She only pointed to the concubines to say things, and Concubine Ying had a feeling of lifting a stone to hit her own feet, but she wanted to prevaricate based on these few words, and it was impossible, "They are just little palace maids, Changjue and you didn't say to face that they wanted to mention their identities, and what is it to accept a side concubine in at this time, Lan Yi, don't be too weak, let others kick their noses in the face, this is a degradation of the majesty of our heavenly family, and the emperor will not allow it." ”

Lan Yi pushed the boat down the river and beat it, "What the concubine said is that the background of the palace maid is really nothing, but the concubines are all selected by you, and they serve Changjue with all their hearts, in order not to chill their hearts, but also for you to have a loving heart, I also promised them that for a while, there will be no outsiders to share their favor." ”

Speaking of this, Lan Yi slowly knelt down and said guiltily: "It is said that the gentleman is a promise of a thousand gold, Changjue has his father's words and deeds, and he doesn't want his son's plan to become counted, and he doesn't want to break his word, so this time he can only resign from the elder. ”

It's not that the emperor can't see that Lan Yi has been rejecting Concubine Ying, but this girl speaks decently, takes care of everyone's face, and acts without leakage, which is very in line with what a daughter-in-law should look like in the emperor's heart, not to mention that the husband she protects, Wei Changjue, has always been honest and gentle, and after today's incident, the emperor felt that he was much more tolerant and benevolent than Wei Changze, and he leaned towards them for a while.

"That's it, the children have their own ideas, let them go." Seeing that Concubine Ying still wanted to fight, the emperor reassured, "I know your kindness, and they all know it, Changjue is very grateful and will keep your care in his heart." This girl of the Ji family, I look at it very well, it is better for me to be the master and give Chang Yin to be the princess. ”

Concubine Ying was unwilling, "But the emperor, this was originally chosen by the concubine for ......"

"As long as it's a good girl, Yishu IKEA, it's okay to give it to any prince, Chang Yin loves poetry and books, and it's just right for the Ji family, so I gave the two of them a marriage, and it can be regarded as living up to your intentions, how about it?"

Concubine Ying smiled in the end, "The emperor thinks this is appropriate, and the concubines naturally approve, after all, your vision is much better than that of the concubines." It's just that I'm afraid that Chang Yin will think that this girl of the Ji family was originally set for his third emperor brother, and he will feel uncomfortable. ”

Who knew that Wei Changyin was obsessed with poetry, books, singing and dancing, and didn't care about what had just happened, but saw that Ji Ruoping had been standing there cramped and uneasy and the grievances of being picked, and pity arose, and he got up and said: "The concubine is too worried, how many people can't ask for the marriage given by the father, not to mention that Miss Ji is delicate and elegant, and talented, such a beautiful woman, the sons and daughters will regard it as a treasure." ”

Obviously, this sentence is very similar to Wei Changjue's meaning, both of which are expressions of willingness to pamper his wife, but Wei Changyin has always been alone, and there is no identity like "sister-in-law" to attract topics, others will only say that he really has the infatuation of a literati.

Lan Yi knows that many things in this world are originally unfair.

Just like Ji Ruoping, a good girl, she wants to be pulled over to perform in front of so many strangers, and she has to be selected and evaluated like Fang Wanyin, and she didn't do anything wrong, but it was just because she was favored by Concubine Ying.

After that, there was nothing new, the eldest prince Wei Changqi was a good person, the first to raise a glass to congratulate his younger brother on his marriage, and ridiculed Wei Changjue twice, saying that he was indeed trustworthy and righteous, and finally enlivened the atmosphere.

And after Ji Ruoping retreated, Lan Yi deliberately looked in her direction a few more times, and saw that this girl drank the fruit wine in front of her several times, guessing that she was still a little sad in her heart.

Although this fruit wine is not easy to intoxicate, the woman is not good at drinking too much after all, so Lan Yi specially instructed Ning Lan to take care of it.

When the banquet was dispersed, Ji Ruoping was really drunk, Ning Fu helped Lan Yi with her errands, and now she was very orderly, she asked the little maid who came to the paddock with Lan Yi to help Ji Ruoping up, and took Ji Ruoping's personal maid to sit in Lan Yi's tent, and came back and whispered: "Miss Ji doesn't live alone, the slave maid made a private decision to take it to you first, cook some sobering soup, and then send it back when she drinks better." ”

Lan Yi nodded, "Very good, she doesn't let more people see it like this, I'm afraid that she is obviously not in a bad mood and is not coming for us, but in the future, there will be some broken mouths to rely on us for this matter, now Miss Ji has already made a decision with the Sixth Emperor Brother, in case there is any discord between the brothers, it is not very good." ”

Then he praised Ningfu, "You have thought about everything now, I am very relieved." ”

Ning Fu happily left here to instruct people first, and came back after a while, and although this side of the room said that the banquet was dispersed, but in fact, it was just the emperor and the empress concubines leaving, and it was rare for the young people to leave the palace to have a good time, and naturally there were many people who drank and ate barbecue around the bonfire.

And Lan Yi can also walk around, leaving the table to talk to Mu Hesheng.

Before, the two of them were sitting face to face across the bonfire, although they had a thousand words, they were not allowed to get closer to say, Lan Yi saw that in these short days, Mu Hesheng had lost a lot of weight, and it was not until he got closer that he could see more truly that Mu Hesheng's eyes were haggard that could not be pretended.

"Why do you not know how to maintain it? The blue color under your eye sockets can't be covered by fat powder. Lan Yi hated her, "No matter what is in your heart, your body is the first priority, you are sad and your body is broken, those women under King Yu's mansion, I don't know how happy they will be." ”

"The truth is clear, when it's time to do it, you can't do everything." Mu Hesheng smiled, took Lan Yi's hand, and looked somewhere, "Look at her, she is pestering His Highness like this." ”

Lan Yi also followed her gaze to look over there, it was Pei Miaoqing who followed behind Wei Changze, because there were no elders here, she gestured and between her eyebrows and eyes, without a little restraint, she could give birth to flattery with a smile, Wei Changze liked it very much, and picked her chin with the strength of wine, and said something thoughtfully, telling Pei Miaoqing with a shy face. These two people almost didn't do anything ridiculous and didn't know how to be polite.

Lan Yi felt a little pain in his heart, I don't know if it was because Mu Hesheng was sad, or because of the path Pei Miaoqing chose, and asked, "In the palace, they are often like this?" ”

"In the palace, it's more excessive than that." Mu Hesheng picked up the wine cup and drank it all, as if he was drinking his own blood, "Chang Ze likes Pei Miaoqing very much, not to mention that he has only been in the palace for a long time, and he has a fresh energy. Pei Miaoqing respected me at first, came to say hello every morning, and served me for breakfast, but later Chang Ze was pampered, and he didn't even bother to go through the motions on the surface. Lan Yi, I heard that the concubines in your house never have to stand up for rules, you have to be careful, after a long time, they should turn the sky upside down. ”

Lan Yi felt sorry for her, "It's all this time, and you still think about me." Don't worry, I am in charge of the inner house in Prince Gong's mansion, no matter how thoughtful they are, I can control it, and Changjue can't tolerate them being disrespectful to me. I don't say this to make you unhappy, it's really like this, and what kind of attitude a man has is very important. Besides, you know, that's my sister, otherwise I can help you get ahead now, so you won't be in a hurry here. ”

"I know, I know." Mu Hesheng nodded first, and then shook his head, "Even if Pei Miaoqing is not your sister, you can't help me take care of the affairs of Yuwangfu." The palace is full of concubines, I said Pei Miaoqing, she is unruly, and she will be punished, those minions are afraid of offending Changze, so they don't dare to do it at all, her arrogance is becoming more and more arrogant, the same as this bonfire. ”

Lan Yi thought about it, although he didn't want to stab Mu Hesheng in the heart again, but he had to say: "As you said, it's like this bonfire, no matter how prosperous it is, there will always be a moment when it burns out. He Sheng, maybe you think my words are not good, but pinching your dowry, eating and sleeping well every day, and taking care of your body are more important than anything else. ”

"In this case, only you and A-Niang will say to me, but A-Niang will make me patient, she said that women come like this." Mu Hesheng's face was flushed with drunken redness, leaned on Lan Yi and thought about it, and finally hesitated, "But Lan Yi, I love this man so much, he treats me like this, and he has never said a word of seriousness, although he loves Pei Miaoqing, he will also come to me to comfort me, the bowl of water in his hand is very flat." ”

"Then why didn't you sleep well? I see that you have lost a lot of weight compared to when you first got married, and the color of your eyes and head is not good. ”

Mu Hesheng's eyes were a little sparkling, and when he talked about it, he obviously couldn't get over that hurdle, "I had a quarrel with Chang Ze, you know, this hunt, Pei Miaoqing is just a concubine, you don't have to bring her, but Pei Miaoqing's pillow is blowing badly, Chang Ze said that he promised her, it's not good to regret it, I really can't help it, I made a fuss, in the end, blame me for not having any wrists, and I can't cure a concubine." ”

Lan Yi couldn't help but say: "But I think that the fourth emperor brother is not quite right from the beginning, knowing that it is such an occasion, it is not appropriate to agree to take the concubine out." ”

Mu Hesheng shook his head, "Lan Yi, you are my friend, so you stand in my point of view, I feel that Chang Ze is wrong, but Chang Ze is a prince, and there will only be more women around him, not less, Pei Miaoqing is still a person I have been in contact with and knows what kind of temperament, if someone else comes, maybe more powerful than her, it is all my usefulness, and Chang Ze will put his mind on them." ”

Left and right, it's a pity to treat marriage, the two have fundamentally different ideas, and they really can't persuade anything.
