Chapter 307: Taboo Spices

When I heard this sentence, my heart jumped and I turned to look at her: "What do you mean."
Liu Ningyan sneered and looked at me: "You say, what do I mean."
"..."
I looked at her silently, didn't speak, and didn't have any surprised expression on her face, and Liu Ningyan also had a contented expression, and slowly came to me, saying, "Yue Qingying, you think no one Any idea what you did? "
"..."
"If I remember correctly, five years ago, in addition to the two of us who entered the palace, there was actually one person, but ..."
She didn't finish her words, but my complexion had turned pale in an instant.
At that time, it had been sealed in my heart for a full five years. I even thought that it was a thing of the previous life. I can completely forget it. No need to mention it, but I didn't expect that Liu Ningyan remembered it and even mentioned it. .
And Liu Ningyan's voice, like a ghost crying in hell, came from a long distance, and it came to my ears. "The emperor shut you down in the cold palace for half a year. Everyone knows that you have killed— "
She didn't finish her words, and I suddenly turned to look at her.
To my eyes, Liu Ningyan also seemed startled, and subconsciously took two steps back.
She looked at me and said pretendingly calmly, "Why, what happened, do you want to kill someone?"
"..."
"I tell you, it's not the same now as I was. I'm the servant girl of the emperor. If something goes wrong, the people in the palace will thoroughly investigate and you won't be able to run by then!"
I stood in the center of the pavilion, holding my fist stubbornly, and my nails were stiffly inserted into the palm, which caused a sting. I felt a palpitation, and then slowly controlled the disordered breathing, then turned my head Looking at her.
"How do you want me?"
"Ha, I just guessed like that, I didn't expect it to be true."
Liu Ningyan laughed, with a proud expression. I gritted my teeth fiercely, almost all of the roots were about to bleed, but I still controlled myself, and said in a deep voice, "What do you want me to do?"
"I already said that I want to be favored by the emperor again. I don't want to be a maid, I want to be the emperor's concubine!"
"Who the Emperor wants to spoil is not in my control."
"If others say this, I believe, if you say, there is really no convincing." Liu Ningyan smiled and said, "I haven't forgotten yet, who made me go to the bed of His Highness three years ago. . "
As soon as I mentioned this, my face was even more ugly, almost shaking all over. Liu Ningyan saw that I didn't make a sound for a long while, and said, "Okay, you can help me, then I will tell the detailed criminal department. , Let ’s say that—

As soon as I heard it, I hurriedly said, "Now he is the emperor, and there are many concubines in the harem. It was not so easy."
"So?"
"You always give me some time and let me think of a way."
"Okay, I'll give you some time, but don't let me wait too long."
Liu Ningyan walked past me and said gently, "I don't know how long I can control this mouth."
After that, she went away with a smile.
I was standing in the pavilion, it was clear that it was midsummer, and the hot sun was shining on the skin as if it were burning. But at this moment, I felt that I was in the ice cellar, and even the blood was slowly solidifying.
I slowly walked out of the pavilion, surrounded by lush flowers and trees, and when I reached out, I picked up a huge peony. The delicate color was in the palm of my hand, like a burning flame that burned my eyes.
Flowers in hands, broken into ashes.
.
The next few days, the weather became hotter.
On the evening of the day, there was no wind in the air. The whole Zhonghua Hall seemed to be stuffed in the stove. Just after Shen, Shen Rou asked me to remove her makeup. It's strange to me that these days, Pei Yuanzhang is staying at the Zhonghua Palace. I'm afraid she will come today too. Why did she remove her makeup so early?
As I was thinking about it, I heard Shen Rou tell the Mingzhu next to him, "Go and tell the inner servant and take the green card from this palace."
"Yes."
I was a little puzzled, looking at the intriguing face in the mirror, and gently asked, "Mother, why is this?"
Shen Rou did not speak, but the pearl next to me looked at me unhappyly and said, "In the past two days, my mother's letter period is coming."
... It turned out to be her letter.
I took off Jin Min's hand and shook it a little, Jin Min's reflection shone across my eyes, I squeezed Jin Min's fingers slightly tightly, and then said with a smile: "Since this is the case, No need to bother Sister Mingzhu, and slavery will go to the royal dining room to preach a message, so help Sister Mingzhu run this trip. "
Shen Rou looked up at me and smiled, "You do your best."
"Madam, this is also a matter of slavery."
"Also, you have been working hard for the past few nights. After you have spoken, you don't have to come over."
"Yes."
After I cleaned up her dressing table, Shen Rou had already entered the inner room to rest, and I pulled out of it, covered the door gently, turned around and walked towards Lanxiangju.
Just came to the door and hit Liu Ningyan just now. She was standing in front of Xu Cairen and said coldly: "Talent, the emperor is coming over for dinner tonight."
As soon as Xu Cairen heard it, his face immediately showed joy, and Liu Ningyan's face became more and more unpleasant. When he saluted to her, he turned and left, and when he turned around, he hit me.
Xu Cairen also saw me and said, "Green baby, the emperor is going to come over for dinner tonight. You go and pass a message to the royal dining room."
"Yes, slaves know."
Liu Ningyan slowly walked in front of me and laughed, "It's a coincidence. Since the young girl is going to pass too, it's better to go all the way."
"Okay."
I smiled and nodded, and turned with her and went out.
Out of the Zhonghua Hall, through a long passage, except for the towering palace walls on both sides, only our footsteps echoed in my ears. Liu Ningyan turned and looked at me and said, "Yue Qingying, do you think I'm kidding you! "
"what?"
"I tell you, it's been several days. The emperor stays at Zhonghua Temple every night. If you don't help me to find a way, don't blame me--!"
"The solution has helped you figure it out."
When Liu Ningyan heard it, he immediately said, "What is it?"
I looked around and determined that there was no one, so I lowered my voice and said, "These days, after the emperor had eaten dinner at Cairen, he would stay directly at the concubine, but today is the consort's letter."
"so what?"
"The emperor is full of interest, but the concubine cannot sleep, if you can take advantage of it at this time--"
Liu Ningyan frowned, and said, "When you are a fool, the concubine's letter will naturally take her green head off. Why would the emperor come over?"
I smiled slightly: "It was the concubine who asked me to talk to the housekeeper, but what if I was one step behind?"
She froze, and immediately understood what she thought, but she said in a discouraged way: "Even if the concubine cannot sleep, there are so many other concubines. Somewhere to go. "
"You don't even have a touch of exciting spices on your body?"
I glanced at her lightly and looked at the sachet attached to her waist. Although I was not familiar with pharmacology, I also saw a little medicine and understood some pharmacology in those days when the rejuvenating medicine was spread.
Liu Ningyan looked down at his sachet, and his face turned red.
But she said discouraged: "What's the use of it, so many maids in the palace are hanging, and I haven't seen the emperor-"
I reached out and took off her sachet and shook it in the air, whispering: "Basil leaves, Yangshi, Xianmao, Epimedium, Elan ... things are good." I thought for a while and said: " I'll go to the royal dining room later, and I will also let them prepare some special dinners, as long as the time is right and the people ... "
Liu Ningyan's face immediately showed a happy expression.
"After this matter is over-I hope you will keep your promise and do not mention it in the palace any more than five years ago."
Liu Ningyan glanced at me and smiled, and said, "As long as the emperor spoils me again, I won't embarrass you anymore."
"It's a word!"
.
In the evening, the weather became increasingly sweltering, and the thick clouds in the sky seemed to be a quilt, covering the entire imperial city, which was almost suffocating.
Pei Yuanzhang arrived at the time of the light. Xu Cairen had already prepared a table of dishes, and the two sat down and ate as usual.
I was standing behind Xu Cairen, Liu Ningyan was standing behind Pei Yuanzhang, and she changed another dress of fresh color and rubbed some powder on purpose. She was indeed a beauty when she said that the lights were swaying It looked more and more pink, and across the table, she could smell a faint fragrance from her body.
After dinner, Xu Cairen gave him another bowl of soup himself, handed it carefully, and said, "I heard that the emperor has been busy with government affairs recently, so I need to make up for it."
Just after her words, a pair of white jade hands reached over and took the soup bowl.
I saw Liu Ningyan laughing, "Let the slaves come."
After speaking, she handed the bowl to Pei Yuanzhang, and said softly, "Please use it, the emperor."
Xu Cairen's complexion changed slightly. Looking at her, Pei Yuanzhang also looked at her, but did not speak, but picked up the corner of his mouth, took a bowl and took a sip.
After taking a sip of soup, he frowned slightly, and looked up at me.
"What soup is this?"
Immediately lowering my head, before I had time to speak, Xu Cairen smiled and said, "This is the oxtail soup specially prepared by the imperial room for the emperor, with a few medicines, just tonic.
"Oh?" Pei Yuanzhang glanced at the stewed white soup and looked at the people in the room, as if smiling, and continued to drink.
The atmosphere eased for a while, and I saw Liu Ningyan's face became more and more red, and the whole person was shaking with nervousness. Xu Cairen glanced at her with a slight unpleasant expression on his face and said: "The Emperor intends to-"
As soon as she had finished speaking, she heard the leaves blowing loudly outside.
"got windy."
"Well," Pei Yuanzhang rinsed his mouth, wiped his mouth, and got up. "Just right, I'm a little stuffy. I want to go out for a walk. I have to go back to the Royal Study Room at night and I won't stay with you."
After speaking, he turned to Liu Ning and said, "Go to Yuquan, and return to the Royal Study Room tonight."
Liu Ningyan's face turned white all at once: "The emperor, emperor, there must be no one to serve you."
"Yes, emperor, someone must be with you," Xu Cairen also advised.
Pei Yuanzhang stood at the table, glanced at the white soup on the table, then slowly raised her head, as if looking at me casually.
"Just let her, follow along."
