Emperor's Women

Hey? Seeing Fang Yan so calm, Zixi was a little flustered: "madam, aren't you angry?"

"Why should we be angry? It's only a matter of time before Yunzhao and canglan start a war. Why should we be angry?" Fang Yan took it for granted and thought it over carefully.

Let Zixi don't know what to say. Fang Yan knew what she was worried about and pulled Zixi's hand and said, "don't worry, Xiao Anzi is the person around LAN Haotian. In addition to Yujia's personal expedition, he generally won't go to the battlefield. Moreover, even if it is Yujia's personal expedition, he is just a servant and won't go to war."

Zixi nodded and said nothing more.

The war was imminent, and Rong Chengjin became more and more busy. He had stayed in changmen palace for several days.

Outside the changmen palace, mingyuke was talking to chupan with a food box in her hand.

Chupan quickly went in to report. After turning back, please ask mingyuke to go in.

After Fang Yan got off the sedan, what he saw was the back of mingyuke. Before she came forward, chupan came over, saluted him and said, "see the imperial concubine. Does the imperial concubine also come to see the emperor?"

Zixi was carrying something in her hand. After listening to chupan's question, she couldn't help turning her eyes: "isn't this nonsense? Come to changmen palace and don't see the emperor. Is it difficult or come to see you?"

"Zixi." Fang Yan frowned and quarreled on no occasion. What's more, she didn't say anything at the beginning of climbing. It's too polite for her to treat others like this.

Seeing Fang Yan unhappy, Zixi flat mouth, didn't say anything. Fang Yan said with a smile, "yes, but just now the imperial concubine has gone in. Then the imperial palace will go back first. Just tell the emperor."

Chupan promised, Fang Yan turned back and returned to the worry forgetting palace.

Just after returning to the palace, Fang Yan put his things aside. Fang Yan turned around and sank his face at Zixi and said, "what's the matter with you today? My father-in-law didn't say anything disrespectful, so you treat others like this?"

"Empress, if it weren't for the emperor, you wouldn't have to leave canglan. It's not a good thing for chupan to follow the emperor." Zixi's dissatisfaction with Rong Chengjin and chupan hasn't been a day or two. Fang Yan passed by with one eye open and one eye closed before. It's normal for her to have a bias in her heart. Although she said it before, Zixi also restrained a little after that. Unexpectedly, With the war approaching, her discontent was aroused again, even more than before.

Seeing her like this, Fang Yan sighed: "in the end, chupan is also the person around the emperor. If you say he is the emperor. You are also the person around the palace, and your words and deeds also represent the palace. Is it difficult for you to affect the whole worry forgetting palace because of your dissatisfaction?"

Hearing what she said was so serious, Zixi hurriedly apologized: "I didn't... just..."

"The palace knows that you are unhappy, but now things have become a foregone conclusion. If you come, you will be at ease. The palace has some regrets now. Shouldn't it have brought you here? If you regret, the palace can send you back to the vicissitudes of the sea." Fang Yan looked at Zixi seriously.

Anyway, Zixi also has people to worry about in canglan, not only Xiao Anzi, but also her family.

Seeing Fang Yan want to send her away, Zixi hurriedly knelt down with tears in her eyes: "is your mother angry that your servant has spoken improperly? Your servant promises that it will never happen again. Don't send your servant away. Your servant has always followed you. Who will serve you when your servant has gone!"

"Isn't there a compassionate branch? My palace sees that the compassionate branch serves very well.".

As soon as the words came out, Zixi's tears fell down: "does the empress think the maidservant is not good to serve..."

"No, I think your mentality will suffer a lot in Yunzhao Hougong. What do you think?" Fang Yan asked.

Zixi bowed her head and thought for a while before she said, "I understand. I won't do this again in the future. Don't be angry, madam."

Seeing that she admitted her mistake, Fang Yan reached out and helped her up: "Today, I saw that mingyuke went into changmen Palace but didn't go in. It's not that I won't fight for anything and let her go. It's just that the war is coming. The Ming family has been brave for generations and naturally wants to lead troops to the battlefield. It's normal for mingyuke to care about his family, go in and have a look and inquire about the situation. No matter how the emperor treats her, the relationship between the Ming family and him is always. You should understand this."

"I know that during this period of time, I will keep a low profile and will not cause trouble to my mother." knowing that her intention is not to argue with the people in Yijing palace, Zixi agreed.

After talking about his heart, Fang Yan asked Zixi to go down and do his own business, leaving compassionate branches to serve him.

Seeing that Zixi retreated, he said, "my mother's heart is so transparent. No wonder the emperor will like it. But miss Zixi is too ambitious."

"This palace also knows, so it will mention her. Otherwise, it will miss the big event." Fang Yan also understands. Before, Zixi worked steadily in canglan palace, but when she arrived at Yunzhao

In the final analysis, she was too defensive.

Political discussion hall. Rong Chengjin and mingyuke's father are discussing how to attack canglan. In canglan palace, the imperial study and LAN Haotian are also discussing with their subordinates.

At that time, it was autumn, and the red maple leaves fell, forming a different scenery in Yunzhao palace.

Just today, the army set out and began to go to the border. A war was imminent.

Five days later, an urgent report came from the border. Yunzhao army, defeated.

When the urgent report came up, Rong Chengjin was discussing with the ministers in the hall of political affairs where to attack next. When he received the urgent report, he was stunned on the spot for a long time before reaching out to take the urgent report.

He doesn't understand. LAN Haotian has, and he does. Even when he trains soldiers with guns, he is ten times and a hundred times more severe than others. It is reasonable that there should be no problem. Why?

Forgetting sorrow palace, Fang Yan, who also received the news, didn't react too much when he heard it. His face was still calm. Rao frowned, just because the medicine was too bitter.

"Empress, you have nothing to say?" Zixi asked puzzled.

Put down the medicine bowl. Fang Yan couldn't wait to pick up a plum to eat. The sour and sweet taste immediately covered up the bitterness in the medicine. Fang Yan's look eased. He picked up his handkerchief to wipe his mouth and said, "what do you want to say? Winning or losing is a common thing for soldiers. Besides, how can a woman in the deep palace know how to lead soldiers to war."

As soon as the voice fell, a voice came from outside: "if you don't understand, even if no one can understand."

Looking back, I saw mingyuke. What is she doing now? Shouldn't you make some appetizers in your own palace and send them to Rong Chengjin? I heard from the palace people that Rong Chengjin's lunch is useless.

Mingyuke walked up to Fang Yan, slightly saluted and said, "my concubine, see the imperial concubine."

"Get up." it's rare to see mingyuke salute her. She also knew that there were too many people around her. She couldn't say what she wanted to say, so she sent all the people around her down and left them alone to speak in the inner hall.

After everyone left, mingyuke didn't beat around the Bush and said straight to the point: "I know that the newly developed weapons in the army are the drawings you gave the emperor. So I want to ask, since there are new weapons, why will they fail? Is there a problem with the drawing paper you gave the emperor?"

Fang Yan hehe, who asked this question, said happily, "it's new. If there is a problem with the drawing, isn't the emperor a fool? I couldn't see it earlier. I didn't find the problem until I went to the battlefield? What's your identity to question the palace?"

"Xian Guifei, don't forget that the rank of the palace is higher than you now. Rao is your distinguished life experience and the daughter of the prime minister's mansion. Your father is a general. In this palace, you also have to salute and greet the palace. Who gave you the qualification to question the palace? Did you forget that the rear palace can't do politics? Not to mention, it's still such a military event." Fang Yan's words were sonorous and reasonable. He was stunned by mingyuke for a long time.

Fang Yan is not easy to deal with. She knew it six years ago. Unexpectedly, six years later, her eloquence has improved a lot.

"A good harem can't do politics. If you draw drawings for the emperor, it's not politics?" mingyuke asked.

"It's the drawing the emperor asked the palace for. If the palace didn't give it, wouldn't it be disobedience?" Fang Yan kicked the ball back.

Such a war of words is really meaningless. Mingyuke sighed, and there was hardly a trace of fatigue on his face: "to tell you the truth, my father led the army, and my family were very worried. Now I was defeated, for fear that my father could not bear such a blow. In addition, the emperor was not in a good mood after learning of the defeat, and my concubine was afraid..."

"You said that you were afraid for several times. I want to ask you, what are you afraid of? You were born in the prime minister's residence, and your courage and spirit should be different from that of ordinary women. Why, after so many years in the harem, your courage has been reduced?" although she and mingyuke have been fighting for wisdom and courage in the harem, she has to say that she appreciates mingyuke, Even some sympathies.

Now, it's rare for them to speak so calmly. If mingyuke hadn't bowed his head to her and revealed his heart, I'm afraid they wouldn't have had the chance to say so in the harem.

Mingyuke shook his head: "No. I just..."

"You have nothing to be afraid of. Life and death are vital. Moreover, the Changsheng general is only sealed by the world. Who says that the Changsheng general can't lose the war? The burden on your Ming family is too heavy. My palace would like to ask, are you tired of living with this burden?"

Until he returned to Yijing palace, mingyuke's ear still echoed Fang Yan's words... Don't you live tired with this burden?

Yue'er, with a cup of tea in her hand, went to mingyuke and said, "madam, what did Fang Yan say to you?"

After receiving the tea in Yuer's hand, mingyuke shook her head and said, "nothing. Also, don't call the name of the imperial concubine so directly in the future. It's bad to be heard."

The moon gave a cry and saw that mingyuke didn't want to talk and didn't bother her.

In the forgetful palace, Fang Yan specially asked Zixi to cook some dishes that Rong Chengjin loved to eat, and then said to Mianzhi, "Mianzhi, go and ask the emperor where to have dinner today and see if you can invite him over."

With a promise, Minzhi turned and went out of the door.

"Empress, I don't understand. Don't you always hope Yunzhao won't win the war? Why do you have to comfort the emperor when you really lost the war?" Zixi asked.

"What should be done is still to be done." Fang Yan replied casually.

Rong Chengjin, when you did those things, I'm afraid you didn't think there would be such a day? You'll stumble like that. I really want to have a good look at your haggard face later.
