Lin Qingluan laughed indifferently: "I forced him to kill Mr. Lu, it's strange that he would be happy."

An Lan didn't dare to say anything more, but Lin Qingluan suddenly wanted to understand something.

Now is not the time for her to fall out with Shangguan Lie.

It takes time for her letter to be delivered, and her brother also needs to make arrangements slowly.

She couldn't let Shangguan Lie be a little suspicious of her or the Lin family, and he would have to trust her and the Lin family even more than in the previous life.

Everything needs to be figured out slowly...

Lin Qingluan sighed: "Tomorrow... let the small kitchen prepare some food that the emperor likes during lunch."

The next day, An Lan sent the letter back to the Lin family and brought the birthday gift prepared by Mrs. Lin for Lin Qingluan.

Lin Qingluan didn't have any objections. Anyway, the Queen Mother would "like it very much" if she gave it to her.

She asked someone to put it away, and then asked someone to invite Shangguan Lie.

She knew he would definitely come, because she and her brother were both still useful...

Sure enough, Shangguan Lie came, but it was mixed with a cold air and displeasure, clearly showing his mood.

Seeing him again, Lin Qingluan still felt that the hatred in her heart was hard to get rid of.

But thinking about the entire Lin Mansion, she closed her eyes, gritted her teeth, walked forward, raised her hands and hugged Shangguan Lie's waist.

Smelling the familiar ambergris, Lin Qingluan suddenly remembered the words of Mr. Lu in her previous life.

nausea……

Her stomach suddenly turned, and she almost vomited it out. Fortunately, she gritted her teeth and held it back.

Just holding her in such a silent position made Shangguan Lie a little impatient, "What does your concubine mean by this?"

Shangguan Lie pulled her arm away, walked over and sat down, "Are you complaining that I haven't come to see you in the past few days?"

"The emperor is in charge of everything, and I, the concubine, will naturally know it."

Lin Qingluan's long eyelashes trembled slightly, her eyes were gleaming, and the ends of her eyes were flushed with patience. She held the soup bowl in her bare hands and placed it in front of Shangguan Lie, lowering her head and bending the white back of her neck.

"I am ignorant and have made the emperor sad without knowing it. I beg the emperor to forgive me this time."

Shangguan Lie glanced at her several times, and after a moment he breathed out, "Forget it."

He pulled her, let her sit on his lap, and put his arm around her slim waist. When he spoke again, he was much gentler, "You have to know how I treat you."

In the suddenly strong ambergris, Lin Qingluan felt nauseated again. She tried her best to squeeze out a shy and timid smile, and glanced at Shangguan Lie quietly, her long eyelashes trembling like butterfly wings.

She slowly leaned on his shoulder and her voice softened, "I naturally know how the emperor treats me..."

The meal was enjoyed by both the guests and the host, and by the time Shangguan Lie left Wan'an Palace, there was already a smile on his face.

As soon as he left, Lin Qingluan staggered and ran behind the screen.

Her stomach was turbulent, and an irrepressible force surged from bottom to top. With a "wow" sound, she vomited everything she had just eaten.

"Master!" An Lan was shocked and was about to go find the imperial doctor.

But Lin Qingluan grabbed An Lan's arm tightly, "No... we can't let others know..."

It wasn't that she was still ill, but that being with Shangguan Lie really made her sick.

An Lan seemed to have guessed something and didn't dare to say anything. He just helped Lin Qingluan slowly move to the small couch to lie down, and brought some water for her to rinse her mouth.

When everything was settled, Lin Qingluan couldn't help but smile bitterly.

This is really troublesome...

She is not a chaste and fierce woman. Although she hates Shangguan Lie very much, she can still act well.

It was just her body's reaction that made her want to vomit as soon as she got closer to Shangguan Lie. If she couldn't hold back the vomiting when they were in bed...

It seems that we have to find a way to avoid being favored temporarily.

Lin Qingluan thought for a long time and then sent a message to her sister-in-law Wu, telling her to find some beautiful women to raise in the Lin Mansion for future use.

Kunning Palace.

Zhai Hanjing rubbed his forehead and listened to the reply from Jin Ru, the personal palace maid.

"... It was agreed that she would commit suicide, but the people around the imperial concubine went to slap Mr. Lu thirty times. She lost four of her teeth and was beaten to death with random sticks. She was not allowed to restrain herself..."

Zhai Hanjing interrupted her, feeling tired both physically and mentally, "The same goes for the imperial concubine. Since she has been given death, why bother to humiliate her?!"

"Then Mrs. Lu seems to be a restless person. The imperial concubine and her fought with each other and achieved this result, and the empress can feel at ease." Jin Ru said with a smile.

Zhai Hanjing shook his head, "The emperor is really indulgent towards the imperial concubine."

The Lu family had a good family background, and the emperor really liked him a bit, but Lin Qingluan insisted, so the emperor relented and killed him directly.

This kind of pampering really shocked her.

Jin Ru advised: "So what? The imperial concubine has nothing to do so far. The empress can only give birth to the little prince with peace of mind. No matter who she is, she can't get past the empress."

Zhai Hanjing still shook his head.

She knew the emperor, so she was even more afraid of the emperor's partiality towards Lin Qingluan.

Yesterday when he agreed to give Lu a death sentence, the emperor was clearly angry, but a day later, he was coaxed back to peace by Lin Qingluan.

Could it be that in the emperor's heart, Lu's death was only worth being angry with Lin Qingluan for one day?

Think about Lin Qingluan’s family background again...

It would be okay if Lin Qingluan remained childless, but if she gave birth in the future, she would definitely be her child's formidable enemy!

She hesitated for a moment, but finally made a decision: "Jin Ru, go and invite Concubine Liang and Concubine Qin. The Queen Mother's birthday will be in a month. I am inconvenient, so I invite them to assist me in preparing for my birthday."

feast."

"Yes, slave girl, go right away."

————

Lin Qingluan had a plan in mind and tried hard to force herself to eat well and sleep well. However, within half a month, her energy and energy were almost gone.

On the Holy Birthday Day, Lin Qingluan began to dress up early, but when she looked at the charming and beautiful woman in the mirror, she could only laugh at herself.

In the evening, Lin Qingluan brought An Lan and Mulian to the birthday banquet.

The Queen Mother really liked the picture of longevity and longevity she gave her. She talked to her a lot in front of everyone. Lin Qingluan responded with a smile, being well-behaved and docile, while Shangguan Lie looked at her with a doting smile.

On the other side, Zhai Hanjing also had a smile on his face, but there was a hint of darkness in his eyes.

There were more gifts coming later, and the Queen Mother reluctantly let go of Lin Qingluan, and the picture of longevity and blessings was kept in the hands of the nun behind the Queen Mother, as if the Queen Mother liked it very much.

When the banquet started, because the queen and the concubine were both pregnant at this time, the queen mother had been looking forward to the good news for her golden grandson for many years. She was so happy that she laughed again and again during the banquet and raised glasses to drink together several times.

Lin Qingluan had a pretty good drinking capacity, and the fruit wine given to the female family members at this banquet was the lightest fruit wine. She drank a few glasses of it, but out of the corner of her eye, she saw Shangguan Lie getting up and walking towards her.

She was startled, and really didn't want to throw up at the banquet, so she said to Mulian: "I'm going out for a trip. If anyone asks, just say that I went to change clothes."

After saying that, Lin Qingluan quickly stood up and left.

She made an excuse when she came out, but she probably had too much wine. After walking a few steps, she really felt something, so she simply held An Lan's hand and walked to the place where the women were changing.

Lin Qingluan never liked being near others when he was at his convenience, and An Lan was always waiting outside the door.

But this time, as soon as Lin Qingluan stood up, she felt something was wrong.

My head...is so dizzy...

My body also started to feel warm...

She was shocked and thought to herself that it was not good.

Is it wine?

Or is it the fragrance from the dressing room?!

I wanted to call out to An Lan, but I was keenly aware that there seemed to be no one outside the door.

Lin Qingluan staggered toward the door. Before she could push it open, she suddenly heard voices outside the door coming closer and closer. She couldn't hear what was said specifically, but it was definitely a man's voice.

This is where women change clothes!

Lin Qingluan bit the tip of her tongue and tried to stay awake.

She looked around, locked the door with her backhand, then ran to the back window as fast as she could, and tried her best to climb out.

The back window was next to a bamboo forest, and outside the bamboo forest was where the guards were patrolling. She should be able to attract people by shouting, but as soon as she stepped out, Lin Qingluan didn't notice, and there was actually a figure lurking in the bamboo forest!

He actually wanted to trap her to death. It was really a generous act, and he really thought highly of her!

However, her mind was getting more and more drowsy, and Lin Qingluan couldn't care anymore. She randomly chose a direction and ran over.

There is no end to the road, and there is still a window open.

Lin Qingluan didn't care anymore. She used her last strength to climb into the window, and then with a low "Who?", she fell into a hard embrace.
