Chapter 20 Laughing with Concubines

The thirteenth mother didn't see Murong Haoxuan coming at four o'clock in the afternoon, and lay listlessly on the table. When did her lady have such patience? If she doesn't eat any more, she will be hungry here.

Thirteen Niang looked at the forsythia with a smile and couldn't help but say, "Forsythia, I told you that no matter what, this palace is not as good as Chu Fu. You can do whatever you want. Since the emperor has said, you have to wait until night, unless someone informs you, you know? Lian Jian flattened his mouth and turned his head carelessly. Thirteen Niang couldn't help laughing, looked at Lian Jian and said, "Well, don't wait. We are none of his. Let's go eat!" With that, he ordered the maids in the palace to bring their lunch.

The maid answered and left, but Xiao Yingzi appeared at this time: "Miss Yaner, you can eat first!" The emperor has something to do at noon today, so he won't come. With a friendly smile, he looked at the thirteenth lady with a cold face.

"Go back and tell your emperor that if this is his hospitality, don't tell me anything about waiting for him to eat in the future. I have no obligation to wait for him!" After saying that, he watched the maid enter and brought the dishes to the table. She smiled and said, "Would you like to use it here?"

Xiao Yingzi hurriedly bowed and said, "Miss Yaner, no matter what, after all, this palace is no better than outside the palace. It's better to be careful about everything."

"Thank you for reminding me, but I'm just a guest here, but I've been here for three or five days. Naturally, I don't have to worry about these, don't you think?" She stared at Xiao Yingzi, and she naturally knew that Xiao Yingzi had just said this because of what happened between her and Yuanfei this morning.

"Then Yan'er girl, please use it slowly. The miscellaneous family has left." After saying that, Xiao Yingzi took a look at the light woman in front of him. He always felt that this woman was very much like a person, but he just searched all the memories and couldn't find it after all.

Thirteen Niang leaned against the beautiful couch by the window, and the forsythia put the prepared silk around her waist, allowing her to close her eyes and take a nap. The scenery here is really good. Although the weather is sunny, the sun just can't shine into the house. There is a rustling sound from the bamboo forest outside when the breeze blows. Now there are cicadas, and there is a cool comfort. Looking at the thirteen women with her eyes closed, she did not disturb and took a stool and sat in the shadow of the bamboo forest outside.

A sharp voice sounded on this quiet summer afternoon, disturbing a pastoral environment: "I'm coming with the concubine~~" The long tail dragged. Thirteenth Niang didn't expect that the first person to come to her place was Hefei. She thought it would be Yang Siyuan's.

She stood up, straightened her wrinkled clothes, and smiled at herself. She is not the queen here now, so why think about this dress? He inserted the jasper hairpin on his head again and went out of the palace door and went straight to meet him.

Liu Fei has changed a suit, but it is still white in the morning, with a high waist under her chest and two white silk hanging in front of her, against the hem of her fat clothes. There is not too much decoration on her head. Maybe it's because of pregnancy! Walking on the road, she lifted the veil covering the outside, and it was a fairy coming down to the earth in a trance.

Thirteen Niang knows that the women in this palace are all scheming. Even such gentle people can't be underestimated. Naturally, there are no friends in this harem.

She bent down to salute and welcomed her into the palace with a smile. He ordered the maid in the palace to bring her a beauty and spread a thick cushion on it. Then she gave her over and said with a smile, "How can Concubine have time to come to the people?"

"I heard that the emperor invited a distinguished guest, and the palace specially came to see if the girl was used to it in this palace. Don't you want to disturb the girl's rest?" The concubine held her waist and sat down on the beauty and looked at the thirteenth mother with a smile.

Thirteen Niang smiled, poured water on the teacup on the table, tried it with a silver needle, and handed it to her with both hands: "Mother, please use tea. I'm fine here. Thank you for your concern." She lowered her eyebrows and looked very well-behaved.

and the concubine looked at her movements carefully. She didn't expect that such a woman could think of testing the water with a silver needle, so that no matter what happened, it had nothing to do with her. What a beautiful girl! She also smiled, twisted her orchid finger, ordered the maid beside her to lift out a tray, and lifted the big red silk cloth on it. It turned out to be a pair of emerald bracelets. Such bracelets were not unusual. Surprisingly, there was a dragon and a phoenix in the bracelet, playing with each other. Thirteen Niang only took a look and knew that this thing must have been given to her by Murong Haoxuan, and immediately refused: "Mother, Yaner, I'm just a daughter of the people. I can't stand such a big gift. This time, I went to the Empress's palace to visit you first, but I didn't expect to let the Empress come here with a heavy body. This is already Yan'er's sin. How can I still ask for the Empress's gift? With that, he asked Lianqi to give things to the concubine's maid.

Hefei looked at the thirteenth mother with a smile: "The girl is really smart. No wonder she can make the emperor like her so much. This thing was indeed given by the emperor. At that time, I felt that only people like girls could deserve these bracelets, so I transferred it to you. If you don't want it, I will be angry!" He pretended to be angry.

"In that case, I will accept it, but I also have something for you." With that, she ordered forteng to bring what she brought when she entered the palace. When the forsythia opens, there lies a golden seal lying inside. There is nothing strange about this golden seal. The shape of the carving is a peacock. The peacock's eyes are embedded with sapphires embedded in emeralds, and the tail is inlaid with three-color gemstones in the same way, red, blue and green. A hollowed-out umbrella-shaped thing hangs in the mouth of the peacock, decorated with tassels made of various gemstones, and the bottom is a red crescent-shaped gemstone. Madam, although this thing is not a rare thing, this is Jiang Mengyun's handmade work, which is carefully polished and inlaid by himself. Moreover, this style has a name called Guose Tianxiang. Please laugh with the concubine. With that, he asked Forte to hand the things to the maid close to the concubine.

Hefei took it over with a smile and watched it carefully: "I like it very much. Thank you, Miss Yaner." When she heard that she called herself Yan'er, she called her. Feiran, collect things well. Miss Yaner, I won't bother you. Have a good rest!" After saying that, the beauty stood up laboriously and left here with a group of people.

Thirteenth Lady respectfully sent her to the gate of the palace, looked at her leaving figure, with a smile on the corners of her mouth.

She thought that Yang Siyuan would definitely come to Yong'an Palace to find trouble for her, but Yang Siyuan did not come until she was in charge of the lamp. Instead, Xiao Yingzi came to send a message: "Miss Yan'er, the emperor went to the concubine's place. I'm afraid that the concubine's child is not safe, so she can't come over today and let the miscellaneous family tell the girl."

Thirteen Niang stood up in surprise and looked at Xiao Yingzi: "What are you talking about? Are you afraid that the child of the concubine is not guaranteed? The sound suddenly increased by octave. How come? She was still fine when she left here. If Murong Haoxuan investigated, even if she made it clear, others might not believe it. At that time, even if she had ten heads, it was not enough for Murong Haoxuan to cut! No, her big revenge has not been revenged. How can she die like this?

"Please tell the emperor that I want to see him! Because when it was not until today, Hefei came to me. She must explain clearly to Murong Haoxuan, otherwise, when all the evidence points to her, she will be indefensible.

"Okay, girl, please wait a moment!" Xiao Yingzi also saw the urgency of the matter and said solemnly.

By the time the thirteenth mother wanted to speak again, his people had disappeared at the gate of the palace. Forthia, change my clothes. I'm going to find Murong Haoxuan in person!" She can't wait. Although she is worthy of this matter, she is afraid that what happened eight years ago will happen again. She is already afraid.

Dressed neatly, she followed Xiao Yingzi's footsteps. In fact, she can find the way to this palace with her eyes closed and doesn't need others to lead the way at all, but she still keeps following Xiao Yingzi's footsteps. She doesn't want to be suspicious.

When she saw Murong Haoxuan, she was still beside Concubine. At this time, Concubine had fallen asleep. From her face, it could be seen that she had lost the child. The maid in the palace was still busy. Murong Haoxuan saw her enter the door and motioned her. They walked out of the palace side by side.

"It's not me." Straight to the point, only say these three words. She looked at him earnestly, with eagerness on her face.

"I know." It was also three words, with a faint smile on her face. She looked at the thirteen women who was eager to defend, and then said, "I'm sorry, Yaner." Saying these three words really surprised Thirteen Niang. She didn't expect that Murong Haoxuan would say sorry to her.

Looking at her shocked eyes, he still smiled warmly: "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have brought you into the palace." Eight years ago, he didn't investigate secretly, but everything he found pointed directly at the Shangguan expedition. What could he do? And at that time, the power was still in the hands of the Empress Dowager. She didn't like the Shangguan family and was eager to convict him and forced him to kill their family. This happened again today. He didn't want her to be implicated. He didn't know why, but he just wanted to tell her these three words.

"Always give an explanation to others, not to mention General Zuo's daughter." Thirteen Niang whispered.

"You don't have to worry about this. I have a way." Murong Haoxuan looked at her. Under the starlight, his eyes were shining, and the lights on both sides of the bluestone road were hard, and the thirteenth mother shook for a moment. It seems that the former teenager stood under the peach tree again, gently brushed the peach blossoms on her body, and said to her with a smile, "How about being my wife?"

Thirteen Niang left quickly, ignoring the shouts of Murong Haoxuan behind her. She can no longer afford such affection. When she needed him most, he was not with her. Now he is just facing others!

Yuanfei stood in the dim light and looked at them, smiling coldly. This is the best time. She actually knows so many things. If you don't get rid of her now, when will she wait? I believe that with the strength of her grandfather and her father, she can definitely be eradicated.

Everything will eventually be buried in the ground, and no one knows, including five years ago, including now.

She looked at the back of Thirteen Niang and smiled gloomyly.
