But what Nalan Lan'er never expected was that it was not in her plan to accuse her of the death of her group, but it also unexpectedly helped her a lot.

Nalan Lan'er landed a chess piece steadily, and all the ways of the black chess pieces were sealed, and Wan'er's tense nerves were relaxed.

Wan'er took a sip of tea to suppress her shock, and said with a pun: "Niangniang, you really play a good hand of chess, I'm afraid that no one in the world can compare with Niangniang." ”

Nalan Lan'er pursed her lips and smiled, and said indifferently: "I said, this is just the first step. ”

Nalan Lan'er is no longer the weak and bully girl she used to be, she now understands that if you don't stand tall, everyone will step on your head; If you have great power, everyone will bow down to you.

And what she wants is the queen's crown!

In the blink of an eye, a year has passed. In the past year, Nalan Lan'er insisted on going to Kunning Palace and Fengyi Palace every morning to say goodbye, whether it was cold or hot, she was rain or shine.

Under her offensive, the Queen Mother's attitude has softened a lot, after all, she is getting older, and she has a lot of things to see more broadly than others.

But the queen is still that stubborn, and everyone in the palace knows that their queen is aggressive, even in the face of Nalan Lan'er, who obeys her.

Nalan Lan'er has really exhausted all her patience this year, she has covered the arrogance in her heart, and her posture in front of the queen cannot be lower, but she is still guarded against.

Nalan Lan'er looked at herself after dressing up in the bronze mirror and smiled with satisfaction. Perhaps it is precisely because of this that her fighting spirit will become more and more courageous.

Wan'er stood aside and looked at the plain clothes on Nalan Lan'er's body, and asked again: "Niangniang, this time the palace is very big in order to welcome the envoys of neighboring countries. The other concubines are all vying for beauty, are you going to wear this dress? ”

"Why not, I can't steal the limelight from the queen." She painted the color of her lipstick a little lighter, and the corners of her lips hooked: "I'm all doing this to keep her quiet, and when she is unprepared, let her die with one blow." ”

Wan'er smiled and said in Nalan Lan'er's ear: "Niangniang, no one can compare to you." ”

Nalan Lan'er smiled disapprovingly, looked down for a suitable headdress, and didn't see a trace of light flashing in Wan'er's eyes.

The silent palace comes alive only during banquets. Brightly colored lanterns were lit everywhere, and rows of palace maids hurried past with trays in hand.

Singing and laughing, singing and dancing, the palace is like a happy scene.

The most eye-catching are the emperor's concubines, who wear bright clothes like butterflies in the night in order to show themselves in front of the emperor. The officials who usually follow the rules can't help but take a few more looks.

Nalan Lan'er was submerged in this group of butterflies, and the plain clothes on her body made her look bland. But Ye Wushuang in the distance still saw her at a glance.

In the eyes of the lover, Nalan Lan'er at this time is even more beautiful and unworldly in his eyes.

Nalan Lan'er also saw Ye Wushuang, and when she saw him waving to her, she walked over.

The queen beside Ye Wushuang was wearing a gorgeous phoenix robe, and the jewelry on her head jingled with her footsteps. The queen, who wanted to compete with Nalan Lan'er tonight, was surprised for a moment when she saw her dressed ordinarily.

Nalan Lan'er saluted the emperor and queen, and when she got up, she saw the envoy of the neighboring country next to the emperor, a pale and skinny man.

The messenger brought many gifts, including several pairs of beautifully crafted hairpins. The emperor gave these jewels to his concubines on the spot, and asked the queen and Nalan Lan'er to choose first.

Nalan Lan'er originally wanted the queen to choose first, but who knew that the queen repeatedly shirked, so she had to choose one of the most ordinary first.

With a faint smile on her face, the queen finally chose the most ingenious golden step.

Tonight's banquet seemed to the queen to be a complete victory, and the joy continued until the next morning.

The queen took the hairpin she got last night, and remembered that Nalan Lan'er had indeed covered up a lot of edges these days, so she asked the maid on the side: "Tell me, does this Nalan Lan'er really know how important it is?" ”

The maid was fanning her fan, and when she heard the question, she thought about it carefully and replied: "Judging from the slave maid, she is willing to ask you for peace every day of the year, and she is still a head short of you everywhere, she should be dead." ”

The queen was thoughtful, but still a little disbelieving: "She was not such a person before." ”

"Mother, you want to. What kind of place is that cold palace? Nalan Lan'er, who went in twice and stayed in it, was sure to be afraid. The maid said in the queen's ear.

The queen stretched out her hand and touched the hairpin on her head, and said with some hesitation: "Maybe what you said is a little correct, and I will go to receive the reward myself later." ”

"Slave and maid, thank the queen mother."

When Nalan Lan'er went to Fengyi Palace to ask for peace on a routine basis, she was surprised to find that the queen's face looked a little better, and she didn't let her hang outside, and she was willing to calmly invite her to sit down and drink tea.

Nalan Lan'er was overjoyed in her heart, knowing that the queen's guard in her heart had been loosened. So he took advantage of the victory to pursue his mouth: "Queen Mother, I heard that the eldest prince is smart and clever, I wonder if my sister can have the honor to see it?" ”

Over the years, the queen has protected her prince very tightly, and Leng didn't let her see it. When I heard her say this, her face was slightly gloomy.

But she struggled inwardly, but she was relieved: "Okay, Mama Rong, bring Lin'er up." ”

Ye Qilin is the name of the little prince, he is now two years old, and he can also walk. The little face looked at Nalan Lan'er with a fat white and tender face, which made her heart beat a few times in an instant.

"What a lovely boy." Nalan Lan'er happily picked up the prince, rubbed his forehead on his face, and found that the more he looked at his facial features, the more he looked like Ye Wushuang, so he liked it even more.

"I've long heard that Lin'er looks like the emperor, and now when I see it, it's really like it." Nalan Lan'er smiled.

The queen covered her mouth and smiled, pulled Lin'er over and hugged her in her arms: "It's the emperor's species, of course, you have to be like the emperor." ”

A trace of embarrassment flashed on Nalan Lan'er's face, and she didn't know what to say, but just laughed dryly.

At this point, although the queen's attitude is not very eager, it is no longer as aggressive as before. This change made the stone in Nalan Lan'er's heart fall to the ground, and she could finally start to make the next move.

Once at noon, Nalan Lan'er went to the famous Hua'an Temple in the capital with the queen to petition, and when she came back, the queen invited Nalan Lan'er to dine in Fengyi Palace.

Nalan Lan'er took advantage of her free time to take the maid to see Lin'er, but the sight of entering the door made them scream.

I saw a patterned snake crawling on Lin'er's bed, and the snake was spitting out letters and crawling like a sleeping Lin'er. The maids screamed in fright, but they were all confused.

Nalan Lan'er's face turned pale, but she still moved her steps and pounced towards the poisonous snake. She wanted to grab the snake's seven inches, but the pattern snake was extremely sensitive and had to be on her arm.

She mustered up her strength to sweep the patterned snake off the bed with a candlestick on one side, when several eunuchs rushed in when they heard the voice, and hurriedly caught the snake together.

When the queen heard the news, she hurried back, and Nalan Lan'er was dizzy and nauseous until she came in, and then fell to the ground in front of her.

The queen hurriedly checked Lin'er's condition first, and saw that her child was just asleep, so she came to see Nalan Lan'er's condition.

The patterned snake seemed to contain a high poison, and after a while, Nalan Lan'er's face turned blue and her lips were black. The queen hurriedly scolded the maid on the side: "What are you still doing, why don't you hurry up and call me the imperial doctor!" ”

"Yes, yes." The frightened little girl hurriedly responded and ran out.

The queen looked at Nalan Lan'er, who was helped up by the maid and leaned on the bed, and her heart was mixed. She has always regarded Nalan Lan'er as an opponent, even the slack in the past few days is only on the surface, but she didn't think that this is the person she was guarding against saved her son.

The queen frowned and sighed heavily: "This is evil." ”

Ye Wushuang heard that Nalan Lan'er was bitten, and hurriedly rushed to Fengyi Palace. After the doctor diagnosed her, he said that there was no major problem, although the snake was poisonous, it was not very poisonous, and it would be fine after a few days of cultivation.

Because Nalan Lan'er was unconscious, it was not convenient to take her back to her dormitory. The queen prepared a guest room for her, and sent five maids to take care of her one after the other.

Ye Wushuang held Nalan Lan'er's hands, stroked her pale cheeks with pity, and asked the queen on the side: "I heard that Lan'er was injured because she saved Lin'er?" Is there something wrong with Lin'er? ”

The queen was a little sad, Ye Wushuang came in for so long before she remembered Lin'er, can a mere woman be more important than her own children?

Thinking of the anxious look on her face when she came in without two parties, the queen's heart was like drinking coptis soup.

She lowered her eyes and said, "It's not a big deal, it's good that my sister rescued her in time, otherwise ......"

"It's okay, why is the movement in the kitchen so slow, and the medicine hasn't been served yet!" Ye Wushuang interrupted her and said with an angry face.

The queen glanced at the maid on the side, and said coldly: "The emperor has said so, why don't you go and urge the kitchen." ”

"Yes." The maid bowed her head and withdrew.

There were only Ye Wushuang, the queen, and the unconscious Nalan Lan'er in the room. Ye Wushuang looked at Nalan Lan'er for a while, and was sure that she was indeed fine, so he said to the queen: "You always target Lan'er, what else do you have to say if this happens?" ”

A trace of embarrassment flashed on the queen's face, and she said with some embarrassment: "The emperor doesn't know that the concubine has already ...... with her sister."

Hearing that she still defended, Ye Wushuang said coldly: "Compare your heart to your heart!" ”

The queen was choked and speechless, staring at the emperor's back with a pair of stunned eyes.
