Shen Qinghuan asked tentatively: "Didn't you say, I will stay here for a few more days and then go back, what?" ”

"I don't know. The emperor ordered this, and the ministers could only do it. ”

Shen Qinghuan was a little unhappy, she felt that Qi Yan seemed to be a little too unkind, and she didn't pay attention to her feelings and opinions. But she was a little happy in her heart, because Qi Yan didn't care about her at all, although Yu Du didn't tell her this meaning.

"But... Alright then, I'll go back with you. You wait. ”

"Okay." Yu Du responded.

On the way back to the palace, Yu Du rode a horse next to the carriage. Shen Qinghuan lifted the curtain and asked, "Guard Yu, why did the emperor take me back to the palace." ”

Yu Du didn't turn his head, looked straight ahead, and said: "The emperor learned about Niangniang's disappearance for one night, so he ordered his ministers to take Niangniang back to the palace to ensure Niangniang's personal safety. ”

Shen Qinghuan lowered his head and asked again, "Then what has the emperor been doing these days?" ”

Yu Du was silent.

Shen Qinghuan then remembered that before Yu Du left, he said that the emperor held a banquet to entertain everyone.

Shen Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, and then he realized in his heart, and said slowly: "That... Did something happen? ”

"The emperor gave Concubine Rong a name."

"What?"

"Green Ridge."

Shen Qinghuan did not speak.

Yu Du said: "The queen doesn't have to think so much, this is a necessary etiquette, and it's not entirely for Concubine Rong." ”

Shen Qinghuan hooked the corners of his mouth: "It's okay, you don't have to comfort me." With that, he lowered the curtain and no longer gave Yu Du a chance to speak. Yu Du sighed, and finally swallowed back the words in his mouth.

He knew that there were some things that he couldn't say.

So no matter how worried the emperor is, he can't tell her.

Shen Qinghuan's heart gradually sank, and he seemed to feel that there would never be any more waves.

That night, Qi Yan came to Chaoyun Hall as usual.

Lu Yang had already faded off the hairpin, his long soft hair was draped over his shoulders, and when he saw Qi Yan coming in, he didn't look surprised, but said gently: "Your Majesty, you are here." ”

Qi Yan nodded, his face was not as soft as usual, and there seemed to be some sadness between his eyebrows.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong? Today, you seem to be a little absent-minded, did something happen at the banquet? Lu Yang said tentatively.

"It's fine." Qi Yan sat on the chair, and Lu Yang poured a cup of tea and handed it to him.

"The emperor said, how could the concubines not see the emperor's thoughts?"

Qi Yan glanced at her deeply, but that look made Lu Yang feel a little stunned in his heart.

Qi Yan said slowly: "I'm thinking, Lu Yang left his hometown and came to another country, don't you miss your hometown in your heart?" ”

Lu Yang was stunned for a moment, then showed a smile and said, "Lu Yang was reluctant at first. The concubines were born in Zhaoling since they were children, and they have long been accustomed to the feng shui people there, so when they said that they wanted the concubines to come to recruit the moon, the concubines refused by tens of thousands. However, I was forced to leave my homeland. However, when I saw the emperor for the first time, I felt that I was worth it. What's more, the emperor is so good to his concubines, how dare the concubines complain? ”

Qi Yan listened to her string of words, still with a smile on his face, but he didn't say anything more.

Seeing the smile on his face, Lu Yang suddenly stepped forward and wrapped his hand around his neck, and the gentle Zelan breath sprayed in his ear: "Your Majesty, it's not early, let's rest." ”

Qi Yan took her hand off her body with a smile and said, "Today's banquet is held, and I haven't taken care of national affairs well. I just came to see you, and then I went back to the Golden Cloud Palace to deal with political affairs. ”

Lu Yang's smile froze on his face, these days, Qi Yan is like a heartless person, no matter how gentle he is to her, he has never touched her.

Her tears came as soon as she said it, and she choked up and said, "Does the emperor not love his concubines?" ”

At that moment, what Qi Yan thought in her heart was that Shen Qinghuan also loved to cry, but she always endured it and didn't let the tears flow. That kind of stubborn look, he felt a little distressed when he thought about it.

"How so? Don't overthink it. Qi Yan bent her sideburns behind her ears and said, "I'm gone, you rest early." ”

After that, he didn't give her a chance anymore and turned away.

Out of the Chaoyun Palace, Yu Du was waiting there.

He asked, "Got it back?" ”
