Chapter 32 A Clear Spring in the Harem

Concubine Quan and several other concubines waited for the emperor to arrive with great difficulty. When they saw two people coming in through the door, they were subconsciously stunned.

The young and handsome emperor was seen standing tall but walking leisurely, with one hand casually placed on the arm of a person next to him. The person next to him, although wearing a gorgeous robe, was slightly hunched over with only one arm raised.

How should I put it? If the two people hadn't been wearing the wrong clothes, they would have almost thought that it was the queen who came.

Um... the Queen Mother, and the chief eunuch beside her.

When Helian Yue entered the room, he also noticed the change in Si Linglong's attitude and was almost laughed at by her.

He deliberately treated her as a eunuch, but she didn't care at all and pretended to be a "little minister".

Thanks to her pretense, the moment he entered the room, he had already heard the thoughts of the concubines present.

Concubine Quan has always had a somewhat cold personality: [It’s OK, the person is not dead. ]

Concubine Xue was jealous: [What kind of person is this noble lady Lang? She is really a foxy woman with so many tricks.]

Yu Guiren was worried: [I knew the emperor was injured, but I didn't expect the emperor's injuries were so serious. Now he needs someone to support him when he walks! ]

Hearing this, Helian Yue, who was originally walking with Si Linglong, paused, silently changed his hand from resting on Si Linglong's arm to directly holding it, and without caring what the women in the hall thought, he directly pulled Si Linglong to sit on the main seat.

Concubine Quan remained calm and walked forward, and the concubines behind her immediately followed suit and saluted.

"Your Majesty, I wish you good health and happiness."

There were not many concubines who came, basically those who usually followed Concubine Quan's lead, including naturally a few who were qualified to attend the family dinner that day.

Helian Yue didn't recognize all of his concubines, but after listening to them one by one, he was sure that the voice of the mastermind behind the scenes was not among them.

It seems that he is not from Concubine Tsuen's faction.

Helian Yue let go of Si Linglong's hand, which he had been holding just now, feeling bored.

[You dog emperor, you just held me tightly and wouldn't let me come with you to pay my respects, and now you're letting me go. If you had the guts, you should have stopped holding my hand. ]

Helian Yue glanced at her and said, "You talk too much."

Over there, Concubine Quan, as the one with the highest rank among the concubines, took the initiative to speak first, "I heard that the emperor woke up this morning. I am afraid of disturbing the emperor's rest, so I brought my sisters to pay my respects now. I hope the emperor will forgive me."

His tone was calm and steady, and it seemed more like he was just going through the motions than asking for forgiveness.

But Concubine Quan's attitude has always been like this, and Helian Yue has long been accustomed to it.

Concubine Quan's real name was Gu Qingquan. She was the daughter of General Gu Yunhai of the Cavalry. She was truly a daughter of a general, but she had an indifferent personality. She entered the palace that day only to obey her father's orders, as he did not want the daughter of a civil servant to dominate the harem.

Helian Yue knew this in his heart and never forced himself. He gave her the proper respect and did not care about her lack of enthusiasm.

It was the first time that Si Linglong met the legendary Concubine Quan.

The reason why it was the first time they met was that Concubine Tsuen was not present at the family dinner that day due to illness.

But when she saw her today, Si Linglong felt that the Concubine Quan in front of her seemed even more cold and arrogant than the one she had seen in the book.

【Gu Qingquan, in the author's writing, is a clear spring in the harem of Dayuan. 】

Helian Yue was casually responding to Concubine Quan when he suddenly heard Si Linglong's comment. He was a little surprised. He glanced at Concubine Quan in front of him, raised his eyebrows slightly, and picked up the tea beside him to moisten his thin lips.

A clear spring?

Just because her name is Gu Qingquan?

Si Linglong was unaware of Helian Yue's reaction, and was just stealing glances at Concubine Quan in front of her.

Because he was born into a military family, compared to the bright and beautiful beauties in the palace, this master had a more heroic appearance, and his words and deeds were more unrestrained and aloof.

[Perhaps because of her unpleasant personality, although Helian Yue gave her all respect on the surface, he never really pitied her in private. During the time when Helian Yue fell in love with Bai Qianqian, Gu Qingquan was the only sober concubine in the harem. Although she tried her best to persuade and stop him, she still couldn't stop Helian Yue's determination, and even punished her to kneel in the snow for Bai Qianqian.]

[Helian Yue probably didn't know that after he was poisoned by Bai Qianqian and Helian Yue, the people praised Prince Li for his justice. Only this Concubine Quan, who had once looked down on him, dragged her sick body with frostbite and rushed into Linghua Palace alone with a knife, determined to avenge him. In the end, Helian Tuo ordered people to shoot him to death...]

clang.

The teacup suddenly fell from his hand. Helian Yuefeng's eyes were filled with shock. He looked at Si Linglong and also at Gu Qingquan, who had a cold and arrogant look in front of him.
