"Yes."

"Have you found out?"

"According to the people who saw it, the queen took a golden hairpin to the Jade Pavilion, and when she came out, she was stunned and took the golden hairpin."

"And then?" Qi Yan asked.

"Then, the queen was saved by a man."

"Who?"

Yu Du paused and said, "The subordinates are incompetent. ”

Qi Yan didn't speak. In the darkness of the night, after walking for a long time, he continued: "Continue to investigate." ”

"Yes." Yu Du should be down.

Shen Qinghuan sat in the hall in a daze, holding her cheeks and looking at the moon outside the window, and Mo Xiang stood next to her, quietly accompanying her.

After a while, Shen Qinghuan said: "Mo Xiang, do you all think that this palace has fallen out of favor." ”

Mo Xiang knew that now everyone felt that the favored queen mother had fallen out of favor in just half a month, including her before. She always thought that Qi Yan was really fond of her, and she also felt that Qi Yan was really empathetic now. However, she now vaguely felt that maybe she was thinking the opposite. Maybe Qi Yan was just acting at the time, but now, he really likes it.

She wanted to tell Shen Qinghuan this, but when the words came to her mouth, she still swallowed it. After thinking for a while, he finally spoke:

"Niang Niang doesn't have to face those rumors unexpectedly. If the emperor is really such a kind person, it is better not to be involved. ”

This is reasonable, but when it came out of Mo Xiang's mouth, Shen Qinghuan was inevitably a little surprised. She had always thought that Mo Xiang wanted her master to be favored, so that she could also bring glory and wealth.

"Don't you think I'm too much? In this way, he will live in this world for a lifetime. ”

"The slave doesn't feel it. Niangniang gave up the opportunity to leave the palace for the sake of the family, and the slave maid can certainly understand it. Mo Xiang said, "Moreover, even if she doesn't get the emperor's favor, Niangniang is the only queen of Zhaoyue, and the slave maid follows the queen for a lifetime, of course, she is also at ease." ”

Shen Qinghuan was amused by her and smiled: "What if, what if, in the future, Concubine Rong becomes the queen?" ”

"That's too much to elevate Zhaoling, unlike what the emperor would do, the concubine is already the highest honor, don't worry about it. The slave will always be with you in the Chenghuan Palace. ”

"It's fine."

Shen Qinghuan thought. That's it, she doesn't seem to be able to ask for Qi Yan's love, the love of an emperor, she is delusional after all.

The days seem to be very dull for two months, and it is the Mid-Autumn Festival.

In the past two months, Qi Yan still came to Chenghuan Hall on time on the first and fifteenth days of the new year, but Shen Qinghuan consciously made a bed in the side hall. He never said anything superfluous to Qi Yan, but he slept silently in the side hall. Except for the first time, when Mo Xiang and Qi Yan said this, Qi Yan was a little angry, but later, he didn't feel anything anymore, and just lay in the Chenghuan Hall by himself.

Shen Qinghuan was depressed for many days, and during the Mid-Autumn Festival, he finally decided to make some mooncakes to be happy.

Today is a good day for reunion, Shen Qinghuan let the people in the hall go to do their own things early, leaving only Mo Xiang and Yun'er to make moon cakes together in the hall.

Yun'er, this girl, although she is not familiar with her, she always doesn't seem to talk much, and she usually doesn't play with other palace ladies in the palace, Mo Xiang deliberately takes care of her, and over time, Shen Qinghuan will also take care of her a little more.

Mo Xiang and Yun'er brought flour and water, and Shen Qinghuan taught them to make noodles with her, and she watched them carefully as much water and flour as they put in them.

The three of them were kneading the dough and kneading it vigorously, when suddenly Mo Xiang didn't stand firm, and with a wave of his hand, he swept down a plate of flour in front of him. swept straight onto Yun'er's clothes.

Yun'er exclaimed, unable to dodge, and Mo Xiang's face was also splashed with flour.

Shen Qinghuan was taken aback, but when he looked up and saw this scene, he was stunned for a moment and couldn't help laughing.

Yun'er and Mo Xiang looked at each other, and they both looked at each other and smiled, but they didn't dare to laugh too presumptuously.

Shen Qinghuan smiled and said: "Fortunately, there is still a lot of flour, otherwise, the moon cakes will not be eaten today." As he spoke, he sprinkled the flour in his hand on Yun'er's face.

Yun'er didn't dare to fight back, and just laughed stupidly.

"Lie to me too!" Shen Qinghuan said.

"Slaves don't dare." Yun'er and Mo Xiang said one after another.

"What don't you dare. Now it's just the three of us, and having fun is the most important thing. Quick, I haven't been so happy in a long time, don't spoil my fun. Shen Qinghuan said with a smile.

Yun'er and Mo Xiang glanced at each other again before they dared to slowly pick up the flour, but they didn't dare to throw it at Shen Qinghuan, they just hesitated to pick it up.

Shen Qinghuan pretended to order: "Hurry up." ”

Only then did the two of them close their eyes and threw the flour at Shen Qinghuan.

"Hahaha." Shen Qinghuan couldn't help laughing, "It seems to have gone back to when I was a child and played with my brothers and sisters." ”

Mo Xiang also "giggled", although Yun'er didn't laugh out loud, the corners of her mouth were curved.

After kneading the dough, Shen Qinghuan made four different fillings, namely bean paste, five kernels, pork, and egg yolk, all of which were put into a mold made of fine pear wood, and after being rolled into shape, Mo Xiang was asked to bake on the stove in the kitchen.

It was at this time that the door was opened.
