foxy charmer

The golden autumn passed slowly, and at the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, Melo was even more lazy to move. She would often sit on the kang bed for a whole day with a small blanket on her legs, or settle accounts or read a book, in short, she didn't like to move.

Qingying's matter is over, as Qiu Baishao said, even though Hubu Shangshu was deeply saddened by his daughter's death, when he sent his daughter to the Three Kings' Mansion, he was an infallible party of the Three Kings, and now it is difficult to change the master. up.

Melo couldn't help sighing occasionally, "The Qingying Scenery of Four Seasons is always well written, and it has won the Queen's appreciation."

Qiu Baishao was very upset when she heard this, she didn't like Melo's mention of Qingying, so she changed the subject, "Speaking of talented women, last time when my lord and I went to congratulate the sixth lord on his birthday, I met a woman named Jiu Son, it is said that he is proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and can learn about the past and the present, has Sister Mei ever heard of it?"

Melo thought for a while, "If there is such a person in the capital, I should have heard of it." She asked curiously, "Did he come from another place?"

Seeing that she stopped talking about Qingying, Qiu Baishao immediately deepened the topic. She leaned close to Melo's ear, and told Melo the prince's secret without hesitation.

"What!" Melo turned pale in shock, she covered her red lips and shook her head, "You can't talk nonsense about this kind of thing, if it gets out, it will destroy the brotherhood between the prince and the sixth prince."

"The lord told me personally," Qiu Baishao whispered, "I know the seriousness, and I only told Sister Mei."

"Oh, that's right," she remembered what Yu Chili told her yesterday, "The lord said that the queen is going to hold a chrysanthemum appreciation banquet. It's the end of October. This is the last crop of chrysanthemums. Sister Mei has to prepare to enter the palace in three days."

Melo waved her hand and said sleepily, "I don't want to go, there are so many rules in the palace, it's really annoying, you can go for me, and you can also meet the empress on the way, you haven't seen her yet. "

"Sister Mei even refuted the Queen's face, I'm afraid she will be unhappy."

"That means I'm sick," Melo didn't care much. "Anyway, it's no secret that I'm in poor health. The whole capital knows it. It's normal to get sick again."

Qiu Baishao still felt that something was wrong, "Sister Mei thinks it's troublesome, but I can go for you, I'm afraid that my sister always calls me sick like this, making people think you're useless." She sat forward, put her hands on the On Melo's lap, "My lord is very popular now, and now I marry my daughter to be the princess, and soon I will be the queen. What if someone is jealous of the position of the third princess and uses Sister Mei's body to make a fuss?"

"No." Melo glanced at her unexpectedly, "It's not a serious illness for me. If there is such a day, I'll be 'cured'."

She smiled, "Don't worry too much."

Qiu Baishao thinks about it too, abandoning a concubine is a big deal, as long as sister Mei doesn't make any big mistakes, she shouldn't be divorced.

"Okay, then I'll go there on behalf of Sister Mei," she said.

Melo nodded and sighed, "Sometimes I really envy those concubines who are free and at ease. They don't have to worry about serving anyone, and don't need to look at anyone's face. They can do whatever they want in the yard by themselves."

Qiu Baishao covered her lips and smiled, "We've only been married for less than half a year, and sister Mei is looking forward to becoming a widow?"

Melo also smiled, "Who doesn't envy a widow who is well-clothed and well-fed, and lives happier than a princess." She tilted her head, looked at Qiu Baishao, "It's disrespectful, if the prince... I will let you You live in the Haitang Pavilion, saving you half an hour of going back and forth every day, and your feet are broken."

The teacup that had just been picked up was unsteadily dropped by Qiu Baishao and fell back on the table, making a porcelain sound.She stuck to the veil to cover half of her face, her cheeks were as red as rouge, and then she gave a sharp and anxious voice: "Sister Mei!"

This sudden shyness made Melo dazed for a moment, and it took a moment to realize what Qiu Baishao was ashamed of.

Mello was also embarrassed.She lowered her head, coughed a few times in embarrassment, fixed her eyes on Qiu Baishao's feet, and said softly, "If you don't like it, I won't be like that in the future..."

This shy and timid gaze should have been light and fluffy, but it fell on Qiu Baishao's eyes, but she felt that there was something hot and heavy on her feet.

She flinched, her toes curled up unconsciously, and she hid her back.

"No, no dislike." She bit her lip and tightly clenched the handkerchief with her fingers, fearing that Mello would mistake her shyness for rejection, so she stretched out her foot that had just retracted a little, wiped the ground, and slowly landed on the side of Melo's shoe.

Obviously just moved his feet, but Qiu Baishao's heart was beating like a drum nervously.Her heart palpitations were severe, and the soft and slippery memories of last night reappeared on her toes.

"I like it very much..." She looked away in embarrassment, and her breath was a little messy, "With Sister Mei, I like everything..."

Even though she has been in love many times, sister Mei is always guiding her in bed love.Before this, Qiu Baishao had no idea that women could do this kind of thing.

Melo couldn't listen to such blunt words. There was shame in her eyes, but because the words were so sweet, her eyes were still full of obvious joy.

She held back for a long time, before finally choking out a stammering response, "You... just like it." Xu felt that this was too blunt, so the reserved lady of the family closed her eyes and forced herself to add a sentence , "I think you can...be more comfortable..."

Melo has never said such a thing in broad daylight in her life, and she is about to be buried in the ground.

Qiu Baishao had heard a lot, and it was Yu Chili who asked her, but at that time, she only felt dazed and embarrassed, and didn't understand what it meant, and she didn't realize it until she was with Melo.

The two have gotten used to the usual intimacy, but when it came to such a topic, they both blushed and sat with each other in shame for a long while, and it took a long time before they diverted the conversation to other matters.

When the two love each other, there will be a hair-trigger.

This is very different from getting along with Yu Chili. Qiu Baishao leaves Haitang Pavilion every day with a top-heavy head and feet. Little things like a smile can easily stir her heartstrings, making her unable to control her mind.

Satisfied and exhausted, when she returned to Baishaoyuan and saw Yu Chili, she became even more impatient and disgusted.

If Yu Chili hadn't come to her place, she would have stayed in Haitang Pavilion.

Serving the prince is official duty, and getting along with Sister Mei is spending time with your lover. Anyone would find the former boring, especially Qiu Baishao.

She remembered Melo's joke today, so it seems that those concubines are really enviable, they don't have to serve any masters, they can play with whoever they want.

Qiu Baishao sighed, not only sister Mei, she also wanted to be a widow.

Yu Chili noticed Qiu Baishao's uneasiness, took her hand and asked, "What's the matter? Are you feeling unwell, and you don't have much energy on your face."

"It's nothing," Qiu Baishao reacted, and smiled, "Here comes the monthly letter, and his complexion is dark."

"Did you come to the monthly letter?" Yu Chili said unexpectedly, "Why so much earlier."

How can Qiu Baishao say that she really doesn't want to go to bed tonight, she just said on the face, "My concubine's monthly letters are always like this, the time is not on time, it's not very smooth." She said softly, "Today I'm afraid I won't be able to serve the prince in the evening, why don't you go to Sister Wang's place to have a look, she spent a lot of time taking care of Sister Liu before."

Yu Chili thought about it and nodded, "Ms. Wang, Minister of the Ministry of Industry... OK, then I'll go and see her."

"Farewell to the prince." Qiu Baishao welcomed him away with a smile, her eyes became colder as the man's back got farther away.

Mr. Wang, Minister of Industry...

She sneered and repeated it in her heart, not knowing whether she should be sad that the woman didn't even deserve a name in the eyes of her husband, or should she be proud that she could control a man like Yu Chili in the palm of her hand.

No matter what, these have nothing to do with her, as long as she enjoys the glory and wealth that Yu Chili brought her, she doesn't care about the rest at all.

Qiu Baishao sent off the third prince, went back to the house and began to choose the clothes and jewelry that the queen would enter the palace the day after tomorrow. It was the first time she met the queen, she had to be as obedient as possible and not to attract attention.

Just as he was thinking about matters that might need to be dealt with, there was a notification from the maid of Haitang Pavilion at the door.

She put down her clothes, turned her head and asked, "What's the matter, what is Sister Mei's order?"

The servant girl bowed and handed her a sachet, "This is from the princess, she said you might need it."

Qiu Baishao took it suspiciously and opened it, and saw a few flower notes inside, took it out to see, each flower note was inscribed with a few small poems, the titles were chrysanthemum, autumn, lake, beauty, etc., all of which were plum blossoms. Luo guessed that there might be visual problems at the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Banquet.

After being reminded like this, Qiu Baishao came to her senses, the queen held a banquet, and the women's family members would not really just drink tea and enjoy the flowers, and would love poetry and performing arts when they were interested.

Holding a few pieces of flower paper, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Sister Mei suggested something, otherwise, with her talent and learning, it would really be a joke.

This is where Melo attracts Qiu Baishao. As the queen mother said that day, as the first wife, Melo may not be as charming and charming as the concubine in the mansion. , she is always thoughtful and considerate everywhere.

Yu Chili's love is like the sunset, brilliant and dazzling, but it is too high and far away. He never really lowered his head to see what the dry land of Qiu Baishao needs.Melo is different, she is the spring rain, living on the high and pure clouds, but she is willing to come down and land on the cracked dry land to soothe every inch of suffering in the world.

Only the phoenix is ​​worthy of the brilliance of the sunset. Obviously, Qiu Baishao is not a phoenix. She is a small flower curled up in the hard ground. Even if she tries to make herself bloom beautifully, her roots are rooted in the soil. She comes from Under the ground, no matter how it grows up, it cannot grow above the sky.

What flowers need is rainwater, no matter how gorgeous the sunset is, it has nothing to do with it.

Qiu Baishao memorized the poems written by Merlot for her, and asked someone to inquire about the preferences of the participants of the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Banquet, and made full preparations. .

Qiu Baishao doesn't know much about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she is quite good at how to please the superiors.

Qiu Baishao, who specially learned about the Queen's likes and dislikes, got many rewards, and she went to the Haitang Pavilion as soon as she came back, intending to share the rewards she got with Melo.

Qiu Baishao was particularly fond of the enamel bracelet on her hand, which was originally put on by the empress herself, she returned the bracelet on the way back, wrapped it in a handkerchief and prepared it for Merlot to wear later.

This bracelet is mainly gold, blue and white. She squeezed it in her hand and looked at it, thinking of Melo's hands, slender, elegant, with a bit of pampered pearls, very different from her bone-like hands. Fit for hands resting on heaps of gold and silver treasures.

Qiu Baishao loves money, if she has a golden mountain of jewels, emeralds, emeralds and silks, she is willing to put Merlot on top of these treasures.Beauty and treasure, if the two are combined into one, there is nothing more pleasing to the eye than this. Qiu Baishao can look at it with her chin up all day.

With a happy and expectant mood, she got off the carriage and went straight to Haitang Pavilion, but was told by the maid at the door: Melo was announced into the palace by the queen mother in the afternoon.

Qiu Baishao frowned suspiciously, looked up at the sky, now at the beginning of the unitary hour, it is time for foreign family members to leave the palace at this point.

"Then I'll wait here for a while." Presumably sister Mei would be back soon.

But sister Mei missed the Queen's Chrysanthemum Appreciation Banquet today because of her illness. What is it for, so that the Queen Mother can bring a princess who is lying on a hospital bed into the palace to meet her.

Thinking back to the first time I saw the Queen Mother, Qiu Baishao was surprised at that time that Sister Mei was personally chosen by the Queen Mother to be the third prince's concubine, even if she was ordered to enter the palace to beat her, it was just to vent her anger on Sister Mei.But Sister Mei was ill at that time, and her complexion was scary. The Queen Mother neither asked her to go back to rest, nor asked the imperial doctor to show her, so she forced Sister Mei to accompany her for two hours.If you really like sister Mei, how can you be so indifferent.

Suspicions that I hadn't thought about at the time surfaced again.Qiu Baishao frowned, she was sitting in the Haitang Pavilion, and when it was dark, Melo didn't come back.
