Chapter 186 (1/2)

Meng Qianzhong's curious eyes turned to the tea cup. When he saw several petals floating on the water, he felt a little subtle. ”Peach blossom tea. It's still white peach blossom.”

”Yes.” Xiaoyi nodded. ”It's the imperial concubine who said that the emperor likes white peach blossoms best.”

Su Rushan was stunned and looked at Shang Meng Qianzhong with great interest. Xiao Yi winked again, but he should come down. ”Don't you like it? Try it.”

Meng Qianchong took a sip and said with appreciation, ”it's good. I wanted to drink flower tea in Zhongcui palace, but I didn't expect to drink it here.”

Su Rushuang's face softened a little. ”Xiao Yi is skillful. I think he won't lose to the people of Zhongcui palace.”

Meng Qianchong sniffed the faint peach blossom fragrance and asked, ”what was your original name?”

Xiao Yi saluted, ”the maidservant has no original name. Entering the palace is Xiao Yi's name.”

”Well, I thought you had a surname.” Meng Qianchong smiled, ”imperial concubine. The female officials around you are more interesting than you.”

”Do you think it's interesting?” Su Rushuang said indifferently, ”if you like it, take it to be a talented person and beauty. I'll just find someone else.”

Meng Qianchong glanced at her indifferent expression and smiled at Xiao Yi, ”your master doesn't seem to like you very much. I wish I would go to see you.”

Xiao Yi said with a smile, ”I dare not climb up.”

”Don't worry, although there are only a few female officials who have become concubines in ancient times, there are also some...” Meng Qianchong's voice became smaller and smaller, and he suddenly remembered the bright face in the peach blossom forest.

Su Rushan looked at his thoughtful expression and asked, ”what's the matter with you?”

”Oh,” Meng Qianzhong smiled easily, ”nothing. I think of some strange things.”

Su Rushuang looked at him suspiciously and said, ”are you having dinner in the palace tonight? Xiao Yi has learned some new skills in the imperial dining room recently. You can try it.”

”It seems that there are new dishes to eat in Huayang palace,” Meng Qianzhong looked at Xiao Yi approvingly. ”There is a divine man around you who can cook for the master.” he got up and clapped his hands. ”Well, I'll come over for dinner in the evening. Now I'll go back to the study to approve the folding.”

Su Rushuang looked at his leaving back, and his heart was always not the taste. Don't turn your face and go in a daze. Xiao Yi half knelt on the ground and said softly, ”madam, you won't blame the maidservant?”

Su Rushan forced out a smile, ”how could it be? It's also the intention of the palace to let the emperor accept you as a concubine. Just go. If you can really serve the emperor well, the palace will admire you. In the future, we will have another layer of protection.”

Xiao Yi showed a docile and clever expression, ”when I had dinner that night, my maid prepared some strong wine, and my mother...”

”The palace will give you plenty of time and opportunities, and will also win the title of a talented person for you,” Su Rushuang said indifferently. ”Go and prepare well. Put on the agate hairpin given to you by the palace and wear eye-catching clothes, so that the emperor can see you at a glance.”

Xiao Yi respectfully saluted, ”yes, I'll prepare now.”

Su Rushuang sat quietly at the table and raised her hand to open the teacup. Meng Qianchong drank all the petals in it, leaving only half of the orange tea. Also, the peach petals just picked are fresh and delicate. Meng Qianzhong doesn't like it. If they were put in the usual way, he would never allow any woman to approach the emperor, not to mention female officials and palace maids. However, the days passed without salt. He was not the imperial concubine who spoiled the crown six palaces for a long time. She didn't decide many things alone. There are more and more flowers in the palace, She was slowly withered by the cold wind.

Su Rushuang sighed softly. She didn't care about the children of imperial concubine Chen, and didn't want to make any traps to harm imperial concubine de. she just wanted to accompany Meng Qianchong to grow old slowly with the passage of time. It's good for him to come one day. If he doesn't come for several days, she's sad. Now she can only hope that Xiao Yi will hook him.

Zhuang Youyi strolls along the yuanyangpu with a variety of beautiful fish. There are many colorful fish at the bottom of the lake, arousing waves of water on the lake. For a moment, she was a child and threw a fan on the lake, causing the small fish to disperse in panic and stirring up a larger circle of ripples.

Lin Lang smiled and said, ”be careful, madam. You don't know water. Don't fall in.”

”No,” Zhuang Youyi looked at the little fish blankly. ”The palace is really boring. It's not like being in the house at all. I thought the little fish were freer than me, but they can only swim in the mandarin duck pool. I think what kind of freedom is there in the palace. I'm afraid even the emperor is trapped in the palace.”

Lin Lang comforted: ”don't be sad, madam. Since you are already in the palace, don't think about these things.”

Zhuang Youyi suddenly turned her face and her eyes were bright. ”I heard that Prince Chun's palace is here.”

Lin Lang covered her mouth in panic. ”Empress, this is the palace. Prince Chun is a traitor. His name is to be locked up for questioning.”

Zhuang Youyi gave her a white look. ”There are no others around here. What are you worried about?”

”The maidservant promised the general to take care of her mother. She had to worry,” Linlang thought, ”but Prince Chunqin's house is really close here.”

”This way?” Zhuang Youyi blinked. ”You mean Prince Chun is very close to my Penglai hall?”
