Fang Shanggong looked at Qing Yan walking beside him, this girl is not bad.
He has a clever spirit, but also a loyal heart.
He was also brought here from Yingxiang Pavilion.
Originally, her name was not Qing Yan, but Tao Feng.
The name was changed later.
Running errands to the Sixth Palace in the East today can be said to be a very thankless job.
Many people think that the East Sixth Palace is unlucky, with the weather being cold and the road being long, and the concubines leading a miserable life, being stingy with their dealings, and sometimes receiving no reward at all.
Just like today, if it weren't for such a big event as giving a New Year's gift, and Fang Shanggong personally took the lead, they wouldn't have returned empty-handed.
For this reason, few people are willing to run errands in the East Sixth Palace.
"Look at those people today, what do you think?"
Qingyan didn't expect Fang Shanggong to suddenly ask her such a question.
She was startled for a moment and then said: "It feels like what Sister Qinghe said a few days ago, one day of being a monk will hit the clock."
When we are dawdling, everyone seems slow, listless, and old-fashioned.
"Actually, it's good that they can live today.
Think about it, the people who entered the palace with me, there are still a few people like Eunuch Bai and Eunuch Zhou alive.
A group of eunuchs who entered the palace, and how many Have you ever thought about someone who can stand out like them, where you will be and what you will be doing when you reach their age?"
This sentence stopped Qing Yan.
After Fang Shanggong finished speaking, he smiled self-deprecatingly: "Look at me, I am just saying such things.
I probably met an old friend today, so it is inevitable to feel emotional.
You are still a teenage girl, so these things are naturally not something you don't have to worry about now."
No, these words have already given Qingyan a very important point.
Although she didn't understand what this meant, she felt that what Fang Shanggong said was very important.
Sister Qinghe was right.
Sure enough, if Fang Shanggong was willing to give her some advice, she would avoid many detours.
Qingyan does have some disdain for the people in Dongliu Palace.
In her opinion, these people are old, worn out, forgotten by everyone, and are slowly moldy and rotting in the corner of Dongliu Palace.
But where are the people who are the same age as these people and who entered the palace at the same time?
The fact that they are alive is already an extraordinary skill.
Compared with those companions whose bones are no longer buried, they must have been smarter and more aware of current affairs.
Concubine Kang looked like a living dead, while Concubine Zhang looked heartless with her smile.
Master Qian Bao and his mistress in Concubine Zhang's palace looked shameless.
In front of Concubine Zhang, they were not as dignified as Shang Gong's aunt.
They were just as attentive and fawning as two girls.
But they were all people who survived the Queen Mother's hands back then.
The way they choose to live allows them to live longer and better than others.
My life is going well now, but what about the future?
What kind of life do you want to live in the future and what kind of life can you live?
Qingyan felt that he really needed to think about it carefully.
Fang Shanggong came back to see Xie Ning and briefly explained today's errand.
Xie Ning was originally worried about going out in such weather as Fang Shanggong, not to mention that Dongliu Palace was far away.
But Fang Shanggong said that he also wanted to take this opportunity to meet his old acquaintances.
So after Fang Shanggong replied, Xie Ning asked with great interest: "I met my old friend today, right?
Come back so soon, I'm afraid I won't have a chance to reminisce about old times."
"There is nothing to talk about in the past."
Fang Shanggong said with a smile of unknown meaning on his face: "The better the past, the better people will think of how unsatisfactory the present life is.

And when I stand in front of them, there are so many I was reminded, so I just said a few polite words and we returned after delivering the things.”
What's rare is that Fang Shanggong's words resonated with Xie Ning.
She, Liu Cairen, Liang Meiren and the others were also speechless.
Liu Cairen and the others did not dare to mention the past in front of Xie Ning, fearing that Xie Ning would not like people mentioning the past when they were in a humble position.
And what's there to say about what's going on now?
It just makes them humbler in front of Xie Ning.
People say that the world is cold and cold, and they always like to say: Rich people change their wives, and noble people change their friends.
No, this is not just about a cold heart, but when your status and environment change, the way people around you treat you also changes.
People in the original environment can only look up to you and be hostile to you, but people in the new environment are scrutinizing you and ignoring you.
Fortunately for Xie Ning, she didn't have any good partners or friends before.
But now, she has the emperor, the eldest prince and the others, and she has no time to care about the mood and thoughts of more people.
Just like what Fang Shanggong said.
Everyone is on their own path.
For people who are on different paths, it is not a good idea to be tied to each other.
We can only drift apart.
Fang Shanggong looked at Xie Ning.
Although she is old, Xie Ning is in her prime.
However, she experienced ups and downs since she was a child.
Her parents, grandfather, and grandmother all passed away one after another.
She also followed her uncle from the Lin family back and forth, and her vision and state of mind were unmatched by ordinary people.
She has a clear mind and clear eyes.
This is not because she is naive and ignorant, but because she is open-minded.
If it hadn't been for this, the emperor would probably not have been as devoted to her as he is now.
"Qing He was worried just now.
He was afraid that you would catch a cold again after going out and wouldn't be able to walk around tomorrow and the day after."
Qingmei told Xie Ning that the weather suddenly became so cold two days ago.
When Fang Shanggong got up in the morning, his legs went weak and he collapsed in front of the bed.
Qingmei was so frightened that she lost her mind.
She thought something was seriously wrong with Fang Shanggong, so she dragged Fang Shanggong to the bed while calling for help in a crying voice.
The result was that Fang Shanggong's old habit relapsed as the weather turned colder, so he couldn't get up.
Fang Shanggong shook his head and said, "This girl is so intolerable."
Xie Ning understood it very well: "Care leads to chaos.
She only lost her position when she was really anxious."
The New Year is just around the corner.
In fact, Xie Ning felt that the good thing about celebrating the New Year was that the emperor could finally seal it legitimately.
From now until the end of the year, I can always take a break for about ten days.
Xie Ning has no plans to leave the palace.
The emperor originally asked her if she wanted to stay at Fengtai Hot Spring Palace for a few days, but Xie Ning also refused.
"It's too cold.
I'm afraid the children won't be able to move around."
When the emperor thought about it, it was indeed the case.
Fengtai Palace is hundreds of miles away from the capital.
The eldest prince may not be able to bear such weather, and the second prince is too young.
As for Princess Yubing, there is no need to even think about it.
Concubine Jin is like a frightened female cat these days, showing off her claws at everyone.

Most of the troubles in the Han family are actually caused by themselves, but Concubine Jin feels that others are looking down on her and deliberately intimidate her, making her lose face, and she looks aggressive.
Xie Ning didn't want to guess how she would react when he told her that he wanted to take Princess Yubing out of the palace.
The emperor rested for two days and met some elders in the clan and some juniors.
The atmosphere was very relaxed.
He also took Xie Ning and the three children to the Changning Hall, where he and the eldest prince made simple couplets against the snow-covered rockery pool, and even drew a picture with Princess Yuyao.
The emperor's painting skills are very good.
Xie Ning thinks this means that the capable are not omnipotent.
The emperor is not only the emperor, he also has many benefits that others don't know about.
Sometimes Xie Ning really wanted to find someone to talk to, but who to talk to?
After thinking about it carefully, she couldn't bear to say it.
There are many things that only she and the emperor know.
That sweetness flows in the bottom of my heart, secretly and unknown to others.
The emperor's painting included both Xie Ning and Princess Yuyao.
However, he drew it very cleverly, it was from the back, and the two of them were wearing the same cloak.
Everyone who has painted the cloak knows how easy it is to draw.
The simplest thing is to draw a piece of cloth with four lines, then put a head on the cloth, and you're done.
But although this painting is simple, it is very detailed.
The emperor realistically described on the drawing paper the scene where Xie Ning held Princess Yuyao's hand and the two slowly moved forward.
When drawing this painting, the emperor had no idea that Princess Yuyao's biological mother was someone else.
When he looked at the painting after it was finished, the emperor only felt a warmth and relief in his heart.
Anyone can see that these are a mother and daughter.
Xie Ning herself was an orphan without a father and mother.
She knew best what it was like to be without parents, and she treated the eldest prince and Princess Yuyao equally well who had lost their mother.
When Xie Ning came to see the painting, he was also startled for a moment.
He stood quietly beside the emperor and did not make a sound for a while.
The emperor kept this painting himself.
The second prince came to a brand new environment like Changning Hall and was curious about everything.
He even became very interested in the seal box on the imperial case.
Of course, what was in that seal box could not be a jade seal, but it was also a seal that the emperor used daily.
Of course, such an important thing could not be given to children to play with.
The emperor hugged the second prince and comforted him: "I can't give you this.
When you capture Zhou, I will put this on the table.
If you really want it, you can capture it yourself."
It is impossible for the second prince to understand this, but this child is not willful or stubborn.
After he understood that the adults would not give him the seal box, he would no longer pester him for such a thing.
He soon changed his attention and reached out to grab the pen mountain.
But when Xie Ning heard this, her heart skipped a beat.
Although the emperor's words were meant to coax the child, it really didn't sound like a joke.
But when the second prince arrests Zhou, if the emperor takes out such an important seal for him to arrest Zhou, what kind of speculation will it be in the eyes of others?
Xie Ning didn't want to see such a scene.
The second prince is still young, and his temperament and intelligence cannot be seen now.
If others make their own judgment and label him as a quasi-prince, this will definitely be harmful to the child
