Concubine, she rises step by step

When the Empress Dowager summoned her kindness in Shoukang Palace, the pure concubine of Yanxi Palace got the news.

"What is she going to Shoukang Palace for?" Chun Concubine asked with frowned eyebrows.

Baozi shook his head, "This slave didn't find out."

"However, ma'am, the Empress Dowager is in charge of thoroughly investigating this matter, will it be found out—" It can be seen that Baozi is a little weak.

Concubine Chun looked sideways at Baozi, "What do you see? Did I do anything?"

Baozi shook her head again and again, "No, no..."

Chunbi said cautiously: "You have to know that Kunshuang could have avoided death. If she hadn't been unable to calm down, how could she have hit the muzzle of the gun!"

Only then did Baozi regain her composure, "Your Majesty is right. But Concubine Sheng is cunning, and this servant is really worried that she will give the Queen Mother a bad idea."

Concubine Chun was not stupid at all. She said quietly: "You can rest assured that I will not be as stupid as Chang Lan. No one can find out. Besides, even if Yanxi Palace is really found, It will not come to Bengong."

Seeing her master's confidence, Baozi felt relieved, "Your Majesty is wise."

"By the way, ma'am, the young master said that he will come to Beijing tomorrow, and he can come to see you then." Baozi was overjoyed when she received the young master's letter. Thinking of the young master's unparalleled handsome appearance, she was filled with joy.

The pure concubine looked relieved, "Well, after doing the calculations, I haven't seen Yan'er for two years..."

She had a deep relationship with her brother since she was a child. Because her mother died young and her father was busy, Chunbi almost took on the role of mother, coaxing him, watching him, leading him wherever he went, and even hurried into the palace herself. , Yan'er cried when she heard it.

The reason why she entered the palace was firstly to consolidate her father's position in the court, and another important reason was that she could more or less plan the future for her younger brother in the palace. Hope you are doing well enough.

Therefore, getting close to Chang Lan is just to use the influence of the Chang family to let Yan'er keep a low profile and rely on the big tree.

Right now, Yan'er has been enlisted in the Central Guard, comparable to Chang Bojiang, the fourth son of the Chang family, and this is the most comfortable thing for her over the years.

Looking forward to, waiting, the pure concubine dreams all night about things that happened with her younger brother when she was a child, dreaming that her younger brother was being bullied again, dreaming that her younger brother was nowhere to be found.

Even the pure concubine, who was covered in sweat, was still a little depressed because of the plot in the dream, "Baozi."

Baozi was taking a nap beside the bed, when she heard the sound, she got up suddenly and said in a daze, "Mother, the servant is here."

Pure concubine wiped off her sweat, "Pour me a glass of water."

Baozi hurriedly went to pour water, and when she came back, she was basically awake, "Mother, are you having a nightmare again?"

The pure concubine took the water and took two gulps before suppressing the panic in her heart.

"It's okay." The pure concubine said vaguely.

Baozi also comforted him: "Everyone can do the opposite, so it will be fine."

"By the way, what time is it?" Chunbi asked, looking at the still gray sky outside.

Baozi replied: "It's already passed the fourth watch, and I will wait for you to sleep for a while, please?"

Chunbi suddenly became interested and she still had time, "I'm not going to sleep anymore. Come and help me. Yan'er likes the lotus root powder and osmanthus sugar cake that I make the most."

Baozi asked in surprise, "Do it now?"

But looking at the happy appearance of the empress, I really couldn't bear to interrupt, so I accompanied the master to start making glutinous rice balls a little bit.

Although the process was tedious and boring, Chun-fei had a lot of fun doing it. She remembered that when she was a child, Yaner was greedy for lotus root powder and osmanthus sugar cake. She secretly took a piece while the vendor was not paying attention, and was beaten by her father. , that is, from then on, Chunbi remembered the making of lotus root powder and osmanthus sugar cake.

After tossing like this until dawn, looking at the glutinous, crystal clear lotus root starch osmanthus sugar cake, the concubine Chun let out a sigh of satisfaction.

The pavilion leading to the Palace of Yanxi Palace.

Suo Shutong stood here early.

She wore the most gorgeous brocade clothes and used the most beautiful green embellishments. Her willow eyebrows, almond-shaped eyes, upturned nose, and crimson lips were all noble and beautiful.

It was extremely cold in the twelfth lunar month, but Suo Shutong rehearsed his voice and smile over and over again in this wind-filled pavilion, just to succeed in one fell swoop.

Finally, in the distance, it seemed that a man wearing a lake blue cloak was walking towards this direction.

Suo Shutong's heart was beating wildly, she tried her best to calm her mind, and slowly walked towards the opposite side.

Slowly, a brocade handkerchief falls...

Tang Yan was concentrating on what the emperor just explained, when she inadvertently saw a woman walking by in front of her.

Because of the distance, we can only see that the woman is wearing a lake green embroidered jacket and skirt, wrapped in a white fox fur brocade fur, but it can be seen from her hairstyle that she does not look like a concubine.

He watched the woman walk by, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that there was a brocade handkerchief on the ground. After picking it up, he saw the embroidery on it: Shu Tong.

"Shu Tong?" Tang Yan said silently.

For some reason, the wisps of perfume on the handkerchief were like Gu insects, disturbing Tang Yan's heart.

He walked uncontrollably in the direction the woman was walking.

"Girl!" Tang Yan walked quickly, and within a few steps, he came to a plum blossom tree.

Suo Shutong stood in the Wintersweet Garden, surrounded by plum blossoms, his complexion became more delicate, looking back, he met Tang Yan's eyes, the two of them exchanged glances, without speaking, it seemed that they had talked endlessly.

"You called me?" Suo Shutong said softly.

Tang Yan hurriedly clasped his fists in salute, "It's really abrupt for Tang Yan to disturb the girl's elegance, but I saw a handkerchief on the ground, I don't know if it belongs to the girl."

Suo Shutong calmed down, looked at Tang Yan with a picturesque look, and said rather shyly: "It's my handkerchief. I must have accidentally dropped it. Thank you, sir."

Hearing the sound, Tang Yan's heart trembled even more. At the moment when he handed it to Suo Shutong, he touched Suo Shutong's finger. Suddenly, he felt that he must have an indissoluble bond with this woman.

Suo Shutong retrieved the handkerchief very quickly, his face was blushing, he folded a plum blossom and handed it to Tang Yan, and said softly: "Shutong thanked the young master with the plum blossom..."

While Tang Yan was still immersed in Suo Shutong's stunning beauty, Suo Shutong had already walked sideways beside Tang Yan, leaving behind a wisp of fragrance lingering in his nostrils...

Finally, at [-] o'clock, Baozi, who had been wandering outside Yanxi Palace, saw the figure of a man.

Baozi held up the hem of her coat, jumped for joy, and shouted: "Mother, the young master is here!"

The pure concubine looked at her clothes in a hurry, and looked out the door frequently, her heart beating violently.

Tang Yan walked towards him, and saw that he had a resolute face, as if he was always on alert. There was a coldness and seriousness between his eyebrows that transcended his age. Although there was a smile on his mouth, he did not feel relaxed.

The pure concubine saw the younger brother whom she had missed for a long time in front of her eyes, and her eyes became sore and blurred with tears.

"Yan'er..." Chunbi called kindly.

Tang Yan's eyes also heated up, and he immediately saluted, "Chen Tang Yan, I wish you the best of luck to your pure concubine."

Concubine Chun then helped her younger brother up, "Get up, get up."

He warmly greeted his younger brother to sit down, seeing that his younger brother has now become a high-spirited Central Guard Army, he was very pleased in his heart.

And Tang Yan seemed to have something on his mind.

Chunbin quickly ordered Baozi to bring out the lotus root powder and osmanthus sugar cake, and said to Tang Yan with a smile: "Come, eat some osmanthus cake."

Tang Yan smiled, "My brother hasn't eaten for many years."

A trace of loneliness flashed across Chunbi's eyes, Baozi was about to speak, Chunbi signaled her to silence, and then asked, "How are you doing after all these years?"

Tang Yan was distant but politely said: "Very good."

The pure concubine's heart seemed to turn cold again.

"Elder Sister, I have something I want to ask you?" Tang Yan finally spoke.

The pure concubine immediately regained her spirits, "What's the matter?"

"Who is Shu Tong?"
