Chapter 157 It doesn’t matter, it’s the same everywhere
Lihua refused, with the same smile as before, "The cool breeze is blowing in the morning, the scenery here is just right, and the fragrance of lotus flowers is bursting. Aunt Qin, may I go over there and have a look?" She stretched out her hand towards a lotus in Zhuangning Palace.
Chi points to go.
Nanny Qin nodded and watched the person pass. She felt sorry but also a little pleased.
Impatience is the most taboo thing in this palace. If you are anxious, you will easily make mistakes and fall into a situation that will never recover.
During the years when Nanny Qin stayed with the Queen Mother, she saw many such concubines.
She was still optimistic about Lihua in her heart. She was afraid that Lihua wouldn't be able to bear it before, but now that she sees people like this, she just feels good.
There is a rockery next to the lotus pond. The pear blossoms admired the morning lotus. They slowly climbed up the rockery and took a brief look at Zhuangning Palace.
People were arriving at the entrance of Zhuangning Palace one after another. They were all newly promoted concubines. They were new to the palace and did not know the Queen Mother's habits. They followed her previous style of getting up early and came over after washing themselves.
The ten original show girls were scattered and lived in different side halls.
Fortunately, two acquaintances live in the east and west wings of the same palace.
Unlucky enough, he was surrounded by strangers. In the main hall, there was a high-ranking concubine who was dominating him, and in the other side hall, there was a senior concubine who was dominating him. It was very unsettling.
Soon, four or five of the ten new concubines arrived.
When they saw familiar people, they were a little happy with each other. When they saw Lihua at the lotus pond, after saying something to Aunt Qin, they all gathered around and talked about their respective situations in private.
After seeing the situation in the harem, the friendship between classmates in Qunfang Hall became particularly precious, even those who didn't like each other all liked each other.
They are talking and Lihua is listening.
Su Siru was also among them, looking at Lihua in silence, wondering what she was thinking.
She was quite lucky. In the main hall where she was assigned, the aloof and aloof Concubine Xie lived. She never joined in the fun unless necessary, and she didn't bother to pay attention to Su Siru.
When Su Siru moved in, Concubine Xie sent someone from the palace to tell her that she liked to be quiet and not be disturbed.
Su Siru just didn't want to look at the other person's face, so they hit it off immediately.
The tranquility by the lotus pond did not last long, and was completely broken with the arrival of Wu Fanger.
Wu Fang'er's whole body was radiant from the inside out. Her original maid was thrown into the corner by her, and this time she brought a new maid.
The palace maid's name was Linglong. She had been in the palace for many years and was well-informed. She served Wu Fang'er very attentively, and she was directly promoted to the position of eldest palace maid by Wu Fang'er.
In front of Nanny Qin, Wu Fang'er didn't dare to make any mistakes. When she came to the lotus pond, she put on airs.
Except for Lihua, everyone else had to salute her, which made her feel very good and even more proud.
However, the shadow on Su Siru was too deep, and before coming here, the eldest maid Linglong reminded her that Su Siru had a good family background and a deep connection with the royal family, so it was not appropriate to offend her, so Wu Fang'er did not dare to go too far.
She was not very polite to Lihua and directly sneered, "Isn't this Mr. Wu? I heard that you live in Tingliyuan? Tsk, tsk, tsk, the feng shui there is not very good. It seems that the people who lived there before ended up badly."
”
These are what she heard from Linglong. When she was in Qunfang Hall, she was jealous of Lihua, but Lihua had the same status as her, which made her resentful.
After Linglong comforted and comforted her, Wu Fanger realized that she was now more beautiful than Lihua. It was rare for their status to change, so it was natural for them to compete with each other.
When others were silent, they deliberately avoided mentioning this point, for fear of poking a sore spot in Lihua.
Su Siru clenched her fists and looked at Wu Fanger coldly.
Wu Fang'er took a look and subconsciously took a step back to hide behind the palace maid.
Lihua's peach blossom eyes were slightly raised, she took a step forward and asked with interest, "Wu Meiren knows a lot, can you tell me in detail?"
I don't care at all about the sarcasm in Wu Fang'er's words, I still want to know more.
She just said that she always felt that except for the dilapidation of Tingli Courtyard, the rest was quite good. The courtyard was so big, and the main hall and the side halls had carved beams and painted columns, showing signs of careful decoration in the past.
But how could such a beautiful yard be abandoned?
Lihua walked around the entire Tingli Garden, and found traces of talismans posted and torn off in some hidden areas of the main hall, which caught her attention.
Also, Lu Jieyu and her minions never came close to the main hall, which made her feel even more strange.
But not long after she moved in, she had something more important to do, so she didn't have time to ask.
Listening to what Wu Fang'er said now, Lihua would not miss this opportunity to know the reason without wasting any effort.
The others were silent again and looked at Lihua. No anger or decadence could be seen on Lihua’s face.
They couldn't help but secretly admire him, thinking that Mr. Wu was worthy of being a gentleman, and his psychological quality was better than that of ordinary people.
If they had been ridiculed and cursed like this, they would have been so angry that they would have retorted.
Wu Fang'er didn't get the expected reaction. Instead, she was annoyed and wanted to say more exciting things.
The maid next to her gently tugged on her sleeve and shook her head before she reluctantly swallowed her words.
Wu Fang'er was barely able to show off in front of the original showgirls. She felt that these people were not worthy of her company, so she left the sentence "Mr. Wu, please be careful, be careful of being haunted." She walked away with her head held high.
Lihua regretted not getting more information, but from these few sentences, she probably knew what happened in Tingliyuan.
It was just that the concubine who lived there before was dead and disabled. Later, there were gradually rumors of being haunted. What else could there be?
She lamented that Wu Fang'er got a pretty smart palace maid, and she was finally not so stupid. She just didn't know whether she could suppress the servants around her.
"Wuli, aren't you angry?" Su Siru said to Lihua with a straight face, her first words after meeting.
Lihua came back to her senses, smiled and said calmly, "It doesn't matter, it's the same everywhere, not to mention that it may not be bad where I am."
Su Siru was stunned. It took her a long time to realize what this sentence meant.
People who are not favored are the same everywhere, but in the palace, except for Wu Fang'er, there has never been a favored concubine.
Living in Tingliyuan, Lu Jieyu couldn't suppress Lihua, so there was no one to restrain her. From this point of view, Lihua's situation was actually better than that of others.
As the concubines arrived one after another, the newly promoted concubines returned to the main hall of Zhuangning Palace and stood with their heads lowered behind the concubines in charge of each palace. There was no chance to speak in private.
Zhou Yuzhen and the remaining few people came with the chief concubine in their palace, and they seemed to be having a hard time.
To greet you on this day, all the concubines in the palace were present.
When everyone arrived and lined up, Lihua was stunned.
The newly promoted concubines also stared with their eyes wide open, secretly communicating with each other, as if they were saying why are most of the empresses in the palace so weird?
When you look at it alone, you don’t notice it, but when you look at it collectively, you realize something is wrong.
Some cover their faces, some have very long sleeves, some have awkward walking postures, and some have a strange fragrance...
Moreover, many people are dressed in a rustic style, and their style seems...like...Wu Fanger?
Yes, just like her!
Little masters, please be patient, the bright future will always come
If you can't bear it, you can just call the author a dog.
But no negative reviews are allowed
If you leave a negative review, hehehe...
The dog author secretly observed and wrote it down in a small notebook, and even did bad things~
………
Seriously speaking, this experience and hardship is what Lihua must endure, and it is very slight
Only when she sees life and death and learns about life and death can she become more perseverant
The real suffering, the dog author let others suffer for her
Don't look at the good scenery for a while, haven't you heard a word? The fire is cooking, the flowers are blooming, but you don't know that the danger has quietly come
