After Zhao Zongheng came out of Changning Palace, he turned towards Fengwu Palace.
Si Ningchi originally thought that since Zhao Zongheng went to the Chaoyang Princess Palace today, he would not come out for a while. The small hot pot that he didn't eat yesterday was put on the table again today. The pot was not even hot, just look at it.
We arrived at Zhao Zongheng who wandered into the palace.
Why is he still lingering?
"It smells so good..." Zhao Zongheng's eyes lit up and he sat next to Si Ningchi.
"Didn't the Emperor go to the Princess Chaoyang Palace to have a meal?" Si Ningchi frowned slightly and looked at Zhao Zongheng and said, "Why, the Princess Chaoyang Palace is short of food for the Emperor?"
"I'm not full." Zhao Zongheng stared at the small boiler in front of him and said, "The pot is boiling."
Then he quickly reached out and picked up the chopsticks and started to rinse the meat.
But it’s really yours. After eating with Si Ningchi for a while, you became so proficient.
After a small hot pot meal, the two of them had a shiny face. Si Ningchi took a few sips of tea and rested for a while. He really couldn't stand the smell of hot pot on his body. He turned around and called Su Yun to prepare a bath for bathing. Zhao Zongheng didn't say anything or left.
.
When Si Ningchi entered the bathroom, he immediately put down the tea cup in his hand and got in.
"?" Si Ningchi looked at Zhao Zongheng who was following him, and immediately tightened his belt. What did this bitch want to do!
"I'm here to help you." Zhao Zongheng said with a serious look on his face that he would wait for her to take a bath.
"I have hands and feet, so I won't trouble the emperor." Si Ningchi didn't believe him, but Zhao Zongheng refused to go out and scooped up water for Si Ningchi very considerately, looking like a pleaser.
.
Si Ningchi couldn't resist him, so he simply took off his outer robe and lay down on the wooden cushions, spreading his hair and letting Zhao Zongheng do whatever he wanted.
Zhao Zongheng originally had bad intentions, but when he actually sat down and started washing Si Ningchi's hair, he found it novel again. He scooped up water to rinse her black hair, tied up his sleeves and gently rubbed her hair.
Silk, for fear that he would pull her hair too hard.
Why hadn't he noticed before that the queen's hair was so smooth and beautiful?
Zhao Zongheng lowered his head and smelled the essential oil placed next to him. The familiar fragrance suddenly made him realize. No wonder he always smelled this sweet fragrance every time he got close to the queen. He thought women were born like this.
The case was solved, it turned out to be this thing.
Si Ningchi narrowed his eyes and commanded: "Your Majesty, please pat my concubine's head."
Zhao Zongheng: "..."
Do you really treat him as a slave?
Zhao Zongheng stretched out his hand casually and pressed her head. Seeing Si Ningchi's frown, before she could open her eyes and get angry, he bent over and kissed her, directly blocking Si Ningchi's smile.
Said: "Don't make a sound."
Si Ningchi blinked and looked at Zhao Zongheng who was approaching him with a smile in his eyes. He stared at him for a while and then said: "If you don't dry your hair, I will catch the cold. Your Majesty."
Responsible."
Zhao Zongheng reached out and took the towel on the side, lowered his eyes and carefully wiped the water stains from her hair.
Si Ningchi opened his eyes and looked at him, and suddenly felt that it would be very exciting if the emperor became serious like this.
"The Emperor will stay at Fengwu Palace tonight?" Si Ningchi sat up, wiped the water stains from his hair, raised his eyes and looked at Zhao Zongheng and said.
This was probably the first time that Si Ningchi took the initiative to mention the emperor's stay. Zhao Zongheng's heart trembled and his throat tightened slightly. He stared at Si Ningchi for a while before coughing lightly and said: "Let's stay."<
/p>
The dark eyes were filled with a bit of uncontrollable joy, and the tips of his ears turned red as he thought of something.
Si Ningchi witnessed Zhao Zongheng's instant transformation with his own eyes, and the smile in his eyes became even bigger. Looking at Zhao Zongheng's impatient look, seeing that the time was ripe, he said softly: "Then I will let Su Yun take care of me."
Clean up the side hall."
Zhao Zongheng, who had been excited for a long time: "...?"
Si Ningchi said with a very natural look: "I am not in good health, and it is not convenient for me to sleep with the emperor."
……
When Zhao Zongheng came out of Fengwu Palace, his whole person smelled of decadence, and he had accomplished nothing.
Alas——!
"Your Majesty, the Holy King is waiting for the Emperor to receive you at the Xuanming Hall." Wang Chengxiang came to Zhao Zongheng's side and said, "He said that he wanted to discuss with the Emperor the matters related to King Lu's entry into Beijing."
"Yeah." Zhao Zongheng calmed down, responded and headed towards Xuanming Hall.
King Lu's visit to the capital was not a trivial matter. He arrived in the capital just one day before the emperor's birthday. He heard that many treasures brought by King Lu to the emperor were also brought to the capital. The emperor was very generous, and most of the jewels were sent to the harem.<
/p>
Each palace received many rewards, but the Queen's Palace received too many treasures.
White jade, coral, pearls and emeralds are all piled up and down the tables and chairs in Fengwu Palace, and the emperor is still moving them into Fengwu Palace.
Si Ningchi pulled out two pearls and frowned as he looked at the things that were being delivered one after another: "Is your Majesty using Fengwu Palace as a warehouse?"
"Your Majesty, these are all treasures presented to the Emperor by King Lu Jin." Su Yun said with a smile: "Our Emperor has sent some of everything, isn't it just piled up?"
"They are all common things. I have no need for this palace." Si Ningchi was not interested. She had no shortage of food and clothing in this palace. These things were just piled in ashes. There was nothing new and novel. She herself
Not interested.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Just as he was saying this, he suddenly saw Su Yongde running in from outside in a hurry, and ran to Si Ningchi with a somewhat anxious expression.
"Your Majesty, there are two new beauties in the palace." Su Yongde said in a low voice with a somewhat ugly face: "They are the women presented to the emperor by King Lu. The emperor has just decreed that the two women will be named beauties and they will enter the palace tomorrow.
”
"What!?" The smile that had just appeared on Suyun's face disappeared in an instant. Looking at the jewelry in the room, he suddenly realized that the emperor was trying to please the empress and was just waiting to be crowned a beauty!
Su Yongde said with a tangled look on his face: "I saw with my own eyes that King Lu brought two beauties into the palace and presented them to the emperor, and the emperor actually accepted them!"
Si Ningchi curved his lips and smiled and said: "What kind of beauty can the emperor take into the palace after just one glance?"
Si Ningchi smiled with a smile on his face, sighed and said expectantly: "I really want to meet you."
She didn't feel angry at all. She knew with her brain that since the emperor valued King Lu, he must have some involvement with him. The two women just accepted it, and they would not offend King Lu no matter what.
Kindness.
Accepting two women into the palace is also a statement to King Lu about his attitude. As for the women who have entered the palace, whether they live or die is another matter.
