Chunman Palace

Chapter 94
Mu Pingting's smile deepened, but her eyes were as cold as frost: "This gift is accepted, so naturally it cannot be denied."

Lin Qingyu replied with a bright smile: "With my sister's words, my sister can rest assured."

Mu Pingting frowned and looked at the person, wondering, "Don't worry?"

Lin Qingyu held her hand and whispered softly: "Yes, my sister Hongfu Qitian is pregnant with a prince. How can anyone be as lucky as my sister? Now that my sister speaks well, my sister will inherit her supreme blessing. How can you be afraid of not being safe in the future, but going well?"

"My sister was joking." Mu Pingting was still smiling, and gently pulled her hand back, "Your Majesty, this concubine feels unwell, so I'll go back to rest first."

Xuan Yin nodded: "Go, your body is important."

The queen echoed: "Yes, let's have a private gathering for your sisters another day."

Mu Pingting smiled and said nothing, she bowed slightly and withdrew.

With such preferential treatment, even fools can see the bias of Xuan Yin's heart. Now that she returns to the palace, it is more like stepping into a game of chess.

But she wants to jump out of the chessboard and control her own destiny, and she doesn't want to be mermaid.

All the beauties in front of the palace looked at each other coldly, and this hypocritical friendship turned into a good show for people to watch, with the usual false feelings and artificiality.

Lin Qingyu turned her eyes away, and saw Concubine Lan on the steps of the palace, smiling coldly, staring at her without squinting, she also walked up to her without hesitation, smiling brightly.

Concubine Lan and Concubine Jin are working together, she knows it, and now Concubine Lan's eyes are like a poisonous snake dormant in a cave, who will spit out a letter and spill the poison at some point, but she has mastered the seven snake-fighting skills in the past two years. Even with her skill of one inch, Lan Fei might not be able to succeed in one fell swoop.

The eyes of the two were fighting each other like water and fire.

Just at this time, a succulent laughter came over, and Fu Chang flew in like a butterfly in a gorgeous color, "I haven't seen my concubine for a long time, and my sister thought that she would never see her again in this lifetime." Sister Concubine is gone! Sigh, when we meet again now, Sister Concubine is as beautiful as before."

The queen introduced: "This is Fu Chang. I haven't seen my sister for two years. She must have forgotten."

Yes, the previous Fu agreed.Before she left the palace, the Loulangong girl who was hysterical and used poppy shells to assassinate others.

I just don't know if the poppy shells she has used for two years are still left?
Lin Qingyu smiled lightly: "Sister Fu is beautiful, and my concubine has never forgotten her."

Fu often covered her lips and smiled delicately, and the green hairpin on her hair shone like a stamen in the sunlight, "It is said that time passes by and does not spare the face, but why does the concubine feel that the face of the concubine's sister is getting more beautiful and tender? Sister But is there any secret recipe for maintenance?"

It was only two years before she left the palace, but it can't be said that the years make people old. Fu Chang is deliberately saying this because she is one or two years younger, which is full of irony.

Lin Qingyu didn't back down either, and replied with a light smile, "Yes, things in this world are easy to change, let alone human beings? But I remember that my sister didn't have the habit of covering her lips and smiling before, but the habit left by her damaged appearance last time ?”

Fu Changzai's face turned livid in an instant, and his eyes flew towards Lin Qingyu fiercely like a sharp knife, his voice held back anger: "Thank you, concubine and sister, for your concern, concubine's face has already recovered."

Lin Qingyu stepped forward to look around the people carefully, then nodded and smiled and said: "That's good, I remember that my sister agreed before, and now she looks good, and she has been promoted to permanent residence in only - only - two - years. It can be seen that the emperor is very happy." I dote on my sister."

Fu often gritted her teeth: "It's not as good as the emperor's love for my sister."

Lin Qingyu smiled charmingly: "Sister Fu is naturally beautiful, the emperor must cherish it very much! Even the powder is the best apricot pollen, look, the scar on this head is lightly covered with powder, and nothing can be seen , it still smells strange from afar! With the skillful cooking of my sister, I’m afraid there will be a day when I won’t be so pampered!”

Fu Changzai said: "Sister concubine, do you still remember that my sister is good at making meals? It's just that before sending my sister away from the palace, why did my sister not accept her kindness at all?"

"How come, my sister's craftsmanship is so good, if you are willing to do it, I will naturally eat it all." Lin Qingyu pondered for a moment, disappointed: "I'm afraid, my sister has already used up that strange spice, right?"

Fu Changzai was taken aback, and asked in a trembling voice, "Sister, do you know that spice?"

Lin Qingyu said with a smile: "It's because I don't know how I miss it. My sister's plate of barbecue is very fragrant. I don't know what spices are used to make it. Do you still have it?"

Fu Changzai said with a guilty conscience: "That kind of spice was brought by my concubine from my hometown, and it is gone now."

Lin Qingyu smiled softly: "Don't be afraid, my sister has a clever mind, even if it is gone, she must be able to plant it with her skillful hands."

Fu often feels embarrassed, Nuonuo said a few words and backed away.

But at this time, seeing Lin Qingyu's current beauty, Chang Xiuru couldn't stand anymore, and immediately said: "Sister, I haven't seen you for a long time, do you still remember me?"

Lin Qingyu was disgusted in her heart, but she never showed a trace of strangeness, she just raised her lips and said flatly: "My younger sister naturally remembers Sister Chang, and Sister Chang's former Hui Que, my younger sister will always remember it in my heart, and I will never forget it."

"My good sister, you are in full bloom now, and my sister is so envious." Chang Xiuru's voice became a little more serious, but she stood still at the same spot, looking down.

Lin Qingyu smiled: "My sister's beauty has not diminished at all, so how can my sister's current beauty be compared?" She stroked the garnet bracelet on her wrist, and her voice came out leisurely: "Speaking of the past, Sister Chang was a newcomer. Among the beautiful girls in the palace, she has the fastest promotion and the highest status, my sister's glory now may not be as good as my sister's one of the top ten in the past."

Smiling at Chang Xiuru, it has been two years and she is still a concubine, but the old people around her have already passed her.

Concubine Lan said slowly: "Concubine Concubine is tired from the journey back to the palace today, why not go back to the palace and have a good rest." She glanced at Xuan Yin and asked for advice.

The queen smiled gently: "Yes, my concubine has had a hard time on the road, so she should go back to the palace and have a good rest. Yanxi Palace has been taken care of. Although it is an old palace, many treasures have been placed after renovation. Now it is decorated It looks like a fairy palace." The queen said back: "Why don't you sisters go together, how about seeing something new?"

Concubine Lan bowed her head and said indifferently: "The concubine suddenly feels a headache that is unbearable, so I won't bother my concubine anymore."

Chang Xiuru also said: "The concubine is not interested in treasures, so she won't go to Yanxi Palace." She glanced at Fu Changzai, and sure enough she agreed.

In this way, apart from a few low-level rookies, only Yu Chang was left.

Yu Changzai's eyes brightened, and he said excitedly: "I haven't seen any rare treasures, I want to go to Yanxi Palace where my concubine's sister is, and it will open my eyes."

Xuan Yin watched for a long time, seemed a little absent-minded, and just now did not listen to what everyone said, and his tone was a little cold: "Concubine Jin is not feeling well, I will go to Xuanji Palace to see her first." go.

Seeing this, the empress stopped talking, "Forget it, Concubine Concubine should go back to the palace to rest first, and sisters will go to Yanxi Palace to have a look at it later."

Lin Qingyu saluted slightly: "The concubine will leave first."

The queen sighed, glanced at Yu Chang who was behind her among the crowd, and said, "I'm going back to change clothes first, you can do your own thing." After that, she also helped Shu Xiang back to Fengyi Palace.

Lin Qingyu helped Mo'er get into the sedan chair, and after a cup of tea, he walked in front of a majestic palace. The three characters "Yanxi Palace" were engraved in gold characters on the main entrance, and the bright engravings looked dazzling in the sunlight.The two sapphire stone roads beside the hall are connected. After entering the door, you can see a clear and clear pond with lotus leaves, which are very eye-catching even though they are not in bloom.

The new lotus is dewy, the green round leaves are full of dew, and the layers are blooming like jade cups.The lotus dew and the breeze, followed to the Yanxi Palace Mangong, exuding the fragrance of leaf dew.

In the main hall, there are engravings and paintings, the walls are painted with fragrance, and the brocade tents and bead curtains are infinitely gorgeous, and the fragrance of peppers can be faintly smelled, like fragrant rain falling, and it is everywhere.

On a long table in the hall, there are a variety of exquisite porcelain displayed, the most striking of which is a glazed vase, in which there is a peony, lifelike, as if it is really in full bloom, the petals are delicate and full, and the stamens are full, lifelike .

In front of the vase are several desks and a rosewood intarsia chair, facing the door is a giant screen, behind the screen hides a luxurious pear wood couch, covered with a thick woolen blanket, Incredibly soft.

Behind the screen is a dressing table made of sandalwood, carved with peony patterns, which is exquisite and gorgeous. There are various fragrant flowers in front of the mirror, which are fragrant. In addition, there are complicated and exquisite jewelry boxes containing all kinds of gold and silver. Jewelry and pearls, one of which is even bigger and round.

Beside the couch is a white jade qin, the body of which is white and crystal clear, inlaid with two huge pearls, both the size of a thumb, in a semicircle shape, while seven smaller luminous beads are inlaid on both sides of the head and tail, shining brightly. .Lin Qingyu looked up at the palace with a smile on his lips.

Her smile was extremely cold, she knew that the mirage-like vanity in front of her would dissipate in an instant, and it would not be long before Xuan Yin would speak to her, right?
Before leaving the palace, she was just a noble person, but now she has become a concubine when she returns to the palace. There are many unsuspecting people in the palace who are greedy and eager, but now Xuan Yin is so indifferent to her, even when she welcomes her back, she has a listless expression, which shows where her heart lies. .

Concubine Jin, she is favored after all.When she was ill, Xuan Yin would do everything in his power to treat her, even if the medicine was cheated, he would not hesitate to snatch it, it was so heavy that one could not breathe.

Sitting upright on the dressing table, looking at her still beautiful face, she slowly removed a few hairpins and sighed softly.

In the past, when I didn't wear makeup, didn't buy jewels and emeralds, I felt free and relaxed, I can't go back, I can't go back again.

Finally, she returned to this cage again. After this, she can no longer dream of leaving. The ridiculous thing is that she can't leave the palace, and she can't go back to the palace.Her whole life will be imprinted in this harem, and she cannot escape.

Worrying and falling into a dream, she leaned over on the bed, the cold and gorgeous jewels falling down, like invisible hands holding her tightly.It didn't know how long it took for her to recover from her drowsiness, and she fell into thoughts while looking at the luxurious and unfamiliar Golden Palace.

Now everything in the palace is false, Xuan Yin wants to take advantage of her voluntary "worship" to be true, but no matter what, the result will only be that Mu Pingting's condition will worsen, and all the faults will run on her.She must try her best to save herself first.

To break this situation, first of all, we must form an alliance, and secondly, we must deal with the priests from Linxian Temple.

A court lady at the door handed over a bowl of emerald green teacup, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, this is the red plum wine that the emperor rewarded. It is said that drinking it can relieve fatigue. Please taste it."

Lin Qingyu lowered her head and sniffed. The plum blossoms were fragrant and the wine was mellow. It was indeed a rare wine, but apart from the two scents, there was a faint fishy smell. She couldn't help frowning: "It's last year's red wine. Plum brew, right? Forget it, I have the energy, after drinking this wine, I will inevitably fall asleep again, so let’s put it aside.”

But the maid did not back down: "But the emperor said that this red plum wine is the most nourishing qi and blood, and the empress should drink a glass every day after she is tired from traveling and traveling."

Lin Qingyu took a deep look at her, knocked down the wine glass with his hand, and spilled the wine on the floor.

She sternly said: "I can't even do this well! I spilled all the wine, wasting the emperor's wishes!"

The maid raised her head in shock: "Your Majesty...! You?!"

Mo immediately stepped forward and said, "Why don't you apologize for doing something wrong?!"

The court lady said righteously: "It's clearly the empress herself... I accidentally knocked it over, how can the empress frame the servants?"

Lin Qingyu laughed secretly in her heart, this court lady thought she was doing things under the emperor's order, so she dared not dispose of her life.

"You said that Bengong spilled the drink by himself?"

"Since your empress doesn't want to drink this red plum wine, you can just say so, and the slaves will return to the emperor." After speaking, the maid got up to leave.

"Stop." Lin Qingyu's words resounded, she lowered her voice, and said word by word: "I didn't say you can go."

The maid was startled, and then said: "What other orders does the concubine concubine have?"

Lin Qingyu caressed the jade bracelet in his hand, and said calmly: "Since you are so presumptuous, there is no need to go back to the emperor to be an eyesore. Mo'er, pass on my order, drag her down and punish her for two hundred."

The maid's face was pale with fright, and she was terrified: "The staff charge... two hundred? Concubine, empress, you are taking the life of your servant!!!!!!!"

Lin Qingyu sneered and said, "Don't think too much about your own life."

Before the maid could react, she was gagged and carried out by two eunuchs. The maid's screams and whimpers spread far, far, almost throughout Yanxi Palace.

Gradually, the maid's voice weakened, only the sound of the stick hitting the skin was heavy and powerful, like the sound of a wooden hammer hitting the flesh.

Finally, the palace servants came back to report that the palace lady had finished her two hundred blows with the staff, and she was out of breath.

This time, everyone in the Palace of Yanxi Palace, except Mo'er, was in danger and started to be afraid of this powerful master.
