Chapter Seventy-Six: What's Wrong with the Face?
Nangong Yan's deep eyes stared at her face tightly, and every subtle expression of her was seen by him. In an instant, he removed his face from her, the warm breath brushed her cold cheeks, and the palms of his hands welled up with a tingle, but fortunately her body was close to the pillar behind her, so that she could stand calmly.
"Yi'er, the emperor has gone far."
Nangong Yan walked into the imperial study, and when the chamberlain saw that she was still stupidly leaning against the pillar, he stepped forward and shook it in front of her eyes with his hand.
"I see." Tang Yiyi opened his hand, his words were full of contempt, and the chamberlain pursed his lips, although she was a descendant of the royal family, she was already down, and now the aristocratic momentum on this body has not completely faded.
At the end of the three-day mourning period of the eldest prince, Zhao Niang walked into the Fengluan Palace to send a message to Yu Qiqi, saying that the master of Qingshui Temple said that the emperor and the queen mother should go to the tablet of the eldest prince to read a scripture so that they could send the eldest prince.
Yu Qiqi had not yet come out of his mourning, his face was haggard, there was no light in his eyes, and he only nodded.
Zhao Niang pursed her lips, and it took a long time before she opened her mouth and asked her, "Then, the slave maid went to inform the emperor?" "After Nangong Yan came that day, he didn't come again, and they didn't dare to mention him easily.
"Hmm."
She nodded feebly, still weakly.
Zhao Niang leaned towards her slightly, and after instructing Ah Jian to help her make up, she went to Nangong Yan.
But I didn't want to, I met Tang Yiyi outside the imperial study, and when she saw that face, Zhao Niang was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that something was wrong, she looked more childish than Lu Yin, otherwise she really thought that she was alive and dead.
Tang Yiyi didn't notice her change, she just stood outside the imperial study, although Nangong Yan rescued her from Shen Feihong's hands, she still ignored her, never wanted her to serve in front of him, and kept hanging her so far away.
Zhao Niang walked into the imperial study and relayed the words of Master Qingshui Temple to him, Nangong Yan only answered in a low voice, and did not ask about Yu Qiqi, she had to lean over and retreat.
When she went out and passed by Tang Yiyi's side, she wanted to ask more, but when she looked back at the person in the imperial study who bowed her head and reviewed the folds, she didn't dare to say more, so she had to leave first, wanting to find an opportunity to interrogate her again.
When she returned to Fengluan Palace, Ah Jian had already combed Yu Qiqi, she was wearing a plain shirt, a small white flower was pinned to her bun, and her makeup was light, and it was difficult to hide the tiredness on her face.
"Niangniang, the emperor's slave has already told him, do you want to go over first?" Zhao Niang didn't tell her about meeting Tang Yiyi.
The tablet of the eldest prince is set up in the Li'an Hall, and it is a long way from Fengluan Palace, which is farther than from the imperial study.
"Hmm."
She stared at the haggard face in the bronze mirror for a moment, then stood up. She had only been sitting for a few days in confinement, and her body was still very weak and could not withstand the cold, so Ah Jian took a very thick mink fleece and let her wear it, and carried her with Zhao Niang, and went out of the door of Fengluan Palace.
She hadn't been out of the palace for a few days, and at the moment, looking at the white dots on the flowers and trees in the palace, and the ice sculptures hanging on the eaves, the tip of her nose was sour.
Since she became pregnant, she has rarely paid attention to other matters, and has only focused on the child, and she can't imagine that the child still can't be saved.
"..."
Seeing her stunned as she looked at the flowers and trees outside the corridor, Zhao Niang called her softly.
She swallowed the bitterness in her throat before stepping forward. Ah Jian was also uncomfortable in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it in front of her, for fear that she would be even more uncomfortable when she saw it.
When she arrived at the Li'an Hall, the futon on the ground had been prepared, Yu Qiqi stepped forward and knelt on the futon, with a scripture book in front of her, and the master of Qingshui Temple chanting on the side.
Now, just wait for Nangong Yan to come over.
Zhao Niang and Ah Jian waited outside, and incense was burning in the hall all the year round, and the smell of incense wafted out from the inside, lingering around the entire Rite Hall.
About half an hour later, Nangong Yan's figure appeared outside the Li'an Hall, only one attendant followed behind him, and Zhao Niang breathed a sigh of relief.
When he arrived at the door, Nangong Yan looked at the figure kneeling on the futon, raised his feet and walked in, and the attendants who came with him were also waiting outside.
"Queen."
When he walked to Yu Qiqi's side, he opened his mouth and called her, but she only closed her eyes slightly and did not answer. His face was astringent, and he knelt beside her.
Master Kiyomizuji, who was reciting sutras on the side, walked up and chanted in front of the two of them, and they followed them. Three hours later, the service was completed.
Yu Qiqi opened her eyes and looked at the tablet of the eldest prince, there was not even a name on it, only an empty tablet, a layer of tears welled up in her eyes, and the tears fell again.
Nangong Yan wanted to open her mouth to comfort her, but she turned her head first, bowed her head and pleaded with him: "Your Majesty, the eldest prince is in a hurry, and the concubine also asks you to name the eldest prince, so that you can mourn in the future." ”
Otherwise, she wouldn't even have a name to call him.
"Okay." Nangong Yan opened his mouth and agreed, and there was distress between his eyebrows and eyes.
Seeing that the Dharma inside was finished, Ah Jian hurriedly walked in and picked Yu Qiqi up, she knelt for too long, and her knees were already numb.
Nangong Yan wanted to open her mouth to say a few words to her, but she was helped out by Ah Jian first, and her attitude towards him was still cold.
Zhao Niang greeted the two of them outside, and when she walked back, she saw Tang Yiyi walking towards Li'an Hall, holding a robe in her hand, which must have been given to Nangong Yan.
"Ah Jian, Niangniang's body can't stand the cold, you come over here and hold her, I'll change positions with you." The direction she came in was the direction that Ah Jian could see.
Ah Jian replied puzzled, she had already let go of her hand and walked towards her, Ah Jian had to exchange places with her, Zhao Niang covered Tang Yiyi who was walking towards them on the corridor in the distance, and the three of them walked towards Fengluan Palace.
Tang Yiyi stood on the corridor, looking at the figure being supported in the distance, she knew that it must be Nangong Yan's queen.
Holding the robe in her hand, she hurriedly walked to the door of the Li'an Hall, and almost bumped into Nangong Yan who came out of it, "Who told you to come here?" When he opened his mouth, he reprimanded her.
"Yi'er was afraid that you would catch a cold, so I helped you bring your clothes." Tang Yiyi took a step back and lowered his head.
"Eventful! In the future, without my permission, I can't leave half a step! He said coldly, her little face flushed with cold, and then she said, "Yes." There was grievance in his words.
"Go back!"
Nangong Yan walked past her eyes, leaving a cold chill in her wake.
She twitched the tip of her nose and cautiously followed him.
After going back to review the folds, Nangong Yan asked the chamberlain to find a few history books, and he remembered Yu Qiqi's words and wanted to name their deceased child.
After flipping through the history books for a long time, he drew up a few names on the rice paper, and he instructed the attendant beside him to take the rice paper to Yu Qiqi and let her choose one.
It was already dark outside, he got up from the dragon chair and walked outside, it had snowed all day during the day, but it didn't fall at night, but it was still very cold outside, and a gust of cold wind was blowing.
Hearing the footsteps coming out of it, Tang Yiyi hurriedly turned around and blessed him, her face and hands were already frozen, and she tried to control her body so that she didn't tremble in front of him.
"Let's go down."
Nangong Yan's cold voice came from above her head.
"Yes."
Tang Yiyi responded softly, and then felt that something was not right, and raised his head again to look at him and opened his mouth, "Huh? ”
"I'll tell you to step down." He repeated it again.
At this time, she understood what he meant, it seemed that she was too cold, so she ordered her to retreat, she gently stroked her hands and asked him, "Queen, do you want the slave to serve you to soak your feet?" "He had been sitting in the imperial study for so long, and his legs must have been blocked from breath, so she used to soak her father's feet often.
Nangong Yan thought she had misheard, and when she saw her staring at herself and winking, she realized that what she said was true, "No need." He answered her with a blank face, and went back to rest.
The chamberlain took the rice paper he gave and went to Yu Qiqi and handed it to her, "Queen Mother, this is the name that the emperor proposed for the eldest prince, let you choose one from above." ”
Yu Qiqi took it in her hand and spread it out on the table, as soon as she saw the name on it, Yu Qiqi knew that Nangong Yan must have turned over a lot of history books before she came up with it, she carefully stared at those names, and finally chose a name called Nangong Xuan, which is the most suitable name for being the eldest son.
"Yes."
The waiter agreed, took the rice paper and retreated.
Zhao Niang glanced at the figure of the waiter and quietly followed. When he was about to walk down the jade steps, he was stopped by Zhao Niang, "Father-in-law, wait." ”
"What else does the queen have to say?"
The waiter turned his head and saw Zhao Niang running towards him, and asked her, still angry in his mouth.
Zhao Niang glanced left and right, took out a piece of broken silver from her sleeve, and said in a low voice: "It's not the mother's order, it's the slave who has something to ask her father-in-law." She shoved the broken silver into his hand.
The waiter rolled his eyes, and then hooked the corners of his mouth, "Auntie, excuse me." ”
With a smile on her face, Zhao Niang pulled him aside, "The maid who is new to the emperor and waits, why haven't I seen it in the harem before?" The palace people in this palace are all left by the previous dynasty, and after the emperor ascended the throne, he did not invite people in from outside. ”
"You don't know that, do you? She was brought back by the emperor from Western Chu. The chamberlain laughed, and then lowered his voice, "I heard that she is still the eldest princess of Xichu, and before she was down, her status was noble." There was a hint of disdain in his words.
"Isn't the emperor already executed by the people of the Western Chu royal family?" Zhao Niang was shocked, according to Nangong Yan's temperament, she would definitely not leave a living mouth.
"Yes, but somehow, this eldest princess was left alone. I looked at it, and it didn't seem like I was looking at her beauty, and the emperor didn't let her come to serve her, but hung her from afar. The waiter thought about it for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out.
Zhao Niang was in her heart, why did he leave Tang Yiyi behind, it must be because she looked like Lu Yin, but he didn't let her come to serve her, and it was related to Lu Yin.
"Then, this eldest princess is also willing to stay in front of the emperor like this?" It stands to reason that Nangong Yan is her enemy, but anyone who has a little backbone will also want to seek revenge from him, Tang Yiyi is so indifferent?
"Why not? Although the emperor left her far away, but in the end she still stayed in front of him, maybe one day she climbed onto the dragon bed, and she would soar, and she could live back to the previous appearance of worry-free food and clothing, which was better than wandering outside. ”
The chamberlain was born to be a eunuch in the harem, and he longed for the days of worry-free food and clothing, but he thought that Tang Yiyi thought the same way.
"Alright, let's go!"
As soon as she heard what he said, Zhao Niang couldn't wait to rush people, and the good face on Fang Cai's face when he asked him for news.
"Hey, auntie, you..."
The waiter wanted to say a few more words, but she was ruthlessly driven away.
She pondered outside for a while, not knowing what the purpose of this Tang Yiyi staying by Nangong Yan's side was, maybe it was to take revenge, but these Nangong Yan would definitely think of it, thinking that one day Yu Qiqi would see her, she would not feel good in her heart.
It's not good to put people anywhere, but to provoke them to the harem.
On the second day, there was a name on the blank tablet of the eldest prince in the Li'an Hall. Yu Qiqi went on a special trip, and when he saw that the name was engraved on it, his heart was put down.
She knelt on the futon again and recited the scriptures for a while before returning to Fengluan Palace.
Chu Peiyu returned to Nangong Yan as a guard, and he also saw Tang Yiyi, but he didn't ask much, and later learned that she was the eldest princess of Xichu.
"Do you think she looks like Wan Niang too?"
On this day, after entering the imperial study, Nangong Yan opened his mouth to ask Chu Peiyu. For Midori Moan, he would only say to him.
Chu Peiyu narrowed her eyes, "Miss Yi'er does look like Wan Niangniang." Then he paused, then raised his head again, "But the emperor, why do you want her to stay in the palace, if she is seen by the queen mother..."
"Are you afraid she'll be angry?" Nangong Yan looked at him.
He lowered his head, "Don't dare." It's just that when she was in the East Palace, the queen girl had a lot of discord with Wan Niangniang, and the lowly always had such concerns. ”
"Although she looks like Wan Niang, she is never her. At first, I was afraid that Qiqi would be angry, but then I didn't want to drive her away, and I always had regrets in my heart for Wanniang. That's why he didn't drive Tang Yiyi away, and he didn't let her serve in front of him.
"The queen mother has just lost her beloved son, and the emperor should not let her see it for the time being." He hesitated for a moment, but still expressed his worries.
"But that's also my beloved son, why don't I feel heartache? Although Yi'er has the same skin as Wan Niang, if the queen even cares about this, then she can't let go of her past grievances with Wan Niang. He didn't want his queen to be a person who was holding on to the guilt of the past.
"Yes..."
It took a long time for Chu Peiyu's mouth to come out of this sound.
When he withdrew, he glanced at Tang Yiyi meaningfully, as long as she didn't have any entanglement with Nangong Yan, he could pretend not to see the rest.
But everything will not be as simple as he thinks.
A month later, I don't know where Ah Jian heard about Tang Yiyi, and ran directly to her, threatening to let her get out of the palace.
Tang Yiyi didn't comply, so she started with her. She grew up in the palace since she was a child, with fine skin and tender meat, naturally she couldn't beat Ah Jian with brute strength, and the two of them scuffled for a while, and they were pressed under Ah Jian, and her face was scratched a few times.
Chu Peiyu rushed over and took a lot of effort to pull Ah Jian off her, "This is the maid by the emperor's side!" He shouted at her.
"I don't care whose maid she is, anyway, she can't stay in this palace!" Ah Jian gasped and pointed at Tang Yiyi, who was standing behind Chu Peiyu, and scolded angrily.
Chu Peiyu frowned, turned back to Tang Yiyi behind him and said, "You go first." ”
Ah Jian still wanted to catch up, but he pulled back hard, "If the emperor knows about this matter, you can't eat and walk around, I can't protect you!" ”
"Who wants you to protect me, I have a princess to protect me!" She snorted coldly, lowered her head and bit the back of his hand, Chu Peiyu snorted, endured the severe pain, but she didn't let go.
Ah Jian bit for a while, raised a pair of indignant eyes to look at him, and saw that he only blushed, his mouth was stunned and he didn't let out a scream, and he didn't bite when he felt bored, "Why do you even have to protect her?!" "She is unconvinced, unwilling, unhappy, unhappy!
"She's just a down-and-out royal princess, she just looks a little similar to Midori Yin, but it's never her."
He still grabbed her hand and took out the words that Nangong Yan had said to him to prevaricate her.
"But she has that face, she can't stay in the palace, she can't stay in front of the emperor, and she can't let the queen mother bump into her!" She thinks about things, and there has always been only one brain circuit.
Tang Yiyi stayed by Nangong Yan's side, whether he was waiting in front of him or hanging far away, he would always be bumped into by Yu Qiqi one day, and when the time came, it would be too late.
"The queen mother may have put down the previous things, and she is not complaining about Wan Niangniang, what are you still doing so hard?" Chu Peiyu guessed and said.
Ah Jian sneered, and raised his sharp eyes to stare at him and asked, "Do I stay by the queen's side longer, or do you stay with the queen's mother longer?" ”
Yu Qiqi didn't care about the previous grievances with Lu Yin at all, but Nangong Yan had a thousand different experiences with Lu Yin and her, which was like a thorn, which had long been deeply rooted in her heart, how could it be removed?
Chu Peiyu raised his eyebrows, as if he understood her words, but he didn't seem to understand, and after staring at her blankly for a while, he let go of his hand.
Ah Jian stomped on his foot and ran away from him.
Chu Peiyu covered the back of her hand that was bitten and bleeding by her, only to realize that her hand no longer hurt, it hurt her own feet, so she hurriedly walked to the side and sat down and rubbed her feet.
Tang Yiyi ran all the way back to Nangong Yan's dormitory, and hesitated when he got outside, but he didn't dare to go in. Nangong Yan heard the voice outside, and said quietly, "Come in." ”
At this time, she gently raised her toes, walked in, and called out in front of him, "Your Majesty." ”
Nangong Yan raised her eyes and saw her covering her face, with a trace of blood stained on her hands, "What's wrong with your face?" ”
"I accidentally scratched it."
She lowered her head and endured the grievances in her heart.
His deep eyes were covered with a layer of deep meaning, "Who got it?" "I won't even panic, just like this, could it be accidentally scraped by myself?
Her toes moved, she pursed her lips, and after a long time she replied, "It's the maid next to the queen's mother." ”
Nangong Yan narrowed his eyes, and without thinking about it, he knew that it was Ah Jian who did it, "Let's go down and deal with it." Seeing that she was trying her best to endure the pain, he said quietly.
"Yes."
The voice behind him responded, and there was a trace of choking.
After treating the wound, her face was wrapped in a layer of gauze, and when she returned to Nangong Yan's side, he looked at it like this, but it covered up a bit of aura that was very similar to Lu Yin.
Ah Jian had stopped on the surface, but when she returned to the outside of Fengluan Palace, she was still angry. When Zhao Niang saw her coming back, she hurriedly ran forward and pulled her aside, "It's okay for you to go to her for trouble, but don't say anything in front of the queen mother!" ”
As soon as she saw her like this, Zhao Niang knew that she must be looking for trouble with Tang Yiyi.
"Don't worry, I'm measured." Zhao Niang is good for Yu Qiqi, and if she thinks about Yu Qiqi, Ah Jian will listen to her.
Hearing this, Zhao Niang slowly let go of her hand.
Walking into the inner hall, Yu Qiqi was still playing with the agarwood in her hand, the winter was almost over, she was idle every day and had nothing to do, so she roasted charcoal fire in the house to make agarwood.
A few days ago, Nangong Yan rejected the excerpt of the draft girl handed over by the ceremonial officer, and she had no concubines to manage in this harem, but she was idle.
"Bring me that piece of fragrant wood."
Xiangmu rested on Ah Jian's hand, Yu Qiqi couldn't reach it, so he called Ah Jian to help hand it over, but she didn't react when she shouted.
"Bring me that piece of fragrant wood." She repeated.
Ah Jian was stunned for a moment, and then came back to his senses, "Princess, what did you say?" ”
Yu Qiqi pointed to the fragrant wood in her hand, and she hurriedly lowered her head and gave it to her. Her mind has always been quick, and she almost never gets distracted, but in the past two days, she has always been distracted, "Quarrel with General Chu?" Yu Qiqi thought about it, and only Chu Peiyu could let her do this.
Ah Jian immediately shook his head, and then nodded again, they really quarreled, didn't they just quarrel?
"You, that is, General Chu can honestly let you bully, if you are a person with a bad temperament, I don't know how many times I have already moved with you."
Yu Qiqi scolded her.
"He didn't miss out on me!" Ah Jian immediately retorted.
She thought about it with the fragrant wood in her hand and muttered, "It's the same." But didn't he let you go? I don't really want to compete with you. ”
"Princess, why do you always talk to him, you treat him so kindly, I don't know how he treats you! He..."
Suddenly, Ah Jian remembered what Zhao Niang had just said, glanced at Zhao Niang cautiously, and found that she was staring at herself, and hurriedly closed her mouth.
Sensing that something was wrong with her, Yu Qiqi raised his head and saw that she was silent, "Why didn't you say it?" Isn't that quite tellable? ”
"The slave maid means that he is always the emperor's person, and his heart must be towards the emperor, no matter how well you treat him, he will never think about you."
With a roll of her eyes, she came up with such a set of arguments.
"I think General Chu thinks about me." Yu Qiqi thought about it and spoke. In the days when she was pregnant, Chu Peiyu has always been dutifully by her side to protect her.
As soon as these words came out, Ah Jian was out of line.
However, she still saw the abnormality of Ah Jian. It's just that he didn't say much on his lips, and he didn't show it on his face.
......
Wu Lian and Yi Concubine rested well in King Yan's mansion, and Yan Shiqing did not leak the news. There are very few people in the Nanzhao royal family who know about this matter, but at the birthday banquet of the Yishui King, Yu Zhengyan suddenly mentioned the matter, which made Yan Churan and Yan Shiqing extremely embarrassed.
Fortunately, they are all old things, and they have passed after a few teases in front of people, but Yan Churan's old face has always been a little unbearable.
Yan Shiqing didn't know why Yu Zhengyan suddenly mentioned this, but he recalled that he found the bottle of nightshade incense in Yunshui Pavilion, and his eyes were dyed with a layer of deep meaning.
After the birthday banquet, he asked Lin Chaoge and Yan Churan to go back to the house first, only saying that he still had some things to do in the palace. They thought he was going to talk to Yu Qiqi's brothers, so they didn't bother with it.
He went to Yu Zhengyan and took out the bottle of nightshade incense, "Why did the fifth prince embarrass my father at the birthday banquet?" It made Du Wanrong's face a little ugly.
Seeing the bottle of nightshade incense, Yu Zhengyan's face changed significantly, and he still pretended to be deaf and dumb and said, "What does Shizi mean by this?" ”
"What do you mean, I want to ask?" But he asked first.
"The father's birthday banquet is rare and happy, and the prince missed two sentences, the prince doesn't have to mind so much, right?" He looked like he was on top and took it for granted.
"Missing two sentences? Then this bottle of nightshade incense, should I also go to the emperor to say a few words? He sneered.
"You!"
Listening to his tone, Yu Zhengyan knew that he must have guessed the matter of nightshade, but because he was too flustered at the time, he forgot to deal with that matter, but he didn't expect that Yan Shiqing went to Nanzhao and actually lived in that Yunshui Pavilion.
"Isn't it, the fifth prince is afraid that he will not be able to sit in this position, so he wants to make it difficult for my father, so that my father will not join you in the court in the future, right?"
Although he has been with the Winged Water King for many years, there are always omissions in dealing with the court and politics, Yan Churan couldn't stand it, so he visited him once or twice in the court, thinking that he was holding a grudge, so he would be so cynical at the birthday banquet of the Winged Water King.
"Hmph, if Yan Churan is acquainted, he will not speak out in the court in the future, otherwise, the little between Concubine Yi Niangniang and him will spread in the entire Southern Zhao!"
Now that he has pierced it, he will no longer hide it.
"But, what did my father say that he was also your imperial uncle, and he joined you in the court to make you have a long memory, why didn't the five princes listen to persuasion?"
Yan Shizi laughed helplessly, with a little loss on his face.
"You don't talk about these things, is he helping me? He wanted to embarrass me in front of my father and make him less trusting me. ”
It is because of Yan Churan that the Wing Water King's trust in him is getting less and less, and even some of the government affairs that he used to let him interfere in now don't let him interfere now!
"If the Fifth Prince has to say that, then I have nothing to say. I won't make a public announcement of this matter in front of the emperor, but if you embarrass my father again in the future, I promise that it won't leak out. ”
Yan Shiqing picked up the small porcelain vase and disappeared from front of him. Yu Zhengyan sat on the bench and slapped the armrest.
He didn't care what Yu Zhengyan had done before, besides, Xichu had been recovered by Yanjing, and he couldn't find it even if he wanted to find help in the future.
When Yan Shiqing returned to Yan Wang's Mansion, Lin Chaoge was sitting on the mahogany brocade stool with a panicked expression, he walked up to her and asked, "What's wrong?" Who's embarrassed you? ”
She hurriedly grabbed his hand and stared at him for a while before saying, "On the way back, I heard from several ladies in the palace that the child of the Seventh Princess has passed away..."
It's been a month, and they haven't heard anything at all. Come to think of it, it was Nangong Yan who did not allow the people in Yanjing City to spread the news, after all, it was the pain of losing a child, and the people were afraid that they would be killed if they passed it on.
"How did you die?"
Yan Shiqing's face immediately changed, and his brows furrowed tightly.
"It seems that I have been holding it in my stomach for too long, and I heard that I was born for a day and a night." Lin Chaoge said, the horror on his face still not faded for half a minute.
"Pity the seventh sister." Yan Shiqing listened, and he also had palpitations, this is Yu Qiqi's first child.
"Fortunately, the gift we gave to the little prince didn't have time to be delivered." She knitted a pair of small cotton shoes for the fetus in Yu Qiqi's womb, thinking that he was born in winter and wanted to warm his feet, who would have thought that it would be like this, she stared at the small cotton shoes on the table.
"I heard that Nangong Yan has gone back, and with him by his side, the seventh sister may feel better." Before he returned to Nanzhao, Yu Qiqi always thought about Nangong Yan, and now that such a thing has happened, with Nangong Yan here, it will not be too difficult to think about it.
"That being said, when she gave birth, Nangong Yan was never by her side, and I don't know if she would feel uncomfortable?"
Lin Chaoge's words were filled with a rich sigh.
The woman is most afraid that when she gives birth, her husband is not by her side, which will make her feel empty in her heart.
"I don't know the reason for this, it's just that this is the matter of the seventh sister and Nangong Yan, and it's not good for us to ask too much."
With the lessons learned from the previous times, he didn't dare to meddle in Yu Qiqi's affairs easily, for fear that Nangong Yan would misunderstand.
Lin Chaoge listened to it and nodded, he could not interfere in Yu Qiqi's affairs too deeply, and it was also what she was looking forward to, so it was not good to say anything more.
It was Du Wanrong's maid who came over, "Shizi, madam, the old lady is in trouble, you go over and help." She leaned over and said.
"What's going on?"
Yan Shiqing and Lin Chaoge walked out and asked the maid who came to report the news.
"Concubine Yi Niangniang and the grandmother's wife don't know where to get the news, I heard that the prince and the old lady suffered a loss at the emperor's birthday banquet, and they have to apologize to the prince and the lady, and the two of them can't hold it back." The maid said anxiously.
Yan Shiqing frowned, but he just apologized, what couldn't be stopped, but when he got to Du Wanrong, he knew why he couldn't hold it.
Wu Lian and Yi Concubine both held a cup of tea in their hands, knelt in front of Yan Churan and Du Wanrong, begged them to drink the tea they apologized for, and punished them to kneel in the garden for a day, so they refused to stop.
Du Wanrong had never seen such a thing, and seeing that Yan Churan was not easy to speak, she immediately called the maid to call Yan Shiqing over, and they could only listen to what he said in front of these two women.
"Qing'er, come and stop them."
Seeing him, Du Wanrong seemed to have caught a savior.
"Mother, grandmother, what are you doing here?" Yan Shiqing hurriedly ran in to help them up, but Lin Chaoge ran in after him and stretched out his hand to help.
"Qing'er, you came just in time, you persuade your father and mother, let them drink our tea, and let us kneel for another day, so that the sins in our hearts can be reduced." Mai Lian said as she took his hand.
Yan Shiqing had a cold face, "Where did you come from?" For Yan Churan and Du Wanrong, they didn't do anything too much, they just stood by their bodies in Yan Wang's Mansion with this embarrassing identity.
"If it weren't for me and my mother living in the house, your father... The prince's previous affairs with me will not be used to make a big fuss about the emperor's birthday banquet, this matter has always been caused by us. Concubine Yi looked at him and said apologetically.
Yan Churan's face was full of embarrassment, from the two of them appeared to the present, he hadn't said a word, at this moment, he couldn't help but open his mouth, "Yi'er, you help your mother up first, Rong'er and I won't take this tea." The original incident has passed, even if it is now used by the five princes to make a fuss, you can't be blamed, you and your mother don't blame yourself. ”
"Lord Wang..."
Concubine Yi was stunned, it wasn't that she didn't expect Yan Churan to say this, but this was the first time he had expressed his heart since she appeared in front of him again, which made her feel stunned.
"Father is right, mother, you and grandmother hurry up, don't say those words that are not punished, this matter has nothing to do with you."
Yan Shiqing took the opportunity to help the two of them up from the ground, and Lin Chaoge helped hold them.
"Qing'er, help your mother and grandmother back to rest." In the end, Yan Churan settled the matter. Wu Lian wanted to say something more, but after glancing at their expressions, she felt that it was in vain to say it, so she turned around and walked out of Du Wanrong's room.
As soon as they left, Du Wanrong breathed a sigh of relief.
"You're scared."
Yan Churan stretched out his hand and shook her cold palm.
Du Wanrong was stunned for a moment, and a smile appeared on the corner of her lips, "It's not in the way, it's just right, and it also makes me hear what I've always wanted to hear." She was referring to what he had just said.
Yan Churan smiled at her, and the relief between her eyebrows and eyes was clear.
Concubine Yi followed Yan Shiqing back, but her heart was empty, and she no longer expected anything, but when she heard Yan Churan say those words, she couldn't help but feel empty in her heart, as if something she had always thought belonged to her had already been taken away by others.
Seeing her distracted, Yan Shiqing clenched her hand, she raised her eyes to look at him, and a smile appeared on her face.
......
Although Tang Yiyi's face was scratched, Ah Jian didn't want to stop like that, she always wanted to seize an opportunity to transport Tang Yiyi out of the palace unconsciously.
But that girl is not a vegetarian, knowing that Ah Jian is attentive to herself, she always stares at herself, she doesn't even move half a step away from Nangong Yan's side, and she is stunned to not let her seize the opportunity.
On several occasions, Ah Jian could only raise his fist at her from a distance, but she grimaced at her, not afraid of her at all.
"It's worthy of being mixed up in the royal family, and this guts is bigger than the average girl." She tugged at the petals in her hand for a moment.
"You're still staring at her?"
A cold and familiar voice came into her ears, making her turn her head suddenly, the person standing in front of her was Chu Peiyu, "As long as she is in the palace for a day, I will stare at her for a day." She took her hand and gestured it in front of her eyes.
"Let me tell you the truth, even if you get her away, the emperor will get her back." Chu Peiyu sat on the guardrail and looked at her.
"Why?!"
She threw away the almost torn flower bones in her hand and stood up with a "rub".
"How can there be why, the emperor has left her in the palace for so many days, if you suddenly get someone away, why won't he go to look for it?" Chu Peiyu said indifferently, as if it wasn't a big deal.
But in the eyes of Ah Jian, this is really a big deal, "How can the emperor be like this?" It's just a face that looks exactly the same as Green Yin, as for it? ”
"The emperor's mind is not something you can easily guess." In fact, he also knew it in his heart, but who called Nangong Yan the emperor, the decisions he made would never be swayed by others.
"What about our princess? Where did he put our princess? Ah Jian asked him sullenly.
Suddenly, a burst of anger welled up on her face, "No wonder he hasn't gone to look for our princess for so long, he must have been messing with her a long time ago!" ”
As she spoke, she couldn't hold back any longer, so she was about to run to catch Tang Yiyi outside the imperial study outside the palace.
"Don't be so impulsive, the emperor and her have nothing to do at all." Chu Peiyu pursed his lips and stopped her, his palm tightly imprisoned her.
"How do you know what's nothing?! The two of them are not in your sight all the time. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.
"I've been by the emperor's side for so many years, if there's really anything, I can see it at a glance." He said in a low voice.
Ah Jian thought about it carefully and felt that he had a point, but after thinking about it, he still felt that something was wrong, so he ripped his hand off, "No, I'm still not at ease." ”
"Don't worry about what?"
Suddenly, Yu Qiqi's voice came from behind him.
Ah Jian's body stiffened when she was about to walk forward, Yu Qiqi hadn't been out of the door of Fengluan Palace for many days, and she didn't think that she would suddenly come out today, she hurriedly turned around and stepped forward and replied: "It's nothing, it's nothing." Princess, it's cold and humid outside, so you'd better go back to your bedroom and rest. As she spoke, she was about to pull her back.
"You still know that you have to come to me to serve, I see that you have not been in Fengluan Palace all this time, I didn't expect to come here?" Yu Qiqi pretended to be yin and yang and said weirdly.
"Ah Jian knows it's wrong, so I'll go back and serve you." She desperately wanted to pull her back, but the little Jiujiu in her heart had already been seen by her.
"Okay, don't stop me, I want to go over and see what kind of person made you stop me so desperately, even Zhao Niang hid it and didn't let me see it."
Yu Qiqi took her hand and walked towards the door of the imperial study.
