My hand holding Xiao Nianshen stiffened slightly, and I looked up at the open courtyard door behind Kuo'er, but no one walked in there. Everyone was waiting outside, and the huge cold palace suddenly became so quiet.

The noise is gone.

A quiet and melodious voice said calmly: "I am here to see the eldest prince."

This voice is——Chang Qing!

I frowned slightly and looked at the door. Kuan'er was still standing there looking at me stupidly, but Chang Qing's voice had already sounded outside: "Kuan'er, where is the eldest prince?"

Only then did Kou'er react and said hurriedly: "Go back to the Queen, the eldest prince is right here."

"Oh?"

As Kuan'er said, he glanced at me again, as if he was seeing a ghost. Maybe in their eyes, I should have been dead long ago. At least, I should not still appear anywhere in the palace.

, but now you see me sitting at the door alive, with my thin hand still holding Nian Shen’s hand, which is even more unbelievable.

I thought about it, let go of Nian Shen's hand, and patted him gently. At this time, he was also frightened, and his face turned slightly white. I whispered: "Go quickly, the Queen is here to find you."

”

"Oh..."

He agreed and turned around to walk out. Chang Qing, who was separated by a wall, seemed to be planning to walk in, but he immediately heard the voices of the nuns: "Empress, you can't go in."

"Huh?" Chang Qing's voice was still calm, even with a little smile: "I can't enter this palace? Is there a place in this palace that I can't enter?"

Those nuns didn’t dare to speak.

After a moment of silence, it seemed that Chang Qing was about to go in again. The nuns knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Empress, you really can't go in."

"Please forgive me."

"The slaves are under orders not to let anyone in."

At this time, Xiao Nianshen had already walked in front of Kuan'er, and Kuan'er hurriedly held his hand. Listening to the words of the nuns outside, he looked at me with an even weirder expression on his face. Chang Qing was still smiling,

He said calmly: "Who gave the order not to let me enter?"

"..."

The nuns were mumbling and didn't dare to talk to each other easily. At this time, a clear and beautiful voice suddenly sounded, breaking the calm around them.

"It's the Emperor."

What followed was the sound of chaotic footsteps and a somewhat domineering momentum. As soon as I heard this voice, I couldn't help but sneer at the corner of my mouth.

It seems that although Chang Qing is so indifferent to the things in the harem, so indifferent that she is almost aloof, it does not affect the nervousness of others towards her. She has just stepped in, and Nangong Lizhu has already noticed it.

The attention of Jingren Palace is no less than that of Chonghua Palace.

I was sitting at the door and heard the group of people walking outside the small courtyard. Nangong Lizhu said: "I have seen the queen."

"It turns out to be sister Li Fei. You are inconvenient, so why are you here."

"I heard that the queen came to see the eldest prince, so I came to take a look. However, the emperor has already ordered that no one is allowed to approach this courtyard, so the queen should not go in."

"Oh? No one is allowed to come near."

"Yes. This is what the emperor ordered his concubine to do."

"Oh..."

Chang Qing seemed to also smile, without a trace of sullenness in her voice, and said calmly: "In that case - Kou'er, bring the eldest prince out."

When Kuan'er heard this, he hurriedly took Xiao Nianshen out. Xiao Nianshen was standing at the door just now, listening to the conversation outside. His little face was red and white, and he seemed to be thinking a lot. Just as he walked out

After that, I heard him say: "Mother, my sons and ministers pay their respects to the queen."

"Nian Shen, how can you run around in the palace? Your mother is worried about you."

"Mother, sons and ministers - sons and ministers just come here to visit grandma."

"Grandma...?"

"Yes, Queen Mother. Grandma is locked up inside. She is a very good person. Queen Mother, please ask Father to release Grandma, please?"

Chang Qing remained silent and did not speak, but Nangong Lizhu smiled and said softly: "First Prince, your father is the one who makes the decision on these matters, so don't worry about it. Today is your birthday, and your queen mother and everyone have prepared it for you.

We have received a lot of gifts, let’s go back quickly, otherwise your father will be angry.”

There was silence again outside, and Nianshen's pitiful voice sounded: "Mother..."

Chang Qing still didn't speak or leave. I don't know what she was thinking in this silence. However, Nangong Lizhu smiled a little uncontrollably and said: "Queen, let's go back, the emperor is going to be angry -

—"

As soon as I finished speaking, I heard a burst of footsteps in the distance. There seemed to be quite a few people.

Before anyone arrived, the overbearing arrogance had already arrived. I sat at the door and smiled lightly, and then I heard a soft and charming voice saying with a smile: "I have met the queen."

When I heard this voice, I clenched my fist hard.

"Sister Shen is here too?"

"I heard that the eldest prince was missing. I was worried and took people to look around. I didn't want to see the queen and sister Li Fei here, so I came over to have a look. Your highness, the eldest prince, today is your birthday. Why is it so messy?

Came here? Is there anything in here?"

"Sister, please don't go in. This is the emperor's decree. No one else can go in."

"Others? Huh, I want to know who the others are and who they are not."

"Haha, sister can ask the emperor about this. The emperor's will is passed down to me by my sister, but whether others listen or not is their business."

I sat at the door and listened to those silvery bell-like voices, the soft and melodious voices of warblers, which should have been very pleasant to the ears - all of this, although there was a slight deviation from my plan, had almost reached my goal.

The purpose should have been to be relieved and happy, but now listening to those voices, I just feel an indescribable disgust.

Just when the two women were confronting each other with glances and words, and my disgust was about to reach its peak, a voice came from far away——

"The Emperor has arrived!"

As soon as this voice came, the people outside seemed to be a little panicked. I could faintly see that the faces of the maids and maids kneeling on the ground turned pale, and the old aunt lowered her head and looked at me, and then looked at me.

Looking at the person standing in front of her, cold sweat dripped down her face.

Finally, here it comes...

When I heard those words, my heart slowly started to tighten, and I sat at the door with a slight frown.

It seemed that he was not the only one who came, but also some other concubines. The chaotic footsteps completely broke the silence in the cold palace, and those familiar voices rang out, asking for greetings and asking for forgiveness. They all came up at once. I

Sitting in the door separated by a wall, listening to the sounds that once filled my life, I felt as if I had entered a nightmare.

"I pay my respects to the Emperor."

"Get up quickly."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"What are you doing here?"

"Back to the emperor, I sent people to look for the eldest prince and found this place by accident."

"Huh? Nian Shen?"

"Father...Father, my son and I pay homage to our father..."

"Who asked you to come here?!"

"My son, my son is here to visit my grandma inside."

"Grandma?"

"Yes, Father, I know that Grandma did something wrong and was locked up in there, but Grandma - she is a good person, Father, can you -"

When I heard Nian Shen speak, I became a little anxious - this silly boy, I have always told him not to plead for me in front of the emperor, but he just -

And Xiao Nianshen didn't finish her words. She seemed to be frightened back. There were so many people standing outside, but they couldn't even hear the sound of breathing. The man's anger seemed to have penetrated the courtyard wall.

It shocked everyone.

"Your Majesty," at this time, it was Chang Qing's soft voice that broke the deadlock: "The eldest prince is ignorant and it is his concubine who neglected to discipline her, so I asked the emperor to punish her."

"..."

People outside even held their breath for a while.

But Pei Yuanhao did not answer her words, but said again: "What's going on with you two?"

Before Shen Rou could speak, Nangong Lizhu had already said: "Your Majesty, I heard that someone had broken into this place, so I came here to have a look. Unexpectedly, I met the queen and the eldest prince."

"Oh, that's right. What about the imperial concubine?"

"Concubine—I heard that the eldest prince was missing, so I helped him look for him, and that's why I came here accidentally."

"Oh..."

At this time, Nangong Lizhu said softly: "The imperial concubine and sister want to go in and have a look, but the concubine is not able to stop me. Fortunately, the emperor is here."

After hearing her voice that was as soft as spring water, Shen Rou seemed to sneer, but she did not let out her anger immediately. Instead, she said softly and softly: "It's my concubine's fault to say the least. As a concubine, I
