As soon as Meng Zixian saw the "white jade glaze", it began to shine under the sunlight. If it were carved into a bracelet or a jade hairpin, it would be a very good item.
She actually wanted to carve a piece of jade. This "White Jade Glazed Glass" could create heat in winter and cause cold in summer, but she didn't know the reason, but it was indeed magical.
Of course, even Jingfei was fighting for it.
This was the first selection, after which it was necessary to slowly put distance between them. The two of them competed until they accurately and accurately threw their arrows into the pot, and after losing, they would be eliminated. However, they could challenge it again until the winner appeared.
The competition had just begun, and the consorts rarely played this game. They didn't embroider flowers in their chambers or go for a walk in the imperial garden, so there was still no winner.
Meng Zixian rolled up her sleeves, put them down quietly, and walked over to one of the eunuchs with light steps.
"Eunuch, I want to participate as well." She was probably trying to speak at the top of her voice, trying to look delicate.
The eunuch was also very straightforward. He had someone take out six arrows. Meng Zixian took the arrows and thanked him, then stood outside the line.
She could have thrown three arrows to the ground, but she purposefully deflected the arrow to the side and let it fall out of the pot.
Ling'er watched earnestly. As long as she threw herself into the fray, she would quietly call out for support. After that, she would give encouragement to Meng Zixian.
Meng Zixian looked at the girl, who was even more nervous than she was, and felt a warm feeling in her heart, but also smiled.
Without any suspense, not a single arrow remained from the six arrows. However, after three had been thrown in, the next round of the competition could begin.
Jing Fei had been unable to get in, but seeing Meng Zian's impressive look, she looked at him for a long time before slowly walking over.
"Sister." Jing Fei smiled gently and walked to Meng Zixian's side.
"Greetings, esteemed imperial concubine." Meng Zixian bowed.
Jing Fei wanted to speak, but she hesitated. She didn't know what Jing Fei was trying to do. Jing Fei seemed to have thought things through as he grit his teeth and moved closer to her.
"Little sister, can you help me with something?" Quiet And Steadfast said in a low voice.
As expected, he would not visit without cause.
Meng Zixian politely smiled and asked, "Esteemed Empress Jing, what's the matter? "If little sister can do it, she will definitely help."
Jingfei was a bit embarrassed and slowly said, "I love that 'White Jade Glazed Glass'. It's not something ordinary. I think I can make a present of it."
It seemed that even Jingfei felt embarrassed. "But my skills aren't that good. No matter what, I won't be able to put my money into it."
This was just a small matter. Meng Zixian agreed and helped Jingfei get this "White Jade Glass".
Quiet And Steadfast stroked the object, feeling the warmth in his hand as his face broke into a wide smile. "Thank you."
Meng Zixian didn't think much of it. Jingfei hadn't gone far. She heard that it was for Song Qishen and wanted to turn it into a piece of jade …
She felt an indescribable discomfort in her heart and frowned all the way back to her bedroom.
The concubines then prepared to go to the Long Garden to watch the horse game, and Meng Zixian returned home.
Back in her bedroom, Meng Zixian pretended to rest. She told Ling'er not to disturb her, then put on her maid costume and sat down in front of the mirror.
The person in the mirror had his eyes cut and his hair draped over his shoulders. His complexion was as clear as jade and as faint as the new moon.
Meng Zixian followed her memories and combed her hair into the hair of a palace maid. She pulled out the bottom layer of the makeup box. There was a plaster box in front of her.
The color of the paste was similar to her skin. She dug out a piece and turned it upside down, trying her best to change her facial features. She looked completely different from before.
She rolled out of the window and slipped out of the bedroom.
Even though he was not a saint, he was still a concubine who had a saint pet and lived in a better place.
At this time most people were watching Marseilles, and the eunuchs and maids had gone to the Long Garden to wait on them.
"Halt." An old and dangerous voice called out to a hasty palace maid.
The palace maid turned and bowed. The mama asked, "Which palace are you from?"
Meng Zixian's heart skipped a beat. She suddenly thought of Jingfei, but because she had brought Jingfei trouble last time, she changed her mind and said, "I am the Snow Bamboo that allows Imperial Concubine to sleep in a palace."
"Oh, esteemed imperial concubine, ah, then go. Don't be so shifty in the future, you almost made me think you did something naughty."
When the mama heard that it was someone who could accommodate Imperial Concubine, she changed her expression to one of flattery. In the end, however, she still gave a few words of advice before letting them go.
Meng Zixian bowed, then turned and left.
She didn't know that after standing in her original spot and pondering for a long time, the mama suddenly thought of something. Her expression changed and she walked in a certain direction.
There was no one in Venerable Huai's bedroom. Meng Zixian looked around and, taking advantage of the right time, took a step forward. Her body became light and she jumped into the yard.
The courtyard was no more than a hundred meters wide, but it was quiet and secluded. Lanterns were hung on both sides of the courtyard; on one side was a long corridor, with crisscrossing arches, gray tiles, and a carved wooden fence. On the other side was a small courtyard.
This palace was picked out from a hundred miles away, but its owner was like flowing water as he changed from one to the other. Many dried bones were buried here.
Meng Zixian continued walking forward, trying to keep her footsteps as light as possible. Although this palace was divided into three rooms, with a total of three concubines, Grand Duke Huai lived in the main hall.
When she reached a place, she heard a cough and quickly hid behind the wall. After thinking for a while, she quietly stuck her head out.
An extremely thin and frail woman sat on a rocking chair. She had a blanket covering her body, and her hair was draped over her shoulders. Some of her hair was white, and her skin was yellow and wrinkled. She was withered like a withered leaf.
"Esteemed Empress, go in. You'll be dizzy from being in the sun for too long." A palace maid walked out from her room and looked at the woman with eyes that showed that she couldn't bear to do so.
"It's rare for me to come out and bask in the sun. I want to enjoy myself for a bit." The woman seemed to be on the verge of death as she spoke with all her strength. After she finished speaking, she gave a light cough.
Meng Zixian looked at her and couldn't help but feel a bit of pity. She was most likely the woman who had been given power to be buried in the palace.
She still had a mission to complete, so she could only bypass them, skim by the roof, and find a window to flip through.
She gently and gently rummaged through for a while, but there wasn't anything special about it. After thinking for a bit, she ran to the side of Venerable Huai's bed and rummaged through it, but still came up empty-handed.
Song Qishen suspected that someone else was actually someone from Huai Clan. She actually thought that someone from Huai Clan was cute and cute. If all of this was fake, then someone from Huai Clan really knew how to act.
She was searching for something, but she didn't know that something had happened to her bedroom.
Gu Jingyuan was unable to participate in the horse competition himself, so he felt bored and wanted to go find a woman. Seeing his concubine sitting below the arena and not interested in her, he suddenly recalled Meng Zixian's serious look in answering the questions that day and was immediately interested. He made up an excuse and quickly walked to Meng Zixian's room.
When Ling'er saw Gu Jingyuan, she was so frightened that she hurriedly bowed. The eunuch had already announced it loudly. Seeing that her young master hadn't come out yet, Ling'er was so scared that her back broke out in cold sweat.
When Song Que heard this news, his face became serious and he immediately left. Jing Fei saw him leaving and felt disappointed.
"How dare you!" "To think that we did not come out to receive them when they arrived!" Gu Jingyuan had not seen Meng Zixian for a long time. His face was flushed as he angrily cursed.
At this moment, Meng Zixian was still on the way back.
