Shen Shiyun smiled and said, "Why, my painting skills are becoming increasingly unfamiliar, so bad that you can even save your evaluation?" Li Yijie then said, "Where is... it's good and makes people feel ashamed. To be honest, I had secretly prepared a gift for you. Seeing this painting, I was really ashamed to take action, and it would be better not to mention it." Shen Shiyun said with a smile, "Then Isn't it a loss? If you paint a picture of me, I promise that even if you paint it as a cow head and horse face, I will accept it happily, okay?"

Li Yijie said: "No, I picked up some wood and wanted to carve a small puppet according to your appearance, but it was hard to carve it over and over again. I don't have a suitable carving knife, so I had to replace it with a sword. It was really useless. Therefore, I really admire those folk micro-carving artists. When an ordinary piece of wood came to their hands, it seemed like there was life, and all carvings were vivid. It was amazing."

Shen Shiyun smiled and said, "There are some shortcomings and some strengths. You envy others, but they still envy you. You have such good skills. They are gone. Hey, it's interesting. The dignified martial arts leader, Li Yijie, Li Daxia, has turned into a small carving sword. I don't know how your subordinates will say to you behind the scenes. The ancestor of the Huashan Sect knows that he is so angry that he is not a disciple. If you are not a filthy disciple, you will be so angry that you have to be so cruel. If you settle it, these have become my sins."

Li Yijie scratched his head and smiled silly. The two of them laughed a few times, and Shen Shiyun asked, "You are here, and those brothers under your jurisdiction are far from being so free and happy. Have you ever reported your safety to them?"

When Li Yijie heard this, his smile slowly freezes and sighs: "Not yet. I... I have a few days of leisure and comfort. I really don't want to worry about the world."

Shen Shiyun said seriously: "This is inappropriate. They are all loyal heroes and heroes. Since they regard you as the leader, they are willing to live and die for you, for fear that you will make any mistakes. Perhaps the world is looking for you. Can you really feel at ease? They have a wide range of ways. Maybe someone inquired about you in the palace and thought you were imprisoned and brought in troops to rescue you. Only by adding unnecessary casualties will it make me embarrassed. Can you sit back and ignore me? Besides, you have agreed to me and will help reconcile this dispute and convince them to surrender to the Qing Dynasty."

Li Yijie looked frowning and thought to himself: "Are you so anxious? Are you afraid that I am ashamed of my brothers, or are you just worried about recruiting soldiers and teaching everyone to use it for your own purposes?" As soon as this thought came out, he immediately blamed himself: "No matter why, the intention is always good. You complain that she often hides it, but how do you trust her?" Then he said: "I am not good at eloquence, and I really have no confidence in how to face them. But I will send a letter to Fei Ge on the day, and then do my best." He stood up, saw the scroll on the table, and said: "This painting..." Shen Shiyun did not expressly give it to him, and he did not dare to take it directly.

Shen Shiyun smiled and said, "Draw it? When you carve my little puppet, let's exchange it with each other, it's quite interesting." Li Yijie said happily: "Okay! OK! Then I... I'll leave first?" He was a more contented person, and had completely forgotten the awkwardness before, and walked out of the door with a whistle. Zhenying hurriedly pulled Yinyin and shrank to the corner of the wall. Yinyin had not yet come to her senses, so she opened her mouth for a long time and whispered: "That's amazing, is this the lover of Concubine Yun's affair? Even the little song was blown away, and her eyes were not very good."

Zhenying sneered, "I think it's very suitable, and only such a person is the best match for her. Hey, the wild man is going back to the room now. You can follow up and take it out when you see valuable evidence. I will go into the house first to explore the voice of Concubine Yun." He put on his clothes and came in high spirits, opened his mouth and called out: "Sister Concubine Yun?"

Shen Shiyun turned her head, her expression was calm, without any panic, and she smiled and said, "What good wind is blowing today? Alas, when it comes to the guards in this palace, they are becoming more and more polite. When I see my sister coming, I don't know how to inform you." Zhenying said, "You complain about the guards in public, but in fact, they accused me of sneaking in without permission. The fox finally showed her tail. If you didn't do anything bad, why are you nervous?" She also smiled on the surface and said, "Don't blame the good guys. It's because I'm afraid of disturbing my sister, so I didn't let them inform you. It's not something that has happened, right?"

Shen Shiyun said, "Where, I am just copying calligraphy and painting, so I can't be considered serious." Zhenying said, "I heard that my sister's painting skills are a masterpiece in the palace. It will be passed down through the ages in the future. I don't know how much the price can be raised." Shen Shiyun smiled and said, "It's just a few casual strokes to pass the time. How dare you sell it for money? Life in the deep palace is boring and lonely, and there is no other way except to send love, calligraphy and painting." Zhenying said, "This is a joke. The concubines like you who are most favored by the emperor have complaints. How can we, those who are neglected, not live?"

Shen Shiyun said: "Sister praised me and I am ashamed. The real role of the imperial concubine is to decorate the storefront and to reproduce the royal bloodline. Although he can enjoy all his glory and wealth, his heart is extremely empty and exhausted in his life. How many can he really have? He will never get a complete heart of his husband. His great love must be divided into multiple small loves. Just imagine that spring night is short, but the concubines in each palace can only sleep alone, lying in the cold big bed, looking at the darker and deeper, and his heart is really desolate. Occasionally, the emperor stays in his own bedroom overnight, which seems like a great favor. He is the most fond of the new and old. Today's favorite concubine may be the abandoned concubine tomorrow, but he is also not easy. He must be trapped by political interests and marry a woman he doesn't love at all. This is the sorrow of the imperial family."

Zhenying was stunned for a while and almost scolded her for being "bold". She thought, "If I want her to let go of her guard and be honest, she must first get closer to her. The two of them have the same idea to feel like they meet a soulmate." She pretended to be excited and said, "It's reasonable. I have thought this way for a long time and dare not talk to others. Although the imperial concubine looks so glorious, she is not as happy as a commoner couple. There are gains and losses. It's probably like that." After a change of the tone, she said, "But then, as a woman, reputation is the most important. The more noble the identity is, the more she must abide by the wife's morals. If her fate is, she can only recognize her."

Shen Shiyun sighed, "Yes, since she was enthroned as a concubine, she was the emperor's woman. She should put her beautiful fantasies aside and serve the emperor wholeheartedly. The sisters in the harem should not be jealous. Even if they cannot relieve the emperor's worries, they should rise up from their own hands and try their best to make him worry."

Zhenying said in her heart: "This is true to the sky. You can say it without blushing and your heart is not beating." She smiled and said, "If you are as broad-minded as your sister, you can be peaceful in the palace. I am afraid that some people who are ungrateful will always be ungrateful, and they always have a rude attitude of 'not afraid of ten thousand, and not encountering anything'. She thinks she is doing it perfectly, but she doesn't know that everyone has hundreds of pairs of eyes behind her every move. I heard that a few days ago, a noble man had hooked up with a little white face and often had a secret meeting in a secluded place. When the emperor found out, he secretly gave her three feet of white silk to break her own and use her power to correct the emperor."

In fact, Zhenying's words were purely fabricated, just for false intimidation, but there were many concubines who were executed secretly in the palace in every dynasty and generation, so it was not completely unfounded. Shen Shiyun was indifferent and smiled and said in a faint smile: "Is there such a thing? Why doesn't the palace know?" Zhenying said: "My sister is obsessed with piano, chess, calligraphy and painting all day long, and she ignores her own affairs. How can she know? Besides, this is a royal scandal, so she naturally covers it up in every way and hides it secretly."

Shen Shiyun said: "So that's the case. My sister is very informative and can even find out about the royal scandal. But knowing that there are too many secrets from others is probably not a good thing."

Zhenying snorted coldly, "Listen to the teachings, I will keep it in mind." She thought again, "Are you hinting me not to worry about your business? Humph, it's not that cheap." She squeezed out her smile and said, "I said sister, you are so thin and your face is quite pale. You should really take a walk outside and bask in the sun. You are always trapped in a small room, and you will be locked up too bad." Shen Shiyun said, "Thank you for your kindness, but I am a quiet person, and I don't want to go out and run around and cause trouble."

Zhenying muttered, "You can attract bees and butterflies without leaving your home. You are so coquettish." Shen Shiyun said, "What are you saying?" Zhenying said, "It's nothing, don't you hear that 'people sit at home, and disaster comes from heaven'. Even if you don't want to cause trouble, you come to your door to pester you. What can you do?" Shen Shiyun walked a few steps to the side, glanced at Zhenying with a strange smile, "Yes, I am also upset about this. What do you think should I do?"

Zhenying was stunned and immediately realized that she was mocking herself for being the "trouble coming to the door", and said to herself, "I come today, if you whisper to me, kowtow a few times and beg me hard, and give me some benefits, maybe I feel soft, I will turn my eyes open and close my eyes, and don't come to study with you, but your sarcasm and scolding me has already angered me." She remembered the placement of the portrait, while looking at the calligraphy and paintings on the table, pretending to sway his hand, and knocked the painting to the ground, then quickly leaned over and picked it up, brushed it up, scraped it up, and quickly put the painting on the scroll, then put it on the table, then pretended to glance at it inadvertently, and praised: "Oh, what a handsome husband? Who is he? Sister, don't touch the heart of a mortal heart?"

Shen Shiyun smiled and said, "It's not easy to say this kind of thing. Is this a person who is knowingly offended? He is the family that a relative of a palace maid in the countryside. He went to the palace to visit relatives a few days ago. The couple was inseparable and could not be separated. I drew a picture of them separately to comfort the pain of their lovesickness."

Zhenying sneered in her heart: "What comforts the pain of lovesickness of 'the two of them' is clearly you! You are so beautiful, your love affairs are on the head of the palace maid, please wait for me." She still smiled gently on her face and said, "My sister is really conscience. She is blessed by her maid who follows you. Okay, if you don't say anything, you must be urging me to leave quickly. I will be a tactful person. If you don't bother my sister, I will say goodbye first."

Shen Shiyun didn't try to keep her, and smiled and said, "Sister, please come and sit down often in the future."

Zhenying said, "This is natural." She said in her heart, "Then you need to say it? I must be harder than anyone else. But I am not a good wind, a typhoon or a tornado, a hurricane that uproots you and kills you!" She wanted to add a sentence in Li Yijie's tone, "As long as you are not bored", it would be satisfying, but when she thought of this, she would be careful, but because of the small loss, she had to calm down, turned her head and raised the corner of her mouth in an unknown way, and walked out with her head high, and every step was thudding.

Before he could walk far, he saw Yin Yin standing nearby, with his face full of excitement, as if he had gained something from following Li Yijie. The two of them were close together and opened their mouths together, which was considered a tacit understanding between the master and the servant. Seeing that the other party was about to speak, they stopped again. Zhenying urged, "You talk first, hurry up." Yin Yin asked in a humble manner, "Empress tell me first."
