"Princess!" Chu Xiangwan saw Princess Zhuang Hua leaving, and shouted, she couldn't let Princess Zhuang Hua leave.

"Is there anything else going on with the imperial concubine?" Princess Zhuang Hua turned around and asked.

"Xiang Wan suddenly felt unwell, can you ask the princess to accompany me back to Guanju Palace?" Chu Xiangwan smiled reluctantly, her face was indeed not good-looking.

"This-" Princess Zhuang Hua hesitated, she had heard of the discord between the Queen Mother and the Imperial Concubine when she came back this time, but she didn't want to interfere. After all, the Queen Mother is the current master of the harem.

"Princess, the imperial concubine is pregnant with a dragon, and she can't be sloppy, so let's go back with the princess." This was the first thing Ren Ziqian said tonight, and Princess Zhuang Hua glanced at him suspiciously. He had always ignored her royal affairs, why would he speak at this time.

"Princess, where is the Queen Mother—" Mama Li moved out of the Queen Mother again as an excuse.

"The Queen Mother, you said that the imperial concubine is unwell, and she will reply another day, and the palace will accompany the imperial concubine back to the palace first," Seeing that Mama Li's face changed and wanted to refute, Princess Zhuang Hua glanced at her and continued, "The imperial concubine is pregnant with the prince, and she is the person on the tip of the emperor's heart, if something goes wrong, can you afford it?" "Even if she doesn't want to be involved, but when she speaks to the horse, Princess Zhuang Hua will leave Chu Xiangwan behind, but she doesn't know how serious it is that she interfered tonight.

Mama Li didn't dare to argue anymore, so she could only lower her head and swallow her anger: "Yes, that old slave will go back to the Queen Mother now." After speaking, she took someone back the same way in a hurry, she couldn't take Chu Xiangwan away at the moment, she had to go back immediately to report to the Queen Mother.

"Imperial concubine, this palace will accompany you back." Princess Zhuang Hua took Chu Xiangwan's hand, turned back to Ren Ziqian and said, "Let's go back to the house first, and the palace will return immediately." ”

Ren Ziqian glanced at Chu Xiangwan inadvertently, and said to Princess Zhuang Hua with a smile: "I'll go with the princess, it's getting late, and I don't worry about the princess alone." ”

Princess Zhuang Hua smiled shyly, completely lacking the solemn and serious appearance she had when facing Mama Li before, Chu Xiangwan could see that she cared about Ren Ziqian very much, otherwise she would not have helped her because of Ren Ziqian's words.

When the group returned to Guanju Palace, Huangfu Jingwen was already waiting in the palace. He saw Chu Xiangwan and Huangfu Zhixia entering together, and immediately stepped forward to take Chu Xiangwan's hand: "Why have you been out for so long?" If you don't come back, I'll go to Cihe Palace to find you. ”

Princess Zhuang Hua laughed and deliberately teased: "Oh, it seems that I, the imperial sister, have a lot of things, and I have lost a chance for the emperor to perform in front of beauties." Pony, do you say yes? ”

Ren Ziqian was stunned for a moment, he covered his lips with his hands, coughed and said, "Yes, the emperor does love the imperial concubine very much. ”

The princess laughed. Chu Xiangwan felt a little embarrassed.

"Xiangwan, come and sit down." Huangfu Jingwen shook his head with a smile, ignoring Princess Zhuang Hua's jokes, but nervously helped Chu Xiangwan to sit down. He raised his hand at Princess Zhuang Hua: "Sister Huang, since you are here, it is better to sit here with the horse for a while." So he turned to Qian'er and said, "Tea." ”

The four of them all sat down, and Huangfu Jingwen asked: "Qian'er obviously said that it was summoned by the queen mother, why did the imperial sister come back with Xiang Wan?" ”

"Oh, I happened to meet on the road, and I felt that I was very close to the imperial concubine, so I came back with me." Princess Zhuang Hua was born in the royal family, and she knew everything about the affairs in the harem, and when she saw Chu Xiangwan's eyes, she knew that Chu Xiangwan didn't want Huangfu Jingwen to know what happened tonight. Besides, she is already a married daughter, so there is no need to wade into the troubled waters of the harem again.

"Oh, there are not many people in this harem who can enter the eyes of the imperial sister, to the evening, you can replace the wine with water, and toast the imperial sister with a glass." Huangfu Jingwen said to Chu Xiangwan with a smile.

"Don't don't, don't don't, the emperor said this, but the meaning of this palace is higher than the top, which makes outsiders think that this palace is a difficult person to get along with." The princess deliberately misinterpreted, and laughed again, "The emperor has been talking about how good the imperial concubine is at the banquet all night, and the palace has long been yearning for it. ”

"The imperial sister has always made fun of me and Xiang Wan, according to me, the concubine and the imperial sister are also harmonious, these two people are as good as one person, and they have not been separated since they entered the palace." Huangfu Jingwen did not let go of Princess Zhuang Hua.

"Your Majesty—" Princess Zhuang Hua complained and shouted, as soon as she mentioned Ren Ziqian, she was embarrassed, and she looked like a newly married couple.

"Wechen has been blessed with God, and it is Wechen's responsibility to take care of the princess." Ren Ziqian owes himself and speaks seriously.

"Well, my father really didn't pick the wrong person, and I am very relieved to have a horse to take care of the imperial sister." Huangfu Jingwen and this eldest sister have a very good relationship, although the princess does not like the queen mother, but she still loves her younger brothers since she was a child, especially Huangfu Jingwen and Huangfu Jingyao, she loves the most. One is kind-hearted, the other is gentle, and both of them have the most dazzling aura of the royal family.

Princess Zhuang Hua was relieved, she looked at Ren Ziqian affectionately, and said with a smile: "He is indeed very good." ”

"The princess and the colt are really a couple, which is enviable." Chu Xiangwan said from the bottom of his heart. When Ren Ziqian heard this, he stiffened and glanced up at Chu Xiangwan.

Chu Xiangwan continued: "The concubine replaces wine with water, and I toast you with a glass. ”

"Hey, the water is cold, let Qian'er give you another cup to drink, although it is early summer, but you are pregnant, don't be greedy for cold and hurt your body." Huangfu Jingwen stopped Chu Xiangwan's hand holding the cup and called Qian'er to change it again.

"Tut-tut, the imperial concubine is still envious of the palace and the concubine, you look at the emperor's careful appearance, even I, the imperial sister, will be jealous when I look at it on the side." Princess Zhuang Hua couldn't help laughing.

"I and Xiang Wan are the same as the imperial sister and the concubine." Huangfu Jingwen smiled softly, gently stroked Chu Xiangwan's hand, and held it in the palm of his hand. This is for Princess Zhuang Hua, but in fact, it is not for herself.

Chu Xiangwan glanced at Huangfu Jingwen, and also smiled softly, but there was a little bitterness in this smile that was hidden, and no one knew.

"Okay, then the palace will pay tribute to the emperor and the imperial concubine, I hope that people will last a long time, and they will be together for thousands of miles." Four people raised their glasses at the same time, but this sentence may have a different meaning in everyone's heart.

After Princess Zhuanghua and the concubine left the Guanju Palace, they got into the carriage and went straight to the old mansion of the Taifu in the old capital. Huangfu Zhixia sat in the carriage, holding Ren Ziqian's arm, leaning his head on Ren Ziqian's shoulder, and suddenly said slowly: "Don Ma, I am very happy tonight, the emperor has been close to me since childhood, but I also know that although he is the crown prince, he is only at the mercy of the queen mother everywhere. All of this is probably thanks to the imperial concubine, only a man can become a strong man if he has a beloved woman to protect. ”

Seeing that Ren Ziqian didn't react, Huangfu Zhixia raised his head and shook Ren Ziqian lightly: "What do you say, donkey?" ”

"Oh," Ren Ziqian came back to his senses, but his eyes were looking at the fast-moving things outside the window, "What the princess said is very true, only when a man has a beloved woman, will he become fearless, and even do many things that he did not dare to do before. ”

"I hope that the horse can treat the palace like the emperor treats the imperial concubine." Huangfu Zhixia looked at Ren Ziqian with burning eyes.

Ren Ziqian didn't say a word, but slowly, kissed Huangfu Zhixia's forehead, and took her into his arms.
