Willing to be hired by Jiangshan

New year's eve

Since Yan Xi stayed overnight in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, almost all the previous rules in the palace were broken.Lin Rongchen ran to the harem when he had nothing to do, and sometimes stayed in Hehuan Palace for half a day.The beautiful name is to teach concubine Xi to read poetry.

On New Year's Eve, for the first time, Lin Rongchen summoned all the concubines in the Jinming Palace to sit around the fire and watch the night.

Yan Xi left early, except for Lan Meiren, Gui Meiren and Jia Concubine, no one else arrived.He took the seat on the left closest to the dragon chair.This position used to belong to Hu Qingqing, but after Hu Qingqing was sidelined, Huang Wan took over.

Today was taken by Yan Xi.

The Lan beauty couldn't stand it anymore, "Is the concubine Xi seated in the wrong seat?" As a concubine, there is also a first-come-first-served one, right?No matter what, Huang Wan was concubine earlier than Yan Xi.

Liuli said: "How is it wrong?"

Concubine Jia grabbed Lan Meiren and said with a smile: "Sister Lan is just joking, the empress can sit wherever she likes."

Liuli snorted.

Although the Lanmei was angry, she also knew that Yan Xi was in favor of Sheng Chong and it was not appropriate to argue with him, so she snorted coldly, tilted Liu Li, and uttered four words: "Dogs rely on people!"

These few words are neither light nor heavy, but Yan Xi just listened to them seriously. "What did Lanmei just say? Can you say it again?"

Lan Mei's heart skipped a beat, she thought she couldn't lose her momentum, she stood up and said, "Could it be that the concubine can't even teach a servant girl a lesson now?"

Yan Xi lowered his head and caressed the gold silk hibiscus on his cuff, and said lightly: "That's not true. I just think what you said sounds good, and I want to listen to it a few more times."

Lan Mei rolled her eyes, is this person mentally ill?

"Go on!" Yan Xi raised her eyes and looked at her casually.

"You asked me to say it, so I'll say it?" Lanmei blushed, and all the concubines came one after another. Yan Xi deliberately humiliated her in front of so many people.

"Don't say?" Yan Xi raised his eyebrows, with a hint of displeasure in his eyes.It was the first time for Lanmei to see such Concubine Xi.It seemed that in an instant, the gentleness and softness of his body disappeared without a trace, and a narrow and sharp edge appeared.

Lan Meiren suddenly felt a little guilty.

Yan Xi winked at Liuli.

"Your Majesty, how dare you not listen to her?" Liu Li walked up to her, slapped her both left and right.

"..."

These two slaps not only stunned Lan Meiren, but also the rest of the people.How come you acted in such an exciting scene?

When Lan Meiren reacted, she covered her face, threw herself at Liuli, and fought with her.

Counting the time, it was time for Lin Rongchen to arrive, Yan Xiting got up gracefully and walked to the two of them.But Lan Meiren accidentally pushed her, Yan Xi originally wanted to fall to the ground, but never wanted to be held back.

"What is this for?" Lin Rongchen hugged him, staring at Lan Meiren and Liuli who were disheveled and disheveled.

When Lan Meiren saw Lin Rongchen, she immediately sobbed, "Your Majesty, Concubine Xi ordered someone to beat up my concubine."

After she finished speaking, she regretted it, because she found that even if she said it, Lin Rongchen would not make decisions for her, and he didn't even look at her.

"What does Concubine Ai say?" Lin Rongchen asked Yan Xi.

Yan Xi blinked at him, his eyes rolled like a small deer a few times, and it seemed that every turn hit Lin Rongchen's heart, "Your Majesty, didn't you see that Lan Meiren pushed her concubine, Liuli protector, that's how she got along with her." conflict..."

The concubines took a deep breath, it was a proper blow.The Lanmei people are afraid that it is over, why do they have to provoke this big Buddha?Is it not good to live?

Sure enough, Lin Rongchen immediately lowered his face, "You actually started fighting with Concubine Xi? Come on, pull Lanmei away! Cut off her status, demote her to a commoner, and drive her out of the palace!"

The concubines took another breath.Even Luo Ying couldn't stand it now, but Huang Wan and Du Ruo were very calm, as if they could accept Lin Rongchen's absurdity.

Yan Xi said: "Your Majesty, today is New Year's Eve, don't spoil the atmosphere of the New Year because of such a trivial matter, just for the sake of my concubine, how about Rao Lan beauty once?"

Lin Rongchen put the peeled tangerine into Yan Xi's mouth, "Since my concubine said to forgive her, I will forgive her. But I still have to punish her a little, how about punishing her for facing the wall for three months?"

"Ok!"

At this time, Di Qiu, who was usually at odds with Concubine Xi, didn't make a sound, and even secretly gave Yan Xi a thumbs up.Huang Wan was very puzzled, what kind of magical power does this concubine Xi have, so that Di Qiu can even fall in love with her.Didn't Diqiu hate concubines the most?

With the lesson from the Lanmei people, everyone realized a lot, and only chatted about the daily life, and did not mention anything related to Yan Xi.By the way, looking at a certain two people, you and me, it's sweet, anyway, they are almost numb.

During the long night, Yan Xi became more and more sleepy, and his head was about to droop to his chest.Lin Rongchen coughed softly, "This year the Queen Mother is not here, so you don't have to sit around the stove until dawn. Why don't you recite an article on the Art of War for me, if you can pass it, go back and rest, if you can't pass it, just feel wronged."

Lin Rongchen had seen several military books at Yan Xi's home, and knowing his identity as His Highness the Ninth Prince, besides, he was not bad at riding and shooting. He must have practiced in his early years, so he guessed that Yan Xi should be familiar with military books since he was a child.

art of war?Isn't this embarrassing?They have always advocated that women who have no talent are virtues.It is already very rare to be proficient in all aspects of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.If you really know how to recite the art of war, why not scare your parents to death?

Lin Rongchen regretted, "Can't you recite it? That's a pity. I have prepared a jackpot today. If anyone can recite it, I will go to whose palace tonight... From this point of view, everyone is here tonight Keep vigil around the fire!"

The concubines: "..." Is it too late to go back now?

Hearing that he could go back to sleep, Yan Xi sat up straight, "Which one does the emperor want to hear?"

Lin Rongchen said with a smile: "Conspire to attack."

"Sun Tzu said, the way to use soldiers is that the whole country is the top, followed by breaking the country; the whole army is the top, followed by breaking the army; the whole brigade is the top, followed by breaking the brigade; First, defeating the army is the next best thing. That’s why a hundred battles are victorious, and it is not a good man who is good, and a soldier who surrenders without fighting is a good man who is good..."

After Yan Xi finished reciting it in one breath, Lin Rongchen nodded, "Are I going to Hehuan Palace tonight?"

Concubine: You have discussed it, right? !

The two were getting up to leave, Du Ruo said: "Your Majesty, Luo Ying can also recite military books, why don't your majesty listen to Luo Ying's memorization?"

When Luo Ying heard Du Ruo mention her name, she waved her hands repeatedly, winked her eyes, and gestured, not wanting to show off.

Lin Rongchen stopped, squinting at Yingluo, "General Luo has galloped on the battlefield for many years, so it's not surprising that Yibi will meet." He said, "Yibi, since Chun Jieyu said you know the art of war, then I ask you, why do you use the eight tactics of war?" ?”

Lin Rongchen attached great importance to General Luo, and he didn't want to harm Luo Ying.

"Don't face the high hills, don't turn your back on the hills, pretend to be north... pretend to be north..." Luo Ying thought for a long time, then shook her head in a daze.

Since she was a child, she had only heard her father tell interesting stories about the military camp, but she had never heard of fighting on the battlefield or how to use soldiers. Even the military books were secretly flipped through behind her father's back.Don't say she doesn't know, even if she knows, she can't say it at this time.Ever since she entered the palace, her father had told her that the emperor was very suspicious, and in the palace, she must not show off, attract attention, or be used as a target.What's more, her father is a general in the court, and now the situation in the court is so ambiguous, she needs to be more cautious in her words and deeds in the palace.

"Father seldom told concubine these things... concubine can't remember clearly either."

Du Ruo wanted to say something, but Huang Wan secretly tugged on her sleeve.Lin Rongchen's face softened when he saw that no one refuted, and he left hand in hand with Yan Xi.

Du Ruo pointed at Luo Ying's forehead, hating that iron cannot be made into steel, "You really don't know how?"

"Hmm!" Luo Ying was on the verge of tears of grievance, "Father never allowed me to see those things. What's more, the emperor doesn't like me, so he doesn't want to go to my bedroom...Why should I..." Anyway, she only entered the palace. I want to live in peace and stability, I don't want to fight for favor, I don't want to intrigue every day.With food and drink, and being able to come and go freely, she was content.

"Okay, don't blame her, she is still a child, what can she know?" Huang Wan persuaded.

Du Ruo said angrily: "How can anyone stay around the stove until midnight? This year, the Empress Dowager is fasting, and there is no one restraining her in the harem, so Concubine Xi is so unscrupulous, she will drag the emperor to have fun even on New Year's Eve!"

Huang Wan fiddled with the jewelry on her wrist twice, and said indifferently: "Do you know the current situation of General Zhao?"

Du Ruo shook his head.

Huang Wan waved to him.

Du Ruo listened.Hearing Huang Wan's words, she looked shocked, then nodded and laughed, "In this way, let's see if the emperor will favor her! It's just that you and I can't take the lead in this matter."

Huang Wan said: "Isn't there just one person today?"

Lan Meiren...she must hate Concubine Xi to the core, right?To blame can only be blamed on Concubine Xi for insisting on offending others.

So, on the fifth night of the first lunar month, Yan Xi and Zhao Xun each received a confidential letter.From different directions, the two arrived at the Taoran Palace of the jade concubine one after the other.

Not long after they entered the room, they became weak and passed out.After waking up, they looked at each other, not knowing where they were for a while.

Zhao Xun looked down, only a pair of obscene trousers were left on his body, and his face turned pale with fright. "Yan... Your Majesty, how are you?"

Yan Xi was also in a cold sweat, looking at herself, it was okay, but the outer shirt was gone, and the inner clothes were still in good condition.He didn't think that Zhao Xun had done anything to him, besides, Zhao Xun was not a broken sleeve, he was afraid that his identity would be guessed through.

Zhao Xun looked confused, "This... how could this be?" He didn't even dare to call Mr. Yan directly because he was afraid that the wall had ears.

Yan Xi spread his hands, indicating that he didn't know, but he basically guessed it.

Zhao Xun searched around the room but couldn't find his own clothes, and found that the door was also locked, his shirt was shivering from the cold, his teeth were chattering, "Ma'am, you...why are you here?"

"It's a long story..." Yan Xi leaned on the door frame, hugging his chest, "If I'm not wrong, maybe soon, someone will come to catch the adulterer, the concubine and the guards have an affair, and then...you Beheaded, I was beheaded too..."

"..."

Catch adultery, adultery, beheading... Zhao Xun just wants to pass out and never wake up again.
