Chapter 537: Carved jade cut Qiong Mobi incense
Seeing the visitor, Lan Xin didn't feel strange at all. Last evening, the errand of the emperor's order to worship the room had already been spread to the six palaces, so it seemed reasonable for the noble people to come to ask for peace early this morning.
Suo Lan also knew why, so he couldn't help but smile and said: "The noble man came early, and the queen mother has just finished washing and is about to make up." ”
Chen Qingqing's cheeks were smeared with peach powder, which made her face "color" very good, and it was very moisturized. "The concubine has not come to Changchun Palace for a long time to serve the queen's mother, but it is the concubine's omission. I hope that the queen will forgive her sins. Stepping forward to take the horn comb in Suo Lan's hand, Chen Qingqing smiled and said, "If the mother doesn't dislike it, let the concubine come and give you your hair, right?" ”
Lan Xin hummed softly, also smiling gently.
Jin Lan and Suo Lan glanced at each other, and they were ridiculing this graceful nobleman in their hearts. It is said that the emperor has not summoned her to bed, and even if she does, her grace will not be as good as others, so why come to ask for peace in such a hurry.

"Queen Mother, there is something that the concubine should not say." Chen Qingqing hesitated again and again, and only said such a sentence in the queen's ear lightly.
A room full of palace people who serve the morning rise, and of course many words are inconvenient to say. Lan Xin smiled at the makeup mirror of the Wutong Phoenix, and said calmly: "Wan Gui's heart is as careful as dust, and he knows the thoughts of this palace best. I want to come to the bun that looks the best. You all go down, there are noble people here to talk to the palace. ”
Suo Lan said happily: "The slave maid will choose some delicate flowers and wait for the queen to wear hairpins." ”
"If you have anything to say, you can say it directly." Lan Xin looked at the graceful person in the mirror, and it seemed that the delicate smile was even thicker. Just suddenly, the smile faded in an instant, as if it had never appeared on her face.
"Since the concubine served by the side of the Queen Mother, she found an extremely strange thing. That is, the Queen Mother always has to fiddle with a few pigeons all day long. And these pigeons seem to see something different from day to day. Chen Qingqing knew how to be in control, and she could only say half of what she could say, so the doubts between her eyebrows and eyes were fleeting, and the smile redecorated her face.
"Pigeons are good, the most docile birds, and they remember the way, and they are more useful than the old horses who know the way." Lan Xin didn't say much, he had told Fu Heng to track down the source of the carrier pigeon, but there was no news at this time. I don't want this graceful person to be careful, even the Queen Mother can detect it when she strokes a different carrier pigeon all day long.
The most important thing is that she has the heart to explain it to herself. Lan Xin calmed down and thought about it carefully, the emperor was able to put the green head card of the noble man on the table, which may indicate that he didn't mind the things in the past so much. So Wan Guiren thought about taking the opportunity to behave well, and it was best to get his own understanding. In this way, her future path will be easier.
"Okay, Hongu likes the style of this bun very much." Lan Xin looked at himself in the mirror and looked at himself: "You are the one who has been serving since the subterfuge." I know what the emperor likes, and I also pay attention to what the palace likes. ”
"The concubine is terrified." Chen Qingqing knelt aggrievedly at the queen's feet: "The concubine was confused for a while, and she almost made a big mistake." Although the emperor has forgiven the concubine, the concubine is still uneasy. The queen's mother, the concubine has known that she is the emperor's person since she entered the palace. For the husband and the emperor, the concubines have never had two hearts, but they are just ...... Just ......"
"That's it." Lan Xin interrupted Wan Guiren's words that he was ashamed to speak: "Since the emperor has forgiven you, this palace naturally has nothing to worry about. It is your blessing to be able to serve by the side of the Queen Mother, and it is even more of your blessing to be able to serve the Holy Car again. Since you are blessed, cherish it, this palace knows that you are a person with a heart, and it will definitely not treat you badly. The past is gone, and the past is the past, and there is no need to mention it again. ”
Chen Qingqing kowtowed to the queen three times in a row, and each time he was extra hard. Even through the thick woolen carpet, you can still hear the muffled sound. "Thank you for the queen's forgiveness, the concubines must serve the emperor well and serve the queen mother well, and live up to the kindness of the mother."
After sending Chen Qingqing away, he had seen a group of palace concubines, Lan Xin was thinking about going to take a look at Concubine Chun, but the emperor came. "Your Majesty, it's so early today." During these days, Lan Xin has thought about it a lot and got used to it a lot. In the past, when I saw the emperor being intimate with others, I felt a little uncomfortable. Now, she's used to it.
Not to mention, these women are calculating their future and favor, and the emperor is also calculating their sincerity. Coming and going, no one is sorry for anyone, everything is just the fate of thousands of years of inconvenience in the Forbidden City with red walls and golden tiles.
"The previous dynasty was calm, but there was nothing big about it, so I thought I would come and talk to you." Hongli habitually held Lan Xin's hand and gently rested it in his generous palm.
"Wei Chang is smart and clever, and if he can serve the emperor, he will definitely be able to relieve the emperor's worries, right? I don't know how it compares to Su Gege in the past? Lan Xin said this, and he was taken aback. How can you bring it up in a good way. Fortunately, Hongli's face was calm, and there was no difference in the end.
"Compared with Su Gege in the past, Wei Changzai is much more stubborn and reckless, and he is not a little bird at all. It's just that she is smart and clever, but she is also an interpreter flower. Hongli smiled as usual and said calmly.
Lan Xin was a little relieved at this time, and his expression slowly softened: "When I entered the palace, Wei Chang was only fourteen. It's still a little girl who doesn't understand anything. The sudden conviction shocked her heart somewhat. What's more, the life of Zhulinyuan is hard in the end, and the concubine wants her to stay out of the matter, so she has to do so.
Who knew that she had finally been able to serve the emperor by her side, and the most important person around her had an accident. I'm afraid that this incident will hurt her heart again. ”
Hongli agreed with this and couldn't help but bow: "What the queen said is very true." I also know that Huai'an's business is that I can't stand her. But the most suspicious person...... I didn't want to believe she did it. Chapter 537 of Empress Xiaoxian, the Legend of Emperor Ranwen's Concubine: Cutting Jade and Cutting Qiong Mobi Incense
"The emperor is naturally not wrong. One is that there is no evidence, and the other is not necessarily without hidden secrets. Lan Xin lowered his eyebrows, and Lang Ning said: "I have to appease the emperor, I think Wei Chang will understand the emperor's displeasure sooner or later." Things in the harem seem to be clear, but in fact, they are intertwined and not easy to figure out at all.
I really figured it out, but instead of doing good, I was afraid that it would make people more uneasy and lose the face of the royal family. It's the best way to calm things down. Although it is the golden mean, there is only so much that a concubine can do. ”
"You've done enough." Hongli tightened the jade hand in his palm, and said admittedly: "If it weren't for your dedication to handling all the things in the harem for me all these years, I wouldn't have known what to worry about. Listening to Li Yu, the noble people came to your palace to ask for peace when they got up early? ”
"Thank you for your praise." These words were very rusty and polite, but Lan Xin felt that he couldn't help but say them. "Wan Guiren did come, and it came early. said that he was serving the concubine to make up, but in fact he was asking the concubine to forgive his mistakes. ”
"All I can give her is some of the favors she wants. But he couldn't give her affection. Hongli was very frank and said bluntly: "Don't use it for a hundred times to be disloyal once, no matter whether she is true or innocent or fake in the past." Remembering her many years of service by my side, and also remembering her father's service in the previous dynasty, I will not embarrass her in any more ways. ”
Lan Xin sighed silently, just a gentle smile on his face. It is reasonable for the emperor to do this, so he doesn't need to be disloyal a hundred times at a time, he sees the hearts of others as cold as himself.
Rolling his eyes slightly, Hongli saw Lan Xin put on a thick silk robe: "Where are you going?" ”
"The concubine is preparing to go to see Concubine Chun." Lan Xin did not shy away from it: "Since Concubine Chun became pregnant, her body has been getting worse day by day, and she is about to give birth to Lin'er, and the concubine is afraid that she will not be able to bear it." ”
Hongli sighed, and "rubbed" his eyebrows: "I heard Cao Xuyan say that the fetus of the pure concubine is very depleting to the mother. But it doesn't matter, this child is her own decision. ”
"What the emperor said is very true." Lan Xin almost sneered, it was Concubine Chun who deserved to die, and Concubine Chun had to give birth to this child for him. But if he hadn't forced Concubine Chun to do something despicable, in the end, how could he have "forced" her into a desperate situation. It's good now, but it doesn't hurt to say a word, just push everything away.
What kind of man did you fall in love with?
"The concubine has a saying, I don't know whether to ask or not." Lan Xin tried her best to make her voice sound calm.
"You want to ask, when Concubine Chun gives birth to the imperial heir, where to go." Hongli smiled calmly: "I have something to say, let you personally raise the child of Concubine Chun." For Concubine Chun, this is her great blessing. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Lan Xin thought, so far, there is no need to ask.
Who knew that Hongli wanted to finish his words: "As for Concubine Chun, if she gives birth to an elder brother, I will look at the sake of the two elder brothers, and let her stay in Zhongcui Palace to worship the Buddha in peace." I will not be too difficult for her if she has merit and the successor of the emperor. ”
"The concubine understands." Lan Xin smiled calmly.
"You go and see Concubine Chun, I will raise the heart hall to read the excerpts." Hongli got up, and didn't look the slightest concern.
Lan Xin was slightly blessed: "The emperor is one step ahead, and the concubines still have to prepare something." ”
Hongli bowed slightly: "It's cold in winter, you also have to pay attention to your body." ”
"After all, it's no different." Lan Xin muttered to herself. In Hongli's heart, there is only himself. In fact, she herself hated Concubine Chun, and she didn't want Concubine Chun to continue to cause trouble. But a woman, pregnant with his child, is dying, why doesn't he have the slightest mercy and sympathy? Is love really so unbearable in his eyes?
