Biography of Concubine De of Emperor Kangxi

Huanchun was silent, Pan Xia came over and took Lan Qi outside, and said in a low voice, "Huanchun is full of anger, Yukui and Xiangyue were scolded just now, you should do me a favor, otherwise the two of them will have nothing to do today Eat, didn’t Xiangyue drop your jade bracelet this morning, don’t worry about it, Huanchun will use it to settle accounts with them.”

Lan Qi held her mouth in disbelief, and sat angrily under the eaves beside her. Everyone was helping to pack things in the room, and there was going in and out. Pan Xia seemed to have to go there, but was pulled by Lan Qi, pulling her beside her and saying, "Sit with me for a while."

In this Zhongcui palace, apart from Bu Changzai who was once the master, only Panxia has been with her the longest. Although Huanchun and Yukui are very good, they are always different in Lan Qi's heart, so she She will not let Pan Xia be with herself, even though there is a difference between master and servant now, Pan Xia is still the best sister in her heart.

"Am I different, have I changed?" Lan Qi gently shook Pan Xia's hand, just like the old days, she never felt that being a court lady was something to be ashamed of, and naturally she didn't shy away from being in front of others The queen got close to Pan Xia. Seeing her like this, Pan Xia also put aside the difference between master and servant, smiled and said to her side: "It's different, you look better than before, and you used to be the prettiest here. .”

"People say it's serious, you're always like this." Lan Qi twisted Panxia's mouth, and suddenly thought, "Yes, you are still the same as before, but I don't know what I have become."

"The maidservant will still be a maid in a few years, so what's the difference in being a maid? But you are different." Pan Xia stood up with a smile, and pinched the loose bead flowers on Lan Qi's bun tightly, saying, " In a few years, you will become a mother and have a little elder brother and a little princess. You see that Bu is always there, even if he never serves the emperor, is it not the same as before? We just arrived When she was here, she was so weak that she would collapse when the wind blew, and she was tearful all day long, and Nanny Wang said a lot of nasty things at that time."

Lan Qi touched the bead flower on her head, recalling the old times, indeed, even Bu Changzai was changing a little bit, how could she remain the same all the way from a court lady to the present, but she didn't know if she would become lethargic? People hate it, so they are extremely melancholy.

Back then the emperor fell in love with that silly little Chang Zai, she said she didn't care to Huan Chun, how could she not feel bad in her heart, if Xuan Ye really didn't like her anymore, it was because she was no longer that silly and obedient little girl She is always there but loses her affection. Although she will live on in the future, she will definitely live a very hard life. What is satisfied with rich clothes and good food is only her body, and her heart can no longer accommodate other people.

At this moment, Bu Chang came out of the house and saw Lan Qi sitting under the eaves with pouted lips and dangling legs, and came over to coax her with a smile: "It's fine if you stay in the house like this, the door is open here, as long as someone comes in See, how can the emperor's concubine be so disrespectful? Get up quickly, the house is tidied up, if you want to act coquettishly and lose your temper, close the door and make trouble."

"I didn't lose my temper." Lan Qi got up and smiled coquettishly, and was dragged back to the room by Bu Changzai. Sure enough, the books, papers and pens that were everywhere in the room disappeared, and all of a sudden, Huanchun and the others stood aside and did not speak. , Lan Qi was obviously very uncomfortable.

"It's all cleaned up, are you satisfied?" Bu Chang was smiling, and deliberately went to put a book on the Kang table in his hand, "There's a book left here, I'll take it first."

"What is it?" Lan Qi was curious. Xuan Ye had sent her many interesting books a few days ago, but she hadn't had time to read them yet. Seeing that Bu Changzai had taken away the last one, it was true. In a hurry, I hung up to read it, but Bu Chang was laughing at her, "Aren't you going to throw it away? How dare you, there are imperial seals on every book, don't you want to lose your head? Go ask Huanchun, is it thrown away?" Where is it still stored?"

Lan Qi is thick-skinned, just now she lost her temper and made everyone unhappy, now she is playing around playing with cats and dogs, and the atmosphere in the room is gradually getting better, but she still insists on letting Huan Chun take care of her. Books, pens, paper and ink are all put away, these days she doesn't want to see them again.

When going to bed at night, Huan Chun came to make the bed, but Xiao Changzai was nestled on the bed and refused to move. Huan Chun asked her to move a place, but she smiled and said: "You haven't had a good laugh today, look at you now face."

Huan Chun knelt on the footrest and said nicely: "Master smiles so happily during the day, others don't know what's wrong, but slaves feel uncomfortable no matter how they look at it, that's how you are. I hide it all in my heart, the happier I smile on my face, the more pain I feel in my heart, right?"

Lan Qi got into the quilt softly, only her head was exposed, and said softly: "I'm afraid that if I'm unhappy, it will make everyone unhappy, and it will spread to the empress dowager or the emperor. I don't want the old man to worry about me. As for the emperor ..." She buried her face in the quilt and said in a low voice, "I don't want him to know that I'm unhappy, I'll show him my joy."

Huan Chun smiled wryly: "Then hide and cry alone at night?"

There was no movement in the quilt for a long time, Huan Chun gently tugged, "You said first, those words need to be heard by the emperor, but whether the emperor listens or not, did you say it? If you don't say it, how does the emperor listen? Yinuservant Look, if you said those words to the emperor, the emperor wouldn't be so angry, think about what you said to the Lord Long Live?"

Lan Qi was wrapped in the quilt and rolled inside, whimpering and choking, Huan Chun came to pull it up for her, and wanted to put down the curtain: "My servant is going to sleep, you cry later, don't ask my servant to wipe your tears with a handkerchief." Seeing the person under the quilt suddenly come out and hold on to his arm, Huan Chun said with a smile, "Master is not a child anymore, it's not good to lose your temper like this."

"I know, but I feel wronged." With red eyes, Lan Qi pulled Huan Chun to sit down, wrapped herself in a quilt and curled up on the head of the bed, and said slowly, "I can hear what Ronggui said to me today. I feel really uncomfortable, she said that maybe one day she will never speak her heart to me again, I understand that in the days to come, either she has changed or I have changed, it must be like this."

"Master Rong told you the truth?" Huan Chun said, "Since you have heard the truth, you should be at ease, anyway... the slave girl said something disrespectful, no one suffered a big loss this time, three Elder brother is pitiful, but he cannot be defeated, he just couldn't go away quietly, and when the third elder brother dies, I will accompany you to offer incense and burn some paper money, okay?"

"This is inevitable. After all, a good child is gone. Ronggui is sad, and the emperor must be uncomfortable, but these things happen, which makes him even more upset." Lan Qi tilted her head and asked Huanchun after thinking about it. , "Do you think it would be better for me to confess my mistakes to the emperor and apologize?"

Huan Chun couldn't laugh or cry, "Master, who is the emperor? Is there anything wrong with him in the world? Even if you are right, you can't say that the emperor is wrong. Do you still hope that the person who confessed and apologized is the Lord of Long Live?"

"Then..." Lan Qi lay down on the ground, muttering, "I don't like it when you say that."

Huanchun put down the tent with a smile, and didn't argue with her any more. She knew that the master still had a childish temper. She heard that she didn't look like this when she was a court lady. Thinking about it, she knew who spoiled her temper. Long live I pamper people like this, and the Empress Dowager loves her like a granddaughter. After a long time, everyone will develop a temper, and the master's behavior like this is already considered good.

The sound of the door closing came quietly. Lan Qi turned over and loosened the quilt to reveal her body in pajamas. The earth dragon charcoal stove was no longer burned in the house. , and then wrapped the warm quilt around his body, his heart suddenly felt sore, Xuan Ye's expression during the day could not be erased from his eyes, he was so angry, he pinched his chin tightly, the feeling of pain still seemed to be still there.

But if that person really doesn't care and doesn't like it anymore, why is he angry and why is he angry?Lan Qi curled up and choked with sobs: "It's my fault, isn't it?"

In the dead of night, Qianqing Palace was still brightly lit. A little eunuch on duty came to ask the emperor what supper he wanted. Xuan Ye raised his head from the desk and asked what time it was. rest.Every time the lights of the Qianqing Palace passed through the midnight, someone would report to the Compassion Palace. The emperor's grandmother was always worried about his body, and her heart was warm when she was scolded, but she didn't want the old man to worry about it all day long.

On the empty dragon couch, Xuan Ye turned over and saw that the tassels that Lan Qi had wrapped by herself were still hanging on the tent. He couldn't help but think of that year's Lantern Festival night, when he opened the tent and saw that little man, neither humble nor overbearing, nervous but not flustered, his face The smile on her face was so warm, and she hurriedly lifted the quilt after being molested by herself. So many women wanted to keep the emperor, and so did she, but it was the first time for him to be tempted, and he wanted to stay by her side.

The imperial grandmother once asked herself what she liked about Lan Qi, but Xuan Ye couldn't answer. Now that she calmed down and thought about it, it seemed that she liked her purely, regardless of her delicate and soft temper, or her stubborn and twisted temper, she liked it when she was playing, and liked her when she was angry. I also like it, I like it when I love writing, and I like it when I don’t understand books, not to mention when I am gentle and considerate.

And today she stared at herself in front of the gate of the Compassionate Ning Palace and said that disrespectful sentence, it's fine if she doesn't hate it, but she still thinks what she said makes sense. When she grows up and integrates into the world of the harem, she is reluctant to let go. Obviously she is reluctant to let go, but she still blames her for being ignorant.

"Heh..." Xuan Ye smiled bitterly, laughing at himself for thinking about a disobedient woman in the middle of the night. That little thing can't escape his palm for the rest of his life. It's fine if you don't leave.

That night Xuan Ye slept soundly, but Lan Qi tossed and turned, and woke up the next day groggy, with blue eyes now, and went to the Ci Ning Palace. Prince Yu Fujin came to pay his respects, so he sent Lan Qi back by herself. When she walked out of the Palace of Compassion and Ning, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She didn't want Su Mala to come from behind, handed her a box of snacks and said, "Where is the emperor eating these few days?" No smell, this dessert was made by my servant in the morning, you send it to the Qianqing Palace for your servant, and Eunuch Li will take care of it."

Lan Qi held the box and hung her head without saying a word, the mother laughed softly at her: "Don't you still plan to wait for the emperor to come and pay you?"

"I'm afraid that the emperor won't even eat the dim sum you made because I sent it to you." Lan Qi felt melancholy, and before she could say anything, she turned around and left with the dim sum box in her arms.

Aunt Su Mala called Huanchun to come forward: "Take care of her well, it will be fine when she calms down, don't say useless words to disturb the master's mind, Wu Changzai can figure it out by himself."

Huanchun agreed, and quickly followed Lan Qi, reaching out to bring the snack box, but she was still in a daze, as if she was about to be robbed of something, and only let go after a long time, and then went all the way to Qianqing Palace, which was never before He was so nervous that he even said to Huanchun: "We don't need to go to the emperor, do we? Just leave the snack box for Eunuch Li."

Huan Chun just smiled: "Whatever you want, the servants can just do it."

But after avoiding it for a long time, I met Concubine Tong today. Lan Qi came from the Palace of Compassion and Concubine Tong, and Concubine Tong seemed to be going to the Palace of Compassion just after leaving Qianqing Palace. She is brighter than before, compared to Lan Qi, who is delicate and simple, the difference in status is obvious.

But she should have seen cowardice and prudence in the eyes of such a person, but under Concubine Tong's looking down, she only saw a little Chang Zai who was neither humble nor arrogant and fearless. She knew that Wu Ya had never been afraid of herself .

"I've seen Wu Changzai." Hearing Qinglian salute with several court ladies, Concubine Tong's clenched fists suddenly loosened. Chang Zai, I can no longer be as domineering as before.

"Let's go." Concubine Tong swallowed a breath, turned her eyes to the distance, and when her shoulders were shaking and was about to leave, she suddenly heard Wu Yashi calling herself, she turned her eyes, and saw Lan Qi leaning forward and saying, "The concubine has something to say to the empress."

Concubine Tong condescended and sneered: "What are you going to say? Talk about what happened that day, that you were not targeting Ben Gong? Your tricks and thoughts are clearly revealed, and there is still room for excuse? Ben Gong has hated you for a long time, you Thinking that if you get rid of this incident, you can change anything, everyone can rest easy, I have nothing to do with you for the sake of the emperor, you don't want to go overboard, weigh your own weight, and figure out what cloud mud is difference."

Originally, Lan Qi had something to say to Concubine Tong, but she hurriedly poured out a cart full of words. Mrs. Huigui said that Concubine Tong was impatient and impulsive, and she was impulsive at the slightest tease, and it was true.

The atmosphere was very embarrassing, Concubine Tong ordered to leave after finishing speaking angrily, but suddenly she saw Wu Yashi knelt down, her eyebrows curled up, and she asked coldly: "What are you doing? you?"

"What happened that day was because the concubine was sorry for the empress." Lan Qi kowtowed uprightly, her forehead touched the ground, and said calmly when she got up again, "No matter what, the emperor knows best in his heart, and he will not easily wrong the empress."

Concubine Tong seemed to be aroused by the unspoken sadness in her heart, her nose felt sore, she took a deep breath and looked away, and coldly ordered her left and right: "Not leaving yet? Prince Yu Fujin is waiting."

Everyone hurriedly moved forward again, Qing Lian saluted Lan Qi and followed.

Concubine Tong walked a long distance before Yukui and Xiangyue dared to come to help the master. Looking down at them shaking the dust off her skirt for her, Lan Qi suddenly said, "Huanchun, just send the snacks. I don't want to go to Qianqing Palace now."

Huanchun didn't dare to force her, so she told Yukui and Xiangyue to follow her carefully, first she took the box of snacks and headed to Qianqing Palace, while Lan Qi turned around and went straight back to Zhongcui Palace.

Along the way, she kept her eyes fixed and her face was solemn. She met Concubine Tong very suddenly, but she had thought about it for a long time to apologize to her. Both the Empress Dowager and the Emperor had told her not to take the initiative to approach Concubine Tong easily. Yesterday, when Xuan Ye pinched her chin, he also said that he had been balancing Concubine Tong's mentality to prevent her from bullying him, so she dared not and could not take the initiative to walk into Chengqian Palace. Such a sudden encounter today would be very difficult for her. Say, it's actually pretty good.

She thought she would feel better after saying these words, but now she felt heavy for no reason. Before she figured it out, she might not be able to breathe a sigh of relief.

Walking in a hurry, she will inevitably get tired, Lan Qi finally slowed down, turned her mind back a little, and heard Xiangyue say from behind: "Did you see that? Mrs. An doesn't know who he is beating."

Lan Qi turned around, the two of them were startled, and asked what was the matter, but she asked, "Who do you think Mrs. An is beating?"

When I turned back from the original road and turned another intersection, I saw a few people fell on the ground. Mrs. An Gui had long since disappeared, and Nala, who was standing by the side, promised to look carefully. The cheeks of the two court ladies on the ground were red and swollen. A more well-dressed man was kneeling straight, although he was not hit on the face.

Nala promised to see Wu Changzai coming over, and in case of amnesty, she greeted her and said: "You can persuade my concubine, Mrs. An just said it casually, but she really plans to kneel and die here."

The kneeling woman is Jue Chan, an official woman who just received the favor a few days ago. After a night of grace, she was sent to live with Nala. Nala promised that the two of them would go to the sewing room to get needles and threads. Mrs. An, I don't know where Mrs. An got angry. She kept saying that they were vixens who seduced the emperor. Nala promised to bear it, but Jue Chan didn't bear it. here.

"How long did Mr. An Gui kneel?" Lan Qi asked.

Nala agreed with a wry smile: "I said she could get up when she remembered, but I see, she is planning to kneel and die here." She even pulled Lan Qi back a few steps, and said softly, "Chenqie She didn't dare to report it, but the concubine was really afraid. Wu Changzai, since she came here, she has been looking for death and life several times in silence. "

"Looking for death?" Lan Qi frowned, and agreed to come with Nala again. She persuaded, "It's still cold on the ground, Mr. An just has a bad temper, and I'll forget about today's incident in a few days, but if you kneel down Come on, won't we bother each other?"

Jue Chan raised her head slightly and looked at Lan Qi: "Can the concubine get up?"

As soon as the voice came out, Lan Qi's heart trembled inexplicably, memories flooded out, she always felt that she had heard this voice somewhere before, as for this face, she remembered that it was the maid who came out of the sewing room next to Mrs Huigui.

But seeing Jue Chan standing up slowly while supporting the wall, Xiangyue went over to give her a hand, she smiled and said thank you, but her petite and thin body seemed to suppress a strong momentum, Lan Qi couldn't help but backed away Half a step later, the memory finally stopped outside the tent in the middle of the night in the paddock, and I remembered that heartless sentence: I won’t take it seriously as a kid’s joke.

"It's you?" Lan Qi's heart was beating wildly.Ronggui came here pretending to be Duangui that day, and said a lot to Huigui who came later. She was ignorant at the time and was surrounded by the two of them. , Now that I have woken up, I am stunned.

But Jue Chan smiled coldly: "I was once slapped by Concubine Tong. You gave me wound medicine, and later I was beaten by Concubine Tong's maid in the sewing room. You saved my servant, and I went to Huigui's side later. I've met you a few times but you don't seem to remember it, and the slaves don't dare to mention it."

Nala promised and sighed: "I didn't expect that you and Wu Changzai still have this relationship?"

But Lan Qi stood there dumbfounded, feeling that the more Chan spoke, the more familiar the voice would be, and the words she and Nalan Rongruo said in the tent that night echoed verbatim, no matter how much she refused Rong Ruo that night. , The affection between the two really existed, no wonder, no wonder Nala promised that she would seek death and life, but now that the emperor came to her, her future with Rongruo was cut off.

"Master, are you alright?" Seeing Lan Qi in a daze, Yu Kui came up to help her, "Is it windy here?"

But Lan Qi waved her hand, looked around, and said: "You are in such a mess, it's no matter who you meet when you go back, Zhong Cui Palace is just ahead, go to my place to wash your face, rest for a while, and then go, these two girls Poor, give them some medicine."

Nala promised what she could ask for, and came to support Lan Qi diligently, and the group hurried back to Zhongcui Palace. Bu Changzai saw this scene, and heard that it was Mrs. An who made troubles, but he didn't blame Mrs. An, but advised Jue Chan : "An Guiren has such a temper, why do you bother to talk back to her, and say a few words along the way, nothing is wrong, you have to learn to be more obedient when you meet in the future. Don't say anything else, how pitiful are the maids who follow you, Beaten for no reason."

Lan Qi sat on one side, watching the kind-hearted sister recomb Jue Chan's hair, and looked at it with a leisurely smile: "It's really beautiful. When I was with Huigui before, I felt fresh."

Lan Qi came over and pulled Guo Buchang and said: "I have something to tell her, my sister took Nala and promised to come and sit with you."

Bu Changzai didn't ask any more questions, turned around and took people away. At this time, Huanchun also came back from Qianqing Palace and was about to return to his life. Lan Qi signaled him to go out first. For a while, only Juechan and her were left in the room, and she closed the door with her own hands. , Turning around again, Jue Chan had already left his seat, knelt on the ground, bowed deeply, but didn't say anything.

"If you are really dead, what do you think will be the result if there are people who are right and wrong to investigate?" Lan Qi frowned, "And what are you begging me for? If I want to say it, you would not be here today."

Jue Chan looked up again, tears streaming down his face: "I only want him to be safe."

"Then you live well, only if you live well, everyone related to you will be safe." Lan Qi approached her slowly, stretched out her hand to pull her up, she was slender and slim, she felt that Zen was very petite, but Looking at the child-like face, it is no longer a child's heart, Lan Qi felt it the moment she touched it.

"I will take good care of you." Lan Qi let go, took half a step back, with a dignified and solemn expression, "I want you to live well, I don't pity you and sympathize with you, I just don't want others to know about you, you I only hope that he is safe, and I only hope that there is no trouble around the emperor. You remember, you are already the emperor's woman, living in the palace in peace, no one will come to make things difficult for you, but if you betray again Regarding the matter of the emperor, I will not let you go first."

Jue Chan was stunned, maybe she never thought that this gentle Wu Changzai would say such cruel words.

"Mr. Huigui pushed you away, and maybe he won't care about you anymore. If you want, Zhongcui Palace can come in at any time." Lan Qi said seriously, "There used to be a nanny here who said that life in the palace It’s all the same, how you live is all up to you, and you are no exception. It’s easy for you to die, but why are you still alive? Because you don’t want to die at all. If you don’t want to die, don’t mess around, or the one you miss People, they will be dragged to be buried with you, remember?"

Jue Chan knelt down again: "If Wu Chang is here, I will remember it forever."

Seeing the person in front of her bowing down again, Lan Qi suddenly came back to her senses. She just said those words for some reason. She couldn't see what she looked like at that time. I don't know if Concubine Tong was also facing her But she is not jealous or resentful, she just hopes that Jue Chan can live in peace, don't bring up the old things again, and don't get such unbearable things on Xuan Ye.

The past cannot be changed, and what should not happen in the future should never happen.

"Let's go." Lan Qi calmed down, "In the future, if you want to come and sit, you can come anytime, like Mrs. An, just follow her."

Jue Chan kowtowed again and bowed to leave, soon there were footsteps outside, Huan Chun came in quickly, and asked softly: "Why did it take so long, I heard Nala promised to ask why I was crying."

"Where's sister?" Lan Qi asked without answering, "Is she not coming?"

"Bu Chang is not here anymore." Huan Chun saw that she was frowning, so he changed the subject and said, "The snacks have been delivered. Eunuch Li said that the emperor has not had much appetite recently, so he asked if there is anything we can do to deliver, okay?" Coax the emperor to eat more."

But Lan Qi was immersed in what she said just now. She, who was pestering a roomful of people to lose her temper yesterday, actually said such cruel words to Jue Chan, "I will not let you go first".

Recently, she has always been like this, even facing the emperor, as if there are several Wuya Lanqis in her body, one of them will come out from time to time, and she doesn't know how to control her emotions. It used to be so simple. When I was a court lady, Work harder and be more patient, and the world will be balanced.

"You go and ask..." Lan Qi pursed her lips, and said to Huan Chun in embarrassment, "You go to the Palace of Compassion and Ning again, and ask the mother if there is anything else you want to send to the Palace of Heavenly Purity."

Huan Chun's heart relaxed, and he smiled happily: "Your maidservant will go now."

When Wu Chang came to Qianqing Palace again, it was already past the lunch time. She held the soup made by Madam Su Mala for the Empress Dowager, and told Eunuch Li that it was specially made by Madam Su Ma for the Emperor. Eunuch Li Who would have thought that the empress dowager didn't even have soup for lunch, so she hurriedly led Lan Qi in first, but said helplessly: "The emperor hasn't come back yet, and there is no news about the lunch here. After a while, the emperor will come back, Wu Chang is here Advise the emperor to drink more bowls of soup."

Lan Qi nodded again and again, and waited in the warm pavilion first, the warm spring afternoon sun was shining under the window, she looked up at the soft sunshine, the sun warmed her whole body, she didn't sleep well last night, and she was tossing again This morning, in this room with the aura of the emperor, his restless heart gradually calmed down, and he became confused unconsciously.

Eunuch Li learned that the emperor was coming back soon, and came in to invite Wu Chang, only to find that she had fallen asleep. He wanted to step forward to wake her up, but turned around with a smile and came out.

Xuan Ye had been busy all morning and was exhausted. When he entered the door, he heard Eunuch Li say, "Madam Su Ma has made some snacks and brought them here. Please the emperor have a taste." Don't work too hard when you are old. Just as you were about to enter the study, Eunuch Li stopped there and said with a smile: "Mammy also made soup, please have a bowl for Long Live."

Xuan Ye frowned and said, "I ate it earlier, you can keep it warm at night before I drink it."

But Eunuch Li laughed: "Wu Changzai sent it, and I'll wait in the Nuan Pavilion, waiting for you to drink it so you can go back to your life."

"You're getting more and more cunning as you get older." The young emperor's tense expression suddenly relaxed, he scolded Eunuch Li, and immediately took off his dragon robe. Eunuch Li took it over and laughed softly, "Wu Chang is sleeping. This servant didn't dare to startle me, if it's impolite, please don't blame the emperor for always being here."

Xuan Ye didn't care at all, he had left a group of people to go to the Nuan Pavilion alone, when he entered the door, he saw a soup cup on the table with a pair of soup bowls and spoons beside it, he walked around the Yimen and saw someone curled up on the kang sleeping soundly Lan Qi, however, was not in a hurry to come over to take a look first, but turned around and took the blanket on the couch, approached and was about to cover her up, but saw the little man's cheeks were flushed in the sun, and his forehead was covered. There was a fine layer of sweat beads, and the neck was also shining brightly. The tender and white skin was really lovely.

"I'll wake up in a while and blow the wind, and I should catch a cold again." Xuan Ye muttered, took his sweat towel, reached into her neck, and was touched by the cold silk, Lan Qi woke up startled, and opened her eyes to see Xuan Ye in front of her. , shrank back in a daze, and when he was fully awake, he hurriedly kowtowed on the kang to salute, but someone grabbed his arm and lifted him up and asked, "I'm not small. I just talked back to me in front of the Palace of Compassion and Peace yesterday. If you dare to sleep here, you are not afraid that I will find someone to throw you out?"

After figuring it out last night, Xuan Ye didn't even care about the previous things. At this moment, she wanted to tease her, to scare her, but Lan Qi suddenly rushed over and hugged her. Xuan Ye was taken aback, and couldn't help but He wrapped his arms around her and hugged her, brushing his hands across his back, he could feel her soft muscles and bones through the clothes, and asked with a smile, "What's wrong, who bullied you?"

"The concubine is wrong." Lan Qi whimpered, but she didn't cry, she pressed softly against Xuan Ye's chest, "Your Majesty, don't throw me out."

Xuan Ye smiled: "Where was that domineering little Chang Zai yesterday?"

"I can't find it."

"Then go find it." Xuan Ye sat down and pushed the person away from her body. Her body was warm, and her fine hair was stained with sweat, which was softly attached to her forehead. Xuan Ye wiped her with a sweat towel Sweaty, and blamed, "Just like this, what do I like about you?"

Lan Qi saw the smile in the emperor's eyes, she looked at her eyes as before, the cloud in her heart finally dissipated, that silly Wu Yalan Qi ran out again, foolishly smiling at the emperor, but she didn't know Xuan Ye loves to see her smile the most, a pure and penetrating smile, as if it can dispel all the troubles in the world.

"I hope that you can become a woman who can support the harem like Concubine Zhao, but I don't want the little Chang who used to be to disappear." Xuan Ye said gently, holding her blushing face, "It's because I'm too greedy, you That's a good question, I don't know how you live in the harem."

Lan Qi lowered her eyes: "The concubine met Concubine Tong today, and the concubine apologized to her."

"Apologize?" Xuan Ye frowned.

"It's always very uncomfortable to be stuck in my heart, but you and the empress dowager don't let the concubine get close to Concubine Tong. If the empress doesn't come to find the concubine, this thorn will always be in the concubine's heart." She continued, "It was a sudden meeting today, but the empress did not make things difficult for Chen Qie, and Chen Qie finally had the opportunity to say those words. There is no right or wrong in that matter, but Empress Tong Fei did not plot against others. You agreed to her request for elder brother , I heard that she also loves the elder brother very much, but in the end she was framed to poison the third elder brother."

Lan Qi raised her head and looked directly at Xuan Ye: "Just because she once bullied and abused my concubine, we shouldn't just gloat and watch her suffer, otherwise it will become what the nanny said, and put the face of other people's treatment of my concubine in the past." If this is the case in her body, no matter whether Wu Yalanqi can become a woman who can support the harem like a concubine, the little Changzai she used to be will definitely no longer exist."

Xuan Ye smiled deeply, and stretched out his hand to brush away the fine hair on her forehead, "Can you keep the former Xiaochang here? When we are all old, will I still see her?"

Lan Qi nodded, her smiling eyes were crystal clear: "You will grow old together with the emperor, and when the concubine is too old to bend over, I will still act like a baby with you." Xuan Ye hugged her, and heard her say, "The emperor and the emperor You're angry, don't reprimand me in front of outsiders, okay?"

"You can't help making me angry?" Xuan Ye couldn't laugh or cry, and pinched her waist, "Yesterday I hated me so much, and in the ten years since I became the throne, there are very few people who dare to talk back to me. You counted as one."

Lan Qi was afraid of itching, and also afraid that the emperor would catch fire in broad daylight, so she hurriedly left and got off the kang, came over to feel that the soup cup was still warm, and ladled out soup for Xuanye to drink.

Xuan Ye was a bit annoyed at first, but seeing that she was measured and respected, he came over with a smile, saw that the other bowl was empty, filled a bowl of soup with his own hands, and pulled her to sit down, "Eat with me. "

The two sat opposite each other, seeing the emperor moved the spoon, Lan Qi drank it herself, but the soup tasted strange, and she didn't dare to talk too much, she peeked at the emperor, he also had an inexplicable expression, the two looked at each other stupidly for a while , Xuan Ye finally asked: "Is it not good?"

Lan Qi nodded. Seeing that the emperor was drinking very reluctantly, she finally couldn't help but said: "Why don't you drink it? In fact... this is the Empress Dowager's medicinal diet. The mother specially stewed it for the Empress Dowager. Before, the mother asked The concubine brought the snacks. After the concubine met Concubine Tong, she felt uncomfortable and sent Huanchun to bring them. Later, she wanted to see you again. She couldn't find an excuse, so she asked the mother, and the concubine gave the soup to the concubine. .”

The emperor bit his lips lightly, the smile in his eyes seemed to wish to hide Lan Qi in his eyes, the soup was too much to drink, so he stretched out his hand to pull her up, and went straight to the study, regardless of how many eunuchs and maids were standing outside, he said generously It's over.

"I have a lot of papers to read, and I have to summon the ministers to discuss matters in the evening, and I may not be able to take care of the dinner. You stay here with me, and I will make some delicious tea and take the snacks made by my mother. I will go after eating." I won’t be afraid of starving when I see the minister.” Xuan Ye sat down in front of the case, pushed Lan Qi to grind his ink, saw her standing quietly by the side, and restrained himself. Personally, I didn't say a few words all afternoon.

In the evening, Lan Qi made tea and ate a few pieces of snacks with Xuan Ye. She waited until the ministers outside arrived and was busy waiting for the clothes to be delivered to her shoulders. When the emperor's figure disappeared from her eyes, Lan Qi remembered to go to Cixi. Ning Gong returned to life, Huan Chun said, when the nanny asked her to go back, she must go to see the Empress Dowager first.

When they arrived, it was time for dinner, the empress dowager and the noble concubine sent people to greet her, and Lan Qi came in after everyone had left. She saw the empress dowager standing up from the altar. Although she was old and moved slowly, she couldn't see it at all. It's the one with a waist. When she came up to help her, she couldn't help asking: "Is your waist okay?"

The old man smiled proudly: "Will I be able to take care of your worry-free grandsons?" He narrowed his eyes and saw that Lan Qi looked very good, and the melancholy in her eyes disappeared, and she was very happy, "You are reconciled." ?”

"Okay." Lan Qi blushed, blaming herself, "I made you worry, this concubine will be fine in the future."

"Where can it be good all the time." The Empress Dowager smiled, first pulled Lan Qi to offer incense to the Bodhisattva, watched her piously worship in front of the altar, and then went to the dining hall arm in arm, and said earnestly, "You always let me Don't say things like that, but people can't disobey the years. My age is already favored by God. If I want to leave, the one I'm most worried about is Xuan Ye. The first emperor left when he was young, and his biological mother also left every two years. , although there are brothers and sisters, but they all start their own families, the monarch and his ministers are different, he is rich in the world but he is the loneliest person."

After entering the dining hall and sitting down, there were only Nanny Su Mala and a few maids who served her personally. The Empress Dowager said without hesitation: "When the first emperor was here, I couldn't tolerate Dong E's family. Now it's too late to regret it. Sitting in such a high position alone, it’s rare that I don’t treat myself as an emperor and really like a woman, why can’t I tolerate it.” At this moment, the old man felt a little sad, and patted Lan Qi’s hand and said, “Stay with Xuan Ye well, don’t be afraid Stumbling, quarreling, and treating each other with sincerity will last forever."

Lan Qi nodded deeply: "The concubine has made a note."

Aunt Su Mala was standing aside holding the bowl and chopsticks, and when she heard the master's words, she turned her back and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.Only she understands that the early death of the first emperor is the pain of the master's life. Everything that the first emperor once cherished, the empress dowager is now protecting her grandson.

"Mommy." Lan Qi came over to pick up the bowls and chopsticks used by the Empress Dowager, and was happily saying that the emperor frowned at the medicinal soup at noon, but when she saw the tears of the nanny, she was stunned for a while, and the nanny smiled and compared to her. He hissed, quickly restrained his expression, turned around and said with a smile: "Isn't that right, I used a lot of medicinal materials, and the master doesn't like to drink it, but it's better than taking medicine."
