Chapter Eighty-Nine: Portrait

In Jinyin Palace, Xia Er's whispered complaint came in through the crack in the door, and then stopped abruptly. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 The info door squeaked open from the outside, and Xia Er and Qiu Er walked in softly with their heads down and a tray in their hands.

Yuan Wan turned her back to them, the silhouette in the candlelight was exquisite, but it was so quiet that it didn't seem like a real person.

"Niangniang - why are you holding this jade pendant in a daze again!" Xia Er is a lively character, what to say. It stands to reason that a girl like her will not live long in the palace, but fortunately, she was originally a lowly palace maid, and she couldn't meet any nobles, and the aunt in charge was a good person, which allowed her to meet her without any opinions. Yuan Wan saw that she had a likable temperament, so she left her down.

Qiu'er saw that Xia Er was out of proportion when she spoke, her expression was unhappy, she was specially sent into the palace by her wife to accompany Miss, the family in General Yuan's mansion...... Alas, I don't want to! It seems that she still has to teach Xia Er well. Although Niangniang is now protected by the emperor, it is still difficult to guarantee that she will be taken advantage of.

Xia Er received Qiu'er's warning eyes, her body shrank, and she immediately looked at Yuan Wan with tears in her eyes. Yuan Wan sneered and scolded Qiu'er softly, "Don't be too strict, she's still a child—"

Qiu'er replied seriously: "Niangniang - the heart of the palace is sinister, before we enter the palace, Mrs. told Qiu'er to take good care of Niangniang." Since Niangniang was pregnant, Qiu'er has been worried all the time, Qiu'er ......"

Xia Er was speechless and walked around behind Qiu'er and stretched out her hand to cover her mouth, and said with a smile: "Okay, Sister Qiu'er, how many times have you said this, my mother's ears and I are almost hearing the cocoon, how can you say so terrible in the palace, don't you see that I am living a good life?" ”

Qiu'er took her hand and nodded her eyebrows, "That's your luck~"

Xia Er grimaced at her and joked: "Sister Qiu'er, if you continue to worry about it like this, be careful that no one wants to become an old woman~" After speaking, she hid behind Yuan Wan. Qiu'er's face turned red instantly, and she didn't know whether she was angry or ashamed, she reached out to grab her, "Dead girl, you come over to me-"

"I don't, I don't-"

"Hurry up—" Qiu'er wanted to catch Xia'er, but she was afraid of accidentally hurting Yuanwan, so that she escaped every time she was about to catch the dead girl.

Yuan Wan watched them quietly, and bursts of laughter came from time to time in Jinyin Palace.

The emperor stood outside the main hall, stretched out his hand and made a silent motion, and the palace maid next to him immediately lowered her head. He personally pushed the door and walked in, and when he walked inside, Xia Er saw the bright yellow dragon robe looming behind the screen. She immediately knelt on the ground, "Meet the emperor!" Qiu'er also fell to the ground.

Yuan Wan got up and said with a smile: "Why is the emperor naughty, he has to be reported when he comes in, so that the concubines can prepare to prepare-"

The emperor walked out from behind the screen and laughed loudly: "Isn't this trying to surprise the concubine, who knew that the maidservants in the concubine's palace were so alert." After speaking, he glanced at Xia Er as if he had nothing. Yuan Wan walked over and helped him sit down, glanced at Xia Er and smiled softly: "This emperor has mistaken her, this girl is usually clumsy, and she is really not alert, she just happened to be facing the screen, and it is most normal to see the emperor!" ”

"Okay, I'm kidding! If you like it, you can keep it, but ...... You are pregnant, you must no longer be as willful as before, be careful, I will send some more people to protect you-" The Emperor reached out and patted the back of her hand, but accidentally touched the jade pendant in her palm, "This is ...... The jade pendant your mother gave you? ”

Yuan Wan nodded.

The Emperor then asked, "Is Concubine Ai homesick?" ”

Yuan Wan shook her head slowly. The emperor laughed and said, "You are the only one in the world who dares to lie so blatantly in front of me - but if you are really homesick, how about I allow you to go home and save your family?" ”

Yuan Wan was shocked, in addition to panic in her eyes, there was also a trace of reluctance, but she still shook her head. The emperor smiled even more happily, "You, you, tell me, when will you be afraid that your brother's problem will be fixed?" ”

Yuan Wan's elder brother is the current General Yuan, who is Yuan Xiu's father. It is rumored that Yuan Wan has been very afraid of her brother since she was a child, and as long as she has the opportunity, she will definitely not be under the same roof as her brother. So Yuan Wan was raised in her mother's maiden family before entering the palace.

She didn't speak, just buried her face in the man's chest, as if she was shy.

Qiu'er and Xia'er glanced at each other and quietly retreated.

Leng Wang's Mansion, Study.

Leng Lichen sat at the desk holding a book in his left hand, quietly turning the pages under the light. Suddenly, as if sensing something, he put down his book, stood up, and walked towards the window.

"Squeak-"

The two looked at each other......

Shen Mo said calmly: "Your martial arts have improved again, I thought you wouldn't notice me!" ”

Leng Lichen opened the door for her, and said with a smile: "I couldn't have noticed it, but because it's you, I can recognize it-"

Shen Mo's body stiffened after hearing this, no matter how she heard it, it sounded like love words, she quietly looked at his face, she couldn't see a trace of flaws, she was calm, maybe he really just wanted to express the sound that he remembered her steps!

In order not to let the atmosphere continue to stiffen, she directly stated the purpose of her visit.

Leng Lichen quietly looked at the portrait of the man in his hand, and there was no trace of waves in his eyes.

"Do you know this ——? man?" Shen Mo couldn't help but ask when he looked at his calm appearance.

"Mu Xuan—" He refolded the portrait and handed it back to hers, "Yuan Wan's lover!" ”

Shen Mo was a little surprised, but also a little understanding. In this way, everything can be explained. For example, why was the expression on Yuan Wan's face mixed with helplessness when she said that she was pregnant, and why did she obviously owe her a favor but she didn't use it to protect her child, haven't the women in the palace always been more expensive than mothers? Now everything is clear. Perhaps, she didn't plan to keep that child at all! The coldness of the dust—

Shen Mo looked up at him.

Leng Lichen looked at her and said, "You want to ask me about exchanging conditions with him?" That's right - everything was calculated by me! Yuan Wan likes Mu Xuan, of course she won't keep that child, if that child is gone, then what I promised him will naturally be invalid! He thought that this would push me into a corner, and then I would use it for him to protect the woman he loved, but he never thought that his beloved would hate him so much! ”

"Enough! I'm going back-" Shen Mo interrupted him urgently, she took a serious look at the somewhat crazy man in front of her, and for some reason, a sense of loss filled her heart.

"Mo'er—" Seeing her turn around, Leng Lichen stopped her.

Shen Mo stood still, but did not turn around.

"You don't have to meddle in this matter, Yuan Wan handed over the portrait to you just to show me his attitude through you, you ......"

"I see." She smiled sarcastically, she didn't expect that she had always been at ease in intrigue and intrigue was just being used. She straightened up and walked out. The breeze ruffled her dark hair, and the blood-red headband swaggered wildly in the night. That's the mission, isn't it?

Leng Lichen looked at her departing figure steadily. He counts all the world, but he can't count her heart!
