Li Huang

Her figure is much thinner, not as slim as the previous slim fit, and the pearly gray dress can't give a soft luster in this dull Luanfeng Hall. Her figure looks so thin and helpless, as if lost. All support.

I looked at the familiar and unfamiliar back, and couldn't help but feel sad, and whispered softly: "Haoyue..." I choked to speak no more.

Haoyue turned her head, even though she had powder on her face, she still couldn't conceal the haggardness of her face and the gray complexion.

When she saw me, she immediately showed a happy smile on her face, so pure, but also so sad. If I knew there was today, I would not design to turn her into the moon beauty today.

But, did I really think of it? I knew that the emperor was very affectionate, not to mention that she was a humble woman with no relatives, and I deliberately ignored the reason why Shen Xiyao would spoil her.

I didn’t think that Haoyue, as my former maid, would definitely be squeezed out by other concubines. In addition, I’m spoiled now. Because of my identity and family background, they can’t do anything to me, so they can only let Haoyue get angry. .

However, I never thought that Concubine Liu would deal with her so soon, so soon I was met by Shen Xiyao, and it became the situation today.

"Miss." Haoyue cried and knelt before me: "Miss, Haoyue misses Miss."

She lifted the face full of tears, my heart tightened, and hurriedly helped her up: "I miss you too. You are suffering. It's my fault, I didn't ask the emperor to let you out early. ."

I stroked Haoyue's thin face, her eye sockets were deeply sunken, and her eyes didn't have the agility of the original sparkling look.

I looked at her carefully, tears fell every time I looked at her, and regretted once in my heart.

Haoyue held up her sleeve to wipe my tears, her tears kept dripping. In this way, the two of them cried for a long time without saying anything. I finally stopped and smiled reluctantly.

"Stop crying, it's a good thing that you come out, and it's a good thing that we met."

Haoyue nodded and smiled sweetly. I looked at her, stretched out my hand to help her close the hair that fell from her ears, knowing that she was not doing well in that Ye Ting, and which of the eunuchs was not with the red-faced face, but there was no way.

I took Haoyue's hand: "I have suffered you."

Haoyue smiled: "It's not bitter, I will be happy when Concubine Liu is planted, but I don't understand the hatred, Xiao Rongzi's hatred has not been reported yet."

I smiled faintly: "What is the hurry."

Haoyue looked at me in surprise: "Miss..."

In her eyes, I am not someone who would say such things. I just smiled and glanced at her without speaking. He took Haoyue's hand and walked out.

"Would you like to walk with me?" I asked Haoyue sideways, and Haoyue's face brightened: "Yes." She laughed, still my Haoyue.

Far behind are the new maids and eunuchs in Kunning Palace. Haoyue and I were walking on the road full of phoenix trees in the Feilong Pond. On one side was the misty lake of Feilong Pond, and on the other was the tall and tall phoenix trees. Occasionally, a green leaf fell, but it did not change the green of Xinxin.

"Tomorrow's family dinner, you too." I said casually. Haoyue was picking up a leaf and playing in her hand. He stopped after hearing my words and followed silently.

"I'm going, I'm afraid it's not compliant." She whispered.

I raised my eyebrows: "How can it be considered unruly? In terms of favor, the emperor also gave it to you."

Haoyue twisted slightly: "Yes, but not this time..."

Before she finished speaking, I interrupted with a smile: "My palace says you can go, and you are qualified to go."

Haoyue stared at me blankly, she suddenly understood, and smiled slightly: "Yes, Miss is a veritable queen now." But her tone was slightly acidic.

I smiled and turned to look at Haoyue firmly: "I have told all the concubines this morning, and tomorrow everyone will show their own stunts. Concubine Liu will not be promoted, but Linglong's full moon is still to be done."

Haoyue pursed her lips and did not speak, her footsteps had stopped, and she kicked the green grass under her feet, holding the silver-gray ribbon of her skirt and twisting her hand.

I sighed and held her shoulders and said, "Haoyue, this is your chance."

Haoyue suddenly raised her head to look at me: "Chance? What opportunity?"

I closed my eyes and said one word at a time: "Let the emperor give you a chance to favor you again."

Haoyue's face changed, and she shook her head gently: "Miss, the emperor, he..."

She paused, struggling in her heart and finally said: "The emperor belongs to you. I can't."

I "pushed" and smiled, "What do you mean by mine? The emperor belongs to all the women in this harem, I'm just a nominal wife."

Haoyue looked at me unclearly, "I don't understand."

I sighed and said: "I am a queen, I have to think of rain and dew, and it is also even, why not let people around me get it? Not to mention..."

I deliberately stopped, and a sly smile appeared: "What's more, didn't you admire the emperor for a long time?"

Haoyue covered her mouth with one hand in surprise and took a step back: "Miss you, how do you know?"

I didn't answer, I just looked at the sparkling lake against the sun, the golden light was dazzling.

"Just tell me if you want this opportunity." I said very calmly, as if I was talking to Haoyue about snacks for dinner.

Haoyue hesitated for a long time, and finally nodded.

Haoyue also learned a little bit when I was learning dance since I was a child. Although she was not as sophisticated as me as a maid, she still has a strong basic skills.

I only intend to teach her a dance that is not difficult but can impress him. After much deliberation, I thought of "Cai Ling Dance".

That dance requires that cool and refreshing feeling be expressed, which is suitable for such a hot day. Tomorrow’s family banquet will be held on Qifeng Terrace, and it’s more comfortable to face the lake.

I taught Haoyue for an afternoon until the evening sun softly shone into the grass of the imperial garden, everything was covered with a crimson color.

Haoyue's savvy is high, and it is naturally effortless to teach, the rest is for her to practice.

After returning to Kunning Palace, I ordered Huiju to send her dance clothes to Haoyue, and then sent Ziying to go to Haoyue's place to dress her tomorrow morning.

This dress is also very important. If I want to achieve my idea once, nothing is sloppy.

In my heart, I have always felt ashamed of her because she was punished. After all, Haoyue became a moon beauty because of me, and because of me, she was favored and fell out of favor. Then, I want her to regain the favor of the emperor, no matter what the emperor likes her. , As long as you have this pet, it is good for Haoyue and for me.

After dinner, I returned to Kunning Palace, and the people sent to Zhaoyang Palace returned to report. Concubine Liu went back and lost her temper. After lunch, she calmed down and stayed in a daze. She muttered something that was cursing me.

I just laughed when I heard it, her cultivation really made me sigh.

After dinner, Shen Xiyao had to discuss with several ministers in the Imperial Study Room because of state affairs. I was using candied fruit in the side hall, and picked up a honey-stained grape. The crystal deep purple glowed through the candlelight in the room. , Into the mouth is a moderate sweet and sour taste.

Someone sent to Liu Fei's office came back again to report, "Niang Niang," is Xiao Luzi.

"I'm sorry, Empress Liu, Concubine Liu has recovered, and she has used dinner. She is now in the sleeping hall and is guarded."

I took a sip of tea and looked at Xiao Luzi: "What else did she do?"

Xiao Luzi thought for a while: "There is nothing more, but I told Fei Ran to prepare the clothes she will wear tomorrow."

I nodded, picked up a plum, just brought it to my mouth and put it down again, wiped my fingers with the brocade handkerchief, stood up, turned around and gently said to Zhilan: "Linglong sleep, let me go and see. "

When I walked to Xiao Luzi and stopped, I said casually: "The imperial doctor said that Concubine Liu will be quiet for a while, and she won't go to the full moon banquet tomorrow. You show me Zhaoyang Palace, don't let Concubine Liu Come out, you can't afford something wrong."

I finished talking and laughed: "Let her take a good rest and recuperate." Then I took Zhilan's hand and walked out.

The night is very nice and starry. I was sitting under the tree in the small garden, with only a red lantern beside me, Zhilan and the others were standing ten steps away from me.

I looked at the sky, there were clouds passing by, and the moon was very bright. I looked at the little pool of blue waves, the koi was faintly visible under the moonlight, and there was a slight smile on my mouth, but my heart was sad.

I have inevitably entered the never-ending battle in this harem.

Looking at the moon, I thought of the man with a pierced neck like a moon, his gentle smile, his banal temperament, and his deep love.

At this moment, does he look at the bright moon like me.

He will, definitely.

I shook my head with a smile, and sat for a long time, until the night wind blew my body cold, and finally got up and returned to the Xi Nuan Pavilion.

Tomorrow is Linglong's full moon banquet.

Qifengtai is built with pure white jade and the railings are all sapphire. It is a luxurious imperial garden building second only to Pengdao Yaotai. Construction began after the completion of Pengdao Yaotai.

Today, it is covered with a red carpet with petals. The large boxwood table where the dishes are placed is also neatly arranged. The crystal plate on the top is fruit, and the silver plate is snacks, all of which emit a clear light.

The upper seat at the head of the hall is a red golden panlong chair and a golden flying phoenix chair, on which are covered with the softest silk satin embroidered cushions embroidered with golden dragon and phoenix patterns.

Only the concubines in the harem this time, the concubines who have not received the grace of the king are all in the outermost places, and the closest ones relying on the throne are those who already have concubines and are very favored by the emperor now.

But Shen Xiyao is not a person who covets beauty. There are only a few who dote on it, Liu Fei, He Fei, Li Fei, An Bi, and a few women of the first level that I am not familiar with.

Concubine Liu, who was supposed to have the greatest momentum, was not allowed to attend because of yesterday's events, but for a while, Shen Xiyao seemed to put his mind on me. Therefore, today those concubines dress up carefully one by one, just for King Bo's attention.

These exquisite clothing and patterns, as well as the jewellery that gleams in the sun, add a lot of beauty to this Qifeng Terrace, with golden lights everywhere, dazzling.

Early in the morning when she was changing her clothes in Kunning Palace, Zhilan brought a set of red embroidered golden phoenix palace dress, with a long hem and slightly raised neckline, the sleeves were slightly wider, and the small pieces were rounded with gold threads. Wishful patterns.

I just looked at the tray and turned my face away. The red is too dazzling, and the phoenix is ​​too dazzling to wear at a family banquet.

Although the women at this banquet all tried their best to make themselves the most beautiful, but I didn't care if Shen Xiyao would be attracted by others. On the contrary, it is a matter for the queen to find a woman of outstanding virtue for the emperor.

"Don't take this one. It's too glamorous and inappropriate." I looked at myself in the mirror. The woman inside had her long hair scattered, and her eyes had lost their original simplicity.

Upon hearing the words, Zhilan put the tray aside and stepped forward: "Manny, what are you going to wear?"
