Tangled

On March 24, the emperor moved to the palace for a routine spring hunt, accompanied by many concubines.

There are not many palaces in the palace, so they are divided according to their positions, and many people live in the same palace.Su Qingwan likes to be quiet, making an exception and living alone in the first palace.Concubine Zhang De lived in the main palace of Chunhua Palace, Mu Xiaoxiao in the east palace, and Ruan Meiren in the west palace.Zhou Zhaoyi lived in the main palace of Qiushi Palace, Zhang Meiren in the east palace, and Zheng Baolin in the west palace.

"This spring hunt, the accompanying people are really unexpected." Mu Luoluo stood in front of the closet, arranging her clothes, while the little maids outside were busy in and out.

"The virtuous concubine is good at writing and doesn't like to hunt, so it's not uncommon for her not to come. The concubine wanted to accompany her, but she had to stay in the palace because of the wind and cold due to the changing seasons. Zhaoyi had just recovered from a serious illness, so it was reasonable that she couldn't accompany her. Going forward Now, it's the fourth rank, and there's nothing you can do about it." Su Qingwan lay on the couch, propped her head and watched Mu Luoluo busy with her work, "Why do you do it yourself, it's better to just call a maid over."

"Does Concubine Shu feel that the servants are ineffective?" Mu Luoluo turned her head with a smile.

"That's right, you're just busy packing your clothes and ignoring me, so I can't even match a piece of clothing?" Su Qingwan said coquettishly.

"After tidying up first, I'll stay with you, or else you can watch the mess?" Mu Luoluo said, and his subordinates were not idle either.

"I'm looking at you, not someone else." Su Qingwan knew Mu Luoluo's temper, and she would definitely not stop until she finished cleaning up. "However, concubine De will accompany you, so many people didn't expect it."

"Could it be that Concubine Shu is accompanying you, many people have thought of it?" Mu Luoluo laughed.

"Concubine Shu's body is getting better and better every day. After five years of raising her, it can be considered that she has returned with a lot of medicine." Su Qingwan saw that Mu Luoluo was almost cleaned up, so she sat up straight, but her eyes were still on Mu Luoluo. It must be indispensable."

"Did you release this news intentionally or unintentionally?" Mu Luoluo put away the last piece of clothing, closed the door and turned around, walked up to Su Qingwan, and kissed her lightly on the forehead.

"Of course I have intentions, otherwise who would have the ability." Su Qingwan put her arms around Mu Luoluo's waist, "If the news is released, we have to say whether it is necessary or not."

"Zheng Baolin's accompanying driver, does it have something to do with you?" Mu Luoluo raised her hand and pinched the tip of Su Qingwan's nose, then hugged Su Qingwan with her backhand.

"Isn't it because you were too sharp when you first entered the palace, and you attracted some attention to yourself and Xiaoxiao." Su Qingwan raised her head, resting her chin on Mu Luoluo's abdomen, "You don't allow me to interfere with what I do."

"Yes, my Concubine Shu." Mu Luoluo smiled lightly, then lowered her head and kissed Su Qingwan.

The maids in the room were sweeping and sweeping, and there was a lot of voices everywhere. Although Mu Xiaoxiao didn't like to be quiet, she didn't like such a chaotic environment, so she took Zhu'er out to seek some leisure, leaving Zhen'er alone Dot the house up and down.

The palace was built for spring hunting. You can see the hunting grounds from a distance without walking too far. Princes, emperors and grandchildren who have long been unable to restrain themselves are competing in riding and shooting in the hunting grounds.

"My lord, have you learned how to ride a horse?" Zhu'er asked, walking behind Mu Xiaoxiao's side.

"No, it can only be unbearable to fall off the horse." Mu Xiaoxiao smiled wryly, maybe because she had a bad temper with the horse, after all, as soon as she got up, the horse wanted to throw herself off.

"Most of the horses in the palace are stallions, and there may be mares with a gentle temperament in the hunting grounds, which may be easier to ride." Zhu'er looked at Mu Xiaoxiao who looked depressed, and couldn't help smiling.

"If I can avoid it, I'll avoid it." Mu Xiaoxiao glanced at Zhu'er, raised her hand and flicked her forehead, "Laughing at the master, you should be punished."

"How can I have a slave." Zhu'er was still smiling, but when she turned around, she saw Ruan Meiren approaching gracefully, "The slave has seen Ruan Meiren."

"Greetings to Mu Jieyu." Ruan Meiren blessed Mu Xiaoxiao.

"Sister has met Sister Ruan." Mu Xiaoxiao hastily returned the salute, she had a good impression of Ruan Meiren, "Sister also come out for a walk to relieve boredom?"

"Yeah, it's too noisy in the room." Ruan Meiren smiled, and walked side by side with Mu Xiaoxiao, "Jieyu hasn't been sleeping well lately? I've mixed a tranquilizing incense and sent it to Jieyu tonight."

Mu Xiaoxiao was taken aback for a moment, and then remembered that Ruan Meiren's presence here was also related to her, "How can I bother my sister to go, I'll just send someone to get it."

Ruan Meiren turned her head when she heard the words, and stared at Mu Xiaoxiao for a while. Mu Xiaoxiao was looked at inexplicably, but she didn't dare to speak rashly, for fear of making a wrong step.

"Actually, it was Concubine Shu who asked me to come?" Ruan Meiren waved her hands behind her, and Zhu'er and Ruan Meiren's personal servant girl retreated knowingly.

Mu Xiaoxiao didn't speak, she didn't know whether to admit it or not.

"Don't be nervous. Since Concubine Shu didn't remind you too much, she must have guessed that I can know." Ruan Meiren smiled, "I was born as a medical girl from the Chu family, and I was implicated by the young lady's mother's family. Now there is no one in the palace. There is nothing to rely on, Concubine Shu knows the kindness of encounter, if you don't repay it, how can you repay the kindness?"

"The doctor girl from the Chu family?" Mu Xiaoxiao looked sideways, not quite understanding.

"You are well protected." Ruan Meiren glanced in Zhu'er's direction, and then smiled softly, "Go ahead for a walk, it's my first time visiting the Spring Hunting Palace, and I'm not very familiar with it."

"That's good." Mu Xiaoxiao also smiled, she is not protected, she is beautiful, some things, if the elder sister doesn't tell her, she naturally has no way of knowing, but why bother, knowing Too many and tired.

"See Concubine Shu." When I arrived at the racetrack, I happened to meet Su Qingwan who had changed into a narrow dress.

"Get up." Su Qingwan raised her hand, then took the reins handed over by Mu Luoluo, and in Mu Xiaoxiao's low exclamation, she got on the horse, her skirts fluttering, neat and sassy.

"Concubine Shu is worthy of being the queen of generals." Ruan Meiren praised.

"When I was young, my father also taught the art of riding and archery, but I was weak and didn't practice much." Su Qingwan sat on the horseback and let out a long sigh of relief. She hadn't rode a horse or whipped it for many years, and it was almost too late. Forget what kind of scenery is on horseback.

"Isn't Mu Jieyu together?" Ruan Meiren also took the rein handed over by the maid, but when she turned around she saw Mu Xiaoxiao standing where she was, refusing to take the rein from Zhu'er's hand.

"I..." Mu Xiaoxiao looked at the docile mare in front of her, not knowing how to refuse.

"Come on, little master, I'm leading this servant." Zhu'er smiled slightly, and then raised her hand to signal Mu Xiaoxiao that she would never let go.

"Forget it." Mu Xiaoxiao accepted her fate, stepped on the footsteps brought by the servant, and climbed onto the horse's back.

"Hasn't Mu Jieyu usually performed a bow?" Ruan Meiren asked with her head turned.

"Never." Mu Xiaoxiao shook her head. The Mu family's concubine is still an unfavorable concubine. How has she ever participated in those things that the ladies play.

Ruan Meiren is also sensible. Seeing this situation, she guessed most of it, "When I was at home in the past, I also accompanied the young lady to perform a bow. How about teaching you by example?"

"Alright." Mu Xiaoxiao nodded. Before coming here, she had heard that during spring hunting, men hunted women to kill, but she couldn't even ride a horse well, let alone let her elder sister teach her how to kill.

Mu Luoluo glanced back, then raised her head to look at Su Qingwan again.

"Don't worry, the Ruan family has its own decision in its mind." Su Qingwan smiled lightly and said, "The Chu family's horoscope is weak. When I first entered the mansion, maybe I bumped into something. At night, I was restless and dreamy. The Chu family sent the medical girl into the mansion, and they did not expect to be favored. Later, when the Chu family incident happened and the Chu family was demoted, she did not suffer too much. She was not favored in the first place, but now she is more desolate."

"The Chu family's incident should have nothing to do with the Chu family. How could it be demoted to a commoner?" Mu Luoluo walked slowly beside Su Qingwan, pulling the bridle from time to time.

"Chu's temperament is strong, she firmly believes that her mother's family is innocent, and she is outspoken. Her Majesty may have collided with her words. Originally, Her Majesty was very troubled by the Chu family's affairs, but Chu's turmoil ended like this." Su Qingwan sighed, " The Chu family can also be regarded as a scholarly family, and my father still wanted to marry the Chu family back then."

"Above the court, things change rapidly. In the end, it's just the east wind overpowering the west wind. Qing Wan is so familiar, "From your tone, it seems that you feel sorry for the Chu family?"

"The former Shangshu of the Ministry of War had contacts with his father, and he had heard his father mention it. He was an upright man. Father was unexpected when something happened to the Chu family." Su Qingwan stretched out her hand towards Mu Luoluo. The man held Su Qingwan's hand and used it to get back on the horse.

Su Qingwan handed over the reins to Mu Luoluo, and leaned back into Mu Luoluo's arms.

"There are rumors that the affairs of the Chu family are inseparable from the Zhang family."

·

During the spring hunting, the emperor led the clan's children to hunt in the forest, accompanied by concubines, concubines and female family members, and killed them in the palace.

Although Ruan Meiren tried her best to teach Mu Xiaoxiao how to perform a bow, but Mu Xiaoxiao couldn't ride a horse steadily, let alone perform a bow, so she struggled for several days and was still unable to compete.

"You haven't come into contact with it before. Now it's not easy not to fall off the horse. Don't be impatient. Take it slowly." Concubine Zhang Defei, who was pregnant, was also unable to play and sat on the sidelines to watch.

"I would like to follow your mother's instruction." Mu Xiaoxiao nodded with a smile, and looked at the field. At this time, the game had not started, and only Zheng Baolin and Princess Li were practicing in the field.

While chatting gossip, Su Qingwan, who had changed her clothes, came out gracefully, with a rare narrow waist and narrow sleeves, giving her an air of sophistication.

"Sister Concubine Shu." Concubine Zhang De nodded slightly.

"Sister De Concubine Ann." Su Qingwan blessed Fu's body, then waved her hand, signaling that Mu Xiaoxiao didn't have to get up to greet her.

"Your Majesty will come back from hunting in a while, and I will watch your younger sisters perform the bow, are you ready?" Concubine De raised her hand, and immediately a little maid brought a tray to serve tea.

"Left and right are just for fun. My body is weak, and now I can make up for it. How can I compare with you sisters?" Su Qingwan smiled lightly and shook her head, took a sip of tea and handed the remaining half cup to her back Mu Luoluo.

Following Su Qingwan's movements, Concubine De glanced at Mu Luoluo, then frowned slightly, but said nothing in the end.

The female relatives of various families came to the scene one after another, and most of Mu Xiaoxiao didn't know her, so she couldn't help being restrained. Fortunately, Concubine Zhang De introduced her in a low voice, and fortunately she never lost her manners.
