Wei Yingluo raised the white jade jug to her mouth and took a sip into the mouth of the jug. When Hongli frowned, she suddenly twisted her body and said in a delicate voice: "Your Majesty, my concubine treats you with all my heart, but you see Go on that fox spirit and leave the concubine aside, the concubine can't think about it for a while, so she will deliberately target her! Even if the concubines are bad, it's because they love you!"

That look, that style, that tone of voice and action when she complained, was exactly the same as that of Xiao Jiaconcubine!

Hongli was stunned, Wei Yingluo suddenly lost the wine jug in her hand, and her manners were no longer pretentious. She slowly walked to the vase, picked an orchid in her hand, and didn't sniff it in front of her.

... just like a pure imperial concubine.

"Ling Concubine and Lord Fucha have known each other before, but they bumped into each other by chance and said a few words." She looked gentle, and even her voice became similar to the other party's, "Even if there is a real affair, it is all in the past. It's a matter, now that Ling Concubine has entered the palace, the past has become a thing of the past. Your Majesty, the concubine believes that Ling Concubine is definitely not the kind of woman who is shameless."

"Wei Yingluo..." Hongli looked at her in shock and doubt, "What the hell are you doing?"

Wei Yingluo put the flower back into the bottle, then returned to Hongli's side, and followed her step by step, she gradually changed from a pure noble concubine to a successor, respectfully and dignifiedly said: "Please Rest assured, Your Majesty, as the lord of the six palaces, this palace will definitely investigate those who spread rumors behind it, and make my concubine innocent."

Hongli couldn't help but pulled her over and stared at her for a long time, his eyes half suspicious and half suspicious.

"Not long after you entered the palace, you are familiar with them one by one." He said slowly, "Listening to what you just said, it's as if you heard what they said."

He suspected that Wei Yingluo had bribed the palace servants of other palaces, and even bought the palace servants around him.

But when you think about it, it's impossible.

If Wei Yingluo really has such hands and eyes, then she wouldn't be able to see her in the imperial garden and meet Fu Heng privately. I'm afraid that someone would have tipped her off a long time ago and told her to avoid her, and there would be nothing like this after that. .

Seeing that Wei Yingluo smiled smugly, she sat on his lap generously, tilted her head and said to him, "It's not a big deal, after all, women know women best."

The enemy knows the enemy best - Hongli added the last sentence in her heart, with a very calm face: "You know how they talk about you behind your back, and you dare to meet Fucha Fu Heng in the garden?"

coming!

Wei Yingluo was refreshed and knew that tonight's drama was coming.

His calmness is only superficial calmness. If he could really face this matter calmly, he would not have avoided seeing him for so many days.

On the other hand, Wei Yingluo couldn't take the initiative to mention this matter. When he mentioned it, the thorn in his heart had to be pierced even deeper. Only by doing everything possible to let him take the initiative to bring it up can he get a chance to resolve it.

"What difference does it make if I go or not?" Wei Yingluo shrugged and replied nonchalantly, "If I turn around and leave, then they have to say, oh, that concubine, as soon as they see Fucha The adults turned around and left, what a guilty conscience!"

Hongli laughed.

If she really didn't care, she wouldn't show up in Jiangnan City, she wouldn't wear this dress, she wouldn't speak to him in an authentic Wu Nong's soft language: "This guest, do you want to drink? Sangluo, Xinfeng, Chrysanthemum, Zhuyeqing, and Erhong, which one do the guests want?"

"Your Majesty, the rumors confuse the public, and the three become tigers." Sure enough, she quickly recovered her indifference and looked at him seriously, "Concubine, I hope you can give me a little more trust while pampering me. Otherwise , even if I am iron bones, I will be consumed by their spit into slag!"

In fact, Hongli had already lost half of his anger.

After all, compared to her private meeting with Fu Heng, he was more annoyed by her indifference to him.

Seeing that she cares about herself like this now makes me satisfied, like a tiger with hanging eyes whose chin is being rubbed, her eyes squinted, one finger lifts her chin, and she says with a smile, not a smile: "In the harem, you are the one with the most attention. , always come to tease me..."

Wei Yingluo also laughed. The previous jug was placed on the low table beside them. She took the jug over again and shook it at him. Guest, do you want to drink this pot of wine?"

"What wine?" Hongli asked with a smile, "Sangluo, Xinfeng, Chrysanthemum, Zhuyeqing, or Daughter Hong?"

"None of them, the name of this wine... it's called Yingluo." Wei Yingluo took a sip from the spout and kissed it.

Blindly named Yingluo drink, along her lips, crossed into his throat, moistened his heart.

The hibiscus tent is warm, from night to dawn.

The news of Wei Yingluo's re-acquisition of grace spread throughout the palaces, and the most annoyed among them was the Concubine Chun.

"Not only did the queen come to borrow flowers to offer Buddha, but now even Wei Yingluo has come to borrow my Dongfeng!" Concubine Chungui bit her nails, apparently already knowing that Wei Yingluo dressed up as a wine maid and attracted Hongli to the past.

"Miss, calm down, the top priority is to do a good job of donating first." Yuhu comforted him.

"Yes, Israel's servants are only temporary, fame is a long-term thing." Concubine Chungui glanced at Brother Liu who was sleeping not far away, her eyes softened, "It's not for this palace, but also for Brother Six. Good reputation, can only be a picture later... "

Although the matter of donating property was brought up later, Jiangnan City was originally created by Chun Guifei. She quickly took over this errand. After three months of hard work, it finally paid off. Snow covered the capital on this day, oil-paper umbrellas were propped up on the heads of the nobles, looking down from the top, like colorful blooming flowers.

"The Empress Dowager." Concubine Chungui supported the Empress Dowager and smiled, "In the past three months, all the donations from the palaces have been in place, and many Fujin and Ming women have also generously donated their money when they heard the news. One day, the ministers and palace servants will participate, and when the preparations are made outside Shenwumen, the palace market will be moved out and opened to the merchants and people, and all the money raised will be donated."

The Queen Mother smiled and nodded.

Afterwards, he also laughed: "Queen Mother, Concubine Chungui has come up with specific regulations early, and it can be implemented only after the emperor has read it. In the future, the market outside Shenwumen will be opened every fourth month every month, and department stores will be displayed and traded. Go elsewhere, directly out of the warehouse here, the proceeds can be used to subsidize the expenses, or donated in full."

Concubine Chungui did not forget to please the Queen Mother, and said: "When the Queen Mother is interested, she can also go to the palace market and take a look at the businessman's love. Of course, this is only given by the concubine and the situation of Mingshi. One idea, if the queen mother thinks something is wrong, the concubine will change it immediately."

The queen mother patted her hand: "Chun Guifei, these ideas are very good, I like them very much, you are bothered."

Concubine Chungui smiled sweetly: "Look at the Queen Mother, there is an antique stall in front of you, selling bronze wares from the Xuande period, and enamels newly made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs this year, let's go and have a look together."

The queen mother was originally smiling, but she froze when she saw the antique stall. Aunt Liu, who was beside her, stepped forward to take a look and said in surprise, "The Queen Mother, this is something lost from Shoukang Palace!"

She went forward and picked it up, and after a while, she picked up a lot of things: "Look, this jade ring finger, this sapphire Ruyi, and this flower spit pot... Aren't they all old things from the former Shoukang Palace? It disappeared, and the entire Forbidden City has been searched, but it has disappeared, and now it has appeared in the palace market!"

"Ah!" Mingyu suddenly squeezed out of the crowd and shouted, "Master, isn't this the embroidered shackle you lost?"

The people in the palace were watching the fun, but after hearing what she said, they also stepped forward. As a result, you and I also found a lot of lost things.

"What palace market is, it's clearly a den of thieves!" Xiao Jiapin pouted, she also found a pair of stolen Dongzhu pendants on the stall, and naturally she would not miss such an opportunity to attack a rival in love, "We lost it in the palace. All the things that you have come to the palace market to sell, and the money you get will be used to make up for the shortfall in the palace, oh, this abacus is really good!"

With such a black pot on her head, Concubine Pure Concubine sweated out, knelt down in front of the Queen Mother and said, "The Queen Mother, someone must know that the palace market is open, and deliberately mixed these jewels into it and took the opportunity to sell it, the concubine really doesn't know. !"

Xiao Jiabi rolled her eyes: "To put it lightly, the eunuchs in the palace have dirty hands and feet, and there is a huge chain of interests behind them. How to transport them, how to avoid people's eyes and ears, how to sell the stolen goods, and how to divide them up in the end, all are A set of a set, who knows if the pure noble concubine received the benefits of others and became a part of it!"

Concubine Chungui's face changed greatly, and she hurriedly said for herself: "The queen mother, the concubine is really ignorant, I never thought that those inferior things would dare to sell the stolen goods through the palace market, the concubine must strictly investigate the source, please forgive the queen mother! "

A good deed has changed completely. The queen mother felt tired and said lightly: "I'm tired, let's go back to the palace first."

Everyone respectfully sent the Queen Mother away, and then walked to Concubine Chungui with their hands behind, and sighed: "Concubine Chung, you are too careless in doing things, and the good-looking palace market has been mixed with stolen goods. , but when things spread out, everyone would say that you used the palace market to sell stolen goods. This reputation is really ugly. I hope you will check it out, what is going on!"

It took so much effort and even put in so much money for the errand that I finally got, but I didn't expect it to get this result. Concubine Chungui hated her teeth, but she could only answer on her face: "...Yes."

There are few icing on the cake, and there are many downfalls. How could the concubines let go of such a good opportunity? No matter if something was lost in the palace, whether it was something in their own palace, they all came to identify it.

Wei Yingluo has never been a good person, let alone a master who can hold back her voice, she also came over and pointed at the stall: "This, this, and this are all from my Yanxi Palace, I don't like Others are rich and very poor, and they still have to take these treasures back!"

Concubine Chungui's eyes were extremely cold, someone was framing her and deliberately burying stolen goods in the palace market to obliterate her credit.

Who did it, what Concubine Chung suspected most was Wei Yingluo!

"Wei Yingluo!" Concubine Chungui tentatively said with resentment in her eyes, "You are so good!"

Wei Yingluo blinked her eyes and replied without leaking: "What is the concubine talking about, it's just returning to the original owner, why are you so angry? Is it really as they said, that the concubine protected the eunuch who stole? No, no, the concubine is Talented woman in Suzhou, money is so dirty, you naturally don't touch it, others don't believe in you, I believe in you!"

This sentence sounds familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, it seems to be the part that Concubine Chungui persuaded Hongli before - "Ling Concubine and Lord Fucha have known each other before, but they bumped into it by chance and said two sentences. It's all a matter of the past. Now that your concubine has entered the palace, the past has become a thing of the past. Your majesty, the concubine believes that your concubine is definitely not the kind of woman who is shameless."

Insinuation, like believe it or not.

Concubine Chung stared at her for a long time, and suddenly smiled: "Okay! Good! Come on, help the concubine to move all her things back, and not a single piece is allowed to fall!"

The mighty, piece by piece of stolen goods returned to their original owners and returned to the Yanxi Palace.

Playing with an embroidered robe, Wei Yingluo looked at the little eunuch kneeling in front of her, and said with a half-smile, "Little Quanzi, you did a great job!"
