At the same time, Emperor Jinghong returned to the palace with his palace concubines and princes.

The sixth prince supported Concubine Shu's arm: "Mother, the retainer will send you back to the palace." ”

Concubine Shu smiled, and just as she was about to nod, she was called by Emperor Jinghong's deep voice.

"You all stand down, Concubine Shu comes with me."

Concubine Shugui's heart suddenly suddenly, but a shy and coquettish smile appeared on her face, and she said coquettishly under the suspicious or jealous gazes of the other concubines: "The concubine obeys the order." ”

Her performance in this way made many people who pointed their suspicions at Concubine Shu slightly dispelled their thoughts.

Although Concubine Shugui's face was calm and swaying, she followed Emperor Jinghong into the Heart Cultivation Palace, but in fact, the uneasiness in her heart had been magnified to the extreme.

Li Defang and Zhao Lu's two chamberlains followed behind the two, and when they saw the emperor waving his hand with his back to them, they immediately knew the opportunity to stop, and then ordered the palace maids and chamberlains who were waiting in the palace to retreat together, and closed the palace door after going out.

With a "squeak", the rhombic lattice fan in the hall was closed, and Emperor Jinghong turned back suddenly, and the "snap" slap knocked Shuguifei to the ground.

Even if the beaten flowers were discolored, Concubine Shu still maintained her demeanor perfectly, sitting sideways in a concave and convex posture, and her tearful appearance in her beautiful eyes was pitiful.

"Say, why did you do that?" Emperor Jinghong asked with a calm face.

Concubine Shu twisted her delicate body and knelt upright, lowered her eyes and sobbed: "Back to the emperor, the concubine is for Xu'er." Princess Zhang has always been unkind to Xu'er, and Xiao Yunpeng is eyeing the throne of the world, I almost made a big mistake back then, and learned that Xu'er was ink-dyed...... The concubine really didn't want to let him be hurt, so she came up with this method to protect him and try to make up for his mistakes back then. ”

Emperor Jinghong narrowed his eyes suspiciously, his lips hooked up a mocking arc, but his voice softened: "Concubine Ai's father and brother have spent a lot of money to build the palace in Huaijing, but Concubine Ai has done such a truthful thing, if it is known by the rest of the palace concubines, or by the courtiers, it will be necessary to attack the matter of moving the capital to Huaijing in the future." ”

Concubine Shugui's body relaxed a little, raised her head and looked at Emperor Jinghong pitifully, and said with tears in her eyes: "It's the concubine who doesn't think about it, and the concubine is really distressed that Xu'er will be like this, and it won't be in the future." The emperor also knew that the concubine's family was only loyal to the emperor, and in order to build the palace, no matter how much it spent, the concubine was brave, and this silver was not used by the subordinates, and if the people in the court wanted to oppose it, they could not stand their position. ”

Emperor Jinghong's eyes were slightly downcast, and he pulled up Concubine Shu with one hand with a smile, and Concubine Shu fell into the emperor's arms.

"The Emperor's ......"

The soft and delicate body was in his arms, thinking that Concubine Shu had always served well, Emperor Jinghong was also happy to push the boat along the water, and his voice was a little softer: "That Le Fuxiang is the recipe in "Qi's Secret Record", and it is not allowed to be used elsewhere in the future." ”

Concubine Shu smiled charmingly, and her hands were wide for the emperor, leading him to the dragon couch, and she was familiar with the way to light the Lefu incense on the corner table of the bed. The fragrance was pervasive, and both of them breathed heavily.

When Xiao Yunpeng was in a coma, Princess Zhang always held on to a glimmer of hope, expecting that her son would be cured when he woke up, and would not become paralyzed as Chu Junlan said.

But it was the opposite of what he wanted.

After Xiao Yunpeng woke up, he found that he couldn't even move a finger except for being able to turn his neck and eyes, and open his mouth to speak.

When Princess Zhang saw her son like this, she was as solid as a knife, and often sat on the edge of Xiao Yunpeng's bed and shed tears.

Xiao Yunpeng's mentality was unbalanced, and he even scolded his mother together, and the scolding was extremely ugly.

In just three days, whether it is Princess Zhang or Xiao Yunpeng, even the concubines and the women who serve around them, they are already physically and mentally exhausted.

Xiao Xu went home and washed up, and Jing Yu went back and forth: "The prince, the princess, I heard that the emperor named Princess Zhang's brother An Lebo, and gave the Zhang family and Princess Zhang a lot of gold and silver, and also arranged for the imperial doctor to be responsible for the daily care of the second son. ”

Chu Junlan cushioned it with two handkerchiefs, brought the casserole into the house, and sneered when he heard it: "This is about the explanation given by the emperor, but I don't know if Princess Zhang can be convinced." ”

Zi Yan pouted: "Where can she be convinced, at first you saved the second son, and she still wants to climb you." ”

Jingyu nodded: "It's true to be unconvinced, but since the emperor has already expressed his position and compensated the Zhang family, he has already made his meaning clear." Princess Zhang was no longer convinced, so she could only admit it. ”

"What can I do if I don't recognize it?" Chu Junlan said, "The emperor knows who it is, but he just doesn't open his mouth to deal with it, except for obeying the order, who dares to go to the emperor's house to get people?" ”

Chu Junlan said and served the black chicken soup to Xiao Xu, and then turned to discuss other matters.

"There's nothing going on in the capital, I'm going to go back to my hometown."

"Hometown?" Xiao Xu picked up the white porcelain bowl, tasted a bite of chicken soup, and ate two more bites with soft eyebrows and eyes.

Chu Junlan said with a smile: "I want to go back to the Chu family's mansion to have a look, and I want to ask Master Chu about one thing back then." ”

Seeing that Chu Junlan and Xiao Xu had something to say, Zi Yuan, Zi Yan and Jing Yu immediately retreated quietly.

Chu Junlan told Xiao Xu what Princess Zhang told her about the year.

"I don't know how true what Princess Zhang said, but if you ask Master Chu about this matter, you will definitely get a definite result."

Xiao Xu lowered his eyes and put down the bowl, but focused on another important point: "So back then, I almost couldn't be born, but your mother was kind-hearted, so she didn't feed my mother the fetal pills." ”

Chu Junlan thought about it, isn't that the case, and pinched Xiao Xu's face with a smile: "So we have a great life." Or did my mother know that the princess was her future mother-in-law? ”

Xiao Xu coughed, his face flushed.

Chu Junlan looked at it strangely, although they didn't have a round house, but the things that were close to each other between lovers were also done, so they wouldn't blush when they heard such a sentence, right?

Xiao Xu glanced at Chu Junlan and poured himself another bowl of chicken soup: "If you want to take leave and go with you, you should also go back and tell your uncle, and ask your uncle if you want to go back and see." ”

"That's what you're talking about. I'll go back and ask my eldest brother, but can you take any leave of absence now? ”

"After all, I am the son of Prince Gong, and if they want to embarrass me, they must also think carefully about whether my father is willing or not."

Chu Junlan nodded: "You don't have to be too embarrassed, I know, you want me to return to my hometown and want to support me, but I am really not afraid of that family." With the emperor's will, no one dares to say that I am not the young lady of the Maoguo Mansion, my maiden family is in the Maoguo Mansion, not the Chu family, if they are embarrassed for me, I can show my identity, and they dare not do anything to me. ”

Xiao Xu looked at Chu Junlan, going back to her parents' house, how could a woman not want her husband to be with her? Chu Junlan is so considerate, but he wants to accompany him even more.

Xiao Xu lowered his head to eat, and only said, "Don't be embarrassed." ”
