two cold

When she stepped into the middle palace, Yan Yan took a breath imperceptibly, only to see Yin Ran who was reclining on the couch.

"You're here." Retired to Mishang Palace, Yin Ran spoke with a sluggish expression, but was stopped when he wanted to sit up.

"You just took out the stillborn baby, and your body hasn't recuperated yet, why don't you take a good rest?"

Yin Ran still had the strength to raise the corners of his mouth slightly. "If I don't send you over, are you going to pretend you don't know?"

"The servant is just a female official who manages the material library. There are many people who care about the empress."

"Really? Is there anyone else who cares about me?" Yin Ran's voice, as deep as the night, echoed in the huge palace. "I thought that everyone in the palace hoped that the palace could hang empty again."

"The middle palace can't be left alone for a day, I hope the empress will take care of the phoenix body." Yan Yan's tone was calm, as if she hadn't heard the extreme meaning of the words just now.

"You're still the same as before, always saying disappointing things." With fingers pinching the collar, Yin Ran's eyes also changed into another color in an instant. "Does Yan Shanggong know that Lan Zhen is pregnant with my second brother's child and will give birth soon."

Upon first hearing this, Yan Yan's demeanor was still as indifferent as when she first entered the palace, and she directly met her scrutinizing eyes. "Really? Help me congratulate Lan Zhen."

Yin Ran whispered: "Do you still remember our acquaintance before? In order to ask my second brother for my father's medicine money, I chased him to a brothel, and you also went to a brothel to meet Lan Zhen who had just become a geisha at that time. When we came to the brothel, who would have thought that we met in this kind of scene?"

After hearing the past, Yan Yan stood up abruptly. "Your Majesty, you are tired, and this servant will leave first."

"Yan Yan, have you forgotten what I said before?" Yin Ran propped himself up, and this movement threatened the atmosphere in the hall.Suddenly, his eyes were like fire, and the arrogance that was hidden so well on weekdays ignited like a flame: "I said that I want to get the most difficult thing in the world, and you know that I will do what I say."

Yin Ran put his hands on his stomach, and the last sentence was so soft that it made people chill.

"Even so, there is a price to pay."

Fearful silence spread throughout the palace, Yan Yan stopped and turned to look back, as if the fire could not burn out an invisible thin layer of ice around her body, she still said calmly: "It seems that the spirit of the empress has improved a lot, the servant girl left first. "

"──Just dance for me." Yin Ran said suddenly, pressing his right hand on his chest, and slowly leaned back on the couch. "People in Hanyang City only know that Yan's talented daughters are both excellent in calligraphy and painting—you can dance for Lanzhen, and dance for me."

All I got was silence.

"Forget it, I'm really tired, you can step back." Yin Ran slightly closed his eyes, as if he was really tired.

Yan Yan didn't advance or retreat, she just stood there and stared, waiting until the long eyelashes of the person on the couch hung down like a curtain, the coldness in her eyes disappeared silently.The same person who should leave with the indifference, Yan Yan stood up straight and stood on tiptoe, striding her steps like strings, spinning green shadows in the palace.

Only a circle of waves, the dance was silent, and finally ended quietly.

When the soles of the feet stepped back on the cold wooden board, the heart fell to the ground again.Yan Yan watched Yin Ran's lock of hair hanging wildly to her forehead, and the hand that was about to reach out was finally retracted into the sleeve, and she left the palace with a soft sigh.

Yan Yan always believed that there would never be anything more difficult than facing Yin Ran, but she held the cup of tea served by Shang Gong in the Empress Dowager's Palace, and she reflected the cup with a slight smile .

"The last time I saw Yan Shanggong was many years ago, right?" The queen mother had to sit on her right foot due to beriberi, and the kindness on her face hid the slight discomfort in countless wrinkles.

Yan Yan lowered her head slightly, and replied respectfully: "Your Majesty's beriberi is serious, and she specially summoned my maidservant to come here, and this maidservant feels hesitant."

"Your gentleness and modesty have always been the favorite of the Ai family. Back then, the Yan family's reputation as a talented woman spread all over the capital, and the Ai family even listed you as a candidate for the middle palace." The Empress Dowager's tone revealed a little regret. "If you are in the middle palace, you must take good care of the son, and you can also assist the emperor in handling the affairs of the harem."

"The slaves are terrified, but the slaves have no such blessing."

"Forget it. But Aijia heard that you have a very close personal relationship with the empress, and went to the palace to visit the day before yesterday." The empress dowager's tone was gentle, but it seemed as if a needle had been hidden inside. "Groups and cliques are the most taboo in the harem, but if wandering around Yanshang Palace can appease the Zhonggong, the Ai family would also be happy to see the Zhonggong have a close conversation partner."

"Thank you ma'am for the reminder."

After leaving the Empress Dowager's Hall, Yan Yan still hadn't had a sip of tea, so she could only sigh secretly, the Holy Grace from the upper hall really couldn't bear it.But I am afraid that this tea will be astringent and tasteless if it is forced into the throat.

Staying up in the middle of the night seems to have become Yan Yan's normal state, so she has no choice but to put on her clothes and wander around in the harem.

However, he saw two people standing in the gazebo from a distance, there was obviously affection in their eyes, but they were still holding on to one side, unwilling to take another half step forward.

"Seeing so intently, you really have a heart for Cui Shanggong."

Hearing the cold words from the rockery, Yan Yan didn't look back, she just said softly: "I just feel sorry for her."

"That being said, I feel the same way."

"Is this an apology for what happened today?" Yan Yan turned her head slightly, looking at the calm lake. "Go back quickly. Those maids should be anxious after being out for so long."

"I'll go back---" After a pause for a while, a voice sounded again in the dark night. "Is the mother embarrassing you?"

"No, the Empress Dowager is just as amiable as you." Yan Yan closed her eyes slightly, and said indifferently: "You have been here, and the Empress Dowager has looked for it. Is it time to change to the Empress Dowager next?"

"The Ningyue Yan family has a long-term relationship with the royal family, and it is important to speak in the court. No matter where you think about it, many people want to see you. But, I confirm your heart."

"Yin Ran, I told you I wouldn't help you."

"That day, why did you dance for me?"

Looking into the cave, all I saw was the dim ink color barely outlined by the moonlight, and words that would faint at the touch of a touch.

"That day, I had a crutch."

And the person I met in the gazebo the day before yesterday finally brought great waves to the court.The female doctor Chang Jin not only helped the Queen take out the stillborn baby as soon as she returned to the palace, but also made a bet with the Queen Mother and successfully cured the Queen Mother of beriberi.

She just sighed slightly after listening. "No matter how the chess pieces move, they are on the board. The chess players who are outside the chess pieces can do much more than the chess pieces."

The Empress Dowager wanted to save her hero Tian by threatening her own health, but Chang Geum resolved it. The victory of the Confucian School will undoubtedly push the confrontation between the imperial court to another peak. News, if Jang Geum can get in touch with Confucian scholars, this foreshadowing may turn rain into clouds in the future.In short, Jang Geum was drawn into this vortex again, so she should stand far away with flick of her sleeves.

"I'll teach you how to cook from tomorrow on. From now on, I'll spend more time on cooking, so I can't be with Si Lian all the time." She looked at Jing Feng lazily, but gave an unbreakable order.

"But……"

"The future is long, and it's not a bad thing to keep a little distance sometimes." She cut off Jing Feng's protest, but left the end of the sentence. "However, don't forget about sending persimmons to Li Shanggong's place."

"what?"

"If you send more, someone will send more."
