In Changyin Pavilion, a big play is going on, Wanxiu is looking at the stage with a half-smile.Gao Liufei had an extraordinary appearance on the stage, but Wanxiu obviously didn't want to miss it, so he wanted to pick up some snacks after watching it for a while.

But a cake as white as snow on the plate made people lose their minds, and all kinds of emotions flashed in their eyes.

"Youxiang! Youxiang!" Wanxiu turned up the volume regardless of the fact that the show was still going on, and her eyes were filled with anger in an instant. "Who told you to serve Poria Cake! Did I tell you to eat Poria Cake!"

"Your Majesty, forgive me! The food orders for the past few days have been handled by Chuxiu Palace. Youxiang doesn't know..."

"Okay." Wanxiu waved her hand to stop Youxiang, and seeing that the other party still didn't back down, she said angrily, "What else are you going to do?"

"Your Majesty didn't like it, so Youxiang removed the Poria Cake..."

"Forget it, just put it here." Knowing that she was unreasonable first, Wanxiu's tone could not help but soften a little. "I didn't say no to eating."

Didn't say no to eating, but Wanxiu didn't look like she wanted to eat it either, she just stared at the Fuling Cake as if she saw Kou Yu, until it was announced that Rufei had arrived, Wanxiu regained her composure, and her gaze returned to the stage lazily .

"Auspicious concubine Chun." Concubine Ru still lowered her posture and greeted Wanxiu.

The corner of Wanxiu's mouth still maintained a sarcastic arc. "It's really pleasant to hear Rufei Empress call that. It should be like this between us."

"If Wanxiu thinks that verbal disputes can make you happy, sister will not care about it."

Wanxiu's expression changed and she snorted coldly. When Ruyue sat on her seat, she glanced at the scene on stage and couldn't help being surprised.

"I asked Mr. Gao to change the game. This kind of gentle, honest, loyal, and filial piety...it doesn't have a very exciting plot, but it suits you very well." Wanxiu looked very meaningful at a glance. "Sister, are you—are you here to watch the next episode of <Calling Painting>?"

Ruyue didn't answer, because Wanxiu had something to say no matter how she answered.She only lowered her voice, and asked softly, "Wanxiu, how are you these days?"

"I've never felt so at ease before." Wanxiu stared at Ruyue's eyes, and slowly said every word with hatred. "I'm just afraid that your life is too boring, sister."

"If you are worried, my sister can come to Yongshou Palace to accompany my sister to embroider or appreciate the copybook."

"Your Palace of Eternal Life is too expensive. Going to it is deep and winding, and the door is closed at every turn. My sister, I still won't go." There was no insinuation in the words, and Rufei's face darkened, and Wanxiu suddenly Feeling in a good mood, pick up the snacks and want to eat.

"Wan Xiu, do you still like Poria Cake?"

Ruyue said such a clear and light sentence, but the body of the person who heard the words trembled violently, and the Poria cocos cake that had just been bitten was almost crushed in the palm of his hand.Looking back and taking a cold look, Wanxiu couldn't tell whether it was hatred or resentment.

"I almost forgot. In the past, my sister loved to share Poria Cake with me. How can it be okay if I don't share it with my sister?"

Holding half a piece of Poria cake and handing it to Ruyue, Wanxiu's tone was cold and cold, Ruyue brushed her face in public, and was about to reach out to pick it up, but Wanxiu turned her palm down, and the Poria cake fell directly on the Ruyue put on her skirt.

"Sister, I was not careful──" But Wan Xiu showed no apology in her expression, her eyes were already red with anger, and those who didn't know thought that the victim of this accident should be Concubine Chun.

The next moment, it was rain.

"I'm not interested in watching the show today, Rufei, watch it yourself!" Wanxiu got up angrily, startling Youxiang behind her.

Youxiang hurriedly followed in the footsteps of Concubine Chun. Seeing that the master was about to overturn all the objects in the palace, she couldn't help but worried and asked, "Where are you going if you don't go back to Shoukang Palace?"

"Find someone to settle the account!"

If Mu Duer knew that he would suffer so many disasters in the palace, he might have asked the empress to take her to Rehe, especially when Concubine Chun approached her with an attitude of asking questions.At least a group of court ladies in Chuxiu Palace, all of them regretted why they were still in the Forbidden City.

"Who told you to change the menu without authorization!" If there was something to throw at hand, Wanxiu would smash it to vent her anger, but in Chuxiu Palace, she could only threaten with a loud voice.

"Mu Du'er doesn't know why the empress is angry."

"I don't know? If you don't know, why did you send Poria cocos cake!" Because she had been angry once before, Wan Xiu still couldn't get it up this time, and her face turned pale.

Seeing it, Mu Du'er wanted to say a few words of condolences, but was blocked by Wanxiu's cold expression.

"Why are you so meddlesome? Did the Empress teach you to be so ignorant?"

You can scold anyone, but you can't. After scolding the master, Mu Du'er raised his expression, and replied seriously: "This time, Mu Du'er made his own decision. If the empress wants to punish, Mu Du'er will gladly accept it, but don't take a piece of poria cocos. Cake is also related to the Queen."

"You still haven't admitted it yet!"

"What do you want my aunt to admit?" Perhaps inspired by Mu Du'er's courage, the maids in Chuxiu Palace finally spoke up. "The last time I heard from the Shoukang Palace that my mother likes to eat Poria cocos cakes, my aunt went to find the imperial chef specially for my mother..."

"Yiqin!" Mu Duer stopped coldly.

Wanxiu's expression softened, and when she remembered that she had mentioned Poria cocos cake, she was surprised that she had done too much, but she still said with a cold face: "I'll have to look at it again when I bring tomorrow's menu. "

After thinking about it for a while, Mu Duer still decided to go to Shoukang Palace alone with the meal list. The maids under him were already very dissatisfied with Concubine Chun, and I am afraid that they would inevitably quarrel when they met. Wouldn't they fall into the trap that Concubine Chun had planned with all her heart?

He exhaled, facing the dark Shoukang Palace, in fact, Mu Du'er never wanted to come again.

With a little guilt, Youxiang led Mu Du'er into Concubine Chun's bedroom.As soon as she entered the room, Wan Xiu, who was sitting at the table, looked over with a pair of beautiful eyes.

This feeling of anticipation did not move people at all.Mu Duer presented the meal list in a formal manner. "Please take a look, ma'am."

"You are very unfamiliar today."

"Before, Mu Du'er was too presumptuous and broke the rules taught by the empress."

"It's too tiring for you to stand up and talk and let Bengong lean his neck. Sit down and talk with me." Wanxiu was arrogance in the daytime, but she still couldn't hide the arrogance in her bones. "I never know how to apologize to others, but what happened today is indeed because I misunderstood you. I was a little confused at that time..."

"The empress is the master, why explain this to the slave."

"You are the aunt of Chuxiu Palace, and you are different from others." What is the difference, I am afraid that even Wanxiu has not thought about it. "I'm going to tell you the truth. My Shoukang Palace is worse than the Leng Palace. No matter how many flowers are outside, it can't shake the loneliness here. The population is so sparse, and I don't want anyone to come here in the future. It's a cold sentence." An ordinary court lady who can't answer her words."

"Today's Poria cocos cake...reminds me of some things in the palace." Dowager Chun paused for a while before speaking again. "Reminds me of Princess Ru."

Although it can't be said that they meet each other day and night, how can they think of Concubine Ru when they are both in the palace?Mu Du'er was slightly surprised, waiting for Concubine Chun to say the following.

"Have you ever tried Poria Cake? It's tasteless at all. When I was young, I always thought that Poria Cake should be so sweet that it would be greasy. Finally, a famous actor from the capital came to perform at the palace. For this reason, Ama found a peddler who sells Poria Cake to come to the mansion to make it specially." I asked the old man to make a plate for me. Who knew that the first time I ate it, I felt bland. After eating some, I didn’t want to eat it. I asked Erhe to call that person over. She loves me and will definitely help me. Get it all sorted out."

"I always thought that life should be like this. Even the night before I was going to enter the palace, she asked someone to secretly buy tuckahoe cakes and share them with me. Who would have thought that the situation would change the next day. This tuckahoe cakes are just like her love for me. Affection, tasteless, deceitful!" Wanxiu said, even her tone trembled, her right hand clasped the corner of the table tightly, leaving a deep impression.

Seeing this, Mu Duer stretched out his hand to pour the tea on the table, and handed it to Concubine Chun.

"You care about me?" Concubine Chun smiled lightly.In the past, in Mu Duer's eyes, this scene would only be considered a sneer, but now he sees the loneliness behind this expression.

"I don't need other people's sympathy, but I'm a little lonely. There are too few people who can talk in this court." Concubine Chun frowned slightly, even though she was full of melancholy, she couldn't seduce people's mind for no reason. "Muduer, can you talk to me?"

Concubine Yechun said a lot of things that day, as if she wanted to pour out all the bitterness of the past few years. She talked a lot about her childhood with Concubine Ru and her life in the palace, but she didn't say anything about the unsatisfactory things in the harem, as if her life was just It stopped before entering the palace, and then the curtain was drawn.

Mu Duer just listened, watching Concubine Chun's beaming eyebrows when she talked about interesting things, and she never forgot to help pour a cup of tea to breathe slowly when she was talking about interesting things. The false name given to him, but he really saw this woman in front of him who just wanted to talk and confide, and never concealed her emotions.

In the harem, one shouldn't talk too much, so everyone chooses to keep silent, even Mu Du'er never talks about his thoughts with other court ladies, but Princess Chun is so unprepared, telling her everything, Mu Du'er An alarm bell rang in Du'er's heart.

"I'm in a better mood." Wanxiu held a cup in her hand and sniffed the acacia flower tea, still looking energetic. "I've said so much and you only reply with a single word. No wonder you're so unpopular in the palace."

"By the way, the scent of your sachet has faded a bit. I want to replace it with new spices recently." Wanxiu said this, as if Mu Duer had willingly given the sachet to her.

After being silent for a while, Mu Duer opened his mouth. "Don't use ageratum, the sachet contains agarwood."

Wan Xiu looked at her and smiled kindly. "I see."

Mu Duer moved his lips, as if he wanted to express some emotion, but felt that the story was too pale.Her past can be called lucky, but she has never been able to forgive Xiang Ling, the woman who once tied a sachet around her waist and taught her poetry and said thousands of words to her, finally betrayed her initial trust and will The person she admired was thrown from the clouds into the mud, and the person who told her to be independent and self-improving, slapped her hard with the most sincere actions.

She also wanted to talk about this with Concubine Chun, but she didn't know how to start.

"Are you still unhappy?" Wan Xiu leaned closer to her, and suddenly reached out to caress Mu Du'er's forehead. "This wrinkle has always been an eyesore to me."

"It's nothing..." Thinking of the same answer as last time, Mu Du'er suddenly laughed out loud, with tenderness in his brows and eyes. "You've smoothed it out, ma'am."
