Rong Ting's voice couldn't be lighter.

If the air tone was a little smaller, even Huai Qing, who was closest to him, would not be able to hear it.

With an annoyed look on his face, Mr. Yan turned back from the north window.

Huai Qing heard Rong Ting say, "I didn't hear what you said just now."

Huai Qing: "?"

You answered all the answers and changed the call, didn't you hear?

"Mr.'s study is a clean place. If there is an important matter, I will talk about it when I go out."

Rong Ting said softly, although Huai Qing couldn't figure it out, but answered "yes".

Although Yan Nanxun has many eccentric temperaments, except for schoolwork, he is extremely tolerant to students, and waved his sleeves and said, "No, since it is an important matter, I will talk about it here."

He brushed his sleeves and sat back in the chair, took a sip of tea, and cleared his throat.

Just now, he only looked down at the window, what Huaiqing and Rong Ting were talking about, but he didn't hear them clearly, he didn't have eyes behind them, and he didn't even see them talking.

Yan Nanxun put down the tea cup and looked at Huaiqing, "What's the matter?"

Rong Ting also raised his eyes and looked at Huai Qing.

With an expression similar to Yan Nanxun's, waiting to hear.

Only Qing Lingling's eyes seemed to contain some kind of hint.

Huai Qing: "..."

If it wasn't for Rong Ting's answer to him just now, he would have thought that Rong Ting didn't hear it.

Instead, he couldn't figure it out.

But although he couldn't figure it out, he repeated the last sentence he said just now, "His Royal Highness, you are the only one in the academy, and you have not received an invitation from Ning An Bo's house."

As if Rong Ting knew about this for the first time, a faint look of sadness appeared on his face.

Yan Nanxun frowned, "What's going on?"

He looked at his invitation on the table.

He will definitely go to the birthday banquet, with two gifts.

One is for the old lady who has passed her birthday, and the other is a gift for Jiang Xingzhou to return to Beijing.

He thought about the congratulations for Jiang Xingzhou very early.

A fine wolf pen in small script with flower and bird patterns, a unique wolf pen in the world.

He has treasured it for a long time, and it was just right for Jiang Xingzhou

It just satirizes that he has a good pen and can't make good calligraphy or painting.

very happy.

Rong Ting lowered his head, with confusion in his eyes, "Jiang Fourth Master has never liked me very much."

Huai Qing behind her is a little strange.

If the Ninth Highness wants to show that his relationship with the Jiang family is no trivial matter, shouldn't he show others that his relationship with the Jiang family is good?

Yan Nanxun also found it strange, "It was Jiang Xingzhou who wrote the recommendation letter to recommend you to me, it shouldn't be..."

"However." He frowned as if remembering something, "He didn't praise you much in the letter."

"The fourth master has always thought that I am not good."

"What's wrong with my disciple?" As Jiang Xingzhou's friend, Yan Nanxun instinctively wanted to raise a bar with Jiang Siye, "Jiang Laosi is full of nonsense."

Rong Ting lowered his eyebrows, "It should be the disciple who did something wrong that made the fourth master dissatisfied with me."

Take all the faults on yourself.

The sadness in his eyes could not be hidden, and his thoughts could be seen at a glance on his face.

Be damned good.

Yan Nanxun glanced at him, "Want to go?"

Rong Ting seemed to want to speak but didn't dare to speak, with an embarrassed expression on his face.

Yan Nanxun couldn't help but feel a little graceful.

The first time he taught such a young student, he was a little tolerant without realizing it. He thought that it was the appearance of him teaching Yu Yinxue that scared Rong Ting, and he didn't dare to say it if he wanted to go.

It's just that the child is innocent, and his thoughts are written on his face, so that others can see through it at a glance.

Unconsciously pity in my heart.

"Since you are already familiar with the history books that you will learn in this half month, it is not a bad idea to go to the birthday banquet."

"But the disciple doesn't have an invitation. Every time the Fourth Master Jiang sees me, he will definitely be unhappy. I rashly went..." Rong Ting acted obediently, sensible, and understanding, "The disciple doesn't want to make the Fourth Master unhappy."

Can you make Jiang Xingzhou unhappy?

Yan Nanxun blurted out subconsciously, "Why don't you mess with it?"

Yan Nanxun had an idea and clapped the table and said, "On the day of the birthday banquet, I will take you in. Give Jiang Lao Si some gifts."

He smiled, as if he was very satisfied with this decision.

Rong Ting looked stunned, "Sir, this is not good..."

"You're just too sensible."

Yan Nanxun was afraid that he would not be willing to go, so he issued a death order, "No matter what, on the day of the birthday banquet, you must go with the teacher."

...

Huai Qing finally scratched his head.

Yan Nanxun and Jiang Xingzhou's apparent discord is a well-known thing in Jinling.

This is what the Ninth Highness uses...

Yan Nanxun has such a big face, no one dares to stop the guests he brings.

Look at Rong Ting again.

His Highness Ninth had a worried look in his eyes.

But he nodded slowly, "Everything is according to Mr.

It seems that the teacher's order is difficult to violate, and it has to be obeyed, forced to be helpless.

Seriously, out of the silt and not stained.

...

Jiang Rao was called into the palace by Concubine Yun Gui today, and will accompany her to feed the fish by the pond for a while.

"Your grandmother's birthday, I

It is inconvenient to leave the palace. I will give you the birthday gift in a while, and when it is down, you can help me give it to your grandmother to celebrate the birthday. "

Concubine Yun Gui stood leisurely leaning against the railing by the pond, tossing fish food, teasing the red and green carps in the pond, and said, "It's a fringed tassel hairpin, worn by a little girl of thirteen or fourteen years old. It looks the best."

"Thirteen or fourteen...my grandmother..."

"I know it's your grandmother's birthday." Concubine Yun raised her eyebrows lazily, "But this gift I gave, apparently for her, is actually for you."

"Your grandmother is a stepmother, and she doesn't favor your family, so why should I give her something useful. Sending a pair of fringed hairpins to her, doing all the superficial skills in front of outsiders, has already given her a great deal of face. ."

Concubine Yun Gui snorted, "If she doesn't understand what I mean, she won't give you this hairpin as a reward, but keep it for herself, or reward someone else. In the future, I will even pay attention to this superficial skill. It doesn't give her any face."

"Speaking of which, the old man asked his cousin to take charge of the central feeder, so the woman in the big room can't be mad?"

Concubine Yun Gui frowned and smiled, "I heard that the woman is now distributing rice in the temple in the mountain for disaster relief, right? She lives as hard as her aunt who has lost her hair. If it weren't for me staying in the palace now, it would be difficult to leave the palace, I really want to take advantage of it. This opportunity to go to the temple to offer incense and watch the liveliness."

"My aunt just likes to watch the fun."

Concubine Yun Gui squinted at her, "It's lively, don't watch it for nothing. Although I can't get out of the palace, you and your mother can always go and have a look, right?"

"I can't go." Jiang Rao shook his head.

Not to mention that her mother is no better than her aunt, there is a kind of pampering that ignores the consequences and only cares about her own happiness.

"The central feeder suddenly fell into my mother's hand. She has been so busy this month that her feet have not touched the ground." Jiang Rao threw away the fish food in her hand, and then took new ones from the little palace maid, "I have a birthday banquet. In exchange for helping her, how can I have the time to go to the temple and offer incense."

"Knowing to help your mother, you are a good one." Yun Guifei smiled and glanced at Jiang Rao, the more she looked, the more happy she became, "I don't know, in the end, Ning'an Bo's house will fall on your father's head. Sometimes my cousin is busy."

"My dad definitely doesn't want to."

Concubine Yun Gui was about to say something when a group of people walked over to the pond.

It was Empress Jiahe, and the maids came here, surrounded by a circle.

She said eloquently, "Concubine Yun Gui is very leisurely and enjoys the fish here."

Concubine Yun Gui never liked to give face to Empress Jiahe, her face collapsed, she reluctantly pulled Jiang Rao, and bowed to Empress Jiahe according to the palace rules.

Jiang Rao was in the palace several times before

Only in the palace banquet, saw Empress Jiahe from a distance, and today was the first time was so close to her.

Seeing this woman with a foolish mouth and a heart, smiling like a spring breeze in front of her, she just panicked. Thinking of the viciousness of this woman's methods and the hardships that Rong Ting had endured, she gasped inexplicably.

Empress Jiahe looked at Jiang Rao for a long time, and then slowly opened her mouth, "Concubine Yun, this is your little niece, right? Look at this exquisite figure, she is really a beautiful person."

There is some pantothenic acid in my heart.

They are all reincarnations. Why are some people born so much more outstanding than others?

Qin Yun is, and so is her niece.

A good color to confuse people.

When the time comes, it will be easy to marry into a good family, and it will become a help for the Qin and Jiang families.

"Is this the fourth girl Jiang from Ning'an's House?" she asked again.

Concubine Yun Gui looked at Empress Jiahe vigilantly, feeling that she seemed to have something to say, and gently pulled Jiang Rao behind her, "Yes."

"As expected, although the little girl has a good figure, she can look at her demeanor... I know that I haven't stayed in Jinling for a long time." Empress Jiahe told Concubine Yun in a gentle and instructive tone, "Concubine Yun has the kung fu of feeding fish. If you teach her more, teach her."

Being criticized by a country, the word spread out, for fear of making other ladies in Jinling laugh.

If someone adds fuel to the rumors and spreads it for a long time, the marriage may be delayed.

Concubine Yun Gui said with a "ha", "The manners of my niece was taught by her aunt, Qin Qingshan. Back then, my cousin, Qingshan, taught me the manners of my niece. Do you feel dissatisfied with the empress?"

"The deportment of this palace is even said by the emperor to be one of the most dignified in the palace. What's the matter, the queen is trying to find fault with the emperor's vision?"

Of course, Empress Jiahe could not admit to being critical of Emperor Zhaowu's vision.

"Fang is the empress dazzling, right?" Concubine Yun Gui has an attitude of not giving up, "Look carefully, there is something wrong with my niece's demeanor?"

Seeing that Jia and the queen were no longer speaking, she disdainfully said: "The queen can't see it, otherwise, it is up to this palace to ask the emperor to judge?"

Empress Jiahe is always nitpicking in the egg.

Even if Jiang Rao was not in Jinling, Jiang Qin was teaching her, and she couldn't fault her manners at all.

After wandering around again, have seen different scenery, and there is a rare transparency and clarity in the eyes, and the charming face only needs a little red makeup, which makes people unable to take their eyes away.

Hearing that Concubine Yun wanted to invite Emperor Zhaowu, Empress Jiahe flinched a little.

Other concubines may not have

The ability to bring Emperor Zhaowu to come as soon as he is invited, but Qin Yun is different!

She could only grit her teeth and admit her mistake, "It was Ben Gong who saw it wrong."

Concubine Yun was slightly satisfied.

However, it would be sooner for her to give up.

Just now, Concubine Yun Gui was just a beauty who had been quietly feeding and feeding fish. Right now, she was full of arrogance, red lips, and cold eyes, "Then you look more closely, it's just Peugeot?"

"It's extremely beautiful." Yun Guifei said with a smile, "It's even more beautiful than when I was young."

"Oh, I forgot." Concubine Yungui paused for a moment, then suddenly smiled more coquettishly, "In front of the Empress, Ben Gong is also young, how can you say that just now, you are unhappy."

Pretending to blame herself, she shrank her head pretentiously, "My lady will not punish my sister, will she?"

How dare Queen Jiahe punish her.

If she was punished, she would definitely blow the pillow by the head of Emperor Zhaowu's bed again, and recover all the grievances she had suffered.

She didn't know how many times she had suffered such a loss.

Empress Jiahe was filled with anger by her short words, but she couldn't bear it, smiled faintly, pinched her palms, and swallowed her hatred, "Concubine Yun Gui has no intention to lose, it's nothing. How could this palace be That kind of unreasonable person."

"The Empress is really generous." Concubine Yun Gui squinted and smiled.

Just as Empress Jiahe stared at Jiang Rao, she just kept staring at Empress Jiahe, she swept Empress Jiahe up and down, then she pursed her lips and smiled, and praised: "Empress Empress, you are a plain blue body. The clothes are so pretty."

Empress Jiahe was a little smug, and her smile couldn't help deepening, "It's the fabric that was rewarded by the emperor, and the clothes made by the most skilled maid in the palace, it's naturally beautiful."

Concubine Yun Gui nodded frequently, not at all as expected by Empress Jiahe, her eyes showed envy and jealousy.

Instead, because of the deepening smile on the queen's face, she could see that the queen cared about her appearance.

She curled her lips into a smirk.

Since Empress Jiahe cared, she knew what to say.

"Yes, the maids who made the clothes are skillful, and the clothes they made are just enough to cover up the shortcomings of your figure. The emperor's eyesight is also very good, and the color of the material is pure, which is most suitable for your age.

Queen Jiahe: "..."

She just said how could Qin Yun spit out good words.

This is ridiculing that she is not in good shape, she is old

The smile on Empress Jiahe's face faded and she looked at Concubine Yun.

Concubine Yun Gui had no fear and raised her chin slightly.

Let your face that can easily overwhelm the harem Qunfang,

Empress Jiahe was revealed in front of her eyes.

With a charming smile, a handsome and murderous look, and a face of "what can you do to me".

Empress Jiahe stroked her heart.

It was only a moment when she was by Concubine Yun's side, and she couldn't hold back her temper.

Originally, I wanted to draw some words from Concubine Yun Gui, but now I am afraid that if I stay any longer, I will be half-suffocated.

Empress Jiahe's voice was slightly cold, "Bengong wants to go back to take care of the harem affairs, so I won't be here, I will accompany you to enjoy flowers and feed the fish."

Yun Guifei knew as soon as she heard it that Empress Jiahe wanted to show her the power in charge of the harem. She had it, but she didn't.

But she doesn't care about those.

It would be nice to be an idle, willful and unruly concubine, do what you want to do, and say what you want to say.

She blinked, stared at Empress Jiahe's back, and sighed sadly, "Empress Empress, listen to my sister's advice, you have worked so hard for the entire harem, but you need to be more diligent in taking care of it, looking at your back, Hua Fa is born. "

"Unlike me, I don't have anything to worry about every day. I spend a lot of time watching flowers and feeding fish. I'm in a good mood, and I don't get old very much. The emperor has changed me to be a young and ignorant little girl. I'm so upset. ."

The voice sounded extremely sincere, and Queen Jiahe slipped and almost fell.

Anger in my heart: shameless

From behind, there came a light voice, "Empress Empress, pay attention to your manners."

Empress Jiahe couldn't speak in embarrassment. She raised her hand wearing pointed gold finger guards, stroked her hair on the back of her head, and walked away in a slightly messy pace.

After the queen left, Concubine Yun Gui was overjoyed, "Whatever you want to be dignified and virtuous, you can't attack when you are angry. Sooner or later, you will be mad at yourself."

However, when Yun Guifei saw Jiang Rao frowning slightly, she asked worriedly, "Nian Nian, do you think my aunt is a little rude?"

Jiang Rao shook his head, "No."

Her aunt's daring and unscrupulous behavior is entirely dependent on the protection of someone behind her. Since it will not endanger her life, she can make the Queen embarrassed...

Jiang Rao lowered her eyes, and her heart was refreshed.

It was as if she breathed a sigh of relief for the child she saw in her dream hiding behind a tree, the boy with all the scars on his body when he grew up.

It's just that it's not enough.

She looked at the direction in which Empress Jia and Empress left, with a little sadness between her brows, "Why did Empress Empress come here on purpose?"

Concubine Yun Gui threw a handful of fish food into the pond and raised her mouth, "It's not fun to ask for it."

Jiang Rao frowned and recalled what Empress Jiahe had looked at her just now, but felt something was wrong.

She was told by her aunt in person that Lao Chuan could maintain a decent smile without any seizures. A woman with such a deep scheming would never come here just to make herself unhappy, as her aunt said.

She had a keen intuition in her heart, "Why do I think...she seems to know something?"
