Jian Xiao spent the entire banquet in a thrilling way. She had been thinking about her position and the dangers she faced. How many times had she thought about it, otherwise she would just go back in time. Even if she did not complete the task, Professor Yang and the others would probably
She won’t embarrass herself, but in fact, although Jian Xiao is said to be deep in the palace, she has never visited Wangchuan Lake, the place where she returned.
The banquet was very exquisite, the music was nice, and the singing and dancing were very moving, but Jian Xiao felt uneasy because of her mood.
During the banquet, Jian Xiao slipped out to breathe some fresh air. She sat in the corridor of Jufang Palace and looked at the full moon tonight. She leaned on the corridor and enjoyed the early spring night. She took a deep breath and could faintly smell the light.
of floral fragrance
"Why doesn't Miss Jian Xiao come in? Don't you like the party?" a strange female voice remembered.
Jian Xiao turned around. She was one of the concubines. She had a high nose, deep eye sockets, blue eyes, and fair and transparent skin. She had the style of a border minority. If I remember correctly, she seemed to be Yan Fei.
Jian Xiao turned around, smiled, and hurriedly saluted, "I've seen Concubine Yan!"
Concubine Yan came over and helped her up, "Get up quickly, maybe I will have to salute you in two days."
"Your Majesty, you are joking. I am just a little palace maid. Where do I get my blessing?" Jian Xiao said with a smile.
"It is a good thing that you can be favored by the emperor, it is better than being lonely in the palace."
"With such a character, I think you must be a favored one," Jian Xiao complimented.
Yan Fei didn't speak, just smiled lonely. Jian Xiao raised her head and looked at the moon. The bright white Yan Fei sat next to Jian Xiao and also looked at the moon. "This moon you know, no matter what, it doesn't look as round as the one in your hometown."
"Isn't the empress a local?" Jian Xiao asked
Yan Fei shook her head, "I was sent here for marriage. Our tribe is just a small tribe. In order to survive, I was sent here." At this point, she lowered her head and began to turn the finger on her left hand, with words in her eyes.
sad
The thumb ring is green, but it doesn't look like it's made, but it's old. She probably brought it from the tribe.
"Let's go back!" Concubine Yan stood up and pulled Jian Xiao, "If you don't go back, the emperor will be anxious."
Jian Xiao followed her all the way back. Concubine Yan took two steps. Jian Xiao followed Concubine Yan and slowly returned to Zhang Qin.
"Go out and get some fresh air?" Zhang Qin asked considerately.
Jian Xiao nodded, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."
Zhang Qin signaled that the maid next to him poured a glass of wine for Jian Xiao. Zhang Qin picked up the cup and handed it to Jian Xiao, "Drink something to warm yourself up."
The moment Jian Xiao took the wine glass, there was a "bang" sound. Jian Xiao and Zhang Qin looked over at the same time. A concubine's wine glass fell to the ground. Jian Xiao looked over and did not recognize the woman's eyes, but she had resentment in her eyes. She did not know how to do it anyway.
will forget
The next day is March 16th. There is a tradition in the Biga Kingdom. Every year, the 16th emperor will go on a tour to observe the public sentiment and to inspect the performance. The time spent on the tour is related to the distance. This time, it is scheduled to last about three or four days.
about
Jian Xiao took the list of things Zhang Qin wanted to bring item by item, from clothes to things needed for the journey. Jian Xiao was afraid that she would miss something. "Have you got His Majesty's boots? They are for rainy days."
"The official said it hasn't rained these days. Why are you wearing these rain boots?" Zhang Qin walked in and asked.
"I see that most of what your Majesty is interviewing this time is farmland, and work has already begun at this time. Your Majesty must go to the fields for a walk. The rain boots come in handy because the ground is moist, which will save your feet from sinking into the mud and catching cold."
Jian Xiao said without raising her head, and then faced the list, "There are also cloaks. I'd rather bring more than less."
Zhang Qin's heart felt warm, and he suddenly strode forward, hugged Jian Xiao from behind, and whispered in his ear, "Have you figured it out?"
Jian Xiao trembled and said calmly: "Your Majesty misunderstood that Jian Xiao was just doing his duty as a servant!"
The moment Zhang Qin's hands touched Jian Xiao, he remembered the fragrant scene in the bath that day, and his whole body was on fire. He could feel Jian Xiao's soft skin through the clothes. She did not apply makeup but had a delicate fragrance.
, Zhang Qin took a deep breath and shouted his name in a low voice: "Jian Xiao..."
Jian Xiao, who was hugged, pulled Zhang Qin's hand hard and said: "Your Majesty, don't forget your promise to me."
"Jian Xiao, if I want you now, who dares to stop me?" Zhang Qin gasped heavily.
"Don't break your trust with me! Your Majesty!" Jian Xiao said calmly, "It's getting late, Your Majesty should prepare to leave." Jian Xiao let go of Zhang Qin's hand
Zhang Qin felt disappointed, "You won't come with me?"
Jian Xiao shook his head, "Your Majesty's trip is a state matter, it is not appropriate to take Jian Xiao with you." Jian Xiao actually had some plans in mind. Zhang Qin had been walking for several days, and he could have taken a nice walk in the Imperial Garden, and by the way, he was looking for something near Wangchuan Lake.
I will go back to the place where I put it on. If I am not so determined in my heart, I will go back by myself.
Lake Wangchuan is a natural lake in the Imperial Garden. It is said that it comes from an underground spring and does not freeze in winter. Lake Wangchuan is located in the center of the Imperial Garden. It is surrounded by lake water, adding a lot of scenery, flowers, plants, fish and birds.
, pavilions and pavilions are dotted among them, which looks quite interesting.
Jian Xiao walked up the covered bridge, and the koi carp gathered together under the bridge. The flowers in the garden were not yet blooming. Jian Xiao just broke off a few green leaves and threw them into the lake. The fish immediately gathered together and bit the leaves.
Like a child who hasn't eaten for several days, Jian Xiao couldn't help but laugh out loud
"Hey, where did this wild girl come from? How dare you tease my koi?" came a harsh voice.
Jian Xiao looked sideways, and saw a woman in pink clothes walking over, surrounded by a group of palace maids. Jian Xiao recognized this as the concubine whose wine glass fell to the floor at the last banquet. Jian Xiao did not know her name.
She bowed her head and said hello: "Empress Jin An"
A pair of embroidered shoes appeared in front of Jian Xiao, and she coughed lightly, "Why don't you raise your head? Didn't you have a lot of fun lifting it yesterday?"
Jian Xiao still lowered her head, "I don't dare!"
"Now you call yourself a slave? How could I hear this, and you call yourself Jian Xiao? Bah!" Jian Xiao felt some spittle fall on her face, and a mouthful of phlegm fell in front of her, "I have only been in the palace for a few days.
, you can’t even tell the difference between elder and younger?”
Jian Xiao remained silent
"Why aren't you talking? Don't you usually make the emperor happy?" The woman continued, and then she touched Jian Xiao's chin with her bright nails and hooked it hard.
Jian Xiao raised her head, but her eyes were lowered, not looking directly at her. "Tsk, tsk, with such a coquettish look, is she worthy of sleeping with you? You! Look at me!"
