Changle got the news of Taoyao Palace, and the tea cup in her hand immediately became unstable, her fingers trembled slightly, and even her expression was a little distorted, "You just said...... The emperor suddenly fainted...... What does it mean......"

Yi Xiang bowed her head respectfully, stood aside and whispered, "It's something that happened in the queen's palace." The emperor had been in a coma for most of the night, so he handed over the news, saying that he had just woken up. ”

Changle's eyes were red and bloodshot, he looked at Yixiang and said hoarsely, "Do you know why the emperor suddenly fainted?" ”

Yi Xiang thought about it slightly, but she was full of sadness, "The slave just heard from the imperial doctor that the emperor has a lung infection......

"What......" Changle was shocked when he heard this, trembling and speechless.

Seeing this, Yixiang hurriedly persuaded gently, "Don't worry, it's not a big deal, the doctor said that careful conditioning will recover." ”

Changle's eyebrows twisted and twisted, and he suddenly pursed his lips, and said in a deep voice, "The lungs are a serious disease, and they should not be underestimated." In the past, the elder brother of the palace was also a lung, and he invited the imperial doctor in the palace to see, and they all said that they were fine, took the medicine on time, and carefully regulated, but unfortunately it was to no avail in the end. ”

When Yixiang heard this, even her face changed, "Niangniang, this ......"

Changle's gaze was like an abyss, making it impossible to see her true expression, she pondered, and suddenly said in a loud voice, "If the emperor dies suddenly, Yun Heng of this palace is still young, how can he inherit the great cause?" The eldest prince is only twelve years old, and without the support of his mother's family, the emperor has no prince, and it is difficult to ascend to the throne, so there is only ...... King Gangneung......"

Yixiang was so frightened that her whole body trembled, and immediately said, "Niangniang can't say that, the emperor is the Son of Heaven, and the Buddha will protect him, so he will be safe." ”

Changle glanced at her dissatisfied, and his voice was fierce, "What are you shouting?" This palace just mentioned it, and you're already like this, what is this like?! ”

Yixiang immediately bowed her head, "Niangniang is angry, the slave didn't mean it." ”

Changle frowned and thought for a moment, then Fang said loudly, "Go, go to Taoyao Palace, help this palace keep an eye on it, and come back and tell this palace immediately if there is any news." ”

Yi Xiang didn't dare to hesitate, so she had to reply respectfully, "Yes." ”

Ronghua Hall got Cheng Dehai to pass the word, Zhong Yuxiu couldn't sit still for a moment, and hurriedly went to Mingde Palace.

Yuxiu had just walked to the bottom of the porch, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a moon-white figure standing not far away.

Chu Ying stood alone, frowning, staring straight into the hall, with a pair of eyes hiding the gloomy ups and downs of his heart.

Yuxiu's heart moved, and she suddenly slowed down, she stepped forward silently, and deliberately amplified her voice a little bit, "Alas, this queen is very affectionate to the emperor......

Speaking of this, Yuxiu deliberately glanced at Chu Ying, and saw that his face gradually turned pale, and couldn't help but sneer and said, "It is said that the emperor and queen are deeply in love, and this palace looks at it, although it is not happy in my heart, it is true, who called her the queen, she is the emperor's wife, and this palace is not comparable." The palace does not have that blessing, so he can only wait for the emperor to wake up before he can take a look at it. Don't look at the queen's mother, who is usually lukewarm to the emperor, this accident is more anxious than anyone else......"

Chu Ying couldn't bear it anymore, and finally said coldly, "The emperor just woke up, and Concubine Shuniang is still talking about such cool things here, which is inevitably too mean." ”

"Ouch, it turns out that the prince is also here." Yuxiu's eyes fell, and she said politely, "What this palace says is the truth, the queen mother is the same as us, but she is just worried about the emperor." ”

As he was talking, He Sheng suddenly came out and said to Zhong Yuxiu, "Concubine Shu, the emperor has summoned you in." ”

Yuxiu was overjoyed when she heard this, straightened the golden hairpin on her sideburns, and said with a smile, "Then the palace will go first to see the emperor." ”

After saying that, she helped Jiang Xin, sneered coldly, and walked away from Chu Ying's side.

Entering the palace, Yu Xiu was just about to go to the emperor's side with Jiaojiao, when she suddenly saw Shen Changan walking out of the inner hall, she was immediately startled, and blessed her body and said, "The concubine asks the queen for peace." ”

"Sit down." Chang'an had a peaceful look on his face, and sat sideways beside Chu Luo.

Yuxiu's face was stunned, standing in place, not knowing where to sit, after a while, a trace of tears suddenly flashed in the corners of her eyes, stepped forward to grab the emperor's hand, and said earnestly, "Your Majesty, you are scared to death of the concubine, how is it now, is there anything else?" ”

"I'm fine." Chu Luo's tone was extremely light, and his face was even more indifferent without a trace of expression.

Yuxiu's heart twitched when she heard this, she raised her head, and met Shang Chang'an's cold gaze, a complicated look flashed on her face, and she quickly stood up and said, "Since the emperor is fine, the concubine is relieved." ”

Chang'an lowered his eyes shallowly, but his tone was extremely gentle, "Then Concubine Shu will go back to the palace first." ”

Yuxiu secretly gritted her teeth and burst out with a word, "Yes." ”

Chang'an looked at Zhong Yuxiu's departing back, and as soon as he looked back, he met Chu Luo's gaze, and the two of them looked at each other and smiled.

At night, Chang'an came out of the Mingde Palace, and as soon as he walked down the steps, he saw Chu Ying at a glance.

Chang'an's heart jumped suddenly, and he wanted to pretend to ignore and bypass him, but he heard a call from behind him, "Queen Mother." ”

The Queen's Mother.

It's been a long time since she's heard Chu Ying call her like this. In those days when they were with each other, he always called her name, Chang'an. Such an unfamiliar name seems to go back to a time when they were not familiar with it many years ago. At that time, she was not a queen, so he called her "Guifei Niangniang".

Chang'an's eyes froze, she looked at him, Chu Ying's eyebrows were pure and introverted, and the curvature of the corners of her lips was so cold that it made people feel desolate, Chang'an's heart softened, and she couldn't help but say, "Lord Wang." ”

Chu Ying smiled lightly, his eyes flashed with a dark light, and there was a sudden feeling of disappointment in his tone, "I'll go see the imperial brother." ”

"Okay." She responded gently, but as far as the eye could see, his sad and tired face.

Finally, without another word, he slowly walked away from her side.

At this moment, Chang'an suddenly felt that he had failed Chu Ying.

But she didn't do anything wrong, from beginning to end, the person she loved was not always Chu Luo.

At this moment, Chang'an looked at Chu Ying's back, and tears slipped down from the corners of his eyes.

After so many years, she and Chu Luo are actually the same people. Guarding that heavy memory, trying to find a way forward from the beauty of the past.

They all ignore one point.

Shen Changle was never Shen Changan, and Chu Ying was never Chu Luo.

Flowers bloom from time to time, and people are no longer young.

Chu Luo's body was completely restored in December of the fifteenth year of Yongchang, and as the new year approached, there were more things in the palace. In these days, the relationship between Chang'an and Chu Luo has also eased slightly, and when they get along, they really have a feeling of respecting each other, and the piano is harmonious. Shen Zhaorong of Xiangyi Hall had just given birth and could not sleep, and because the emperor was sick, he was gradually left out in the cold. In the harem, peace was temporarily restored.

After Chinese New Year's Eve, there was another good news in the palace - Concubine De Zhou Ruohua was happy.

Concubine De was happy again, and Chang'an was not surprised. She has always been plain, not fighting or grabbing, and she is different from these grandiose and secretly fighting women in the harem, so she has more grace than others.

Compared with the young and delicate women in the palace, Zhou Ruohua is thirty-one years old, and she is no longer young in the end. She was pregnant again, and inadvertently mentioned the idea of the older generation of concubines in the palace competing for favor. Cold smoke and evening incense are also often mentioned in Chang'an's ears, so that she carefully adjusts her body and prepares for another heir. Whenever he heard this, Chang'an just smiled slightly, but he didn't realize it.

Her health has never been very good, and now she is thirty-four years old, and it is not easy to get pregnant again. Moreover, since Yun Jing's death, her state of mind suddenly calmed down, only guarding Yun Ke, watching him grow up day by day, learning to ride a horse and make a sword, as if life should also be content.

In these things, today's Shen Changan is very much like Zhao Nanyan. Nanyan has been unfavored for half his life, but he also looks down on these a lot. When Chang'an first met Zhao Nanyan, she was not what she is now. Because of her humble background, she endured humiliation and burden, but she also had the heart to compete for everything. But since Zihan was born, she has changed a lot. A few years ago, Chang'an often saw her walking around the palace, but after all these years, Zihan, as the emperor's eldest daughter, has turned sixteen years old this year, and it stands to reason that she has also reached the age of leaving the cabinet. But Nanyan only has Zihan such a daughter, and the emperor inevitably takes care of the old feelings, so he left Zihan by Nanyan's side.

However, this kind of stability, in this harem where people's hearts are fluctuating, is only temporary after all.

In the spring, Changxuan followed Zhu Zheng into the palace to visit Chang'an.

Chang'an hadn't seen Chang Xuan for a few days, her complexion was more ruddy, and her figure was plump. ”

Chang'an smiled, hurriedly asked Wanxiang to help her up, and said warmly, "They are all sisters, so there is no need to be polite." ”

Chang Xuan smiled kindly, stepped forward gently, held Chang'an's hand, and said softly, "Eldest sister, I came today to bring you good news." ”

Chang'an smiled slightly, "What?" ”

Chang Xuan slapped his palm lightly twice, and then a man with a beautiful face walked in, knelt down and said, "Xiaguan Xu Zhiyuan greets the queen." ”

Chang An was slightly stunned, and said with a smile, "This is ......"

"This is the husband's family selected for Aunt Hanyan next to the eldest sister." Chang Xuan smiled and said, "I brought someone over for the eldest sister today, how about the eldest sister?" ”

As he spoke, Chang Xuan gently approached Chang'an's side, lowered her voice a little and said, "Eldest sister, this is the county lieutenant of Xu County in Luoyang's Qianhe District, who is also from a poor background, but he is hard to study, and he is promoted in one day. His conduct is well-known in the city, and he is a rare clean official. Besides, there is no wife room at home, so it is perfect for Aunt Hanyan to be allowed. What does the eldest sister think? ”

Chang'an looked at him for a moment, and smiled softly, "What's the use of this palace?" Don't you have to ask Hanyan to take a look for yourself? With that, she turned her head and called for the evening fragrance, "Go and call the cold smoke." ”

After a while, Hanyan came with a beaming face. As soon as she entered the hall and saw that there were outsiders inside, she immediately blushed, and she also understood what Fang Cai Wanxiang meant, so she called in a low voice, "Queen Mother." ”

Chang An sighed with a smile and said, "I've come to see Lord Xu." ”

Han Yan slowly stepped forward and said warmly, "Lord Xu." ”

Xu Zhiyuan immediately gave up his hand, "I've seen the girl Hanyan." ”

Chang'an watched the two go back and forth, and couldn't help but smile gently.

She can trust Chang Xuan, and she can also trust the people she found. Han Yan has been by her side for seventeen years, like a sister, if she doesn't find a home for her, even Chang'an himself feels sorry. Now that the world is settled and the turmoil is calm, she has to plan well for the people around her.
