"It's just like that in the palace, so why should I care about it, Master?" As soon as Xiao Ningzi finished speaking, Nala said: "Xiao Ningzi, do you think this palace has really been defeated this time, and there is no possibility of a comeback?
?”
Xiao Ningzi lowered his eyes and said: "Master has survived so many storms and waves in the past without any danger. I believe that I can do it this time too."
Nala nodded, looked up from the pavilion, and had a panoramic view of the beautiful scenery in the imperial garden. Just like Xiao Ningzi said, it was a hundred purples and reds, so beautiful.
When he was about to look back, Nala saw two unexpected figures, and felt a little happy in his heart, and immediately said: "Xiao Ningzi, help me quickly go to the pavilion opposite. I see the sixth elder brother is there.
"
Xiao Ningzi quickly looked in the direction she pointed, and sure enough she saw Dai Jia and Hong Zhan in the pavilion, and immediately helped Nala over.
Dai Jia has always been very fond of Hongzhan and wanted to raise her several times, but was dissuaded by Ling Ruo, claiming that she was not suitable to raise Hongzhan. However, this did not stop Dai Jia from liking her and often went to Chengqian Palace to see Hongzhan.
Zhan, even if Hongzhan always has a bad face, he doesn't care about her.
Seeing the beautiful spring weather today, she told Ling Ruo and took Hongzhan for a walk in the imperial garden. Dai Jia took a piece of cut apple and handed it to Hongzhan and said, "Brother Six, come and have a bite."
.”
Hongzhan said impatiently: "I told you not to eat, but you are so annoying. I don't want to stay in the pavilion, I want to play outside."
Dai Jiashi was not angry either, and smiled and said: "Okay, I will go with you."
Hongzhan rolled his eyes and refused: "I don't want you to accompany me, I will leave by myself." The reason why he agreed to go out with Dai Jia was not because he really wanted to see the scenery in the imperial garden, but because he wanted to go out with him.
He just wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of Ling Ruo's control. During this period, Ling Ruo was very strict with him, especially not letting him go out of Chengqian Palace alone, which made him never see Nala again for so long.
Dai Jiashi shook her head and said, "Concubine Xi has told you not to let you wander around alone."
"Concubine Xi! Concubine Xi! Don't you bother mentioning her all the time?" Hongzhan shouted: "Anyway, I want to leave alone, and you are not allowed to follow me, otherwise I will ignore you in the future." After that, he took advantage of it.
Dai Jia didn't pay attention and ran out of the pavilion in a hurry.
Dai Jiashi shook her head and hurriedly followed her. She knew a lot about Hong Zhan's thoughts, so how could she let him go to Kunning Palace like this? If he really went, she didn't know how to explain it to Ling Ruo; but just now
After walking a few steps, she stopped, and her face became unsightly.
In order to be afraid of being chased by Dai Jia, Hongzhan lowered his head and ran. He didn't even notice anyone standing in front of him, so he bumped into him. Before he could cry out in pain, he heard the sound of longing in his ears.
"You kid, why are you running so fast? You're not afraid of getting hurt."
When Hongzhan raised his head and saw that it was indeed Nala standing in front of him, he hugged Nala and started crying, "Empress, I miss you so much!"
Nala squatted down with tears in her eyes, "The Queen misses you too. You are used to living in Chengqian Palace. How is Concubine Xi treating you?"
"No, no, no!" Hongzhan shouted, "Concubine Xi doesn't like everything about my son. If he does anything wrong, she will punish him by kneeling down and not allow him to eat."
"How could such a thing happen?" Nala stroked his face distressedly and said, "No wonder he looks a lot thinner. If that's the case, why didn't you tell your emperor?"
"I said so, but Huang Ama in turn accused me of being wrong, saying that Concubine Xi did not punish me wrong." Hongzhan sniffed aggrievedly, "Huang Eniang, in this palace, except for Eniang, you are the only one who sincerely
Treat me well, please help me tell Huang Ama to let me go back, I don’t want to stay any longer."
Nala said with tears in her eyes: "The Queen also wants to come with you, but...this is your Emperor's order, and there is nothing the Queen can do."
Hongzhan threw himself into Nala's arms and cried so sadly. At this time, Dai Jia had come to his senses and knelt down and said, "I, my concubine, see you, the empress, and may you be blessed."
After appeasing Hongzhan, Nala stood up and said, "You don't need to be polite when you become a concubine. I am here to take a walk. I didn't expect to meet you. What a coincidence."
Dai Jiashi forced a smile, stretched out his hand towards Hongzhan and said, "Brother Six, it's time for us to go back. Come here quickly."
"No!" Hongzhan pulled Nala's clothes tightly, and Dai Jia refused to let go no matter what he said. Seeing that his persuasion was ineffective, Dai Jia was about to ask the palace servants to come forward and force Hongzhan to come over. Nala
Shi said: "Since it is rare to see her, why should Concubine Cheng leave in a hurry?
Wouldn't it be better to sit down and talk. As for Hongzhan..." She stroked Hongzhan's cheek and said, "I will persuade him to follow you later, so that you don't have to use force in case he gets hurt.
Sixth Brother, I’m afraid it’s hard for you to explain yourself in front of Concubine Xi, how about that?”
Although Dai Jiashi was also worried about this, she still insisted: "But the imperial concubine does not like the empress and the sixth prince to meet in private, so..."
Before she could finish her words, Nala said: "How can we say we are meeting in private? Aren't you here? If you feel that I should not say anything to Hongzhan, you can take him away at any time. I
Never force it.”
It must be said that Nala's speaking skills were very good, and she captured Dai Jia's psychology in a few words, and Dai Jia finally agreed with her words.
After returning to the pavilion and sitting down, Hongzhan stayed close to Nala, clutching her clothes tightly, as if he was afraid that she would disappear at any time.
Nala was stroking Hong Zhan's head while talking to him. Dai Jia listened carefully and found that it was all trivial matters and nothing out of the ordinary.
After talking for a while, Nala suddenly said: "Hongzhan, Huang Eniang has a few words to say to Concubine Cheng. Can you go outside and play for a while?"
Hongzhan shook his head repeatedly, "No, I want to be with the emperor."
"Be obedient, otherwise the Queen will not like you." Hearing Nala's words, Hongzhan could only reluctantly let go of Nala's hand and walked out of the pavilion in a depressed manner.
He quickly asked the palace servants to follow him, and then said: "I wonder if your Majesty has anything to say to me."
Nala smiled slightly and said: "I can see that Concubine Cheng likes Sixth Brother very much."
"The sixth elder brother is smart and cute, how could I not like him? It's a pity that the sixth elder brother has a bad life. He suffered a lot of hardships and deceptions at a young age. But he doesn't know it yet, and he regards his enemies as benefactors." At this point.
, Dai Jiashi shook his head and sneered, with unspeakable sarcasm in his eyebrows.
"Is Cheng Fei talking about me?" Faced with Nala's words, Dai Jia did not answer directly, but said: "Yes or no, the empress knows it in her heart, so there is no need for me to say more."
