As soon as he stepped into the gate of Yanxi Palace, a black shadow rushed into Yonglian's arms, and the latter hugged him subconsciously. When he saw what was in his arms, Yonglian immediately grinned, "Happy,
It turned out to be you, you shocked me, are you so happy to see me?"
Kaixin nuzzled comfortably in Yonglian's arms. When Qi Kuan saw this, he smiled and said: "Xinxin has been listless these days and doesn't like to eat. I was thinking that I was sick before, but it turned out that I was thinking about my second elder brother.
Already."
Yong Lian smiled and said: "I have been feeding Kaixin before. Qi Kuan, go and see if there is anything Kaixin likes to eat in the small kitchen. Bring it over and I will feed it."
Qi Kuan looked at Xiayue, who smiled and said: "Do as the second elder brother said."
Not long after Qi Kuan left, Zhichun came over with some ointment. Yonglian put Xingxin on the ground, then took the ointment and said, "I'll apply it for my aunt."
As Yong Lian spoke, he picked some light green ointment and put it on his fingertips, then gently applied it on the broken skin of Xianyue. After wiping both hands, he said, "Auntie, how do you feel?
Yes, does it still hurt?"
Xianyue shook her head and said: "I'm fine. Yonglian, can you tell me now why you did what you did just now? Or do you mean that you don't want to see me at all?"
Yong Lian quickly shook his head and said: "That's not the case. I miss my aunt very much. I have always missed her. I look forward to seeing my aunt every day."
"If that's the case, why did you look like that just now?" Faced with Xianyue's question, Yonglian didn't speak. He only lowered his head and wring his fingers. Xianyue slowly held his hand and said softly: "Anything can be done with my aunt.
Say, there is nothing to worry about, unless...you no longer recognize me as your aunt."
"Auntie will always be Yonglian's aunt, and she will be for the rest of her life." Yonglian raised his head and said excitedly. After his words fell, Xianyue said: "In that case, tell auntie the truth."
Facing her gaze, Yong Lian finally nodded and said, "It's not that Yong Lian doesn't want to see my aunt, but that Huang Ama said that Yong Lian should not see my aunt for the time being."
Xianyue was startled, then said: "Why does your Majesty Ama give such an order?"
Yong Lian hesitated for a long time and then said: "That day I saw Huang Ama and Huang Aniang arguing for a few words, and then Huang Ama came out and gave these instructions."
"What are you arguing about?" Faced with Xianyue's inquiry, Yonglian turned away uncomfortably and said, "I...I didn't hear clearly. Auntie, please stop asking."
Seeing that he was hesitant in speaking, Xianyue knew that he must be hiding something from her, so she asked, "Did you hear clearly? Why didn't you tell my aunt?"
After all, Yong Lian was a child. When she said this, she immediately became at a loss. She twisted her clothes and said, "I...I didn't tell my aunt, but I was afraid that my aunt would be unhappy."
"You don't tell the truth to my aunt, which is what really makes her unhappy." Under Xianyue's repeated words, Yonglian finally said truthfully: "I heard Huang Ama said that he wanted to make my aunt a noble concubine, but the emperor didn't
I agreed, but I felt that my aunt had an ulterior motive for being nice to me, so we started arguing."
Hearing this, Xianyue finally understood why things did not develop as she expected. Hongli was obviously so guilty of herself, but he only resumed his concubine title instead of being registered as a noble concubine. The original reason was Mingyu.
Similarly, she also understood why Mingyu had such a cold attitude towards her after leaving the cold palace. It turned out to be this thought.
Seeing that Xianyue had not spoken a word, Yonglian said nervously: "Auntie, the emperor was just in a bad mood for a while, that's why she said that, please don't be angry with her, okay?"
Xianyue came back to her senses and said with a smile: "Auntie is not angry, no matter whether it is a concubine or a noble concubine, it is all the same. The most important thing is to wash away the grievances, don't you think?" After Yonglian nodded,
She added: "Since your Majesty Ama told you not to come to see me for the time being, why did you follow me out quietly again?"
Yong Lian said softly: "I came out after finishing my homework and happened to see my aunt leaving. I was really worried about her, so I followed her out quietly, thinking that I would just watch her from a distance for a while, but my aunt discovered her."
Xianyue gently scratched his nose and said, "You remembered your emperor's words, so you turned around and wanted to leave, right?"
Yong Lian smiled sheepishly and said, "Yeah, but I didn't expect that my aunt would chase me and fall down."
"If this were not the case, you wouldn't be able to sit here and talk to me." As he spoke, Qi Kuan brought up some fried fish, and Yong Lian took them in his hand and fed them to Happy himself. The latter changed his behavior from the previous few days.
He looked very interested and ate all the fried fish.
After Yonglian played with Kaixin for a while, he reluctantly said: "Auntie, I should go back, otherwise Queen Mother will be unhappy if she knows that I am here."
Xianyue nodded and said: "I understand, let Qi Kuan take you back, and leave quickly."
Yonghun turned around and walked a few steps, then suddenly ran back, threw herself into Xianyue's arms, and choked with sobs: "Auntie, I can't bear to leave you."
Xianyue almost burst into tears when he said what he said, and said quickly: "Silly boy, after a while, your empress no longer misunderstands you, you can come over. What is there to be reluctant to part with? Be good, don't do this anymore.
"
Yong Lian nodded, wiped away the tears that had fallen at some point, and left the Yanxi Palace with Qi Kuan. After they left, Zhi Chun frowned and said: "The Queen is so strange, why do you think that the master intends to provoke Er A?"
The relationship between brother and her? This is simply unreasonable."
Xianyue gently stroked her cheek and said in a cold voice: "Are there not enough unwarranted things in the palace? The queen has a soft ear. She will believe whatever others say. In addition, the second elder brother helped me speak like that before.
, naturally I believe it is true even more.”
Zhichun looked stern and said: "Master is saying that someone is deliberately provoking the Queen to fall out with you? Oh no, the Queen believes those words and will definitely be disadvantageous to the Master if she no longer trusts the Master."
"Trust?" Xianyue sneered: "She has always trusted only the weak. It was like this before, and it is like this now. If others look weaker than me, she will turn to trust others, just like Concubine Hui's miscarriage.
It’s the same as that time. I don’t care if I don’t want this kind of trust.”
"Having said that, the Emperor has always loved the Queen. This time, it was because of the Queen's words that the Emperor withdrew his intention to confer the imperial concubine. I don't know what will happen next time."
Xianyue narrowed her eyes slightly and said: "It is true that the emperor loves the queen, but this time the queen is so disobedient to the holy will, the emperor must be concerned, otherwise Yonglian would not have mentioned the word 'argument' just now.
After a pause, she continued: "Although the Queen is the head of the Six Palaces, it is the Emperor who truly controls the fate of this Palace. As long as I can firmly hold the Emperor's trust, the Queen and others cannot be harmed no matter what."
And this palace."
"I understand, but I feel it is a pity when I think that my master could not be registered as a noble concubine because of the queen."
Xianyue stood up and walked to the window. She opened the window and looked at the thin snowflakes outside. She chuckled and said, "There is nothing to be regretful about. The emperor's trust and pity are far more important than the false reputation. That is what makes me in the harem." The basis for gaining a firm foothold is also...the biggest gain from my trip to the Cold Palace."
