Chapter 180: Imperial Concubine

Maybe it's in a dream?

Lin Qingluan was cleaned, sighed softly and comfortably, and then fell asleep completely.

When he was woken up by Zhou Chudu's kiss, it was still dark outside, Lin Qingluan opened his eyes dimly, and Zhou Chudui coaxed softly: "Get up first, I'm going to send you back to the palace." ”

"Well......" Lin Qingluan was still sleepy, but she stretched out her arms and legs very obediently, and cooperated with Zhou Chuwan to dress herself, and then she was wrapped in a thick cloak, and she continued to sleep in Zhou Chudu's arms.

When I woke up again, I was woken up by Shangguan Yan.

Lin Qingluan got up with difficulty and called "Emperor", and then looked at Shangguan with a comfortable and implicit smug gaze: "You don't have to get up and serve, I went to the court, you were tired last night, rest for a while." ”

Lin Qingluan, who heard this, was a little sober, she answered, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Then the emperor is not too tired." ”

"Okay, I'll see you when I'm free." Shangguan Yan smiled and stepped forward to touch her face, and then left.

Lin Qingluan lay on the bed for a while, then she heard footsteps, and when she raised her eyes, she saw An Lan looking at her.

That look was really funny, Lin Qingluan beckoned to her, An Lan hurriedly ran over, and asked curiously, "Master, what did you do last night on Monday?" ”

Lin Qingluan raised his eyebrows slightly: "What did he do?" ”

"The slave doesn't know either, but he ran to the slave in the middle of the night, and began to retch at the slave and maid......" An Lan's eyes were a little helpless, and a little funny, "The slave and the maid thought he was deliberately provocative, and just wanted to find something to beat him, but he sat on the ground after vomiting, and told the slave that he was dirty......"

Lin Qingluan: ????

An Lan asked with some uneasiness: "Was he sent by Zhou Shizi to dig a pit?" ”

"Poofha......" Lin Qingluan was amused by An Lan, her little palace maid was too simple.

It is estimated that Monday said that he was dirty because he saw something that he felt he should not see, but An Lan understood...... There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with that.

Lin Qingluan nodded sincerely: "Okay, I'll talk to Zhou Chudui, and I won't let you dig a pit on Monday in the future......"

Almost couldn't help but laugh again, Lin Qingluan coughed lightly, lowered his voice and asked, "Did the emperor ask for water last night?" ”

An Lan then remembered the serious matter: "Yes, the emperor called for water twice, and only turned off the lights when it was over." ”

After speaking, An Lan was a little puzzled: "Master...... I don't know? ”

"Well, I went out to watch the fireworks last night." Lin Qingluan supported her cheek with one hand, remembering that she still showed a smile last night, but then she remembered that she was so busy yesterday that she forgot to see what Zhou Chuwan gave her at the beginning.

An Lan went to get the clothes to be worn today, Lin Qingluan turned around and opened the secret compartment at the head of the bed, and at this time, in addition to the tiger talisman, the dark red box sent by Zhou Chudui was in the dark grid.

The box was really not big, and Lin Qingluan couldn't guess what could be put in such a small box with a big and flat palm, and it stood on tiptoe lightly, which really made Lin Qingluan curious.

She didn't hesitate anymore and raised her hand to open the small box.

In the box, however, ...... A key?

The key didn't seem to be anything special, it really seemed to be just a key on a large lock, and there was a pendant hanging on the key, which was in the shape of a firework that I had seen last night.

Could it be a storeroom key full of fireworks?

Lin Qingluan didn't figure it out, and was going to ask Zhou Chudui the next time she met, she looked at the key carefully for a long time, and made sure that it was nothing special, so she put it back in the dark compartment and put it together with the tiger talisman.

As soon as she cleaned up, before the breakfast was finished, the will of the imperial concubine was transmitted to the harem.

The Queen Mother seemed to have expected it, and sent her a set of Diancui Tou Noodles to celebrate, with the Queen Mother taking the lead, everyone in the harem once again opened the moment to give gifts to Lin Qingluan.

Everyone else is fine, but Concubine Liang really can't sit still.

She begged the queen the evening before yesterday, and got a letter from the concubine, saying that she would intercede for Lord Yuwen in front of the emperor as appropriate.

At that time, Concubine Liang was full of joy, and happily went back to the palace to wait, but waited and waited, her brother's affairs made no progress, and now that the concubine was promoted to the imperial concubine, she wanted to send congratulatory gifts......

It's really stretched.

Concubine Liang could only bring her own hand-embroidered purse and yarn, and led the eldest princess to Wan'an Palace.

Lin Qingluan was sitting in the hall talking to the palace maid, and when he heard that Concubine Liang was coming, he understood a little.

She exchanged glances with An Lan, didn't say anything, only let Mu Yun go down first, and then invited Concubine Liang in.

It's just that the people who spread the news also subconsciously ignored the eldest princess, so that when they suddenly saw Shangguan Yanglan, Lin Qingluan was stunned for a moment.

Then she suddenly became angry: "Good concubine! ”

Concubine Liang was bending her knees to perform the Ten Thousand Blessing Ceremony, and when she heard Lin Qingluan shouting like this, she didn't react for a while: "Ah? ”

Lin Qingluan closed his eyes, turned around and ordered, "Take the new cloak of the palace and put it on the eldest princess." ”

The child was still wearing a thin cotton cloak in autumn, and when he came all the way, his face was already white, and even his lips were a little less red.

Shangguan Yanglan probably didn't expect Lin Qingluan to be like this, she quickly refused: "Thank you concubine, you don't need it." ”

"What's not necessary, look at how you freeze into!"

Lin Qingluan couldn't hold back in the end, and said to Concubine Liang again, "Are you stupid?" The snow and ice outside haven't melted yet, and it's the coldest time, so you wear these for the princess? You yourself know what a cape with fur is worn, and what Celestia wears! ”

Concubine Liang shrunk her neck by her training, and defended hesitantly: "This, the eldest princess rarely comes out in winter, so she didn't prepare ...... for her."

Lin Qingluan was twitched by this stupid brain, and asked the palace maid to take the new good fur this year, took a box and said: "These are brightly colored, and the palace will be sent over according to the size of the eldest princess." Let this palace see that you ignore the eldest princess like this, and this palace will definitely tell the emperor! ”

"Concubine, no, the imperial concubine is angry, it is the concubine's mistake, thank you the imperial concubine Niangniang......" Concubine Liang quickly knelt down and said, "The imperial concubine Niangniang's reprimand is right, the concubine must remember what Niangniang said, again, never like this again." ”

"Get up, what is the matter with this palace?" Lin Qingluan was too lazy to talk nonsense with her, so she said directly to the point, "This palace remembered, it's for your brother, right?" The palace told the emperor about it yesterday, but the emperor did not express his position at that time, and the palace could not guarantee the specifics. ”

"Imperial Concubine Niangniang!" Concubine Liang didn't expect Lin Qingluan to talk about this matter directly, she knelt on the ground and took two steps on her knees, bowing to Lin Qingluan again and again, "I also ask the imperial concubine to save my concubine brother!" ”

"How do you want Hongu to save it?" Lin Qingluan was fed up with Concubine Liang's appearance, and saw that the eldest princess was on the side, her already frightened eyes were round, she pursed her lower lip and softened her voice, "An Lan, you take the eldest princess to the side hall to measure her height first, this palace has seen her grow a lot taller in the past half a year, see if you need winter clothes, make a few more." ”

"Yes." An Lan walked over and bowed slightly to Shangguan Yanglan and said, "Eldest princess, please come with the slave maid." ”

Shangguan Yanglan didn't follow An Lan after being stunned, she only looked at Concubine Liang who was kneeling on the ground with some uneasiness: "Mother concubine ......"

"Concubine Liang, let's get up and sit down first." Lin Qingluan didn't want the child to be afraid, so she could only suppress her anger for the time being, "Eldest princess, this palace wants to discuss some adult matters with your mother and concubine, can you go play with An Lan first?" There is also a white wolf in the apse of the main palace, you can go and see it. ”

"White wolf?" Shangguan Yanglan is still a child less than six years old after all, and it is easy to attract attention.

An Lan took her hand and smiled: "Yes, a wolf with white fur, but his temperament is very docile, the princess wants to go and take a look?" ”

"Mother concubine......" Shangguan Yanglan looked at Concubine Liang again, and when she saw her chin bowed, she nodded timidly to An Lan, "There is this aunt." ”

"The princess doesn't have to be so polite, just call the slave Anlan." An Lan said with a smile, and then took Shangguan Yanglan and walked outside the hall.

Lin Qingluan watched the child's back leave, and when she looked at Concubine Liang's earnest face, she was a little angry and couldn't control herself, she said coldly: "Kneel down for this palace!" ”
