The palace concubine is charming and chaotic: the country is still the same

Chapter 118 - The Heartbreak (5)

Jiang Cairen immediately echoed after hearing this: "Yes, my concubine also heard that nobleman Lan spent the night in the emperor's bedroom last night. A concubine is not qualified to spend the night with the emperor. She really doesn't know the importance."

Shi Jingrou snorted coldly: "The emperor said that she is qualified, so she is qualified, but Jiang Cairen, you also had the emperor's favor at the beginning, why did you not move here when the nobleman Lan came?"

Jiang Cairen's face turned green, and he said angrily: "I don't know what tricks Lan nobles have used to make the whole harem be neglected. As the lord of the palace, you should be the master of the concubines."

At this moment, Xia Lanyue had already stepped into the side hall, the corners of her skirt were slightly wet, her face was faintly pale, and what Jiang Cairen said just now passed into her ears impartially, but she pretended not to hear it , stepped inside, and greeted with blessings: "See the imperial concubine."

Jiang Cairen looked at Xia Lanyue coldly, and said with a sarcasm: "Mr. Lan is so arrogant. You have so many sisters waiting for you. If you are pregnant, your airs will be much bigger."

Xia Lanyue ignored Jiang Cairen's sarcasm, and lowered her eyebrows and said calmly: "My concubine felt unwell when she went out this morning, so she rested for a while before coming to pay her respects, and hope she will forgive her."

"Sit down." Shi Jingrou ordered lightly: "Now you are a healthy person, if something goes wrong with me, the emperor may blame me."

Rong Xiuyuan immediately answered: "Why did the imperial concubine make such a statement, now you are the master of the first palace, if a concubine made a mistake, it is reasonable to punish her to stand more, the emperor is wise, naturally he will not blame the empress. "

Xia Lanyue walked slowly into her seat, and when she heard that everyone was pointing at her, she felt helpless in her heart. In fact, ever since she knew she was pregnant, she had already predicted that she would be the target of public criticism in the future.

Mu Yanran, who hadn't spoken all the time, fiddled with the ruby ​​agate ring on her index finger, and said with a smile: "The emperor has been ill for a while, and it just so happens that you also said you couldn't recover from the illness, and once the emperor's illness recovers, your illness will follow suit. , you will have a healthy body as soon as the disease is cured. It seems that you and the emperor really have a heart-to-heart connection, and they are connected by a thread."

Xia Lanyue could hear the obvious mockery in her tone, and secretly speculated that maybe she knew that she and Su Chen had left the palace a long time ago, and that she, Mu Yanran, was Mu Piaoyu's biological sister, so she could even ask questions from him softly. The clues come.

"The concubine also thinks it's a coincidence." Xia Lanyue replied with a smile.

"Having a body is a blessing, but you have to be able to bear this blessing. Now that you are favored by the dragon, there are many people who hate you. Besides, you come from a humble background, but there are many open and dark arrows aimed at you. You But you have to protect your child, if you are not careful, even the emperor can't protect you." There was something in Mu Yanran's words, and Shi Jingrou naturally heard that the words were not only aimed at Xia Lanyue, but also directed at herself. So he twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "Even though nobleman Lan came from a humble background, she is pregnant with a dragon seed. If anyone dares to lay hands on the emperor's heir, the emperor will not forgive him lightly, no matter who she is."

"It's natural." Mu Yanran didn't continue this topic, and asked with a smile: "I heard from the palace people that the emperor sent someone to write to the emperor of Qi, asking his prospective concubine's mother and concubine to live in Wei. This is really an honor. But my concubine is worried that the emperor of Qi will allow your concubine to come to Wei. As far as I know, your concubine's status in Qi is not high. If the emperor did not love Princess Jingrou, she would have been deposed early. gone."
