Passing through many palace gates, Princess An and her party got off the carriage in front of the main hall, and then walked all the way to the Imperial Garden under the guidance of the maids and eunuch leaders. The palace gates along this road are towering, and guards with swords are patrolling back and forth in all major palaces. Countless court ladies in a hurry walked through the palace, their heads half lowered, holding cups of tea and trays in their hands, and the eunuchs lined up in a row, passing softly along the veranda.

Xue Qingling only took a few casual glances from the corner of his eye, and he could feel the strict rules in the palace, which made him unable to help but get close to Pei Shu's body again.

Pei Shu knew that he was flustered, so he gently held Xue Qingling's sweaty palm, and rubbed his crotch regularly to relieve the pressure on him.

"Princess An, go this way. The Empress Dowager has already asked our family to wait here." "

Hey, this must be the eldest son, he looks so handsome!"

"Go this way." The man in blue The old eunuch squeezed out a wrinkled smile, and led the way with a hoarse and inflected voice. Princess An smiled and talked to him for a few words. When she turned around, a little maid accidentally bumped into her and was pulled up by him. There was a slap in the throat, "Walk carefully, don't disturb the nobleman."

"Yes, yes..." The maid cautiously stepped back with her head down.

Entering the imperial garden, the first thing you can smell is the fragrance of flowers. Under the eaves are the golden chrysanthemums that bloom at this time. There are clusters of flowers everywhere. This is a garden surrounded by flowers. There are clusters of flowers, obviously in the bleak autumn wind, but the flowers in front of you make people mistakenly think that it is spring.

Smelling the slightly intoxicating fragrance of flowers, looking at the colorful stamens in full bloom, and the petals of the budding flowers trembling in the wind, Xue Qingling suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

However, there are too many flowers, he has a keen sense of smell, and the smell is really strong.

Xue Qingling wanted to raise his hand to rub his nose, but felt that this action was indecent, so he finally held back, but at this moment, the person next to him grabbed his wrist, and a cool and peaceful breath flowed down his hand. Entering his body, it lifted his spirit.

Bypassing the strange pine and cypress rocks and walking on the colorful stone road, a group of palace people are surrounded in an orderly manner by the Qianqiu Pavilion not far ahead. The Empress Dowager is sitting in the pavilion and waiting for them. Looking at the queen and others, the queen mother has long since left with the late emperor and is no longer there.

Princess An led a group of children behind her to the Empress Dowager with smiles on their faces, and after saying a few sweet words affectionately, she brought someone to meet the Empress Dowager.

Concubine An was raised by the Empress Dowager since she was a child, and she was often brought in front of the Empress Dowager by her mother, otherwise she would not have gotten involved with that incarnate demon king An Wang. Wang An has been a fool and extremely assertive since he was a child. When he saw her, he made a fuss about marrying her as a princess in the future. Princess An looked down on this unscrupulous guy. She loved and hated this guy.

Wang An is a very favored youngest son. When he was a child, he was very clever and had a sweet mouth. Knowing how to please people, Concubine An was coaxed when she was a child and was being courted by the other party in different ways. When she was confused, she also agreed in her heart to marry An Wang in the future, but when An Wang became a monster, she would be so angry that she would never want to in this life See each other again.

When they were teenagers, the two had a big quarrel. Concubine An made up her mind to marry far away from Beijing. Wang An immediately became anxious and brought someone to stop her, "If you dare to marry someone else, this prince will dare to snatch the marriage!"

In the end, they were still together in a daze.

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar Imperial Garden in front of her, and the silver-haired Empress Dowager opposite, Princess An's nose was sour, and she couldn't help recalling the past in her mind. The former Empress Dowager was still very young, the dignified and beautiful Empress of the Central Palace, Wang An who ran around took her by the hand to catch and hide in the imperial garden, and was later bumped into by the eldest brother, His Royal Highness, the Prince, who was young and old He is very dignified when he is young, and he starts to teach his younger brother when he catches him. King An, who is not afraid of anything, is most afraid of his own brother, and he was criticized with his tail between his legs.

Times have changed now, things have changed.

Princess An felt a lot of emotion in her heart, and her eyes were slightly red.

Ever since Princess An and her party appeared in front of the Empress Dowager, Pei Shu could feel that the eyes of the people around him were all on him, and some were on Xue Qingling. When the Empress Dowager saw him, her eyes settled on him, and she couldn't move anywhere else. Although she was talking to Princess An, her eyes were always looking at him.

The appearance of the Empress Dowager is similar to what Pei Shu imagined, a dignified and graceful old lady, dressed in a dark and low-key court attire, with silver hair combed into a neat bun, although her skin has lost her youthful appearance. Moisturized, but the bones under the skin can still see the beauty of the other party when he was young.

She faced him with trembling hands, and said in an excited tone, "You are Jun Lan? Come here quickly and let the imperial grandmother see."

Pei Shu stepped forward with steady and strong steps, standing there straight, like a tall pine tree, The demeanor of the whole body is shocking, and the handsome face makes everyone present amazed.

"This child looks really good." The empress dowager had heard about the fake son before, and she was worried about whether the newly found son of King An and Princess An would be found on purpose for To appease her, an old man who is eager to see her grandson.

However, the first time she saw Pei Shu, she knew that the child's identity was definitely not false. The child's appearance was biased towards Princess An, but she also carried the shadow of King An when he was young. This child was even more beautiful than his parents. If this can be faked, where can her stupid son find such a handsome son.

Most of the people in the palace are used to seeing beauties. Among the concubines present here, they are not among the most beauties in the crowd, but when they see the person in front of them, they still have unconcealed surprise in their eyes.

The Empress Dowager was both happy and sighed. She thought that among her grandsons, Emperor Heng'an had the best appearance, but she didn't expect that his cousin was even better looking than him.

Why are Aijia's grandsons so good-looking?

Good-looking children are also worrying. I used to draft for Emperor Hengan with the Queen Mother, and found that most of the beautiful women were not as good-looking as the young emperor. This made the royal mother-in-law and daughter-in-law feel worried. At the same time, they were also grateful that their son (grandson) was growing up The probability will not be seduced by beauty.

After seeing Pei Shu, the Empress Dowager asked him to sit beside her and kindly asked him about his childhood.

The palace servants at the side also carried little Pei to the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager was even more pleasantly surprised when she saw this great-grandson. She hugged the little chubby boy in her arms very strangely, and smiled when she saw the little guy's fat face "This kid really looks like his father."

Little Pei was held in the arms of the honorable empress dowager, with big black eyes open, and a chubby little face that was extremely calm and leisurely. Zai spits bubbles, and when he is happy, he yells, revealing two tender and healthy white teeth.

After meeting her grandson and great-grandson, the Empress Dowager noticed her other granddaughter-in-law, Xue Qingling. She already knew the identity of the other grandson. The Empress Dowager, who did not know how much salt she had eaten in her life, knew the deep relationship between the two.

If Princess An could bring this person to see her, the Empress Dowager knew that her daughter-in-law was also satisfied.

This pair of children looks beautiful, looks elegant, and is quite attractive. The empress dowager called people to come to her and asked a few words, took a jade bracelet from her wrist and put it on the opponent's hand herself. Now, the empress dowager's attitude is already clear, and the other concubines are much more cordial when speaking to Xue Qingling.

Xue Qingling immediately felt a lot more relaxed, thinking that entering the palace is nothing to be afraid of.

He couldn't help but looked up at Pei Shu, only to find that the other party was also looking at him with a smile. Xue Qingling swished, and his cheeks began to burn again, but he hoped that his skin would be thicker, thicker, don't Turning red...

Today's early court ended relatively late. The emperor's uncles came to Beijing. Emperor Heng'an naturally wanted to show his concern in the court hall. The ministers discussed for a long time before the meeting was finally adjourned. After the adjournment, Wang An called out his bad luck. If he had known earlier, he would not have come. He stood dryly all morning, so he might as well accompany the concubine and grandson.

After the court, King An was also led to the imperial garden.

When Emperor Heng'an stood up from the dragon chair, he suddenly felt a swollen waist, as if the swollen waist was no longer his. When he was indulging in government affairs before, he still couldn't feel the soreness. Now when he stood up, It just killed me.

Obviously he is only twenty-eight years old, still very young.

When he walked out of the main hall, Emperor Heng'an suddenly remembered that before the court this morning, the empress whispered in his ears to persuade him to visit the harem more in the future. His virtuous empress always reminded him that the rain and dew are equal. Apart from his three sons and two daughters, there are already many people in the palace. For three or four years, no prince or princess was descended, and the queen always persuaded him about this matter.

He is a queen who is too virtuous, never willing to be favored alone, and manages the entire harem in an orderly manner, and there are very few fights for favor, because the queen's distribution is very even, and he established rules when he was still the prince. Only stay at the queen's place for three nights, and the other twenty-five days must go to different concubines. The same concubine should not exceed two days at most. After all, no one can overtake the queen.

Emperor Heng'an respected his queen very much, and would not do anything that would make her lose face, even if he loved any concubine, he would never spend more than two days in the other's palace in a month.

...

but...

Emperor Heng'an supported his waist and swallowed his saliva. Whenever he mentioned the Linxing harem or something, he felt a little apprehensive.

In recent days, he didn't want to go to any of his concubines' palaces, and thought it would be better to stay alone in the imperial study and sleep. If you go to the concubine's place, it's okay to just drink tea and chat. Seeing a beautiful woman makes you feel refreshed physically and mentally. It's fine if you don't do that kind of thing, but how can the concubines agree to this? The emperor only stays with them for two nights a month at most. Generally, concubines who are not very favored will be fine for one day, so how can they not think of ways to let His Majesty be lucky with them.

Emperor Hengan likes Concubine Kang's temperament, but if he goes to Concubine Kang's palace, she will definitely pester him for a few times, so that he doesn't want to go now, and would rather go to Concubine Jing. Concubine Jing has a daughter. Loves to compete for favor, every time I go to her place to have tea and play chess, each sleep under their own quilts, a good night's sleep.
