Gu Yan responded respectfully, Wei Le didn't say a word, and arched his hand silently.

He couldn't understand the thoughts of this young emperor anymore, and handed over Fang Hua's death to Gu Yan to investigate, did he mean to leave it alone?

Although Wei Le thought so, he never dared to say it.

He had a feeling that this emperor was no longer what he was when he first ascended the throne.

Gu Yan stood on the side, his eyes lowered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"If Aiqing is fine, then go down."

The Emperor said with a smile.

Qin Ran was about to leave with Gu Yanweile, but was stopped by the emperor.

"Qin Aiqing stays, I still have something to tell you."

Gu Yan glanced at Qin Ran deeply and left.

The high palace gate opened, and the dazzling appearance rushed straight into the eyes of the people. Gu Yan reflexively narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyelids tingled slightly.

……

Qin Ran turned around and walked towards the emperor without saluting.

"Your Majesty." The tone of his voice became more and more cold, and the emperor naturally thought that Qin Ran was jealous.

So, he coaxed with a good temper.

"What's wrong? My Xiao Ran is jealous? ”

As he spoke, he also stepped down from the dragon chair and happened to walk to Qin Ran's side. His hand pressed on Qin Ran's shoulder and said in a gentle tone.

"Concubine Yun is a member of the Shang Shu Ling family, and if I want to consolidate my power, I must get the support of the Shang Shu Ling family."

Qin Ran originally turned around and didn't look at him, looking like a jealous little girl.

But when she heard the Emperor's words, she turned her head sharply.

"Shang Shuling?"

"That's right, I know that you don't agree with Shang Shuling, but I want to protect you forever, and these things are a last resort."

Qin Ran sneered in her heart, if she had been in the past, she might have believed these words.

The emperor continued, he didn't see Qin Ran's face change.

"Xiao Ran, believe me, I will only marry you as my queen."

Qin Ran came back to her senses, she nodded slowly, and said.

"As long as Brother Yi Chuan has Xiao Ran in his heart, Xiao Ran will believe in Brother Yi Chuan."

The emperor hugged Qin Ran into his arms and buried his head in her neck.

"Xiao Ran, believe in me, I will live up to you."

Qin Ran instinctively wanted to struggle, but he forcibly suppressed it.

Now, she can't help herself, can she only follow the trajectory of her previous life, and go on like this?

No, she didn't want to.

The emperor hugged him for a while, and Qin Ran stood awkwardly. After a long time, the emperor finally let go of her and said to her.

"It's going to be the garden party of the new science and technology jinshi in a few days, do you want to come and see it?"

"The garden party of the new science and technology jinshi?" Qin Ran's eyes lit up, "You see I'm too confused, I forgot that it was the imperial examination some time ago, such a feast, how could I not join in the fun?" ”

"I knew you liked it."

The emperor doted on Qin Ran's forehead, and Lang laughed.

Qin Ran spoke to the emperor for a while before leaving.

Qin Ran walked within the palace walls, and he didn't let others follow. She walked slowly along the palace wall, and the sunlight leaked in through the palace wall, scattering into mottled shadows.

"I've seen General Qin."

Qin Ran's thoughts were interrupted by a crisp voice, and she raised her eyes to look at the woman in front of her.

The woman was wearing a palace maid-style dress, but the clothes were gorgeous, and it seemed that she was not an ordinary palace maid.

Qin Ran asked, "Are you?" ”

"The slave maid Xinyan is Princess Jiayang's personal maidservant. The princess invited the general to Huayang Palace for a gathering. ”

Xinyan blessed the body, and the eyebrows were obedient.

"Jiayang?"

Qin Ran laughed, how could she forget that there was still Jiayang, the ghostly little princess, still in the palace.

"General, please come with the slaves."

Xinyan bowed, made a way, and motioned for Qin Ran to go first.

The two walked forward, Qin Ran was still excited, and Xinyan was still that dignified and solemn appearance, she couldn't help but ask.

"How is Jiayang doing?"

"The princess is fine, but I haven't seen the general for a long time, and I'm worried about it."

Xinyan replied.

"I've been busy lately, and Jiayang is going to annoy me now."

Xinyan smiled at the corner of his eyes, pursed his lips, and was silent.

The two talked casually, and soon arrived at Huayang Palace, Xinyan and Qin Ran had just entered the door, and they saw a pink-clothed figure appear in front of Qin Ran.

"Sister Ran."

Qin Ran was not surprised, and responded with a smile.

The woman in front of her was only eleven or twelve years old, and she was delicate and cute, with a childish spirit that had not yet grown. She was wearing a pink and white Luo skirt, and her whole person looked very energetic.

"Sister Ran, you haven't come to see Jiayang for a long time, and the imperial brother won't let me go out of the palace, I'm about to be suffocated here."

Jiayang hugged Qin Ran's arm, his brows furrowed, and he looked pitiful and cute.

Qin Ran looked at Jiayang in front of him, feeling a little bitter in his heart.

In her previous life, she had already gone to the border of Tianhe City, and at that time she heard the news from Beijing that the Duke of Jiayang was going to make peace, and the kings of that country were already over half a hundred years old, and poor Jiayang was only sixteen or seventeen years old.

Qin Ran couldn't do anything at all, he could only watch Jiayang step into the abyss.

But in the end, less than a year after Jiayang got married, he fell ill and died.

Qin Ran withdrew from his memories and looked at the delicate smiling and coquettish girl in front of him, and couldn't help but have some tears in his eyes.

"Jiayang..."

Jiayang couldn't help but be frightened when he saw that Qin Ran was about to cry.

She hurriedly pulled Qin Ran's sleeve and asked worriedly.

"Sister Ran, what's wrong with you, is someone bullying you, Jiayang is going to give you anger!"

Jiayang had a calf-protecting expression on his face, and Qin Ran couldn't help but be amused.

"I'm fine, I'm just happy to see Jiayang."

When Jiayang heard this, his eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile. However, the lips are still unforgiving.

"Then you have to come into the palace to see me more, without you to accompany me, I am about to be bored."

Jiayang took Qin Ran's hand and walked towards the inner hall.

"Xinyan, I want to talk to Sister Ran, so you don't have to come in and serve."

"Yes, Your Highness Princess."

Jiayang and Qin Ran sat in the inner hall, and the hall was still in memory, with all kinds of gadgets filled with wooden shelves.

"Sister Ran, do you know that the imperial brother can now pamper the newly canonized Concubine Yun?" 
Jiayang took a sip of tea and said to Qin Ran with an uneven face. Then, before Qin Ran could reply, he continued.

"She was gentle and polite to me, but I just didn't like her. Sister Ran," as she spoke, Jiayang took Qin Ran's hand, "I think she is definitely not what she seems, you have to be careful." ”

"Don't worry, I'll be fine."

Qin Ran's heart was sweet, in this life, she would never let Jiayang be like the previous life.
