"There are guests coming during the New Year's Festival, I can't be thoughtful, the concubine goes to see her, the mother is relieved, I won't let her bother you." Lan Qi knew that Concubine Duan couldn't slow down today's events for a few days, so she comforted her a few words, then came out with Huanchun, and saw Juechan leading the palace maid to stand under the door, so she asked Huanchun to invite her in and sit.

Sitting down in the east side hall, seeing her saluting, Lan Qi said politely: "Duan Concubine Niangniang and Bu Guiren are tired, so I won't see you." ”

Juechan promised and said: "The concubine is here to see you, and the concubine and the noble people will go to ask for peace in the future, but they will be gone today." ”

"Something?" Lan Qi didn't have the energy to greet her politely, thinking that the Jue Chan clan was bored in the house for a long time, unless she had to entertain, otherwise she would hardly be seen in the palace, and she would have been cold to her because of those things, and she rarely spoke when she met, and she didn't look like she would come to congratulate the festival.

But Lan Qi asked this sentence, Juechan agreed but did not rush to answer, but first ordered the palace maid to go down, as soon as her palace maid left, Huanchun and a few people stood on the side and looked embarrassed, seeing that the master did not object, they also left together.

The door of the hall closed slowly, Lan Qi's gaze turned back to Juechan's body, and asked directly, "Is there something important related to me?" ”

"The concubine doesn't know whether to say these things or not, although she thinks that more things are better than less, but I think that no matter how you want to be wary of them." Jue Chan's face was calm, and he said slowly, "The concubine thinks that the person who rumored that you had a private meeting with Prince Gong today should be Nala who is always there, and the slave maid saw her palace maid talking nonsense with others. Nala often complained to her concubine that you sat in a soft sedan chair to argue with her on the day of Laba, when she was sick to her stomach and was sent back by the concubine, but she said that your sedan chair not only blocked her way, but the little eunuch next to her scolded her for rushing to reincarnation. The concubine thought, if Nala often has grievances, it can't be wrong to say these things today. ”

Word by word evoked the memories of Lan Qi Laba's day, Xuan Ye sent someone to pick her up to see the scenery at the noon gate tower, and did hear the little eunuch scolding on the way, and asked at that time only said that it was the palace maid eunuch, she sat in the warm sedan chair and didn't look outside, how could she think that it was Nala's, and how those little eunuchs worshipped high and low, and now that Nala was pregnant, they didn't dare to be disrespectful, maybe they didn't know that Nala was often sitting in the sedan chair.

It's not for anyone to excuse it at the moment, the rumors spread by the Nala clan are also put aside, Lan Qi is worried about the little eunuch's scolding words that day, she also heard the sentence "hurry to reincarnate", Nala didn't add oil and vinegar, she was already sensitive and delicate when she was pregnant with a child, where could she withstand such an unfortunate sentence, not to mention that Brother Wan Huang has always been bad.

"Virtuous people?" Juezen promised to see Lan Qi in a daze, and spoke softly.

Lan Qi relieved herself, raised her eyes and saw Jue Chan's face, she hadn't paid attention to it for a few days, but when she looked at it carefully, she suddenly felt strange. At the beginning, the person who was looking for death and life was like a withered person, although he was still slender, but he was charming and colorful, his eyes were flowing like a pool of autumn water, his red lips were greasy and his nose was like condensation.

I often hear Duan Concubine and Bu Guiren muttering, saying that Hui Concubine has ulterior motives for Juechan's promise, Lan Qi sighed in her heart, such a beauty, the emperor is not surprised, he does not belong to himself alone, although he also longs to monopolize Xuan Ye in his heart, but with such a mind, the harem will not be able to stay, but this time I look at Jue Chan's such a posture, on the one hand, I am sour and jealous and I don't want Xuan Ye to like her, and on the other hand, I want to think about those things in the past, I don't know what this woman thinks.

And in just a few words, so many thoughts came out of her heart, and when she calmed down, she was shocked to realize that her current self was different from before. On top of love, there is no tolerance and generosity at all, Mama once said that once a person moves his heart, he can't help himself, and she finally began, and she can't help but tolerate others.

"Are you alright?" After Jue Chan saw that the noble man glanced at him, he continued to be in a daze, and asked again, only to see that the noble man finally seemed to be relieved, and responded, "It's okay." ”

Jue Chan was a little at a loss, not knowing if he had angered others by saying these words, so he weighed it a few times in his heart, and settled down and asked, "Is the concubine talking too much?" ”

"No, thank you for telling me." Lan Qi smiled politely, "It's just that I don't understand, why did you come to tell me that counting the people in this palace, I haven't said anything bad to anyone, but I have blushed at you, but you still have such kindness." ”

Jue Chan pursed his lips and said after a while: "But only the noble people said those words, you really want the concubines to live well, and the people next to you are just for themselves." ”

"Who doesn't do it for himself? You don't have to look up to me, you must have not forgotten those words that day, I still have those few words, which can be regarded as a tacit understanding between you and me. Lan Qi said lukewarmly, still keeping a distance from the Juechan clan and reluctant to be friendly, "You live well, everyone is peaceful." ”

Jue Chan's eyes were a little disappointed, but he heard the noble man say: "Today's kindness, I have it in my heart, thank you, except for that irrelevant matter, what can I help you in the future, the door of Zhongcui Palace has been open." On weekdays, you don't have to come and go, you live in Yikun Palace, and you always have to take care of some of the main mothers. ”

"Thank you for mentioning it, concubine remember." Jue Chan seemed to be a little happy at this time, got up and blessed and said, "There is nothing else, the concubine will retire first, because Guo Guiren will not attend today's dinner, the concubine will take care of the nobles in Yikun Palace, and I will not greet you at night." ”

Lan Qi was silent, in fact, she was just a nobleman, and the Jue Chan clan was too humble and polite. And when she left, her slender back was magnificent, and the woman who had not yet given birth was already born with such a body, thinking that when she came to Xuan Ye's side, she was just a thin little girl.

was pantothenic acid in his heart, and suddenly a spirit was excited, thinking that he was just a thin little girl who could make Xuan Ye like it, it can be seen that beauty is nothing in his eyes, if you want to like someone for a long time, you can't just be on one face.

The little nobleman was inexplicably proud, when Huanchun came in, he saw the master with a spring breeze on his face, and thought that Juechan had promised to say something good, Lan Qi only smiled and said: "I think of the emperor, my heart is happy, isn't it good to be happy?" ”

went to the banquet at night, and Concubine Duan said that she would not go, but Concubine Rong sent Ji Xin to persuade her to be sure to attend, first, to the Empress Dowager and the emperor, and secondly, not to make Prince Gong Fujin too proud. Lan Qi and Bu Guiren persuaded a few more words, and the concubine finally agreed, leaving a proper person to serve the princess, and went to the Qianqing Palace with the two of them according to the makeup.

The Qianqing Palace was brightly lit, and she saw other concubines and concubines, in contrast, Duan Concubine felt that Lan Qi was dressed very brightly tonight, and asked her how she suddenly had a temperament to dress up, and the little nobleman said perfunctorily that the festival should be more festive, and she thought in her heart: Women are the ones who please themselves.

Although the concubines and concubines of the palace and the relatives and ministers of the clan were all at the banquet, the position of the nobles was far away from the emperor, but Lan Qi was extremely comfortable sitting there, it was not dazzling or remote, you could enjoy watching Xuan Ye sitting on the top, with Duan concubines and cloth nobles around her, and then there were Duan Jing chattering, no one would care about her.

But this is just the idea of the noble people themselves, when the wine is more than halfway around, the concubines Rong went to the top to toast, and when they came down, the concubines deliberately went around to Lan Qi, and said with a smile: "Don't stare at the emperor anymore, tonight the emperor went to the Chengqian Palace, you stared at it for a moment, so that the concubine saw it, what do you think?" ”

Lan Qi's cheeks turned crimson, and she whispered: "The concubine doesn't watch it all the time, only occasionally...... A glance or two. ”

"I've looked at you three or four times, and I've been looking at you all back, so you can be more restrained." Concubine Rong smiled, half joking and half blaming, and then went back to her seat, Concubine Duan asked her what was the matter, Lan Qi was embarrassed to say, but a few people around her sat close and didn't notice, it turned out that her every move was so easy to be discovered?

Thinking in his heart, he subconsciously glanced up again, and suddenly looked at Xuan Ye, the emperor had a smile in his eyes, and his heart aroused Concubine Rong's words, which frightened the little nobleman and quickly avoided his gaze.

Probably because she blamed herself for being too carried away, Lan Qi drank a few more glasses of wine while being nervous, Bu Guiren's eyes were full of beads and followed Duan Jing around and didn't care about her, and Duan Concubine kept talking to a few other Fujin from other palaces on the side, no one cared, she watched the singing and dancing on the stage indifferently, and unconsciously drank a whole pot of wine in front of her, not to mention seven or eight taels.

Today's banquet is all high-quality wine, very fierce, she only feels sweet and glutinous, and she doesn't know the strength of the wine, when the concubine notices that her face is red and her eyes are scattered, she is already drunk. But Lan Qi was drunk for the first time in her life, and she didn't know how to be drunk, and when she was taken away softly, she asked Duan Concubine why she sent her away. Only when he withdrew from the Qianqing Palace, the cold wind outside blew, and his whole body tightened before he felt the pain of his skull swelling and cracking, and his body fell down softly, unable to stand at all, and frightened Huanchun several people in a hurry.

Chief Manager Li accompanied the first morning in his eyes, and without waiting for the emperor's signal, he had already ordered his little eunuchs to respond, and a soft sedan chair was ready to be outside the palace, but only to stuff people into it and carry it not far away, and the little nobleman who fell asleep and was unconscious actually rolled down directly from the seat inside, if it weren't for the clever eyes of the little eunuch on the side to block it quickly, she would probably have to roll directly to the ground from the inside.

Huanchun had never seen her so embarrassed, and she was very embarrassed in front of the people in Qianqing Palace, so in the end, Huanchun could only sit in a sedan chair with her, and she was supported before being sent back to Zhongcui Palace.

The drunken little nobleman doesn't vomit or make trouble, it's always good to serve, Huanchun and Yukui stayed by the bedside, Yukui asked if the master was unhappy to drink alcohol, but Huanchun clearly remembered that she was still full of spring breeze before going out, where could there be anything unhappy, and the two could only guard stupidly.

The banquet was dispersed a long time ago, Duan Concubine and Bu Guiren hurried back, Duan Concubine came to see her first when she entered the door, frowning and smiling bitterly: "Before leaving, the emperor also asked Gonggong Li to come to me to pass a message, let me take good care of her, what's wrong with this girl, why is she so drunk?" ”

Huanchun was also strange: "I was happy before I went out, and you saw it." ”

When he spoke, there was movement in the Chengqian Palace in front of him, and everyone knew that it was the royal driver.

After the concubine returned to the palace, she thought that Xuan Ye was going to Cining Palace, and she thought about washing up before preparing to take over, but before she could change her clothes, she said that the emperor had arrived, and she greeted her in surprise and asked why she didn't go to Cining Palace, Xuan Ye said that the empress dowager had left a few great-granddaughters to live with her for a few days, and it was inconvenient for him to go over.

Because Xuan Ye also ate wine, the concubine asked Qinglian to make a sobering soup, Xuan Ye didn't say anything, and seemed to have drunk a lot, just squinting on the kang and pretending to sleep. Concubine Tong went to change her clothes first, how could she be served by the wine, meat, fat and powder. But when she came back from washing, she saw that Xuan Ye was not on the kang, but sitting in front of the guqin, and her beautiful big hand seemed to be slowly brushing the strings, but she didn't touch it, so naturally there would be no sound.

The concubine's heart was slightly sour, she asked Qinglian to throw the guqin that day, but the next day Xuanye threw her down and went to Concubine Wen, feeling uncomfortable, so she took the qin out again, and broke two strings after playing it indiscriminately, and now she always wears a long armor on her right hand in front of people, just to cover the scars on her fingertips.

"The sobering soup is almost ready, and the concubine will bring it." The concubine smiled slightly, turned around and went out, and when she was about to reach the door, she heard the little eunuch talking outside, as if she was telling Gonggong Li what to say, "The noble people are sleeping very deeply, and they can't wake up for a while. ”

The concubine stood in the door, her heart sank little by little, and she only heard Gonggong Li say: "You go and keep an eye on it, in case the emperor asks, don't know." Degui is weak, so he should treat the eldest princess as an injury, and others will not say anything, so let the hospital pay attention. ”

"There you go." The concubine motioned for Qinglian to go out to get the sobering soup, and she turned back to Xuan Ye's side, he was still sitting in front of the guqin, as if he was thinking about something, looking drunk and sober, the concubine was usually the most coquettish and soft-spoken, but today I don't know what to do.

Xuan Ye looked up at her, and didn't seem to hear what he said just now about going to get the sobering soup, but asked: "I saw you drinking a lot tonight, you are weak, the imperial doctor told you to recuperate, you are still not allowed to drink anymore in the future, I will tell Qinglian and them to take care of you." ”

Almost the same words as Gonggong Li outside, the concubine was in a daze for a while, and she didn't know whether Xuan Ye was really saying this to herself, or if she was thinking about the Wu Ya clan in the back, fortunately, he was talking about Qinglian and not Huanchun, but fortunately, he could still see that the person in front of him was himself, not a virtuous person.

"This piano was used by Eniang?" Xuan Ye suddenly asked.

Concubine Tong's heart trembled, how could she mention this, but she also had to respond: "Ama said that her aunt had used it, but unfortunately the concubine remembered that her aunt was no longer there, and Ama said yes, and the concubine remembered it." ”

Xuan Ye smiled sadly, and finally reached out to brush the strings, and the mellow tone floated into the night sky, and he said casually: "I have never heard Eniang play the piano." ”
