MTL - To Save the Female Supporting Role As My Duty-Chapter 220v2 Save Gong Douwen's blackened female supporting role (2)
The wooden signs on the table kept colliding, making crisp sounds, which seemed particularly abrupt in this quiet atmosphere.
Except for Song Lingshu, the other three present were like puppets on strings, fumbling at the cards stiffly, but full of thoughts, wondering what she meant by arranging this game.
"Since none of you know it, I'll teach you." Song Lingshu said with a smile, "Let's identify the cards first."
Anyway, they couldn't guess her purpose, so the three of them could only wait and see what happened, listened carefully to Song Lingshu's teaching, and quickly recognized the cards and rules.
The next step is actual combat. The three played very slowly. They had to struggle for a long time, but they didn't dare to ask the rules any more. They were scratching their heads and scratching their heads.
"We are mainly studying today, not about winning or losing, so let me show you your cards and teach you how to play them?" Song Lingshu asked next player Shu Wan.
"Okay." Shu Wan let her come over to look at the cards with a sigh of relief.
After reading it, Song Lingshu told her what cards should be played, and then turned to Concubine Zhao on the opposite side to talk about the cards, and finally walked to A Xian, took a look, and said curiously: "Hey, you are about to go crazy, don't you know how to play?" beat?"
"No." Ah Xian replied.
"Then how did you play your cards?"
"It depends on your mood, and..." Ah Xian touched the chain of the **** image around his neck, "God blesses you."
Song Lingshu: "...Actually, I would rather call it a novice halo."
In the evening, the three of them finally figured out a little bit of the doorway, so they had to go back.
Ah Xian and Shu Wan happened to be assigned to be neighbors in the same palace, and they went back together, but Concubine Zhao stayed behind and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, do you have the intention of getting close to them by calling them here? Where does Concubine Zhang know?"
"No, I just want to have some fun, otherwise it would be boring, right?" Song Lingshu said slowly.
"Yes..." Concubine Zhao only felt that there was something in her words, and after thinking for a long time, she could only think that she didn't want her to know her plan, so she didn't dare to ask any more questions, and brought up another matter, " By the way, Concubine Li has been acting arrogant recently because she is pregnant with a dragon child."
"Dragon son? You didn't even give birth, so how do you know it's Longzi's?" Song Lingshu asked curiously.
"She asked the sorceress to tell the fortune in private. It is said that the sorceress is famous for being accurate. Many wives of high officials and nobles in Beijing have asked her to do the fortune telling. It’s just turned upside down.” Concubine Zhao said in a low voice, “Secretly find someone to calculate the dragon fetus, do you need to let the emperor know? I can do it without anyone noticing.”
"No need, if the calculation is correct, the emperor will only be happier. If it is not accurate, she will be very angry when she is born and finds that her hope has been shattered. Why do we need to intervene?" Song Lingshu picked up the teacup and used The tea cover flicked the tea leaves, took two sips, and seeing that she had no intention of leaving, he asked, "Do you have anything else to do?"
"Your Majesty, please help me." Concubine Zhao suddenly knelt on the ground and wiped her tears with a handkerchief, "The emperor has not been to my house for a long time, and I have been in the palace for two years, but my stomach has not moved at all. ..."
"Then I can't help it. I can't be tied to you by the emperor." Song Lingshu said helplessly.
"Isn't the little **** who is in charge of the green head card one of yours?" Concubine Zhao hinted.
Song Lingshu thought for a long time, and said: "Alright, the emperor has been going to the concubine's place these days, it's time to change someone, lest he get bored."
Concubine Zhao immediately showed a smile: "Thank you, Ma'am, I got some new bird's nests, and I will send them to you tomorrow."
"That's good, that's good, I can have this." Song Lingshu was already greedy, the palace bird's nest must be worth a lot of money.
After sending Concubine Zhao away, she walked around a few steps and asked the servant girl, "Do we still have bird's nest in our warehouse?"
"No more, ma'am, your sister-in-law gave birth a few days ago, and you sent them all to the Yang Mansion."
"What about other food? Forget it, take me to the warehouse to see for myself."
She went into the warehouse to check for a while, then sighed: "Why are you so poor? Apart from silk and satin jewellery, there is nothing to eat?"
"The emperor hasn't been here for a long time, and all the rewards have gone to other people." The servant girl said unfairly.
"Forget it, there are so many jewelry and clothes, it's enough." She picked out, took out a piece of good material, put it aside, asked people to make clothes, and then went to eat, and summoned the father-in-law who was in charge of turning over green cards Come on, whisper a few words.
The **** wondered: "But Your Majesty has always only turned over the sign of Hefei and Empress. If you don't put it in, I'm afraid you will get angry."
"Just tell him that you and your concubine had menstruation, this time it's very serious, and your body is not very comfortable." Song Lingshu said.
"yes."
Don't look at the emperor going to the palace of his concubine every day, but in fact, he can only feast his eyes, and at the same time ask about the witchcraft in southern Xinjiang, and always ask Ah Xian about the way of immortality. Going early and going late is also because talking about these things of seeking immortality and medicine is not at all obsessed with beauty in the eyes of outsiders.
In the evening, the emperor went to Concubine Zhao's palace, and other people found out about this, which caused quite a stir in private.
"It must have been discussed by them!" Concubine Zhang threw the teacup out, and said furiously, "That **** is definitely going to win over the demon girl and put him in the position. Come on, prepare my clothes for me, and I will go tomorrow Greetings to the Queen Mother."
And Ah Xian and Shu Wan in Lingyun Palace were even more surprised, they walked in the yard after dinner, Shu Wan asked in a low voice: "Why did the Emperor go to Concubine Zhao today?"
A Xian said: "The people in the Queen's Palace brought me a message saying that I am not feeling well today."
"It seems that she really brought us there in the afternoon to help Concubine Zhao." Shu Wan shook her head, then smiled again, "But that's good too, you don't have to go to bed tonight."
"Well, no matter what, I'm quite grateful to the empress for today's matter." Ah Xian smiled happily, "Finally, I don't have to face him every day and tell him about southern Xinjiang. He is still always lewd. Squinting at me, why are you men from the Central Plains so lecherous, if this is in southern Xinjiang, few people would dare to look at me more."
Shu Wan chuckled happily, and said in a very low voice: "You dare to speak about that one behind your back, but don't say it in the future, so as not to be eavesdropped, and punish us for a big crime of disrespect, but you will lose your head." of."
Ah Xian felt a chill on the back of his neck, touched his neck, and said in frustration, "If our royal family didn't have a princess of the right age, I wouldn't have been sent here. Shu Wan, I really want to go back."
"I think so too." Shu Wan sighed.
The next day, the Empress Dowager suddenly summoned people from the harem nobles and above to the Compassion Palace.
"Usually it's only the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year that the empress would go to pay her respects, but today is only the fifth day, what happened?" Shu Wan asked curiously.
"I don't know, whatever you want." Ah Xian said.
"Sometimes I really envy your mentality." Shu Wan smiled.
The two came to the Palace of Compassion and Peace and stood at the back of the line. There were not enough seats, so they could only stand at the end.
The empress dowager was sitting in the main seat, with a solemn expression, but her eyes were very sharp. She looked around, and everyone dared not show their anger. She said slowly, "Is everyone here?"
Song Lingshu made an inventory. She glanced at all the beauties present one by one. It was really a feast for the eyes. Then she glanced at the last corner, and with a slightly curved mouth, she replied, "My queen, everyone is here."
The Empress Dowager nodded, first glanced at the noble concubine below, then turned her head and said to Song Lingshu: "You have already left everything in the harem to the decision, but you have to pay attention to some things, you are all the emperor's women, representing his face, You can't make him lose face."
"What the queen mother said is true." Song Lingshu agreed first, and then asked the real question, "What is it that disturbed you?"
"The Ai family heard that some of you here are not fully clothed, and they openly walk around in the harem, and they are not afraid of being laughed at." The queen mother said in a deep voice.
Everyone immediately guessed who she was talking about, and they all breathed a sigh of relief, and raised their heads one after another, with a mentality of watching the show.
Shu Wan's heart skipped a beat, she raised her eyes and glanced forward, noticing the smug look on Concubine Zhang Gui's face, she guessed who was provoking the conflict.
"Queen Mother, are you talking about Concubine He?" Song Lingshu asked bluntly.
The Queen Mother nodded.
"Concubine He is a saint. This is their custom in southern Xinjiang. It will be difficult to correct it for a while, but she respects you very much. No, I see that she specially wore our costumes to see you today?" Song Lingshu explain.
"Oh? Really?" The queen mother looked around, "Where is the concubine?"
Ah Xian walked out from behind the crowd, and everyone turned their heads to look at her in surprise.
I saw that what she was wearing today was not that fancy dress, but a well-regulated palace dress, her body was covered tightly, her hair was all coiled up, she looked like a lady from a great family.
"Ah Xian has met the Empress Dowager." Ah Xian committed himself to salute.
Seeing that she was indeed wearing palace clothes, the Queen Mother glanced at Concubine Zhang in a mild manner. Concubine Zhang held the chair tightly in her palm and glared at Song Lingshu.
Song Lingshu didn't even give her a look, and said with a smile: "The living habits of the queen mother and concubine are very different from ours. She has just entered the palace and has to slowly adapt. The emperor personally agreed to this, allowing her Wear your own clothes to show the demeanor of our great country, you were not there at the time, so you didn’t know about it.”
The empress dowager got a step up, so it's not good to make things worse, she just knocked a few words, and said: "Also, the harem must not be exclusively favored, empress, you have to let the emperor get even the rain and dew."
"Yes, my son must obey the will." Song Lingshu said.
"Okay, the Ai family is exhausted, let's all step back. Concubine Zhang Gui, you stay." The queen mother said sternly.
Concubine Zhang Guifei's face turned pale: "Yes."
The crowd came out in a single file, whispering to each other in groups of twos and threes.
Shu Wan and Ah Xian walked back together, and said in surprise, "I said why did you change your clothes specially today, maybe you were prepared for it?"
"No, I didn't know that this would happen either." Ah Xian said frankly, "This dress was sent over by a maid in the Queen's Palace early in the morning for me to wear it."
"Did she already know that the Queen Mother would make trouble?" Shu Wan asked in surprise.
"Maybe, anyway, she helped me again, and I will help her pray to the gods when I have time." Ah Xian said sincerely.
"Really? Then I'll thank you first." A faint laugh came from behind.
The two turned their heads and saw Song Lingshu walking over with the help of a maid, and hurriedly saluted.
"You two sisters don't need to be too polite. We just happened to be on the way, why don't we go together?" Song Lingshu asked.
Shu Wan showed embarrassment. Going back together in front of so many people would probably be regarded as part of the queen's party. She didn't want to participate in the struggle between the queen and the noble concubine, but the innocent Ah Xian had already agreed.
"Okay." Ah Xian said happily.
Shu Wan: "..."
On the way, Song Lingshu asked them if they remembered the rules of the horse crane, and invited them to play the horse crane together. A Xian was about to speak when Shu Wan secretly stopped him.
"Thank you for your kindness, but we have other things to do today, so please forgive us for not being able to accompany us." Shu Wan politely refused, and then thanked, "There is still today's matter, thank you for your help, if it weren't for the wedding ceremony you prepared Clothes, Ah Xian is afraid that he will be punished."
"You're too polite. I just prepared a set and sent it here because I saw that the fabric looks good, and it's going to be winter again soon, and I was worried that sister Ah Xian would not be able to withstand the severe cold." Song Lingshu laughed.
Shu Wan: "Is it really just a gift?"
"Of course! You have it too, but it's just not finished yet. I'll send it to you when it's done. Don't be jealous. I love each of your younger sisters equally." Song Lingshu said with a broad mind.
The corner of Shu Wan's mouth twitched: "..."
No, there must be something wrong, the more innocent the smile, the deeper the city will be! The smiling tiger is the scariest, this method is much better than the imperial concubine's!
"Thank you, ma'am, you are so kind." A Xian said.
Shu Wan: ...You idiot, you will be cheated by her sooner or later!
"You're fine, too. By the way, the Imperial Dining Room has sent some snacks. There are some snacks from southern Xinjiang. Would you like to eat some together?" Song Lingshu invited.
Shu Wan: "No—"
"Okay! Thank you, ma'am!" Ah Xian showed joy, "Does my majesty also like to eat food from southern Xinjiang?"
"I like it. As long as it's delicious, I don't care if it comes from southern Xinjiang or northern Xinjiang." Song Lingshu said.
Ah Xian laughed, and the man had already followed her away.
Shu Wan, who was lagging behind, pressed the center of her eyebrows with a headache, and followed up worriedly.
The three of them had breakfast in Kunning Palace, and just as Shu Wan was about to say goodbye, Concubine Zhao came in excitedly, but when she saw them, she immediately covered her mouth with a handkerchief, but there was still an unconcealable smile in her voice: " Empress, I've brought you bird's nest, try it when you have time."
Song Lingshu glanced at her with a smile, it seemed that last night had a good time, she turned her head and said, "Bird's nest, do you want to eat some together?"
Shu Wan: "No need, we were full just now—"
"Okay!" Ah Xian swallowed.
Shu Wan: "..."
Several people ate bird's nest together again. Concubine Zhao had a lot to say to Song Lingshu, but because there were other people around, she could only hold it in her heart.
Shu Wan also had a lot of questions in her heart, but she didn't dare to ask more, and could only hold back in her heart.
There was only Ah Xian, who didn't hold back anything, and soon became acquainted with Song Lingshu, exchanging experience on food in the two places.
"Is there anything else you need to do when you go back?" Song Lingshu asked.
Ah Xian: "Sleep."
"It's better to sleep on a horse-slinger? It happens that we are all together. Come, Cuiyu, get on the horse-slinger." Song Lingshu said immediately.
Shu Wan and Concubine Zhao: "??" Again? !
Ah Xian was very happy: "Good!"
