The emperor did not speak again.

Buwanwan also lay quietly, but she couldn't sleep, she wondered if she had said the wrong thing to upset the emperor.

Bu Wanwan couldn't think of anything she had done wrong after thinking about it all night, and she was still pretending to be asleep until the emperor left.

Qinghua came in to groom her up.

Buwanwan suddenly asked her, "The emperor just left?" ”

"Hmm." Qinghua nodded.

Buwanwan asked her again: "Did the emperor say anything when he left?" ”

Qinghua shook her head, but there was a shy smile on her cheeks, she thought that Buwanwan and the emperor were like glue, and she was reluctant to part for a moment.

Bu Wanwan continued to ask, "What is the look on the emperor's face?" ”

It wasn't until Bu Wanwan asked this sentence that Qinghua heard the abnormality, and with doubts, he said: "It's the same as peace." ”

Peacetime is the same?

Buwanwan smiled bitterly, how could it be the same?

Bu Wanwan and Lin Baolin are reconciled, and they often go to Zixiang Pavilion to visit, Liu Cairen rarely comes again, and occasionally comes to Zhaohua Hall to sit, Hu Meiren is coming day by day, and her temperament is still quiet, but Bu Wanwan is also quiet, and the two of them have something to say.

But the days went on like this.

Unconsciously, after the middle of winter and spring, the branches in the imperial garden have green, and now there are more buds, pink, very beautiful.

Buwanwan often goes to the Imperial Garden with Lin Baolin and Hu Meiren to take a walk to enjoy the flowers and scenery.

This time, Bu Wanwan and Lin Baolin came out for a walk again, and this time, it was inevitable that she would meet some people, just like Concubine Wu she had offended before.

Wu Concubine was wearing a dark green embroidered lotus skirt, her skin was fair, as white as snow, and her faint willow eyebrows were dyed like ink.

The reason why Concubine Wu is favored and can still gain power, in addition to the strength of her mother's family, is indispensable for her stunning appearance, like a bewitching peach blossom in the spring moon.

Bu Wanwan thought that if she was the emperor, she would also be blessed with such a stunning and lovely person.

However, she is not the emperor, and she is also the queen of Wu Concubine's opponent.

When the two sides meet, it is inevitable that the atmosphere will be a little awkward.

However, Wu Concubine raised her arrogant cheeks, more confident than Bu Wanwan's timidity, she walked straight towards Bu Wanwan, still with that look of neither humility nor arrogance, and saluted: "What a coincidence, the queen also came to the imperial garden for a walk." ”

Bu Wanwan said lightly: "The spring color of the imperial garden is just right, and Concubine Wu is also here to enjoy the flowers?" ”

"Cherry blossoms? The flowers in the Imperial Garden are not yet fully blooming, so what flowers can you enjoy? Concubine Wu sneered, walked to the branch, hooked the buds on the branch with her delicate hand, and said: "The winter has passed, but the real spring has not yet come, what is there to appreciate?" Just like the buds on this tree, it seems that they have survived the cold winter and are about to bud to be released, but before the flowers bloom, who knows what will happen? ”

Concubine Wu's words were yin and yang, alluding to her.

Bu Wanwan secretly forbears.

In fact, Concubine Wu is not wrong, she is indeed like this bud, it seems that she has been favored by the emperor for a few days, but her father has committed an unforgivable sin, and now she is still fighting with the emperor, how long can she be gorgeous in spring?

All she can do now is one word - forbearance.

But Lin Baolin couldn't bear it, Lin Baolin said coldly: "Wu Concubine Niangniang said very much, flowers can only bloom for a while, but they can't bloom for a lifetime, the seasons change, there is always a new spring color in the palace, and the old flower branch will always wither and turn into the mud." ”

Lin Baolin's flowers inevitably got a cold eye from Concubine Wu.

Concubine Wu stared at Lin Baolin and looked at her with a sneer: "Lin Baolin is so sharp-toothed, it seems that the punishment he received last time is exhausted, and the queen takes care of you very well, but as a harem concubine, if you can't be favored by the emperor, what's the use of having a powerful mouth?" ”

Lin Baolin said: "Xie Wu Concubine Niangniang reminded that the concubines should be diligent, and hope that they can become the spring that the emperor appreciates in the future, and the concubines will also pray day and night, hoping that Wu Concubine Niangniang will not become the flower branch that withers into the mud." ”

Concubine Wu snorted coldly, and said: "Why did I suddenly lose interest today, the queen mother and concubines went back first." ”

Concubine Wu saluted casually, and then passed by Lin Baolin.

Buwanwan looked at Lin Baolin a little helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "You obviously know that she has this temperament, you and I can't afford to provoke her, why bother to provoke her again?" ”

Lin Baolin said: "Does the queen think that if we don't provoke her, she will let us go?" The concubine figured it out this time, if she didn't get the emperor's favor, sooner or later she would be eliminated by countless concubines, the queen's mother, the concubines knew that they didn't have that blessing, but the concubines begged the queen to fight, the right should be for the queen herself, as well as the mother's mother. ”

Lin Baolin's words do make sense.

But Bu Wanwan has no chance.

Her father rebelled and had cut off all her back roads.

Because of this, her daughter, who was not favored by her father, was allowed to the crown prince, because her father was bound to fight with the emperor for life and death, and she was caught in the middle, both horizontally and vertically.

But even so, she has to live desperately, even if there are not many days left, she has to live happily.

"You have a point, but you also know about my family's affairs, and this palace has not had the power to fight from the beginning, but you can." Buwanwan said, suddenly held Lin Baolin's hand, and said: "Next time the emperor comes to Zhaohua Palace, the palace will introduce you and let the emperor favor you." ”

Lin Baolin was stunned, his eyes were full of surprise, "Queen, do you know which woman in the harem doesn't want to be favored by the emperor, but you want to give up the opportunity to the concubine in vain?" ”

Bu Wanwan asked: "This palace and ask you, if you are favored one day, will you treat this palace well?" ”

Lin Baolin lowered his eyes slightly, but said firmly: "If it weren't for the queen's mother to save her several times, the concubine's little life would have been gone a long time ago, Niangniang, you have a great kindness to the concubine, and the concubine is looking forward to repaying the queen in this life, and there is no need to say too much between the concubine and the queen's sisters." ”

The two of them are different, they have been together from the East Palace to this day, Lin Baolin is really grateful in his heart.

Buwanwan said again: "Okay, sister, you just listen to me and go and compete for favor!" ”

This time, Buwanwan did not call herself the palace, and called her sister.

Lin Baolin was stunned, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes.

This moment is like going back to the time when they first met, when they didn't know anything and didn't be cautious everywhere.

"Sister, my name is Bu Wanwan." Buwanwan's smile was very bright.

Lin Baolin smiled and whispered, "Sister, my name is Lin Qingning." ”

Memories kept coming, Lin Baolin came back to his senses in a daze, and said: "Queen Mother, why don't you compete for favor yourself?" In fact, the concubines could see that the emperor did not take the matter of the Bu family to Niangniang. ”

Buwanwan smiled bitterly, but did not answer.

On the way back, Qinghua looked like she wanted to say something, especially when she heard Bu Wanwan asking Lin Baolin to compete for favor, her face was displeased.
