Chapter 25

Empress Dowager Jiang shook her head, "But the Ai family can't bear it, don't blame the queen mother for talking too much, you have been on the throne for three years, but the emperor's heirs are too weak, the Ai family selected concubines for you, just want you to spread out more. .”

"I've made a note of it." Duan Zhaoling's eyes were unfathomable, and that gaze gave Concubine Yi a chill.

He didn't stay for long, he visited his son in the inner room, and then he said goodbye and went back to the palace. Concubine Jing stood up, coughed a few times, rubbed her chest and said, "I heard that Su Wanyi was injured, Your Majesty is going to take a look?"

Duan Zhaoling took her hand and said softly, "Don't just think about others, you should take care of yourself more. Your body has been in bad shape since the beginning of the year. I will go to Cuizhi Palace to visit you at night."

Concubine Jing's blood-scarred face suddenly burst into a smile, "There are marinated concubine red crisps in the concubine's palace, would you like to have a meal together, Your Majesty?"

"I don't want to bother you, so I don't need dinner." After saying that, he took Wang Zhongming with him and left.

Concubine Yi was sitting on the couch, her expression was getting colder, Concubine Jing had been recovering from her illness for some time, I don't know what heartstrings your Majesty touched, that he wanted to go to her palace.

Except for the fact that Su Wanyi failed to go to bed yesterday and taught her to be slightly happy, but thinking that it was Lin Ronghua who entered the Kunyuan Palace the day before yesterday, and she added more points earlier, His Majesty was finally cold for a few days, ordered Wang Meiren once, and also visited his home Once in the palace.

But now, His Majesty is becoming more and more partial to him, even if Yao Guiren comes from a noble family, he can't compete with Lin Ronghua.

If you don't suppress the Su family again, I'm afraid that with His Majesty's thoughts, you will definitely not lose to Lin Ronghua in favor in the future.

Before leaving, Concubine Yi walked to Concubine Jing's side, "I will be working hard tonight, sister."

Concubine Jing smiled and said nothing, coughed softly, and went to serve Empress Dowager Jiang again.

He was going in the direction of Kunyuan Hall, but Duan Zhaoling turned his footsteps and went from the west. Wang Zhongming asked, "Your Majesty is going to Cuizhi Palace?"

Duan Zhaoling replied, "Show Lingyan Pavilion."

Wang Zhongming hurriedly ordered his followers, "After noon, Your Majesty should rest first before going?"

"Let's go to Lingyan Pavilion to rest."

Lan Ruo was leading Lu Fu, Xiao Guizi and other palace people to trim dry grass in the courtyard, when Wang Zhongming suddenly walked into the hall.

Lu Fu saw it first with her sharp eyes, she was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear, she hastily pulled Lan Ruo to salute, "I have seen the prince."

Before Lan Ruo could react, she saw Wang Zhongming bowed his head, and then walked in surrounded by his servants.

The silver-patterned brocade gown, with purple jade on the forehead, is as breathtaking as a pearl.

Sang Yu was coming out of the palace, and when she saw the situation in the courtyard, she stepped forward to salute and knelt down. Lan Ruo just woke up like a dream. The Lingyan Pavilion, which had always been sparsely populated, was suddenly full of brilliance, and the palace people hurriedly greeted the saint, Although he was in a hurry, his heart was full of joy.

No one expected that the emperor would set foot here in broad daylight, but this proves that Young Master Su is indeed favored by His Majesty.

Duan Zhaoling casually taught them to flatten their bodies, without stopping, looked around the courtyard, and went straight to the inner hall, "Is your young master in the house?" Lan Ruo thought that Mr. Ning's demeanor was unparalleled in the world, but now seeing the emperor is also very handsome Yi Feifan, both of them are dragons and phoenixes among men, and for a moment they couldn't tell which was better, so she hurriedly replied, "Miss...Miss is in the inner room, that Lin Ronghua..."

Duan Zhaoling put his finger to his lips before he finished listening to her, Lan Ruo could only keep silent and lead him in.

"You all go down, I can go in alone."

Lan Ruo withdrew knowingly, she couldn't hide her ecstasy, and she conveniently covered the two outer doors.

The furnishings in the hall are simple, but everywhere reveals the feeling of a little daughter's boudoir. Pass through the peach blossom spring screen, and open the vermilion veil to enter.

But there was a person sitting with his back behind the curtain of the bed, he stepped in, and the person said, "Put down the medicine bowl."

Duan Zhaoling had recognized her voice, so he continued, "I didn't bring the medicine bowl, so I can't come in?"

Duan Zhaoling's voice suddenly sounded in the quiet inner room. Lin Qingqing was obviously startled. She hurriedly turned around, stared at his face, and paused for a moment. How could it be here..."

"I heard that Su Wanyi was injured, so I passed by, so I came in to have a look." Duan Zhaoling said lightly, staying for a moment on Lin Qingqing's gentle and graceful face, and finally looked at the bed curtain.

Lin Qingqing sank into his eyes, knowing in his heart that he was definitely not just passing by. This Lingyan Pavilion is located in a remote place. If he didn't have the heart, how could he set foot here because of the dignity of the emperor?

She is happy for Su Yan, His Majesty has such a heart, it really taught her what she said, and being favored is not far and near.

I heard him ask again, "There is a serious problem, what did the imperial doctor say?"

Lin Qingqing hurriedly went forward to fix the curtains, and helped Duan Zhaoling to sit down. She wanted to say that there was nothing serious, but suddenly she changed her mind and said, "The imperial doctor said that the appearance is a flesh wound, but the inside still needs to be observed for a period of time. My son is weak, and I was sick before entering the palace, so I don't want this time..."

Lin Qingqing was very sad, as if she couldn't continue, she gently wiped her face, Duan Zhaoling sighed, "I know she is innocent, so she will inevitably suffer, I should learn more from you."

Lin Qingqing felt sweet in her heart when he heard him praise her family, and couldn't help but look at that handsome profile, seeing a trace of concern in his expression, she knew that he already had feelings for Yan'er.

What kind of favor is it for Yan'er to be visited by the emperor in person only once in bed?Thinking that although my family has received the Holy Family, the Emperor has never set foot in the Yaolian Palace...

Just as she was thinking about it, Duan Zhaoling smiled coldly, "Thank you for your hard work. With me here, Qing'er should go back to the palace to rest first."

Speaking these words from the emperor's mouth shocked her by no means, even when they were most tender and close, he had never said such caring words.

But thinking that the person in front of her was Yan'er, she comforted her family, rather than being favored by others, she would rather be a good sister of her own family, knowing that the emperor has never belonged to any woman, and it would be a good thing to be favored by his majesty in the future. Thinking about it, I felt better.

"The concubine will retire first, and a maidservant will come in to deliver medicine in a while." Lin Qingqing was reluctant to part with her, but her submissive nature did not allow her to stay for a while. She was afraid of losing Duan Zhaoling's heart, but her legs took root. Like, unwilling to leave.

Duan Zhaoling stared at the sleeping woman on the couch, and his heart gradually calmed down. For some reason, she was so delicate and naive, and she didn't even know how to please him, but every time they met, he taught him not to forget it, like a warm spring breeze, with a touch of warmth. Apart from Tang Wanruo, this is a feeling that other concubines cannot bring him.

Duan Zhaoling's heart twitched suddenly, and he looked up at Lin Qingqing who was still there, "What else can Qing'er do?"

Lin Qingqing plucked up her courage and asked softly, "If the concubine falls and hurts, will His Majesty be so concerned?"

Duan Zhaoling seemed moved, stood up and supported his shoulders, lowered his head and said, "It's natural."

"With His Majesty's words, the courtiers and concubines will be content." Lin Qingqing retreated, and Duan Zhaoling faced that face, suppressing the impulse in his heart.

When he sat back on the bed, he saw the little face in the brocade quilt moved slightly, he stretched out his hand, slowly cruising on the creamy and smooth cheek, with a slightly naughty hook, he thought she was about to wake up Unexpectedly, she twitched her eyebrows, waved away the annoying fingers, turned her back to him, and fell asleep.

Duan Zhaoling was not only not angry, but instead became interested, his bony index finger whirled along his cheeks, finely grinding on the plump lips.

Su Yan finally couldn't help it, grabbed his fingertips and said angrily, "Sister Lin, teach me to sleep a little longer."

But that annoying finger was even more presumptuous, sliding along the open neckline into a piece of smooth white tenderness, Su Yan let out a coquettish cry, sat up suddenly, clenched that arm tightly, and froze on the spot.

Duan Zhaoling's smiling face was right in front of his eyes, and this posture was so alluring, he was only wearing underwear, and his fingers were still on his chest...

"Your Majesty?" Su Yan rubbed her eyes in disbelief, as if trying to remember something.

"Very good, you finally recognize me." He smiled, but Su Yan was startled again, almost jumped up from the bed, straightened her clothes with one hand, and hurriedly saluted, "My concubine welcomes you!"

"I came to you, so I don't need so many vain courtesy." Duan Zhaoling gently grabbed her arm, and rolled up the thin sleeve, but seeing red marks and scratches on the delicate skin, he raised his eyes, and Su Yan withdrew Arm, said embarrassingly, "The concubine accidentally fell at Changqiu Terrace today, and His Majesty will laugh at you."

"Teach me to feel sorry for you." His tone was gentle, not like the sternness of the court, Su Yan replied, "The concubine offended the concubine Yi, please don't blame your majesty."

"Although Concubine Yi's temperament is flamboyant, she is diligent in managing the six palaces alone." Duan Zhaoling praised Concubine Yi quite a lot in his words, Su Yan could only feel chilling in her heart, as cold as ice.

Seeing her silent, Duan Zhaoling felt sorry for her, so she didn't continue, and picked up a pair of embroidered cloth beside the pillow. Su Yan was startled, blushing and hurriedly reached out to grab it, now that the two of them are alone, they don't care about it. According to the palace rules, hide behind her tightly, "Your Majesty must not see..."

Duan Zhaoling leaned forward, with his hands still on her waist, almost pressing on her body, "I want to see."

It was only then that Su Yan realized that she had completely fallen into his chest, and the original hiding turned into an unintentional temptation.

How could she not notice the strong lust in it?The long fingers pressed against the tender petals, and were about to invade, Su Yan suddenly embraced him with her backhand, and softly called out, "Duan Lang..."

The voice that was flattering to the bone, and the invitation with joy, caused the person on him to stop suddenly. He stared at Su Yan's face closely, only to see that beautiful face like the dawn of spring, extremely alluring, but those two words It pierced his heart precisely, and immediately extinguished the fiery desire.

Su Yan was at a loss and called out again, but Duan Zhaoling grabbed her, "Who taught you to call me like this?"

"No one teaches concubines... Ordinary people, women always call their husbands like this." Su Yan's small face was serious, and the lust in Duan Zhaolingfeng's eyes gradually faded, becoming clear and sharp. It has been a long time since I heard this title. It was only hers.

But why when the person in front of him said it, he didn't feel angry as he imagined, but felt very natural, as if it should be so.

An unexplainable emotion caused Duan Zhaoling to be absent-minded for a moment, but he immediately returned to normal. He took Su Yan's embroidery hidden behind him, looked at it and waved away his troubled thoughts, only to see the sparse petals and shapeless stamens , looked up again, but seeing Su Yan pursed her lips in grievance, he asked with a smile, "So it's because your embroidery is not decent, I'm afraid I'll see it."

Su Yan knew that her Duan Lang would definitely be effective, as expected, he concealed it very well, but whoever met her, she is the person who understands his temperament best in this world, it's just like this.

"People have their strengths and weaknesses, and poor embroiderers and concubines naturally have other advantages." Su Yan argued unconvinced, and Duan Zhaoling saw that she was cute, so she couldn't help but help her hair. ?”

"It's a pity that we have just met His Majesty and will be separated again. Even if the concubine is beneficial, His Majesty will not be able to see it." Su Yan leaned lightly on his shoulder and sighed coquettishly.

Hearing this, Duan Zhaoling stretched his long arms, took her into his arms, wrapped those little hands, and said firmly, "I don't want to part with it, but I can't be selfish. Don't worry, I will definitely make up for it in the future."

"Your Majesty treats his ministers and concubines well, but he also treats others as well?" Su Yan raised her face, Duan Zhaoling paused for a moment, "In my heart, you are different from them."

Su Yan pretended to be happy, but her heart felt infinitely sad. When the king loves you, he will lift you up to the sky, and every word is sweet.

But one day, when it is discarded like a shoe, it is not as good as the chaff.

Just listen to this, how can it be taken seriously!

Duan Zhaoling stayed in Lingyan Pavilion for an hour, but didn't touch her again. Before leaving, he told her, "While you are serving your mother and empress Buddha, I will send the most elite guards from the imperial court to ensure safety."

Su Yan knew that he had decided to leave, so she didn't ask him to eat.But it was the first time for Duan Zhaoling to meet such a cheerful woman, who was lingering and pathetic when she was happy, and cute and lovely when she was quiet.

Walking out of Lingyan Pavilion, he actually felt a faint sense of loss, as if he was looking forward to something, but it disappeared in a flash.
