Chapter 006: Green Apricot Wine
Xiao Yi didn't ask anything in Xiao Ling's mouth after all, he just sighed, looking at the imperial brother who was squatting in the corner of the cell, the man who used to guide the country on the battlefield, the man who used to stand side by side with Ye Tingcheng, had lost his former demeanor and became embarrassed.
Turning around indifferently, Xiao Yi left the prison, no matter what the relationship between Mu Qingchen and Ye Qingcheng was, after all, it was a step too late, he didn't have time to rush back to save Ye Qingcheng back then, and now, he didn't have time to save Mu Qingchen.
However, he didn't know that the woman he had been thinking about was in the Qingyi Garden of the Heavenly Star Kingdom Palace, with the two maids beside him, using the green apricot wine that he had taken over with grace.
These green apricots were picked by Wanxin from the apricot grove behind the Empress Zhong Yuling's Yixiang Palace, naturally they were not stolen, even if Wanxin was given a hundred guts, she did not dare to steal things in the palace of the queen's mother, she told Zhong Yuling about the matter as it was, and only picked it after getting Zhong Yuling's permission.
When she walked into the house, what she saw was Qingchen moving a chair and sitting by the window with sunlight to read a book, and the gentle warm spring sun sprinkled on the woman's body, shrouded in a layer of brilliant and dazzling brilliance.
"Wanxin girl, you have to bring those green apricots here. Qingchen heard the footsteps, slowly raised his head, smiled at the strange woman he had never met, and spoke.
Wanxin looked at the woman in front of her, her eyebrows were picturesque, her pupils were like autumn water, and she was like obsidian in the night sky, her lips were not red, and her fair cheeks were slightly camel-colored.
"Auntie...... The girl was polite. Wanxin saw Qingchen smiling at her, so she immediately blushed and stammered a little.
"Okay, Miss Wanxin, you have already met our girl, wait for the girl's green apricot wine to be brewed another day, and I will also give you a pot for you to taste. Zhan Yu said this, and the implication was already the meaning of sending off guests.
Wanxin nodded, thanked him, and was sent out by Shuyu, and when he went out, he glanced back at Qingchen, and remembered Qingchen's appearance deeply in his mind, so that he could go to Yixiang Palace to report to the queen.
"Girl, is this appropriate?" Huai Jin said with some disapproval as she looked at Qingchen's face.
"In the two lives before and after, I am most familiar with this face, even if I become Mu Qingchen, I still have to tell myself all the time that I am the daughter of the Ye family, Ye Qingcheng, not the pampered Jade Hook princess Mu Qingchen. Qingchen sighed, walked to the dresser next to him, and took off the disguised clothes on his face.
Mu Qingchen was originally the princess of the Tianxing Kingdom, and there were not a few palace maids and eunuchs in the palace who had seen her, so she couldn't show her true face, so she pretended to be Ye Tingcheng and fooled Wanxin.
This disguise technique was learned by her with Zhao Yan, in the past, in the Yi Wangfu, every time she left the mansion late at night, Xiao Yi would let Zhao Yan come over to replace her, once Zhao Yan did not hide her disguise, so she let her see it, and also learned this skill. Although the kung fu is shallow, it is enough to deceive Wanxin.
"But when this face spreads, the queen will know that Ye Qingcheng lives in this house, and I don't know what else to think of to deal with you. Huai Jin said with some concern.
The matter between Mu Qingjue and Ye Qingcheng is known to everyone in Tianxing Ningyue, and no one knows about it. It is said that when Mu Qingjue was still the crown prince, he traveled in micro-suits and came to Ningyue Country, fell in love with Ye Tingcheng at first sight, and was shocked by the heavens.
The letter of state was sent to Ningyue Kingdom, but it was vetoed by a sentence from Emperor Ningyue.
Because Emperor Ning Yue said: "Ye Chengcheng is my daughter-in-law. ”
Since then, Ye Qingcheng has become a hidden pain in Mu Qingjue's heart, both love and hate, love her noble atmosphere and unparalleled wisdom, but hate her beauty and talent, which do not belong to him, and will be used against him.
"Everyone in the world knows that Ye Tingcheng is dead, no matter how smart Zhong Yuling is, she will not know that I am Ye Tingcheng, at most, she will think that I am a stand-in that Mu Qingjue found that looks similar to Ye Tingcheng, don't worry about it. Qingchen said very indifferently, "Qingxing has been delivered, and it is ready to start brewing, whether I can go out or not depends on these wines." ”
"I'm going to prepare. Hearing this, Huai Jin nodded, turned around and walked out.
Qingchen silently removed the makeup on her face alone, sat in front of the mirror, looked at herself in the mirror, and her thoughts drifted to a distant place, which made her a little stunned for a while.
Even if she wants to retire from the world, she will not stay here and become a bird in Mu Qingjue's cage, waiting for the world to settle down, and then give her a reasonable way out. What's more, she still has a lot of things to do, and when she finishes what she needs to do, she will naturally find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, watch the flowers bloom and fall in front of the window, and watch the clouds roll in the sky.
It is not Qingchen who can make wine, but Huaijin. Because she followed the Nankong God medical drama and medical skills, she learned the method of making medicinal wine, although ordinary wine and medicinal wine have different effects and different effects, but the brewing methods are interconnected, so Qingchen wants to come to these green apricots, which is to make wine for Huaijin.
Huai Jin's movements were very fast, and with the help of Shuyu and those palace maids who were on errands in Qingyi Garden, Qingxing was quickly cleaned, put into the jar step by step, sealed up, and buried underneath.
Mu Qingjue naturally knew all this that Qingchen had done, but he didn't know that Qingchen was making these green apricot wines for other purposes, so he just thought that Qingchen was just tossing around with nothing to do.
In Mu Qingjue's memory, Qingchen is still the little girl who does everything according to her mood, and she doesn't realize that Qingchen is no longer the Qingchen she used to be, just like Xiao Yi said, everything she says and does has her own purpose.
After Wanxin left Qingyi Garden, she went directly to Yixiang Palace, and told the queen everything she had seen.
"Hongu was looking for her, and she came. A smile appeared on the corner of Zhong Yuling's mouth, muttered in a low voice, spoke again, and said to Wanxin, "You go back, carefully keep an eye on Qingyi Yuan's movements, and you will not be able to benefit you." ”
After saying this, Zhong Yuling glanced at Mama Yan beside her, Mama Yan nodded knowingly, took out a bag of broken silver that had been prepared a long time ago, and stuffed it into Wanxin's hand.
"Niangniang, the slave maid does things for the mother, it is natural and righteous, and I don't dare to accept these. When Wanxin saw it, she immediately knelt down and spoke.
After listening to Wanxin's words, Zhong Yuling's eyes flashed with a look of satisfaction, and after nodding slightly, she spoke again: "This palace tells you to take it, this is a reward for you, and it is convenient for you to do things." ”
Wan thought about it, what the queen mother said was right, she wanted to stare at Qingyi Garden, and she wanted to help the queen mother inquire about the news, no one else would help casually if there was no benefit, so she stretched out her hand, took the bag of broken silver from Yan Mama's hand, put it away, got up and retreated.
When I walked to the door, I saw that Concubine Qing Niangniang was accompanied by two palace maids, who entered from the outside, walked to the main hall of Yixiang Palace, and saluted the queen:
"The concubines see the queen mother. ”
"Concubine Qing doesn't have to be polite, why do you want to sit here in the palace today?" Zhong Yuling asked as if unintentionally, her eyes swept over Concubine Qing's face, carelessly.
None of the women in this palace are fuel-efficient lamps, especially Zhong Yuling, who has been trained according to the standards of palace concubines and queens since she was a child, and her mind is even more unpredictable.
"The concubine has been in the palace for a long time, and she has not come to the mother to ask for a visit, it is really rude, there is nothing to do today, and the spring outside is just right, so the concubine thought about inviting the mother to go to the garden together. Concubine Qing spoke.
Zhong Yuling's eyes finally fell on Concubine Qing's face, the face of a beautiful embryo, but there was a hint of charm between her eyebrows, so she couldn't help but sigh, in the end, it was a dancing girl from the song and dance workshop, and there was always such a smell of wind and dust on her body, but she didn't know what the emperor liked about her, and despite the opposition of the courtiers, she took a dusty woman into the palace and sealed the concubine.
"Bengong is very tired today, so I won't accompany my sister to visit the garden. However, I heard that there are a few begonias in Qingyi Garden, and if Sister Qingfei is free, she can go and see it. The queen said, but she rejected Concubine Qing's proposal.
Concubine Qing's mind turned slightly, and she understood what the queen meant, and after saying a few polite words, she retreated, walked out of Yixiang Palace, and walked towards Qingyi Garden.
"Niangniang, Qingyi Yuan is a forbidden place, the queen mother obviously wants you to trespass on the forbidden land and make a mistake, why are you still going over there?" said the palace maid named Lotus Leaf behind her.
"This palace is just going to see the begonia flowers, and not going to the forbidden place, how can it be considered a mistake?" Qing Concubine smiled, still stubbornly walking forward.
Concubine Qing's whole person, just like her title, is wearing a light blue palace dress, forming a bright color on this spring day when everything is recovering. Green is her favorite color, just like her name, Green Joe.
No matter who lives in Qingyi Garden, no matter what the queen has in mind, she has to take a look, after all, the landlord sent her to Tianxing Kingdom, not to let her become Mu Qingjue's concubine and everything will be fine, and now it is rumored that the Jade Hook Princess Mu Qingchen died in the fire of the Ningyue Palace, but she didn't believe it, because she knew that Mu Qingchen was Ye Qingcheng, such a powerful and powerful person, it was impossible to die so easily.
Therefore, as long as there is anything abnormal in the palace of the Heavenly Star Kingdom, she has to figure it out, quietly wait for the opportunity, and wait for Mu Qingchen to appear again.
A few days ago, she heard that Qingyi Yuan lived a woman who Mu Qingjue loved very much, as beautiful as a fairy, and today she placed someone in Yixiang Palace went to tell her again, Wanxin saw the appearance of the mysterious woman in Qingyi Garden, and after listening carefully, she suddenly realized that the woman was a little similar to Ye Chengcheng.
So, she couldn't help but take a look.
