Yin Chen had to admit that the moment Li Shenlan's soft lips touched him, his heartbeat seemed to have missed a beat.

Time was still there, and everything around me was motionless, except for the oil on the fire that was still crackling.

Li Shenlan finally realized what she had done, and turned back to her body in a panic and quickly, her eyes were blank, but she didn't dare to meet Yin Chen's eyes.

"I ...... You...... I didn't mean to. ”

"I know." Yin Chen's voice was so deep for some reason, but it was a different kind of magnetism when it fell into Li Shenlan's ears. "You didn't mean it, you did...... Intentionally. ”

Hearing this, Li Shenlan's already blushing face turned even redder now, as if she was about to drip blood.

Yin Chen looked at her appearance and was heartbroken, and the hearty but clear laughter echoed in the mountains and forests.

Li Shenlan forgot how the two of them used their dinner, only knowing that she couldn't hold anything behind her, and Yin Chen fed herself one bite at a time.

The temperature of this dinner was a bit high.

After dinner, the palace people waited for the two of them to go to the hot spring in the forest to bathe.

There are three pools in the hot springs, Yin Chen's royal pool is on the left, and Li Shenlan was already shy and pulled Bang Chun to the pool on the far right. Because of the four strokes, Bang Chun was alone, and the two simply went down to the pool to bathe together.

Warm water wrapped Li Shenlan's whole body, and the tiredness accumulated throughout the day and even for a long time was dissipated in this way. The green trees and stones around the pool reflect each other, and the water vapor forms a smoky fairyland.

Li Shenlan was half-leaning inside, her eyes closed, as if she was going to fall asleep in the next second.

"Little master, the slave can just see it." Bang Chun deliberately laughed playfully.

What you see, it is natural to speak.

Li Shenlan's mind instantly reproduced the scene where she gave her own kiss, and with the hot water wrapping, her face was very hot.

"Say it again!" Li Shenlan pretended to be angry and looked at Bang Chun, but she let out a burst of laughter like silver bells.

"The little lord is shy!"

"Bang Chun! It's just that it's too good for you on weekdays, and it's getting more and more unruly! ”

Li Shenlan was ashamed and angry, reached out and took a handful of water and splashed it on Bang Chun's face. Bang Chun was not idle, Li Shenlan, who kept slapping the water with both hands, couldn't open her eyes.

Yin Chen soaked in the pool alone and listened to the laughter of his daughter's house behind the rocks, and his face unconsciously relaxed a lot.

Thinking about Ah Ming back then, she was heartless, unrestrained, like a naughty child, and she was far less distant from herself than she is now.

"Your Majesty, ...... about sleeping tonight?"

Father-in-law Hou raised his mouth out of discord, and sure enough, Yin Chen's eyes were sharper than knives.

"Minions are talkative, minions are talkative......"

That night, Li Shenlan sat on Yin Chen's bed nervously clasping her fingers. Hearing that there was news from the front line in the palace, Yin Chen had to go to the library to discuss military politics.

I can't fall asleep anymore this time, Li Shenlan muttered to herself in her heart.

Yin Chen said that he would not force himself, but Li Shenlan was willing this time. Yin Chen is the king and he is a concubine, and it is a matter of course to serve his husband.

In the past, I was afraid, because I didn't know what kind of person Yin Chen was, and I was afraid that I was different from those concubines, and they were all women who would be forgotten at any time. I am afraid that I will fall in love with Yin Chen, and in the end I will be unknown in the palace and lonely for the rest of my life.

But these days, Yin Chen's kindness to himself and his own uniqueness Li Shenlan have all seen it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart.

She believed that Yin Chen was the person who was worthy of entrustment and dedication in her life, so even though she was nervous in her heart, it was more sweet.

Just as he was thinking, the door to the outer room was pushed open from the outside.

As soon as Yin Chen came in, he saw Li Shenlan sitting on the edge of the bed with her head down, and the small movements in her hands couldn't hide it, this girl was still scared.

"If you're scared, go to sleep, I said you don't have to force yourself."

Yin Chen took off his coat as he spoke, sat on the edge of the bed and took Li Shenlan's hand to comfort him.

Li Shenlan plucked up the courage to meet Yin Chen's eyes, but there was a fine sweat in the palms of her hands.

"I ...... Ah Ci, I like you, I have you in my heart, I ......"

Li Shenlan could feel that her face was heating up rapidly, and she obviously began to prepare a lot of words, but when it came to the knees, she couldn't say anything, and almost flashed her tongue.

Looking at Li Shenlan's appearance, Yin Chen chuckled in his heart, but he didn't embarrass her anymore.

Leaning forward, he reached out and lifted her little red face, lips on her forehead, eyes, the tip of her nose, and finally, on the softness that she had been waiting for.

Suddenly, she was caught off guard, Li Shenlan's shocked eyes were fixed there, looking at the enlarged face in front of her, those eyes were closed so softly, and the red lips were so tender.

At the end, Yin Chen stretched out his hand to encircle Li Shenlan in his arms, looked down at her tenderly, those eyes were like a frightened rabbit, wing-like eyelashes trembled and trembled, and Yin Chen's heart turned into a pool of spring water.

"Really ready to ......"

Li Shenlan buried her face in Yin Chen's arms, and although she didn't dare to speak, she nodded seriously.

So, Yin Chen held a ball of soft beauty, as if holding the fragile treasures of the world, and gently put it on the soft bed.

The bed curtain is scattered, covering a piece of spring flowers. In the quiet night, the unique delicate voice sounded from time to time, as if telling the beautiful scenery of flowers and butterflies......

In the early morning in the mountains and forests, some faint mist has not yet dissipated, and it looks like nothing from a distance.

Li Shenlan was awakened by the sound of birds crying in the forest outside, and subconsciously touched her side, it was already empty, only the plum blossoms on her body still proved that everything that happened yesterday was indeed there.

"Shame on you!" Li Shenlan covered her face and muttered to herself, everything that happened last night was covered up in her mind like a marquee.

Obviously, neither of them drank alcohol, but in the depths of their love, both of them unconsciously released the most primitive purity.

Bang Chun, who was guarding the outer room, listened to the movement and asked in a loud voice, "Is the little master awake?" ”

"Why didn't you wake me up sooner."

According to the rules, the concubines and concubines had to serve the emperor and dress in the morning, which made Li Shenlan not know how long she slept.

"It's the emperor who doesn't ask the slave to wake you up, the emperor said that the little master was tired last night...... Let me rest a little longer......"

"Alright, alright, bring in hot water!"

Li Shenlan was ashamed and ashamed to stop Bang Chun, got up and sat down, and let the accompanying palace people dress up and dress herself.

"What about the emperor?" You don't have to go to court here, why did you go out so early.

"News came from the front line early in the morning, and a few important folds were handed over in the palace, and the emperor went to the study when he was young."

Li Shenlan nodded and looked at Yin Chen, who had just passed the morning, and thought that Yin Chen hadn't eaten yet, so she urged the palace people to hurry up, and when they were busy, they hurriedly went to the kitchen, thinking about making breakfast for Yin Chen.

"Yo, why did Concubine Lan come to the kitchen, this place is full of fumes, and her little heart has sleeves."

In the kitchen, Hou Gongcheng supervised the palace people to prepare meals, and watched Li Shenlan come in and hurriedly salute.

"I want to make some breakfast for the emperor, the pheasant I caught yesterday can be stewed?"

"I asked someone to wash it in the morning, but I didn't bother to stew it."

Li Shenlan nodded, and asked the palace people to make pastries first, and she cleaned her hands and found lotus leaves to wrap the chicken.

When Yin Chen came out of the study to look for Li Shenlan, he saw a woman with mud handprints on her face, squatting there with a fan and fanning the fire without any image.

"What is this doing?"

Seeing Yin Chen coming, Li Shenlan got up with a smile and wiped the fine sweat on her face casually with the back of her hand, never thinking that the mud on her face was rubbing more and more.

"Ah Ci! I'll make you something you've never tasted before! ”

Li Shenlan was excited, and her dark face looked extremely funny with her snow-white teeth exposed, not to mention Hou Zhong who was following behind, even Yin Chen was amused.

"Like a child, what is it that makes Lan Lan bothered so much?"

In private, Yin Chen called Li Shenlan like this, took the wet cloth handed over by Bang Chun, Yin Chen gently wiped Li Shenlan's face, and it took a while to turn her back into a snow-white beauty.

"It's called a flower chicken! You've certainly never eaten it, but it's really delicious! ”

Li Shenlan was very excited, she still learned it from Mother Song in the past, and every time Mother Song made this dish, Uncle Song liked it very much.

"Okay, no matter what kind of food is made by Lan Lan, you can eat it all for your husband."

On the dining table, in addition to noodles and snacks and called flower chicken, Li Shenlan also specially dismantled some chicken to make shredded chicken porridge, which has a stronger taste.

"Is it delicious?"

Looking at Li Shenlan's expectant look, Yin Chen couldn't help but reach out and rub her head.

"It's delicious, ten times better than the chef in the imperial dining room!"

Yin Chen's doting words were exchanged for bursts of silver bell-like laughter from Li Shenlan.

"Try this steamed cheese with sugar, steamed with bamboo leaf dew, and see if it tastes better?"

Li Shenlan picked up a pair of chopsticks in response, and said that she didn't like this snack too much. But after Yin Chen rescued himself on East Street, he recommended this dish to himself, and Li Shenlan was relatively preferred.

"The father and son of the Zhao family killed Nanban as soon as they arrived in the Dongsha war, and now they have defeated Nanban three times, and I am afraid that it will not be long before the class will be able to return to the dynasty."

For some reason, Yin Chen suddenly mentioned the important military and political affairs of the previous dynasty with Li Shenlan.

"Your Majesty, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics." Li Shenlan was a little scared, she told herself about such an important matter, and it was a little difficult to change anyone.

"Yes to everyone else, but not to you."

These words are like reassurances and more like a declaration, telling Li Shenlan that he is different from him.

"I wanted to be at ease with you here for half a month, but the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Households wrote that the silver of the imperial court was afraid that it would not be able to support the front line and fight like this, so I would always have to go back to the palace to take care of it."

I don't know if it's out of guilt, Yin Chen reached out and grabbed Li Shenlan, and there was regret in his eyes.

"It's okay, as long as Ah Ci has me in his heart, it's all the same there." Li Shenlan covered Yin Chen's hand and said softly, "Speaking of the military silver taels, I have an idea." ”

"Tell me about it."

"The imperial court is not in place, and the front line is only afraid that the war will be tight, not to mention the military rations. If the Southern Barbarian Army knows, it will be even more detrimental to our army. If taxes are levied, the people will complain.

It is better to publicize and raise donations, and the people will donate more or less, and the most important thing is to let local officials donate. Officials in all provinces and counties will always have corrupt officials, big and small. The emperor could first ask the officials of the court to donate money, and then symbolically reward something, and those local officials would naturally follow suit and ask for the emperor's reward. ”

Yin Chen saw Li Shenlan talking with a straight head, and he couldn't hide the appreciation in his eyes. He didn't expect a country girl to have such insight.

"As for the harem, the concubines feel that they should start from themselves, and no matter how little money they save by advocating thrift, it can be regarded as a heart."

"I didn't expect my Lan Lan to have such a ......"

In the palace, it has been four or five days since Li Shenlan went out. Because of the absence of Yin Chen's existence, all palaces are quiet, and even the province has become a lot more harmonious every morning and dusk.

"I heard that this time to save expenses was suggested by Shen Lan to the emperor."

In Changle Palace, the queen was playing chess with Concubine Xiang, and seeing that she was about to lose, the queen was busy chatting and wanted to disturb Concubine Xiang's train of thought.

"Well, compared to what Shen Lan proposed, I care more about what the emperor means. These can be regarded as political affairs, the emperor has never allowed the harem to interfere in politics, so why did he discuss it with Shen Lan. ”

Concubine Xiang always felt that something was wrong, and in her opinion, Yin Chen's approach was like a ...... Test?

The queen thought that Concubine Xiang was worried about Li Shenlan, and comforted with a smile:

"It's okay, Gonggong Hou's people passed the word to me, and I suppressed this matter, and the Queen Mother didn't know. only said that the emperor asked me to deal with this matter. ”

Concubine Xiang was thinking about things, and she didn't care much about the queen's words, just nodded casually.

After returning to Jinghe Palace, Concubine Xiang sat there alone and pondered for a long time, and she didn't even notice when Qin Yin came in.

"Mother, mother!"

Concubine Xiang was aroused, and the tea cup in her hand was touched and almost fell to the ground.

"What?"

"Our people found ......"

Because Yin Chen is not in the palace, many people and things in the palace have become a lot more relaxed. Concubine Xiang sent to investigate the cause of Li Mingjin's death also had a hint of eyebrows.

"There is an old lady who has been cooking in Li Mingjin's palace, and after Li Mingjin's death, she was kicked out of the palace with a dumb voice. Our people threatened her grandson and spread the news ......"

Li Mingjin's food has always been mixed with drugs that can make women infertile!

"Heh......" Concubine Xiang fiddled with the lid of the tea, and the sound of collision was uncomfortable. He's really a trick, and he never gets tired of using it. ”

"If Niangniang said so, wouldn't it be ...... Li Mingjin's pregnancy in the first place?"

Yes, Li Mingjin's incident was claimed to be that his feet slipped and accidentally fell into the water and drowned, but Li Mingjin announced to everyone that he was pregnant a month before his death, and the imperial doctor also insisted that it had been more than a month.

But since she has been taking contraceptive medicine all year round, what is the matter with the child in her belly?

"Check it again, especially the subordinates who served Li Mingjin back then, as long as they are alive, they will find out for me!"

After Qinyin was ordered to withdraw, Concubine Xiang got up and walked to the bed, and took out a small porcelain bottle from the small drawer at the bottom of the bedboard.

"Yin Chen, I can't cover up a scar by tearing it open, I'll just wait to see what you did back then, even more heartbreaking than what you did to me......"
