"Wouldn't it be strange if it was so easy to find?" Lan Qi gently pushed the tea on the table to the Juechan clan and said with a smile, "Since Dong Yun said that the eunuch clearly wanted to tell her the truth, it was also obvious that someone wanted us to investigate." At first, I was worried that someone was calculating that I would be too kind-hearted and wanted to use this to provoke my relationship with the emperor, but in fact, once I touched this matter, I would already displease the emperor, and they were deep enough. ”

Juezen noble: "The concubine also thinks so, you see that this line is broken when you find the eunuch, saying that it is leaving the palace, whether it is dead or alive is unknown, even if it is chased outside the palace, there may not be results." For them, it seems that they are not afraid that you will find out who it is, the important thing is to instigate the relationship between you and the emperor, which is an extremely obscure secret that cannot be said, and you or the emperor may not find out. ”

Lan Qi took the bowl of tea in her hand, tasted it slowly, with a sweet and bitter aftertaste in her mouth, and said slowly: "Now that she has succeeded, the emperor and I really have a disagreement, and I am not sure what will happen in the future." ”

For this, Jue Chan was a little curious: "Niangniang and the emperor, is it true?" ”

Lan Qi asked rhetorically, "What do you think?" ”

Jue Chan smiled and said: "The concubine thinks it's not, the emperor's affection for you, how can a Wang family shake it?" She can't match even ten, she's just a little more bewitching and beautiful than the others, a beautiful but fragile vase. ”

Lan Qi's heart trembled, admiring that Jue Chan really could see through everything calmly, the same words, Xuan Ye only told her not long ago, Xuan Ye said that the Wang family is just a beautiful woman.

"Niangniang doesn't have to take Wang Changzai too seriously, although the concubines are not qualified to point fingers at you and the emperor's feelings, but after so many years of cold eyes, if Niangniang has to question it, the emperor is a little pitiful." Jue Chan picked up the blue and white porcelain cup and drank the tea, lowered his eyes and said softly, "The concubine thinks that the emperor has a deep understanding of the affairs of the harem, what he cares about, the sesame can also care, he doesn't care, and he can't let him take a second look at it." Our concubines are vases and chess pieces for the emperor, the more prosperous and stable the harem, the more it seems to be today's sage, since ancient times, the red face and troubled water will be matched with a mediocre and incompetent king, and today's saint, I don't worry about what disasters will appear around him. ”

Lan Qi said with a smile: "During the trip to Duolunoer, Concubine Rong joked with me, saying that the emperor brought you with him because he wanted to let the people on the grassland see how dazzling the beauties of the harem of the Qing Dynasty were. ”

Juechan didn't care about such a joke, after all, it was the case, and said: "The concubine is well aware of the responsibility of that follower, and she dresses up beautifully and solemnly every day, and she doesn't embarrass the women in our Forbidden City. She paused and continued, "The concubine has not spoken yet, and the concubine wants to say that we are vases and chess pieces, but you are neither. ”

Lan Qi listened, while eating tea again, Yun smiled lightly: "If you listen to a lot of nice words, people should be fluttering, and you will put your words in your stomach, I understand it." ”

"Yes."

"Concubine Hui's matter will be put on hold for now, and I don't plan to ask the emperor about Concubine Wen being drugged." Lan Qi smiled slightly, "What the emperor will do to her there, you just have to wait and see recently." ”

Jue Chan was disdainful, and when she mentioned Concubine Hui, a terrifying hatred appeared in her eyes, and she said quietly: "The situation that the concubine wants to see, it's still early, the emperor won't move Concubine Hui, otherwise her bad deeds will be enough to die a hundred times." Niangniang also knows that the emperor will not touch Concubine Hui. ”

Lan Qi said: "Because of the big brother." ”

Jue Chan smiled: "It's the big brother." ”

"Just don't hurt yourself." Lan Qi felt that her throat was a little dry, as if she wanted to avoid this topic, they had said that if they couldn't work for each other's lives, then they should also get together and disperse, she always felt that sooner or later there would be a day, Jue Chan was an excellent brain, but after all, the two of them had different perspectives on the world from their bones.

Lan Qi thinks that she is a person who can give up her persistence for the sake of human affection, but she is still soaked in her blood and bones because of her former paranoia.

In the days that followed, for the second anniversary of Empress Xiaoyi in July, Lan Qi didn't care too much about the trivial matters in the palace, and only after three or four days did she find that even the female eunuchs in Yonghe Palace were talking about it. It turned out that somehow, since entering the palace and giving birth to a daughter, Yuan agreed, and suddenly became a frequent visitor to the Qianqing Palace in the past few days.

Concubine Rong privately transferred the file from the Internal Affairs Office, and told Lan Qi as if offering a treasure that Yuan promised to be a companion in the Qianqing Palace, and he had never done anything, and even Wang Changzai didn't accept the rain and dew before, and the emperor seemed to be only good to them on the surface.

"The emperor picked up a few of them, and those who were red-eyed and green-eyed were looking for trouble with them, so we could be quiet for a while." Concubine Rong seemed to be in the mood to see the joke, and joked, "I still think, long live the lord will be forty in a few years, although thirty is like a wolf and forty is like a tiger, but it can't be too profligate, looking at those beauties in the Qianqing Palace, I am still worried about his body, now it seems that the emperor understands it in his heart." ”

Lan Qi flipped through the list of the old year and the autumn of this year, compared the expenses and expenses of the two years, did not raise her eyelids, and said casually: "Sister, don't think too well of our master, he is the most greedy, and he can't remember those things, is it really that rigorous?" If you should be persuaded, you still have to persuade him, it's a big deal to make him angry, calm down, and still know the severity. ”

While talking, someone came outside, unprecedentedly rare guests, Concubine Yi didn't know where to be idle, Tete came to Yonghe Palace to visit, the weather was getting cooler, the body had changed the smoke gauze gown to Yunjin, looking gorgeous and noble, but she was too hot, sat down and fanned the wind and said: "It's only the beginning of July, Tao Hongfei said that the weather is cold and turned out the autumn shirt to ask me to wear, walking on the road is afraid of being laughed at by those palace maids and eunuchs." ”

Lan Qi and Concubine Rong glanced at each other, and Concubine Rong said: "Now when the wind blows in the shade, there is a chill in my bones, in the end, my sister is young, I can't stand it for a long time." ”

Concubine Yi pursed her lips and sneered, saw the account list spread out on the table, flipped through it casually, and said intentionally or unintentionally with a brace on her face: "No matter how young you are, you can't compare to those few." ”

Lan Qi was silent, and Concubine Rong smiled: "The scenery you used to be, they can't keep up with it in their lifetime, don't say these jokes." ”

Concubine Yi said: "But some people are not afraid of crawling out of the folds on their faces, and they are still rushing to seduce the emperor." ”

Lan Qi felt inappropriate, and immediately thought that Concubine Yi was laughing at her, but after thinking about it, why did Concubine Yi do this, so she settled her heart, and sure enough, she heard her say: "The two sisters can't guess, do you know where our Long Live Lord is sitting here?" ”

Lan Qi packed up the things in front of her, called Huan Chunlai, and blamed her for why she didn't serve tea to Concubine Yi, but Concubine Yi pushed away and sneered: "I can't sleep tonight, how dare I drink tea, and if I drink tea, I will stay up until dawn." As soon as the words changed, he hated the two of them, "I just went out, I wanted to go to the garden to walk, but I saw the emperor's imperial chariot going to Changchun Palace, I thought in my heart that I can't, how can the emperor remember her, but the imperial chariot really stopped, I saw the emperor enter the door with my own eyes." ”

Concubine Rong coughed dryly and said, "What's so strange about that, the emperor likes to go wherever he wants." ”

Concubine Yi sighed for a long time, chattering about the things in front of the Changchun Palace, it turned out that although the emperor entered the door of the Changchun Palace, what was waiting in front of the door was to promise the Yuan family, she gritted her teeth: "That little fox spirit, when she saw the emperor, she didn't salute, so she directly stretched out her hand to hold it, and the market said that he was leaning on the door and laughing, isn't that it?" Concubine Hui is really shameless, there is still an eighth elder brother living in Changchun Palace, and she is not afraid of teaching the child badly. ”

Lan Qi and Concubine Rong listened expressionlessly, how could they know that in the early years, Concubine Yi hated the emperor for favoring Concubine De, and said similar things in front of Concubine Hui, if they knew, they would definitely remember, but Concubine Yi herself had already forgotten everything.

Concubine Yi said to Lan Qi: "Sister Defei, what's the matter with you, what kind of conflict is there with the emperor, now even you are cold, our wave, the number of qi is really exhausted?" ”

Concubine Rong suddenly interjected, and the meaning of disdain in her words slowly became playful, and she actually asked to her face: "According to my sister's meaning, are you worried about those things in the night of Long Live Lord?" Otherwise, I look at you, the days are rich and moist, why do you say that you have exhausted your breath? ”

Lan Qi was very surprised when she heard this, Concubine Rong would never be so straightforward to open up sinners.

At the same time, the emperor was in the Changchun Palace, he didn't remember when he set foot last time, and he didn't even remember that he had never been there, when he entered the door, Yuan promised to hold her arm warmly and affectionately, he wanted to do it for outsiders to see, and he threw it away when he entered the door, but before he bothered, Concubine Hui had already scolded Yuan for being rude.

Yuan didn't dare to be presumptuous, standing cowardly, Xuan Ye and Concubine Hui sat down in the main hall, he didn't have a purpose, but it happened that Yuan promised to be in Changchun Palace, Yuan promised to be young and unstable, relying on the recent favor, so he ran out to pick up the car, but ended up being blamed by Concubine Hui, and then Concubine Hui also calmly explained to the emperor: "Yuan promised to be lively, the concubine originally wanted to be with her sister to relieve her boredom, so she neglected not to stick to her rules, the emperor should not be surprised, the concubine will restrain her well in the future." ”

Xuan Ye didn't care at all, but got up and said: "Let's go to Yinxi's house and take a look, he has always been good at schoolwork, but I rarely care about his private life, but the child has learned so gently and elegantly, it must be your credit." ”

Concubine Hui was nervous, but fortunately, she had recently begun to care about the eighth elder brother, if the emperor had asked her half a year earlier, she really didn't know what to ask.

Xuan Ye smiled slightly: "Let's go, I don't know which room he lives in." ”
