I want my green plum to become a phoenix (rebirth)

Although she is not proficient in doing it, in this life, Anise has finally learned to buy people's hearts with some small favors.The maids in the East Side Courtyard are all hard-working people, and they love these small favors the most, and they all do their best for Hui Niang.And that's all that Animian asks for - as long as they are honest, peaceful, and don't cause trouble for her, that's enough.

Hearing the cheerful laughter of the little maids outside the house drinking the peach blossom dew, Hui Niang rolled her eyes and continued to be dazed.What she was thinking about, of course, was not such trivial things as how to win over the maids around her, let alone Qin Jiarong's marriage—not to mention that this matter has not been settled with absolute certainty, even if Qin Jiarong's first wife is about to enter the house, it will not affect Hui Niang what effect.What she was thinking about was naturally related to what she had promised Wang Yan.

Last night when I went to the old lady's room to ask Ann to come out, Wei pulled her and asked her a few words, inquiring about the queen's physical condition. Somewhat scary.

Why is Wei Shi so concerned about the Queen's body?The imperial concubine and the empress are in the harem together, and they can always see each other every three to five days. Does the empress not know how the empress is doing?

Or, they were planning something, that's why they secretly asked Huiniang...

The imperial concubine has been the emperor's favorite concubine for half her life, but in the draft last spring, a new group of almond-eyed and peach-cheeked beauties entered the harem. They were young and young, and they were all at their youngest. Among them, there were one or two who were quite favored. In the past few months, she has been in the limelight, even threatening the status of the imperial concubine.

Especially a young concubine who is only one step away from the concubine's position, and who is in great favor. I heard that the emperor has invited her to sleep with her for ten consecutive days, and around these ten days, the ones who invite her to sleep are all other people. A young Dong Zhaoyi—what's more rare is that both of them respect the empress empress very much, and they don't seem to plan to find another backer.It is not impossible for the noble concubine to plan for a rainy day, and to plan for her son when she has not completely fallen out of favor and holds a certain amount of power.

Speaking of which, the third prince, Wang Heng, has been in the limelight for more than a year. He has done several errands for the emperor and completed them beautifully, which has won unanimous praise from the government and the public.Only in front of the empress, he was not very respectable, the empress did not want to see him at all, and every time they met, she always had a cold face and didn't get any good looks.

Hui Niang is not yet qualified to hear about the grievances involved, but judging by Princess Rongcheng's attitude, she doesn't seem to know why her mother doesn't like her third brother—Princess Rongcheng is cute, young, and her own brother, Prince Yanping She died early, and the remaining brothers are no different in her eyes, only because Wang Yan often plays polo with her, and she is closer to Wang Yan.

In the past year, under the help of Auntie, the two brothers and sisters got together every day - even if it was to ridicule Auntie's bad polo talent, it was still a topic.With a common topic, the relationship between the two brothers and sisters also unknowingly improved a lot.

And with this level of relationship, Wang Yan ran to Changxin Palace much more diligently, and there was a little tacit understanding between him and the empress. In the past month, with the support of the empress, he also organized a few small things for the emperor. Although the errands are inconspicuous, they are done in a satisfactory manner, without any mistakes, and the word "stable" is better.

Be stable, keep out of the limelight, and not be aggressive—whether this is a good thing in the eyes of the emperor is still unclear, but Aninian always feels that this is the most suitable path chosen by the queen for Wang Yan. The risk of the road is much less.

Could it be... the imperial concubine has already noticed her role in it?That's why he used this question to test her?

These questions went through Aniel's mind several times, and it gave her a big headache.Hui Niang found that after reliving her life, she didn't become better at fighting—most of the time, she still focused on avoiding risks, and most of her thoughts were how to make her life more stable.

Fortunately, this kind of distress didn't bother Aniniang for too long, she hadn't figured out the secret plan of the imperial concubine and Wei Shi, when she returned home next time, Wei Shi smiled and said: "The last time The thing is, I made things difficult for you—you are a little girl, and you are not often in the empress's palace, what can you know? The imperial concubine said that the empress is in good health, and we, as courtiers, worried too much. "

There was a sudden change in attitude, but it was not surprising if it was related to recent events.In the past ten days, the third prince Wang Heng and the seventh prince Wang Yan jointly completed a big errand. Wang Heng was very happy, but Wang Yan didn't take the credit. Helping with running errands and passing on messages."The first-class merit was given to Wang Heng, and Emperor Longning also praised Wang Heng a lot. Although he didn't hint that he would hand over the country to him--but such praise and value were enough for Wang Heng and the noble concubine to be satisfied.

After all, in the past 20 years, although Wang Heng was not the most valued son of Emperor Longning, he has always been the most beloved son of Emperor Longning.After Prince Yanping died of illness, Wang Heng became the most beloved and most valued son of Emperor Longning.

Previously, the imperial concubine was afraid of the empress, because she was afraid that she would support Wang Yan to fight for the throne.But now, neither the queen nor Wang Yan intends to show off, so naturally they are relieved.

Although he has figured out this trick, it is not easy to show it in front of Wei Shi.Although Hui Niang's status in the Qin family has increased greatly, her foundation is not stable. She knows that she must hide her strength and bide her time, so that the Wei family can't be afraid of her.She smiled slightly, with a little shyness in her humility, "Mother is still considerate of her daughter... I was thinking of apologizing to my mother. After returning to the palace last time, I didn't see the empress a few times, let alone know the condition of the empress. "It looks pretty healthy."

"The empress is in good health, which means the prosperity of the country." Wei said reluctantly, stared at Aniniang for a few times, and then covered his lips with a veil and smiled, "I also heard that next month palace There is also a polo match here, and in the past few days, Her Royal Highness has often caught you playing on horseback, right?"

Hui Niang lowered her head slightly, showing the beauty of a little girl, "Mother is laughing at me too!" This kind of affectation made her feel a little disgusted, but she still didn't have enough strength to compete with Wei Shi and make Wei Shi put down. It seems that there is only one way to guard against yourself, not to be wary of yourself...

"Stupid child, what does it matter if you play polo well or not? Your Royal Highness thinks highly of you—I see that you have grown a lot in stature since you learned to ride a horse for more than a year, and you seldom get sick. What about the polo. This year’s summer clothes are ready—most of last year’s ones are short, right? This time when I go back to the palace, I’ll take these new clothes with me to avoid being laughed at by the people in the palace.”

"Everything is left to mother's arrangement."

Hui Niang and Wei Shi both showed their filial piety to their mother and son with a bit of superficial hypocrisy, and Wei Shi said: "The old lady has been waiting for a long time, you can go to the back to see the old lady—— There are still some housework to be arranged, and I will go there when I am about to eat dinner."

"Yes." Animian couldn't bear to sit here any longer, she obediently got up, and when she got out of Wei's room, she twitched the corners of her lips almost invisibly.

Zisu has been waiting outside Wei's house.Hui Niang brought a total of two maids into the palace, she needs someone to serve her when she goes out, but when Muxiu returns home, she has to leave someone to watch her in the palace.Therefore, Hui Niang made the decision early in the morning, Zisu and Banxia followed her back to the Qin Mansion in turn, last time it was Banxia, ​​this time it was Zisu's turn.

Seeing Hui Niang coming out of Wei's house, Zi Su rushed up to meet her, "Girl—"

Hui Niang shook her head lightly, then smiled again, "Let's go and greet the old lady."

According to common etiquette, when Hui Niang comes home, the first thing she should do is to say hello to the old lady.But this time when he came back, because Wei Shi had something to say to her, he called her to the main room of the main courtyard.Now that she had finished speaking, she had to win over her emotionally before letting her go to visit her grandmother—this is not the filial piety and rules that a rich family should have.Wei's face is usually good-looking, but whether he respects the old lady or not in his heart can only be seen through such things.

Hui Niang took Zisu out of Wei's yard through the back door, and walked towards the old lady's yard.After entering the old lady's yard, another group of people walked towards them.

"Second sister." The man in a green brocade robe held the hand of the woman in a willow-green spring shirt beside him, and when he saw the two of them, he greeted them first.

"Brother." Hui Niang slightly nodded her head towards Qin Jiarong, as a greeting.Her eyes did not move to Bai Shu who was beside Qin Jiarong at all.Afraid that Zisu would be embarrassed when she saw these two people, she immediately avoided them and continued walking inside.

Don't want to move her footsteps, Bai Shu said in a strange way: "Second girl, the maid beside you is too impolite, how come you don't know how to salute when you see the uncle and me?"

Following her voice, Qin Jiarong's eyes also fell on Zisu. He paused for a moment, and an inexplicable light flashed in his eyes.

Animian stopped the foot that was about to take an instant, she moved her body slightly, and blocked Zisu, who was forced to calm down, behind her, and raised her brows, "What are you, dare to 'you', ah 'I 'Talk to me? No rules!"

"Master—" Bai Shu looked at Qin Jiarong with an aggrieved face.

Qin Jiarong frowned, showing dissatisfaction on her face, "Second sister, this is the mother of your eldest niece, why should you call her 'sister-in-law'? How can you say that Baishu has 'no rules'!"

But Hui Niang sneered, "Brother is wrong, I am the young lady of the family, she is just a servant girl—even if she is a housemaid, she is not the master, so how can she become my sister-in-law? Could it be that the third sister, Fourth sister, can they all call her 'sister-in-law' too? If that's the case, I'll have to ask my grandmother and mother, why is the family so--there are no rules!"

If it was placed a year ago, or even earlier, she might not have endured the same, but she would regret it after she said these reprimands: she has the arrogance of a prostitute, but she grew up in her hometown since she was a child. When the brothers and sisters and servants in the family always lose a little bit of confidence.But it won't happen now - at least she has the confidence to protect the people around her from being bullied by Xiaoxiao.
