"You say this without reason. I will never be tired of doing things by myself. Why should I have something to do with His Highness the King of Qin?" Wang Shitong obviously regarded Chu Junlan as a liar.

Chu Junlan sneered: "Are you all fools in the capital? You are close to His Highness King Qin? Is there anyone who doesn't know about this? Besides, everyone knows why His Highness King Qin left the capital."

Chu Junlan didn't think she said anything nice, but she obviously felt that Wang Shitong was very happy, and she looked at her with a little more praise.

She had no intention of trying to figure out the idea of ​​such a girl, and just continued: "The Sixth Prince will be named the crown prince soon. Don't forget that if he ascends to the throne in the future, will he wait for an opportunity to take revenge? What's more, a hat to assassinate the crown prince, will you still have the life to live until your wishes come true in the future."

Chu Junlan said something like a splash of beads. After saying that, she walked towards the carriage without waiting for Wang Shitong to answer. But she deliberately slowed down.

Sure enough, in just a moment, Wang Shitong's somewhat anxious voice came from behind: "You...you said something makes sense."

Chu Junlan stopped and turned around, smiled and said goodbye to Wang Shitong: "Miss Wang, I have something to do, so I will say goodbye first."

"Wait!" Wang Shitong anxiously grabbed Chu Junlan's hand: "Aren't you resourceful? Please help me find a way, what else can I do now? What can I do for His Highness King Qin?"

Taking her hand away, Chu Junlan smiled and said, "To be honest, you do nothing now, which is the greatest help to Your Highness Qin King. Think about it, the sixth prince's mother tribe is powerful, and Concubine Shu is the only one who is going to be the crown prince in the six palaces. Who else can control him in this world? Even I have to be a human being with my tail between my legs. How do Miss Wang want to suppress him?"

Wang Shitong shook her head and took two steps back in dismay, as if she was hit hard.

But she was confused for a moment. She suddenly had a bright light in her eyes. She seemed to have thought of some excellent solution and murmured: "Emperor."

Chu Junlan's eyes flashed with a gleam and he asked in confusion: "What did you say?"

"I said, the emperor can defeat the sixth prince," Wang Shitong suddenly raised her eyes and looked at Chu Junlan, with unconcealed ambitions in her eyes. "The emperor has not made serious choices for many years, but it does not mean that there is no new person in the harem."

Chu Junlan covered his mouth and said in surprise: "Ms. Wang, weren't you raised by the emperor and the late queen when you were young? The emperor treated you like a daughter. Could it be..."

"But I am not the emperor's daughter after all. I originally thought that I could be his daughter-in-law, but now His Highness the King of Qin has completely abandoned me..." Wang Shitong's eyes were determined and bright, but tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes.

"My only way out now is to wait for the emperor or Concubine Shu to think of me by chance, point me another marriage, and then let me marry you, but at my age, who can look down on me? It's just to be a re-stringer for others and a stepmother.

"If I want to fall to this point, I might as well try it out. If I can become the emperor's favorite concubine, my future situation will be very different."

Chu Junlan looked at Wang Shitong with surprise.

However, Wang Shitong had already explained herself, and she became more and more confident in her words, and she became more and more confident that her ideas would be achieved.

"Okay, since Miss Wang made this decision, I don't have much to say. It is indeed a good way out for serving the throne. At least no matter how domineering the Sixth Prince, he would not dare to bother the Emperor's favorite concubine." Chu Junlan bowed with both hands and hands, "Amitabha, then I don't have to worry that the Sixth Prince will be unfavorable to you, but I will stand up and get into the muddy water."

Wang Shitong laughed sneered, turned around and said nothing.

Chu Junlan curled the corner of his mouth the moment Wang Shitong turned around and got on the carriage.

Although they both returned to the palace, Wang Shitong and Chu Junlan had a tacit understanding along the way, and the distance between them was very far.

Huo Yeqing looked away and then rode his horse closer to the carriage and whispered: "The eldest prince's concubine, is Miss Wang really planning to serve the emperor?"

"It should be." Chu Junlan held his white fox fur's sleeves to warm his hands, and opened his eyes when he heard the sound.

Huo Yeqing was a little worried: "If she becomes the favorite concubine, what if it is not good for you and the eldest prince..."

"It's okay, even if she hates me, she definitely doesn't hate the Sixth Prince."

Huo Yeqing blinked his eyes and reacted for a moment, and suddenly realized: "So that's it, you were deliberately... this is a clever plan, a clever plan."

"What did I mean?" Chu Junlan raised his eyebrows and smiled softly, "I didn't say anything. She felt that she could no longer marry His Highness King Qin. She didn't want to be a house for casual use, and she didn't want to be entangled by His Highness Six. She came up with a solution."

Huo Yeqing smiled and nodded: "What you said is that she figured it out by herself and has nothing to do with us." After thinking about it, he asked with some concern, "Look at what His Highness the King of Qin means today. Although he abandoned Miss Wang, he was also somewhat concerned. Do you think Miss Wang would tell His Highness the King of Qin about this?"

Chu Junlan raised his eyebrows and smiled: "What are you talking about? Miss Wang wants to enter the palace to serve the emperor?"

"Yes." Huo Yeqing nodded.

"You think of His Highness the King of Qin so kind. Do you think he is your eldest prince?" Chu Junlan sneered, with contempt in his tone. "If he really cared about Wang Shitong, he would not have people waited for an old girl. He held a woman with emotion, delaying his best youth without going up or down. In the end, he blamed the sixth prince and left. He said, what can you tell that he cared about Wang Shitong?"

Huo Yeqing shook his head: "It really doesn't make sense. The eldest prince won't do this to you."

"Yes, maybe His Highness Qin would be happy to hear that Wang Shitong was going to enter the palace to serve the emperor."

The mother of the King of Qin would have been gone long ago. If Wang Shitong, who was infatuated with him, became the emperor's favorite concubine, at least there would be someone around the emperor who could speak for him.

Huo Yeqing was speechless and murmured: "It's really... ruthless."

"Yes, the most ruthless imperial family." Chu Junlan lowered his eyes, closed his sleeves, and lowered his eyelashes like butterfly wings.

When Xiao Xu returned to Zhongcui Palace, before he came back, Chu Junlan changed into a house-style dress and went to the next door to see Rusheng. Before he could open the lattice door, he heard the cry of the child coming from the inner room.

Chu Junlan's heart skipped a beat, and he pushed open the door and walked in quickly. He saw Rusheng lying in the wet nurse's arms, crying and his face turned red. The three wet nurses were nervously surrounding him at a loss.

Seeing that Chu Junlan was back, the wet nurse and the rest of the palace people breathed a sigh of relief.

"See the eldest prince's concubine." Everyone saluted.

Chu Junlan raised his hand to signal everyone to get up, and hugged Rusheng who kept crying in his arms with a smile: "What's wrong? Why are we Ru'er crying?"

Rusheng probably recognized his mother's breath, but she cried less loudly.

The wet nurse said, "I don't know what's wrong. Today, the Sixth Emperor Grandson ate less, and she doesn't look energetic. She doesn't like to sleep and cry."

Chu Junlan was a little worried. She must be feeling uncomfortable when the child changed like this. She touched the child's head and found that there was no fever. She checked again, but found no abnormalities, so she felt a little alert.

"I understand. There are children who love to cry, so you all go down."

"Yes." Seeing that Chu Junlan did not blame him, the wet nurse breathed a sigh of relief, and after saluting, she retreated respectfully.

Chu Junlan was worried and carefully checked the child, and confirmed that he had nothing abnormal or sick, so he was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

Rusheng was tired of crying and leaned against Chu Junlan's arms and felt drowsy. As soon as Chu Junlan was about to put him down, he started to hum again.

Chu Junlan couldn't help laughing, kissed the child's forehead, and hugged him and sat on the edge of the bed: "It seems that I miss my mother, right? Is it that my stepmother trying not to leave you, okay?"

What answered Chu Junlan was the small bubbles blown out from Rusheng's mouth.

As the New Year approaches, all palaces are becoming busy. Chu Junlan gets up early and walks in the front hall with Rusheng in his arms. Then he sees Haitang and other palace people busy cleaning up the various places.

Emperor Jinghong paid great attention to the joy of the New Year. Perhaps he was born in the imperial family. He had experienced many experiences before ascending the throne. Now he envied the warm life of ordinary people.

On the day of the Little New Year, Xiao Xu rarely had free time. Chu Junlan handed Rusheng over to his father to take care of him and left the palace to go to the eldest princess's house.

Chief Ruan was guarding the door. Seeing that Chu Junlan was really coming, he smiled and said, "Early in the morning, the lady told the villain to guard the door, saying that you are a trustworthy person and will definitely come."

Chu Junlan couldn't help but smile and said, "I've taken almost the medicine from the eldest princess. Let's take a look. How serious is the eldest princess coughing these days?"

"It's much better. My family is inside. Please come in." Chief Ruan smiled and led Chu Junlan to the bedroom door.

When Madam Zhang heard the movement outside, she opened the door and waited early in the morning. Seeing Chu Junlan coming, she smiled and said, "You are here, please come in."

Chu Junlan smiled and nodded, followed Madam Zhang into the bedroom door. As soon as she walked around the screen, she saw the eldest princess wearing a royal blue cotton-padded bun, with gray hair neatly tied behind her head into a round bun, wearing a small jacket of the same color, and was holding a hand warmer along the edge of the bed and leaning against the big pillow to read a book.

"I've seen the eldest princess." Chu Junlan bowed with a smile, "From your complexion, you've improved a lot."

The eldest princess smiled and put down the book, nodded and said, "For your blessing, you told me that the acupuncture points for cough relief are very useful. I initially pressed according to the position you described, but later the brows were wiped clean, and I remembered the acupuncture points too."

"It's good to remember. If you have the same symptoms in the future, you will suffer less." Chu Junlan examined the eldest princess' pulse and smiled, "It's like your body is not only improving, but also getting much less depression. I think something good happened?"
