It was not the first time that Panyu had gone to the inner room with the queen, but this time, she was really quieter than ever. Quiet I don't know what to say. For the queen, she used to be in awe, once grateful, once fellowship with her heart, and even more suspicious, once jealous, and tried in vain to replace her.

The restlessness in my heart is not only because of the instigation of the Queen Mother and Concubine Chun, but also because of the emperor's attitude towards the queen. How can Panyu, who made grace fall from the clouds to the bottom, not be jealous, she already has everything, why do she still hold on to the emperor's favor and refuse to let go? Pan Yu didn't dare to ask the queen about these words, let alone the emperor. Even what she did wrong remains a mystery to this day.

All kinds of discomfort in her heart disturbed her and made it difficult for her to calm down, and the beads of sweat on her forehead exposed her impatience and impatience.

Lan Xin only glanced at her lightly, and she already felt her uncalmness, so she had to tell Suo Lan: "Take a cup of lotus heart tea, give Concubine Xian a smooth heart, and suppress the fire." ”

Slightly embarrassed, Pan Yu restrained his expression a little. "Thank you for the queen's care, the concubine just can't control her mind for a while."

"It doesn't matter." Lan Xin slowly sat down, and then said with a distant expression: "This palace only left you, there are some things I want to ask." Why are you irritable, this palace can understand a little bit in his heart. ”

Suo Lan offered lotus heart tea and retreated without delay. There was only the queen and herself in the inner room. Panyu picked up the hot tea and sniffed it gently, only the bitterness of Lian Xin'er's heart. This taste is indeed difficult to accept, but it is also a good way to reduce the fire with a clear heart.

Xiao Xiao took a sip, letting the bitterness spread from the tip of her tongue to her heart, and Panyu only showed a bitter smile: "The queen mother just asks, and the concubine must know everything." ”

"These days, Concubine Chun is taking care of Yongzhang by Brother Yu, and you are all running around in Cining Palace to fulfill your filial piety to the Queen Mother for the emperor. I think you know a lot about the Queen Mother. This palace wants to ask, do you think that the pregnancy of the pure concubine will be involved with the queen mother? Lan Xin asked clearly, also because she knew that Concubine Xian was an understanding person.

If you talk to someone who understands, if you twist and turn, it will be boring to go around and around. No matter what, Lan Xin also wanted to figure out the ins and outs of this matter as soon as possible.

Panyu touched her lips lightly, suppressed her voice and said, "Niangniang is suspicious, is it the queen mother's instruction that Concubine Chun is pregnant again?" After thinking about it for a while, Panyu couldn't help but affirm this bold conjecture: "If Niangniang's guess is good, maybe the Queen Mother still helped in it." It seems that after keeping the pure concubine, the Queen Mother is like a tiger with wings again. The concubine just couldn't understand that the queen mother was so wary of people's hearts, how could she keep the vicious pure concubine by her side? Aren't you afraid that in the future, the pure concubine will turn her face and refuse to recognize people for her own selfish desires? ”

"That's all for later." Lan Xin stroked the peony flowers on the placket, not to mention the fine stitches, and it was embroidered with the most vivid water red thread, reflecting the Shu brocade with red lace on a white background, which was bright and dazzling. "The queen mother's temperament, this palace can see it clearly, and you must see it clearly if you think about it. If you want to stop, you will stop it a long time ago, and you will not end up in the field you are now.

It's a pity that greed is not enough, and I am always afraid of losing everything I have. A lifetime can only be spent in the midst of fighting and trembling, and nothing else. ”

"What do you mean?" Pan frowned in confusion.

"In addition to Concubine Xian, maybe only you can enter Cining Palace. This is the heart of Hongu. "Removed a cloisonné bracelet from his wrist, Lan Xin reached out and handed it to Concubine Xian." The medicinal powder in this is obtained after many refinements, so that although it is not much, it has amazing medicinal effects. This palace is now transferred to you, and you take it into Cining Palace, which naturally has its use. ”

"Niangniang wants her concubine to poison the queen mother, this is ......" Panyu couldn't help but tremble, and her heart was naturally reluctant. If the Queen Mother is in vain...... I'm afraid that the emperor will be suspicious of his concubines. After all, Niangniang, you also said that those who can enter and exit Cining Palace, except for pure concubines, are only concubines. ”

"It's not poison." Seeing her panicked, Lan Xin sighed softly before continuing: "This palace has not changed its original intention, and still hopes that the Queen Mother is still the current Queen Mother." But if she is just a crazy old woman, then it doesn't matter if she is the queen mother or not. If Concubine Chun breaks off this back road, she is equivalent to a death row prisoner with a dragonborn. In this way, the harem is really peaceful. ”

In the past, it was Ying Gege, and later Yongzhang was poisoned, and in order to make the harem harmonious, the queen handed over the tricky things one by one to herself. Yes, this may be based on the queen's trust in herself. But the queen never asked her heart whether she was willing to bear this trust.

"You don't need to worry about the future, if the matter is revealed, this palace will naturally do things by yourself." Lan Xin saw that she was reluctant to take the bracelet, and said, "Originally, this matter could not be handed over to you to do, after all, there should be many people in Cining Palace." However, the palace guesses that the reason why the queen mother is willing to let you stay in the palace must be because she has the intention to support you to be favored and become a favorite concubine who can compete with the palace. ”

"The concubine didn't think about it...... "Panyu really didn't want to replace the queen, or become an enemy of the queen because of the suspicion in her heart, she just didn't want to do these things anymore, and she didn't want to go against her will anymore. Of course, it is best to be able to save the emperor's heart, if not, she also wants to figure out, there will be such a big change before and after the emperor.

If you can know the truest reason, you will have no regrets when you die. Panyu doesn't want to play such a confusing game with the person she loves the most. She would rather know what is going on, even if it is a dead word, she can be at ease.

"Don't be in a hurry to explain first, this palace dares to use you, so it naturally believes you." Lan Xin was touched by emotion, and smiled faintly: "Since entering the palace, your grace has been worse day by day. This palace knows that you have pain in your heart, and you still can't tell the pain. This palace also understands that you treat the emperor with sincerity. Since this is the case, it is better to obey the Queen Mother, and on the surface obey her orders, but in fact, take the opportunity to ...... If you can use the hand of the Queen Mother to regain the emperor's favor, it will be a good thing for you. ”

Panyu didn't expect the queen to say this, but she couldn't tolerate her refusal. Is it really good if that's just it? With the help of the Queen Mother's hand, he became the person the emperor cared about, so once the Queen Mother fell, will his favor continue, or will he fall with the Queen Mother? Who can guarantee that?

"Xu is destined!" The miserable brilliance in Pan Yu's eyes was not as bright as before, but she was faintly unwilling, and she was still catharsis in this misery. The heart seems to have been stabbed and leaked, leaking the former gentleness and love with him. "The concubines don't dare to think about it, let alone hope for it."

"It's not a pure concubine or you, then the palace is willing to be you." Lan Xin said the most sincere truth. "If you can choose, this palace doesn't want you to get involved in the dispute between this palace and the queen mother, but you insist on doing so. If you can choose, the person who this palace hopes to give birth to Lin'er is you, so that your position in the palace will be more noble.

You are from the Ulanala clan, and you are prominent in pure concubines and even noble concubines. Hongu naturally wants you to go higher and farther. What's more, if you treat the emperor sincerely, how can this palace not see it? These days, you have done your best to do a lot of things for this palace, to say a word of gratitude, if there are only two concubines, this palace naturally hopes that it is Hui Guifei and you.

And Concubine Chun, no matter how many elder brothers she can give birth to, this palace doesn't want her to have such a day. If you have the opportunity, why not go for it. If you were said to have been for this palace in the past, then this palace hopes that today you can be yourself. ”

These words made Panyu speechless. She didn't know if the queen was planning for her because of guilt in her heart, or if the queen had been planning for her all along. Finally, she still took the cloisonné bracelet, but it was like a burden of thousands of pounds on her body, and she couldn't hold it up.

"Your own business, it's up to you." Lan Xin just hopes that both she and Concubine Jia can go further. After all, in the harem, there are only these two people who can treat themselves sincerely. "I've talked to you for a while, and the time is almost the same when this palace looks. You go back to the palace to rest by yourself, and the palace will go to Cining Palace on your behalf to serve the Queen Mother. ”

"Niangniang......" Panyu didn't know why the queen wanted to see the queen mother at this time, but she knew that Cining Palace seemed to be calm, but in fact it was turbulent: "In fact, the queen mother can't get out of Cining Palace for half a step, why do you want to go." ”

"You stayed in Cining Palace to serve the sick in order to take care of the emperor's face, and this palace went to Cining Palace to visit the queen mother in order to take care of the royal family's face. The Queen Mother is the Queen Mother after all, no matter how much we despise it in our hearts, she is still the most noble woman in the Qing Dynasty. There are some things on the emotional side, and this palace has to take care of them. ”

"In that case, the concubine will retire." Pan Yu was slightly blessed, holding the bracelet, and finally retreated.

When Lan Xin saw her leaving, she called Suo Lan: "Tell Duo Lan that there is no need to disturb Concubine Xian's mind these days." After all, Concubine Xian and Bengong are the same kind of people who admit death. She's just not reconciled. ”

"The slave understands." Suo Lan saw that the queen's face was not so gloomy, so she asked in a low voice: "Does Niangniang think that Concubine Xian Niangniang will eventually become a pure concubine?" ”

With a wide smile, Lan Xin shook his head: "If she can do it, she doesn't have to wait until her grace is gone!" Concubine Xian will not become a pure concubine, and this palace believes that her heart has never changed. ”
