calm to light

The author has something to say: school has started, there are many things to do, this week may not be updated until the weekend

In the next chapter, the frivolous behavior of youth should come to an end, and Ling Rong will also go to the palace

Concubine Hua was forced to abandon her car to protect the commander-in-chief, and invited the queen mother to fight against the queen because of concubine Li's madness. In the end, concubine Li was thrown into the cold palace, and concubine Hua also lost the right to assist the sixth palace.But in the end it didn't make a big deal, Concubine Hua just lost power for a while, so Zhen Huan and Mei Zhuang were not satisfied with the result, but no matter how unwilling they were, that was the only way to go.After all, Concubine Hua is not so easy to deal with.

The scorching summer is finally here. Even though there will be strong winds and thunder and lightning from time to time, the sweltering heat still dominates, making many people in the harem uncomfortable who want to be pampered.And often when such a season came, it was the time when the Holy Majesty took everyone in the harem to the Yuanmingyuan to escape the summer heat.

In previous years, apart from the empress dowagers, some of the emperor's favorite concubines were able to go to Yuanmingyuan, but Concubine Hua went there every year. I don't know how this year is?

Thinking of the kind smile on Concubine Hua's face when she visited the Empress Dowager, the Queen's reluctance to forbear when the Empress Dowager stopped her from moving Concubine Hua, and Concubine Hua even if she was given more power to assist the six palaces, even if she was already like other concubines in the harem It's been a long time since the Holy Majesty still looks proud.

Concubine Hua...she will still go, maybe she can regain the favor in the Old Summer Palace, just like in the dream, Concubine Hua is always smiling so proudly, I just remember Her pride forgot her end.

Sure enough, Mei Zhuang came to me in the afternoon, saying that Cao Guiren tricked the emperor to finally decide to bring Concubine Hua, and Mei Zhuang was so angry that he poured a lot of tea in my palace and suppressed the fire.

"Sister, why are you angry? Concubine Hua's rise will happen sooner or later." I looked at Mei Zhuang, as long as she ran into something about Concubine Hua, she was prone to be irritable. It won’t be as enjoyable as it used to be.”

Even if it is the holy grace that needs to be emphasized, the feeling at the bottom of the process is not pleasant.

"I know," Meizhuang looked at me with a calm expression, and sighed, "I just didn't expect it to be so fast. With Concubine Hua going with me, I don't know what will be recruited in the palace to escape the summer heat?"

"What are you afraid of?" Mei Zhuang's worry was so obvious. Indeed, when will the person who is missed by Concubine Hua feel at ease?But, "Didn't Sister Wan go with her sister?" No matter what happened, it was better to have sisters than to be alone.

It's like the false pregnancy in the dream, but I may not be able to go to the palace.

"Yes." Thinking of having Zhen Huan by his side, Mei Zhuang was somewhat relieved, but it was a pity, "I think my sister will go too. Originally, the emperor wanted to invite you, but the empress said that you are someone close to the empress dowager." , it's up to the queen mother to decide. But it's just a little more troublesome, the queen mother will take you with her at regular intervals."

I laughed and said nothing when I heard this. The queen mother said "Rong'er, you are really smart." That day, it was a sincere compliment and even took precautions. The queen mother always wanted the various forces in the harem to interact Balanced and convenient for the management of the middle palace. Zhen Huan and Meizhuang, as the new party, are not weak, and I have always been on good terms with them. If I... will pass, I am afraid it will be difficult to control.Not surprisingly, the queen mother will not take me with her.

There is no major event in the Old Summer Palace, but Meizhuang is likely to be plotted against.However, under the intervention of the Empress Dowager, I may not go to the Old Summer Palace halfway as in my dream, so will Meizhuang be as in my dream?

But what if...

"Sister, I don't know if I can go," I looked at Mei Zhuang and wanted to refute my words, before she took the lead and said, "I just have a word, I want to say to my sister."

Seeing her asking with her eyes, she didn't notice anything at all, but was puzzled by my solemnity, "Shooting a snake and hitting seven inches, sister, tell me, if Concubine Hua wants to harm you, what should she do is the easiest way for you to be fooled?"

"This?" Since it was the thing she was least prepared for, she really couldn't think of it for a while.

"I think the most difficult thing to guard against is what we care about the most. Because we care about it, we are not as cautious as usual. What is my sister looking forward to most now?" Flushed, he hesitated for a long time before speaking, "I only spoke because of you, don't laugh at me. What I am most looking forward to now is... the emperor's heir."

"Don't laugh at me," Mei Zhuang continued without waiting for me to speak, "I just think that children are very reliable in this harem."

After having a child, it is not normal, but... "What's so funny about this, it's a human thing. I just thought that since my sister is looking forward to this matter, she should be more involved in this matter." Be careful with things."

Although I was so nervous that I hadn't written off my curiosity yet, Mei Zhuang still responded very cautiously, "Don't worry, Rong'er, I will be careful." If she has a child, she will definitely do her best to protect the child thoughtful.

When I saw Mei Zhuang, I thought about it, thinking that if Mei Zhuang was on guard, things like fake pregnancy and competing for favor would not be as easy as in the dream.It's just that I don't know how simple Mei Zhuang is, how could he think of such a trick as fake pregnancy to compete for favor.

"But Rong'er, you will definitely go with us. With you by then, what am I afraid of?"

"But I don't want to go." This was a lie, but since Sister Mei didn't know what the Queen Mother might consider, it would be good for her to keep her pure impression of the Queen Mother.

"Why?" Mei Zhuang seemed to have thought of something, surprised, "Could it be that you still refuse to be favored?" If you do not receive favor for a long time in this harem, even with the blessing of the Queen Mother, it is not a long-term solution, it is a wise strategy .

"How could it be?" How could I still hold such naive thoughts, "It's just that it's not the time yet." If the time really comes, even if I don't want to, I won't be able to avoid it.

"You always make up your own mind," Meizhuang saw that I said it plainly, without the slightest worry, "It's just that this time you go, I'm afraid you will serve the Empress Dowager more, the Old Summer Palace is cool and the scenery is pleasant, why should my sister be here?" What about the heat in this palace?"

"I just like being in the palace," I began to cheat, "All the important people left and right, this palace is not really comfortable."

"You girl, you don't shy away from your mouth!"

"I told my sister, what are you afraid of?"

······

Meizhuang was going to make some salutes and left after a short stay, but the Empress Dowager Palace sent someone to call me, saying that Aunt Zhuxi was busy going to the palace to escape the summer heat, and asked me to help serve the Empress Dowager.

It turned out that the Empress Dowager asked me to be exempted from serving today, so she summoned me first, because I was afraid she had something to say.

"Girl," I met the Empress Dowager's half-closed eyes as soon as I entered the door, "Here we come."

"The concubine thinks that the Empress Dowager's palace must be very busy," I looked at the people running around outside the door, and continued with a smile, "If I were added, wouldn't it disturb the empress dowager's peace even more."

"The left and right are not quiet anymore, and you are not bad." This sentence is not simple, but I don't know how to say it. "Probably only your place is quiet now."

Seeing the queen mother making a gesture to get up, I hurriedly stepped forward to help her, "I heard Meier say that you don't want to leave the palace, do you really want to?"

Surprised, how could Mei Zhuang say such things to the Queen Mother, she only listened to me when she was in my palace just now, it couldn't be Mei Zhuang who said it.

Surprised, the queen mother deliberately used the name of Meizhuang to raise the topic, why did she do this?Is it to alienate?

Doubt, not like alienation, the Queen Mother would not do something with such a big flaw, it is more like doing it on purpose.

My heart trembled, the Queen Mother wanted to tell me that she didn't want me to get close to Mei Zhuang, Zhen Huan and me, to be precise, she didn't want me to go to the palace like Mei Zhuang Zhen Huan.

A simple sentence is a reminder of trust and a temptation of suspicion, "I don't want to."

"Oh, don't want to?!" Could it be that the tone of voice mentioned and the deep meaning in the Queen Mother's words made me tremble, and I knelt down respectfully to salute, "It's my concubine who is not filial, and I don't think about the Queen Mother at all. I just want to take advantage of everyone in the palace. Going to the palace to escape the summer heat can steal half a day's leisure. It's the selfishness of the courtiers."

"You're not selfish at all, it's just that what you want is different from ordinary people." Seeing that the speaker's expression was not fake, the queen mother said, "Okay, don't be so polite."

"Thank you, Empress Dowager." Thank you for not taking me to the palace, and for not delving into the reason behind it.

······

"Queen Mother, do you really not want to bring Mrs. An with you?"

"No, since she doesn't want to, why should the Ai family make it difficult for her," it's best if she doesn't have that kind of heart, and it's inevitable that she will serve the bed. If Ai's family pushes her into this competition, Rong'er will inevitably feel dissatisfied.It's better to let someone else... "Furthermore, the palace needs to keep some smart people. You can go back to the queen later."

"Yes."

There are fewer people in the palace, and there are many chores. Now is a good opportunity to practice. When she comes to the palace by herself, it will be a great help.

······

The next day, a group of people went to the palace in a mighty way, leaving behind people in the palace with different thoughts.Simple people walked into the happy palace with many people in charge, while those with complicated thoughts were worried about their own going, and those who didn't even want to leave the house.I enjoyed the rare peace in the palace, but there was one person who couldn't sit still.

Only a day later, they came to the door.

The little girl looks young, her big eyes are indescribably agile, and her unopened facial features are very cute on her face with a little baby fat.I have been in contact with her several times, but because of many things, I don't have the deep friendship with her like Zhen Huan.

"I wonder who it is, so it's our Chunchang?" Although this girl gets along well with me, we haven't seen each other for a long time, so it's rare that she will come to find me.

"Sister An, I'm here to play with you, are you welcome?" Chun'er was very playful, jumping up and down in front of me, without any dignified look.

"Welcome, why don't you welcome me." Standing up, I greeted the girl, and called Ju Qing to get some food, "Get any other food, don't miss that."

Chun'er looked at Ju Qing and I playing charades, curiously asked, "Sister An, what is "that"?"

"What is what, I don't know." I couldn't help but want to tease the girl, so I started to pretend to be confused.

"Sister, did you say that? You clearly know what Chun'er is talking about."

"But I really don't know."

"Sister," the little girl began to act coquettishly dissatisfied, "If you don't tell me, Chun'er will have to go to the small kitchen by herself."

"Okay, Ju Qing will bring it later, you will know," Chun'er was dissatisfied with my answer, but in the end she was somewhat relieved, "Sister didn't put ice in the room, do you think it's stuffy?"

"It's okay." Chun'er wiped the sweat from her forehead with a handkerchief, and said, "It's a little hot, but it's better than being stuffy alone."

"You, you can't hold back your temper. Your aunt won't talk about you when it's such a hot day."

"How can I not say it, but I can't bear my acting like a baby, and I heard that I came to my sister, so I let me come."

"I don't think it's acting like a baby, it should be acting like a spoiled child."

"Sister~~~~~~" Chun'er was a little bit reluctant, but fortunately Ju Qing came back just in time, the girl was so greedy that she was distracted by the food, she looked at the crushed ice that Ju Qing brought up with white smoke, and in the meantime There is also fruit pulp, with different colors, looming, "Sister, what is this delicious?"

Ju Qing put one of the bowls in front of Chun'er, and the other bowl in front of me. The girl looked at the novelty of the food, although she wanted to eat it very much, but she still suppressed her verbal desire and was curious about my answer.

"It's just a snack made with ice cubes and pulp honey. It's not exquisite, but it's still good in summer. You should try it quickly."

Such a cold, sour, sweet taste, Chun'er Xu likes it very much, while eating without rest, while breathing because of the cold and sour feeling, did she take the time to express her joy inarticulately, but for a moment , then wiped out her bowl.Seemingly unfinished, she started to stare at my untouched and somewhat melted portion, making no secret of her desire to eat it.

"You can eat it." The two bowls on the left and right are not too much, so it shouldn't be a problem, "It's just that this bowl will be gone after eating today."

"Well," although Chun'er is greedy, she also knows that eating too much of this kind of cold food will hurt her health. Besides, she will come again tomorrow, "Sister Wan is right. If I'm bored, come to Sister Lai'an." Just go to the place. Sure enough, the food here is not worse than that of Sister Wan."

She eats cheerfully, and speaks simple words but the content is not ordinary at all. Zhen Huan asked her to come to me, is it a casual suggestion or the result of careful consideration?Zhen Huan, does she want me and Chunchang to be on good terms?Do you want to plan as much as possible for this innocent girl?However, no matter what, Zhen Huan has always liked this girl very deeply, "Your sister Wan really loves you very much. If she can't take you to escape the summer heat, she will definitely think about things in the palace for you. I really envy you." .”

Chun'er listened to my words, and couldn't help but smile coquettishly, she was indescribably cute, such a person deserves to be treated sincerely.

Every day after that, Chun'er came to report, and with such a lively person to accompany her, life in the palace was very pleasant.It's just that the person I've been waiting for for a long time doesn't come, and the things I want to deal with can't be done well, so I feel a little bit worried.Could it be that I really want to take the initiative to contact through that little Lizi?In this way, in the end it has lost the right of priority, or wait for it.
