Lady Changning

Chapter 190 How Do You Know My Heartache (1)

"My lord, congratulations."

Huangfu Shenqian frowned at first, then let go of the frown when he heard that it was a blessing, smiled and did not speak.So he didn't realize that Xi Changning opened his eyes and looked at Huangfu Zimian, Huangfu Zimian was aware of the greedy eyes, but because of the embarrassment of the emperor, it was inconvenient to say so, so he pretended not to see it.

Huangfu Zimian turned around and left after saying the congratulations, without hesitation for a moment, the tears from the corners of Xi Changning's eyes spilled out little by little, in order not to let Huangfu Shenqian see it, she buried her head in his arms.

what should she doWhat is she betting with the few lives left?Is it just to support the dilapidated body with the hatred that I don't know what it feels like?
Maybe watching them live happily, but her own carelessness or kindness made them even more rampant, she didn't want to be a victim.

Huangfu Shenqian brought Xi Changning back to Fengzao Palace, and all the courtiers who knew each other left the bedroom, leaving the two of them behind.

"You don't have to pretend, I know you're not drunk."

Xi Changning still didn't move, even knowing that he had seen through her tricks.

"Are you still having difficulty accepting me? Because of Huangfu Zimian? Don't worry, I've waited for you for so many years, and I don't care about waiting for a while, so don't worry."

As he spoke, he was lying beside Xi Changning with his clothes on, wondering if it was because of his promise, his exhausted body and mind finally calmed down and fell into a deep sleep.

The next day when Huangfu Shenqian went to the morning court, Xi Changning got up to wash and wash as usual, and Mo Lian was by his side attentively serving her, so Xi Changning pulled her over.

"You once helped me, so I want to ask you why you did this?"

Mo Lian stopped what she was doing, not knowing how to answer.

"Mo Lian originally thought that the empress would not ask any more questions. Maybe Mo Lian was careless. At that time, General Yan seemed to be very concerned about the whereabouts of the empress. Mo Lian thought that the emperor asked him to do that. Later, I realized that it was not the case. But Mo Lian couldn't see the reason."

Mo Lian thought to herself that since she was already in her position, she had to find another job.It was for the emperor before, and it is for the queen now.

"Yan Xiufeng."

I had been suspicious of him for a long time before, but now it seems that there is really a problem. It seems that it was a wrong decision for Gu Nianxi Hanxue to let him go.

"Mo Lian, come closer."

Xi Changning's tone was full of uncertainty, which made Mo Lian feel very uneasy.She felt that the few steps away from Xi Changning was very difficult, and she finally calmed down before moving in front of Xi Changning.

Xi Changning just looked at Mo Lian with a pair of cold eyes, as if he wanted to pass her on.Merlin suddenly felt cold.

"Your Majesty." Her teeth were chattering.

"Mo Lian, are you trustworthy? If what you said is true and you helped Bengong, I will not treat you badly. If what you said is unbelievable... there are many rumors outside, and you know that Bengong business."

Xi Changning's fingertips brushed Mo Lian's cheek, and Mo Lian was afraid that she would cut her cheek with force, and was very afraid that she would find that Xi Changning had changed a long time ago.

"Mo Lian didn't lie, and there's no need to lie. Back then, she helped the empress only because of her wishes." Mo Lian boldly finished speaking.

She was very afraid of what would happen next, but if she didn't explain clearly, she might be sad even today.She can still remember that Xi Changning was indifferent but only interested in the second prince. She can understand this kind of affection because she also has the same feeling for the third prince, but she is just a court lady, and she can do things for the third prince since childhood not much.

Even she could feel that something was going to happen that day, so she was afraid that the third prince would do something she regretted, and that Xi Changning would do something stupid, so she let her go.

"Get up. I won't hurt you. It's just that you have to let go of the small thoughts of those you are the emperor, and do things for me wholeheartedly, and you will not treat you badly."

Xi Changning moved her finger away, she could still see Mo Lian's little thoughts clearly, she just wanted to judge whether she was sincere or not.

"Mo Lian is already the mother's person, so I don't dare to have any thoughts." Mo Lian felt her legs trembling, and was afraid that she would accidentally kneel down again.

"General Yan is the emperor's confidant, it's inconvenient for me to check, but you can, understand?"

Mo Lian nodded, originally she wanted her to check on General Yan, she had been in the palace for many years, and General Yan often followed the emperor, it was not difficult to check these things.

Seeing that she understood, Xi Changning simply cleaned up and went to the palace where the empress dowager lives now. Because the empress dowager refused to move the palace, she has been living in Hefu Palace.And the queen mother also thought about it, so she lived in Weiyang Palace, the former sleeping hall of Concubine Hui.

Weiyang Palace

There were quite a few people waiting for her to come in Weiyang Palace, but Xi Changning took his time and didn't feel embarrassed at all.When others see her coming, they still get up and salute her, which is quite critical.

"Changning, come quickly and let Ben Gong take a look." The queen mother looked at Xi Changning with some excitement.

Xi Changning stepped forward over others, but was attracted by a little doll, who had grown so big unexpectedly.Seeing this, the Queen Mother immediately pushed Huangfu Yi.

"Yi'er, hurry up and salute your queen mother."

The little doll nodded obediently, and bent forward.

"Yi'er, send my mother's greetings."

Xi Changning was very touched, but she couldn't understand the emotion. She touched the child's head and helped him up. Knowing that she didn't look good, she wanted to give him a smile as much as possible, even though she didn't look good.

Huangfu Yi was not afraid at all, he took her hand and sat beside the Queen Mother.

Today's event will never miss the Empress Dowager who watched the theater. I don't know if the death of the late emperor caused her too much loss. She has aged a lot, and the white hair on the sideburns is also obvious.

"You girl is really capable. If they are half as good as you, I'm afraid they won't be able to let you sit down."

I don't know if it's a mockery or a compliment, but the Empress Dowager's words are puns.Xi Changning ignored it and just saluted and sat down, everything was very decent.

"The empress dowager is admirable, but I can't match your thoughtfulness."

Without waiting for the Empress Dowager to answer, Xi Changning continued.

"Since everyone is here, Ben Gong also happens to have something to say to my sister."

Generally speaking, if Xi Changning can say such things, there must be some changes. People who are familiar with her can't help but be alert, especially Xi Lingyan.

"The emperor's harem is empty, and as the head of the harem, he should share it for him. I have found a good candidate around me, and I will show everyone today."

What Xi Changning said was passing the eye, and did not mention that it was a discussion. Obviously, this matter has been decided and cannot be refuted, even if it is the Queen Mother and the Empress Dowager.

"Mo Lian, don't go to salute yet."

Mo Lian was frightened, and it took her a while to react before she hurried forward to salute.

"Mo Lian sends greetings to all masters."

"Mo Lian has always served the emperor, and I came back to serve me again when I came back. She naturally knows what the emperor likes, and I can't be more at ease if she takes care of her."

"Changning, can you discuss this matter with the emperor?" The queen mother is actually very unclear, since she is already married to Huangfu Shenqian, why would she give him another woman?

"That's natural. Today is just to talk to everyone. Don't miss the etiquette when we meet in the future."

Xi Changning glanced at Xi Lingyan, who happened to be looking at him too, with eyes that wanted to step forward and kill her.

"The empress is newly married, and now thinking about accepting concubines for the emperor, will others mistakenly think that the emperor is not doing his job properly?" Xi Lingyan adjusted her mentality and tried her best to make herself look less impatient, but in fact, she could no longer control herself.

"Concubine Hua's words don't matter if we talk about it ourselves, but we must not tell others to listen to it. This is a capital offense."

Knowing that she would not give in so easily, Xi Changning turned to other people.

"Do other people have any opinions? Presumably the Queen Mother and the Empress Dowager have no objections."

Xi Changning looked at the two high-ranking ladies, obviously he could not change Xi Changning's decision, so he acquiesced.Especially the Empress Dowager, she seemed very happy to see Xi Changning making trouble in the harem.

"Everything is up to the empress." The remaining concubines didn't dare to say anything at all.

"Then make Mo Lian a concubine. As for the title, I will naturally have to wait for the emperor to decide."

"She is just a court lady, how come she is a concubine, isn't this embarrassing the other sisters?"

Naturally, Xi Lingyan couldn't accept that a court lady like Mo Lian was equal to her, and looked at Xi Changning fiercely. Did she do everything just to get revenge on her?She stole the emperor's love by herself, and now she has to add another person to divide it up. This is clearly torturing her!
"The other sisters have only been in the palace for a short time, and Mo Lian has served the emperor for many years. Naturally, she deserves her hard work."

Xi Changning ridiculed Xi Lingyan to enter the palace so that she could only get the concubine position in the end, and now the emperor's affection for her has long since dissipated.The concubine at the side knew the queen's intentions and didn't dare to say more, but only nodded in acquiescence.

In the end, the queen mother left Xi Changning alone to talk, and the content was just these few things.

"Changning, I don't know what happened to you, but since you chose the emperor and Zimian started again, don't be obsessed."

"To be honest with the Queen Mother, Chang Ning understands very well that some grudges cannot be dissipated, so he has to take revenge. As for Mo Lian, she has a relationship with the Emperor, so she can take care of her better than a scheming person like Ling Yan."

After hearing this, the queen mother felt that Xi Changning was not really hard-hearted, she just felt that she still had no feelings for the emperor, so she asked Mo Lian to make up for it.

"Then what about Changning? Is it the emperor or Zimian?"

Xi Changning couldn't answer, the emperor was domineering and gentle to her, and she and Zimian were in the same mind, but they couldn't pass the hurdle of life and death, and now they are even more strangers.

But the inexplicable heartbeat reminded her that the person in her heart has not changed after all.

"Grandma Huang, Queen Mother, Uncle Huang is here."

Huangfu Yi led a dusty and immortal man to appear outside the door. He was still in the same purple robe, with a jade crown and hair tied up. He was more slender and immortal than two years ago. Such a unique temperament made him It is impossible to ignore.

"See the Queen Mother and Empress Empress."

Only after this salutation did Xi Changning realize the reality, why meeting him is always so funny, either sister-in-law or sister-in-law, his status is far different now than before.

Such inexplicable emotions caused Xi Changning's heart to beat, restless, and she covered her heart in a daze.
