At the beginning of May, the Forbidden City has been completely renewed, and it is no longer a depression full of depression and everything is quiet in winter. On the contrary, what you can see early is already a hundred flowers and a happy spring scene.

The elder brother came with good news first, that is, the third elder brother Yongzhang's recovery from pox. And the pure concubine can also retire after success, and just wait for the emperor's decree to move back to Zhongcui Palace to live. It's just that this holy decree is not a splendid spring flower in spring, so I can't hold back the joy of spring, and I am vying to come out. But it is like a frozen withered yellow leaf, which makes people listen to desolation.

Hongli's holy will is to make Concubine Chun return to Cining Palace and continue to serve the Queen Mother.

Such a will, although Su Wanrong was a little surprised, did not surprise her. The emperor's holy will is not to kill but to stay, which is already extraordinarily gracious to her. But the place in Cining Palace has never been the paradise she hopes for.

"Li Yu, this palace asks to see the emperor and queen, and I bother you to go again." Su Wanrong received the holy decree and said unhurriedly: "There are important things in this palace, and you must show the emperor and queen in person." ”

After not seeing Concubine Chun for a few months, Li Yu faintly sensed that she was different. It doesn't seem to be as pretentious as before, but much calmer and quieter. When she spoke, there was no sultry boredness in her eyebrows, nor was she as pitiful as before, but she looked at him quietly, as if she longed for her to understand her thoughts.

"Huh." Li Yu replied lightly and turned around to leave.

Su Wanrong hurriedly called Fenglan: "Fenglan is going to prepare for the shoulder, and the palace will go to the Heart Cultivation Hall with Li Yu, and the emperor will definitely see the palace." ”

"The slave understands." Feng Lan nodded solemnly, and seemed to be extra sure in his heart.

And Li Yu vaguely felt something bad from Concubine Chun's attitude, but he didn't dare to say it, or even think about it. Who doesn't know, the emperor doesn't want to see the pure concubine in his heart. And during this period of time, it has always been the queen who has worked tirelessly to serve the emperor. The queen doesn't like pure concubines, which is also a well-known thing in the harem.

So Li Yu could only carefully maintain his respect for Concubine Chun's alienation, a little respect, but he didn't go to Concubine Chun. It's just to save the emperor's face.

Lan Xin saw Li Yu go and return, his face was full of sadness, and he knew that the things that the emperor explained to him were not neat. So, she smiled lightly, and without waiting for Li Yu to speak, she turned her head to the emperor and said, "It seems that the pure concubine will not be willing to do so if she doesn't see the emperor." Come to think of it, the silence of Cining Palace is not something that people with distracting thoughts can receive with peace of mind. ”

After Lan Xin's meticulous care these days, Hongli already feels much more comfortable. And these days, Hongli's understanding of Lan Xin has become more and more. In the past, she just felt generous and kind, but now, she found that she is really kind-hearted. She can tolerate many things, be dumb, and accept them sincerely, even if she has wronged herself.

And he is willing to believe that she really has no other thoughts about the matter with the prince. Even if there was a good time between them, it was just from the past. At this time, since Lan Xin also said so, Hongli bowed slightly to Li Yu.

"Huh." Li Yu bowed and retreated, turned around and asked Concubine Chun to come in.

Hongli said to Lan Xin at this time: "What does the queen think is the purpose of the pure concubine here?" In fact, it's not that he can't guess, but he doesn't know what to do to make Lan Xin feel more comfortable. She can tolerate it for herself, and give up her old love for herself, so what can she do for her?

No matter what he does, Hongli just hopes that Lan Xin will not be wronged again. Especially for the sake of these irrelevant people and things.

"Your Majesty, the only thing the concubines want is harmony in the six palaces, so as not to cause trouble to the emperor. However, the emperor can govern the government with peace of mind, that's all. "How could Lan Xin not understand what Hongli was thinking, but he could care about a person, so he only wanted him to be healthy and stable, and where could he take care of his own good and bad.

In fact, it is already rare for him to have such a heart.

The thin lips opened lightly, and before Hongli's words could be spoken, Concubine Chun had already walked in lightly.

Lan Xin was speechless, just chose a place and sat down slowly, as if she knew whether she was there or not, and it did not affect Concubine Chun's acting in front of the emperor in the slightest. In this way, it is useless to say more, it is better not to say it, and let her do it.

"The concubines ask the emperor for peace, and the queen for the queen." The way Su Wanrong spoke was exactly the same as when Fang Cai and Li Yu spoke. Elegant and upright, without the slightest flattery. It's just that the joy between the eyebrows is difficult to contain: "The reason why the concubine asked to see the emperor and queen is because there is a happy event to be revealed." ”

Stroking her abdomen, which had not yet bulged, the joy in Su Wanrong's eyes became thicker and thicker, and she said in a light voice: "Congratulations to the emperor, the concubine is already three months pregnant." The harem is restored and has the joy of adding Ding, and everything depends on the blessing of the emperor. The concubines thanked the emperor for his care. ”

She knelt quietly in front of the emperor, looked at the queen carefully, and then continued: "This child is an unexpected joy given by God to the concubines, and it was originally the duty of the concubines to go to Cining Palace to serve the queen mother. Can...... The concubine got this child while taking care of Yongzhang's pox, and the fetal elephant was not stable, so the imperial doctor told the concubine to rest well. Therefore, the concubine had to ask the emperor and queen for grace in person, so that the concubine could recuperate in peace and give birth to this child for the emperor. ”

Lan Xin didn't know how Hongli would feel when he heard such words. She only knows that the road to heaven is endless, and it is a real occasion to use it on the pure concubine. The good fortune that many people can't ask for is vividly reflected in such a poisonous woman. I'm afraid that the harem is going to make a storm again, and how long this gust of wind will blow, who knows.

"Li Yu, go and pass on the imperial doctor." Hongli didn't want to believe Concubine Chun's words easily, but was bent on verifying her words. If she has a single word of falsehood, she will be punished for the crime of deceiving the king. For a woman who has repeatedly deceived herself and once intended to threaten herself, Hongli only has disgust and resistance in her heart.

Su Wanrong was calm, calmly kneeling in place and not moving. Without those flattering gestures, she looked much more gentle than before, and not the kind of gentleness that made people uncomfortable to look at.

Because of the emperor's illness, there are imperial doctors waiting in turn all day long in the Heart Cultivation Palace. It's also a coincidence, the person on duty today happens to be Cao Xuyan. In response to the old saying, it's not that enemies don't get together.

"Please ask for the pulse of Concubine Chun." Hongli only said these five short words, and then turned his head away and didn't want to say anything more.

Cao Xuyan didn't say much, and only did what the emperor ordered.

At the same time, the concubines of the Sixth Palace also followed the letter, only saying that the pure concubine came out of the elder brother and went to the Heart Cultivation Hall to ask for peace. The palace concubines who couldn't figure out the truth for a while were all restless and restless. There have been many palace concubines who can't bear it, and they all instructed the servants to prepare their shoulders, and they also want to join in the fun with the pure concubines.

After all, the emperor's illness has been more than 100 days, and during this period, she has never seen the emperor's face except for the news of the Heart Nourishing Palace from the little eunuch. It's a belly of resentment, but I don't want the emperor to be kind to the demon woman of the pure concubine to enter the palace of the heart to ask for peace.

Bi Lan also got the letter, but she didn't inform Concubine Hui. It's just that the sky has changed in the past few days, and the concubine is a little unwell with the wind and cold. In addition, there was more rain, and the old injury on the concubine's ankle was faintly painful, and her mood was not very comfortable, so she didn't want to block the concubine.

It's just that there are many things that you can't hide if you want to. Gao Lingxi sensed that something was wrong from Bilan's dodging eyes, so he called Wang Xizi to talk back. "The palace has not been completed for two or three days, and I have not walked out of the palace gate for half a step, and I don't know what wonderful scenery there is in the imperial garden. Why don't you all look good, is it because you have eaten too many greens, or have you seen the flowers and leaves for a long time, and you have dyed colors that shouldn't be dyed? ”

"Niangniang is too worried, but the third elder brother's illness has been cured, and the emperor ordered that Concubine Chun return to Cining Palace and continue to serve the queen mother." Bi Lan thought that by saying this, the concubine would be able to feel more relieved.

Unexpectedly, before the words fell, Gao Lingxi stood up suddenly: "Go to the Heart Cultivation Palace." ”

"Niangniang......" Bi Lan frowned and said: "You are not feeling well, isn't it good to stay in the palace to rest, why do you want to go to the Heart Cultivation Palace." The emperor's dragon body is not safe, and he has not seen the concubines of the Sixth Palace for a long time, and he knows that he is going to eat a closed door, so why bother to go through this experience. ”

"Su Wanrong will definitely refuse to return to Cining Palace to serve the sick, with her vicious nature, she must have thought of a trick to make Yongzhang recover. If the palace does not go to the Heart Cultivation Hall to stop it, the queen is tolerant, and the emperor has a new queen, the vicious slut of the pure concubine must have a way to ask the emperor to withdraw the holy decree. ”

Bi Lan sighed helplessly, and persuaded in a low voice: "Since you know that it is irreparable, why do you have to wade into troubled waters, Niangniang." Ever since you came back from the emperor Mulan Qiuqiu, you have rarely asked about the intrigue in the harem. It is precisely because of this that the emperor treats you more and more kindly. has already walked out of right and wrong, why bother to walk back by yourself. The slave and maid feel sorry for you. ”

Gao Lingxi smiled warmly, but his lips were full of bitterness: "Where is there a pure place in the harem, right and wrong have never gone away. It's just that I'm avoiding it and deceiving myself. Maybe the emperor won't take my words to heart at all, but saying it can at least make me feel happier in my own heart. Even if the emperor likes Concubine Chun no matter how much he likes, he shouldn't be blinded by such a traitor. ”

"The emperor won't, Niangniang, you are relieved, how could the emperor not be able to detect the thoughts of the pure concubine. Besides, isn't there still a queen? Bi Lan didn't want Concubine Hui to be a little worried, but she also knew that she couldn't stop it: "That's it, Wang Xizi, you go and prepare for the shoulder." After this experience, we should give our mother a reassuring medicine. ”

Gao Lingxi smiled slightly, his obsidian-like eyes flashing with brilliance: "Thank you, Bi Lan." ”
