Yongning Palace.

Acuo came sooner or later, but as soon as she appeared, the eyes of the concubines present fell on her.

Those gazes with inquiry, envy and jealousy were like sharp light knives, which wanted to dismantle her and dismember her, and clearly analyze them.

There were also people who took the initiative to talk to her, such as Min Cairen and Wu Changzai, who always carried a little temptation in their words, and deliberately or unintentionally brought the conversation to Zichen Palace.

Before, Acuo would not have hidden himself and would answer questions and answer questions.

But before leaving, Aunt An Xiu specifically explained that you should avoid talking in the palace in a simple and profound way, and you can't learn to do Tai Chi and go around, and just laugh without saying anything.

Acuo felt that what Aunt An Xiu said made sense, so she smiled slightly when facing Min Cairen and Wu Changzai.

Seeing that she kept silent, Min Cairen was a little unhappy and frowned and complained, "My beauty Shen, do you look down on us unpopular people?

Liu Erke and I have always regarded you as friends."

Acuo blinked his clear eyes and said softly, "I don't have one."

"Then we chat with you, you don't even talk to you..." Min Cairen pouted and hit Wu Changzai beside him with his elbow, "Liu'er, do you think so?"

She's too boring."

Wu Chang nodded timidly, "Yes, yes, beautiful man Shen, we all entered the palace together. You are more lucky than us. You have been lucky enough to meet His Majesty several times... but don't alienate us because of this..."

Seeing them singing and reconcile, Acuo pondered for a moment and looked up and said, "I'm for your own good."

Min Cairen and Wu Changzai, "?"

Acuo said loudly, "Your Majesty doesn't like others asking about him.

If he knows that you ask me about the Holy Will, we will all be in trouble."

Her serious look made Min Cairen and others beat her up.

After a moment, Min Cairen squeezed out an awkward smile and said panickedly, "No, we just chatted with you for a few casual words, and asked about the Shengyi wherever we were.

There is nothing, please don’t get me wrong.”

Just then, the sound of Zhao Fei's arrival sounded in the hall, and Min Cairen quickly pulled Wu Changzai back to their own position.

Chu Xianxian, who was sitting in the slanted upper position, saw the scene in her eyes, and a sarcastic coldness raised her beautiful red lips.

Now it seems that this beautiful lady Shen is not only not stupid, but is also very smart.

Sometimes a stupid method can actually work strangely?

For example, she sent a bucket of fish to attract His Majesty's attention before, and for example, she waited hard in front of the Qinzheng Hall until dark to attract His Majesty's love... She had underestimated her before.

Concubine Zhao, dressed in gorgeous palace clothes, sat upright on her head, and the concubines stood up to pay their respects, "I am the concubine and the concubine, and I will pay my respects to Concubine Zhao, and I will be blessed with you."

"Sit down, all sisters."

After not seeing each other for half a month, Concubine Zhao was as beautiful as before, but there were fewer hairpins and rings on her hair bun, which was not as elegant and luxurious as last time.

She looked around calmly, and when her eyes fell on Acuo, she couldn't help but stop for a little longer.

But not long after, she looked away and said lightly, "You have been in the palace for half a month, and I want to be able to adapt to life in the palace.

During these days, my ears were very quiet, and it can be seen that all my sisters know the rules and etiquette, which is very good..."

Concubine Zhao slowly praised it, and then changed the subject and said, "Recently, the floods in Yuzhou have severely severed, and countless people are unable to feed and are displaced.

Your Majesty is worried and hard at night because of this matter. We concubines in the harem are supported by all the people. Although we cannot come forward to provide relief to the victims, we should do what we can and share our worries for you."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience looked at Concubine Zhao.

"This palace decided that starting tomorrow, the cost of the harem will be reduced by half.

Do you guys have any objections?”

Concubine Zhao said lightly, but her tone had an undisputed aura.

"..." The audience looked at each other in silence.

After a while, several concubines with higher positions stood up to discuss, "Empress Zhao is kind and kind, so I should follow the empress's wishes and dare not make any difference."

The concubines at high positions had no objection, so the concubines at low positions naturally did not dare to say more, and they all quickly agreed.

For a moment, the entire Yongning Palace was filled with joy.

Acuo had long wanted to do something for the people affected by the disaster, but now he heard the matter of shortening the cost by Empress Zhao, so he naturally agreed 100%.

She looked up at the noble and quiet woman at the seat. Faced with the flattery of others, her face did not change at all... Zhao Fei's appearance always reminded Acuo of the Bodhisattvas offered to the Buddhist temple.

The face is quiet, the eyebrows are gentle, the eyes are half closed, a little quiet, a little compassionate, a little holy, and a little transcendent to seeing through the world.

Perhaps she had been looking at Concubine Zhao for a long time, Concubine Zhao moved her long eyelashes slightly, and she raised her eyes and looked at her.

The eyes were facing each other, one was embarrassed to be caught, and the other was calm and calm with a bit of deep meaning.

After sitting down for another cup of tea, everyone also dispersed.

When I walked out of Yongning Palace, I don’t know who muttered in a low voice, "We have shortened our expenses just now, so how can we live this life?" A stone caused a thousand waves, and the harmonious atmosphere of being devoted to serving the people just now collapsed.

Most of them are women who are kept in the deep boudoir, with shallow eyes and only one acre of land in front of them, so how can they care about the lives and deaths of the people thousands of miles away?

Asuo listened to their low complaints, his brows frowned, and he wanted to refute a few words, but he still held back - it would be meaningless to win by verbalizing.

He simply took Mu Qing and left directly, without seeing him.

Mu Qing clearly noticed that his master was in a bad mood. While following her steps, he asked tentatively, "Are you bothering about shortening the cost?"

At this time, it was already a long way from Yongning Palace. Acuo said "hmm" in a depressed voice, and then said to himself, "Empress Zhao was originally kind, but why did she become a villain who seeks fame and pleases His Majesty when she comes to their mouths?

Our food and clothing in the palace are so much better than outside, and it doesn’t matter if we reduce it a little… Forget it, if you can’t control them, I will do it myself.”

Seeing her sulking look, Mu Qing hurriedly coaxed, "I'm kind-hearted, I won't be angry anymore."

Acuo responded in a low mood. Everyone said that ghosts and monsters are terrible. If she wants to see, some people are not as good as ghosts.

Mu Qing knew that the little master was still upset. When she walked to the Imperial Garden, she suggested, "My master, this sun is so good, why not go to the Imperial Garden to relax?

I heard that Luocheng paid tribute to many gorgeous peony flowers a few days ago, and there are many varieties."

Acuo thought for a while and nodded, "Okay, go and have a look."

Anyway, I'm idle.

The imperial garden is huge, with flowers, strange stones and cypresses, and vines, embellishing the entire yard with a full of fun.

After walking around a tall ancient cypress and walking deep into the garden, I saw beautiful peony flowers, gorgeous and fragrant, brilliant and fragrant, and a pot of thousands of snow, snow-white and bright as big as a bowl, which is a rare product.

When I was tired of walking, I let Mu Qing help him to Jiangxue Pavilion on the high place to rest.

Sitting in the pavilion, the green shade was clear, and the breeze blew on my face, bringing the fragrance of flowers.

Looking at the beautiful scenery in front of him, Acuo's mood gradually became more relaxed.

She took a deep breath of fresh air, feeling her whole body loose.

This long-lost sense of comfort made her eyes lit up. After looking at the imperial garden carefully, she suddenly realized that this was an excellent Feng Shui treasure land, which easily gathered spiritual energy.

"Today is the first day of the New Year..." Acuo murmured, his eyes brighter and brighter.

Their small mountain spirits are cultivated by sucking the spiritual energy of mountains, rivers, sun and moon.

And the fifteenth day of the lunar month is the day with the most spiritual energy in January.

It seems that I can come here tonight to have a good meal!

When Mu Qing heard her murmur, he wondered, "Yes, today is the first day of the New Year, what's wrong?"
