Lu Qing and Ning Huayue came to the Prince's Mansion. Chen Qingzi didn't want to meet Concubine Chen anymore, so she didn't come.
Lu Qing stood beside Yan Fuguang, and soon someone turned their attention to the lonely Ning Huayue.
"The Crown Princess and the Crown Prince really have no feelings..."
"In front of so many people, the prince doesn't give face to the princess. Maybe it's even worse in the palace."
"This Concubine Wei is so powerful!"
Discussions like this entered Ning Huayue's ears one by one. She drooped her eyebrows and felt depressed all over her body.
Concubine Chen saw this scene after joking with Emperor Xihe for a while. As if she had not seen Ning Huayue, she looked at Lu Qing and Yan Fuguang with a smile: "Concubine Wei and the prince standing together are so eye-catching. I I hope Ling'er and the others can be as lucky as Concubine Wei and give birth to more children for Changfeng."
Zhao Ruoling quickly glanced at Yan Changfeng, only to see that he had not heard what Concubine Chen said at all. His attention was entirely on Lin Shuxian beside him, who was talking to her in a gentle voice.
Zhao Ruoling looked away with a hint of disappointment, and smiled reluctantly when she met Chen Fei's eyes.
There was a trace of indifference in Concubine Chen's eyes, but she still had a smile on her face: "Changfeng should learn more from the prince and put the heir first, and there is no use guarding other illusory things."
Lin Shuxian's expression became more and more indifferent, and Lu Qing also felt a little embarrassed.
Yan Changfeng sighed helplessly: "Mother, concubine, today is your birthday, why don't you stop talking about this?"
"Don't say anything else, my biggest wish is to be able to hold a grandson, whether it's a legitimate concubine or a concubine, as long as you give birth to a child, I will be relieved."
Every word that Concubine Chen uttered was filled with a sense of oppression that made Yan Changfeng extremely suffocated.
Not only that, she also insisted on bringing Lu Qing with her and pushed him to the front: "Concubines like Wei Concubine are the ones who have made contributions to the royal family. It is a woman's duty to continue to produce heirs. Nothing is as important as children! If you have a child, We have everything, don’t we?”
Concubine Chen used to look down on Lu Qing, but when Lin Shuxian couldn't give birth to a child, she looked back and thought that people like Lu Qing also had their merits. It didn't matter if they didn't have a family background. Being a child-bearing tool was very important. good.
Lu Qing frowned and looked at Lin Shuxian.
Lin Shuxian pursed her red lips tightly, her beautiful face tense and expressionless.
Yan Fuguang held Lu Qing's hand tightly, with sarcasm in his eyes, and sneered: "The situations of Gu and second brother are very different. Concubine Chen doesn't have to take Gu's people with her every step of the way."
Who compares it with his people?
Concubine Chen looked at Emperor Xihe helplessly: "I said the wrong thing. I gave the concubine Wei a few words, and His Highness the Crown Prince was not happy."
This sentence implies that Yan Fuguang takes Lu Qing's concubine too seriously.
Emperor Xihe frowned and raised his eyes. Yan Fuguang turned sideways to block Lu Qing behind him, and looked directly at Emperor Xihe with his sharp black eyes.
"Uh... Fuguang is right. When you talk about your own affairs, why do you have to bring others with you? The situation is different..."
Although it is not recommended to spoil concubines and destroy wives, he can't control his third son now!
Furthermore, if he blames the Wei family, he will not only offend his family Fuguang, but also Brother Lan and his three brothers must have objections to him, right? Emperor Xihe immediately no longer wanted to care about Yan Changfeng's affairs.
"Well, don't talk about this anymore. Go down and nag Changfeng."
Concubine Chen secretly gritted her teeth. From the corner of her eye, she saw Lin Shuxian next to Yan Changfeng and breathed out unhappily: "I am too talkative, and I am also too anxious. Your Majesty, please don't blame me."
After waiting for so many years, she finally waited for the right time. She would no longer be willing to be inferior to others, so Yan Changfeng had to have a son.
Emperor Xihe successfully silenced Concubine Chen for the time being. Yan Changfeng immediately expressed his apology to Yan Fuguang. He knew that Lu Qing was the person Yan Fuguang cared about. Concubine Chen had just deliberately started a war, involving Lu Qing and Yan Fuguang. Guang must be unhappy.
"Third brother, I apologize to you and my siblings on behalf of my mother and concubine. Don't take what she said to heart."
Lu Qing didn't expect that she would be responsible for the apology. She said softly: "Your Highness, Prince Qi, is too polite."
Yan Fuguang turned his head coldly. It was obvious that Concubine Chen's behavior just now made him angry, and he took his anger out on Yan Changfeng.
"Third brother..." Yan Changfeng wanted to explain again.
Yan Fuguang interrupted him: "Okay, I don't want this to happen again, otherwise don't blame me for not giving Concubine Chen face."
As he stood here, anyone with eyes had better not bully him.
Lu Qing felt his anger and gently squeezed his palm.
Yan Fuguang pinched it back in an instant, holding his two hands tightly, palms touching and fingers interlocked.
Yan Changfeng breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm sorry."
He stood for a while and then walked away. Zhao Ruoling eagerly stopped him in the middle of the road to talk to him.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Chen said you like to drink this kind of wine? I brought some over, you..."
Yan Changfeng raised his hand to signal her to stop talking. He was more indifferent to Zhao Ruoling than to strangers: "I won't drink."
After leaving and going to Lin Shuxian, Yan Changfeng transformed into Zhao Ruoling's role just now.
He asked Lin Shuxian cautiously: "If you don't like the tea today, can I have someone prepare some sweet soup for you later?"
Lin Shuxian glanced at Zhao Ruoling's back from a distance and said calmly: "I'm not thirsty."
"I..." Yan Changfeng wanted to say something more.
"Concubine Chen called you." Lin Shuxian reminded him quietly.
In fact, it was Concubine Chen who didn't want to see Yan Changfeng and Lin Shuxian together. She deliberately waved and said: "Changfeng, come here and let me talk to you!"
As soon as Yan Changfeng passed by, she immediately called Zhao Ruoling to her side. In this way, Concubine Chen was sandwiched in the middle, giving instructions to the two young people affectionately, one on the left and the other on the right, just like a worried mother-in-law telling the newlyweds some things to pay attention to in life.
Yan Changfeng's real wife Lin Shuxian was deliberately excluded by Concubine Chen.
Lu Qing felt uncomfortable after seeing this, and turned to look at Lin Shuxian.
Lin Shuxian happened to catch Lu Qing's eyes, and she smiled, still the same forced smile that didn't reach her eyes at the beginning.
Lu Qing stood on tiptoe and observed Concubine Chen. She was talking enthusiastically, and Zhao Ruoling was holding her up, intentionally or unintentionally, and she became more and more enthusiastic as she talked.
I probably don't have the energy to pay attention to her right now.
"Your Highness, I will come over for a moment."
Yan Fuguang glanced back, slowly let go of his hand, and said: "Go, don't stay too long."
"Um!"
Lu Qing stood next to Lin Shuxian. She didn't know what to say, so she didn't talk to her. She just quietly admired the delicate flowers in the flowerpot next to her.
Lin Shuxian hesitated to speak, and after a while she whispered softly: "You don't have to go out of your way to accompany me, I'm fine."
"Okay." Lu Qing paused, took out a piece of Brother Jiu's and Brother Yu's favorite candy bar from his purse, and handed it to Lin Shuxian, "Here you go."
Lin Shuxian chuckled: "Is this sweet?"
Lu Qing nodded: "It's very sweet."
Lin Shuxian took it into her mouth: "I happen to like it, thank you."
Lu Qing stayed with her for a while, and then returned to Yan Fuguang after she finished eating the candy.
