Xiangjie's death did not cause a big stir in the harem. If Xiangjie was given death by the king, it would have caused a big storm. After all, the king was directly attacking Yang by giving death to the maid next to Yang Guifei.
The face of the imperial concubine would make people gossip for three days more than punishing the imperial concubine Yang to kneel down. Now that Xiangjie died of illness on her own, there is no reason to make a fuss about it.
But Yan Ning was still a little embarrassed, and at the same time she had a deeper fear of the harem.
She thought of what happened to her in Jiang Guo's harem.
It turns out that no matter in Jiang State or Qi State, it is very common for people to lose their lives in the harem.
But she doesn't like it.
Therefore, she is not suitable for the palace, and she will have nothing to do with the palace for the rest of her life.
Ten days later, Chen Dongyan came back.
Because Qi Rongchu was adopted from outside, Chen Dongyan went to Qi Rongchu's hometown to investigate in order to find out whether Qi Rongchu's words were true or false.
Back and forth, ten days passed like this, and the time of ten days was considered very fast.
Chen Dongyan came to the king and reported to the king the status of the investigation in the past ten days.
Qi Hengyuan raised his eyebrows slightly: "Is Qi Rongchu's life experience true?"
Chen Dongyan nodded: "It's all true."
Qi Hengyuan was silent for a while: "I know, he has no problem, and I feel relieved."
Chen Dongyan stayed with the king. One day later, Chen Dongyan took orders and went to West Street to ask the Silver Guards to cooperate and build another gate on West Street.
This was something Yan Ning confessed years ago, but because it was the Chinese New Year, it was not done.
Spring is about to begin, and the next battle is coming soon. Guiyang City must not have any problems. If we do as Yan Ning says, Guiyang City will definitely be impregnable.
West Street is getting busy.
The Silver Guards also became busy.
Yan Ning is also busy in the palace. What is she busy with? She is busy preparing gifts for the king's birthday.
Yan Ning sat at the desk and smiled before she started writing: "I have been preparing gifts for His Majesty since I entered the palace, non-stop. He is really happy."
Nian Die smiled and said: "When the beauty celebrates her birthday, Your Majesty will also give her a gift."
Yan Ning picked up the pen, shook her head and said, "I probably have no hope for my birthday."
Niandie asked: "Why?"
Yan Ning said: "At that time, Jiang State may have declared war, and I may be far away at the border."
Nian Die said: "If you can't make it this year, you can make it next year. If you can't make it next year, there will be a year after that, and the beauty will always have a birthday."
Yan Ning thought to herself, yes, she will always have her birthday one day, but by that time, she will no longer be in the palace.
However, she had not expected to celebrate her birthday in the palace, so she was not disappointed.
She lowered her head, began to paint seriously, and stopped talking.
Half a month later, the second city gate on West Street was completed, and half of the picture of the universe and the situation drawn by Yan Ning was also completed. Ten days later, the picture of the picture of the universe and the situation was finally completed.
Liu Baoluo plans to leave the palace today and go to Jinmei Pavilion to get the jade sword.
She asked Yan Ning to accompany her.
After Yan Ning finished drawing this picture of the world, which was very important to Qi State, he felt relaxed.
After twenty-five days in the palace, I spent every day in the study drawing this picture. It was really boring. When Liu Baoluo invited him, Yan Ning immediately agreed, so the two of them took the maid and left the palace.
The two of them first went to Jinmei Pavilion to get the jade sword. After getting the jade sword, Yan Ning wanted to see Yan Lang, so she separated from Liu Baoluo.
The two of them agreed to meet at Yanzhai and then return to the palace together.
Yan Ning didn't know if Yan Lang would go to school today, so she went to Yan's house first.
After knocking on the door, Mother Li soon came to open the door. When she saw Yan Ning standing outside the door, Mother Li was really shocked, but soon she shouted happily: "Miss, are you out of the palace?"
Yan Ning hummed and asked as she walked in, "Is Yan Lang going to school today?"
Mother Li closed the door smoothly and replied: "The young master goes to school today and will be back at noon. Miss, will you stay at noon?"
Yan Ning said: "Keep it, I'll go back before dinner."
Mother Li smiled and said: "This way you can meet the young master at noon. The young master has made many friends since he went to school. Sometimes he will bring his friends back at noon."
Yan Ning raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "Really? What kind of friends are they?"
Mother Li clapped her fingers and reported the names: "The first son Qi Rong, Miss Liu Yuchan, Master Chen Hong, Master Fu Xinglu, Master Yang Lingxi, and Miss Ning Yingying."
Yan Ning was surprised when she heard this. Why did Chen Hong become friends with Yan Lang?
Yan Ning asked: "Do they often come to Yan's house with Yan Lang?"
Mother Li said: "No, occasionally. Sometimes it's one person, sometimes it's two people, sometimes it's several people together."
Yan Ning nodded, thinking that Yan Lang's student life was quite rich. With so many friends surrounding him, he was no longer alone.
Yan Lang came home from school at noon. When he saw Yan Ning, he was happy and surprised. He shouted: "Fourth sister!"
Before the voice fell, people had already rushed to Yan Ning.
Yan Ning was sitting in the main room, waiting for him.
Yan Ning looked at Yan Lang. He hadn't seen her for more than twenty days. Yan Lang seemed to have become more handsome. His dark face was slightly paler. The hair tie on his head had not changed. It was still the same one he wore on the first day of school.
.
Yan Ning never bought a hair tie for Yan Lang, but Yan Lang had money. Yan Ning thought that Yan Lang bought it himself. How did she know that this hair tie was a gift from Liu Yuchan.
Yan Ning smiled and asked: "How do you feel about going to school these days?"
Yan Lang smiled and said, "Very good."
Yan Ning said: "Yes, if you are happy, the fourth sister will feel relieved." Then she looked behind him and asked: "Where are your friends?"
Yan Lang paused, touched his head, and said with a smile, "They won't come today."
Yan Ning said: "It's good. I've only been in school for a long time and I've made so many friends."
Yan Lang also had a hard time saying that it was not him who wanted to take the initiative, it was them who insisted on getting in front of him.
Originally, because Ning Yingying got up so early in the morning, he thought it would be more comfortable for her to rest at home at noon.
Who would have known that he brought Ning Yingying to Yanzhai on the first day, and Liu Yuchan followed the next day, followed by Yang Lingxi, Fu Xinglu, and Qi Rongchu.
Chen Hong might have been unbalanced, so he followed him to Yanzhai.
Later these people became regular visitors to the home.
Yan Lang explained the matter simply.
Yan Ning smiled and said, "You don't have to explain to Fourth Sister. It's your freedom to make friends, and it's also your freedom to bring them to the house or not. Fourth Sister is just happy for you after knowing about this, so she will follow you
Just a joke."
It was noon when Yan Lang came back from school. Normally, lunch would be ready as soon as Yan Lang came back. It was the same today, but today there were more Yan Ning and Nian Die, so Mother Li cooked more.
After dinner, Yan Ning and Yan Lang went to rest.
When Yan Ning opened her eyes, Yan Lang went to school again.
The time Yan Ning and Liu Baoluo agreed to enter the palace was at Youshi, which was basically when Yan Lang got out of school.
Yan Ning sighed, it seemed that she couldn't wait until Yan Lang was out of school.
Sure enough, Liu Baoluo came over before the You hour.
Liu Baoluo came to Yanzhai for the first time. After entering the courtyard, he looked around.
Yan Ning wanted to delay some time. Before entering the palace, she took one more look at Yan Lang and asked, "Bao Luo, do you want to look around?"
Liu Baoluo glanced at her and didn't understand what she was thinking. He smiled and said, "Just take a look. Anyway, as long as you enter the palace today, it will be fine."
Yan Ning followed closely: "Then let's have dinner before entering the palace? You haven't eaten at Yanzhai yet."
Liu Baoluo nodded: "Okay."
Yan Ning became happy. They left the palace this time without asking the king for instructions, so it was best not to spend the night.
Liu Baoluo's identity is there. If she wants to spend the night outside, that's okay, but she can't.
It was for her that Liu Baoluo decided to return to the palace today.
The reason why the concubines in the harem can enter and exit the palace so freely is because His Majesty the State of Qi never bothers with the women in the harem and allows them to leave the palace whenever they want. This is also because the harem is not controlled by the queen.
When His Majesty the Qi State accomplishes what he is most concerned about, the Nine Passes and Nine Cities are recovered, and Jiang State is destroyed, and he can make the queen the queen again, everything will be on track, and the women in the harem will no longer be able to leave the palace.
Yan Ning took Liu Baoluo around the front and back yards. More than half a month later, Mrs. Du had taken care of the yard in an orderly manner. Trees and flowers were planted in the corners. However, because Yan Lang wanted to practice swordsmanship, there were not many flowers planted in the front yard.
Some bananas and climbing plants were planted along the wall, and there were more flowers at the back.
Mrs. Du also opened a small garden in front of the hall. When she opened the window of her bedroom facing the courtyard, she could see bright flowers and smell the faint fragrance of flowers.
Liu Baoluo said with envy: "Your small courtyard is nice. If I could live in it by myself, I would also build a small courtyard like this. It is quiet and beautiful."
Yan Ning said: "If you want to be quiet, come back to my place next time."
Liu Baoluo nodded: "Okay, from now on..."
She originally wanted to say that after I leave the palace, I will come to your place to play every day.
But then I thought that since she had already entered the palace and became a king's woman, she might never be able to leave the palace in her lifetime, so she didn't say anything else.
She was a little disappointed. She pointed to some of the better chrysanthemums in bloom and asked, "Can I pick a few?"
"Okay, let's pick it together."
The two of them picked some flowers and sat in the main room to arrange flowers.
When arranging flowers, Liu Baoluo asked Nanxiu to go to Shengzhi Academy to pick up Liu Yuchan from school.
Nanxiu went immediately.
After school, Yan Lang took Guo Xin to the entrance of the college, followed by Liu Yuchan. Ning Yingying wanted to go with Ning Yuan, but she went to find Ning Yuan after school and did not follow him.
Chen Hong walked with some friends from other schools.
Fu Xinglu and Yang Lingxi walked together.
Qi Rongchu followed Yan Lang leisurely.
Everyone walked out of the gate and sat in the carriage that took them back home.
When Nanxiu saw Liu Yuchan, she shouted: "Miss Yuchan!"
When Liu Yuchan heard someone calling her, she raised her head and glanced towards the sound. When she saw Nan Xiu, she let out a sigh. She went back to Liu Mansion to eat and rest at noon, and naturally saw her sister. However, her sister said that before dinner, she
Those who are about to enter the palace, look at the time. At this time, my sister should have entered the palace. Why is her slave still outside, waiting at the gate of the Holy Philosophy Academy!
Liu Yuchan immediately walked over and asked, "Nanxiu, why are you here?"
Nanxiu said with a smile: "Miss is a guest at Yanzhai. After dinner, I will go to the palace and ask my servant to come over. I will pick up Miss Yuchan and go to Yanzhai for dinner."
Yan Lang and Liu Yuchan were walking together, and naturally they heard Nanxiu calling Liu Yuchan. When Liu Yuchan walked towards Nanxiu, Yan Lang also walked over.
Yan Lang had met Liu Baoluo many times, and he also knew Nan Xiu. When he saw Nan Xiu, he said hello to Nan Xiu.
After listening to Nan Xiu's words, Yan Lang said to Liu Yuchan, "Then let's go back to Yan's house together."
Liu Yuchan wished that she would have dinner with Yan Lang and spend more time with Yan Lang. She smiled and said, "Okay." Then she ran to the carriage of the Liu Mansion that picked her up and said something to the driver. The driver looked at
He glanced at Nan Xiu in the distance, nodded, and left.
Liu Yuchan ran back and said to Yan Lang: "Let's go!"
Yan Lang said yes, and the group headed towards Yan's house.
Qi Rongchu was walking behind Yan Lang. He was very skilled in martial arts. Even though he was only a few steps away, he could hear clearly what Nan Xiu said even though he was several feet away.
Originally he shouldn't join in the fun, but thinking of his mission, he still chased after him a few steps, called out to Yan Lang, and said to Yan Lang: "Are you going to the martial arts field tonight?"
Yan Lang raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you free in the evening?"
After sparring with Qi Rongchu last time, the two of them have never been to the martial arts field to spar again. After all, the coursework at Shengphilosophy Academy is really heavy.
Every time after finishing the homework assigned by his husband, Yan Lang only had time to practice his sword for a while, and then he had to go to bed.
Going to the martial arts field to spar requires at least two hours.
Qi Rongchu said: "I have time, it depends on whether you have time."
Yan Lang asked: "Have you finished your homework today?"
Qi Rongchu shook his head: "No."
Yan Lang asked: "How much is left?"
Qi Rongchu asked him: "How much do you have left?"
Yan Lang said: "It will probably take another hour to write."
Qi Rongchu said: "Let's write it together and go to the martial arts field after finishing it."
After a pause, he added: "If you don't mind, I will go to your place for dinner in the evening, do homework together, and then go to the martial arts field together. This way we can save some time and don't have to wait for the person to fight. We can get it when we go there.
For battle tokens, go directly to the competition."
Yan Lang is a person who loves practicing martial arts. As long as he can go to the martial arts field to compete and learn, he will not let it go. He thinks Qi Rongchu's suggestion is very good. Qi Rongchu went to Yanzhai for dinner with him, which saved a lot of time. Otherwise, Qi Rongchu would have to go back first.
In Prince Qi's Mansion, he eats and writes again. Because the two of them are not together, the time will not be consistent. After arriving at the martial arts field, he may have to wait for Qi Rongchu. If Qi Rongchu does not arrive and other young people arrive, he will be assigned to be with other people.
The young men are competing in martial arts.
Yan Lang said: "Okay then, you come with us to eat at Yanzhai."
Yan Lang thought that since there were so many people at night, Li's mother should have prepared plenty of dinner, so that Qi Rongchu and his book boy would not be left without food.
So, Yan Lang and Liu Yuchan returned to Yan's house and brought another Qi Rongchu with them.
Even though Qi Rongchu is young, he is the adopted son of Uncle Qi Wang, and he is raised in the name of Princess Qi. Even though he is an adopted son, he is also his legitimate son, and he is a person with the title of heir apparent.
When everyone saw him, they had to salute him.
Even Yan Ning and Liu Baoluo nodded politely to him: "Prince Qi."
Qi Rongchu also greeted them both.
Yan Ning pulled Yan Lang aside and asked him in a low voice: "Why did you bring Qi Rongchu with you?"
Yan Lang explained briefly, and Yan Ning said, "That's it."
She thought for a while and said: "Okay, after dinner, the fourth sister and Liu Baoluo are about to enter the palace. At that time, you will send Liu Yuchan back to the Liu Mansion. With Qi Rongchu accompanying you, I will feel more relieved. Wait for you to send Liu Yuchan back to Liu Mansion."
Send him back to the Liu Mansion safely, and then go to the martial arts field to compete with Qi Rongchu."
Yan Lang hummed and said one word: "Okay."
Mother Li does make a lot of dinner. Whenever guests come to the house, Mother Li will prepare more food. She would rather have leftovers than let the guests not eat enough and lose the face of the young lady and the young master, so even if there are more Qi Rongchu and a
It doesn't matter, book boy, the dinner is in good order and the guests and hosts enjoy themselves.
After eating, Yan Lang, Qi Rongchu, and Liu Yuchan all went into the study to do their homework.
Qi Rong had been to Yan's house for the first time, but it was almost noon. He had no homework at noon, and he only slept here at Yan Lang's place, so he never entered Yan Lang's study.
When I walked in, I discovered that Yanlang's study room had many bookshelves, all of which were filled with books.
Qi Rongchu was too embarrassed to look through Yanlang's bookshelf when he first arrived. He just deliberately walked past the nearest bookshelf and glanced at the pages of the visible books. All he saw were books related to topography.
.
Qi Rongchu thought to himself that it seemed that Yan Ning was indeed teaching Yan Lang to learn the art of geography and learn from her the ability to peer into the world.
Qi Rongchu squinted his eyes, looked back calmly, and followed Yan Lang to sit at the desk.
Originally, Yan Lang's desk was not big. Later, because Yan Lang discovered that Guo Xin really liked reading, one desk was not enough, so Yan Lang asked his mother Li to buy another one. Now, with two desks facing each other, it seems that the desk is too big.
Very huge.
Such a desk can seat four people at the same time.
Now there are three people, just enough space to sit, and there is still room on one side.
The three of them each pulled out their chairs and sat down to do their homework.
Yan Ning and Liu Baoluo packed up and set off to the palace.
Before setting off, he knocked on the door of the study room and said something to Yan Lang. Yan Lang went out to see them off. He didn't go back to the room until he couldn't see Yan Ning and Liu Baoluo and continued to do his homework.
After finishing the homework, it’s getting late. In fact, in the summer, it would still be bright at this time, but in winter, even though it is January, the nights are still very long. It will be dark after dinner, and it will be even darker at this time.
.
Yan Lang did not delay and sent Liu Yuchan back to the Liu Mansion first.
Liu Yuchan whispered: "Yan Lang, can I follow you to the martial arts field first, and then go back after watching your competition?"
Yan Lang asked: "If you go back late, will your family be worried?"
Liu Yuchan said: "No, I have an explanation with the coachman. Besides, I am accompanying my sister to have dinner at Yanzhai. I will go back late and my family won't say anything."
Thanks to Qingqing Aiyangyang and book friend 2023429 for the monthly ticket reward, okay.
Let’s continue asking for monthly tickets~
Hey, hey, the monthly ticket is pitiful...
I want to write a story about country and country and love, a rich and colorful story, not a single character, not a single plot. Some babies said, just write about regaining lost ground, then this is not a romance novel, but a war novel.
, it will look very boring.
Yang Qianyue and Chen Yurong will slowly leave the palace.
I have already laid the groundwork before. When Chen Yurong takes action against Yan Lang, it will be the time when she is in danger of escaping. At that time, the Chen family will have some turmoil and Chen Yurong will become darker. This also pave the way for a certain plot later.
I won’t spoil too much.
In short, believe me, before the fourth battle, it is basically laying the groundwork. Just like building a house, the foundation is being laid. After the fourth battle, it is the real battlefield. If you read it patiently, I think this story will not disappoint you.
.
I like male and female protagonists who are both physically and mentally clean, and I also like happy endings, so the later stages are very sweet and heart-warming, and the ending is also very happy.
Don't worry about writing. New books are very difficult. It's also the author's first book, so there is basically no income. I rely on your reading and votes to gain some motivation to continue updating.
Babies who want to see sweet and warm plots in the later period, please support me. The author can provide additional updates. The more updates you add, the faster you can see the sweet and warm plots you want to see.
