Where prosperity ends, flowers never end

Royal Palace

It was a sunny spring day, and the concubines were chatting as usual, and all the topics revolved around Ran Qianxi.

Those who are gentle and easy to get along with all envy her, while some who like to be strong-willed are always picky and annoying.

"Alas, some people are given the title of Imperial Consort when they are first promoted, and even before they are promoted to Imperial Consort, it's really the same person with different fates."

Concubine He glanced at Concubine Die and spoke timidly for Ran Qianxi.

"The Imperial Concubine has a good character, is kind and intelligent, so we should stop arguing."

Diepin glanced at her.

"You are so brave to speak to me like this."

"I am just being realistic..."

Diepin was so angry that she raised her hand to slap her.

Ran Qianxi happened to run into her, ran over and hugged her hands with a smile on her face.

"Hey, hey, hey... be careful, His Majesty will be angry if he sees this..."

Diepin glanced at her and took her hand back.

"Don't use His Majesty to pressure me."

Ran Qianxi still had a smile on her face, and her thoughts were hard to figure out.

"Oh...what are you saying...do I need to use him to crush you? Can't I crush you to death?"

Concubine Die was furious.

"What did you say!"

Ran Qianxi smoothed the hair on her forehead, raised her eyes and glanced around, and the concubines knelt on the ground instantly.

"I pay my respects to the Imperial Concubine."

Ran Qianxi smiled complacently.

"Look...we are all sisters...let's just be harmonious~"

Concubine Die was embarrassed but did not dare to act rashly. A higher-ranking official could crush a person to death, and the Imperial Noble Concubine was more than one level higher than the concubine.

"I will follow your instructions..."

When Ran Qianxi smiled, the master felt very frightened. It was clearly a smiling tiger.

"Look, you know that, don't you? Stop showing off~"

After saying this, he swaggered out of the Imperial Garden.

Lady He looked at her from behind with great satisfaction and respect.

"Sister, don't be angry. She is the Imperial Concubine."

Several people looked up, and Concubine Xie had the words "sowing discord" carved on their faces.

"Humph, she's not the queen, she's just a concubine, how is she different from us? I can't do anything to her, so is there no one to take care of her?"

Concubine Xie smiled triumphantly and left the pavilion.

Inside the royal palace, Baili Yong was handling government affairs while Concubine Wan was grinding ink nearby. Ran Qianxi unexpectedly felt jealous.

"You already have so many concubines, why do you have to marry another one? You're so idle."

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

None of the six words had a good tone.

Baili Yong suddenly looked up, then lowered his head again.

How could he be like Tan Qianhuan and Xu Yuanchao? He was neither gentle nor passionate, which made Ran Qianxi so angry that she gritted her teeth.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you!"

Baili Yong lowered his head and smiled calmly.

"Will it take some time before I enter the palace?"

"I have something to tell you..."

Baili Yong still didn't look up, which made her feel a little offended.

"I'm talking to you, can't you look up?"

"I can hear it without even looking up."

Ran Qianxi was already numbed by his anger. She had never seen such an arrogant person before, so she strode over.

"I'm going to talk now, look at me!"

Baili Yong put down the memorial with a smile and looked at her seriously.

"You said."

She was so cold just now, but suddenly she showed affection, and he finally understood the game of playing hard to get.

"I..."

Baili Yong smiled.

"Are you shy?"

"Why are you shy? I just put on too much makeup!"

Baili Yong still smiled with pampering.

"Okay, then you tell me."

"I'm going out."

"You haven't entered the palace yet."

Ran Qianxi glanced guiltily.

"I mean I want to go out and travel."

Hearing her thoughts like this, Baili Yong was obviously a little nervous.

"You want to escape from marriage? Don't forget, Ran Jiaquan..."

"Ouch! Did I say I was going to run away?"

Before Baili Yong could finish his words, he took them back.

"Then where are you going?"

"I'm going to Jizhou."

"What did you say?"

Hearing about Jizhou, Baili Yong stood up excitedly again and ran to her adoptive father's fiefdom. The idea of ​​escaping the marriage could not be more obvious. If she insisted on not getting married, Tan Qianhuan would definitely protect her and fight against the court.

"You're going to look for Tan Qianhuan?"

Ran Qianxi asked him tentatively.

"Can't I find him?"

Baili Yong was unsure. If a fight really broke out, the only ones who would suffer would be the common people. If he won, it would be fine. If he lost, both the country and Ran Qianxi would be his.

"What do you think? You are my Imperial Consort, not his Princess!"

Ran Qianxi had no intention of escaping the marriage, but Baili Yong spoke without thinking.

"What are you talking about..."

"What do you think I'm talking about?"

Ran Qianxi was confused.

"How should I know what you are talking about? How can I tell what you are talking about?"

Observing his worried expression, Ran Qianxi smiled smugly and was determined to disgust him.

"Oh my...my achievements are greater than my master's...my godfather is my support..."

Baili Yong remained silent, not knowing how to respond.

Tan Qianhuan was not a powerless civil servant, he was a prince of the previous dynasty, and he conquered more than half of Dachang.

"Look at your frown..."

Baili Yong glanced at her and sat down helplessly.

"Your Majesty, just obey me. I promise not to run away from the marriage. The Ran Mansion is still in the Imperial City."

Baili Yong looked at her again.

"I'm sorry you don't dare either."

Ran Qianxi smiled and hugged him from behind.

"I dare not, I dare not. Your Majesty is wise and wise. I am afraid, how can I dare to escape~"

Baili Yong was so overwhelmed by her persuasion that he didn't know what to do.

"When will we leave?"

"Well... tomorrow..."

Baili Yong was hugged gently by her, and his heart was already blooming with joy, but he pretended to be calm and picked up the memorial.

"Is ten days enough?"

“Enough…”

"Whether it's enough or not, I will come to pick you up in person in ten days."

Ran Qianxi was stunned.

"What? Don't go there in person. What if your stepfather gets scared by you?"

Baili Yong pulled her hand away.

"You really miss him!"

Ran Qianxi smiled lightly and started to act coquettishly again.

"My wise Majesty, you are too worried. I am only thinking about you~"

The love words were so clumsy, but they made him extremely happy.

"It's the best."

Ran Qianxi smiled softly and thought to herself, "Isn't this easy to appease?"

"Then I'm leaving~"

As soon as she stood up to leave, she was stopped by Baili Yong.

"and many more."

Ran Qianxi turned around.

"what happened?"

"You're not leaving until tomorrow, so stay tonight."

Ran Qianxi frowned slightly.

"Does it make sense? I haven't entered the palace yet..."

"What else is there to disagree with? I've already been lucky enough to see you."

When Ran Qianxi heard the word "Favored by You", her lips curled up to the sky.

"I favor you!"

Baili Yong smiled broadly, full of joy.

"Haha, yes, it's you who favors me~"

"Tsk, where do I live then?"

"Yifeng Palace."

When Concubine Wan heard the name Yifeng Palace, she could not stand still for a moment. That was the palace that was only used for the emperor's wedding.

"Ah? Can you restrain yourself a little? If you do this, I won't be able to survive for half a month..."

Baili Yong smiled lightly, his mind was made up.

"No one dares to touch you."

Ran Qianxi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Didn't he know that all the women in the harem were jealous of him?

"Today, a concubine was mean to me."

Ran Qianxi has never been a gentleman and will definitely report it to Diepin.
