Jingqian Palace.

Fuxi came into the hall from the outside, looked inside, looked a little embarrassed, and stopped talking.

At that time, Pei Yao was eating with Qiu Baolin, Hong Zheng was waiting on the side, and when he saw Fuxi coming in, he guessed that the apprentice was in trouble at a glance, so he whispered.

"Your Majesty, there seems to be something to spread outside."

Hearing this, Pei Yao raised his eyes and glanced at the door, then retracted his gaze and nodded lightly.

Hong Zheng immediately gave Fuxi a look, and the latter came in, saluted and spoke.

"Your Majesty, someone from Yuzhang Palace has come, saying that Concubine Zhao invited the emperor to come over for lunch."

When he said this, Fuxi didn't even raise his eyes to look at his head.

He's embarrassed, too.

Today, I saw that the emperor personally brought Qiu Baolin back to Jingqian Palace, and had lunch together, which shows that the emperor is interested in Qiu Baolin.

But this time, Concubine Zhao's people came, and asked him to spread the word, and he couldn't offend him.

So I gritted my teeth and risked being scolded.

Hearing this, Pei Yao said in a deep voice, "Tell the concubine that I am already having lunch, so that she doesn't have to wait for me. Go over to see her in the evening. ”

"Slaves obey!" Fuxi hurriedly saluted and withdrew.

This is a good answer, and it is easier to explain it to the Yuzhang Palace.

When he went out, he saw Yanwei waiting outside.

"What did the emperor say?" Yanwei asked.

Fuxi smiled flatteringly, "The emperor has already eaten this time, why don't you put down the chopsticks halfway, but the emperor said that he will go to Yuzhang Palace to see the concubine Niangniang in the evening." ”

When he said this, Yan Wei's face immediately changed and he pouted.

"Is that fox in there?"

"Good sister, don't make it difficult for me!"

Fuxi said with a bitter face.

Yan glanced at him with disgust, but still neatly took out a heavy purse from his arms and stuffed it, and said.

"How can I blame you, our mother's heart is clear, your sensible can be remembered, I hate that Zhong Cui Palace now, it's not good!"

"Hey, where can I not remember the good of the mother, sister, don't worry, I will say a few words in front of the emperor later, tell the one to go quickly, and the emperor will accompany the concubine."

Fuxi also took advantage of the situation to say nice things and coaxed Yanwei to leave.

And when he returned to the Yuzhang Palace, Yan Wei still had the annoyed look on her face just now, and smiled at the other party.

"Niangniang, it's all done, when the slave and the maid are talking to Fuxi, Qiu Baolin's dowry maid Rongxiu is hiding not far away and listening."

At that time, Fang Yu was enjoying a meal alone.

Hearing this, the corners of his lips hooked.

"It's good, it won't be long before this happens, I'm afraid that the harem will know about the competition between the palace and Qiu Baolin today."

"If it weren't for it, how could she have this face, worthy of dangling in front of her mother." Qingrong gave Fang Yu Bucai, "Niangniang, don't worry, the slaves and maids have been instructed to do the next thing, and they know what to do." ”

Fang Yu nodded, and finally asked, "Does the queen have any moves?" ”

During this time, she looked at the queen, who seemed to be sitting in the stands, and did not intend to meddle in the following affairs.

Sure enough, Qingrong replied, "Everything is normal for us on the queen's side, but the slave maid noticed that someone in Fengxuan Palace seemed to be inquiring about Concubine Yan's side, but the slave maid was not completely sure, so she didn't report it for the time being." ”

Hearing this, Fang Yu's hand paused.

"Queen Zha Yanfei? Could it be that the queen is aware of it? ”

After all, Pei Yao has been hanging Lin Chan for so long, and suddenly became a concubine, although it is under the banner of making trouble with Fang Yu, it seems that he deliberately promoted Lin Chan to the throne, and Fang Yu is angry, but after thinking about it, it is actually more appropriate to raise Qiu Baolin.

So it is reasonable for the other party to be suspicious.

"The slave doesn't know, but the queen doesn't seem to have found anything." Qingrong said.

Fang Yu narrowed her eyes, "Concubine Yan is cautious, the emperor and the palace still need to cooperate to make a play to lure the snake out of the hole, the queen just inquired like this, it is difficult to get useful information, at most, it can be found that Concubine Yan and Qiu Baolin have dealings." ”

"Then should we tell the emperor?" Yan frowned slightly, "In order to be able to deal with Concubine Yan wholeheartedly, Niangniang deliberately provoked the unhappiness between Lan Liangyuan, Xu Liangyuan and Concubine Wan, and told them to fight together, don't get in the way, don't go wrong with the queen." ”

"Not necessarily." Fang Yu took a bite of food, "The queen is from a famous family, and she has always had no problem with righteousness and right and wrong, once she finds out that Concubine Yan has a conspiracy, she will definitely expose it, and in the end, it will coincide with us. ”

When she said this, Qingrong and Yanwei nodded slightly and didn't say anything more.

At that time, in Jingqian Palace, Qiu Baolin was carefully waiting for Pei Yao to eat.

"Your Majesty, if the concubine comes to Jingqian Palace for dinner today, will it make the concubine unhappy, the concubine is very worried, otherwise, the concubine will retreat first, and the emperor will go to Yuzhang Palace to accompany the concubine for dinner."

Standing at the table, Qiu Baolin spoke cautiously, with self-blame and fear on his face.

Pei Yao raised his eyes and glanced at her, "Don't worry, the concubine is not such a stingy person, you can sit, you don't have to stand and serve me." ”

"Yes." Qiu Baolin nodded, and said, "The emperor doesn't blame the concubine for thinking too much, the concubine just doesn't want to affect the mood of the emperor and the concubine because of herself, after all, the concubine doesn't seem to like the concubine very much, and the concubine doesn't know where to make the concubine unhappy." ”

Speaking of this, Qiu Baolin raised his eyes to look at Pei Yao, his eyes were slightly red, and he bit his lip and said.

"The concubine has a request, and I hope the emperor can agree."

"You say."

Pei Yao said in a deep voice while eating vegetables.

"The concubine hopes that the emperor can tell the concubine Niangniang, the concubine has no disrespect for the concubine, although for some reason, the concubine does not like the concubine, but please the concubine Niangniang can tell that the concubine must be corrected, just ask the concubine, don't dislike the concubine so much."

When she said this, Qiu Baolin slowly lowered her head, lowered her eyes, and tears immediately slid down her cheeks, and then she immediately raised her hand to wipe them away, as if she was afraid of being seen.

But the two sat opposite each other, how could Pei Yao not see it.

Immediately frowned.

"You don't have to worry, I will tell her, her unhappiness has nothing to do with you, it's all because when I summoned you, she was in a bad mood, so she was angry, what she did before was a little petty, you bear with it, Concubine Zhao has always been gentle and considerate, I will talk to her in the future, she will definitely not embarrass you again."

Hearing this, a trace of disappointment crossed Qiu Baolin's drooping eyes.

This was clearly not the answer she wanted.

But she also secretly told herself that Concubine Zhao has been favored for many years, and her status in the emperor's heart is different, so she is naturally more oriented.

If the emperor immediately protected her and held her and suppressed Concubine Zhao, she would have to think about whether there was a ghost.

So at this time, Qiu Baolin also nodded in a well-behaved manner.

"Concubine Xie Emperor, the concubine knows that Concubine Zhao must be an excellent person, otherwise how could the emperor value it so much."

This sentence praised the two people, Pei Yao listened to it, and also smiled, signaling her to continue eating. (End of chapter)
