A cold sweat broke out in my heart.

Originally, when I got up in the morning, I was covered in cold sweat, and I completely wet my close-fitting clothes, because I didn't care about taking care of Miaoyan, but at this time, there was another burst of cold sweat, soaked into the clothes that had not dried before, and I only felt that my body was cold, as if my skin was covered with ice.

I shuddered.

When he raised his head, his face was already pale, Chang Qing was originally cautious to ask that sentence, but when he looked down at me, he was startled, and suddenly looked at me with wide eyes.

It seems that even she believes it.

Pei Yuanhao still sat there still, two powerful fingers slowly stroked the warm jade cicada in his hand, and there was still a hint of a vague smile on the corner of his mouth: "The queen asked this is-"

Chang Qing looked back at him, hurriedly cleaned up his panicked eyes, and said, "After all, this is a matter of the harem. ”

“……”

"The emperor ordered his concubines to lead the harem, if--if Yan Qingqing accepted the favor again, then the concubines would naturally have to make an arrangement for Yan Qingqing."

"So, how are you going to arrange it?"

The more I said this, the more it seemed to be true, the beads of sweat on my forehead had condensed, one by one, and one of them fell squarely on the back of the hand on my lap, and she raised her head and looked at me with chirping eyes.

She was so quiet that she probably wouldn't understand what kind of ordeal her mother was going through now.

Pei Yuanhao's words were almost indicating something, Yang Jinqiao, who had been holding his lower abdomen and standing next to him with a pale face, was also a little uncontrollable at this time, raised his head to look at me, with a shocked look on his face, and his eyes seemed to be asking-How could you?

yes, how could I?

However, if Pei Yuanhao is allowed to continue talking, probably even she thinks that I am true-yes.

Thinking of this, my scalp was numb, and I suddenly stood up and said to Chang Qing: "By the way, Niangniang, I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived in Lanyang and is managing the affairs of the river embankment. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has such a feat at a young age, which is really gratifying, and the queen mother has taught him well. ”

Just when all the women were staring, watching, and caring about the honor of the harem, I suddenly said such a sentence, like suddenly piercing a spear in the flowery imperial garden, which not only spoiled the scenery, but also frightened people, and several concubines next to me looked at me, and their eyes were like looking at monsters.

Cold sweat was also running out on my back, but on my face, except for the sweat stains just now, there was not even a drop of sweat.

Chang Qing was stunned for a moment and looked back at me.

"How do you know? The whereabouts of the crown prince are not known to the main palace. ”

"Ah, it was last night that the emperor's majesty thoroughly reviewed the recital, and when I talked about it, the folk girl overheard it when she was accompanying the princess."

……

Suddenly, the entire dormitory fell silent.

All eyes suddenly looked at the bookcase placed on the other side of the dormitory, and there was a large stack of folds on it, which was reviewed by Pei Yuanhao last night.

Although I accompanied Miao Yan last night, and I didn't care about what Pei Yuanhao had reviewed outside, but when I was sleeping hazy, I heard his happy laughter, and Father-in-law Yu took the opportunity to gossip a few words, and Pei Yuanhao told him what was going on on the fold.

It just so happened that I heard it all.

At that time, I was also half-asleep, so I didn't care, but at this moment, this matter helped me a lot.

As soon as Chang Qing saw the mountain of folds on the table, he immediately said, "It turns out that the emperor was reviewing the folds all night last night." ”

As soon as the words fell, a few sighs of relief in the crowd were clearly heard.

I breathed a long sigh of relief in my own heart.

Although—I did wake up in his arms this morning, and I don't know what he did to me when he climbed into bed, at least, for the sake of face, this must be covered!

Pei Yuanhao's face sank slightly, I don't know if it was because seeing that stack of folds reminded him of the tricky government affairs he was facing, or because he was now in the night when I flatly denied it, I only glanced at his eyes that suddenly turned black, and I also knew that I had annoyed him.

But now, it's not a question of whether to annoy him or not.

No matter what my current identity is, no matter who the person in my heart is, I don't want to be dragged into this harem again, and I don't want to be one of these flowers and willows in front of me one day.

So, I said: "His Majesty the Emperor has been reviewing the folds all night, which is very hard, and the people really shouldn't disturb the Emperor and the ladies here." ”

After saying that, I reached out and took Miao Yan's hand.

"Wonderful words, we-"

Before I could finish my sentence, a cold voice interrupted me: "You finish the meal first." ”

“……”

My heart pounded, and I looked up at him.

Pei Yuanhao was still sitting there, and he didn't even change his posture, but the two fingers stroking the jade cicada were pinching the jade cicada's depression at the moment, and the joints were white, as if they were straining all the time.

If it weren't for the hard jade cicada, I was afraid that everything in his hand would be crushed.

For some reason, I suddenly remembered the wine glass he had broken in front of us.

At this moment, I don't even suspect that he might want to take my throat in his hands.

Chang Qing didn't know what to say for a while, and stood there blankly.

Pei Yuanhao lowered his head and didn't look at me, but said coldly: "Didn't you hear my words?" ”

“……”

There was another silence, I took Miaoyan's hand, my palms were full of cold sweat, I didn't even know what to do next, what to do, the jade father-in-law outside walked in at this time, smiled and said: "Miss Yan watched Her Royal Highness the princess last night, even if it is an iron beater, you can't stand it, the emperor feels sorry for you, sit down." ”

After saying that, he pulled a brocade stool in front of me and dusted it with the whisk in his hand.

Actually, it was very inappropriate for him to do this, after all, there was still a table of food in front of him, but when he did this, he looked up at me and frowned vigorously.

……

I was silent for a moment, then finally let go of Miaoyan's hand, took a step over, nodded and confessed to the ladies and women, and then sat down.

As he sat down, some breathed a sigh of relief.

Pei Yuanhao continued: "Serve her rice. ”

Father-in-law Yu personally stepped forward, filled me with a bowl of porridge and carefully put it in my hand, and said with a smile: "Miss Yan, please use it." ”

I was holding the dishes and chopsticks, but my fingers seemed to be frozen, and I didn't know how to use them, so I said to the group of concubines in front of me who were still a little at a loss: "You, and those who haven't had breakfast, do you want to sit down?" ”

“……”

These words are said calmly, but who dares to sit down.

Concubine Ning Yang Jinqiao was the first to say: "The emperor forgives the sin, the concubine is a little unwell, so she retired first." ”

After speaking, he turned around and took Xiao Jia away.

Immediately afterwards, some excused themselves that there was something in the palace, some excused themselves to be unwell, and several concubines retired one after another, and finally, Chang Qing also walked to Pei Yuanhao's side, calmly bowed to the ground, and said: "Your Majesty, the princess's condition has improved, which is a great joy, but please cherish the emperor and don't consume the dragon body for state affairs." The concubine retired first. ”

Pei Yuanhao finally gave her a little face, and nodded: "You go back." Your health is not good, so don't run around so early in the morning in the future. ”

"The concubine knows."

With that, she also left.

There is still Nangong Lizhu left.

When those concubines were already in a mess just now, she was the first to come quietly, and she kept standing next to her, like an outsider watching coldly, but now, all the people are gone, and she, an outsider, is naturally going to enter the game.

Pei Yuanhao finally raised his head to look at her.

A faint smile appeared on Nangong Lizhu's face, and then said: "The emperor is not strange, the concubine doesn't want to rely on the emperor for breakfast. ”

Pei Yuanhao looked at her, and his angry eyebrows softened a little: "What are you talking about." ”

"The concubine is joking with the emperor," she smiled, her smile was full of well-behaved and considerate, as if she was really driven by her virtuous kindness when she came over early in the morning, and said with a smile: "The concubine just wants to see the princess again." ”

"Oh?"

"Speaking of which, the concubine has never seen the usual princess, what is it like?"

“……”

"Presumably, it must be very well-behaved, right?"

Pei Yuanhao's originally cold face softened a little more at this moment, as if it was blown by a warm wind, and there was more tenderness flowing in his eyebrows and eyes.

He was silent for a moment, then said, "Yes." ”

"The concubine really hopes that Her Royal Highness the princess can recover as soon as possible and become the lively and lovely little girl that the emperor talked about."

She said as she took a step towards Wonderful Words.

I immediately put the dishes and chopsticks in my hand on the table.

However, she also only went one step.

That step was just a distance away from me that would not anger me, and then, Nangong Lizhu bent down and said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness Princess, do you know how many people in this palace are looking forward to you getting better, if you are well, the emperor's heart will also be cured." ”

“……”

"And I, I ......"

As she spoke, her eyes suddenly turned red, her voice choked, and she stood up as if she couldn't speak, and wiped her somewhat reddened nose with her fingertips.

Pei Yuanhao looked at her, and suddenly his voice was soft: "Zhu'er ......"

Nangong Lizhu hurriedly reached out to cover my own mouth, took a deep breath, and then smiled reluctantly: "The concubine is fine." ”

“……”

"Your Majesty, you still have to dine with Her Royal Highness the princess, and the concubine will retire first."

With that, she turned and walked out.

Ruizhu, who had been waiting on the side, also hurriedly stepped forward to hold her arm at this time, and when the master and servant were about to step out, Nangong Lizhu suddenly stopped, looked back at me, and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine still has a word to say." ”

“…… You said. ”

"Miss Yan, as the mother of Her Royal Highness the Princess, if she still wants to accompany the princess in the palace-" She smiled and said, "I'm afraid, her identity in this harem, the emperor should also worry." ”
