Reborn, seduced the prince and killed his wife to become his favorite concubine

Chapter 277 I am so humble, who can I compare with?

Lan Yandie was a little shocked, and her pitiful eyes subconsciously looked towards the emperor.

Probably because she saw that he had no objection, she dared to sit over.

Then Shen Zhishu couldn't help but stare at her for a long time out of curiosity.

Lan Yandie nodded and lowered her eyes, feeling a little embarrassed.

"I really want to go back and ask my parents if I have a sister who has been lost for many years and is now wandering around."

After all, she looks so similar to her.

"I am the Lan family's biological daughter, not an adopted child, so I don't have the blessing of being the virtuous concubine's sister."

Lan Yandie said softly.

Shen Zhishu smiled softly.

"Who said no? Aren't we a family now?"

Lan Yandie was obviously a little shocked. She probably felt that what he said was wrong, but she didn't know how to refute it.

"You play the pipa so well, how many years did you learn it?"

Yan Chu was stunned just now, but now he had no expression on his face and looked uninterested.

However, Shen Zhishu was quite interested in this young lady who looked very similar to her, and they got along well.

Before I knew it, half an hour had passed.

Shen Zhishu drank tea and Lan Yandie drank wine. Although she spoke little, she responded to every word and her voice was soft and unexpectedly pleasant to the ear.

Shen Zhishu was quite interested in the pipa, so he asked her for advice.

In the quiet pavilion, the sound of the pipa was plucked from time to time. Although it was not very pleasant, it was quite interesting.

Shen Zhishu was even more excited, and seemed ready to learn a piece of music all night long.

"You play the piano so well, why do you need to tinker with this thing?"

It's late at night.

Yan Chu finally couldn't sit still anymore. He frowned and looked at Shen Zhishu with some resentment in his eyes.

"They are both musical instruments. The qin and the pipa are similar. Besides, having many skills is always a burden. What's wrong with me being able to play more of the same music?"

She couldn't help but retort.

At that moment, Lan Yandie looked at the two of them and felt a little envious.

"But it's really late today. Let's go another day and ask my sister for advice."

Although she scolded Yan Chu, she still stood up quickly and cooperated with him physically.

Lan Yandie also stood up properly and took two steps back.

Not until they walked away and the pavilion became deserted did she slowly raise her head, her beautiful eyes staring at the two people disappearing into the darkness, and she did not come back to her senses for a long time.

"My lady, I told you that the Emperor and Consort Xian will be together tonight, so you won't have a chance. Why did you choose tonight?"

After a while, her maid appeared and stamped her feet in annoyance.

"Azhi, don't you think that Concubine Xian is a gentle person?"

She didn't come back to her senses for a long time, as if she was still thinking about what she had just done while sitting here.

"Of course she is gentle. She is the most gentle lady in the whole palace. Otherwise, how could the Queen fall so hard in front of her? But gentleness does not mean kindness. My dear, you have been at home. Haven't you experienced the power of gentleness?"

The maid named Azhi accompanied her from home to this palace.

"Yes, the Queen is right. A gentle knife is deadly. The Queen hopes that I can become a sharp blade, but I am so weak and incompetent, and my status is humble. How can I cause harm to others?"

When she said this, her eyes turned red.

It actually looks so sad.

"Among the ladies staying in the palace this time, I am the only one with the lowest status. Normally, other ladies are not willing to interact with me."

As she spoke, tears began to fall, and her crying was like pear blossoms in the rain, which was actually very beautiful.

"My lady, when we invited each other to drink tea, you said you were not feeling well and could not drink tea. When they invited you to play the pipa under the moonlight, you said your music was sad and could not get out of the joy, and you were afraid of disturbing everyone's interest. Aren't you the one who rejected them?"

Azhi was helpless and rolled his eyes silently.

Well, her master is sick again.

"But I am also doing this for everyone's good. Last time, so many ladies gathered together to discuss this year's Mid-Autumn Festival program and wanted to dance for His Majesty together, but I was not invited."

Unexpectedly, this made her feel even more aggrieved, and her pearl-sized tears fell more frequently.

Ah Zhi looked like she had lost all hope in life.

"The Emperor and the Concubine Xian have both gone back, let's go too."

Then he pulled the crying little girl back. It seemed that she didn't want to leave.

It was very late when Jing'an finally left the palace.

The Queen Mother stood at the palace gate to see her off. The cold wind blew and made her cough.

"Go with peace of mind. Life is still long. Who says there won't be another chance in the future?"

As she said this, she handed her a letter.

"I also want to give you what you want, but the emperor has just ascended the throne and the city cannot be lost in his hands. Take this letter to the ancient city and we will find a way."

Then the Queen Mother spoke earnestly.

Jing'an had no expression at first.

But after seeing the name on the letter, I actually smiled a little.

"I knew that my mother would still treat me well as always."

She held the letter in her arms like a treasure.

The Queen Mother smiled kindly and amiably.

He watched Jing'an's carriage leave before dragging his sick body back to his bedroom.

Then, Nanny Du found the long-sealed letter, which was covered with dust because no one had opened it.

The Queen Mother pulled it open and looked at it for a while.

"Are you sure no one noticed?"

"It was hidden in the gift sent by the third princess. It was very well hidden. It took me so long to find it. I guess no one knew about it."

"You forgot that she threatened me as soon as she entered the palace that if I didn't help her, she would make the secret in the letter known to the world. Judging from her expression, she must have felt that I had already read the letter. Since she sent it to me, why did she hide it so secretly?"

"You suspect that this letter has been hijacked, and after reading it, it was sent to you without making any noise?"

Nanny Du frowned slightly and immediately understood what she meant.

But then the Queen Mother shook her head again.

"I'm afraid I'm overthinking it. Who has the ability to rob Jing'an's secret letter and deliver it to my palace without making any noise? Moreover, if they really robbed the letter, why would they send it to me? Why not use it to threaten me?"

So after thinking about it, I guess I was just overthinking it.

"should be."

Nanny Du also pondered for a moment and said in a cold voice.

"Over the years, those who knew the secret have disappeared quietly. The third princess was originally outside the Great Wall and could not threaten you, but now it seems that she is disloyal to the Yan Dynasty. Shouldn't we get rid of this scourge?"

The Queen Mother was silent for a moment.

"But if something happens in our territory, I'm afraid people outside the Great Wall will use it as an excuse to cause trouble."

She was worried, but she had no feelings for Jing'an.

"Have you forgotten about the assassination in Kyoto? The truth is still unknown and the murderer has not been caught yet."

Nanny Du's eyes were full of calculation and cruelty.

"Then wait until she goes further away. We can't let her have the chance to return to Kyoto for help."

The Queen Mother was extremely cold when she spoke of it.
