Prince Jing's Mansion.

Butler Liu helped Liu Han who had just woken up, and gave him a hidden pouch and put it behind his back so that he could lean on it.

"Have they returned to the residence?" Liu Han took the ginseng soup that the little eunuch Gong You had made again, and glanced at Butler Liu.

This "they" naturally refers to Yun Yiyi and Hong'er.

Recently, his drowsiness has become more and more serious, even the timing of meals is not accurate, sometimes he wakes up at noon, sometimes it is midnight, and Gong You always waits on him so that he can have a hot meal whenever he wakes up.

"Your Highness, Hong'er just sent someone back to send a message, saying that she is staying in the palace for the convenience of being elected tomorrow." Steward Liu stood respectfully by the side of the bed.

Liu Han nodded slightly, he had expected this, but it was not surprising.

"Is there any news from Du Li?" Liu Han put down the half-drinked ginseng soup, and waved his hand to make Gong You withdraw.

"Reporting to Your Highness, Du Li hasn't returned home yet. I wonder what His Highness assigned him?" Butler Liu shook his head. Du Li was not a slow-witted person. It had been a few days and there was no news. This must be very difficult.

Liu Han glanced at him with a half-smile, and tapped the edge of the bed rhythmically with his fingers.

"This king asked him to investigate the Zhao residence."

Zhao Mansion?

Butler Liu tightened his brows and looked at Liu Han: "Is it Concubine Jing's mother clan?"

Liu Han raised his chin lightly as an answer.

"Your Highness, Du Li hasn't returned for a long time, why don't you call some more people to investigate?"

Butler Liu thought about it, and felt that it was not safe for Du Li to be alone.

"No, he is enough."

Liu Han's tone was contemptuous, exuding a sense of leisure.

After just talking like this, Liu Han felt sleepy. Seeing him squinting his eyes, Gong You knew that he would be sleepy again, so he quickly raised his head and said to Steward Liu: "Your Highness is going to rest, if you have anything to say, we can talk about it tomorrow. .”

Butler Liu glared at him, let's talk about it tomorrow?Who knows when he will wake up tomorrow?What if Du Li didn't handle this matter well?
But... in the current situation, he really had no choice but to leave the room.

Royal Palace.

Yun Yiyi and Hong'er were woken up early in the morning by the maid sent by Madam Cao, and before they had eaten a couple of meals, they were told to go to Jingxiu Palace and wait for someone to come and pick them.

Before leaving, Yun Yiyi swallowed the new Yirong Pill. She had a grudge against King Qi, and Concubine Jing was King Qi's biological mother.

Jingxiu Palace is worthy of the name of Jingxiu. The front of the palace is surrounded by flowers. Compared with the solemnity of the Queen’s Palace, Jingxiu Palace is more elegant. The emperor of Chu specially repaired it for Concubine Jing, which shows how grand his favor is.

Yun Yiyi took regular steps, lowered her head and narrowed her eyes, and made a gesture of panic that a timid court lady should have.

Before reaching the main hall, a woman's miserable cry came from the hall: "Concubine Jing, please spare this servant! The servant did not do it on purpose! Your Majesty! Please spare me! I beg your Majesty to spare your life!"

Yun Yiyi frowned, and slowly tightened the hands hidden in the cuffs, after all, she still didn't raise her head to look, her eyes were fixed on the road under her feet.

The maid who led the way led a group of people to the front of the main hall, just in time to see two guards dragging a maid with a disheveled bun out. When the hem of the skirt was dragging, several bright bloodstains were clearly visible.

There seemed to be a dull and dead air flowing in the air, which made people raise their hearts to their throats.

"It's really bad luck! What are you waiting for? Hurry up and clean it up! Let the empress see that there are delicious fruits from you!" Grandma Sun stood by the door of the palace, frowned when she saw the blood stains, and raised her hand to point at the two maids casually.

The faces of the two maids who were named turned pale in an instant, cold sweat broke out on their foreheads, and they trotted to clean the blood in front of the palace gate.

Their movements are fast and uniform, as if they have been practiced countless times.

When I was young, the stone slabs in front of the hall gate were bright and there was no trace of dirt.

Nanny Sun raised her head in satisfaction, and glanced at the maid leading the way: "These are the new maids?"

The maid who led the way smiled flatteringly: "Exactly, the servants are the first to send people to you, and after Concubine Jing chooses them, they will be sent to other halls..."

Logically speaking, it should be chosen by the queen first, but no one in the palace knows that Concubine Jing is the most favored one, and the queen always turns a blind eye to these rules and doesn't pay much attention to these rules. Concubine Bo Jing's favored servant came here on her own initiative.

Grandma Sun has seen a lot of these people over the years, and seeing that she is so knowledgeable, she turned her gaze to the maid at the side.

She squinted her eyes, with a hint of pickiness: "This, no, the waist is too thin, and the empress will not like it when she sees it."

"This doesn't work either, the skin is so good, did you come here to flatter His Majesty?"

"Forget it, you, you, you, just the four of you!" Nanny Sun pointed to four people casually, and Yun Yiyi happened to be among them.

As for Hong'er, she was the one that Grandma Sun complained about her thin waist just now...

"Take the others to another palace." Nanny Sun ordered coldly, "You four come into the palace with me."

Yun Yiyi couldn't help tightening her palms, she glanced at Hong'er from the corner of her eye, but seeing her concerned eyes, she shook her head slightly to indicate that she was fine.

She didn't know how many people the queen stuffed in were selected. It would be a lie to say that she was not afraid, but since she had already been selected, it meant that she was one step closer to her goal.

With her head down, Yun Yiyi walked side by side with the other three court ladies.

Suddenly, someone touched her right arm lightly, Yun Yiyi subconsciously turned her head to look, and the other party smiled back.

Yun Yiyi guessed that it might be someone from the queen's faction, but she was under the nose of people at the moment, so she couldn't expose her rashly, so she just pursed her lips, with a dull expression, as if she was ignorant.

Soon, the group arrived at the inner hall. Different from the beauty of the outer hall, the inner hall was extraordinarily magnificent. Upon entering the hall, Yun Yiyi smelled a sudden enchanting fragrance, but soon, the fragrance flashed And pass.

Yun Yiyi didn't look up and looked around, her eyes only focused on the steps under her feet.

"Is this the new maid?" The gentle woman's voice sounded, as if it was whispering in the ear.

Yun Yiyi bit the tip of her tongue, this concubine Jing was really evil, obviously everyone was a woman, but just hearing this voice, her heart softened in half.

She glanced at the maids on both sides from the corner of her eye, and found that both of them had a faint blush on their faces, and they had softened just like her.

"Go back to your mother, that's right." Nanny Sun said respectfully.

Concubine Jing pursed her lips: "Everyone raise their heads for this palace."

Yun Yiyi slowly raised her head following the movements of the crowd, and finally saw Concubine Jing's appearance, she was worthy of being the favorite concubine of the Shengguan Harem, her appearance was extremely gorgeous, her eyes were flowing like streams, especially when she looked over lazily at the moment, it was simply stunning. Heart and soul, if she didn't know that she had already given birth to a son, she would almost have thought she was a girl.

However, she has a more charming temperament, which is incomparable to young girls.

I don't know if it was because of the powder or other reasons, but Yun Yiyi rarely saw wrinkles on her face.

What is a demon concubine?This... probably nothing more than that.

No wonder Emperor Chu doted on her so much, it really couldn't be a fake beauty at all.

Yun Yiyi only took one look, then looked away.

"Why don't you look at Bengong?" Concubine Jing's eyes fell on Yun Yiyi.

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Yun Yiyi thumped in her heart, and immediately knelt down according to the method taught by Madam Cao with her memory: "Your Majesty is more beautiful than a fairy, and slaves dare not look directly for a long time, for fear of offending, please forgive me .”

Hearing this, Concubine Jing curled her lips in a good mood: "You are clever, what's your name?"

"Since the servant has entered Jingxiu Palace and the past has vanished, everything should be prioritized by the empress, and I ask the empress to give her a name." Yun Yiyi prostrated herself on the ground, kneeling on the cold ground with her forehead, which was an extremely standard kneeling ceremony.

Concubine Jing propped her chin with her slender hands, feeling a little excited.

"What was your original name?"

"Reporting to the empress, the maidservant's name is Dongshuang."

"Dongshuang...is a good name." Concubine Jing repeated it, then smiled suddenly, "I allow you to continue using this name."

"Thank you, ma'am." Yun Yiyi kowtowed again.

Concubine Jing lazily raised her hand: "Get up."

Nanny Sun looked at Yun Yiyi with a little surprise. This was the first time Concubine Jing allowed a palace lady to continue her previous name.

This is called Dongshuang, it is not simple.

"What's your name?" Concubine Jing looked at the others again, and before they could answer, she pointed at them, "Forget it, your name is Dongfeng, and your name is Dongyu."

"As for you?" Concubine Jing looked at the court lady on the right side of Yun Yiyi, "Just call it Dongxue, the wind, frost, rain and snow, just right."

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but narrow her eyes with a smile.

This kind of vicious temper, caused by her, has a little more girlish innocence.

What can the four of them do?I can only kneel down and thank you.

Concubine Jing ignored them, but turned around and looked at herself in the bronze mirror. She stroked her temples and couldn't help sighing softly: "Time flies so fast, and my hair has been promoted in a blink of an eye. If only I could be a few years younger gone."

"What did you say, my lady is still young, why bother to hurt the spring?" Nanny Sun went forward to straighten the broken hair on her forehead.

"Actually... it's not impossible."

Yun Yiyi pursed her lips, and spoke with a trace of hesitation.

Grandma Sun scolded, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Nurse, don't be in a hurry, just listen to what she has to say."

Concubine Jing raised her hand to stop Nanny Sun's words, her eyes fixed on Yun Yiyi.

"If your empress doesn't want to have gorgeous hair, it's actually okay. This servant has a way to turn these gorgeous hair into black hair." Yun Yiyi gave Concubine Jing a timid look.

"Really?" Concubine Jing raised her voice. In fact, it's not that the imperial doctor didn't give her some prescriptions, but those were still too slow to take effect, and her hair was still graying every inch.

"Dongshuang, do you know the consequences of lying to me?" Concubine Jing squatted down, and slowly lifted Yun Yiyi's chin with her fingers covered with Kodan, "If it doesn't work, the maid who was dragged out this morning is yours." end."

Seeing her shivering, Concubine Jing changed her voice: "Of course... If you can do it, I will allow you to serve you personally and promote you to the rank of first-class court lady."

The other party's icy fingertips pressed against his chin, Yun Yiyi resisted the urge to move away, and looked even more submissive.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, this slave will definitely satisfy your Majesty."

Concubine Jing looked into her eyes steadily, as if she was judging the authenticity of what she said.

However, her eyes did not hide or flicker, she had a very ordinary face, but because of those eyes, there was a faintly unique elegance.

"That's good." After a while, she slowly let go of her fingers.

Yun Yiyi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, this was considered a dangerous move for her.

In the situation just now, if she kept silent like this, she would have no way to get close to Concubine Jing, and she would definitely be sent to work in the outer palace later.

This is not what she wants to see.

What she wants is to be able to get close to Concubine Jing, so that it is possible to find the place where the antidote is placed.

So, she decided to take the risk.

Concubine Jing's gray hair is easy to solve, she just needs to dye her hair. Although there were no chemical agents in ancient times, she happened to know a few natural plant hair dyes.

Before time travel, she had sensitive skin, and she needed to use natural plants for hair dyeing, otherwise it would cause allergies. Therefore, she not only learned about this knowledge, but also did it herself.

If it wasn't like this, she really wouldn't do such an unsure thing, and if she was a little careless, her life would be in danger.

Concubine Jing stood up, turned around and walked forward, her long and complicated skirt swayed in the wind, showing a unique beauty.

From the corner of her eyes, Yun Yiyi noticed that the phoenix was embroidered with gold thread on the hem of the skirt. This concubine Jing is really bold.

She sat back on the imperial concubine's couch with an elegant posture.

"Dongshuang, if you need anything, just tell Nanny Sun, Bengong, I'm waiting for your good news."

"Yes, Concubine Jing." Yun Yiyi didn't dare to think too much, and quickly thanked her, acting like a dog.
