Chapter 86, Alone
Since entering the palace, Yan'er's Qinning Palace has always been a crowd, and other concubines have come to visit from time to time.
In fact, Yan'er understood where these people came to visit her, they were just curious about what kind of woman could be so favored by Yeluxian, with inquiry, envy, and jealousy.
There are only two kinds of relationships between women and women. If it's not a friend, it's an enemy. And these people are obviously not prepared to consider her as a friend, so there is no doubt that these people will become their enemies in the near future.
Thinking of this, Yan'er couldn't help but worry a little about whether the fetus in her womb would be able to escape the open guns and arrows in the future.
Now that he is alone in this harem, if there is no one to help him, he is afraid that his life will be very sad.
"Suiyu, you were asked to send some interesting things to Gonggong Xu that day, did you send them?"
"You don't have to worry about my business, a few days ago, I picked a few things from your dowry, which are not very valuable, but they are also rare, and sent them to Grandpa Xu. Grandpa Xu asked me to thank you on his behalf, if you have any instructions in the future, just let him know, he will definitely do his best to help you. Suiyu replied while pouring tea for Yan'er.
"Very well, he's a man with a good eye." Yan'er smiled with satisfaction.
"Gonggong Xu also said that if you want to gain a firm foothold in this harem, it is best to have a good relationship with Concubine Lan of Zhaoyang Palace." Suiyu continued.
"Concubine Lan?" Yan'er remembered that none of the concubines who came to visit her in Qinning Palace a few days ago were named Concubine Lan, so who is this Concubine Lan?
Suiyu handed the freshly brewed tea in her hand to Yan'er, and then said slowly: "I heard that Gonggong Xu said that Concubine Lan is the daughter of the general Yelu Mingzuo, and she has known the emperor since she was a child. After General Yelu sacrificed his life for the country, only a son and a daughter were left in the family. It's a pity that Concubine Lan's brother is not angry, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling all day long, and the family road is in the middle. After the emperor ascended the throne, he was grateful for Concubine Lan's companionship when she was a child, and didn't want her to continue to live too hard in her mother's house, so she was taken to the palace. Named Lan Concubine. ”
"In other words, this Concubine Lan is the emperor's childhood sweetheart?"
Suiyu nodded and continued: "Niangniang doesn't know, although Concubine Lan is also a harem concubine, she never competes for favor. I heard that before the mother entered the palace, she was in this harem. Only Concubine Lan can confront Concubine Xuan. ”
"Oh? That's kind of interesting! Looks like I'm really going to meet that Lan Fei! Yan'er said with interest
On the morning of this day, Yan'er took Suiyu to the Zhaoyang Palace that Xu Shoujing said.
Before entering the door, I heard a melodious sound of the piano coming from the Zhaoyang Palace.
Yan'er was overjoyed, it seems that this Concubine Lan is really a demure woman who doesn't like to compete for favor. Otherwise, with the jealousy of this harem woman. I can't play such an elegant piece no matter what.
Thinking of this, Yan'er slowly walked into the palace gate of Zhaoyang Palace, but saw all kinds of flowers and plants in the courtyard blooming so lively, some red, some yellow, some pink, some purple, it was really overwhelming.
Yan'er continued to walk into the house, only to see a woman in a light blue tulle robe sitting quietly in front of the guzheng with her head bowed and playing. Although she couldn't see her face, Yan'er had already felt the woman's powerful aura. Otherwise, how can you compete with the arrogant and domineering Xiao Mi?
One song is over. The woman slowly raised her head and said to Yan'er with a smile: "Presumably this is Xiao Guifei, who has just entered the palace recently, right?" ”
Immediately, she turned her head to the palace maid beside her and said, "Xiaomo, show the tea to the concubine!" ”
Only then did Yan'er see the woman's appearance clearly, only to see that the woman's eyes were like water, but with a faint coldness, and a pair of eyes seemed to be able to see through a qiē. Ten fingers are delicate, the skin is like congealed fat, and there is a little pink in the snow. The corners of his lips hooked up a smile, as ethereal and brilliant as fireworks.
So Yan'er slowly walked from the door to the woman. Bent down lightly and bent her knees, and saluted the woman: "Yan'er greets Sister Lanfei, sister Wanfu." ”
"My sister doesn't have to be polite, I have long heard that the emperor's brother has newly married a concubine who looks like a fairy. See you today. My sister is really a beautiful country. Concubine Lan smiled faintly.
In this smile, there is only plain as water, but there is no envy or jealousy. Thinking about it, this Concubine Lan is really a different woman.
My sister laughed, where can my sister compare to my sister's talent and appearance, and my sister is very envious of my sister. I'm afraid that in the entire Liao country, there will be no second woman who can play what a beautiful piano sound is. ”
Concubine Lan slowly walked away from the guzheng. Then he walked towards Yan'er.
Suiyu saw Concubine Lan walking towards her mother, thinking about the child in her mother's belly, and then thinking about the various murderous pictures of the harem competing for favor, instinctively blocking in front of Yan'er.
"Suiyu, don't be rude!" Yan'er stopped.
Suiyu retreated to the side with great grievances.
Concubine Lan looked at Suiyu and laughed softly: "You girl, you are quite good at protecting the lord!" ”
"Suiyu is a maid brought by my sister from her mother's house, so I am not very familiar with the rules of the palace, I rushed into my sister just now, and I ask my sister not to be surprised." Yan'er gently bent her knees and begged Concubine Lan for Suiyu.
"My sister is too worried, I think you are very blessed, you have such a personal maid who knows how to protect the safety of her master at all times, and my sister can rest easy from now on." Concubine Lan turned her gaze to Yan'er again and said jokingly.
Concubine Lan's refusal to pursue Suiyu's impolite behavior really surprised Yan'er, it seems that this Concubine Lan is also a relatively easy person to get along with, so her heart is a little more relaxed.
My sister smiled. In this harem, it would be a blessing to be able to save his life. Where does it come from? Yan'er replied with a soft smile.
"It seems that my sister is now very clear about her situation." Concubine Lan said pointedly.
"Yan'er came today to ask her sister about this." Yan'er said straight to the point.
"Ask me for advice? My sister knows that in this harem, I am not favored. Concubine Lan walked around Yan'er and said.
"Although my sister is not the most favored, she can make Concubine Xuan very jealous, which shows that Niangniang must have her own advantages."
After listening to Yan'er's words, Concubine Lan slowly walked to the chair and sat down, and said lightly: "Hanshu? Biography of Mrs. Lee? Youyun: The husband is a man who does things with sex, and the color is declining and Aichi is gracious. Although my sister is beautiful and fragrant, she can't escape the day of old age and decay. If the younger sister can't keep the emperor's brother's heart for a long time, then I'm afraid that the fate of the child in my sister's womb will be very bumpy in the future. ”
"It seems that although my sister does not leave the house, she already knows everything about the outside." Yan'er also smiled softly.
Concubine Lan didn't look at Yan'er, just picked up the teacup on the table and tasted it slowly.
"Entering the palace is not a voluntary thing for my sister, compared to being trapped in this cage-like palace wall, my sister is more willing to live with the sky and the earth. It's a pity that I'm in it now, and I can't help myself with too many things. Although my sister doesn't want to compete for favor, I can't guarantee that no one else will murder my sister and the child in the womb. My sister heard that my sister could be alone in the complicated battles of this harem, so I came to ask my sister for some advice. Yan'er looked at Concubine Lan and said earnestly.
