She felt uneasy, so she only sat for a while before leaving the main hall. At this time, the sun was shining outside, and Su E helped the woman to climb down the white jade steps. The creaking of snow on the ground is a bit of fun. She was about to speak, but found that Qingluan's mind was not on the snow scene at all.

"Auntie...... You say this 10,000-year-old turtle has teeth? ”

Su E paused slightly, but smiled in a blink of an eye, "What's the matter, little master." Ancient medicine has recorded what is used in medicine, such as phoenix feathers, dragon scales, and turtle teeth, but they are not all coaxing. The medicine is so expensive that no one has ever seen it. ”

Qingluan was speechless for a while, and she didn't know what was worried in her heart, so she just said, "Let's go back." ”

Five days later, the Queen Mother's birthday came as scheduled.

The dinner was held in the apse of Fushou Palace, although it was a small place, the furnishings were extremely exquisite. It is said that the Son of Heaven has not set foot here since he asked for peace two months ago. The state affairs of the previous dynasty were tight, and the Qin family summoned important ministers in Fushou Palace every time to make a decision, as if the two dynasties were separated. It can be seen that the mother and son have reached the point of tension, and they are about to break out.

However, although everyone in the palace knows it, they still have to pretend to be a mother and a son to show the world. The emperor held a banquet, wearing a dark red gilt robe beside him, her long hair was tied into a bun, and she was the queen mother with a domineering attitude between her eyebrows. If she hadn't been sitting on the emperor's side in a gorgeous dress, others would never have imagined that such an awe-inspiring woman would be the queen mother who grew up in the deep palace.

In contrast, even the Son of Heaven, who had always been indifferent, suddenly felt much softer.

He frequently raised a glass in his hand, but his face was full of smiles to congratulate the Queen Mother on her birthday. The wine was drunk one by one, and Rao was a massive body, and he couldn't stand such a tide-like drinking, but after a while, the emperor's face was already full of drunkenness. The queen is wearing colorful brocade today, her makeup is beautiful, her long hair like a crow feather is dignified behind her head, and Zhu Yu's forehead ring hangs down in the center of her eyebrows, lining her smooth forehead.

Seeing that the emperor only cared about pouring wine one by one, she was anxious, stretched out her hand and pushed the arm of the Son of Heaven, and whispered: "The emperor has drunk today......"

"Leave him alone." The queen mother on the table suddenly spoke, her eagle-like sharp eyes looked directly at everyone under the stairs, but she never had a single glance of concern for his young son, "Mourning the family respects the concubines of the palace, you still have to serve the emperor well and have more children." ”

For a while, they raised their glasses in response, all eyes were staggered on the two of them, and the air was cold and lonely. The Son of Heaven pushed away the queen's white arm, and squinted at the dignified-looking woman in power next to him with an irreverent afterglow, and the exquisite jade cup in his hand was pinched and crackled. Everyone else raised their glasses, but their palms trembled with sweat.

The Queen Mother leaned sideways slightly, and there was no smile in her eyes. "The emperor has something to say?"

"Erchen hopes that the queen mother's face will not fade," his voice was not high, but he was extremely heavy, "The queen mother has always been so young, and the son-in-law can also save a lot of effort in political affairs." He didn't look at the sharp light in Qin's eyes anymore, and only said slightly drunk: "Qingluan, you come to pour wine for me." ”

It was said suddenly. Qingluan's body trembled, and he hurriedly raised his head.

At this moment, she was like the target of everyone, from the princes to the concubines and concubines, all of them looked at her unkindly. Qingluan is just a nobleman, how can he go past the masters to serve in front of the palace. She was even more uneasy in her heart, and her eyes were mistaken to Yuchen on the opposite side in a trance. The man looked at himself with the same intent.

"This is the Hunan nobleman who has been favored by the emperor recently." The Queen Mother smiled, like moonlight swinging across the blue water abyss, "Since the emperor called you, you will come." ”

"The status of the concubine is humble, and she does not dare to trespass."

"Come here." Although the Son of Heaven was drunk, his eyes were extremely bright. Although he seemed to take the opportunity to act willfully, Qingluan knew that every time he coexisted with the Qin family, his mind was sober every time.

She lifted the hem of her skirt, stepped forward step by step, and took the white jade wine jug in the hands of her subordinates. I wanted to pour wine, but my wrist was suddenly squeezed by the man, and the distance was so close in the blink of an eye. The man's crown brushed the tip of her nose, leaving a cold touch. The moment he leaned over and poured the wine, the warm breath he exhaled was like a light kiss falling on his ear.

"You sit next to me."

The woman stopped abruptly and knelt firmly in front of him. It was a felony to be spoiled in this way, and she would not be able to avoid falling into the reputation of a fox and seducing the lord in the future. She couldn't even guess what the emperor intended to do this. Is it really just to get revenge on her past?

"Emperor, you should also be more restrained."

"Erchen doesn't understand what the queen mother means." He finally withdrew his gaze from staring at Qingluan, but only drank a full glass of sake again, "Could it be that in the eyes of the queen mother, it is the fault of the sons and daughters to sit together with their beloved." ”

The Queen Mother dropped her cup heavily.

With this crisp sound, no one dared to sit firmly on the table. However, Rao's face was still as calm as water, and there was no trace of anger. With long eyebrows and sideburns, her eyes are like crescent moons, if it weren't for the jade chopsticks under the cup that were shattered into powder, she wouldn't even be able to see the ripples in her emotions.

"My son has grown up." She said in a weak tone, "Who you spoil, how you spoil it, it doesn't matter if you mourn the family." It's just that you don't have to forget the number of rituals set by your ancestors, and don't forget that this throne is not easy to come by. ”

The Son of Heaven sneered, "Erchen never dares to forget." ”

The mother and son are-for-tat, and the most difficult one is Qin Suyue. Seeing that the birthday banquet was not successful, and the atmosphere was extremely cold, she was annoyed in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it in the slightest. He only motioned for everyone to get up, turned his head and said lightly to Qingluan: "You go down first." ”

The concubines exchanged several rounds of glances with each other, and they all looked at the woman with a smug face and returned to the seat. The queen also breathed a sigh of relief, and turned her eyes and said: "This palace is almost in good shape when it looks at the body of Prince Yuchen, and it must be stained with the blessing of the queen mother's birthday." ”

The named man stood up and saluted, and said softly: "Sister-in-law Lao remembers." ”

As soon as he opened his mouth, Qingluan, who had not yet sat down, was secretly startled again. She knew in her heart that the queen wanted to eradicate her in one fell swoop today. She has inadvertently ignited the old feud between the mother and son, so if there is any more words directed at her, it will be more than lucky.

Looking up, he saw that the woman in the costume who was drinking was glancing at him with a smile in her eyes.

"It seems that the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum fruit sent by the concubine has a miraculous effect." Concubine Chen obviously saw the queen's intentions, if she wanted to hug Qingluan, she would transfer everyone's jealousy to her. The makeup she delicately painted was as beautiful as the fairy in the painting, and this opening was even more attractive, "The prince has taken the tonic sent by the small leaves of the Ling Immortal Palace?" ”

Yuchen nodded with a smile, and hurriedly raised his glass in return: "Niangniang is willing to cut her love to Xiao Wang, and Xiao Wang is grateful." ”

"This is unusual," the queen put down the wine bottle lightly, and the tassels and jade beads on her head jingled, "How can this palace not know that my sister has such a friendship with the prince?" ”

"The queen doesn't know that Ganoderma lucidum has grown in the old forest for thousands of years, which is extremely rare. This mountain people are also rare to find a life in this life, this thing absorbs the aura of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon, although it is born in the place of the yin, it is the thing of the yang, the most nourishing. The concubine expected that the emperor and the prince had a deep brotherhood, and when they learned that the prince was critically ill, they wanted to use this thing as medicine, but it was a pity that the emperor rewarded the concubine a few days ago, and the concubine had to borrow flowers to offer Buddha. ”

After these words, everyone had already faded away from Qingluan's previous overstepping of courtesy, and they all looked sideways at Concubine Chen. But listening to the Son of Heaven's case, he laughed: "Concubine Chen is the most heartfelt." ”

The atmosphere eased for a while, and someone toasted with kind words. Qingluan sat on the seat in a daze, only to feel that he had just experienced a life and death verdict. She looked up at Yuchen, who was smiling at her. obviously said that it has nothing to do with it, but every time it comes to this, I hope he is there. It seems that as long as there is him, he will always be able to live safely.

Su E took the opportunity to make vegetables for the woman, and the jade chopsticks were placed in the bowl, and whispered: "Little master, it still grows very well this night." ”
