At noon, the sun was shining, and Yuan Ge, as a female official of the Xianya Palace, had just dealt with a lot of trivial matters, and was already a little tired when he returned to the room.

But seeing that someone suddenly pushed open the door and walked in, Yuan Ge suddenly said vigilantly: "Who?" ”

Gardenia pushed the door in, put the food box on the table, took out the dishes inside and put them in front of Yuan Ge and said: "Of course it's me who brought you food, look at you, I haven't eaten any of my busy meals, no, Niangniang asked me to send two dishes to you." ”

Shang Kelan's attitude towards Yuan Ge has always been very detached, but she didn't expect to remember her, for a while, Yuan Ge's heart moved slightly, and said with a light smile: "There is a gardenia girl." ”

Yuan Ge doesn't smile on weekdays, but this smile, Gardenia is a little unaccustomed to it.

She joked: "Okay, okay, you eat first, I'll go to dine with my mother first, what's the matter!" ”

With that, Gardenia left here, Yuan Ge sat down in a complicated mood, picked up the chopsticks in his hand and ate them.

In the afternoon, Shang Kelan took Mama Chen and Gardenia to the Internal Affairs Mansion, and after asking if there were any suspicious people who entered Concubine Ning's palace yesterday, she returned to Xianya Palace.

When you are in the palace, Concubine Ning is in the palace.

After a good rest in the morning, Concubine Ning recovered a little, she sat up from the bed, and asked Cui'er to dress herself carefully, and waited for the emperor to arrive.

Cui'er told Concubine Ning the news of her afternoon inquiry: "Niangniang, the slave maid found out that after Concubine Chen had lunch in the Xianya Palace, she went around like a headless fly, and took Mama Chen and Gardenia to the Internal Affairs Mansion, but she didn't find any useful news!" ”

As she spoke, Cui'er couldn't help but laugh proudly.

Concubine Ning glanced at her, and said lightly: "Do you think Concubine Chen's slut is so foolish?" Maybe this is just a trick on her face, you continue to send someone to keep an eye on her, and if she makes any moves, you can report it to me!" ”

Cui'er didn't dare to slack off, and responded: "The slave obeys the order!" ”

With that, Cui'er withdrew.

As soon as she left, a loud and shrill voice sounded outside the palace gate: "Your Majesty has arrived!" ”

Concubine Ning was overjoyed, and got up to greet her with the support of the palace maids: "The concubine sees Your Majesty!" ”

In the afternoon, Jin Yantang changed into a light blue embroidered moire brocade robe, covered with a layer of tulle, which looked a little less indifferent and more easy-going than usual.

Concubine Ning's eyes were stunned, and Jin Yantang helped her up, and said, "Concubine Ai is polite, have you had dinner?" ”

Concubine Ning lowered her eyes shyly and said, "The concubine is concerned about Your Majesty, and she has not yet eaten......"

When she lowered her head, a touch of impatience flashed in Jin Yantang's eyes, and he gently helped Concubine Ning to sit down, and then said: "I have a lot of political affairs to deal with today, I'm afraid it's too late to rest here with you, you have to take good care of you and my children, understand?" ”

Concubine Ning's throat moved, and the words she wanted to keep became a docile sentence when she came to her mouth: "The concubine obeys orders." ”

The fluttering four words made Concubine Ning feel uncomfortable in her heart.

Jin Yantang did not stay with Concubine Ning for a long time, and after having dinner with her, he went to the imperial study to deal with government affairs.

He is busy with the court and governing the country on weekdays, the scheming and means of the queen and the queen mother are not enough to settle down, Concubine Hua and Concubine Ning are even horizontal and vertical, and he has to pay attention to the things in the harem, so in the past few days, one after another troubles have piled up in Jin Yantang's heart, and the cold color between Jin Yantang's eyebrows has also become a little heavier.

In order not to let people see anything unusual, he wore this light blue embroidered moire gown, which didn't look dignified.

Concubine Ning watched his back after he left, her fingers gradually clenched together, her eyes were so gloomy that she could drip water, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

At three o'clock, the sky is dark, and the glow of the summer evening shrouds the Imperial Garden, which seems to be plated with a layer of rainbow light, which is extremely beautiful.

There was a faint fragrance of gardenias wafting in the air, and the smell was refreshing, and Jin Yantang's footsteps couldn't help but slow down.

Suddenly, a woman in a lilac tulle dress with a cloudy bun walked towards her, followed by a grandmother in a navy blue palace dress and a large palace maid in a light yellow palace dress.

The purple-clothed woman who was the leader moved lightly, and seemed to be talking to the people on both sides of her while walking, seeing this, Jin Yantang couldn't help but slowly stop.

Fu Pu followed behind Jin Yantang, and when he saw his gaze looking forward, he couldn't help but follow his gaze as well.

Suddenly, Fupu's face was overjoyed, and he whispered beside Jin Yantang: "Your Majesty, look, isn't that the concubine of Xianya Palace?" What a coincidence between you and her! ”

At the same time, the two were separated by a distance of about two hundred meters, and Shang Kelan had not yet discovered the existence of Jin Yantang.

On both sides of the cobblestone path, flowers bloom in the waning afterglow, and in the cool wind blowing through the leaves, Shang Kelan talks to Mama Chen and Gardenia.

"I went to the Internal Affairs Office today, and I learned that there were no suspicious people in Concubine Ning's palace yesterday, and tomorrow, Mama Chen will go to the Tai Hospital with the palace."

As soon as Shang Kelan's words fell, Mama Chen said respectfully: "The Queen Mother, her old man, ordered the slave maid to assist the mother in investigating the case, and the slave and maid should do their best to do things for the mother." ”

Gardenia was about to ask Shang Kelan what her plans were, when she inadvertently raised her eyes and saw the emperor standing in front of her, and the emperor seemed to be waiting for her mother to pass?

Thinking of this, Gardenia's face instantly became happy, and she hurriedly pulled Shang Kelan to signal her to look ahead, and said, "Niangniang, Niangniang!" It's Your Majesty! You see, Your Majesty is waiting for you in front! ”

Your Majesty...... Is that him?

Shang Kelan raised her eyes slightly, and a moment of stunned color suddenly appeared in her beautiful peach blossom eyes.

Then she lowered her eyebrows and lowered her head, standing respectfully aside, waiting for Jin Yantang to pass by her.

She didn't take the initiative to step forward, Jin Yantang stood in place again, and for a while, a cool wind blew between the two of them, and fell to the ground with a leaf.

Gardenia wondered why her mother didn't come forward to greet Jin Yantang, but instead saluted Jin Yantang from a distance of 100 meters, and couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

But since Shang Kelan did this, she also knelt beside her like Shang Kelan.

Mama Chen also saluted Jin Yantang.

Two hundred meters, this not far and not close distance, Jin Yantang neither stepped forward, nor Shang Kelan went over, and it seemed that there was a stalemate.

On the side, Fu Pu couldn't help but cautiously said to Jin Yantang: "Your Majesty, why don't you go over and say hello to Concubine Chen?" ”

"No, just take this road back to the imperial study."

Almost as soon as his words fell, Jin Yantang said this.

His voice was low, his tone was indifferent, and he passed in front of Shang Kelan calmly with his feet raised, and he didn't look at her, as if he didn't have the same affection for him as rumored.

Fu Pu lowered his head and followed behind Jin Yantang, not daring to take a breath.

Seeing that Jin Yantang passed in front of her mother so indifferently, Gardenia couldn't help but grit her teeth, helped Shang Kelan to stand up and said, "Niangniang, Your Majesty, he is too ......."

"Gardenia, go back to the palace!"

Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Shang Kelan's indifferent voice!
