Chapter 613 Do you understand Concubine Ning?
Aunt Tongyun and the others came in to clean the room again.
But this time, Nan Yan was not as embarrassed as she was in the previous two days. Instead, she sat alone in front of the dressing table, staring at herself in the bronze mirror.
Seems like he's thinking about something.
After everything was cleaned up and the hot water and salt were ready, she still didn't move.
Ran Xiaoyu walked over and whispered, "My Lady?"
“…”
"Empress!"
The voice became louder, and Nan Yan suddenly turned around, as if waking from a dream: "Ah?"
"Time to wash up."
"oh oh……"
She was a little distraught, but she obediently went over to wash up, changed her clothes, and then sat back in front of the dressing table.
Nianqiu combed her hair.
After combing her hair, she still sat there, staring at herself in the mirror in a daze.
Everyone was a little puzzled. Was there any difference between today and the past? When the emperor left this morning, he was still the same as always, his stern face revealing an irresistible tenderness and a satisfied expression.
What's wrong with this imperial concubine?
Aunt Tongyun came over and said softly, "Your Highness, today we should go to Yonghe Palace and pay our respects to the Empress."
"ah……?"
Nan Yan then remembered.
He hurriedly got up, straightened his clothes, and took Ran Xiaoyu and Nian Qiu to Yonghe Palace.
As soon as she walked in, she found that everyone else had arrived. She was also late, so she walked to the center of the palace with some embarrassment and knelt down in front of Xu Miaoyin who was sitting above her, saying, "Your Majesty, the Queen."
"Princess, please get up."
As soon as Xu Miaoyin raised her hand, Ran Xiaoyu and Nian Qiu immediately helped her up.
Immediately afterwards, the concubines from other palaces also came forward to pay their respects to her.
Nan Yan looked up and did not see Concubine Zhuang and Concubine An.
Of course, she didn't care.
After sitting down, Xu Miaoyin said, "A lot of things have happened in the harem these past few days. You all should be more cautious."
Everyone said, "Yes."
"Noble Concubine."
When Nan Yan heard her calling him, he stood up immediately.
Xu Miaoyin looked at her and said, "I heard that the emperor stayed in Yikun Palace again last night?"
With the word "again", everyone's eyes turned over.
Nan Yan couldn't help but sweat a little.
He whispered, "Yes, yes."
Xu Miaoyin smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. I won't blame you. You have just been canonized. You must serve the emperor with all your heart and soul."
“…”
"However, we must also advise the emperor to take care of his health."
“…”
Nan Yan's face turned red.
To be honest, she didn't expect Zhu Feng to come to Yikun Palace for three consecutive days. She remembered that before he went to bed with her, the nanny gave her a shameful book to read. She vaguely remembered that it said that after a man has sex, it takes several days to gather his energy.
Is there something wrong with the book?
He looked like he would need several days to exert all his strength...
However, when I thought about what he said to me last night, my mood became heavy again.
He looked up at Xu Miaoyin, and his eyes became complicated.
But Xu Miaoyin didn't seem to notice anything. She took a sip of tea, turned her head and looked at Ning Fei Qin Ruolan who was sitting beside her with a smile, and said, "Ning Fei, if I remember correctly, your birthday is in two days."
Concubine Ning was originally quiet, but when she heard her say this, she immediately raised her head and said, "Ah?"
Everyone looked over.
Xu Miaoyin smiled and said, "I'm still thinking about how to celebrate for you."
“…”
"Do you have any ideas yourself?"
Qin Ruolan's beautiful face still held an indifferent expression. She stood up and said softly, "Thank you, Queen. But I am lazy by nature and not used to the hustle and bustle."
“…”
"This birthday, it's okay."
“…”
Several new concubines who had entered the palace looked at her with dissatisfaction.
This is a bit ungrateful.
The queen personally said that she wanted to celebrate her birthday, but she actually refused.
Huipin Li Pan'er said dissatisfiedly: "Empress Ning, the Empress wants to celebrate your birthday and she cares about you."
The people next to me looked at each other.
Most of the looks she gave her were blaming her for being "ungrateful".
However, Qin Ruolan just stood there quietly, neither refuting nor offering to explain.
Xu Miaoyin, on the other hand, seemed to be used to her being like this, and smiled without minding at all, "Well, I know you too."
“…”
"Well, forget it then."
After that, we chatted for a while.
When the time was almost up, the concubines said goodbye and left.
Nan Yan was the first to leave Yonghe Palace. Turning around, she saw Concubine Ning quietly walking away. She followed for a while, and Ran Xiaoyu supported her and said, "Your Majesty, shall we return to Yikun Palace?"
Nan Yan shook her head and said, "No."
“…”
"Let's go to Chengqian Palace and take a look."
"oh……"
It just so happened that Ran Xiaoyu hadn't visited her "apprentice" for a long time, so she went to Chengqian Palace with her.
As soon as I walked in, I saw Zhu Chengxuan practicing archery under Ying Shao's guidance in the spacious martial arts training ground.
As soon as he saw them coming, he ran over happily.
"Your Highness."
"Your Highness."
After greeting, Zhu Chengxuan looked at Ran Xiaoyu happily again: "Sister Ran."
Ran Xiaoyu said, "Your Highness seems to be making rapid progress."
Zhu Chengxuan turned around and looked at the arrows that hit the target, and smiled shyly.
He whispered, "I'm afraid my father won't be satisfied."
This kid really did all this just to satisfy Zhu Feng.
Perhaps it was because Zhu Feng had never been satisfied with him in the past.
Nan Yan looked at him, her mood becoming heavy again. The child was very perceptive and looked up at her: "Your Highness, you seem to be worried about something?"
"No, I didn't."
Nan Yan smiled and said, "Your Highness, please continue practicing."
"Um."
Zhu Chengxuan hurried back.
Ran Xiaoyu also walked over and looked. Nan Yan retreated to the side under the eaves and watched them.
At this time, I found a person standing on the other side.
Slender and beautiful figure.
The other person happened to see him, and they both looked at each other for a moment, stunned.
Concubine Ning Qin Ruolan.
Nan Yan was a little surprised to see her here.
The two looked at each other for a while.
She thought that according to her rank, Concubine Ning should come to pay her respects, but Qin Ruolan looked at her for a while, then glanced at His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei who was practicing archery over there.
Then, he turned and left.
Nan Yan frowned and took a step towards that side, but she really left without looking back.
“……?”
What's going on?
After staying in Chengqian Palace for a while, Nan Yan took Ran Xiaoyu back to Yiku Palace. She was sweating profusely after walking outside. After returning, Aunt Tongyun immediately brought her warm water for her to wash her face.
Nan Yan washed her face and suddenly said, "Aunt."
"Um?"
"Do you, do you understand Concubine Ning?"
