Story of the Forbidden Palace - C94

After leaving Ning Xi Palace, I felt unusually depressed. After letting a servant lead Yun Long back to the palace, they slowly walked along the Jade Spring Lake’s path with Ning Zhi.

The sun at noon in the spring is slightly hot, congealed for me to hold up the oil-paper umbrella, the umbrella on the painting of a pair of mandarin ducks playing water is particularly exquisite. Along the way, the heart of the Black Courtesan Belle was uninteresting.

However, Ning Zhi intentionally calmed my mood, and said with a smile, “Young Mistress, look at that basin of ‘Green Dragon Lying on the Ink Pond’, it’s actually the highest quality black peony. Such a strong and fragrant drive is rare. ”

I only slightly raised the corner of my mouth into a faint smile. “I’m afraid that the more attention is attracted, the more terrible it is. Perhaps some empress of the palace might see it and break off a flower to make flower dew, or tear off a petal to soak in water. This is the end of the peerless flower. ”

Now that he thought about it, even if a single flower managed to escape in this harem, how could a human escape? I took a step forward and pinched on a fragrant Hua Zhi, then broke it ruthlessly.

“Rather than always having people come at me first, it’s better to let me take the lead first.” I turned my hand over to Ning Zhi, but she cried out. The green needle on the stem of the flower pierced into her slender finger, and once it was pulled out, blood quickly seeped out.

“Although the flower is good, it has thorns!” I lightly shook my head. “I’ll go to the imperial physician and get some medicinal powder applied. I’ll carefully treat the wound.” Ning Zhi shook her head: “It’s a good thing that the green thorn on Hua Zhi’s body pierced through a servant. But Young Mistress definitely should not use her hands to break flowers, and just tell us to do it. ”

I always felt that Ning Zhi was too considerate, and I was a little doubtful in my heart about her intentions. I don’t know what it was from the start, but I became so cautious that even the people around me started to suspect and doubt me.

Sighing to myself, he said, “I’m really tired. Lipid, step back. I want to be alone. ” Ning Zhi didn’t say anything further. She quietly retreated ten steps back and stood with her back facing me.

When he looked up, he saw a figure standing in the pavilion beside the lake. When he took a step closer to take a closer look, he saw that it was a beautiful woman.

“This concubine greets the Imperial Concubine Shan Empress!” When she saw me, she felt a little awkward. And then she stood up straight and bowed to me. “My lady,” she said. I replied amiably, “Whose daughter are you? You actually haven’t seen her before?”

“Reporting to the Empress, my concubine, Shen Shi Qi Meng, is the daughter of the prefecture lord.” Madame Shen’s gentle voice was soft and refreshing. She was a well-mannered woman, and her every gesture exuded the dignified aura of a lady.

However, this kind of woman was not considered outstanding in Xuanyuan’s harem. She did not have the beauty of a queen, nor was she as beautiful as a Four Imperial Consorts. She was not even as pretty as a little girl who relied on her beauty to seduce a Madame Jin.

Seeing that I was absent-minded, Lady Shen couldn’t help but softly call out, “Esteemed Empress, esteemed wangfei …” I replied, “En.” Only then did I come back to my senses. “Why is it only you?”

Madame Shen quickly curtsied and replied: “Chenqie is a talent conferred by the Emperor and does not have a personal Palace Maidservant.” I nodded, my mind clear. Unconsciously, she lowered her head and discovered that the pair of thin and worn-out legs had a small opening.

I felt a trace of displeasure in my heart and couldn’t help but add in a stiff tone, “She is now the emperor’s concubine, so how can she be so disrespectful? If Empress sees it, I will punish you for disrespect. ”

Mistress Shen hurriedly kneeled to the ground, “Please forgive me, esteemed Imperial Concubine Shan. I will be more cautious in the future. I definitely won’t dare to do this again. ”

Only now did he see that the beaded ornaments on her head were actually some ordinary goods. It could even be said to be a cheap inferior item. He felt somewhat puzzled. The daughter of a dignified county magistrate was in such need of money.

He pulled out a gold-plated tortoise hairpin and handed it over to her. “Since it’s so rare to get along with your little sister, this hairpin will be yours.” Later on, I will send someone to deliver some good golden silk shoes to your palace. ”

When Lady Shen heard this, she kowtowed repeatedly and muttered, “Thank you for your grace, thank you for your grace …”
