"I see." Shi Qingran responded lightly, and felt that the room was a little stuffy, and wanted to go out to breathe. So I took Lang'er and went to the promenade outside the courtyard again, looking at the cloudless sky in a daze.

She looked at the sky, looked at it, and tears fell unconsciously. Song Yuchen had said so many promises in the past, and before he said those promises and broke those promises, she always felt that Song Yuchen was a very reliable person.

Maybe it's not that Song Yuchen is unreliable, but that the situation is forcing it. As the saying goes, it is difficult to stand alone, and in the current situation, Song Yuchen still has to rely on these old ministers to support this crumbling country.

Thinking about it at the beginning, Shi Qingran regretted it. If he hadn't listened to Song Yuchen's nonsense, and stayed in Qishan after listening to Shi Xuan's words, it would only hurt for a while. Maybe she will be with Shi Wuyue, but she will never be in pain for the rest of her life.

Shi Qingran thought about it, and tears flowed down even more uncontrollably. Lang'er stood aside, dismissed the other maids, and only silently accompanied her.

In fact, there are also good ones. At least when she was sad, Lang'er was able to be by her side silently.

Unconsciously, Shi Qingran stood under the corridor for an afternoon. Seeing that it was getting dark and it was almost time for dinner, Song Yuchen came back from outside.

Seeing Shi Qingran like this, Song Yuchen stepped forward and coaxed softly: "Ranran, what's wrong?" ”

Shi Qingran turned her back, she had finished crying at this time, but she just didn't want Song Yuchen to see her weak tears.

"Is that palace maid messing with her? You just have to drop the golden beans, why do you need to drop the golden beans," Song Yuchen said, his warm fingertips lightly touched Shi Qingran's eyelids: "Tell me, if your husband can help you solve your doubts, your husband will help you." ”

"Cheng Jiaojiao, the girl from Master Cheng's family, is here today, does the emperor know?" Shi Qingran wiped the corners of his eyes, wiped away the remaining tears, and asked.

Song Yuchen was stunned, then nodded.

"I ...... I just see that you are bored in the palace alone, and I want her to accompany you, if she offends you, I just ask her not to enter the palace in the future. ”

"No, she's fine, she didn't offend me." Shi Qingran paused, and then said: "It's just that I want to know, what does it mean to be a Su Yunting before and a Cheng Jiaojiao now?" The emperor wants to ...... Is there a concubine? ”

Although Shi Qingran had fully done a good job of psychological construction, when she really said this, her heart still throbbed.

Song Yuchen sighed: "This is what those old horsemen meant, not what I meant." ”

Song Yuchen turned his back: "Su Yunting was allowed to enter the palace before, because her father was the lieutenant of the court, and she was under the banner of thanking you, so it was difficult for me to refuse." Cheng Jiaojiao entered the palace today, and I also saw that the daughter of the Cheng family was sensible, so I asked her to accompany you. ”

"Actually, there are two women who want to enter the palace today, but they are all rejected by me, and only the sensible one comes to see you. Save it like last time, and make you unhappy. ”

"If you don't like her, I won't let her come tomorrow."

"You let her come to see me, and let people not come, isn't it more burying people than not letting her come in the first place?" Shi Qingran listened to Song Yuchen's angry words, and was a little helpless for a while: "Actually, there's nothing wrong with her, but I think it's ...... I feel like I'm about to lose you. ”

Shi Qingran paused and continued: "In the past, I thought that being an emperor was a very beautiful and easy thing, but now, seeing that you are dealing with excerpts and government affairs every day in the study, I don't think so. ”

"Of course, it's just this time, the plan of the year lies in the spring, and when I finish this time, I will be idle. When the time comes, you want to ......" Song Yuchen wanted to say something, but for no reason, Shi Qingran put a finger on his mouth.

She didn't want to hear promises that couldn't be fulfilled.

"I think of what the first emperor said to us before he died. He said that the current internal and external troubles of the country are not very easy to manage. After he passed away, the reason why he married the daughters of these courtiers was not all because he liked them. Because their father holds the lifeblood and power of Tianqi, he has to please them and please them. ”

"I will take back these rights little by little, but now the foundation is not stable, and this plan will take some time." Song Yuchen sighed lightly, Shi Qingran couldn't remember how many times he sighed today: "I originally thought that I had fought in the south and the north, and I must be different from the imperial brother. I thought that I was decisive and could do better than the royal brother, but who knew that I would still be constrained by these old horsemen like the imperial brother. ”

"Yes, the foundation is not stable." Therefore, you should not offend those old ministers. Shi Qingran lowered his eyelids, not knowing what he was thinking. After a while, she raised her head again: "But speaking of which, I like Cheng Jiaojiao's girl very much, if she can often come to the palace to see me, I will also welcome her." ”

The whole world is embarrassing him and forcing him to make a decision, so she is unwilling to embarrass him, Shi Qingran would rather swallow the grievances in her stomach.

"Really?" A smile slowly rose on Song Yuchen's face, and then slowly faded again: "However, although she is simple, her father has such a mind, I am worried about ......"

"It's fine." Shi Qingran shook his head indifferently: "Actually, it would be good if there was someone who could accompany me often, it would be better than being alone in Kunning Palace looking at the sky outside the palace in a daze." ”

Song Yuchen pursed his lips slightly, and after a while, he asked again, "What about Su Yuting?" Do you like it? ”

"I mean, if you like them, you can often invite them into the palace to play, and when they are old enough to marry, then point them to a few families of ministers' sons, and in short, you won't treat them badly."

"Okay." Shi Qingran replied. After thinking about it, she said again: "Actually, a girl like Cheng Jiaojiao, I don't mind staying in the palace. It's just that I really don't like Su Yunting, if she wants to see me for some reason in the future, she will be gone. ”

"Good!"

Shi Qingran's mood became cheerful again, but there was a bit of satisfaction and boredom in this cheerfulness. Song Yuchen also knew that in front of Shi Qingran, he talked about the past from time to time to make her happy.

He knew that she was drinking rose tea to condition her body now, so he asked Xiaoshun to go down and plant all the royal gardens with roses.

After dinner, the two of them interlocked their fingers and went to the Imperial Garden for a walk, but saw a group of small chamberlains ramming the earth, they probably received Song Yuchen's order, and were busy renovating all this place and planting roses.
