Chapter Fifty-Six: Living in Fengxiang Palace
Many ministers are like seeing ghosts, but they didn't expect the emperor, who has always been cold, to have such a gentle side.
"The courtiers are frightened, and His Majesty Lao is concerned." A touch of coldness swept through the depths of Lan Wan'er's eyes, and when she saw the emperor take another step forward, she stepped back silently.
The emperor naturally saw her movements, smiled, and continued: "Lord Lin is my beloved minister, do your best for my dynasty, you have been raised in the countryside since you were a child, he owes you a little bit, and I should care about you a little." ”
Lan Wan'er tugged at the corners of her mouth slightly, but did not speak, but she was pondering the meaning of his words in her heart.
This emperor doesn't say that he has a bad temper, but he is not so easy to speak, and he is a little ruthless when he uses means, just look at the fate of Lan Wan'er before.
Now that I see her appearance, I know that she is not Lan Xuan'er, but she is still so gentle with her.
"Since you have come to the palace, let's stay here for a few more days, and the scenery in the palace can also be seen for a long time." The emperor spoke again.
As soon as these words came out, many people were shocked.
However, before everyone could react, another sentence from the emperor made a storm in the hearts of everyone present.
"Spread my will, sort out Fengxiang Palace, and give Lin Juan a place to live."
Fengxiang Palace is a place where the concubines of the queen are qualified to live in the past dynasties.
Now, the emperor actually let a strange woman who is exactly the same as the former queen live in it, what is the purpose of this!
Lan Xuan'er's breathing was almost stuck, she didn't expect the emperor to be so shameless, and she was naturally familiar with Fengxiang Palace.
And now, she must not let the emperor see the slightest.
"Your Majesty, Fengxiang Palace is a place where the queen can live, this girl is nameless and pointless, how can she live in that place?" Lan Yingying stood up in shock and blurted out without thinking.
Lan Wan'er showed surprise at the right time: "Your Majesty, Fengxiang Palace is a place where only queens can live, and the status of a courtier is really unattainable, so it's better to give the courtiers a side hall to live in." ”
The emperor seemed to have made up his mind: "If I say you can live, you can live." ”
Lan Wan'er opened her mouth and didn't say anything.
If he continues to say more, lest the emperor be suspicious, and besides, he is not so difficult to guarantee now that he is not because he still has doubts about her identity and is tempting.
Moreover, there is now a person who is even more unstable than her.
"Your Majesty, the rules in the palace have always been strict, this girl is the first time to enter the palace, I don't know anything about the rules in the palace, what if something happens." Lan Yingying argues with reason.
She thought about it for a long time, read it for a long time, and looked forward to the place for a long time, but it was blocked because of her identity, and now a country man suddenly appeared, just because she had the same appearance as Lan Wan'er, she could live in Fengxiang Palace.
Why!
"I've made up my mind, you don't have to say it anymore." The emperor didn't look at Lan Yingying, but just looked at Lan Wan'er fixedly, and Lan Wan'er, who was looking directly, scolded the emperor's ancestors for eighteen generations.
"Your Majesty, please think twice! Even if you really love her and want to give her a good place, then Huaning Palace is not bad, the layout inside is already set according to the rank of the concubine, let her learn the rules there first, if you really like the emperor in the future, she will also understand the rules by then, and it will not be too late to let her go! ”
Lan Yingying didn't give up, and said bitterly, her heart was already half cold.
She didn't understand why God wanted to treat her so unfairly, tonight she was suppressed everywhere by this person she could step on the soles of her feet, and the plans she had prepared in advance were destroyed one by one.
"Imperial Concubine, when will it be your turn to dictate the decision I made!" The emperor's cold voice came, making Lan Yingying's face pale.
She knew he was furious.
But she is not reconciled, how can she be reconciled.
"The concubine didn't dare, but the concubine felt that Fengxiang Palace was such a noble place, even if she wanted to live, she should have someone with noble status to live." Lan Yingying said.
The emperor snorted coldly, and finally turned his gaze to Lan Yingying.
"Honorable status? Where is the honor, and where is the poverty? Does the imperial concubine want to say that only you can live in Fengxiang Palace? ”
Lan Yingying hurriedly shook her head and said: "That's not what the concubine meant, the concubine..."
"Shut up!" The emperor shouted angrily: "Imperial concubine, I remember that you are generous and benevolent on weekdays, and I don't want to worry too much about you tonight, but you have repeatedly been unable to get along with the daughter of the Lin family, you should not be worthy of the word generosity and benevolence!" ”
Lan Yingying panicked, this was the first time the emperor had lost his temper with her this month.
What the hell is going on here?
"Please let the emperor know, the concubine is just afraid that you will be deceived!" Lan Yingying shouted.
"I see that you are jealous, and you can't see that others are better than you! Come on, take the imperial concubine down, be grounded for a month, and reflect on it! The emperor scolded sharply, and Lan Yingying slumped on the chair, unable to believe it.
Lan Wan'er gloated and looked at Lan Yingying's empty appearance, and her heart was happy.
Although it was a bit unexpected for her to be arranged to live in Fengxiang Palace, it was not in vain to see this woman suffer another blow.
Lin Cheng watched all this worriedly, until Lan Yingying was taken away, then he got up and spoke: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Longen, it's just that the little girl has just been picked up from the countryside, and she is not familiar with the capital, and her temperament is still a little wild, so I beg Your Majesty to let the old minister take the little girl back." ”
His words were sincere, and he showed a reluctant look of his daughter, and many people present were already moved, feeling that the emperor's move was too much.
However, the emperor has always been hard-hearted, and now that he has taken a fancy to Lan Xuan'er, how could he let her go back.
"Lord Lin is too worried, I see that this girl is thoughtful and reasonable, as for the rules, since she grew up in the countryside, she doesn't have to be constrained by the rules." The emperor blocked Lin Cheng's words one by one.
The front is better, but as for the last sentence, it scared many people.
What does it mean to not be bound by rules? It means that Lan Wan'er can completely let herself go in the palace in the future?
When did the emperor become so talkative?
"The little girl is young, she doesn't deserve such treatment from the emperor!" Lin Cheng could only plead.
It really became more and more outrageous, so Lin Cheng had to worry about what accidents would happen to Lan Wan'er in the palace.
If the emperor or the Lan family found out her identity, and she was in prison at that time, he would have nothing to do if he wanted to save her.
"Master Lin doesn't have to worry, I just left her to play in the palace for a few days and let her go back, not let her live in the palace permanently, and after a few days, I will send someone to send her back." The emperor said.
"Daddy, it's the first time my daughter has come to the palace, and I want to take a good look in this palace, this opportunity is rare, Daddy, you can rest assured, the emperor will protect me." Lan Wan'er spoke.
Then, he looked at the emperor playfully and asked, "Your Majesty, you won't let your courtiers get hurt, right?" ”
The emperor was amused by this expression, and said, "Naturally not, with me protecting you, no one dares to do anything to you." ”
said this, but he wondered a little in his heart, could it really be that he was thinking too much?
In the past, Lan Wan'er's temperament would never have this side.
"Daddy, you also heard it, the emperor has already said that it's okay, that is, it's okay, you can rest assured, everything is fine with your daughter." Lan Wan'er smiled and spoke.
Lin Cheng was helpless, looking at Lan Xuan'er's eyes were still full of worry: "That daddy is not around, you take care of yourself, and if you have anything, send someone to send a message to daddy." ”
"Got it, Daddy!" Lan Wan'er obediently agreed.
"Lin Cheng, your daughter has a big opportunity! This kind of treatment is envied by others, so you can rest assured! A minister who was good friends with Lin Cheng looked at him and comforted him.
"The emperor promised this in front of everyone, and he will only treat your daughter well, not much." Another minister chimed in.
Lin Cheng nodded coyly, didn't reply, and couldn't even pull out a hint of a fake smile.
It's all thought that Lan Wan'er is about to fly on the branches and become a phoenix, but who knows, she is walking on the edge of the cliff, and her life will be in danger if she is not careful.
Moreover, with the current emperor's mind, if Lan Xuan'er's identity is discovered, it will definitely be an even more tragic death than four years ago.
Just when everyone's eyes were attracted by Lin Cheng and Lan Xuan'er, in another corner, a figure had quietly retreated from the palace banquet and walked in the direction where Lan Yingying had been taken away.
Isn't it Lan Yifeng who didn't make a sound for the entire palace banquet?
It was too embarrassing to hate his daughter before, so that he didn't dare to say a word and was sprayed with blood, and he even tore Lin Juan into eight pieces in his heart.
But after seeing Lin Juan's and Lan Juan'er's identical appearances, he didn't have time to care about everything before.
These two people were so similar that he was very worried, so he looked carefully at the Lin Wan from behind and looked up and down.
Finally, a conclusion is drawn.
Lin Juan is Lin Juan, and Lan Juan'er is Lan Juan'er.
These two people are more similar in appearance, demeanor, temperament, tone of speech, and eyes, none of which are similar.
It is said that the nature of the country is easy to change and difficult to change, even if a person changes her appearance, then the demeanor and bearing she has cultivated since birth cannot be changed, especially some extremely subtle details.
But this Lin Xuan has no shadow of Lan Wan'er at all.
Just now when he saw Lan Yingying confronting the emperor everywhere, he wanted to remind him but he was powerless, it was impossible on the surface, so he could only make a look in the dark.
However, Lan Yingying focused all her attention on Lan Wan'er, and she didn't look at him at all.
Thinking so, Lan Yifeng had already arrived outside Lan Yingying's palace.
The entrance was guarded by four guards.
Before he could step in, he was stopped: "Prime Minister, the imperial concubine is now grounded, and you can't go in without the emperor's order." ”
Lan Yifeng took out a piece of silver from his arms, threw it into the guard's hand, and said, "The prime minister has something to say to the imperial concubine, let the prime minister in." ”
