"Then what should we do now? You have to find a way?" Aunt Qing said.
Pan'er smiled and patted her hand: "No hurry, the days are still long."
Aunt Qing couldn't help but feel a little dejected: "Your concentration is too good. Look at the one opposite, do you really want her to compete?"
Even Aunt Qing, who was used to seeing all kinds of scenes, felt a little irritable after staying in this yard for a long time.
In fact, this is exactly what the princess wants to see. Whether the women in the palace are beautiful or unknown, there are not many simple characters. They are best at infiltrating silently, taking advantage of the situation, exalting the high and stepping down the low, with so many methods that it is surprising how people can have so many tricks.
Look, the crown princess doesn't have to do anything, she just makes both sides of the east and west worry about it, and if she holds one and overwhelms the other, it won't be a life-and-death fight in the future.
Who will be cheaper then? Naturally cheap princess.
"Auntie, you forgot to shoot the first bird? Besides, it is still unknown whether she can be favored under the current situation. And the prince is a man who pays attention to rules. I am new here, and there is no love between the two. Do you think the prince will do it for you?" A newcomer refuted the face of the Crown Princess? Besides, even if Xiao Dezi is well-informed, he can't be the master of letting the Crown Prince come to my house, and we can't go ahead to pull people, so let's wait until the time comes. Let's see when I go to bed."
Aunt Qing thought about it, and felt that there was some truth in what she said, so she had to do so.
At the beginning of the Chinese lanterns, a dazzling glazed lantern lit up in front of the small courtyard.
The style of the octagonal palace lantern is painted with a dragon and a phoenix showing good fortune, and a red wreath is adorned under it. It is festive no matter how you look at it.
Yuping had found an excuse to go out and look at it several times, this lamp was hung for their master.
And starting from today's daytime, the atmosphere in the East Wing and West Wing is quite weird. The people in the West Wing are nervous, for fear that the master will be annoyed, but they are secretly angry that the other side took the lead.
Especially with the coming out of bedtime, I am afraid that everyone in the East Palace knows that Su Fengyi is neither favored by the prince nor the concubine.
On the other side of the dining room, more and more money is stuffed day by day, so be careful if you don't talk about it, and you will get supercilious. Usually when the slaves go out, they are also unhappy everywhere.
When the hatchback is combined, can you see the opposite side pleasing to the eye
As for the East Chamber, today they are particularly in high spirits, and the voices of the servants are much louder. Especially when the evening was approaching, the east chamber called for water to take a bath, and the servants came in and out to deliver water and pour water, not to mention how dazzling.
"It's better to let her fail!" Cattail cursed in a low voice.
"Okay, what a big deal." Pan'er said with a smile.
Nothing to do in the afternoon, Pan Er asked someone to prepare paper, planning to make a pair of Shuanglu.
The first-class skinny horse, playing chess and calligraphy, wiping dominoes to play Shuanglu, and the housekeeper are all proficient in calculating accounts. Apart from not having a pair of three-inch golden lotus, Pan'er can also be regarded as a first-class skinny horse, so she plays Shuanglu very well.
However, there is Aunt Qing, from whom Pan'er was taught. If the apprentice can beat the master, then the master should go home and learn the art again. But playing Shuanglu pays attention to luck, and the luck in the game is not bad. In the afternoon, there will be losses and wins, and more losses will be less.
Soon it was getting dark, and Pan'er ate some supper casually, and continued to play Shuanglu.
She didn't play, and let Cattail Qingdai and Baizhu Baizhi play, while Xiaotianzi and Xiaodezi were on the sidelines to add to the fun. Everyone in the room, from the master to the servants, was having fun. It was also intended to have fun for Pan'er, lest she would get angry secretly, Xiao Dezi and Xiao Tianzi's various funny and funny things made the room full of laughter.
But this laughter is seen by the opposite person, but it is self-entertainment under embarrassment.
As the time got later and later, the servants couldn't sit still, their faces were covered with Shuanglu, but their eyes kept looking out of the window. Xiao Tianzi found an excuse to go out for a while, and when he came back, he looked normal and continued to fight Shuanglu.
Seeing this, everyone knew that the crown prince hadn't come yet.
Pan'er sighed secretly, but pretended not to know.
After a while, Xiao Dezi also found an excuse to go out. He went out for a long time and came back after a long time. With a smile on his face, he said as soon as he walked in: "The prince was intercepted by Hu Liangdi's envoys."
Everyone was puzzled, and Xiao Dezi didn't let it go.
It turned out that the three princesses had been ill in the past few days, and nowadays young children are extremely prone to die young, even if they are as rich as a palace, there are not a few children who cannot support them.
The concubine had already helped to call the imperial doctor, but this evening the three princes had a high fever again, Hu Liangdi was panicked, just when she heard that the prince had entered the backyard, she ordered someone to intercept the prince.
At this point, the crown prince was called to see his daughter, thinking that he would not go to Zhao Xiyue's place tonight, no wonder Xiao Dezi was so happy.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they got the news, and naturally they didn't want to fight Shuanglu anymore.
Seeing that it was getting late, Cattail asked in a low voice: "Master, why don't I wait for you to rest?"
Pan'er glanced at them and nodded.
A night without dreams.
The next day I went to pay my respects, but when Pan'er went out, she didn't see any movement on the opposite side. She waited until she arrived at Jide Hall and stood outside for a while before Zhao Xiyue came late.
She put on powder on her face, but even so, she couldn't hide the bruises under her eyes, and she looked very haggard.
Xu Liangyuan, who had just arrived, laughed and said, "My sister didn't sleep well last night? I heard that the prince was called away by Sister Hu last night. Don't be angry, Sister Hu has always been domineering, and I was not a big sister before." Never seen such a thing.”
Zhao Xiyue's face darkened, a trace of anger flashed in her eyes, and she didn't speak.
Fu Dong came out from inside and called everyone in.
According to the practice of the Eastern Palace, greetings in the morning are usually at 2:00 a.m., because after receiving their greetings, the Crown Princess has to go to greet the Queen, and occasionally even the Queen Mother, so it is not too late, and there are occasional changes. Will send someone else to pass on the message.
After entering, the princess was sitting on the first seat. She was very neatly dressed, her hair full of jewels and even gorgeous, as if she planned to go to Kunning Palace later.
After paying their respects one by one, the Crown Princess offered her a seat and tea.
As usual, it's incense sticks.
Xiangpian is actually the so-called scented tea. This kind of camellia is full of fragrance and is especially loved by women. Today is the lotus-scented incense slice, which has a faint fragrance.
"The third princess has been in a bad situation for the past few days. I invited the imperial physician last night. I also waived Hu Liangdi's greetings for the past few days and asked her to take good care of the third princess. As for Zhao Fengyi, sisters should get along in harmony and don't There is resentment in my heart."
How could there be no resentment in my heart
But Zhao Xiyue still pinched the handkerchief, and said with a smile: "I can't do it myself."
"I got up late last night because of the matter of the three princesses. I have to go to Kunning Palace to greet my mother. You sit down for a while and drink tea before leaving. This is a new tribute this year. The Ministry of Internal Affairs knows that I like it. It's specially brought here, you guys have a taste." After finishing speaking, the princess left, and many people followed her, leaving only two young maids in the hall to wait.
The new tea was rewarded by the Crown Princess, so I had to drink more, so as not to lose face to the Crown Princess.
A few people sat there drinking tea without speaking, but Pan'er could feel the meaningful eyes of others looking at Zhao Xiyue, so she couldn't help shaking her head secretly.
After sitting for a while, Xu Liangyuan stood up and left.
She left, and the others followed suit.
Pan'er wanted to stagger away from Zhao Xiyue, but everyone else left, and Zhao Xiyue remained still. Seeing this, she could only stand up and walk out, but just as she got to the door, she heard movement behind her.
Pan'er walked back with Bai Shu buried in her head, when there was a rush of footsteps behind her.
"You can't get anywhere!"
Pan'er looked at Zhao Xiyue's back, feeling like someone was in trouble at home.
For a whole day, there was no movement in the opposite east chamber, eunuchs and court ladies came in and out lightly. The master is not satisfied, in fact, it can be seen from the waiters around him.
On the contrary, the West Wing was much more reckless, Xiaotianzi and Xiaodezi talked very loudly outside, Cattail and Qingdai were smiling when they came in and out, and they didn't dislike that Nanny Li for teasing others.
Pan'er didn't like this a bit.
In the Forbidden City in her previous life, she saw a lot of exaggeration and conspiracies. She claimed that she was not a good person, but she never did things that would add insult to injury.
I called everyone in and told them to restrain themselves.
"Don't be happy with things, don't be sad with yourself, don't forget your form when you are proud, and don't forget your form when you are frustrated. What's more, I am not proud now. I don't care what others say, but you must remember these words with me. "
Bai Shu glanced at Pan'er, and Bai Zhi said yes, but Xiao Dezi talked a lot, and he dared not do it again after saying it again and again. When they went out again, everyone restrained a lot.
As the evening approached, the east wing was low and low, and someone still fetched water to bathe Zhao Xiyue. Zhao mama also came out, she was pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, she scolded several servants bloody.
Night fell.
Knowing that the crown prince will probably not come tonight, both the master and the servants in the West Wing are much more comfortable. On the contrary, Cattail went out to look at the movement on the other side, and came back and said that Zhao Fengyi might not be able to sleep well tonight.
Pan'er looked at her helplessly, but had nothing to say. In the morning, Zhao Xiyue protested against her. Others didn't know but the cattails were there at the time, and the girl was holding her breath. If she didn't let her ridicule her, she probably would feel uncomfortable.
"Okay, look at what other people are doing, it's getting late, you ask someone to prepare water for me to take a bath, rest early today, and go to pay my respects early tomorrow morning."
Cattail smiled mischievously at Pan'er, and went down under the command.
Not long after, the hot water was brought up, Pan Er took the cattails to the bathroom, and was undressing when she heard a commotion outside.
There was a lot of movement, vaguely mixed with Xiao Dezi's words, "Your Highness Wan'an".
Pan'er went out in a hurry. As soon as he walked out of the room, he saw the prince stepping in.
Today the prince is wearing a long robe in the color of rain and sunshine, which makes his face even more elegant. He is tall and straight, his back is always straight, and his manners are excellent, giving him a sense of elegance and grace.
Seeing Pan'er's appearance, the prince frowned indistinctly.
Pan'er subconsciously touched the front of the skirt, only to find that the cattails were changing her clothes just now, and the outer shirt was untied, and she came out in such a disheveled way.
"Your Highness made amends. I just planned to take a bath in it, so I was in a hurry." After speaking, she blushed, nervous and embarrassed.
Yes, Pan'er was nervous.
God knows why she was nervous when facing the prince. It seems that from the previous life to the present, and in this environment, her substitution was completely wrong.
What she replaced was not Emperor Jianping with gray temples and grim face, nor was she the imperial concubine who had been pampered and spoiled by him for many years, but she was Su Fengyi who had just entered the East Palace, he was the young and handsome prince.
In the previous life, when she first entered the East Palace, the nervousness she felt when facing the prince seemed to descend on her all at once. Fortunately, there was a cattail next to her, and the cattail poked her from behind, and immediately brought the pan back to reality.
"Your Highness, please sit down, Cattail and Qingdai will serve you tea soon."
Pan'er hurried over and asked the prince to sit down on the kang.
In order to hide her confusion, she stared at Cattail Qingdai serving tea, until she took the tea from Qingdai and put it on the kang table, finally she calmed down a little.
"Why did Your Highness come here today..."
As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Pan'er realized that she had said the wrong thing. Are these words driving the prince away? She wished she could hit herself, and hurriedly said: "I don't mean that, I mean... tonight should be Zhao Fengyi's bedtime..."
Could it be that the prince went to the wrong door
