Since the inner chamberlain went to Yanxi Palace in the afternoon to deliver the message, Concubine Chen breathed a sigh of relief at the moment, but the whole afternoon after that was in a state of restlessness.

Pity looked at the time and said to Concubine Chen: "Niangniang, don't worry, the emperor is about to come." ”

Concubine Chen nodded, her eyes still staring at the palace door, hoping that Chu Tianze would come soon.

Up and down the Yanxi Palace, except for pity and rusu, no one else knows why Concubine Chen is so abnormal today, to say that in the harem, the emperor's favorite is Concubine Chen, and the number of times she has been to Yanxi Palace is also the most. Although the emperor often comes, how have they ever seen Concubine Chen waiting so eagerly today?

Ru Su looked at Concubine Chen in such a hurry, and hurriedly comforted, "Niangniang, the emperor still feels sorry for you, knowing that you are worried about this matter in your heart, I asked the inner chamberlain to inform you in advance." The inner chamberlain came to deliver a message in the afternoon, and this was the first time in the palace. So, the emperor will do this, he must have this in mind, and he will come in a while, you don't have to worry. ”

Hearing Rusu's words, Concubine Chen's face relaxed, and she took a deep breath: "I hope so." ”

Rusu didn't forget the important things, she helped Concubine Chen to the table, and persuaded distressedly: "Niangniang, you see that your dinner is useless, the emperor is coming in a while, and you can't listen to the emperor hungry." You still have to eat first, and adjust the situation, so that when you finish eating, the emperor will arrive. ”

Although Concubine Chen had no appetite, she still symbolically moved a few chopsticks after listening to Rusu's words.

Seeing that Rusu persuaded Concubine Chen, she was also relieved in her heart, and secretly gave Rusu a thumbs up.

"The emperor has arrived. ”

Concubine Chen waited for Chu Tianze for an afternoon, and finally waited for this sound to be excited, hurriedly threw away her chopsticks, and stood up to face the outside of the hall.

Seeing Concubine Chen so eager, for fear that Concubine Chen would be excited and forget the basic etiquette, she hurriedly kept up with Concubine Chen's pace, and reminded her softly in her ear: "Niangniang, talk to the emperor, don't worry." ”

"The concubine has seen the emperor. Concubine Xian said anxiously but respectfully. If it hadn't been reminded in time, Concubine Chen Xu really couldn't wait to ask Chu Tianze directly.

Before Chu Tianze stepped into the palace gate, Concubine Chen came out, and Chu Tianze was really a little surprised. In Yanxi Palace, how could he have had such a "courtesy", Concubine Chen has always been calm about her arrival, and she doesn't know if it is due to her temperament or habitual. Concubine Chen is so anxious today, thinking that she is worried about Yun Yi's affairs.

Chu Tianze helped Concubine Chen up, seeing the anxiety and worry in her eyes, Chu Tianze patted the back of her hand to reassure. said to the palace people: "You all stand down, you don't have to wait." ”

The palace people rushed out, and only Chu Tianze and Concubine Chen were left in the hall.

"Your Majesty, please forgive your concubines for the crime of disrespect. "Concubine Chen first asked for sin.

"What's wrong?" Chu Tianze said nonchalantly.

"Concubine let you see all the notes, right?" asked Concubine Chen, staring into Tianze's eyes.

"I saw it, otherwise how could I let the inner guard come and inform me first?" Chu Tianze chuckled, "Only you dare to talk to me like this! ”

Concubine Chen also smiled, but the smile did not reach the bottom of her eyes.

Chu Tianze saw Concubine Chen's bitter face, and said with relief: "Okay, I'm not all here, I forgive you for your innocence." ”

When Concubine Chen heard this, she didn't care about any rules, so she met Chu Tianze's gaze and asked, "Can the emperor give the concubine an explanation?"

Chu Tianze sighed: "Are you referring to the matter of Guanguan going to Yiyuan?"

"Exactly!" Concubine Chen replied with a frown.

"I didn't think you cared about ......"

Before Chu Tianze finished speaking, Concubine Chen rushed to say: "Your Majesty, although the concubine is indifferent to Yun Yi on weekdays, the concubine always thinks about her in her heart. The concubine thinks that the emperor understands the concubine best......"

Seeing Concubine Chen so excited, Chu Tianze knew that she had misunderstood what she meant, "Concubine Chen, what I want to say is that I thought you wouldn't care about one more person loving Yunyi. ”

Hearing this, Concubine Chen sneered: "One more person loves Yun Yi? Your Majesty, do you believe it! How long has Guanguan only been in the palace, how can she know Yun Yi and have the ability to make Yun Yi, who is not close to the living, like her and trust her? She is also the emperor's woman, and the purpose of approaching Yun Yi will not be simple! Your Majesty, you have been in the palace since you were a child, have you seen less dirty things in this harem?"

Chu Tianze knew that what Concubine Chen said was reasonable, but he didn't think of Guan Guan like that, "I am willing to believe her." ”

"Do you believe her?" Concubine Chen smiled bitterly, "Your Majesty, you like Shangguanguan, don't you?"

Chu Tianze was suddenly stunned by Concubine Chen's question: "Like it?"

"Your Majesty, don't you understand your own heart? Except for the reason that you like her, the concubine can't think of any other reason. Concubine Chen asked helplessly, "The concubine has always believed that with the emperor's favor for Yun Yi, she will definitely protect her thoroughly, and you have indeed protected her very well, except for this time...... Your Majesty, how can you let outsiders approach her at will?"

For Concubine Chen's first question, Chu Tianze couldn't answer it clearly for the time being. But the second question, he thought it was necessary to have a good discussion with Concubine Chen.

"For Yun Yi, loving her and protecting her is what I, as a father, am most willing and must do, and I will naturally do my best. It's just that Yun Yi needs to grow, and she can't live in a world of one person forever. Chu Tianze said seriously to Concubine Chen, "Concubine Chen, you have always hoped that Yun Yi will be independent and strong and learn to grow up on her own, but will she be happy if she never comes into contact with outsiders like this?"

"Your Majesty, do you know what the reason for the concubines to force themselves and Yunyi over the years, if they can, the concubines also hope to give their daughters all their love and let her grow up carefree. Concubine Chen had already burst into tears, "It's all fate, she must learn to protect herself in this palace, she can't trust anyone lightly." If that official did something to her, the concubine didn't dare to think about it......"

Chu Tianze gently wiped away the tears on Concubine Chen's face: "However, wouldn't it be better if Yun Yi could protect herself and grow up happily?"

When Concubine Chen heard this, she was suddenly shocked.

"Shall we try?" Chu Tianze hugged the trembling Concubine Chen into his arms, "Yun Yi should have a better life." ”

Concubine Chen snuggled in Chu Tianze's arms and didn't speak again, Chu Tianze knew that she was listening, he continued: "Guanguan is the first, Yunyi will contact more Guanguan in the future, there must be a start." ”

"But the concubine is afraid ......" Concubine Chen finally spoke, still expressing her worries.

"Don't be afraid. Chu Tianze patted Concubine Chen's shoulder, "Guanguan...... I believe in her, and you can trust her. ”

"Your Majesty, the concubines believe in you, but they won't trust others. Concubine Chen insisted, "The concubine needs to be observed for a while. ”

"Good. Chu Tianze knew that this was Concubine Chen's biggest concession, so he had to take his time.
