On the day of the Queen Mother's birthday, the sun was scorching warm and there was no cold wind.
Luo Changan arranged the celebration in the main garden of Kunning Palace. The Empress Dowager's fifty-second birthday coincided with the emperor's triumphant victory over the Chu Kingdom. The Empress Dowager's body was getting better and better, so Luo Changan organized the celebration to be a grand event.
Many princes, princes, gentlemen, and brothers and sisters from the Queen Mother’s family were also invited. The scene was very lively.
Everyone arrived early. The emperor was busy with government affairs, so he came to the main garden just a moment after the ceremony started. He met with the Queen Mother, said a few words to Emperor Jinhe, squeezed Emperor Jinfeng in the maid's arms, and then went.
The master was seated, and Luo Changan was taking care of everything. He didn't ask too much about anything. Apart from her, he didn't care about anything else in the garden.
Qiu Yan and other famous generals were sitting at the same table with Lao Qing, Kang Zhuang, Ye Ying and others.
Cangmiao was also at the table, sitting diagonally across from Qiuyan, very far away. He secretly hoped that she would not provoke and retaliate by flipping the table and feasting on him, otherwise the whole world would know that he tore off her clothes, which would be embarrassing.
I can't afford this person.
Qiu Yan was very happy and said: "Brothers, I am not bragging. I have a very high reputation among the concubines in the inner courtyard of the palace. When I came in, these female mistresses looked up to me. It seems that I am all-powerful and fighting on the battlefield.
The fame shocked them all! They must be eager to hear about my heroic deeds!"
"Really." Cangmiao was drinking tea and almost spit out, "Sister, what makes you famous is not your heroic deeds, but the emperor's scandal. You idiot."
The Queen Mother looked at Qiu Yan and thought that this child is a good child, but if such a general enters the harem, who can hold her down? The Ai family is not very satisfied. Ao'er's vision jumps too much. Chang'an, who has never been weak, can't help but
, suddenly transitioned to Qiu Yan carrying a big knife, maybe he was stimulated by something?
Concubine Gong and several concubines were whispering something.
"Who do you think the emperor will choose to drink with him today? It would be a great honor if he could climb the golden steps and go to the Dragon Throne to drink with the emperor. That person who has just passed away is unlikely to be chosen."
"It must be General Qiu Yan! There is no doubt about it. Didn't you see that General Qiu looks so arrogant now? He is obviously very proud! General Qiu must have regarded himself as the queen in his heart!"
"I can't wait to see the heartbroken expression on the one on the east side, and see if she can still have that self-possessed and dignified expression, as if she is looking down on everything!"
"Shh, she's here."
When some of the concubines saw Luo Changan walking over, they winked at each other, not daring to express their displeasure with the queen, who was very strict.
As the mistress of the harem, Luo Changan had just exchanged a few words in front of the concubines. When she came over, she saw the concubines whispering to each other, which was very inappropriate. She was not a generous person in matters of love.
, she had no choice but to offend the most romantic man in the world, and was forced to become more generous. She said displeasedly: "What kind of occasion is this today? How many distinguished guests are here, how can you be so polite in whispering to each other, please keep silent."
All the concubines hurriedly lowered their eyebrows and lowered their heads, saying in unison: "Yes, the Queen." Humph, just wait, I'll see you soon.
Di Qianao rested his chin and watched every move of his wife. She took care of the grand ceremony and various interpersonal relationships in an orderly manner. The concubines in the harem were also shocked by her majesty. She was already qualified to be the queen.
role. He wanted to know whether, besides being the queen, she was still his woman.
"Chang'an." Liu Qin came from the next table.
Hearing the sound, Luo Changan looked at Liu Qin with a smile, "Brother."
"Brother, I'll tell you a few words soon. In the inner courtyard of the imperial court, even if we are brothers and sisters, we won't be delayed any longer." Liu Qin said warmly, and after Luo Changan nodded, he continued: "Xiao Yu met a white-browed miracle doctor.
, it is said that it can cure all kinds of difficult and complicated diseases. Xiao Yu’s character is very charming. This white-browed miracle doctor has been a close friend of Xiao Yu for many years. Xiao Yu asked me to give you a message. If you are interested, he can arrange for the white-browed miracle doctor to be given to Bai Yu.
Ze takes a look at his throat, it’s a chance, if our brother is cured, he can speak again."
When Luo Changan heard Xiao Yu's name, she felt a little sorry in her heart. After Brother Xiao expressed his feelings to her that time, she agreed to consider it. Later, because she couldn't let go of the emperor and the emperor's reunion, she and Brother Xiao ended things.
, she didn’t expect that Brother Xiao would still take care of her.
She subconsciously glanced at the emperor on the dragon chair and saw him talking to his ministers. She was worried about accepting Xiao Yu's favor. The emperor was jealous. She was really worried about bringing undue disaster to the innocent Xiao Yu. She didn't have the courage.
He Di Qianao came against her will and was really frightened. He became cruel and could ignore her for a year. It was difficult for her to get rid of the suffocating feeling. She said softly: "Let's talk about it later. I found the opportunity."
, I’ll tell you now, let’s see what his opinion is.”
"Okay." Liu Qin nodded, casually brushed his hair with his hand, and a scalded blister was exposed on the back of his hand, and then he started coughing seriously.
"What's wrong with this hand?" Luo Changan saw that the back of his brother's hand was burned and he was coughing. He was concerned and patted Liu Qin's back twice. "Why are you still coughing?"
"It's okay, I accidentally got scalded by hot water. I've caught a cold and coughed in the past two days." After being patted twice by Luo Changan, Liu Qin suddenly felt as if his heart was pinched hard, and the pain was unbearable.
He groaned and clutched his clothes.
"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Luo Changan was too worried, fearing that something might happen to his brother, so he quickly held his arm, "Teach the imperial doctor to take a look at you. You are alone, and no one knows how to take care of you. I'm very worried."
care."
Di Qianao was talking to the courtiers when suddenly he felt a sharp pain in his heart and his lips turned white. His eyes fell on Luo Changan and he saw that she was getting close to Liu Qin, and he couldn't help but feel jealous.
Seeing this, Cangmiao rushed over and took Liu Qin from Luo Changan's hand, "Leave him to me, and I promise that he will be fine in a moment. Queen, please go and do your own thing, so as not to cause any trouble."
Luo Changan nodded and said softly: "Isn't he suffering from heart disease? I see that his heart hurts."
Cangmiao's heart was pounding with fear. It's not just your brother who's heart is hurting. It's equally painful for your man to be bitten by the backlash. This 'lock' is too unspeakable. Only the emperor can do such a thing of locking his wife. "I'll show it to your brother."
Look. Don’t worry.”
"Queen," Di Qian'ao's slender hand gently placed on his heart. As Luo Changan and Liu Qin distanced themselves, the pain slowly receded. His cold voice was not loud, but it made the whole place fall silent.
, everyone's eyes also fell on the queen who was named by the emperor, and they heard him say in a deep voice: "Why don't you come and sit on the same chair with me, and drink in front of the emperor?"
Luo Changan was slightly startled. With Qiuyan here, she didn't expect that he would let her accompany him. She leaned down slightly and said, "Yes."
Qiu Yan: Oh yo yo, the emperor and empress are so loving!
As Luo Changan slowly walked up the golden steps, the concubines were so surprised that they lost the ability to control their expressions.
How could the emperor choose to be by his side the flower of tomorrow?!
Wasn’t the Queen frozen by the Emperor for a year and had completely fallen out of favor a long time ago?! Wasn’t the Emperor so disgusted that he was too lazy to even pick up the Queen’s brand?!
Luo Changan came to Di Qianao. He sat in the middle of the big chair. He stared at her quietly. Seeing that there was no extra seat next to him, she whispered: "I ordered someone to bring a seat."
, Your Majesty, I will serve you some wine later."
"There's no need to move the seats." Di Qian'ao said softly.
Luo Changan frowned, so you sit and I stand, you drink and I watch. Is this what you mean?
Di Qian'ao stretched out his arm and clamped her waist violently, making her sit on his lap. He said softly: "This is your seat."
Luo Changan's back was glazed over by everyone's gaze. She was afraid of causing confusion, so she restrained herself and sat on his lap, saying with red cheeks, "Emperor, this is not good, there are so many people."
"No one dares to look at me, I can do whatever I want."
Luo Changan breathed out, and his heart started to beat wildly. His lips were a little white. Just now I saw him covering his heart. Did he also have heart pain? It happened to be similar to my brother's symptoms.
"The Queen's golden steps are shaking so much that I feel uncomfortable." Di Qianao supported his chin and kissed her lips and said: "I want to take you to the Queen Mother's bedroom to be alone for a while. Qian'er and Concubine have tried new tricks and want to have sex with the Queen.
Try it."
Luo Changan's mouth suddenly hurt. Since she slept with Concubine Ji every day, why did she still look so hungry and thirsty at this moment? She was so angry that she couldn't breathe, "Emperor, the hall is full of guests. It is the Queen Mother's birthday. You and I can't leave in the middle of the meeting."
good."
"There are many people here." Di Qianao's thin lips slightly curved, "No one will notice you and I leaving the table."
Haiyin thought to himself: Yes, yes, the emperor and empress left the table together, it was not obvious at all, no one would notice it! Go quickly, go quickly!
Luo Changan was controlled by him, and his eyes turned red for no reason, "Okay, Emperor, don't make things difficult for me."
Di Qianao tightened her waist a little more, causing her whole body to collapse. He wanted to break her calmness, but when her eyes turned red, he finally loosened her waist, and then Luo Luo
Chang'an sat down next to him.
It is true that no one in the hall dared to look at the dragon chair, but who knew if he saw anything in his peripheral vision.
The concubines were so jealous that the emperor allowed the queen, who had been out of favor for a long time, to sit on his lap openly!!!
The Queen Mother thought that Ao'er had not returned for a year, so she could not help but get closer to the queen. She could just turn a blind eye. Ao'er looked like he was seeking death and survival because of Chang'an. The Ai family was afraid. Let him do whatever he wanted, he would be alive.
good.
At this time, the troupe was already in place, the warm-up drums were beating, and the opera was about to begin.
Aunt Mei walked to Luo Changan's side in a panic, "Empress, the shadow guard came to report just now, saying that Concubine Gong secretly had the script changed, and the first play was the Huangmei opera consort scene that the Queen Mother hated.
If this play is sung, I'm afraid the Queen Mother Fengyan will be furious."
