After the Queen went to the Queen Mother to pay her respects, she went directly to the Royal Study. She knew that Long Chuxia did not return to the palace last night. She had never been able to hide the affairs of the harem. She just didn't know what the Emperor would do if he came to see her.
Because the queen likes Zhuge Tengfei, she has been feeling guilty over the years and feels sorry for the emperor. Because of this, she does her best to take care of the affairs of the harem for her. Even if she is run against, she does not complain at all.
In fact, when she learned that the emperor liked Long Chuxia, she felt uncomfortable for a moment. After all, the emperor was the person she loved, but she was a woman who knew what she wanted. She knew that the emperor could not give her happiness, and she also
She couldn't give the emperor what he wanted, so she had already put a lock on her heart. This lock let her know whether to advance or retreat.
Therefore, before Feng Lingxiao went to court, she calmly waited for him at the door of the imperial study room.
Feng Lingxiao was surrounded by palace people. She saw from a distance that his face was cold and his eyebrows were filled with sadness. She guessed that it was related to Long Chuxia's absence all night.
"I am here to see you, Your Majesty!" She saluted politely!
Feng Lingxiao said calmly: "Come in!" Manager Li walked in front and opened the door of the imperial study room.
A group of ministers who wanted to discuss state affairs with the emperor were waiting outside the door. When they saw the queen, they stood aside politely and met the emperor according to the priority of the matter.
The queen entered the royal study, but even Manager Li was turned away.
Feng Lingxiao sat on the throne, frowned at the queen, and said: "Sit!"
The Queen thanked her and sat on the Taishi's chair in the hall. She didn't say anything to her, she just sat quietly with her hands folded on her knees, calm and elegant.
However, as soon as Feng Lingxiao opened her mouth, her composure was completely shattered. Feng Lingxiao looked at her and said seriously: "You and Zhuge Tengfei leave, you must not care about the queen's position!"
The queen turned pale and hurriedly knelt down, "Your Majesty, I am guilty!" She said she was guilty, instead of trying to defend herself. She was guilty because her heart was really cheating. She remembered what Liang Cairen said.
After all, that woman who had no regrets until her death knew that since the emperor said these words, he must have known everything. She didn't think she could hide it with excuses.
Feng Lingxiao said slowly: "I have no intention of blaming you. I know the word "can't help it". Besides, I asked Zhuge Tengfei and he also has a soft spot for you. Since you two truly love each other, it is natural for me to be beautiful as an adult!
"
The queen looked up at Feng Lingxiao in shock. What shocked her heart was not only Feng Lingxiao's fulfillment, but also what Feng Lingxiao said. He actually told the emperor himself that he had feelings for her...
Solitary?
"But..." Feng Lingxiao suddenly changed the subject and her expression became serious, "I need your help!"
The queen couldn't tell what she was feeling at the moment. She didn't know whether the emperor was sincere or fake. Would he blame Zhuge Tengfei? They had been married for more than ten years, and she really couldn't tell what he was thinking now.
But now he said that he wanted to ask her for help. Regardless of whether it was true or not, he listened and then asked, "I wonder what the emperor wants my concubine to help with?"
Feng Lingxiao was silent for a moment and said, "I don't know what to say either!"
The queen was very surprised. After thinking about it carefully, she thought it might be related to Long Chuxia, and asked tentatively: "Is it related to Chuxia?"
Feng Lingxiao's face was solemn, he looked up at the queen, his brows were a little tangled, and said: "I want to make her my queen!"
With one sentence, the queen's doubts were allayed. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Has the emperor asked her what she meant?"
Feng Lingxiao shook her head: "I didn't ask, I was afraid she would refuse!"
This sentence touched the queen a little. In the past, no matter what happened, he would never show any weakness in his heart. Now he actually told her that he was afraid of being taken seriously in his heart. At least he would tell himself his feelings. This was probably
After getting rid of the so-called status of husband and wife, the two started to get along as friends.
"What the emperor means is that he wants me to ask Chu Xia?" the queen guessed.
Feng Ling looked at her steadily with a smile, "Based on your understanding of her, do you think she will be willing to stay in the palace?"
The queen thought for a moment and said: "Not necessarily, the position of queen is not a temptation to her!"
"Then what is temptation for her?" Feng Lingxiao asked hurriedly
The queen said discouragedly: "To be honest, I have always seen people thoroughly, but I have never understood Chu Xia. She seems to be very cold, but very enthusiastic, just like what happened with Liang Cairen, and her
It doesn't matter, but she is willing to take risks to help her. She doesn't seem to care about anything, but even snacks are very important. She doesn't want people to follow her, but she doesn't find the hedgehogs around her annoying! If she says she doesn't want to stay
In the palace, the concubine must not even know the reason."
After hearing the Queen's analysis, Feng Lingxiao felt even more unsure. If he hadn't seen her with King Qingping last night, he could have comforted himself by saying that she had some feelings for him, but after seeing it with his own eyes, how could he deceive himself?
?
He said dejectedly: "Could it be that I really want to bring her and Qingping together?"
The Queen was slightly startled, "Your Majesty, what do you mean?"
Feng Lingxiao glanced at the Queen and said solemnly: "Last night, she spent the night at Prince Qingping's Mansion, and I saw her and Qingping hugging each other affectionately with my own eyes!"
The queen was shocked. It seemed that the emperor's feelings for Long Chuxia were much deeper than she expected. It turned out that he wanted to use the position of queen to trap her, but because of Chuxia's temperament, if she fell in love with King Qingping, she would never
If you become queen again, all your hard work will be in vain.
Manager Li's voice came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, Mr. Zhuge and Prince Qingping want to see you!"
Feng Ling smiled and frowned, and said: "I have something to discuss with the queen, so I want to ask them what's important!"
Manager Li said in a low voice through the door: "Miss Long is missing!"
The door was quickly opened. Feng Lingxiao saw the ministers outside, so he calmed down and said, "Come in and talk!"
Zhuge Tengfei and King Qingping went in together
King Qingping closed the door and said in a deep voice: "Ling, I know you saw me and Chu Xia together last night, but you misunderstood something. We didn't hug each other very affectionately. It's just that she was not feeling well last night.
After I rested on my shoulder for a while and arrived at the palace, she said she wanted to return to the palace in a hurry. She didn't even enter the palace gate today. I entered the palace today just to ask her if she was feeling better. As a result, Brother Zhuge said that she
Didn’t come home all night!”
Feng Ling smiled and asked anxiously: "You said she was in a hurry to return to the palace? But I waited for her in Xuantian Pavilion all night, and she never came back! Also, what is wrong with her? Why didn't I hear her talk about it?
Pass"
King Qingping looked a little embarrassed and hesitated: "This, this, I'm not sure!"
Seeing his evasive expression, the Queen knew that he had something to hide, and said: "Your Majesty, now is not the time to hide anything. Tell me quickly. What is wrong with her? Will she faint on the street?"
King Qingping was startled, "No? It's not that serious? She only said that it's coming and her stomach hurts!" King Qingping blushed and said awkwardly
Feng Lingxiao felt a sharp pain in her chest. She even told him such a private matter? What does this mean?
