Concubine Huang said she wanted to leave

Chapter 536 Take the Prince
In the afternoon, Lanyue Palace.

In the yard, Wen Xiuyan was wearing a light purple tulle dress and sitting at the stone table playing the piano. With a light touch of her fingertips, the pleasant sound of the piano slowly drifted out.

At this time, a servant came quickly outside and whispered something in her ear respectfully.

After a while, Wen Xiuyan put down her hand playing the qin, and said in a cheerful mood: "It seems that Zhizi is still useful, since it is confirmed that she and that bitch Lan Ke are not on the same line, then I can rest assured to use it." She's gone, when does the prince leave school?"

"Reporting to Madam, there is still half an hour before school is over for His Royal Highness the Prince."

The servant replied respectfully, Wen Xiuyan nodded knowingly, then got up and ordered: "It's time to pick up His Highness the Crown Prince, and bring the peach blossom cakes that I specially asked the Imperial Dining Room to prepare for His Highness the Crown Prince."

"Yes, ma'am."

After the short conversation between the two, they walked towards the Imperial College one after the other.

At three o'clock in the unitary hour, it was time for the Imperial College to leave school. Shang Kelan changed into light lavender clothes to pick up Jin Qilan, and Zhi Zi followed behind her. Unexpectedly, when the two of them arrived at the Imperial College, they were told by the cleaning staff of the Imperial College, Wen Xiuyan picked up Jin Qilan half an hour earlier.

If he set off from Guozijian half an hour ago, Jin Qilan should have arrived at the Hall of Mental Cultivation by now.

For a while, Zhi Zi was worried, and her face was also a little anxious: "Your Majesty, this servant will take someone to find His Royal Highness the Crown Prince first!"

It's useless to panic at the moment, I can only force myself to calm down and deal with things.

Shang Kelan shook her hand: "Don't panic, since concubine Yue dared to take the prince away in front of the Imperial Academy, she would not dare to do anything to hurt the prince, otherwise she would be blamed too, you like this Look around, it's easy to fall into her trap."

"There are people everywhere in this palace, let's first find out where Concubine Yue took the prince, and in addition, you send someone to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to report, and say that I have kept the prince for dinner, so that the empress dowager doesn't have to worry. "

She calmed the narrator to Zhizi in an orderly manner, and Zhizi gradually stabilized her mind and did not panic anymore.

"Okay, the servant girl will join the lady later!"

Zhi Zi nodded in response with a serious expression, turned around and went to the Compassion Ning Palace to report.

Shang Kelan's eyes flickered slightly, and then on the way to Lanyue Palace, she inquired about the whereabouts of Wen Xiuyan and Jin Qilan. She asked all the way, and she heard Jin Qilan's voice by the lotus pond in the imperial garden.

"Concubine Yue, I have to go back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to see my father, otherwise my father will worry about me and send someone to look for me."

Shang Kelan searched for the voice and came to the lotus pond, only to see Jin Qilan and Wen Xiuyan sitting in the pavilion talking, and there was no maidservant nearby.

As soon as Jin Qilan's words fell, Wen Xiuyan comforted: "Don't worry, Your Highness, the palace has already notified Miss Lan to pick you up, she must be on the way... Ah, Miss Lan!"

It seemed that as soon as she finished speaking, she saw Shang Kelan's figure, so Wen Xiuyan got up and walked towards Shang Kelan.

Shang Kelan nodded to her, and Wen Xiuyan came to her and held her hand, and said kindly: "Miss Lan, I originally wanted to chat with the prince, but I didn't expect His Royal Highness to get closer to you. I'm really ashamed of myself."

No matter the expression or the eyes of this woman, no one can see anything unusual, it seems that she just brought the prince out to play.

Shang Kelan smiled at her, took her hand away without a trace, and held her hand: "The concubine Yue has such thoughts, even His Majesty will be pleased to hear that, the daughters of the people have to learn from the concubine Yue, Treat the prince with extra care."

With that said, Shang Kelan bypassed Wen Xiuyan, came to Jin Qilan, stretched out her hand to Jin Qilan and said, "Let's go back, His Royal Highness, Miss Zhizi didn't see you just now, she was worried, and she has gone to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to report to the Queen Mother Empress Dowager, I asked her to bring a message, saying that the concubine Yue is with you, so that the empress dowager need not worry."

These words were for Wen Xiuyan.

Wen Xiuyan's expression remained unchanged, with a friendly smile still on her face.

Jin Qilan glanced at the two of them, then took Shang Kelan's hand and walked out of the pavilion.

From the beginning to the end, Wen Xiuyan didn't make any obstructive or embarrassing actions, it seemed that she just brought Jin Qilan to chat.

She stood in the pavilion and watched the two leave, but the smile in her eyes gradually deepened.

On the way back to the palace with Jin Qilan, Shang Kelan deliberately walked with Jin Qilan to a crowded place. As soon as they reached the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the two met Zhizi walking towards them.

Seeing that Jin Qilan was fine, Zhizi, who had never believed in Buddhism, even said "Amitabha Buddha"!
"Great, Your Royal Highness, as long as you are safe!"

The way she breathed a sigh of relief seemed to silently tell Wen Xiuyan's horror.

Jin Qilan shook Zhizi's hand with a small hand, and explained with a smile: "Don't worry, Aunt Zhizi, I just talked to Concubine Yue for a while, she didn't hurt me, and she didn't do anything to me."

Seeing Zhizi's caring appearance, Shang Kelan couldn't help but feel a little helpless. After hearing Jin Qilan's words, she couldn't help but her eyes twinkled slightly, and asked, "Your Highness, what did the concubine Yue tell you?"

"I didn't say anything, just chatted about some daily chores and told me some stories."

Jin Qilan answered her in this way, and the group walked into the Hall of Mental Cultivation while talking, only to find that Jin Yantang was already standing in the bedroom waiting for them.

So, everyone stopped talking and saluted Jin Yantang together.

Today, he was wearing a black robe with a narrow waist and narrow sleeves inlaid with gold, and he looked a lot more majestic, but after seeing Jin Qilan and Monk Kelan, there was tenderness in his eyes, and he stepped forward to help them up, with a deep and magnetic voice He said: "You came back a bit late today, I asked the people in the imperial dining room to bring some food over."

"Yes, Father."

Jin Qilan obediently responded, and sat down quietly at the table.

When Shang Kelan saw Jin Yantang, his tense heart relaxed slightly today, and he and Jin Yantang sat down next to Jin Qilan on the left and right.

Jin Yantang stroked Jin Qilan's head, much gentler than before, and he asked, "I heard that you asked your husband for leave today, but your sister Lan sent you back to the Imperial College, is there such a thing?"

Jin Qilan blushed slightly, lowered her head in embarrassment and said, "Reporting to Father, I just want to play with Sister Lan..."

If it wasn't for Lan Ke's desire to unravel the rumors circulating in the palace, he would not have done anything unnecessary.

As he thought in his heart, there was no change on his face.

After hearing Jin Qilan's words, Jin Yantang smiled, and then said to Jin Qilan and Monk Kelan: "I just heard the rumors that have been circulating in the palace recently, and now it seems that the rumors are self-defeating."

Several people were chatting, a palace maid filed in and placed the dinner on the table.

Knowing that Jin Qilan likes to eat fish, Shang Kelan picked out these fish bones and picked a piece for him: "This fish is soft, tender, smooth, and delicious. Your Highness, try it."

Recently, Jin Qilan has gotten used to Shang Kelan serving him food, so he started to eat after thanking Shang Kelan.

On the side, Jin Yantang said a little jealously: "Lan'er, you haven't brought food for me for a long time."

"Very well, Your Majesty also has it."

Shang Kelan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and gave Jin Yantang another piece.
