Leader Lan Palace

Chapter 2403 Seven Volumes 106
Qingzao's eyes were wet.

She turned her head and stared at Wanxi, "Ling Er Niang, I married into the palace late, and I understand things in the palace a little late. But I understand one thing in my heart: what Ling Er Niang said to me just now is to change No one in this harem will tell me."

"What's more, Cui Huan was originally a woman in Ling Erniang's palace, so it is even more commendable for Ling Erniang to say such words to me."

Qing Zao said, sniffling, "It must be that Er Niang put Eighth Brother and me in her heart, so she said such a thing... If I can make Er Niang like this, I will do whatever I want. Willingly."

Wanxi gently shook Qing Zao's hand, "Silly boy, I don't have the slightest compliment to you. Just because Cuihuan is a woman in my palace, I also bear the greatest responsibility in this matter." As for responsibility, if you weren't so magnanimous and virtuous, then let alone I couldn't keep Cui Huan, and even myself would be implicated."

"So this time, you really helped me go to Yongshou Palace, and you also helped me go."

Qingzao held back her nose, and laughed with a "hey", "It would be great if that's true."

Wanxi reached out and took out her handkerchief, and raised her hand to wipe Qing Zao's tears, "I have also read "Dream of Red Mansions". Mr. Cao's approval of you is indeed correct."

Qing Zao's face immediately turned red, "Ling Erniang also watched "Dream of Red Mansions"?"

Wanxi smiled and nodded, "I also know about Fengzao Palace, and I know that the concubine who can enter Fengzao Palace is a 'talented choice'. The person with 'Zao' in the name is naturally full of beauty since childhood. Such a girl My son, you really deserve to be elected to the palace, and be the imperial concubine of our Great Qing."

Qing Zao's eyes also brightened up, "Because of this book, I feel closer to Ling Erniang!"

Wanxi smiled, "Who says no? Although you and I have just been together in the palace for a year, I feel like you are my own daughter-in-law. My little fifteen is still young, and marrying a wife It will be a long time later, but now I have tasted what it is like to have my own daughter-in-law."

Qing Zao's eyes welled up again, but he still burst out laughing, "The imperial concubine Shujia passed away early, and I don't have my own mother and concubine in the palace. Then why didn't I just give up the order early on?" Mother has gone as her own mother-in-law~"

Wanxi held Qingzao's hand, "Good boy. You have paid too much for the matter of Yongxuan and Cuihuan; I will also tell you a word: From now on, no matter in Yongxuan's Whether it's in Xiefang Palace or in the harem, I will never let you be wronged."

The night wind in July brings the moisture from Haizi, cools it down, and washes away the heat from the body and heart.

Qing Zao stood half a step behind Wanxi, and together with Wanxi looked at the array of thousands of flowers in the summer night.

Xiaoqi and Jiujiu, one on the left and one on the right, holding Xiaoshiwu's chubby hand, running around in the maze laughing and laughing.On the other side of the low wall, Yong Xuan and Yong Xing stood side by side.

Although there is no grand scene of countless lotus palace lanterns fluttering by when the emperor was in Beijing at this time, there is also the most simple and true feeling in the world.

This true love has nothing to do with the court, nor has it to do with the royal family; the true love at this moment is not inferior to the night when the lotus lanterns are swaying.

Wanxi and Qingzao watched such a scene together, and couldn't help chuckling.

——Although there is a maze in front of them, the two of them have already found the exit and understood the way forward.

The night was getting dark, and at the moment of leaving, Qing Zao suddenly shook Wan Xi's hand lightly.

"...Ling Erniang, my Ama is in the south of the Yangtze River, and I am cooperating with Jiangsu Governor Chen Hongmou and Uncle Jin Hui to investigate An Ning's past. A letter from my former son said that An Ning must be let go!"

Wanxi's heart tightened, and she couldn't help turning her eyes to Qingzao.

Qing Zao slightly hooked his lips, "An Ning died strangely, and Ama went to the Shangsi Academy because of my fall from the horse. I heard that the Qing of the Shangsi Academy is capable, and I have already found out the clues. The emperor is just We sent people to Suzhou to ask An Ning face to face, but within a few days, An Ning died."

"I, Ama, said that the emperor did not give a clear instruction, but An Ning's sudden death has already given an explanation. My Ama loves me, but it is too late to save me, but even though An Ning is dead, she wants to escape with death. Guilty, but he was planning for nothing."

"It's whipping the corpse... Once my Ama finds out, I will definitely drag An Ning out of the grave and whip the corpse hard!"

Wanxi looked up at the palace lantern in the night.

Although the night is dark, as long as the light in my heart is not extinguished, even if the light is temporarily weak, as long as the center of my eyes is always focused on the light, and I am not afraid of the surrounding of the night...then one day, the light will eventually overcome the darkness, It will even light up the night! .
On July [-], the emperor followed the empress dowager to get up from the summer resort and go to Mulan.

The schedule for the emperor's trip was somewhat unusual.In previous years, the emperor usually stayed at the Summer Resort for many days; many times, he stayed until the emperor's longevity celebration on August [-]th.

But this year, they arrived at the Summer Resort on July [-]th, stayed for only one day on July [-]th, and got up early from the Summer Resort on July [-]th.

The emperor was so anxious that people couldn't help but guess the reason behind it.

Generally speaking, the emperor can do this either because of the war, or because there is an heir in the palace who is about to be born.But at this time, the country has arrived, and there is no war for the emperor to worry about; as for the matter of the emperor's heir, the only person in the palace who is happy is the imperial concubine.

Thinking of this, Concubine Shu, Concubine Ying, Concubine Yu, Concubine Rong and others were naturally happy to see the success, but made Empress Nala die full of depression.

In addition to Nala, there is another person who has a heavy heart, and that is the fifth son of the emperor, Yongqi.

From this matter, Yongqi could see that Huang Ama cared about Ling Guifei... and it has been so many years, it is not Ling Guifei's first child, Huang Ama still cares about it.

As for him, both the concubine mother and the concubine had just publicly offended Concubine Ling...

Now imperial concubine Ling is in the position of imperial concubine, and she is only under the empress in the harem.As for his mother-in-law, although she is also a concubine, it has been 17 years since Qianlong became a concubine ten years ago, and she hasn't moved a bit.

Even nine years ago, when his mother and concubine's 40-year-old Qianqiu had her first full life, Huang Ama seemed to have forgotten it, without any extra favors.

This made his position even more delicate and embarrassing - among all the princes, his mother and concubine had the lowest position.If it is said that a son is more expensive than a mother, he becomes the one with the lowest status among all the princes.

At this time, among the princes, the one who has the highest voice to inherit the throne is naturally the son-in-law Yongxie.If he wants to get closer to his son-in-law, he can't rely on his mother and concubine, instead he should have some hope that his concubine will go.

After all, in terms of status, the only one who can compete with the queen is the imperial concubine; and the imperial concubine's own son is still young and has not yet been vaccinated.

He dotes on Yingyuan so much, besides valuing the future of Suo Chuoluo's family, why isn't he showing his favor to Concubine Ling?Therefore, in these years, he himself has respected the noble concubine Ling, and respected her carefully... even, he did not hesitate to please her.

It's a pity that his own mother and concubine and his wife Fujin have ruined his hard work for so many years.

As an adult prince, he still lives in the palace, but he can only go to the study during the day and go back to Zhaoxiang's residence at night, all of which are far away from the inner court... After he got the news from the inner court, everything was irreversible up.

He was annoyed, he complained, but the two people who made him angry, one was his biological mother and concubine, and the other was his concubine Fujin.

He can still, how?
Just at the end of July, his father-in-law E Bi, who had already served as the governor of Shaanxi, sent another memorial to the emperor.

In the memorial, it is mentioned that the governors and governors of each province (governors, governors, political envoys, and inspectors) have money to support their families.E Bi believed that since there was this kind of money to support honesty, the imperial court would no longer have to give the officials and family members "supplied food" (supplied food: "family rations" given to officials from all over the country to support their family servants).

The emperor approved what he said, and issued a decree: "The governors of all provinces and the vassal yamen, whoever has a quota to set up family and horse pay, etc., will be eliminated. The cut salary will be used to pay for the soldiers."

E Bi's move was tantamount to grabbing some money and food from the mouths of the four governors and governors of the provinces!E Bi offended the four most powerful officials in every province in the world, and made all the big officials in the frontier regard him as a public enemy!

When Yongqi got the news, she knelt down and covered her forehead in annoyance.

If he wanted to seek the position of crown prince, how could he go without the support of the former ministers?But his own father-in-law "helped" him offend all the officials in every province in the world!

Why does Yongqi not understand that the reason why E Bi is so willing to be the first bird is because he has not been valued by the emperor these years.Even if he was the governor of Shanxi in the past, he was still the governor of Shaanxi when he was transferred again. He was still only promoted in the position of governor, and he had not been promoted for many years.

Coupled with the current embarrassing situation of the E family, this E Bi desperately wanted to please the emperor, so he did not hesitate to risk the displeasure of the world, and the above memorial made it clear.

The emperor was naturally happy to see the success, and would praise E Bi for it, but it was Yong Qi who was hurt by this move.

His father-in-law, for the sake of his own reputation and to improve his situation in the heart of the emperor, he doesn't even worry about his son-in-law...

In this way, his concubine mother and concubine Fujin offended Concubine Ling who had been doting on him for many years in the harem; his father-in-law "helped" him offend the governors all over the country again and again in the previous dynasty.In front of the harem, he was left passive.

He was not lucky enough to come to give charcoal in a timely manner, and what he waited for again and again would only make the situation worse.
.
With Yongqi so worried, August came.

Rehe's August has already been one step ahead of the capital, ushering in the clear autumn sky.After the sticky rain since May, the sky is so clear and refreshing, which makes people breathe a sigh of relief.

Because the emperor's longevity will be in August, when Yujia left the summer resort, from the Poluo River Tun Palace, the deer sentinel siege had already started day after day.

The princes and grandchildren were all in high spirits, and they all wanted to win the favor of the emperor in the siege.In particular, what happened just now that the descendants of King Dezhao of Xin County were not good at riding and shooting, and lost their qualifications to inherit the king's title, it was a wake-up call for all the princes and grandchildren.

No one wants to lose the right to inherit the title of prince because he is not good at riding and shooting, and leave it alone.

Therefore, this year's princes and grandchildren are particularly vigilant, everyone is on horseback, and no one wants to leave an impression in the emperor's heart that he is not good at riding and shooting.

As a result, this year's competition is more intense than in previous years.

After losing the opportunity to shoot in the row last year, Yongqi's desire to win was the strongest this year; but this year, he encountered such a situation, and even Yongqi was completely surprised.

Now as far as the eye can see, there are scenes of the princes and grandchildren mounting their horses and practicing riding and shooting desperately... Although Yong Qi has confidence in herself, she is inevitably worried.

This time, for the fall of Mulan, Yongqi annoyed E Ning to go, while Yingyuan stayed in Beijing to take care of the children, and Yongqi brought another "prince's maid" Hu Borong with her.

Hu Borong noticed Yongqi's restlessness these days.
.
Hu Borong is the most embarrassing about the status of the three wives and concubines in the Zhaoxiang Institute.For the other two, E Ning is the concubine Fujin, Yingyuan has a son, and although Hu Borong himself gave birth to Yongqi, he died young...

Hu Borong was able to come with Yongqi this time, so he cherished this opportunity and served him more carefully.

Hu Borong also knew that she was just trying to comfort her at this moment, but it could not improve the situation Yongqi was facing.Since it can't solve the problem, blindly persuading him may actually make elder brother feel more anxious.

Hu Borong chose to be silent and accompanied, and at night he tried his best to be gentle, using wordless body language to help Yongqi relax.

Yongqi forbears silently during the day, still wants to do her best in everything, and must not let her anxiety show at all; at night, this is the only way to vent the pressure in her heart... Therefore, these days, As for the matter of Hu Borong in bed, it really took more effort to deal with it.

It's just that every time you finish sweating profusely, it's called physical exhaustion, but he doesn't take it to heart.After all, he was only 22 years old, and it was the time when a man's body was at its strongest, and even such a little wear and tear would be enough to make up for it with a night's sleep, so he didn't take it to heart.

Besides, although it is said that the grassland on the Bashang is already cool in autumn, it is still in August after all.

The two of them were in the same place, so they became more passionate and tried their best, until they played and sang every night, and had fun all night long.

Every time she fell asleep to her heart's content, Yongqi would push away the quilt because she was sweating profusely, relying on her youth and strength, she would not take the cool autumn night on the grassland on the Bashang to her heart at all.
.
I don't know if it was because of such carelessness, when the emperor arrived at the big camps near Bayangou and watched the deer for days, Yongqi always felt some inexplicable pain in her leg when she got on the horse again.

But the pain is not on the surface, and nothing abnormal can be seen from the outside; the pain is hidden deep in the muscles and bones, and cannot be felt or seen.

Yong Qi also wanted to call the imperial physician to have a look, but firstly, he couldn't describe his condition accurately, secondly, he didn't want to reveal that he was caused by greed; thirdly, he was even more worried that the imperial physician would persuade him to rest and give up riding a horse.

He still relied on his youth and strength, so he didn't take the pain to heart, and didn't call the imperial doctor to see it.

He also thought in his heart, after all, he could call the imperial doctor to see him after he returned to Beijing, and there was still time for everything.

It was also for the same reason that Hu Borong didn't even tell about the pain in his leg, only he gritted his teeth and hid it.

The previous few days were fine, but this day when the deer was sent out, it took two consecutive days to watch the deer; on the first day, they chased the deer and drove the deer into a narrow place. In the evening, the next day, taking advantage of the daylight and the opportunity for the deer to drink water, they formed an encirclement from left to right.

Sleeping in the open in the mountains and forests this night, and suffering from the cold dew on the Bashang grassland in autumn, Yong Qi's legs ached even more painfully.

But at dawn, the deer was coming, and he only wanted to be the first in spite of everything, so he couldn't care less about his legs.

When it was daylight, as the deer whistle sounded all over the mountains and plains, the left and right encircled them.The deer fled in a panic, and everyone jumped on their horses, yelling and chasing after them.

In such a foggy forest, the sun has not yet risen, and the morning dew has not yet dried.The tip of the grass and the tops of the trees in the distance have even faintly received the frost.

Galloping like this, his legs were a real torture, and he couldn't even sit in the saddle.But he only focused on moving forward, going at all costs, so when the horse was soaring into the air and was about to cross a tree branch across his head, his legs couldn't pinch the horse's belly, and he fell off the horse's back On the ground!
.
The clan disciples and guards who followed around were all startled, they all hurriedly reined in their horses, dismounted and came to rescue him.

Yong Qi didn't want to show weakness, so she hurriedly waved her hands and said, "I'm fine! Get back on your horses quickly, it's important to watch the deer!"

The accompanying guards were still worried, so they all insisted on checking Yongqi's wounds.

Seeing Yongqi clutching her leg, she beat Qian'er to her knees and begged Yongqi to roll up her trousers.

Yong Qi couldn't refuse, so she had to roll up her pants.But there are only scratches on the outer skin, which is nothing serious.

Yong Qi also smiled reassuringly, "I told you earlier, it's just a fall, nothing serious! Come on, let's get on the horse together, we must win today's top spot!"
.
Yong Qi let go of her heart and got on the horse again, her leg seemed to be only a little bit of pain from a scratch on the surface; the pain that had been lurking deep in the muscles and bones before was gone.He is more courageous, desperate, and goes forward!

Not only the princes and grandchildren are the ones who watch the deer, but also Fujin who is the head of the inner court and the princes and grandchildren.

Today even Concubine Shu, Concubine Ying, Concubine Yu, Concubine Rong and so on got on their horses in person and accompanied the emperor to surround them.

Women don't care about the size of their prey, they just want to take care of their husbands.

Among Concubine Shu, Concubine Ying, Concubine Yu, and Concubine Rong, Concubine Yu, who came from Erut Mongolia and was a descendant of Genghis Khan, had the best riding skills.She took the lead, even throwing aside the guards beside the emperor, and took the quiver herself.The emperor set up a bow to shoot arrows, and she handed over the arrows.

Mian De Fujin Arishan (meaning "holy water"), who also came from Horqin Mongolia, also followed his husband Mian De.

The "mianzi generation" of the emperor's grandchildren are all in one place, headed by the eldest grandson of the royal family, Prince Ding Miande.Ah Rishan looked back, and saw that the closest person behind him was Mian En, and Mian En's Fujin Fucha family.

Although they are both the emperor's grandson, there are differences between the concubines. At this time, Mian De is already the Prince Ding, but Mian En has not yet been knighted; Fu Jing, the father of the Fujin Fucha family, was only a deputy governor.

Mian En is far from Mian De.

Mian En was also cautious, since he surrounded himself, he rode his horse and followed Mian De carefully, never going beyond one point.Even hunting, if Mian De has not found anything, Mian En will never shoot.

The Fujin Fucha clan of Mianen also stayed far away from Ah Rishan, so he deliberately dressed in a darker and more plain style, and never competed with Ah Rishan for merits.

Although A Rishan was careful to guard against this uncle, but Mian En and his wife were so deliberately cautious, which made A Rishan very satisfied, so he relaxed his guard against Mian En and his wife for the time being.

Since none of the emperor's grandsons dared to compete with Mian De for the limelight, Ah Rishan's eyes were fixed on all the princes.

Although the princes are all Mian De's uncles, they are all about the same age.Now that the emperor's position is still pending, the prince and grandson each still have hope.

——Not to mention far away, didn't Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, not have a son, but a grandson of the emperor directly, and passed the throne to his son?

Also, Lord Kangxi took a fancy to his grandson Hongli early in the year, and this is how the emperor is now.Then this story may naturally repeat itself.

Mian De is the eldest grandson of the eldest son, and the only prince among the princes and grandchildren, so even the princes are not as good as him.

After all, Ah Rishan is the emperor's granddaughter and the only daughter of Princess Gulun, her heart is naturally high in the sky.The only person in this world who can deserve her status is the Queen of the Palace.Therefore, in her eyes, no matter who can stand in Mian De's way, they are no longer her relatives.

Besides, those little emperor uncles are all concubines.Although he is both her uncle and her uncle, the relationship is not deep at all.

A Rishan fixed his eyes on Yongqi.

And Yong Qi's performance really made Ah Rishan "not disappointed". Yongqi took the lead among all the princes and grandchildren, and she went forward bravely regardless of everything, which really shocked Ah Rishan.

This desire to win is the last thing Ah Rishan wants to see!

When the siege ended on this day, the princes and grandchildren all presented their prey to celebrate the emperor's birthday.Sure enough, as expected, Yong Qi hunted the most, keeping Mian De under the pressure.

Ah Rishan was secretly annoyed, returned to his tent, and asked the daughter-in-law of the dowry family to invite the guards from his mother's house.

Her Ama is the third forehead son-in-law and the former Prince Darhan.Although she was later deposed as a prince, the emperor gave the prince of Darhan to his brothers to inherit, and gave her the grace of hereditary replacement; but at any rate, her Ama is still the son of Prince Darhan.

At this time, the emperor was walking around Mulan, and all the way along the way was the boundaries of various Mongolian tribes.The king of Darhan is Zasak of the Horqin Left Middle Banner, and he has a pivotal prestige in the entire Mongolian border that passes through the Mulan Enclosure.

A Rishan stared into the eyes of all the servants of his mother's family, "...the fifth elder brother's biological mother, Concubine Yu, is also from our Horqin Mongolia. But what is the identity of Concubine Yu's Ama, she is just a man in armor! Only after Concubine Yu gave birth to her son did she get the official position of a sixth-rank Yuanwailang."

"The son of such a humble woman, how dare to compete with my husband! My husband is the eldest grandson of the royal family, and even the son-in-law of Prince Horqin Darhan - on this Bashang Grassland , my husband can't lose to Fifth Brother!"

All the guards knelt down on the ground, touching their hearts with their hands.

"Grassland is Ge Ge's natal family, Ge Ge has a noble status, how can he be the grandson of a man in armor! I only know that there is Prince Darhan, but I don't know that there is a fifth elder brother!"

"I'm waiting here, but according to Gege's order—"

Ah Rishan smiled in satisfaction, scratching the embroidery on the cuff with his fingernails, and said slowly, "There is no need to do anything else. After all, the fifth elder brother is also my uncle and the uncle of Prince Ding. Besides, if you do too much, you will be called The emperor Ma Fu is suspicious."

"After all, the siege is not a day. The emperor Mafu will walk around Bayangou for many days, so we won't lose to the fifth elder brother!"

A Rishan bowed his head and thought for a while, "How about this, you are also escorting the surroundings, so let's ambush around the herd of beasts first. As soon as you see the fifth elder brother appearing, you will try to drive the herd away without calling He's got something!"

"This is the safest and easiest way. I believe that no matter whether it is the fifth elder brother or the emperor Mafu, they will not be suspicious...then let the emperor Mafu, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and the clan's vassals all be regarded as mere The fifth elder brother has no ability, that's enough."

All the guards agreed in unison, "Hey! Don't worry, Princess!"

For many days in a row, Yong Qi was no longer able to come out on top.

Not only was he unable to take the lead, but the further he went, the less prey he captured.On the last day, the prey he presented was not as much as Yong Xing, who was only 11 years old.

Yong Qi didn't understand the reason, she was like a caged animal, her heart was full of sorrow, but she tried her best to cover it up, not daring to show it.

With such a rush, the dull pain in his leg became more and more unbearable.

He couldn't figure it out, and finally attributed the frustration to his inexplicably aching leg—maybe it was because of the leg pain, the strength to control the horse was weak, and the horse couldn't run fast. It was one step later to arrive at the gathering place of the herd of beasts.

This idea gradually took root, making him more and more convinced.

He couldn't help thinking of Yongxuan who was also lame in one leg...

He also couldn't help drawing his soul in his heart: Could it be that his leg inexplicably ached on the way of autumn, or did it echo Yongxuan's pain and Qingzao's injury?
That is—retribution, right?
God will not repay his mother and concubine, so he has to bear it all.

The more you think about it, the more it makes sense.He could only eat Coptis chinensis dumbly, swallowing the pain for life, and never suspected the reason behind it.
.
In Beijing, when it's August, Concubine Xin can't stay idle anymore.

After all, it was still early for the emperor to return, so she started to pay attention to the matter of Xiao Shiwu's pox vaccination next year.

"You said, would the fifteenth elder brother dare to vaccinate in Wufutang? After all, Wei Wanxi's fourteenth elder brother died in Wufutang." Concubine Xin asked Le Rong and Le Yi.

Le Rong and Le Yi looked at each other, and their hearts skipped a beat.

Everything planned by the master must be done by the slave in the end.But what is the master planning this time, this is to murder the prince!

Le Rong and Le Yi received money from An Ning during their southern tour this year; now that An Ning died suddenly, the two of them have been worried for many days.Now that it is difficult to protect himself, how dare he get involved in even more terrible things?

——It's okay to say that the cashier is the biggest problem, but if he murders the prince, then his family will have to lose their heads too!

Concubine Xin waited for a long while, seeing that Le Rong and Le Yi just looked at each other, and didn't wait for their movement for a long time, so she couldn't help raising her eyebrows.

"What's wrong with you two? Why don't you talk?"

Le Rong said cautiously, "Master...it is because the imperial concubine Ling had already lost a fourteenth elder brother before, and now she has a fifteenth elder brother, so she treats it like an eyeball. The emperor also cares about the fifteenth elder brother. It is said that the fifteenth elder brother is the most similar to the emperor...so I think, next year, the fifteenth elder brother will be vaccinated, and the emperor and imperial concubine Ling will be extra careful..."

Concubine Xin raised her eyebrows, "Of course I know. But how can there be any defense in this world that can go seamlessly? As long as you have the heart, you can always find a space to go..."

Le Rong and Le Yi looked at each other again, and they both saw panic in each other's eyes.

Le Yi couldn't hold it anymore, and knelt down on the ground, "Master! This slave advises Master, please take back this thought!"

"You dare to stop me?" Concubine Xin was taken aback for a moment, squinted her eyes, bent down, and stared at Le Yi's face carefully.

"...Leyi, what are you doing? How many years have you been with me, and how many things have you done, why are you so scared this time?"

Le Yi shuddered, and hurriedly lowered her eyes to avoid Concubine Xin's gaze.

"Master, master... The slave dare not stop the master. The slave is, that is, uh, why does the master want to make wedding clothes for others at this moment? The slave boldly said: After all, the master does not have a prince at this moment, then So what are you going to do with us, the concubine's prince? Even if someone wants to care about it, it's the empress, concubine Yu and the others who are making trouble, so why do we bother to do it for them?"

Concubine Xin thought about it, then nodded, "It makes sense..."

Concubine Xin closed her eyes as she said, and clenched her fingertips tightly, "I just, I really hate that she blocked my way again this year! A good southern tour is my way to regain favor, but I still call her If I monopolize the emperor's favor, I can't swallow this breath!"

"Look at her smug look this year, I can't wait to hit her hard on the face! If I can't get rid of the smugness on her face for the time being, I have to try to stab her in the heart too! It hurts her, Then she can no longer be so proud!"

Le Rong felt ashes in his heart.

"Master, why are you putting all your attention on Concubine Ling now?" Le Rong couldn't help but said, "Isn't master supposed to put all his thoughts on the emperor this year? It's already August, master If you haven't recovered your favor yet, why bother to focus on Concubine Ling?"

Concubine Xin was startled, and stared blankly at Le Rong.

"...Yeah, you're right. What's wrong with me, why am I so full of thoughts on how to fight her, but I forgot to go to the emperor? Oh, yes, it's because of the emperor's thoughts, too It's hard to guess. I have used so much strength, but I still can't open the door in the emperor's heart."

"Compared to guessing the emperor's will, it is easier for me to fight with the noble concubine..."

([-] words plus more, I wish you a happy Valentine's Day~)
