Although Huanchun pushed Yukui to signal her not to talk nonsense, she couldn't help but say: "Actually, Niangniang doesn't care about this matter, no one knows anyway, anyway, it doesn't matter if Wang Chang is giving birth or not, long live the princess of Brother." ”

Lan Qi smiled: "It doesn't matter if she gives birth or not, isn't it pitiful to deprive her of the right to be a mother alive?" She is a Han woman, and everyone in the palace knows that giving birth to Princess Ah Ge is different from other brothers and sisters, no matter what, they are less qualified to fight, on the contrary, these children can live the simplest. ”

Yukui frowned and asked: "Why should Niangniang be kind, you are kind, people may not appreciate it, and if you turn around and provoke any of them, you will be hated and retaliated, then it will be bad." ”

Lan Qi said: "I just think about this, at the moment I can't tell the truth from the false, I can't tell who is behind the scenes to hurt her like this, I can't tell if I make a rash move, it's not good if I make a big fuss, it doesn't matter if she has a child or not." He sighed softly, "I guess I looked at her and remembered myself." ”

Yu Kui went to pour all the tea and clean it up, Huan Chun served the master and lay down, and said strangely: "You and Wang Changzai are different. ”

Lan Qi shook his head: "It's not the same, it's that my life is better than any of them, since I was always there, I have been hiding in the shadow of Cining Palace, Huanchun You think, if there was no Empress Dowager to protect me for more than ten years, I wouldn't have known what it would have been calculated for." ”

Huanchun asked, "That's why you think Wang Chang is pitiful?" ”

Lan Qi smiled bitterly: "I think they are all pitiful." ”

Since she was a palace maid, she has always been said by Bu Gui and Pan Xia to be like a Buddha, and later she was said by the Empress Dowager and Su Mala to be soft-hearted and soft-eared, and fell into Xuan Ye's mouth, that is, she is nosy and worried, Lan Qi herself also understands the weakness of her character, and she has worked hard to avoid it in the past two years, but everyone sees everything in their eyes, and it is inevitable that she will be compassionate, not to mention that she has bigger and more far-reaching things to consider now.

On this day, Huanchun heard the master muttering from time to time: "What if the emperor wants her to give birth?" Naturally, the other way around, "What if Xuan Ye doesn't want her to give birth?" ”

In the evening of that day, the prince side Fujin took her to visit the garden in order to thank all the mothers, and personally steamed snacks in the afternoon and sent them to each courtyard, and everyone praised the side Fujin for his ingenuity, and the side Fujin gradually emerged in the royal family.

In the days that followed, after the prince Fang Fujin entered the door, everyone found that the prince had changed slightly, the young man who had always been silent and gentle, had more smiles on his face than before, and went to Ningchun Hall with Fang Fujin every day to greet the Queen Mother, which was easier to get close to than before, and Fang Fujin could talk on the side, which made the Queen Mother like it very much.

Among the brothers, the fourth elder brother goes to Wuyizhai every day to study, because he is still a half-old child, there is not much evasion for a while, and when they study, Fang Fujin either does not go out, or comes to Ningchun Hall to accompany the queen mother, or goes elsewhere to talk to the princesses, and meets the source between the brothers and sisters-in-law, but for half a month, he has won the love of everyone, and even the emperor praised this daughter-in-law in front of the queen mother.

In contrast, the eldest brother's concubine Fujin is not so pleasing, people always like to compare everything, and now the emperor's daughter-in-law also has a comparison, and the eldest brother Fujin is compared. But Da Fujin is a dignified lady in the main room, and the prince's side Fujin is just a concubine, so if he is compared like this, he has no face.

Concubine Hui lived alone in the deep palace, and when she heard these gossips from two places, she was very aggrieved and couldn't enjoy herself.

Now that Yanzhu was killed by the emperor, Mingzhu understood that the matter of letting go of the wolf was known to the emperor, even if there was a calculation, he could not be in a hurry, and he did not arrange people to help Concubine Hui for a while.

At the beginning of May, the emperor took the crown prince and the side Fujin to pay tribute to the Empress Hesheri, there were two days not in the garden, the weather was getting hotter, few people in the garden came out to shake, and finally it was clean again, but they all knew that they were going back to the palace to prepare for the wedding of the eldest princess.

Concubine Rong asked for the concubine, their mother and daughter will go back in advance, although it is not a few days early, but they can prepare more important things, this is the first time the emperor has married his daughter, and the Horqin Department has not been married for many years, it can be regarded as a common event in the harem court, everyone dare not say it, but it is indeed much more important than the prince's side Fujin entering the door in April.

The next day, the mother and daughter of Duan Concubine were going back first, and on this day Lan Qi came to see if they were lacking, and when she entered the door, she listened to the laughter of Concubine Rong, Duan Concubine and Bu Guiren, and slowly walked into the room and asked, "What are the sisters laughing at, so happy?" ”

The noble man came up to support her, and asked her to bring a beauty couch for her to lie down, Concubine Rong sneered: "Look at her noble now, let's all sit, she swaggered and lay down." ”

Lan Qi ignored it and said seriously: "Sister, don't be frivolous, don't you also shout about back pain on a rainy day?" Me too, I didn't know that my waist was so important when it didn't hurt, and I have to take care of her now. ”

Asked what they were laughing at, Bu Guiren said softly, "That's exactly what you're talking about." ”

Lan Qi was surprised: "What are you talking about me?" ”

It turned out that the sisters had nothing to do, and the parents talked about gossip between women, but now the eldest brother Fujin and the prince side Fujin have a world of difference, and the other elder brothers' Fujin have not yet been seen, but the fourth elder brother's Fujin must be the young lady of the Wulanala family, the child has a pleasing personality and looks peugeot, and he will be more likable than the side Fujin when he enters the door in the future, and it will be lively in the future.

Later, I didn't know how to talk about Lan Qi, saying that she was obviously low-key everywhere, but she could always have something to make people envious or even jealous, and always felt that God favored her very much, and no matter how the harem women arranged him, there were very few whispers and gossip from the court, they thought about why, and counted their fingers, it turned out that Lan Qi had never come forward in many major matters.

In the past, although she was canonized as a concubine alone, she didn't make it very grand because she was weak with the sixth elder brother, and then the four concubines were canonized together, and she was raised in the house with a child and did not participate in the ceremony.

It's no wonder that the ministers know very little about Concubine De, a concubine who has never shown her face at important ceremonies, doesn't seem to be as arrogant and proud as rumored, and Yonghe Palace has indeed always been low-key, except for the trouble of finding the door, there has never been anything out of line, and it is difficult to arrange some "fame" for her.

Lan Qi listened, smiled and said: "It will be difficult in the future, now my sister and I are in charge of the affairs of the palace, and there is a lot of gossip about the internal affairs office." ”

Concubine Rong said: "Let's do it cleanly and without leakage, what are they spreading nonsense?" It just so happened that Concubine Yi was ridiculous in those days, and it seemed that we were even more cautious. ”

While speaking, Princess Chunxi came back from Ningchun Hall to ask for peace, she and Duan Concubine will return to the palace early tomorrow morning, she does not have much sadness about being married, and has her own vision for the future. ”

Concubine Rong was not at ease, she always felt that the Queen Mother was more attentive in front of her, and she came over with Lan Qi to take a look at the situation, but before she approached Changchun Garden, she had already withdrawn one after another, and saw that the ladies were followed by young girls from a distance, Concubine Rong was stunned and asked Lan Qi: "Do you know?" ”

Lan Qi had a spectrum in her heart, but she really didn't hear anyone say it, so she shook her head: "It's the same as my sister, I just saw it." ”

When she got to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother didn't hide it, and said to Concubine Rong: "I'll see if these girls are good, the third elder brother has also grown up, and the Rong Xian girl is going to get married, and after the concubine, it's your turn." ”

If it came suddenly, Concubine Rong was unprepared, although she also knew that the day was near, but in charge of the affairs of the prince and the eldest princess, she always felt that it would be the turn of Jingyang Palace to be delayed for two years, but she didn't expect it to be so soon.

In Ning Chun Hall, she was still smiling before leaving, and Concubine Rong's whole person collapsed. Lan Qi didn't say much, and after separating from her, she returned to Ruijingxuan, and stayed alone for a long time, until she was persuaded by Huanchun not to sit for a long time, so she lay down and talked to her.

Huanchun didn't understand why Concubine Rong reacted so much, Lan Qi smiled bitterly: "Once the children leave, she will really be alone in Jingyang Palace, the emperor spoils the newcomers, and he won't think of them, although I don't know when I ended up in such a situation, but just thinking about it, I know how lonely and unbearable it was." Now there are so many little dolls in front of me, even if the emperor doesn't come, I don't have time to be jealous and sad, the children don't stop for a moment, but the trivial things in the palace are urgent and slow, once they rest, they are only left with cranky thoughts. ”

This is the sorrow of a woman in the deep palace, without the care of her husband, the child is the greatest comfort, even if the child will be separated one day, but at least there will be more than ten years of family happiness. Concubine Rong is different from Concubine Duan, even if she doesn't compete for favor, she has been trying to have a foothold in the harem, children and rights are the capital on which she stands, and now the children are leaving, maybe she will hand over the rights in her hands in the future, as if waiting for her future, there is nothing.

Huanchun understands her master, after listening to her words, she understands what she is worried about, this day she came to him with a paper bag, opened a good smell of burnt incense, and said with a smile: "The weather is hot, the new barley tea is coming, and there are also masters in the palace who love to use them, so the Internal Affairs Office has prepared, but we have never wanted it so we will not send it, and the slave and maid specially went to ask for these for you." ”

"Give it to me?" Lan Qi was strange, but soon understood, and asked with a smile, "Let me go and give it to Wang Changzai?" ”

Huan Chun said with a smile: "The slave maid thought, instead of making it clear, it is better to unconsciously let Wang Changzai change the tea and drink, and it is better to have more than one thing." ”
