Even bending her legs became difficult. Xiao Xizi looked up at the dazzling sky, and said weakly, "My lord, it's been three hours, and we still have to wait? It's been a long time since lunch time." Is it blind? Can you not feel the heat?He felt like he was roasted.The beggar master is used to being hungry, but he is not, and now his stomach is so empty.

"Didn't you say that Concubine Lan is His Majesty's only concubine, so she can't be neglected? Then she told us to wait here, and we will wait."

Staring blankly at Xia who knew nothing, Xiao Xizi lowered her head in resignation and continued to wait aimlessly.

Concubine Lan made it clear that she wanted to act like a concubine, to suppress the flaws of the young master, and Xiao Xizi was already mentally prepared.If there are too many reservations, wait two more hours for nightfall, when they will leave, Concubine Lan can't say anything.

He is a slave who can afford to wait.

"Your Majesty is here."

Xiao Xizi picked out her ears with her tail finger, and said casually, "My lord, there seems to be something wrong with my ears, otherwise how could I hear His Majesty coming?"

"Your Majesty... seems to have really come."

Xiao Xizi straightened up abruptly, not daring to be negligent or slack, not noticing Xia's faintly trembling syllables.

Ling Yuancheng saw the two masters and servants from a distance, and when he got off the chariot, he saw Xia's dull expression, hiding the annoyance on his face, he walked up to Xia, and was about to hold his hand, but before he could make a move , saw Concubine Lan in a bright red attire opened the door of the bedroom and ran out anxiously. After finding her gaze, she suddenly slowed down and strolled over in various poses. The headdress swayed back and forth and walked in front of him. "The concubine welcomes His Majesty." She lowered her head to reveal her slender neck, and then raised her head leisurely. The smile on her face was just right, and no one could find any flaws. There was a faint blush on the slightly protruding cheekbones, which was charming and charming.

Putting the index finger against Concubine Lan's chin, she gently lifted her fingertips upwards, "My concubine, you look rosy, it seems that Wei Yan lied." Turning his head slightly to Wei Yan who was following behind, he said, "Wei Yan , what should you do? Are you cursing Aifei?"

"Your Majesty, I wonder what Eunuch Wei lied about?" Concubine Lan asked curiously.

"Just now Wei Yan anxiously told me that my concubine was not feeling well, so I left government affairs and hurried to the concubine's palace. Looking at the concubine's expression now, this slave is not lying, or something?" The tone seemed to be really worried about his own. Concubine Ai is unwell.

When Concubine Lan heard this, the smile on her face became even brighter. With her white and soft hands, she gently placed Ling Yuancheng's hand on her chin in her palm, and wrapped it gently, "Your Majesty, the concubine is guilty, and I have made His Majesty worry. Don't blame Eunuch Wei." She stroked her forehead with a slender hand, "Actually, my concubine did feel a little unwell when she got up in the morning, but it's just an old problem. I didn't expect Eunuch Wei to know about it and reported it to His Majesty. Your Majesty It’s because Eunuch Wei has done his duty, so don’t criticize too much.” Although Lin Lan hated Wei Yan very much, to some extent, she didn’t like killing them all, so a little punishment would do.

Ling Yuancheng followed Lin Lan's words and said, "Wei Yan, why don't you thank Concubine Lan?"

"Slave Wei Yan Xie Concubine Lan begged for mercy."

As if he was a superfluous existence, Xia stepped back a little, not wanting others to discover his existence, avoiding him in fear.

Ling Yuancheng caught Xia's tiny movement at the end of his eyes, and put on a smiling face at Concubine Lan, and before Concubine Lan could express her shyness in time, let her look disappointedly at the little hand that suddenly lost its temperature, and looked blankly at Concubine Lan. One moment she was still in her own hand, and the next moment she was holding another person's hand in front of her. That hand was not beautiful, and one could tell it was a pair of rough hands that had not been well maintained. Her complexion is still dark, but it's just such a pair of hands held by her majesty cherishingly...

Ling Yuancheng hugged Xia's shoulders intimately, and said to Concubine Lan who seemed about to cry in a low voice: "My concubine, he is not in good health, so I will take him back first, and let him come to pay his respects next time."

"Your Majesty—" Before she could answer, only the back of her majesty leaving with his arms around the ordinary-looking male pet remained in her eyes. She stood there stupidly until the back disappeared completely, leaving only the desolate figure. Own.

Looking at the already cold palm in despair, why did the big warm hand disappear so quickly when it was clearly in his hand just now?

The maid took out her handkerchief and helped Lin Lan wipe away the tears that fell down her chin, "Ma'am, let's go back."

"Bengong... I look down on that male favorite." Staring at the place in front of where only a few palace attendants passed by, "When His Majesty loved me the most, he was not so... hugging Bengong so intimately."

"Your Majesty..." The maid didn't know how to comfort the injured Concubine Lan, so she could only accompany her.

Ling Yuancheng led Xia onto the chariot, "Do you know what you're sitting on right now?"

"Return to Your Majesty, I don't know."

"It's my step. Only the queen can sit side by side with me. Now that I let you sit, no one will dare to bully you."

He didn't hear the hint in Ling Yuancheng's words, "Thank you Your Majesty." He could only reply dully.

Ling Yuancheng accepted it with peace of mind and thanked me, "You really should thank me. If it wasn't for me, you would have stood outside Concubine Lan's palace for a whole day."

"..." If he had a choice, he would rather stand outside Concubine Lan's palace for a day, or stay beside the emperor like sitting on pins and needles.

The arm that had already shed the scar was severely restrained, not daring to forget that he was sitting on the emperor's steps at this time, and the admonition given to him by the emperor before, he held his breath and dared not speak out.

"Please be safe in the future, don't do this kind of thing again. You can be as arrogant as I want you to be, and it's best not to even pay attention to me. Do you know?"

He didn't understand anything the emperor said, and replied honestly, "Xia doesn't know."

These words reminded Ling Yuancheng that he was just a beggar outside the palace, how could he know what arrogance was? "It's pure and noble. If you really don't understand, just remember one sentence. When others talk to you, especially the women in the palace, you must keep your eyes high above your head, and treat them as people who are lower than you."

Xia seemed to understand this passage, but..."Return to Your Majesty, Xia is just a little son, will this attract...?" Most importantly, he couldn't do it either.

"What is there to be afraid of? I will take care of everything for you. All you have to do is to obey my orders."

Xia could still hear the implicit warning, "Xia understands."

Xia's expression was light all the way, only the emperor who kept hugging his shoulders was smiling all the time.

From time to time, Xiao Xizi raised his head to peek at the interaction between the two, and after accidentally seeing Wei Yan's eyes, he restrained himself a little, wanting to make a good impression on Wei Yan.

Jiang Yiyu, who had just returned from the Queen Mother's Jinlan Palace, had a gloomy face. Jiang Qianxue didn't notice, she only thought about her sister's return, and immediately took a cup of bird's nest that she had prepared, and said to her with a big grin "Sister, what do you think this is?" Putting the bird's nest cup in front of Jiang Yiyu, she couldn't wait to open the lid without waiting for her sister's answer, and leaned her nose to smell the fragrance, "This bird's nest was obtained by my sister. , doesn’t my sister want to take good care of it? My sister is specially prepared to drink it for you, drink it quickly, it’s very fragrant.” Jiang Yiyu’s subtle gesture of praise did not attract Jiang Yiyu’s love.

Jiang Yiyu looked angrily at the bird's nest that was still steaming upwards, but she just swept it off. Jiang Qianxue didn't expect this to happen. Her skirt got a little soup stains. She couldn't care about herself, so she squatted down, Distressed looking at the broken cup and the spilled bird's nest.

"Sister, you can say if you don't like it, why did you spill it? Do you know how much thought I put into these bird's nests?!" She even gave away the pearl pendant that her mother gave her before entering the palace, just to exchange for this A cup of bird's nest was gone without even a sip.

"Bird's nest, bird's nest! You don't understand other things except these small sesame and mung bean things! Do you know that His Majesty has just made a male favorite as a son? You don't know that the queen mother has gone to great lengths to make us concubines." Have you thought about it?! Can't you put some thought into this?" Jiang Yiyu glared at Jiang Qianxue, she was already full of anger, and when she came back, she still wanted to listen to her brainless sister chattering.

"Sister..." Jiang Qianxue didn't expect that her kindness would be scolded by her sister, she was stunned, and then asked blankly: "The next position, just let nature take its course. What's the use of relying on the empress dowager's aunt? With the concubine's life, No matter what, we will meet His Majesty, without the concubine's life, our sisters can be regarded as companions in the palace, and it is not bad to live a lifetime. This Changlan Palace does not lack us, why should my sister always be obsessed with the position of concubine?"

She didn't care at all who was canonized by His Majesty.It's not hers, no matter how much you hold it in your hand, it will slip away, it's hers, no matter how much she refuses, it will be hers.

Although her younger sister has been sensitive since she was a child, she doesn't even know such a simple truth.

Jiang Yiyu smiled sarcastically at Jiang Qianxue, "If my younger sister can be as simple as her older sister, she might not be so sad." She has her ambitions.She wants to revitalize the declining Jiang family with the power of women, and let her father who has always looked down upon them take a good look at it, not only men can revitalize the family business!

"Sister..." Jiang Qianxue felt that Jiang Yiyu seemed to have changed since meeting the queen mother's aunt. In the past, her sister...wouldn't be like this.

"You'd better stop doing unnecessary things in the future. I want to read a book, so don't disturb me."

Jiang Qianxue sat on the stool weakly, and was in a daze for the whole afternoon.
