Chapter 67
Aunt Wang and Aunt Ding quickly became friends.The two often visit each other. You give me a pair of socks, and I give you an embroidered handkerchief. They have a close relationship and are as close as sisters.

When Gu Qinglian heard the news Ruyi inquired, she only smiled lightly: "They are as close as sisters, what does it have to do with me?"

Ruyi was completely speechless.The two aunts made it clear that they wanted to join forces to deal with Gu Qinglian, but she was a good old man and didn't have any precautions.

Mrs. Shen has not even seen Gu Qinglian's face now. In the past, she used to be quiet in the morning and evening, and kept Gu Qinglian to eat with her every now and then.

Now he just raised his eyelids and gave up coldly.

Gu Qinglian was not angry either, and lived her own life in the yard.The days were long in summer and there was nothing to entertain her, so she began to tinker with flowers and plants.I found some vanilla seeds and planted them myself, loosened the soil and watered them, and I was very busy.

It seemed that only in this way could the figure be left far behind.

It's a pity that within seven days of peace, an imperial decree came from the Xishan Palace, asking Gu Qinglian to go to the palace to face the saint.

It turned out that Gu Qinglian's aunt, Gu Diejing, also went to Xishan with Yujia to escape the summer heat. When she saw Shen Congjia, she thought of her niece, so she begged the emperor for grace and told Gu Qinglian to go to Xishan.

Foreign relatives must follow the etiquette system when entering the palace, and the natal family is not something that the noble concubine in the palace can see whenever he wants.But the palace is different, there are not so many rules, and Gu Guifei asked her niece to accompany her, which is not considered as exceeding the rules.

After receiving the imperial decree, Mrs. Shen gave Gu Qinglian a few words in a mild manner, and then ordered her to pack her bags and go to Xishan with the palace servants tomorrow.

Hearing that Gu Qinglian was going to the Xishan Palace, Aunt Wang and Aunt Ding's eyes turned red with envy.

Who didn't know that when Shen Congjia was in Xishan, Gu Qinglian would go there and pamper her for a few days, fearing that she would be pregnant when she came back.

Gu Qinglian's face was not happy.In the past few days, she tried her best to sweep Shen Congjia's shadow out of her mind. She just got some grades and was about to meet him again. She felt 1 depressed.She was afraid that if she saw Shen Congjia, all her efforts would be in vain.

In the afternoon, I tidied up with Ruyi and Bihen. Both Ruyi and Bihen were delighted: "Young Mistress, the imperial concubine really loves you. I heard that the Xishan Palace is very interesting. The scenery is beautiful, cool and pleasant, and there are not so many rules. I can live there. It’s been a very pleasant few days!”

"En." Gu Qinglian responded with a few words, and was about to change the topic when Bixiang preached at the door: "Young Mistress, Aunt Wang and Aunt Ding are here."

Aunt Wang and Aunt Ding came in with smiles, both of them were wearing moon white thin embroidered hibiscus shirts, they looked beautiful and beautiful, like sister flowers.

Gu Qinglian glanced at them, ordered Ruyi to serve tea, and then said directly: "The two aunts are here?"

She asked this bluntly, with a bit of impatience in her bones, but Aunt Wang and Aunt Ding were not annoyed. Aunt Ding took a small white jade box from the maidservant and handed it to Ruyi: "Young Mistress, I heard that there are mosquitoes in Xishan Mountain. Many, this box is a plaster for reducing swelling and pain, it is the most effective, you take it with you, it may be useful."

Aunt Wang also took a fan from the maidservant: "This fan is embroidered by the concubine herself. The summer is long, so holding it in your hand can cool you off."

None of them were expensive, so Gu Qinglian took them away.

After thinking about it, he said to Ruyi: "In my dressing table, there is a rosewood wood openwork box with gold and silver, you can take it and give it to Aunt Ding. There is also a pair of green sachets beside the box, take it to Aunt Wang. "

Aunt Ding gave her a box of plaster, she gave Aunt Ding a box of ginseng nourishing pills, Aunt Wang gave her a fan, and she gave Aunt Wang a pair of sachets.quite appropriate.

Just after finishing speaking, Bihen asked in the corridor: "Young Mistress, do you want to bring those newly made soft-smoke shirts with you? Also, I'm afraid you should also bring the dressing utensils that Young Mistress used to use?"

"No need, no need, just stay for a few days, why bring so many things!" Gu Qinglian walked over and pointed to Bihen: "Bring four sets of clothes, just enough to change and wash. Except for a few sets of face masks, everything else should be kept as simple as possible."

She didn't want to bring too many things, it would be troublesome to pack and wear.The weather is hot, so you don't need to bring makeup powder or anything.Just ask your aunt to borrow some before meeting the saint, she must have some.

Aunt Wang and Aunt Ding accepted the reward from Ruyi, and seeing Gu Qinglian still standing at the door, they smiled and left.

Things were almost ready, Gu Qinglian stood at the door for a while, her hair was a little wet with sweat, she asked Ruyi to help her remove the hairpin and wait for her to take a bath.

Ruyi opened the dressing table and put the jewels on her head into the box, Gu Qinglian glanced at the dressing table unintentionally, her voice changed in shock: "Ruyi, where is the lacquered gold box I put here?"

It's terrible, the box containing the aphrodisiac pills has disappeared!

Ruyi took out a box of lacquered gold from the dressing table, and asked curiously, "Isn't it?"

Gu Qinglian was puzzled: "Isn't this a box of gold and silver?"

Ruyi was also confused: "Young Mistress, this is made of clay gold!"

Gu Qinglian was dumbfounded!As a modern person, she can't tell the ancient crafts clearly, and confuses gold and silver with clay gold!Ruyi took the box containing the pills to Aunt Ding!
How can this be good?

Gu Qinglian was so anxious that she couldn't imagine what would happen if Auntie Ding took that pill as a ginseng nourishing pill!At that time, she just smelled the smell of the pills, and she had dreams again and again!

"Young Mistress, what's the matter?" Ru saw that her face turned pale with anxiety, and she was very puzzled.

"It's okay, you can go down!" Gu Qinglian could only knock out her teeth and swallow her blood now!There is no reason to ask for something given away, right?

I just hope that Auntie Ding will be wary of her and not eat the food she gave her! ——This possibility is still very high!

Thinking of this, Gu Qinglian simply let go of her thoughts.After taking a hot bath, I fell asleep early.Tomorrow I have to walk all day, and I am still very tired in the carriage.

Early the next morning, the palace sent a carriage to the Shen family to pick up Gu Qinglian.The carriage is spacious and comfortable, with a heat-insulating velvet cushion and bamboo curtains on the outside, and high-quality bamboo seats inside.Some people came to change the ice basin on the way, and it wasn't too uncomfortable to sit in the carriage.

After a bumpy day, when the sun was about to set, we finally arrived at the Xishan Palace.

There were eunuchs and maids waiting at the entrance of the palace, and a person who looked like an aunt in charge came over and saluted with a smile, and said: "Madam Shen is here, the imperial concubine has been asking for a day!"

Gu Qinglian asked Ruyi to give a bag of broken gold to the aunt in charge, and wiped a jade bracelet from her wrist: "I'm making aunt tired."

A young eunuch next to the aunt in charge also smiled and said: "Not only the imperial concubine is worried about it, but General Shen has also asked it several times!"

Gu Qinglian rewarded the little eunuch as usual, the smile on her face did not change at all, but there was still a little ripple in her heart.

Sitting in a sedan chair, I arrived at Yuyuan Palace where Concubine Gu was staying. The sun was covered with thick shade and the cool breeze was blowing all the way, which was very refreshing.

When Gu Diejing saw Gu Qinglian, his eye circles turned red, and he pulled Gu Qinglian's hand up and down to look him up and down: "Good Lian'er, you've become more and more beautiful! The last time you came into the palace with your mother, you still combed her hair." What about the little girl with the double bun!"

In a blink of an eye, the youngest niece also married into a wife, no longer the pampered daughter in her boudoir.Gu Diejing looked at the bright and tall Gu Qinglian, and felt deeply moved.

Gu Qinglian saw that this aunt was born gracefully and luxuriously, she was well-mannered, and she was very affectionate to her, so she felt a little close in her heart, and accompanied Gu Diejing to talk about family matters. Gu Diejing heard that she hadn't returned for a long time. Looking at her from her natal family, the look in her eyes became more pity: "Lian'er, you have been married into the Shen family for almost a year. You have no children, so you will inevitably be looked down upon by your in-law's family. If you want to go back to your natal family, I'm afraid it will not be easy."

Hearing what Gu Diejing said, Gu Qinglian felt a little embarrassed.

She didn't go back to her mother's house, not because Mrs. Shen made things difficult for her, but because she was afraid of showing her feet.Besides, she really has no feelings for the Gu family.

Gu Diejing misunderstood Gu Qinglian's expression, and hurriedly patted her hand to comfort her: "It's okay, your husband is also in Xishan, these days, you should spend more time together. This place is no different than the capital city, and there are not so many details. Just relax." In a good mood, stay here for a few days. Maybe there will be good news after I go back."

Gu Qinglian was completely speechless.Everyone was worried about her stomach and couldn't wait to push her onto Shen Congjia's bed.

She just wanted to live a clean life for a few days, why is it so difficult!
Gu Diejing saw that Gu Qinglian was not in high spirits, and thought that she was tired from the long journey, so he smiled and said: "I've tidied up your yard for you, it's next to my palace, you live first, the emperor takes Shen The major general has gone hunting and will come back at night. Tonight they are going to cook venison on a bonfire! Then I will send a maid to call you!"

After finishing speaking, she asked the maid to carry two large food boxes and sent Gu Qinglian back to her yard.

Ruyi and Bihen waited for Gu Qinglian to take a bath, and the sky was getting dark.Gu Qinglian picked up some cakes and ate some melons and fruits, but she didn't feel sleepy at all, she lay lazily on the imperial concubine's couch in the porch with her long hair blown in the evening breeze.

Xishan is indeed much cooler than Beijing.Without Shen Congjia, this would have been a perfect trip.

Just as he was thinking, he heard the sound of horses' hooves outside the yard, and the shrill voice of the little eunuch shouted: "The emperor returns to the palace!"

Ruyi and Bihen had never seen the emperor before, so they were very curious, desperately standing on tiptoe to look out of the courtyard, wanting to see the true face of the real dragon emperor.

"What kind of feet are you standing on! You'll see it in a while!" Gu Qinglian smiled at Ruyi and Bihen, but her ears couldn't help searching for a sound.

However, there was a lot of noise outside, and the men's laughter intertwined into a ball, and it was impossible to tell who was who.

After sitting for a while, Gu Qinglian's hair had just dried when Gu Guifei sent someone over to call her.

"Young Mistress Shen, the bonfire has already been lit. The Imperial Concubine invites you to go over and taste the wild game." The aunt in charge is very considerate: "My Majesty has ordered you to dress up well, and don't lose your manners in front of the imperial court."

The aunt in charge said as she opened the wooden box in her hand.
