The gentleman is a bit cheap

Walking, strolling, and seeing beauties in the imperial garden.

Birds chirping and chirping sounded in my ears.The leaves are rustling, and spring is in the heart.

As far as the eye can see, it is full of emerald green.As far as the ear can see, it is full of clarity.Wherever the nose touches, it is full of refreshment.

However, in this imperial garden, there is a little more disharmonious noise...

"I heard that there is a palace called 'Jianshan Palace' near here. It seems that there is a noble person living there?"

"I know this, it seems to be someone called 'Xiao Guiren'. It seems that she is still the eldest lady of General Xiao's family who is above the court, from the second-rank official!"

"Tsk tsk, her family background is quite impressive, but it's a pity that that nobleman Xiao is not blessed. —— I heard that on the first night she entered the palace as an attendant, she "cuckoo cried blood", which greatly disturbed His Majesty's holy car .”

"Oh, this is amazing..."

"Hey, by the way, it seems...she wasn't drafted?"

"Who said it wasn't?...Eh, I heard that she was carried into the palace in a small sedan chair just like those low-level actors who play the piano and sing songs.—— My elder sister who is the dowry maid served in front of sister Yabi in the Xiangyun Palace. The Xiangyun Palace is the place where nobleman Xiao stayed when he first entered the palace. But I don't know why, but only the second On the second day, His Majesty dismissed all the eunuchs and maids in front of her, leaving only her two dowry maids to serve her, and then moved her into the remote and lonely "Jianshan Palace". To this day."

"So it's like this... Eh? Sisters and sisters, do you think that the disease she got from nobleman Xiao is contagious?..."

"Hey! This is amazing! From now on, we have to go around a bit. ——I'd rather go around the distance than pass by the mountain palace. Really, in case of plague... tsk tsk , Sister, I... I don’t want to be like that nobleman Xiao, with little fortune and little life...”

"Hee hee hee... That's the case. Who says it's not... Anyway, I wish I could give birth to a dragonborn as soon as possible..."

"If my sister gets promoted someday, don't forget my sister and others."

"Naturally, we are sisters after all. Hehehehe..."

"Oh, that's right! I just remembered something... Let me tell you guys quietly. In fact, that nobleman Xiao, on the surface, said that he came in to serve the emperor, but in fact, he was just summoned by the emperor. A 'hostage' who came into the palace was used as a restraint on General Xiao, so that he would not dare to act rashly. After all, General Xiao holds the military power and is also the father-in-law of the ten princes of the Wu Xiangguo and the Protecting General. Well, if the two of them join forces and plot something, it will be a great disaster to overthrow Chao Gang..."

"Shhh!...in the harem, don't talk about state affairs!—Be careful, the walls have ears!..."

The leaves rustled and trembled in the wind.

"The part of the partition wall is indeed pricked up. And there are not only one, but six ears..."

Before anyone arrives, the sound arrives first.

The person who spoke was Yaoyue.

Lian Xing smiled softly, and echoed: "Isn't it... These six ears are still very sensitive and protruding ears...."

While talking, Yaoyue and Lianxing carefully supported Xiao Xuanzhi, who was trembling and flabbergasted, turned around the rockery, and came to the people gathered there who were gossiping.

The people on the other side were all shivering and trembling.

After stabilizing his mind, the girl who seemed to be the oldest among those who broke their mouths turned around and stepped forward.

Seeing that she didn't show courtesy or blessing, she only raised eyebrows and pretended to be stern and said: "I am a talented person from Xiuyuan Palace, who is here?!"

Seeing the plain clothes of the three people who came, the talented Hu talent guessed in his heart that the status of the young master of their family did not seem to be higher than his own.

If it doesn't work out, it's just a servant or girl who has been out of favor for many years.

Thinking of this, Hu Cairen raised his jaw slightly, and his eyes seemed to be getting more and more arrogant.

Yaoyue gave a narrow smile, and then gently let go of Xiao Xuanzhi's arm, stepped forward and slightly bent his knees, and blessed that talented man, and said in a melodious and melodious voice: "Your servant has met Mrs. Hu, it is auspicious for Mr. Hu.

——The two slaves and servants are serving in front of nobleman Xiao in Jianshan Palace.This one is Xiao Guiren from the servant's family. "

Hu Cairen immediately trembled all over, his knees were weak, and he staggered back three steps, almost falling to the ground from the shock of these words.

As the saying goes, "the first level of officials crushes people to death."

In this orderly harem, it is the same.

Fortunately, her servants quickly supported her, which prevented her from losing her composure in front of others.

The few people in the back were also restless and hurriedly made blessings and saluted——

"My younger sister is Xiuyuan Palace... Cai, Cai daughter Zhang... I have met... Sister Xiao... Sister Xiao... wishful and auspicious..."

"Embroidered kite maiden...Wang's family...Sister Xiao is wishful and auspicious...Ruyi and auspicious..."

"Xiuyuan Palace chooses Sun's servant, and met Sister Xiao...Sister Xiao is wishful and auspicious..."

"Xiu...Xiuyuan Gongniang...Miss Xu, I have seen, I have seen Sister Xiao...Ah!——Sister Xiao is auspicious! No! Ruyi is auspicious! Ruyi is auspicious!..."

Hu Cairen braced his body there, looked straight at Yaoyue, and said in a trembling voice: "You... When did you come here?!..."

Yaoyue smiled slightly, turned around and supported Xiao Xuanzhi's elbow, and said in a manly voice: "If you are a talented person, the slaves and servants came with our young master not very early, but not too late either. —— In short, what should be heard and what should not be heard, has been heard."

Xiao Xuanzhi nodded vainly, smiled slightly, and said softly: "You guys are well-informed, and you know that my father is a second-rank general above the court."

As soon as this statement came out, the horror of the people on the opposite side became even greater.

It's just like the delicate flowers that are blown by the rain and the wind on the branches, staggering to and fro, the branches trembling, stumbling to the ground, trying to stand unsteadily.

Hu Cairen's face was pale, and he pretended to be calm and said in shock: "You?!——What do you want to do?!——"

Xiao Xuanzhi smiled slightly, lowered his eyebrows and narrowed his eyes and said: "I probably didn't hear what I said today."

Hu Cairen heard the words, although he was a little relieved, but still panicked and dared not speak.I'm afraid that this nobleman Xiao sells murder in his gourd.

After all, in this harem, the so-called "favor" is not sold casually, and naturally, it is not accepted casually either.

Received a share of kindness from others, if they fail to do well, they will give it back a hundredfold, stand up for that person, and act against their will as paving stones for their ultimate superiority.

Xiao Xuanzhi stared at Hu Cairen's black and white complexion with a funny face, and in his heart, he naturally guessed the panic and worry in her heart at the moment.

Therefore, Xiao Xuanzhi shook his head, and said with a gentle smile: "Good sister, don't be afraid. I will not harm you, nor will I plot against you.

I just want to tell you a word, in this deep palace, it is no better than the folks, and it is also no better than the boudoir in your home.

Here, it's really not a good place to gossip.Any word you say may come true and be used by others. "

The people on Hu Cairen's side were finally relieved a little bit, and the expressions on their faces also softened a little.

Hu Cairen nodded, lowered his eyebrows and blessed Xiao Xuanzhi pleasingly, and said timidly: "Sister, thank you for your enlightenment..."

Xiao Xuanzhi smiled slightly, shook Yao Yue and Lian Xing's hands lightly, moved swiftly in front of Hu Cairen and the others, nodded to everyone, and Fang said softly to Hu Cairen, "But I don’t know, how old is my sister this year?”

Hu Cairen lowered his eyebrows and said, "I'm 16 years old..."

Xiao Xuanzhi glanced at the others behind her, and continued: "Where are they?"

Hu Cairen said: "Among them, the oldest is also sixteen, but his birthday is three to five months younger than mine. The youngest has just passed his 14th birthday."

Xiao Xuanzhi nodded, clapped his hands and said, "That's it... Now, my sister's 19th birthday is over.

The three to five years of food that I have eaten more than you, can't support my own stomach? ——If I go there again, won’t all my meals these years be eaten into the stomach of a dog? "

After all, Xiao Xuanzhi smiled gently.

When Hu Cairen heard her joke, he burst into laughter after all: "Sister Xiao was joking."

Xiao Xuanzhi spread out his hands, stretched a lot, then shook his hands, and looked around for a while.

Immediately, he took a look at a nearby poplar tree with thick branches, flew up on it with hands and feet, and picked five leaves that were in good shape.

After coming down, under the astonishment of the few people opposite, she gave five leaves to each of Hu Cairen, Xu Niangzi, Sun Xuanshi, Zhang Cainu, and Wang Cainu.

After dividing the leaves, Xiao Xuanzhi wiped his hands leisurely, raised his eyebrows with a slight smile, and said softly, seemingly indifferently: "I know, you were still jealous before.

It's just because I have caught your handle in my hands, but your hands have not caught my handle. ——Now, you have seen it, but are you relieved? "

Hu Cairen stared wide-eyed, nodded, and said calmly with trembling lips: "Sister Xiao why... why is she pretending to be sick to avoid favor?... Sister Xiao is born beautiful, if she is favored, she must be It's skyrocketing!..."
