Red Mansion is so charming

Chapter 271 Aunt Xue’s sacrifice is too great (please subscribe and vote monthly)

Aunt Xue's movement of stretching her hand towards her chest immediately aroused Su Ran's alertness.

However, he did not choose to speak directly to stop the other party.

After all, if a woman reaches her hand toward her chest, there may be several possibilities.

Perhaps there was something important hidden in her arms that needed to be taken out with her hands.

Or maybe it was just that the skin there was itchy, and she wanted to scratch it with her hands.

Even if the buttons on the chest are not buttoned properly, it is possible to straighten the clothes.

Of course, other possibilities cannot be ruled out.

However, judging from the identity of the other party, the possibility of other situations will be relatively low.

Out of such considerations, Su Ran kept staring at the other person with flashing eyes, without doing anything or saying anything.

However, Aunt Xue's next action made him stunned on the spot.

Su Ran only felt a flash of snow, and then his eyesight turned dark.

To this day, this is the first time that he dare not face a woman.

Therefore, Su Ran chose to close her eyes.

Just close your eyes and you won't see anything.

However, he soon discovered that his idea was wrong.

Because a person can not see things or hear sounds.

But even a deaf and blind person can still feel.

The warm and soft touch made Su Ran stunned for a moment.

……

An hour later, Aunt Xue left the south study room.

After leaving the South Study Room, she returned to Xue's mansion in a carriage again.

However, when she returned, she locked herself in the room.

For three days in a row, the head of the Xue family had not shown his face to outsiders once.

Except for her and Su Ran, no one knew what happened in Nan Study that day.

However, since that day, Su Ran would run to Xue Baochai's Qixiang Palace every now and then.

As for the psychology behind this, outsiders don’t know.

Even Xue Baochai himself didn't know how his mother made Su Ran's attitude change so suddenly.

However, she didn't think much about it, and she didn't have time to think about it.

After all, for some things, the result may be more important than the process.

It is an indisputable fact that he has received repeated favors from the emperor.

With that, that's enough.

Nothing else matters.

And the beneficiary of this incident is not only Xue Baochai.

From that day on, Su Ran not only frequently went to Qixiang Palace, but also often saw him working hard at Concubine An Xue Baoqin's place.

Regarding this, Xue Baoqin only thought that it was his stunning appearance that attracted the love of the Holy Heart, and didn't think much about it.

Even Liu'er, the palace maid in Xue Baochai's palace who had been favored once, had been favored several times by her master these days.

Such a situation made Liu'er so excited that her face flushed every day.

She, who was originally in a gloomy mood, gradually became cheerful.

She seemed to see that goal that seemed out of reach at first was getting closer and closer to herself.

However, Su Ran's abnormal behavior was still noticed by those who were interested.

This person is none other than the Queen of the East Palace, Wang Xifeng.

It's no wonder that they both rule the same palace, but the favors they receive are so different.Under such circumstances, it was difficult for her not to feel unbalanced.

However, Wang Xifeng did not make any announcement, but quietly began to have people investigate the matter in the palace.

Soon, she smelled an unusual smell.

Because Wang Xifeng discovered a problem through the news from the city gate guard.

Qixiang Palace, including the watershed where such a huge change occurred on Anpin's side, stems from one incident.

More than ten days ago, Xue Baochai's mother, Aunt Xue, visited the palace.

In terms of seniority, the other party can be regarded as his aunt.

Not many people paid attention to this matter, but Wang Xifeng noticed it.

There are three main reasons for focusing on this matter.

First of all, it is impossible for my little aunt to come to the palace for no reason.

So, she must have come here for something.

As for another point, that is, during this period, apart from this incident, there was nothing else that could change the status quo.

As for the last point, it is even more intriguing.

According to people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Aunt Xue went directly to the south study room after she came over.

What's even more suspicious is that my little aunt actually stayed in the south study room for a full hour.

What were she and the emperor doing inside during this hour?
Thinking of these, the fire of gossip in Wang Xifeng's heart instantly began to burn.

This little aunt of mine seems to be less than forty, right?
In addition, my uncle seems to have passed away many years ago.

It must be difficult to be a widow for so many years.

Thinking of this, Wang Xifeng thought of a possibility that she didn't dare to think about.

Apart from this possibility, she really couldn't think of anything that would cause the originally even situation to suddenly turn towards Nishinomiya.

At this moment, Ping'er, who had been named Concubine Shun, happened to be with Wang Xifeng.

I have to say that this woman, Ping'er, knows how to behave.

Now that she has been sealed as a concubine, she still often visits her young lady.

Coming here today brought Wang Xifeng a piece of jewelry that was rewarded to her by the palace.

It's not that Wang Xifeng, as a queen, lacks something like her.

Rather, this represents Ping'er's respect for his young lady.

There is one thing that Ping'er can never forget, that is, without his own lady, he would not have the chance to become the woman of today's Holy Emperor, let alone enter the palace and be granted the title of concubine.

Therefore, Ping'er has always been grateful for this kindness in his heart.

Because of this, she would come to Wang Xifeng's place and walk around frequently whenever she had nothing to do.

Seeing that Wang Xifeng looked worried at this moment, Ping'er looked at him with a smile on his face and said, "What's wrong with you? What happened? I've never seen you look so worried."

When Wang Xifeng heard this, she recovered from her daze.

Looking at Ping'er, who had been with her for so many years, she smiled and waved her hands and said, "It's nothing, I'm just thinking about some small things, it's nothing."

Seeing that there was still a trace of doubt in the other party's eyes, Wang Xifeng immediately changed the subject and said, "Has the Emperor been visiting you these days?"

When Ping'er heard this, he suddenly felt sad.

The next moment, she smiled sarcastically and said: "It has been almost a month, but the emperor is busy with state affairs, so these things are understandable."

When Wang Xifeng saw this, she couldn't help but think of herself.

Since entering the palace, the number of times Su Ran came to his side can be counted on the fingers.

Thinking of this, Wang Xifeng felt increasingly uncomfortable.

At this moment, she desperately wanted to find out what was the reason for the unique scenery in the West Palace.
