Golden branches and jade leaves

Chapter 49

Taiye Lake is rippling with blue waves and sparkling water. The spring river is a prophet of warming ducks. Now spring is warm and flowers are blooming. Waterfowl such as mandarin ducks and white-headed ducks raised in the palace are all playing in the water, making the calm lake more lively.

Spring fragrance blows past, countless petals on the shore are flying and scattered, and many petals fall into the lake. The turquoise and clear lake water is dyed bright red, which is extravagant and alluring, but no matter how charming the scenery is, it cannot compare with the two such beautiful women on the lake. Yu Jiaren's figure.

Two tall and beautiful figures were sitting on a small pavilion in the lake at this time, they were Su Mi and Shi Rouer.

Su Mi leaned sideways on a railing, stretched out her hand to gently grab a petal that was flying over, and said leisurely: "The scenery in this spring and March is so bustling and charming, especially after yesterday's spring rain."

Shi Rou'er on the side also said with a smile: "In the spring of Budeze, all things are radiant. The scenery of this spring is naturally the most gorgeous, refreshing and lovable. It is exactly what the ancients often said, "One evening light thunder falls ten thousand silk, The Jiguang, floating tiles and green are uneven.'."

"Then my younger sister is the 'sentimental peony with spring tears, powerless rose lying on dawn'." Su Mi smiled lightly, Shi Rouer had a bright red peony flower pinned to her bun, and was wearing a rose-colored wide sleeve. Luo Yi, which must be an unbearably vulgar dress color on an ordinary woman, is extraordinarily bright, attractive, and dazzling when worn on her body.

Shi Rou'er listened to Su Mi's words, smiled sweetly, and was about to say something polite, but Su Mi said again: "Unfortunately...it's a pity that my favorite is winter. Even though the spring breeze is cool, but it blows for a long time, it can make people feel chilly. On the contrary, it is not as good as the cold wind in winter, which is straight and sharp, even if it hurts, it makes people feel refreshed."

"Your Majesty's knowledge is really different." Shi Rou'er didn't show any emotion on her face, she still smiled elegantly and modestly: "The spring willow is weak and easy to break, so it can't compare to the proud branches of Hanmei. Although the spring light is beautiful and charming, it is vulgar. After all, it is not as clear and sweet as the winter snow-capped scenery, and it is exciting."

Su Mi smiled gently, and changed the subject: "My sister will be favored by His Majesty in a few days. I have always forgotten to congratulate my sister." While talking, she turned her head.

Shi Rou'er looked at Su Mi's turned side face, the scars on it had almost disappeared, a trace of annoyance flashed in her eyes, and then she smiled and said: "Congratulations for not being able to be a sister, I will wait for you." When a woman enters the deep palace, it is her duty to serve the emperor, and it is a lifetime honor for Rou'er to be favored by the emperor, and she only hopes to be like her elder sister, sharing worries and labors for the emperor from time to time."

After all, looking at Su Mi's face, Shi Rou'er hesitated for a moment, and tentatively said: "It's Rou'er's honor to be able to talk freely with my sister, speaking of it, my sister's wound is still Rou'er's fault, if it wasn't for Rou'er's rough hands Thick feet, how could it be..." Shi Rou'er said, her eye circles turned red, and she looked like she was about to cry: "Actually, Rou'er has always wanted to visit her sister, and wished she could serve her side to express her apology. But I'm afraid that I will cause trouble for my sister by being clumsy, and delay my sister's recovery..."

"How dare you work on my sister, it's just a minor injury." Su Mi smiled and said, "Your sister is too polite, and I also know that my sister was just an accident."

After being injured, the concubines of each courtyard naturally sent all kinds of tonic gifts, in name to comfort the injured sisters, and they couldn't wait to see the disfigured appearance of the emperor's favorite concubine, while caring How long will this scar last?

The scars on Su Mi's face really disappointed the expecting concubines, but within two days, the scars that the imperial physician said would only improve after three or five days disappeared.

At this time, Su Mi's slightly sideways face reflected the morning light, shrouded in a hazy color, suddenly clear and beautiful like a spirit rain in the sky, and the soft facial features revealed a hazy beauty.

Shi Rou'er looked at the woman standing facing the wind in front of her, and suddenly thought of that look in her eyes that day, and felt a chill for no reason.

She forced a smile and said: "Sister's appearance really looks good, I don't know why the emperor's servant didn't respond to the imperial edict?"

"It's just that the face is healed, and the injury on the shoulder has not healed yet, so it will spoil your majesty's interest." Su Mi said with a smile: "but my sister has always insisted not to be favored before the end of the teaching, so that your majesty will be more affectionate. A little more respect."

Shi Rou'er's face turned pale, and she said with a smile: "The concubine just obeys the palace rules and dare not violate them. If you talk about respect, in the emperor's heart, who can compare with my sister. My sister is desperate to save the emperor In times of crisis, no one in the palace will praise my sister's courage, and I have always admired my sister."

Hearing Shi Rouer's compliment, Su Mi smiled sweetly, but there was no smile in her eyes, she turned her head to look at the distant water surface, and did not speak for a moment.

Shi Rou'er sat behind her in silence for a while, she couldn't help feeling a little uneasy in her heart, she hesitated for a while, and finally said with a smile: "I don't know why my sister called Rou'er out this time?"

Su Mi gently stroked her hair that was blown by the wind, and said: "A senior in the palace once warned me that the harem looks like flowers and brocades, but it is actually filthy. If you are not favored from the beginning If you know how to hide your foolishness and keep your clumsiness, you will be able to take care of yourself for the rest of your life. If you are favored, on the surface it looks like a bright future, but in fact it is indeed on the cusp of the storm, and you will be murdered at every step. If you make a mistake, you will be out of favor and even guilty, and there will be no place for burial. If you just fall out of favor It is good to die, but what is even more unfortunate is that even the family members are implicated, and there is no place to die. What does my sister think of these words?"

This passage was so straightforward that Shi Rou'er couldn't figure out what Su Mi meant for a moment, she was stunned for a while, and then smiled shyly: "Of course what my sister said is good words."

Su Mi turned her head to look, and knew that Shi Rou'er didn't listen to half a word, so she changed the subject with a smile and asked, "I heard that my sister had an engagement when she was outside the palace?"

Shi Rouer's complexion changed, and Su Mi's one after another words were all beyond her expectations. Fortunately, she has always been calm, alert and obedient, and then smiled and said: "When I was young, I made a baby mother, and my parents made an appointment. The thing is, my sister can't even remember her fiancé's appearance. A few days ago, because of something in the man's family, she divorced her. This is how my sister has the opportunity to enter the palace to serve the emperor."

Su Mi smiled, and didn't get entangled in this topic, the two chatted casually, and soon Shi Rou'er got up and left with an excuse.

Su Mi didn't try to hold her back, she just smiled and said, "Sister Labor took so long to gossip with me."

While being polite, the two got up and walked towards the flying bridge.

Miqing and Shi Rouer's maids were standing on the bank under the bridge and waiting.

Su Mi was walking on the left, the two of them crossed the middle of the bridge, when they stepped on a wooden plank, suddenly the wooden plank broke, Su Mi stepped on the front with the other foot, staggered slightly, and fell towards Shi Rouer.
