"What am I doing to be stupid to my sister?" Lan Qi didn't care very much, pulled Bu Guiren to sit down on the side, and said confidently and calmly, "What can she do to me, if I have any mistakes, the emperor will easily give up?" Even if she really harms me something, the emperor will definitely not let her go, why should she dig her own grave? As long as the emperor is here, no one can hurt me, and even if he is injured, he will call the shots. But if I go toe-to-toe with them and play tricks against them, the emperor should be disgusted. I don't care what they think of me, I care what the emperor thinks of me, suffering is a blessing, isn't that the truth? ”

Seeing that she was calm, Bu Guiren was also relieved, and just smiled: "Then you can't always suffer." ”

Lan Qi said proudly: "When did my sister see that I suffered a loss, didn't it just that all the benefits belonged to me, so that others were anxious?" I also know the ugly words in the palace, in fact, they are really worried, and I can't be young all my life, ten or twenty years later, who knows what the situation is, in Yingtai The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager took turns to reason with me, or they could see through. ”

"But according to what you say, if the emperor empathizes with you in the future, or treats you like he does to Rong Concubine Duan now, will he still protect you?" When Bu Guiren thought of this sentence, it was inevitably desolate when he said it, "One day you will no longer be favored, they will bully you, who will call the shots for you?" Or maybe you're not favored, and they don't bother to bully you. ”

"Sister's words are really reasonable, I look at the good in front of me, and I am confident that the emperor will hold me on the tip of my heart, he is fearless, but one day he fell out of favor and was disliked, and now what he said has become a joke." Xu is pregnant, and her emotions are easily affected, Lan Qi's face is slightly gloomy, leaning to the side, holding one hand against her head, slowly recalling the past seven years.

Bu Guiren sat next to her, secretly regretting that he shouldn't have said such a thing, obviously now is the best time, why bother thinking about the future.

But Lan Qi thought quietly, remembering Xuan Ye and her bits and pieces, remembering what Xuan Ye had said to her, and remembering the eight-character imperial order in the brocade box, she was immediately relieved, smiled brightly again, and said to Bu Guiren: "I muttered these words to the emperor earlier, and the emperor said that I was thinking blindly, and even said to me, don't think about the next few decades, haven't you ever thought about the present?" The important thing is to live the days in front of you. Anyway, there was nothing in the past, and it was a big deal to return to dullness after twenty years, so we sisters just had to take care of it, and just live a life of fine clothes and food. ”

Bu Guiren Wan'er: "You are good-natured and broad-minded, I feel at ease if you think so." ”

At this time, Duan Jing led Yinzuo back again, the sixth elder brother fell softly in his mother's arms, listening to Duanjing's sister chattering, my sister said that it was Yinzhen's birthday, she was going to send something to her younger brother, Yinzuo seemed to understand and listened, and from time to time vaguely responded to a few words, Duan Jing happily rubbed his younger brother and said: "Yinzuo is the most well-behaved, where is it like Yinzhi, and he fights with us all day long." ”

But Yinzuo was very uncomfortable being rubbed by her sister like this, and she didn't understand what her sister said, so she held her mouth and started to cry, which scared Duan Jing, which made Lan Qi and Bu Guiren very happy, and after talking and laughing for a while, Duan Concubine sent someone to ask Princess Duanjing and Bu Guiren if they went back to finish their meal, and the mother and son left.

After Yinzuo was also taken away by the nurse, the room was quiet, Lan Qi breathed a sigh of relief, Huan Chun brought a coat to wrap her, opened the window for ventilation, and added a new charcoal basin, Lan Qi saw that the charcoal basin was full of red basket charcoal, and smiled: "I also said that I saved money and saved money, how do you use red basket charcoal in the charcoal pot, shouldn't you save it in the winter hand stove?" It's about to be replaced, and the black charcoal is also warm, which is all white flowers. I don't use it enough when I turn around, and I can't buy it myself? ”

Yu Kui happened to bring the little eunuch in with a basket of red charcoal, and when she heard the master say this, she sighed: "Niangniang is really stingy, you have to take care of this, you have a cold and cough these days, and you are most afraid of the smell of smoke, where can you use black charcoal?" These are the slaves and maids who have saved up on weekdays, and there is nowhere to put them, and the new ones are coming again, and the queen mother, the queen mother, and the emperor are constantly moving in, and then go down, let's not talk about buying our own silver, it's time to open a shop and sell it, which lady in the palace is not enough, come to us It's cheaper. ”

Hearing these words, the little eunuch who was carrying charcoal laughed, and Lan Qi shouted for Huanchun to twist her ears, and said angrily: "Which one is the master in Yonghe Palace, seeing that you are wasted, I can't say anything?" ”

Huan Chun helped Yu Kui and said: "What matters is your body, Mama Su Mala has come to instruct, saying that it is important that you are pregnant, you don't have to be too rigid about the rules, everything must be used well, you are reluctant to burn a few baskets of charcoal, and it should be a joke when you say it." ”

Lan Qi was still distressed, watching the charcoal burn scarlet, and muttering: "What a waste, it's really good to sell it, and there will be red envelopes and silver for the New Year this year." ”

As a result, Huanchun and Yukui were laughed at, saying that the red envelope was coming, and Huanchun reminded the master: "The fourth elder brother is about to have a birthday, do you want to send something over?" The slave maid heard Qinglian say that many nobles often came to inquire about what the concubine Niangniang or the fourth elder brother liked, and said that they were going to seal the six palaces, and they were all in a hurry to tie up the concubine Niangniang. ”

"Concubine?" Lan Qi thought it was funny, everyone in the palace was afraid that the concubine had a bad temper, it was too late to hide before, and there was nowhere to work if she wanted to, why did they all take the initiative to send it to the door one by one now?

Huan Chun said with a smile: "It is said that the concubine is going to be the queen's mother, can you not stutter?" ”

"And such legends?" Lan Qi smiled lightly, she knew in her heart that it was impossible, but it was inconvenient to speak.

However, Huanchun is not talking nonsense, such rumors have been wandering in the palace for a long time, and they are roughly divided into two factions, one side feels that the concubine must be the master of Kunning Palace, and on the other hand, he feels that the emperor has no heart to stand up, but even Tong Guifei herself can't figure out what the future will be, and Tong Guowei didn't understand it when he entered the palace that day, maybe the people of the Tong family finally want to fight for the position of the middle palace from the emperor.

But now this situation, it depends on whether Concubine Tong can be crowned, not who competes with her for the posterior position, compared to the past when Concubine Tong and Concubine Tong were on the opposite side, there is a lot less excitement, as for the concubines and concubines, they don't dare to think about the posterior, this time they can keep the position of the fourth concubine, it is their greatest wish.

And said that the next day in the Changchun Palace to see the Jue Chan, Yi Concubine came early to wait, until nearly noon when the impatience, there was movement at the door, Baoyun said that Jue Chan is often here, Hui Concubine glanced at Yi Concubine, the latter smiled and said to Baoyun: "Taohong did not come in Yikun Palace, it is in the New Year I want to dedicate to the Empress Dowager hand-embroidered longevity screen, Sister Hui said that your needlework is also excellent, at this time we sisters do not need you to serve, you go to Yikun Palace to help Taohong." ”

Baoyun knew that they wanted to drive themselves away, and if they didn't go, they would be embarrassed, so they agreed obediently, anyway, she was not the only one in the eyes of the Empress Dowager in Changchun Palace.

When I went out, I saw Juezen often coming in, a woman who was so thin that she lost her light, even if she was wearing beautiful jewelry and clothes, she didn't have the style of the past, Baoyun thought to herself, what else could such a woman help? But where can she have the hearts of concubines and concubines, she naturally can't guess.

This Changchun Palace, Jue Chan is still the first time to come back, walking all the way without squinting, not caring about taking a look at the decoration in the palace at all, to say that she has lived in Xianfu Palace for so long, and has hardly been to places other than the dormitory, or in the past when she was in Yikun Palace, she was called by Yi Concubine Guo Guiren as a palace maid, and the corners and corners were gone.

Entering the door and seeing the two of them sitting on the top, Jue Chan saluted respectfully, got up and saw the rose-red clothes on Yi Concubine's body, and her heart jumped, Yi Concubine was actually wearing the clothes she had made for her, the hem was pressed with gold thread and black piping, or cut it from the bag that Guo Guiren used to hold the Dao talisman that cursed him, and his heart was secretly cold, and he sat aside according to their words.

When Yi Concubine saw Juechan's current appearance, she sighed: "You are actually emaciated like this? I'm still waiting to see you come in, my eyes light up, good sister, why do you bother to lose your beauty? Is life good in Xianfu Palace, do you want to go back to Yikun Palace? ”

Jue Chan smiled lightly: "The concubine is not a little beautiful, if it is really as the mother said, I am afraid that I will not be able to live for a long time." ”

Yi Concubine was robbed of white, her face was very ugly, and Hui Concubine persuaded on the side: "It's your former lordship, can't you speak politely?" Okay, let's not stay longer, let's get straight to the point, you have thought about it all night, what do you have to do now to attract the attention of the saints? ”

Yi Concubine also coughed dryly: "Sister, if you can help me, I will definitely not treat you badly in the future." ”

Jue Chan didn't care at all, he looked straight ahead, and didn't look at their faces, as if he wasn't talking to them, and said to himself: "The ladies want to attract the emperor's attention, and the concubines have thought about it all night, and now there are two things that you two can do." One came to the harem a few days ago, saying that the emperor was angry about corrupt officials and sentenced him to hanging and prison, which is a big punishment, which shows the emperor's disgust for corruption and bribery. There must be such a thing in the six palaces, there is no lack of bribes in the harem to buy and sell officials, if the ladies can find out one or two things, or where there is something unclean in the six palaces, it must be a credit in front of the emperor, Hui Concubine Niangniang has always been in charge of the affairs of the six palaces, it is not difficult to do. ”

Concubine Hui bowed her head and said: "It's easy to check, but this kind of thing needs to be considered in the long run, what else is it?" ”

Jue Chan glanced at the two of them slightly, as if he wanted to see if these two women had the courage, and smiled coldly: "That's the prince." ”

"Prince?" Yi Concubine and Hui Concubine spoke at the same time, looking at each other even more, Yi Concubine said with a tense face, "You are crazy, how can you calculate the prince." ”

Juechan knew that they were not courageous, but he continued: "It's not that you want to calculate the prince, let alone harm the prince, but you know that the emperor cares about the prince the most, what if you can embody the virtue of the two in the prince?" ”
