After Lin Mi left, Jiang Baoyu's body, which he had been supporting so hard, finally relaxed.

Fear once occupied her whole heart, and even made her unable to think.

But she still doesn't regret her bold act in front of Shui Lige just now.

What Lin Mi said is not wrong, she is not a fool, she just said that in front of Shui Lige on purpose just now, just to provoke her and see how she would react.

If what the people in Xihua Palace said was true, and Shui Lige was really a pious, double-dealing person who hid his sword in his smile, then she would definitely find trouble with Concubine Zhao secretly.

Jiang Baoyu never thought of being a living Bodhisattva, and he would stand up for someone easily, unless it was the friendship between Xu Qingmeng and Cui Baoyu.

But she had only dealt with Concubine Zhao a few times, and she hadn't been friendly to her and said a few gossips, so she was stupid enough to stand up for Concubine Zhao regardless.

As for what would happen to Concubine Zhao Gui after she did this, this was never something she wanted to care about.

After all, when Concubine Zhao deliberately told her about these things in an attempt to draw her into the situation and become a small fish, it was already unrighteous.

What Jiang Baoyu wanted was always the truth about Jiang Baozhu's disappearance.

At this moment Jiang Baoyu turned his head to look at the bright golden light in the Penglai Palace, recalling the words and deeds of Shui Lige just now.

Before coming here, she thought about countless endings for herself today, but she never expected that Shui Lige would agree so readily.

Could it be that she really has a deep affection for Concubine Zhao and her sisters, that she doesn't care about working with them, and even surrenders her position?

Or was she already planning to suppress Concubine Zhao Gui, but she just kept silent in front of Jiang Baoyu?
Is this necessary?

Jiang Baoyu felt that he was not important enough to make the queen of a country bear it so far.

After all, based on her actions today, even if the empress punished her for a crime of disrespect in public, no one would gossip about it.

People even thought she deserved it.

But the queen endured it.

Not only endured it, she also agreed to her request not to attend the wedding banquet of Princess Mingzhu.

After thinking about it, Jiang Baoyu became a little angry.

Can't help looking at the Penglai Hall again, the Shui Lige bedroom is located at the highest position in the entire Penglai Hall, the lights have just been turned off at this moment, presumably she has already fallen asleep.

This couldn't help but make Jiang Baoyu even more angry.

Why can she be so calm?

Could it be that she was not responsible at all for Jiang Baozhu's disappearance?
Thinking of this, Jiang Baoyu bit his lower lip, turned around, and walked away angrily.

Lin Mi returned to Shui Lige's bedroom, and saw her sitting alone in the dark room, lying on the window sill and looking up at a certain place, the shawl on her shoulders slipped off, revealing her smooth shoulders, glowing with moonlight.

This scene is inexplicably sad.

"Why doesn't your lady ask someone to hold the lamp?"

As Lin Mi said, she wanted to order it for her herself.

"Don't touch it, it's fine like this."

As Shui Lige said, she continued to look at the brightly lit palace in the distance, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I always thought that she should have a good life because she arranged the palace so beautifully."

Lin Mi approached Shui Lige, only to realize that what she had been looking at was the Xihua Palace where Zhao Yunmo lived.

Lin Mi's expression also became a little gloomy.

"People's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants. It's not that the empress never gave her a chance."

"But I don't want to go this far with her after all."

Shui Lige turned her head to look at Lin Mi, but there were tears in her eyes.

Lin Mi froze for a moment.

Faced with such a watery song, she couldn't say any more vicious words, but gently helped her pull Xiapi up, and comforted her: "Although it's already mid-spring, it's still cold at night, your empress should be quiet." Just blow some wind."

Having lived in the palace for more than ten years, Shui Lige is best at managing facial expressions. Even if she is a little sad, she can hide it without looking for it in just one breath.

At this moment, she has turned back to the strong woman with the iron wall in front of Jiang Baoyu just now.

"The girl from the Jiang family has gone back?"

"Well," Lin Mi supported Shui Lige and walked towards the bed together, "But I feel that what she said today is not entirely for Concubine Zhao."

Who knows that Shui Lige didn't ask her to continue talking, but looked at the palace maid who hurried in to hold the lamp and said: "There are some things, you just need to know, there is no need to say it."

Lin Mi knew that Shui Lige should have understood it long ago, so she said "yes", and continued to serve Shui Lige to bed, speechless here.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is the night before the wedding of Princess Mingzhu.

Jiang Baoyu sent the finished dress to Xihua Palace as promised.

Concubine Zhao used peacock feathers to weave a wedding dress for Princess Pearl, and Jiang Baoyu made a gown for Concubine Zhao with crimson satin flower damask.

The moment the clothes were put on her body, even Su Dier was shocked.

"Your Majesty, this is too beautiful. It's the most beautiful, and it's nothing more than a peerless beauty."

There is no full-length mirror in Concubine Zhao's palace, so she can't see her whole body, but just looking at the shawl on her shoulders, she is already very satisfied, so she is also very happy.

But there was a five-foot-long wagging tail dragging on the ground behind her. Although she looked very handsome, it made her feel a little shy.

"It's just that the skirt is so short in the front and long in the back, why is it so long?"

Su Die'er also followed up and said: "Yes, I was amazed when I saw it just now, but I have never seen anyone else wear it, I just don't know what it is called."

Jiang Baoyu then explained to the two of them: "Liang Ji of the Eastern Han Dynasty once made a luxurious ceremonial robe, called the foxtail single garment, with a very long tail, and it was particularly magnificent when walking.

But the protagonist at tomorrow's wedding banquet is Princess Mingzhu. The official knew that the empress would not want to overwhelm the host, so he specially shortened the wagging tail and named it Pianhouyi. "

"Foxtail singlet?"

Su Die'er caressed her chest, and couldn't help but look at Concubine Zhao Gui's back dress a few more times, her expression excited.

"Historical records say that Liang Jinai was a powerful minister of the foreign relatives at that time, and he was very powerful. In order to show his power, he made a single dress with fox tail as a public dress to attend important occasions. Has the empress now shortened her tail?"

"Yes."

Jiang Baoyu replied with a smile, "It is said that Liang Ji's foxtail singlet is eight feet long at the back."

Concubine Zhao Gui and Su Die'er turned pale one after another.

Especially Concubine Zhao, she immediately waved her hands and said: "How can a woman in the palace area be compared with Liang Ji? She is as tall as she is now, and I still feel shy in wearing clothes."

"Miss."

Su Dier hurriedly persuaded: "Tomorrow is the wedding day of Princess Mingzhu. As her mother and concubine, this dress suits your heart so much, why can't you wear it? According to Yichen, you have to wear it to be suitable." .”

She said, afraid that Jiang Baoyu would hear Concubine Zhao being uncomfortable, so she whispered in her ear: "When the emperor sees you wearing this outfit, are you afraid that he won't come to our Xihua Palace?"

Jiang Baoyu: "..."

I'm not far away, can you hear me clearly?
Concubine Zhao still had serious business to do. After pinching Su Die'er, she immediately looked at Jiang Baoyu and asked, "Jiang Zhangyi is such a great gift, I am really ashamed to receive it. I wonder if you have anything you want?" ? I will do my best to help you do it."
