Tsk tsk tsk, my son has good vision, but his status is too low.
But I thought that my low status didn't matter, and it wouldn't be a problem for the wife to raise the child.
Then my thoughts started to become active.
In a blink of an eye, every concubine at the dinner performed a show for the emperor.
When it was Lu Huanyan's concubine's turn, she covered her mouth and coughed for a long time.
The other concubines beside her began to laugh, "Your Majesty, Sister Lan's health is really not as good as before. Poor Sister Lan, she used to be a stunning beauty. I heard that her dancing was especially moving."
Concubine Lan was the daughter of the Left Prime Minister Bai Qian and came from a prominent family. The reason she was not favored was entirely because it was a political marriage.
Concubine Lan was always thinking about other people and had been depressed for many years. The emperor knew what was going on, so he rarely visited Concubine Lan. Concubine Lan didn't even have a child.
His lung disease has become more serious recently, and Lu Huanyan feels that he may not live for many more years.
Fortunately, even though she was not favored, Bai Qian still doted on his daughter and gave her many good things, so at least she was still alive.
At this time, Concubine Lan was in trouble, and Lu Huanyan felt very distressed.
Although she had only been in the palace for a short time, Concubine Lan was really good to her.
The first-class maid was also Concubine Lan's personal maid who came with her from her mother's home. Because there were few people around her, no one made things difficult for her.
Seeing that everyone was making things difficult for her master, the maid became anxious.
And Concubine Lan's cough became even more severe.
Even the people around him raised their hands to cover their mouths in disgust.
"Sister Lan Fei, you'd better not go out again if you're sick. What if you get infected?"
It's full of sarcasm and ridicule inside and out.
However, Concubine Lan kept her head slightly lowered, as if she was already accustomed to such a situation.
The emperor had no intention of asking for help. After all, he actually liked Concubine Lan and respected her talent.
But for so many years, Concubine Lan never even looked at him, and anyone would be angry.
Now that they are both old, although they have become more open-minded about such things, they can't help but feel like watching a good show.
But you can't force people.
Maybe it was possible before, but now...
Suddenly, Lu Huanyan squatted in front of Lan Fei, looking at her with distressed and sincere eyes.
She knew it was inappropriate to do so at this moment. A royal banquet was not a place for a fourth-rank maid like her to act out and act willfully, but she couldn't bear it.
If a person has no enthusiasm and sense of justice, even if she becomes a female official one day in the future, she will not be able to work for the welfare of the people.
If your heart is evil, how can you do everything for the people?
"My Lady, have you forgotten that in order to celebrate the Imperial Concubine's birthday, I specially asked this servant to prepare a dance to perform on your behalf?"
Concubine Lan was stunned and even forgot to cough. She never expected that this little palace maid who had been with her for less than two months would stand up for her.
Once the words were spoken, if she did not agree, the little palace maid would probably be beheaded.
Especially the genuine heartache in the other person's eyes.
So Concubine Lan smiled. Even though there were some wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, it still couldn't hide her heavenly beauty.
"Yes, Sister Imperial Concubine, Lan'er has not been in good health. I wanted to liven up the atmosphere for everyone, so I asked the little girl next to me to prepare a dance. I hope Sister Imperial Concubine won't dislike it."
This statement contains a lot of information.
However, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Concubine Lan trusted the little girl beside her very much, otherwise she would not have let a palace maid do such an important task.
Some people have even begun to doubt Lu Huanyan's true identity.
