"What's the matter? Hurry up and come to Imperial Doctor Xuan!" Xu Lianyi said in a loud voice.

Ruan Xiaohong knelt down in front of Xu Lianyi: "Queen Qiyu, just now I went back to the palace with Sister Jingyuan, Sister Jingyuan accidentally fell on the way, but she kept saying that it was done by the concubine, and the concubine was wronged!"

"There's no one else next to me, and if it weren't for you, it would be me who bumped into it myself. Qiao Jingyuan said indignantly.

......

The two of you argued word by word, and Xu Lianyi's brain hurt when they quarreled, "You," pointed to Qiao Yindi: "Since you came with the two of her, you can tell me what's going on." ”

"Yes, sis. Qiao Yindi looked at Ruan Xiaohong in embarrassment: "The concubine saw and saw Ruan Guiren pushing Sister Jingyuan, so she ......."

Ruan Xiaohong's eyes widened in disbelief, "Niangniang, it's not like this, it's ......"

"Okay!" Xu Lianyi raised her forehead: "Since there are human and physical evidence, Ruan Guiren, you will be grounded for three months, face the wall and think about the past!"

"Niangniang!" Qiao Jingyuan didn't expect Xu Lianyi to let Ruan Xiaohong go so easily, and she was dissatisfied.

Xu Lianyi looked at Qiao Jingyuan: "Today is the first day of your official canonization, you all have to do it yourself, all of you retreat." Huiyu, go back with the nobles. ”

"Yes, sis. Huiyu put the unwilling Qiao Jingyuan in a soft sedan chair and immediately sent her back, no longer letting her say anything.

"Lianyi!" Xu Lianyi looked up and saw Mu Lanji standing at the door, and hurriedly stood up and greeted him.

The two held hands and walked in affectionately: "Why are you free today? Don't say hello in advance, see me here is a mess, let you laugh." ”

Mu Lanyi held Xu Lianyi's hand back: "I'm here for this today." Actually, I was also in the Imperial Garden, and I really saw it, it was Qiao Jingyuan who deliberately fell on his own, and he forced himself to rely on that Ruan nobleman. ”

"Are you also there?" Xu Lianyi sighed: "I also suspect that Jing Yuan did it herself, but Qiao Yindi was on the side to help, and she had to ban Ruan Guiren's feet, so I will release her now." ”

Mu Lanji stopped Xu Lianyi: "Are you stupid? they will go with them, just save your heart, let's just sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight!"

"That's it," Xu Lianyi paused, and a fine light flashed in her eyes: "Then I'll go and add fire again!"

Mu Lanji nodded: "The son can be taught!"

After bidding farewell to Mulan, Xu Lianyi ordered the witty words to go to Qiao Jingyuan with things.

"Hey, don't move. Xu Lianyi pressed Qiao Jingyuan's body to get up and salute, "You and my sister don't have to be polite." ”

Qiao Jingyuan was teary-eyed and bowed his head silently. Xu Lianyi sighed: "Jing Yuan, are you blaming your sister for not severely punishing Ruan Xiaohong for giving you anger?"

"The concubine didn't dare. Qiao Jingyuan bit her lower lip and spoke gently.

Xu Lianyi gently stroked Qiao Jingyuan's forehead: "You and I are cousins and sisters, and now that you are also in the palace to serve Your Highness, I should take more care of you in my senses, but it's just ......."

Xu Lianyi slowed down, patted her chest and said with difficulty: "It's just that you entered the palace at the same time as her, although your position is higher than her, but after all, she is the daughter of the secretary of the military department, and her father is extremely trusted by the emperor, even I have to give her three points." What's more, you?"

After finishing speaking, Xu Lianyi turned her head and her shoulders trembled slightly: "It's my sister who is incompetent and can't protect my sister, you, don't blame me!"

Qiao Jingyuan looked at Xu Lianyi's heavy back, his subordinates didn't feel the force, and the fine silk was caught and folded: "Ruan Xiaohong!"

"Mother, the slave has something unknown. In the morning, Cui'er served Qiao Yindi to freshen up and asked: "Then Qiao Jingyuan and Ruan Xiaohong are the new palace concubines, although Ruan Xiaohong is a nobleman, her father is the secretary of the military department. And that Qiao Jingyuan is not only the queen's sister, but also the position is comparable to you, why did you ...... yesterday?"

Qiao Yindi interrupted Cui'er: "Are you trying to ask me why I want to get involved in this matter, and help Qiao Jingyuan instead of Ruan Xiaohong?"

Cui'er nodded, looking puzzled.

Qiao Yindi played with the phoenix hairpin in her hand: "I am from a humble background, walking in this palace is weak, although the emperor has a little favor for me, I am still low and small in front of the queen, this time the newcomer enters the palace, I naturally have to attract people to my side, otherwise it will be difficult to compete with the queen on my own." ”

Cui'er opened her mouth to ask something, "Although Qiao Jingyuan is the queen's family, she may not be of the same heart and mind as the queen, and the daughter of the concubine is a clan sister, Xu Lianyi has a little bad feeling in her heart!"

As he spoke, his expression was dazed: "Look at Ruan Xiaohong's little cheap hooves again, she thinks she is the concubine of the secretary of the Ministry of War, her eyes are above the top, she regarded me like nothing yesterday, and she rushed to the queen as soon as she was promoted, and she didn't weigh how much she weighed!"

"So Niangniang chose to woo Qiao Jingyuan instead of Ruan Xiaohong?"

"Not bad. Qiao Yindi nodded, "Look, Qiao Jingyuan will definitely come over before dark today, after all, I have helped her a lot!"

Just after lunch, someone from the palace reported that Qiao Jingyuan came to visit with a gift, and Qiao Yindi wiped her mouth with the handkerchief in Cui'er's hand: "Go and please come in." ”

As soon as Qiao Jingyuan came in, he gave a big salute to Qiao Yindi, "Thank you sister for speaking up yesterday, my sister is not very grateful, and I came to visit my sister today." ”

Qiao Yindi pulled her up: "Sister, what are you doing, although I am a few years older than you, but my position is the same, I really can't afford your gift!"

Qiao Jingyuan got up, grabbed Qiao Yindi's hand and cried: "My sister only found out yesterday that the people in the palace are really so sinister, and I really don't feel good in my heart." ”

Qiao Yindi almost laughed out loud when she saw her like this, who didn't know what happened yesterday, and she was still pretending to be stupid with me here, I was really stupid!

With such a discouragement in her heart, she didn't show it at all, she just didn't know her small movements yesterday, and gently patted the back of Qiao Jingyuan's hand: "Who says it's not, even after I have been in this palace for so long, I always feel that I am out of place in this palace, you are new to the palace, I understand everything I think in my heart, I understand everything!"

Speaking of emotion, he wiped his tears with a handkerchief: "It's just that these are not big deals, and there is a more urgent thing in front of you that needs to be done." ”

Hearing this, Qiao Jingyuan stopped his movements and asked, "Please also ask my sister to show me clearly!"

"Speaking of the bottom, you and I are both the emperor's women, the emperor's mind is more worthy of our understanding, the emperor is happy, are you afraid that you will be bullied without grace?"

Qiao Jingyuan hurriedly said: "Please also ask my sister to show the way!"

"Today is the first day of your entry into the palace, according to the ancestral system, a family banquet will be held tonight, and the emperor will definitely attend. Qiao Yindi said quietly: "The emperor likes purple the most and loves to eat hawthorn cake the most." ”

Qiao Jingyuan was overjoyed suddenly, thinking that he knew something amazing: "Thank you sister so much, there is a hawthorn tree in the garden on the east side of the imperial garden, I must behave well and let the emperor remember me!"

Qiao Yindi touched Qiao Jingyuan's face with a smile on her face: "Then I will congratulate my sister in advance on winning the Holy Grace!"

"Sister Xie, that sister will retire first. As he spoke, he hurried to the East Garden with the maid.

As soon as Qiao Jingyuan went out, the smile on Qiao Yindi's face disappeared, and she clapped her hands in disgust: "Idiot, that purple and hawthorn cake is Xu Lianyi's favorite thing, I want to see how you perform at today's family banquet!"

Qiao Jingyuan almost took off half of the hawthorn in the garden, and as soon as he came back, he buried himself in the kitchen, and only made a plate of acceptable hawthorn cake after an afternoon, and when he heard the palace maid coming to urge, he knew that he was about to go to the banquet, and hurriedly rummaged through the cabinets to find purple clothes.

"What about the purple crape myrtle dress I made last time?"

"Niangniang, you never wash purple, didn't you order you to lock it in the storeroom?" replied the palace maid resignedly.

Qiao Jingyuan glared at her: "Don't get it quickly! Watch your head if you miss the hour!"

Finally cleaned up, calculated the time, the palace banquet was almost started, Qiao Jingyuan trotted all the way over, took a deep breath at the bottom of the steps, and slowly walked up with his hair in the bun, seeing Mu Yunting smiled shyly, Ying Ying bowed: "The concubine participates in the emperor, and the emperor is safe." ”

Mu Yunting smiled indifferently: "Jieyu's clothes are good, get up and sit down!"

"Thank you, Emperor!" Qiao Jingyuan got up and motioned to the palace maid to bring her the plate: "Your Majesty, the concubine heard that the emperor likes to eat pastries, and when the concubine passed by the imperial garden, she found that the hawthorn was ripe, so she dared to make some hawthorn cakes and present them to the emperor." ”

"Oh?" Murong Ting glanced at Xu Lianyi: "Jieyu really has a heart, come here, give me a seat, and sit next to me." ”

Qiao Jingyuan was overjoyed, and thanked him and ran to sit down: "Your Majesty, you can taste it first, and see if what the concubine makes is still to your taste?"

Mu Yunting picked up a small piece and praised it after a while: "It melts in your mouth, Jieyu's cooking skills are very good." ”

Turned his head and picked up a small piece to Xu Lianyi: "Your favorite hawthorn cake, don't you want to taste it?"

Xu Lianyi looked ahead, and turned her head when she heard the words: "Your Majesty, this is your hawthorn cake, which my sister specially made for you!"

"What's yours and mine, what's not yours is yours, besides," Mu Yunting leaned close to Xu Lianyi's ear and said softly: "If you don't like it, how can I like this little daughter's things!"

Xu Lianyi's face turned slightly red, and she opened her mouth to take the hawthorn cake in her mouth, Mu Yunting smiled heartily, and Qiao Jingyuan's eyes were red.

"Jing Yuan, your hawthorn cake is very much in line with the heart of the palace," after a pause, Xu Lianyi continued: "The clothes are also good-looking, and they happen to be the purple that the palace likes." ”

The words changed: "Jieyu is late on the first day of entering the palace today, so many of us are waiting for you, what a big shelf!"

Qiao Jingyuan was shocked by the queen's sudden attack, and didn't know how to deal with it for a while: "I, I, I ......" but couldn't say anything after a few words in a row.

Xu Lianyi glanced at it and sneered lightly: "If you are late, you will be late, and you will not complain to the palace, Jieyu can't tolerate anyone else except in the eyes of the emperor?"

The atmosphere suddenly dropped to freezing, Qiao Jingyuan stiffened, obviously scared stupid, Mu Yunting took Xu Lianyi's hand after drinking the wine in the cup, and smiled at everyone: "You don't have to be so nervous, the queen is losing her temper with me, blame me for snatching her hawthorn cake!"

The tense atmosphere disappeared in the play, and only Qiao Jingyuan sat with his shoulders slumped.
