"Of course I believe in my sister's methods. Besides, with Mr. Chen Hou here, who in the palace would dare to bully my sister? Even I envy my sister!"
Concubine Xiao Shu's eyes flashed.
Although she was born into a wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River, she was dwarfed by the families of the twelve princes of the Ming Dynasty. The two were not on the same level at all.
With such a background, Concubine Chen also had a detached status in the palace, unlike her who had to work hard on thin ice in order to maintain her status.
Concubine Chen couldn't help laughing: "What did my sister say? Who doesn't know that you are His Majesty's heartthrob? Whoever in the palace dares to offend you will be impatient with life. Why should you envy me, my sister?"
When Concubine Xiao Shu heard this, she couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart.
Thinking of the purpose of her trip, she braced herself and said, "I came here this time because my sister has a merciless request. I want to take care of my sister."
"Oh? I don't know what it is?"
"Sister, I once prayed for His Majesty in front of the Buddha. A year has passed in the blink of an eye, and I still haven't gone to fulfill my wish. However, I wanted to accompany my sister to Huayan Temple in the suburbs of Beijing."
Concubine Xiao Shu said and sighed, "I originally wanted to let Lin Cairen accompany me, but Lin Cairen has been feeling unwell recently. If I am alone, I always feel uneasy. After thinking about it, I can only bite the bullet and come here.
Please sister."
Concubine Chen thought for a while, but did not refuse and said, "As long as your Majesty allows it."
"I will definitely ask your Majesty for permission."
With Concubine Chen's words, Concubine Xiao Shu said quickly.
"Then I'll wait for the good news from my sister."
For a time, the atmosphere in the palace became more harmonious. Concubine Xiao Shu and Concubine Chen were talking and laughing. It was evening soon.
Concubine Xiao Shu seemed to have just noticed the time change, with a hint of surprise on her face: "I didn't expect it to be so late, so I won't disturb my sister..."
With that said, she was about to get up and leave.
Concubine Chen quickly stopped her: "It's so late, why not just have dinner in my palace!"
Having said that, Concubine Chen did not wait for Concubine Xiao Shu to refuse, but she had already arranged for someone to go down and pass on the food. Concubine Xiao Shu smiled helplessly and sat down again.
"Then I'll trouble my sister."
"They are all our sisters, what's the problem?"
Concubine Chen also smiled beautifully.
Not long after, the young eunuch and the palace maid brought the royal meal and laid it out. The dishes were rich in color, flavor and flavor. There was also a pot of wine named "Autumn Dew" in the table.
The two women talked and laughed, and even had a few drinks, with a slight blush on their faces.
Yang Fan stood not far away, looked at Concubine Xiao Shu on the left, and then at Concubine Chen on the right, and suddenly felt happier.
It's a pity that he can only look at it to satisfy his craving.
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he seemed to see Concubine Chen staring at him a few times. He confirmed that he had seen it correctly, and then he lowered his head and looked at his toes.
"I'm just a poor little eunuch! I just looked at Concubine Xiao Shu twice!"
The banquet finally dispersed until it was almost Hai hour. Concubine Xiao Shu, a little tipsy, returned to the Burning Moon Palace under the escort of her personal maids and eunuchs.
But Concubine Chen, who was drunk and hazy, suddenly became energetic when she saw her leaving, and suddenly sat up from half-leaning on the soft couch.
"Empress?"
Yang Fan was shocked.
Concubine Chen glanced at him: "Why, do you really think I am drunk?"
"Is not it……"
Yang Fan complained silently in his heart. Just now, the two women looked drunk, but now that Concubine Xiao Shu left, Concubine Chen immediately recovered.
What this illustrates is almost self-evident.
He remembered that the two women had a "sister" and a "sister", and suddenly he felt that the world of women was really complicated, especially the women in the deep palace.
Concubine Chen rolled up her sleeves, walked up to Yang Fan, and asked expressionlessly:
"What were you looking at Concubine Xiao Shu just now?"
Yang Fan was so excited that the other party had not forgotten this matter. Fortunately, he was not stupid and said quickly: "I was just wondering why Concubine Xiao Shu, who is as famous as the empress, is not as beautiful as the empress!"
Sure enough, no woman can resist the praise of others.
A smile appeared on Concubine Chen's face, she stretched out her jade hand, and pinched Yang Fan's face hard with two slender green jade fingers.
"What a mouth you have! You're really glib."
"I just said a truth that everyone agrees with, and it was also true from my heart."
When these words came out, Yang Fan suddenly felt that he was a little too flattering.
He couldn't help but begin to wonder if those great eunuchs who had achieved great success and left their names in history had come here in the same way. .??.
Sure enough, people under the eaves have to bow their heads!
"Let's go out with me for a walk."
Concubine Chen ordered.
"Are you going out so late?"
"Of course I have to go out, and I also want to take a look at my good sister." Concubine Chen's lips slightly raised, revealing a smile that frightened Yang Fan.
Concubine Chen was the only one with Yang Fan beside her. She stretched out her hand and put it on his arm.
Yang Fan felt the soft and delicate body leaning against him. Perhaps because Concubine Chen had a few drinks, he could vaguely smell the faint aroma of wine coming from her body, with an intoxicating taste.
The two of them left the palace. Concubine Chen was walking aimlessly, seemingly just wandering around casually. But after a while, the two of them arrived at Kunning Palace.
"It seems that this good sister of mine didn't forget to come to pay her respects to the Queen even though she was so late!"
Concubine Chen's tone was somewhat mocking.
Yang Fan was shocked: "Your Majesty, did you say that Concubine Xiao Shu is here?"
"Otherwise, why would I come here?"
Concubine Chen pulled Yang Fan and stood directly against the wall In the shadow, he chuckled and said, "Just wait, maybe it's time for her to come out."
Yang Fan looked at Concubine Chen who was full of confidence and suspected that she had used some Taoist methods on Concubine Xiao Shu. Otherwise, she would not be so confident.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Concubine Chen's words to come true. Concubine Xiao Shu and her party appeared and walked out of the gate of Kunning Palace.
"This! She's really here!"
Yang Fan was even more certain of his guess.
He looked at Concubine Xiao Shu in the distance, her face full of spring breeze, and then looked at Concubine Chen's mocking and sarcastic face in the shadow of the palace wall. The two almost formed a sharp contrast.
No one in the palace knew about the tense relationship between Queen Wang and Concubine Chen. Concubine Xiao Shu left Concubine Chen and came to Kunning Palace.
If you say there is nothing wrong with it, no one will believe it.
He couldn't help but fell silent.
It turns out that this is the woman in the palace, intrigues and intrigues!
They are sisters, come and stab them!
etc!
Yang Fan suddenly thought of something, looked at Concubine Chen, and said very quickly: "My Lady, if Concubine Xiao Shu invites you to go to Huayan Temple to fulfill your vow, isn't there a problem?"
There was a sneer on Concubine Chen's lips: "Of course there is a problem. The relationship between me and her is not that good. She suddenly sent out an invitation. I'm afraid it has something to do with that person in Kunning Palace!"
The two of them hid in the shadow of the palace wall and watched Concubine Xiao Shu and her entourage slowly disappear from sight before they stepped away.
On the way, Yang Fan hesitated several times, but finally couldn't help but ask: "Then if Concubine Xiao Shu really gets your majesty's permission and invites the empress, will the empress go?"
Concubine Chen raised her eyelids and smiled faintly: "Go, why don't you go? If you don't go, wouldn't you be living up to the good intentions of Concubine Xiao Shu and Queen Wang? I would like to take a look at what these two women are planning to do.
What kind of trick are you playing!"
The voice was faint and could not hide the biting coldness.
