Chapter 49

Yongning Palace

Plucking the strings with plain hands, the sound of the piano is bright and crisp, like the sound of a spring in a mountain stream, and it seems to be flying above the clouds against the wind.The Empress Dowager closed her eyes and tapped the beat unconsciously with her fingers. She didn't open her eyes until the end of a song, looked at the player playing the piano and smiled happily: "The sound of Yan Ran's piano is as clear as a mountain spring. When the heart of the piano enters, the temperament becomes more and more quiet. "

Huo Hanyan raised the corners of her lips, stood up and straightened her light purple clothes, walked quickly to the Queen Mother and sat down, and said with a smile: "Yanran is far behind the Queen Mother! The mother concubine once said that the Queen Mother could sing a song back then. It can be described as unparalleled in the world to attract a hundred birds to sing together."

"That's a lie." The queen mother frowned and said displeasedly, but her eyes were full of love, and she held her hand and patted it. "That kid Haoxuan can't do it?"

Huo Hanyan laughed out loud when she heard the words, watched the Queen Mother's expression quietly, and said cautiously: "How can a character like Elder Brother be comparable to Yan Ran?" Speaking of which, she hadn't seen him for many years, but still With the memory of the previous life, it should be back soon this time.

Her elder brother Huo Haoxuan was praised by the late emperor for his intelligence and sensitivity when he was eight years old. His writing is beautiful, and his painting and calligraphy are even more outstanding. None other than him.Xianzhou peony attracts a hundred butterflies, and a hundred birds sing in the inner palace.It's a pity... Huiji will be hurt, and love will never last.

Suddenly thinking of what happened in the previous life, I can't help but feel a little sad and worried.

"What's the matter?" Seeing that her mood suddenly fell, the queen mother asked suspiciously. "But miss him?" Although Yanran was still young when Haoxuan left the capital, she was always a brother and sister, so some concerns should be taken.

Huo Hanyan bit her lower lip, then nodded heavily, and slowly rested her head on the Empress Dowager's arm, feeling a little uncomfortable.

"Yan Ran hasn't seen her elder brother for four years." With her eyes closed, it was not four years, but 24 years.

"It's also thanks to your mother and concubine that he was willing to leave him for so long." The queen mother slowly stroked her head and sighed.

How could the concubine mother be willing to do so? Although she didn't say anything, she would take someone to clean the Nuanfeng Garden every few days, and strictly prohibited other people from entering and leaving, and touching any objects inside without authorization.The elder brother left the imperial capital back then, but it was really a last resort, everyone was innocent, and it was a crime to conceive a jade.Back then, when my elder brother's splendor was exhausted, if he stayed in the imperial capital, it might be a disaster rather than a blessing.

At this moment, the palace lady came in from the outer door and reported: "Qi Queen Mother, the Ninth Prince asks to see you."

Huo Hanyan couldn't help but her back stiffened, and she got up from the Queen Mother's arm.The queen mother didn't seem to notice, she looked at Huo Hanyan happily and said repeatedly: "It's just right, come in quickly."

"Yes." The maid Fu stepped back, and Huo Hanyan also stood up.

Ling Jiangyu was dressed in the robe of a prince, with soft brows and a refreshing air all over his body. "Jiang Yu sees the queen mother." The queen mother nodded lovingly, motioning him to sit down.Huo Hanyan's expression was cold and uninterested, and she used normal court etiquette, "My lord, please be well."

"Hanyan doesn't need to be too polite." Ling Jiangyu didn't expect that Huo Hanyan was here, and he didn't know how to say what he planned to say to the Queen Mother.It's not that he hasn't felt the subtle changes between himself and Huo Wang's mansion these days, but a man promises a lot, not to mention that he is still the king of the Qian Kingdom.

The Queen Mother spoke dissatisfiedly when she heard Huo Hanyan's unfamiliar taste. "They're all about to get married. Why are they so unfamiliar? Didn't Yanran always call her cousin in the past? Could it be that she's ashamed?"

Hearing the Queen Mother's words of getting married, Ling Jiangyu looked a little unnatural, while Huo Hanyan frowned unconsciously, knowing that the marriage bestowed by the late emperor could not be easily changed, and also knew that it was impossible for him to marry Ling Jiangyu, but he just felt panicked, as if there was something wrong with him. Stuff weighed down and suffocated.

Facing the queen mother's questioning, Huo Hanyan could only say that he would retreat to advance.

"Yan Ran just felt that she was too impolite in the past, now that she is older, she should understand some things, and she can't always be like a reckless little girl." One sentence made the queen mother laugh, and Huo Hanyan immediately felt relieved.

"The lord came here at this time, and he thought he had to discuss important matters with the queen mother, so Yan Ran took her leave first." Huo Hanyan saluted, and after getting the queen mother's approval, she left the main hall, and then took a deep breath.This time the Empress Dowager would definitely not think that she was really ashamed, in fact, she just didn't want to stay with him, and she felt weird before canceling the engagement.

Sure enough, as soon as Huo Hanyan left, the Empress Dowager's expression darkened instantly.

"Jiang Yu, what's going on between you and Yanran?"

With such a cold appearance, he was a completely different person from before.Even if it is for the matter of marrying a concubine, he, a virtuous king, can't even comfort his fiancée. Wouldn't the future be restless?
"Mother, I will try my best to appease Han Yan, and I will give them an explanation in Huo Wangfu." Ling Jiangyu is actually not very worried about Han Yan, because first of all, there is no possibility of turning around because of the marriage granted by the former emperor; Being affectionate towards oneself cannot be changed overnight, as long as one comforts oneself well, it will be fine.

Ninth Prince raised his robe and knelt down. "I implore the queen mother to let me take Miss Lin into the mansion in the name of the first concubine after Han Yan enters the mansion."

"Nonsense!" The Empress Dowager picked up the teacup and threw it at the Ninth Prince, splashing debris and hot water all over the floor.

"I implore mother and empress to be fulfilled. Miss Lin will ruin the reputation of her son and minister, but Han Yan is arrogant. If she enters the mansion in the name of a concubine, I am afraid that in the future..."

Huo Hanyan didn't know anything about what happened to the queen mother, if she knew she would be speechless, in her mind how Ling Jiangyu planned to marry or accept her had nothing to do with her.She went back to the side hall and opened the door, saw the people inside immediately closed the door, and asked doubtfully, "Why are you here so early today?" Usually they only come at the right time.

"Bored~" the man lay on the table with a stunning unisex face, and said out of boredom.

The noble and rich outside Ningyuanhou's mansion were lying on the edge of the gate. They were found by the people who went out of the Hou's mansion in the early morning. They hurriedly helped him in and asked the doctor to see him.
