Chapter 121
The imperial guards quickly brought the wine, and Qiu Lian looked worried as she watched Meng Xiaoshu carry the jars of good wine into the room.

"Miss Meng, is this wine really used to make flower dew?" she asked.

Meng Xiaocom nodded solemnly: "Of course."

No wonder, of course the wine is for drinking, but the person drinking is not her, but Mu Lao.

Seeing the sunset, Qiu Lian went out to serve Concubine Lan Gui for dinner, and Meng Xiaosuo was about to enter the Linglong space, but two women suddenly came to the room.

These two wives have always been by her side these days, one surnamed Sun and the other surnamed Tang, both of whom are Concubine Lan Gui's confidantes.

A few days ago, she had a whim to compete with the imperial guards, but Mrs. Tang couldn't do anything to stop her, so she was so angry that she pointed fingers and scolded Huai.Meng Xiaosuo didn't care about her, at first she didn't take it seriously, but when she got into a fight with a guard and heard her bluffing, she suddenly became impatient, and simply kicked the embroidered shoes on her feet Fly, right on the forehead of Mrs. Tang.

Although Meng Xiaosuo's strength was not great, it was not too weak. She knocked Mrs. Tang dizzy, gnashed her teeth, and a bump the size of a fried egg swelled on her forehead.

Even if she knew she did it on purpose, Mrs. Tang couldn't do anything. After all, she was a servant, and she was guilty of a serious crime.Besides, the marriage between Meng Xiaoshu and Yin Yichan was bestowed by the emperor.In the eyes of discerning people, Mrs. Tang belonged to Concubine Lan, while Meng Xiaosu belonged to the Emperor. Everyone knew which of the two was more unoffensive.

Tang Pozi herself also knows this truth.

Can't afford it, can't you hide it?
Therefore, ever since that time, Meng Xiaoshu will never appear more than ten meters away from her.

As for why she came to Meng Xiaoshu's room at this time, it is worth investigating.

Meng Xiaoshu poured herself a cup of tea, and asked while drinking, "Grandma Tang, is the bag on your head any better?"

Mrs. Tang snorted and remained silent. The bag was between her eyebrows, so it was obvious whether it was okay or not. Meng Xiaosuo asked this question only to embarrass her.

Mrs. Tang was embarrassed, and Mrs. Sun said: "Miss Meng, the imperial concubine please go over."

"Oh? What's the matter?" Meng Xiaocom asked.

"It's not necessarily a matter of looking for you, maybe the imperial concubine just cares about your current situation." Mrs. Sun had something to say, and she looked at the jars of wine in the corner.

"My current situation is very good." Meng Xiaocom put down the teacup in her hand and raised her eyebrows.

"Even if it's very good, I'll trouble you to go there." Grandma Sun said again.

"Okay." Meng Xiaosu stood up and followed her into the hall.

After bringing him over, Mrs. Tang found an excuse and slipped away. She didn't even want to look at Meng Xiaosuo.

Concubine Lan is wearing a light purple top and a beige skirt today. I don't know if it's because she has been combed too much by Meng Xiao recently. There seem to be a few more fine lines around her eyes, and the white hair on her temples is also more eye-catching. Holding an embroidery needle, holding a flower frame in his right hand, the embroidered pomegranate has many seeds, which should be used to make a sachet for Yin Yichan or Meng Xiaosuo.

It's just that the hand holding the needle has not moved for a long time, and a pair of extremely beautiful eyes are quietly staring out of the window, without focus.

"The imperial concubine." Meng Xiaosuo saluted calmly.

Concubine Lan Gui came back to her senses, and continued to embroider the red pomegranate with her head down, she didn't look up at Meng Xiaosuo for a long time.

Just when Meng Xiaoshu wondered whether Concubine Lan Gui was too old and her ears were not working well, Concubine Lan Gui suddenly said slowly: "I heard that how many jars of wine did you ask the imperial guards to bring today?"

"Yes." Meng Xiaocom nodded.

There's nothing to hide about this kind of thing.If she wanted to hide it, she wouldn't ask Li San to buy wine in front of everyone.

"Do you like drinking very much?" Concubine Lan Gui then asked.

Her tone is always lazy, and the corners of her eyes and brows are often tired, as if raising her eyelids to look at the people around her is an extremely hard work.Only when outsiders were present, did her expression suddenly change, becoming smiling and kind.

However, Meng Xiaosuo was more used to her appearance at the moment. To Meng Xiaosuo, real indifference was much more pleasing to the eye than a fake smile.

"I don't drink," she said.

"Then why do you ask the guards to buy wine?" Concubine Lan Gui changed the subject and said sharply, "Don't you know that His Majesty hates people who drink too much? Or do you want to embarrass me by knowingly committing a crime?"

Finally, unable to hold back anymore, he was willing to tell the truth.

Thinking of Concubine Lan Gui's soft voice and false tolerance these days, it finally came to an end, Meng Xiao couldn't help raising her eyebrows, with a faint smile on her face: "Why did your mother say that?"

"Could it be that what your empress said was wrong? What you did was to embarrass your embarrassment!" said the grandma.

"Is there?" Meng Xiaocomo thought about it seriously, with an innocent face, "I just want to do more things I like before I get married."

Grandma Sun didn't understand what she meant for a while.

Not only Grandma Sun, but even Concubine Lan Gui didn't understand: "I ask you, what do you mean?"

"Women live for others in this life. Before they are sensible, they obey their parents. After marriage, they take care of their husbands and children. Only the short period of time after they are sensible and before marriage belongs to themselves. After I understood this truth, I just want to do more things that I can't do in the future, so as not to regret it." Meng Xiaosuo said, and took a serious look at Concubine Lan Gui.

"Your Majesty, this man speaks so arrogantly! You can tell the Emperor to annul this marriage!" Grandma Sun leaned into Concubine Lan's ear, lowered her voice, and said eccentrically.

Concubine Lan Gui frowned slightly, and waved her hand, signaling Meng Xiaosuo to continue talking.

She came from a famous family and was raised in her boudoir since she was a child. She was married to Emperor Yin when he was twelve years old. At that time, Emperor Yin was only a prince.Thinking about it carefully, my own life trajectory is actually similar to that of Meng Xiaosuo.

Grandma Sun has never married, so she naturally doesn't understand the bitterness of it.

After getting married, you have to think about your husband's family in everything, let alone having children.A heart is only as big as a fist, and if you pretend to be someone else, you can't pretend to be yourself. Concubine Lan Gui understood this truth.

Meng Xiaosuo is about to marry and become a wife, so I'm afraid she will walk the same path in the future.If it was because he wanted to grasp the last sliver of freedom that he was so insolent these days, it would make sense.

Concubine Lan Gui was dubious about Meng Xiaosuo's words.

If it was true, she would be satisfied in her heart, after all, it could be heard from the words that Meng Xiaocom was actually afraid in her heart, not as indifferent as she showed.

Fear is her weapon against others, and only those who are afraid can be easily controlled by her.All along, she was worried that Meng Xiaocom would be difficult to handle, but now that she knew Meng Xiaocom's psychology, she suddenly felt much more at ease.

"You really think so?" she asked.

Sensing the change in her tone, Grandma Sun looked suspicious.

Meng Xiaocom nodded: "Why should I lie to you?"

Concubine Lan Gui was noncommittal, and said: "After passing the door, take care of your husband and teach your children well. Chan'er will give you the opportunity to practice martial arts. In the next few days, you should stop fighting with those guards. As for drinking, it is absolutely forbidden."

"I never drink." Meng Xiaoshu shook his head.

In her previous life, she did drink, but in this life, she never drank at all.

"Then why did you ask the imperial guards for wine?" Concubine Lan Gui was a little annoyed.Meng Xiaosuo's light words made the sympathy in her heart disappear in the blink of an eye.She suddenly felt that she was like a monkey being teased by others - she asked for wine instead of drinking, could this lie be any worse?
"I want to develop a flower dew that can make wrinkles disappear, but it has not been successful. I suddenly had a dream last night. In the dream, someone told me that I only need to add a small amount of rice wine to the flower dew to get the desired effect. That's why I asked the guards to get some wine." Meng Xiaosuo made up casually.

"Can it make wrinkles disappear?" Concubine Lan Gui's heart was moved by this sentence, "After adding rice wine, can you develop it?"

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she realized that her tone was too eager, she couldn't help but cleared her throat, and retracted her slightly stretched neck.

Seeing that the annual draft is about to start again, many beautiful and young women will flood into the palace, and every one of them is the opponent of Concubine Lan Gui.Concubine Ruolan is still young, so she may be able to compete with them, but now, all she can do is not to compete with others, to show virtuous and virtuous, and silently hope that Emperor Yin will linger in the delicate flowers. When I feel a little tired, I can think of her red maple leaf.

Doing this seems to be quite useful, but who knows if a method that is useful for a while will be useful for a lifetime?
Although she gave birth to Yin Yichan back then, even though she is quite favored now, her heart is always restless.If the appearance of the young age can be restored, most of this peace of mind will disappear.

She knew that her appearance was much younger than other women in their forties.It's just that every time I sit in front of the mirror, the wrinkles on the corners of the eyes and brows can't be ignored, no matter how much makeup is used to cover it up, they are very conspicuous.

Even though she tried her best to restrain herself, the desire in her eyes could not escape Meng Xiaocom's eyes.

"That's right, I have developed it." Meng Xiaocom took out a bottle of flower dew from her pocket, "But I haven't tried it yet, so I don't know how effective it will be."

"How to test?" Concubine Lan Gui hurriedly asked.

"Every time I make a kind of toilet water, I will try it on my face and hands to see how it works. But I can't try this bottle."

Meng Xiaoshao shook the bottle, and Concubine Lan Gui's heart also shook, she wondered, "Why can't I try it?"

"Because I don't have any wrinkles on my face." Meng Xiaocom said.

Indeed, there are no wrinkles, even if you apply it, you can't see the effect.

Concubine Lan Gui's gaze shifted to the ancient Grandma Sun: "Grandma Sun, I can only trouble you and try it for me."

"This..." Grandma Sun was a little hesitant, she was not unwilling to obey Concubine Lan, but she was afraid that Meng Xiaoshuang's dew would be used against her on purpose.
