The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 83
Ye Hanyu laughed in a low voice very relieved: "Concubine Shu has stumbled. Before the truth is found out, let's see how she behaves in the harem?"

"She won't care." Qingchen glanced at Concubine Shu and saw that she was still aloof. Even if such a thing happened, she still looked arrogant, "As long as the emperor believes in her, what do other people think of this?" She doesn't care at all."

Even though she doesn't like Concubine Shu anymore, Qingchen can still understand that a person like Concubine Shu can only die arrogantly, but will not live carelessly. Bow your head to others, even your opponents have something to admire.

The melons and fruits in front of them were removed, and a dozen dishes were served in front of everyone. Naturally, the empress dowager's side was different. After a few mouthfuls, someone came up to replace the new dishes.

The emperor first raised a glass to celebrate the ancestor's birthday, then the queen led everyone to toast, and then the concubines toasted alone.Qingchen, Ye Hanyu and Gu Chang got up and left their seats together to congratulate the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager saw the three of them standing together. One was calm and quiet, the other was elegant. Chang Zai compared it.

The emperor looked at the three of them, tilted his head and smiled at the Empress Dowager, "Who said that a woman's lack of talent is virtue? Only this temperament is different."

The old ancestor took a symbolic sip of the wine offered by the little maid, and the three of them knelt down again before returning to their seats.

The empress dowager glanced at the emperor lightly, and said noncommittally: "The women in the harem only need to know how to serve the emperor. If they are well-informed, their hearts will be high, and it will be difficult for the emperor to control them. However, there are one or two who are familiar with some poetry and books. The emperor has some common language, so he won't find it so boring."

The emperor smiled and said: "What the ancestor said is that the grandson understands what the ancestor meant."

After drinking for three rounds, Qingchen couldn't bear it any longer. He only felt his cheeks getting hot, so he said to Ye Hanyu, "I'll go to the imperial garden to let off the smell of alcohol, and I'll be back in a while."

Ye Hanyu hurriedly said: "The most important thing is to warm up your body without the cold wind blowing, even if you feel uncomfortable, don't stand in the wind."

"Understood." Qing Chen got up and supported Yun Lan's hand, kept fanning the wind with a handkerchief, and walked towards the apricot blossom forest.

The wind in February is warm and cold at the same time, Qingchen wine is strong, and I feel much more comfortable after being blown by this wind.The soft silk shoes stepped on the path of colorful cobblestones, and the feet hurt slightly. When the wind blew, the flowers and rain flew all over the sky, and fell on her shoulders and hair on the temples. She suddenly remembered the plum blossoms in the plum garden that night. As it fell down like this one after another, the man's warm breath rushed over, carrying a faint and cool plum fragrance.

Thinking of this, Qingchen's cheeks burned even more, why did he suddenly think of him at this moment?
She stopped under an apricot tree, looked up at the tree full of flowers, the sun filtered through the luxuriant flowers, and filtered down layer by layer, hitting her face in spots, and she didn't feel glaring.Dazed by the light and shadow, a figure appeared in her mind in a daze, as if a sharp knife had been pierced into her heart in an instant, and she couldn't help raising her hand to cover her chest tightly in pain.

Yes, there is always someone in my heart that I can’t forget. Under the apricot tree in spring, crystal clear petals fluttered down with the wind and landed on that person’s snow-white clothes. It seemed that he couldn’t tell the color, so he just looked back and smiled, Just a smile like this seems to stay in a dream forever.
