Chapter 1 Rupture
The time of Qianqing Palace, like everything in the Forbidden City, is turning according to Kangxi's preferences.

He liked the convenience of western watches even more, so he asked all the eunuchs who served him to learn to read them.For example, at this moment when the lights are on, it's time to turn over the sign. The chief manager, Liang Jiugong, saw that the gold-plated pointer was about to reach the place, so he found a place to change the hot water and missed it, and left the hall to meet the brothers in the respect room.This is an errand that I have been familiar with every day, but today it is a bit embarrassing.

"Grandpa, Yikun Palace, asked someone to bring this."

Although the young eunuch, Fugui, was rewarded with a gold bar, he didn't dare to circumvent the general manager to make his own claim and commit the crime of beheading.

Liang Jiugong heard that it was the joint of Concubine Yi's palace, so he didn't dare to be negligent, he took it with both hands, and by the warm light of the palace lantern, he saw clearly that it was a rosin-colored brocade purse, embroidered with a Bingdi orchid on it, the needlework was delicate and lifelike.

Although he had expected a little bit earlier, it is sad that things have really come to this point.

Yes, a concubine may not care about the grace of the Holy Majesty, but a mother cannot ignore the life and death of her daughter.

"What does Master Yi say?"

"I have thought about all the ways I should think, do my best, and know the destiny."

Liang Jiugong nodded slightly after listening.Although Concubine Yi is known to be jealous of the harem, but she is the only flesh and blood of her sister Guo Guiren, and she is precariously entangled in smallpox. Whether the mother and daughter can see each other for the last time depends on the emperor's compassion.Even if the nobleman might regain favor because of this, Concubine Yi probably couldn't care less about it at the moment.

Thinking of this, Manager Liang hesitated a bit.Sister Guo Luoluo was very popular back then, and the emperor almost lived in Yikun Palace, but within two years or so, her sister lost her sacred heart, and all the green cards were thrown out of the window, which shows that the master was really excited at that time.

Others said that if Guo Guiren hadn't had a favorite concubine sister, she might not be able to keep the head of the project.But Liang Jiugong knew in his heart that the emperor would not be willing.

Guo Luoluo Jilan, whoever is willing to use a little bit of seductive means and play half a heart to invite favors, is not her sister Tao Ruo who is in the concubine position today.

Selfishly, Liang Jiugong prefers a master like Concubine Yi to his sister.She is bright, simple-minded, and doesn't use her brain much. Although she is sometimes a little impatient with the people below, her emotions are written on her face, and she is very easy to figure out. She is the easiest type of concubine to serve.

But Mr. Guo Gui, Liang Jiugong admitted that he had read a lot of people, but he still couldn't see through it.

Help, accumulate blessings and virtues, even if Si Gege doesn't make it through, Yikun Palace will naturally miss him.But the emperor has been awkward for three or four years. If Guo Guiren still had the same submissive and wronged look when he met the saint, and ruined the current happiness, he would have to suffer along with it.

But if you don't help...no one can tell what the emperor is thinking.What he offended tonight might be the Sixth Palace who is the favorite on the dragon bed tomorrow.

In the end, seeing is believing.

"Where is the nobleman?"

"Grandpa, spare your life. The nobleman said that Grandpa must see her, so he is waiting in the servant's room where we are on duty at night."

"Confused, is that a place where the master can stay?"

It was just out of the first month, and the weather was still cold, not to mention that at night, the roads were thawed and muddy.Liang Jiugong was familiar with walking on weekdays, so he hurried on his feet and arrived in a short time.

There are only a few charcoal candles in the eunuch's room, and the room is dark and unclear.But Liang Jiugong felt that even the light of fire and candles could not compare to Guo Guiren's self-sufficient appearance, pure white and flawless, demure like blue grass.

"Greetings to the noble master."

"Liang Tianda, please get up quickly. We are old friends and don't need these formalities."

Guo Luoluo Jilan is about 30 years old this year, and the Forbidden City has a steady flow of newcomers. She is not young at all, not to mention staying up for several days worrying about the life and death of her only daughter.Liang Jiugong watched from the corner of his eye, not daring to show it on his face, but his heart was pounding.

This inevitably violates the duty of a concubine in the harem.

"Since the master knows that he wants to face the saint, why don't you decorate it decently?"

The corner of Ji Lan's mouth moved slightly, as if he wanted to laugh, but it was uglier than crying.

"Doesn't Da think that Ji Lan is here tonight to beg the emperor for rain and dew, so that Si Gege will be safe and sound?"

Liang Jiugong was overwhelmed by the words, but he didn't know how to respond.

"I just want to bet that the emperor is more annoyed by my self-willed and reckless behavior, or that he loves his daughter and hangs his life by a thread, and that he is more kind-hearted."

"Your Majesty is right. The Emperor is not hard-hearted. But according to the rules of the ancestors, after four hours tonight, you must move out of the palace to avoid acne. Master Yi has come to beg for it over and over again, and the Emperor is always perfunctory. If you didn't let go in the past, it can be seen that you have to follow the rules. Now, if you want the emperor to make a decree to show mercy, you have to have a step up? Not today, not tomorrow, there must be such a thing. The slave said something wrong, you were originally on the sky. , the glory and status are right in front of your eyes, why bother to be so stubborn and disobey the holy will? If you were still favored five years ago, Si Gege must be the star of the elder brother at this moment. Four Gege Antai."

Ji Lan has been thinking about it for the past few days, sleepless and restless, but regretting the reason, his eyes turned red for a while.

"It's always me, Ernie, who is selfish and suffers from the child..."

Seeing that she was finally willing to listen, Liang Jiugong heaved a sigh of relief, and took out the purse from his sleeve.It used to contain a small green card with a dull paint color, as if it had not been used for a long time.There is a large crack in the middle, in which the original color of the wood is faintly visible.

"It's the slave's job to inform the masters of the sign, so naturally I can't shirk it. But the slave is also helping the nobleman at the risk of Longyan's anger. I think you are smart and know the importance. If the nobleman still thinks highly of this slave Head, why don't you just collect the purse and go back to Yikun Palace to wait for the news."

Ji Lan silently wiped the circles of his eyes, and gently pushed back the purse that he handed over.

"Everything is arranged according to the understanding."

Manager Liang was determined, and hurriedly called his subordinates to take care of everything, and then called the noble lady's maid to come in to take care of the grooming.

She already looks good, so she doesn't need to be heavily decorated. She combed her black and thick hair again, and applied a thin layer of powder to cover up the fatigue of the day. pity.

Jilan has been to the Qianqing Palace a lot in the past, and he is familiar with the way, and seeing that many of the decorations are from the past, his heart that was beating wildly calmed down a lot.

The emperor's temper has not changed.There was still a turning point in that matter.

No matter how long the corridor is, there will be time to finish it.

The door to the warm pavilion is close at hand.Liang Jiugong made a secret signal, but there was no response.Ji Lan knew that this was a way of expressing 'no problem' among the slaves.

"Report to Your Majesty, nobleman Guo Luoluo, please see me."

"Come in."
