The emperor's eyes wandered between Man Yue and Shang Moxin. When his originally sharp eyes fell on Shang Moxin, they were frozen and dazed for a moment.

The Queen Mother was standing next to the Emperor, and she naturally sensed that something was wrong. However, when the Queen Mother looked at the expression on the Emperor's face, she saw that the Emperor's expression had returned to its original state.

The Queen Mother was even more confused.

As a group of people walked into the main hall, the atmosphere seemed extremely solemn and solemn because of what happened before.

Seeing this, the queen coughed lightly and spoke softly,

"Your Majesty, the rewards you asked me to prepare are all in place. Your Majesty, when do you think it is appropriate to announce them?"

This time, the emperor personally informed Man Yue and the other four people that he actually had some plans in mind, so he ordered the queen to prepare the jewelry as a reward in advance.

When the other concubines heard what the queen said, they couldn't hide their envy and jealousy on their faces.

When it comes to canonizing a concubine, it is naturally the queen's responsibility to prepare the rewards for canonization. They can only take a look at it. Everyone knows that they can take this opportunity to have more contact with the emperor, which is out of reach for other concubines.

There are three thousand beauties in the harem. Even the queen in the main palace is favored once every ten days and a half at most, let alone others. Now the most favored in the harem is Concubine An, but Concubine An is even afraid of the Queen Mother.

I dare not touch him easily, let alone other people.

After listening to the queen's words, the emperor nodded, but was not in a hurry to confer the title.

"Your Majesty, although today's event is just a face-to-face wedding, there will be a formal ceremony afterwards. From now on, we will all be a family. This is the first time for Your Majesty to see them." The Queen Mother's tone seemed calm and steady on the surface, but in fact it was

I have been looking for the special aura in the emperor's expression.

The Emperor is the son of the Empress Dowager. If there is anything wrong with her son today, the Empress Dowager is naturally more sensitive than others.

"Although this is the first time, some people have left a profound impression on me." The emperor spoke in a cold and solemn voice. After the ink pupils moved away from Man Yue's face, they landed on Shang Moxin's face calmly.

"Go down with the order and get some food."

The emperor was in no hurry to confer the title. Since we were about to become a family, the significance of this lunch was extraordinary.

The emperor refused to let go. Both the queen mother and the empress had doubts in their hearts. However, the emperor could not see anything on the surface. The queen mother had been observing for a long time and found nothing.

The luncheon started. Full Moon Monks Mo Xin, Song Xiaoyou, and Ding Juming were sitting in a row. Next to the Emperor were the Queen Mother and the Queen. A group of concubines sat beside the Queen and Queen Mother, Lin Ran, Lin Dongyao, Lin Donghe, and Lin Ran.

He was sitting opposite Man Yue and others.

There are many rules in the palace. It is said to be a luncheon, but everyone must be extremely cautious in every move they make.

At the beginning of the luncheon, the emperor mostly asked about the recent official affairs of Lin Jian, Lin Dongyao and others. The two responded calmly. The emperor seemed to be listening attentively, but his mind had long gone.

Just as the luncheon began, Xiao Zhuozi, the emperor's personal eunuch, hurriedly walked into the hall, followed by Lin Nande, who was dressed in a smoky green brocade robe.

"Father! Father! The cold and warm jade chess piece has been found!"

As soon as Lin Nande walked into the hall, he hurriedly spoke. Because he was walking in a hurry and breathing heavily, his face became even paler.

Seeing this, the Queen Mother hurriedly ordered someone to help him, "You kid, if you have anything you can't say slowly, look at your face."

The Queen Mother knew that Lin Nande would be out of breath if he walked a few steps quickly, and in severe cases he would faint, so she felt unspeakably distressed and concerned about Lin Nande.

A trace of worry flashed across the emperor's face.

"Father! The cold and warm jade chess pieces!"

Lin Nande, however, raised the chessboard in his hand and looked at the emperor excitedly.

"I knew it yesterday. Didn't your second brother tell you?" As he spoke, the emperor glanced at Lin Donghe sharply.

Lin Donghe's eyes flickered and he was about to speak, but Lin Nande said innocently,

"Father, my second brother has been busy with government affairs recently, so he can't take care of me. But my father only knows that the Lengnuan jade chess piece has been found, but hasn't he found a way to make the Lengnuan jade chess piece hot or cold at the same time?" Lin Nan

The cold and warm jade chess piece that Man Yue holds in De's hand was known to Man Yue in her previous life as a rare object from the Western Regions. It is said that the two-color chess piece is cold and hot. If it meets the right owner, the cold and warm jade chess piece can be hot or cold at the same time.

A trace of surprise flashed in the emperor's eyes.

"You know the trick?" The emperor couldn't believe it.

"Of course, Father." Lin Nande nodded firmly.

"Eighth brother, you are still young and don't know much about the cold and warm jade chess pieces. These cold and warm jade chess pieces have been passed down for hundreds of years, and you have never experienced fever or chills at the same time. How could you find it?" Lin Ran asked.

Lin Nande's words were dismissed with disdain.

Lin Donghe lowered his eyes and remained silent.

The cold and warm jade chess piece was retrieved by Lao Wu. Lao Ba and Lao Wu are in the same group. How could Lao Ba not know this? Isn't it clear that a scapegoat will be placed on him?

Lin Nande did it on purpose.

Lin Donghe gritted his teeth with hatred.

Opposite, Man Yue was watching the play peacefully, her eyes unexpectedly met Lin Donghe's playful and searching eyes, their eyes intertwined, hers were as calm as water, and his became more and more profound and focused.

Lin Jian saw this scene in her eyes, an undercurrent surged in the depths of her pupils, her face remained calm, but huge waves were rising in her eyes.

"Third brother, you are wrong. This cold and warm jade chess piece has not been passed down for hundreds of years, but for 1,200 years. It is not that there has never been any signs of fever or chills at the same time. It happened once before, but it was recorded in

In a book of casual chats, the name at that time was not called the cold and warm jade chess piece but the cold and hot jade chess piece, so most people in the Celestial Dynasty didn’t know how to make it hot or cold at the same time."

Lin Nande explained to Lin Ran seriously. He did not refute Lin Ran, but what he said was tantamount to telling everyone that Lin Ran was ignorant and knowledgeable, not even as good as a twelve-year-old boy.

Lin Ran's face turned green and white, and he argued, "I - I just said it casually, don't I know that this cold and warm jade chess piece has a history of 1,200 years?"

"Yes, Eighth Prince, your third brother knows that, but he was a little anxious just now and made the mistake." Lin Ran's mother-in-law, Concubine Hui, also hurriedly defended Lin Ran.

Lin Nande said oh, with a innocent and harmless look on his face, which made Lin Ran even more innocent.

"Okay, I don't know how much he knows. Isn't it shameful not to know about these things? If you try to quibble, it will look pretentious!"

The emperor frowned and spoke in a deep voice.

What they said made Lin Ran and Concubine Hui's faces dim at the same time, while other concubines or cigarette holders snickered or looked away.

"Old man, where is the gossip book you mentioned?" The emperor loved Lin Nande very much. In addition to Lin Nande's current frailty and illness which were all caused by the medicine introduced for him, Lin Nande also had a photographic memory.

He has forgotten his reading skills, and the books he has read are on par with those of Prince Edward and Lin Dongyao.

"Father, here it is." Lin Nande said and handed the book he mentioned to Xiao Zhuozi.

Xiao Zhuozi dedicated it to the emperor, who immediately started reading it.

Lin Nande had time to turn his head to look at Man Yue. Seeing Man Yue sitting quietly on his seat with a face as heavy as water, Lin Nande couldn't help but wink at Man Yue and raise his eyebrows.

Opposite him, Lin Dongyao glared at Lin Nande coldly. Just looking at his side made Lin Nande feel like he was being targeted by a beast and would tear him into pieces at any time.

Man Yue lowered her eyes speechlessly, what was Lin Nand doing? Teasing him?

In her eyes, Lin Nande was just a young boy! He was only a few years older than Jinglie.

"This book says that after the cold and warm jade chess pieces are purified, two boys and girls born on the eighth day of August need to pick up the chess pieces at the same time and absorb the essence of the moonlit night under the moonlight for more than an hour! In order to succeed!"

After the emperor finished speaking, the queen hurriedly spoke,

"Your Majesty! The prince's birthday is on the eighth day of August."

"But the prince brother is no longer a virgin?" As soon as the queen finished speaking, Lin Nande looked at Lin Jian with a puzzled expression.

The queen's face changed slightly, but she was not sure whether the prince had ever had a relationship with a man or woman! The prince must be sixteen years old. But the queen knew very little about the prince, so the queen was not sure.

Lin Nande's words undoubtedly caused thousands of waves. There are many people who care.

Ding Juming looked at Lin Jian with wide eyes, hoping to see some clues on his face, but Lin Jian was smiling and noncommittal.

"If the prince is really a boy, he can help his father. It's a pity - haha ​​- actually this can't be blamed on the prince. The prince is already an adult. There are some things -" Lin Ran said with some gloating.

Nan De made a strong compliment, and Lin Ran was just thinking about getting it back on other matters, so it was not surprising that he would talk too much.

"Oh, what a pity. It seems that we have to find a suitable candidate again." Concubine Hui also looked at the queen with a helpless expression, but her eyes were full of ridicule and hatred.

The queen's face changed and she was filled with embarrassment.

But Lin Jian remained silent, and no one could resolve the empress' embarrassment.

Looking at the whole thing in Man Yue's eyes, there is an indescribable weird feeling. The emperor found the cold and warm jade chess piece yesterday, and today Lin Nande found the method. Is it too coincidental? And he also pointed out that

Lin Jian!

As for the other virgin born on the eighth day of August——

If the full moon remembers correctly, Linghu Pingxue's birthday is the eighth day of August.

It seemed like a normal thing, but because it involved both Lin Jian and Linghu Pingxue, Man Yue suddenly felt that something was fishy.

But Linghu Pingxue shouldn't be so capable of tampering with Lin Nande. Even if he were, Linghu Pingxue wouldn't be able to escape Lin Dongyao's eyes! Tu Ling'er, who Lin Donghe has trained for many years, is still being pleased by Lin Dongyao.

Has it been resolved?

Lin Dongyao will not let Lin Nande make such a mistake!

So - this Lin Nande is helping Linghu Pingxue?

At present, it seems that the biggest beneficiary of this matter is Linghu Pingxue!

Once a boy born on the eighth day of August is found, it will be a matter of course for Linghu Pingxue to enter the palace!
Chapter completed!
