"Not now?" Cardamom is strange.

"The emperor is inside." Dill made tea, put on two plates of pastries, and was about to leave, but he saw the sixth elder brother looking at the pastries on the plate fixedly, and his movements were slightly paused, and the ghost envoy lowered his head and asked, "Sixth elder brother, are you hungry?" ”

Sixth Elder Brother nodded vigorously.

Dill was surprised for a moment, and when she got closer, she saw that there were still some pastry residues at the corner of his mouth, and the suspicion in his heart became bigger and bigger, and he faintly had a ridiculous guess. She smiled softly and said to the sixth elder brother: "Sixth elder brother, you can't restrain this pastry after eating it, so the slave maid will bring you another plate of soft pastry." ”

With that, he got up and walked towards the kitchenette.

After a while, Dill brought a plate of soft cheese and a bowl of rice porridge, and explained to Cardamom: "You go in for the sixth elder brother first, and I'll go in and talk to Niangniang about it later." ”

Cardamom nodded, hugged the sixth elder brother and fed him soft cheese and rice porridge.

Dill Fu picked up the tea and pastries again, and before going out, he glanced back again, and saw that the sixth elder brother preferred to eat rice porridge, and couldn't help but have a slight deep eye.

"Why did you go so long?" Cuiyin waited in the hall for a long time, and when she saw Dill coming, she asked a few more questions.

"Cardamom is back, holding the sixth elder brother." Dill whispered back.

Cuiyin took the tea and pastry, and when she heard this, she looked up at the dill, her eyes were full of doubts, but she still advanced to the side hall, and asked a few more questions after she came out.

Dill didn't dare to hide the slightest, and talked carefully with Cuiyin, and finally said: "I thought that the sixth elder brother liked to eat pastries, so he deliberately took the soft cheese that Princess Ankang was going to eat next, but he didn't eat it after eating a bite, and only drank rice porridge. She lowered her voice, "I took a closer look, the crumbs on the side of the sixth elder brother's mouth are Taishi cakes, and the pastries are very difficult to bite, and children will definitely not digest them if they eat them." ”

Cuiyin's face sank slightly, and she leaned into Dill and said, "I heard a few days ago that the queen doesn't like the sixth elder brother very much, and the people serving below will naturally not be as dedicated as before." ”

"How so? The queen has always loved the sixth elder brother the most. "Dill was a bit of a surprise.

"The sixth elder brother is almost two years old, and he can't speak yet." Cui Yin's voice was lowered, "I heard that the sixth elder brother didn't grow well in the womb, and his throat was damaged." ”

Dill raised her hand and gently covered her mouth, swallowing the exclamation that she almost blurted out: "Then do you want to take advantage of the emperor's presence to tell Niangniang about this?" ”

Cui Yin looked at her eyes and shook her head: "Wait a minute, let's talk to Niangniang alone, the emperor doesn't seem to be very happy at this time." ”

In the side hall, An Lingrong poured a cup of tea and sent it to the emperor with a smile: "The concubine asked the newly fried tea leaves, the emperor tasted them." ”

"Well, that's good." The emperor took a sip and put it aside, "I gave your father a house in the east of the city, the place is spacious, and the mansion is more magnificent, but the building is some years old, and it has to be renovated." I handed over the matter to the Ministry of Industry, and it was sorted out in less than a year, and when the time came, the family settled in Beijing and settled down. After speaking, he looked up at An Lingrong, as if he had something to say.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." An Lingrong noticed the emperor's abnormality, and asked with a light smile, "What troublesome things did the emperor encounter?" It's better to talk to the concubine. ”

The emperor wanted to speak and stopped, looking at An Lingrong's eyes with too many emotions, it seemed to be sadness, and it seemed to be angry, but it was more helpless and melancholy, he looked at An Lingrong deeply: "Rong'er, except for fame and wealth, I can't give you anything." ”

An Lingrong was stunned, and didn't understand why the emperor suddenly said this, so he only smiled and said: "Your Majesty, the concubines don't care about these ......"

"You care." The emperor interrupted An Lingrong's words, and his tone was a little heavier, "Rong'er, everyone in this palace is telling lies, only you are willing to tell me the truth, I don't want you to say some high-sounding scenes with me, I want to hear what you have in your heart." ”

An Lingrong was stunned, lowered his eyes and was silent for a while before he slowly spoke: "Yes, the concubine cares." She took a deep breath and said Lang Lang, "The concubines care, the emperor sits in the harem, and one heart is broken into so many petals, and only one of them is left for the concubines." The concubines care, the emperor stays in Jingren Palace today, and summons the noble people tomorrow. The concubines care more, the emperor can only give the concubines the name and wealth, but he can't give the whole heart to the concubines. ”

She looked up at the emperor, and there was a little mist in her eyes: "However, you are the emperor, you are destined not to belong to the concubine alone, in this case, the concubine does not want to love the emperor with a heart, and wants to keep a little love for herself, love your health, and love others." ”

The emperor choked in his throat and buried his head in no longer looking at her.

The silence was like a boulder pressing down on the chest, leaving both of them breathless.

"I ......" finally the emperor opened his mouth first, "I can't love you alone, but I must give you everything I can give you, so can't I?" ”

An Lingrong looked at the emperor seriously: "Your Majesty, it's really not easy for a concubine to live in this life, and I don't want to wronged myself anymore." Then he smiled bitterly, "The most important position in the concubine's heart must be reserved for the emperor, why should the emperor force it?" If the emperor feels that he has suffered a little, he will love his concubines less. ”

The emperor was speechless, slowly finished a cup of tea, and finally put the teacup lid down, and nodded lonely and heavy: "Okay." ”

For the first time, An Lingrong didn't follow the rules and got up to see her off, she just sat and watched the emperor leave, his back disappeared from sight little by little, and his eyes became blurred little by little.

She suddenly remembered Nian Shilan, the woman who loved passionately and straightforwardly, she once said, "If you love someone, how can you tolerate him to spoil other women", An Lingrong really felt the painful love today.

Yes, how can someone I love love while saying that he loves me?

Knowing that he can't just love himself, why do you want to love him like a moth to a fire? In the end, it will only go back and forth between love and jealousy, and finally it will be unrecognizable.

She didn't want to be like that.

An Lingrong raised his hand to wipe away the tears on his face, and spit out the turbidity that was stuck in his chest for a long time.

In Shoukang Palace, the Duchess of Meng Guo came to resign to the Queen Mother.

"Zhaorong, I'm really bothering you this time." The Queen Mother looked at Duchess Meng Guo, "If it weren't for the urgency of the situation, I wouldn't bother you with Qing Xiu." ”

Duchess Meng Guo took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Chengbi, I rarely see you worry about someone so much. ”

Chu Zhaorong and the Queen Mother were close friends in the boudoir, and they have been friends for decades, and their relationship is extraordinary. She has a strong temperament, she can cut off the relationship with the Chu family from a medical family in order to marry Meng Guogong, and she can also retreat for fifteen years because of Meng Guogong's concubine and don't ask about the world, but no matter how strong she is, now she has been ground to only a pool of stagnant water.

"If Concubine Rong dies, I'm just afraid that the emperor will go crazy." The Queen Mother sighed heavily, "This son of mine is good at everything, but he is too dedicated and loves someone, so he plunges into it and doesn't care about anything." This was true for Chunyuan back then, and now it is the same for Concubine Rong. ”

"The emperor seems to be unkind, but in fact, he couldn't be more affectionate. I just said casually, he really rewarded the gold medal for avoiding death, and I can't do it if I don't come. Duchess Meng Guo shook her head, "The love in this world is just a moment, why struggle because of this?" I remember that when Chunyuan died, he didn't eat or drink for ten whole days, and he almost followed. ”

The Queen Mother looked at the burning brazier and nodded abruptly: "Yes." ”

"You are an infatuated person, and the child you gave birth to is naturally infatuated." Duchess Meng Guo looked at the Queen Mother, "You ...... to Long Keduo"

"Ahem, ahem!" The Queen Mother coughed violently.

Duchess Meng Guo hurriedly stepped forward to press the acupuncture points on her, and kept scolding in her mouth: "You, you shouldn't have entered the palace back then, I said a long time ago, your body is poor, and you will burn out sooner or later if you stay in the palace." Now that she has become the queen mother, she has not seen any improvement after raising it for so many years, so it can be seen that she is still too worried on weekdays. How old are you, what are you waiting to do if you don't enjoy Qingfu? ”

The Queen Mother relieved herself, smiled and shook her head: "After so many years of Qing cultivation, your temper still comes as soon as you say it." ”

Duchess Meng Guo snorted lightly, withdrew her hand and got up and said, "Okay, I'll go back." ”

"Zhaorong, will you enter the palace again?" The Queen Mother opened her mouth to call her.

"No, I don't like the palace." Duchess Meng Guo looked back at her, and there were too many pasts hidden in her eyes.

After the Duchess Meng Guo left, the Queen Mother sat alone for a long time, I don't know what she thought, and a tear suddenly fell from the corner of her eye. She raised her hand: "Zhuxi, the mourning family is a little tired, help the mourning family go in and sleep for a while." ”

Zhu Xi glanced at the Queen Mother sadly, and carefully helped her into the dormitory to rest.

Since ancient times, people who are trapped by love have lived a miserable life.

A heavy snowfall in early winter covered the Forbidden City in the vast white snow, Zhen Huan slowly walked towards Jingren Palace with a soup woman, and suddenly stopped.

"Little master, what is this?" Liu Zhu stopped and glanced up at Zhen Huan a little strangely.

Zhen Huan raised her head, looked at the lonely and gray sky, and was confused: "Liuzhu, do you say that the emperor really loves me?" ”

During this time, the emperor seems to have returned to her before, everything is attentive, tolerant everywhere, no matter what she does or says, she is full of smiles, and the waiter gradually only calls her alone, when the love lingers, she will affectionately call her with the title, and the voice of "Guanguan" is full of endless love, so that she once had the illusion that the emperor loved her deeply.

In the past month, Zhen Huan seems to have returned to the time when she was the sole pet of the harem, but, for some reason, her heart is always empty.

Last night, the emperor cut the candles in the west window with her, and under the swaying candlelight, his eyes carried a heavy affection.

"It's okay if Guiren Qi moves out, I don't want her to stay in Broken Yuxuan." The emperor pulled Zhen Huan to sit beside him, "I thought, it's better for Broken Yuxuan to live alone for you, every time I came to see you before, the nobles were on the side, and I was really unhappy." ”

"That broken Yuxuan will be left alone with the concubine in the future." Zhen Huan pursed her lips and smiled, thinking about the near future, "When it is spring, the concubines will be able to drink with the emperor in front of the begonias in the courtyard, and the concubines will dance when the pear blossoms are all over the ground, and take refuge with the emperor in the summer." ”

"In autumn, I brew osmanthus wine with you, and watch the snow fly all over the sky in winter." The emperor looked at Zhen Huan deeply, "I want to accompany you, and you also want to accompany me." ”

"The concubines will always be by the emperor's side." Zhen Huan didn't comb her hair in a bun, her long cloud-like hair was draped behind her, she was facing each other without makeup, but she had a thrilling beauty, she raised her eyes to look at the emperor, almost indulging in the affection in his eyes, but for some reason, a trace of resistance suddenly appeared in the depths of her heart.

It's not the first time she has had this feeling, the emperor is looking at another person through her, but this time, the feeling is particularly strong.

When hugging her into her arms, Zhen Huan seemed to hear a vague word "Rong".

"Little master, the queen is still waiting." Liuzhu's voice pulled Zhen Huan's thoughts back.

Zhen Huan came back to her senses in a daze, lowered her eyes and said, "The hand stove is cold, go back and change it again." ”

Liu Zhu glanced at Jingren Palace, which was only two steps away, and then looked at Zhen Huan's face, and didn't dare to say half a word: "Yes." ”

This back and forth must have delayed a lot of effort, when Zhen Huan walked into the side hall of Jingren Palace, half an hour had passed, and as soon as she entered the hall, Fang Chunyi laughed and said that she was late and wanted to punish her.

Zhen Huan smiled shallowly: "Just after the snow, I felt cold outside when I went out, so I used a hand stove, who knew that it cooled down halfway, and I went back to change it, but it was delayed." ”

The emperor reached out and shook Zhen Huan's hand, nodded and said, "Sure enough, your hands are cold, warm up and eat again." ”

"Your Majesty." Zhen Huan lowered her eyebrows and smiled lightly, and sat down on the small stool of the emperor's head.

Fang Chunyi giggled: "The emperor treats Sister Guan so well, he thinks about everything, and it hasn't changed at all from before." She talked about that winter, when the emperor copied Yongmei's poems for Zhen Huan in Broken Yuxuan, for a while, Zhen Huan was in a trance and nostalgic.

Yes, at that time, her heart was hot and hot, and she loved the emperor straightforwardly and truly, but now, it is different.

"By the way, the emperor, now that there are all the vacancies in the palace concubines, can the emperor choose a few sisters to fill the vacancies?" The queen suddenly spoke, and said with a smile, "According to the etiquette of the harem, there should be one imperial concubine, two concubines, four concubines, and six concubines, and the rest are indefinite. ”

"The concubine and the imperial concubine are not in a hurry, but the concubine can be added." The emperor spoke in a deep voice.
