This month, Luo Changan lived in seclusion at his home in the Yongding Marquis Mansion.
Lively in front of people; lonely behind people.
There is no place in the world other than the king's land, and she has nowhere to escape.
Aunt Mei brings Jinhe and Jinfeng to accompany her every day. Luo Changan goes crazy with the child and laughs with the child. However, from the child's eyebrows and eyes that are similar to those of the emperor, one can always see the pair of eyes that make him love and hate him.
eye.
It was rumored outside that when Nalanjiao went to Yan, the emperor fell ill. He was very ill. He had been ill for more than a month and lost his beloved daughter. The emperor could hardly manage the government. At one time, he could not even send Nalanjiao off in person. It seemed that he was out of fear.
He lost his temper because of a woman in front of the envoy of Yan.
It is also said that the emperor ordered someone to pull down a piece of glazed tile on the top of the Jinluan Palace, so that Nalanjiao could be taken to Yan State to commemorate her. It was rumored that the missing tiles on the top of the Jinluan Palace would not be replaced in this life. From then on, there was a gap in his heart for Miss Nalanjiao.
of.
Every time Luo Changan thought about the missing glazed tile, he thought of his immortal palace lantern again.
I have an immortal palace lantern, but Jiaojiao is the missing glazed tile on the Golden Palace.
He has too many ways to express his love for women.
How many women can the emperor hold in his heart?
But it was discovered that Luo Changan had already left Changchun Palace.
Or, because they are too sad, they don’t notice it.
"Chang'an," Aunt Mei touched Luo Changan's hair, "it's been thirty-seven days since you left, why haven't you returned to the palace yet?"
"Aunt Mei, you are actually counting the days. You alone are counting the days..." Luo Changan smiled slightly, "My family has taken over Li Guo's business, and I can't live without it for a while. Cargo ships, various
I need to help my brother take care of everything."
"Can't you swallow the delicate thing? In this world, isn't that what women are like? They are already queens, and that's it. The rest should be invisible." Aunt Mei said earnestly, "If you don't see the palace, you can't."
The new year's talent show has started again here. Don't you care about the harem? The Queen Mother recently learned that you have returned to your parents' home. I naturally said that you haven't been home to miss your relatives for more than a year. Even though you were with her last year
Relying on each other for a year, but not returning to the palace for a long time, after all, she has some thoughts in her heart. No matter how good you are, it will be worn out sooner or later. "
"Aunt Mei, don't say any more. I left on my own and came back on my own. I made myself a joke." Luo Changan smiled bitterly, "Now that I'm out, I won't go back. Didn't you say,
Do you have to plan for yourself? Wouldn’t it be nice to take care of the baby by yourself?”
Aunt Mei added: "Today is the lord's birthday. The emperor is also here in the front hall, drinking with the lord. Why don't you go and see it?"
Luo Changan said nothing.
Aunt Mei asked again: "Is the emperor here for the Lord's wine? Since he has come down from the palace, why don't you go back if you take one step forward? Woman, why bother to embarrass yourself? How can the emperor's family be like this in the long history?
Where is the love you hoped for. The emperor is great. If you ask me, go back to the palace, control the harem, control the draft, and teach everyone to live their lives looking at your face. "
not good.
really not good.
She will be tortured crazy.
There was no way she could take on this year's draft. The task of selecting new women for him was too bitter for her.
Luo Changan smiled and pretended not to hear Aunt Mei's words. He picked up the embroidery in his hand and said, "Look at this embroidery. Last year, I sent many examples to the royal family of Li Kingdom. The other party fell in love with the random stitch embroidery. This year I sent it to the royal family."
My brother ordered a large quantity of goods. This random stitch embroidery is what I am good at. The stitching technique is outstanding, and the finished product is unique and layered. I made a pattern and the embroiderer behind me just compared the embroidery. You can take a look and I will
How's the embroidery going?"
"Produced by the Queen, the most exquisite products. I am willing to spend one point on the emperor, what else do I want?" Aunt Mei saw that her persuasion was useless, so she had no choice. How could the emperor give up his nepotism in the harem because of a woman?
The civil and military officials of the entire dynasty have offended everyone. It would be a luxury to have a relationship with the emperor.
The Queen Mother taught Jixiang from outside and came to ask, "The Queen Mother asked me to ask if the Queen and the Ministry of Rites have made preparations for the draft. The Queen Mother asked if the date has been set and when will the draft be started to fill the harem."
Luo Changan felt depressed and sighed. This month, she stopped all matters in the harem. She knew that irreconcilable conflicts would break out sooner or later, so there was no turning back. The matter was over, so be it.
Aunt Mei walked over and said softly: "I just went back to the Queen Mother and will return to her home in a few days. It has not been decided yet. It has been snowing heavily in recent days. The Queen Mother said that it will not be too late to decide after the weather is good."
Luo Changan sighed and drafted.
After hearing this, Ji Xiang just nodded, "It's true that the weather has been bad recently."
Liu Qin's voice sounded outside, "The emperor is drunk. Someone comes and clears out the upper room on the east side so that the emperor can rest and use it."
Ji Xiang whispered to Aunt Mei, "I'm afraid the emperor has still not recovered from the grief of losing Miss Nalan. He has been drinking every day for a month and seems to have been tortured. I have never seen the emperor be so heartbroken by a woman."
Aunt Mei quickly looked at Luo Chang'an, put her finger to her lips, and signaled Ji Xiang not to say any more, "Don't spread the word."
Ji Xiang understands that the queen may have left the palace for this reason. Missing her relatives and returning home may be a superficial reason. However, as a queen, she does not allow the emperor to have another woman. This is really unbecoming. The queen should tolerate it as much as possible. This is
The Empress Dowager must not know about this, otherwise there may be suspicions. The old man hopes that his family will be filled with children and grandchildren, and that the harem will be filled with happiness. However, the Queen is weak and has only given birth to two children. She may not be able to bear the burden and be unable to have more children in the future.
Luo Changan handed the embroidery in his hand to his servant, "Go and give the embroidery pattern to the embroiderer in Xiufang. With this embroidery, we must complete the case of Li Guo as scheduled."
"Yes, Master." The servant took the embroidery and went down.
"Mother," Di Jinhe said softly as he nestled in his mother's arms, "How about playing the blind man's game with He'er? Aunt Mei, uncle, and Aunt Keqing will all play together to see if the queen can catch us.
Well, you will win if you guess the name."
Luo Changan fondly touched Di Jinhe's bun, "Let's play this game again. We play it every day. Why don't we change it to something else? How about playing Idiom Solitaire?"
"Idiom Solitaire..." Di Jinhe shook his mother's hand, thinking that the game his mother was talking about was so boring, "No, He'er wants to play a blind man's touching game."
Luo Changan looked at his son's cute little face and said, "Okay, let's do it then. Shall I pretend to be blind today? No, He'er will catch us blindfolded today."
Di Jinhe pursed his lips and smiled, "No, no, I'm a baby. I'm walking blindfolded. What should I do if I fall? It's better for the mother to catch her later."
"You make the most sense." Luo Changan pinched the tip of his son's nose lovingly, "Come on, cover the queen's eyes."
As she spoke, she leaned down.
Di Jinhe covered Luo Changan's eyes with silk, and then said: "Uncle, Aunt Keqing, Aunt Mei, run quickly, mother is chasing us."
Luo Changan stood up and blindly chased in the direction of Di Jinhe's voice, "He'er, if the Godmother catches you, you will have to recite the poem lessons left by the Grand Tutor for the Queen Mother."
Di Jinhe smiled happily and led his mother to the east room, "Then you have to catch He'er first. Only after you catch He'er will you have to recite poems and songs. Come on, Mother, catch me."
Liu Qin, Qin Keqing, and Aunt Mei stopped when they came to the east room. They looked at each other and smiled. The children also hoped that the two could reunite soon. This group of subordinates was more anxious than the two.
Luo Changan followed Di Jinhe's voice and entered the east room. She couldn't see and didn't know where she was.
After his mother entered the east room, Di Jinhe covered his little mouth and didn't make any sound. He slipped out from his mother's side and went to play with his uncle. The uncle went to fight and learn his skills, and it was also fun to play with him.
good.
Luo Changan entered the room, groped with his hands, and said softly: "He'er, why are you silent? Is your mother blocking you in a corner?"
She probed back and forth in the air, only to feel a trace of cold cloth between her fingers. She grabbed it and said with a smile: "I caught it! Let me guess who I caught. If you guess it, you can
I'm going to be left to my own devices."
The man's eyes were burning and he stared at her deeply.
As Luo Changan spoke, he moved his hand up the sleeve. When he touched the man's cheek, he felt that the cheek had sharp edges and was slightly cool to the touch. Her heart sank. She suddenly realized that this person was not He'er. She
Panic-stricken, she hurriedly withdrew her hand, pulled down the silk from her eyes, and met the emperor's drunken eyes.
Her heart suddenly tightened, and she subconsciously took a step back.
Di Qian'ao had locked his eyes on her since she entered the house. Seeing that she seemed frightened and wanted to retreat, he stretched out his arm behind her waist and pulled her into his arms suddenly, "You guessed it was me.
