After these events happened one after another, the people in the harem finally realized that Concubine Qin was the one the emperor loved.
Otherwise, how could the emperor forgive Concubine Qin for such a serious crime? Not only did he forgive her, but he also promoted her rank, only one rank lower than the queen.
Gradually, all the people in the harem gathered around Concubine Qin. They were truly fence-sitters who changed with the wind.
The weather gradually became colder, and Lin Zan exhaled a breath, which instantly turned into white mist.
Bixia took a rabbit fur cloak and put it on Lin Zhan, then said, "Miss, it's cold outside, let's go inside."
"Well, let's go in. How is the hot pot preparation going? Have you notified Tuanzi?" Lin Zan asked Bixia while retracting his little hand.
Bixia smiled. "Miss, don't worry. The Fourth Prince will definitely come."
"Of course, he has a dog's nose. Once he smells something delicious in my Hanfang Pavilion, he will definitely come." Lin Zan also laughed out loud.
As soon as he walked into the house, he felt warm. Lin Zhan took off his cloak. On the table was a steaming hot pot. The salty, spicy and spicy aroma hit him in the face, making him very salivate.
"Li Zi, I'm here." Jun Anqing's voice came from far away, and finally he lifted the curtain and rushed in with a cool breeze.
Lin Zhan frowned and said unhappily, "Close the curtain quickly, it's so cold."
"Hey, look what I brought you?" Jun Anqing said as he took out the things in the lunch box.
There was actually tripe inside, and Lin Zan's eyes lit up instantly.
Since that day, Lin Zan described in detail to Jun Anqing what tripe was, and Jun Anqing kept it in mind. He finally found this thing called tripe with great difficulty.
Lin Zhan took the plate of tripe in surprise, and then gave Jun Anqing a thumbs up. "You are a well-deserved foodie. You can even get something so difficult to get."
"As long as you want to eat it, I can get it for you." Jun Anqing looked very righteous and said while patting his chest.
The two of them sat around the hot pot and started eating enthusiastically.
Jun Anqing talked about the upcoming school entrance. "Qinglan Academy is about to start school, Li Zi, have you prepared your things?"
Hearing his words, Lin Zhan loosened his grip on the chopsticks in his hand, and then he remembered that Qinglan Academy would start school in winter, so he curled his lips. "It's cold in winter, I just want to stay in bed and sleep, I don't want to go to school."
"That's the royal father's golden words. You can't resist. If you don't go to Qinglan Courtyard, you can't live in the palace." Jun Anqing said vaguely as he stuffed the hot meat into his mouth.
This sentence instantly made Lin Zhan's eyes light up, and he asked hurriedly, "Tuanzi, what did you say? I can't live in the palace anymore."
Jun Anqing, who was eating meat, had no time to answer her. Lin Zhan was so anxious that he snatched his bowl away. "Come on, tell me, what's going on?"
"Why are you in such a hurry? Qinglan Court is in the suburbs of Shangjing, far from the imperial palace. If you go to Qinglan Court to study, you naturally can't live in the palace anymore. Do you want to get up at yin hour every day?"
Jun Anqing rolled his eyes and said to Lin Zan that Yinshi meant that Lin Zan had to get up at four or five o'clock to rush to Qinglan Courtyard for school.
Then he arrived at Qinglan Court at noon for morning class. Two or three hours would be wasted on the journey, and Lin Zhan couldn't help but shiver.
But after changing her mind, Lin Zhan smiled happily again. She could finally temporarily get away from the prison of the palace and see the vast world outside.
Seeing Lin Zhan laughing so hard, Jun Anqing was puzzled. "Are you really that happy?"
"Of course I'm very happy." Lin Zan said as he put the cooked meat into Jun Anqing's bowl and asked him to eat more.
In the next few days, Lin Zan was looking forward to the opening date of Qinglan Academy.
Finally, that day arrived. Lin Zan got up excitedly early in the morning before dawn. He put on his clothes swiftly for the first time and went to say goodbye to Liu Qiuchan.
When Liu Qiuchan saw the smile on Lin Zhan's face that she couldn't hide, she immediately understood what she was thinking and scratched her little nose with her hand.
"Leaving the palace to attend the girls' school is a good thing, but it also means that you will no longer have my protection. You should be careful in the future and don't try to be stubborn. If you are wronged, come back and tell me during your monthly rest period. I will help you vent your anger."
Liu Qiuchan acted like she was the boss behind you, which instantly made Lin Zhan happy. "Don't worry, sister. I understand."
Afterwards, Liu Qiuchan asked Dongxiang to prepare a lot of pens, inks, papers and inkstones that Linzhan would need. All of them were top-quality tributes, good things that others could not even dream of seeing on a normal day.
Lin Zhan couldn't help putting all these things into the box, and then went to the imperial study to pay his respects to the emperor.
For her first visit to the girls' school, the emperor naturally did not hesitate to give Lin Zhan a carriage, in which she could enjoy priority passage.
That is to say, on the road, as long as Lin Zhan sits in this carriage, everyone needs to give way to her.
Lin Zhan naturally accepted the reward happily, then took the things into the carriage and left the palace with Bixia by his side.
At the same time, Si Xueyi was about to leave the palace to go to Qinglan Courtyard for school. Before she left, Concubine Qin said to her, "While that little bitch Lin Zhan is not in the palace, find a chance to make her disappear completely. If you can't even do this little thing, then you don't deserve to be a pawn of our Qin family."
"Yes, the Imperial Concubine." Si Xueyi lowered her head and responded.
When leaving the palace, Lin Zan's carriage and Si Xueyi's carriage happened to meet each other.
The violent shaking almost caused Lin Zhan to fall down, but fortunately Bixia, who was sitting next to her, was quick to catch her. "Miss, are you okay?"
"I haven't even left the palace yet, is there anyone looking for trouble with me?" Lin Zhan gritted his teeth, lifted the curtain and looked outside, just in time to see Si Xueyi who was also peeking out.
Si Xueyi saw that Lin Zhan was neither humble nor arrogant, so she nodded slightly and said with a smile, "It turns out to be Miss Lin."
"I was wondering who was so rebellious as to crash into the carriage given to me by the Emperor. It turns out that the one who was reckless was Miss Si!"
Lin Zan knew that kind people are often bullied, so he put on a high profile from the beginning and spoke sharply to Si Xueyi.
As expected, these words frightened Si Xueyi, and she looked at Lin Zan with a look of surprise and doubt.
"What did the emperor say when he gave me this carriage?" Lin Zan deliberately asked Bixia beside him, but his eyes were on Si Xueyi, observing her.
