"That's natural."

Speaking of Shangguan Cheng, Zhai Hanjing naturally felt comfortable, "It's Cheng'er who has such luck. There were so many pregnancies in the harem this year, but none of them could give birth to a prince."

"It's my master who has deep blessings." Jin Ru said with a smile.

Zhai Hanjing's anger finally subsided a little. Jin Ru watched her words and found that she was in a good mood, so she suggested again: "Master, are there any missing gifts in the gifts we prepared? Do you want to add another box?"

"Oh, I have always been diligent and thrifty. I don't have much money in my hands. I am not as wealthy as the noble concubine. Those gifts are enough." Zhai Hanjing waved his hand.

Jin Ru sighed silently, forget it, anyway, in the eyes of the emperor, Kunning Palace has always been thrifty and self-sufficient. After Zhai Hanjing entered the palace, he consciously reduced the queen's share by half, and it did not recover even after pregnancy, so why not?

A few words of praise from the Emperor.

Just be simple and thin.

But having said that, Shangguan Lie frowned immediately when he saw the gift list from Kunning Palace.

In particular, Lin Qingluan seemed to have accidentally put all the gift lists aside. In order, the ones placed at the top were the gifts from the two Jieyu from Jianzhang Palace.

The queen's gift is not half as good as Jieyu's.

Shangguan Lie snorted heavily, and Lin Qingluan seemed to have realized what he was looking at. He quickly walked over to clean it up and said with a smile: "I was so busy today that I didn't even collect the gift list."

"On your birthday, just leave these things to the people below." Although Shangguan Lie said this, his tone was not very good.

Lin Qingluan smiled and said: "Speaking of it, the emperor and the empress are quite close to each other. The emperor came before the gifts from the empress were carried into the treasury. I had a great birthday this time, but the emperor didn't know.

My concubine’s little storeroom is almost full.”

"So good? I'm almost envious." Shangguan Lie knew that Lin Qingluan was explaining to him that the gift list was not deliberately placed here for him to see, and his eyebrows gradually widened, and he pulled Lin Qingluan, "

You are resting for your birthday, why are you still running around? I asked the imperial kitchen to prepare your favorite dishes for you, so come here and chat with me first."

"Your Majesty~" Lin Qingluan simply sat next to Shangguan Lie. The two of them sat on the same chair. Even though the armchair was wide, they were still close together.

Shangguan Lie said something to her, but there was a smile in his eyes. Lin Qingluan then said coquettishly: "Your Majesty considers me, and I also want to make you happy. I ordered the small kitchen to make the emperor's favorite shredded braised duck."

…”

"I feel happy just looking at you. I like everything I eat." Shangguan said warmly.

Lin Qingluan lowered her eyes as if she was a little shy, and glared at him again: "The emperor loves to make fun of his concubines."

"Why are you laughing at me? I really think so." Shangguan Lie held her hand, but Lin Qingluan said at this moment: "After dinner, I will give the emperor a surprise."

"Huh? Okay, then I'll wait." Shangguan Lie thought Lin Qingluan was talking about the bed, so he couldn't help but look forward to it.

Yu Qingchuan had completely given up on the antidote for the antidote, saying that it was impossible to solve it and that after taking the medicine, he would be unable to conceive for the rest of his life.

Now there is no rush to regret it. After thinking about it for the past few days, Shangguan Lie came to understand that since the past cannot be pursued, one can only look at it as it is.

He was going to follow the Queen Mother's previous advice and make the first exception in this dynasty for Lin Qingluan! This kind of honor was enough for her to enjoy all the glory during her lifetime and after her death.

Shangguan Lie has made a decision and the imperial edict has been drafted. None of the previous emperors in the Dasheng Dynasty had imperial concubines in their harems, but there were some in the previous dynasty.

However, the status of the imperial concubine is really respected. If she is still the imperial concubine who takes charge of the affairs of the Sixth Palace, she is almost equivalent to the deputy empress. Shangguan Lie still has to think of a way to appease Zhai Hanjing. He originally thought that if it didn't work, he would also announce the decree of establishing the crown prince.

Go down.

In this case, the queen should understand his feelings and stop making trouble.

Shangguan Lie felt that he was well balanced, and when he faced Lin Qingluan again, he no longer had those inexplicable guilty consciences. He became more calm, and became closer to him.

After the meal, the two went to the study to play two more games of chess. Seeing that it was almost time, they went to wash up separately.

Back on the bed in the dormitory, Lin Qingluan didn't wait for Shangguan Lie to say anything, and said: "Your Majesty, I received a letter from my brother some time ago."

"Well, how about Beirong? Are you still peaceful?" Shangguan Lie said and sat by the bed.

Lin Qingluan knelt down on the bed, her face filled with joy that didn't seem to be fake: "Beirong is quite peaceful now, and the people of Northern Xinjiang have also got a break. This year's harvest is good. I heard from my brother that the emperor also exempted Northern Xinjiang from taxes.

Let the people have a good New Year."

"The war in Northern Xinjiang has been going on for years, and I am concerned about it. If the people can be safe, I will be relieved." Shangguan sighed.

Lin Qingluan nodded and opened the small drawer on the bedside: "So my brother sent this -"

Shangguan Lie's originally careless eyes fell on the piece of jade, and he couldn't look away for a moment.

He was still thinking about what to do with Lin Yaochen on such a good night, but he never expected that Lin Qingluan could give him such a gift!

Lin Qingluan did not hesitate to take the credit on himself: "The last time my brother returned to Beijing, I told him that since there was no war with Beirong for the time being, he should return the tiger talisman to the emperor. It's just that my brother brought him back at that time.

With the prince and grandson of Beirong, I traveled back to the capital day and night, thinking about so many things, and I didn't dwell on them at that time."

"Is this him, did Yaochen just send it?" Shangguan Lie couldn't help but reach out and grab it, and he subconsciously ignored the strange part in Lin Qingluan's words.

What was returned to the emperor was only the tiger talisman, not military power.

Lin Qingluan continued to coax him with a smile: "Yes, I have urged him to hurry up a long time ago, but I didn't expect to send him back in winter. But my brother didn't dare to go to the inn. Recently, a deputy general named Zhao returned to Beijing.

I asked him to bring her back to marry me."

"Yes, General Zhao is about to stand up and is still unmarried, or I gave him the marriage..." Shangguan Lie didn't even know what he was talking about, he only continued subconsciously.

Is he about to get what he has been thinking about for many years and what he has thought about for a long time?

He couldn't believe it, but when the tiger charm was placed in Lin Qingluan's hand, it seemed to have a fatal attraction for him.

The one hundred thousand Lin family troops in Northern Xinjiang have always been Shangguan Lie's worry. No matter whether the Lin family's legitimate daughter is in the palace or how sincere Lin Yaochen behaves, as an emperor, he just can't rest assured.

But now, the Lin family voluntarily offers the tiger talisman. What does this mean? It means that the Lin family is really loyal to him, and all the 100,000 Lin family troops are loyal to him!

Shangguan Lie's fingers trembled slightly, and he wanted to take the initiative to snatch the tiger talisman, but he also knew that it was wrong, so he did not do anything. He only stared at the tiger talisman with his eyes, refusing to blink.

Lin Qingluan stopped teasing him, stretched out her little hand to hold his hand, spread his palm, and then placed the tiger charm on his hand.

She also smiled and said: "Your Majesty, please take it well. There is only one piece in the world, and I give it to you. If you don't take it properly later, don't blame me - Your Majesty?"

Lin Qingluan was suddenly hugged hard by Shangguan Lie. She was a little overwhelmed and pushed subconsciously, but Shangguan Lie hugged her with such force that it hurt her. Her push was like a worm shaking the tree.

Nothing can be changed.

"Your Majesty... I am going to be out of breath..." Lin Qingluan rolled her eyes at the sky, knowing that he wanted this! Huh!!

Only then did Shangguan Lie relax a little. His hugging posture was supposed to involve stretching out his hands to wrap around the waist of the person in his arms, but Shangguan Lie's hand holding the tiger charm was clenched into a tight fist.

He finally got what he wanted.

How could I not be excited, how could I let go!!

The door of Wan'an Palace has been closed, but there is no movement inside at this moment.

Yu Bao and An Lan stood guard outside the door, not chatting, just waiting to see if the masters would turn off the lights and take a rest, or if they wanted to chat for a while.
