Chapter seven hundred and sixty sixth sisters meet
Of course Liu Xiu discovered it, but he knew Xi Cheying better than Hua Feiyan. Xi Cheying already had many subordinates. Even if she lived in the wild, she did not need to do heavy work, but her life was very inconvenient.
It's definitely inevitable.
Let's talk about Xi Cheying. Under the guidance of Zhang Kun, he went to Xu Xiling's residence. On the way, Xi Cheying said to Zhang Kun with a smile: "Zhang Ye!"
Zhang Kun hurriedly bowed and saluted and said: "Miss Cheying!"
Xi Cheying asked: "I heard outside the palace that Zhang Yezhe is the closest chamberlain to His Majesty."
Hearing this, Zhang Kun couldn't hide the joy on his face, but on the surface he still pretended to be frightened. He waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Young lady, be careful what you say, be careful what you say! How dare you call yourself a minister when you are a mere eunuch?"
If the words reach His Majesty’s ears, even ten of my servant’s heads won’t be enough to chop him off!”
Xi Cheying burst out laughing, gave Zhang Kun a wink, and said: "Looking at what Zhang Ye said, it seems that I am a talkative woman."
Even though he was an eunuch, Zhang Kun couldn't help but shudder when he saw Xi Cheying's flirtatious look. He swallowed his saliva and said quickly: "It's the slave who made a mistake! It's the slave who made a mistake!"
Xi Cheying changed the subject and said, "I heard that most of the bedrooms in the palace are idle."
"Uh... this..." Zhang Kun was speechless, hesitating and unable to speak. Xi Cheying asked the palace, who could live in the palace? It must be the concubines.
Xi Cheying's words were asking how many concubines the emperor had. Who would care about how many concubines the emperor had? That must be someone who wants to be the emperor's concubines.
Seeing the nervous look on Zhang Kun's face, Xi Cheying smiled slightly, took out a gold ingot from his belt, stuffed it into Zhang Kun's hand without leaving any trace, and said with a smile: "Cheying first arrived at the palace.
I don’t know anything about the situation, and I hope Zhang Ye can shed some light on it.”
Zhang Kun lowered his head and looked at the gold ingot in his hand. He was frightened. He couldn't help but secretly smacked his tongue. This girl Cheying was so generous. He quickly declined and said: "Girl, I dare not accept such a generous gift..."
Xi Cheying smiled indifferently and said: "There will be many places where Cheying will trouble Zhang Yezhe in the future. This small amount of kindness can be regarded as Cheying's meeting gift. If Zhang Yezhe doesn't accept it, he will be looking down on Cheying's meager gift.
.”
"No, no, the girl said that, but I am so embarrassed." Zhang Kun smiled with a smile on his face, and naturally put the gold ingot given to him by Xi Cheying into his arms. He said: "To be honest, miss, your majesty is now three
Concubine." As he spoke, he looked around and saw that there was no one nearby. He slowed down, approached Xi Cheying, and whispered in a low voice: "One is Queen Guo, and the other is Yin Guiren.
, one is Xu Meiren.”
Xi Cheying blinked his eyes, frowned slightly and said, "Did Zhang Yezhe forget about Hua Meiren?"
Zhang Kun waved his hand and said: "Although Hua Meiren has the title of beauty, it is fake." Seeing Xi Cheying's surprised look, he explained mysteriously: "Hua Meiren is in charge of Yunxi Pavilion, and your majesty wants to borrow Yunxi Pavilion.
Xige collects intelligence from all over the world. In order to make it easier for Hua Meiren to enter and leave the palace, His Majesty specially canonized her as a beauty. In fact, Your Majesty has never spent a night at Hua Meiren's place."
So that's it! Xi Cheying rolled his eyes and asked again: "Your Majesty has no other concubines?"
Liu Xiu only had three concubines, which surprised Xi Cheying. There was no emperor in the past dynasties who did not have a harem of three thousand, but when it came to Liu Xiu, there were only three concubines. This is incredible.
Zhang Kun sighed: "Your Majesty has to take care of both state affairs and military affairs, and from time to time you have to drive and conquer personally. How can your Majesty have any extra time to devote to the harem?!"
Speaking of this, Zhang Kun couldn't help but sigh: "Your Majesty is truly a benevolent and diligent king who is rare to see in a hundred years!"
After Xie Cheying heard this, he also felt some admiration for Liu Xiuye in his heart.
Those who can survive hardship may not be able to survive glory and wealth. It is not easy for people who can go from suffering to glory and wealth and still keep their true intentions, and it is indeed very admirable.
She said quietly: "Your Majesty has lofty ambitions, which are beyond the comparison of ordinary people."
Zhang Kun nodded in agreement.
The two of them were talking and had already reached the gate of the Phoenix Palace. Zhang Kun smiled at Xi Cheying and said, "Girl, this is Xu Meiren's Phoenix Palace."
Although Xi Cheying didn't know much about the layout of the palace, he could feel that the Phoenix Palace was very close to the Qingliang Palace where Liu Xiu received him.
She smiled slightly and praised: "Junior Sister's choice of this palace is really good, it is very close to His Majesty." Those who are near water and towers get the moon first! When it comes to scheming, this Junior Sister of mine is not an easy person.
Zhang Kun didn't say much. He bowed and said, "Miss, I will leave first."
"Thank you Zhang Ye for leading the way."
"Miss, you're welcome." After Zhang Kun left, Xi Cheying came to the door of the courtyard and said to the little palace maid guarding the door: "My name is Xi Cheying, I am Xu... Xu Meiren's senior sister, please trouble this little lady.
Gong'e goes in and makes a report."
Seeing that Xi Cheying was brought here by Zhang Kun, the little palace maid realized that her identity was not simple. Unexpectedly, she turned out to be the beauty's senior sister.
The little palace maid hurriedly bowed and said, "My maid will go in to report. Please wait here."
After saying this, the little palace maid quickly walked into the palace. After waiting for half a stick of incense, Xu Xiling came out of the courtyard and saw that the person standing outside the courtyard door was Xi Cheying. She showed a look of surprise and quickly
He stepped forward and said, "Senior sister!"
Looking at Xu Xiling, whose face was full of joy and excitement, and whose face was radiant, Xi Che said with a smile: "We haven't seen each other for many years, but my junior sister's appearance is even better than before." After a pause, she hurriedly asked: "I have to call her junior sister now.
Xu Mei is."
Xu Xiling said with a smile: "We sisters, why do we need to be so invisible? Senior sister, please come inside!" She let Xi Cheying into the courtyard.
Phoenix Palace is not big, but although it is small, it has all the internal organs. The courtyard is full of flowers and plants, and the layout is beautiful and elegant. Because it is close to Qingliang Hall, the overall environment of Phoenix Palace is also very quiet.
While following Xu Xiling into the main hall, Xi Cheying sighed: "Junior sister is so lucky now that she has her own palace."
Xu Xiling said disapprovingly: "That's because senior sister has never been to Changqiu Palace and West Palace. Compared with the Queen's Changqiu Palace and the nobleman's West Palace, junior sister's small Phoenix Palace is really not worth mentioning."
"No matter how good the Changqiu Palace and the West Palace are, they are still too far away from the Emperor, but Junior Sister's Phoenix Palace is very close to His Majesty!" Xie Cheying said with a smile.
The smile on Xu Xiling's face froze, and then without answering, she walked into the hall with Xi Cheying. A palace maid came over to pour tea for Xi Cheying. The latter picked up the teacup, lowered his head and smelled it. It was the same as Xu Xiling's before.
Love to drink osmanthus tea.
She took a shallow sip and said, "Junior sister's taste has not changed over the years."
Xu Xiling bowed and said with a smile: "Make senior sister laugh."
"Junior Sister's taste has not changed. So, will the promise that Junior Sister made to Senior Sister back then change?"
Hearing this, Xu Xiling's expression changed slightly. She waved her hands around and dismissed the maids in the hall. When all the maids went out and the door of the hall was closed, Xi Cheying said slowly: "Back then,
Junior sister promised me that she would let me stay with the lord and ask him to give me a title. Now that the lord has become the emperor, the promise made by junior sister back then has not changed, right?"
Xu Xiling's somewhat stiff expression was covered up by her smile. She smiled slightly and said, "From what the senior sister said, it seems that the junior sister is someone who will go back on her word. Of course, the promise I made back then has not changed, but..."
Having said this, she paused for a moment and then said: "It's just that Your Majesty is obsessed with state affairs and has never paid much attention to the affairs of the harem. I can only do my best to help my senior sister stay in the palace. As for whether I can succeed."
, I’m not sure now.”
Xi Cheying smiled slightly, put down the teacup in his hand, and said, "Junior Sister said that, it's so disappointing."
Xu Xiling said sternly: "Senior sister, please don't get me wrong. I am not getting fat by breaking my promise. It's just that in this huge palace, the only ones who can really speak in front of His Majesty are Queen Guo and Guiren Yin. Your Majesty may not listen to my junior sister's soft words."
Junior sister’s.”
Seeing Xi Cheying's expression of disapproval, Xu Xiling said: "Junior sister is alone in the palace, and she is alone. If senior sister can also enter the palace, the two of us sisters can take care of each other and stand firm in the palace. Junior sister
How can you not want to let senior sister enter the palace? However, junior sister is just a beauty now, and she really can't say a few words in front of His Majesty."
Xi Cheying looked at Xu Xiling intently, as if he wanted to see the depths of her heart. Xu Xiling suddenly remembered something and asked: "Senior sister, do you know that flowers are not the beauty of fireworks?"
"I just met him at Qingliang Palace."
"Does Senior Sister know her true identity?"
"I also heard Zhang Yezhe say something."
Xu Xiling's eyes flickered. The senior sister was the senior sister. She had just entered the palace and was able to find out such a secret matter. She said: "Hua Feiyan was able to gain a foothold in the palace because of Yunxi Pavilion. Not long ago,
Yunxi Pavilion also recruited Zhao Jing from Nanjun and cut off one of Qin Feng's arms. Speaking of which, Hua Feiyan's current position in the palace is more solid than mine!"
Because she is useful and useful to the emperor, this is the best foundation.
Seeing Xi Cheying's thoughtful expression, Xu Xiling stood up, walked to Xi Cheying, helped her fill the tea cup, and said: "As far as I know, Hua Feiyan returned to Luoyang this time
, I can’t live there for only a few days, and I will go north to Youzhou soon, waiting for an opportunity to attack Peng Chong. I want to help Your Majesty get rid of Peng Chong, who is a close friend. If Senior Sister can take the lead and get rid of Peng Chong, then Senior Sister will enter the palace.
It will definitely get twice the result with half the effort!”
After hearing this, Xi Cheying's eyes suddenly lit up. She looked at Xu Xiling deeply and said slowly: "Junior sister is sincerely helping me?"
Xu Xiling said: "Junior sister's heart can be learned from heaven and earth!"
Xi Cheying nodded and said with a smile: "Okay! Senior sister, I will take your words to heart."
Xu Xiling asked with concern: "Senior sister really want to go to Youzhou?"
Xi Cheying shrugged and said, "It's not a bad idea."
Just as Xu Xiling was about to speak, a cry suddenly came from the inner room. Xi Cheying was startled, and Xu Xiling quickly walked into the inner room. After a short time, she took out a white and fat little baby from the inner room.
.
Seeing the little baby in her arms, Xi Cheying looked surprised and asked: "Junior sister, she...she is..."
Xu Xiling held the baby in her arms, her face filled with tenderness and happiness, and said, "She is the child of His Majesty and Junior Sister, and His Majesty named her the titular king!"
When the name Yiwang was mentioned, the smile on Xu Xiling's face deepened even more.
She was obviously a girl, but Liu Xiu gave her such a domineering name as Liu Yiwang, which has a profound meaning.
Women cannot be kings. The meaning of King Yi is actually the King of Yi. Yi Tong Yi is the word. The meaning of King Yi is "the same as all the kings". My daughter, Liu Xiu, is just like the kings.
From the name Liu Xiu gave his daughter, it is not difficult to see how much Liu Xiu loves his eldest daughter.
