Chapter 699: Make a New Set of Clothes for You

The first day of the Lunar New Year got off to a good start, and in the following days, the palace was immersed in a lively and festive New Year atmosphere.

It was also from this day that Si Linglong discovered that more people came to visit her.

And it wasn't directed at Helian Yue.

It seemed that after returning from the first day of the New Year, a concubine went back to the palace and carefully looked at the New Year purse given by the emperor, and found that the embroidery on it was similar to that of Yuxiu Palace.

Comparing it with the one given by Concubine Lang, the embroidery is indeed the same.

The concubines vaguely guessed something.

Why did the emperor break his usual practice and prepare red envelopes for them and give them to them personally instead of just giving them away casually like in previous years?

It turns out that this was prepared by Concubine Lang.

Although they felt uncomfortable knowing the truth, and even maliciously speculated that this was a deliberate humiliation from Concubine Lang, most people were more subtle.

Because it is undeniable that they were truly happy when they received the purse personally handed over by the emperor.

At that moment, it seemed as if they had finally become flesh-and-blood people in the eyes of the emperor.

Therefore, except for some who have more extreme ideas, most of the concubines still prefer to be close to Si Linglong.

This should be a good thing.

However, Helian Yue was not so happy.

I thought it was just a matter of lending a hand and talking.

But who would have thought that there would be a sequel.

The sequel is that he finally had time to put aside his official duties and spend time with someone, but because of these extra "sisters", half of his time was lost...

It was not until this moment that Helian Yue truly felt——

Having too many concubines in the harem is indeed not a good thing.

…

While the palace was celebrating the New Year in a bustling atmosphere, Xiang Tian and Hua Yan also got together to celebrate a little.

All the things were bought by Xiang Tian, ​​including a hot pot, a new set of clothes for Hua Yan, and a red envelope given by her brother.

In order to avoid arousing suspicion due to Xiang Tian's frequent leaving the palace, Helian Yue did not let Xiang Tian leave the palace to reunite with his family.

But Xiang Tian felt that he should at least celebrate with his sister alone in the palace.

The palace had been busy for the past two days, and only today did they manage to find time to celebrate the festival together.

But Hua Yan still felt guilty when she wore the new clothes Xiang Tian gave her, after all, she was a fake.

"I have clothes, lots of clothes, more than I can wear."

Because Hua Yan often stays by Xue Sha's side, Si Linglong basically takes her along when she asks her to make clothes for Xue Sha.

This is also the biggest difference between Hua Yan and other palace maids.

She wears different clothes and eats different food. If they didn't know that their queen and the emperor have a good relationship, the other palace maids would even guess whether Hua Yan was a girl prepared by their queen to consolidate their favor.

Fortunately, these were just one or two unreasonable fantasies. Others, especially Shuhong and Qinglu who knew Hua Yan's true identity, did not think much about it.

In their view, their queen simply likes to dress up.

Not to mention Hua Yan, even Fei Fei, the big white cat, had her own mother make several sets of beautiful clothes for him.

It was also because Xiang Tiancai saw that the cats around the empress all had exquisite and beautiful clothes that he thought of spending money to ask the embroiderer to help make a new dress for his sister.

Although he was not well-off in the palace, he thought he could still support his sister.

"You change into something, it will look good." Xiang Tian paused and added, "When you are with the young lady, dress nicer so that others won't bully you."

Hua Yan said, "No one bullies me."

The Queen and the Little Prince both protected her, and Hua Yan felt that she was living a good life.

Xiang Tian just looked at her and asked her, "Hasn't Xiu Liu, who is beside the young lady, ever bullied you?"

He had sharp eyes and now served in the inner palace, so he had naturally seen Xiu Liu vying for her favor several times.

He had never seen Xiuliu hit his sister, otherwise he would have done it directly.

I don't care whether the other person is a woman or not.

Hua Yan was a little confused when he mentioned Xiu Liu. She shook her head and smiled, "Xiu Liu is very kind to me. She always rushes to help me with work."

Xiang Tian: ...

Is he trying to help you? He is clearly trying to show off in front of the young lady.

But looking at the look on his silly sister's face, it was obvious that he had never thought about it that way.

Xiang Tian didn't want her to think too much, so he didn't say anything more. Anyway, if she was really bullied, he would stand up for her.

He then picked up a piece of mutton for her with his chopsticks.

Hua Yan ate while blowing the food. She glanced at the eunuch's clothes on Xiang Tian. After thinking for a while, she asked him again, "Brother Tianbao, can I make you a new dress too? Make you something different."

She knew that all the young eunuchs in the palace wore clothes like this, but Brother Tianbao was obviously not a eunuch, but he couldn't wear other clothes. She always felt that he was somewhat unfair.

She had seen many people and knew that Brother Tianbao was good-looking. He would definitely look better if he changed into other clothes.

For example, the dark guard brother who appears when Sister Shuhong blows the whistle occasionally has very nice clothes.

Black loach, like a strong black fish.

I just don’t know whether the clothes are easy to make.

Hua Yan was thinking to herself, and Xiang Tian did not interrupt her. When he heard her say that she wanted to make a new set of clothes for him, he thought she was making a new eunuch's uniform. Although he did not like the eunuch's uniform he was wearing, he would still like it if it was made by his sister.

Thinking that the eunuch uniforms were not elaborate in style, it should not be difficult to make them, so she nodded without refusing.

"Okay, I'll wait for the new clothes you make for me."

Hua Yan was immediately happy.

Finally I can do something for Yanyan's brother.

Otherwise she would be really guilty.

It's so hard to be a human being.

After finishing the meal and cleaning up, Xiang Tian left when it was already dark. He was walking back in the night, passing by the wall of Yuxiu Palace, when he suddenly noticed a few yellow petals scattered on the ground in the corner against the wall.

In the withered courtyard in winter, the petals at the corners appear unusually bright.

Xiang Tian's feet suddenly paused, and the next second, his eyes gradually turned cold.

He knew that this was a message Bai Qianqian had someone leave for him.

The yellow petals meant that she wanted to see him.

A sneer appeared unconsciously on Xiang Tian's lips.

He restrained himself from killing her, but she still wanted to see him?

Let's meet then.

He wanted to see what she wanted him to do next.

Xiang Tian thought so, walked forward expressionlessly, raised his foot, and crushed the petals directly into the snow.
