"Yo, look, isn't that our concubine? Niang Niang Wan Fu Jin'an. Several small palace maids gathered around, pointing and laughing at the person in front of them.

"Holding a broken wooden basin in her hand and wearing sloppy clothes, if you don't say it, who can tell that she is Concubine Yi's mother? It's ridiculous. ”

"Isn't it? We, the palace daughters who do rough work, can get out of the palace when they are 25 years old. She's afraid she's going to have to stay here for the rest of her life. ”

The sound of ridicule can be regarded as inaudible by Bai Xuyu. But the pain in her heart is still difficult to soothe, and she can't understand why the good days have become like this. Before he put down the wooden basin, the housekeeper's grandmother took a short whip and whipped it on the back of her fine-skinned and tender hand. "Ahh Hurt! What are you doing? ”

"When is it that you're still lazy, and how long will it take to wash these clothes? Delay in drying, delay in sending it to the masters of the palaces, can you afford to eat the sin? Don't forget, although you are still a concubine, you are not what it used to be. The emperor doesn't want to see you again, do you still think that you are the concubine who was high up in the past? With an angry tone! The mother's eyes widened, and her disgust did not decrease: "No matter how slow the action is, you will suffer it." ”

shouted to a few small palace daughters standing in the distance, and Mama's voice was sharp and shocking: "Don't be lazy, don't be lazy, when the work in your hands is done, you will keep an eye on her and work." If any garment is not clean, you will suffer. ”

With that, Mama turned around and left haughtily. The remaining Xiaogong daughters didn't dare to slack off for a moment, and worked around Yi Concubine, but they didn't stop scolding Huai.

Feng Lan stood with Concubine Chun for a while, and watched for a while, seeing that it was almost noon, and the sun was scorching. Feng Lancai whispered: "Niangniang, why don't we go back?" I've been watching it for a long time, presumably Concubine Yi's life won't be easy. Why are you here watching her suffer? ”

Su Wanrong smiled faintly: "What is the scorching sun, I am afraid that the hatred in Yi Concubine's heart is much stronger than this sun." ”

"But you just watch, do you help her......" Feng Lan didn't understand, it's all at this time, what use value does Yi Concubine have. She must be a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and she can't protect herself.

"I know you have doubts in your heart, thinking that this palace is watching Concubine Yi down." Su Wanrong wiped the fragrant sweat from her forehead with a Su embroidered silk, and said with a calm smile: "Actually, you should know that this palace is not so boring. Bengong's mind will not be as superficial as Concubine Yi. Just wondering what she could become. Knowing how miserable she is, you know how much she hates. Wait and see, she will definitely be able to do Hongu a great favor. ”

Feng Lan saw that the poisonous light in Concubine Chun's eyes was bright again, and she was slightly stunned in her heart. "Other slaves and maids are not afraid, but they are just afraid that Concubine Yi will be stupid and miss your big event. What's more, she and Wan Guiren dog-eat-dog, no one will let anyone go, which shows how superficial her mind is. If the mother wants her to do something, aren't you afraid that she won't be able to keep the secret and shake off the bottom? ”

"Hongu will naturally calculate. won't let her know that everything behind the scenes is controlled by this palace. Su Wanrong turned around and left slowly, whispering: "After enduring it for so long, it's time to do something that needs to be done." The third elder brother of the palace is not angry, not to mention that he can't get the emperor's favor, even his own mother has to calculate, is the palace blind?

All hopes are pinned on Yongying, no matter what, this palace must also let him be the queen's adopted son...... Ascend to the throne. The last four words pinned on Su Wanrong's hope in this life. After more than 20 years of fighting, from the house to the palace, she couldn't stop.

Since you've been fighting for so long, and you've been calculating for so long, you have to find a final way out for yourself, don't you? Yongying is his only way out.

"Blessed is the Queen." Panyu didn't expect the queen to come to Cining Palace at this time, and she was a little embarrassed. "The concubine has lost her honor."

If you say that you are out of order, you are really out of line. Xian Guifei was making lily cakes, not only her hands were covered with powder, but even her forehead, the tip of her nose, her chest, and her cuffs were all white, and she looked really embarrassed. Lan Xin glanced at the Queen Mother beside her, who was so embarrassed that she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Concubine Xian doesn't have to be polite, since you're busy, let's continue to be busy with the things in your hands." Lan Xin is very gentle, whether it is for Concubine Xian or the Queen Mother, she has long forgotten all the bad.

"Panyu, hurry up, the mourning family can't wait. It's done in a while, and I'll send it to the emperor. The emperor likes to eat the lily cake made by the palace, not to mention the fragrant and soft glutinous, or made of freshly ground glutinous rice flour, and the kung fu is exquisite. When she spoke, the Queen Mother's face was only full of happiness, like a girl who had just fallen in love, and she looked sweet and happy.

"Queen Mother, would it be okay to let the concubines also come to help?" Lan Xin asked with a smile: "If there is one more person to help, it will be done faster." It's better to send it to the emperor as soon as possible. ”

The Queen Mother glanced at the queen at this time, and her brows were twisted. "Panyu, who is she? Mourning family looks, why is it a little familiar? ”

"Queen Mother, this is the Queen Mother." Panyu smiled warmly: "The queen mother is the best at making lily cakes, the queen mother, you don't know yet, right?" ”

"Is it Empress Xiaojingxian?" The Queen Mother stood up violently and was shocked: "No, the mourning family will not be afraid of you, don't want to please the emperor, the emperor has only the mourning family alone in his heart." The emperor won't want you, he won't want you. ”

"Queen Mother." Pan Yu held the hand of the Queen Mother, and coaxed and deceived in a gentle tone: "Queen Mother, don't be so excited, it's easy to get wrinkled." Then the emperor doesn't like you. This queen is not Queen Xiaojingxian, but the fourth elder brother's Fujin. Don't you like the fourth elder brother the most, Fujin will enter the palace in the future, and Yi'er will be the queen you canonized. Let's make lily cakes, shall we? ”

"Fourth Elder Brother's Fujin?" The Queen Mother muttered, "The daughter of the Fucha clan? ”

"The concubine is." Lan Xin also tried to soften his tone. "Queen Mother, will the concubine accompany you to make lily cakes?"

After tossing for a long time, the lily cake was finally finished. But the Queen Mother also fell asleep tiredly.

Lan Xin and Panyu settled down with the Queen Mother before they could sit down and have a good chat. "These days, the wind and grass in the harem, the concubine rarely pays attention to it, and the days are peaceful, but the palace doesn't know if you are smooth."

Pan Yu smiled gently, which was peaceful and tranquil from the heart: "Queen Mother, the concubine thinks everything is fine." left right and wrong, but felt that life was full. You have also seen that the Queen Mother is inseparable from people for a while. The concubines serve the queen mother here, firstly, the concubines are within their capabilities, and secondly, the concubines are selfish, I am afraid that there is only this one thing, and the emperor can rest assured that the concubines will be handed over. And the concubines can finally do their best for the emperor. ”

"It's hard for you." Lan Xin really didn't know what else to say besides saying this.

"It's not embarrassing." Pan Yu smiled with relief and held the queen's hand affectionately: "These days, the concubine has thought a lot and figured out a lot. In the past, the concubine complained about you, but if you think about it carefully, even if there is no such thing, the concubine's temperament has long been able to satisfy the emperor. Now it's better, the anger in my heart has been eliminated, and the concubines can face the emperor calmly. Occasionally, the emperor came to accompany the queen mother to dinner, and the concubines could also talk a lot on the side.

Sometimes, fighting is not necessarily a good thing, but staying out of the situation can understand more. Queen, let the past pass. The concubines like the simple days now. If you can, Niangniang, please let the concubine live like this. ”

Lan Xin held Panyu's hand back: "What kind of life you want to live is up to you." Since this is good, Hongu will definitely not interfere with you. ”

The two of them talked a lot, but they were close to their hearts like never before.

"The queen is overjoyed." Jinlan and Suo Lan walked side by side, exuding intense joy all over them. "Congratulations to the Queen. Lord Fucha's grandson Fujin has given birth to Xiaobeizi safely. ”

"Little Beizi?" Lan Xin was a little surprised: "Did the emperor make a holy decree?" ”

"Back to the queen's mother, exactly." Suo Lan replied with a smile: "As soon as the emperor heard that Fujin gave birth to Xiao Beizi, he immediately named it and sent it to the adult's mansion together with the will to canonize Beizi. ”

"Oh?" felt a little uncomfortable, Lan Xin didn't show it as much as possible. "The emperor cares about this child like this. What's the name? ”

"Xiaobeizi's name is Fukangan." Jinlan said with joy.

"Fukangan?" Lan Xin nodded slowly: "It's a good name." This is the emperor's high hopes for this child, hoping that he can grow up safely and become a pillar of the country as soon as possible. So, Jinlan, you go pick out some good things and send them as a congratulatory gift later. Three days later, the palace went to visit Fujin with the emperor. ”

"Slave and maid, let's arrange it." Jinlan Suolan smiled and retreated.

But the little marquis was still standing in place and did not move. Lan Xin saw that he hadn't left, so he couldn't be surprised: "Is there anything else?" ”

"Lord Fucha has sent a lot of wedding cakes to the palace, and the slave wants to ask the queen, how to distribute these wedding cakes?" Because Xue Guining had another errand, he was just in time for Xiao Houzi to be on duty today. Originally, there were a lot of wedding cakes, but which palace should be sent and which palace should not be sent, in the end, I had to ask the queen's heart.

"Since there are a lot, let's send some to each palace." Lan Xin always felt that something was wrong, so he had to add: "Give it to the emperor and hand it over to the palace, and later the palace will go to the Heart Cultivation Palace to ask for peace, and hand it over to the emperor in person." ”

"Huh." Xiao Houzi was relieved and retreated happily.

Lan Xin opened the box of gift cakes, looked at it again and again, and finally a smile overflowed from the corner of his mouth. She knew that with this child, Chunhe would definitely be able to renew her friendship with Miaoyun. In this way, the past will be forgotten, which is not a bad thing.

It was only when she came to greet the emperor with a wedding cake that she knew that the emperor had left the palace and still went to Fu Heng's mansion.

Standing outside the door of the Heart Cultivation Palace, Lan Xin was puzzled: "Why is the emperor so anxious to see the newborn child?" ”

"Unless, that child is the emperor."

There was a voice of echoing, Lan Xin was shocked, turned his head, and realized that the person standing in front of him was actually an old man. "And the Prince? How did you end up in the palace? ”

"Naturally, it was summoned by the emperor, and the younger brother dared to enter the palace. Otherwise, the queen thinks that I can have Xiao Feng's ability, repeatedly sneak into the palace to secretly spy on secrets, and still give the emperor a reasonable reason to forgive him for his guilt? Hongtian was a little excited, barely suppressed in his heart. I haven't seen him for so long, Lan Xin is still graceful and graceful, and his appearance has not changed at all from the appearance in his memory.

"What do you want to say to Hongu again?" Lan Xin's words were euphemistic: "Could it still be the same rhetoric from the past?" You know, it's not just good to say something, sometimes you calm down and think about it, but it's just a competition with yourself, and you may not be able to understand it. Or, the place simply doesn't listen. ”

Hongtian lowered his eyebrows, only caring about his own sadness, and it took a long time to raise his head and find that Lan Xin had gone far, far away. "What do you want me to say? Why are you always so ruthless, Lan Xin, do you know that whether it was more than 20 years ago or now, my heart has never changed. How I longed for the day when I could walk west with you and watch the sunset......"

In the evening, Lan Xin finally waited for Hongli.

Hongli was full of joy, but it was maintained within the right range, and he did not perform excessively after all.

"Why did the emperor go to Fu Heng's house alone and not let Lan Xin follow?" It's not that I'm too careful, and I don't want to be too distracted. Lan Xin just felt a little strange. "It's that the concubines' necks are long, and they can't look forward to the emperor's return."

"A little thing, I want to discuss it with Fu Heng. It just so happened that Yating accompanied me out for a walk, and she caught up with such a happy event, so she stayed for a while. It's tired of remembering. In Hongli's gentle eyes, there was only a lingering affection.

Lan Xin looked at it and felt very relieved. "The concubine has seen Prince He today, and it seems that the emperor summoned him and put him aside."

"Oh, yes." Hongli slapped his head and laughed guiltily: "If you hadn't reminded me, I would have forgotten about it." ”

"The emperor has all kinds of opportunities, so naturally there are things to remember and things to forget." Lan Xin took the initiative to snuggle up to his shoulder and was speechless for a long time. Suddenly, he sat up again, and said with a serious smile: "Your Majesty, the concubines hope that this moment can last a long time." ”

"Yes." I'll be by your side all the time.

"Your Majesty, do you know? Concubine Jia asked the concubine what four words were engraved on the wrench finger of this mutton fat white jade. But the concubine didn't tell her......" Lan Xin blinked lightly and happily stuck to the side of the emperor's face: "This is the secret between the emperor and the concubine, and the concubine doesn't want others to know about it." ”

"You......" Hongli scratched the tip of Lan Xin's nose dotingly, hugged her tightly in his arms, and kissed her softly.
