An Ranyue was staring blankly at a laurel tree in the yard. The fragrance of the laurel came from afar, and Shen Zhiyun took a deep breath. This half-crazy man actually knew how to enjoy himself.
The yard full of flowers and plants is the most elegant place in the mansion.
Shen Zhiyun's arrival did not bring about any big changes in An Ranyue. She just looked up at her and continued to look at her laurel, as if the laurel tree could produce the moon.
Shen Zhiyun approached slowly and did not blame her for being unreasonable. After all, An Ranyue was the concubine, not himself.
When the little maid saw Shen Zhiyun, she bowed. Shen Zhiyun sat next to An Ranyue and said, "Princess Yue, have you been feeling better recently?"
"Better? I'm always in good health." An Ranyue heard her words and spoke softly.
Shen Zhiyun was a little embarrassed: "Really? That's not what I meant. Has Princess Yue heard anything about the prince recently?"
"What is it?"
"The prince has been out of the house a lot recently. Has the prince told my sister where he's going?"
"I went to look for the damned An Yanran..."
In fact, Shen Zhiyun was just asking, and he didn't expect her to say anything, but he didn't expect her to say such a thing. He couldn't help but be shocked: "What... does this mean?"
"That's exactly what I mean!" An Ranyue plucked off a flower and casually put it on the side of Shen Zhiyun's mane. The small white laurel looked like a mourning ornament for someone.
Shen Zhiyun didn't care: "How to find her? How to find An Yanran?"
"Go see her. Maybe he misses her." An Ranyue stood up with a smile. "They probably want to see each other. Seeing something reminds people of her. He has been sitting in her room for so long. How could he not want to see her in person?"
Hearing this, Shen Zhiyun felt a cool breeze on his back.
What she said was really scary, but luckily she was half crazy and half stupid, so she stopped asking questions and just walked out.
"You probably all think I'm crazy, but you don't know that I, a madman, am the sober one..." An Ranyue shouted at Shen Zhiyun's back, then fell back into the chair and continued to stare at her Yue Gui in a daze.
Shen Zhiyun walked out of the yard, patted his chest, and broke out in a cold sweat, as if he had survived a disaster.
An Ranyue’s words were really scary.
Until Dongfang Ye came back, Shen Zhiyun still didn't know how much to believe her words, or whether to believe them at all, but she knew that Dongfang Ye stayed in An Yanran's room for a long time.
Did he really miss her?
Or maybe he went to her grave.
Shen Zhiyun looked at Dongfang Ye with a frown on his face, and did not dare to speak for a moment.
After Dongfang Ye came back, he praised Shen Zhiyun, then sent someone to invite the imperial physician, and personally accompanied Huang Ying'er to take care of the child.
He did it properly and correctly.
No one could find any fault with him, but Shen Zhiyun always felt that he was hiding some big secret that he didn't want her to know.
at night.
He came to Shen Zhiyun's room. The two of them did not show affection like before. Dongfang Ye sat at the table and drank a few glasses of wine. He asked Shen Zhiyun to accompany him. After Shen Zhiyun drank two glasses, a rosy glow appeared on his face, adding a bit of charm.
She was only twenty years old, and after giving birth to a child, she did not age any better, but only became more charming. So Dongfang Ye looked at her, reached out his hand, and stroked her face: "You are so beautiful..."
Shen Zhiyun unexpectedly said, "Is she prettier than An Yanran?"
Dongfang Ye's hands froze there, with an awkward expression on his face: "Why did you mention her suddenly?"
There was a hint of disgust in his tone.
Shen Zhiyun smiled: "I just think she is the most beautiful woman in our palace. Yes, I should say she was once the most beautiful woman."
"She..." There was still disgust in Dongfang Ye's voice.
Shen Zhiyun felt much better after hearing this. His words proved that he was not missing that person, but maybe he just wanted to calm down in her room.
So, she wisely didn't ask any further questions.
*******************
Shouwang Mansion.
Dongfang Xin's birthday.
Zhong Min'er was planning to hold a celebration for him.
Dongfang Run and Lou Wanyue both disagreed, but the young master's birthday was no small matter after all. Moreover, it was Dongfang Run's first birthday since he came back, so they couldn't be careless.
Finally, as a compromise, they only invited their closest acquaintances to the banquet.
Invitations were also sent to Dongfang Jin and An Qingran.
Lian Muhan and Dongfang Ruoxue were the first to arrive. They prepared very expensive gifts for Dongfang Xin. Dongfang Xin had no idea about pearls and jade, but he just thought that the box of donkey skin shadow puppets was interesting. He and Lian Qingcheng had a lot of fun playing with them. Fortunately, they were made of donkey skin and were very strong, otherwise the whole box would not be enough for them to tear apart.
When Dongfang Ran first saw Lian Qingcheng, he ran over with a smile. He was almost four years old now, only one month younger than Dongfang Xin, and almost as tall as her. He also ran over. If the colors of their clothes were different, they would look like twins. Both were pink and tender babies with the same pretty eyes and eyebrows. Everyone looked at the three children with smiles on their faces.
Lou Wanyue stood beside An Qingran and said, "These two little brothers have a pretty good relationship."
Yes, the two of them look like real brothers. Accompanying Lian Qingcheng, the three of them put on a show, shouting and yelling as if they were commanding an army of thousands.
Dongfang Xin is only one month older than Dongfang Ran, but he seems to really think of himself as the older brother. He gives orders calmly. Dongfang Ran obeys no one in the palace except Dongfang Xin. No matter what Dongfang Ran asks him to do, he runs around without complaint, like a little brother doing odd jobs.
Seeing this, Lou Wanyue wanted to teach Dongfang Xin a lesson, but was stopped by An Qingran: "They are just children. If we adults get involved, it would seem deliberate."
Lou Wanyue felt a little embarrassed. If someone with ulterior motives spread such a matter, they would become criminals.
No, he is originally a criminal, and I am afraid he even has rebellious intentions.
An Qingran quickly brought up the topic of how to take care of children. Together with Lou Wanyue and Dongfang Ruoxue, the three women soon began talking and laughing. Each of them told interesting stories about their children and their helplessness when they were naughty. Their laughter made Dongfang Jin, who was not far away, smile bitterly and shook his head.
Originally, he still had political affairs to deal with, but An Qingran insisted on pulling him in and talking about Dongfang Ran's request.
How could a little kid like him make such a request?
As it turned out, it should have been her request.
I guess they were afraid that he was tired.
These days, he felt that she was the one who was tired and looked unhappy. He wanted to stop her from coming, but he was afraid that she would be unhappy.
Now he was relieved to hear her laughter.
Dongfang Run still couldn't remember anything and treated him with distant respect, which made Dongfang Jin feel uncomfortable.
He had always disliked Dongfang Run, but no matter what, he didn't want to see him like this.
Lian Muhan was the most relaxed one. Sometimes he was playing with the children, and sometimes he went to Dongfang Jin's side and waited for instructions. In fact, Dongfang Jin knew that his mind was not on them at all, and he was completely attracted by the children.
He wished he could run to them and play with them.
Zhong Min'er has been busy. Originally, she was the one who had been in charge of this matter. Now that so many people have come, she has to show off. Only after everyone has been arranged did the sisters come out.
Zhong Min'er's appearance did not bring any shock to everyone. When she paid her respects to Dongfang Jin, Dongfang Jin simply told her not to be polite. However, when he lowered his head and saw Zhong Min'er's profile, he could not help but be surprised for a moment, and then looked at Dongfang Run. However, Dongfang Run did not look at her. His eyes looked through the lush flowers and trees towards the sky.
Zhong Ling'er came out to help, and when she turned her head, she saw Dongfang Jin. Her natural majesty and the domineering aura of an emperor made her pause, and the glass cup in her hand almost fell. She hurriedly lowered her head to hide her thoughts. After putting down the fruit plate, she lifted her skirt and bowed gracefully. Dongfang Jin thought she was just a pretty little palace maid, but he didn't expect that she was so beautiful and was Dongfang Run's sister-in-law. He couldn't help but take a few more glances at her.
To be honest, Lun looks like An Qingran. She is not as good as Zhong Miner, but the spiritual energy in her is particularly similar. Dongfang Jin couldn't help but frowned. He looked at Dongfang Run and felt a little depressed. Didn't he lose his memory?
He lost his memory?
Zhong Ling'er knelt there, and didn't hear Dongfang Jin's voice for a long time. She couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. Seeing this, Zhong Min'er pulled Dongfang Run's sleeve. Dongfang Run came back to his senses, and Dongfang Jin also reacted: "You get up."
Zhong Ling'er stood up shyly, lowered her eyebrows, but quickly glanced at Dongfang Jin.
She originally thought that Dongfang Run was the most handsome man in the world, and she was jealous of her sister. But now that she saw Dongfang Jin, she began to feel a little jealous of An Qingran.
She is now fat and although she looks okay, she is nowhere near her youthful beauty.
Although she looks wealthy and powerful, there is fatigue in her eyes. Could it be that Dongfang Jin doesn't like her, and she is sad about her old age?
She had her own plans in mind, but she didn't show it on her face, but she smiled gently and charmingly.
Seeing the embarrassing situation, Zhong Min'er hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, please don't be offended. Ling'er is too young and has never seen the world. Please forgive her vulgarity."
"Vulgar? That's an exaggeration." Dongfang Jin smiled, and that smile was so warm that Zhong Ling'er was almost stunned.
She looked at the emperor in front of her in disbelief. Everyone said that the emperor was a true dragon emperor, mighty and powerful, but in her eyes, he was extraordinarily handsome. She had previously thought that Lian Muhan was just a good-looking young man, but now compared to the emperor, the rest of the people were just dirt pigs and dogs.
Zhong Linger smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."
Dongfang Jin looked at her again, very curious about how Dongfang Run knew them sisters.
His curiosity had a different meaning in Zhong Ling'er's eyes.
She stepped aside and began to tease Dongfang Xin and Dongfang Ran. Dongfang Ran was just a child after all and didn't understand anything. When he saw the beautiful Zhong Ling'er, he looked at her with a smile and pulled her hand to ask her to play with them, and she played the role of Da Ma.
