Forgotten Envy of the Quiet Royal Concubine

Wei Ying woke up after sleeping until the afternoon, and turned around to see Jiang Yanli lying asleep beside the bed.Wei Ying carefully looked at her appearance, and when she left the palace, he was really alone in this deep palace.It's just that if she is kept in the harem, it will be impossible to guard against open and dark arrows in the future. He can't let her stay here. After finally she has a chance to be happy, he can't let her live a life of depression.

"I hate my sister."

Jiang Yanli was startled, opened his eyes and saw Wei Ying looking at him, and quickly smiled, "A Ying, you're awake."

Wei Ying moved and sat up slowly, feeling his whole body falling apart.

"What time is it?" Wei Ying covered his clothes, feeling a little dizzy.

"It's just after noon, are you hungry? Take a bath or eat first?" Jiang Yanli looked at Wei Ying with tears and smiles.

past noon?Then... "Did you receive the imperial decree today?"

Jiang Yanli nodded and said, "Yes, I received it. It's an imperial decree to marry Zixuan and me. Aying, is it you..."

Wei Ying hurriedly joked, "You changed your name? It turns out that he is the sweetheart of Sister Yanli. I heard that he has a good character and is a person worthy of entrustment."

Jiang Yanli knew that Wei Ying didn't want to talk about it, so he didn't ask anymore, just stroked Wei Ying's hair, and said like a sister loving a younger brother: "But, after I leave, you really have only yourself."

Wei Ying smiled and said, "How could it be? Look around me, front, back, left, right, right, left, right, and right. When is it not a bunch of people, why is there only one person?"

Jiang Yanli said: "Your Majesty told me that Zixuan and I were going to get married a few years ago, and we have to leave the palace before sunset today. Jiang Cheng will come to pick me up. I don't know why it's so sudden."

Wei Ying shook hands that were placed under the quilt, his heart tightened, but he deliberately said relaxedly: "Probably because I want you to be reunited during the New Year's Eve!"

Jiang Yanli said: "When I go home, I can take a detour to Yiling, do you have anything for me to bring back to your clan?"

"Yiling?" Wei Ying was in a daze. He hadn't seen his clansmen for two years, and he didn't know how his uncles and aunts were doing. How old is little A Yuan?

Wei Ying shook his head and said, "No need." What's the use of bringing a message?It's just adding trouble to uncle and aunt.

Seeing this, Jiang Yanli thought to himself that he should go and take a look, then looked left and right, and said softly: "Now Your Majesty is going to choose a concubine, A Ying, make a decision before making a move, don't act impulsively, or you will lose everything. Wait for me and Zixuan Find a way to rescue you without hurting your people."

Wei Ying grabbed Jiang Yanli and said, "Sister Yanli, don't do it. I have my own discretion in my affairs, you must not make any moves, understand?" He can't implicate her, otherwise Lan Wangji will never Forgive her, and even implicate the Jiang family and the Jin family.

Jiang Yanli smiled and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this, go wash up, I'll bring the food, let's eat first."

Wei Ying looked at her and said, "Oh." It seems that he really has to leave on the Lantern Festival, otherwise those who have helped him will be implicated.

Jiang Yanli watched Wei Ying finish the meal, made him another cup of tea, and explained some trivial things to him. When it was getting late, Wei Ying sent Jiang Yanli to the Imperial Study Room, and a little girl came by on the way. The eunuch greeted Wei Ying and said, "I have met Master Wei."

Wei Ying said, "Get up!"

Jiang Yanli said softly to Wei Ying, "This is Eunuch Jinyan, the person who helped me plead with Manager Jin to let me serve you."

After hearing this, Wei Ying's expression softened a lot, and he said, "Eunuch Lao is taking care of Ah Li."

Jin Yan hurriedly said: "I haven't congratulated Miss Yanli yet, I'm so happy."

Jiang Yanli hurriedly returned the salute, "Thank you, Mr. Jinyan."

Wei Ying said, "Why don't Eunuch Jinyan come to the quiet room and help me with my errands?"

Jin Yan hurriedly knelt down and said loudly: "Thank you Master Wei, it is a slave's blessing to be able to serve Master Wei like a dog." Jiang Yanli turned around and said to one of the maids: "Take Mr. Jin Yan to the inner court to file a case. , and then help the public to settle down."

The maid quickly responded: "Yes, Mr. Jinyan, please come with me." The maid is from the quiet room, and only with the badge of the quiet room can she do business.

Wei Ying continued to walk forward, Jiang Yanli took a peek at the people behind him, and whispered to Wei Ying, "This Jinyan knows a lot of people in the inner palace and has many connections, so if he needs it in the future, he has to use it carefully. "

When Wei Ying heard what Jiang Yanli said, he understood what she meant.This person can be bought if he gives favors, and can do things, but he may not be loyal.

Wei Ying saw that Jiang Yanli was still worried, so he couldn't help but chuckled, and that bright face was radiant all of a sudden, amazed the countless guards and palace guards around him, as well as... Lan Wangji.

Lan Wangji always knew that Wei Ying was beautiful, but he never thought that he would look so good-looking when he smiled, like a scorching peach blossom, or like a sunny day reflecting snow.

Wei Ying was smiling briskly at Jiang Yanli, when suddenly his waist tightened, and a familiar smell came over his face, turning around, he saw Lan Wangji staring at him with burning eyes, and said, "Laugh again."

"His Majesty……"

Seeing him slowly put away the smile on the corner of his mouth, Lan Wangji said again, "Smile again, Wei Ying."

The surrounding guards all lowered their heads to avoid him, knowing that His Majesty dotes on Master Wei for one thing, this is the first time seeing His Majesty hugging Master Wei so unabashedly outside the quiet room, one white and one black, a noble and handsome, One is bright and moving, and the two stand together, as beautiful as a painting.

Wei Ying looked at the people around him, then at Lan Wangji, smiled faintly, and said, "Your Majesty, what a shame, please let go."

Lan Wangji stared at his smile, then suddenly let go of the hand on his waist, and said, "Why are you here?"

Wei Ying said, "I heard that Jiang Cheng came here to pick up Ah Li. I have nothing to do with you, so I came to see her off."

Lan Wangji raised his eyebrows and said, "Since you're here, stay with me!"

Wei Ying said in a low voice, "I obey the order."

After a while, Jiang Cheng was summoned in and led Jiang Yan out of the palace.Standing outside the Imperial Study Room, Wei Ying looked at the figure who looked back three times and walked further and further away, finally blurring his vision.

I hate my sister, take care.

After Jiang Yanli left, there were no first-class maids around Wei Ying, and Jin Guangyao replaced Wei Ying's servants with shifts. Wei Ying spent every afternoon in the Library Pavilion after lunch, reading various books.Later, Lan Wangji simply took him by his side and placed him in the Imperial Study Room. One was reviewing memorials and the other was reading books. Wei Ying never said a word unless necessary.

Lan Wangji, on the other hand, asked Wei Ying to serve him tea every half an hour or an hour, or walked over to see what book Wei Ying was reading, picked it up and read it, pointed to the interesting parts and said a few words, the two of them Although the relationship was not warm, it was not cold either, at least the palace guards in the Imperial Study Room looked like this.

Sometimes it was too late for Lan Wangji to finish approving the memorial, so he simply slept with Wei Ying in the bedroom next to the imperial study.For this reason, Lan Qiren even accelerated the speed of the draft, making sure to send people to the palace on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month.

"Wei Ying, it's cold outside, come in." The sky was covered with snow, and Wei Ying stood at the door of the quiet room, looking at the fluttering snowflakes, wondering what he was thinking.

Lan Wangji picked up a white mink cloak, put it on him from behind, and stood side by side with him, looking at the snowflakes in the sky, said: "Auspicious snow heralds a good year, next year will be a good year, people don't have to worry about eating snowflakes next year." Not full or warm."

Hearing this, Wei Ying suddenly thought of these days, watching Lan Wangji write memorials to deal with the government affairs, diligently, never slack off, maybe he will be a good emperor to the people of the world, let them have no worries about food and clothing, and don’t have to suffer from hunger starve.

But to him, Lan Wangji was a cage that he couldn't break free and couldn't escape. Day after day, year after year, he was locked in this deep palace, which made him feel suffocated.

Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and the Shangyuan Festival is getting closer and closer, but he has no helpers. Even if it is the Shangyuan Festival, how can he avoid the people who follow him anytime and anywhere?

On New Year's Eve, the emperor held a palace banquet.This is the last day of this year. Tomorrow is the annual holiday. The court will not open until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. Of course, there are urgent reports that can be reported to the prime minister.

Last year, because the first emperor passed away, the emperor was still in the period of filial piety, so it was not held. This year is the first New Year's Eve palace banquet held by the emperor after he ascended the throne. The palace banquet is not only a royal family banquet, but the emperor will also give imperial meals to the important officials in the court that night. The formula is divided into three, six or nine cases, depending on how the emperor bestows it.The emperor's uncle Lan Qiren looked at Wei Ying who was sitting beside the emperor, and felt annoyed in his heart, but he also knew that on this important occasion today, Wei Ying should not give Wei Ying any shame, after all, this is the emperor's face.

"Today is my first year's New Year's Eve palace banquet after my ascension to the throne, and it is also a family banquet. I will have a drink with my uncle and brother." After Lan Wangji finished speaking, he raised his wine glass and raised his hand to Lan Qiren and Lan Xichen.

Lan Qiren and Lan Xichen quickly stood up, raised their cups and said to Lan Wangji, "Your Majesty." The three toasted and drank together.

The two of them thought it was over, but Lan Wangji turned to Wei Ying and said, "Today's festival, Ai Qing will have a drink with uncle and elder brother too!"

When Lan Qiren heard that he wanted to be angry, Lan Xichen hurriedly shook his head at him, Lan Qiren could only hold back, and the maid hurriedly filled their wine glasses.

Wei Ying glanced at Lan Wangji, saw his serious expression, then looked at Lan Qiren and Lan Xichen, stood up and wanted to go down, but Lan Wangji grabbed him and said, "Where does Aiqing want to go? You can only sit by my side tonight."

Lan Qiren didn't hold back for a while, and said: "My lord, is this against the rules?" Wei Ying is just an ordinary concubine, not a noble concubine, and he can't do without respect.

Lan Wangji glanced at Lan Qiren with a half-smile, and said softly, "What's your opinion, Uncle?"

Lan Xichen hurriedly said, "Why don't Xichen offer a cup to Concubine Jing? Speaking of which, this is a family. Xichen hasn't formally met Concubine Jing yet, so why don't His Majesty introduce you to your brother?"

After hearing this, Lan Wangji said to Lan Xichen in a good mood, "Wei Ying admits his birth, brother, please bear with me."

Lan Xichen smiled and said, "Then why not drink it for your brother, Concubine Jing can do whatever you want!" After speaking, Lan Xichen picked up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp.Seeing Wei Ying, he had no choice but to pick up the wine glass and drink it down.Lan Wangji immediately picked up a chopstick of food for him and put it in a bowl, saying, "Eat some food, and put the wine down."

Taking advantage of Lan Wangji turning his head to stare at Wei Ying, Lan Xichen winked at Lan Qiren again, and whispered, "Father, Your Majesty, don't be confused."

Lan Qiren seemed to wake up after being suddenly splashed with cold water, right!The person sitting on it no longer needs to respect his prince, but the king who holds the power of life and death.

Lan Qiren hastily walked into the hall, pretending to be annoyed and said: "Why does Concubine Jing look down on this glass of thin wine and don't want to have a drink with this old man?"

Wei Ying had just finished eating Lan Wangji's food when he saw Lan Qiren standing below with a wine glass, he stood up quickly and said, "Wei Ying dare not, the virtuous king..."

"Call me Uncle." Lan Wangji interrupted him, and said, "Call Uncle Father." Wei Ying turned his head, glanced at Lan Wangji, then at the silent royal family sitting below, and slowly changed his words. Said: "Uncle. Please drink this cup to the full." After speaking, drink first as a respect.Lan Qiren also raised his glass and drank it down.

Seeing that Lan Qiren had finished drinking, Lan Wangji said, "Uncle, please sit down."

Seeing this, the rest of the clan stood up and said, "Please drink this cup with Your Majesty and Concubine Jing."

Seeing this, Lan Wangji also stood up, picked up his wine glass, and said, "May my Lan family's dynasty last forever, and may our Lan family's people live and work in peace and contentment. Please drink this glass to the brim."

After the palace banquet, Wei Ying was slightly drunk, Lan Wangji hugged him and went directly to his bedroom, looking at the person lying on the bed, Lan Wangji stroked his red face and thought that starting tomorrow he won't have to go to bed early, Finally, you can try the indulgence of "from now on, the king will not go to court early".

As for tonight, let him sleep well!
