Lu Jinhuan's hands hidden in her wide sleeves trembled slightly.

Before Yizhen left, what did he look behind Concubine Shu?
Do you think she will go too?
Lu Jinhuan looked blankly at the tea cup at hand, which was still filled with smoke.

Even so, what could she do? She wanted to see Yizhen leave in person, but that was impossible.

The emperor would never allow it. Going there would only make Xiao Yiqi more suspicious of her.

The relationship between Yizhen and her cannot be as pure as in the past, so naturally she cannot do anything to make him misunderstand.

Let him think that she has something in mind for him.

Lu Jinhuan thought for a while, pretended not to understand, and said to Concubine Shu: "Master Yizhen thought that he was thinking of the friendship between us in the past, so he asked the queen to come over. These things should be just talk, and the queen does not need to take it seriously."

"Besides, your Majesty doesn't look like she likes to go out. It does cause some trouble for your Majesty."

Unexpectedly, Concubine Shu did not answer, but remained silent for a while, and then said to Lu Jinhuan: "Sister Beauty, why do you say that? What's the trouble?"

She suddenly stared at Lu Jinhuan motionless with clear eyes, "I actually want to know what the person that brother is thinking about looks like and what kind of temperament he has."

Lu Jinhuan didn't know whether she was frightened by Concubine Shu or scalded by the hot water in the cup at hand. Her face was full of shock. She subconsciously looked at the servants in Chenghuan Palace. When she found that there was no one else, she felt relieved a little.

"My dear Concubine Shu, please be careful what you say."

"I forgot..."

Concubine Shu's face was obviously a little guilty, but she was lighthearted and didn't really care.

"I remember last winter, my brother brought a young palace servant to my place. At that time, I felt a little strange. How could my brother care about a palace servant?"

"Now that I think about the person who came back then, she should be the beautiful sister."

When Lu Jinhuan was mentioned by Concubine Shu, she thought of Liu Yuanjun and the begging palace maid.

At that time, she was caught red-handed by Liu Yuanjun, so she was really worried.

She clearly remembered that Liu Yuanjun also misunderstood the relationship between her and Yizhen.

It was Yizhen who came in a hurry and saved her once.

Thinking back on these things, Lu Jinhuan only felt a headache, and it felt like the things were getting messy after being cut.

Looking at her expression, Concubine Shu knew that the young palace attendant at that time was indeed Lu Jinhuan, and her guess was absolutely correct.

Soon, she suddenly mentioned another thing, "Sister Beauty, do you know what it was like for my brother to come to the palace to see me under orders?"

"Brother has an impatient temper and is not a calm person. He feels bored every time he comes to my palace. He even persuades me to go out for more walks."

"Said that if I don't go out, I will start to grow grass together with those books."

Concubine Shu laughed softly as she spoke.

Her brother is actually a very good person who cares about her, but he doesn't know how to speak.

However, when she saw Lu Jinhuan, the smile on Concubine Shu's face suddenly disappeared.

"Brother is actually very busy. It's not easy to run errands for His Majesty. He doesn't have that much time to come here to see me."

Lu Jinhuan felt something in her heart after hearing this. A few days ago, rumors spread between her and Yizhen, wasn't it because they interacted too frequently?

Concubine Shu's eyebrows slightly lowered, "Brother, I haven't come here very often before. Only last month, I always came into the palace, and every time I had to sit with me for a while before leaving."

As she said that, Concubine Shu's tone was very sighing and helpless, "Every time my brother comes here, he has thousands of things on his mind. Originally, he is not a person who takes everything to heart."

"It seems that all of a sudden, brother has become calm, and even his smiles have become cautious." Lu Jinhuan felt uneasy after hearing this. This was the first time that she had truly heard about Yi Zhen's changes from others.

It was more detailed than what Eunuch Zhang said, and it made her even more overwhelmed.

"My brother once painfully told me that liking this thing is like being poisoned and there is no cure. He told himself clearly that he must not do anything wrong, but he just couldn't control it and wanted to see her. Face, listen to her voice.”

"For no reason, I have a lot of protective thoughts in my heart. I want the other person not to be harmed, and I don't want to see the other person sad."

Concubine Shu's words struck Lu Jinhuan again and again. She wanted to run away and didn't want to listen anymore.

"Your Majesty, please don't say these words again."

Lu Jinhuan only said this sentence for a long time.

Concubine Shu looked at her and suddenly smiled, "I'm really not worth it for my brother. If you like someone, you will be as humble as dust. Doesn't all the efforts you make seem ridiculous to others?"

Lu Jinhuan didn't know what to answer Concubine Shu. Anyway, Concubine Shu didn't want an answer, but left after speaking.

The wind and snow in early winter were still very heavy. After Concubine Shu left, she stood on the edge of the courtyard outside and did not return to the inner hall.

This time last year, although there was also wind and snow, Lu Jinhuan remembered that the sky was not so dark at that time.

The dark clouds are not rolling in like they are now, lapping like waves in the sky above Chenghuan Palace.

It seemed to drown Lu Jinhuan, leaving no way for her to survive.

When Xin Yuan walked Concubine Shu back, he saw her standing blankly and quickly reminded her to go back to the inner hall.

Don't take it outside to catch the cold.

Lu Jinhuan smiled indifferently. At this moment, she felt that her intestines had turned blue.

When she met Yizhen outside the Jinluan Palace, she should not be so heartless. She should at least say something nice to him and show some concern for him.

Lu Jinhuan thought that the weather in Youzhou must be cold too, and wondered if Yizhen would suffer from the cold.

It was so remote and barren that Yi Zhen might not even be able to buy black charcoal for heating.

Lu Jinhuan only felt that she had lost her freedom. She could not do anything and was restricted everywhere.

What she said and what she did was all under the eyes of the emperor.

She laughed out loud at herself, feeling that she was being hypocritical.

Isn't this what she chose?
Lu Jinhuan realized one thing. People are not satisfied. After getting one thing, they desire another thing.

What she looked forward to the most in the past was days like this. What was she thinking about?

She is indeed too greedy.

Xin Yuan helped her into the inner hall, holding a hand stove for warmth. What a wonderful day.

However, she remembered something that Concubine Shu had just said.

That's because Yi Zhen didn't directly decide on the woman she chose for him, but he thanked her for taking such trouble for him.

When Lu Jinhuan first learned about this, his heart ached.

But knowing that Yizhen was not engaged and might meet those women again later, I felt my tense heart relaxed a little, at least not so early. (End of chapter)
