Concubine Huang said she wanted to leave

Chapter 344 Meeting in a narrow road

Concubine Jia...Zhao Kehan?

Jin Yantang's eyes flickered slightly. At this moment, Shang Kelan put down the piano in his hand, raised his eyes to look at Jin Yantang, got up and saluted, "My concubine sees Your Majesty."

Helping her up quickly, Jin Yantang frowned and said, "Why didn't you speak just now? I thought you..."

Shang Kelan pursed her lips and smiled, and said: "It's the concubine who worried His Majesty. The concubine just played a little self-forgetfully just now. Your Majesty came back early today, do you want to eat first?"

As she spoke, she stepped forward to untie Jin Yantang's black cloak.

Jin Yantang's expression softened slightly: "No, there are lanterns hanging in the imperial garden tonight, I'll take you to have a look."

Shang Kelan paused slightly, although the palace was already preparing for the Spring Festival, but the lanterns should not be hung at this time.

But Jin Yantang was interested, so she nodded and said: "Okay, then your Majesty will change clothes later, Your Majesty."

So Jin Yantang let go of her, and told the maids on both sides: "Be gentle, don't hurt the concubine Chen."

Being so cautious, the concubine Chen in the palace can be regarded as the only one among concubines.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The palace maids responded to Jin Yantang's words, and then respectfully pulled up the screen to dress and change Shang Kelan.

Not long after, Shang Kelan, who changed into a plain white jacket embroidered with begonia brocade, came out from behind the screen, wearing a rosewood carved wooden hairpin on her head, and a little powder on her face, she looked much more energetic.

Jin Yantang watched her come slowly, and his heart skipped a beat.

In order not to let others see the abnormality, he coughed, stretched out his hand and said to Concubine Chen: "Let's go."

Shang Kelan gave him his hand and let him hold her.

The two went to the Royal Garden together, Fupu and Yuliu followed behind them, followed by some maidservants and servants.

The Imperial Garden is very large, near the east gate of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, a sedan chair met Jin Yantang and Monk Kelan unexpectedly.

Fu Pu stepped forward and reminded: "Who is the sedan chair? Please get off the sedan chair to meet His Majesty."

As soon as the words were finished, calligraphy and painting waved their hands, and the sedan chair stopped immediately, and a delicately dressed woman in a pink skirt stepped out of the sedan chair.

"The concubine sees His Majesty, and the concubine Chen!"

Jin Yantang looked at the person coming, frowned slightly, and said, "Chen Zhaoyi, why don't you learn the rules in the teacher's workshop, what are you doing here?"

Zhao Kexi's voice was sweet, and he said with a charming expression: "Your Majesty, my concubine has already learned all the rules of Jiaosifang according to what you said, and now she has to take the exam for the concubine Jia. Jiaosifang sent it out, but the concubine heard that the Xianya Palace was on fire and the concubine Chen was injured, the concubine Chen was thinking about the concubine Chen, so she wanted to visit her."

As she spoke, her eyes turned and fell on Shang Kelan.

Zhao Kexi's voice was so sweet that Jin Yantang's eyelids twitched: "It's getting late, you should go back earlier, don't wander around outside."

Then why can Shang Kelan follow him?

Zhao Kexi was dissatisfied and didn't dare to be presumptuous, so she got tired of being beside the two of them, stepped forward and said, "Where are your majesty and concubine Chen going? The concubine can serve you, but I haven't seen your majesty these days, and I haven't given any advice to you." The concubine Chen gave the morning invitation, and the concubine felt very sorry."

He glanced at her indifferently, then Shang Kelan held her hand and said, "Chen Zhaoyi seems to have some smell."

Knowing that Shang Kelan and Zhao Kexi were at odds, Jin Yantang was about to send Zhao Kexi away, but when he heard what Shang Kelan said, he didn't make any further moves.

Zhao Kexi thought that Shang Kelan was referring to the fragrance on her body, so she smiled triumphantly, and said: "The fragrance on this concubine's body is made of peach blossoms, it smells sweet and light, and lasts for a long time. If you like it, I will let someone go outside the palace to buy a bottle for you!"

But Shang Kelan smiled suddenly, looked straight at her with dark pupils and said, "No, I mean, you smell like arson."

The smell of arson?
These five words sounded a bit confusing, but Jin Yantang heard her off-topic meaning, and couldn't help but stare slightly, thinking: Could it be that Lan'er thought that Zhao Kexi was the real culprit who set Xianya Palace on fire?

But would Zhao Kexi have such courage?

Jin Yantang sent people from Dali Temple to investigate the Xianya Palace. The fire in the Xianya Palace was indeed caused by the kitchen in the courtyard. The kitchen burned, and the wine jars and oil jars became fuel. It is not so easy to destroy.

Jin Yantang also checked from the scene, but there were too many people fighting the fire that day, the footsteps around the Xianya Palace were messy, and the scene was in a mess, so nothing could be found at all.

After Zhao Kexi heard Shang Kelan's words, she was also frightened for an instant.

On the side, Calligraphy's heart skipped a beat, she quickly pulled Zhao Kexi's clothes, Zhao Kexi came back to his senses, forced a smile and said: "Hehe...hehe, Concubine Chen is really joking, the concubine's body How can there be such a strange smell?"

But Shang Kelan just stared at her motionlessly, without saying a word.

Seeing that Shang Kelan's face gradually became expressionless, and the light in his eyes dimmed a lot, Jin Yantang let go of her hand holding Zhao Kexi, and then said softly to her: "Okay, Lan Son, let’s go to the Royal Garden first, the later it gets, the colder the weather will be, and it won’t be good for you to be frozen.”

Jin Yantang's soft voice brought Shang Kelan back to her senses, she nodded, smiled at Jin Yantang, and with the support of Yuliu, passed by Zhao Kexi, there was no sign of Zhao Kexi in her eyes , It seems that she didn't take her to heart at all.

Zhao Kexi recalled how she was frightened by Shang Kelan's words just now, and couldn't help but glared at her with some resentment.

Just when Jin Yantang was about to pass her by, Zhao Kexi quickly recovered his expression, and said in a sweet voice: "Your Majesty, so you are going to the Imperial Garden? I heard that the begonias in the Imperial Garden have not withered yet. You go together!"

Jin Yantang glanced at her indifferently, completely different from the gentle and considerate look when he faced Shang Kelan just now.

What's even more ruthless is that Jin Yantang left here with Concubine Chen without saying a word to her.

"Hey, Your Majesty, wait for my concubine!"

Zhao Kexi froze for a moment, then hurriedly chased after Jin Yantang.

She can't let His Majesty stay with Concubine Chen anymore, otherwise Concubine Chen can live a good life with her when she is pregnant?

Moreover, it was night and the Imperial Garden was close to the East Palace. This was simply an excellent opportunity for His Majesty to rest in her Changle Palace!
I saw Zhao Kexi chased a few steps away with the support of the calligraphy and painting, when she saw Fupu and two servants standing in front of her, he said with a smile on his face: "Your Majesty, please stay, Your Majesty said, it's getting dark now." It's late, please hurry back to the palace, Empress Zhaoyi."

Zhao Kexi gritted her teeth, pushed Fupu angrily, and said, "Go away, do you have to tell me what I do?"

The two servants quickly supported Fu Pu, and without Fu Pu's orders, they immediately stepped forward to support Zhao Kexi.

Zhao Kexi panicked and struggled: "What are you doing? Are you slaves eating your heart and leopard? How dare you disrespect me!"
