be a quiet golden finger

In spring, a hundred flowers bloom, colorful and lively.

The willow branch led An Lingrong to the path he usually walks, not only enjoyed the scenery in the imperial garden, but also didn't run into those people An Lingrong didn't want to meet.

"The father-in-law who takes care of the imperial garden secretly moved this path. On weekdays, if there is an emergency, walking this path will save you a lot of time!" Liu Zhi pointed her toes as she spoke. , to push the twigs on An Lingrong's head.

"It's really good, the flowers are all in bloom." Seeing such a beautiful scenery, An Lingrong's mood really improved a lot.

Zhang Qianqian was also very happy. It was late autumn when An Lingrong entered the palace, and later in winter, the flowers in the imperial garden were almost withered. Even if there were good flowers, they were sent to Concubine Hua and the others' palace. , which round will get the An Lingrong reward!

This time I saw such lush flowers in the imperial garden, it was really the first time in half a year.

"The apricot garden is in front of it. It's blooming very well. When the wind blows, it's full of sweet-scented osmanthus. The father-in-law of the imperial garden said that he has to sweep the ground several times a day. The apricot petals that have been swept up are decorated with A few baskets, placed in the courtyard of the side room, are even better than incense." Liuzhi obviously has a good relationship with the father who sweeps the imperial garden, chattering with his mouth, and never leaves him.

An Lingrong looked at Liu Zhi thoughtfully, but said nothing.Zhang Qianqian, on the other hand, had already floated several meters ahead, jumping around among those short flowers and tall trees, like a transparent butterfly, reflecting the scenery of flowers and trees.

Arriving under an apricot blossom tree, Liu Zhi took out the clean cloth bag he had prepared from his sleeve, and was carefully stroking the apricot blossom petals on the branch.An Lingrong was looking at the apricot trees one by one to see which one bloomed better.Since we are going to make a sachet, of course we have to choose the right one for use. If there is too much, we can make it into a balm or powder, so it is not a waste.

Suddenly, Zhang Qianqian floated back again, pointing his fingers up, telling An Lingrong to follow her quietly without talking.An Lingrong was puzzled, but thinking that Zhang Qianqian would not harm her, and saw that the willow branch was still concentrating on collecting petals, he hid his figure in the almond blossom bushes and quietly went to the side.

It was a small pavilion, and there were many trees planted beside the pavilion, which could just block An Lingrong's water-green clothes.A woman's laughter came from under the pavilion, An Lingrong heard it very familiar, she quietly looked up.

"Liu Zhu, you are playing tricks behind your back!" Zhen Huan was sitting on the swing and was having fun, but when she turned her head and saw the figure of a man, she was startled.

"This isn't..." An Lingrong was extremely surprised, just after speaking half a sentence, he saw Zhang Qianqian made a silent gesture, and hurriedly covered his mouth.

"Isn't this sister Zhen and... the emperor?" An Lingrong was terrified when he saw Zhen Huan playing with the emperor and asking the emperor to push her on the swing.

"Don't make noise, listen carefully." Of course Zhang Qianqian knew it was the emperor, and she didn't expect that the day when An Lingrong went out was such a coincidence that she could see the emperor dating Zhen Huan.

Of course, Zhang Qianqian took An Lingrong to see this, not because he wanted to catch Zhen Huan's pigtails.Zhen Huan's private meeting with the emperor is not her braid!

But for An Lingrong, knowing about this and reminding Zhen Huan at the right time, Zhen Huan must be more grateful to An Lingrong, right?

"Sister Zhen is really amazing, she is not afraid of the emperor at all." An Lingrong said in her heart.

"Listen carefully, what does she call the emperor?" Zhang Qianqian reminded.

An Lingrong listened for a while, and when she heard that Zhen Huan called the emperor a prince, and the emperor deserved a calm face, she was surprised and couldn't believe it.

"This... Sister Zhen has never met the emperor, does she recognize the emperor as a prince?"

"Zhen Huan admitted his mistake, but look at the emperor, he deliberately made Zhen Huan admit his mistake! Seeing too many women who treat him respectfully, he is too bored to play house games with Zhen Huan!"

In order to eliminate the shadow of An Lingrong's fear of the emperor, Zhang Qianqian spared no effort to discredit the emperor, "Of course we have to be respectful to the emperor, but you see, the emperor sometimes prefers lively and polite women. Don't be afraid of him if you make mistakes, he is also a monarch who can distinguish right from wrong, and will not punish people randomly."

"You, you, how can you say that about the emperor!" Hearing Zhang Qianqian say that the emperor is still a monarch who can distinguish right from wrong, An Lingrong was so frightened that he almost lost his courage.If someone overhears it, they will lose their heads!

"Why can't you say it?" Zhang Qianqian was born in the new century, and the feudal society disappeared more than 100 years ago. It is a matter of course to treat the emperor as an ordinary person.Besides her current state, even if she said something that others thought was treasonous, beheading her would not be able to kill her!

But, An Lingrong is still a citizen of the emperor, so we can't teach her badly.So Zhang Qianqian remembered her fairy coat, and explained: "I'm a fairy, so I can speak of the emperor naturally, just listen to it, don't make a fuss."

After hearing Zhang Qianqian's explanation, An Lingrong could accept it.After all, Zhang Qianqian is a fairy, and it is understandable that a fairy is more noble than a mortal emperor.Not to mention the emperor, the queen mother also recites Buddha's name!

After listening to Zhen Huan and the emperor talking for a while, seeing that the two had made an appointment to meet again in five days, Zhang Qianqian urged An Lingrong to quietly retreat to the apricot tree.The willow branches had just filled a bag of apricot blossoms, seeing An Lingrong coming over with a pensive look on her face, she thought she was tired from shopping, so she asked if she wanted to go back.

An Lingrong nodded, and the two quietly went back along the way they came.Unfortunately, on the way back, I ran into the lively Chun Changzai.

Liu Zhi thought that An Lingrong was going to be sad or angry, but An Lingrong was thinking about Zhen Huan, but he didn't think about being laughed at at all, so he just bowed as usual and left.

Of course, this is also because Chun Changzai is still childish, eating or wandering around all day long, and he doesn't like to laugh at others like other concubines.

She and An Lingrong lived far away, and they hadn't seen each other on weekdays except when they greeted An Lingrong, and they hadn't even spoken a few words in the past six months.When I met An Lingrong this time, let alone laughing at her, she didn't even say anything coquettish like she did to Zhen Huan and Xin Changzai.

Back in the wing room, An Lingrong was still thinking about Zhen Huan's affairs, even holding the embroidery needle in her hand, she didn't make a stitch for a long time.

"Say, should I remind Sister Zhen?" An Lingrong asked Zhang Qianqian.

"I want to say it, but I have to pick a suitable time." Zhang Qianqian was drooling looking at the snacks on the table. She hadn't eaten or drank any water since she became Ah Piao.Although she is neither hungry nor thirsty, food is the most important thing for the people, and their appetite is greater than the sky!

Not being able to eat delicious food or drink good tea is really the biggest punishment for her.

"My lord, Yu promised to be favored by the emperor again! Previously, Xin Changzai was imprisoned in the Punishment Department, but he was only confined for half a month. Now that he is favored again, I really don't know what he has given to the emperor..." Bao Juan went out to see the prestige of Yu Xu, and when she came back, she saw An Lingrong doing needlework again, she was angry, and she couldn't hold back her mouth and started talking nonsense.

"Baojuan, last time I punished you for sweeping the ground for a month, it seems that you still haven't made your memory long. Could it be that you have to sweep the ground for another two months?" An Lingrong said without raising his head, only with disgust in his tone. The meaning couldn't be more obvious.

Although she has no future, she is still the emperor's woman after all. With her status, it is more than enough to suppress her maid of honor.

Baojuan hasn't found someone to serve her next family yet, knowing that An Lingrong is still her master, it's easy to admit her mistake: "My lord, I know I was wrong, so I won't talk nonsense in the future." Ling Rong took care of the willow branches, and didn't want to accompany the two of them in the side room doing needlework, so he said again: "My lord, the flowers in the imperial garden are blooming, let me go and pick some good ones and come back to arrange the flowers?"

An Lingrong complied, and told Baojuan, "Just buy some good ones and come back. You don't have to look for good ones." If you insist on finding good ones, An Lingrong might cause trouble again.

After Baojuan left, Liu Zhi opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he hesitated for a while, then closed his mouth again.After all, Baojuan is a court lady one level higher than her. Although An Lingrong likes her, it seems that there is no good in giving Baojuan eye drops.Moreover, Baojuan's virtues, could it be that Xiaozhu An still can't see it?

An Lingrong didn't pay attention to Baojuan's disagreement, nor did he take Liuzhi's hesitation to heart.

After half a year in the palace, she also looked at the warmth and coldness of people, and she gradually knew who was loyal and who was not.It has been a long time to see people's hearts, if Liu Zhi has always been sensible, then she will treat each other sincerely, and Bao Juan doesn't have to worry about it, even if he climbs another high branch, it will not be a pity.

Five days later, it was the day when the emperor and Zhen Huan agreed to meet.

It was dark and it was raining heavily, and Liu Zhi persuaded An Lingrong not to do needlework, so as not to hurt his eyes.An Lingrong remembers that Zhen Huan and the emperor met and didn't bother to embroider, so she lay at the window and watched the heavy rain.

"You said it was raining so hard, would Sister Zhen go to the appointment?" An Lingrong looked at the heavy rain and worried.

"Of course I will, Zhen Huan is very trustworthy." Zhang Qianqian floated on the porch, reaching out to play with the rain, the raindrops passed through her hand, she suddenly felt very boring.

"You said, with such a heavy rain, will the emperor go to the appointment?" An Lingrong asked again, she was very worried and curious.

"The emperor? Maybe go back, he is also a very trustworthy person." Zhang Qianqian thought for a while, and the impression of the emperor's character design must be trustworthy.Although the rain is heavy, if the emperor insists on going, there is no way he will fail.

"But, what if the fathers-in-law stop you? What if the government is busy? What if no one reminds the emperor to forget?" An Lingrong suddenly thought of something, and sat up straight all of a sudden, "Oh, if the emperor doesn't go, Sister Zhen is still waiting, what can I do in this heavy rain!"

Seeing An Lingrong's startled look, Zhang Qianqian immediately felt it was funny, and said, "Since you are worried and curious, why don't you go and have a look. If Zhen Huan is really waiting there alone, you can persuade her to go back. "

An Lingrong thought so in his heart, after hearing Zhang Qianqian's encouragement, he hurriedly put on his shoes and called, "Willow branch, willow branch, find my cloak quickly!"

"Hey, don't wear these small cloth shoes, change to a pair of better shoes, don't get cold feet!" Zhang Qianqian reminded from the side.She didn't want An Lingrong to go out in the rain and get sick.

After hastily tidying up her cloak and shoes, An Lingrong quietly went out with willow branches and an oiled paper umbrella.
