The grace of rebirth after abandonment

Guo Meiren naturally knows that the queen doesn't like her since she entered the palace. These days, she has also been suppressed and taught by the queen a lot, but she expected these early in the morning, and she has made enough preparations get ready.

What the queen said at this moment will obviously make her a target of public criticism, but she will not let the other party treat her like this. I specially held a chrysanthemum banquet, so I specially prepared some chrysanthemum tea, so I came late, and I hope the empress will not punish me!" Although it is punishment, but this kind of retreat is the only way to advance, according to the empress's dignified and loving attitude. It looks like I'm afraid I won't be punished.

"Oh, is that so? You prepared chrysanthemum tea? Guo Meiren has a heart." The queen didn't expect Guo Meiren to come out like this. After a while, she calmed down, but she didn't say whether to punish or not. .

"The concubine is just trying to do her best. This chrysanthemum tea is not a precious thing. It just fits today's banquet, so the concubine can only show her shame." She doesn't mind going along with the other party, anyway, she knows how to use this characteristic of the queen to benefit herself.

"Since that's the case, then you can bring the chrysanthemum tea you prepared. I believe everyone understands your intentions."

"Yes, empress empress!" Signaling to the side to bring up the prepared chrysanthemum tea, Guo Meiren knew that the empress hadn't let go of her blaming just now, just waiting to see how her chrysanthemum tea was doing.She is very confident in her chrysanthemum tea, and after everyone tastes it, no one will be able to find out what's wrong with her.

Not long after, Guo Meiren's maid came with chrysanthemum tea. Guo Meiren saw it and smiled, "Let's have a taste!" The maids poured the tea one by one, and suddenly a faint scent of chrysanthemum came to the nostrils. , mixed with a little bit of sweetness, it smells very good.

"This chrysanthemum tea is originally bitter, but Guo Meiren's tea is special. It's a little sweet, so it doesn't have a special taste." Guo Meiren's tea is good. Everyone wanted to criticize, but they couldn't say anything.

"Hehe, I just added some honey. Honey is the most suitable for our girls to drink for beauty." She explained with a smile, Guo Meiren didn't hide her secrets, and she seemed to be a very easy-going person.

"Guo Meiren is so clever, it's no wonder the emperor loves you so much." There are a few beauties who are unlucky. How is it like them, some people even rarely see the face of the emperor?

Isn't it just younger and more beautiful?Where else is better than them?

"Beauty Zhao praised me absurdly, and I was just taking a chance. In fact, I didn't like bitter tea, so I asked someone to put honey in it. I didn't expect it to taste good." Seeing the other party's jealousy, Guo Meiren didn't react at all, and everyone laughed at what others said. The depth of the city is really admirable.

"Hehe, Meiren Guo is being modest." Seeing that the other party refused to enter, Meiren Zhao felt as if she had punched the cotton with her fist, and she didn't say anything. She drank a few sips of tea and shut up immediately.

The queen saw Meiren Zhao's embarrassment, and also saw that some people with similar status to Guo Meiren, and even those with higher status were somewhat dissatisfied with Guo Meiren.The queen secretly kept these people in her heart, thinking that she would be her pawns in the future, and seeing no one talking at the moment, she said, "Guo Meiren, you have a heart, everyone take your seats, the chrysanthemum appreciation feast is about to begin. "Guo Meiren has such a good excuse, and it is not easy for the queen to take the opportunity to get angry, otherwise others will say that she, the lord of the palace, is not virtuous.

The queen has always been like this, no matter how insidious her private methods are, she always appears dignified and elegant on the surface. of the realm.

"Yes, empress!" The chrysanthemum appreciation feast began, and everyone sat down one after another. Su Lanzhi sat down in a quiet corner, not wanting to be disturbed.

To be honest, she didn't like to attend the banquet in the palace very much. Seeing these concubines fighting openly and secretly, Su Lanzhi felt tired for them.It's just that the splendor and wealth of this palace is completely entrusted to one person, maybe they really have no choice but to do so?

But why do you have to enter the palace to share a man with others?

Few women in this world are so magnanimous, even if they are as graceful as a queen.

So when Su Lanzhi was in the palace, she never got very close to any concubine, and kept a certain distance from everyone on weekdays, just maintaining superficial politeness.

Just now she chose a seat and sat down, Su Lanzhi felt a cyan figure flashing in front of her, "Princess Wucheng, hello!" When she looked up and saw Guo Meiren's bright and moving face, Su Lanzhi Zhi looked at the smile on the other party's face, no matter how she looked at it, she felt that something was wrong.

"Guo Meiren!" In terms of rank, Su Lanzhi's rank is higher than Guo Meiren's. She just nodded slightly, and didn't intend to have a deep conversation with the other party.

"Hehe, Princess Wucheng, can I sit next to you?" Since it was the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Banquet, the queen didn't want to set a seat, so everyone was rigid.Su Lanzhi has never been someone who likes to cause trouble, so she is naturally far away now, but Su Lanzhi doesn't understand why this Guo Meiren is sitting next to her, you know, her position actually depends on These views are not the best.

Glancing at Guo Meiren, Su Lanzhi didn't speak. In fact, she didn't need to ask her if the other party wanted to sit beside her. Anyway, this was not a palace banquet, and the requirements were so harsh. [

It's just that Guo Meiren obviously didn't think so. Seeing that Su Lanzhi didn't pay attention to her, she smiled, and her attitude was very sincere, "Princess Wucheng, you also know that I was late just now, and it's not good right now. Go grab a seat with everyone. Does Princess Wucheng mind if I sit next to you?" Pointing to the position next to Su Lanzhi, Guo Meiren seemed a little embarrassed and begging, Su Lanzhi looked over there and found that The concubines were all sitting together in groups of three or four, and it seemed that they were all good friends.This Guo beauty got the favor as soon as she entered the palace, and she is a newcomer, so she will inevitably be squeezed out.

With a clear mind, Su Lanzhi didn't take another look at the other party, "Guo Meiren is free to do whatever she wants. This is a chrysanthemum appreciation feast, and there are not so many requirements." She nodded, agreeing, Su Lanzhi didn't think this Guo The beauty really chose to sit by her side because she was squeezed out by others.

You know, in other places, there is still a place for the reborn farmer Arita.

"Thank you, Princess Wucheng." Smiling, Guo Meiren seemed to be relieved, and soon sat beside Su Lanzhi. Su Lanzhi clearly felt the moment Guo Meiren sat beside her. , There are many probing eyes passing over her body, this feeling makes Su Lanzhi uncomfortable.It's just that Guo Meiren is a new favorite now, so everyone will naturally pay more attention, so she pretends not to know.

The queen seemed to glance at Su Lanzhi and Guo Meiren, and was a little unhappy that Guo Meiren was sitting next to Su Lanzhi, "Hehe, Laner, why are you sitting so far away? The palace asked you to sit down as you like, and it is also to make you happy, but you sit so far away, what do you think? Come, how about sitting next to this palace?" It is an honor to be able to sit next to the queen, everyone The look in Su Lanzhi's eyes immediately changed.

This Princess Wucheng is really favored. I heard that the queen mother and queen are very good to her, but I don't know if it is true.If it is true, they will be able to get more grace through her in the future if they try to curry favor.

Many concubines looked at Su Lanzhi with bright eyes, and some other ministers and ministers were envious when they saw that the queen treated Su Lanzhi so kindly, and naturally they were also jealous.

Su Lanzhi took everyone's eyes into her eyes, and didn't want to cause trouble at all, so she directly rejected the Queen's proposal, "Thank you, Aunt Huang, it's just right for Lan'er to be here, Aunt Huang can't just because of Lan'er It's a privilege." It was agreed that it was chrysanthemum appreciation, and each chose his own position. The queen also wanted to be fair and fun. With Su Lanzhi saying this, the queen couldn't say anything.After all, the seats around her are also full. If Su Lanzhi wants to go there, wouldn't she have to be moved?Wouldn't that be very embarrassing?

"In that case, then I won't force you." With a smile, the queen didn't say anything.Today, she also wants everyone to be happy when they enter the palace. By the way, she will get in touch with the minister's family and get more support for her son.Of course I won't offend people at this juncture.

……

Everyone sat down one after another, and the chrysanthemum appreciation banquet began. The things in the imperial garden are really different, and there are all kinds of precious varieties.There are golden ones with slender and round petals, some red ones, full of festive ones, and even small ones, which are gratifying... In short, there are all kinds of them. Everyone sits there drinking chrysanthemum tea and admiring the chrysanthemum tea. Chrysanthemum, gossip, it's a little different.

Su Lanzhi was sitting there drinking tea quietly, but Guo Meiren beside her didn't let her be quiet anymore, "Princess Wucheng, among so many chrysanthemums, which one do you like the most?" Xu Shi It's not good if Su Lanzhi wants to make friends with Guo Meiren who takes the initiative to speak up.

"They each have their own merits. In my opinion, they are all good." The vague answer, Su Lanzhi obviously did not want to continue the topic, but Guo Meiren was so smart, but she didn't seem to understand, and continued, "Hehe, it is said that chrysanthemums are gentlemen in the autumn wind. When all things wither, only chrysanthemums bloom so vigorously. Most scholars praise chrysanthemums, but I don't know what Princess Wucheng thinks?" Is it the daughter of a scholarly family? , This speech is full of literary spirit, and Su Lanzhi understands more and more why Emperor Wen likes this beautiful Guo.

Such a poetic and picturesque woman is still a well-read poet. Emperor Wen would be happy to talk to her, right?

"I don't have much talent, and I don't know much about these things. I read very few poems, so I'm afraid I can't say them!" Smiling, Su Lanzhi looked a little embarrassed, after all, she was from the Su family Yes, both Su Qinglan and Murong Yan caused a sensation in the capital at that time. Their daughters, how could they not be so bad?

"Hehe, Princess Wucheng is self-effacing. A person like Princess Wucheng has a clear mind, and she has her own opinions in her heart. Why don't Princess Wucheng talk about it, so we can discuss it?" Look at Guo Meiren like this My son, I am afraid that Su Lanzhi is regarded as a bosom friend. Seeing that the other party is so enthusiastic about her, Su Lanzhi has a lot of vigilance in her heart, "Hehe, Guo Meiren is a talented woman with extraordinary intelligence. How can I Can it be compared? Guo Meiren must not embarrass me."

Su Lanzhi has already said this, and Guo Meiren will be a bit difficult to force others to say. Fortunately, Guo Meiren also knows that Su Lanzhi has made up her mind not to talk more this time, so she didn't force her, "Hehe, is Princess Wucheng Do you think I'm too abrupt, after all, we are not familiar with each other?"

"Hehe, Guo Meiren is serious. I'm just not good at directing legends." Talking to a person who doesn't really want to talk, and there are so many eyes watching there, Su Lanzhi will not give herself Looking for trouble.

No matter what purpose Guo Meiren has for her, she has to pay attention.

"Hehe, maybe Princess Wucheng thinks I'm too enthusiastic? It's just that Princess Wucheng may not understand. When I saw Princess Wucheng for the first time today, I felt like old friends at first sight, so I was inevitably a little anxious when I spoke. What I did wrong, I hope Princess Wucheng will forgive me." Su Lanzhi did not expect Guo Meiren to say this matter so directly, to be honest, since Guo Meiren appeared, Su Lanzhi has a kind of The feeling of deja vu, she even felt that this Guo Meiren gave her a very familiar feeling, but for a while, she couldn't remember who it was.

"Hehe, is it?" Before, I thought it was just my own illusion, but now that Guo Meiren said this, Su Lanzhi felt that there was something weird, but she couldn't tell what it was.

This feeling is really uncomfortable. Who is this Guo Meiren?What is the purpose of being close to yourself? [

"Isn't that right? When I saw Princess Wucheng today, I felt very kind, so I inevitably wanted to get close to her. I just offended Princess Wucheng, and I hope that Princess Wucheng will not be offended." With a little apology in his eyes, Guo The beauty looked at Su Lanzhi sincerely, as if she had found a confidant. If it wasn't for the weird feeling in her heart, Su Lanzhi almost thought that the other party was real.

"Why would I be offended?" She smiled, Su Lanzhi would definitely not offend Guo Meiren.Don't say that the other party is the woman that Emperor Wen now favors, even if the other party is a beauty, Su Lanzhi doesn't want to be troublesome, so she can't easily offend her.

You must know that the person next to the pillow is the easiest to influence a person's judgment.

"Princess Wucheng is fine if I don't blame her. It's just that I see that Princess Wucheng is different from others and makes people feel very kind. I want to be friends with Princess Wucheng. Can Princess Wucheng accept it?" See Su Lanzhi Without fussing, Guo Meiren felt relieved, and looked at Su Lanzhi with a smile. The smile was very warm, but Su Lanzhi always felt a little weird.

"The beauty is a noble lady, how dare I?" She joked with a smile, but in fact she refused in a disguised form. This Guo beauty was weird everywhere, and Su Lanzhi didn't dare to agree to the other party easily.

"Hehe, doesn't Princess Wucheng look down on me?" Seeing Su Lanzhi's tactful refusal, Guo Meiren continued to work hard, as if she liked Su Lanzhi very much, and wanted to get in touch with Su Lanzhi, which made Su Lanzhi feel more and more nervous Feeling something is wrong, "Your Majesty is serious." Although she is a princess, she is different from these concubines. She never wants to participate in the battle in the harem, so no matter who she is, she will stay far away. Just keep your distance.

The person in front of her is obviously a trouble, so she won't be so stupid.

"Princess Wucheng, you..." I still wanted to say something, but the queen saw Su Lanzhi and Guo Meiren talking all the time, and she was not very happy, so she interrupted, "Hehe, Laner, what are you talking about with Guo Meiren? What about the beautiful scenery, you don’t see it? Come and tell me, what’s interesting?”

"Hehe, empress empress, this concubine just wants to ask Princess Wucheng what kind of chrysanthemum she likes! It's nothing!" Guo Meiren responded quickly, and smiled back at the queen. The queen naturally didn't believe Guo Meiren's words. "Oh, is that so? I'm curious, what do Lan'er and Guo Meiren like? Lan'er, can you tell me?" The queen smiled, but these words were to verify Guo Meiren's words. , Guo Meiren didn't panic, she just looked at the queen, and said first, "Return to the queen's words, today's chrysanthemum is so beautiful, I'm dazzled by looking at it, and it's very good for me, but the chrysanthemum is so beautiful. My concubine likes this orange calendula the most, it looks like that lantern, but it’s pretty.” Guo Meiren still didn’t forget to look at the brightly blooming calendula when she was talking, her eyes made her like it .

"Hehe, since you like it, the marigolds in the imperial garden are much better. I know you like these flowers and plants, and you also like Danqing, reciting poems and painting on weekdays. You have always liked these elegant things. This palace will let you transplant some calendula to you, so that you will be happy when you see each other every day." After the queen's words, no one thought that Guo Meiren said he liked calendula, and the queen would give it to you. Yes, everyone suddenly felt a little unbelievable.

Queen, what does this mean?
