The night is as cool as water, and the moon and stars are rare.

Qingli thought that Xiaomei had already fallen asleep at this moment, but before she got closer, she saw the lights in the palace in front of her.

Although the lights are faint, they are extraordinarily bright in the dark night.

With a pause in her footsteps, Qingli smiled and speeded up.

When she arrived in the courtyard, she immediately saw Xiao Meili leaning against the door, leaning forward, not knowing what she was looking at.

"Miss, it's cold at night, you're still in shape, go in quickly." Qingli stepped forward, approached Hu Yan, and said slowly.

Hu Yan was taken aback, looked at the little maid with a calm face, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Where have you been?"

Before Qingli came back, she had already taken off that outfit and changed back into a court lady's attire.As long as she made up any reason, she could get away with it, but she didn't.

The emotion between her brows was very light, and her expression was a bit rigid.Bisheng's eyes are very bright, as if hiding two sets of flames, which can burn everything.

Being looked at by Qingli like this, Hu Yan felt a little uncomfortable, as if her own soul was also burning along with it, her heart was hot, but unexpectedly not uncomfortable.

"Miss, let's talk after we go in." Qingli reminded.

Hu Yan's mind was concentrated, she glanced around vigilantly, pursed her lips and stopped talking, turned around and entered the side hall.

It wasn't until she entered the back room that Qingli said: "The servant has gone to Shuiyue Palace, don't worry, miss, the servant will not let Yubi hurt you again."

"You threatened Yubi?" Hu Yan guessed right in an instant.

Her eyes were complicated, her expression was a little unbelievable, but also a little puzzled.

"Why... You have no reason to do this. You and I know that my father asked you to monitor me, but he didn't say he asked you to protect me."

Although she was born in an official family, she has seen clearly the warmth and coldness of the world since she was a child. If her father doesn't like her, she will do her duty as the eldest daughter and will not be annoying.She won't feel resentment when her aunt and concubine compete for favor, because she knows that no matter how much she fights and wins back, her father's heart is already biased.

In this family, she kept her duty, lived her life quietly, and did not expect others.The only thing that worries her is her young brother.

When the grandmother was around, the father could restrain himself a bit, but since the grandmother passed away, he became more and more unscrupulous, blatantly favoring the concubine sister and concubine brother, and putting her real brother in an embarrassing situation.

She was heartbroken, but there was nothing she could do.

Hu Yan was really scared. She was afraid that her father would lose his mind and pass on the foundation of the Hu family to his younger brother, leaving her younger brother as a shoestring.

She has already passed the age of innocence. She knows very well that no matter what you do, you have to pay a price. Unless you are of value, why should others help you.

So, she was really puzzled, why Qingli would do that, she had no reason to do this, what good would it do her to help her?

"What do you want from me?" Hu Yan took a deep breath, clenched her fists, and asked pretending to be calm.

She thought about it, and there was only one possibility.

Qingli took a deep look at her and sighed inwardly.

She understands Xiaomei's concerns, understands her uneasiness, and she doesn't think about telling her the truth now.

She could only reply indifferently: "Miss will know in the future."

As soon as the words fell, Qingli could clearly see that Xiaomei let out a sigh of relief, as if she had solved her serious problem.

Qingli: "..."

Don't stop her, she's going to collapse!

system:【! ! !Host calm down!Calm down! 】

Qingli's feeling now is like the aggrieved feeling that someone who is very close and familiar with you suddenly doesn't know you the next second, and is still on guard against you and doesn't trust you.

Chest tightness, a little uncomfortable.

This was the first time she felt that acting...wasn't that good either.

After this incident, the concubines in the harem calmed down a bit and stopped making trouble for Hu Yan.

Presumably this is also the Queen's warning to them.

After the emperor woke up, the harem exploded again.

The emperor quickly summoned Hu Yan.

In Qiankun Palace, the emperor was still lying on the couch, wearing only a white inner garment and a thin quilt.

The current emperor is over half a hundred years old, his temples are gray, the hall of tears is black, the whites of his eyes are yellow, and his lips are colorless.

Obviously, it is kidney deficiency and weakness caused by excessive indulgence.

But even so, the emperor's eyes looked at the alluring beauty standing below with his hands down without blinking, his eyes gleaming.

Noticing the emperor's gaffe, an imperial physician beside him immediately approached his ear, and said earnestly, "Your majesty, you are weak now, so you must not have sex again, or you will lose your health."

It was said that the emperor was a little disappointed, but after the imperial doctor said so, the passion for that matter also dissipated a lot.

Although a beauty is beautiful, if you ruin your body for a woman, then it is a small loss.

Hu Yan looked calm, but no one saw her, and the hands under her sleeves were trembling faintly.

Although she knew that she would be the Emperor's man sooner or later, physical resistance would not be deceiving.

She is afraid.

Qingli stood behind Hu Yan, secretly observing the emperor's every move.She knew that according to the plot, the emperor would not take action against Xiaomei now, but it was just a plot after all, who knows if there will be any changes.

If the emperor thinks about it, disregarding her own body, and intends to force her, then she has no choice but to change her original plan.

In short, no matter what you say, it is impossible to humiliate Xiaomei.

Fortunately, although the emperor was lustful, he was not so confused. He just sighed with regret, and directly canonized Hu Yan as Zhaoyi, rewarding many things, and even Prime Minister Hu also got a lot of benefits.

The emperor's move caused a lot of commotion in the harem, but it's a pity that the emperor has to abstain from sex for a while, and the concubines can't help it even if they try their best.

"Snapped!"

Water Moon Palace.

Yu Bin overturned a bronze mirror to the ground, and the mirror was smashed to pieces, her delicate face was full of sternness at the moment.

"Damn it, damn it! Why is that bitch Hu Yan!"

The palace maids knelt on the ground, trembling, and kept silent.

Hu Yan, the unfavored prime minister's daughter, was directly conferred the title of Zhaoyi, one rank lower than her. This was the first time that the title was conferred. Someday the emperor will be in a good mood, and he might mention her again.

By then, Hu Yan, that humble daughter of a petty official, will be on an equal footing with her!

How could this not make Yubin angry?

"Young lady, don't be angry, be careful not to get angry." Bi Lian whispered from the side.

After venting, Yubi's mood eased a lot, she waved her hand, and ordered in a cold voice: "Go and take out the pair of red gold pomegranate bracelets, find a servant to send them over, and treat it as a congratulatory gift for Hu Zhaoyi .”

Bilian hesitated: "Your Majesty, don't you like that pair of bracelets the most? You don't even want to wear them."

"Presumptuous!" Yu Bin shouted angrily.

"It's just a pair of bracelets, I don't care for them! I haven't seen any good things, do I need you, a lowly maid, to talk about them!"

Bilian was frightened, and hurriedly went to get the bracelet.

Yu Bin's eyes were dark: "So what about Hu Zhaoyi? I'm afraid...she doesn't have that fate!"

Since Hu Yan was canonized, many concubines in the harem have come to get close to her, all of them smiling, but not sure how to scold her in their hearts.

Hu Yan entered the palace not for herself, but only for her younger brother. She didn't want to compete for favor, let alone get involved in the struggle among the women in the harem.

After seeing Hu Yan's reluctance, many concubines lost their patience and left angrily.

There was only one person who happily came to Hu Yan's palace every day, even though Hu Yan's attitude towards her was still lukewarm, she seemed to be fine.

"Sister Hu, I'm really sorry for bothering you these days. But I don't have anyone close to me in the palace. When I saw my sister for the first time, I felt very kind, so I came to chat with her every day to relieve my boredom."

The woman is wearing a pink skirt, with a gold-encrusted jade bud on the side of her hair, and the hanging tassels swing with her movements, lifelike and swaying.

"Sister, you don't like me making such a fuss. If you don't like it, my sister won't bother her in the future."

The woman blinked a pair of watery eyes, stretched out her hand to hold Hu Yan's hand, her appearance was delicate and naive, making people think she was cute and cute at first glance.

Hu Yan pulled out her hand indiscriminately, and said softly: "What are you talking about, you come to relieve my boredom, I really wish for it."

"My sister is so kind. I just learned the hibiscus cake. I'll make it tomorrow and bring it to my sister to try." The woman smiled, as if she didn't have any troubles.

After the woman left, Qing Li stepped forward, picked up the teacup that the woman had just drunk, and told Wan Xing, "Take it and throw it away."

"Yes."

Wan Xing followed suit, not daring to have any scruples.

These days, she has been raped by Qingli to make her obedient [-]%. Although she is still stupid, she will not be as brainless and pretty as in the plot.

No matter how bad it is, Qingli is watching, forgive her for not doing anything out of line.

"Miss is doing this to lure the snake out of its hole?"

Qingli looked at the beauty who was holding tea and sipping tea at the red-brown wooden table, and asked in a low voice.

According to Xiaomei's personality, how could she be able to play Tai Chi with Shen Jieyu patiently, then there is only one possibility.

The beauty lowered her eyes and smiled lightly, her temperament was gentle, but she also had hidden thorns, if she was not careful, she would be pierced to the point of bleeding.

"Shen Jieyu's motives are not pure, and she has been annoyed all the time. It's better to solve it as soon as possible."

Sure enough.

Just as Hu Yan planned, she no longer resisted Shen Jieyu's approach, and made friends with her naturally, today you give me a plate of pastries, tomorrow I will give you a box of rouge.

Under Hu Yan's subtle influence, Shen Jieyu quickly believed in her heart that Hu Yan already regarded her as the closest person.

"Sister, the weather is fine today, so don't be bored, why don't we go to the Imperial Garden for a walk." Shen Jieyu held Hu Yan's sleeve and said with a smile.

"Okay." Hu Yan also smiled, but her eyes were unusually indifferent.

Qingli lowered her eyelids, covering the strange light that flashed in her eyes.

The fish... finally took the bait.
