In the courtyard, the queen stood in a pile with the concubines of the palace, and waited until the queen mother announced the decree to enter the palace to meet her, and everyone walked into the main hall of Shoukang Palace in an orderly manner.

After entering the palace, everyone visited one by one according to their rank, and the Queen Mother's attitude towards everyone was obviously different. He was both close and polite to the queen, gentle and gentle to Concubine Hua, only talked about the third elder brother to Concubine Qi, alienated from Concubine Jing, and smiled at Concubine Hui, and talked for a while, until the noble position was pleased, Shen Meizhuang was still pulled to stand beside the Queen Mother.

"I wish the Queen Mother a healthy and blessed life." Cao Guiren, Fucha Guiren and Zhen Huan saluted in unison.

The Queen Mother looked at Zhen Huan, who was kneeling behind, and said, "I haven't seen the nobles of Dongguan for a long time, raise your head and take a look at the mourning family." ”

When Zhen Huan heard this, she looked up at the Queen Mother.

True. The Queen Mother nodded secretly in her heart, remembering the emperor's previous maintenance of Zhen Huan, and seeing Zhen Huan cleverly and cleverly stepped forward to salute again, she made up her mind. With her appearance and temperament, she may be able to share the emperor's favor, so that the emperor will not be favored alone, so he has the heart to lift her up, and said, "She is a sensible child." It's no wonder that the emperor likes you, and the mourning family likes it too. He asked Zhu Xi to take two cloud brocades and give them to her, "Can you write?" ”

"Dongguan nobles are very talented, and they also know poetry and books." The queen thought that the queen mother really liked Zhen Huan, and deliberately talked about Zhen Huan's mastery of poetry and books, she knew that the queen mother had never liked women to study literature too much, so she interjected in response.

The Queen Mother really glared at the queen a little unhappily, but she didn't promote her because she liked Zhen Huan, so she didn't pay attention to the queen, only listened to Zhen Huan modestly say that her handwriting was clumsy, and said with a chuckle: "It's good to be able to write, you often come to Shoukang Palace to accompany the mourning family and copy the scriptures for the mourning family." Fu patted Shen Meizhuang's hand again, "Concubine Hui has been busy with the affairs of the Sixth Palace recently, and there is no one around the mourning family who can speak. ”

"The Queen Mother, this is a strange concubine who has served less recently, just right, Sister Guan can serve the Queen Mother more for the concubines, and it can be regarded as our sisters honoring the Queen Mother together." Shen Meizhuang is liked by the Queen Mother, and she speaks more kindly than others.

The Queen Mother couldn't help but smile and raised her finger to point at her: "You will be lazy." ”

"As long as the Queen Mother does not dislike the concubines, the concubines are willing to serve the Queen Mother wholeheartedly." Zhen Huan lowered her eyes in response, and the rest of the concubines had different looks, especially the queen and Concubine Hua.

Seeing that her eye medicine did not dispel the queen mother's liking for Zhen Huan, the queen suddenly understood that the queen mother's original intention was not to promote Zhen Huan, so she smiled reassuringly, still holding the queen's virtuous and decent shelf. And Concubine Hua was not so happy, she thought that she had sent so many good things to the Queen Mother, but in the end, she still let Zhen Huan gain face in front of the Queen Mother, and she couldn't help but sink her face.

After the audience, Zhen Huan did not return to Broken Yuxuan, and directly stayed in Shoukang Palace and copied Buddhist scriptures for an afternoon.

Near dusk, Zhen Huan rubbed her sore wrist and walked out of Shoukang Palace, only to come back to her senses, the Queen Mother seemed to be beating her, thinking about what had happened recently, she didn't understand why the Queen Mother suddenly attacked her, or perhaps, she deliberately trained her?

"Guan noble, my little master wants to invite the nobleman to the Chunxi Palace."

Zhen Huan stopped and looked, it was dill, thinking that she had avoided An Lingrong for almost three months, and today she was directly blocked in front of her, and it was difficult to shirk it, so she could only respond: "Okay." She was thinking about comparing herself with An Lingrong, but she didn't want to tear her face with An Lingrong, knowing that An Lingrong was far above her, and if she was completely opposed, it would be especially unfavorable to her. What's more, there is always the friendship of the past.

The Chunxi Hall was decorated with desertion, and it was not even as gorgeous as the East Hall of Broken Jade Xuan, Zhen Huan breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. She took advantage of the period when An Lingrong was grounded and raised a baby, and almost completely occupied the emperor's favor, but even so, she always felt that her weight in the emperor's heart was inferior to An Lingrong, and now seeing that the Chunxi Palace was so simple and simple, somehow, a sense of superiority welled up in her heart.

"Sister Rong, I haven't seen you for a long time." Zhen Huan showed a close smile to An Lingrong as always, and then sat down on the couch, "My body is better, I heard that my sister's fetal image is not very stable, I am really worried about you every day, I was sick a while ago, and I was afraid that I would be sick to you, so I have not been able to come to see you. ”

An Lingrong looked at Zhen Huan's smile, and felt bitter in her heart: "My sister and I are separated." ”

Zhen Huan was slightly stunned, and almost couldn't maintain a smile: "Where did my sister start with this?" ”

"My sister wouldn't have spoken to me so politely before." An Lingrong lowered her eyes and sighed lightly, after all, it was still too late, she dragged on until today to find Zhen Huan, firstly, Zhen Huan came to ask the Queen Mother for peace, and there was no excuse to avoid her, and secondly, because the person who accompanied Zhen Huan today was Cui Jinxi instead of Zhu Qing, and it was more convenient to speak, but she didn't expect that Zhu Qing would break through Zhen Huan's psychological defense line so quickly, making her so wary of herself.

Zhen Huan restrained her smile, fiddled with the tea lid lightly, and was silent for a while before speaking: "My sister is quite valued by the emperor now, even I can't compare." Thinking that when she first entered the palace, her sister kept saying that the palace could not tolerate her sincerity to the emperor, and the harem women could only seek the emperor's favor instead of love, but now I look, but my sister herself first moved her heart to the emperor and won the emperor's love. She raised her eyes to look at An Lingrong, with a complicated look in her eyes, "I'm just a mortal woman, I can't be as noble as my sister said, I treat the emperor as my husband, and I want to cut out a heart to him, not seeking results, just asking the emperor to treat me the same." Sister Rong, just think that I can't stand you. ”

"Even if it......" An Lingrong hurriedly closed her mouth and swallowed back the sentence "Even if the emperor only treats you as a stand-in for Queen Chunyuan", she looked at Zhen Huan's resolute eyes, and suddenly realized that Zhu Qing's provocation was just an external cause, and the essential reason that really made their sisters centrifuge was that Zhen Huan fell in love with the emperor without hesitation just like in the previous life, and she couldn't stop it. An Lingrong realized this, and her heart trembled a little, but she still said, "Then I can only tell my sister two more words, don't be spoiled in front of you, otherwise, let alone Concubine Hua, even the queen and the queen mother will not be able to tolerate my sister." I also hope that my sister will cherish herself. ”

Zhen Huan suddenly thought that the Queen Mother was treating her like this today maybe because she had been too exclusive to the royal front recently. He hesitated for a while before he thanked An Lingrong in a low voice.

Looking at the back of Zhen Huan leaving, An Lingrong had mixed feelings in his heart, and he couldn't help but feel a little more resentful about the emperor.

Okay, what do you do with her so care!

Compared with the emperor, An Lingrong attaches more importance to the sisterhood with Zhen Huan, and finally in this life, she and Zhen Huan have drawn a distance, and they really get along, but because a man is forced to centrifuge, she is very irritable, and even when she heard Xiao Xiazi's decree that the emperor would come to see her in the morning, she was not in a good mood, and responded coldly and casually, thinking that it was her sister Guan.

If she is not mistaken, Sister Guan will be pregnant around February next year, if she can keep the child this time, maybe the emperor will still remember the love with her sister, so as not to let her sister end up miserably leaving the palace. An Lingrong clenched his fists and secretly made up his mind.

"I saw why you lost weight again, didn't you eat well?" In the afternoon, the emperor came up to look at An Lingrong, holding her increasingly slender wrist, a little distressed, "What do you want to eat, I asked someone to make it and send it to you, it is very hard to conceive a baby for ten months, but you can't lose weight like this." ”

An Lingrong looked tired, and he didn't have the heart to talk to the emperor, so he casually said that he wanted to eat spicy food, and the emperor immediately called Su Peisheng to instruct her, and then told her all kinds of things.

Cuiyin and Dill who were standing on the side glanced at each other, and they both saw the shock in each other's eyes. Ninety-five Supreme, where has there ever been such a low voice, An Lingrong's actions today can be regarded as disrespectful, but the emperor accommodated her. Only Fen Ruo is not surprised, when Queen Chunyuan was pregnant, the emperor was also like this, what is unusual.

After slowing down, An Lingrong raised some strength to deal with the emperor: "Your Majesty, the concubine hasn't seen Xia Chang for a few days, I don't know how she is now?" The concubine wanted to see her. ”

"She eats a lot, and the people are getting more and more round, and she doesn't move out much every day, and I look at her belly, which is bigger than when Concubine Qi was pregnant with the third elder brother." The emperor just went to see Xia Dongchun a few days ago, but he remembered clearly, "The queen had previously detained her to eat, and she was almost hungry, so she could only eat it, and she wanted to raise the child very strongly." ”

An Lingrong's eyes flashed slightly, and he chuckled: "The day after tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, the concubine will take a leave from the emperor, so she won't go to the palace night banquet, just go to see Xia Chang here, can you?" She took the emperor's hand and was slightly coquettish.

The emperor didn't follow it, and told Fen Ruo to follow closely and let people carry the sedan chair over, so as not to suffer the cold.

With the emperor's permission, An Lingrong breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise he would have to find another excuse to block the queen's mouth, tired and panicked.

It's Chinese New Year's Eve in the blink of an eye.

The Queen Mother's health is much better, and it is rare to attend the banquet, and the King of Guojun is also in the table, and the Queen Mother talks about the trip to Bashu: "Erchen went to the ancient plank road of Jiange Zitong, Li Bing's Dujiangyan, and Du Fu's Huanhua residence. Hearing the Queen Mother talk about the Thousand Buddha Rocks, she said, "The sons know that the emperor has a Buddhist mind, and he has already worshiped the emperor one by one." "All are docile, without the slightest hint of wolf ambition.

The Queen Mother chuckled: "It's hard for you, a piece of filial piety." The smile is meaningful, containing too much deep meaning, "Shu Dao is difficult to go to the blue sky, you have worked this trip." "Let go of King Guojun, the Queen Mother looked at Concubine Hua again, such a dazzling gold, she couldn't ignore it if she wanted to," Concubine Hua's clothes are good, although the mourning family has bad eyes, they all feel dazzling. ”

Everyone's eyes looked at Concubine Hua in unison.

Concubine Hua smiled: "The queen mother rewarded the step, and the concubine thought that she had to have some good clothes to complement each other, so she asked the embroidery courtyard to make a few new ones." "It is said that it is an embroidery courtyard, but in fact, it is still made by Zhenbao Zhai outside the palace, and the cost is three points more than the one in Qingyin Pavilion last time.

"What kind of clothes and what kind of jewelry, the silk flowers of Concubine Hua's hairpin in this palace are also worth a lot." The queen deliberately pointed out that Concubine Hua's jewelry was also expensive and extraordinary.

Concubine Hua didn't feel that there was anything wrong with the queen's words, but she showed off vigorously: "The silk flowers in the palace hairpins are made of silk, although they are beautiful but easy to perish, and the concubines are made of gold threads densely woven with precious stones." While speaking, she also glanced at the emperor twice, and when she saw him looking over, she couldn't help but be even more proud. Although it is frugal, what man doesn't want his woman to sit on the side and be glamorous and fight for his face? Hearing the queen's words accusing her of spending a lot, Concubine Hua said in a cold tone and choked, "The concubine's family has some subsidies, so you don't have to spend money in the palace." ”

"It's good to have a good family like Concubine Hua, so you don't have to live tightly with the monthly silver." The queen said with a chuckle, and Yu Guang caught a glimpse of the emperor and the queen mother's faces sank, and she stopped talking.

Concubine Hua heard the queen's ill intentions and said with a smile: "No matter how good the concubine's family is, it is also appreciated by the emperor." ”

"Nian Qianyao is just such a sister as you, naturally I reward him, and he will make it up to you." The emperor said lightly, and the queen mother sat aside, and only sneered when she heard the words.

Seeing the Queen Mother's impatience, Zhuxi hurriedly found an excuse to let the Queen Mother leave the table first.

Cao Qinmo sat in his place, looking at the Queen Mother who was slowly leaving the banquet, and his heart trembled. I never noticed these details before, but now I jumped out of Concubine Hua's circle and looked at Concubine Hua as an outsider, I only felt that every word and every word she said was stepping on the emperor's bottom line, and she didn't feel that she was wrong at all. Now the emperor pursues frugality, not only in the harem, even if Concubine Hua's expenses come from the Nian family, it can't cover up her extravagant and wasteful behavior! What's more, he also told the emperor clearly that the Nian family acted contrary to the emperor, and the entire Nian family was huge.

Cao Qinmo patted her chest with palpitations, and suddenly felt that it was the right decision to fall to An Lingrong, even if An Lingrong didn't help her to seal the concubine in the end, she drew a clear line with Concubine Hua, with her own ability, she may not be able to fight to climb to a high position by herself - just An Lingrong told her about Huan Yixiang, so that she could see the form clearly, and Cao Qinmo also admitted her feelings and wrote it down.

Who! Who! Who is so disobedient and rewarded! I don't want to add moreT^T......
