Suddenly, I heard a calm and clear voice not far away. Qingluan took advantage of the situation to see that in the elegant pavilion by the pond, a slender figure was sitting with his back to her. In the pavilion, a delicate chessboard is placed, and a woman in a light gauze skirt and a velvet gown sits alone, as if she had long been convinced that she would come here. The maid beside her was holding a stove in her hand, emitting the steam, and was looking at Qingluan with a light smile.

Although I don't know who is sitting in the pavilion, I have an intuition that this woman must be a beauty. The long hair that is pulled up at will is not even decorated with a hairpin, and the back is like a flowing cloud, which only feels exceptionally fresh and refined. However, when Qingluan walked over, he gasped. The woman who shouldn't have appeared here smiled skillfully, as if she had even guessed Qingluan's reaction - Imperial Concubine Jin.

"The slave has seen the mother, the mother ......"

"Long time no see." She picked up a white chess piece with two fingers, and a smile rose on her elegant and feminine face, "Those worldly rules are still exempt." Come, play a game of chess with me. ”

Qingluan then resigned, she forgot that Imperial Concubine Jin was different from other masters, and what the emperor was obsessed with was probably that indifferent temperament. She sat down opposite, poured tea for herself generously, and then saw the smile on the face of the imperial concubine opposite.

"Isn't Niangniang recuperating in another garden, how can you ......?"

Drop crisply. The imperial concubine seemed to be focused on the chess game, and replied without raising her head, "It's not for you." ”

"Me?"

"If he hadn't asked someone to invite me out, how could I have just come to see you stupid girl in my spare time." Qingluan's words were in a fog, but she covered her mouth and chuckled, "It seems that I am going to stay until the end of the ceremony." ”

He......

Qingluan's heart jumped suddenly, and that irrepressible emotion jumped to the bottom of her heart again. It's him, the one he misses day and night. It turned out that he still remembered himself, and it turned out that he also had his own existence in his heart.

"Do you know Zichen?"

"It's an old friend." The woman chuckled, a subtle sly floating on her lips, "Otherwise, who would agree to such an unreasonable request." ”

Qingluan wanted to respond to the woman with a smile, but there were too many emotions in her heart and nowhere to put them. Since Zichen is willing to ask for Concubine Jin, can she think that the man is actually thinking about her.

But why didn't he come in person, why didn't he refuse to see himself? is familiar with the emperor, and is a close friend of Emperor Jin, what is the origin of this mysterious pianist who suddenly appeared in his life.

"You don't have to think about it, he's been too busy lately to come and see you in person." Seeing the uneasiness of the woman in front of her, the imperial concubine seemed to explain casually, but she suddenly understood Yuchen's intentions in her heart. deliberately concealed her identity like that, for fear of hurting her.

Or, deceive yourself. Pretend that there is no identity gap between the two, and pretend that all the impossible can be what you want it to be.

Yuchen Huh Yuchen, how much weight does this unsophisticated little palace maid occupy in your heart, so that you are willing to insist on giving it a try even if you know that the Tao is futile.

Concubine Jin sighed lightly, and when she fell, she was much slower because she couldn't concentrate on it. The two were relatively speechless for a while, but they saw that Qingluan had pushed away the chessboard and looked directly at him with a peaceful and distant gaze.

"Niangniang, please forgive Qingluan, I'm afraid I won't be able to finish this game of chess."

"That's fine." The woman held her forehead with one hand, her brows furrowed slightly, but there was no anger in her eyes, "I have no intention of forcing it, I guess you also need to be calm and calm." ”

Qingluan got up and said goodbye, no matter what, it is always excellent to meet the imperial concubine at this moment. She has not been out of the other garden for several years, and now she is willing to return to the palace to protect herself for her ministers, which also makes Qingluan subconsciously feel the danger lurking around her. Indeed, if Concubine Xian's thing happened again, even a few Imperial Concubine Jin would not be able to save herself.

I looked down and thought about it, but I didn't realize that a group of people had stopped in front of me. Qingluan couldn't help but raise her head suddenly when she saw a black shadow under her feet, and her figure couldn't help but shake at this sight - the person in front of her was the person she was afraid to see now, Concubine Chen.

The woman stood in front of her, wearing a delicate pearl tunic and a red fringed skirt on her lower body. Such a strong color is covered by a gray snow cloak, which is a kind of surprise that cannot be concealed. Because it is only superficial and rouge, Ben's pale face is even more pale, and the kind of beauty that seems to be world-weary is the treasure of Concubine Chen's eternal favor.

"Presumptuous!" Concubine Chen's side changed at some point, but she was plain, but she was born with a pair of sharp eyes, and she just showed her original intention for Concubine Chen. The nobles who followed behind were originally the followers of Concubine Xin, but unfortunately the trees fell and scattered, and now the Huawei Palace is as cold as an ice cellar, and even the masters who pass by are afraid of being contaminated with bad luck, and these women in their prime have no reason not to find another backer.

"Sister, this hoof is deliberate, and the people around the queen don't take you seriously." A nobleman opened his mouth indignantly, looking like he was standing up for Concubine Chen.

"What kind of heart is she, can't this palace see it?" Concubine Chen didn't appreciate it, she just glanced at the person behind her with a cold expression, and said lightly, "When will you tell this palace what to do." ”

The nobles were bored with themselves, and they didn't dare to say much, so they had to shrink their necks and hold back the words in their stomachs. Seeing that it was another farce, Qingluan knew that Concubine Chen hated her, and she would not let her go easily this time, so she saluted unhurriedly: "The slave is rude." Niangniang auspicious. ”

"Snap" slapped on his face, and Qingluan only felt a hot pain in his cheeks. She looked up in astonishment, but saw Concubine Chen who raised her right hand high and a group of nobles who were laughing and trembling, and for a while she only felt a wave of humiliation and nausea rising from the bottom of her heart, and she covered her chest and gasped.

"You're bold!"

Concubine Chen raised her hand again, but before she fell, she heard a "stop". The group looked up and searched for the source of the sound. Directly in front of the pavilion, the woman in the snowcoat stood proudly upright, and her solemn demeanor had a kind of momentum of not being angry and arrogant.

Concubine Chen's expression changed and changed at that moment, and she was as panicked as if she had seen a hellish Shura. Although the few newly promoted nobles behind him didn't recognize the person in front of them, they saw that Concubine Chen was already kneeling on the ground and bowed respectfully, so naturally they didn't dare to slack off.

For a while, the situation seemed to have undergone a wonderful reversal, on the empty jade road, a group of concubines kneeling on the ground and women looking sideways, the violent collision of aura made Qingluan at a loss.

"The concubine has seen Emperor Jin, and the princess is auspicious."

Unexpectedly, Emperor Jin, who has always been ignorant of the world and has no formal manners, would have such a great shock, Qingluan was stunned for a moment, and immediately retreated behind the woman.

"Xing Yan, just kneel down." The cold words were loud, and the usually gentle woman seemed to have a different face. In the face of Emperor Jin's reprimand, Concubine Chen, who had always had no one in her eyes, just hung her head silently, and didn't dare to have a word of rebuttal.

fluttered Concubine Chen's arrogance, and the woman didn't seem to want to stay longer for a moment. What's more, in her eyes, the harem's deception is humble and funny. Concubine Jin threw down the chess game and walked straight with Qingluan and the little girl beside her, and didn't even look at the group kneeling on the ground.

Qingluan had never seen Xing Yan so afraid of people, even in the face of the queen, her momentum was not a little weaker, and she admired the imperial concubine for no reason.

Concubine Jin, who had already taken a few steps, felt a strange gaze around her, and as soon as she turned around, she saw a face full of reverence close to her, she subconsciously pushed with her hand, and said angrily: "What kind of strange appearance are you." ”

Seeing that she had forgotten Fang Cai's shame in a blink of an eye, Qingluan, who was laughing heartlessly at this time, couldn't bear to say anything more. But it seems that she suddenly understands the reason why Yuchen is so desperate to protect her. Yes, she doesn't want to see anyone who has been devoured by the harem of power lust anymore. Such a kind woman, she doesn't want to see her hands stained with blood one day.

"Niangniang, do you come back this time to say hello to the Queen Mother, the Emperor, and the Queen?" The little maid beside her asked, which gave the two of them a wake-up call.

"No need," replied the princess without even thinking, "I'm just going to come back and take a look, I don't intend to stay long, so I don't need to be so excited." ”

It's just that...... I'm afraid the tree wants to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop.

Imperial Concubine Jin walked for a long time, and the nobles behind her dared to cowardly remind Concubine Chen to stand up. However, she didn't say much, just looked straight ahead, a pair of autumn water-like eyes as deep as Tan.

Could it be that when I heard that Concubine Xian was pregnant, even the imperial concubine, who had always been as calm as a mountain, finally couldn't hold her breath? This time, what kind of giant Lang will be set off before it stops.

Concubine Xian, even if you are pregnant with the emperor first, no one in the harem is full of treachery and dangers. It was not that the emperor was childless, but that no concubine had ever been able to give birth to a child in peace. In this palace, there is never a shortage of people who set up situations everywhere and work every step of the way. Thinking like this, a sneer gradually appeared at the corner of Concubine Chen's mouth, and she slowly straightened her waist with the support of the concubines, and muttered in her mouth: "Sisters, the show is about to begin." ”
