On this day, Miao promised to have a dispute with Qi Guiren when he asked for peace, Qi Guiren was so angry that he couldn't raise his hand and poured the tea on his head, Miao promised to be angry, and pulled her head flower on the spot, and the two of them twisted into a ball, and looked stunned by a group of concubines.

When the queen came out, the two of them were disheveled and their sideburns were messy, you pulled my hair, I pulled your Longhua, no one let go, and they were so angry that they almost had a head attack, and in a fit of anger, they grounded Qi Guiren and Miao Promise, and temporarily settled for three or two days.

"Suyun, where's my clothes?" After Fang Chunyi returned to Yanxi Palace, he couldn't suppress the excitement on his face, "Go and let people inquire about the emperor's whereabouts tonight, and hurry up and prepare everything." Finally, she looked at the weather again, "The weather is good today, and the moonlight must be beautiful at night." ”

Su Yun suddenly got busy: "The little master hurriedly went to burn incense and bathe, and the slave maid went to prepare clothes and jewelry." Then he instructed Su Yu, "Yu'er, you go and inquire, which little lord palace the emperor is going to tonight, you keep the hour, pinch it and come back to say." Then he arranged for the little palace maids to take things in a loud voice.

Fang Chunyi suppressed his trembling hands with excitement, and exhaled deeply, silently reciting in his heart the situation that had been analyzed thousands of times.

Now in this palace, Concubine Duan is sick and weak and has to take care of Princess Wenyi, Concubine Qi has lost her color and cannot have a sacred heart, Concubine Jing and Concubine Hui are busy with the affairs of the six palaces, Xin is often in obscurity, although Concubine Rong and Concubine Wan are quite graceful, but one has to take care of the two princesses, and the other often serves in front of the palace of nourishing the heart, and does not have much effort to serve the emperor.

Now, the queen mother has punished Qi Guiren and Miao agreed, Fang Chunyi is not stupid, she naturally knows that this is the queen creating an opportunity for her, if she doesn't grasp it, then she can't complain about others.

Fang Chunyi immersed himself in the warm water, raised his hand and gestured twice for the blessing dance, stopped in mid-air and folded into a fist, as if he was holding something, and the firmness in his eyes became more and more intense.

The most likely thing for the emperor to go tonight is Broken Yuxuan, Broken Yuxuan is close to the Imperial Garden, just so that she can play, she has been practicing this dance for four months, and she has practiced each movement thousands of times, which angle is the most beautiful, which movement is the most difficult, she knows very well.

"The moonlight is so beautiful tonight." An Lingrong stood in the courtyard and looked up at the near-perfect moon, "It must be beautiful to dance under such a moonlight." ”

"The moon is light and the wind is light, and the scenery of the imperial garden is picturesque, why don't you go for a walk?" Cuiyin said with a smile, "The emperor turned over the sign of Concubine Niangniang tonight, maybe Niangniang can still meet the emperor by chance." ”

"Someone has carefully prepared to meet the emperor by chance, and this palace can't steal her limelight." An Lingrong stroked the wishful hairpin between the sideburns and chuckled, "It is said that three women are in one play, and it is not so easy for her to reap the benefits of the fisherman." Cuiyin, accompany the palace to the imperial garden, wait for what you see, come back and say to Miao, lest she feel bored. ”

Cuiyin understood what An Lingrong meant after a little thought, and leaned over.

In the Zhongchun Pavilion, Miao Ke sat in front of the dresser with a huff, looking at herself in the mirror with a good appearance, holding the green daisy to carefully trace her eyebrows, and smearing the clear rouge, her green face suddenly revealed a little charming, she touched her face, looked at it intoxicated for a while, and then smacked suddenly: "Qi Guiren's sassy fox, you know how to hook the emperor, hum, I thought I could have any ability, but she is a yellow-haired girl!" ”

The peach who served on the side flatteringly gave Miao Kexin hairpins: "The little master has now flown up the branches and become a phoenix, and it is important to hold the emperor's heart, and what is the anger of the nobles of Qi." The slave and maid have to be remembered by the little master, so that they can follow them to this Forbidden City to have a look, otherwise they don't know how long they will stay in the workshop! After a pause, she said again, "I thought it would be Sister Fu who entered the palace this time, but I didn't expect the master to order the little master to enter the palace first." ”

"Not only did I grasp this opportunity, but also got this earth-shattering wealth, I won't let go easily." Miao Kexin raised her delicate face and smiled openly, making her face, which was not very outstanding, bright and beautiful, "It is said that crying children have milk to eat." Qi Guiren now has a face, I have a trouble with her, the emperor will always look at me a few more times, and when I have a child, I will gain a firm foothold in this palace, and then go back and slowly clean her up. At the end, he sighed again, "It's too much trouble today, I didn't expect the queen's temper to be so gentle and punished so harshly as soon as she made a move, and she was grounded for three days, don't let others take advantage of the loophole." ”

Miao Ke gritted his teeth angrily, and there was nothing he could do for a while.

Taohong glanced at Miao Kexin's face, and said cautiously: "Prince Dun has sent someone to ask again, so that the little master can quickly spread the news." The master's meaning is that Prince Dun must be stabilized for the time being. ”

Miao Kexin frowned, didn't say anything, and said a few words about the news he had found out when he went to bed last night: "Just go and tell Prince Dun that the emperor still entrusts him with a heavy responsibility, and he is not suspicious." ”

"Yes." Rosé bowed and stepped back.

After sending the news, Taohong was running into An Lingrong and Cuiyin coming back from the Imperial Garden, and heard An Lingrong say something "It's really good-looking, don't talk about the emperor, even the palace is thrilled", she couldn't help but stop, and watched An Lingrong enter the dormitory from a distance, and she went up to talk to Cuiyin.

"Aunt Cuiyin, where did you come from so late?" Peach leaned affectionately to Cuiyin's side.

Cuiyin sorted out the expression on her face for a while, and then turned to look at her: "It's a peach girl, it's nothing, Concubine Rong Niangniang ate two more bites for dinner, I accompanied me to the imperial garden and walked two steps, who knew that at the corner, I met Zhen Guiren dancing on the Qinfang Bridge, so I stopped and looked at it twice, it was really like a fairy in the Moon Palace." She smiled, told her in detail about the scene she had just seen, and finally said, "After the noble man finished jumping, Niangniang originally wanted to go up to say hello, but she saw the emperor standing under the bridge from a distance, so she didn't go over to disturb. ”

"Noble man?" Taohong's face stiffened for a moment, and she thought for a while before she remembered, "Is it the one from Yanxi Palace?" ”

"yes." Cuiyin deliberately said, "Zhen Guiren used to be very favored. ”

Peach's face twisted uncontrollably, recalling Fang Chunyi's appearance, it was the same tender face as her own little master, but it was a little less charming and a little more innocent, it was a very cute and non-aggressive face, if she was favored, wouldn't it block the road to wealth and nobility of her own little master?

Seeing that Taohong was thoughtful, Cuiyin's task was completed, and she went back to An Lingrong to return to her.

An Lingrong smiled and loosened her bun, smeared her usual gelatin, and didn't say anything, but Cuiyin looked like she wanted to say something, she couldn't help but look up, and said lightly: "If you have anything to say, just say it, don't hide it." ”

"Niangniang has been estranged a lot with Guan Concubine Niangniang recently." Cui Yin opened his mouth and said, "Tonight in the Imperial Garden, it is clear that you will reach Broken Yuxuan two more steps, and Niangniang will not go in." It is common for sisters to quarrel and quarrel with each other, and the mother and the concubine enter the palace together, the relationship is extraordinary, and it has been cold for so many months, and it is enough. ”

An Lingrong paused slightly, lowered his eyes, and shook his head with a wry smile: "My sister and I can't go back." ”

Zhen Huan is determined to ask for the emperor's true love in the palace, An Lingrong persuaded her several times, she listened to it at the moment, and then she will forget it, so she doesn't listen to people's persuasion, An Lingrong doesn't want to be disgusted anymore, just like Concubine Duan said, a person who insists on pretending to be asleep can't wake up, she is really tired of persuasion.

Last time, it was because of Zhu Qing's sowing discord, but this time, it was Zhen Huan who was jealous.

An Lingrong sighed heavily, maybe from the beginning, she shouldn't have promised Zhen Huan's sentence of "swearing as sisters", so that now, the relationship is deeper than in the previous life, and it is difficult to give up.

She admitted that she was close to Zhen Huan in this life for the long-term and to find a backer for herself who could laugh to the end, but gradually, she also paid her sincerity and sincerity, befriended Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang, supported each other, and relied on each other, which made her feel the warmth she had never felt. For this relationship, she has done too much, or perhaps, it is precisely because she has done too much that Zhen Huan has no sense of crisis and values the emperor's love more and more.

However, jumping out of this circle and looking at it again, An Lingrong suddenly found that this life is no longer the same.

In the past, the emperor treated her sincerely, loved her and protected her to the extent that Zhen Huan was jealous and unwilling, and then An Bihuai was repeatedly promoted, from an eight-rank petty official all the way to a third-grade minister, and An Kang, the queen mother was quite fond of her, and she herself had already sat on the throne of the first palace, and no one dared to underestimate her anymore.

In this way, why does An Lingrong need to find someone else as a backer? She is a backer herself.

After thinking about this clearly, she became more and more indifferent to Zhen Huan.

In her previous life, An Lingrong had always been ashamed of Zhen Huan because she felt that she had ruined Zhen Huan's life that should have been stable, but in her first life, An Lingrong found that Zhen Huan's life should have gone through those ups and downs. Looks, family background, talents, grace, she has everything, how can people living in the clouds know what it would be like to fall into the quagmire? How can someone who hasn't struggled in the quagmire climb to the top? Since Zhen Huan is destined to go through that, why should she bother to stop her.

Seeing An Lingrong stunned, Cui Yin consciously said the wrong thing and stopped talking.

After Fang Chunyi regained his favor with a moon blessing dance, he monopolized the favor for half a month, that is, Qi Gui and Miao Kexin did not share too much favor after they lifted the grounding.

After competing for favor with each of them for a few back and forth, Miao Kexin had a slight advantage, and Fang Chunyi was evenly matched, overwhelming the Qi nobles, and grabbed the ticket to the Old Summer Palace for summer vacation.

This year, there are not many people who the emperor took to the Old Summer Palace, because the queen mother was still sick and should not move, Shen Meizhuang asked to stay in the palace to take care of it, and An Lingrong also stayed in the palace on the grounds of relying on Huang Mamu during this period of Ankang, in addition, Concubine Duan was not on the list, and the nobles of Qi were taken away by Miao Kexin, so they also stayed in the palace.

Therefore, in addition to the queen, only Concubine Qi Jingfei, Zhen Huan, Fang Chunyi, Miao Kexin, and Xin Chang were there this year.

"It's rare to have such a quiet time." Shen Meizhuang was free, and came to Weiyang Palace and An Lingrong to gossip, "I can't remember clearly, when was the last time I was so idle, every day when I opened my eyes, there were a bunch of things waiting to be dealt with, I didn't know before, it turned out that there were so many things in this huge harem, small, cumbersome, endless." As he spoke, he shook his head and sighed.

"My sister is too tired." An Lingrong poured her a cup of tea, "I advise my sister that appropriate delegation of power can sometimes bring power together." ”

Shen Meizhuang raised his eyebrows slightly: "What do you mean by this?" ”

"Those who are on the throne, you don't have to do everything yourself, my sister will know it by looking at the emperor." An Lingrong said slowly, "Knowing people and making good use of them is what those in power should really do, if my sister can reach the level of not using suspicious people and employing people, maybe she won't be as tired as she is now." ”

Shen Meizhuang was thoughtful.

An Ling Rongfu said again: "As for how to win people's hearts and promote henchmen, you don't need me and my sister to say more, right?" "Shen Meizhuang, as the daughter of the Shen family, must have learned this.

"In that case, it's better to take this opportunity to clarify the people in the palace." Shen Meizhuang's eyes slowly lit up, "I only cared about doing things before, but I have always neglected people, not because there are people, but because there are people who have things, I have put the cart before the horse." Rong'er, thank you for reminding me. ”

"I'm just a bystander." An Lingrong smiled.

Shen Meizhuang spent a full ten days sorting out the roster of palace people in the harem, and it didn't matter if it was checked, it was a big problem.

"I've checked carefully, these people's household registration and slave registration are not registered, and I don't know which year they entered the palace, although they are all inconspicuous positions, but there are too many, and there are three hundred and thirty-two people in total." Shen Meizhuang spread out the roster for An Lingrong to see, and took out a booklet to record these unknown people, "I have only heard of selling officials and lords, but I have not heard of selling slaves and maids, which is really ridiculous." ”

An Lingrong's eyes flashed slightly, and he looked up at Shen Meizhuang: "Sister, have you ever thought that these people may not want to come in by themselves, but someone arranged for them to come in?" ”

At this point, the Mei Huanrong combination flew solo and sprinkled flowers~
