Chapter 50

One day before the eldest prince's full moon, Lin Qingluan received news that the emperor invited her and the third concubine to Kunning Palace to discuss matters.

An Lan couldn't hold back her excitement and directly took out a royal dress for her to wear. However, Lin Qingluan felt it was unnecessary, so she changed into a lavender dress with dark gold stripes and wide sleeves.

In mid-May, the weather was getting a bit hot, so Lin Qingluan lazily wore three layers of condoms inside and out. The wound on her shoulder was almost healed, and she could move around and dress without any problems.

After tidying herself up and casually putting on a ponytail, Lin Qingluan was too lazy to walk, so she took a soft sedan to the entrance of Kunning Palace. When she entered the main hall, she didn't see Zhai Hanjing, only Shangguan Lie was sitting at the head.

The good concubine, the diligent concubine, and the good concubine are all here, and the first seat on the right is reserved for her.

Lin Qingluan held on to the fan and walked over with a smile and bowed down: "When I see the emperor, I blame you for being late."

"It's okay, sit down." Shangguan Lie couldn't help but look at her a few more times and praised, "Your concubine's clothes are nice, it makes you look even whiter."

"The emperor also said that it has been more than ten days since I came back from Xinmen Mountain, and my concubine has not been able to go out because of the inconvenience of changing clothes due to this injury." Lin Qingluan said angrily, "It is useless to be bored in the house every day.

"

"Like this?" Shangguan laughed bitterly. He wanted to say a few more words, but after looking at the room full of people, he coughed lightly and said, "Are the wounds healed?"

"Well, it's almost done." Lin Qingluan smiled with crooked eyes.

"Then I'll go and see you in two days." Shangguan Lie couldn't hold himself back and glanced at Lin Qingluan's exposed collar. Lin Qingluan then smiled at him openly: "Your Majesty, my concubine's green-headed card is today.

I hung it up tonight."

This is a clear invitation.

Concubine Qin on the opposite side snorted dissatisfied and said to Shangguan Lie: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty, the Emperor's concubines are here to discuss the eldest prince's full-moon ceremony, aren't they?"

"Yes," Shangguan Lie glanced at Concubine Qin, slightly impatient, but still got down to business, "The war on the border is tense, and I don't want to make a big deal out of the eldest prince's full moon ceremony."

"Your Majesty..." Concubine Qin pouted and was about to say something else. Shangguan Lie had already emphasized her tone and said: "The Queen Mother and the Empress also agree with my idea."

He paused, glanced at the fourth concubine, and continued: "What the Queen Mother means is that Cheng'er is still young, so it doesn't matter. It's just a meal for the family."

"Yes." The four concubines replied in unison.

Shangguan Lie tapped his fingers on the armrest a few times. He looked at Concubine Xian first and then at Lin Qingluan. After a moment, he said: "The Queen is weak. I'm afraid she works too hard. The Concubine will be the one to host tomorrow's full moon banquet."

Let’s do it.”

Lin Qingluan subconsciously said "Ah" and frowned slightly: "Your Majesty, I have never done this before..."

"Then Concubine Xian will work with you to think about it together. If you are not sure, go and ask the Queen Mother for advice." Shangguan Lie made the final decision. He looked at Concubine Xian again, "You have managed the palace affairs well this month. The Queen's health has not yet improved."

It’s all right, so you can work harder for a while longer.”

Concubine Xian almost laughed out loud, but she suppressed her expressions of joy. She stood up and saluted: "Yes, I obey."

"Well, if you are too busy, you can invite your concubine to come with you." Shangguan Lie added.

Concubine Xian's eyes flashed and she smiled again: "Your Majesty is still considerate of me. I am rough-handed and rough-footed. Now that I am about to issue monthly money and summer clothes again, I am afraid that I will make a mistake."

"Then you and Concubine Xian will do the math." Shangguan Lie looked at Lin Qingluan again.

Lin Qingluan frowned reluctantly, tilted her head slightly and glanced at Shangguan Lie, as if she wanted to refuse, but in order to save the emperor's face, she still said, "Yes."

"Your Majesty..." Concubine Qin couldn't sit still. She and the Queen were one and the same. Seeing that the Queen had finally given birth and was about to give birth, the palace power was still in the hands of Concubine Xian. Now there was another noble concubine, but she and

Queen, you won’t get a drop of it!

Shangguan Lie glanced at her lightly: "Concubine Qin takes good care of her baby when she has nothing to do. Don't wander around."

Concubine Qin was stunned, and her eyes instantly filled with tears: "Concubine, I just said a few words about a talented person, does the emperor want to ban me?"

Without waiting for Shangguan Lie to reply, Concubine Qin said angrily: "Moreover, it was the talented man who showed disrespect to me first! The maid next to her actually cursed me that I am pregnant with a princess!"

"What's wrong with the princess? How can it be regarded as a curse?" Lin Qingluan looked at Concubine Qin disapprovingly, "What do you mean by Concubine Qin? She is the princess. That is also the blood of the emperor, and it is my golden branch and jade leaf!

"

Shangguan Lie originally felt that what Concubine Qin said made him uncomfortable, but he didn't react for a moment. When Lin Qingluan said this, he was also a little annoyed: "What? If you don't want to raise the princess, wait until the child is born.

After that, send her to a nearby palace! I will definitely find a better adoptive mother for her!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! This concubine didn't mean that!" Concubine Qin was about to burst into tears. Who among the women in the palace didn't hope to get a man at one stroke? Some time ago, there were rumors that she was pregnant with a similar girl, and she fought for it.

I have scolded many palace servants, but others were fine. Why can't I just scold the talented palace servant?

And now the emperor Jinkou Yuyan said that the child she gave birth to would be a princess, she, she...

"Okay, if you have nothing to do, you can go back." Shangguan Lie really didn't like seeing Concubine Qin's crying face, so he drove her away with some disgust, then looked at Concubine Liang, "I'll bring the eldest princess with me tomorrow. I've been waiting for a long time."

I haven’t seen her yet.”

"Yes, yes, I have remembered it." Concubine Liang did not expect that the emperor would still miss the eldest princess, so she happily saluted immediately.

Concubine Xian stood up with great foresight and said: "I am still looking at the old account books, and there are some things that I haven't figured out yet. I will go back and sort them out. When I get back, I will go to Wan'an Palace to find the imperial concubine for advice."

"Okay, you can go back." Shangguan Lie nodded.

Seeing that everyone was gone, Lin Qingluan also stood up: "Your Majesty..."

Shangguan Lie laughed.

He then stood up, walked to her, raised his hand to hold her shoulders, and explained in a low voice: "I have something to do these two days, so I can't see you for the time being. You be good, okay?"

"Oh." Lin Qingluan lowered her head and picked her fingers, then pulled Shangguan Lie's fingers, "Your Majesty..."

"How white is the cover? Let me see." Shangguan Lie said with a smile, his hand had slid down to her waist, and the other hooked hand slowly held her wrist and moved it up slowly.

Lin Qingluan looked at him coquettishly: "The Emperor... is in Kunning Palace!"

"Well, I'll just take a look." Shangguan Lie lowered his head, rubbed her neck gently, and smiled again, "I'll go see you tomorrow night."

"Okay, then, my concubine... are you leaving first?" Lin Qingluan reluctantly hooked his little finger.

Shangguan Lie sighed, considering that he was still in the Queen's Palace, he nodded and said: "Go back, the eldest prince's full moon banquet will be left to you."

"Hey, I don't know how to do this..." Lin Qingluan sighed, Shangguan Lie could only coax her: "If you don't know it, just learn it. It will be my Longevity Festival in a while, and I still want you to do it."

Lin Qingluan murmured, and Shangguan Lie took her out with a smile. He didn't let go until he reached the door, and warned: "If you are unsure, go to Yongshou Palace. My mother misses you very much."

"My concubine obeys the order." Lin Qingluan's eyes flashed, she glanced at Shangguan Lie again, bowed again and left.
