"It's nothing." Jing Shu shook her head, leaning her delicate body in his arms, holding the buttons on his dragon robe with one hand, and said in a dull voice, "Your Majesty, I promised my mother that I will give birth to a member of my family. A cousin was sent to the emperor to serve..."

"You still said she didn't say anything she shouldn't have said?" Lu Zan raised his hand and pinched her chin, looking at the depression on her pretty face, and said, "You don't have to be sad about this. I will call Grand Master Jing to the palace tomorrow. , reject him personally.”

"Your Majesty, you should agree." However, Jing Shu pushed him away and suddenly knelt down in front of him.

"What are you doing? When you are in the palace, no matter who wants to bully you, I can protect you. Even if your mother makes a request that makes you unhappy, as long as I am here, you don't have to pay attention to her." Lu Zan said and was about to help her up.

Ke Jingshu was very determined this time.

"Your Majesty, please agree to be my concubine." She lowered her head and said.

"You want to ask other women to serve me?" Lu Zan's face turned cold instantly.

When Jing Shu couldn't see him, a cold light overflowed from his eyes. Even he couldn't explain the emotion inside, and he didn't know if it was mixed with a trace of disappointment.

Lu Zan was a little confused at the moment and wanted to ask her:

——Jingshu, are you heartless?

"Your Majesty, I have never done anything for my father or my mother since I entered the East Palace. I have been protected by my parents and family since I was a child, and I am lucky enough to be your woman. Your Majesty, I will grant your permission this time. Please fulfill your filial duty as a child."

Jing Shu said, raising her little face full of tears to look at Lu Zan, "Your Majesty, I promise that this is the only time, and I will never give up the Emperor to another woman again."

Lu Zan looked at her tearful eyes and listened to her promising words, and the depression in his heart gradually dissipated.

He leaned over to help her up, wiped away the tears on her face, and then gently held her in his arms: "I promise you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Jing Shu buried her little face in his arms, but her voice was still muffled, and she did not show any joy. "With the Emperor supporting me, I will not be afraid of anything in the future."

"It's good that you know." Lu Zan stroked her back.

"The emperor treats me so well. I will never be separated from the emperor in this life." Jing Shu's sweet and soft voice revealed a bit of affection.

But his eyes were sober and calm.

Lu Zan stayed with her for a while, and finally went to the Queen's Palace.

Tonight is New Year's Eve.

Lu Zan had broken the rules of the palace by appearing hand in hand with Jing Shu at the palace banquet. Even to take care of the queen's face, he had to go to Kunning Palace.

"The Emperor is here." In the Kunning Palace, the Queen seemed to have expected that he would come. She was holding a book and waiting to read it. When the palace official announced that Lu Zan appeared immediately, she immediately put down the book in her hand and stood up. salute.

"Sit." Lu Zan sat down on the couch and said calmly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After the queen sat down, she immediately ordered the palace servants to bring a bowl of sobering soup, "The emperor has a bowl. When I saw the palace banquet, the emperor drank a little too much wine."

Lu Zan nodded, took the soup bowl, and took a sip while saying, "The queen has been working hard recently to prepare for the New Year's Eve palace banquet."

"It's all what I should have done." The queen shook her head, with an apologetic tone, "How is sister Yuan Fei? It's all because of my suddenness that she was frightened tonight. Your Majesty, please rest assured, I'm concubine." We will definitely continue to investigate and find the mastermind behind this."

"Someone wants to cause trouble. No matter how careful the queen is, it is difficult to guard against it. Fortunately, Concubine Yuan is not in trouble." Lu Zan stirred the spoon in the bowl a few times, without any intention of blaming him, and just said in a calm tone, " After the New Year, one of Concubine Yuan's cousins ​​will enter the palace, and I have already confirmed it. At that time, I will make her a beauty and grant her residence in Changchun Palace."

When the queen heard this, her brows moved.

She thought of something in her mind, and then she smiled and said: "I know, Your Majesty, please rest assured that I will strictly abide by the Emperor's will. However, I also suddenly remembered that it seemed that when Concubine Xie was pregnant for the second time, for the sake of Gu Chong also invited one of her concubines to enter the palace. The emperor was quite fond of Concubine Xie's concubine at that time. Alas, in the blink of an eye, so much time had passed. Concubine Xie's concubine had two children at that time. , He really died miserably."

There was a "clang" sound.

Before the Queen finished speaking, Lu Zan placed the soup bowl in his hand heavily on the coffee table.

When she raised her head, she saw Lu Zan looking at her with cold eyes.

"On New Year's Eve, a festive and lively day, do you have to mention this matter? And what is the purpose of mentioning it at this time? You want to remind me that I will also love Concubine Yuan's cousin as before. , asking her to die suddenly after becoming pregnant with the dragon heir, or are you implying something else?" Lu Zan said in a cold tone, and then stood up, "It's getting late, the queen should rest early!"

After leaving these words, he left Kunning Palace.

The queen squatted half-crouched and saluted.

"Queen, this is a rare time for Your Majesty to come here. Why do you deliberately say these things that bring back His Majesty's sad past and make him feel unhappy?" Xiangmo helped his wife up with a distressed look on her face and couldn't help but say.

"Sad? Our Holy Lord probably has no heart at all, so how could he be sad?" The queen stood up with an indifferent expression, walked to the couch and sat down, picked up her book and continued reading.

She looked so calm and did not feel the slightest embarrassment due to Lu Zan's rebuke, but seeing Xiang Mo feel pain in her heart.

If a woman is so indifferent to her husband, she must be heartbroken to be like this.

And Xiangmo and Xiangyan happened to have seen how the Queen's heart died little by little.

"Your Highness, why are you so angry with the Holy Emperor? Although Concubine Xie is still being banned, there is an eldest prince after all. The dragon heir in Zhao Concubine's belly will be born in more than three months, and now Concubine Yuan is pregnant. , even Concubine Ning also has a eldest princess... Why don't you keep the emperor, so that you can have a son and a half daughter as soon as possible..." Xiangmo persuaded.

"Pregnant?" When the queen heard this, her expression showed a hint of surprise.

She raised her hand and stroked her flat belly, and said softly with a numb face, "I once had a child in my belly..."

"My dear, stop talking!"

When Xiang Mo and Xiang Yan heard this, their expressions changed, and they all knelt down in fright.

Xiangmo cried and said: "Mother, please don't think about that child! He shouldn't have been born in the first place!"

Xiang Yan lay on the ground without saying a word, but he also felt fear in his heart.

"Shouldn't it be?" The queen raised her head, and a drop of unwilling tears slid down her cheek from the corner of her eyes, "God is really unfair. None of my husband's children are mine, but I am pregnant with a child, but because of Since he is not my husband's flesh and blood, he cannot be born. I even had to take the abortion pill myself to send him away... Why? Is it just because I am a woman? "

"Your Majesty... If others listen to what I'm saying, we in Kunning Palace will probably be killed by the Holy One!" Xiang Mo kowtowed, trembling all over, "Please stop talking!"
