Beigong Tengxiao raised the corners of his lips, feeling very happy with this trick. He stroked her long hair with his fingertips and said, "I can pamper you like a child for the rest of my life."
Hearing this, Chu Jiaoli raised her head and pecked him on the cheek, then smiled and buried herself in his arms.
Beigong Tengxiao bowed his head and kissed her on the top of her head. Chu Jiaoli was in a particularly good mood today. Maybe she heard the promise he made in a daze yesterday, and her hanging heart just fell.
.
In the afternoon, the lotus pond outside the house is full of life, and the little lotuses are just showing their sharp corners. The beautiful beauty is dressed in light green clothes, leaning gently on the bench in the Octagonal Pavilion, holding an embroidered fan and fanning leisurely.
"Empress, I heard that you have a very close relationship with the Imperial Concubine Huang Fei." Luzhu, the maid holding an apple plate beside Xu Qingqian, said flatteringly.
Hearing this, Xu Qingqian raised the corners of her lips slightly, her expression couldn't hide her pride, and she said leisurely: "It turns out we were very happy with each other."
"Our empress is so powerful. I even know the empress in the palace. I heard that Concubine Huang is the emperor's most beloved concubine." Luzhu smiled and complimented.
Xu Qingqian snorted lightly and said: "Your master is naturally powerful."
Yuzhu came from the end of the corridor, saluted Xu Qingqian, and said: "Xu Liangdi, the Crown Princess will be here to enjoy the lotus in a quarter of an hour. Please move elsewhere."
Hearing this, Xu Qingqian lowered her head and responded softly: "I understand."
Yuzhu waved and called the maid next to her to replace the fruit plate with a more expensive one. Xu Qingqian looked at the plump and plump red cherries in the fruit plate, pursed her lips eagerly, and left reluctantly.
Walking in the corridor, Luzhu raised her eyebrows curiously and said, "Madam, what kind of fruit was that just now? It's rosy and full, and it looks lovely. This slave has never seen it before."
Hearing this, it even touched Xu Qingqian's heart. She sighed thoughtfully and said, "Those are cherries. I haven't eaten many of them since I was a child..."
"Cherry, I heard that cherries are precious, this is my first time to feast my eyes on you." Luzhu smiled and said, "My Lady, what do cherries taste like?"
Xu Qingqian glanced at her angrily and said in an unkind tone, "I forgot a long time ago. Ask the Crown Princess."
Luzhu lowered her head in frustration and said: "My queen, don't be angry, isn't it just cherries? I will eat as much as I want from now on."
Xu Qingqian gritted her teeth, then why did Chu Jiaoli live so well!
"But His Highness is really doting on the Crown Princess. I heard from the maid who kept watch yesterday that His Highness carried the Princess around the house on his back."
Xu Qingqian stopped suddenly, frowned, looked at her in disbelief, and said, "What did you say? You walked around with her on your back?"
Luzhu nodded and said: "Yes, my dear, I didn't expect this. The Prince's Mansion is so big, just walking around takes a lot of effort..."
"You still say that!" Xu Qingqian glared angrily at the slanderous maid in front of her, and then Luzhu lowered her head in understanding.
"Your Majesty, please calm down, this servant deserves to die!"
Xu Qingqian slowly clenched her fists, fearing that if she didn't curry favor with Qinghuang in the East Palace, she would never be able to turn over.
Qinghuang Hall.
Donggong Qinghuang had just woken up, wearing a thin nightgown, sitting in front of the dressing mirror, holding a sandalwood comb and combing her long hair absentmindedly.
The maid Fang Fei walked in from outside the house, handed a letter with both hands, and said: "Your Majesty, Xu Liangdi from the Prince's Mansion has sent a letter."
Donggong Qinghuang still looked dull and didn't respond for a long time.
"Empress?" Fang Fei raised her eyebrows slightly, moved the envelope closer and said, "Xu Liangdi has a letter for you."
Dong Gong Qinghuang slowly came back to her senses. She took the envelope and opened it. Xu Qingqian didn't have the courage to write anything treacherous, but he just wanted to communicate with her to express feelings.
She read a few lines, then threw it on the dressing table with a bored look, sighed softly, and said: "What's the use of writing this? Can I still go out?"
Seeing Donggong Qinghuang's dull expression, Fangfei also looked worried. If this continues, the empress will definitely fall ill from boredom.
She bit her lip, frowned and said: "My Lady, it's not an option to keep going like this. I heard that Your Majesty went to Changyun Palace today. If Your Majesty doesn't please Your Majesty, I'm afraid she will lose your favor. I heard that Wen Liang is so powerful.
Very, it’s not just a year or two since I was favored. Over the years, there have been an endless stream of favored concubines in the harem. The only ones who have always been favored are the gentle ones, except for the former Concubine Ling. She is not an easy character to deal with.
..."
Hearing this, Dong Gong Qinghuang glanced at her and said: "It doesn't matter, if you want to fight for favor, let her fight for it. It's better to be left out, and I will be clean."
Hearing Dong Gong Qinghuang's dejected words, Fang Fei frowned and said: "My dear, you don't want to fight for anything but your character and are those bitch jokes in the harem? Those who want to see you make a fool of yourself, you are favored.
How many people are waiting for you to come down soon..."
Dong Gong Qinghuang continued to comb her smooth black silk and said, "Didn't you say so? I am young and I don't want to fool around with them."
"My empress, even if your heart is not there, you can't lose face. Besides, with your Majesty's favor, you can walk more freely. When the time comes, you should still have a chance to go to the Prince's Mansion." Fang Fei said earnestly.
Advise.
Hearing this, Dong Gong Qinghuang's eyes suddenly flashed with light. She narrowed her red phoenix eyes slightly, tightened her fingers on the comb, looked at herself in the bronze mirror, biting her lips, as if thinking about something.
What are you wearing?
Changyun Palace.
Actors played elegant music through the bead curtain, and elegant incense burned in the room.
Bei Gonglie, who was lying on the beauty's couch, felt upset for a while, and began to feel a faint tingling sensation in his head again. He raised his hand and waved irritably, and his tone was impatient: "Go, go, go, all of them are gone to me."
Get out!"
The actors immediately stopped playing, bowed their heads and bowed before retreating.
The gentle man who was pouring tea paused slightly, looked at Bei Gonglie and raised his hand to rub his temples, walked to his side, raised his hand to massage his head with a gentle technique, and said: "Your Majesty, your head is over again."
Are you in pain?"
Hearing that gentle voice, most of Bei Gonglie's arrogance disappeared. He exhaled gently, smelled the elegant fragrance coming from her wrist, and said: "Mr. Gentleman, you are better than them."<
/p>
Hearing this, Wen Liangren smiled lightly and said: "So Your Majesty is looking for me. I know that Your Majesty's head hurts again. It's true. I would rather Your Majesty not come to this Changyun Palace. I just hope that Your Majesty can
Comfortable and healthy.”
Bei Gonglie slowly closed his eyes, enjoying her massage techniques, and said: "Look what you said, I can't come to see you if I have nothing to do? I have been neglecting you recently, isn't this coming?"
