The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 554 Another Life (18)
Ye Hanyu has indeed had a smooth life recently, even though the emperor didn't have much luck with her Lan Ruoxuan, he would go to sit with her from time to time, and he didn't neglect her.Even among the concubines, Concubine Li's current imperial favor cannot even be compared with Qingchen, so no one will have trouble with her anymore.

On the other hand, Qingchen, ever since he recognized the Mu family as his mother's family, the emperor seldom set foot in Duanyang Palace, occasionally went to have lunch, and didn't have much time to chat. Xiao Jun hurried away again.

"Chen'er, I know what you're thinking. Do you think Concubine Li has robbed you of your favor?" Ye Hanyu looked into the distance, her tone seemed a little helpless, "Actually, it wasn't she who robbed us, but These things should have belonged to her. If the Xie family hadn’t happened like that, our emperor would not be able to ascend the throne and become emperor, and she would also become a princess, and she would be the only princess in Prince Xiao’s mansion. Even if the queen waits until her hair turns gray I will never have the chance to marry the emperor again. Life is like this. The Xie family fell, but the emperor made the emperor rule the world. To put it bluntly, if the Xie family did not murder the prince, how could the emperor Will there be a chance to inherit the great treasure?"

Qingchen understands what Ye Hanyu means, regardless of whether Xiao Jun has the idea of ​​competing for the crown, even if the Xie family supports him, but the Xie family has created an opportunity for Xiao Jun to ascend the throne. From this point alone, the Xie family It is indeed his great hero.

Looking at it from another angle, the Xie family sacrificed the entire family in exchange for the emperor's throne. This is a fact, and it has nothing to do with whether Xiao Jun is willing to be the emperor.

"I understand what my sister means. I'm not jealous of her, and I won't blame anyone. If the emperor has me in his heart, he won't wrong me. If he doesn't, I won't fight with others. I will try my best to get her." The little pity that comes is always unreliable, and it will only make yourself feel more small and pitiful."

A gust of wind blew, bringing a faint flute sound, Ye Hanyu said in surprise: "Who is playing the flute? Such a good flute sound is rarely heard, let's not think about those unhappy things, go and see there Who is the flute player?"

Qingchen was also a little curious, the musicians in the palace were not allowed to go out and walk around at will, especially here in the harem. I don't know who has such ability to play so well, could it be Xiao Jue?
Thinking of him, Qingchen couldn't help frowning, and couldn't help but slow down.Ye Hanyu turned her head and saw her dawdling, so she took her hand and walked forward quickly, "Go faster, or you won't see anyone."

Being dragged by Ye Hanyu reluctantly, she quickened her pace, turned around the corridor and came to the Shufang Pavilion. Inside the pavilion, Xiao Jun was playing the flute with her back to them, and the Concubine Li, who was dressed in a fine attire, was dancing gracefully below her. , the eyes are bright and affectionate, and the concubine loves you and me, it is such a loving and lingering picture.

Qingchen couldn't see Xiao Jun's expression, and he didn't want to see it. Such a beauty is currently performing dances, and he is a beloved person. His face must be gentle and satisfied.

If the boiling water in her heart is hot and uncomfortable, she can't be calm for a moment, angry and sour, she suddenly wants to go up to interrupt them, and want to see what kind of expression Xiao Jun will have on her face at this moment .

Thinking like this, she couldn't help but walk forward, Ye Hanyu hastily stretched out her hand and grabbed her, "Chen'er can't make mistakes, if this time passes by, if the Emperor is not happy, won't he annoy you?"

Qingchen stopped suddenly, and the sadness in his heart swept over him. It's not that he didn't know that women in this era have no status, but seeing her husband go to Qin Muchu, she couldn't even complain, and couldn't even dampen his interest. This kind of grievance may be acceptable to others, but for her, it is really intolerable.

"Annoyed me?" Qingchen's complexion was very bad, turning gray little by little, and the originally boiling and unbearable mood gradually cooled down. Ye Hanyu was right, he is the emperor, and he has so many concubines. How could she have forgotten that she was just one of them?He doesn't belong to her alone, why is he so annoyed and unbearable when he sees such a scene?

"Yes, I shouldn't have spoiled the emperor's elegance." She bit her pale lips tightly, turned around and wanted to leave, "Why do I always forget my duty?"

He is the emperor, not her husband, and she has no right to ask whoever he is happy with. This feeling is the same as stabbing her own heart with a knife. She can't be as magnanimous as Ye Hanyu, she really can't do it !
Over there, Concubine Li probably saw the two of them by accident, so she stopped dancing and pointed to the emperor where they were standing.

The sound of the flute stopped abruptly, Xiao Jun turned around and saw the two of them, she was startled for a moment, then she turned her hands behind her without any trace and put the flute in her hand behind her.

Concubine Li smiled and said: "Sister Ye and Sister Rong Guipin are very interested today, since we met, why don't you come and sit for a while, I have prepared good tea here, let's sit together and enjoy the snow scene. "

Unable to leave, Qingchen had no choice but to follow Ye Hanyu into the pavilion, and respectfully bowed to the emperor. Concubine Li poured tea with her own hands and handed it over, "The weather is fine today, so my sister told someone to invite you two." Come over to sit and sit together, but the emperor doesn't want anyone to disturb you, probably because he is afraid that the sky will freeze and hurt his heart, but the emperor doesn't feel sorry for his concubine, if he insists on bringing his concubine out to enjoy the snow, his concubine's hands will be frozen Now, the emperor won't warm you up." When he spoke, he had already put his hands into his arms, and he didn't care about the presence of others at all.

With a faint smile on the corner of Qingchen's mouth, she hugged the teacup in her hand. It was clearly freshly brewed tea, but she didn't smell the fragrance of the tea, and there was only astringency in her mouth. She said lightly, "Thank you for the tea, Concubine Li. Mengding Ganlu is really not a vulgar product."

Such an intimate and casual behavior, even in private, I'm afraid no one is as unruly as the emperor, if he didn't understand her intentions, it would be really enviable.Qingchen sneered inwardly, it was just to show off that the emperor wanted to be alone with her and didn't want to be disturbed by outsiders, as if others were fools who couldn't tell.

Turning to look at Ye Hanyu, seeing that she also seemed a little uncomfortable, she gave Qingchen a slightly apologetic look, as if regretting that she should not have been brought here, this kind of scene makes people feel uncomfortable Just feel good.

Xiao Jun didn't move, but put the jade flute in her hand into her sleeve, and said with a slight smile, "I said you would go back earlier, but now you feel cold and blame me."

Qingchen put down the teacup, stroked the water-red silk handkerchief of golden thread bluegrass in his hand, slightly curled his lips, and said in a joking tone: "The emperor is busy with state affairs, and he rarely has time to go out and walk with the sisters of which palace recently. The imperial concubine can have such an opportunity to go to the garden with the emperor to enjoy the snow, so she is naturally reluctant to go back. She would rather suffer from the cold and spend more time with the emperor, others are not so blessed."
