This Lantern Festival banquet was unforgettable for everyone who participated. It was already past midnight when everyone went back, and they almost spent the night in the palace.

Luo Xuanran was escorted back to Weiyang Palace by Wen Zhiyan. Luo Xuanran seemed to have aged ten years at this moment. She held Wen Zhiyan's hand tightly, as if Wen Zhiyan was her only support.

"Queen Mother, you must cheer up and never let yourself down."

"I lost this game."

"Queen Mother, why did you form an alliance with Su Xiran?" Wen Zhiyan was not a fool. He could see that it was definitely not a simple matter for Su Xiran and Shuhan to appear in the back hall at that time. In addition, Wen Zhiyuan was

I also went to the apse. Apparently the queen didn't tell her about this scene.

"I just wanted to help Su Xiran. I didn't expect Su Xiran to regret it temporarily, but I am even more curious about what happened at that time."

Wen Zhiyan told the queen what Su Xiran said, and the queen shook her head: "This is absolutely impossible. Why did Su Xiran change his story temporarily?"

"Something must have happened that we didn't know about at that time, but it doesn't make any sense to talk about it now. The book is useless. In the past three months, Queen Mother, you must abide by your duties and never cause any trouble again.

"

"If Shuhan wakes up..."

Wen Zhiyan interrupted her: "Mother, even if Shuhan wakes up, it won't make any sense. Su Xiran has already said those words, and the blame lies with Shuhan. How can you expect Shuhan to turn things around?

?”

Su Xiran was smart today in not saying it was the queen's fault, but letting Wen Xize think for himself. Sure enough, it was Shuhan's fault, and the queen didn't know about it. But if the queen hadn't brought it up, it wouldn't have happened. This is a dead end.

.

"It's such a pity Shuhan." Wen Zhiyan also understood what Luo Xuanran meant. Shuhan's martial arts was pretty good. It was left to Luo Xuanran by the Luo family. Basically, none of the palace maids knew martial arts, so Luo Xuanran

I didn't expect that my life-saving charm would be broken in this matter.

"However, the mother must not mention the Luo family's affairs again in the future." Wen Zhiyan warned, "From now on, there is no hope for the Luo family to return to the court. This is probably what the father wants to see."

"I don't know if I will ever see my father and mother again in this life." Luo Xuanran rarely showed a soft expression. Wen Zhiyan knew that Luo Xuanran really missed his grandpa and grandma, but the Luo family obviously no longer

There is hope of coming back.

"I have recorded this account." Wen Zhiyan knew that Luo Xuanran was lucky to be able to escape today. At least he was only banned for three months, and there would be a chance for a comeback in the future.

Luo Xuanran sighed: "During this period, everything is really not going well. I originally wanted to offer plum blossoms, but unfortunately the emperor didn't like it."

"Mother, you should have a good rest these three months and don't think about those things. You can also avoid this year's spring hunting. My son always feels that this year's spring hunting will not go well. What happened during this period is really

It’s too much.”

Wen Zhiyan also knew that the queen was mentally and physically exhausted some time ago. Rather than being used as a living target, it might not be a bad thing to take advantage of this loss to recharge her batteries. As long as the Emperor of Chu did not talk about this matter to death, then there would be

room for change.

Because of the Luo family's affairs, Luo Xuanran felt very sad and did not even have the energy to thoroughly investigate Shuhan's affairs.

Wen Zhiyan sent Luo Xuanran back to Weiyang Palace and told Tingqin, Qiyuan and Mo Hua to take good care of Luo Xuanran. As soon as he stepped out of Weiyang Palace, he saw that the gate of Weiyang Palace was sealed. Luo Xuanran was

They can't come out again.

Wen Zhiyan blamed Luo Xuanran for being too impulsive, but seeing Luo Xuanran's sad look, he suddenly didn't want to mention it anymore. In fact, no matter what Luo Xuanran's character was, at least she was sincere to her son.

I love you so much, so I hope that the Luo family will return to the capital. But now, in order to protect yourself and the Luo family, you have to make a promise to let the Luo family guard the border forever, which is simply the biggest blow to Luo Xuanran.

Wen Zhiyan took one last look at the closed Weiyang Palace, and finally turned around and left. The Queen Mother temporarily stopped, but he still had to move forward. Three months later, when the gate of Weiyang Palace reopened

When he opened it, he expected to see a new Luo Xuanran!

Wen Xize did not go to any of the concubines after the dinner. He was very depressed on the way back and only took Li Sheng around for a walk.

Li Sheng followed Wen Xize cautiously as he walked in the quiet imperial garden, not daring to say a word. He could tell that Wen Xize was in a bad mood. After all, the night banquet made Wen Xize upset. For him, after so many

It's really shameful to expose the affairs of the harem in front of people.

Wen Xize sighed in his heart, why couldn't he worry less about the harem?

But at this moment, Wen Xize forgot that the current situation in the former harem was caused by him and was what he wanted.

At this moment, Wen Xize saw a familiar figure in front of him. In this world, it was Yuan Dai folding red plums in the imperial garden.

Wen Xize walked over: "Wan Baolin, it's so late, why are you still here?"

When Yuan Dai heard the voice behind her, she was so frightened that she dropped the red plum branch in her hand. When she turned around and saw that it was Wen Xize, she immediately saluted: "Concubine, please see the emperor."

"Excuse me. I saw you some time ago and you were not as thin as you are now. How long has it been?" Wen Xize asked, "Why are you here so late?"

"Back to the Emperor, I have some insomnia tonight. I couldn't fall asleep for a long time. I was thinking that the red plums in the imperial garden were about to fall. It would be better to go out and pick some red plums. Maybe it would be easier to fall asleep with the fragrance of plum blossoms." Yuan Dai answered in a very satisfactory manner.

.

Wen Xize found that he had said a few words to Yuan Dai, and the annoyance in his heart was somewhat dissipated: "I remember that you didn't like flowers before."

"The emperor has been working hard all day, so he probably remembered it wrong. It's not that I don't like flowers, it's just that I think I'm not a flower. The flowers are so beautiful when they bloom, but the flowering period is still too short after all. Who knows whether they will bloom the next year or not?"

What about the original flowers from last year? In fact, in the eyes of flower appreciators, it doesn’t matter whether these flowers are the same flowers as last year, what’s important is that they are beautiful.”

Wen Xize stretched out his hand to Yuan Dai: "Yuan Dai, I know what you are worried about. There are many women in the harem, and I can only see a few of them. But now that I have seen it, I will not forget it."

Yuan Dai stared at Wen Xize blankly, and finally slowly placed her hand on Wen Xize's palm. Wen Xize held her hand and walked out.

Li Sheng was about to follow when Wen Xize said, "Li Sheng, go pick some red plums so that you can fall asleep with the fragrance of them at night."

Li Sheng looked at the scene of Wen Xize and Yuan Dai walking forward hand in hand, thinking in his heart that Wan Baolin might be in favor again.

But there is nothing strange. The women in this harem are always fighting, and there will never be a day when they stop. Today Wen Xize is holding Yuan Dai's hand, but tomorrow it may be another woman's hand...

After Wen Zhiyuan was escorted back to the East Palace by Han Feng, he rested for a long time before the power of the medicine gradually dissipated. After he recovered, he let Han Feng leave first and stayed alone in the dormitory.

At this moment, he heard the sound of the window. He immediately stood aside vigilantly and drew his sword.

Sure enough, someone climbed in from the window. As soon as he came in, Wen Zhiyuan drew his sword and stabbed the person. The person dodged to the side: "It's me!"

Hearing the sound, Wen Zhiyuan immediately sheathed his sword and a joyful expression appeared on his face: "Why are you here at this time?"

"You're the one who scared me to death. As soon as I came in, I saw a sword stabbing me. But looking at you now, the medicine must have worn off, right?" Lian Zhi said as he lifted up his cloak.

The broad hat exposed his face.

Wen Zhiyuan put the sword back into its sheath: "The medicine has dissipated, but why didn't you notify me in advance that you were coming? I thought it was an assassin. I didn't hurt you just now, right?"

Lian Zhi rolled her eyes at him: "I just don't trust you, so I secretly came here to check on you in the middle of the night. If I informed you in advance, does it still count as secretly coming here?"

Wen Zhiyuan joked: "I didn't expect you to be so anxious about my situation. You can come over tomorrow. Why are you so anxious just now? Also, when you were in the back hall of Hongzheng Hall, you were
