The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. This is a rule passed down from generation to generation.

Especially Concubine Hua, who has long since lost her desire to fight, has no interest in the affairs of the previous dynasty.

So she only knew that Shi Cainu was harmed by her father and brother, but she didn't know exactly what the Shi family had committed.

Xiao Heng didn't like to interfere in political affairs, but Emperor Tianqing often discussed court affairs with her, and the Shi family's case was related to Xiao Heng, so she paid more attention to it.

But this kind of thing is obviously not suitable to be discussed on this occasion, so after listening to Concubine Hua's words, she just chuckled and said: "Shi Cainu is the eldest daughter of the Shi family, where did she get her brother?"

Concubine Hua rolled her eyes at her: "You like to find out my faults when you beat me up. There is not much difference between an elder brother and a younger brother!"

Everyone present was amused by her.

Xiao Bi wanted to ask about Shi Cainu's situation, but Hua Xiaohan preempted her.

"Sister, what on earth did Shi Cainu's father and brother commit?"

Concubine Hua said: "How do you expect me to inquire about this kind of thing?"

Hua Xiaohan muttered: "Then you still keep her in your palace?"

"You kid is really..." Concubine Hua poked her on the forehead: "You still don't know what kind of temper I am?"

The lesson she learned more than ten years ago was too profound, and all Hua Guifei now wants to do is to be wise and protect herself.

Except for frequent interactions with Xiao Heng and the Queen Mother, she never interacted with other women in the harem.

It's not that she lacks sympathy, she really avoids situations like Shi Cainu's.

Hua Xiaohan said: "I just think this matter is a bit abnormal, so I asked you."

Xiao Heng smiled and said: "Didn't your eldest sister just say that Shi Cainu is quite popular in the palace?

Not only high-ranking concubines, but also beauties of the same rank as her, and even some lowly palace maids and eunuchs, are all the targets of her wooing.

When she learned that something happened to the Shi family, she immediately went to Baohua Palace.

I don’t know what the Queen Mother liked about her, but she was willing to intercede on her behalf, so she was not severely punished and was given the status of a prostitute."

Hua Xiaohan suddenly realized: "It turns out that the Queen Mother asked the eldest sister to take her in."

Concubine Hua said: "What do you think? I have lived alone in Yunluo Palace for more than ten years, and suddenly I have a daughter. I don't know how awkward it is.

Fortunately, she is a very discerning person. She has lived in Yunluo Palace for more than half a month and has not caused me any trouble at all.

Before arriving at the palace, the Queen Mother specifically asked Shi Cainu to accompany her, so I took her with me."

Her explanation was quite detailed, and Xiao Bi swallowed back what she wanted to ask.

Shi Cainv's cooking skills were quite good, and the soup she cooked was sweet but not greasy. Even Wei Yuan, a picky eater since childhood, couldn't help but take a few more sips.

What is even more surprising is that the young Princess Anyang actually drank more than half of the sweet soup in the tea cup.

"Oh, my dear, you have such a good appetite today?" Concubine Hua said with a surprised smile.

During the time when Xiao Heng was infected with the cold, she personally took care of Anyang's diet and daily life, and knew the little princess's living habits well.

Especially since the weather has been too hot recently, she has prickly heat again, and eating and drinking have become a big problem.

Although it has been a little better in the past few days, I still need coaxing to eat more.

Unexpectedly, Shi Cainv's sweet soup was so popular with the little princess.

Not to mention Xiao Heng, the smile on his lips lingered for a long time.

"Ah Heng, Anyang likes Shi Cainv's cooking skills so much, how about I ask her to bring some fresh food over every day?"

Xiao Heng said: "I'm not a cook, so why do I have to work so hard every day? Besides, Anyang's picky eating problem needs to be cured. We can't just follow her in everything."

Concubine Hua couldn't hold on, so she wiped Anyang's mouth with a silk handkerchief: "Did you hear that? You are not allowed to be picky when eating from now on."

The topic of Shi Cainu ended like this.

After everyone had dinner together, Xiao Bi, Wei Yuan and the Hua family brothers and sisters said goodbye and left.

Hua Qinghan walked on Xiao Bi's left hand side. Hua Xiaohan immediately took her right arm without saying a word, leaving no chance to Wei Yuan.

Wei Yuan gouged out Hua Xiaohan's eyes several times.

The smelly girl from the Hua family has been secretly competing with him, it's so abominable!

Hua Xiaohan didn't have eyes on the back of his head, so he had no idea that he had become a thorn in others' eyes.

She smiled and said: "Xiao Bi, Zhao Zhao and A Zhen are all here. The palace is not as good as in the capital. We all live very close to each other. We can often play together."

After all, Xiao Bi is only fifteen years old, so she naturally likes to play with her friends.

She responded: "Okay, but I still have official duties, so you have to arrange your time well."

"It's not official business, don't you just want to take the Qilin Guard people hunting?

Although we are not good at martial arts, we can all ride horses.

We will go with you on horseback then, and when you catch the prey, we will have a barbecue together."

After listening to her sister's words, the corners of Hua Qinghan's mouth turned up.

Most of the noble ladies of the Wei Dynasty could ride horses, and some of them were pretty good at riding, and could even play polo.

But compared to Xiao Jiu, such riding skills are completely inferior.

Especially my sister and the ones she just mentioned, who can sit upright on a docile mare and canter a few steps.

If he really took them hunting, the situation would be unbearable to watch.

Wei Yuan became even more angry.

The smelly girl from the Hua family is really trying her best!

If he takes them with him when hunting, what chance will he have?

The charming girl is simply ten thousand times more annoying than the young men competing with him!

※※※※

The Qilin Guards, like the accompanying Imperial Guards, were stationed on the periphery of the palace according to a unified deployment.

After sending Hua Xiaohan and Wei Yuan away, Xiao Bi and Hua Qinghan returned to their base.

Her residence was a separate tent, only fifty or sixty feet away from the Huan brothers' tent.

After separating from Hua Qinghan, she went to Huan Yu's tent.

"Brother Huan, are you in there?" She called from outside.

Soon, Huan Yu's voice came from the tent: "Xiao Jiu, come in quickly."

Xiao Bi opened the door curtain and walked in.

I saw Huan Yu lying on the desk, looking at something seriously.

"What are Brother Huan looking at?" She walked over curiously.

Huan Yu straightened up and turned his head to look at her: "I'm looking at the map near the palace."

Xiao Bi leaned over and took a look at the picture, only to see that he had marked many small words on it.

"Brother Huan, are you going out today?"

Huan Yu said: "I have nothing to do today. Aji and Cao Kun and I went to the nearby hunting ground.

Training will start soon, and we must make a plan based on the nearby topography."

Xiao Bi stuck out her tongue.

Brother Huan, do you want to be so serious about your work?

Compared with him, am I, the captain, too irresponsible?

The so-called training, all she thinks about is hunting, where else would she want to make any plans?
