"What!" Uncle Song was shocked when he heard this, and the chess pieces in his hand fell onto the chessboard.

"Then where is the palace accessible to ordinary people like us? It is said that the harem is like a bottomless pit, and how many people who enter it can live a good life. Taiwei swore to treat you well, why is he pushing you into the tiger's den in Longtan now! ”

Uncle Song was angry the more he talked, so he simply got up and walked out, intending to find the captain to say fairness.

"Daddy!"

Li Shenlan finally opened her mouth to stop the old man, and after shouting, she knelt straight down in front of Uncle Song.

"Dad, we didn't think of that in the first place. What kind of free dinner will there be in this world, and since the captain has recognized me, he naturally has his purpose. Li Shenlan knew that her father was worried about herself, and she was also sad in her heart, and tears fell with her.

But the words always have to be made clear, for Uncle Song not to think too much, Li Shenlan can only continue to be relieved.

"Besides, isn't my daughter like a brocade concubine, and after entering the house, she was also loved by her wife. Thinking that Concubine Jin was the only one to be favored back then, and her daughter was a little similar, it may not be a good thing. ”

Uncle Song was also uncomfortable, watching his daughter kneeling on the ground and crying like a tearful person, and thinking about comforting himself, his heart was like being cut by a knife.

"Silly boy, don't get on your knees. It's just like this, once your mother and I thought that you would have a good husband and a stable life for a lifetime, but now we can't do it. ”

Li Shenlan slowly got up, shook her head when she heard this, and wanted Uncle Song not to think about it.

"The father can't think like this, when he enters the palace, he doesn't want to be spoiled alone, he just wants to live a stable life. If you want to live smoothly in this palace, it is the simplest thing, as long as you are unknown and do not compete for favor, you will not be in danger. ”

This is said lightly, but everyone knows that the Taiwei let Li Shenlan enter the palace in order to compete for favor, so as to consolidate the position of the Li family. It's just that Li Shenlan has already said this, and Uncle Song can only comfort himself with this.

After this day, if the second elder of the Song family wants to find out about Li Shenlan's current situation, I am afraid it will be even more difficult than ascending to the sky.

"That's it, it's useless to regret it now. It's rare for you to come back, I'm happy with your mother, since it's rare to reunite, let's stop thinking about these unhappy things. Let's finish this game. ”

Li Shenlan hurriedly responded, helped Uncle Song to sit down, and then sat down and played chess again.

Mother Song's meal was soon ready, and she happily beckoned the father and daughter to the table, only to find that the mood of the two was not as happy as at the beginning. Seeing that he couldn't hide it, Uncle Song still told Song's mother the truth. Mother Song was also sad when she learned about it, but everyone knew that she couldn't change the situation.

The family could only eat this reunion dinner with a smile on their faces.

It is said that the time for reunion always passes the fastest, and Li Shenlan didn't take this seriously before, until the coachman outside reminded him that it was time to leave for the Taiwei Mansion, and Li Shenlan felt that this time passed really fast.

"Yuanyuan, if you are alone in the Taiwei Mansion, you must take care of yourself. When I was cooking, I saw that Bang Chun was very clever, and she was by your side, and we were relieved to be by your side......"

When it was time to part, Li Shenlan was also sad. It's not so much that the tears are falling again, but that they haven't stopped coming in.

"Dad, mother, you must also take care of yourself. I don't know when my daughter will come to see you again, you don't have to worry about food and clothing here, you must take good care of your body......"

Li Shenlan said while crying, and her words were not smooth in the depths of her love.

The driver outside the door once again reminded everyone that it was time.

Seeing that she was about to get into the carriage, Li Shenlan turned around again to say goodbye to the second elder. After the three heavy bangs fell, Li Shenlan's heart was ruthless, and she didn't look at her father and mother standing in front of her, and sped up her pace and entered the carriage.

The second elder watched until Yang Chen in the carriage was gone, and then reluctantly returned to the house. There were only two lines of traffic left on the road, which seemed to prove the fact that Li Shenlan had come......

Besides, in the house on the outskirts of Beijing, Li Mingyue arrived at her destination when the day was approaching.

When I entered the house, I saw where people could live. The garden is full of weeds, and from time to time there are night cats jumping by. Li Mingyue was frightened and screamed at the time, but there was no way. The order of the captain was in a hurry, and the subordinates had no time to clean up the house.

Although the accompanying subordinates have cleaned it up in the past few days, the house that has been in disrepair for a long time is basically a heaven and an underground compared to the Taiwei Mansion.

Because of the framing of Li Shenlan, Qiu Ju, the original maid beside Li Mingyue, was punished and driven out of the house. Now the one who is waiting by his side is still the red plum that Xiao begged the captain to dial in half a day two days ago.

"Take it down, take it down, you can't eat this thing at all." The ingredients in the house are not fresh at all, and these dishes were brought to Li Mingyue for the Xiao family when Hongmei came over two days ago.

"Miss, eat as much as you want. I'm still angry, and I don't know when I'll take you back. ”

The implication of this is nothing more than that Li Mingyue doesn't eat it, so he still has the life to wait for the captain to pick him up. Li Mingyue, who was already angry, heard this, and smashed the plate even more angrily.

"It's not all Li Shenlan's woman! You came here on your aunt's orders, but your aunt didn't let you bring some words? ”

The master didn't say much, just let the slave take care of the third lady. What's more, the master said that she was very good in the house, and the young lady could do whatever she wanted to do with confidence. The master will definitely help you. ”

Li Mingyue suddenly became energetic when she heard this, as if she had been beaten with chicken blood, and even the food in front of her felt an appetite.

"You're here, my aunt can tell me when I'm going back."

"The slave and maid just serve you, and the master will send someone to deliver something every five days."

"In this case, the next time you get something, pass a message to my aunt for me......"

Inside the palace walls, the queen was tired on a tiring day, and she was lying on the pear wood couch with some dejection. Xiyan pressed the queen's shoulder behind him, chatting without stubble.

"Niangniang has been discussing the draft with Xiang Concubine Niangniang and them for the past two days, so I'm tired."

"These are the duties of this palace, what is not tired." The queen said as she opened her half-squinted eyes and looked at the begonia tree outside the window. It hasn't bloomed yet this season, but the leaves are already green. "Who is the emperor staying there tonight?"

Hearing this, Xiyan paused for the work in hand, and thought about it carefully before saying: "The affairs of the court and China have been heavy these days, and the emperor has not entered the harem for several days. Niangniang, seeing that the draft is about to begin, new show girls come in large numbers, and it will be even more difficult for Niangniang to see the emperor in the future. ”

Xi Yan said this for the queen's good, but the queen was indifferent when she heard it.

"!"

"The body of this palace has long been unsuitable for childbirth, and it is spring, and the body of this palace is still cold."

"That's because Niangniang doesn't take medicine well, as long as Niangniang takes medicine well according to the doctor's instructions, how can she not be pregnant." Xiyan was still nagging about something, but suddenly thought of something.

"By the way, Niangniang, the Ministry of Rites sent someone to ask you for advice, did this draft take the pre-selected show girls into the palace as usual?"

"The palace remembers that there was such a general election when the first emperor was there, and the daughters of officials and women, as well as businessmen and commoners, all entered the palace. There are too many people, so it's better to choose first, and then take them into the palace after the number of people is decided. ”

"Yes, the slave maid heard that there was a civilian woman who won the election that year, and the emperor was very favored. I just don't know how I died later......"

The queen was stunned when she heard the words and drank tea, but it was also fleeting.

"The flowers in the harem have always bloomed and failed. Okay, tell the Ministry of Rites what the palace means. ”

"Yes, slave and maid will go."
