That night, the emperor summoned the northern concubine to sleep. On the second day, the envoy of the Northern Desert Kingdom took his leave and returned home.

The emperor favored Concubine Bei and specially instructed Concubine Bei to go to the walls of the imperial city to send her off. Concubine Bei declined the emperor's kindness.

Concubine Bei said, "Send you a thousand miles, and you must say goodbye in the end." Now she is the concubine of the Tanglin Kingdom, and her mother country, the Northern Desert Country, is thousands of miles away, and she will not be able to see her old friends again in the future. In this case, it is better not to send it now. ”

The emperor loved Concubine Bei very much, because he felt sorry for Concubine Bei's suffering of missing her mother country, and deliberately decorated the palace where Concubine Bei lived in the style of the Northern Desert Kingdom.

With such an honor, Concubine Xian and Concubine Nan, who are both princesses of other countries, are not eligible to enjoy it.

And this concubine Bei is also arrogant. Relying on the emperor's favor, arrogant and domineering, the concubines in the palace, she offended half of them.

Everyone in the palace can't get used to Concubine Bei, but because the emperor loves Concubine Bei, he can't say anything, so he can only look forward to the day when Concubine Bei falls out of favor and everyone shouts and beats her like a rat crossing the street.

And the character of Concubine Nan is just the opposite of Concubine Bei, Concubine Nan is low-key and calm, lives in a simple place, does not associate with people, does not make enemies with others, and looks like an unknown style.

If she weren't the princess of Nanjiang Country, the people in the palace would have forgotten the existence of such a person as Concubine Nan.

In the blink of an eye, the first snow has fallen in the Tanglin Kingdom.

This snow in the north is rare to see in the south. It is difficult to see snowy weather in the Western Chu Kingdom.

So this snow, Chu Shuyao became excited.

Now that the Western Chu Kingdom is quite stable, her goal has been achieved. In the palace of the Tanglin Kingdom, she tried to keep a low profile and keep herself in obscurity.

It's just that life in the palace is really boring. She had the idea of escaping the palace.

Now that it is snowing, the quiet nobles who look sad every day are happy.

For Jing Guiren's mood has improved, Mama Kong and Yuzhuo, Yurun is still very happy.

Yuzhuo asked curiously, "Do you like snow days very much?" ”

Jing Guiren just admired the snow outside and exclaimed, "Look how big this snow is!" Goose feather snow, goose feather snow, snowflakes are really like goose feathers! ”

"What is this? If the weather is colder, the snow will fall for a day and a night, and then the snow on the ground will be thick enough to bury people's calves, and then you can build a snowman. ”

"Build a snowman?"

"Jade, do you know how to build a snowman?" Jing Guiren asked with a look of surprise and surprise.

"Of course, what's so hard about building a snowman? A three-year-old kid would? ”

When Yuzhuo said this, he suddenly remembered something and asked, "Doesn't the noble man know how to build a snowman?" ”

Jing Guiren was silent for a moment and said with a smile, "I really can't?" I was afraid of the cold since I was a child, and my mother didn't let me play in the snow. ”

"Ah, how much fun have you missed, that nobleman?"

Mama Kong quietly listened to Jing Guiren and Yuzhuo talking, but she frowned suspiciously.

After hearing that Jing Guiren was afraid of cold since he was a child, Yurun hurriedly poured a soup woman into Jing Guiren.

"Noble people, hurry up and warm your hands! Don't stand outside for too long, it's snowing, it's too cold outside. ”

Jing Guiren took the soup woman and held it in his hand, but he was reluctant to return to the palace.

It's true that she's afraid of the cold, after all, did she grow up in the south? When she came to the north at first, the winter in the north really made her sad.

And in the main hall of Biluo Palace, the pregnant concubine didn't dare to come out to see the snow, so she also let people open the window.

Even if he looked at the snow through the window, after watching it for a while, he asked the palace maid to persuade him to go back.

"Niangniang, it's snowing outside, and the cold is too heavy by this window, Niangniang should hurry back to the brazier to warm up! It's not good if you get cold, after all, Niangniang is still pregnant? If it freezes, it's not good for the prince in the womb. The palace maid Feng'er persuaded bitterly.

Concubine Xian only listened to the last sentence, if it is frozen, it is not good for the child.

Now she is no longer alone, as a mother, she has to be responsible for the child in her womb, she can't be willful, she can't just care about her own happiness.

Concubine Xian hurriedly retreated to the brazier and instructed the palace maid, "Don't close the window first, just watch from a distance in the palace." ”

In this regard, Feng'er just covered her mouth and snickered, and did not mean to dissuade Concubine Xian anymore.

The palace maids Rong'er and Xiu'er came over with snacks, and Xiu'er said with a smile, "When Niangniang was in Xichu, it should be rare to see snow, right?" ”

"Looking at the weather now, this snow is still falling, at least tonight, it won't stop. When I look at it again tomorrow morning, the yard will definitely be white. When the time comes, the snow will walk with a click, one big footprint at a time. ”

Rong'er also echoed, "Yes, you can build a snowman then." ”

Concubine Xian Niangniang had a strong interest in this topic, and asked Rong'er and Xiu'er to talk about it carefully.

All of a sudden, in the palace of Concubine Xian, there was laughter.

The emperor was there, and Mr. Yin asked the emperor where to go for dinner today.

Now that it is snowing, the emperor will naturally not toss back and forth. Where you have dinner, you have to stay there.

The emperor buried his head in the twists and turns, and completely ignored Mr. Yin. Manager Yin waited for a while, and then asked cautiously, "The emperor is still going to Concubine Bei Niangniang today?" ”

It's no wonder that Manager Yin asked like this, during this time, the emperor went most often to the northern concubine.

The emperor still didn't answer Mr. Yin, he stood up and walked out, and Mr. Yin hurriedly followed.

"It's snowing?" The emperor seemed to be asking, but he was talking to himself.

"I'm going to see Concubine Xian! There are few snowy days in the Western Chu Kingdom, I don't know if Concubine Xian is suitable for this weather? ”

"Yes." Mr. Yin hurriedly responded.

He is a minion, so naturally the emperor will go wherever he says.

When the emperor came to Biluo Palace, the whole palace was quiet.

Concubine Xian and Jing Guiren are afraid of the cold, so naturally they will not come out in heavy snow.

The emperor went straight to the main hall of Concubine Xian, who was sewing a small dress next to the brazier.

The pile of clothes and fabrics in the basket was pink except for the red ones.

Because the emperor did not let people pass it on, Concubine Xian did not know about the arrival of the emperor.

"Why are they all pink and red little clothes?"

The emperor suddenly spoke in Concubine Xian's ear, which startled Concubine Xian.

In addition to being frightened, Concubine Xian was surprised, "Your Majesty, why are you here, Your Majesty?" ”

"It's snowing, and I think that there are few snowy days in the Western Chu Kingdom. Come and see if you're comfortable with the weather. ”

The emperor said, looking at Concubine Xian's already bulging belly unabashedly.

Concubine Xian's face was full of maternal love, and she gently stroked her belly.

"Thank you for the emperor's concern, the concubines are very good, and the children are also very good. never makes trouble with concubines, I think she should be a quiet and well-behaved little princess. ”

"Little princess? How did Concubine Xian know that she was a princess? ”

"Whether it's a princess or a prince, concubines like it. But the concubine hopes to be a princess who can accompany the concubine and be the emperor's pistachio. ”

Concubine Xian said this, and smiled happily and contentedly. A sweet smile that can make any man emotional.

The beauty of the virtuous concubine is not as flamboyant as the northern concubine, and there is a kind of tranquility of quiet years.

The emperor was very satisfied with Concubine Xian's performance, and he was also moved by compassion.

immediately instructed Chief Yin, "You personally go to the Internal Affairs Office, Concubine Xian is afraid of the cold, charcoal fire and fur clothes must be used here by Concubine Xian." ”

Mr. Yin responded again and again. Concubine Xian did not shirk and thanked the emperor.

Talking to the emperor, Concubine Xian mentioned Concubine Nan, "Concubine Nan is from the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom, which is hotter than the Western Chu Kingdom, and it suddenly snows, presumably Concubine Nan is also very difficult to endure." If the emperor is free, why don't you go and see Concubine Nan? ”

The emperor raised his eyebrows, "You have never gone out, Concubine Nan has never gone out, the two of you have nothing to do with each other, why are you speaking for Concubine Nan today?" ”

"Concubine Nan is a low-key and calm character, she doesn't fight, she doesn't rob, she doesn't ask about mundane things, although she avoids disputes, but in the palace, she has to endure hardships. The emperor should also know that the servants in the palace have always seen people dish. ”

After Concubine Xian finished speaking, she found that the emperor was staring at her suspiciously.

Concubine Xian knew that she had talked too much, but it was irreparable, and it was not a matter of principle. Concubine Xian expected that the emperor would not blame. So he continued to say boldly, "The concubine pities Concubine Nan, but she just pities herself." ”

"It is also a foreign princess who came all the way to Tanglin Kingdom, and her concubine is pregnant, so her situation is even better. And Concubine Nan does not have the emperor's favor, so she must be even more lonely than the concubine. ”

The emperor stared at Concubine Xian for a long time before he said, "Concubine Xian, you are very good." ”

Concubine Xian was stunned for a moment, "What did you say, Your Majesty?" ”

"I'm saying, Concubine Xian, you are a rare kind-hearted person."

Concubine Xian blushed instantly, "The emperor should not make fun of his concubines." ”

Because of Concubine Xian's words, after the emperor accompanied Concubine Xian Niangniang to dinner, he braved the snow to go to Concubine Nan.

Concubine Nan is quiet, and she belongs to the kind of dialing and turning. If it doesn't sound good, it's an elm pimple, and you don't know how to please the emperor.

But the emperor felt that Concubine Nan was wise and foolish. She has no intention of competing for favor, but in order to be able to live well in the palace.

Concubine Nan's mind is very exquisite, not at all like the usual appearance, just looking at the layout in Concubine Nan's palace, you can guess a thing or two.

Presumably, when she was in the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom, Concubine Nan should have been a cheerful and lively little girl, right?

It's just that I'm trapped by this high wall. It's like a bird that has been locked in a cage, given up struggling, and listless.

The bird, which has lost its vitality, has no intention of taking care of its feathers, and the whole bird becomes a mess, which is not at all pleasant.

The same goes for Concubine Nan.

The emperor came with interest every time, and finally felt disappointed, and left with a sigh.

This time, when the emperor came up, Concubine Nan was still the same.

It's not humble or arrogant, but I just don't care much.

The emperor felt bored, and there were more women who wanted to sleep, so why should he be embarrassed by a woman who was not motivated?

After a hurried perfunctory speech, the emperor got up in the middle of the night, braved the snow and left Concubine Nan's palace and returned to the imperial study.

This matter has gone far and wide. On the second day, it spread throughout the palace. Suddenly, Concubine Nan became a member of the palace and talked about it before going to bed after dinner.

How boring was Concubine Nan, and how much the emperor hated it, so that the emperor left in the middle of the night in the snow?

The emperor would rather sleep alone in the imperial study than in Concubine Nan. It seems that Concubine Nan was rejected by the emperor.

Everyone in the palace thought so, so the servants in the palace didn't care about Concubine Nan.

The palace maid brought by Concubine Nan from Nanjiang Province complained to Concubine Nan, "Niangniang, this imperial dining room is too much, except for the two meat dishes that the queen mother dialed over, the imperial dining room actually only prepared two vegetarian dishes to send Niangniang." Niangniang must tell the emperor about this, so that the emperor can punish those dog slaves well. ”

"Well, I can't finish these dishes. You don't have much to do. ”

Concubine Nan warned her maid that the maid did not dare to disobey, so she could only reluctantly respond.

Concubine Nan thought to herself, is it good for the emperor to forget about her? As long as she doesn't have the emperor's favor, she can stay away from the strife in the harem.

Since she left the Southern Xinjiang Country, her heart has been dead, hasn't it? Now being a concubine in Tanglin is the last reward for the mother country.
