Everyone followed the prestige and saw that where Wuya Qingdai passed by, there were two strings of lotus imprints, which opened among the beautiful women and ended at Wuya Qingdai's feet.

Hongli pointed to the lotus pattern on the carpet, "What's wrong with your feet?"

Wuya Qingdai was ecstatic in her heart, he really noticed that even though he tried his best to suppress it, the expression of excitement still showed on his face, and even his voice trembled with joy, "Return to the emperor, this lady is called step by step Shenglian."

"Really?" Hongli's grip on Xu Nian's wrist increased slightly, and after a while, he touched it up and down lovingly. He looked at Wu Yaqingdai and sneered, "Take off her shoes, I'll take a look!"

"Hey!" Li Yu stepped forward immediately, and the two young eunuchs outside the hall also timely held Wuya Qingdai's arms so that she could not resist.

All this happened so suddenly, before the smile on Wuya Qingdai's face fell, Li Yu had already taken off the embroidered shoe on her right foot, exposed the sole, and held it in front of the imperial court.

Hongli just glanced at it, then sneered, "It turned out that the lotus pattern was carved on the sole of the shoe."

Concubine Ning looked at Wuya Qingdai's elegant face and couldn't help being jealous. "It's also filled with fine powder on the sole, no wonder it leaves a mark, it's a waste of a lot of thought!"

Wu Yaqingdai heard Concubine Ning's praise, and wanted to give in with a smile, but was thrown into the mud by Hongli's words from the cloud, and he sternly shouted: "Pull it out!"

Wu Yaqingdai just came back to her senses at this moment, and she begged Hongli with a terrified expression, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, my servant just wants to win the first prize, please forgive me! Empress, save my daughter! Save my daughter !"

Gao Ningxin looked at Xu Nian with a happy face, thinking a lot in her heart: Obviously the emperor is not happy, what would this virtuous and generous 'good queen' say?

Xu Nian didn't intercede for her. This woman with ambition written all over her face has never paid attention to Xu Nian as the queen since she entered the palace. Now that she was in trouble, she remembered Xu Nian. Xu Nian is the queen. , not a nanny. "There is no rule without rules. There is nothing wrong with a beautiful woman trying to get the top spot, but you shouldn't imitate Pan Yunu's posture of growing lotus every step of the way. Pan Yunu is a demon concubine, and Xiao Baojuan is a fool. You If you learn from her now, where will you put the emperor?"

"Hmph! I have already issued a decree to prohibit the foot binding of the beautiful girls of the Han army flag. Today's selection, there are more than one or two people who have their feet bound!" Hongli's expression was cold, and his tone was even colder. "Not only the Han army flag is like this, but even Wu Ya I really don't know what it means to learn such extravagant and decadent atmosphere! What the empress said is that Pan Yunu is a demon concubine, and Xiao Baojuan is a foolish emperor. Are you imitating her today to bring chaos to the court! A woman like this enters the palace, she must be It will cause trouble, and I will not only expel her from the palace, but also punish her father for breaking the law, so as to serve as an example to others!"

"Pull it down!" Li Yu waved his hand to the little eunuch outside the hall.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, my servant is wrong, Your Majesty, please forgive me! It's that lowly maid who harmed my courtier, it's all that lowly maid..." Seeing Wu Yaqingdai being dragged out like being dragged by an animal, she struggled desperately Crying, but to no avail.

The departure of Wuya Qingdai did not leave a trace of disturbance.

Hongli opened the folding fan and leaned slightly in the direction of Xu Nian. A gust of cool wind hit him. Xu Nian smiled at him and asked in a low voice, "Isn't the emperor satisfied after seeing so much?"

"With the queen sitting beside me, I see that all the beautiful women are young, not as many as the queen!" Hongli's mouth was really wet.

"So you want the concubine to avoid it?" Xu Nian asked deliberately.

"Zhi narrow!" Hongli looked at the beautiful girls outside the hall, there was still a big wave of Wu Yangyang, he would be tired just complaining, "Forget it, I still have things to do in the previous court, the queen watched the selection of two Just one."

"Choose just two? Wouldn't it be too few?" Xu Nian raised his index finger and clasped his palm, but Hongli held it tightly.

"Hey, don't make trouble! You don't have to keep any of them. Anyway, there are so many children of the right age in the clan waiting to be married. I will leave them all to you. You are the queen, and my harem will be managed by you. I will definitely give it to you." Don't worry." After saying that, Hongli got up and left.

Xu Nian didn't bother to choose carefully here, so he picked two well-behaved girls from good family backgrounds, and the rest put up signs to give flowers.

When Gao Ningxin saw that the emperor had left, she really wanted to leave, but the queen hadn't left yet, so how could she leave early? She and the queen hated each other, but whoever made the queen high, if she really wanted to punish her, She can only admit it.

A talent show came and ended in such a hurry, without causing any disturbance to the harem.

In the inner hall of Changchun Palace, a sandalwood table and an auspicious animal incense burner are curling up with green smoke. The faint fragrance permeates the room, making people feel relaxed.

"Mingyu, when Wuya Qingdai was taken out today, she kept yelling that someone was harming her, you go and find out what happened?" Xu Nian rubbed the balm on her hands carefully, and Ruyu was undressing her hair.

"Your Majesty, this servant has already inquired clearly." Ruyu was really meticulous in her work, and she had already inquired about it in advance.Xu Nian may or may not ask about this matter, it is meaningful if she asks, and her work is useless if she does not ask.Seeing the big from the small shows that Ruyu really cares about her very much.

"I should change your name to Ruyi. With you, I am so happy!" Xu Nian praised her with a smile.

Several maids in the hall also covered their lips and snickered when they heard this.

"Niang Niang!" Ruyu shouted coquettishly, showing the attitude of a little girl, but the movements of her hands were still gentle.

"Okay, let's stop teasing you, let's talk about it?"

"Today, when all the beautiful ladies were waiting for the imperial election in the imperial garden, a group of maids who had just entered the palace happened to pass by. A court lady named Ji Xiang was pushed by the maid next to her, and the bucket she was carrying fell directly to the ground. , the water splashed onto Wu Yaxiu's skirt, Wu Yaxiu was furious, she slapped Ji Xiang, and asked her to leave her hands to compensate her, but was stopped by a maid named Wei Yingluo."

"Oh?" Xu Nian was interested, how does a court lady calm the anger of a beautiful lady.

"Wei Yingluo took out the incense powder from her waist, mixed some vermilion sand powder, and printed these on the soles of Wu Yaxiu's shoes, saying that lotuses grow every step of the way as she walks, which is an excellent idea." Ruyu replied while helping Xu Nian comb her hair.

Hearing the name Wei Yingluo, Xu Nian knew who it was, but she did not intend to transfer Wei Yingluo to the Changchun Palace. Looking at Fucha Rongyin's memory, it is not difficult to find that although Wei Yingluo treated Fucha Rongyin very She is loyal, but she is a troublesome person, constantly causing trouble.

Judging from Xu Nian's years of experience, she felt that this Wei Yingluo should be the heroine of this world. Who would the hero be?Xu Nian seemed to think of something suddenly, and asked, "You said that maid's surname is Wei?"

"Yes, it's Wei Yingluo."

"It turned out to be her!" Xu Nian remembered that there was a concubine Ling in Qianlong's harem. Although this is the world of novels, some major settings are still consistent. Wei Jia's was the winner in life who had the last laugh. He became a queen himself, and his son inherited the throne.

"My lady, what did you say?" Xu Nian whispered to himself, but Ruyu didn't hear clearly.

"It's fine, you don't need to comb, you should go to rest early, thanks for your hard work." Xu Nian patted Ruyu's hand with a smile.

"Your Majesty beat the slaves, the master has a gentle temper and doesn't beat the palace servants, it's a blessing for the slaves to serve the master, it's not hard work at all." Ruyu covered Xu Nian with a quilt before leaving.

Xu Nian was lying on the soft Babu bed, and the curtains were lowered layer by layer, like barriers protecting her, giving her a sense of security and privacy.

Thinking about something in my heart, I slowly fell asleep.

Wei Yingluo Xu Nian didn't intend to take care of it, she only promised Fucha Rongyin to take good care of Yong Lian and Yong Cong, for a court lady, she didn't have this obligation, and she didn't want to spend such effort, and it was obvious that Wei Yingluo was a vengeful The hostility on her body is too heavy, she doesn't have the heart to rape her, if she has this time, let's hurry up and create Yong Cong.

The sun is scorching hot, Xu Nian has no appetite recently, and she is too lazy to move. She felt her pulse for herself, and she should be pregnant. It's only two months old, and she hasn't settled down yet, so she didn't say anything.

"Your Majesty, Madam Yipin is begging to see her. The maidservant sees that she is sweating profusely, and seems very anxious." Mingyu entered the palace and hurriedly reported.

Because Xu Nian has been in a bad mood recently, he specially told the palace servants not to disturb her if there is nothing to do, and Mingyu can come to report, it seems that Concubine Yi is really in trouble.

"Let her come in." Ruyu supported Xu Nian and asked her to get up slowly. Xu Nian hadn't changed her clothes this month, so Ruyu also guessed that she was probably pregnant, so she served her more carefully and appropriately.

"Empress, my concubine, I beg you to save nobleman Yu! Save nobleman Yu..." When Yipin saw Xu Nian, she knelt down and begged repeatedly.

"What happened to Mr. Yugui? Why are you so panicked?" Xu Nian asked while sitting on the carved wooden chair.

"Empress, Mrs. Yugui, she is pregnant with a dragon heir, but the month is too young, and she has not had time to report it in the future. She only said that she has a cough and is recuperating in the Yonghe Palace. This matter was known by Concubine Ning, and she brought it with her just now. The imperial doctor went to Yugui's Yonghe Palace, the concubine was afraid that Concubine Ning would be harmful to Yugui! I beg the empress to save Yugui? Please?" Yibi said, kowtowing to Xu Nian .

"Concubine Yi, be careful! There is no evidence, so don't talk nonsense. You know that if you slander Concubine Ning, once she catches you, even this palace will not be able to help you. You are also an old man in this palace. What can you say? , What can’t be said, I advise you to think twice before speaking.” Xu Nian walked out while supporting Ruyu’s hand, “Follow me.”

"Thank you for your teaching, empress!" Yipin also came back to her senses at this moment, telling herself repeatedly in her heart that she must be cautious in her words and deeds in the future.

"The Empress is here!"

"Empress Jin'an!" Concubine Ning was sitting at the top, she got up immediately when she saw Xu Nian, and bowed to her politely, it seems that the punishment for copying the palace rules still has a certain effect.

"Concubine Ning is so majestic!" Xu Nian didn't cry out, some concoction was spilled on the carpet, and looked at the imperial physician Liu and the court ladies who rolled into a ball next to him, Mrs. Yu was still kneeling and escorted by two of Concubine Ning's maids On the ground, seeing Xu Nian, she was sobbing and crying, so pitiful.

Xu Nian walked up to the front and sat down, and then said calmly, "What is Concubine Ning doing?"

"Mr. Yugui is ill, and my concubine specially invited the imperial physician to treat her." Concubine Ning said evasively.

"Get up, sit down and talk." Xu Nian looked at the imperial physician kneeling beside him and asked, "Emperor Liu, what did you give Yugui to drink?"

"I'm asking you something. Why are you looking at Concubine Ning? Is this question difficult to answer?"

Gao Ningxin glared at Imperial Physician Liu, "The empress asked you something, you just answer it truthfully."

"Reporting to the empress, I checked Yugui's pulse, and found that her pulse is deep and stringy on the left, and smooth and strong on the right. In addition, the liver yang is hot, and the lungs are full of phlegm. She is suffering from a cough." Imperial Physician Liu is very old. His white beard made him look very reliable, "In order to relieve the lung heat for the nobleman, I specially prescribed a prescription for clearing away heat and benefiting the lungs, and supplemented it with loquat extract for conditioning."

"You're talking nonsense! Ah Yan is obviously..."
