Xiyan saw the displeasure in Lu Yuening's expression, her heart sank, she quickly knelt down, and said carefully: "The slave will never dare to make decisions without authorization in the future, and ask the mother to punish him." ”

Lu Yuening swept away her previous unhappy expression, personally leaned over to help Xiyan, and said kindly: "I don't blame you, since Hancui left, Fuxiang Hall has always been taken care of by you, I am very satisfied, I will let the emperor reward you." ”

Xiyan was even more frightened, and said tremblingly: "Slaves don't dare, these are what slaves should do, and they are the duty of slaves." ”

Lu Yuening smiled and said, "That's good! This ...... Hahahahaha...... The ...... of the job" smiled and walked towards the upper study, leaving only Xiyan, who had been kneeling on the ground, trembling with fright.

Upper study.

When Lu Yuening entered the door, he found that the room was empty, and even the eunuchs and palace maids who were waiting on the side didn't know where they went, Lu Yuening walked to the bookcase, and saw some of the folds that had been approved and not yet approved, scattered on the bookcase, and the harem was not allowed to be regent, these Lu Yuening all knew, and he didn't dare to be interested in these things, plus it was only the matter of Hancui and Imperial Doctor Liu, if it weren't for the Empress Dowager, probably not to mention himself at this time, the Lu family was ruined because of their stubbornness and indulgence.

Lu Yuening was about to leave, when she suddenly saw a few words under a pair of folds, she curiously and carefully pushed the folds aside, only to see that below the folds was a painting, with mountains, rivers and bridges on it, as if it was Jiangnan in March, and there was water under the bridge. There are lotus flowers in the water, and among the many green leaves, the only lotus in full bloom is a faint pink. It looks very delicate and fresh.

On the left side of the painting is a good-looking calligraphy, Lu Yuening grew up in a scholarly family, and the study and study of calligraphy began since childhood, but she herself has always liked Xiao Seal very much, probably because Xiao Seal pays attention to dignified and neat, similar to her own personality, and Xingshu is more indulgent than regular script. It is more astringent than cursive, static and moving, complex and simple. The interest is endless, if you want to practice well, it is not an overnight thing, but look at these words written by the emperor. knew that the emperor had spent a lot of time and energy. It is very Wang Xizhi's style.

She took a good look at the words written on it, and found that there was some meaning, so she simply sat down and recited: "On the red dust, the smoke and water, a woman, such as a lotus, is quiet and elegant." The heart of the water is soft and boneless, and it is not stained with fine dust. Bright and safe. Time is silent, alone and happy, the years are quiet, chanting and singing, low eyebrows and shallow smiles, and the breeze comes naturally. ”

"What does Yue Ning think?"

Lu Yuening was looking like a god, and suddenly heard someone talking next to him, so frightened that he quickly raised his head, only to see that the emperor had already walked to his side, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he quickly put the poems and paintings in his hand on the bookcase, stood up, and looked at the emperor with a smile on his face.

"The concubine came over to send some snacks to the emperor, the concubine ......is really unintentional," Lu Yuening said, getting up and giving a salute.

The emperor stepped forward, ignored Lu Yuening, but looked at the things on the table, and said, "You haven't answered me yet?" ”

Lu Yuening thought for a while and said softly: "It's the first time the concubine has seen the emperor's calligraphy and paintings, which really opened the eyes of the concubine. ”

The emperor was happy and said, "Do you think this calligraphy and painting is good?" ”

Lu Yuening saw that the emperor was happy, and her heart was also put down, no longer as nervous as before, and said with a smile: "Very good, especially this poem with this painting, it complements each other and is very appropriate." ”

The emperor took Lu Yuening's hand and walked to the bookcase, which made Lu Yuening happy, and a sweet smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The emperor pointed to the calligraphy and painting, and said: "I have always felt that I am not very satisfied, but as soon as I heard you, I also believed it, after all, you are from a scholarly family, so you naturally have your vision and appreciation, since you said it is good, then I also feel good." ”

Lu Yuening heard the emperor say this, and said happily: "I don't know who the emperor is talking about in this calligraphy and painting?" ”

The emperor looked at Lu Yuening, and Lu Yuening couldn't help but sink in his heart from the emperor's eyes, and quickly lowered his head.

The emperor said after a while: "If I say that it is you who writes, what do you think?" ”

Lu Yuening didn't dare to speak, the emperor snorted and put down Lu Yuening's hand, sat down alone, lifted the red pen, took a fold, and said coldly: "The queen go back, I still have a lot of twists and turns to see at night, you don't have to wait for me." ”

Lu Yuening couldn't figure out the emperor's mood, he was very happy just now, how could he say that he turned his face.

"The concubine retired." Lu Yuening had no choice but to bow and salute, ready to leave.

"Slow ......"

When Lu Yuening heard this, he seemed to see a glimmer of hope, and quickly turned around, only to see that the emperor was still looking down at the song, and said in his mouth: "I hope you will do what you say, be cautious in your words and deeds, but not just say it casually." ”

Lu Yuening was stunned in his heart, this is what he assured the emperor after talking to the empress dowager, in addition to respecting the emperor, there is also a layer of meaning in these four words, that is, guard your mouth and don't go to the empress dowager to make a small report to the emperor at every turn.

"The concubine understands, and the concubine retires." Lu Yuening bit her lip, looked at the emperor who was looking at the folding, and walked out with a very complicated expression as if she had knocked over the five-flavor bottle.

Out of the Funing Palace, Lu Yuening did not sit in a sedan chair, but walked slowly towards his bedroom.

"Niangniang, it is more exposed, be careful of catching a cold, or let the slave tell the sedan chair to carry Niangniang back." Xiyan whispered behind her.

Lu Yuening shook her head and said, "Xiyan, what flowers do you like?" ”

Xiyan was puzzled, but still replied to Lu Yuening's words: "Back to Niangniang's words, there is a flower in the slave's hometown, and it is as cheap and easy to live as the slave, so there is such a flower blooming everywhere in our hometown, and there are all kinds of colors, except for winter, which is to be open all year round, but the name is not very good, it is called the Golden Bell." ”

Lu Yuening smiled and motioned for Xiyan to come forward to help her, and then the two of them separated themselves from the palace maid behind them.

"Do you know what I like?" Lu Yuening said.

Xiyan smiled and said, "Niangniang likes lotus flowers, even the emperor knows it." After speaking, Xiyan suddenly felt that what she said was a bit reckless, and quickly stopped and knelt down to make amends.

Lu Yuening gave a hand and said, "You are not wrong, it's just that I just saw the calligraphy and painting of clothes on the emperor's bookcase, which is a lotus flower, and a woman like a lotus is written." ”

After hearing this, Xiyan said happily: "Then the emperor must be talking about you." ”

Lu Yuening smiled lightly: "Without the nobility of peonies, without the delicacy of roses, that woman is only willing to be a lotus, a quiet and elegant, a light smile and a quiet time, and spend a pure sky, like a lotus's heart, precipitating incense." ”

Xiyan couldn't understand what Lu Yuening was saying, so she had to silently accompany Lu Yuening to walk slowly.

"How can such a woman be me in the emperor's heart?" Lu Yuening finally said this, after saying it, a cool tear fell on the back of Xiyan's hand in the night, Xiyan's hand trembled slightly, and she couldn't help but secretly glance at the emperor who was only eighteen years old next to her by the moonlight, such a time should be the best, but why has he never seen any queen happy in the palace for twenty years?

————————

Another month has passed, on the first day of the fourth month, a good day for the draft in the palace, this day also happens to be the day when Qiao Cheng gave birth.

The Fang family sent someone over early in the morning to invite Fang Jinyan over, and when Fang Jinyan arrived at the Fang family with clouds, raindrops, asters and jade bamboos, Qiao Ji had not yet given birth because of difficult childbirth.

Fang Jinyan came directly to the Frost Moon Residence under the leadership of Qing'er, Fang Bingde and several ladies sat in the main room, the old lady did not come because she was unwell, Dong Yuexi was delegated and grounded again because of Qing'er's affairs, and there was no chance to come out again, and the rest of the people arrived.

I haven't been back to Fang's house for a long time, Fang Jinyan feels that everything is still like that, I didn't see Fang Ziqing, probably deliberately avoiding it, at this time, Shen Mingyu is also not suitable to be present, so there is only Fang Bingde alone.

From time to time, there were terrible screams in the inner room, and sometimes slaves and maids and stable women came out with basins of blood and water.

After everyone knelt down and saluted Fang Jinyan, they gave up their seats to Fang Jinyan. Fang Jinyan motioned for the clouds to go in and take a look, and when the clouds went in, he saw the clouds coming out in a hurry.

"Jinyan, the fetal position is not correct, you have to find a doctor to come over and take a look." Yun Duo said anxiously.

Fang Jinyan looked at Qing'er, and Qing'er hurriedly said: "Dr. Zhang, who has been seeing a doctor in our Fang family before, moved his family to the south some time ago, and then there has been no fixed doctor to see a doctor. ”

Fang Jinyan didn't expect that the Fang family was so depressed that they couldn't even invite a doctor, thought about it, took out his own brand from his sleeve and handed it to Ziyuan, and said, "Let's go to the palace, just say it's what I mean, let the palace find a better doctor, hurry up." ”

Ziyuan took the sign and hurriedly went out in her arms, and the second lady on the side saw this, so she had a flattering face, and said with a smile: "Now Jinyan is a big celebrity in front of the emperor, I heard that now the queen mother wants to give you a few thin noodles." ”

Fang Shuhe, that is, the daughter of the second lady, is now at the age of getting married, but because the Fang family is not as good as a year now, the second lady has never been able to find a suitable family, so they are all seventeen years old, and the marriage has not yet been settled.

Fang Shuhe snorted disdainfully when she heard her mother say this, and said: "Not everyone has such a good blessing as the fourth sister, not only is there a princess's sister, there is a prime minister's eldest brother, and now she is still the emperor's aunt, hum...... It's a pity that no matter how much you can't change the Fang family's surname, it's still called Fang Jinyan in the end. (To be continued......)
