Chapter 184: The Empress's New Favorite
Nanqian Ming Zheng Palace
————————————
Ying Qi received this letter three days later, and when he heard that it was sent from Beiluo, he was still happy for a while, and he was even more patient with his own excitement, and only after burning incense and washing his hands did he choose the best time to carefully open it.
Who knows, it is an unfamiliar font, but the tone of the text is extremely familiar.
The meaning of the full text is probably like this.
Ying Qi, come and see if this young man named Ji Ran has your three-point demeanor, my five-point charm, plus the two points of innocence and naturalness that you and I don't have, no wonder Jin Yan bluntly likes it when he sees one side.
In the past, I thought you were unparalleled in the world, but now it seems that there are talents in the Qingshan generation, and you have been photographed dead on the beach.
Silence......
North Luoqing Palace
————————————
Zhan Nian is in a daze.
Since he sent a letter to Ying Qi a few days ago, his mood has miraculously become much more comfortable. He could think of Ying Qi's black face, and he could predict that the sky would be gloomy for a long time, but he would never have imagined that Ying Qi would give him a letter back.
That's probably what the letter meant.
Zhan Nian, how do you feel on the beach? Do you think you're not dead, so you need me to shoot you again?
Sorry, didn't have time......

Regardless of how the Ming Zheng Palace in Nanqian and the Qingwang Mansion in Beiluo trembled in the roar, the beautiful young age, as the new favorite of the empress, was about to officially enter the stage of the harem.
After the dispersal of the dynasty on this day, the civil and military officials retreated from the Ziji Hall in turn as usual, but when they walked to the door, they suddenly couldn't walk. The people in the back didn't know why, so they went around to the front to look, but they couldn't walk as if they had been immobilized and couldn't walk.
Seeing this situation, Jin Yan asked out loud, but everyone silently made way of a passage. When I looked up, I saw a tall young man standing against the light outside the temple gate, looking forward to it.
Who is this looking for?
The eyes of the people were again on the throne of Jinluan.
Jin Yan walked over suspiciously, and found that it was a young man, and his brows couldn't help frowning slightly. Seeing this, Ji Ran hurriedly took out a candy from his arms, and explained with a smile: "Your Majesty, I'm here to send this to you." ”
Jin Yanhu looked at the candy lying in the palm of the young man's hand suspiciously, and his brows furrowed even tighter. Ji Ran smiled brightly and continued to explain: "Yesterday, I accompanied my mother to the street to buy flower cloth, and I happened to meet a family to marry. They beat gongs and drums while throwing happy money into the crowd, and my luck was so good, that after standing for a while, a happy money fell into my purse. ”
So, I bought two osmanthus candy, I want to give it to you to dip in joy, you taste it, is this sugar sweet?
Ji Ran reverently offered the candy in front of Jin Yan, his eyes were full of joy and expectation, and he couldn't help but feel a kind of trance, where was the candy offered, it was clearly a flawless heart.
So Jin Yan took the candy, opened the wrapped oil paper and put it in his mouth, and after tasting it a few times, a light smile hung on the corner of his mouth.
"Well, it's sweet."
"I'm guessing you'll like it!" Ji Ran couldn't wait to dance, "My father also said that I was a fool, you haven't seen anything, how can a small piece of candy be rare?" He also strictly forbade me to come to you again, or else break my legs, and I already have serious doubts that I may be a child picked up by the Squire's Mansion. ”
Ji Yuan, the household servant who was named and sued, couldn't pretend anymore, he stood up with a blue face, and pointed at Ji Ran is reprimand, "You, an unfilial son, dare to secretly take my waist card into the palace?!" Standing at the door of this Purple Pole Hall in a grand manner, is this also where you can come? You bastard! Don't hurry up, don't be embarrassed again!! ”
Then he turned around and knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, the minister has no way to discipline him, and the minister will definitely clean up this rebel, and he will not let him disturb His Majesty's purity!" ”
Another person in the crowd strolled over, laughed lightly a few times, and then pointed to Ji Yuan and said: "Ji Shilang, you are in charge of my money and food in Beiluo, and you are nicknamed the Abacus King, why can't you even manage a small waist card now?" ”
After the county lord of Anping finished speaking, after scanning the crowd, he handed his gaze to Jin Yan, and the meaning was also very obvious. Ji Shilang, who can't even manage a waist card, is either old and no longer suitable for this position, or the father and son are singing double reeds to bully the king!
Jin Yan's face really sank, and he asked Ji Ran: "Ji Ran, are you guilty?!" ”
Ji Ran immediately knelt down, "Your Majesty, I know it's wrong, I don't dare anymore." If you can save my leg today, next time, I will wait for you at the gate of the palace......"
As soon as these words came out, Ji Yuan's slap had already been raised on the top of his head, if it weren't for the empress who hadn't flattened him, he would have fallen heavily on the bold Ji Ran at this moment.
When Jin Yan saw it, he waved his hand to stop him, and took a piece of jade pendant from his waist and handed it to Ji Ran. fast
"This is for you, don't come here again next time, the weather is cold, go directly to the Jinnian Hall and wait for me......"
In the astonishment of everyone, Ji Ran happily accepted the jade pendant, and was about to open his mouth to thank him, Jin Yan waved his hand and continued: "The so-called courtesy exchange, you invite me to eat sugar, I will invite you to lunch, are you willing?"
A slender jade hand was handed in front of Ji Ran, and he hesitated and gently put his hand up, and then it was shaken. Obviously very weak and delicate, but it contains a magical power that lifts him up from the ground and takes him into the center of attention......
After seeing the empress gradually leave, the pot immediately exploded in the Purple Pole Palace. Some gathered around and whispered, some stood aside and watched coldly, and more gathered around the Tobe Shilang Era.
"Ji Shilang, congratulations, your son was born well!"
"Yes, yes, your Ji family is about to soar."
"Or do you have the foresight, you wanted your son to follow your surname at the beginning, and you are really the one who can glorify the lintel for your Ji family!"
Ji Yuan coped politely, and said with a smile, "Who would have thought that his courage would be so big, this is his luck, and it is also the mercy of the empress, otherwise he would have died a hundred and eight thousand times!" I just hope that he won't cause any more trouble, and save the lives of the family immediately, where do you dare to point to him for glory and wealth? ”
"Don't mention it again, don't mention it again......"
An Ping coldly looked at the various expressions of the people around him, listened to various voices coming from all directions, and finally fixed his gaze on Ji Yuan's body.
"Pretend, keep pretending, see how long you can pretend?!"

Jinnian Palace
————————————
These days, Ji Ran has become the most honored guest in this palace, although the empress has not given him any title, but there is a strong feeling in everyone's hearts, this is the empress is afraid of wronging the young man, just to pave the way for him to enter the palace, even this Jinnian Hall may have to change the day.
"Ji Ran, I heard that your hometown is in Pingcheng, and it was specially transported by horse from there, do you still like it?"
Jin Yan sandwiched a green and tender dish into the bowl opposite, Ji Ran was not polite, not only ate sweetly, but also praised it stingily: "When I used to eat it at home, I just thought it tasted good, but I never thought it would be so delicious." I don't know if the master in this palace has good craftsmanship, or His Majesty is too good at eating! ”
"Huh?" Jin Yan was puzzled, "Too much to eat?" What a strange way to say this. ”
Ji Ran smiled embarrassedly, "Actually, I want to say that Your Majesty is beautiful and delicious, but the crepe words seem too deliberate, hehe...... I'm not too embarrassed......"
"Hahaha......" Jin Yan smiled dumbly, and then nodded and said, "Well, I may really eat." ”
Ji Ran laughed when he heard this, his clear and pure eyes, white and neat teeth, and he was clearly very good at eating.
Avi, the small palace attendant who was waiting beside him, thought of the queen who left the palace angrily at this moment.
Since entering the palace three years ago, he has been serving in the Jinnian Palace, and at that time he felt that it was natural for the queen to be good to His Majesty, but now he feels that people are different after all.
His Majesty has never served dishes for the Queen, and His Majesty has never prepared anything for the Queen that he likes to eat, and His Majesty will not smile so brightly at the Queen.
It is said that His Majesty is infatuated, and he has only guarded the queen in the past three years, which can be called a model of Beiluo. But after all, time is fleeting, people's hearts are changeable, and three years is enough time to get tired of seeing a person.
Ay......
A few days later, after lunch, Jin Yan ordered someone to send Ji Ran home as usual, but Ji Ran was suddenly a little unhappy.
"Your Majesty, now everyone knows that you like me, but why haven't you married me? Is it because of the Queen? Are you afraid of him? ”
Jin Yan smiled lightly, "I'm the empress, how can I be afraid of him?" But you, if you enter the palace, aren't you afraid of being beaten to death by the queen? ”
When Ji Ran heard this, he began to feel melancholy, "This is also true, after all, the queen used to be a general who dominated the territory, where would I be his opponent?" At most, it will last seven or eight times, and the little life will be whimpering. ”
"But ......"
Ji Ran raised his head and looked firm, "I still want to enter the palace, I want to be with the person I like every day......"
Jin Yan was stunned for a moment, then gently stroked his serious face, sighed softly and said, "How could I have wronged you?" Don't worry, the queen won't do anything to you anymore, and I will always give you an explanation, go back with peace of mind......"
Ji Ran nodded very obediently, he had already walked far away and kept turning his head and waving his hand, and Jin Yan kept standing and watching, until the young man's figure disappeared into the corner of the palace wall, and then returned to the inner hall.
She commanded loudly to the palace attendants:
"Bathing, no guests in the afternoon, including the county lord of Anping."
