Comprehensive wear purple

Chen Lan thought Zhao Xi was joking at first, but at dawn the next day, news came from Xiangluan Pavilion that Madam Zhang was sick again.

When the news reached the East Palace, Chen Lan and Zhao Xi were having breakfast.

At first, the four maids that Chen Lan brought from the Sheng family took the initiative to wait until the master finished her meal before telling her quietly.

Unexpectedly, they did not stop this matter, because Li Xian, who was beside Zhao Xi, immediately reported it to his master as soon as he got the news.

Chen Lan was somewhat shocked to learn that Concubine Zhang was actually ill today, just as her own prince had expected.

But after the shock, she was deeply disappointed with her maids. She sighed and sat there quietly eating without saying a word.

Zhao Xi frowned slightly when he saw this, and consoled them, "Since they are not smart enough, just replace them. People's abilities are not something you can cultivate just because you want to. Relax your mind. If you don't have any useful people, I can send a few to you."

After hearing what Zhao Xi said, Chen Lan did not feel embarrassed. After all, her family background was just that. If Nong Xia and the others were still working for a family like the Sheng family, their abilities would be sufficient, but now in the inner courtyard of the palace, they are still a little insufficient.

Chen Lan nodded with a smile, "Your Highness, I will never let you down. Why don't you send me the maids you prepared first? When I have enough, the sisters will be old enough to get married."

Zhao Xi had no objection to this. After all, as the crown prince of a country, he might lack everything, but he had no shortage of capable people. It just depended on whether she would use them.

After the young couple finished their meal, Zhao Xi went straight to Chuigong Hall where his father handled government affairs, while Chen Lan, with her maid, hurried to Xiangluan Pavilion to visit the patient.

Although Concubine Zhang was only a concubine, she had lived a more luxurious life than the emperor's wife over the years because of the emperor's favor.

Although as the Crown Princess, she was not required to visit her sick stepmother, it was okay for her to send a servant to show her appreciation.

But she just heard yesterday that this "young lady" in her husband's family was dissatisfied with her, and today she didn't care that she, the Crown Princess, had just married into the family, and she was loudly claiming to be sick. If she didn't respond, it would be unacceptable.

When they arrived outside Xiangluan Pavilion, Chen Lan politely brought his men and stood outside waiting for the servants to pass on the message.

Although the people in Xiangluan Pavilion were not used to following the rules, they still took the Crown Prince's face into consideration and did not make things too difficult for him. They welcomed the Crown Princess respectfully.

Chen Lan was a little surprised when she walked in. How could the famous Concubine Zhang, who was usually a "smart person" who dared to compete with the Queen, be let in so easily?

Chen Lan had no idea that Concubine Zhang, who she thought had suddenly made great progress in palace fighting skills, had already fallen into a coma due to illness and had no ability to find fault with her at all.

The most capable aunt in charge of Xiangluan Pavilion was unwilling to create such a powerful enemy of the Eastern Palace for her master's reputation.

Therefore, this one-sided palace fight, which could have resulted in some exciting moves, ended in an easy victory before it even began.

After entering Xiangluan Pavilion, Chen Lan was led into Madam Zhang's bedroom. Looking at the pale-faced imperial concubine lying on the bed, Chen Lan's spirit of being ready to fight at any time suddenly collapsed by half.

He lowered his voice and gave a few instructions to the palace maids and eunuchs of Xiangluan Pavilion. Not wanting to be bored here, he left some gifts and returned to the East Palace with his people.

After returning to her own bedroom, Chen Lan thought more and more that something was odd. She had only been married for two days, and the most honorable queen in the palace had been captured, and the most favored imperial concubine was sick. She couldn't help but begin to doubt herself.

"Could it be that I have the attribute of being a jinx? If so, then that would be great. However, I cannot let anyone pin these two incidents on me. What should I do..."

I have to say that Chen Lan's imagination is a bit wild, but she really didn't wrongly accuse herself in this matter, because those two were really circled and got sick because of her.

After Zhao Xi had "been filial" to his father and successfully made him feel overwhelmed, he returned to the East Palace with great satisfaction. As soon as he entered the door, he saw his little wife sitting there eating snacks bit by bit, wondering what she was thinking about.

"Your Highness, how can you eat so much? Your breakfast is exactly the same as mine, a martial artist. Only an hour has passed, and you've already finished a large plate of snacks."

He lifted his robe and sat directly opposite Chen Lan, then said, "Luckily you married me, otherwise, not to mention whether others could afford it, even if they could, I believe it would scare away many people."

After hearing this, Chen Lan felt that her self-restraint could be lowered a little, so she tried her luck and said, "I haven't done anything yet. I just ate a few more snacks, and you already despised me."

"I am still so young, and it is inevitable that I have some shortcomings in dealing with people. What you should do now is not to laugh at me, your wife, but to help me gain a foothold in the palace as soon as possible."

Zhao Xi nodded in agreement. Only when this little girl gained a firm foothold could he go to the battlefield without distraction. Even if she was not in a hurry, he would get everything done before the beginning of next spring.

Seeing that his wife was very bored, Zhao Xi took her to the study, picked up a few books and handed them to her. After making her sit on the couch in the study, he sat at the desk and continued to study the art of war.

Time passed by minute by minute. After almost half an hour, Zhao Xi put down the military book in his hand. Suddenly he thought of something and looked towards the small couch. He saw his wife sleeping soundly.

He walked over quickly and covered her with the cloak, then slowly sat down and gently touched her little face. Feeling the expected coolness, he hurriedly carried her to the bedroom.

When they arrived at their bedroom, Zhao Xi took off Chen Lan's shoes and socks while sending a maid to make ginger soup. As for calling the imperial physician, he didn't need to give any instructions, as the chief eunuch of the East Palace went to invite him personally.

Zhao Xi wasn't making a fuss. It was just that in the autumn in Tokyo, one could easily catch a cold if one was not careful. He couldn't help but be nervous.

Fortunately, after the imperial physician took the Crown Princess's pulse, he said that she was in very good health. If she was really worried, she could just drink two more bowls of ginger soup.

Looking at his wife with rosy cheeks while sleeping, Zhao Xi was almost mad at this careless little girl. He pinched her little nose deliberately, and then let go reluctantly when he saw his wife open her little cherry lips.

"Alas, you are such a sleepy and careless little fellow, can you really support the entire East Palace and even the harem while I am away on a campaign?"

Naturally, Chen Lan, who was sleeping soundly, could not give him an answer. Zhao Xi stared at Chen Lan's sleeping face for a while, then looked at the sky outside, and then took his sword and went to the martial arts field.

Obviously, the young couple both missed lunch as expected. In the afternoon, one of them woke up slowly from his dream due to hunger, and the other quickly washed up after returning from the martial arts field. Then they sat down at the dining table almost at the same time.

The two of them finished their dinner in silence and lay on the bed facing each other in silence for about a quarter of an hour before Zhao Xi slowly spoke, "Tomorrow is the day you are going to return home, so we have to get up early, otherwise you will get anxious and blame me."

"Also, you should be mentally prepared. Things are about to change in the palace. You should pay attention to these first."

Although Chen Lan didn't quite understand what was said, she nodded pretending to understand, fearing that if she was slow, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would think she was not smart enough.
