Chapter 18
"Slaves will definitely keep it in their hearts." Ran Yun was startled into a cold sweat by Queen Yan's words, yes, they are no longer the little girls in the Grand Master's Mansion who don't know the dignity and the sky.And Miss is no longer the ignorant girl who shared the bed with her and blushed because she secretly discussed her future husband in the middle of the night. Now she is in charge of the harem and the world of motherhood...

"Ranyun, when the prince comes back, you can go to the prince's side to serve him. Only when you are by the prince's side can I rest assured."

Hearing this, Ran Yun was taken aback for a moment, could it be because the emperor looked at her twice more when he came to Kunyi Palace last time...

Ran Yun understood instantly, walked on her knees, knelt down to Empress Yan, and cried sadly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, woo woo! Miss, Miss, Ranyun knows that he was wrong, and he will not dare to do it again in the future. Please don't do it again." Chase Ranyun away, Ranyun has followed you since childhood..."

"Ranyun, you and this palace are sisters, how could this palace drive you away?" Empress Yan helped her up herself, and said earnestly, "I remember that I told you before, and I will find you in the future." Husband, let Husband accept you as a concubine, so we can serve together..."

"No, no, no!" Ran Yun shook his head again and again, and hurriedly replied, "Miss, young lady, don't worry, this servant will never think so..."

"No!" Empress Yan interrupted her, and said firmly and unresistingly, "I have this intention."

"Ranyun, you understand the strife in the harem. Ren Xinyi has jumped from a third-rank Xiuyuan to a first-rank Concubine Shu. Do you know what she relied on?" Queen Yan lowered her eyes, casually playing with her ten fingers like blood pill.

Ran Yun tremblingly replied, "Concubine Ren Shu is the daughter of Prime Minister Ren, Your Majesty..."

"No!" Empress Yan smiled sweetly, as if a hundred flowers were blooming, unparalleled in beauty.The red lips parted slightly, and she whispered softly, "It's because of the emperor's favor." The women in the harem can only gain a firm foothold if they are favored by the emperor.

"In this harem, the only one who can compete with Concubine He Gui is Concubine Ren Shu. He Zong holds the military power in his hands. The emperor was afraid that he would be self-respecting, so he promoted Ren Xinyi and restrained Concubine He, so that Prime Minister Ren could restrain Concubine He. The purpose." Empress Yan sneered, "On the surface, the emperor's move is to protect the palace and the prince, and even the palace thinks so. After all, a couple who have been married for ten years can't be without affection. But... through This palace can be seen clearly about Yu Qingfeng. Even if the emperor is affectionate, he will put profit first."

"This..." Ran Yun was a little confused. Judging from what the empress said, Concubine Ren Shu's position was not because of Prime Minister Ren, why did she say that she was the emperor's favor?
Seeing her suspicious face, Empress Yan took her hand and said meaningfully, "The emperor's favor will only be given to concubines who can bring him benefits. Ran Yun, you must bring him benefits... "

Wangchuan, Thunder Palace.

Since Li Chenyu left, Cheng Yimo devoted all his thoughts to those beggars.Xiaobawang put an embroidery needle against the neck of the accountant's housekeeper in the palace, and snatched the 500 taels of silver while the steward was crying and trembling, and then threw the 500 taels to Qinglong, that eleven or twelve-year-old kid.

From now on, those children will be her personal guards, so they are all named. Except for the four guards who are named after Qinglong, Baihu, Suzaku, and Xuanwu, the others are named after 28 stars.

The Qinglong of the East Palace, the seven constellations under its seat are: Jiaomu Jiao, Kang Jinlong, Ditu Raccoon, Fangri Rabbit, Xinyue Fox, Tailed Fire Tiger, and Jishui Leopard.

Nangong Suzaku, the seven constellations under its seat are: Jingmu An, Ghost Jinyang, Liutu Deer, Xingri Horse, Zhangyue Deer, Winged Fire Snake, and Zhenshui Worm.

Western White Tiger: The seven constellations under the seat are: Kui Mu Wolf, Lou Jin Dog, Stomach Pheasant, Pleiades Chicken, Bi Yue Crow, Chi Fire Monkey, and Shenshui Ape.

Northern Xuanwu: The seven mansions under the seat are: Dou Muxie, Niu Jinniu, Female Earth Bat, Xuri Rat, Weiyueyan, Shihuo Pig, and Bishuixie.

The two people who followed him were also given names. The finger-broken boy was named Baihu, and he was the head of the white tiger's seven constellations;

In the bamboo garden, Cheng Yimo is still practicing calligraphy in the courtyard, writing like green pines and rocks, walking like flowing water and breeze, with a chic posture, quite like everyone, but the characters are still crooked and horrible.

A young maidservant in green clothes standing beside her suddenly stepped forward, and Yingying said, "Princess, take a rest, have a sip of tea, and practice later." She personally picked up the oil-painted ceramic teacup at the top corner of the desk, and handed it to the It is next to the ink nozzle.

Cheng Yimo raised his eyebrows and glanced at her, seeing that her eyes were clear and bright, eyes filled with anticipation, he only thought of her act as a courteous act for the blogger's favor, and didn't think about it.So he suppressed the weirdness in his heart, lowered his head, and held the two petals of the flower lips on the edge of the teacup, and was about to drink tea, when he suddenly heard a voice in his ear, "Toxic!"

Cheng Yimo subconsciously raised his hand and knocked over the teacup.The light blue tea splashed on the rice paper, and in an instant, puffs of green smoke rose from the fine rice paper, and even the nanmu table case was corroded, which shows that the poison is very overbearing.

It was Li Xiao who made the sound, Li Xiao has been accompanied by poison all year round, and his familiarity with poison is no less than that of the poison doctor. Besides, the poison used by this maid is not colorless and tasteless, and Li Xiao can smell it with just a breath.

Lixiao shouted loudly, and brought in the guards who were patrolling outside the courtyard. The guards pressed down the maidservant and waited for the princess's orders.

Before Cheng Yimo could speak, the servant knelt down, with a pale face, and cried out, "Princess, I was wronged by this servant. It wasn't the poison of the servant. The servant didn't harm you. It really wasn't the poison of the servant..."

Thinking of the princess's cruel methods, the maidservant's heart trembled, her face was covered with tears, and her frail body lay low on the ground, like a flat boat in a storm.She kept kowtowing and begging, "Princess, please be clear, please be clear, be clear..."

Cheng Yimo took the wet towel on Suzaku's floor, wiped his hands, and frowned in thought.Judging from the situation, this maidservant really seems to have been wronged, but...

Throwing the wet wipes on the desk, sat down on a stone bench not far away, and said lightly, "How can I believe that you were wronged?"

The slave seemed to hold on to hope, knelt down beside Cheng Yimo's feet, and said excitedly, "Princess, someone must be trying to harm the slave. If the slave really poisoned the tea, how could the slave bring the tea to the princess herself?" , Isn’t this a self-inflicted trap? Princess, you must be clear about it, and return your servant’s innocence!”

Cheng Yimo narrowed his eyes dangerously, and snorted coldly, "True is false, false is true, true is false, false is true." After the sound fell, he swiftly moved, grabbed the snow-white weed, and his eyes fell on the shavings. On the pale and tender index finger, "Are you fooling me for a fool?!"

The index finger is light white, the pulp is round and full, the nails are white and shiny, but the fine powder in the nail gaps is extremely conspicuous.

Seeing that the matter was exposed, the maidservant turned pale instantly.

Cheng Yimo shook off her hand, "All the maids around me are afraid of me and dare not take the initiative to approach me, but you are so attentive, I wonder why, that's how it is."
