When Wang Xinyu heard this, he didn't speak for a long time, and the look on his face was indescribably weird. Those deep eyes looked at her deeply.

After a long time, she chuckled, and the laughter was full of sarcasm: "Xu Lanfang, do you think that if the prince sends Li Siqin away, you will be able to bully and get carried away?" Don't be too happy, I heard that the queen has begun to choose a concubine for the crown prince, in the future, there will be a hundred flowers in this East Palace, I will see how long you can be favored! ”

I'll wait to see how miserable you look after you fall out of favor!

Lan Fang smiled faintly when she heard this, looked at her and said as if she didn't care: "The crown prince has a noble status, and it is also appropriate to have more sisters around him, but it is better for the princess to think more about herself, I heard that in the past few months, the prince does not seem to have set foot in the princess's house for half a step......"

"Slut!" Wang Xinyu suddenly yelled in annoyance, and was about to wave his hand to fan Lan Fang, but was instantly blocked by Ling'er and Lianxiang.

She took a deep breath, slowly lowered her hand, and after a while, she gritted her teeth and squinted her eyes and took two steps back, raised her chin slightly, and said arrogantly: "Even if I am not favored, I am also the crown princess, and the honor of my body, you are a concubine, in this life, you can't imagine it!" ”

After she finished speaking, she turned around and left, with a proud and noble posture, like a swaggering peacock.

Lan Fang looked at her back and sighed, sat in the pavilion, and said, "The queen is going to choose a side concubine for the crown prince, this East Palace, I'm afraid it won't be long before it will be lively!" ”

Ling'er snorted coldly when she heard this, and said, "What if there are many people who come in, as long as it is Mrs. you who is favored, everything else is just decorations, nothing to care about." ”

Lian Xiang didn't think so, but she didn't dare to say what she thought, because her wife was about to give birth, and she couldn't think about it at this time.

In fact, she felt that since the queen wanted to choose a side concubine for the prince, she would not watch those women become decorations after entering the East Palace. After all, the prince does not have many heirs now, and if the baby in the lady's belly is a male fetus, it is okay, even if the prince still favors the lady, presumably the queen will not say anything.

However, if the lady's birth is a girl, then the queen's mother will inevitably put pressure on the prince to prolong his heirs.

After all, now the crown prince shoulders the heavy responsibility of the prince of this country, but he only has one son, which is too little.

After sitting in the pavilion for a while, Lan Fang wanted to get up and leave, Yun Lei walked from afar, walking a long way, very leisurely, since Duan Wang Ye ascended the throne, their Tian brothers are more and more effective in the court, as the deputy commander of the Praetorian Guard, it is common for him to walk in the palace, and he is also very casual when he sees Lan Fang.

But it's been very busy everywhere lately, and he comes relatively rarely, and today it's because he's going back because of the shift change, and he just happened to pass by here and saw her in the pavilion, so he came to sit down.

"Second brother, come and sit.

Lan Fang had a big belly and didn't get up anymore, and beckoned to him with a smile.

Yun Lei is dressed in the service of the Praetorian Guard. looks handsome and tough, the previous scholarly temperament, unconsciously dissipated into invisibility.

"Lan Fang, you're about to give birth, don't come to such a far place to hang around, it's safer to choose a closer place." Yun Lei sat down, picked up a cup of tea poured by Lianxiang for him, and then looked at her and asked, "How is it lately, is it hard to conceive this?" ”

Lan Fang shook her head and said, "It's not hard, it's not the first time, it's Yu'er, last time you said that her legs and feet were swollen, but now it's better?" ”

Yun Lei shook his head and said, "It's still like that, but she's almost about to give birth, I think she can relax a little bit after the child is born!" ”

Bai Yu'er's bosom is very powerful, she can't eat and sleep well, and in this later stage, she is actually swollen all over, if it weren't for the doctor who saw it and said that it was no big deal, otherwise the Tian family would like to let her take some oxytocic medicine to give birth to the child prematurely for a few days.

Yun Lei looked around, there were no idle people waiting, so he whispered: "The prince has been very busy recently, I guess I don't have time to see you, you take care of yourself." Recently, the emperor handed over some of the snobbery left by the emperor in the court to the crown prince to clean up, and he was busy drinking almost no time, don't be too disappointed. When he's busy for a while, he'll be able to relax! ”

Lan Fang nodded, and also whispered: "I heard that the emperor was imprisoned in a secret place in the palace, and many people were sent to guard it, is the emperor too careful, the first emperor has a stroke and can't move, do you still need to be so careful?" ”

Yun Lei looked at her and shook his head when he heard this, and said: "You don't understand, no matter who is sitting in that position now, it will not give the former emperor the slightest chance to recover, even if he is terminally ill, he can't underestimate a person who used to be an emperor!" Who knows where he left his back! Moreover, the emperor still cares about the thoughts of those ministers, otherwise, the emperor would have been ...... long ago."

Lan Fang nodded, she didn't understand the affairs of the court, but she also knew that the emperor's suspicion was always greater than that of ordinary people, and it was natural to be cautious. But she suddenly remembered what Li Ye had said before, and couldn't help asking: "I heard that the emperor had dead soldiers in his hands, what about those people?" ”

I remember that when I was in Fengliang Mountain, Li Yeshou's secret arrow was the dead man's, and now that the new emperor has succeeded to the throne, what will happen to the previous dead soldiers?

Yun Lei smiled faintly when he heard this, and said: "That is not a big problem, those dead soldiers are not the first emperor's, they are the royal dead soldiers left by the royal family from the time of Taizu, they do not belong to any emperor, they only obey the emperor's orders, and now that the new emperor has succeeded to the throne, they will obey the orders of the new emperor, and wait for the crown prince to succeed to the throne in the future." , naturally will obey the orders of the crown prince. Such a system can make the dead loyal to the imperial power and prosper for a long time. ”

Lan Fang couldn't believe that she could still do this......

Yun Lei looked at her and sighed, remembering that he saw Wang Xinyu leave when he first came over, so he said: "The princess's maiden family is now in a transcendent position in the court, you go to the East Palace, or try not to have a hard time with her, although she is now just a decoration in the prince's heart, but the dog jumps the wall in a hurry, and the rabbit bites when she is in a hurry, not to mention that she is a femme fatale, you have to be more careful!" The midwife and girl during childbirth must be carefully screened and not careless! ”

"Don't worry, everything is ready, when I give birth, the queen mother will be in charge herself, and she will not have the slightest chance to interfere!"

Yun Lei was relieved when he heard this, and said: "Now the status of the Wang family is rising, but Wang Shangshu, that old man, is very shrewd, and he actually took his illness to stay at home, for fear that he would be too jealous and secretly harm him in the limelight." It is estimated that on Wang Xinyu's side, her father also explained to her. Now there are just the two of you in the East Palace, and it is still clean, but the matter of choosing a concubine for the prince has been put on the agenda of the court, I am afraid that it will not be long before the newcomer will enter the East Palace. ”

"Second brother, don't worry, I know everything!"

The cool breeze was blowing, the sun had set, and under the golden afterglow, Yun Lei's eyes were a little reluctant when he looked at her, and said: "My father wanted to disarm and return to the field a while ago, but the emperor didn't allow it, saying that he was indispensable in the northwest region, and there was no candidate to take over, and the emperor wanted my father to train a suitable successor before he could step down, and the prince recommended me to the emperor." ”

Lan Fang frowned when she heard this, and said, "You mean, it won't be long before you go to the northwest?" ”

Yun Lei nodded and said: "Yes, because of my understanding of the northwest, the emperor's will came down at that time, but I asked the emperor for grace, and after Yu'er was born, when I went to the northwest, the emperor agreed." ”

"How often do you come back?"

The northwest is so far away from the capital, it is not easy to go back and forth, I am afraid that it will not come back so casually......

"I'm not sure, there's nothing to do anyway, I'm afraid I won't come back......"

Yun Lei said, looking at her gradually reddening eyes, and comforting her with a bitter smile: "Don't cry, it's not that we can't meet again, I will write back." ”

Lan Fang wiped her tears, raised her eyes to look at him and said with a little choked up: "You have to write back often, at least once a month, and take good care of Yu'er." ”

"Got it, my person, you should rest assured."

Speaking of him, he sighed and said: "In the future, when I leave, you can find the eldest brother if you have anything, he still stays in the palace to manage the Praetorian Guard, and with him, I am more or less at ease." Also, now that the crown princess has no concubine, you have to be careful with her, remember to be optimistic about Cheng'an, you know? ”

Lan Fang shed tears and nodded at the same time, and said, "Cheng'an has the queen mother to take care of, and she won't dare to move if she wants to, but I'll be careful, don't worry!" ”

Yun Lei watched her cry, his heart was not good, he sighed and looked at the sunset on the horizon, and said, "Okay, it's not early, I'll send you back!" ”

Lan Fang got up, shook her head, and said, "Forget it, you hurry back and take care of Yu'er, if you stay in the palace for so long, she will be worried." I have Lianxiang and Ling'er with me, so I don't need you to send it. ”

Yun Lei smiled, waved his hand at her, and said, "If you don't send it, you won't send it, I don't want to see the ugly look of your crying nose!" Let's go! ”

Standing in the pavilion, reflecting the sunset, Lan Fang watched Yun Lei leave in a dashing manner, and a deep reluctance suddenly rose in her heart.

I felt as if there was an empty place in my heart, and I instantly felt a little cold in my body, as if I was ...... There is a lot less sense of security, less a harbor to rely on......

She endured the sourness in her heart, breathed a long sigh of relief, and looked at the big palace, and suddenly felt a little sad.

"Madame, let's go!"

"Well, let's go back."

Back at the Green Water Building, as soon as Lan Fang entered the door, she found that Li Ye was actually there, but before she had time to be surprised, she saw him frowning and asking, "Why are your eyes red?" Ever cried? ”
