Chapter 201 The situation is approaching in three years
Concubine Fu’s favorite wintersweet flowers are in bloom.
Danyue and Fangdian each brought a bottle over.
Youzhu said: "The fragrance of wintersweet is incomparable to other flowers, so it is appropriate to display it at this time."
"Narcissus and iris are also good, but the fragrance is a bit stronger." Bishu said.
Concubine Fu looked at the two bottles of wintersweet and said: "The plum blossoms are blooming really well this year. I was about to go to the concubine to pay her respects and take this bottle of red plums. Concubine Concubine also loves plum blossoms.
He also told me that offering plum blossoms on ancient tables and copying scriptures under the lamp are all elegant things. I just keep a bottle here and it is enough."
Then he called Xue Hengzhao: "It's enough that you and Wei Zhong come with me."
So Concubine Fu held Wei Zhong's hand, Xue Hengzhao held the vase of plum blossoms, and the three of them walked to Tong'an Palace.
"I heard that Concubine Xian's brother Liu Mizhang is going to serve in the Ministry of Household Affairs." Concubine Fu said.
"Since the sixth prince married the daughter of the Yao family, both the virtuous concubine and her natal family have been promoted." Wei Zhong said, "Now Concubine Ying and the Ma family have fallen back."
"More than half of the Ma family was destroyed by their own people," Concubine Fu said calmly, "The Liu family is just reaping the benefits."
"The queen also sees that the Ma family is becoming more and more unusable, and it will drag her down again and again. Before, there was no more suitable replacement. Now let alone the queen, the Yao Tai couple also prefer their own son-in-law." Xue Hengzhao couldn't help but
He said nonchalantly, "The only difference is whether you still get a piece of the Ma family's pie."
"Yes, if the Ma family is still useful, they will naturally be given a place.
If it fails, sooner or later he will be thrown out of the game." Wei Zhong said, "My family will be in a hurry now."
"Heng Zhao, you said before that you wanted to create a rift between the Yao and Ma families, and now the rift is getting bigger. It can be seen that this situation was expected by you." Concubine Fu looked back at Xue Hengzhao.
She was wearing a moon-white rabbit fur cloak, without any makeup, and her beauty was natural.
Then I asked the red plum blossoms in my arms to respond, it was really picturesque.
"This is also the situation that person wants," Xue Hengzhao never showed his teeth when smiling, "so we won't have a head-on conflict yet."
"Yes, in a multi-party game, it is inevitable to go through several trials." Concubine Fu believed deeply, "In the end, it will inevitably be bloody and fight to the death."
"Anyone who can pass through Tonghu Mountain and still survive today is not a good person. Although it is not exposed openly at the moment, there are times when hidden knives can kill people." Wei Zhong reminded, "We have to be careful.
Be on guard."
"We should be able to live in peace for a while now," Xue Hengzhao said. "After all, some people have just gotten into trouble and some have just gained. No matter what, it's time to calm down."
"There's nothing wrong with taking it easy," Fu Fei said, "Have a peaceful New Year!"
Tong'an Palace happened to be receiving the new year's gifts from the emperor.
Aunt Ningcui stood on the steps, watching the palace maids and eunuchs take things.
Seeing Concubine Fu, she hurriedly came over to say hello and said, "The concubine told me just now that she was a little bored and wanted someone to talk with her. But by chance, the empress came."
"So, I have a good connection with the concubine." Concubine Fu smiled and walked in, "I didn't come here because of the strong wind yesterday. Look, the weather is not bad today. They picked the plum blossoms again, so I thought of giving them to them.
The concubine sent it over to have a look."
"The empress is the most filial, and she knows the preferences of the concubine." Aunt Ningcui opened the curtain herself, "No wonder our concubine talks about it every day."
After a fire was lit outside, a few people just went in.
Concubine Rong was wearing a Buddha blue soft satin cotton robe and honey-coloured plain shoes. She smiled and asked Concubine Fu to sit down: "Why are you here? I left some delicious food for you!"
While talking, the palace maid had already served persimmon cakes, tribute oranges, longans and winter dates.
"Thank you, Princess Fu, for thinking of me. Even if I can't finish all these, I still want to take some back and keep them for later." said Princess Fu.
"You dare to bring me flowers." Concubine Rong saw Xue Hengzhao holding red plum blossoms, "leave me yours too! This girl is so pretty, and she has to hold the plum blossoms to show off."
Show great spirit."
"Let me tell you, no matter how smart we are, we can't be as smart as the concubine." Concubine Fu smiled, "This is not a delicious food for me. I am obviously going to trade this for a big living!"
Everyone in the room laughed.
Concubine Rong asked Xue Hengzhao to come over again, took her hand and said, "I'm so sorry, why don't you gain weight?"
I really want to bring you to me, but unfortunately your mother-in-law is really reluctant to let you go.
It is said that a gentleman will not compete with others for their love, so I will not fight with her."
"The concubine is too complimentary. In fact, this servant is the most ordinary. We, the queen, just pity the slave."
/p>
"Look at this child, he is really sensible." Concubine Rong said to Concubine Fu, "Please order us a bowl of tea. I haven't had your tea for some days."
Xue Heng went down to prepare as instructed, and Concubine Fu accompanied Concubine Rong to talk.
After drinking tea, Concubine Fu asked the concubine to have a rest and went back to the palace.
Xue Hengzhao took the opportunity to ask for leave from Concubine Fu, saying that she wanted to go back to Sisi to see her former friends.
"Go, you never forget your roots, and there's nothing going on here." Concubine Fu said, "If you want to bring something with you, ask a little girl to follow you."
Xue Hengzhao is now considered the eldest maid in the palace, and she can have people follow her when she goes in and out.
Xue Hengzhao brought some snacks and the things that Concubine Fu and others usually gave her.
Go to the back to look for Chi Su.
Chi Su now has more than a dozen people in charge, and she and Xue Hengzhao haven't seen each other for a long time.
"Ouch! How come you, such a busy person, find time to see me?" Chi Su hugged Xue Hengzhao, "I was talking about you to Shi Dianjin when I got up early! I was talking about the time we were in Xiaowuyuan last year.
days."
"I should have come to see you a long time ago," Xue Hengzhao said, "I just couldn't find a suitable opportunity."
"It doesn't matter whether you come to see me or not. It's enough for you to be nice. Fufei came the day before yesterday and talked to me for half a day before leaving." Chi Su lowered his voice again, "I heard that your palace and them
We don't have much contact with each other now, and the servants are like black-eyed chickens when they see each other. She doesn't dare to see you, for fear of getting you into trouble."
"You must have heard about those things later." Xue Hengzhao said, "We are almost passively beaten. They are not happy, but they are not bullied."
"Why don't you come here? Others don't know it, and I don't know it either." Chi Su bumped her with his shoulder, "How could you be passively beaten while you were here?
If this were the case in the past, the Ma family would have been very arrogant. Most likely they would not be able to offend Concubine Fu, so they would have to hide.
But it will be different when you go there, otherwise why would the Ma family be dealt with again and again."
"Please don't talk about it. I brought you some food and supplies. You can also go to Furong Palace during the Chinese New Year." Xue Hengzhao said, "I need a helper."
