Lan Yun admired their ambition. They entered the palace to win favor, otherwise why would they enter? But they were afraid they didn't have the chance.

What matters is not the snowman, but the person who makes the snowman.

Lan Yun continued walking forward and entered the imperial garden.

A row of red plum blossoms were in full bloom in the imperial garden. Lan Yun picked a basket of them himself without asking Lin Pei and Tao Hong for help. He then broke off a few beautiful branches and went through the imperial study to deliver them to Wei Jingze. There was now a porcelain vase on Wei Jingze's desk.

After lunch, Lan Yun went to make plum cakes, and Wei Jingze could only lie alone on the bed in Chaohua Palace.

He felt uncomfortable lying alone.

Lan Yun had been sleeping with him these past few days, but today he slept alone and felt cold.

Wei Jingze lay down for half an incense stick of time, but he couldn't fall asleep, so he had to get up and go read the memorials.

Seeing that he was not in a good mood, Ye Zao whispered, "Your Majesty, how about Xuan Lanjun lie down with you?"

As soon as Ye Zao finished speaking, footsteps were heard at the door, and then Ye Zao and Wei Jingze heard Lan Yun's voice softly asking the palace maid.

"Has the Emperor rested yet?"

The maid replied, "Lord Lan, the emperor has just woken up."

Not long after the palace maid answered, Lan Yun came in.

Ye Zao saw Lan Yun coming in as if he had seen a savior. "Lan Jun, the Emperor..."

Lan Yun said, "You go out first, the emperor can rest for a while."

Ye Zao went out happily, and Lan Yun sat next to Wei Jingze.

"Zhiheng, take a rest for a while, okay?"

"Aren't you going to make pastries?" Wei Jingze said this with an unconscious sense of grievance, which made Lan Yun feel distressed.

Lan Yun took Wei Jingze's hand and explained in a gentle voice, "I've made some preparations, but right now it's more important to accompany Zhiheng to rest. I'll go make the pastries after Zhiheng goes to the imperial study."

Lan Yun coaxed Wei Jingze to lie back down, and he held Wei Jingze in his arms.

There was a faint scent of plum blossoms on Lan Yun's body. Wei Jingze sniffed it secretly. It was not only the scent of plum blossoms, but also Lan Yun's own body fragrance. It was really fragrant.

Wei Jingze thought he wouldn't be able to sleep, so he decided to lie down for a while so that he would be more energetic when reading memorials in the afternoon. However, he fell asleep soon after.

Wei Jingze got up half an hour later than usual this afternoon, which was extremely inconsistent with his usual self-disciplined image. However, Ye Zao saw that he was in good spirits and was very happy to go to the imperial study.

Ye Zao found it strange. Ever since Wei Jingze started to dote on Lan Yun, he had become visibly calmer. When he worked around Wei Jingze before, he didn't dare to say much at all, but now he didn't feel so nervous. At worst, there was still Lan Yun, right?

After Lan Yun sent Wei Jingze out of Chaohua Palace, he went to the small kitchen to continue his unfinished pastries. After about half an hour, Lan Yun went to the imperial study with a food box.

What surprised Lan Yun was that there were not only Wei Jingze and Ye Zao in the imperial study, but also a gorgeously dressed woman standing in front of the table, and it seemed that she had something to do.

Currently, there is only one person in the palace who dresses so gorgeously, and that is Concubine Rong Qi Rong.

This was the first time Lan Yun met Qi Rong. Qi Rong was in her early twenties, with an oval face, willow-shaped eyebrows, a quiet and leisurely demeanor, a temperament like orchid, and every move she made was full of classical beauty.

Qi Rong also looked at Lan Yun. His appearance was not particularly outstanding, not even as good as Lan Ci, but his temperament was very different. He had a noble air, and his eyes were particularly charming.

If they didn't look the same, Qi Rong would have suspected that the person in front of her was Lan Yun.

Lan Yun was just about to salute Wei Jingze when Wei Jingze spoke first.

"Is the cake ready?"

Lan Yun could only smile and nod at Qi Rong, expressing his apology for not being able to salute, and then walked to Wei Jingze with the basket.

"Yes, but isn't the emperor busy right now? How about I take my leave first?"

Qi Rong was very good at reading people's expressions. When Lan Yun came in, she noticed that Wei Jingze treated Lan Yun differently and took the initiative to say, "Lan Jun, I came here to arrange the family dinner for tomorrow's New Year's Day. Since this is the first time I've arranged such a large family dinner, I'm worried about making mistakes, so I came to ask about it. I've already asked."

Qi Rong bowed to Wei Jingze and said, "I'll take my leave."

Wei Jingze said "hmm" and Qi Rong walked out.

"Ayun, are you interested in managing the harem?"

Before Qi Rong walked out of the imperial study, she heard Wei Jingze asking Lan Yun this question and immediately slowed down her pace.

Lan Yun: "I'm not interested. Isn't the Imperial Concubine managing things well?"

When Qi Rong heard Lan Yun's answer, she had just stepped out of the imperial study. If Liu Yan hadn't quickly supported her, she might have fallen down.

Liu Yan looked at Qi Rong with a worried look on her face: "My Lady?"

Qi Rong waved her hand and said with difficulty, "Let's talk about it when we get back."

After hearing Lan Yun's answer, Wei Jingze explained, "Currently, there is no queen, so the imperial concubine is in charge."

Lan Yun heard Wei Jingze's hint. He thought for a while before answering Wei Jingze: "The imperial concubine is doing a good job, so let her continue to manage. I have more important things to do."

Lan Yun glanced at Ye Zao, who consciously retreated and closed the door of the imperial study.

Wei Jingze was curious about what Lan Yun was going to say, even Ye Zao couldn't listen.

After Ye Zao left, Lan Yun lowered his head and whispered his thoughts into Wei Jingze's ear.

If others said these things, Wei Jingze would just think it was a fantasy. Lan Yun said that it was quite a fantasy.

Lan Yun knew from Wei Jingze's eyes that he didn't believe what he said: "What's with that look, Zhiheng? Don't you believe me?"

Wei Jingze said, "Ayun's idea is good, but it's too difficult to implement. You've only practiced martial arts for a few days and you dare to think so."

Lan Yun snorted softly, "I will definitely make Zhiheng look at me with new eyes, and also let Prince Duan see that besides him, there is still someone in our Wei State who can bear the title of God of War."

Lan Yun was full of confidence, and Wei Jingze couldn't bear to discourage him, so he said a few words of encouragement.

Lan Yun thought Wei Jingze was really encouraging him. After seeing the food box, he remembered why he came here in the afternoon and reminded him, "Zhiheng, try the plum blossom cake I made. It won't taste good if it gets cold."

Lan Yun opened the food box, and a rich, sweet smell filled Wei Jingze's nostrils.

"Did Yun do this himself?"

Lan Yun said proudly: "Of course, I know a lot more."

He picked up a piece of plum cake and handed it to Wei Jingze. Wei Jingze took a bite and found it unexpectedly delicious.

Wei Jingze believed that this was made by Lan Yun himself, because the plum cake made in the palace and the plum cake sent by Lan Yun today tasted slightly different, and the plum cake made by Lan Yun was more to his taste.

Lan Yun even specifically asked, "What do you think Zhiheng? Is it delicious?"

Wei Jingze said, "It's delicious."

"Since it's delicious." Lan Yun tapped his lips: "Zhiheng, give me a kiss as a reward?"

The two of them had done the most intimate things, and now they were the only two of them in the imperial study, so Wei Jingze didn't hesitate and kissed Lan Yun.
