Aunt Lan Xun gritted her teeth and said: "Concubine Mao kept it secret about such a serious injury. Before she accepted her favor, she didn't reveal even a single bit!"
Concubine Xi rubbed her swollen and painful eyebrows. This kind of thing should not be made public in the first place.
Concubine Xi sighed heavily, "It's terrible now."
If Ying promised to be favored, she would definitely be a spoiler. Originally, she could just find someone to check and balance her, but unexpectedly, she had just given Ms. Liu a severe lesson and she had no one to help her!
This Liu family must never be asked to regain her favor. Yun Changzai and Ji Changzai have already fallen out of favor, let alone those old ones!
For a while, Concubine Xi had a splitting headache.
The weather was very good that day, so Shu Jin made an appointment with Concubine Mao to go out to the garden. The third princess made an appointment with Princess Hui and the four princesses of Prince Zhuang's Mansion to go out to play. Concubine Mao was feeling a little depressed.
Wu Zaku, a good employee of the Twenty-four Filial Piety, was left by Shu Jin in Danning Hall to handle palace affairs, and the verbose Lan Ruo was also left in the hall to "assist". Following her today were the eldest palace maids Shuxiang, Moxiang, and a few young sweet-tongued people.
Second-class palace maids, and several handsome young eunuchs.
The palace maids around Shu Jin all looked like Zhou Zheng, but none of them were outstandingly beautiful, mainly because they were afraid that the dog emperor would make random moves. As for the eunuchs, she quietly chose a lot of good-looking ones.
For example, Yan Tai, the smart eunuch who is called Xiao Inkstone, is a handsome young man with thick eyebrows, big eyes and a high nose. There is also Xiao Lizi, a shy little eunuch with fair skin and good looks. He doesn't talk much on weekdays, but
In front of you, it's an eye-candy.
The little inkstone is a clever talker: "Two ladies, look, the lotus flowers in Quyuan Fenghe are in bloom!"
Shu Jin raised his eyes and looked into the distance. There were indeed sporadic bright reds among the rippling lotus leaves in the distance. He looked at Concubine Mao with a smile and said, "Shall we go boating on the lake?"
Concubine Mao finally smiled and said, "Going boating and admiring the flowers with your concubine is a time well spent."
Shu Jin smiled and asked the small inkstone to prepare the boat. The Old Summer Palace was crisscrossed by waterways, with the front lake and the back lake Penglai Fuhai. The scenery of the water in front was called "Quyuan Fenghe", which was modeled after the West Lake Quyuan in Hangzhou.
, there is a large stone bridge with nine holes across the pond. In the hot summer, this is really an excellent place to cool off and enjoy the scenery.
Although it is not the time when lotus flowers are in full bloom yet, sporadic red lotus flowers are already blooming, and the faint fragrance of lotus flowers can be smelled from a distance.
The two of them felt relaxed and happy for a moment. Unexpectedly, something terrible came out of the scene at this moment.
Shu Jin only saw a flash in front of his eyes, and then heard a "pop", and a woman wearing a pink-colored flag uniform knelt down by the lotus pond, blocking the path of Shu Jin and Mao Fei.
Concubine Mao suddenly became displeased, "Who is this? How dare you block the way of the imperial concubine? It's really unruly!"
Shu Jin took a closer look and said, oh, isn't this Liu Xuesheng? He hasn't seen him for more than a month, and he looks thinner and more pitiful.
Liu promised that he never expected that Concubine Mao would not recognize him, so he could only say: "Concubine Yinghui Palace promised Liu, I have met the imperial concubine and I have met the concubine Mao."
Concubine Mao became even more displeased when she heard that she was from Concubine Xi's palace, "Since you are from Concubine Xi's palace, what do you mean by blocking her way? Could it be that Concubine Xi sent you here?!"
Liu promised to shake his head hurriedly: "It was the concubine who found the opportunity to run out and wanted to ask the imperial concubine to make the decision!"
Upon hearing this, Concubine Mao was no longer angry. Instead, she showed a somewhat playful expression. Did she fall out with the leader? A small promise, but she is quite courageous.
Concubine Mao will naturally not pay attention to a small promise from Concubine Xi's palace. Even if Mrs. Liu has been a little favored in the past two years, it is not enough to meet Concubine Mao's eyes.
Shu Jin, on the other hand, had been paying attention to Liu Yaosheng, and she raised her eyebrows: "Making the decision? Your chief is Concubine Xi, you should go to her to make the decision." It is against the rules to report to someone beyond the level.
Liu promised to have red circles in his eyes in grievance, "It was Concubine Xi who deliberately harmed my concubines!"
Shu Jin straightened his expression, "Liu promised, do you have any evidence for what you said?"
Liu promised to have a pretty face. Where does she have any evidence? But that kind of thing is obvious!
Shu Jin said calmly: "Without any evidence, it is slandering the throne."
Liu promised to be panicked, and said hurriedly: "Concubine, for no apparent reason, my monthly letters didn't stop. Finally, I finally ran out of monthly letters, but Concubine Xi pressed my green card and didn't allow me to sleep with you! I also asked Concubine Xi to be my concubine!"
I’m in charge!”
Saying that, Liu promised to kowtow quickly.
Concubine Mao smiled and said to Shu Jin: "My dear concubine, what Concubine Xi did is indeed against the rules."
Rules? The right to interpret such things is always in the hands of those in power.
Shu Jin glanced at Mrs. Liu, who was in tears, and said in a nonchalant way: "Concubine Xi must have seen you looking haggard, so she sympathized with you and wanted you to take care of her for a while."
Who asked you to annoy Concubine Xi by jumping up and down?
Shu Jin is too lazy to care about such nonsense in Yinghui Palace.
Concubine Mao tugged at Shu Jin's sleeve.
Shu Jin immediately glared at her, "You just watch the fun and don't think it's a big deal!"
Seeing that the imperial concubine was unwilling to intervene, Concubine Mao coughed and said, "Liu promised, it's not that the imperial concubine doesn't want to make the decision for you, but that Concubine Xi is also a concubine after all. This is unfounded, and it's hard for the imperial concubine to intervene to welcome her."
It’s about Huidian.”
Liu promised to be completely panicked. Is she going to continue to "raise" her like this? Now that Ying agreed to appear out of nowhere and become favored, in a few days, the emperor will probably forget about her! By then, Ying promised to be favored.
, isn’t it true that Concubine Xi can do whatever she wants to do to her?
Thinking of this, Liu promised to tremble with fear. She looked at the imperial concubine and Mao Fei pitifully: "Please give me some advice from the two empresses!"
Concubine Mao laughed, she wasn’t too stupid! Concubine Mao whispered: “It’s not good for the imperial concubine to fall out with Concubine Xi over such a trivial matter. And you just need someone to help you whisper something in the emperor’s ear.
"——As long as the emperor has spoken, the green card will naturally be put back.
Liu promised to smile again and again. Now the only ones who still have the chance to sleep with her are Gao and Ying. They are not familiar with her! What's more, even if they are familiar with each other, why should they help her regain their favor?
The emperor's favor is not much, so who would give it to others for no reason? I'm afraid others wish she had completely cut off the favor!
Concubine Mao smiled and said: "You might as well go and ask for those who are favored now. Maybe someone is willing to help you go to heaven to listen."
Liu agreed that there was nothing he could do about it. Although Concubine Mao's idea seemed unreliable, she could only give it a try.
After sending away the Liu family, Shu Jin and Concubine Mao boarded the orchid boat and paddled among the lotus leaves.
Shu Jin smiled and asked, "Do you want Mrs. Liu to ask Ying for permission?"
Concubine Mao nodded: "Exactly."
Shu Jin raised his eyebrows: "Does Ying promise that she is willing to do such a thing?" - This is equivalent to sharing favors with others! Shu Jin meant to tell Concubine Mao not to force others.
Concubine Mao smiled and said, "Don't worry, noble concubine. As long as you can take revenge on Concubine Xi and her son, Ying promises that she will not refuse."
