Concubine Huang said she wanted to leave

Chapter 513 Jin Qilan

I saw that the woman in front of me was completely different from the previous Shang Kelan, but she was wearing this familiar purple palace dress, but Zhizi felt that she was Shang Kelan himself.

Soon, realizing that she was distracted, Zhizi withdrew her gaze calmly, and said respectfully: "Please go see His Royal Highness after breakfast, Miss Lan."

Although she reacted quickly, Shang Kelan still saw the amazement that flashed from her eyes at that moment.

So, a smile flashed in her eyes, and then she sat down at the table and waited for the maid to serve the dishes.

I don't know whether it was intentional or not, but the dishes served today are all her favorites, including chicken soup, glutinous rice cakes, a boiled egg, a stack of small pickles, three meat dishes, a bowl of jasper millet porridge, Plus a stack of cut fruit.

These dishes are not the most exquisite food in the imperial dining room, but they are Shang Kelan's favorite.

It was only now that Zhi Zi saw the food Shang Kelan was eating. For a moment, she couldn't help but look at Shang Kelan who was eating breakfast, and asked softly: "Your Majesty ordered this breakfast today, Miss Lan Do you still have the habit of eating?"

Shang Kelan didn't think too much, and subconsciously replied: "The combination of meat and vegetables, comprehensive nutrition, and fruit, I like it very much. The chef in the imperial dining room tastes really good!"

She took a sip of porridge with a nostalgic expression on her face.

But Zhizi narrowed her eyes slightly, and looked at her with a look of suspicion: She has served the empress for so long, and these breakfasts are obviously the empress's favorite food, why does Lan Ke look like the empress? Even act like this?
However, what makes Zhizi feel even more strange is that she does all these things in a natural way, not like a temporary imitation or a learned one.

But when she didn't notice, Shang Kelan also secretly glanced at her, with a smile flashing in her eyes: Has Zhizi noticed it?Whether it is Lan Ke or Shang Kelan, she is actually alone.

Seeing the inadvertent entanglement in Zhizi's eyes, Shang Kelan was in a good mood, and followed Zhizi to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to meet the Queen Mother. Because the little prince was raised in the Queen Mother's Palace, Shang Kelan could only come to this.

When approaching the Palace of Compassion and Peace, Shang Kelan was just in time for the morning, and the Empress Dowager would have lunch in a quarter of an hour.

The sky is clear and the sun is shining brightly, inside the Ci Ning Palace.

In the yard, the queen mother was drinking tea, and after a while, Wanqin came over with a woman in purple.

The Empress Dowager looked back at the sound of footsteps, but when she saw Shang Kelan, her eyes showed shock, and she couldn't help muttering: "Concubine Chen?"

Immediately, she shook her head, and Lan Ke's appearance appeared in her eyes.

The queen mother breathed a sigh of relief, couldn't help laughing at herself and said: I really scared myself, how could the dead come back to life?
However, this woman is really too much like Concubine Chen!
When Shang Kelan approached, the Empress Dowager stood up to greet her, and Shang Kelan also respectfully saluted her: "Minister Lan Ke, see the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager is a thousand years old!"

The queen mother smiled and helped her up: "You are Miss Lan? You look much better up close than yesterday, but why did you come to the Compassionate Palace of Aijia?"

On the side, Zhi Zi stepped forward and replied respectfully: "Return to the Empress Dowager, Miss Lan is a loyal and filial person. She heard that the Empress Dowager has lived in the Palace of Compassion and Peace for a long time, so Miss Lan wanted to visit the Empress Dowager and talk to the Empress Dowager by the way."

Even though Shang Kelan came to the Compassionate Ning Palace to see the little prince, she couldn't say that clearly.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the empress dowager's precious grandson, and she has never been willing to let outsiders look at her. Even if she is attending a palace banquet, when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has to attend, the Empress Dowager always asks her majesty to bring him by her side.

At this moment, the Empress Dowager and Lan Ke are not yet familiar, so if she speaks out her intentions rashly, it will only arouse the suspicion of the Empress Dowager.

Shang Kelan naturally understood the details, but she didn't expect Zhizi to rescue her.

Sure enough, after hearing this, the Empress Dowager looked at Shang Kelan with some satisfaction in her eyes.

"Then let's sit outside with Ai's family for a while, I don't know where Miss Lan is from?"

The Queen Mother spoke in a gentle tone, and helped Shang Kelan to sit down at the table.

Shang Kelan replied calmly: "The folk girl came from Shuzhou, and she was acquainted with Mrs. Su in Lu Shilang's residence."

"Oh, it turns out Miss Lan is a relative of Lu Shilang's family."

This morning, as soon as the queen mother got up, Jin Yantang came to her and asked her to send those beautiful girls out of the palace, and told her the truth that this girl from Lan Ke was the one he liked.

The queen mother only wanted someone to accompany Jin Yantang, she didn't care how many concubines there were in the harem.

Furthermore, Miss Lan is young and beautiful, if Jin Yantang loves her, will she still be unable to conceive an heir?
The Queen Mother understood clearly, and her attitude towards Shang Kelan was more gentle.

While the two were talking, they sat down on the stone table under the elm tree, and seemed to mention it inadvertently. Shang Kelan's eyes flashed slightly, and she smiled and said to the Queen Mother: "I heard that His Highness the Crown Prince is talented, and even the Taifu praised him. , I wonder if the Empress Dowager has any secret recipes for teaching children? I can also teach my naughty little brother in the future."

Doesn't this mean that the queen mother is good at teaching her children?
Hearing this, the queen mother patted Shang Kelan's hand with a smile, and said to her as if to teach her experience: "How can there be any secret recipe for teaching children? Precepts and deeds are very important, but sometimes it's good to listen to children's ideas. Unfortunately, this The child's mother passed away so early that the little prince often asks about my mother."

This is where the empress dowager has a headache. I am afraid that when he grows up, even the empress dowager will not be able to teach him.

Hearing what the queen mother said, an indescribable emotion flashed in Shang Kelan's heart, guilt and helplessness intertwined, as if an invisible hand pinched her a little out of breath.

But soon, she comforted the Empress Dowager and said: "The little prince will understand in the future, but it's almost noon, and the little prince should go to school, so the maid will not disturb the empress dowager to have dinner with the little prince, and the maid will leave. "

What she said just now made Shang Kelan a little timid, she hadn't figured out what to say when she saw Peach Blossom Crisp.

The queen mother felt that Lan Ke was quite happy chatting with her, so she stayed: "Why are you going? If Miss Lan doesn't dislike Aijia, she can stay here and have dinner together."

In a few words, the queen mother can't fully see her temperament, so she stays for dinner and spends more time with her, so that the queen mother can understand this girl Lan better.

After all, judging from what Jin Yantang meant, his feelings for Miss Lan didn't seem to be fake.

"No..."

Shang Kelan was about to resign, but a tender and soft voice sounded at the same time as her voice at the entrance of the Palace of Compassion and Peace.

He only heard the human say: "Grandmother, I'm back!"

Grandmother?
Suddenly, Shang Kelan froze, and all the emotions in her heart poured out as if she couldn't close the gate. She subconsciously looked back, but saw a little boy wearing azure embroidered with a four-clawed golden dragon pattern, looking towards them. come.

The boy had a bit of baby fat on his face, but he was not very fat. He was tall and thin, with very bright eyes.

He looked young, but there was a majesty between his eyebrows, his appearance was exactly like Jin Yantang, but he was not as cold as Jin Yantang.
