Chapter 72

"Your Majesty Tang is waiting in the outer hall...Miss, do you want to go out and meet?" Lan Ruo and Sang Yu glanced at each other, Su Yan was still calmly tending to the larkspur on the screen table.

"See, why don't you see me?"

Lan Ruo said again, "It's been half an hour...that Tang nobleman is pregnant, and I'm afraid that if something goes wrong..."

Only then did Su Yan get fully dressed, and opened the jade bead curtain, "Human life is a matter of heaven and earth, so it is not too much for her to wait an extra hour."

The fragrance of the jade case, the purple-gold painting screen, and the gorgeous and elegant main hall of the Yilan Palace are more elegant than the blind luxury of the Luoyu Palace.

Back then when the master craftsman designed the palace, it was Su Yan who drew the pictures and selected the materials herself. After the completion, even Duan Zhaoling admired her, praising her for her quality, blue heart, and ice-snow intelligence.

Su Yan glanced at her usually calm face, and when she found the expected anxiety, she sat down leisurely and ordered Lu Fu to serve tea.

The only person in the harem who has not changed, presumably only this nobleman Tang.

Wearing green clothes, a pottery xun, and a cold body.

In the blink of an eye, these years have passed by in a hurry.

Tang Guiren said, "I don't need tea, I'm here today, and I need Rui Zhaoyi's help."

It was not easy to hear the word "beg" from her mouth.

Su Yan smiled and said, "The Emperor is above, and Concubine Shu is below. What can I do to help Elder Sister Chu? I'd better go to Kunyuan Hall as soon as I've tasted my Biluochun Queen."

Tang nobleman lowered his eyebrows, bent his knees, and knelt straight down, "My concubine, please help Madam Zhaoyi."

Lan Ruo hurriedly stepped forward to help, but Su Yan finally put away her smile, "Stay back, I suddenly feel dizzy, I want to thank guests behind closed doors, Sang Yu, go and watch outside the hall, don't teach anyone to disturb my rest .”

When the hall was empty, Su Yan approached and helped her up.

"A person as lonely and arrogant as you would have such a humble attitude. If it wasn't for something wrong with your clan, then Lord Lu must be in trouble." Three years ago, Su Yan broke her private meeting with the new champion Lu Minxiu. Only then did they realize that they were childhood sweethearts, but they were separated from each other because of an imperial order, and they have been separated from each other ever since.

And the inscription on the pottery Xun that nobleman Tang never leaves his body is self-evident.

But Chu Xiaotang assisted with Ning Wenyuan's matter, so Su Yan went along with it, kept the secret for her, and took the power for her own use.

The greatest advantage of this Tang nobleman is that he does not invite favors and does not cause trouble, and his temper is rare in the harem, and he can always be clear in front of the desire for power. Su Yan admires this point.

"The case of Shen Yu has far-reaching implications. He is not someone who clings to the powerful. He was implicated in vain because of a blog post. The day before yesterday, he was accused of disobedience to the court... He is honest and loyal to the emperor. He was wronged. I beg you You save his life!" Tang Guiren knelt down, his stubborn expression was dimmed.

Su Yan thought to herself, just because you love him too much, and the officialdom is ups and downs, how can he still be the beloved in the past with his current status?

"As a concubine, he has already married another wife. What does his business have to do with you? You are kneeling and dying in this deep palace today, how can he be grateful?!"

Tang Guiren suddenly raised his eyes, "I did everything voluntarily, I just hope that he will be safe and peaceful in the future, I don't need anything in return!"

"Bo Xinglang, an infatuated woman from ancient times, it's useless for me to persuade you." Su Yan regained her composure, turned around and said, "If you want me to help you, you must show sincerity."

Tang Guiren heard the words, his pale face became brighter, "If you save him, my life will be yours."

Su Yan smiled softly, "What do I want your life for? As long as the life of the fetus in your womb is enough."

Tang Guiren was shocked, but when he understood, he choked up for a long time.

"Sister Chu doesn't have sincerity, so let it go, and I won't wade into this muddy water." Su Yan turned and left, but she grabbed the hem of her clothes from behind, "I have never cared about this kind of favor and child. If you want , take it away."

Tang Guiren's decisive face shocked Su Yan's heart, but she didn't stop, she just stuffed a pack of gold lace purse into her hand, "Approach Chen, and hide the powder between her fingertips , how to do it, I don’t need me to teach you. The rest of the things, I will arrange it properly.”

"She has already lost her family, why do you want to kill her?" Tang Guiren held her purse and hesitated for a moment.

Su Yan replied, "Either she dies or Lu Minxiu dies, you can only choose one."

Tang Guiren stood up slowly while supporting his stiff legs, "You will definitely get the result you want."

In a few days, Lu Minxiu was acquitted and released, while Shen Yu was scheduled to be executed at Meridian Gate seven days later.

As soon as the verdict came out, Duan Zhaoling closed the door of Kunyuan Palace for several days in a row. The control of the imperial power was ultimately above everything else.

Su Yan was not surprised that he made such a decision, but Su Yan understood his inner panic even more.

Repeated tragedies are happening every day, and there is nothing new about them.

According to reports from the palace people, that Mrs. Shen cried and cried all day in Luoyu Palace, asking to see the Holy One.

Later, my voice became hoarse, so I knocked on the door to ask for help. In the end, the door was full of blood marks, and the situation was miserable.

With no one in the daytime and crying at night, Luoyu Palace is not a cold palace, even worse.

None of the maids and wombs are willing to approach, and even passing meals come and go in a hurry.

Duan Zhaoling never went to see her, nor did he make any kind orders.

"Would it be good for Yan'er to accompany Duan Lang to Yumian Pond to relax? At this time, there is a singing banquet in the palace, and the sisters are all here. Duan Lang Quan can accompany Yan'er to watch the fun!"

Duan Zhaoling couldn't resist her soft words, so he obeyed her after all.

Cui Shangyi was delighted to see that the emperor was willing to come out of the palace to relax. It can be seen that the only one who can control the emperor's mind is Rui Zhaoyi.

Near the Jade Sleeping Pool, Su Yan felt dizzy and nauseous, and her body swayed from side to side in the sedan chair, which was even more unbearable.

"Stop for a moment..." Su Yan covered her mouth, Duan Zhaoling saw that her complexion was not good, so he hugged her down.

As soon as Su Yan's feet touched the ground, she immediately turned her head to gag.

"Go send the imperial physician over here." Duan Zhaoling hurriedly ordered.

Su Yan just wiped the corners of her lips and said, "It's okay, maybe it's because of the cold a few days ago, stomach discomfort, and now it's better."

With Su Yan's insistence, she still went to the Yumianchi Ge Banquet.

From a distance, there is a wonderful song, and looking up, there is a gauze curtain swaying on the water pavilion by the pool, and the elegant blue figure is faintly indistinct.

The melodious sound of a colorful phoenix flying piano is like a mountain and flowing water.

The Fengweiqin and the woman's gentle appearance complement each other, full of tenderness like water.

Lan Xiaoyi and Zhen Cairen were in the small seat together, "I heard that Han Chongyuan's birth is very similar to the former queen, but I think it's just based on appearance."

Zhen Cairen responded lightly, "Surface is also a blessing."

Lan Xiaoyi didn't take it seriously. Wherever she looked, she saw the emperor holding Rui Zhaoyi to share the flowers, and said, "It's strange to say, although Han Chongyuan gave birth to Princess Anle, the grace is not as good as nothing." The Rui Zhaoyi that came out has its own appearance, so it is not a long-term strategy."

Zhen Cairen glanced at Lan Xiaoyi's belly hidden under the loose skirt, "Sister Shangguan is very lucky. She was pregnant with dragon veins not long after she entered the palace. Her future is boundless."

Lan Xiaoyi's eyes were sharp, and she raised her chin slightly, "I only hope that I can give birth to a dragon son for the emperor. One day, I will be like them, with infinite glory."

Zhen Cairen smiled and said nothing, just staring at his cuffs in a daze.

"It's been a long time since I heard Qing'er playing the piano, she seems to be getting better and better." Duan Zhaoling helped Lin Qingqing who bowed to thank her. Since she gave birth to Princess Anle, her figure has also become much plumper, adding a feminine charm.

Su Yan took Xiao Anle from the wet nurse's hand, hugged her and teased her.

Lin Qingqing faded away from the shyness of a girl, and cuddled up to the emperor's seat gracefully. Today, Concubine Shu and others are not here, and the atmosphere is more casual.

I saw Lan Xiaoyi standing up from her seat, bowing politely, "The concubine has heard that Rui Zhaoyi has an extraordinary singing voice. Taking advantage of today's good banquet, I want to invite you to learn from the jade flute. I don't know if your majesty will allow it." ?”

Duan Zhaoling looked at her serious expression, couldn't help laughing loudly, and called her closer, "Yu'er is really temperamental, it always reminds me of when I was young, she was so straightforward."

Lan Xiaoyi was very proud of this compliment, so she said angrily, "Did Your Majesty know how to play the flute when he was young? Then the concubine should ask His Majesty for advice."

Duan Zhaoling smiled more cheerfully, "Okay, I feel happy now, Wang Zhongming, bring the green bamboo flute, and I will play a song with Yu'er."

Su Yan was grabbing Princess Anle's tender little hand, when she suddenly saw something hidden in her sleeve, she took it out casually, but her whole body was suffocated.

It was a piece of fragrant petals, which fell completely in An Le's sleeve, exactly what Su Zhi said!

But why did it fall on Anle, and the Yaolian Palace where Lin Qingqing lived did not have a Hanxiang tree...

"Yan'er, what do you want to hear?" Duan Zhaoling held the green flute in his hand, but Su Yan's gaze passed through him, fixed on Lin Qingqing who was standing beside him with a calm expression.

Even An Le cried a few times, she had never heard of it.

Could it be she who lured Su Zhi to the Forbidden Palace that day?

No... Su Yan didn't dare to think about it.

Lan Xiaoyi played the tune first, and Duan Zhaoling smiled as he handed the bamboo flute to his lips, and they both sang together.

This partridge sky cooperated very well, Lin Qingqing was intoxicated by Duan Zhaoling's gentle flute sound, and did not notice anything unusual.

Su Yan clenched her ten fingers, then stroked Duan Zhaoling's arm, "Listen, Duan Lang, what's the sound?"

Lan Xiaoyi was very dissatisfied when Su Yan interrupted her, but the low-pitched music in the distance was getting closer, and everyone turned their heads to listen.

Unlike any musical instrument, this sound is natural and unmodified, with the most primitive rhythm in the desolation, which makes people cry.

Duan Zhaoling put down the green flute, followed the source of the sound with his eyes, but saw a sad blue color standing beside the Jade Mian Pool.

The woman in green clothes holds a musical instrument in her hand, stepping on the water, growing lotuses step by step.

There was no trace of embellishment on the black hair on the temples, and the scattered strands of hair swayed with the autumn wind, as if all the spirit of beauty in the world were gathered between her eyebrows and in her hands.

That lonely and hesitant posture infected everyone.

Su Yan made eye contact with her, and saw nobleman Tang slowly put down the Tao Xun, staring at the emperor ecstatically.

"After hearing this song, I realized that everything I've heard in the past is like floating clouds. What song do you play?" Duan Zhaoling took her hand in person, and felt that it was extremely cold, so he covered the heat and said, "You are pregnant. You are pregnant, how can you wear such thin clothes? Later, I will ask Si Zhifang to add some clothes for you to keep out the cold."

Tang nobleman bowed lightly, "The concubine's family is in the north, and all the people of the clan play music with xun. Therefore, every time the concubine is homesick, she will play a piece. If I have to give this melody a name, I will call it Yulouchun. "

"Yulouchun," Duan Zhaoling chewed on these words, slightly distracted.

Su Yan's eyes were sad, and she said quietly, "The empress of the Southern Dynasty blamed the daughter of the guilty minister because of the fault of the minister. Later, the concubine who fell out of favor died of depression. Fortunately, she never saw the last face of her for decades. The Empress Dowager was worried and thought hard, so he climbed the tall building alone, facing the courtyard full of spring, and made this Yulouchun to pay tribute to the deceased."

Duan Zhaoling's eyes dimmed, and Su Yan sighed softly again, "I have to wait until I lose it, even if I sing all over the wind and moon, I can't get it back...Duan Lang, do you want to do the same? Yan'er doesn't want to see what you have left in the future Pity……."

"I can't sleep peacefully these days."

"Then let her be freed from her confinement. When Duan Lang is free, go and see her... One day husband and wife, one hundred days of kindness, is also her fate." Su Yan persuaded, and Duan Zhaoling asked, "She has always been with you. Why do you want to help her if you have a grudge?"

"A poor person must have something to hate. The concubine is not a saint, but she has a heart of compassion. No matter how the Shen family is, the Shen family treats Duan Lang with sincerity."

Duan Zhaoling was silent for a moment, as if he had made up his mind, "What you said is reasonable, then let her be restrained. As for the matter of exploring her, we will talk about it later."

Tang Guiren was still standing upright, when Su Yan wanted to speak, she felt her chest throbbing, she covered her lips, and retched.

Lin Qingqing came back to her senses, and hurriedly said, "Send the imperial doctor over!"

Under her eager eyes, Su Yan seemed to have noticed something faintly, but she didn't dare to think about it.

When she was lying quietly on the soft couch, her mind was empty.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, Congratulations, Your Majesty! This is the pulse of happiness, and this symptom of your Majesty is a sign of bad luck!"

The curtain was lifted vigorously, and Duan Zhaoling's ecstatic face came into view. He hugged Su Yan up, excitedly showing that he wanted to throw her up.

Duan Zhaoling was overjoyed, hugged Su Yan back and forth repeatedly, tossed and tossed for a long time before putting Su Yan down.

With his forehead resting on her soft belly, he murmured over and over again, "Yan'er, our child is finally here."
