In the fourth winter of Yongchang, heavy snow fell.

The orange and yellow warm correction of the concubine stopped at the gate of the city, but Shen Changan was the only one who went down.

Li Shushen stood at the door holding Yuzhi's hand, tightening the fur brocade robe on her body, and her voice was also a little trembling, "Shen Guifei, where is the emperor?" ”

Chang'an respectfully blessed his body, with a solemn expression, "The emperor has something to delay on the road, and he will come back in two days." ”

"Why are you ......," the queen frowned slightly, sighed for a while, and turned to command, "That's it." Yuzhi, go tell the Queen Mother and tell her not to wait any longer. ”

Yuzhi led the order. Chang'an was blessed again and left.

The concubines behind the queen were originally huddled together, but when they saw Chang'an coming in, they hurriedly flashed to both sides and made way for them. Chang'an didn't look at any of them, but only got on the sedan chair with the evening incense and returned to the Chonghua Palace.

Before the sedan chair reached the door, Chang'an heard the bustle outside.

"The master is back—"

"It's the master who has returned—"

As soon as Jiao Bao stopped, Xiao Shanzi opened the curtain to welcome Chang An, he wept with a smile and tears, "The master is finally back." ”

Chang'an's heart was touched. As soon as she entered the hall, Han Yan greeted her, handed a gold-painted hand stove to Chang'an's hand, and said with warmth, "The master must be frozen, come in and warm up." ”

Chang'an walked into the hall, and the house was burning with red charcoal, which burned the entire Chonghua Hall warmly. Chang An took off the fox fur cloak, thought about the scene of Fang Cai, and asked casually, "I didn't see Zhao Yuan at the door, I am afraid she will not come out on such a cold day." ”

When Han Yan heard Chang'an mention Zhong Yuxiu, he couldn't help but laugh, and then replied, "The master doesn't know yet, Zhaoyuan Niangniang gave birth last night, and I'm afraid I won't be able to get out of bed today." ”

Chang'an took a sip of hot tea, and when he saw Han Yan's face was happy, there was a slight suspicion in his eyes, "She gave birth to a child, what's so joyful about this?" ”

Hanyan "giggled" twice, lowered his voice and said, "Zhaoyuan Niangniang was born to an emperor." For this matter, she punished many imperial doctors in the imperial hospital, before she was born, they all said that they were princes, but they were not an imperial concubine......" Han Yan said this, and couldn't help but hide his lips and snicker.

Chang'an pursed a warm smile, and also sighed, "Whether it's the emperor, Zhong Zhaoyuan's arrogant and domineering appearance, if he really wins the prince, I don't know how to make waves." ”

"Isn't that the reason?" Han Yan smiled lightly, leaned on Chang'an's side and whispered, "Master, the slave and maid heard that Zhaoyuan Niangniang is very angry, she gave birth to a child, and the emperor is not around, and the emperor doesn't even have a name." She has a big temperament, this morning, the little masters of the six palaces have gone, but she only wants to see the queen's mother......"

When Chang'an heard this, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, but the expression on his face was as light as usual, "Then the palace is going to take a look at her." ”

Han Yan frowned slightly, puzzled, "The master just came back, and he hasn't rested yet, go see what she does?" ”

Chang An straightened his sideburns and said indifferently, "I've rested enough on the road." The palace should go to the Yilan Hall and take a look at Zhaoyuan. ”

In the Yilan Palace, the light perfume is mixed with the newborn breath of a newborn. Before Chang'an walked into the hall, he heard the cry of a child inside, and then Zhong Yuxiu's roar also came.

"The children can't see it well, what are you all doing!"

Chang'an stepped into the hall, looked at her, and said with a faint smile, "You are angry in the confinement, Zhaoyuan can be careful not to hurt her body." ”

Yuxiu looked up and saw that it was Chang'an, and was immediately stunned, "Why are you here?" ”

Chang'an Yi Ning smiled at each other, with a gentle and decent face, "I heard that Zhao Yuan gave birth to an emperor, and this palace came to take a look." After that, she raised her face to the nurse on the side, and said gently, "Bring the emperor to the palace." ”

The nurse who was holding the emperor in her arms looked hesitant, neither daring to disobey the order of the concubine, nor daring to disobey her master. She glanced at Zhong Zhaoyuan, who was sitting on the bed, and walked towards Chang'an step by step.

Chang'an took off the wrist ornament on his hand, gently took the emperor in the nurse's hand, and held her in his arms. The emperor was wrapped in a brocade quilt with splendid flowers, her face was pink and tender, and she couldn't open her eyes. Chang'an looked at her and suddenly felt a sense of joy. She likes children, even if it is Zhong Yuxiu's daughter, she also likes it.

"You haven't picked a name yet, have you?" Chang'an looked at Emperor Ji and asked softly.

"Not yet. Wait for the emperor to come up and get it. After saying that, Yuxiu lowered her eyes slightly, and after a while, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she turned her head and ordered, "Go and invite the emperor to come over." ”

A little palace maid beside her was about to go down, and Chang'an immediately stopped her, "No need." The emperor is not in the palace. ”

When Yuxiu heard this, her heart was shocked, "Didn't the emperor come back with the concubine?" ”

Hearing Yuxiu ask this, Chang'an's heart tightened for a while, she handed the emperor back to the nurse, and said in a solemn tone, "The emperor has delayed important matters, and he will be back in two days." ”

That being said, Chang'an's heart was difficult to guess.

When Chu Luo will come back, she can't make up her mind. If it was because of Yan Ji, it would not be impossible to leave Chu Luo in Lin'an.

Thinking of this, a strong burst of anger surged in Chang'an's heart, burning straight to her heart.

If this is the case, she will definitely not let Song Yanji go.

Chang An glanced at Yuxiu, and saw that she was also full of uneasiness, and suddenly had a plan in her heart, and said with a forced smile, "In the end, it's just a happy event, and there will be one more person in the harem." ”

Yuxiu was shocked when she heard this, her beautiful face turned miserable, and her whole body couldn't stop trembling, "You...... You...... Say what? ”

"The emperor went down to Jiangnan this time, and he took a fancy to a woman, and he will bring her back soon."

"Impossible!"

Yuxiu shook her head vigorously, suppressed the resentment in her heart and suppressed it, and said angrily, "How can a wild girl from the countryside of Lin'an enter the palace?" ”

Yuxiu's sentence was a pun, not only insulting Song Yanji, but also secretly satirizing Shen Changan, Chang'an He couldn't hear the sarcasm in her words, but seeing her angry and trembling, she faintly felt a little angry.

Zhong Yuxiu has not seen Song Yanji and is already angry like this, if the two of them really meet, they don't know what kind of bloody storm they will set off. She is naturally more impatient than Chang'an.

Yuxiu slowed down her breath and looked at Chang'an, and a meaningful sneer suddenly bloomed at the corner of her lips, "The concubine came back so early, and it was also because the emperor got a beautiful woman and left the concubine, right?" ”

In Yuxiu's words, Han Yan was beside her, full of anger, and said angrily, "Niangniang is just Zhaoyuan's position, how can you talk to the concubine Niangniang like this!" ”

Yu Xiu glanced at her, her eyes were cold, "This palace is Zhaoyuan, and you are just a palace maid next to the concubine, what does this palace say, I can't help you to intervene!" ”

Chang An watched coldly as the two had an argument, and couldn't help but say loudly, "Enough!" She turned her head to look at Han Yan, and said intentionally, "Zhaoyuan has just given birth, and she can't stand this anger." ”

Hanyan lowered his head and was silent.

Chang'an looked sideways at Zhong Yuxiu again, and said heavily, "Zhaoyuan, this palace is not here today to argue with you. ”

Zhong Yuxiu snorted coldly, her eyes full of disdain, "I know what Niangniang wants to do." The emperor got a newcomer and snubbed the mother, and the mother was naturally displeased. So let's take a look at the origin of the emperor's concubines here, isn't it to win over the concubines and build a stable position in the palace? ”

When Chang'an heard this, he smiled coldly.

Of course, she hates Song Yanji, but her hatred for Zhong Yuxiu is no less than that of Song Yanji. She was also snubbed because of Zhong Yuxiu, and Yuxiu designed to harm the cold smoke, how could she swallow this breath?

Chang'an, the next tactic in the harem, has always been deeply disdainful. Even if she hates Song Yanji again, she will never borrow Zhong Yuxiu's strength.

What's more, Chu Luo's liking for Song Yanji has long been an irreparable fact.

Chang'an raised his eyes and looked at Zhong Yuxiu indifferently, there was no displeasure on his face, and his voice was clear and firm, "Zhaoyuan don't use your mind on this palace. The palace is worried about the emperor, so I came to take a look, and casually mentioned it to Zhao Yuan, whether Zhao Yuan goes to his heart or not, it has nothing to do with the palace. ”

Chang'an said, looked at each other coldly, and put the wrist ornaments he had just taken off on his hands one by one, with an indisputable expression, "Zhaoyuan has a good rest, and the palace will go back first." ”

Yuxiu lowered her eyes slightly, and a few words burst out of her mouth as if she had restrained great anger, "The concubine sends the concubine Niangniang." ”

Chang'an's face was cold, and he turned to leave. As soon as he walked under the porch, Han Yan caught up and asked, "Master, is what you just said true?" ”

Chang'an raised his eyebrows slightly, "What really?" ”

"That's it...... The emperor likes the things of Jiangnan women......"

Chang An smiled coldly, remembering Chu Luo, his eyes were still full of desolation, "You always have to come to this point, who can escape?" ”

"I don't believe it." Han Yan stubbornly turned his head away, and his voice was astringent, "There must be some misunderstanding in the middle, the emperor will not like others." The emperor loves his master so much, he was like this when he was in the palace, and the emperor has never seen other women. These slaves and maids all see it, and it must be like this. ”

When Chang'an heard this, the tip of her nose was slightly sour, she took Hanyan's hand, and said abruptly, "If you see more, you will naturally understand." What is consistent in feelings? If it's light, it's gone. ”

When he said this, Chang'an's heart was also indescribably painful.

How did it suddenly become like this? How can it be? It's something that even she can't believe.

Chu Luo loved her like that, and suddenly he loved someone else, how could he let her accept it like this? It is also unwilling.

Thinking about it, the snow outside had stopped, and the sky and the earth were gloomy.

The daylight gradually subdued, and a red sunset floated in the sky, shining like thousands of golden arrows. Chang'an raised his head and saw a few swallows flying in front of him, and the swallows murmured and returned.
