Adore Trick of Beauty

Originally, when she and Ya Jieyu were beauties, she was comparable to her sisters, but later, after Nie Wushuang gained Xiao Fengming's favor and was promoted to Jieyu, she only insisted on calling her "empress", and now they have the same status. Well, she naturally had to bring it up again.

Yajieyu looked at her gratefully: "Sister Nie..."

While they were talking, another chamberlain sang at the palace gate: "Your Highness, Concubine Shu, is here!"

Ya Jieyu was startled, and Nie Wushuang glanced at Jade Concubine and said with a smile: "Let's go together to welcome her."

Concubine Jade frowned calmly, and helped Yajieyu to go forward to greet her. After walking a few steps, she saw Concubine Shu walking towards her. She had dressed up specially today, and her face was even more charming. Charming. She was wearing a long haze-colored gauze dress with various birds embroidered on it, which was lifelike and very gorgeous.

She stepped forward affectionately, supported Yajieyu, and looked at her with a smile with a pair of beautiful almond eyes: "Yamei is indeed a blessed person."

"Back to the empress, my name should be Yajieyu now." The palace attendant said with a smile.

Concubine Shu opened her almond-shaped eyes, surprised and happy: "So the emperor has issued an imperial edict?" She clapped her hands: "I know how the emperor could let sister Ya suffer such injustice. Haha..."

Nie Wushuang looked at him with a smile on his face. Jade Concubine seemed to have the same thought. There was a sneer on her pale lips as she watched the concubine approaching with a lukewarm look. Concubine Shu brought valuable gifts, including various fashionable bracelets, earrings, jade articles, etc., as well as fine supplements, including a pound of blood swallows, ginseng and deer antlers, etc., which dazzled everyone.

Nie Wushuang knew that staying here at this time was nothing more than just watching the fun, so she quietly squeezed Jade Concubine's hand and walked out of Ziwei Palace.

Jade Concubine is now in better health. Apart from her pale face, she is no longer panting as before. Nie Wushuang held her hand, looked at the gorgeous sunset gradually emerging from the sky, and sighed: "Now that Sister Ya is pregnant, Sister Yu will have someone to rely on."

The Jade Concubine sneered: "Where is my turn? You didn't see Concubine Shu rushing over. Feng"

Nie Wushuang looked at her beautiful face and suddenly felt like she was a fallen person in the world. The two of them supported each other and walked through the path behind Ziwei Palace and found a quiet place to sit down.

Nie Wushuang pinched the handkerchief in his hand and suddenly asked: "Did Sister Yu just watch Sister Ya's child being taken away?"

Jade Concubine glanced at her and said slowly: "What else should I do? When Concubine Shu and I first entered the palace, she was very smart. She knew how to observe words and emotions, and how to assess the situation. That time when I was pregnant, it was When Concubine Yun was favoring her, she would not offend Concubine Yun despite her sisterly bond with Jinlan. Do you think it is easy for her to deal with such a person?"

Nie Wushuang looked at his shining silver armor, his beautiful eyes sparkling. Her rank is too low to compete with Concubine Shu. In fact, her status is not high among the many concubines of Xiao Fengming. There are more than a dozen concubines above her who are among the nine concubines. . But because they are not outstanding in talent and appearance, they are not conspicuous.

"There is always a way." Nie Wushuang raised his head and smiled lightly: "We can't just watch Sister Ya's child being taken away. I think that Sister Ya also hopes that her child will be raised by a reliable person. It’s up to you to educate them, right?”

Jade Concubine was shocked and let out a long sigh: "Let's fight with all our strength!"

…

Nie Wushuang returned to the "Yonghua Palace" and saw the eldest maid Qiu Meng standing next to the queen in his palace. Qiu Meng stepped forward and bowed warmly: "The Queen has come to invite Queen Jieyu to come and have tea."

Nie Wushuang was shocked, thinking that the queen sent someone to blame her. After all, Yamei was close to her and suddenly became pregnant. It must be because of her favor, but Qiu Meng didn't look like it. She stepped forward to help Qiu Meng up and said with a smile: "Okay, I will go right now. Miss Qiu Meng, please wait."

Nie Wushuang returned to the inner hall, changed clothes, and followed Qiu Meng to "Laiyi Palace". She comes to "Lai Yi Palace" almost every day, so she is naturally familiar with it. But as soon as she stepped into the Laiyi Palace today, she felt an unusual aura.

When I arrived at the palace, I saw Xiao Fengming chatting with the queen. Both the emperor and the queen were wearing court clothes, looking very solemn. Nie Wushuang hurriedly came forward to pay his respects.

The queen smiled gently and said: "The reason why Jieyu is here today is because the emperor wants to send Jieyu's brother, General Nie, to inspect the Congjiang area, so today we are specially allowed to get together with your brother and sister."

Nie Wushuang was surprised and happy, wondering about the emperor's intention, but when she looked at Xiao Fengming, she saw that he still had a smile on his handsome face, and there was nothing unusual about him.

Seeing Nie Wushuang staying on the spot, the queen smiled and said: "Go, General Nie will be away for two or three months this time. You two brothers and sisters have a deep love. Let's talk more today."

Xiao Fengming nodded: "This is also the Queen's reminder. You should thank the Queen."

Nie Wushuang finally came to his senses and quickly knelt down to thank him before retreating. Someone from the palace had already come forward and led Nie Wushuang to the side hall of Laiyi Palace, where Nie Minghu was sitting in the flower hall drinking tea. When he saw Nie Wushuang coming, he put down the tea cup and took a few steps forward: "Little sister!"

"Brother!" Nie Wushuang looked at his eldest brother's tanned face due to daily military training and couldn't help but feel distressed: "Brother has lost weight."

Nie Minghu looked her up and down and knew that she had always been favored by the emperor in the palace. He was half relieved and said with a smile: "It's okay, a manly man, it doesn't matter if you are darker. But you...how has the emperor treated you recently?" "

He asked the last sentence very softly, and only Nie Wushuang could hear it. Nie Wushuang's heart suddenly heated up, and his beautiful eyes filled with tears, and he nodded repeatedly: "Really

It's very... very good. Brother, don't worry. "

Only then did her empty heart feel like it was filled with something. It turned out that this was her family. Even though she often exchanged news with her eldest brother, he still wanted to ask her how she was doing before he left.

"That's good." Nie Minghu smiled reassuringly: "I heard that Concubine Yun was pregnant, so I was afraid that she would bully you. There are so many other women in the palace, haha..."

Nie Wushuang laughed, her beautiful eyes turning cunningly: "Who in the palace can bully me?"

Nie Minghu nodded repeatedly: "Yes, our little sister is very resourceful, but I am worrying too much. This time I will be out of the capital for three months, and it seems that the emperor is indeed going to start a war with Qin."

Nie Wushuang's heart trembled slightly: "So fast?"

Nie Minghu nodded: "Now that the Qin State has conquered the thirteen counties of the Qi State, the Qi State's national strength is not strong in the first place. If it were not for the natural danger of 'Yunling Pass', it would have been prey under the Qin State's iron hoof. Previously, Qi State still had several A general, and now the generals are getting old and sick..." Regret flashed across Nie Minghu's eyes. Although he hated it, it was still his homeland. Every time he talked about Qi, he still couldn't let go of the homeland he had defended to the death.

"There is no one in the Qi Dynasty. I heard that Gu Qinghong has personally invited Ying to the front line to supervise the battle." Nie Minghu said.

Nie Wushuang was slightly startled. She knew Gu Qinghong's talents best. He was able to strategize and win a thousand-mile victory. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was an important minister of the Prime Minister who was not stationed in the capital of Qi, but he asked Ying to go to supervise the war. The situation in Qi must be very dangerous.

The two siblings were speechless for a moment, as if there was a heavy breath in the air. Qi Guo, Gu Qinghong... This has always been the topic that the two of them are least willing to mention. Now it seems that they will have to face it all the time in the future.

Nie Wushuang suppressed the raging hatred in his heart and said calmly: "If Gu Qinghong can take action, the Qi State can at least survive for a few years. Brother, I must be prepared for this war for a long time."

Nie Minghu nodded: "Only when you know yourself and your enemy can you win every battle. Let me go to the Congjiang River to see what the war is like first."

Nie Wushuang looked at the eager eldest brother with complicated eyes, and sighed: "Brother, please take care of yourself."

…

After sending Nie Minghu away, Nie Wushuang went to thank the queen again. The emperor had already left, and the queen happened to be taking an examination of the eldest prince's poems and calligraphy. Nie Wushuang stood aside respectfully, looking at the queen with a satisfied smile. She took the opportunity to step forward and praised: "The eldest prince is born with intelligence. He is a blessing to my country."

The queen smiled and said: "Innate talent only brings people closer to the goal. Whether it succeeds or not depends on more efforts later."

The eldest prince was taken down by the maid. The queen glanced at Nie Wushuang and smiled gently: "Today is a good day. Firstly, Yamei is pregnant. Secondly, your eldest brother has been appreciated by the emperor and has to delegate more important errands."

Nie Wushuang didn't know what the queen was going to say today, and said with a smile: "This is all a great blessing from the emperor and the queen."

The queen stood up, her twelve phoenix skirts trailing on the ground, like the long tail wings of a phoenix. She said leisurely: "Now the harem is blooming with hundreds of flowers, and I am very happy in my heart. The emperor likes Jieyu's beauty and talent very much, I hope that in the near future, the Emperor will definitely give Jieyu the position she deserves."

Nie Wushuang was shocked and couldn't figure out the queen's true intention when she said this, but it sounded like she wanted to promote her to a higher position.

Nie Wushuang didn't dare to think about it anymore and knelt down quickly: "I am so frightened by such grace."
