5. Temptation

"The concubine is frightened," Concubine Han immediately got up, bowed down on the side, and when she looked up again, she was teary-eyed, "The emperor is everything to the concubine, and the concubine has never blamed the emperor for half of it." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Emperor Zhou was a little moved, he got up, walked to Concubine Han's side, gently helped Concubine Han up, and said: "Today's move, I am really helpless, Qi Lin is a distinguished guest invited by me, the matter of silk painting is not yet clear, how can I be easily convicted by punishment......"

"But," Concubine Han hurriedly interrupted Emperor Zhou's words, "The concubine saw with her own eyes, Qi Lin chased people, they fought, the silk painting broke, Qi Lin took her green forging ...... with a shocked face"

"Shhhh......h

Emperor Zhou said gently: "These things have frightened you, I don't want you to recall." ”

Emperor Zhou looked at Concubine Han affectionately, and in this woman's beautiful eyes, he saw his own figure.

Concubine Han was very surprised at first, and then her heart beat faster, and her tenderness turned, seeing that Emperor Zhou cared so much about herself, she also looked at Emperor Zhou affectionately, her only man, who relied on her in this life.

Her weak and boneless little hand climbed up the hand between them, gently pulled Emperor Zhou's hand away, she closed her eyes, stood on tiptoe, and slowly leaned over......

After the joy of clouds and rain, Concubine Han snuggled in Emperor Zhou's arms, and her charming face was dyed with a faint flush.

Emperor Zhou sighed, "Qing'er, do you know another reason why I was in a hurry to take Qi Lin away?" ”

Concubine Han raised her head slightly, expressing puzzlement.

"Qi Lin has a very high status in the rivers and lakes, you torture her, if she holds a grudge against you, I don't want to come out next time a person from the rivers and lakes will assassinate you somewhere."

"Oh?" Concubine Han was very surprised, and said with some disdain, "She just learned some martial arts in some famous families, how can she have a high status?" ”

Suddenly, her heart trembled, oh no, this is a secret, she should not know it as a deep palace woman. Concubine Han was a little weak-hearted, nervously feeling Emperor Zhou's reaction.

However, Emperor Zhou seemed to have heard a trivial matter that did not hurt, and then said: "They have their own rules in the rivers and lakes, and we don't understand them." But our court must be fair, and the facts of the case must be clear. I said to Qi Lin that you also care too much about silk paintings, so you lost your sense of proportion. She is the daughter of Taishou, and she is still sensible. ”

Concubine Han nodded, her heart was much more settled, she thought that Emperor Zhou was concerned about her safety, and she didn't think seriously about her words at all. Thinking of this, her heart was very sweet.

She had a lot of things to say to Emperor Zhou, but she knew that she couldn't say it, so Emperor Zhou would punish her.

And Emperor Zhou, who was originally looking at the bed curtain, hooked the corners of his mouth, looking like he was smiling but not smiling, he raised his left hand, turned to look down at Concubine Han in his arms, and gently hooked Concubine Han's chin with his other hand.

He looked at Concubine Han.

Concubine Han's heart beat faster again, the man in front of her was almost forty years old, but the years seemed to polish him more and more handsome. Such a handsome man has a mature and domineering taste, and there is a kind of charm of wiping blood from the edge of a knife. The battlefield of his youth created his strong body, and this man, the king, still let himself fall as he first saw him.

"Qing'er,"

He looked at me so gently again, Concubine Han couldn't take her eyes off, his eyes were like a whirlpool, swirling everything she had.

"Isn't it that I've snubbed you these days, do you have a lot to talk about? I think you're very aggrieved. ”

"I ....." Concubine Han couldn't help but stop talking.

"Don't be so wronged by yourself, you have something to say to me, I am your husband."

"Your Majesty," Concubine Han's eyes were red, and her eyes were full of tears, "The concubine is afraid, afraid that the emperor will include Qi Lin in the harem, the way you look at Qi Lin now is exactly the same as the way you looked at Fang Rou back then." ”

Emperor Zhou's whole body stiffened, his mouth opened slightly, and he wanted to say something, but it was only the movement of his upper and lower lips, he tried his best to control his emotions before continuing the conversation with Concubine Han, "Qing'er, do you know what you're talking about?" ”

"I know," Concubine Han was already crying, "Fang Rou is from Huizhou, a disciple of Bingyan Mountain Villa, and so is Qi Lin. Even if the emperor wants to cure the crimes of the concubines, the concubines still have to say, Fang Rou insisted on leaving the palace back then, and even assassinated you, now Qi Lin, how can the concubines not worry about the emperor's safety. What's more, if Qi Lin enters the palace, where are there still concubines in the eyes of the emperor! ”

Emperor Zhou's mood had stabilized a lot, he put aside Fang Rou's topic, and said with a smile: "When did my Qing'er become so unconfident? ”

Concubine Han choked, "The concubine is afraid that she will be old and yellow, and she will be disgusted." ”

"My Concubine Han will only be immortal and pitiful. As for Na Qilin, she is as old as Yan'er, and I love her as a daughter. ”

Concubine Han looked at Emperor Zhou suspiciously, "The emperor has never left the palace, a few days ago, Commander Qiu suddenly brought Qi Lin to the palace, I thought it was ......"

"Do you still think that I let the stunning beauties in the palace ignore it and go to steal outside the palace?" Emperor Zhou smiled lightly, raised his hand and pinched Concubine Han's small nose, "She is Qi Wenshan's daughter, and she has a little friendship with Commander Qiu, you know, Qiu Xiao is fond of martial arts, and I also occasionally have a few tricks with Qi Lin, thinking about my youth." ”

"Your Majesty is in the prime of life now, so why do you need to think about it." Concubine Han stretched out her white soft silk and hooked Emperor Zhou's neck, "Then why did the emperor let her enter the palace and still live in Zhuxuan?" ”

"Could it be that you let her live in the Forbidden Army Commander's Mansion? In what capacity? Emperor Zhou asked rhetorically.

"Then she lives in the palace......"

"As a distinguished guest," Emperor Zhou said, "play with Yan'er, hasn't Yan'er been clamoring to explore the rivers and lakes, and now I see a person from the rivers and lakes." ”

"Princess Shuhua?" Concubine Han muttered.

"It's a tricky case to handle, but I'm not going to take sides." Emperor Zhou's eyes were firm, and he said in a deep voice: "Also, Concubine Han also has to think clearly, how to remedy this silk painting, there is only half a month, and it will be sacrificed." ”

Concubine Han pursed her lips and nodded.

At this time, the voice of Yuan Yu came from outside: "Emperor Qi, Commander Qiu and Shangshu of the Criminal Department have something important to report." ”

When Concubine Han heard this, she was really angry in her heart, what did she report on the big night!

Emperor Zhou's tone was also a little angry, "Can't you start tomorrow morning?" ”

"The emperor forgives the crime, and the book of the criminal department says that the matter is urgent."

Emperor Zhou sighed, lowered his head and kissed the corner of Concubine Han's mouth, and said with a smile: "Concubine Ai will rest first, I will go to deal with government affairs." ”

Concubine Han was about to explode, but she still had to pretend to be aware of the righteousness, "The emperor is busy with government affairs, how can the concubines disturb, then..."

"It should be late, I won't come, tomorrow morning, I will come to see you."

Concubine Han smiled sweetly, and silently swallowed back the sentence 'Will the emperor come back', according to the plan, she finally looked forward to the emperor, she didn't want anything to go wrong.

Concubine Han quickly got up and changed Emperor Zhou's clothes with gentle movements.

Sitting on the chariot, Emperor Zhou let out a long sigh in his heart, Han Qing mentioned Fang Rou tonight, which he didn't expect. Caught off guard, he was bloodily uncovered the scar in his heart, which made his whole body stiff and speechless. Emperor Zhou rubbed his temples, put the matter aside, and pondered Han Qing's words.

Tonight, Han Qing's words must be true.

He first used Qi Lin's reputation to trick Han Qing's words, if Han Qing didn't know Qi Lin's status in the rivers and lakes, he would definitely ask him. However, Han Qing questioned his words, saying that Qi Lin had just learned some martial arts from some famous families, which showed that someone had told Han Qing about Qi Lin's origin, but he didn't tell the whole story.

Han Qing was provoked by this person, thinking that Qi Lin had entered the palace to compete with her for favor. will cooperate with that person and borrow silk paintings to cause trouble as planned. In this way, this person asked Han Qing to treat Qi Lin like this by taking advantage of the silk painting, which can not only vent his hatred, but also add to his guilt. Second, this person told Han Qing that the back road of Jing pleading guilty, and the fire of destroying the silk painting would not burn on Han Qing's body.

Before, he inexplicably exposed his whereabouts in Huizhou, and Yang Xiao has not been able to find out anything so far.

The person who knew his whereabouts was either the same person who revealed the news to Han Qing, or they were the same gang!

So who is this man? knew that he was out of the palace, but he didn't hurt the killer, and told Han Qing the origin of Qi Lin, but he didn't say the origin of his relationship with Qi Lin.

Min Chonghou Han Chang? In this way, he not only reflected his status as an important minister, but also stabilized Han Qing's position in the palace, and also cured Qi Lin of the crime of destroying silk paintings.

Or is it Concubine Xian's side, Zhao Xiangzhuo, the prince of Zhenguo? In the past few years, Zhenguo Gong has been very quiet, he can rush back, Concubine Xian is indispensable, and if he comes back later, Qi Lin doesn't know what will happen.

Or is there someone else who has already reached into this palace?
