Hibiscus Tent: The Prime Minister’s palm is reborn

Sulan came in holding the Yao plate and met Yuan Zhi head-on.

Yuan Zhi couldn't help but stop and her eyes lit up: "Your Majesty, this Guanyin shrine is really beautifully made."

The white jade Guanyin presented to the queen was very good, but the only drawback was that it lacked a suitable Guanyin niche, so Liang Huan specially ordered someone to make a new one out of small-leaf rosewood.

Su Lan smiled and put the Yao plate in front of Yuan Zhi: "If you are curious, take a few more looks."

Yuan Zhi winked and smiled at her.

Xianglan made a serious face: "When you return to your residence, it won't matter no matter how much trouble you make. Are you the ones who got in here with me?"

Su Lan bit her lip and lowered her head.

Liang Huan glanced at Su Lan and said to Yuan Zhi: "Don't rush to put the medicine box in. You all can come and take a look to see if there is anything that needs to be changed."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhi immediately curled up the corners of her lips, holding the medicine box in one hand and holding Su Lan in the other, heading towards Liang Huan.

Xianglan looked at Liang Huan and hesitated: "Your Majesty..."

Liang Huan smiled knowingly: "Go and get the white jade statue."

Xianglan nodded.

Su Lan put down the Guanyin niche, raised her head and said seriously: "Your Majesty, Cui Cui is still kneeling at the entrance of the palace. When the slave was in the Tai Chi Palace, the master asked about it——"

Liang Huan calculated carefully and found that he had been tormenting him in different ways for some time.

"Yuan Zhi, bring him a cup of tea. It's unlucky not to die at our door on such a hot day."

Yuan Zhi did as she was told.

Liang Huan thought for a while and said, "I'll go with you."

She said and left the main hall together with Yuan Zhi.

At noon, the sun is at its strongest.

As soon as I went out, I saw a person lying upside down under the blazing sun.

It was Cui Hao.

Yuan Zhi clicked her tongue: "Mother, it's still too late."

Liang Huan shook his head: "It's just heatstroke. He's so delicate. There's no need to drink this tea. Just pour it on your face and you'll wake up."

Yuan Zhi stepped forward and poured a cup of tea.

When Liang Huan approached, Cui Hao really woke up.

His cheeks were red, his lips were white, and his eyes were a little distracted. He slowly focused and carefully identified the person.

"Ah, Ah Huan..."

Yuan Zhi looked around and kicked him: "Minister Cui, open your eyes wide and look carefully!"

Cui Hao woke up from the pain, wiped his face hurriedly, and knelt down again with a trembling body.

"Please punish the empress."

Liang Huan looked down and smiled: "Are you destined to accept my punishment?"

Cui Hao's head dropped.

If she says anything now, not only will she die, but her young son and widowed mother will also suffer.

"Please forgive me, my queen."

The sun was dazzling, and Liang Huan squinted his eyes: "Go."

Cui Hao kowtowed: "Thank you, empress."

He bowed and retreated to a certain distance before turning around and leaving.

Yuan Zhi turned around and looked over: "Mother, not only Taiji Hall and Hanguang Hall, but also the entire Nancheng Palace knows that you hate this Cui Hao."

Liang Huan looked at the staggering figure quietly, thoughtfully: "Yes, everyone knows."

The enemy of the enemy is the friend.

She blocked the sun with her hands, looked at the ignorant person, raised her lips and smiled.

"Let's go back."

Yuan Zhi nodded in understanding.

-

Liuhua Garden is located near mountains and rivers.

Under the shade of trees and flowers, the golden tower is not tied to the boat, guests are like clouds, and drums and music are singing.

The queen has always been frugal, but this was the first time in her ten years in the palace that she held a grand birthday banquet.

It's really strange.

What's even more strange is that it is said that Concubine Shu strongly suggested this birthday banquet to the emperor. Not only that, she also used her own monthly schedule to fully support it.

But the most surprising thing is that the emperor actually agreed.

As long as the former harem is not deaf and blind, who doesn't know that the relationship between emperor and empress is superficial?

In the hot summer months, sweet melons float in the clear springs, and plum blossoms sink in the cold water.

The cold and delicious melons and fruits cannot dissipate the heat in summer, nor can they suppress the whispering enthusiasm of busy people.

The banquet has not yet begun, but the ladies and ladies gather together in twos and threes to chat and laugh.

Someone was hiding behind a door fan, winking.

"Don't tell me she does have some tricks up her sleeve."

"That's because since she entered the palace, no one else has shown up, and even the previous ones have lost their voice. I heard that Li and Zhao offended her for some reason and were stripped of their status. ,return……"

"I heard from my cousin that it can be said to be a one-man harem."

"Well, it's no wonder. Who tells people to live up to their own expectations? How long have they been in the palace? It's true that everyone has his own destiny."

Someone listened for a long time and said: "What does this mean? You probably don't know yet. The news of her pregnancy reached the north, and Zhou Jun even sent her a congratulatory gift."

Several people looked at each other and gasped.

"It's really amazing!"

After the surprise, there was confusion again.

"But how can she, a woman from a deep palace, establish a relationship with Beibian?"

"It's hard to say. Don't forget how her previous one died..."

The exchange of glances was meaningful.

"It's really hard to understand when talking about this-"

I don't know who laughed: "Humph, if you could understand, wouldn't you be able to go to court?"

The person next to me blushed with embarrassment: "You, you are such a bad person, you actually made fun of me, let's see if I don't tear your mouth apart!"

"I didn't know your Prince Zhuo liked someone so fierce..."

"You still said that!"

"Hey, please stop making trouble first, and then you can talk to us."

The blushing man looked up and unexpectedly saw a familiar figure standing alone on the railing, seemingly looking at something.

She shouted in surprise: "Danqing!"

The person beside the Zhulan looked back as if he had just woken up from a dream, and looked back with surprise in his eyes: "Abi?"

Seeing that it was Mrs. Zhou Taiwei, the chattering people all saluted.

The wife of the Marquis of Huaiyin was not as restrained as others, and joked: "What else do you want to hear? You might as well ask her. Who else knows as much as she does?"

The speaker was unintentional, the listener was intentional, and several people looked at each other.

The eldest sister is the queen, and the second sister is the widow of Marquis Anding. Zhou Taiwei is also a good friend of Marquis Anding. It is said that she has a close personal relationship with him...

The truth must be the truth, but no one dared to ask. When she thought that those gossips just now might have been overheard by her, she was afraid for a while, but they all smiled and changed the topic.

Cao Danqing's eyes swept across their stiff faces and smiled politely.

The wife of the Marquis of Huaiyin broke away from the crowd and approached with a friendly expression: "It's the Queen's birthday, why are you here alone?"

As he said that, he looked doubtfully to both sides: "Let me see what you were looking at just now. Could it be that you are waiting for someone here?"

Cao Danqing shook his head and smiled: "It's too early to leave the banquet, and it's a bit stuffy inside. The jacaranda flowers are blooming so well here that I was fascinated by them for a while."

The wife of the Marquis of Huaiyin pulled her aside and frowned: "What are you talking about? Why don't you come here when your sister has a good life? Are you feeling depressed? How can Shi Fang be depressed?"

She looked unbelieving and looked up and down carefully: "I haven't seen you for a long time, why have you lost so much?"

Cao Danqing forced a smile.

Just as he was about to explain, someone from the palace came forward.

"Mrs. Taiwei, Concubine Shu invites you."
