The hall suddenly fell silent, everyone looked at the emperor's sullen face, and then turned to Qing Chen, even the rouge carefully applied on her face could hardly conceal her paleness at the moment.

Breathing seemed to suddenly become uncomfortable, Qingchen felt dizzy for a while, tried to calm down, drank the glass of wine in front of him, and left surprisingly without willfulness.

In the end, it was Concubine Jing who broke the calm.She glanced at the emperor slightly, and said with a slight sneer: "The emperor seems to be very irritable recently, we sisters have to be careful with our words, we may encounter the emperor's wrath at some point, and we can't bear to walk around."

The emperor glanced at her, the anger on his face gradually dissipated, and he scolded with a smile: "Just because of your tricky mouth, when have I ever been angry with you?"

Concubine Jing snorted slightly: "The emperor's long face sank, which sister should not tremble with fright? The concubine is no exception."

Everyone chatted and laughed, the matter of the child was easily dismissed, Qingchen just laughed it off, lowered his head and ate food silently.

Hua Ruo, who was standing by the side of the hall, suddenly saw Qingchen's body trembling slightly, fearing that she would catch a cold, he hurriedly took the cloak and put it on her body carefully.Qingchen stretched out his hand to take care of it, and accidentally bumped into Hua Ruo, Hua Ruo only felt that her hand was surprisingly cold, and hurriedly whispered: "Your Majesty is not feeling well?"

"It's nothing serious." Qingchen said in a low voice, "It's normal for it to be a little cold at night."

Hua Ruo had no choice but to return to the original place.

Qingchen silently drank a few more glasses of wine, then put down his chopsticks, and quietly listened to the people around him telling some innocuous jokes.Unfortunately, at this time, the queen mother wanted to go into the inner room to change her clothes, so she called Qingchen and went in together.

"Aijia remembers that you didn't like to dress up in the past. Today, being able to dress up like this to come to Aijia's banquet really gave Aijia enough face." The queen mother stood in front of the bronze mirror, looking at the restless Qingchen behind her, said with a smile.

Just now Qingchen came back to her senses, smiled lightly, noncommittal.

"As a woman, beauty is a good thing, but too beautiful may not be a blessing." The Queen Mother raised her hand and straightened her temple hair, "I know you are a smart woman, many things cannot be hidden from your eyes, but you can see clearly Is it true or false that the emperor is born?"

"Your Majesty? True love?" Qingchen muttered these two words for a moment, then sneered, "It's just nothingness. This is the real world. The courtiers and concubines still don't understand it, so how can they understand those moons in the water?" , a flower in the mirror."

The queen mother smiled slightly: "Then do you know why the emperor made you a noble concubine and treated you so indifferently?"

Qingchen was stunned: "The concubine is dull."

"Just eradicated Li Gelao's influence in the court, the emperor is already starting to deal with the Ninghou Mansion at this time, do you know?"

Qingchen's heart was slightly shocked, and his face became a little strange.

"The Ai family heard that there is some rift between you and Ninghou's father and daughter, but Haolai is also your natal family. You can just stand by and watch the entire Ninghou's mansion being eradicated, but can you remain indifferent?" Seeing that Qingchen said nothing, she He laughed again, "Even if you don't look at the Ning Mansion, you should take a look at what the Shangshu Mansion looks like at this time. Your cousin, the number one scholar, is currently in the prison. The emperor has made up his mind this time to make good and eliminate bad. I'm afraid that the Ningchu Second Mansion will be hard to protect."

Qingchen finally sensed something faintly, and looked at the queen mother.

"I'm afraid you came here for the emperor with the way you dress up today? With your temperament, it is rare to be able to bow your head and ask the emperor for help, but what happened? It is not your wise choice to ask the emperor." The queen mother sighed slightly. He took a deep breath, "The Ai family still has a son, and I can't let go of you. A few days ago, I heard that you fell off a cliff and got angry with the Ai family. You didn't enter the palace to pay a respect to the Ai family for two whole months. Presumably he didn't tell you about it. you?"

Xiao Yi?Qingchen was startled, then understood, and his face changed slightly.

Back in the main hall, it was the time when the banquet was in full swing, but everyone's eyes fell on the chief emperor and concubine Zhuang.Concubine Zhuang had already sat beside the emperor, snuggled into his arms as if no one else was there, and brought the wine in her hand to the emperor's mouth.

The Empress Dowager coughed slightly, Concubine Zhuang blushed immediately, and was about to get out of the Emperor's arms, but the Emperor held her hand and drank the glass of wine with her hand, before letting her go, said in a low voice : "It's been a long time since I heard Wan'er's piano sound, so I'd better play a few tunes tonight."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Concubine Zhuang smiled shyly and sat back in her seat.

After nearly an hour, the banquet just broke up.The emperor first left with Concubine Zhuang, and after they left, Qingchen took Hua Ruo and slowly returned to Yikun Palace.

However, when passing by a rockery in the Royal Garden, Hua Ruo noticed with sharp eyes that smoke and dust rose from behind the rockery.Qing Chen also saw it, and looked around the rockery, but there was a little palace maid kneeling there, holding some paper money in her hand, burning with sobs.

"It's really dead!" Hua Ruo snorted, "You are so brave, you dare to get these things in the palace!"

"Ah—" The little maid was startled, looked up, and hurriedly knelt down on the ground, crying: "My lord, please forgive my life, my lady, please forgive me! I have a sister who died of illness a few days ago and was used as a mat." Wrapped it hastily and threw it out of the palace. The servants were afraid that she would become a lonely ghost after death, so they burned some things here to pay homage to her, so please forgive me!"

The smell of the burnt paper money wafted from the tip of Qingchen's nose, and he frowned slightly, but after a while, he stretched out his hand, took the remaining paper money from the palace maid, asked her to take the fire pockets and lit them, and burned them one by one .

"Your Majesty!" Hua Ruo was shocked, "If someone sees it, it will be another incident!"

Qingchen didn't answer, still burning the paper silently, after a long time, she suddenly raised her head and asked the little maid: "Can a child who hasn't formed yet be burned like this?"

When Hua Ruo heard the words, she immediately fell silent, bit her lower lip and looked at Qingchen.

The little palace maid was slightly taken aback: "My servant heard from the old people in my hometown that when an unborn child is gone, it is gone, without a soul."

"Oh." Qingchen responded lightly, and murmured: "If it's gone, it's gone..."
