"Sit down and listen to me." When the Empress Dowager saw Lan Qi come in, she motioned for her to sit on the side, and Mama Su Mala served tea to everyone, and then led the little palace maid to retreat.

Xuan Ye and his grandmother sat together, their expressions were natural and peaceful, I don't know what Fang just said, which made Concubine Hui so moved and gaffe, she also covered the corners of her eyes at this time, lowered her head and sobbed slightly, but listened to the Empress Dowager said: "Concubine De is here, so I can be a witness, don't say that Xuan Ye and I will not give you an explanation in the future." ”

Concubine Hui hurriedly said: "The concubines don't dare, so they naturally obey the orders of the Empress Dowager and the emperor." ”

Lan Qi didn't know what they were talking about, but she heard the Queen Mother say: "The royal family is not allowed to be questioned and explored, the matter of the eldest brother's poisoning, it will take time to investigate, and the investigation must be investigated, but what is the result, it may not have to be known to outsiders, and day by day it will take time, and there will be a lot of ugly words outside." Concubine De is also here today, just to give Concubine Hui a witness, the emperor and I promised her, and I will give her and the eldest brother an explanation when we find out the truth in the future, but the poisoning in the past two days must have a result first, and there will be people in the imperial dining room to bear it, and it will be settled early, so as not to be criticized by the minister. ”

Lan Qi nodded, knowing that she shouldn't talk nonsense at this moment, so she sat silently and didn't move, while Concubine Hui held back her tears, left her seat and bowed to her head: "Thank you for the grace of the Queen Mother, the concubine and the eldest brother are up to you and the emperor to decide." ”

Looking at her aggrieved and pitiful appearance, Lan Qi remembered what she said to Huanchun last night, at that time she was full of suspicion that Hui Concubine had poisoned herself, but just now in the pantry, she suddenly thought that there was someone else behind Xing, maybe a hand that came in from outside the palace, but no matter what kind of thoughts, it was her guess, there was no evidence, and it was selfishness that swayed her will after all, not to mention that she was still very jealous of Hui Concubine at the moment.

Xuan Ye finally spoke, and said slowly: "Concubine Hui won't disbelieve me and the imperial grandmother, you let Concubine De testify, it's too much to worry." Concubine Hui is the most considerate and stable person, yesterday Yinyu had an accident, and the people in the elder brother's office were at a loss, but fortunately, she was calm, so as not to make a big mess. Although the eldest brother is naughty and refuses to study weekdays, it is not the fault of Hui Concubine, the grandson asked the eldest brother to leave Hui Concubine and live alone in the elder brother's house, and he did not blame Hui Concubine at all, but just wanted Yinhe to concentrate more on studying. ”

The emperor's words, Hui Concubine's face gradually glowed, and her eyes soaked in tears became more and more bright, Lan Qi sighed in her heart, and the Empress Dowager said: "The eldest son of the emperor is very important, and he will be an example for his brothers in the future, Hui Concubine has a good background and good temperament, I am very relieved, but you take Yinyu to the study, after all, Hui Concubine can't hang on her face, you have to do something, so as to block your mouth." ”

However, without waiting for Xuan Ye to speak, Concubine Hui kowtowed first and said: "The concubine doesn't want anything, it is his blessing that the emperor cares about Yinyu, and it is also the blessing of the concubine, why can't the concubine have a face on her face, if you say what the emperor does for the concubine, it is better to let the concubine do something for the emperor." At present, Juechan is often pregnant with the emperor's heir, but he still lives alone in a secluded place, where it was the palace where the nobles of Nala lived, and the concubine always felt that it was inappropriate, since the eldest brother did not live with the concubine, the place was very spacious, and the concubine was willing to take the sister of Juechan over, she was pregnant for the first time, and she didn't understand many things, and no one could take care of her. ”

Lan Qi chuckled in her heart, Hui Concubine was really not simple, and suddenly remembered the voice of the Rijue Zen clan in her ears, although she refused, but the heart of sympathy for her was still there, but in this situation, she had no position to speak, only to wait and see.

The Empress Dowager and the Emperor didn't seem to expect that the topic would suddenly involve the Juechan clan, and there was no reaction for a while, and Concubine Hui continued: "The moon cake sister with poisonous mushrooms also found a box there, how dangerous it is, the palace maids around her are too young, they must not know how to take care of pregnant women, and the concubines don't have to take care of Yinyu now, and they are idle when they are idle, and they want to ask the Empress Dowager and the emperor for their lives, and take good care of the princess and the emperor." ”

The Empress Dowager glanced at Xuan Ye, but found that Xuan Ye was looking at Lan Qi, and Lan Qi was looking at Hui Concubine for a moment, everyone had a tangled look on their faces, and when she was about to speak, Xuan Ye quickly retracted her gaze and said to Hui Concubine: "I am very pleased with your kindness, if only everyone was like you." Now you don't have to take care of Yinzhi, the affairs of the sixth palace have always been in charge of you and Rong Concubine, Yinzhi has become more and more naughty recently, Rong Concubine is afraid that she will be flawless, and more burdens will naturally fall on you, and you take care of the harem for me, I will be grateful to you. As for Juechan Chang presence, I have already made arrangements before, but I haven't had time to let Manager Li pass the word, it is indeed inappropriate for Juechan to live there, Concubine Wen has always felt lonely in Xianfu Palace, I have decided to let Juechan move to Xianfu Palace to be with Concubine Wen, if you have a heart, it is good to go to Xianfu Palace from time to time. ”

Lan Qi listened to Xuan Ye's words, while watching the light on Concubine Hui's face suddenly dim, so fast that she was not allowed to blink her eyes, and Xuan Ye's words also shocked her, she didn't expect to let Jue Chan go to Xianfu Palace, to the side of Concubine Wen, who was chattering with gods and gods, and was neither yin nor yang?

But think about it, Concubine Wen and the Juechan clan have no contact and no conflict, two people who have nothing to do with each other, Concubine Wen will not be as mean and tyrannical as Guo Guiren, even if the Juechan clan has lost the freedom in the remote courtyard, but life will not be difficult, and living with others, Lan Qi no longer has to worry about Nalan Rongruo.

"It's fine." The Empress Dowager said with a smile, "Concubine Wen is young and weak, I am afraid that it will be difficult to have an heir over the years, it is better to give birth to the Juechan family, whether it is a brother or a princess, stay in Xianfu Palace, or have the blessing of bringing a child, and I also hope that Concubine Wen will add an heir to my royal family as soon as possible, and this matter is so decided." ”

Concubine Hui knelt on the ground in embarrassment, and the Empress Dowager asked her to get up, and said with a smile: "Why did you talk about it, or about Yinyu, Concubine Hui, don't worry, even if the emperor is too busy to remember, I will urge him to send someone to find out the truth as soon as possible, and give you and the eldest brother an explanation." You don't have to come to ask for help these days, go to your brother's house every day to take care of the child, and wait for him to recover before you quit. I'm sleepy after lunch, and I want to sleep for a while, so you all kneel down and stay and serve me. ”

Lan Qi hurriedly stepped forward, helped the Empress Dowager to the inner hall, and when she walked away, she glanced back, only to see Concubine Hui standing up softly, full of frustration and loss, but she didn't dare to look at it, for fear of being seen by Concubine Hui and forming a grudge.

waited until he entered the inner hall, and when Mama Su Mala led the palace maids to come back and wait for the Empress Dowager to wash, the old man laughed inexplicably: "Concubine Hui really refuses to suffer, if it weren't for Xuan Ye to speak first, I'm afraid I would have to agree." Me too, people are old and soft-hearted, and they are troublesome. ”

Lan Qi didn't say a word, carefully removed the bead hairpin on the head of the Queen Mother, and gently kneaded her forehead to relax, but the Queen Mother reached out and shook Lan Qi's hand, and saw that the scalded fingers were fine, and then asked: "The matter of the eldest brother, did it scare you?" ”

"I'm scared, thinking about my child, I feel a chill on my back, I hope it's really the chef in the imperial dining room who is negligent." Lan Qi said frankly, "If I hadn't gone to the Qianqing Palace last night, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to sleep all night." ”

The Empress Dowager suddenly asked: "Why are you uncomfortable on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival and during the day yesterday?" ”

"Too much wine." Lan Qi lied without thinking, lying is not a good thing, but if she doesn't lie, she has to say bad things, she has no choice.

The Empress Dowager didn't ask any more questions, and sneered: "The amount of alcohol is not good, so you are not allowed to drink it in the future." Then he said to himself, "That Juechan clan came out of Hui Concubine's side, and his heart must be towards Hui Concubine, if they are tied together again, one is calculating, and the other is enchanting, don't mess up the peace in this palace, if it doesn't work, I'm almost confused." ”

Lan Qi was reluctant to continue these topics, coaxed the old man to sleep peacefully, and said that she would also go back to see Yinzuo, so the Empress Dowager asked her to bring the child to take a look at her at night, and when she withdrew from the inner hall, the emperor and Concubine Hui had already left.

"Mother." But seeing that Mama Su Mala came out, she called out to Lan Qi, "The slave maid has eaten too much lunch, so I will accompany you for a walk." ”

Lan Qi understood, and the two walked out of Cining Palace together, and Mama said: "Long live the Lord will instruct the slave maid at the beginning of this year, and you don't have to tell the Empress Dowager about everything in the future, and you can't worry about everything anymore, so some things the slave and maid also look at and say, such as the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival." ”

Lan Qi was weak and hurriedly asked, "What happened on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival?" ”

Mama Su Mala smiled meaningfully: "Juezen is always in the affairs of Lord Nalan." ”

Lan Qi was so flustered that she blurted out: "They are innocent." Mama, Juezen Changzai and Lord Nalan are cousins, so they just said a few more words, and nothing else. ”

Mama smiled and said, "It seems that Niang Niang knows a lot, what do you know after the enclosure camp back then?" ”

"No, Mama......" Lan Qi realized that she was useless, and her original form was revealed as soon as she was teased by a few words from Mama, and she held her arm in a panic and said, "There is really nothing, it is I who is blindly worried about it, so I will think crankily." ”

Mama was overjoyed, but comforted her: "Of course there is nothing, otherwise she can still live in the palace and be lucky by the emperor?" You are really too worried, listen to the slave and the maid, and don't worry about those things. You don't know yet, Long Live Lord sent Nalan Gongzi out again, this time to go back to Jiangnan to settle the victims, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back for a year and a half. ”

Lan Qi looked at Mama blankly, and it took a while to understand what it meant, and asked very softly, "The emperor also knows?" ”

Mama smiled: "Whether the emperor knows anything, the slave and maid can't guess, but the slave and maid understand that there is nothing in this world that the emperor doesn't know, only what the emperor doesn't want to know." ”

"Then ......" Lan Qi thought that he was silent about Xuan Yesan, and he lied when he asked him what he was doing when he went to see Jue Chan Clan yesterday, and he was very uneasy in his heart for a while, but he couldn't say it to Mama, and he finally gave up after being entangled, and smiled at Mama Xie, "I remember what you said." ”

After that, Mama did not continue to walk, halfway back to Cining Palace, Lan Qi was stunned all the way to Yonghe Palace, when she approached, she saw Ziyu probe waiting at the intersection, and when she saw the master coming back, she ran over and said: "Master, go back quickly, the concubine Niangniang just led the fourth elder brother to come over and play with the sixth brother." ”
