Di Qian proudly nodded, "I know your name, but I just... made a slip of the tongue."
Haiyin thought to herself, tell me, what is her name? Just tell me...
Song Ning nodded, but did not continue to naively ask whether the emperor knew her name. The emperor was busy with many things, and the harem was full, so it was normal not to remember her name, so she responded softly: "Yeah. It's okay."
Haiyin heard the commotion outside and went to take a look. Then he came back into the house and whispered: "The doctor who treated Governor Shen's sister-in-law is back and replied to your words."
When Di Qianao heard the words "Governor's roommate", he raised his eyebrows slightly and said to Song Ning: "Go back to the bedroom and wait for me. There is something going on in the study. Song...Ling?"
Haiyin: Pfft... Stop talking, emperor. The more you talk, the more outrageous it becomes!
"Yes. My concubine, please excuse me." Song Ning responded, thinking, at least the pronunciation of calling me by my name is a little closer this time. The emperor's love for me... is strange. He seems to be careless. I don't know why he left. There was no way, so she leaned down and went down.
Haiyin bowed and said to the emperor: "You think this Shen Qingchuan is not simple. Could Shen Changfeng be the... woman he assigned to you? I think you are somewhat... different towards this woman. It shows that she has something... Capable. He looks weak, but he has the courage to save the imperial concubine Song 'Ning'!!"
"There are few local officials in the former Shu Kingdom that I am not on my guard against." Emperor Qianao heard Haiyin bite the word "Ning" very hard, and knew that Haiyin reminded him of saying the wrong name twice in a row, so he didn't do much. Word.
"How do you plan to deal with Shen Qingchuan?" Haiyin asked.
Di Qian'ao rubbed his forehead and said: "Old rule, keep it first and try his abilities. Many murder cases of merchant ships being robbed in the sea have alarmed everyone. Let's teach Governor Shen to investigate."
Haiyin said: "Yes."
Di Qianao resumed the conversation and said, "What is the name of Governor Shen's roommate? I can't remember her name."
Haiyin really couldn't remember the name of that person's roommate. After all, they just met once, so he said: "Shen Qingfeng?"
"Shen Changfeng." Di Qianao frowned. He was dissatisfied that Haiyin had called the person by the wrong name, "I have had people stare at her since she came to Jiuxi Palace, but there is nothing out of the ordinary. Teach the imperial doctor Come in and reply. If there is something fishy about her body, the imperial doctor will know after seeing it. Now these ministers are getting more and more considerate in offering women, wearing men's clothes, wearing masks, and coming up with new ideas. The officials in the North are interested in I know the basics, so I don’t dare to come like this. To the south, it’s too much!”
Haiyin thought to himself, the original name was Shen Changfeng, didn't the emperor remember it? He couldn't remember the name of the new favorite concubine in Changchun Palace, but he remembered the name of a girl he met once. He couldn't understand the emperor's thoughts, "I can't guarantee it." What kind of bad medicine was put on this person, and you... messed up the emperor's heart. Even the imperial concubine can't stabilize you, and calling the imperial concubine by the wrong name was also caused by the drug. This is leading you to take off your mask, Take off her men's clothes. Who cares?"
Di Qianao: "...Hmm."
Haiyin was startled, um...what do you mean? This tone is...unusual?
The imperial doctor entered the room and hurriedly saluted and said: "Your Majesty, I have sent you a message."
Di Qianao rubbed his forehead and said, "No need to be polite, just tell me. Is there something wrong with Miss Shen? What kind of medicine was put into her body? After she got close, I felt that there were many things wrong with her."
The imperial doctor said: "Oh, Shen Changfeng does not have any drugs that can charm the monarch in his body. It's just... quite normal."
Di Qianao: "......?"
"..." Haiyin immediately scolded the imperial doctor: "Quick doctor! You must not have looked carefully. The emperor has been feeling unwell since he came back from close contact with the woman. How could the woman be so strong?" Normal, are you saying that the emperor is not normal...? He might just look at her and feel uncomfortable when he comes back..."
Saying that, Hai Yin was stunned. The emperor has not been like this for a long time, not since the death of the late queen! There is definitely something wrong with Shen Changfeng!!! Maybe he was sent by some people with evil intentions. Careful work!
The imperial doctor plopped down and knelt on the ground, "I checked your pulse carefully. Miss Shen is really fine. Except for the deep wound on her wrist, she said she couldn't let me handle the wounds on her body, so she reluctantly only bandaged her wrist." On the contrary, I think she is easy to get along with and is a good person."
Di Qianao frowned slightly, and the blood stains on Miss Shen's body once again flashed through his mind, and he became even more... anxious, "Go down."
He leaned on the back of the chair and exposed his wrist. Since his old friend died, a piece of white silk was wrapped around his wrist to cover the name of his late wife engraved in cinnabar. He rubbed the white silk because he felt sorry for Miss Shen. The throb caused by this made me feel deeply guilty towards my old friend, just like having an affair and betraying my deceased wife.

Luo Changan held the jade pendant in the house and recalled the scene of Aunt Mei's tragic death, and couldn't help but burst into tears.
In her mind, she could not help but recall the emperor's protection and love for the new imperial concubine in the hunting ground. She looked at the royal bow that was erected by the wall and felt uncomfortable in her heart.
There was lightning and thunder outside the window, and the thunder and lightning seemed to split the sky.
Luo Changan sat up. Being alone in such a windy and rainy weather added to the feeling of loneliness and fear.
She couldn't sleep anymore, so she sat up and huddled beside the bed, leaning on the edge of the bed with her knees crossed, quietly waiting for the thunder and lightning to stop, thinking about Jinhe Jinfeng, Liu Qin, Baize, and Mei from time to time in her mind. Auntie, I feel uncomfortable again just thinking about it.
Unexpectedly, with a bang, the window was blown open by the wind and rain, and the rain rushed into the house. She went to close the window with bare feet, but the door was blown open again. She moved over to close the door again, and closed it like this It's quite interesting to close the windows for a night, it's better than sitting around and feeling sad.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw someone walking in the yard. He couldn't see clearly in the night. When a flash of lightning passed, Luo Changan saw clearly. It turned out to be Haiyin holding an umbrella and accompanying the emperor.
When the people came near, Di Qianao came to the corridor, and saw that he had a long and tall body, and his handsome cheeks had a cold look in the night. Haiyin brushed the wind and rain off his body, and his robe was wet. There was some rain on his brows and cheeks. He looked at the courtyard with distant eyes. Although there was only a door between him and Luo Changan, he didn't seem to see her.
Luo Changan could neither close the door nor open the door to go out. A normal person would hide eight hundred miles away from the emperor when he saw him.
Haiyin cleared her throat and said, "Excuse me, is Shen Qingchuan here?"
Haiyin thought that of course he was not here. The ministers were all attending the banquet in the front hall. The banquet was arranged by the emperor himself. The emperor really came to the wrong place. If he wanted to see Shen Qingchuan, he should go to the banquet instead of the side room. Find it here, and you can send the minister to the study to ask questions, you don't have to look for it in person! It's too much trouble!
When Luo Changan saw the temporary brother who came to her, he opened the door a little, put on the short boots at the door, and whispered at the door: "In reply to your words, my brother went to the front hall for a banquet."
When Di Qian'ao heard her rough voice, he cast his eyes on her and said softly: "Since your brother is not here, I won't stay any longer. It's just that... the wind and rain are coming violently, making it inconvenient to travel."
Luo Chang'an didn't say anything. You can do whatever you want with your Jiuxi Palace and your corridor. You can go as far as you like.
Haiyin said hurriedly: "Emperor, please go inside to rest, and wait until the wind and rain subside before you go anywhere else."
"Well... there is no other way." Di Qianao said softly, his eyes falling on Luo Changan's door frame, "The only choice is to go inside and sit for a while."
Luo Changan: "..." Which room should I enter? My room? No, right...
