This little thing in the palace did not affect the original plans. For example, the chrysanthemums sent to the palace from various places were very good, and the ones this year bloomed more beautifully, so chrysanthemums were placed in many places in the harem.
The precious chrysanthemums are placed inside and outside Lingshuang Pavilion.
Shen Chuliu went out to enjoy flowers. She changed into a lavender dress and a simple fairy bun. Looking from behind, she looked really delicate and elegant.
Although it was past fifteen, the weather was still very warm, so I still carried a fan.
There was no one in Lingshuang Pavilion now. Shen Chuliu came over with Zizhu and Zhemei and looked at them one by one.
The eunuch who was waiting here explained: "This is a green peacock. It is not fully bloomed yet, but it will look like a peacock when it is fully bloomed! This is the most precious flower. You see, there are only four pots of green. Chrysanthemums are expensive and difficult to cultivate. Ordinary green chrysanthemums are rare, and it is even rarer to grow like this. "
Shen Chuliu nodded: "It looks good."
"My dear, look at this again. This is a beauty crying." The eunuch introduced.
I saw only pink chrysanthemums. The so-called weeping means that the petals are hanging down and growing.
"This pot is called Lilac Bo Ji. It is said that Bo Ji during the Han Dynasty loved purple the most. But I think she just loves purple. Your Majesty, you look good in anything you wear." The little eunuch said sweetly.
Shen Chuliu smiled: "You are quite clever."
The little eunuch smiled naively: "I don't dare to make the empress unhappy."
"Hey, is Empress Jing Xiuyi here too?" Beauty Ying smiled and stepped forward to greet her.
And in front of her was Ning Chongyi.
"Jing Xiuyi is in a good mood today." Ning Chongyi said.
"Same, but why did you get together? It's strange." Shen Chuliu looked at them.
"We just bumped into each other." Ning Chongyi obviously didn't want to be with Ying Meiren.
"Speaking of which, does Jing Xiuyi know that the emperor is going to the north soon?" Ning Chongyi said suddenly.
"Is it the Northern Patrol?" Shen Chuliu said: "I really don't know, but since Ning Chongyi knows about it, it must be the emperor who wants to take you there?"
"Didn't I sleep with you yesterday? I guess there will be news tomorrow." Ning Chongyi smiled, but did not deny it.
Ying Meiren was very sour: "After all, it is Empress Ning Chongyi who is favored, but Empress Jing Xiuyi is not bad at all. When you say this, it seems that Empress Jing Xiuyi cannot see the emperor."
"How can we have a good chat? Yingmei has a lot on her mind. This is not good and can easily make you sick." Ning Chongyi said calmly.
Beauty Ying hummed softly: "That's what the Queen said."
While the three of them were talking, they saw a eunuch coming. When he saw that it was the eunuch from Taiji Palace, he knew that the emperor was coming.
Sure enough, not long after, the emperor came together with Xue Baolin.
Everyone was paying tribute to the emperor, and Xue Baolin was busy giving gifts to everyone.
"The three beloved concubines are here. I am lucky. Originally I was only admiring flowers, but now I am also admiring beauties." Qi Yixiu said with a smile.
Shen Chuliu just smiled and said nothing.
Beauty Ying hurriedly said: "Isn't the Emperor still bringing beauty with him?"
"You can also appreciate beauties when you bring them with you. Have your concubines been here for a while?" Qi Yixiu looked at Shen Chuliu: "Can Jing Xiuyi still walk?"
"Your Majesty is so bad. If you can't walk, will your Majesty ask me to sit down?" Shen Chuliu smiled and took a step forward.
"If you can't walk, just endure it and look at the flowers with me." Qi Yixiu laughed at her.
So everyone followed the emperor to enjoy the flowers, but they only saw a little bit just now, so they could continue to see them.
The eunuch just continued to explain. This time he did not dare to be too flattering, but explained carefully.
"The green chrysanthemums are very beautiful, but the beauty is also extremely beautiful under the moon. I think these white flowers are quite artistic when you look at them at night." Ning Chongyi said with a smile.
Shen Chuliu looked around and saw that the chrysanthemums on a high platform were blooming beautifully and ethereal.
"What should I do? I also think this basin is beautiful." Shen Chuliu blinked innocently and looked at Qi Yixiu. Head back.
It’s the first time you steal something from someone so openly.
Qi Yixiu was amused: "Does it have to be this basin?"
"Concubine, you know, the emperor just can't bear it." Shen Chuliu snorted: "Concubine, just don't let me go."
"You, you! Give it to her! Someone will move her to Cuiyunxuan. Do you want more?" Qi Yixiu asked.
"Yes, my concubine Green Peacock wants two pots." Shen Chuliu said loudly.
Qi Yixiu himself didn't know which one was the least, so he waved his hand: "Move it, move it."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Shen Chuliu's voice suddenly became sweet.
"Empress Jing Xiuyi has the best taste." Xue Baolin said with a smile: "I see that this pink pearl is also very suitable for the empress. Your Majesty, look at it."
Qi Yixiu looked around and saw a pot of pink chrysanthemums, with fine petals blooming in layers. It was indeed beautiful.
They simply asked people to move them together.
Shen Chuliu smiled and didn't refute, so he accepted it.
Xue Baolin breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid of this person. Not to mention siding with him, at least she would not offend him and it was right to please him.
It is not shameful for a low-ranking concubine to please a high-ranking master.
"Oh, look at me, take it if you like it. Fortunately, there are a lot of white chrysanthemums. You guys should quickly choose a good one for Ning Chongyi." Shen Chuliu smiled: "It's all Ning Chongyi's, right? Just now Just tell me that the emperor is going north and make me jealous."
That’s it…
If you are so direct, how can you ask someone to pick you up
Ning Chongyi didn't expect her to say it so directly.
Qi Yixiu couldn't stop laughing, but didn't say anything. He knew in his heart that Ning Chongyi had just shown off and annoyed Jing Xiuyi.
This woman, who did not suffer any loss, immediately returned the favor.
Ning Chongyi was furious, but he could only smile: "It's not that important."
"The flowers don't matter, but the Emperor does. Sister, please don't blame me for being jealous. Thinking that the Emperor favors my sister makes me feel so uncomfortable." Shen Chuliu said deliberately.
Qi Yixiu put his hand on his mouth and coughed, hiding his smile. This woman...
"How could it be possible? The emperor is naturally partial to you, Jing Xiuyi." Ning Chongyi was really angry to death.
Qi Yixiu finally spoke: "Okay, let's enjoy the flowers."
He walked in front, leaving Ning Chongyi and Ying Meiren behind. Ying Meiren whispered: "Tsk, Ning Chongyi is really at a disadvantage."
After that, he went to catch up with the emperor.
Ning Chongyi was born in Qiandi and had always been favored.
But she has never been the emperor's favorite person. In the past, I couldn't compete with Yi Fei, and I couldn't compete with Yi Chongyuan.
Now, I can't compete with Jing Xiuyi, and I can't compete with Li Chongrong.
I don’t know who she will be unable to compete with in the future. After that, she will only get older and older...
And no heirs...
She felt uncomfortable in her heart, but her face was calm and calm. She knew that the emperor liked her like this.
So she can't change and must always be like this.
