Xiao Ran quickly agreed.Concubine Yi also sensed that the queen's expression was a little different, so she dared not say anything more, so she left embarrassingly.Xiao Ran told the Queen about the deal with Su Shun, and asked her to make the decision and finalize the year name of Xiangdi.Turn around and approve Prince Gong's papers for his trip, just wait for the devil to come.

The queen took down what he said, but she was worried about Concubine Li in the end, and looked at the door again, only to see that her eyes were tightly closed.His brows were deeply furrowed, and his face was completely bloodless.He had to tell Xiao Ran one more time before returning to East Nuan Pavilion.Xiao Ran couldn't help but sighed: Alas, Prince Gong and Sushun were about to turn the world upside down outside, and they didn't stop inside the palace. ***, if it wasn't for thinking about the plan to return to Luan.I really want to grab Concubine Yi and give her a hard fork to relieve my anger.

Seeing that everyone had dispersed, Liu Deliang dared to come over, and he must thank you a thousand times.Xiao Ran knew that he was very scheming, so he didn't say much, but dealt with it lightly.When he returned to Concubine Li's room, he asked the maids and eunuchs to retreat, leaving only Concubine Li and himself.Concubine Li was still soundly asleep at this time, with a lot of sweat on her face.The bangs on the forehead are all in locks.Xiao Ran took a towel and gently wiped it for her.Unexpectedly, she stretched out her hand in a daze, grabbed Xiao Ran's hand, and called vaguely: "Yun'er, Yun'er..."

Xiao Ran couldn't help a burst of sympathy.Yun'er is the baby name of the eldest princess. The reason why Concubine Li chose to commit suicide and entrusted Xiao Ran to hand over the secret edict to the queen after returning to Luan was of course for the only daughter, hoping that she would escape from Concubine Yi's grasp.Concubine Li in her sleep seemed to really see her daughter, her brows gradually loosened, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.Although this smile is extremely haggard, it still reveals an indescribable beauty, which is different from the dignity of the empress and the charm of the concubine Yi.It's really the color of the country and the city, but it's a pity that since ancient times, there are so many beauties and beauties like jade, how many people can die well?

When she was fast asleep, Xiao Ran gently pulled back his arm and looked around the room.On that day, Xianfeng often took a rest here, so although the room is not big, it is very uniquely furnished.There is a bronze mirror on the dressing table on the left hand side. It seems that it has not been photographed for a long time, and it is already covered with dust.Thinking that the maids avoid Concubine Li, they dare not come to clean.I brushed it away with my hand, but saw four poems written on it: Striving to pass on the daughter to marry the grandson, and only cross the Milky Way to wipe away the tears!But the heavenly family is thousands of years old, so why blame Nagato in this body?

Xiao Ran was taken aback, but fortunately, dust had accumulated.If someone looks at it, it will inevitably be another round of tongue-in-cheek.The word was written on it with a brush, and the ink was not very heavy, so I quickly wiped it off with the water in the basin.Accidentally knocked over a copper vase with a thud.Concubine Li woke up immediately, and whispered: "Who is it?"

Xiao Ran said: "Little Sanzi is here to serve you."

Concubine Li probably really woke up at this time, and she was stunned.

After a while, two lines of tears suddenly rolled down his cheeks, and he sobbed, "It was you who saved you...wouldn't it be good to let me go like this!"

Xiao Ran said: "Master, don't say such things. As long as people are alive, there is always hope. How can there be obstacles in the world? Besides, the princess is still young, you... can you really bear it?"

Concubine Li turned over, her face turned inward, her shoulders shrugged even more.After a long while, he said in a low voice: "I am an unknown person, I am afraid that she will be involved if she follows me. Sigh, although the imperial palace is big, how can it accommodate our mother and son?"

Xiao Ran has always had a good impression of Concubine Li, seeing her crying pitifully, he had no choice but to comfort her with gentle words.Ordinarily, with his clever mouth, he should be able to persuade others, but Concubine Li was determined to die, and let him talk dry, and shed tears silently.Xiao Ran said in his heart that this was not the solution, he couldn't just watch her by her side all day, and then go back to seek death, wouldn't it be the same trouble?

After pondering for a long time, he suddenly said: "Master, this slave is bold, may I ask you something?"

Concubine Li said: "You're welcome, just tell me."

Xiao Ran deliberately paused for a while before saying: "Dare to ask master, do you... really love Emperor Daxing?"

To be able to say this.That is really not ordinary bold.Concubine Li was modest by nature, so she was silent for a long time before she said: "Little Sanzi, your question is outrageous. If people hear it, even if I don't blame you, can you still survive?"

Xiao Ran hurriedly kowtowed, and said: "Master taught me a lesson. The third son suddenly remembered a story. I felt something in my heart, and I couldn't help but dare to offend for a while."

"Oh, what story?" Concubine Li couldn't help being curious for a moment.

"It's nothing, it's all vulgar things." Xiao Ran deliberately put it off.Concubine Li felt even more strange, and said: "There is no one else in this room, so you can tell me."

"Concubine." Xiao Ran organized his words a little bit, and began to preach a love story that has defrauded countless people from later generations to tears, "Once upon a time, there was a huge ship called the Titanic..."

This story can be long or short, Xiao Ran tried his best to bring out his language talent to the extreme, adding oil and vinegar, telling the story with spit flying all over the place.Concubine Li had a sentimental personality, and she had never heard of such a thing, it was really like a fairy tale, and she was fascinated by it unconsciously.He was originally lying on the ground with his face turned away, but later he simply let Xiao Ran help him up and leaned on the couch.The more you listen, the more spiritual you become.Probably because of the excitement, there was some anger on his pale face, and there was a little more sparkle in his eyes.

A story has been told for more than half an hour, and the damn ship was finally sunk.It is said that the hero and heroine have caught a piece of wood, but they cannot bear the weight of two people at the same time, and one of them is doomed to be frozen to death in the icy water.Concubine Li grabbed Xiao Ran's hand nervously, and said eagerly: "What happened later? They will definitely find another board, right?"

"Unfortunately not." Xiao Ran shook his head and paused slightly.Concubine Li let out a cry, tears streaming down her face, and she slowly let go of her hand after a while, and said in a daze, "Why? Why are things in this world always like this..."

Xiao Ran sighed: "Unfortunate things happen all the time, there are unfortunate people in the world. How can it be one or two?" After a moment of silence, he continued: "The two of them tried their best to climb up again and again, but fell again and again. In the water. The water was freezing cold, and Jack knew that both of them would freeze to death soon. The last time. He pushed Ruth onto the plank, and he was soaked in the sea water, slowly freezing to death. He told Ruth, to live, for the one she loves and the one who loves her, she must live well...

"Ruth just watched Jack slowly being frozen into an ice lump and sinking into the sea bit by bit. At that moment, she thought of giving up, lying quietly on the wooden board, waiting for death to come, waiting to be with her Her sweetheart was reunited in heaven. But at the last moment, she suddenly came to her senses and began to shout to the search and rescue boats with all her strength. In the end, she was finally saved.

"Since then, Ruth kept her name incognito and never mentioned this experience to others. She knew that this chance to live was bought by a person who loved her deeply in exchange for her own life. Only the brave to live Only then can the sacrifice made by the other party not be in vain, and only then can her lover smile in heaven.

"Ruth is just like an ordinary person, married and had children, and lived an ordinary life. After many years, finally one day, the wreckage of the sunken Titanic was found again, and the items on the ship began to be salvaged. The picture she drew made people guess who this woman is. There is also the heart of the ocean, which has never been found.

"With deep love for Jack, Ruth once again came to the place where the ship wrecked. At that time, she was already an old woman who was over seventy years old, and she calmly told people about that unforgettable experience. In a On a night full of moonlight, she wore a white dress and came to the bow of the boat just like back then, looking at the sparkling sea quietly. She knew that she had fulfilled Jack's last wish. Then, she took out She took the deep blue heart of the ocean, took all her memories, all her love, and gently threw it into the sea..."

When the story was finally finished, Concubine Li burst into tears, still immersed in the lingering sentimentality.Xiao Ran didn't say anything more, and silently withdrew.Liu Deliang has been guarding outside the door, hurriedly said: "How? Master, she..."

Xiao Ran shook his head and remained silent.Liu Deliang didn't dare to ask again.The two sat under the window, thinking about their own thoughts.After more than an hour, the sky began to gradually brighten.Xiao Ran felt that his legs were a little numb, and just as he was about to get up and move around, the door suddenly opened.A calm voice said: "Little Sanzi, I'm hungry, tell the stove to prepare meals. By the way, bring the Eldest Princess here too."

Li Fei didn't know when she had washed and groomed neatly, with a light amount of makeup on her face, her whole body looked brand new.In the morning light, it looks like a fairy in the sky, and the beauty is breathtaking.

Concubine finally all right.Seeing her appearance and complexion, including Liu Deliang, he breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time cast his eyes on Xiao Ran's admiration: "It's only for one night. Could it be that this Eunuch Xiao is a fairy who enlightened Concubine Li?"In the entire palace, there are probably not many people with such abilities.It seems that people who can see the divine bird are really different!

Xiao Ran felt relieved at this moment.What made him happy was that Concubine Li was no longer as polite as yesterday with him this time, she cared about her master's status when she spoke, at least it showed that she didn't treat him as an outsider.First sent someone to send a letter to the queen, the queen replied, telling Concubine Li to take good care of her, and there is no need to go to pay her respects.Xiao Ran was happy to be lazy with this for a while, after all he didn't sleep all night, he was really tired.

Breakfast came, but the eldest princess did not come.It turned out that she cried all night yesterday, and now she fell asleep in the back room.Concubine Li told everyone else to go down, leaving only Xiao Ran to wait on him.During the mourning period, the diet does not need to be extravagant, but porridge and side dishes are really exquisite.Xiao Ran couldn't help his stomach growling, Li Fei smiled and said, "Sit down and eat together. When there are no outsiders in the future, you don't have to be polite to me."

Xiao Ran wasn't that kind of polite character, he threw off his cheeks and chewed.Seeing how he was devouring, Li Fei pursed her lips and laughed non-stop, and kept picking up food for him.Among Xianfeng's concubines, Concubine Li is the most favored, one is because of her outstanding appearance, the other is because of her gentle character.In speech and demeanor, a kind of gentleness and delicateness unique to women are naturally brought out. "It's a pity that I married that tuberculosis ghost of Xianfeng!" Xiao Ran thought regretfully.

Eat too much breakfast.Xiao Ran wanted to say goodbye and go back, but Concubine Li refused to say anything.Said: "You haven't slept all night, but you are also very tired. My place is always quiet, and no one else comes, so you can take a rest here."

Xiao Ran felt a little panicked, and hurriedly said, "No way! I'm a slave. What kind of talk is this?"

Concubine Li couldn't help but push him on the couch, and said: "You are not from my palace, but you are so dedicated to me, I... forget it, I won't say any words of gratitude. I can't do anything else. What, if you still don't treat me as an outsider, what's the point of squatting here for a while?"

It's not good for Xiao Ran to refuse.Simply lie down.The brocade couch is soft, as if lying in the clouds, and as soon as it touches the pillow, a refreshing fragrance comes, and the mind is also relieved.Xiao Ran himself felt strange, lying on such a beautiful woman's bed, but he didn't think about those unbearable things at all, he only felt peaceful and warm.Tiredness hit, unconsciously fell asleep.

This sleep was extremely sweet, and he didn't wake up until the afternoon.The weather in May is already a bit dull.But lying here, I only feel the breeze blowing by, which is indescribably comfortable.Opening his sleepy eyes, he saw a slender figure sitting beside him, gently fanning him with a fan.Xiao Ran didn't think about it, he stretched out his hand in a daze, pulled her sleeve and said, "Sister, it's so comfortable..." Suddenly remembered: Damn, where am I?

After rubbing his eyes, he saw that it was Concubine Li, and felt extremely embarrassed.Concubine Li didn't feel anything, she smiled and said: "Little Sanzi, why do you think of your sister?"

"Slave, slave..."

"Don't talk like that, it sounds weird." Li Fei paused, then said softly, "If you think I'm like your older sister, you can call me older sister when there is no one else."

"Ah? This, this..."

"you are not willing?"

"No, it's not!" Xiao Ran became very shy.He coughed and said, "Sister..."

"Hey!" Concubine Li happily agreed, and said with a smile, "I am so happy to have such a clever brother like you!" After speaking, she sighed again, and said, "I used to have a younger brother, and I also have a younger brother." As handsome and smart as you, it's a pity that he got a serious illness at the age of 15, and in the end... Oh, forget it, let's not talk about him. Now I can have you as my younger brother, that is God's gift!"

As he spoke, he suddenly remembered something, got up and went to the box to take out a silver chain, and said with a smile: "Today I recognize a younger brother, as an older sister, I don't have any greetings. This chain was worn by my younger brother when he was a child. I'll give it to you now. It's not worth anything, so don't dislike it."

Xiao Ran glanced at it, and thought it was a longevity lock worn by a child, but when he took a closer look in his hand, he found that it was a dark subway card, square by an inch, with holes punched on both sides, and wearing a silver chain.On the front of the iron plate is a bear with its teeth and claws open, but on the back there is a strange pattern of twists and turns, which has never been seen before.Can't help wondering: "What is this? Longevity lock?"

Concubine Li said: "I can't tell. Anyway, it was passed down by my ancestors. I don't know how long it has been kept."

The iron plate has been rubbed very smooth, and one can tell that it is very old.Xiao Ran hurriedly said: "Since it is my sister's ancestral property, how can I..."

Concubine Li purposely put a straight face on her face and said: "Why, are you being polite with my sister? If you do this, my sister will ignore you from now on!" , Xiao Ran couldn't help staring blankly.Concubine Li blushed when she met his burning gaze, and said, "What are you looking at?"

Xiao Ran's blood surged up, and he blurted out: "My sister is so beautiful!"

Concubine Li was angry and funny, she stretched out her finger and tapped his forehead lightly, and said: "Not in shape! How could a younger brother say that about my elder sister?" While talking, she hung the chain on his neck in an upright manner , and stuffed the iron plate into the clothes.It was the first time that he was so close to her face to face, and when his slender fingers touched his body inadvertently, Xiao Ran couldn't help feeling a little distracted.But she said again: "Why is there a bandage around your neck, but is it injured? Untie it and let me see."

Xiao Ran hurriedly dodged, and said, "It's nothing, just a little injury, it will be healed soon!"

Concubine Li smiled and said, "Yo, I'm ashamed to say that!"

The two were talking, when suddenly a maid outside the door said: "The Empress Dowager Ci'an is here!" Xiao Ran hurriedly jumped down on the bed, and went out with Concubine Li to meet her.When the queen saw Concubine Li, before she knelt down, she took a step forward to help her up, and said: "Are you feeling better? You look good today. You scared all of us last night!"

Concubine Li was very ashamed and couldn't help but blame herself.Looking at her current expression, the queen is indeed relieved a lot.Concubine Li ordered the maid to make tea after she had to comfort her.The queen said: "No need, I just don't feel relieved to take a look, so I have to go back. There are a lot of troubles these days. I don't have time. After returning to Luan, let's have a good time."
