Since that day, Qin Zhen never saw Lou Shulan again.
The bungalow was already empty.
Qin Zhen had nowhere to go, so she stayed in her room all day. In her free time, she read books, fed fish, and slept most of the time.
Over at the palace, he also complained of illness and did not go to see Xiao Chengye.
However, Xiao Chengye was very concerned about her illness and ordered the eunuch chief Gao Cheng to send a lot of good things to Hulong Mansion.
Qin Zhen was lying under the tree in the yard and taking a nap. Yan Yu entered the yard with cakes and said as soon as he came in: "Why do you sleep here, Princess? Be careful of catching a cold."
Qin Zhen was lazy and didn't even move her eyelids.
Yan Yu was used to her being like this, so he said to himself: "I'm going to the front today and I heard from people outside that there's a new person in the palace, and the emperor likes it."
Qin Zhen's tightly closed eyes suddenly opened: "What did you say?"
Yan Yu: "Ah?"
"Let me ask, what did you just say?" Qin Zhen asked with a cold face, "A new person has entered the palace?"
"Ah? Yes, a newcomer has entered." Yan Yu said: "I heard that she is quite mysterious. She is not young anymore, and I don't know her origin. As soon as she entered the palace, His Majesty made her a concubine, and he loved her very much.
"
Qin Zhen's expression changed again and again.
Lou Shulan entered the palace, but the identity of Lou Yansheng's mother was not revealed. She stayed with the emperor with a new identity and became the emperor's concubine.
Yan Yu handed the cake to Qin Zhen and said: "This Concubine Shu is really lucky. She has such a good fortune in middle age. I heard that she has an average appearance and is not outstanding. I don't know what your Majesty likes about her.
…”
"Shut up!" Qin Zhen interrupted her sternly: "Is Concubine Shu someone you can discuss casually?"
Yan Yu stayed where he was: "I, I..."
"How many times have I taught you to be careful with your words and actions, but you have never listened once." After Qin Zhen finished speaking, she threw up her sleeves and left.
Yan Yu stood there for a while, then silently put the pastries back on the plate.
After that day, Qin Zhen never asked Yan Yu to serve him closely.
Time flies and it’s the first day of April in the blink of an eye.
This is the day specially chosen by the emperor for Qin Zhen to enjoy the flower viewing party.
Qin Zhen got up early in the morning. In order to show her interest in this matter, Qin Zhen specially wore a set of complicated palace clothes, rose red, which was very eye-catching.
Yan Yu helped her get into the carriage and lowered her head to straighten her long skirt.
After Qin Zhen sat down, Yan Yu asked cautiously: "Princess, can I follow you?"
Qin Zhen raised her eyebrows and looked at her.
Yan Yu quickly said: "I heard that the flowers at Baihua Villa are quite spectacular when they bloom. I am very curious and want to take a look."
Qin Zhen was silent for a moment and then said: "Come up."
Yan Yu beamed with joy and quickly climbed onto the carriage.
The carriage swayed and arrived at Baihua Villa half an hour later.
At this time, the door of Baihua Villa was open. Before entering, you could hear laughter and laughter coming from the courtyard.
Qin Zhen got off the carriage, and the young eunuch guarding the door quickly came to greet her.
But when he came up to her, he looked embarrassed and asked hesitantly: "May I ask, may I ask which family this girl is from?"
These people who serve people have very good eyesight. They never make mistakes about which family they belong to, and they can even recognize the people who serve the nobles closely.
But they really didn't know the girl in front of them.
Before Qin Zhen could speak, a scolding suddenly came from behind her.
"You are so outrageous that even Princess Anshun doesn't recognize it!" Gao Cheng came up from behind and gave the little eunuch a cold look.
The little eunuch's face instantly turned pale, and he knelt on the ground: "This servant is ignorant and doesn't recognize the princess. It's all my fault..."
"Okay, I don't blame you." Qin Zhen smiled and said, "It's my fault that I don't like to go out. That's why you don't know me. Get up and do your thing."
The little eunuch hesitated and did not move. Gao Cheng beside him said in a deep voice: "Why don't you thank the princess quickly?"
"Thank you, Princess, thank you, Princess!" The little eunuch got up and ran away quickly.
Qin Zhen then looked at Gao Cheng: "Why is Eunuch Gao here? Where is my father?"
"Your Majesty hasn't arrived yet," Gao Cheng said with a smile, "Your Majesty was afraid that the princess might have any needs, so he asked his servant to come here first to help the princess take care of things."
Qin Zhen looked touched: "Father is so kind to me."
"That's right, Your Majesty loves the Princess the most." Gao Cheng smiled with a few wrinkles in his eyes: "I have served Your Majesty for so many years, and I have never seen Your Majesty be so close to anyone."
The two of them entered Baihua Villa while chatting and laughing. As soon as they entered, the laughter and laughter inside stopped instantly.
Qin Zhen's arrival seemed to press the pause button for these people, and the entire villa was quiet except for the sound of Qin Zhen's footsteps.
Those who came were all young people, men and women, gathered together in twos and threes. At this time, their eyes fell on Qin Zhen alone.
Qin Zhen was a stranger to them, and after a moment's thought, they knew this person's identity. What's more, she was accompanied by Gao Cheng, the eunuch in charge, so her identity was absolutely obvious.
The former female bandit, now the daughter of Hulong Mansion, the princess of Anshun who is deeply loved by the emperor.
Under the gaze of everyone, Qin Zhen straightened her back and walked in step by step.
However, the hem of the skirt was too long. Qin Zhen stepped on the hem of the skirt and would fall forward if she tilted.
Gao Cheng's eyelids twitched and he exclaimed: "Princess Princess..."
Before she finished shouting, Qin Zhen had already fallen down with a thud, and the skirt underneath her was piled up in a mess.
"Princess!" Yan Yu exclaimed and quickly reached out to help her.
Gao Cheng also dropped the fly whisk in his hand and hurriedly helped Qin Zhen get up.
Qin Zhen's fall caused all the hair in her hair to fall off, her bun was messy, and she looked quite embarrassed.
"It's okay, it's okay," Qin Zhen pushed her hair out of her eyes and pretended to be calm: "I didn't fall, I'm fine, don't be nervous."
Gao Cheng: "..."
Qin Zhen coughed lightly, not daring to look at the eyes of the people around her, and just lowered her head to adjust her skirt.
Gao Cheng couldn't stand it anymore and said to Yan Yu: "Why don't you take your master down to sort it out?"
After finishing speaking, he said to Qin Zhen: "There is a wing over there. Princess, please go and tidy it up."
Qin Zhen nodded and said awkwardly: "Well, then these people..."
"Don't worry, Princess, I will stay here to greet you." Gao Cheng said quickly.
Qin Zhen felt relieved and then followed Yan Yu to the wing. After walking a few steps, she almost fell down again. She simply balled up the hem of her skirt and held it in her hands, and left quickly.
After she left, those who had pressed the pause button suddenly started to move.
A chuckle came from nowhere, followed by laughter.
In the pavilion not far away, stood the crown prince Xiao Jue and the third prince Lou Yan.
The two of them had a panoramic view of the scene just now.
Xiao Jue frowned at this moment and turned to Lou Yan and said: "Find a Cha Dong and send it to Hulong Mansion to teach her the etiquette and rules!"
