Chapter 8 Vase Storm

After a cup of tea, Ji Shuidong returned to the west wing with a few white magnolias.

"Sister, sister, look how beautiful and fragrant these flowers are."

"The aroma is quite seductive, but the peach blossom sister in this yard is not good-looking. Why do you look at the magnolia outside the upper hall?" Yao Yulu couldn't help but feel relieved when she saw Ji Shuidong coming back and asked jokingly.

"My mother likes this white magnolia the most. She planted a few around my sister's house. When she entered the palace and smelled the magnolia, she thought of my mother." Ji Shuidong held the white magnolia in his hand, but suddenly dimmed his face.

Hearing this, Yao Yulu also remembered her mother who was still in Yao's house. She empathizes with Ji Shuidong's slight words and couldn't help but feel sad. She said, "Get this magnolia flower and put it in a vase, as if her mother's fragrance is permeated in this room."

"What my sister said is that Shuidong also thinks so."

At this time, Lv Panxiao knocked gently on the door and called them to come out earlier. Yao Yulu and Ji Shuidong couldn't find a vase with beautiful magnolia, so they hurried out.

Several beautiful girls came to the yard again. Lv Panxiao worked hard this morning and looked a little tired. She cheered herself up and said: After this afternoon, several beautiful women must have known about the things in the palace, and now I will say something specific. First of all, there are several things that must not be committed in this palace. First of all, you must not steal, and you must not steal things, let alone steal people; you can't wear embroidered dragon and phoenix clothes; you can't destroy the things in this palace, break a bottle, and break a painting. If you investigate it, it may be a death penalty..."

Listening to Lv Fanxiao's words, Yao Yulu couldn't help thinking that in this harem, human life is worthless compared with these rules, but even so, there are still so many women who want to enter this deep palace, look at the emperor, look at the imperial garden, and see if their creation is against. Have a sad fate.

"You may have heard about what I said, but it's not good to be distracted."

Lv Panxiao saw at a glance that Yao Yulu's mind had already flown far away. A little reminder to her, Yao Yu's face turned slightly and quickly recovered.

"You must not know the concubines in this harem. Let me briefly introduce you first. Under the queen, there are noble concubines, concubines, nobles, always present, promise and so on. The queen is in poor health and has lived in the Jinxiu Hall for a long time. She can't see her often. The Jade Concubine lives in the Xinluan Hall. Concubine Jin lives very close to the Taoyuan Hall. There are other Concubine Ling and so on. She won't make more introductions. She needs to pay careful attention to the future and don't neglect other concubines. Lv Pangxiao's words were very careful. If it was not heavy, no one would lighten anyone. This bowl of water was very flat.

After that, the day's training ended with the dark. The aunts went back to their rooms to rest. Some of the girls went to each other's houses, and some of them did some needlework by themselves. The Taoyuan Hall under the moonlight was accompanied by the breath of the girls.

Just as the whole Taoyuan Hall was in a calm atmosphere, there was a noisy sound outside the courtyard wall. It seemed that Concubine Jin in the next courtyard was scolding something. The loudness of the voice showed the degree of her anger.

Yao Yulu also heard the sound of the courtyard at this time, but she and Ji Shuidong were busy fiddling with magnolia flowers in the room, regardless of what the inexplicable noise was about. She found a water-green vase and took it out and put it on the table and said, "Sister Shuidong, you can this vase and Can this magnolia match?

Ji Shuidong was very satisfied with the water-green glazed gold vase in front of him and said excitedly, "This beautiful vase must have been brought by my sister from the house. Accompanying this wild magnolia flower may be a little condescending.

"Don't say this, sister. This is what my mother brought me, and it is also to make me more angry by planting some plants in this room. Now it's in the right place, just like my mother's heart." Yao Yulu made up a small lie. In fact, this vase was just exchanged for a gold bracelet from another beautiful girl. She knew that if Ji Shuidong's character knew the origin of the vase, she would refuse it from her mother-in-law.

The two were talking and laughing while enjoying the white magnolia in front of them, and there was a rapid knock outside the door.

Yao Yulu got up and opened the door and saw the maid of honor standing outside the door, who was usually busy in this Taoyuan Hall.

"Yao Xiunu, Ji Xiunu, go to the front hall quickly. It's not a big deal." Huge sweat appeared on the forehead of the maid outside the door, and her face turned red. She hurriedly provoked this sentence and rushed to another room.

Yao Yulu and Ji Shuidong are confused. This day is just a training. What can happen?

"Sister, what can I do in the middle of the night?"

"I'm afraid it's unexpected, but even if something goes wrong, it won't happen to us. Go to the front hall and you will know."

This early spring night was a little cold. Yao Yulu and Ji Shuidong quickly put on their cloaks and walked to the front hall together.

At this time, the front hall was brightly lit, and the beautiful women stood in rows in the middle of the hall. Yao Yulu also pulled Ji Shuidong and inserted it in. A woman who had never met sat on the bench in front of the hall. Three strands of green silk circled behind her head into a flowing cloud bun, wearing a little golden tassel jade phoenix hairpin on her head, dressed in Bixia cloud pattern beads peacock. Although the long skin is like curd fat, the head moth eyebrows, but the fierceness between the eyebrows can't be hidden. The extremely thin eyebrows she drew were slightly raised up, and the thin two red lips messed up and down and said, "Can these beautiful women come together?"

Lv Panxiao stepped forward and was slightly blessed. "I told the Empress Jin that they have all come."

It turned out that the woman sitting in the main seat was the Empress Jin in the next courtyard. It was not noisy enough in her palace, and now she is in this Taoyuan Hall again? Yao Yulu looked at the arrogant woman in front of her and couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied.

"Princess Jin is auspicious." The beautiful women invited a good job like Concubine Jin.

Concubine Jin smiled and said, "This palace is the concubine of the New Yan Hall. You probably know that the New Yan Hall is very close to you. At noon today, a vase in my temple was broken. If it was just an ordinary vase, I wouldn't have to spend so much money, but this vase was the wedding gift given to me by the Empress Dowager in those years. Now this vase is I really don't know how to explain to the Empress Dowager.

The front hall was silent. Yao Yulu looked at the confused appearance of the people around her and thought that the new Yan Hall broke a vase and found the beautiful girls. Isn't this bullying these newcomers?

Concubine Jin picked up a cup of tea, gently brushed the tea with the lid of the cup, and said, "I went to accompany the emperor at noon. At noon, I returned to the hall after eating with the emperor. Only two maids in the middle were in the Xinyan Hall, but someone saw a beautiful woman. The girl in clothes passed through the palace door, but didn't pay much attention. I'll just ask. If someone accidentally breaks the vase today, he will stand up and admit it. If you don't admit it, don't blame me for being cruel!" As Jinfei spoke, she suddenly gritted her teeth fiercely, her eyebrows were high and low, with a fierce face.
