The Regent's Concubine

Chapter 20 Sitting across from you is your future husband-in-law!

Long Hexiang's expression was rather smug, probably because he was entrusted with a heavy responsibility by Long Haotian to show off his might.

"Your Highness, the Second Prince has been amazing recently. Compared with the Third Prince, not many people care about it." Xia Yu did not forget to play the function of complaining, and said to Long Yunqin.

Long Yunqin watched a person flashing at the opposite corner, before he could stop Xia Yu, he had already seen that person face to face with her.She yelled inwardly that it was not good, and sure enough, people were not allowed to talk about people in broad daylight, as soon as Cao Cao was mentioned, someone would come, and it was the third prince Long Qingyang who approached her.

Long Qingyang's face was warm and moist as usual, and he didn't seem to have heard what the maid Xia Yu said just now, "His Royal Highness is in good health? I just returned to the palace not long ago, so I didn't have time to see you. Just in time for General Wenren to return to the capital, Father Emperor Let me help the second brother handle the reception matters together."

Long Yunqin's closeness to Long Qingyang felt weird. If she remembered correctly, she had nothing to do with the princes and princesses in the palace before, they were just nodding and greeting each other.

Long Qingyang is like this, he is too familiar.

"The third prince has a heart, and this palace is already well."

Long Qingyang nodded, as if he wanted to say something more, but found that this road was blocked by two teams of them, which was very inconvenient.After thinking about it, he asked Long Yunqin, "I don't know if Her Royal Highness is free, the sun is good today, can I go to the Imperial Garden for a walk?"

Long Yunqin wasn't sure what Long Qingyang wanted to express, but she could feel that he had something to say to her alone, so she nodded. "Xia Yu, you follow behind with someone. Bengong and the Third Prince will go to the Imperial Garden for a walk. We haven't seen each other for a long time. Let's catch up on the old days."

Xia Yu frowned, but she could only nod and lead the group to keep a distance from Long Yunqin.The same is true for Long Qingyang.

With no palace servants around, Long Qingyang's tone changed immediately, although his voice was small, he said clearly, "Sixth sister, you have been wronged these days."

Long Yunqin's footsteps faltered, and she didn't know how to feel about the sound of "Sixth Sister". She didn't seem to know him very well.

Seeing Long Yunqin's troubled face, Long Qingyang realized that he had said something quickly. He hadn't called her sixth sister for a long time, and she couldn't accept it long ago.Over the years, contact has become less and less, and she stopped him every time he wanted to visit her, and looking at him with strange eyes made him feel uncomfortable.

Once upon a time, she was such an innocent girl.

Long Qingyang paused, and pulled back the thoughts of memories. Today's Long Yunqin made him feel better, and his worries were much less.He spends more time outside than in the palace, and can help her very little. Every time he hears that she has done those "shocking" things, he knows that this is not her original intention, but just a kind of protective color of her.

"Sixth Sister, I know I'm being rude, but Third Brother will always remember that Sixth Sister said at the time that you believed in Third Brother in this palace, and Third Brother also remembered this friendship. There are few true brothers and sisters in the royal family, but Third Brother Brother believes in you."

So, now that he is back, he wants to protect her.

Long Yunqin felt a warmth flowing in her heart. It's not that she can't understand people's hearts. Long Qingyang's sincere expression and eyes revealed everything in his heart to her. If he is acting like this, he is really a master up.In contrast, she would rather believe in Long Qingyang's sincerity.

Unconsciously, she showed a sincere smile and responded softly, "Third brother."

This is the No.1 she recognized in the palace, and it is also the first friendship, brother-sister relationship.I just hope that Long Qingyang will not disappoint her efforts.

"Sixth sister, I call you like this when no one is around, and you know the current situation."

In fact, they all knew that in order to fight for the position of heir, they all wanted Long Haotian's approval.

The topic was sensitive, and the two of them did not continue, but instead talked about some trivial things. During the conversation, Long Qingyang told her about their childhood. She listened carefully and kept these as her own memories.It turned out that Long Qingyang and Long Yunqin were very good friends when they were young, and it had nothing to do with the concubines competing for favor in the harem, it was just because those two people liked simplicity.

But as the first empress left with a green waist, the fight for favor among the four concubines continued to intensify, and even the princes and princesses like them also changed, becoming indifferent and indifferent.

Long Qingyang's mother concubine, Concubine Wan, is a quiet person, but she also hopes to be favored by the emperor.The relationship between Long Qingyang and Long Yunqin faded away, and his mind was placed outside the palace.

"In recent years, not only the border has been in chaos, but the officialdom in Jiangnan has also been complicated. My grandfather was ordered by the emperor to investigate, and I volunteered to go to Jiangnan. I haven't returned to the palace these years. It's been several years since I left, and my sixth sister has grown up." Long Qingyang looked at the woman in front of him with a smile, it's not that she has grown up, she will be old in a few months, time flies so fast.

Long Yunqin also responded with a smile, but brought the topic to the celebration banquet ten days later, "General Wenren has been guarding the border for many years and now he is triumphant, and the father threw a banquet for him. Is the third brother jealous? You have been away for many years too!"

Long Qingyang froze for a moment, then shook his head with a light smile, "It is my honor to share my father's worries, and I am going out for my grandfather, which is not an imperial order, how can I compare with General Wenren." Long Qingyang directly My own achievements have been pushed back, as if I have been traveling in the mountains and rivers these years.

However, Long Yunqin knew that the officialdom was dangerous, and it was not easy for Long Qingyang to punish the corrupt officials in the south of the Yangtze River. With such achievements, if he became an official in the court, he would definitely be promoted to several levels.Long Qingyang's disregard for fame and fortune made her impressed.

She wanted to say something else, but Long Qingyang interrupted her, "It's almost time, it's hot outside, you should go back and rest earlier, don't think that you are better now and not take care of your body."

She nodded, bid farewell to Long Qingyang, turned around and led Xia Yu and others towards Chonghua Palace.

The biggest achievement today was meeting Long Qingyang. Talking to him made her feel a little popular in this cold palace. This kind of smile and words without a mask made her nostalgic.

For the third brother who suddenly appeared, she has no dislike. Although she doesn't trust Long Qingyang with all her heart, she has tried to accept him. This is the first time she has made an impulsive decision. Although she is afraid of risks, she is also willing to drink , just because she also wants to have a warmth.

Ten days passed quickly, and the palace feast was held as scheduled amidst the busy schedule.

To welcome the triumphant return of General Zhenbei, the Holy Majesty ordered that all officials of the fourth rank can bring their families to participate in the feast.

All civil and military officials were in turmoil for a while, and many of them wanted to take this opportunity to see Long Yan. If the daughter of the family could be favored by the Holy Majesty, it would be the ancestor's merit!If it doesn't work, then there are still princes and sons here!No matter how bad you are, you can still meet the princes of various ministers, and of course there is tonight's protagonist, the youngest general Wen Renmo. Wen Renmo's family is also a big family in the capital. Wen Renmo has never married a concubine!

After all the calculations, tonight is a good opportunity to do something real. As the sunset approached towards the west, the officials and their families came one after another, dressed up, it can be said that they have put in a lot of hard work.
