After Lin Tao left, Su Jin entered the room. At that time, Ling Wanying had just practiced the dance twice and was already sweating profusely. When she saw Su Jin entering the room, she blinked her eyes and held her back and said, "Sister, I usually only dance this dance." I could dance once, but now I can do it twice.”

"This dance shape is indeed good, but I feel unwilling to think that it is actually for..." After Ling Wanying finished speaking, she realized that she was impulsive again. Seeing Su Jin stop smiling, she said: "Ayu, you are like this, I really worried."

Ling Wanying knew that Sister was worried about her facing the emperor alone, and she had just been too relaxed. She was a little annoyed for a moment. She hugged Su Jin and whispered: "I'm sorry, Sister, for making you worry again, but in my heart There are many who would never do this when facing the emperor.

He is the person I love most, and I am here for him. How could I be rude in front of him?When I go to see the queen tomorrow, I will always keep my identity in mind. Thirteen years of planning will never make a mistake on my part. "

Su Jin sighed. She knew that Ling Wanying was not incapable, but her desire for revenge was too urgent. Now she couldn't hold it in anymore, so she whispered: "Patience is the best weapon for the Avengers."

Ling Wanying nodded, left Su Jin's arms, and returned to her usual soft and quiet look. She looked at Su Jin softly, "Qinghe, I want to take a bath."

Su Jin bowed slightly and went out to prepare.

While taking a bath, Ling Wanying looked at her fair skin and exquisite body, thinking that she was not as studious and knowledgeable as her elder sister.

For example, my sister knows a lot about herbal dances to nourish the body and beautify the skin, as well as medicinal baths to cleanse the menstruation and cut the marrow. If my body had not been unable to withstand the medicinal properties, now I would be able to fly over walls and climb walls like my sister. .

The people in Yilan Palace had a good night's sleep. Concubine Shu and others heard that the emperor went to Concubine Rou's Ganquan Palace again. Their hearts were sour, but they had no choice but to do anything.

The next day, Ling Wanying got up early. When Su Jin was dressing her up, she mentioned that Mei Su and An Xuanshi were already waiting outside. Ling Wanying was a little surprised. She glanced at the palace attendants around her and frowned: "Then we have to hurry up. We can't keep the two sisters waiting for a long time."

Qingsu listened and sped up his movements. When he went out, he saw Mei Su and Attendant An Xuan sitting in the hall.

Su Meiren was eating snacks, and An Xuanshi looked at the embroidery pattern in his hand. The palace was very quiet. When they saw Ling Wanying coming out, they both stood up and said hello. Ling Wanying's face was soft, and her voice was as soft as yesterday: "I was slow. Keep the two sisters waiting."

Hearing what Ling Wanying said, Su Mei and An Xuan hurriedly said they didn't dare.

Originally, palace concubines like Su Mei and An Xuanshi, who had both status and sins, were not qualified to go to Fengyi Palace to meet the queen, but today was the day when the queen received the new couple, so the two of them had to go.

Ling Wanying is the head of the palace, so there is a soft sedan chair, but people like Su Mei and An Xuanshi can only walk, but the soft sedan chair is very slow. They know that this is Lan Bin taking care of them, and they can't help but feel warm in their hearts.

On the way, we met Concubine Xian, Concubine An and several newcomers, so when we arrived at Fengyi Palace, it was already late.

As Ling Wanying's personal maid, Su Jin was taken to the side hall to rest. There were many purple-clothed palace people sitting in the side hall. She calculated in her heart and knew that the palace concubine was almost here.

Before entering the palace, she found out that there was a concubine in Duan Li's palace. The palace lords were Concubine Xian of Zhaohe Palace, Concubine Shu of Shun'an Palace, Concubine An of Qixiang Palace, and Concubine Rou of Ganquan Palace. They were all by Duan Li's side when he was in the East Palace. people.

There are two noble concubines under the concubine, including Ling Wanying and the girls from the Qi family, there are three concubines, there are three concubines under the concubines, the newcomers plus the original Shuyi talents and beauties, a total of fifteen, this is not counting the beauties. The official women who were fortunate enough to have no serious status already had 28 concubines.

After Su Jin calculated this, she suddenly recalled Qingsu's complaint when she was at home: "Including the newlyweds and the famous concubines, they are almost thirty. Why did some people in the previous dynasty still say that the emperor's harem is empty? Is it really necessary that the three palaces and six courtyards are empty?" Fill it up, can you really achieve the beauty of three thousand?"

Su Jin was thinking wildly outside, and Ling Wanying was also wandering around in the inner hall. After the ceremony, she thought there would be some kind of confrontation or showdown, but who knew there would be a dagger, but the light was directed at Concubine Rou.

I saw that Concubine Rou was not annoyed by Shu Concubine and Concubine An's eccentric annoyance. She just drank tea with a leisurely expression. However, Concubine Shu and Concubine An were very angry. "My queen, Concubine Rou is sick, but she still allows your majesty to go to her palace." He clearly doesn't care about His Majesty's body. Your Majesty is busy with state affairs. If the dragon's body is damaged, wouldn't it be Sister Roufei's fault?"

Cui Guibi, who had been silent all this time, said, looking at Concubine Rou, whose expression changed slightly, "Your Majesty loves Concubine Rou, and Concubine Rou should also value your body. Such wanton behavior reminds my sister of the past. Madame Butterfly of the North..."

Ling Wanying lowered her eyes, hiding the look in her eyes. The former Madam Butterfly was her great-grandfather's favorite concubine. It was said that Madam Butterfly was originally the sweeper of Taoyuan. She was seen by her great-grandfather who was wandering around in the peach grove, attracting butterflies dancing around her. After arriving, she was granted the title of beauty and moved into Sishui Xuan, a side hall of Ganquan Palace. After that, she was favored all the way and became a concubine without any children. Madam Butterfly suffered from typhoid fever in winter, and her great-grandfather accompanied her every day. However, she also contracted typhoid fever and died before she was forty. Her great-grandmother So he added a rule to the palace rules: if the concubine is sick, she will not be allowed to see her.

But Ling Wanying felt that this palace rule was of no use whether it was added or not. How could the authoritarian emperor be bound by the palace rules?As long as he wants, he can see whoever he wants.

Just like her father, who was willing to abandon the Sixth Palace for the sake of his mother, Ling Wanying did not think about it any further, but listened intently to the voices in the palace.

After Cui Guibi finished speaking, she glanced at Concubine Rou, whose expression changed slightly, and looked at the Queen sitting on her seat, and said seriously: "My dear, Concubine Rou has repeatedly flouted the palace rules. If the new sisters who enter the palace follow suit, then the palace will Isn’t it true that there is chaos in the country? As the mother of the country, the empress should be severely punished."

Before the queen could speak, Concubine Rou snorted coldly, looked at Cui Guibi and said, "Is Cui Guibi comparing your majesty to Emperor Zhou Ping who indulged in petty loves and ignored state affairs?"

"I don't dare. It's just that I was reading history yesterday and saw Madame Butterfly's deeds, and suddenly thought of Sister Roufei. Sister Roufei must not make trouble unreasonably." Cui Guibi looked at Concubine Rou with a tolerant face.

Seeing that Concubine Rou was frustrated, Concubine Shu smiled coldly, "Sister Cui kindly reminds you, Concubine Rou, don't be ungrateful. We all know that Sister Cui is concerned about His Majesty's health, and she is not insinuating anyone." Concubine Shu has a gorgeous appearance and said this The ends of his eyes were raised slightly when he spoke, and he seemed to be in a very comfortable mood.

The Queen sitting on the seat took a sip of tea and said leisurely: "Cui Guibi is right. It is indeed wrong to still receive His Majesty even though Concubine Rou is ill..."

Hearing this, Concubine Shu glanced at Concubine Rou proudly, but heard the queen continue: "But His Majesty did not stay overnight yesterday, and he met Concubine Rou across a screen, so it does not violate the palace rules."

No overnight stay?But the emperor never came out after entering Ganquan Palace. That was...

The tea was sweet in her mouth. The queen thought of the crabapple flowers that the emperor had sent this morning. Her expression remained unchanged and she said: "Yesterday, Xu Cairen from Tingyu Palace was the attendant. I came to see you today, but Your Majesty took pity on Xu Cairen and extended your stay specially. I wish her well today."

Hearing what the queen said, Ling Wanying noticed that Xu Cairen, who entered the palace with them, had not come, and Tingyu Hall was the west side hall of Ganquan Palace. No wonder...

Qi Yuezhen saw Ling Wanying's calm expression beside her, and thought of the rumors in the capital about this young lady from the Zhenguo General's Mansion. She was frail and grew up in the countryside, and fell in love with her cousin at first sight after returning to the capital.

She had dealt with Ling Wanying's sibling sister before. The second young lady of the General's Mansion was not as beautiful and graceful as Ling Wanying, so she never took Ling Wanying of the same age into her eyes.

She didn't know she was careless until the first time she saw her in the draft, and she was also scared, but then she thought that if her cousin was a person obsessed with beauty, her cousin wouldn't be wasting her years in the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple.

Later, when they got along, she saw that Ling Wanying was well-read in poetry and books, and not only had beautiful calligraphy, but also good painting and chess skills. She took a new look at Ling Wanying. Will a beauty with only love in her mind go far in the future?

As if feeling the attention of the people around her, Ling Wanxi raised her eyes slightly and saw Qi Yuezhen, smiling slightly, quite kindly.

Qi Yuezhen also nodded slightly and continued to look at the concubines in front of her. Cui Guibi did not expect that the emperor did not accompany Concubine Rou, but instead welcomed the newcomer who had just entered the palace. She frowned and said: "This is against the rules. …”

When a concubine enters the palace, she has to hang up a red lantern in her bedchamber before she can serve the monarch.

"Sister Cui is too strict about rules. She has been in her prime for only twenty years and already feels like she is old." After Concubine An finished speaking, she stood up and Yingying bowed and said: "Empress, I have been out for a long time today, and I am afraid that the third prince When he woke up crying, he left first."

As soon as the queen nodded in agreement, Concubine An left. Mo Jieyu didn't want to get involved in the fight between several concubines, and she left first on the pretext of being worried about the little princess.

After Concubine An and Mo Jieyu left, the queen also asked everyone to disperse. After leaving Fengyi Palace, the shadowy sight disappeared, and Ling Wanying felt relieved.

Sumei Mei and An Xuanshi looked pale. They had not left Yilan Palace for a long time. They got up early today. When they were in Fengyi Palace, they listened to the quarrels of several concubines. They did not dare to use cakes for fear of being burned by the fire, so My body can't bear it.

Su Meiren only wanted to return to Yilan Palace as soon as possible. Although An Xuanshi was also scared, she did observe all the concubines in the main hall of Fengyi Palace. She thought that among the Lan concubines who were most similar to Rou Fei, she Saw hope.

His Majesty prefers a weak woman like Lan Bin. Lan Bin has eyes like a young deer and a body like a green lotus. She is even better than the soft concubine who just entered the East Palace back then. An Xuanshi is a little excited.

She looked at Ling Wanying in front of her and thought, don't rush, it's not the time yet.

A few steps out of Fengyi Palace, Qi Yuezhen was seen looking at Ling Wanying, her cold eyes seemed to be struggling, and finally she got into the sedan chair and left.

Ling Wanying returned to Yilan Hall and asked Su Mei and An Xuanshi to rest. Qingsu, who had been waiting in the hall, was truly relieved when he saw that Ling Wanying and Su Jin had returned safely.

Aunt Li, who is in charge of the palace, saw this and her eyes darkened. The two maids that Empress Lan Bi brought from her home, Qing Ye was fine, but Qing Su was too out of her mind. She was overjoyed. If Empress Lan Bi was favored in the future, , Qingsu is still like this, it must not work.

But they had just met yesterday, and Empress Lanbin had gone to rest. She had never had a private conversation with Empress Lanbin, and she couldn't grasp the character of her new master, so she didn't mention it.

I don’t know if I have a chance today…

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard the soft voice of Empress Lan Bin: "Aunt Li, I was too tired yesterday and took a rest early. I haven't understood everything in the palace yet. You are an old man in the palace. I wonder if you can answer my questions. .”

After hearing this, Aunt Li immediately became energetic. It is a good thing that the master is motivated!

But Lan Bin's next words immediately made Aunt Li's heart fall to the bottom. She heard Lan Bin say shyly and timidly: "Especially about Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

Aunt Li: ...Look at the spring-like look on her face. This concubine must have a deep love for Your Majesty. That’s incredible!
