Two people came forward to say hello.
Shen Chuliu waved his hand: "No need to be polite."
"Is the empress here to enjoy the flowers?" Fang Xiaoyi asked.
"I'm here to pick flowers." Shen Chuliu said calmly, and Mei Mei had already selected a few flowers and was asking the eunuch of the imperial garden in front of him for scissors.
"It seems that the queen doesn't really love flowers. If she really loves flowers, she should let them grow old on the branches." Fang Xiaoyi smiled.
"You talk too much." Shen Chuliu was too lazy to pay attention to this provocation.
"What the empress said is that I am just a little girl, so naturally I don't want to talk much. I just thought that the empress was..." She paused when she finished speaking.
"Haha." Shen Chuliu smiled softly: "Since you newcomers entered the palace, I rarely hang out outside except to greet you."
Fang Xiaoyi smiled, but it was not obvious: "Your Majesty, what you said is very modest. The bride can't hide your Majesty's glory."
"No, no, no, Fang Xiaoyi, you got it wrong." Shen Chuliu raised her lips: "I mean, the reason why I haven't been hanging out for so long is because of my bad temper. What if I hit someone and break it? ?”
"What does your Majesty mean by this? Of course I have heard of your Majesty's feats, but I didn't do anything..."
"Yeah, you didn't do anything. You were just provoking and testing. Now that Fang Xiaoyi is favored, and this new favorite has met me, wouldn't it be very honorable if he can come back victorious?" Shen Chuliu smiled softly: "Then Have you ever thought that if I take advantage of you, I will show the people in this palace that I am still as charming as ever?"
"I don't understand what I mean." Fang Xiaoyi bit her lip.
"Oh, it's okay. It was you who plotted against me, and now I refuse to let you go. Isn't this fair? Give her ten slaps. Be careful not to hurt her face. After all, this is capital. ." Shen Chuliu's voice was as gentle as ever.
Fang Xiaoyi was shocked and took a step back: "Can the empress want to be lynched?"
"Xiaoyi contradicts Empress Xiuyi. The punishment is not much. Even if you are not convinced, you can go to Fengzao Palace and tell her the same thing." Jimei smiled.
Fang Xiaoyi scratched her neck: "I don't accept it!"
"It's easy to make yourself angry if you don't accept it too much." Shen Chuliu said.
"I'm not convinced, I'm going to invite the emperor!" Fang Xiaoyi didn't want to be beaten, so naturally she couldn't force him.
"Oh, then go ahead and ask the emperor to come." Shen Chuliu smiled: "Since you don't want to be beaten, then kneel down. Otherwise, if you are still so stubborn after bumping into a high-ranking concubine, how can you talk to the emperor?" To please?"
Fang Xiaoyi was so angry that she knelt down after a while.
Zhao Yunu didn't know what to do for a long time and didn't dare to say a word.
"Where are the scissors? Pick the flowers first." Shen Chuliu said.
The little eunuch on the side hurriedly handed it over.
Shen Chuliu picked up the beautiful hydrangea and handed it to the little eunuch: "Go and take it to Cuiyunxuan. Remember to tell them that they will reward you with money and fruits."
The young eunuch was not very old, probably around 14 or 15 years old. He hurriedly picked him up, thanked Shen Chuliu, and left.
Shen Chuliu took Zi Rui up to the pavilion, regardless of the people kneeling below.
"Zhao Yunu, are you going back? Or are you coming to drink tea?" Shen Chuliu asked.
Zhao Yunv hesitated for a long time and then said: "I, my concubine, drink tea with your Majesty."
Now that we're gone, how will we get along with Fang Xiaoyi in the future
Now I can only grit my teeth and go up.
When Shen Chuliu said drinking tea, he really drank tea. It was not hot yet, and the wind was still comfortable.
Qi Yi's cultivation was not too slow. He couldn't have nothing to do, but besides giving birth to heirs and balancing all parties, the women in the harem were naturally also his pleasure.
Especially, Shen Chuliu invited him.
Qi Yixiu was wearing a silver-white robe today, with a red gold dragon-patterned hair crown, and the patterns outlined by gold threads on the clothes were faintly visible in the sunlight. I also took a folding fan. The style of walking is elegant and graceful.
Shen Chuliu stood up and said greetings in the pavilion: "May your Majesty be blessed."
Zhao Yunu also hurriedly followed to greet him.
However, Qi Yixiu only had time to wave his hand when he saw Fang Xiaoyi kneeling below with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty... you are here."
"What are you talking about? I asked people to invite the emperor. Didn't Fang Xiaoyi know that the emperor was coming? Why do you still dislike the emperor coming?" Shen Chuliu said coolly.
Qi Yixiu shook his head: "Come up and talk."
With that said, he walked up to the pavilion first.
Fang Xiaoyi was helped up and climbed into the pavilion.
"What are you concubines doing?" Qi Yixiu asked with a smile as he sat down.
"Concubine, please don't rush to speak. Let's ask Fang Xiaoyi to speak first." Shen Chuliu poured tea for Qi Yixiu.
Fang Xiaoyi was crying and wiping her tears: "Your Majesty, I am my concubine, isn't it..."
"Since it's your fault, why are you crying?" Shen Chuliu stopped him in one sentence.
Fang Xiaoyi never expected that this person would be so disrespectful in front of the emperor.
So he continued resolutely: "I said a few more words, but Empress Xiuyi will not beat me...and those words you said..."
She originally thought that Jing Xiuyi would be worried after saying this.
But Jing Xiuyi just smiled: "Didn't you say it was your fault? How come it's not your fault anymore?"
Fang Xiaoyi gritted her teeth: "Mingzhu, tell me, don't miss a word of what you just said."
She knew how powerful this girl's memory was.
Mingzhu stepped forward and knelt down, not missing a single word from the moment they met.
Shen Chuliu was not in a hurry and just listened. After listening, he glanced at Qi Yixiu with a smile.
Today she is wearing a snow-green undershirt and her hair is in a simple bun. Sitting in this pavilion, it feels like you can blend in because of the hydrangeas below.
One pair of eyes were obviously hooked, not so pretty, but very long and narrow.
Her red lips were dotted with red lipstick, and her long fingernails were also bright red.
She just looked at herself slyly.
"Your Majesty, although I shouldn't talk too much, my concubine is really not what Empress Jing Xiuyi imagined..." Fang Xiaoyi was still crying.
"In this harem, everyone has their own characteristics. Isn't Han Xiaoyi the characteristic of crying? Why is Fang Xiaoyi so obsessed with it?" Shen Chuliu said and laughed: "Oh, I am going off topic. Your Majesty, you Look, you have forgotten about your old one when you have a new one. I’m not old enough yet. Don’t you believe it? This means that your beauty will end before you grow old.”
Qi Yixiu didn't speak a word just now, just drinking tea leisurely.
Hearing her say this now, knowing that she was being narrow-minded, he laughed: "She bumped into you, what do you want to do?"
"Your Majesty!" Fang Xiaoyi was shocked.
"Well, does that count as the emperor punishing her or the concubine?" Shen Chuliu asked, tilting his head.
Qi Yixiu thought this was interesting: "Oh? Is there any difference?"
"Of course there is a difference. The concubine punished me because she bumped into me, and I couldn't bear it. The emperor punished me because he was dissatisfied with Fang Xiaoyi." Shen Chuliu gently pulled Qi Yixiu's sleeve: " What do you think?"
