Chapter 9 Flowing Years
The newcomers took turns to serve Ji Shen, and Lv was ranked third. The next day, he was ordered by Ji Shen to be the royal daughter. This is the first newcomers to be promoted to the throne this year. Naturally, it is particularly eye-catching. However, not to mention that Lv did not dare to underestimate the concubines in the palace, and after passing through the Hualuo Hall, Mother Zhang was killed by Ashan's personal hands, not only Zuo Zhao Yi and Mu Biwei didn't take the same thing. Even the Su family, who was said to have sent Mother Zhang to the palace, let Mrs. Wu Yingjun enter the palace to make amends... She was more cautious.
Be cautious that even Jiao, who is already unknown in the palace and only takes care of Princess Changkang, will not neglect her. On this day, when she saw her coming to serve her again, she said, "You don't have to bother so much. Just wait for your majesty more. There has always been nothing to do in this palace."
Lou's family laughed and said, "The Empress is sympathetic to my concubine. This is the blessing of the concubine. However, when the concubine is at home, my mother often mentions her face and says that she should not be spoiled and proud, which makes the Empress's kindness be betrayed. Besides, your majesty is in Tang Shifu today, and my concubine is boring in the Niyiyuan."
She said so, and Jiao couldn't force her to drive her away, so she said, "I'm going to take Liluo to the Yi Hall. You can go with me."
and the Yi Hall are the residence of the Empress Dowager. Lv knew that the Empress Dowager also attaches great importance to her family. Not to mention that she came up to the county, even Jiao did not seem to be liked by the Empress Dowager. When she heard that she was going to go to the Empress Dowager, she secretly complained secretly, but at this moment, she had to turn the topic to Princess Changkang. To hide her resistance: "My concubine heard that Princess Changkang was able to silently publish "Deng Lin Fu" the day before yesterday, and Her Royal Highness has not yet been enlightened - it can be seen that Her Royal Highness is intelligent and teaches well."
"Deng Lin Fu" was written by everyone in the previous dynasty, with hundreds of words, and there are many obscure dictionaries and words in the middle. Princess Changkang is only six years old now, and can completely recite them out silently. According to the princess's standards, it is good - especially the eldest daughter of Princess Xiping - Princess Xiping is said to be self-appointed and class Ye has never been very careful, and I'm afraid that he can't recite "Deng Lin Fu" until now.
Listening to her praise Changkang, Jiao also smiled slightly: "I didn't have anything to do to teach her. I don't want Changkang to work hard."
She just said a word and ordered left and right to prepare to go to the Yi Hall, but Lv's next words of praise were useless...
In the Chenglian Hall, Mu Bi slightly listened to Lin Jia's return and smiled: "This Lv is clever."
Ashan doesn't care much about a royal daughter. What she cares about is another thing: "Is what Tang Shifu said true? The best branches in Jianxianhong that day were sprinkled with powder that could make people unconscious?
"Half true and half false." Mu Bi said slightly, "Now the peonies in Yedu have not been opened yet. They are all removed from the greenhouse. They don't spend the night outside at all. Naturally, they can't drink dew. Moreover, the places where they are placed in the imperial garden are open. When the wind blows, how much powder can there be left? Besides, how much powder can be stained with peony flowers without dew? If you touch too much, aren't you afraid that people will see it?"
Ashan said, "In order to make the flowers look cuter, there are also people who sprinkle water on them like dewdrops."
"It is very easy to find your hands and feet on the petals." Mu Bi said slightly indifferently, "The leaves are the same, but the flower mud and another place are not easy to find, but Tang Shifu picked peonies for cooking. If she has no ulterior motives, it is impossible to see the flower mud, then there is only one place..."
"Flowers?" Ah Shan also thought of it immediately.
Mu Bi nodded slightly: "There is pollen in the stamens. Mix some medicinal powder in it. So many peonies are put together, and the colors are different. Maybe you will think that the pollen of other peonies is blown in by the wind, or the pollen is dyed in the flower room..."
"But what kind of dish should be used for peony stamens?" Ah Shanhu doubted, "And last time in Fengyang Palace, the girl also said that Princess Xintai had always been cautious, but this time she took off Jian Xianhong, which was really suspicious, not to mention that we were also rejected."
Mu Bi said lightly, "But later you asked Su Si again, didn't she say that? It can be seen that she doesn't want to be a good person for nothing... What's more, this time, if she gets up early to pick peonies is well known, then the people who tamper with Jian Xianhong will also cheat her. After all, she relies on her cooking skills to stand in the palace, and there are many people who are not convinced!"
"Would He have done it?" Shan asked suspiciously, "Your Majesty's favorite now is the fourth prince."
"He is not so stupid." Mu Bi shook her head slightly. "Besides, in the past few days, the kite lady was in the palace and went in and out with the xie lang. When the xie lang picked the fairy red, she was not beside her. After picking it, she had to choose the best one with her and send it to Yingluo. He expected that she would not set up such a trap that was likely to mistakenly harm the kite Niang... I was thinking about this The person who did it may be the idea of the Yedu family, but I don't know who it is?
She showed deep thought, "The eldest son is about to open his mind, and the other princes will also go to school one after another. Your Majesty obviously loves the fourth prince the most. Naturally, the family of Yedu is not worried. This will be a man, so as to arouse my hostility to the fourth prince. If I guess correctly, Tang Shifu also borrowed this matter. The meaning of showing goodwill..."
"What is the girl going to do?" Ah Shan asked.
"I..." Mu Bi thought for a moment, but sneered, "I'm really not in the mood to be here now. I just hope that my eldest brother will give me an answer as soon as possible... But if I don't return it, my son is easy to bully!" She looked bored, "Call Cen Ping to come here!"
Cen Ping arrived soon, saluted, and asked attentively, "What's the matter with summoning the maidservant?"
"Two days ago, I took my niece to play in the imperial garden, and I promised to bring her two fairy reds." Mu Bi said lightly, "I didn't expect to be folded by Tang Shifu on that day!"
Cen Ping naturally knew about this matter. His mind immediately moved and couldn't help taking a step forward and asked solemnly, "Mother, but those flowers..."
"You guessed right." Mu Bi slightly nods, "At that time, I asked people to catch up with Tang Shifu and ask for two flowers. Unexpectedly, Tang Shifu said that she had put it into the pot!" Peony is not green vegetables. She picked so many fairy red flowers, and half of them were not left. Naturally, I want people to ask them to make it clear.
Speaking of this, Cen Ping's face changed a little and said in a low voice, "How dare you ask the Empress, what's on those flowers?"
"Tang Shifu said it was very much like the powder of broken soul grass." Mu Bi sneered slightly! He said, "I have checked this powder in the past two days. If you don't accept it, you won't die, but it's easy to palpitate and sweat, making your body weaker and weaker!" He glanced at Cen Ping and said, "Now that spring hunting is coming, you should understand that if the Lang is suddenly not good, I have no reason to keep him in the palace to follow him!"
Cen Ping did not dare to neglect it. He immediately lifted his robe and knelt down and said, "The maidservant is incompetent, but the head of the department also asked someone to exploit the loophole to murder the third prince and implored the Empress to give me a chance to find out this matter!"
"Four days later is the day of spring hunting. Before that, I need to know the context." Mu Bi looked at him slightly, "Gu Changfu's work is also very reliable. After all, he is the person who came out of the imperial court!"
Cen Ping's heart was stunned and said hurriedly, "Please don't worry! I will never humiliate my life!" But he never mentioned Changfu.
Mu Bi snorted slightly: "Go down!"
When Cen Ping left, Ashan said, "How much does the girl think he can find out?"
"I didn't expect him." Mu Bi said slightly, "Zi Kai came that night, and he asked Gao Qi to check it."
Ashan was slightly relieved. Of course, Nie Yuansheng could not care about Ji Yu's safety.
She put her mind on spring hunting, "There have been a lot of newcomers in the palace in the past three years, and this time the Lu family seems to have been determined."
"Add it." Mu Biwei said indifferently, "But what if a royal daughter has the blessing of the Kang family and is awarded the title of concubine? Isn't Kang also leaning on the big Gaofei now?
Speaking of this, she asked, "Dai Gaofei heard that she would not invite herself this spring hunt?"
"That's right." A Shan said, "It is said that because the fourth daughter of the emperor's weak body, the great concubine could not rest assured her. Originally, the empress dowager persuaded her that she could temporarily send the fourth daughter to the Heyi Hall, but the great concubine said that the empress dowager had raised the eldest son and the second son of the emperor and did not dare to ask the empress to work more."
"Isn't she afraid that Dr. Ren will work too hard?" Mu Bi smiled sardonously - the fourth daughter's breast name Yaoguang has not been titled so far. Under the circumstance that the three princesses in the palace have been given the title soon after birth, the fourth daughter of the emperor are now three years old and have not been given the princess title, and she has not even given the name. It is not that Ji Shen doesn't like this daughter, but that the big high concubine named it after the fourth son of the emperor Man Zhou. As an excuse, she said that she was worried about the fourth daughter of the emperor and asked to wait for the fourth daughter of the emperor to grow up and then make her name - in Mu Biwei's opinion, she was scared by the imperial doctor Ren for fear of being jealousy.
Ashan smiled and said, "The big Gaofei and the little Gaofei are also funny. Your Majesty obviously prefers the big Gaofei, but the big Gaofei and the girl have never wanted your majesty to go to the Ruiqing Palace. It is said that the little Gaofei and the Qu family Langjun were in love with each other to the point of death. How can you know that they are single-minded after entering the palace? Fight for favor, but Your Majesty doesn't like her too much..."
"It's not surprising." Mu Bi smiled faintly and said, "The eldest concubine entered the palace just for her brother. Now she has a daughter and is thinking about keeping her daughter. Her identity is different from that of the ordinary palace concubine. She is your majesty's cousin and a girl from the Gao family. Naturally, she is afraid of being involved in the wrestling of the previous dynasty and hurt! Besides, she is now one of the concubines and has a biological daughter as a companion. Her status is stable, and the future of her biological mother and brother are also guaranteed. Of course, she is too lazy to fight for blood again. It's a good life to close the door! Little Gaofei, as long as she was carefree with her lover before, after entering the palace, the lover had no hope, and the mother's backer was useless. She had no children and no daughter, and her position had always been lower than that of the big Gaofei who had a grudge against her. Can she swallow this breath?
"I feel that the little Gaofei may not have a little admiration for your majesty. After all, the little Gaofei caused the exile of both King Gaoyang and the princess in the past, isn't it because she ridiculed the appearance of King Gaoyang?" A Shan said thoughtfully, "Unfortunately, even if you are not afraid of death, not everyone can be Queen Duanming!"
"If she wants to admire it, she will love it." Mu Biwei was not very interested in the little Gaofei and said with a slight sneer, "Anyway, she flattered Queen Duanming of Youying in those years, and she was not left to eat in the Jinse Hall. The skills of the Su cook... She experienced it earlier than these newcomers in the palace!"
However, because Ah Shan mentioned the exile of King Gaoyang, he evoked what Mu Biwei really remembered now. After pondered for a moment, he still ordered, "Let Yun Mengru come to the palace."
Ashan looked tight: "Girl?"
"Zi Kai told me something, northwest... Ni Zhen may have something to do with the Xuelan Pass, but I have to wait for my brother's reply." Mu Bi sighed slightly and said with heavy thoughts, "Let Yun Mengru enter the palace. First, tell her some information, and second, I will also ask her about the years she lived in the northwest. She has noticed these clues." After a pause, she said helplessly, "Actually, I should have told Hanxi, but Hanxi's nature. I'm really worried!"
