"Zhou ......" Lin Qingluan swallowed Zhou Chudui's name, "Zhou Shizi? What is he doing at our house? ”

"There were two times when I sent a message for the emperor," Lin Yaochen said with a smile, "You probably don't know that Zhou Shizi is now walking in front of the emperor, and the emperor attaches great importance to it." ”

Lin Qingluan: ......

Okay, my brother said that attention is attention.

"And then?" Lin Qingluan couldn't help but be curious, and continued to ask, "There were two times when I passed on the message, and I went there at other times?" ”

"Oh, once when I talked about the emperor's birthday, I didn't know what to prepare for the gift, Zhou Shizi was very enthusiastic, saying that he would help me find it." Lin Yaochen laughed innocently.

Lin Qingluan: ......

Seeing that his brother seemed to want Zhou Chuwan to be the martial arts master of his nephews, Lin Qingluan hurriedly persuaded a few words to dispel Lin Yaochen's idea.

Although I don't know why, because of her weak heart, Lin Qingluan didn't want Zhou Chuwan to get too close to her family......

"Yaochen, what are you two brothers and sisters talking about?" Shangguan Yan's voice sounded, Lin Qingluan turned his head, but he happened to meet Zhou Chudui who was standing behind Shangguan Yan.

The concubine blinked her eyes, and suddenly didn't dare to look over there, so she only lowered her head and hurriedly saluted.

Lin Yaochen said with a smile: "The noble concubine is worried about her family, and she is talking to her ministers about inviting a martial artist for the two boys." ”

"Oh, I'm thinking about that, too." Shangguan Yan smiled and took Lin Qingluan's hand to help her up, as if he remembered something, and said to Lin Yaochen with emotion, "Speaking of which, Yaochen, you have been guarding Northern Xinjiang all the year round, and you didn't even give a gift when you set up the crown, and you didn't take a word. ”

Lin Yaochen smiled and didn't say anything.

Lin Qingluan didn't say anything, she guessed that Shangguan Yan probably had the intention to give Lin Yaochen a word, but she didn't squeak and didn't give Shangguan Yan this opportunity.

Shangguan Yan waited for a moment, and without waiting for any response from the two brothers and sisters, he only smiled, did not continue the topic, and instead talked about the matter of Beirong's envoy.

He has been busy discussing this matter with the ministers recently, Beirong has the heart to discuss and is good, but Dasheng can't respond at will, and can't be completely unwilling, the scale of the period is quite controversial among the ministers, and the main battle faction, the lion opened his mouth to want half of Beirong, and said that the discussion was not good, so he hit Yunyun, and Shangguan Yan was very headache.

and the princess of Beirong who came with her, no one in the family was willing to marry, and they were all shirking. In order to show the demeanor of a great country, the princess can't marry a concubine, let alone be a concubine, so it's extremely difficult.

The matter was delayed for a while, but fortunately, there was no hurry, Beirong came to make an envoy who was going to stay in Beijing for a month or two, and the princess's marriage could be found slowly.

Now I just hope that the princess will be more beautiful, in case the son of that family is captured by beauty, Shangguan Yan doesn't have to force others.

Lin Qingluan listened to them discuss the political affairs of Beirong to sue for peace, so he consciously retired and left, Shangguan Yan also took the time to shake her hand, and continued to talk to Lin Yaochen about Beirong.

It was Zhou Chudui who had been watching Lin Qingluan leave, if it hadn't been for Lin Qingluan's turning around and glaring at him, Zhou Chudui would have thought that she really didn't see herself.

Silently lowered his head and smiled, Zhou Chuwan also hugged his fists and said goodbye to the official, saying that he would continue to patrol, but in fact, he walked a few steps quickly and caught up with the concubine and his party.

"See the concubine Niangniang, Niangniang Wan'an."

Lin Qingluan suddenly heard this familiar voice, and couldn't help but feel funny.

She glanced sideways slightly at someone who was saluting, and bowed slightly: "Zhou Shizi is hard." ”

"It's not hard, it's all within the minister's responsibility." Zhou Chudui got up, glanced at Lin Qingluan, and wanted to say something, but Lin Qingluan had already glared at him, and left with An Lan's hand.

An Lan was not as capable as Lin Qingluan, and couldn't help but look back at Zhou Chudui twice, and seemed to be snickering.

"Master, that little palace maid is laughing at you!" Monday suddenly appeared and whispered behind Zhou Chudu.

Zhou Chuwan didn't look back, and returned to the tree on Monday. He chuckled and said to himself, "That's what makes it special." ”

When you meet other guards, you don't have to say Lin Qingluan, even An Lan won't take a second look, right?

Zhou Chudu, who picked out the sugar and sweetened himself, went to the top happily, and Lin Qingluan returned to the Bixiao Hall and continued to paint.

The painting is not a birthday gift for Shangguan Yan.

At first, she thought that she was handy, and she wanted to draw something else familiar and familiar, but at that time, she also thought about what she wanted to paint, and when she thought of landscape painting, her mind was full of the sunset and sunrise that she watched under the waterfall.

What Lin Qingluan is painting at this time is the sunset.

Half of the sunset is outside the waterfall, half of the sunset is in the reflection of the water, and the brilliant orange gold took Lin Qingluan a long time to tune out, and at this time the reflection will be covered with a light layer of water color, Lin Qingluan is carefully tracing it.

She has never had to be served by anyone when she paints, she likes to do everything herself, and at this time there are only two palace maids guarding the door, Lin Qingluan is so attentive to painting that she doesn't hear the sound of approaching footsteps for a while.

"It's sunset." Lin Qingluan's hand shook when the sudden sound sounded, seeing that a drop of paint fell, it was about to ruin the sunset, Zhou Chudui quickly reached over to catch the dripping paint, and looked at Lin Qingluan helplessly.

Lin Qingluan kicked him angrily: "I was almost scared to death by you!" ”

Zhou Chudui laughed, he took out the handkerchief in Lin Qingluan's arms with his other hand to wipe the paint in the palm of his hand, took another brush, dipped it in the light-colored black ink that had been ground next to him, and traced it a few times on the cold pool that Lin Qingluan had not had time to draw in detail.

With a few strokes, he drew a small boat in Oopong, and the water next to it moved slightly, and the boat seemed to be still shaking.

Suddenly, Lin Qingluan's face turned red, and she was ashamed and angry to kick Zhou Chudui: "What did you draw!" ”

"How about Luan give me this painting?" Zhou Chudui avoided her feet and hugged her into his arms, "It's a birthday gift for me this year." ”

Lin Qingluan paused, a little embarrassed: "Then I'll draw another sunrise for you......"

"I'll have both." Zhou Chuwan said in a low voice, he pulled Lin Qingluan to sit on the chair together, dropped a kiss on her neck, and whispered, "I miss that day so much......"

Lin Qingluan: ......

Touch can't deceive people, Lin Qingluan instantly understood what Zhou Chuwan was missing.

She glared at him in shame: "Isn't it on duty?" How did you come to me? ”

"Passing by the neighborhood, let's take a look at Ah Luan." Zhou Chuwan gently rubbed the back of her neck, and her voice was vague as if she was coquettish, "I'm going back to the palace tomorrow, do you want to go out for a walk tonight?" ”

Going for a walk?

Lin Qingluan was a little moved, after all, it was difficult to go out again after returning to the palace, but at night, there was no market around, what was there to go out for?
