The Path of the Pharmacist's Favorite Concubine

Chapter 81 Thoughts
After the new year's festival, it finally entered the early spring, but the early spring in the imperial capital was still very cold, the snow had already started to melt, the air was full of cold wind, and the breath was filled with white mist.

Huilan wore a crimson cloak of folded branches and white plums, and headed towards the Palace of Compassion.

Aunt Yan sent the big palace maid to summon her to chant scriptures for the Queen Mother every few days, but this time it was delayed for a few days, mainly because the out-of-town women needed to meet the Queen Mother, and there were too many guests, so they couldn't take care of Huilan.

After entering the inner hall, Lilac took off her cloak for her, and stood in the corner to wait.

Huilan went in and saluted first, "Ask Empress Dowager Yi'an, Empress Dowager, have you been in good health these few days?"

"Well, my head hurts a little, and I didn't sleep much. It's still useful for you to recite the scriptures. These days, I have ordered my wife to see me. Some people can't see me, but I can't see them. The trouble makes my family's head big."

"Queen Mother, I'll help you rub and loosen your muscles and bones. After you're done, you can lie down and listen to it. It will be effective."

Huilan smiled obediently and asked for instructions.

The Queen Mother nodded amiably, "Okay."

Then Huilan stepped forward to help her massage her head to soothe her tense nerves.

In fact, I have been to the Compassionate Ning Palace a few times, and I don't have much time to chat. The main purpose is to help the Empress Dowager chant scriptures. She suffers from severe insomnia and just wants to sleep well.

But even so, it is a big face for Huilan to enter the gate of the Palace of Compassion and Peace, and it is a great face for the prince.

You must know that the emperor's concubines, even the third concubine and the queen, are not liked by the queen mother, and it is not easy to see her old man.

After massaging her for a while to loosen her shoulders and back, and then let her lie down, Nanny Yang lit a small piece of benzoin that she made.

Now most of the time, I have to rely on Huilan to make benzoin to sleep for a while.

Huilan sat at the side and began to recite the scriptures, she didn't need a book, she came here casually, her voice was clear and catchy, which made the Queen Mother feel comfortable and drowsy.

No one in the inner hall dared to speak, even dared to pant loudly, only Huilan's ups and downs voice was gentle with a unique rhythm.

After a while, the queen mother fell asleep and snored.

Huilan didn't stop but continued to read the scriptures, sitting there not in a hurry, but very calm and peaceful.

Nanny Yan nodded slightly appreciatively. This girl has an attractive temperament, which makes people feel very peaceful and comfortable. No wonder the prince dotes on her, she has her own advantages.

By the time a volume of scriptures was finished, the queen mother had already fallen asleep.

Huilan stood up with a smile and saluted, then exited the inner hall, followed by Sister Yan.

"The empress dowager said that you are a good boy, and no one would dare to bully you if you follow the rules."

"Thanks for the reminder, ma'am."

When Huilan returned to Qinghui Garden, Ding Xiang asked on the way, "I'm back now, and I didn't say anything."

"Silly girl, the Empress Dowager doesn't need to talk to me so much. I have some usefulness with her and that's the biggest face. Some people can't even enter the gate of the Palace of Compassion and Peace. Don't worry, take your time."

"Yes."

It's spring, and the palace is starting to prepare for the draft and the prince's wedding.

Xiu Nu has already entered the palace audition, and the west side hall is full of people these days, and it seems very lively.

Huilan has been nestling in the yard for the past few days and didn't go out. She was too lazy to move due to the chilly weather.

Xiao Yuanzi came in, "Master."

"Come in, do you have something to say?"

"The servant saw the princess and the girl from the Ma family in the garden?"

"Oh? Didn't the Crown Princess already order a marriage? Are there still drafts?"

Huilan didn't know much about this.

"My lord, yes, the princess has never been drafted, and it is only proper to have a draft, otherwise she will be criticized.

The Ma family has two daughters who are on the draft list, the slave glanced at it from a distance, but felt that the other one was much more stable than the last time. "

"Probably because of the relationship with the Queen's family who is not close, what's the use of someone who is not easy to control."

Xiao Yuanzi smiled, "Master is wise, but I also heard another piece of news. In addition to the princess concubine and Ma's daughter entering the palace, the queen mother said that two more girls will be selected to enter the East Palace."

"Oh, then our East Palace should be lively. There will be more people at once, and the fence in our yard will be tightened in the future."

"Yes, the slave understands."

"Go."

Huilan waved her hand lazily.Only then did Xiao Yuanzi retreat.

Nestled on the collapsed bed for a nap, fell asleep in a daze, felt someone approaching him dimly, opened his eyes and saw Li Chengze standing in front of the collapsed bed, reaching out to pinch her nose.

Li Chengze failed in the sneak attack, he stretched out his hand and smiled awkwardly, "Did it wake you up?"

"What do you say?"

"Hey! Don't sleep. If you sleep too much during the day, you will be sleepy at night. Get up and play chess with Gu, okay?"

Huilan was pulled to sit up and yawned.

"If you can't beat me, what's the fun?"

Li Chengze rolled his eyes at her, "Stinky girl, why don't you say it out loud, it's so embarrassing. No way, you can play with me for a while."

"Well, why are you so happy today?"

"Today in the court hall, my father praised Gu for his good work in the Ministry of Punishment. It is really rare. Naturally, I am in a good mood."

Li Chengze gradually found out how to deal with his father, and every time he had a meal, the effect was very good, and now the relationship between father and son is closer than before.

"I thought you went to see the princess, these days are audition days."

Huilan laughed and teased him.

Li Chengze raised his head and glared at her, "Stinky girl dares to laugh at you alone. After the audition, she will get married sooner or later. If there are any good things, you can see them sooner or later. Why bother to make fun of me now?"

"I heard that the Empress Dowager will choose two more people for you?"

"It is to select people to come in, and the Ma family daughter's family cannot be allowed to dominate, and the father also agreed."

"Congratulations to the crown prince, you have won another beauty."

Huilan smiled and cupped her fists to congratulate him.

Li Chengze knocked on her head angrily, "What's the point? I don't like any of them."

After finishing speaking, he sighed again, if he didn't like it, he would let it in, he couldn't help himself.

Seeing that he was really upset, Huilan took his hand and shook it coquettishly, "Ze Lang, I'm just jealous, why are you still angry.

What's more, the entry of an official's daughter into the palace is related to whether your position as the crown prince is stable. You don't have any children now, but your brothers all have children. "

"Yeah, I know, that's why I'm helpless, I can't help myself at all, Laner, I will always protect you, now it seems that it is good for you to have a baby later, it may not be a good thing to get involved in this wind and rain .”

Li Chengze sighed, and swallowed some words abruptly. He needed his son to secure the position of crown prince. Sons and daughters represent inheritance, which is very important.

Huilan smiled, "I know Zelang loves me, I won't cause you any trouble, I'm very good."

She doesn't care how many women get in, everyone competes for favor based on their ability.

Li Chengze sighed and lowered his head to study the chessboard. He hoped that the crown princess would win and give birth to a son sooner, so that he would be able to do business and not have to breed everywhere, just like an animal.

It's hard to say that the fact is that the lives and emotions of the royal descendants cannot be controlled by themselves.
