After the new widow, I became a tyrant's tender outer chamber

Chapter 162
The next morning, Mu Xiang came in with a washbasin and handkerchief, and told Ruan Yuyi that it was snowing outside.

She looked sideways at the window, the window paper was reflected brightly, and even the carvings on the window sill seemed to be a little more vivid.She casually put on her coat, with her hair untied, and opened the door with her shoes on.

The wind blows up, but I don't feel it's as cold as yesterday.

The snow in front of my eyes was just standing still, a thin layer was spread on the trees and rocks, like a white gauze.She walked to the atrium and stroked the thin snow on the leaves.

The leaves are covered with snow.She clasped her palms together, the little snow turned into snow water in her hands after a while, making her palms cold and slippery.

"Miss!" Mu Xiang chased after holding the cloak.

She shook off the cloak and wrapped Ruan Yuyi around her.Ruan Yuyi turned her head, with a smile on her lips, "Go and call the wood spirit, she is very playful, she will be happy to see her."

Seeing that she was smiling sincerely, Mu Xiang was taken aback.Seemingly infected, he immediately smiled and said, "Yes, I'm going now, servant girl."

Seeing Mu Xiang leave, she closed her cloak, held up a leaf, and pressed a mark on the thin snow with her fingertips.

This is the third snow she has seen in the capital.

Mu Xiang came back soon, and shook her head at her, "The girl is still curled up in the quilt, she looks sick, and looks like she is not in a good shape."

"But sick?" She asked softly, "Go ask an imperial doctor to come and take a look."

Mu Xiang pursed her lips, "The servant girl asked the same question, she turned her back to the servant girl, she got up to wait after a short rest, it's okay."

During the daytime, there were no candles in the lower room, and it was a little dark. The wooden spirit huddled on the bunk by himself, the quilt almost covered the top of his head, and his voice was muffled and soft.

Ruan Yuyi frowned, with worry in her eyes, "I don't know when she learned medical skills. Don't pay attention to what she said, just ask someone to see her."

Mu Xiang responded, and the cooking went.

After standing outside for a long time, she felt a little cold, so she went back to the house.After Mu Xiang made arrangements, she waited for her to wash and wash, and then put hot charcoal fire in the sleeve stove, and the two went to Chonghua Palace.

Early in the morning, concubine Shu sent someone to inform her that she got two bottles of high-quality winter tea, and invited all the sisters in the palace to enjoy the snow and drink tea.In fact, it is also an excuse to gather everyone together in order to understand the current situation of each palace.

Once the person from Chonghua Palace opened his mouth, no one dared to neglect it.

Ruan Yuyi was walking on the road when she happened to meet Concubine Xu from Yufu Palace.This Concubine Xu has a very cold temper, and when she sees her, she nods lightly and is relatively speechless.

Just naturally, the two went together.

When I went to Taiji, there was no one in the hall.The maidservant who had been standing earlier greeted them and led them to the backyard.Concubine Shu is already sitting at the stone table in the pavilion with another concubine.

From a distance, a shrill female voice was heard, "Ruan Jieyu is on time today, it seems that I really have a good memory last time."

Li Meiren was dressed in a golden embroidered palace attire, and she glanced at the door, "Sister Xu, why did you come with her? Ruan Jieyu is the only master in our palace who is favored. She is precious, so don't let others knock her down. Then the bitter fruit will come." But we poor people."

What she said made her speak in a cadence, and at the end, she glanced at Concubine Shu to see if she was pleasing her.

Xu Pin knew that she was a talker, so she didn't even bother to give her a glance, and sat in her usual seat.

Ruan Yuyi slightly clenched her hands under her sleeves, and stepped forward to greet Concubine Shu.

"Look, it's not a lot of rules." Li Meiren covered her mouth and sneered.

Concubine Shu calmly put down the cup in her hand, first gave her a seat, and then looked at Li Meiren, "I see that Li Meiren's mouth is getting worse, if I can't control it anymore, I will take care of it for you." No matter. Kuang Ruan Jieyu has a higher status than you, so it's your turn to criticize her."

The hierarchy in the palace has always been strict, even if it is only one rank lower, it can become the capital to climb over other people's heads and be domineering.

Li Meiren turned pale, and looked back at Concubine Shu in disbelief.She didn't know why she was looking for Concubine Shu, who was chased by Ruan Yuyi before, but now she came back to protect her.

She gritted her teeth and said, "If the empress doesn't like it, the concubine just doesn't say anything."

At first I thought this matter was fine, but Concubine Shu said, "You made tea for Ruan Jieyu yourself, you have the right to make amends."

Li Meiren was upset in her heart, she couldn't bear to lose face, she just sat still, as if she had never heard of it.

Now that there are few people in the palace, Ruan Yuyi didn't want everyone to make trouble.But seeing her being so provocative, he didn't want to say anything for her.

Concubine Shu's face darkened, "Sister Li hurt her leg, or hurt her ear?" Although she spoke calmly, she made people feel that she was hurt for no reason.

Only then did Li Meiren move.

She got up, took the teapot from the hand of the palace maid, pressed the lid with one hand, and poured it into the cup in a hurry, but steadily.The water hit the porcelain cup, making a crisp sound.

Fortunately, it was harvested in time, and the water did not overflow.Li Meiren bowed reluctantly, "Please greet Jieyu."

Ruan Yuyi nodded, told her to sit back, and said in a gentle voice, "Li Meiren knows tea." She had no intention of embarrassing Li Meiren, and with a light word, she revealed the matter.

Ordinary noble girls don't know how to pour tea, but it's pretty good, she was also taught by A Niang.Li Meiren was angry, because she poured in a hurry, but the amount of tea in it was appropriate.

Li Meiren's face softened a little, "My father once went to Ryukyu, and learned about the tea ceremony there. Out of curiosity, my concubine also learned a thing or two, this—"

She paused suddenly, fearing that Concubine Shu would find her too wordy, she went to see Concubine Shu's face.

Seeing that Concubine Shu didn't say anything, she just hung her head and ate the fruit, so she was relieved and continued to talk endlessly while taking advantage of her interest.

In the meantime, people have arrived one after another.The pavilion seemed a little crowded, but it seemed that the barriers had blurred, and everyone was getting closer to each other.

Because they were all noble masters, the pavilion was filled with fragrance and wind.Outside the pavilion, the snow fell continuously, and even the ground was covered with a layer of whiteness.

Gossiped a few times, and somehow talked about the hot spring in the palace.

"In the past, there were many concubines in the palace, but the first emperor only brought three or four concubines. This year, I don't know how to arrange it." Li Meiren is not only open-minded, but also has many sources of news.

Most of the tea, fruit and snacks on the table are missing, and the palace servants are bringing new ones to fill them up.

Concubine Xu was concentrating on drinking tea, when concubine Shu saw her, she smiled and asked, "Is this tea from my palace really worthy of concubine Xu's praise?" Concubine Xu didn't like to make any noise in the past, so concubine Shu always liked to tease her.

Concubine Xu put down the teacup with a calm expression, "It's really good. But no matter how we guess for this hot spring trip, Ruan Jieyu is indispensable, that's for sure."

Although she always looks cool and cold, but in the end she is in the palace, and it would be false to say that she doesn't care about the grace at all.

Ruan Yuyi was eating cakes, when she heard her name, her ears turned red.
