Li Wanyan looked at the good dishes on the table, depressed in her heart, and lost her appetite, "I have no appetite, I don't want to eat." ”

She thought to herself that she was thinking about her when she was eating, but her sister didn't tell her anything, and secretly went to the imperial garden alone, and she didn't know if it was a private meeting with the emperor, and she became angry when she thought of this.

Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Lianxiang stood aside and didn't dare to persuade her again.

After a while, Li Wanyan suddenly looked at Lianxiang again and asked, "What did the emperor and the imperial concubine have rewarded Xinchang?" ”

"Back to the little master, the emperor didn't reward anything, just some pastries and food, and there was an aunt who taught Xi, and the imperial concubine just put on some good materials, jewelry and fetal medicine." Lianxiang replied.

Li Wanyan stared, a little jealous in her heart Li Xinyue was promoted again, and she was rewarded again, she was favored yesterday, it was no gift, and even Concubine Rong called her to recite the Buddhist scriptures all night, which is really more popular than people.

"The emperor didn't send someone to ask about my situation?"

Lianxiang shook her head.

Li Wanyan couldn't be more angry, the emperor was so gentle and affectionate to her yesterday, and he left her behind today.

I remember to give Li Xinyue the food she likes, but I forgot to ask myself how she was last night, it's really unkind!

What's even more hateful is that the imperial concubine, she also went to bed the night before, why didn't she come over to care about the medicine, and now give it to Xin Chang, which is obviously to tell everyone that she is always there, so that everyone does not dare to act rashly.

Li Xinyue is obviously friendly with her, but she also deliberately sends things and gives favors, what does this mean? This is clearly trying to win her over! It's just excessive!

She was silent, thinking about what else she could think of to prevent Li Xinyue from being pulled away by the imperial concubine.

Although she was a little jealous and dissatisfied with Li Xinyue, she still needed her, and even if she didn't need to, she couldn't let the imperial concubine's power become bigger, so it would be difficult for her to fight against her alone.

Li Wanyan looked at Lianxiang and asked with a calm face: "Lianxiang, the imperial concubine is also my aunt and Xin Changzai, but she didn't take care of me for half a minute yesterday, but today she is so good to Xin Changzai, what do you think the imperial concubine thinks?" ”

Lian Xiang hurriedly said: "The slave doesn't dare to speculate on the master's thoughts. ”

"It's okay, you're my person, I'll let you say it, and I'll protect you."

Lian Xiang bit her lip and replied: "The slave maid thinks that the imperial concubine may not be unconcerned about the little master, but Xinchang is in a higher position, so the imperial concubine sent a congratulatory gift, maybe she has no other thoughts." ”

"Perhaps?" Li Wanyan grabbed the self-talk in her words.

Raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you think the imperial concubine might have on her mind?" ”

Feeling the pressure coming from her, Lian Xiang hurriedly knelt down and said: "The slave doesn't dare to talk about the imperial concubine, and the imperial concubine's mind is not clear. ”

"I don't know, or don't you dare to say it?" Li Wanyan suddenly raised her voice.

She wanted to see if the people around her respected the imperial concubine more or respected her.

On the one hand, he is talking about the great crime of the imperial concubine, and on the other hand, he is his own master, and it is difficult to choose which side.

Lian Xiang thought to herself, since she was already the one who served Wan Concubine, that Wan Concubine was her master, and she had to do whatever the master wanted her to do, so she should say whatever she wanted to hear.

She spoke: "Back to the little master, the slave maid thinks that the imperial concubine is likely to want to win over Xin Changzai. ”

Hearing her say this, Li Wanyan's eyebrows became calm, "Why do you think so?" On what basis? ”

"Back to the little master, the slave maid has been in this palace for many years, and she knows a lot about the things in this palace, the women in this palace have no heirs, there is no security, and no matter how favored by the emperor is, there will always be a day when she is disgusted."

"But it's different when you have a child, for the sake of the child, even if the emperor is bored, he will move around more, and the imperial concubine knows this."

Li Wanyan picked up a piece of pastry and said, "Go on." ”

Lian Xiang didn't dare to get up, and continued to kneel on the ground and said: "Although the imperial concubine has always been favored, but this belly just doesn't improve, if it weren't for this, the other ladies in the palace would have already attacked her, the imperial concubine had also won over others in order to stabilize her position, but some concubines were jealous of her being favored and didn't want to follow her, only those women with low status and helplessness would be attached to her." ”

Lianxiang has been with her for so long, and she has never said much about the affairs of the palace, so that Li Wanyan is not very clear about the affairs in the palace and the distribution of forces.

She took a sip of water and said, "So you mean that Xin Chang is a concubine in her position, and she is a relative of the imperial concubine, so the imperial concubine wants to win over Xin Changzai?" ”

"These are just the slave's speculations, and there is no evidence, and the slave and maid dare not make conclusions." Lianxiang replied.

"I don't know much about the person who still has the imperial concubine in this palace, you have been in the palace for so many years, and you know more things than me, how likely do you think this speculation is?"

"Back to the little master, the slave maid thinks that it is very likely, you can know by watching the imperial concubine send fetal medicine to Xin Changzai, if Xin Changzai really has a dragon heir, the imperial concubine has a high status, and she is Xin Changzai's aunt, if the imperial concubine wants to raise the child in the past, the emperor will agree."

Li Wanyan wiped her hands with a handkerchief, looked at Lianxiang on the ground and said, "Xin Chang is telling me about her menstrual affairs, what do you think?" ”

"Back to the little master, what Xin Chang is saying is true, the palace maid did not see Luo Hong on the bed when she cleaned the room in the morning, and there are indeed blood stains on Xin Chang's clothes and pants, which shows that Xin Chang did not deceive the little master."

"Well, you're doing well, get up." Li Wanyan said.

Lian Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, "The slave thanked the little master. ”

"This Qingning Palace is all in charge of you, do you think Xin Changzai is closer to me or to the imperial concubine?" Li Wanyan asked.

"The palace maids who cleaned the house today heard Xin Chang talking, Xin Chang was saying that it was all to help the little master and you, and didn't want the little master to be bullied anymore, so they served the emperor well, and the slave felt that Xin Chang should care more about the little master."

Li Wanyan nodded with satisfaction, "Although my current position is not high, but I have my father, my status will get higher and higher sooner or later, follow me well, I will not treat you badly, but if you have other thoughts and don't think about me, then I'm afraid I won't be able to keep you by my side." ”

Lian Xiang was frightened into a cold sweat by her words, and hurriedly expressed her loyalty: "The slave maid is the palace maid of the mother, so she naturally plans for the mother, and the slave and maid dare not have other thoughts." ”

"This is the best, now that the imperial concubine wants to win over my sister and leave me alone, what do you think the palace should do to protect itself?" Li Wanyan asked.
