrassed."

Fei Caihe sighed softly.

"Actually, it's the same everywhere my cousin, although this palace is big, it's not a place to walk arbitrarily."

Listening to Fei Caihe's tone, Shen Pu couldn't help but feel sad.

"Have you read the letter that my little sister asked Qinglian to bring you?" Fei Caihe changed the topic, "I heard that my cousin and Lord Bao worked together to handle the case, jointly protect the safety of the second prince, and captured that Zhao Ji, presumably the emperor must be a dragon's heart and praised Lord Bao?" ”

Shen Pu was slightly surprised, Fei Caihe's words were obviously meaningful.
