Last night, the imperial concubine and several Fujin were drunk, and they were rude in front of people, and they were sent back halfway to the banquet, because why didn't the emperor go to Chengqian Palace on a festive day to come to Yonghe Palace, but there are still concubines under the imperial concubines, and the emperor doesn't favor others, so it's no wonder that Lan Qi met Wen Guifei halfway but was ignored like that, and today's sarcastic sour words didn't surprise her.

The Queen Mother was very embarrassed, not very happy, and carefully put the child into Lan Qi's arms, but she didn't hear it, so she just said to her: "The little girl is well-behaved, she doesn't cry at all, it's completely different from Yinqi's childhood, in the end, it's a female doll, does she already know that she is a princess, the most noble golden branch and jade leaf?" ”

Being said by the Queen Mother, Lan Qi felt more comfortable, her daughter was so beautiful that she couldn't help but want to be proud, she had never seen such a beautiful baby, how should this little girl look like in the future? smiled and said to the queen mother: "You can teach the princess like teaching the fifth elder brother, the concubine is really afraid that she will rely on your favor and be too proud in the future." ”

"The princess is naturally proud, she was born rich, and being proud is self-respecting." The Queen Mother smiled, this sentence naturally has half a joke, she raised Yinqi, although she did not teach reading and literacy, but taught the fifth elder brother to be very well-behaved, more polite than Yinzuo, Yinqi can already remember to salute when he sees people, Yinzuo always has to dial a dial before moving.

"E-niang, show me my little sister." At this time, Yinzuo pulled his mother's skirt and was anxious to see his sister, the queen mother picked him up and sat on his lap, Lan Qi bent down slightly to show his son his sister, and said to him, "Now Yinzuo has so many younger brothers and sisters, you are also a big brother, you can't be naughty in the future, you know?" ”

Yinzuo should know loudly, but the little princess was startled, and the little princess cried, and the tenth elder brother in the concubine's arms also cried, and the two milk dolls in the small warm pavilion cried, which made people have a headache, but the culprit Yinzuo went to play with the fifth elder brother at ease, Lan Qi smiled and sighed at the queen mother: "You also help the concubine take care of the sixth elder brother, this child is too skinny, and the concubine doesn't know what to teach him less, compared to his brothers and brothers, it's really a headache." ”

Concubine Wen Guifei didn't seem to be able to hear the child's crying, the nurse had already taken the tenth elder brother away from her arms, and she had just been ignored by the Queen Mother and Lan Qi had made her full of anger, and the two children were crying non-stop, she couldn't stand it anymore, but the Queen Mother suddenly remembered the past, and actually reminded her: "In the past, the eighth elder brother cried every day, making you uneasy and suffering from hysteria, now you have to pay attention, don't get sick again, let the imperial doctor prescribe some tranquilizers to eat." ”

Originally, it was Wen Guifei who sarcastically mocked Lan Qi, but now it became the Queen Mother to sarcastically mock her, fortunately, no one else was there, otherwise Wen Guifei's face would be lost, thinking about her hearing the words of the Zen family in recent years, she often came to coax the Queen Mother to be happy, and she always thought that she had some affection, and she didn't want to waste all her hard work, and she couldn't resist people sending her relatives to please her.

"Yes, the concubine will be careful." Concubine Wen can only endure it, otherwise what else can she do? can see Concubine De patiently and happily coaxing the crying little princess, the little girl was gradually coaxed by her mother not to cry, and was even more amused by Concubine De's eyebrows and babbling happily, and she felt even more uncomfortable inexplicably.

But the Queen Mother chattered again: "Brother Ten is only a full moon soon, don't always hug me around, how about freezing outside when it's cold?" ”

Concubine Wen Guifei's heart suddenly became angry, and she said coldly: "The concubine has resigned." ”

The atmosphere in the hall was embarrassing for a while, she woke up and felt rude, but the words she said could not be returned, the queen mother was finally kind-hearted, and did not embarrass her, and said: "Last night, the snow road was slippery, you let the little eunuch carry the sedan chair and walk slowly." Only then did he finally ease the atmosphere and let her go down the steps.

After Concubine Wen left, the nurse came to take away the little princess, and when she saw the palace maid serving tea, Lan Qi personally took it and served her, and sat down with the queen mother to drink tea, and the queen mother comforted her and said: "The concubine is not bad, but she is small and has no bearing, don't go to your heart, she is younger than you, although she is more noble, you should let her be, there is no need to mention any respect or disrespect." ”

Lan Qi promised, skillfully served the tea and handed it to the Queen Mother, too much and sighed: "Look at the imperial concubine is now generous, she has finally grown up, I really don't know when this one will be able to grow her heart, compared to her own sister is not a little bit worse, in the past, Queen Niu Hulu often came to Ningshou Palace to see me, that is sincere filial piety, where is like her, I am tired and panicked." You also have some fate with Queen Niu Hulu, just for her sake. ”

"You still love the concubine Niangniang, the concubines didn't say they were unhappy, you spoke for the concubine." Lan Qi said with a smile, "Mama Su Mala often says that the concubine is broad-minded, but the emperor says that it is the concubine who makes the concubine happy, but in fact, the concubine is thick-skinned, and a few words from others really can't hurt the heart." ”

The Queen Mother laughed, blaming her for talking nonsense, but she was in a better mood and spoke happily, and she was even more happy to mention the little princess, so that Lan Qi was relieved to put her daughter here, and even instructed her: "You don't have to come because Concubine Yi can't come to see the fifth elder brother and you don't come often, you are different, not to mention that Concubine Yi now has the ninth elder brother, look at her posture, and she doesn't necessarily think about this son." Yinqi is about to have a birthday, in previous years, she sent people to send all kinds of things early, but this year there was no movement at all, I want to see, she still remembers. ”

Lan Qi didn't answer, she didn't have the qualifications to speak about these things that the Queen Mother said, no matter what, the fifth elder brother was always born to Concubine Yi, and in terms of human ethics, there was no reason to break up other mothers and sons. Although everything in the palace has a reason, then if she has contradictions in her heart, it is better not to talk too much.

After leaving from Ningshou Palace, the sixth elder brother was left by the Queen Mother, and Lan Qi was going to Cining Palace to serve the Queen Mother. Because the snow on the road has not been cleared in the place where I often go, it is not a trouble to go around in the other direction, but when I walked well, I saw many people kneeling in front of me, and when I got closer, I recognized them, one of them was Wan Liuha, who lived with Concubine Rong in Jingyang Palace.

There are three or four kneeling here who are often agreeing, and the palace maids who follow have not been spared, although the snow here has been cleared, but the ground is so cold, it is really wrong to kneel here in winter. Lan Qi asked them what was going on, and some people said that it was the sisters who were laughing on the road just now, and they didn't know that Concubine Wen came from behind, and they were shocked, so they were punished by the concubine to kneel here.

Lan Qi couldn't help frowning, and saw that the place where they knelt gradually couldn't even get the sun, so she made her own decision: "Get up, the noble concubine Niangniang has been walking from Ningshou Palace for more than half an hour, and your faces are frozen, and if you continue like this, you will be sick." Let's all go back, I will explain anything to the concubine. ”

A few people didn't dare yet, hesitating to figure out the severity, Lan Qi and Wan Liuha were familiar, so they scolded her with a cold face: "If you all fall ill, won't you hurt the concubine Niangniang to take responsibility, and it is wrong to frolic on the palace road if you don't follow the rules first, and you have to make mistakes?" Always there, how does Concubine Rong teach you on weekdays, do you have to wait for others to accuse Concubine Rong? ”

Wan Liuha immediately trembled and got up, the sisters supported each other, and they didn't dare to look at Concubine De while thanking each other, Lan Qi asked them all to go back and then Xuan Taiyi prescribed some medicine to ward off the cold, and then walked away. After that, she was not very happy all the way, and Huanchun persuaded her: "The concubine Niangniang is angry for a while, and she may forget it when she walks by, and she will not come to embarrass you, don't care, master." ”

Lan Qi sighed: "I don't care if she comes to trouble me, it's good that she really troubles me, I also have something to say to her, let's talk about it clearly." I'm afraid that she will spill her anger on other people's heads in the future, and torture these promises at every turn, don't you remember how we were tossed by the imperial concubine in the past? In the past, even An Guiren dared to bully us, but now look at these young people, they are also very innocent. She has grievances, and if she makes these people full of grievances, can life in this palace be good? ”

Having said that, but then when she came to the Empress Dowager, Lan Qi didn't mention this, and waited until she waited for the old man's lunch break, and when she was basking in the sun under the porch with Su Mala and splitting embroidery threads, she mentioned it, and Mama sighed: "Good person, why can't she think about it again, the emperor hates this kind of thing the most, if the Qianqing Palace knows, what else is she looking forward to." ”

Lan Qi said: "If you want to talk about the emperor, the concubine was indeed sick and couldn't take care of her when she gave birth to the tenth elder brother, but in the days that followed, she was somewhat too negligent." But I can't always remind me, first, I'm not so generous, and it's hypocritical to say too much, yesterday I asked the emperor why he didn't go to Chengqian Palace, and he laughed at him. ”

Mama looked at Lan Qi, the delicate and fair skin on her face was shiny, as if it had been sunburned with a faint golden light, and the clothes on her body were not simple when the nobles were always there, and she had the grandeur and dignity of being in the concubine; The makeup on her face is not that light and light, her eyebrows are curved, and her lips are like cherry blossoms, all of which are charming and colorful that she should have at this age. But only those eyes are still as clear as before, occasionally smiling, as if you can still see the coquettish state of many years ago, Mama will always remember the appearance of her leaning over to wash her feet, and at this time, it seems to be a granddaughter, not some noble concubine.

"What are you looking at?" Lan Qi saw that Su Mala's mother was looking at herself, and asked with a smile what was wrong, and her mother said, "I think our mother is getting better and better." ”

Lan Qi was stunned, but smiled happily: "Originally, I thought that I didn't have the appearance of captivating the country and the city, and then I would have to be old and yellow, but now when I look at the little princess, I don't worry about it." She will grow up beautifully, and when I look at her slim in the future, I will not be afraid of the passage of time, and this is how life is inherited. ”
