The slave family is not a disaster

Chapter 402
"Hehe, it seems that the emperor still remembers this matter." Ye Anran smiled sweetly.

"Of course, An Ran, you amazed everyone that day. That Qinglian painting can be said to be the only one in the world, but I am very curious, how did you do it? The lotus is obviously so insignificant, no At first glance, why did you become so vivid after you sprayed it with tea?" It seems that the emperor sometimes has a strong curiosity like a child.

"It's very simple. It's a special kind of powder. When painting, the concubine has been using it to paint. Although under normal conditions, she looks so insignificant, but if she touches water, she will immediately become huge. The reaction made the whole painted place so realistic." Ye Anran explained with a smile.

"So that's the case, hehe, it's really amazing. How did you know that there is such a powder? I have been in the palace for many years, but I have never heard of it or seen it." The emperor solved the doubts in his heart, and he couldn't help feeling better.

"Chen Qie started to practice painting when she was very young. At that time... Chen Qie's father traveled all over the country to run a tea plantation, so whenever he came across any strange and good things, he would immediately bring them back to my sister and me. The powder is a kind of tea. , Later, seeing that I like it, Dad bought a lot of them for me, so that now, there are still several boxes in the cabinet of my concubine, but it's a pity... things are different, Dad and sister are gone." Ye Anran Said with emotion.

"Anran, I'm sorry, I brought up your sad past again." The emperor walked over guiltily, took Ye Anran's hand and apologized.

"It doesn't matter, it's been so long, I don't care about it anymore, I believe my sister and parents are watching me in the sky." Ye Anran smiled gratifiedly.

The emperor also breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't know that Ye Anran's pretended strength was only on the surface. In fact, in her heart, she never forgot about this matter, and she was thinking more and more deeply. In this matter, I have been thinking about how to avenge my sister and my dead parents all the time.

"Report to the emperor." A young soldier came over and knelt on one knee.

"Say." The emperor turned his head to look at the young soldier.

"Report to the emperor, His Royal Highness King Huai defeated the Shigang Kingdom, and the Shigang Kingdom was defeated. He proposed to cede land and pay 10 taels of gold and seven cities. His Royal Highness King Huai is already on his way back. This time he returned in triumph. "The young soldier reported impassionedly.

"Okay, haha, Mo is really good, I didn't let me down, let's go, An Ran, let's meet these soldiers who have returned in triumph, and reward them for their merits." Ye Anran recovered from his injuries, Xi Gongmo won another battle , For the emperor, it is indeed great news.

"Yes, my concubine obeys." Ye Anran bowed and forced a smile on her face.

In fact, she always feels unfair to the emperor at this time. The emperor probably doesn't know that she and Xi Gongmo have joined forces secretly. The seemingly gentle and gentle King Huai is actually the most ambitious man, but the emperor seems to be the most ambitious man. Did not see his face clearly.

Sometimes, trusting a person too much is not a good thing...

Inside the Shengjun Pavilion
The emperor's great defeat banquet rewarded the commander of the three armies, King Huai Xigongmo, deputy commander Zhao Lengyun, and some capable soldiers.

"Come on, let me respect you with this glass of wine. You are the most heroic soldiers of our Tianmu. This time, you not only avenged my safety, but also devoured a lot of their land and silver. I think that as long as we give time, Take down the Shigang country in one go, and then deal with Liuyun with power, then...the grand plan of unifying the world will be just around the corner." The emperor was in a good mood, and took the initiative to raise the wine glass.

Xi Gongmo, Zhao Lengyun and a group of people responded to the emperor one after another...

"Lonely, this time, you won the battle. As the coach, you have contributed a lot. What reward do you want?" The emperor looked at Xi Gongmo with a smile and asked.

Xi Gongmo lowered his head, leaned over and cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, this time, my younger brother can win the battle thanks to General Zhao's power and assistance. If the Emperor wants to reward meritorious deeds, he can reward General Zhao." It seems that Xi Gongmo is extremely humble this time. .

Can't help but let the emperor have a little more favor...

"Your Majesty, I can't help it. This time, the general didn't show much strength. He was able to defeat the Shigang Kingdom in one fell swoop. It was because His Highness King Huai used his troops like a god and led well." Zhao Lengyun immediately replied.

"Hehe, you two are so humble, I will reward each of you with ten thousand taels of silver, ten bolts of fine cloth, and one horse for sweat and blood, how about it?" The emperor was delighted, and said the reward.

"My minister, thank you for your great love." Xi Gongmo and Zhao Lengyun immediately knelt down to thank the emperor.

"Your Majesty, why didn't you reward them with beauties, it's a pity that they only have BMWs but no beauties." Ye Anran said half-jokingly.

Unexpectedly, before the emperor could speak, Zhao Lengyun rushed to say: "Your Majesty, there is absolutely no way to force it. The general already has a wife at home, and the husband and wife are loving. He doesn't want any beautiful women. It's better... Let's get rid of it."

Seeing Zhao Lengyun's embarrassing look, the emperor chuckled: "Zhao Lengyun, are you really serious? But the imperial concubine is teasing you?"

"Hehe, the emperor still understands his concubines." Ye Anran smiled mischievously.

Xi Gongmo also smiled and said nothing, it seems that he already knew that Ye Anran was joking, and didn't take it to heart at all. Poor Zhao Lengyun, who didn't know Ye Anran's temperament, actually took it seriously.

"By the way, Your Majesty, General Jing who is stationed on the border of Xuechen Kingdom is coming back to visit relatives soon, can your Majesty summon him?" Zhao Lengyun took the initiative to change the subject in order to avoid an embarrassing atmosphere.

"Are you talking about Jing Wuhen?" The emperor asked back.

"Returning to the emperor, it is true that Jing Wuhen has been stationed on the border of Xuechen Kingdom for more than three years now, and has never returned home once. It can be said that he is a general who serves the country and the people. For sure, he probably won't come back. In the past three years, Xuechen Kingdom has had him guarding there. Queen Xuechen seems to be a lot more honest, and she dare not make any small moves. Hand it in every year." Zhao Lengyun revealed his respect for Jing Wuhen between the lines.

How can the emperor not understand?Before this Jing Wuhen went to Xuechen Kingdom, he had a good relationship with Zhao Lengyun, and he was really good and loyal, so needless to say, the emperor would not treat this general badly.

"I must see him, and I also want to entertain him. In recent years, he has indeed made a lot of contributions to the court." The emperor nodded.

"General Jing must be very happy to know that the emperor thinks highly of him." Zhao Lengyun said excitedly.

"Well, it's getting late, you guys should go back and rest early." Seeing that it was getting late, the emperor gave an order.

"Yes, that humble minister will leave." Xi Gongmo and Zhao Lengyun left one after another.

Before Xi Gongmo left, she took a deep look at Ye Anran, and Ye Anran knew that he had something to say.

"Anran, let's go, it's time for us to rest." The emperor took Ye Anran's hand and walked towards Yanran Palace.

"Your Majesty, it's not good..." Eunuch Zhu hurried over with a lantern in hand, reporting back.

"What's wrong?" The emperor frowned slightly.

"Something happened over there at Mingyue Palace." Eunuch Zhu was out of breath as he ran.

"Mingyue Palace, what happened to Yue'er?" Hearing that it was Mingyue Palace, the emperor was a little anxious, after all he still cared about his sister Xi Gongyue.

"Princess Yue's old illness relapsed, curled up in the cabinet and refused to come out, and refused to be examined by the imperial physician. This old slave is dying of anxiety."

"Really? Come on, take me to have a look." The emperor turned and wanted to leave.

"Your majesty...do you want my concubine to come with you?" Ye Anran gently grabbed the corner of the emperor's clothes and asked.

"No need, An Ran, you are just recovering from a serious illness, and you are not in good health, so don't worry about it, my dear, go and rest, I won't be going tonight." After finishing speaking, the emperor stroked Ye Anran's beautiful hair , turned and left.

Ye Anran raised the corners of her mouth and smiled... It's just right not to come, but it suits her heart, because she knows that Xi Gongmo has something to say to herself.

Smile Palace

"Xiaoguang, you all step back, I'm going to rest." With a wave of his hand, he sent Xiaoguang and the maids away.

"Yes, master, you should rest well, and if you have something to do, call your servant." Xiaoguang stepped back cautiously.

Ye Anran closed the doors and windows, turned around and entered the small black room that enshrined her sister's spiritual tablet. In the small black room, Xi Gongmo had been waiting for a long time.

"It's getting harder and harder to see you now. If I hadn't found someone to make Xi Gongyue sick, I wouldn't be able to see you tonight." Xi Gongmo smiled.

"Did you do Xigongyue on purpose?" Ye Anran frowned, seemingly displeased.

"That's right, if you don't do this, how can you leave the mountain and let the emperor go?" Xi Gongmo asked nonchalantly.

"But this method is a bit too much, Xi Gongyue is pitiful enough." It seems that Ye Anran disagrees with Xi Gongmo's cruel method.

Because when Xi Gongyue was ill, she also saw it, she was very pitiful, she was curled up in a ball, and she dared not see anyone.

"An Ran, when did you become soft-hearted again? Did you live comfortably with the emperor for too long, and you forgot all your hatred? Could it be...you forgot how your sister died? You have to How did mother die?" Seeing that Ye Anran felt sympathy for Xi Gongyue, Xi Gongmo immediately reminded her.

"You don't need to remind me, I know very well that this is my sister's spirit seat." Ye Anran said with a finger pointing.

Xigong gave a lonely look: "Then don't be too kind, remember, kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself."

"What can you do with me, tell me." Ever since seeing Xi Gongmo's true face clearly, Ye Anran suddenly felt that there was no closeness between him and him like a friend before.

"Today, the emperor and Zhao Lengyun mentioned Jing Wuhen, right?" Xi Gongmo didn't beat around the bush, and went straight to the point.

"I know, but I'm not familiar with this person." Ye Anran said realistically.

"After a few days, he will come back. He is a rare talent, but unlike Zhao Lengyun, Zhao Lengyun only obeys the emperor, but this Jing Wuhen hasn't made it clear that he wants to follow him. Now, Xi Gongjue is also I want to win him over, the emperor also wants to win him over, and I... also want to win him over." Xi Gongmo said slowly.

"What do you want me to do?" Ye Anran asked calmly.

"You are a noble concubine now, and you have a very important position in the harem. I want you to win over this Jing Wuhen for me. You can give him a marriage and let him marry the person we arranged. In this way, our chances of winning will be greater." Xi Gong Lonely said word by word.

"Hehe, bestowing a marriage? I don't seem to have that much power. This kind of thing is done by the queen mother and queen, and I... just a noble concubine. King Huai, you think highly of me." Ye Anran smiled slowly, It seems that he doesn't agree with Xi Gongmo's idea.
