palace heart

Chapter 9
It would be better if Li Qianlan was an incompetent woman, but ten years ago Li Qianlan's intelligence had already spread throughout the capital, and everyone knew about it.There are many people who feel sorry for such a talented woman.The Dahong Dynasty did not restrain women like the previous dynasty. There were countless female officials in the dynasty, and they also showed their prominence in some positions. If it weren't for the changes in the Li family, Li Qianlan would have entered the palace as an official and had great power.

As long as Li Qianlan appears, those who have endured for ten years will definitely appear.The rebel forces must have exposed their flaws, not to mention that they can catch them all, but they can also control nine out of ten.

It would be even more icing on the cake if he could attract members of the former prince's remaining party.Even if you can't, you can make an example!

However, there is always a gap between Empress Dowager Gao and Emperor Ying, but it can be repaired for several years by this matter.Or, Empress Dowager Gao wants to make the outside world stable, so what can she do with her spare energy?

No matter which one it is, she, Li Qianlan, is destined to be used by Empress Dowager Gao. Even if she doesn't do anything in that position, Empress Dowager Gao still has the means to make her do something.Li Qianlan, who was already in awe of Empress Dowager Gao, wanted to run away even more.

Empress Dowager Gao likes Li Qianlan's intelligence, and she likes her knowledge of current affairs even more.Even if she doesn't want to do it, knowing that the situation is unfavorable and requires compromise, she doesn't need to spend too much words.But how would she undo the locks that bound her body?
Lucky watched Li Qianlan weigh the pros and cons with interest, knowing that Li Qianlan would only choose to bow down at her feet, but liked to appreciate the struggle on her face.

Li Qianlan let out a heavy breath, "Thank you Empress Dowager for your love, Qianlan is willing to serve the Empress Dowager around."

Empress Dowager Gao laughed again, "Zhong Shanggong, pass on the decree of Aijia Yi, Aijia Li Men Jiang's family is innocent, Aijia likes Qianlan, let her stay in Dexuan Palace to listen to."

Zhong Shanggong, who was standing beside Empress Dowager Gao, said lightly, "Yes."

After finishing speaking, his indifferent eyes swept over Li Qianlan's body, and went to lead someone to draw up an order.

"Lin Shanggong, take Qianlan to change clothes, let her go to see Li Jiangshi." After the Queen Mother finished speaking, she closed her eyes and rested her mind.Li Qianlan walked out with Lin Shanggong who came over.

After leaving the gate of the main hall of the Dexuan Hall, Li Qianlan felt relieved, suddenly felt weak, and almost fell down the steps with a stagger.Lin Shanggong is only 21 and [-] years old, and his temper is not as calm as Zhong Shanggong. Seeing Li Qianlan like this, he burst into a smile, "Just now I saw that you were very brave and acted boldly in front of the empress dowager, why are you so soft now? "

She was loyal to the queen mother, because the queen mother wanted to use Li Qianlan, she naturally treated her as one of her own, and showed a bit of her detachment.

Li Qianlan could tell that Lin Shanggong was not thinking deeply, so he couldn't help but smile wryly.It's just that she still doesn't understand that although Empress Dowager Gao wants to use her, she doesn't completely regard her as her confidant.But looking at Lin Shanggong's sincere emotions, Li Qianlan couldn't bear to tell her about Empress Dowager Gao's intentions.He just smiled and said, "Lin Shanggong, weren't you afraid when you saw the Empress Dowager for the first time?"

Lin Shanggong stared at it and thought about it, then licked his tongue, "It's worse than you! Although the Empress Dowager didn't ask harshly, her voice was always gentle, but her majesty is awe-inspiring!"

Seeing Lin Shanggong's expression, Li Qianlan secretly remembered that Lin Shanggong admired the Queen Mother very much and could not show any disrespectful attitude in front of her. It would be more credible for someone like her to speak without deep thoughts.As long as she feels that something is wrong, Empress Dowager Gao will definitely believe it.

When Lin Shanggong took Li Qianlan to change clothes, Zhong Shanggong had already returned.She showed a worried look, "Didn't your lady say, isn't this Li Qianlan the best choice? Wouldn't it be bad for you to reuse her so much? Let Lin Shanggong follow her, what if she says something she shouldn't say? "

Empress Dowager Gao looked at the backs of the two of them leaving, and said lightly: "Li Qianlan is a sword, a sharp double tough sword, as long as she hurts the enemy. She is like Aijia, but not Aijia. Aijia The family is ruthless and careless, but she is very affectionate. Why do you think Aijia let Lin Shanggong follow? Because I want Lin Shanggong's affection, hold her. You will replace Lin Shanggong in a while and take Li Qianlan to see her. Her mother, Jiang Rui, Jiang Rui, I want to see, even after [-] years, the person who still surpasses my mother is what he is like!"

Li Qianlan followed Lin Shanggong to the back of the Dexuan Hall. Lin Shanggong opened the door and handed the silk gauze skirt and hang silk skirt on the screen to Li Qianlan. She was stunned at the time.Clothes made of this kind of fabric can only be worn by people in the palace.Although it is also the style of the palace ladies, the color is brighter in light yellow and pink green.

She only knew that when she met the emperor, she was in a state of embarrassment. Empress Dowager Gao asked her to wash up, but unexpectedly, she changed into this dress!

Seeing Li Qianlan's flattered look, Lin Shanggong pushed her to sit in front of the mirror, "The empress dowager has always been kind and generous to her subordinates, and has never treated anyone badly. I have heard that the empress dowager often mentions your intelligence, empress dowager I love you so much, you have to do things for the Empress Dowager with all your heart. You don’t have to feel that there is nothing you can’t bear, just keep your gratitude in mind, you are still a sinful servant, so naturally you can’t be directly named as a female official, Shanggong and female history, But there is still a distinction. You are going to see your mother, why don’t you dress up properly? Change your clothes later and let the maid outside call me.”

After all, Lin Shanggong went out.

Li Qianlan smiled wryly, probably in the entire palace, she was the only one who felt that the Queen Mother was benevolent and generous.Clean up your mood, freshen up and change clothes.He opened the door and wanted to call the maid to invite Lin Shanggong, but he didn't want to see Zhong Shanggong standing outside as soon as he opened the door.

"The Queen Mother told Lin Shanggong that Lin Shanggong has something to do, and I will take you to see your mother."

Li Qianlan was shocked. She had long guessed that with Lin Shanggong's character, Empress Dowager Gao would not let her see things she shouldn't see, and would not let her do certain things, let alone let her know.Could it be that my mother was treated inhumanly?
Li Qianlan, who had been anxious all the time, followed Zhong Shanggong and walked to the west wing not far from her. She was so close and did not hear the woman's screams, so she secretly comforted herself that Li Jiangshi was fine.But after entering inside, I realized that this wing room is just the place leading to the dungeon!

Zhong Shanggong ordered the eunuch guarding the gate to open the dungeon, and took the lead to go down.

Li Qianlan followed behind, only feeling a gust of cold wind blowing out, just staying here for a while, I felt cold all over my body, let alone Li Jiangshi who was locked up here for a whole day and night!
However, the only thing that reassured Li Qianlan was that there was no smell of blood in the wind blowing out.Then, her mother, even if she was injured, was still slightly injured.It was her only consolation.

Hearing someone coming down, Li Jiangshi climbed to the edge of the iron railing, grabbed the railing and shouted: "I was bullied by Chang Ji every day. I couldn't take it anymore, so I felt the desire to harm others, but I didn't kill anyone!"

After hearing Li Jiangshi's words, Li Qianlan was stunned, and she paused on the steps.After entering the palace, Li Qianlan never saw Li Jiangshi again, but her mother's voice hardly changed at all.I will be able to see my mother immediately, but I feel a sense of closeness to my hometown.

Zhong Shanggong noticed Li Qianlan's expression, and went down by himself without waiting for her.

Li Jiangshi pulled Zhong Shanggong's clothes, "Zhong Shanggong, please speak kindly to the Queen Mother, if I can survive, I will definitely repay you!"

Hearing Li Jiang's humble attitude, Li Qianlan remembered the charm of her mother in the past, and the bitterness in her heart burst out at this moment, she lifted her skirt and ran down.Because of the dim lights in the dungeon, I almost fell on the uneven stone platform several times.

"Why do you ask me to help you?"
