Immediately after, a scarlet figure walked down in the carriage, a slightly bulky body, a haggard and pale complexion, Ding Juming walked at the end, without Wan'er's treatment at all, so she could only follow Lin Donghe and Wan'er step by step.

"Fifth brother. Don't come unharmed. ”

Lin Dong took a few steps forward and greeted Lin Dongyao with a smile.

A sentence that is not harmful, but contains too many deep meanings.

In the past six months, there have been problems with his contact points in the four countries, and he doesn't believe that it has nothing to do with Lin Dongyao and Linghu Full Moon.

"Don't come unharmed." Lin Dongyao responded in a deep voice, and immediately walked past Lin Donghe with the full moon.

"Fifth brother, it's been half a year, why haven't you and your younger siblings moved at all? Later, the imperial grandmother will ask, has the fifth brother figured out how to answer? ”

Lin Donghe spoke behind Lin Dongyao, and he naturally pointed to the fact that the full moon's stomach had not moved for a long time.

Lin Dongyao's footsteps stopped, and he didn't look back, speaking leisurely and comfortably,

"It is extremely difficult for a woman to give birth, so before that, it is natural to be fully prepared, there are not many heirs, and they can appear at the right time, otherwise what is the difference between one in the east and one in the west? Isn't it? Second brother. ”

When the words fell, Lin Dongyao took the full moon's hand and walked away.

Leave Lin Donghe, whose face was distorted, behind.

"Lord, don't be angry, how did this King of Rouhuai speak? Doesn't this clearly insult you? I don't know what to do! This inheritance is a major event in life, his own princess's stomach is not angry, and he also slanders the prince and his concubines, prince, can you finish it! ”

Wan'er relied on the fact that she was the concubine sent by the Queen Mother to Lin Donghe, and she was favored by Lin Donghe, and she didn't know the height of the sky in the palace on weekdays, and it was even more common for Ding Juming, the princess, to be trampled under her feet.

Ding Juming didn't speak, and stood silently behind the two.

She heard Lin Dongyao's words just now! Lin Dongyao scolded too right! Lin Donghe is not as good as a beast!

"This is the palace, not as good as the palace, you still have to learn from the princess when you talk and behave, not you can say anything."

Lin Donghe frowned and reminded Wan'er, but he deliberately compared Ding Juming, so that Wan'er would not have any dissatisfaction with Lin Donghe, but instead pressed all her grievances on Ding Juming.

"Knowing the prince, the concubines will pay attention."

In front of Lin Donghe, Wan'er didn't dare to make a mistake, but she was very unconvinced in her heart, since she couldn't do anything in the palace, she would deal with Ding Juming after returning to the palace.

The three of them, each pregnant with a ghost, walked into Cining Palace.

In the main hall of Cining Palace, a group of concubines arrived early, all around the Queen Mother to ask for warmth, the triennial draft in this palace is about to start, the draft list is in the hands of the Queen Mother, everyone is in danger of this concubine, and the reason why the new person comes to the old person to cry is stupid.

Therefore, everyone is trying their best to please the table, hoping that they can accompany the Queen Mother on the day of the draft, so that they can understand the level and background of this year's show girls in advance.

But as Full Moon and Lin Dongyao entered the main hall, Lin Donghe brought Ding Juming and Wan'er in, and everyone sat back in their seats in an orderly manner, focusing on Full Moon and the others.

After everyone said goodbye, they took their seats one by one.

The Queen Mother glanced at Wan'er's stomach and nodded with satisfaction.

It seems that the concubine she chose for Donghe is very popular with him.

As for Ding Juming, as long as she is safe, she will always be Princess Anze.

"Dongyao, a while ago, the king of the Western Regions sent some expensive medicinal materials from the Western Domain, and the mourning family knows that your typhoid fever has always been repeatedly not improving, so you can bring these medicinal materials back. The body is well-healed, but it is necessary to bring good news to the mourning family. Look at your second brother, the princess and the concubine are happy, you and the prince really broke the hearts of the mourning family. ”

The Queen Mother felt sorry for Lin Dongyao, and if she had a good one, she would naturally think about him and the prince.

It's just that Lin Dongyao's back injury didn't take long to recover, and if it weren't for the child, it would be forgivable, why didn't this prince know how to work hard?

The Queen Mother's words were in the ears of the queen, and she was unspeakably harsh and embarrassed.

She doesn't know what the prince is busy with all day! The crown princess also has it, and the concubine has it too! Why is there no movement?

It stands to reason that if you almost don't leave the door of the Prince's Mansion, there is a chance that-

Now Ding Juming and the concubine that the Queen Mother rewarded Lin Donghe with are all pregnant in their wombs, if they are born first, they will be the emperor's first grandson or granddaughter! Whether it is the prince's child or not, he will be favored for at least a while.

If this prince doesn't hurry up, the limelight will be stolen by Lin Donghe.

It's useless for the queen to be in a hurry.

"Grandma Huang, just when I entered the palace, I heard you talking about your grandson, your grandson has been following the rules very much recently, I don't know where you provoked Grandma Huang?"

The gentle and moist voice sounded slowly, and Lin Jian, who was dressed in a dark yellow golden silk auspicious cloud brocade robe, strode in, her face was like a crown of jade, and her smile was bright, compared to Lin Dongyao's cold and calm, she had a more warm and intoxicating temperament, and she was more free and easy than Lin Donghe's cautiousness.

The eyes of the concubines wandered back and forth on the crown prince and the two princes, their eyes full of lamentation and longing.

The emperor's sons are all extraordinary, but it's a pity that they won't look at them more. There are three thousand in this harem, and the truly favored concubines can be counted on one hand, the emperor is very fond and busy with government affairs all year round, otherwise there will not be only a few princes, and they may not be favored by the emperor once a year, most of the time they are spent in waiting day after day, and the heart that has been waiting for a long time has withered.

Now that the new show girls are about to enter the palace, the days of their favor are even more distant.

As soon as the crown prince came, the queen mother was even more interested.

The Queen Mother obviously still prefers Er Ruo, and deliberately called Er Ruo to her side and asked with concern,

"Erruo, after the wedding, you have really changed a lot, you only know that you accompany the prince in the prince's mansion, and you don't often go into the palace to visit the mourning family, do you have the prince, and put the mourning family behind?"

The Queen Mother said, patting the back of Er Ruo's hand.

Er Ruo smiled shyly and said softly,

"The Queen Mother, Er Ruo has rarely left the Prince's Mansion in the past six months, has been learning embroidery in the courtyard, a few days ago just completed a pair of Su embroidery, specially brought to the Queen Mother, and I hope that the Queen Mother will not dislike Er Ruo's vulgar embroidery."

Er Ruo said, in the surprised eyes of the queen mother, let the maid unfold the embroidery.

"Phoenix Yu Fei? Good! ”

If the embroidered cloak is unfolded, the phoenix Yu Fei is lifelike, and the nine-tailed phoenix is like a living, which is amazing.

"I didn't expect that now that you are concentrating on taking care of the prince, there will be such a change, and the mourning family is really gratified."

The Queen Mother has also seen a lot of exquisite Suzhou embroidery, and it is indeed rare to embroider the phoenix Yufei so colorful and solemn.

The other concubines were also envious and joined the ranks of flattery.

Only Concubine An sat steadily, drinking tea and watching the play, silently.

Lin Dongyao, who was leisurely drinking tea, turned his head and asked softly about the full moon,

"What do you think?" The smile on his lips was shallow, as if he was whispering to her.

"Should I say that the princess is gifted, or something else?" Full Moon lowered her head and smiled, her eyes full of sneer

To be able to get such embroidery, even if you start learning from a few years old, it will take more than ten years of skill, this phoenix Yu Fei is indeed embroidered, but not all, the finishing touch is on the phoenix's eyes and nine tails, these two points are by no means Erruo can be completed.

"Lord Wang, let's wait and see what happens." The full moon whispered softly in his ear, Lin Dongyao was naturally very useful, his cold pupils narrowed, and he nodded clearly.

"Erruo, then you can't just care about embroidering a cloak for the mourning family, and ignore the prince, the mourning family is waiting for your good news."

The queen mother has high hopes for Er Ruo, this is the crown princess selected by her and the emperor, and the responsibility of opening up branches for the prince now falls on her.

"If you remember the teachings of the Queen Mother."

Erruo nodded obediently, and judged the two of them with the lively conversation with Herrrow before.

At noon, the Queen Mother left everyone to dine in Cining Palace, and before the banquet was held, Full Moon and Lin Dongyao went to Xuanji Palace first to meet Concubine An alone.

Qiu Rong was also in Xuanji Palace, and when she saw Concubine An coming in with Full Moon and Lin Dongyao, Qiu Rong immediately greeted her.

"Mother, princess, princess. Qiu Rong has already prepared the refreshments, please! ”

Qiu Rong has always been clean and neat, leaving no flaws, so she can be liked by Concubine An.

"Full moon sit." Concubine An greeted the full moon to set, Lin Dongyao sat beside the full moon, and Qiu Rong stood behind Concubine An to serve wholeheartedly.

"Dongyao, full moon, I won't go to the Queen Mother's luncheon, you can go for me." Concubine An is indifferent by nature, and she especially doesn't like palace banquets full of noise and welcome.

If it weren't for the full moon entering the door, she wouldn't have attended an occasion like today.

"Understood, Princess." Full Moon nodded slightly.

Qiu Rong personally poured tea for the three of them, with a light smile on her face and elegant manners.

"Lord Wang, I heard that you are unwell, this is a mild catechu, nourishing the stomach and warming the body, you can taste it." Qiu Rong brewed a pot of catechu for Lin Dongyao alone.

"No need, I already drank it when I was in the car." Lin Dongyao waved his hand, his tone indifferent.

"Ahh A trace of disappointment flashed in Qiu Rong's eyes, and she immediately retreated silently behind Concubine An.

"Mother, it turns out that the full moon tea is no worse than the mother's craftsmanship, and you can taste the high-quality tea she brewed on the bumpy carriage, do you think the emperor is very blessed?"

Lin Dongyao did drink the tea boiled by the full moon, and since he drank the tea boiled by the full moon, the others were tasteless.

When he was in the palace, he was really jokingly teasing the full moon, whether he had drugged the tea, why he was fascinated by one taste, and then tasted the same wax as other teas.

At that time, her answer was that she was really going to be drugged, and she didn't see him give her all his net worth, leaving nothing behind.

Lin Dongyao just smiled when he heard it, in fact, he really wanted to tell her that he had already prepared all his net worth, and sooner or later it would be hers.

Qiu Rong on the side quietly looked at Lin Dongyao, who was full of praise for Linghu Full Moon, and a trace of bitterness flashed in her eyes.

"Lord, don't you still want to go to the imperial study to see the emperor? I'm waiting for you here. The full moon reminded Lin Dongyao softly.

He sighed lightly and said leisurely,

"This king remembers, but I just want to stay with you and my mother for a while, you woman really don't understand this king's mind, and push this king out, my father and I see you almost every day, are you still worried that your father won't see me for a while, will I be in a hurry?"

Lin Dongyao's words made Concubine An laugh too.

If she had stayed before, she would never believe that her cold-hearted son would say such light-hearted and humorous words, but now with Linghu Full Moon, it is different.

"Lord Wang, go quickly." The full moon urged him seriously.

Concubine An glanced at her just now, obviously she had something to say to her alone, if she didn't send Lin Dongyao away, how could Concubine An speak.

"Alright, I'll be back later." With that, Lin Dongyao got up and left.

Concubine An retreated, leaving only Full Moon and Qiu Rong.

For some reason, Qiu Rong was a little nervous and a little expectant.

Full Moon frowned, and then lowered her eyes and tasted tea peacefully.

"Full moon, seeing that you and Dongyao get along well, this palace has nothing else to ask for, I just hope that you can continue to get along like this, as for the child's problem, this is not in a hurry, just let it be."

As soon as Concubine An's words came out, Qiu Rong's expression changed significantly.

The full moon sensed something, but didn't ask much, but followed Concubine An's words,

"Thank you for your tolerance, and the full moon is grateful. The full moon will definitely take care of the prince and never disappoint the high hopes of the mother. ”

"This palace believes in you, so even if the crown prince and Anze have concubines in the palace, this palace is not in a hurry to arrange for Dongyao, but Qiu Rong is not young, it's time to find a good family."

Concubine An said, raising her hand to signal Qiu Rong to come to her.

Qiu Rong's face was a little ugly, Concubine An's arrangement at the moment was completely different from before.

"Does the concubine have any good arrangements?" Full Moon pretended not to understand Concubine An's intentions and looked at her suspiciously.

"Qiu Rong has already passed the age of the draft, and as soon as she enters the palace, it is as deep as the sea, and the palace is reluctant to delay her future, and there is no suitable seat for her in the palace, so-"

Before Concubine An could finish speaking, Qiu Rong knelt on the ground with a thud.

"Niangniang, Qiu Rong doesn't want to get married yet, Qiu Rong is willing to be the prince's sister and a righteous daughter for the rest of her life."

Qiu Rong had already heard the meaning of Concubine An's words, and she would not allow her to Lin Dongyao to be a side concubine, even if it was a concubine, it was impossible.

As long as she doesn't stay by Lin Dongyao's side, she would rather die alone.

By now, the full moon has seen which one Concubine An is singing.

Concubine An must have mentioned her marriage to Qiu Rong before, and Concubine An also knew Qiu Rong's thoughts that the key was on Lin Dongyao, if he didn't agree, Concubine An would not agree.

But Qiu Rong didn't know what method she used before, so Concubine An temporarily agreed.

"Miss Qiu, how can a woman not marry in her life? If it weren't for the fact that you are the prince's sister, with your intelligence, I think you can enter the palace as a concubine, but unfortunately, the sister is the sister, Miss Qiu still obeys the mother's wishes. ”

Full Moon softly persuaded Qiu Rong, and her tone was indifferent.

No wonder there were rumors before that Lin Dongyao would marry Qiu Rong as a side concubine, which seems to be groundless.

"Okay, okay, you girl is really stubborn, since you don't have ideas, the palace is not forced, the princess will also say it very clearly, in the future, you will continue to be the princess's sister and the palace daughter, if you have a good home, the palace will make arrangements, you can't brush off the palace's kindness."

Concubine An looked helpless, and reached out to help Qiu Rong get up.

"Yes, mother."

"Princess Xie reminds that Qiu Rong must abide by her duty."

Qiu Rong is well versed in the hearts of the harem and the way of survival, so she can naturally understand the side knocks of the full moon.

"Where is Miss Qiu, we are just gossiping, how can we remind it! Miss Qiu accompanies her mother here, goes to the yard in the full moon, and waits for the prince. ”

After speaking, Full Moon got up leisurely and exited the room after the blessing.

After Concubine An finished performing this play, she must have something to remind Qiu Rong that it was time for her to leave Xuanji Palace.

――

After the full moon left, Qiu Rong knelt on the ground, sweating like rain.

Concubine An didn't speak for a long time.

Qiu Rong closed her eyes and said with tears in her eyes,

"Qiu Rong has failed to live up to her expectations, and she is willing to pay the price for what she has done."

Without too much explanation, Qiu Rong already understood that Concubine An knew something.

"Qiu Rong, this palace treats you like your own daughter, and I remember that you saved this palace, so I don't owe you a point, but you shouldn't have calculated this palace and the prince. If this matter is known to the prince, he will not keep you in front of you! ”

Concubine An is telling the truth.

What Qiu Rong did behind her back, at present, only she knows.

"Before Dongyao got married, you made people spread rumors outside the palace that the prince would marry you as a side concubine, trying to provoke the relationship between Dongyao and the full moon, what you did was not this, if it weren't for you, how could Linghu Manyue's eyes have problems?

This palace has always believed in you, and never doubted whether you arrived in Kyoto early, if it weren't for Wei Feng's discovery that there was a medicinal powder on your body that was poisoned by the full moon of the fox that day, this palace would still be in the dark! So you secretly dealt with Wei Feng, so that his whereabouts are unknown now, and he doesn't know whether he lives or dies!

Qiu Rong, you can like Dongyao or love him! But you can't hurt the people he loves the most! Even the mother concubine of this palace can accept that Linghu Manyue is the most important person in Dongyao's mind, why can't you accept it? If it weren't for the people of this palace who accidentally found Wei Feng lying at the bottom of the cliff and was seriously injured, this palace would still be kept in the dark by you! Do you know that even if you succeed in this qiē, it will be useless! Hongu will only take Toyao's choice first!

Even if Linghu Manyue's eyes will never be visible, as long as Dongyao opens his mouth, this palace will not disown this daughter-in-law! But you, Qiu Rong, took the opportunity to get close to Er Ruo and moved your hands and feet in her medicinal powder, just waiting for her to borrow a knife to kill someone when she had a dispute with the full moon! But you still haven't lost your conscience, but you have poisoned the eyes of the full moon, and you didn't think about taking her life!

But since you have been discovered by Wei Feng, you should have gone to the palace to confess your guilt one step earlier, instead of sending someone to hunt down Wei Feng and instruct him to be seriously injured and comatose! Qiu Rong, your love is so terrible, how can this palace still keep you by your side? ”

Concubine An's words, every word, like the tip of an incomparably sharp knife, pierced Qiu Rong's heart at once.

At this moment, Qiu Rong really had nothing to say.

But she did it all for Lin Dongyao.

"Niangniang, Qiu Rong is not a femme fatale, she approached Er Ruo in disguise and changed her medicine powder in order to force Er Ruo to show up, Qiu Rong's brother was killed by Er Ruo, Qiu Rong knows that Er Ruo can't die now! Qiu Rong could only use other methods to force Erruo to become ill and show her true face.

But what Qiu Rong never expected was that she would injure the princess by mistake! As for the rumor that the princess would marry Qiu Rong as a side concubine, in fact, it was actually done by the prince, and the princess had a deep affection for the princess, but in those days, she had an awkward relationship with the princess, and Qiu Rong didn't dare to ask more about the prince's thoughts, so she could only do it. Niangniang, Qiu Rong really didn't lie to you.

Qiu Rong does like the prince, but Qiu Rong also wants to avenge her brother, her brother went to the Western Regions to do business, and when he saw Princess Erruo, he disappeared, Qiu Rong knew that it was related to Erruo, and later Qiu Rong disguised herself by Erruo's side and stayed in the palace as a palace maid, Qiu Rong found a lot of secrets about Erruo and wanted to force her to show up, so that's why-

Later, Qiu Rong left Er Ruo's side to see Niangniang, but it was indeed Qiu Rong's fault and did not confess to Niangniang. But after Wei Feng discovered Qiu Rong's secret, Qiu Rong originally wanted to come to Niangniang with Doctor Wei to apologize, but who knew that someone was going to rob Doctor Wei of the pill that Doctor Wei had configured for the prince, and Doctor Wei desperately protected the pill and pushed me away, and what happened later was what the princess knew. But Qiu Rong really didn't know that Doctor Wei was at the bottom of the cliff, after Qiu Rong came back, she had been waiting for Doctor Wei to appear, and when he didn't show up, Qiu Rong was lucky, thinking that she could stay with the princess and princess for a day, but who knew that she was still discovered by Niangniang. ”

Qiu Rong's rhetoric was completely different from what Concubine An had suspected before.

Concubine An also found Wei Feng by chance, at that time Wei Feng had been at the bottom of the cliff for many days, Wei Feng said that someone had been secretly taking care of him, but after Concubine An went, she didn't see anyone.

Wei Feng only said that Qiu Rong had changed Er Ruo's medicine, and before he could say anything else, a killer appeared again, Wei Feng suffered a heavy blow, and he was still unconscious.

Concubine An has been hiding this matter from Lin Dongyao.

Before the matter was completely clear, she didn't want to wronged Qiu Rong.

But Wei Feng was always unconscious, she could only hide from Dong Yao that Wei Feng had not returned from collecting medicine, so it was not a way to hide it like this, until today she tested Qiu Rong alone, to allow her to be the concubine, Qiu Rong shyly agreed, she was sure that Qiu Rong really liked Dong Yao.

"Niangniang, Qiu Rong really doesn't know who injured Doctor Wei, after all, it was Qiu Rong who accidentally injured the princess, Qiu Rong is willing to shave off her head and apologize to the princess, I just hope that Niangniang can let Qiu Rong stay by Niangniang's side and make meritorious contributions."

Qiu Rong didn't ask for anything else, just to see Lin Dongyao in the future.

She did do something wrong, but she had no intention of hurting Linghu Full Moon.

"Niangniang, give Qiu Rong another chance, don't sue the prince! Qiu Rong likes the prince, but she doesn't expect to be favored by the prince, Qiu Rong only wants to be able to shoulder him occasionally, so she has nothing else to ask for. ”

Qiu Rong knelt on the ground, already lowering her dignity to the dust.

From childhood sweethearts to girlish feelings, from beginning to end, she only has Lin Dongyao in her eyes.

But now she knows very well that she and him are no longer possible!

But don't deprive her of the right to look at him a few times.

Concubine An didn't expect such a result.

Qiu Rong has been by her side for many years, and her character Concubine An has always been trustworthy, otherwise she would not have waited for a few months to be exposed, if it is really as Qiu Rong said, approaching Er Ruo is not to murder the full moon, but to avenge her brother, then she is indeed guilty of not death!
