"The emperor is too accommodating to his concubines." Lan Qi suddenly felt that she was really a "favorite concubine", Xuan Ye cared about everything about her, even if it was such a thing, while forcing him to get the result, she would still take care of her own feelings, but she would no longer be like in those confused days, suffering from gains and losses at every turn, hesitating at every turn, she smiled happily at this moment, and said to Xuan Ye, "The concubine will wait for the emperor's result." ”

Xuan Ye nodded with a smile, hugged her and smiled: "It's natural, now we won't mention it, there is another thing at the moment, I know that you won't agree, but I still want to ask." ”

"What's it, the emperor can't worry less about his concubines?" Lan Qi didn't know the bottom of her heart.

"Changchun Garden has been built, I haven't been to see it yet, after the seal, I want to go over and take a look twice, will you go?" Xuan Ye let go of her and walked around and sat facing each other, "Back and forth that day, even if you stay in Cining Palace all day, others will not know, I will wait until the beginning of the year after Yinhe's wedding to prepare to live in the past." ”

Lan Qi didn't agree immediately, although she didn't mind going out secretly, but she really couldn't let outsiders know, otherwise she would accompany the imperial concubine and concubine to go shopping first, and it would be right and wrong. And how many people look at it when they enter the garden, sooner or later they will still be exposed, greedy for a moment of pleasure, and then trouble will follow, which is boring. In addition, I heard that Xuan Ye was going to move to Changchun Garden in the first month, but the Empress Dowager said that she would not prepare until the summer, so she couldn't help but ask worriedly: "The emperor went to Changchun Garden, leaving the Empress Dowager in the palace, can you rest assured?" ”

Xuan Ye said with a smile: "I have decided to persuade the imperial grandmother, let's go to Changchun Garden together, the imperial grandmother is afraid that there will be more noisy concubines, so I will bring a few less, anyway, there are still many repairs over there, and there is not so much empty space for the concubines to live." ”

At this moment, it was not early, Lan Qi ordered to prepare to wash and serve the emperor to sleep, unbuttoned his clothes for him, and said nonchalantly: "The concubines always follow the empress dowager, as for which one the emperor wants to bring, the concubines can't care." ”

"You're sour again."

"I'm afraid that if you only bring a few of them, the palace will be sour." Lan Qi took off Xuan Ye's cotton clothes, kneaded them on his shoulders a few times, and reminded, "Your Majesty, today's harem is very different from before, many things really can't be done like before, there are more people, more eyes, more mouths, and more rights and wrongs." ”

Xuan Ye also sighed, and said thoughtlessly: "I am also worried about this, there are more and more princesses of Elder Brother, and there are new concubines every few years. I think that maybe it should be the queen, and there is a master in the sixth palace, and many things are easy to do. ”

Lan Qi was stunned when she heard it, she wouldn't think that she would get such a blessing in her turn, she almost took her life in one sentence, she didn't have time to hide, and now there is the most suitable person in the palace, if the emperor wants to be the queen, it must be the imperial concubine, she was surprised in her heart, once the imperial concubine really became the queen, is the fourth elder brother considered a concubine? She didn't care about the rumors in the palace at all, but now she heard the emperor say the word "after Lihou", and she felt very different.

But Xuan Ye quickly said: "I said it casually, don't be careful, this is the real big thing, how can you decide it in one or two sentences." You're right, the harem is very different now, and many things can't be taken for granted as before, and you deal with them in the harem every day, and you can see it better than me. ”

Lan Qi only smiled: "The emperor don't take such complicated matters to discuss with the concubines, it's easier to go shopping in the garden, you wait for the concubines to return to the queen mother, you know, the old grandmother hates us sneaking around the most." ”

Xuan Ye smiled ambiguously: "It's interesting to be sneaky." ”

On Lan Qi's side, this matter should be regarded as the emperor, and then mentioned it with the empress dowager, it is rare for the old man not to object, but said to Lan Qi: "Since you want to go out, take a trip by the way, go to the house to see your sister, isn't she in her mother's house?" You haven't been home for so many years, and you're going to go back once, Taixing Shi is moving, anyway, you two always like to run out secretly like this, and I have to turn a blind eye even more. ”

Lan Qi heard that the Empress Dowager asked her to go back to her parents' house, and it didn't matter if she didn't go to Changchun Garden, but she was worried, saying that her home was slightly cold and she didn't dare to receive the emperor, if she left the emperor alone and went home, I was afraid it would be inappropriate, but the Empress Dowager smiled: "You should be Xuan Ye staying in the Qianqing Palace every day?" In these years, he often went out to visit the capital, but it was all things that could not be said, and no one asked if he didn't mention it. ”

"The concubine must go early and return early, this time it is your permission, but you can't blame the concubine for messing around in the future." Lan Qi had lingering palpitations about the last time she was punished by the Empress Dowager for kneeling, thinking about how young she was at that time, and how many things she and Xuan Ye did that now seem stupid and stupid, fortunately, the happiness at that moment was remembered in her heart, and it was a wonderful thing that can be remembered with a warm smile for a lifetime.

In this way, one day after the emperor sealed, there was no change in the palace as usual, but the emperor had already left the Forbidden City unconsciously. Different from the previous private visits to observe the people's feelings, this time I took Concubine De out together, both of them followed Fuquan to visit Changchun Garden as Prince Yu's entourage, that is, the people in the garden, and only regarded it as the prince to inspect the project.

After the emperor toured the south, he never forgot the Jiangnan garden, built Changchun Garden, in order to avoid the noise and listen to the government, he will live here for a long time in the future, Lan Qi followed and listened to him and Prince Yu said those words, and weighed in his heart that at that time, the harem concubines did not know what the situation would be. And she was worried about her family, worried that she would not have time to go back to her parents' house after visiting for too long, and hoped that Xuan Ye would take her away earlier, but she didn't dare to say anything to urge, although she accompanied and saw a lot of beautiful scenery, she was absent-minded after all, and when she left, she only remembered that the pavilions and pavilions were snowy, and she forgot everything else.

Xuan Ye didn't waste too much time, he left Changchun Garden shortly in the afternoon, and rushed to Lan Qi's mother's house, Lan Qi was nervous and speechless along the way, causing Xuan Ye to laugh at her: "This is the so-called hometown timidity?" ”

Lan Qi herself couldn't say why, but when she really returned home, everything she was familiar with was in front of her, and she found that nothing had changed for more than ten years, so she relaxed.

Since the mighty couple knew that the emperor was going to take Concubine De to Weifu for a private visit today, they had never slept peacefully, and they were trembling at the moment, and it was the little son-in-law who helped arrange everything this time. Counting the emperor and Alinga are now brothers-in-law, but there is also the identity of Empress Niu Hulu, and he is the emperor's brother-in-law, even Xuan Ye joked: "I and you are the most related." ”

The emperor talked to the male relatives in front, Mrs. Wu Ya led her daughter to the backyard, and now Lan Ying lives in Lan Qi's boudoir when she was a child, when Lan Qi entered the palace, her sister was still a child, naturally for more than ten years, the young lady who has not been out of the pavilion has lived in her sister's house, Lan Qi has long been accustomed to the wide and majestic palace, and now she understands that her home that she felt spacious when she was a child is really just a few rooms in the Forbidden City, and their family is indeed a small family, but because of this, she is innocent.

Even Lan Ying, who married into Niu Hulu's family and is used to seeing the mansion and compound, will feel different when she comes home, not to mention that Lan Qi has been in the huge Forbidden City in the deep palace for more than ten years.

The young woman in Xiaoyue looked good, not as sad and haggard as Lan Qi imagined, E-Niang said that the first few days were not very good, but now she has seen it, in the end, she has never seen a child, and it is not so deep feelings, if you want to say that the stalk is in her heart, it is that she may not be able to give birth for a lifetime, Lan Qi comforted her sister and said: "If my sister really doesn't have this blessing, a family as big as Niu Hulu's family, my sister will make decisions for you in the future, choose a close branch in the family, and give you two children." ”

Lan Ying smiled: "My sister has done everything for me, so don't you pity the mother who was robbed of her child?" ”

Lan Qi didn't expect this layer at all, and couldn't help sighing: "If it is, how can people not be selfish." ”

"I'm taking care of it, I'm not afraid of being blessed, I'm still so young." Lan Ying's cheerfulness made Lan Qi feel relieved and distressed, the sisters said thoughtful words, and many people who were confined after being appeased wanted to rest, Lan Qi accompanied Eniang to the front, only to hear Eniang mention, "Listen to my son-in-law, things have eyebrows." As soon as they reached the antechamber, before they could enter the door, they heard Alinga talking about it.

Lan Qi's family is small and can't hide people, she simply came in generously, her father and Ah Ling'a hurriedly saluted, she calmly sat down next to Xuan Ye, and the emperor ordered: "It's all your own family don't need to be formal, you continue to say." ”

It turned out that after Alinga investigated in the capital in many ways, he found that at the end of last month, someone had bought saffron in various medical centers and pharmacies in the capital, and even raised the market price for a time, causing several pharmacies to lose the safflower that came in later, so when it comes to this matter, many people remember it clearly. When I checked it out, I found that it was Alinga's brother and sister-in-law, the brother of Fakasu, who bought the saffron.

There is no one in the brother's house to linger on the sickbed, I really can't understand what to do with hoarding so many saffron, although there is no definite evidence of murder at the moment, but it should be that they did not do badly, in the final analysis, it is the infighting of the Niu Hulu family, and it is the shame of the family.

Originally, there was no need to tell the emperor about this kind of thing, but Alinga's new wife was the sister of the favorite concubine of the dynasty, and the emperor only cared about one or two sentences, so he had to do his best to investigate, naturally the newlyweds had a good relationship, and Alinga didn't want to wronged his wife.

Lan Qi doesn't know much about Ah Ling'a's personality, to say that the first impression was that he accidentally bumped into Niu Hulu's brothers and sisters in Cining Palace, and he didn't have any dealings with Ah Ling'a that time, but Concubine Zhao, who was in a hurry, has achieved everything today, and now I think about it all as if it was really fate, Lan Qi even felt that she would take care of Queen Niu Hulu on her deathbed, and it was also in response to today's fate.

"So, it has nothing to do with the concubine?" But coldly, the emperor suddenly asked.
