The night was a little late.

After the egg custard incident, Concubine Li has not eaten.

She also didn't allow the palace people to prepare it for her.

She sat on her big bed, neatly dressed, as if she was waiting for someone.

"Mother, it's late at night, don't sit still........."

"No, he hasn't come yet. ”

"Niangniang, the slave maid has asked, the emperor will go to Concubine De Niangniang tonight, and he will not come. ”

"He's probably just going to eat. ”

"........!"

Peach Blossom looked at Concubine Li's appearance helplessly.

Sitting stupidly waiting for someone who is unlikely to come, her mother has done no less.

At night, I always wear clothes neatly, and I never fall asleep when I am not in my child.

The slightest disturbance outside would wake her up.

"Peach Blossom, pour me a cup of tea, I'm a little thirsty. ”

"Yes, sis. ”

Peach Blossom picked up the porcelain bone cup on the table and poured a full glass of water.

After what happened just now, Peach Blossom's vigilance is also much stronger.

She carefully took out a silver needle and checked the glass of water many times.

Concubine Li looked at Peach Blossom's serious appearance from the side, and was a lot more relieved.

At least he has a faithful servant.

"Mother, pay attention to your body. ”

Peach Blossom walked over and handed the bone china cup to Concubine Li.

She watched Concubine Li peck at the water one by one, and she couldn't bear it anymore.

"Eat something, mother! I'll be hungry!"

"I can't eat anything today. Don't ask me. ”

Concubine Li held the cup in both hands, and wisps of white smoke floated from the glass.

The heat was steaming, and Concubine Li's face was a little red.

Her eyes were hidden behind the white smoke, and she couldn't see anything.

She was a little stiff, and she looked like two people who were usually in high spirits.

"Why don't you drink some porridge...... Today, the emperor went to Concubine De's mother, and tomorrow I don't know how many good plays she will direct and perform. ”

Peach Blossom was a little worried.

She didn't like Concubine De at all.

From the first time I saw her, I didn't have any good feelings, and later because she had some relationship with her mother, she didn't like this concubine even more.

She always makes people feel very hypocritical, and she feels this way when she does anything or says anything.

But she can't go against Concubine De, after all, she is now Concubine Li's eldest palace maid, and being too alienated from Concubine De will also cause chaos to his mother.

"Concubine De loves to act, so just accompany her to act. ”

Concubine Li poured the last sip of water into her mouth, her eyes clear.

"Can the lady rest? It's so late. ”

"No, I'm going to wait until I can't fall asleep today........."

At this moment, there is Concubine De who can't sleep like her.

Since the emperor entered her Shaohua Palace, she has been a little stiff.

It stands to reason that today is not the day when she can sleep, and the emperor must have other things to do today.

Thinking of the previous incident, she now has a slight fear of the emperor.

She knew that Concubine Li was poisoned today, and the emperor must know about it.

It's just that she is really not sure whether the emperor has taken this matter to heart.

"You've done a good job with your yolk pumpkin today. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the compliment. ”

"It's just a little sweet to eat a few more chopsticks, and next time you call the cook, you can put less sugar. ”

"The concubine remembered, and the emperor will do it in the future. ”

Since the emperor is silent, then she is also silent.

Play stupid, everyone will.

finally got to dinner, but the emperor still had no intention of leaving.

She knew that the emperor didn't like to stay in the harem.

In the past, even the attendants called their concubines to the Ju'an Palace.

Today, not only did he not say that he wanted to go back, but even peeled walnuts by her soft couch.

"Your Majesty, just leave this kind of thing to the palace people, you don't have to do it........."

"I finished reading the excerpt early today, and this hand is idle anyway, so I want to be active, and I can accompany you by the way. ”

Cheng Qing said, raising his head.

A pair of good-looking Ruifeng eyes squinted slightly.

He looked deeply at Concubine De's face, and there was a faint smile on his lips.

"The Emperor..... Emperor..... You, you should take a break, you are very tired on weekdays, and now when you finally have time, you can rest more. ”

She turned out to be a little weak-hearted.

"Okay, since Concubine Ai wants me to rest, then I will rest. ”

"Concubine Gong ........"

"Who said I was leaving, I slept in your Shaohua Hall tonight. ”

"Hmm..... Huh?"

"By the way, can you prepare for the family banquet the day after tomorrow?"

"The concubine is already preparing for ........."

"Very well, then prepare well. Come and rest. ”

"Your Majesty, the concubine is the one today.... ...... day"

Concubine De blushed and lowered her head and whispered.

Is there a mistake, didn't she stay overnight on the day she came to Kwai Shui?

"Haha, Concubine Ai is really interesting, did I say what I want to do when I say I want to rest?"

"Hmm..... The Emperor ......"

Concubine De's face turned even redder, and she was about to burn her neck.

She looked at the ground beneath her feet, her eyes floating from side to side.

Today's emperor is really wrong.

After the palace people cleaned up, they changed their clothes and were finally able to sleep.

The bed in Shaohua Palace is huge.

On weekdays, Concubine De is always panicked when she sleeps alone, but today there was suddenly one more person by her side, and she suddenly became nervous.

I'm afraid that my small actions on weekdays will not disturb the emperor's rest.

In the past, she went to bed and went back to the palace to sleep by herself after she was done.

Because the emperor has always disliked having people around him to sleep with him.

So she has been married into the harem for so many years, and in fact, she has never really shared a bed with the emperor.

Tonight, for the first time, she had been lying quietly side by side with this man.

She had insomnia.

She wanted to turn around and see if the people around her were asleep, but she didn't dare.

She was afraid of waking him up.

"Can't sleep?"

"Hmm..... Your Majesty, you haven't slept yet?"

"I can't sleep. ”

"Is it the concubine who makes you uncomfortable here?"

She wanted to get up and take a look, but was held down by the people around her.

"No, that's good. It's just that I'm not used to lying on my neck with people. ”

"Is that so........"

Concubine De relaxed a little, but after thinking about it, it still didn't seem right.

"Your Majesty, it's good for the concubines to go to the side hall to sleep, you can sleep here. Tomorrow I have to go to the morning morning ........"

"You're going to the side hall?"

"That's right, the concubine went to the side hall. ”

"Aren't you afraid that tomorrow it will spread that your face will be gone. Even if you don't want to save face, I still have to save face, and when I said it, I actually let a woman sleep in the side hall and occupy her bed by myself. ”

"No, it's the concubine's will. ”

In the dark night, the corners of Cheng Qing's mouth rose slightly.

"Alright, you can rest, I'm leaving. ”

"Hmm......? Your Majesty, now is the time of the son. It's not time to go to court yet. ”

"Well, I've got something to deal with. ”

Concubine De felt a sudden chill around her, and the person who pressed her hand got up.

"The Emperor's ........"

"Decai, I'm going back to Ju'an Palace, get ready. ”

"Yes, the minion is ready. ”

The voice of Decai came from outside the door.

Soon, a group of palace people came in to dress Cheng Qing.

Concubine De suddenly felt a little cold.

The body and heart are a little cold.

"Concubine De, I'll work hard for you the day after tomorrow. ”

"Your Majesty, don't say that. It is an honor for a concubine to help you do things. ”

She got up from the bed and respectfully waited for the emperor to leave.

"Well, I'm gone. ”

"Congratulations to the emperor. ”

The night outside, slightly cool, the palace, is another sleepless night.
