Fuqing saw that the emperor and queen were so affectionate, and quietly retreated to the distance to listen to the dispatch, quiet as if they were mud puppets standing under the porch, looking at their noses and noses.

In the hall, Tuoba Chen sighed faintly, and gently scraped the tip of Lan Ruo's small and delicate nose a little helplessly: "You, no matter when, I have something to worry about, you always have a way to help me." ”

There was a hint of nostalgia in her tone, Lan Ruomei looked at Tuoba Chen with a smile in her eyes, there was a strong friendship in her eyes, she leaned close to Tuoba Chen's ear and said softly: "Your Majesty, you are the husband of the concubine, the heaven of the concubine, as long as the concubine can help you, you let the concubine do whatever the concubine is willing to——"

The tone was mixed with coquettishness, Tuoba Chen's eyes were dark, and Lan Ruo's warm breathing was in his ears, itching from top to bottom, and his body trembled. As soon as he grasped Lan Ruo's soft and boneless hand, he pulled him closer a little.

Lan Ruo was unguarded, and fell into Tuoba Chen's arms, the clothes and belts did not know when they were scattered, Tuoba Chen lowered his eyes, saw a touch of white, and became short of breath.

He smiled a little ill-willedly, his fingers lightly and slowly twisted across Lan Ruo's smooth jaw, and when he got in, he smelled a faint fragrance, Lan Ruo was amused by Tuoba Chen's movements, she grabbed Tuoba Chen's eyes, and pasted her whole person.

Tuoba Chen seemed to be flattered by Lan Ruo's coquettish gesture, and got up and walked towards the apse of the Heart Cultivation Hall with Lan Ruo in his arms.

The sound of the rain smashing on the vermilion tiles made a little ripple, but it reduced the boredom of summer a little, and made people feel a little more comfortable.

Qiao'er and the little eunuch outside the hall obviously knew what was happening in the hall, and they couldn't help but be a little red-faced, Qiao'er only felt that there seemed to be a deer in her chest crashing around, and she panicked slightly. She pinched her palm slightly, and Qiao'er felt that the heat gradually subsided.

She stood under the eaves, the cool rain splashed on her hands, and a longing suddenly rose in her heart, she raised her eyes to look at the rain curtain in front of her, and the water vapor could not see the road ahead, just like her own days in this palace, boring and boundless. The average palace maid will be released from the palace when she is twenty-four or five years old, but she was originally a maid in the queen's house, and even if she was released, she returned to the prime minister's mansion. Thinking of the Prime Minister's Mansion, she thought of that person, and couldn't help but shudder, she looked at the stamens trembling slightly in the drizzle, and couldn't help sighing, if she could be a master in this palace-

She seemed to be frightened by her bold idea, so she quickly lowered her eyes again, and retreated to the bottom of the corridor, where the little eunuch leaned towards Qiao'er's side and said softly: "Miss Qiao'er is really blessed to follow a favored master like the queen mother." ”

Qiao'er has always been arrogant, and when she saw that this little eunuch talked about some uninteresting topics, she inevitably didn't want to pay attention to it, she snorted coldly from her nose and said: "The queen mother is the master of the harem, where do you care about such a thing as being favored or not?" ”

The little eunuch didn't care about her cold ridicule, the smile on his face didn't diminish at all, he seemed to be locked in a cage starling, and he was released coldly, and he chattered endlessly.

"That's right, maybe only the queen mother in this harem doesn't care about this, Concubine Xu Shu, who is pregnant with a dragon heir, can't ignore it completely, the green pothos next to her is also a high-spirited person on weekdays, and now that something has happened to Lord Xu, I see how long she can be arrogant."

Qiao'er heard that there seemed to be a pleasure in his words that could not be concealed, and knew that the green pothos must have given him a lot of hardships before, so she accosted him and asked, "Oh? What happened to Pothos Girl? ”

The little eunuch looked around, there was no one around, and Fuqing was serving in the palace again, so he whispered: "Actually, a few days ago, Concubine Xu Shuniang came to His Majesty with the pothos girl, but at that time, His Majesty happened to go out of the palace to the mansion of the newly promoted Lord Zhao to discuss things, and I didn't see him." Originally, it was an ordinary thing, but when the slave saw that Concubine Xu seemed to know that His Majesty was not there, he was a little anxious and wanted to wait for His Majesty to come back. I stood in the rain with my umbrella and waited for a long time before leaving. ”

Qiao'er couldn't help but feel a little impatient when she saw him muttering so many words, but she also heard the clue from his words, did Concubine Xu Shufei know about this matter before, but she wanted to come to His Majesty in advance to intercede, but she missed it by mistake?

The huge question seemed to be a dark cloud hanging over her head, and she secretly wrote it down in her heart, planning to wait until Lan Ruo came out to tell her.

The rain gradually decreased, and on the wide bright yellow dragon bed in the hall, Lan Ruo scattered her head, barely covering the spring light, and she pulled the thin blanket over her body a little shyly.

Tuoba Chen chuckled, a pair of big hands seemed to be flexible fish swimming around, which provoked Lan Ruo to laugh for a while, Tuoba Chen got up refreshed, Lan Ruo also put on his clothes, and then said to Fuqing outside: "Fuqing, call Qiao'er in." ”

Fuqing answered loudly, and after a moment of effort, he heard the sound of small footsteps approaching, it was Qiao'er. She opened the layers of bead curtains, only to reflect the scene in the hall, the man was long and jade, shirtless, and the strong lines were dripping with sweat stains at this time.

The woman is charming to the bones, and she is only draped in a thin red silk satin middle coat, tied with silk around her waist, and lined with ice muscles and jade bones, and her posture is exquisite.

Qiao'er lowered her eyes after just one look, she had seen such a scene many times, but she didn't know if it was because the air in the Heart Cultivation Hall was not smooth, Qiao'er only felt stuffy in her chest.

Forcibly suppressed the discomfort in her heart, after Qiao'er served the emperor and queen to dress, she helped Lan Ruo to comb the hair that had been scattered again, and when she wanted to put hairpins on her hair, she only felt that her fingertips were hot, and Tuoba Chen appeared behind her, and his tall figure completely enveloped her small figure.

Tuoba Chen took the red gold iris phoenix hairpin from Qiao'er's hand, and his thin lips lightly opened: "I came to give the queen hairpin." Go down. ”

Qiao'er hurriedly retracted her hand and handed over the things in her hand, then leaned over and retreated, her steps were a little flustered when she left, but neither Lan Ruo nor Tuoba Chen noticed the abnormality of this little palace maid.

Tuoba Chen found a suitable position, gently inserted the phoenix hairpin into the bun, looked at it carefully, and then nodded with satisfaction, he sat down next to Lan Ruo, Lan Ruo looked at the pair of beautiful people in the bronze mirror, and said softly: "Your Majesty, we haven't been like this for a long time." ”

Tuoba Chen sighed: "Now is an eventful autumn, one thing is not settled, one thing is up again, I know that I owe you, wait a few months, the matter will be resolved, it will be fine." ”

Lan Ruo sighed, then put his hand on Tuoba Chen's hand again, and said: "Your Majesty don't worry about the matter in Shuzhong, Lord Xu is honest and honest, and his ability is outstanding, and he will definitely handle the matter properly." ”

Hearing Lan Ruo say this, the doubts in Tuoba Chen's heart were also dispelled, and he said with some annoyance, "This morning, Shuzhong reported urgently, many embankments have burst, flooding a lot of farms and fields, and the refugees have already made trouble in the capital at this time. ”

"What? What about Lord Xu? Lan Ruo covered her lips and said softly.

"The specific matter can only be transferred back to be carefully investigated, if I find out that he did not distribute the imperial court's disaster relief silver, I will cut off his dog's head." Tuoba Chen was obviously already angry, he had forgotten that there was still a Concubine Xu Shu in this palace, and Concubine Xu Shu's womb still had an heir.

"Your Majesty is angry, but Your Majesty has transferred Xu Shao back, so what should the people in Shu do?" Lan Ruodao.

"I'm thinking about it, but I don't have a suitable candidate for a while." Tuoba Chen was obviously also worried about this matter, Lan Ruo's eyes turned slightly, and he said with a smile: "The concubine thinks that there should be someone who is the most suitable, I wonder if Your Majesty is interested in hearing about it?" ”

Tuoba Chen came a little bit, oh, and waited for Lan Ruo's answer.

"His Royal Highness King Xian—" Lan Ruo's scarlet cherry lips collided up and down, and she spat out a person.

"Tuoba Yue! That's right, how did I forget him, if you say that the most appeaseable thing is the royal family, he has nothing to do in Beijing, and it is just appropriate for him to do this. Tuoba Chen's heart was full of joy, he held Lan Ruo's palm tightly, and said with a smile: "Ruo'er is really a person who wakes up from a dream with a word, or do you have a way." ”

Lan Ruo snuggled softly into Tuoba Yue's arms and said, "It is the blessing of the concubine to be able to share the worries of His Majesty, and the concubine is satisfied." ”

Suddenly, Tuoba Chen said again: "However, he was injured by a falling boulder in the ancient tomb a few days ago, and he only went to the court today, so I am afraid it is not appropriate to send him to Shuzhong at this time." ”

This was something Lan Ruo didn't expect, she pursed her lips tightly, and said for a while: "Your Majesty, you also said that it is an eventful time, Your Majesty only made a will, and His Royal Highness King Xian will definitely come down." ”

Lan Ruo had been in the Heart Cultivation Hall for half a day, and only left after lunch, Qiao'er followed behind Lan Ruo, looking a little dazed, and didn't feel Lan Ruo stop, and bumped into it, Lan Ruo frowned, turned around and reprimanded: "Qiao'er, what are you thinking?" Do things frizzy. ”

Qiao'er's heart trembled, and she quickly knelt down, kowtowed to Lan Ruo and said, "The slave was distracted for a while, and collided with Niangniang, please punish Niangniang!" ”

However, at this time, Lan Ruo seemed to be in a very good mood, and waved his hand indifferently and said: "That's it, get up, this big court, don't let others think that this palace is harsh on you, tell me what happened?" ”

Qiao'er's thoughts turned around a thousand times, but she just arrived: "The slave maid is just thinking about what the little eunuch under Gonggong Fu said today." ”

Lan Ruo faintly had a slight impression of the person Qiao'er mentioned, so he asked, "What did you say?" ”

Qiao'er relayed all the words that the little eunuch said to herself to Lan Ruo. Lan Ruo pondered in her heart for a moment, and then said, "This palace remembers that you said before that He Xi went to see Concubine Xu Shu in the rain a few days ago? ”

Qiao'er nodded, this matter was said by the eyeliner arranged by herself in the Ice Spring Palace, and there must be nothing wrong.

She bowed her head and whispered, "And I heard that not long after she left, the pothos beside Concubine Xu Shu left the palace." ”
