The night breeze blew, blowing away Nalan Lan'er's hair that was casually held behind her ears, and she looked at Ye Wushuang in shock, not expecting him to bring it up so quickly.

Unconsciously, he stopped, and the leaves no longer rustled, quietly listening to this very calm and solemn event.

The eldest prince looked up at his father and mother who were holding his hand, and continued to be well-behaved, although the queen looked very highly at the prince, but most of the time it was handed over to the nurse to take care of, at that time the eldest prince was young, and he was not impressed by the dead queen, plus he was surrounded by a large group of palace people every day, and there was a royal grandmother who was in pain, and for him, the appearance of the biological mother and concubine had been diluted.

Nalan Lan'er looked down at the prince, and her hair fell: "Your Majesty...... Isn't that right? ”

Ye Wushuang looked at her, his eyes were complicated: "Lan'er, are you unwilling to raise the emperor?" I just saw that you like the emperor so much, so I made this suggestion, and in the future, you can justifiably let the emperor call you a concubine. ”

The eldest prince seemed to understand a little, looked up at Ye Wushuang and said, "Father, doesn't the mother concubine like her sons?" After speaking, the little hands holding Nalan Lan'er gradually let go.

It is said that children's sensitivity should not be underestimated. Nalan Lan'er had no other views on the queen's child, and knew that Ye Wushuang was actually trying to put her on the throne of the queen by doing this. But since her memory was restored, she had a slight resistance to her opinion of the queen's position.

Becoming queen is good for her revenge, at least it can open a way for her brother? However, the empress dowager will definitely not agree to this matter, combined with the pressure of the Manchu civil and military forces, the emperor may still compromise in the end, rather than being so radical, it is better to retreat as advance.

With the same complexion, Nalan Lan squatted down and looked at the eldest prince: "How could the mother concubine dislike you?" It's too late to hurt the emperor. ”

As he spoke, he looked up at Ye Wushuang and said: "Your Majesty, I just picked up the eldest prince from the queen mother's bedroom today, and it is not good to pass the emperor to the concubine's name so quickly, the queen mother doesn't like the concubine, and she has been in poor health recently, so let's talk about it in the future?" ”

Hearing this, Ye Wushuang calmed down and realized that what Lan'er said made sense, the queen mother had always disliked Lan'er, and he didn't sit like this to let Lan'er stabilize the position of the harem as soon as possible, but to make her and the queen mother even more estranged.

He sighed and said, "Lan'er has a heart, the queen mother has always been dissatisfied with you because you resemble the former queen. It's hard for you to worry about her body so much, it's my negligence. ”

Nalan Lan'er smiled, stretched out her hand and touched the fleshy little face of the eldest prince: "Now there is really no one in this harem who can take good care of the eldest prince, the emperor is busy with politics, can he hand over the eldest prince to the care of his concubines?" The concubines must take good care of the eldest prince. ”

Ye Wushuang looked at Nalan Lan'er without suspicion, and said with a smile: "Of course you can, is Lin'er willing to live with her mother?" ”

"Erchen is willing. Mother hug. The eldest prince stretched out his hand, but was stopped by Ye Wushuang.

"Huang'er, you are already three years old, you should be sensible. The mother concubine is not in good health and can't hold you. Do you understand? ”

Nalan Lan'er smiled and looked at the eldest prince and touched his head: "I'm sorry, the mother concubine is too useless." ”

Suddenly thinking of something, Nalan Lan'er looked at Ye Wushuang and asked longingly: "Your Majesty, can the concubine call the eldest prince Lin'er?" ”

"Why not?" Ye Wushuang replied with a smile, and the low laughter was as clear as the fight in the farmhouse of that village many years ago.

Hearing this, Nalan Lan'er shook her head.

When the eldest prince heard his father laughing, he was also happy, covering his eyes with his hands and saying strangely: "The mother concubine looked at her father without blinking, and the son didn't see anything." ”

Nalan Lan'er stared at the lively eldest prince, and then looked at Ye Wushuang in disbelief and said, "Your Majesty, where did Lin'er learn this?" How did this three-year-old child know about these messes and was worried about the concubines. ”

The wind was blowing, the leaves rustled again, and the light of the lantern that was not too bright dimmed Nalan Lan'er's delicate facial features. It's enough to make the night unshuang.

From the moment he entered the palace, he favored Lan'er alone, but there were too many concubines, and sometimes he felt that Lan'er was a little tired, and occasionally compared other concubines with more than Lan'er.

didn't expect one or two to break his heart, after so many years, only Lan'er was by his side.

This short-term family happiness, he wants to go on for a long time, Ye Wushuang smiled a little proudly: "My children have been talented and intelligent since they were young, and Lan'er will get used to it in the future." ”

Lin'er let go of the hands that pretended to cover her face, and it was a pleasure to be praised by her father.

Nalan Lan'er looked at the two fathers and sons depressed, and remembered that the queen mother seemed to have said that the eldest prince was very well-behaved and obedient, and he didn't like to talk much? Sure enough, there were many rumors in the palace, and I couldn't believe it.

Ye Wushuang raised his hand and touched the top of Lin'er's head: "Don't be proud, you still have to be obedient and sensible in front of the Queen Mother, understand?" ”

Threesome, one left for the mother and one right for the father, the little man in the middle nodded teachably.

Nalan Lan'er and the emperor looked at each other and smiled, and the heavy burden in each other's hearts was unloaded on this not too cold night.

After walking for a while, the eldest prince was young and easy to get sleepy, and the father-in-law who was waiting for him at night Wushuang sent him back to the Qianlong Palace.

then accompanied Nalan Lan'er back to Huayan Palace, and lingered all night.

When Nalan Lan'er woke up tired, it was already three o'clock in the morning, Wan'er was waiting next to her, and when she heard the movement, she hurriedly took her clothes and stepped forward and whispered, "Is Niang Niang awake?" ”

It took a while for Nalan Lan'er to come to her senses, and she looked at Wan'er who leaned over to ask about herself after looking at the bed tent, and then she spoke

"Wake up. Let the palace maid bring hot water in, and the palace will bathe. ”

Wan'er stepped forward to pull the quilt for her to prevent her from catching a cold, and when she answered the call, she retreated to the door and instructed the palace maid. Then he came back and waited for her to put on a simple dress.

"What time is it?" In order to let Nalan Lan'er sleep well, the light in the dormitory was relatively dim. Nalan Lan'er, who had slept for a long time, couldn't tell what time it was.

"Back to Niangniang, it's time now." Wan'er replied with a smile, her eyes a little narrow.

Nalan Lan'er glared at her strangely, and said with some surprise: "Why has this palace slept for so long, Si Shi?" Lunch is coming soon. ”

"Indeed, the mother is hungry? Eat something before bathing or drink some soup for lunch after bathing? ”

Nalan Lan'er shook her head, sat up and prepared to get out of bed and said, "Let's eat after bathing." Hongu is not very hungry yet. After looking at Wan'er's expression, he said, "You girl is so bold, you even dare to make jokes in this palace, right?" ”

Wan'er has been waiting for Nalan Lan'er for many years, and she is as smart as she naturally knows that her master is not angry, so she still pretends to be afraid and says: "Back to Niangniang, the slave doesn't dare, Niangniang spares her life." ”

"As long as your mouth is poor, go ahead, see if the palace maid prepares the hot water, this palace really wants to take a comfortable bath."

Wan'er happily responded, went down to arrange the things to be used for the bath, and after a quarter of an hour, Nalan Lan'er took a bath and was refreshed.

Under the waitings of Wan'er and Cailian, dressed everything, it was almost lunchtime, just walked out of the palace gate, and the father-in-law who was waiting for the emperor outside the door took seven or eight people, and saluted Nalan Lan'er with a smile: "The slave has seen the concubine Niangniang, Niangniang Jin'an." ”

Wan'er looked at the things that the eunuch was holding behind, and she had a bottom in her heart, the emperor hadn't rewarded Niangniang for a long time. I'm afraid these are all tips.

Nalan Lan'er didn't have a shelf to let her father-in-law get up, her father-in-law thanked and roared, his face wrinkled into a chrysanthemum with a smile, and he continued to bow down and said: "Congratulations to Niangniang, congratulations to Niangniang, these agate and excellent Hetian jade from the Southern Dynasty, as well as a priceless screen, are all rewarded to you by the emperor." ”

The corners of Nalan Lan'er's mouth were hooked as if she was happy, but there was no very happy emotion in her eyes. The jaw head blessed and said: "The father-in-law thanked the emperor for the reward on behalf of the palace." Wan'er ......"

Nalan Lan'er looked at Wan'er slightly sideways, and motioned for her to come forward to receive these rewards.

The father-in-law is also a discerning person, and hurriedly ordered the servants behind him to carry the things into the hall, and Wan'er took them away in front and arranged where to put them.

When most of the servants entered the palace to place tribute, the father-in-law stepped forward to curry favor and said: "Niangniang is really favored, the emperor was in a very good mood when he was in the court this morning." No, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty mentioned the matter of filling the harem again, and the emperor responded. ”

Nalan Lan'er felt a chill in her heart, and really tried to convince herself that this was inevitable, but when it was really settled, she still couldn't be happy.

All the emotions in this palace are well hidden, so Lan'er glanced at her father-in-law with a smile, and said with some relief: "The emperor has finally agreed to fill the harem, and the queen mother should be very happy." Be cautious about this draft. ”

The father-in-law saw that Nalan Guifei did not have any sad emotions, and he was relieved in his heart, and deliberately asked this question, but it was actually the emperor who ordered him to come and explore the situation, and this time it was a good deal.

"Niangniang is also so pleased, everyone is really happy, the queen mother does not preside over the draft, and there is only one Niangniang in the harem, and I am afraid that this matter will be handed over to Niangniang."

Nalan Lan'er still kept a smile and said: "This palace will choose carefully, my father-in-law has worked hard." ”

After speaking, the minions who went in to put things out in a neat and orderly manner, Wan'er came to Niangniang's side and whispered, Nalan Lan'er nodded.

The father-in-law smiled again like Nilefo and saluted: "Niangniang, so the slave will go back to his life." ”

Nalan Lan'er motioned for Wan'er to send it, and she stood in place and nodded with a smile, watching them leave.

Cailian has always been by her side, following her to the yard under the tree, Niangniang has a quirk in winter, and when it is cold, she also likes to go to the tree in a daze, and no one is allowed to approach.

Facing the big tree, Nalan Lan'er was thinking about the meaning of the things sent by her father-in-law, except because of the holy favor, her father-in-law told her just now that the emperor's promise to the draft was a temptation, right?

Her feelings for the emperor are still there, but they are not as pure as they were at the beginning. The emperor has also broken her heart again and again, and she already has a sense of crisis.
