Seeing that what she said was good, Lu Yan nodded and said, "My sister is right, it is true that several official wives have come to visit me with gifts, but I have declined, I don't want to make trouble for my sister." Later, Lord Yuan told me that I was not allowed to be involved in this matter, so I have closed my door recently. ”

Yao Duran smiled: "Okay." Ignore them, I really can't take the risk to have anything to do with them for petty profits, behind each of their official wives is a powerful family, and having anything to do with them is equivalent to having something to do with the previous dynasty, I don't think I'm smart enough to hide from His Majesty's eyes. ”

Lu Yan nodded, silently sipped his tea, and didn't speak for a long time.

Just when Yao Duran wanted to ask her what was wrong, Lu Yan opened her mouth at this time, but a pair of beautiful eyes did not look at her, but still stared at the tea cup, and the whole person revealed a trace of depression.

"Sister, actually...... I came to the palace today, I followed the instructions of Lord Yuan, and made a special trip to the palace to bring a message to my sister, Lord Yuan asked me to tell my sister not to attach to any family, as long as he is in the court one day, he will be my sister's backing in the dark. ”

When Yao Duran heard this, he was secretly surprised! blurted out: "He is ......"

Only then did Lu Yan raise his eyes to look at her, and said softly: "He said that he was for me." ”

Who knew that immediately after, she added, looked at her and asked, "Does my sister believe it?" ”

Yao Duran was suspicious in her heart, and did not find out what she meant. He looked at her for a long time and said, "Why can't you be trusted?" What the hell do you want to say? ”

Lu Yan's gaze no longer evaded, and greeted him calmly: "Sister, there are some things, maybe we were wrong at the beginning." ”

Yao Duran's suspicions deepened: "What's wrong?" ”

Lu Yan avoided answering, and looked at her with a pair of bright eyes rippling with dizziness: "Although some things are wrong, the fault is not my sister, my sister just needs to remember that no matter when and where, my sister will protect my sister and love my sister." ”

Yao Duran was confused by her today, and said slowly: "Lu Yan, you don't want to say it clearly, and I don't force you, but please remember that no matter when and where, I will protect you, love you, and never allow anyone to hurt you." ”

Midori smiled softly and got up to take her leave.

......

The stars and the moon shine, and the night rain knocks on the window.

In the simple and elegant study, Lu Yan holds a tray in his hand and stands in the sandalwood carved window to watch the rain.

Behind the desk, a person sat upright, writing and stopping, without raising his head, and said: "Look at this rain, it will take a while, what are you in a hurry, put down your things and sit and wait." ”

Lu Yan didn't bring an umbrella when she came, but who knew that the rain would fall, and she was immediately trapped in Yuan Mohua's study. She put down the tray in her hand and still came to the window to watch the rain, quiet like a flower that quietly bloomed and withered.

Yuan Mohua finally noticed a trace of abnormality, so he put down the pen, looked up at her back, and asked, "Lu Yan, what's wrong with you today?" ”

The sound of the rain was murmuring, as if it was covering up the heart, and it seemed to be urging the heart. With only a sigh in his heart, Lu Yan blurted out a sentence.

"My lord, are you willing to be the backing of Concubine Chen, is it really for me?"

Yuan Mohua was slightly stunned, and then returned to calm: "Naturally, it's for you." ”

Lu Lang finally gave up the rain curtain outside the window, turned around, and stared at his face with a pair of sparkling eyes.

"Do you like the green diaphragm so much?"

Yuan Mohua lowered his head, picked up the pen and continued to write, and said, "What do you think?" ”

Her expression slowly faded, and there was melancholy and sadness hidden under a closer look. She slowly approached his bookcase, picked up one of his music scores, flipped it gently, flipped through it, and finally stopped on a page, and she said softly: "What is the regret of this song made by adults?" Do you regret that you didn't wait a few more days? Yes, as long as the adults wait a few more days, she will be taken off by Qiao Fengzhi. It's a pity that when you knew that she was Mrs. Qiao, you gave up, but you wanted to maintain a legitimate relationship with her, so you married me and let me be the bridge between you. ”

Her tone was distinctly calm, but it was more shocking than the thunder in the silent night, and it instantly stirred up the turbulent waves in his heart, making him dumbfounded.

She lowered her head and continued to flip through the score: "And who is this song of adults for?" I know that it was her shadow that fell on the hearts of adults. ”

With a bang, she turned it again, the pages were messy, and her tears were welling up, until finally a page on the sheet music was smeared with a little handwriting.

"And for whom is this song written? You met in Fengdu City, she smashed your window and bit your arm, and you've been obsessed with her ever since. With that, she put down the score, and suddenly pulled up his sleeve and quickly lifted it, revealing his arm.

I saw a scar on his arm, which was a circle of circular tooth marks.

Lu Yan smiled sadly: "This scar will be stared at several times a day, and even the injury she gave you will be regarded as a gift, like a treasure." So, the adults really like her, my sister, Concubine Chen. ”

There was silence for a long time, and a sigh rang out, but no words of denial came out of his mouth. At this moment, the earth was shattered, and the big dream finally woke up.

The sound of the rain is still in her ears, but it seems that thousands of strands have fallen on her heart, spreading the coolness in her body unscrupulously, cooling her from the inside out.

Only tears are hot. He hugged her into his arms and wanted to comfort her, but when facing such a calm and sad her, he suddenly felt that thousands of words were pale and powerless.

She leaned on his chest and wept sadly: "My lord, I told my sister before, I don't envy the women of the Heavenly Family, who intrigue and rob her husband all day long. However, I was moved by your heart and betrayed my words for you. I want to be by your side, I want you to like me too, I want to hear you play a song for me, I want to call you husband with confidence, but ...... All this is my dream, you are just using me, using me as a bridge, so that I can maintain a relationship between my sister and my famous place. ”

Yuan Mohua listened silently, thought about it, and could only sigh: "Lu Yan, I'm sorry, I'm sorry for you." ”

His apology, as it sounded at this point, was another kind of admission. He finally admitted that he acquiesced in all her words, and did not refute a word, which shows how correct she said, not a word was wrong.

She cried and hugged his waist tightly, and choked up: "I have already seen the clues, until today, Your Majesty has sent Gonggong Qin to pass on the message to you to avoid suspicion, but you still let me go into the palace to pass the word to my sister, to be her backing." I am sure of your intentions, and of my own pathos. ”

Yuan Mohua muttered: "Lu Yan, I'm sorry for you, it's true, but it's true that I will treat you well for the rest of my life." You will always be my person for as long as you want. ”

Lu Yan's tears became more and more turbulent, and she sobbed: "Husband, I believe you can do it, but can you forget your sister?" She is a woman of the Son of Heaven, Yu Ming, you can't have anything wrong with her, and you can't even provoke a little gossip. In the dark, you can't secretly love her, act in your heart, if you continue like this, sooner or later you will make a mistake, and this step is enough to make you have no place to turn over! ”

"Husband, please be pleased, you resign, let's all leave the capital! The court is sinister, the harem is dark, even a little spark, as long as it is used by someone with a heart, it will become a burning fire! How innocent my sister was at the beginning, how cautious she was in her words and deeds, but she was still dragged into the big case of the concubine in the East Palace. And the husband, who secretly hides such thoughts, how sure can he be that he will not be invaded by the wind and rain and not be calculated by the hearts of the people? Lu Yan really hopes that her husband will live a safe life and be chic and carefree. I hope that my sister will live a safe life and no longer suffer. ”

Yuan Mohua was speechless for a long time, and finally spit out a sentence in her soft sobbing.

"Lu Yan, it is impossible to resign, I also have a sister, my sister is such a son as King Hao, she was telling me when she left, asking me to try my best to protect this nephew, so I can't withdraw from the court."

When he heard this, the only hope left in his heart was extinguished, leaving only darkness and coldness.

At this point, it is useless to say more.

......

After the rain, the sky was clear, and it was a few days in a hurry. It's just that under the national want, Liang Yin's whereabouts are still a mystery, and there is no progress in the search and arrest, which shows that this person is not without his ability. Huo Jingcheng sulked in his heart when he thought about it.

And in the harem, it has been a month since the show girls entered the palace, and they should have learned the rules and etiquette, so the day of the palace election is set today.

The weather at the beginning of October has no intention of cooling down, and it does not become weather, which makes people sink in the spring breeze and do not know the cold for a long time.

When Yao Duran came to the lover platform of Fangfei Palace, the queen, Concubine Jing, and Concubine Shu had already arrived, and the two noble concubines were not in place, so they did not come to accompany the palace selection.

On the open-air lover platform, the fragrant wind is bursting. A group of show girls stood on both sides, all of them were beautiful and fragrant, and they were charming, like clusters of flowers, waiting for the king's picking.

Yao Duran followed the steps to the stage. Today, she is wearing a snow-colored wide-sleeved flowing fairy dress, and her white figure is like a flash in the pan on the lover's platform, blooming in front of people. Her delicate and beautiful little face is flowing with rhyme, and a pair of hazy peach blossom eyes are like spring light, like stars falling on the blue lake. Her beauty lies in the charm, at a glance, the clear air is like a bright moon, take a closer look, the rhyme is condensed and gorgeous, and when you appreciate it again, you have been between a smile and a smile, and gradually feel slightly drunk.

Her arrival stirred the hearts of the show girls on stage. Favorite concubine Yao, who doesn't know? It's just, who has seen it again?

At this moment, I can finally see what kind of woman you want.

Shallow than the surface, beautiful in the bones.

The show girls were very curious about this favorite concubine, and they just wanted to see through it at a glance, but they didn't dare to look at it after all, so they all knelt on the ground and saluted: "The courtiers pay tribute to Concubine Chen." ”

"No courtesy." Her long skirt was swaying, fluttering through the middle, and a pair of beautiful eyes looked at the team of show girls, and finally found that familiar face.

"Sister Xu, is the injury on your hand healed?"

Xu Huanyan looked up at her and said with a smile: "Xie Niangniang cares, the courtier's hand is no longer in trouble." ”

Yao Duran breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, my sister will survive this catastrophe, and she will have a blessing." With that, he smiled and danced to his seat.
