Autumn is coming to an end.

All the flowers in the imperial garden are withered, only the chrysanthemums stand proudly on the branches.

The chrysanthemums of various colors compete for splendor, creating an illusion of spring.

Today, His Majesty drove back to the palace, and Concubine Shu was very happy, when she heard that Su Jiu's little hoof had returned to the palace unharmed, she angrily crushed the lily petals in her hand.

"Your Majesty, don't get too angry. The slaves see that the chrysanthemums in the imperial garden are blooming just right, why don't you go and enjoy them?" It is an established fact that the nine princesses will return to the palace safely, and it is useless to get angry. Rong Nuo said consolingly .

Concubine Shu took the square handkerchief to clean her hands, thinking that His Majesty loves chrysanthemum appreciation the most, and maybe she could meet His Majesty, she made up her mind and took all the palace people out.

The sun is just right, and there is a touch of cinnamon in the air.

Concubine Shu felt bored after admiring it for a while. Seeing the gazebo not far ahead, she quickened her pace.

But when he got closer, he found that there were already people in the pavilion.

The woman was leaning on the railing, with her back to the crowd, throwing fish food into the thousand carp pond, her gestures were indescribably soft and elegant.

Beside the woman stood only a maidservant in a blue palace dress.

Since becoming a concubine, no one has dared to ignore her like this!

Concubine Shu winked at the maidservant beside her.

The servant girl understood immediately, stepped forward a few steps, and said with indescribable arrogance in her voice, "Who is that person in the gazebo? Why didn't you come over to salute when you saw Concubine Shu?"

The woman turned her head slowly when she heard the words.

When everyone saw the woman's face clearly, they all gasped, and then subconsciously looked at Concubine Shu who was pale.

Concubine Shu stared at the woman's face, her eyes widened suddenly.

I saw that the woman was wearing a light green long dress, which was as long as the floor, with light pink lotus flowers embroidered on the cuffs, her long black hair was tied up casually with a dark green headband, her elegant jade face was covered with light makeup, and her vermilion lips were a little red, making her look even more beautiful. flirtatious.

A pair of apricot eyes were clear, and they were a little surprised to see everyone, but it passed by in a flash.

What surprised everyone the most was not the woman's stunning beauty, but Concubine Shu's three-point similarity to her face.

Especially those almond eyes.

The people in the palace are all human beings, and they all know the background of Concubine Shu's maids. Now that I think about it, maybe it's because His Majesty couldn't ask for a genuine beauty, so he fell in love with Concubine Shu, who was three points similar to a woman, to comfort him.

Qing He frowned slightly, and yelled at the maid: "Presumptuous! This is Mrs. Zhen!"

hiss!

Everyone was shocked when they heard the words. Recently, it has been widely rumored in the palace that there is a lady named Zhen in the palace. Although she has no official status, His Majesty loves her very much.

Some people also said that this Mrs. Zhen was the woman trapped in the palace by His Majesty.

I didn't expect that Mrs. Zhen was so beautiful!

Concubine Shu looked at the face of the so-called Mrs. Zhen, her apricot eyes were full of resentment, she snorted coldly and said: "What Mrs. Zhen?! This palace has never heard of it, she is just serving His Majesty with no name and no distinction." It’s all just a lowly maidservant, why don’t you kneel down when you see me?”

The Empress Dowager came out of the palace three years ago to pay respects to the Buddha. The first empress died, and the eldest Concubine Lan spent all her days wielding knives and guns in her own palace, completely ignoring the affairs of the harem.

In terms of rank, she can be said to be the only one in the harem.

"Come here! Go and invite Mrs. Zhen over here. I have to teach you what rules are! What is decency!" Concubine Shu really wanted to scratch Zhen Rao's face, and then gouge out her eyes .

In the harem, with such a face, only she is enough!

Qing He turned cold and stood in front of Zhen Rao.

"You dare!"

The little eunuch who stepped forward was a little hesitant.

Seeing this, Concubine Shu secretly cursed a trash, "Bring this bitch to me, I will reward you a lot!"

The little eunuchs stopped hesitating and walked towards the two people in the gazebo.

Just when the little eunuch's hand was about to touch the hem of Zhen Rao's clothes, he saw a flash of cold light.

Immediately afterwards, hog-killing howls resounded through the imperial garden.

A woman in black suddenly appeared, holding a silver moon scimitar, looked coldly at Concubine Shu and the others, turned around, and disappeared again.

If it wasn't for the little eunuch's broken little finger and the ear-piercing wailing, everyone would have doubted whether she had appeared.

Concubine Shu's face turned pale immediately, her expression was distorted by jealousy, Her Majesty even sent secret guards to guard this bitch!

"Don't be complacent, one day His Majesty will get tired of you!"

Putting down the harsh words, Concubine Shu no longer had the desire to admire the chrysanthemum, and left with all the palace servants in despair.

Zhen Rao glanced lightly at Concubine Shu's leaving back, put the silver needle into her cuff with a calm expression, suppressed the coldness in her eyes, and returned to her gentle and watery appearance.

The slender fingertips casually picked up the fish food and threw it into the pond.

Seeing this, Qing He said: "Your servant heard that the Ninth Princess is back today."

Zhen Rao paused while feeding the fish, "Really?"

"Slaves dare not lie to the empress."

Zhen Rao let go of the fish food in her hand and stood up with a smile on her face.

"Then I'll go back and make lotus flower cakes."

Qing He looked at her mother's brisk pace, the corners of her mouth also rose, and she followed quickly.

**

With the experience of drilling dog holes a few times before, the two villains are already familiar with the road.

Dodge patrolling guards.

Su Jingqin was still wearing the green bamboo palace attire.

In less than half an hour, they arrived at the corner of the palace.

The small table for the stall was still propped tremblingly in the corner.

Since Su Jiu went hunting this time and encountered the incident in Bianzhou, the palace people couldn't wait for the villain, and gradually fewer came.

At this time, there was only a young lady in a pink palace dress in the corner, wiping the dust that fell on the table.

"Sister Baiyun~"

The voice of the little milk suddenly sounded, and Bai Yun's body froze for a moment, her eyes burst into surprise, and she hurriedly turned around, "Little Heavenly Master! You are finally here? Everyone misses you."

The villain's eyebrows were curved, and he showed a prickly smile, "I miss my sisters too!"

Bai Yun looked the little man up and down, saw that she was not thin, but seemed to be a bit fatter, so she breathed a sigh of relief, took out a pastry wrapped in a silk handkerchief from her bosom, and handed it to the little man and Su Jingqin.

"Little Tianshi and Qiqi, please try it, it's delicious!"

Different from the rough cakes before, this time the cakes given by Bai Yun looked very delicate, and also exuded a strong milky aroma.

Obviously it is eaten by the nobles and ladies.

The villain's eyes lit up, he picked up a piece and put it in his mouth, and asked strangely: "Sister Baiyun, why didn't sister Yunxiang come today? And this pastry, which lady in the palace gave it to you?"

Bai Yun squatted in front of the villain, her expression darkened after hearing this.

"Yunxiang...she has something to do, so she may not have much time to come here in the future."

"Huh? Sister Yunxiang, what happened to her?"

The villain suddenly felt that the cakes were not fragrant anymore, so he asked worriedly.

Bai Yun squeezed out a smile.

"Don't worry, little celestial master, Yun Xiang is fine, she just recently got the attention of a nobleman and was transferred to work in front of the nobleman."
