wrong!
Although Yongning Palace is not far from Jingren Palace, it is impossible to go back and forth so quickly.
Sun Shaozong asked tentatively, "Your mother, why did you come here at this time? Don't say wait any longer."
These words are naturally testing whether the little eunuch in front of him knows the existence of the one in front of him.
But the little eunuch said in a wrong way, "Your Excellency doesn't know, the interrogation in the harem will be more stringent, but it's best to do things cheaply at the moment."
Sure enough, not all the way!
This is obviously because someone is jealous of Jia Yuanchun's favor, so they came here under the guise of her name to test the truth, so as to kill two birds with one stone!
But the problem is...
Is the former one true, or the latter one true?
or……
Not really at all!
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that the last answer might be the truth, and Sun Shaozong couldn't help but feel a little cool behind his back—the intrigue in this palace is really hard to guard against!
Chapter 568 Rong
Jingren Palace.
Concubine Rong sat sideways in front of the dressing table, looking at the basin of silver frost charcoal in the corner, her pair of almond-like eyes became unpredictable with the flickering of the charcoal fire.
It was only late autumn at this time, and although the night was getting colder, there was still a long time before the official distribution of charcoal in the palace for warmth.
However, the four concubines waiting to give birth in Jingren Palace got special approval from the emperor, and they could use charcoal in advance.
the reason...
Naturally, it is for unrestricted practice of the secret recipe for seeking a child anytime and anywhere.
"Ma'am, Xiao Shunzi has already gone."
The female officer Hu Yue'e came in from the door, felt the temperature in the room, and asked, "It's almost time, do you think you should push back and wait for Xiao Shunzi to come back, or..."
"No need."
Concubine Rong stood up from the spring stool and stretched her arms flat. Hu Yue'e hurriedly stepped forward to undress her, and placed a high-quality Persian velvet blanket in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror.
The embroidered shoes and socks were removed on the edge of the blanket, and a healthy figure was shown in the floor-to-ceiling mirror. Concubine Rong's examining eyes habitually fell on the upper left of the mercury mirror.
What was reflected in that part was supposed to be a flawless mass, but right now there is a bubble the size of a peanut, stubbornly entrenched on it, greatly compromising the beautiful scenery.
There is no way, the manufacturing process is not mature enough these days, and mercury mirrors as large as inches are now limited edition boutiques on the market. It is even more difficult.
Glass that can be used as a floor-to-ceiling mirror may not be able to have a few in 1000 yuan. It seems that there is only one "bad pixel" on it, which can already be called the best.
And this small flaw is not impossible to avoid.
Not to mention, as long as the mirror is reversed up and down, so that the air bubbles are on the knees, it will not look so obtrusive.
Hu Yue'e and other maids of honor also suggested the same way.
But Concubine Rong insisted on refusing, not only put the blemish on it, but insisted on letting it be reflected in the center of her chest every time.
When we first moved into Jingren Palace, the emperor bestowed four mirrors, the first one to rush over was Concubine Rong, and she fell in love with her right away, the only one of which was a 'perfect screen' without flaws.
However, that mirror ended up in the hands of the virtuous concubine Jia Yuanchun.
If it's the emperor's will, that's fine.
If Jia Yuanchun tried his best to fight for it, it would be fine.
However, neither of the two said a single word, but Concubine Rong tried her best, even begging softly to the eggless thing...
From that day on, there was an extra thorn in her heart.
And the air bubble on the mirror, in her view, is the reflection of that thorn, if it can't be pulled out by the root, and then penetrated deeply into someone else's chest, what's the point of trying to cover it up?
After staring at the bubbles for a while, Concubine Rong took a deep breath, and then began to practice the various movements in the secret recipe for begging a child on the blanket.
She was so engrossed, striving to be perfect in every movement, so that in just a quarter of an hour, her body was covered with a layer of wet polish.
however……
"Hmm~!"
With a muffled groan, Concubine Rong, who was independent with her ankles on the golden rooster, fell down on the carpet one after another.
"Damn!"
She angrily punched the blanket twice, stood up and continued to challenge unyieldingly, although she did not repeat the same mistakes this time, but her delicate body was like a willow floating in the wind.
In fact, when it comes to the flexibility of the body, Concubine Rong may not lose to Jia Yuanchun, and even because of her age advantage, she still wins in some aspects.
But helplessly, the innate advantages that she usually relies on to rule the roost have become insurmountable shortcomings in this respect, especially certain postures that require balance, which have repeatedly frustrated her.
In a fit of anger, he rehearsed for a while, seeing that if this goes on, there may not be any gain, and maybe it will hurt himself instead.
Concubine Rong stopped unwillingly, and sat down on the spring bench in a fit of anger, took the handkerchief and lifted off the close-fitting small clothes, wiped the sweat vigorously, and said angrily, "If the dragon species is delayed, I want you to return it." What's the use?!"
In fact, she had tried it before, letting the maid be in charge of lifting, but that was not the right way after all.
Now the secret recipe for seeking a child has been crowned with metaphysics, so she is also worried that if someone assists, it will affect the effect. Wouldn't it be a waste of work then?
But she said that Concubine Rong was venting indiscriminately, when she heard the beaded curtain at the door squeak, then Hu Yue'e came in again, reporting, "My lady, Xiao Shunzi is back."
"came back?"
Concubine Rong suddenly got up from the spring stool, held down the little clothes that were tumbling down the mountain, and said anxiously, "Why have I been here for so long, have I gained anything?!"
"The slave has not had time to ask."
Hu Yue'e hesitated for a while, and added, "But looking at him, it seems that something unexpected happened."
An accident happened?
Did things come to light? !
But how could this be? !
Xiao Shunzi is usually the most exciting, and he has never met anyone before, so how could he see through his identity by that person? !
Concubine Rong's heart trembled, Xiaoyi, which had just calmed down, heaved like a bellows.
She didn't bother to put on her clothes neatly again, she just wrapped a pleated skirt in a hurry, pulled the embroidered shoes and went outside.
"Miss!"
There was only a young eunuch with delicate features outside, seeing Concubine Rong coming out from inside, he said with a bitter face, "Then Mrs. Sun is indeed not an idle person, and with just a few words, she exposed her identity as a servant!"
I'm really afraid of something!
Concubine Rong became more and more anxious, not to mention the small clothes inside, even the pleated skirt could hardly hold back her violent heartbeat.
The ruddy mouth trembled a few times before he could say, "He...has he seen you before?"
"It never did."
Xiao Shunzi sneaked a glimpse of her face turning pale, and knew that she had misunderstood something, and hurriedly said, "Although Mrs. Sun has seen through that the servant is not from Concubine Xiande, she doesn't know that the maid was sent by the empress."
As he spoke, he recounted the brief responses of the two of them.
Concubine Rong heard that he hadn't revealed his identity and made a detour on the way back, so she breathed a sigh of relief, but then frowned and muttered, "In just these two sentences, he actually saw a flaw? This is too... Could it be that you showed your face in a panic?!"
"Never mind!"
Xiao Shunzi hurriedly distinguished, "The maidservant specially huddled in the shadow of the steps to talk to Mr. Sun, so how can the black hole be able to tell what kind of expression it is?"
"Others can't see it, but he may not see it."
At this time, Hu Yue'e who was on the side couldn't help but interjected, "I heard that this Mr. Sun has a pair of eyes in his life, let alone a human being, even ghosts can't hide from him!"
Naturally, Concubine Rong had heard such rumors, and thought they were nonsense before, but now she couldn't help but mutter.
He found out that Xiao Shunzi was a fake, so he paid it off.
In the secret recipe for begging for a child, there might be some kind of gods and ghosts hidden in it, right?
After thinking about it, she couldn't help but ordered, "Xiao Shunzi, you can find a way to send a message to my natal family tomorrow, asking them to invite an expert to open the altar and help us drive away evil spirits!"
Xiao Shunzi took the order and went.
Concubine Rong became more and more agitated when she went back to the room. She took off the pleated skirt and it still didn't ease, so she just gritted her teeth and stripped her naked body. "Just wait, one day I will climb on top of you!"
Chapter 569
Accompanying Qin Ming and others, wasted the night in Mingde Hall.
The next morning, Sun Shaozong finally escaped from the palace, but he was a bit anticlimactic.
It stands to reason that Sun Shaozong found out the tricks of the "Baotai Yijin Wan" this time, which is almost equivalent to making a contribution to saving him, and the emperor should express it.
Before, it was just because King Zhongshun got in a horizontal bar.
But now let him go out of the palace, why is it so silent, not even a vain praise, just send him away?
Judging from Emperor Guangde's consistent words and deeds, he is not a master who does not know rewards and punishments?
There must be something strange about it!
Could it be Prince Yizhong, what else could change?
Suspicion filled his heart, but Sun Shaozong didn't dare to deliberately inquire about anything, otherwise he would not be able to escape from the palace if he really knew some secrets - he didn't want to stay in this intriguing place for a long time.
Speechless all the way.
Returning home in a daze, meeting his wife and children was a pleasure.
During this period, Ruan Rong learned that Sun Shaozong hadn't slept well in the palace for two consecutive days, so she planned to drive everyone away so that he could rest well.
However, Second Sister You, who was at the side, evaded the crowd and secretly played tricks, as if there was something important and wanted to tell Sun Shaozong alone.
Eighty percent of it is from You Shi...
"I can't rest easy with you."
Sun Shaozong stretched his waist, yawned and said, "I'd better go to the study to get a good sleep."
Who knows that Ruan Rong has sharp eyes, and she has seen them flirting in private, so she half-truthfully blamed and said, "If there is anything shameful, I should explain it to the master in this yard first, and don't go to the study to mess around, save the trouble." Let the second master feel empty again."
Then, I couldn't help but say a sour sentence, "I'm going to follow to the south now, isn't the road enough for you to have a good time?"
Second Sister You was quite embarrassed, she was about to explain a few words carefully, but she was dragged outside by Sun Shaozong long ago, and she found a place where she would carry her back to ask the details.
"Grandpa is back."
Hearing Sun Shaozong's question about the serious matter, Second Sister You hurriedly put aside her grievances just now, and said in a low voice, "My elder sister has already agreed, and now she has figured out some ways to come up with it, and she is in a hurry to make a decision before the Double Ninth Festival. Into the palace..."
Sure enough, it was for this matter.
Ever since that night of romance, Youshi has been obsessed with Sun Shaozong—mainly his body—or else he wouldn't have let the news out in front of his younger sisters, thus attracting Third Sister You's schemes.
Therefore, she was very willing in her heart, and after pretending to hesitate for two or three days, she had already endured to the extreme.
When I came back two days ago, I simply agreed to this matter with half-push and half-heartedness, and discussed with the stepmother and two younger sisters neatly for half a day, researching how to steal a man without a trace.
In the end, after much deliberation, there are nothing more than two ways. One is to go to the countryside to wait for an opportunity to fight in the field before and after the Chongyang Ninth Ninth Festival;
After discussing some solutions, Second Sister You planned to ask Sun Shaozong to make up her mind, and asked for credit by the way.
Unexpectedly, he was called to the palace, and there was no news for two days.
Seeing that the Double Ninth Festival was approaching, Second Sister You was naturally anxious.
After listening to Second Sister You's narration, Sun Shaozong hesitated for a while, and then decisively chose the former—these two plans have advantages and disadvantages, but the latter undoubtedly needs the cooperation of Liu Xianglian.
Although with Liu Xianglian's lively and romantic temperament, there is a high probability that she will agree, but in the end, the fewer people who know about such things, the better.
"correct."
After choosing the preliminary plan, Sun Shaozong took advantage of the situation and said, "Remember to tell your sister that if you don't want Liu Xiandi to think about her future conduct from Sister-in-law Zhen, you'd better keep this matter secret from him."
Second Sister You obediently agreed, and Sun Shaozong dismissed her back to the main room casually, saying a few words of caution in front of Ruan Rong, and went to the study by himself.
After arriving at the study, Sun Shaozong locked the door behind him, lay on the bed thinking about it, deduced and perfected the steps of going to the wild to steal people, and made sure that there were probably no mistakes, so he fell asleep drowsily.
This sleep is most of the day.
