Cannon Fodder Strategy

Concubine Xian calmed down her anger, and everyone in the palace breathed a sigh of relief. An Ru asked people to prepare dinner for Concubine Xian. She was tired after a hard day today, and Lily asked people to invite her back. It was too late in the Jianjia Palace. Even if she wanted to see the emperor now, the emperor would have already turned over the sign and might not come. Concubine Xian froze in the Lily Palace for a long time, inhaling the soothing incense. After washing, I felt full and warm, and I was so sleepy that I couldn't even open my eyelids, so I stopped thinking about crying to the emperor today and prepared to go again tomorrow.

But when Concubine Xian Guo was sent back to Jianjia Palace by Lily, Shang Xi in Xianfu Palace had already received the news that Concubine Xian was driven back by Lily.

Lily never thought of hiding this matter from anyone. Shang Xi was working as an errand in Xianfu Palace these days, so naturally he knew about it immediately. He thought of the scene when Lily hit him with the jade pendant today, and thought that when the late emperor was still there, he was the eunuch beside the late emperor. Whoever saw him didn't call him "Eunuch Shangxi"? Nowadays, the emperor and his courtiers, the late emperor has been gone for less than a year, and the people left behind by the late emperor have now become trash that everyone can step on.

Due to physical defects, eunuchs were originally more eccentric than ordinary people, especially Shang Xi. Although he was not reused now, he still could not forget the glory he had when he was favored by the emperor. He always wanted to compete, but he was always ignored. Pressing down, there was now bad blood between Lily and Concubine Xian. Thinking of Lily's humiliation to him today, Shang Xi walked out of Xianfu Palace after dinner.

Lily usually paid no attention to him, and no one except the little eunuch who was waiting for him was there to care where he was going. Today is no exception. But after Shang Xi was scolded by Lily today, Lily made people stare at him. Now that he left, the palace people turned back to report the news to Lily. When she found out that Shang Xi had left Xianfu Palace, Huayi couldn't help but cursed: "What an immature person."

For the past two days, Shangxi was in the Xianfu Palace. Lily provided him with delicious food and drinks, and treated him like a guest. Now she was eating everything. Although Lily was calm and unhurried at the moment, she must have a plan in mind, but Huayi still couldn't bear it and cursed a few words in his mouth.

"Just watch the show!"

Shang Xi left Xianfu Palace and headed for Tai Chi Palace where the emperor was. Emperor Yong Ming turned over a beauty sign today, had dinner and approved the memorial, and before he even left Tai Chi Palace, he heard that Shang Xi was back. . Shang Xi didn't say anything about Lily hitting him with the jade pendant today. She only said that Lily summoned Concubine Xian to Xianfu Palace under the pretext of Liang Mubei, but in the end she did not see Concubine Xian, but instead told her that she had left her alone for half a day.

He was also shrewd and knew that if he complained too much and failed to grasp the key points, Emperor Yongming would inevitably feel upset, not to mention that the emperor would most likely think that he was narrow-minded and seeking revenge. He also accused the noble concubine, so he only talked about the virtuous concubine, and finally said:

"I only thought that the imperial concubine summoned the virtuous concubine for the eldest prince's affairs. However, after a few days, the imperial concubine did not inquire about the eldest prince's affairs. Today, she did not even see the virtuous concubine, so she sent her back."

Emperor Yongming looked calm and showed no signs of happiness or anger: "Then what has the imperial concubine checked in the past few days?"

"Not much movement."

When Liang He heard this, he sneered. A few days ago, she shouted that she wanted to take revenge for Liang Mubei, but now there was no movement for several days. Instead, she was recuperating her body. He didn't even go to the Queen Mother's palace to pay his respects. Now he only humiliates the Concubine Xian to vent his anger. Emperor Yongming really thought that she was smart and calm, but now it seems that he really looked down on her. The way he acted a few days ago was really pretentious. Deep down, she is still the woman who doesn't know how to make progress, and only knows how to fight with others in the palace.

After pondering for a moment, Liang He asked: "Which one did I turn over today?"

Sanfu, the personal chamberlain beside him, replied: "Back to the emperor, this is Fu Meiren from Changxing Palace."'

Concubine Xian was wronged today, but now the Zhou family still needs it, not to mention that Zhou Baihe has always done meritorious service in raising children. Now that the eldest prince has just died, she has been demoted by him. If he slaps her in the face again, I am afraid it will It chilled the hearts of the Zhou family, but they were loyal. Emperor Yongming folded his hands and said, "Then I will send someone to inform you. I will go to Jianjia Hall."

Sanfu responded and sent his adopted son to Changxing Palace to convey the message. The emperor went to comfort Concubine Xian, but Concubine Xian was very tired today, but she had already fallen asleep.

Because the emperor's order to turn over the signs was sent to Changxing Palace, the people in Jianjia Palace never thought that the emperor would come now. Emperor Yongming didn't let anyone know when he came in today. It was An Xue. When she saw the emperor coming, she said that she wanted to wake up the wise concubine, but her body leaned towards the emperor. She had a faint scent of plum blossoms on her body, and the young and handsome young woman stretched out her hand. He hugged her body and asked:

"It smells great, but what kind of xiangzi was used?"

At this time, An Xue's pretty face turned red. When she heard the emperor's words, she didn't dare to open her eyelids: "What I said back to the emperor is that the queen mother praised the slave a few days ago and asked someone to reward her with a box of ointment." He didn't know whether it was the girl's blushing face that interested Emperor Yongming, or the fragrance that attracted Emperor Yongming's praise. He picked An Xue up and headed to the side hall.

When Concubine Xian got up the next day, she happily prepared to complain to the emperor. However, she found that she had to wait on An Ru alone, and her face was not very pretty. Out of curiosity, she couldn't help but ask, did she know what the emperor had done last night? She came to Jianjia Palace to comfort herself, but in the end, her personal maid, An Xue, climbed into bed. Concubine Xian was so angry that she almost died!

She smashed the bowls in the palace and couldn't use her breakfast. When An Xue came to greet her, she saw the charm on An Xue's face that had not dissipated. Concubine Xian almost took the gold hairpin to kill her Cross to death.

There are always no secrets in the palace, and all the palaces have spies on each other. When Lily got up in the morning, it was still dark, and Shiqing was talking in her ears about what happened last night.

I know that the emperor went to Jianjia Palace yesterday to comfort Concubine Xian. As a result, Concubine Xian was not favored by the emperor, but An Xue, her personal guard who kept watch at night, was.

"It is said that the emperor blessed her several times in a row and left in the middle of Haishi. He left at the beginning of Yinshi, several hours ago." The joke about Jianjia Palace early in the morning had been spread by spies from various palaces. Zhou Baihe was originally a The Crown Princess and the old people around Emperor Yongming all had their nails buried in her. Xianfu Palace was not the first to get the news, but it was definitely not the last.

There are many slaves in the palace who cheat on their masters. It is not unusual for the servants serving the palace masters to climb onto the dragon bed. However, An Xue has been serving the concubine since childhood. She is Concubine Xian's confidant, Concubine Xian trusts her very much, but now something like this happens, it really makes people laugh out loud.

"Even if Concubine Xian stays with her on weekdays, she only leaves within an hour or two at most." Yesterday, the emperor went to Jianjia Palace to appease Concubine Xian, but now that something like this happened, everyone thought of Concubine Xian's face. Face. At this moment, I couldn't help but want to laugh out loud.

The relationship between the masters of the various palaces was not friendly, and most of the slaves also disliked each other. Now that something happened to Concubine Xian, the usually steady Shi Qing showed a bit of joy at this time, and Lily laughed. She smiled and said, "In that case, I shouldn't miss today's good show." She already knew from the plot that An Xue would betray the master and crawl into bed. So I wasn't surprised at the moment.

"The empress is wise." Shiqing praised, cleaned Lily's face, carefully dug out Xiangyi seeds and smeared it on her face. The palace servant who combed her hair originally wanted to comb Lily's hair into a bun, but Lily saw it in the mirror. Although Lily Zhou was only eighteen years old and had an elegant and beautiful face on the face in the middle, her eyes were calm and her temperament was cold because she was a different person, and her girlish hair looked much more childish. Lily frowned: "Change."

She doesn't like the hair. The palace attendant quickly removed her bun and put on a more dignified hairstyle, and Lily stopped talking.

Yesterday, Lily first summoned Concubine Xian, left her to dry for half a day, and then burned her with soothing incense. She expected that Concubine Xian had something on her mind yesterday, and An Shenxiang could not calm her down at that time. But after returning to the palace, the fatigue must have doubled. Yesterday, she deliberately failed Shang Xi and made Concubine Xian angry to death. When Shang Xi complained, Lily knew that Emperor Yongming would definitely go to Jianjia Palace to comfort him. The virtuous concubine’s. Concubine Xian had inhaled the soothing incense and must have gone to bed early yesterday. It was impossible for her to think of welcoming the holy concubine, so naturally An Xue came in instead.

"How do you know that this can be done?" Huayi felt relieved and couldn't help but ask.

After hearing this, Lily smiled faintly: "When Mu Bei died, Concubine Xian's veil was left in the imperial garden. If this matter really had nothing to do with Concubine Xian, then someone around her must have betrayed her husband. I am worried that private items such as handkerchiefs are so important. I think it is someone close to Guo who holds the key. Even if, as Concubine Xian said, she was framed for this matter, then private items such as handkerchiefs and so on, Usually the people in her palace clean it by themselves, so how could it get caught in the clothes and be ruined by someone's washing?" If clothes and other items are sent to the laundry department for cleaning, someone needs to take care of them. "The palace There has never been such a careless person in the world. If there were, how could he survive today?" I am afraid that Concubine Xian was chewed to the bone before Emperor Yongming ascended the throne.

Since there are problems with the people around Concubine Xian, the person who can take charge of her intimate clothing is the person she trusts. And Lily happened to know that An Xue climbed into bed later, so naturally she set a trap for her.

"A slave betrays his master, either for fame or for profit. An Xue and An Ru are the sons of the Guo family. The whole family is under the control of the Guo family. Obviously, they cannot simply seek wealth." And when these two palace men were able to follow the Xian Concubine into the Prince's East Palace, their appearance was not bad. "Water flows to lower places, and people go to higher places. An Xue looks good, so she will naturally have some thoughts. What's more, the emperor is young and powerful. If she wants to get a position, it is possible to compete for it."

Things will happen sooner or later, but Lily's design made it happen in advance. It should not have happened at this time, but later. Concubine Xian was caught off guard at that time. Lily thought of this and let the two palace men dress her up:

"Ms. Guo really needs to thank me. Otherwise, if she hides it more, she will suffer more losses at the hands of An Xue in the future, which would be pitiful."

"Your Majesty is so kind-hearted." The waiter who brought the water praised. Lily paused after hearing this and couldn't help but laugh. "She can talk, thank you." The palace is indeed an interesting place. He has plotted against Concubine Xian. She probably knows the truth. Maybe she will do what the servant said. Then she will have to thank herself for clearing her up early. Having such a cancer, even if she is furious to death, it is still better than having to suffer more consequences later and be betrayed again.

After packing up and dressing up, Lily took a small chariot and headed towards Fengming Hall. It had only been one night and it was already snowing in the capital. The plum blossoms on the road were already pressed on the branches by a thin layer of snow, and they were white. Red, exceptionally beautiful. The eunuch carrying the chariot walked carefully step by step. When he arrived at Fengming Hall, Concubine De and others had already arrived. Although Concubine Xian had powdered her face, her face could still be seen to be ugly.

When the chamberlain finished singing "The Concubine" came, the people waiting for the Queen Mother in the palace all turned their heads. Except for Concubine De and others who looked like they were watching a good show, Concubine Xian's almond-shaped eyes were almost bursting with fire. Looking at Lily's eyes as if she wanted to eat someone, there are no fools in the palace, and Concubine Xian is not stupid now. She didn't know that she fell into Lily's scheme yesterday. She was so sleepy for no reason yesterday, and Lily specially called Shang. Xi Lai summons her, Shang Xi is from the emperor, and Lily was so over the top yesterday.

At first, Concubine Xian thought Lily had lost her mind and gone crazy after losing her son. Now it seems that she has lost her mind and gone crazy. She has clearly become more cunning and cunning, causing herself to suffer such a big loss and make such a big ugly mistake. , she also lost a close confidant and was betrayed by the people around her, which made the virtuous concubine even want to vomit blood.

"Why are you sisters here so early?"

Concubine Xian's eyes were sharp, but Lily looked over with a smile. People from Fengming Palace came up to take the mink fur cloak from Lily's body, and someone else replaced her with a copper stove to warm her hands. Only then did Lily sit down on her usual chair. From the position where he was greeting Empress Dowager Lu, he ignored Concubine Xian's cannibalistic eyes and asked gently, pretending not to know.

Concubine De on the side had been waiting for Lily to ask this question. She covered her mouth and smiled when she heard this: "Sister, I don't know, but we need more sisters in the palace."

People in the palace are accustomed to adding insult to injury. It is obvious that An Xue's betrayal of the master has probably been spread to everyone by now, but at this moment, everyone pretended not to know and asked questions. Concubine Xian's pretty face became more and more... It’s ugly, Liu Bijiao smiled:

"Multiple sisters? But even if the emperor wants to draft a talent show, it should be after the beginning of spring. I'm a little confused by what Empress De is saying." (To be continued ~^~)

PS: Asking for a monthly ticket! I originally wanted to maintain the noble and elegant sentiments of a literary young woman, but the little bitch of the rankings forced me to sell my morals. I struggled hard, but I didn't struggle! So I accepted it with tears in my eyes! I was thinking hard today and sensed the signal God sent to me. He told me to ask for votes. He said that after asking for votes, I would never gain weight and be super beautiful. His words came with a background of roses and beautiful piano music sound effects, so... …I’m here to ask for votes. . . . I am talking such serious nonsense, no one wants to vote for me!
