Qiwen was surprised to find that resistance seemed to be more provocative than submissive, and judging by his heavy breathing and reckless movements, he was clearly more excited than Fang Cai. But excitement is excitement, even though he is panting like a beast, he is still holding a posture aimed at retrieving the silk handkerchief, and he has no intention of taking advantage of the situation to achieve positive results with her.

Qiwen is very angry, what are you pretending to be? I have such a small area on my body, do you really need to "find" so many times to find a handkerchief? Besides, do you still need to use your lips to help you find a handkerchief? Obviously, you yourself are very emotional, and you make me even more emotional, but you still have to pretend! Isn't it interesting that everyone is an adult?

When the light was just extinguished, she conveniently stuffed the silk handkerchief under the mattress, and no matter how much the emperor fumbled and examined her, he didn't even think to find it.

"You, look, the sky, is it all bright...... Yes? Qiwen tried to divert the enemy's attention, and didn't plan to play with him so meaninglessly. Dry grinding tofu is better than not grinding.

Where is the day? It's still dark in late autumn. The emperor still stopped moving, gasping heavily, feeling that the exhalation in his nostrils was not breath, but fire, and a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on his body, slightly cold.

He was a little frustrated, this time he even touched the place he shouldn't have touched, but he still didn't touch the silk handkerchief, where was she hiding? In fact, he is not pretending, he really wants to get it back.

It's just that it's time for Du Yin, and I really don't have time to entangle her any more. Who made me Mingjun?

When he was about to go out, he heard the ghost girl put her head under the quilt and let out a low snicker......

Winter is approaching, and the weather is getting colder and colder day by day. The whole of Zhiyang Palace is preparing for the winter, inspecting the earth dragon, repairing the flue, distributing winter clothes, distributing charcoal fires, and still except for the Ciqing Palace, the rest of the expenses have been reduced to the minimum.

After Concubine Ning was scolded that day, she brought the emperor's words back to Yonghe Palace, and the three concubines summed it up, not daring to believe the true meaning of the saint for a while. The emperor also thought of this, and when he visited the empress again on the fifteenth of the next day, he reiterated his willingness to turn the three imperial concubines into female officials and release them from the palace in the future. The queen confirmed the news to Yonghe Palace.

Soon after, the emperor heard the feedback, and unexpectedly, it was the first one who seemed to be the most brainless and arrogant Wang Xuanzhi on the surface who was willing to accept the emperor's kindness, and soon he was really assigned to the Shang Palace Bureau to be a female history, and he was ready to be released from the palace in a few months. Concubine Ning and Feng Xuanzhi both said that they still wanted to stay in the palace to "serve the emperor".

When chatting with Qiwen about this, Qiwen analyzed that she heard that Feng Xuanzhi was a shy woman who didn't dare to say anything, maybe she didn't dare to accept this change even if she had the heart, and she was still willing to be content with the status quo.

She said the tone of the last sentence, which is called a long and long.

The emperor looked at her and asked, are you vinegar?

Qiwen replied casually, you say yes.

The emperor did not judge, but only gave her a four-word comment with his eyes: inexplicable.

In fact, Qiwen thought about it, at present, the emperor is very affectionate to her, but in the future, as the emperor, if he says that he will only guard her for the rest of her life, she will not dare to believe it. It is already great luck to be able to catch an emperor who has never touched a woman, how dare you hope to monopolize him for a lifetime?

So Concubine Ning has to wait, who knows if she can really wait. Even if Concubine Ning doesn't like it, then what about the queen, who knows if he cares about who people love in the last ten or eight years...... Men's physical needs and emotions can often be calculated separately.

…… Well, in fact, she's just vinegar. What the hell, why do you want another woman? Even if it's just in name, it's disgusting people! It's time to kidnap him and elope!

Hearing the news that Concubine Ning decided to stay, the emperor didn't think about whether he would sleep with her in the future, but ordered all the subordinates who served Concubine Ning from the original Yonghe Palace to be expelled from the palace, and the whole thing was changed, and warned Concubine Ning that she must strictly restrain the palace people in the future, and if he knew the slightest mistake, he would definitely be severely punished.

Cui Qiao and what Ru'er, the little palace maid really made him lose his appetite when he thought about it.

With that day's public reprimand and this one-pot end, it is said that Concubine Ning's guts no longer dare to do anything again, even if she still has that thief heart, there will no longer be an eyeless subordinate like Cui Qiao who will continue to cater to her loyally, and it will be good if she doesn't go to the well and make her face down.

So the emperor was not worried that she would dare to take revenge on Qiwen again. In addition, he also saw that with Qiwen's qualifications, Concubine Ning would be able to find fault with her at most, and if she really did what to do with her, Concubine Ning's wrist was really not enough.

The condition of the elderly tends to change with the climate, as soon as the winter turns cool, the emperor's condition will be aggravated, although it has not yet reached the point of critical illness, but because of the previous critical illness at the bottom, no one dares to guarantee that there will be no emergency, and the whole palace is busy for this.

Since the aggravation of Emperor Taishang's illness, King Tan will enter the palace every day to serve the sick, except for not spending the night in the palace, almost all day in the Ciqing Palace. There was a group of praises inside and outside the court, as if anyone who praised King Tan's voice was a little smaller, as if it was a big rebellion.

The Emperor Taishang now has a total of two sons, and praising one of them for his filial piety is of course a metaphor for the other is not filial enough.

Qiwen pouted disdainfully, sigh! He has nothing to do every day, of course he should go, should he go, should he let the emperor put aside state affairs to serve the sick? It's none of their business to dare to love the chaos in the world, right? Who wouldn't tell the truth? You can say that self-cultivation is not enough to level the world, and I can also say that the country is higher than the family, and loyalty is higher than filial piety!

The emperor listened to her indignant complaints, and hugged her and laughed for a long time.

Qiwen really wanted to point to the noses of those people and say: You guys who advocate the filial piety of King Tan, do you all want the emperor to be the king of the dead country for filial piety? I know that I don't have a backache when I stand and talk, and I know how Li Zicheng treated those high-ranking officials after he broke the city of Beijing?

In winter, it is not suitable for grazing outside the pass, and it is the season when the Rongdi alien race frequently fights the grass valley, and the news of foreign enemy invasions in Xuanda and Liaodong are frequently sent to the capital.

At such a time, of course, he could not go to serve for a long time, knowing that the gang of Rongdi bandits had already become a considerable scale and a major threat to the country today. The year before last, they had sneaked in from a negligent pass in the northwest, and they were forced all the way to the foot of the capital, so that the Great Yan Dynasty experienced a crisis on the verge of extinction. If the battle report is not handled in a timely manner, it may repeat the mistakes of the past.

Under such circumstances, the emperor would still squeeze out an hour or two every day to accompany his father in Ciqing Palace.

Even if she doesn't listen to him, Qiwen knows that her father is seriously ill, and he really wants to serve more. He is like this, when he left Beijing to join the domain, he almost made up his mind not to come back, but once he heard that his father was really critically ill, he still returned to his heart, and even the marriage he had always resisted was resigned.

He couldn't say a word of nice words, but in fact, he really cared about his parents. However, as before, his companionship was limited to companionship, and he could not even say a few beautiful words of comfort to the patient. From anyone's point of view, it looks like coping with an errand, and it is far less beautiful than King Tan.

According to Qiwen, he is a fool. Of course, no matter how familiar he is, he can't say it to his face.

Qiwen will always be wronged for him, his style of not being able to speak and only doing things is thankless, and he pays but does not get anything in return.

She began to put forward her opinion to the emperor, but the emperor said that he did not care, "How can it be as good as it should be, but I want to be worthy of it." This is the credo he has always adhered to. Whether it is for things or people, for public or private, he is abiding by this principle.

was compressed by internal and external troubles, and the emperor had very little time to accompany Qiwen. Lunch was often held in the Mandarin Palace, and they could often only talk for a while over dinner.

For the emperor, this is to avoid the misfire like that day, and to buy time to work hard for the official canonization of her calmly.

For Qiwen, the favorability of the two people has tended to stabilize, and there has been no change for a while. That's probably not a bad thing. After experiencing a thrill at the top of the Emperor's Palace that night, she became more and more concerned about the fact that it was better to die than to live, and felt that it was good to fight steadily.

In fact, the emperor, of course, was not really "stupid".

When Qiwen praised King Tan for the courtiers, the emperor explained to her: This is actually nothing bad, just let me see, who praises Yuan Ying's best work, and knows it in his heart.

No one is stupid, or rather, no one will continue to be stupid. The limelight of praising the three princes lasted for a long time before it suddenly subsided. Those Tan party leaders reacted, although it was appropriate to build momentum for the three princes in a timely manner, but if they did too much traces, they would ignite the fire.

- Especially, when the emperor's form shì was thriving.

There are still very few ministers who directly obey the orders of King Tan and have a good understanding of King Tan's movements - after all, King Tan can't blatantly pull up a team to fight against the emperor. But there are indeed quite a few civil and military officials who have invested in him and tend to support him.

These people used to be quite optimistic. They knew that their team was strong enough, and all the emperor could rely on was the orthodox title given by the emperor himself, but he was actually a bare-bones commander. They just need to persist in it, wait for the opportunity, and wait for the opportunity according to the instructions of His Royal Highness King Tan, and the chances of winning are still quite large.

The Great Yan Dynasty is a dynasty that attaches great importance to wind criticism, and the more high it is, the more necessary it is to be cautious in words and deeds, even if it is pretending, it is necessary to pretend to be a flawless posture of high morality and integrity, loyalty and filial piety.

A king like the emperor, who has not received much support, is not uncommon if he is caught by a hundred officials and attacked by a person with enough weight, not to mention the power of the emperor.

Not to mention how turbulent the situation outside is now, those who rise up for the sake of not having enough to eat will be judged as chaotic people, but all the common people who still have food to eat will not be willing to be with them, but if they directly point out that the king has no way to expose the rod and crusade, I am afraid that the response will be hundreds of thousands.

Therefore, the blatant failure of the ruler is tantamount to self-destruction, which makes the already ruined dynasty face the catastrophe.

Therefore, the emperor and the king of Tan, everyone needs to strive for a justifiable reputation, and no one dares to act blatantly and recklessly. At the same time, they will also want to make the other party the unjustifiable.

The members of the Tan Party were waiting for such an opportunity. As King Tan said to Qiao Anguo in the past, Emperor Taishang's preservation seemed to be dragging the emperor back, but in fact it was the emperor's most powerful protection. Once the Emperor Yan is in control, King Tan no longer has to care about his father's position, and guides his ministers to join forces with the emperor to attack, which may form a fatal blow to the emperor.

Recently, however, this optimism has taken a toll and become less secure.

Recently, there has been a significant change in the style of Jinshang, first of all, it is more aggressive and bold than before - following Cui Zhen, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and then the right attendant of the Ministry of Officials and the secretary of the Ministry of Rites have fallen one after another, one was bombarded back to his hometown by Jinshang, and the other was confiscated to Xinjiang to plant grapes. And the vacated position is not in a hurry to be succeeded by someone today, and it seems that he doesn't care at all about the lack of one person to do the errand.

His Royal Highness the King of Tan also privately asked the leaders of the Tan Party to appease everyone, and vaguely expressed: The more his second brother is so desperate, the more he digs his own grave, and you take advantage of the situation to promote him as a cruel tyrant, and let his reputation be ruined.

The younger brothers also thought so. However, the recent situation is not quite right, the two Shangshu and a squire who have just fallen from power are no longer as sharp as those who were punished by the great traitors and evils in the past, but deeply hidden characters, seeing that they are unlucky, all colleagues can't help but have cold lips and teeth - dare to deal with them today, who knows if they will be dealt with tomorrow? Although the beautiful tomorrow promised by His Royal Highness King Tan is very tempting, if I lose my official position and lose my head soon, I can't see any temptation, right?

This breeds vacillation in the alliance. The son once said that the gentleman is harmonious but different, and the villain is the same but not harmonious. How can we expect a group of corrupt officials to be united, selfless, and monolithic?

In addition to the fierce style, today's other measures are close to Huairou, and this Huairou style has made the leaders of the Tan Party even more frightened. In the past, whoever copied someone's house and cut off someone's head, now they are all saying the same, vigorous and resolute, adhering to the style that I understand and don't need you to understand.

Outside the court, except for a few people who have personally suffered the persecution of those corrupt officials and corrupt officials, most of them are still people who do not know the truth, and these people only see the scene of murder and raiding their homes, and they inevitably believe the statement spread by the Tan Party that the emperor is a tyrant with hot hands.

Recently, however, there has been very specific first-hand news that has been spread by the Jinyi Guard under the command of Lord Qiu, and the crimes of the officials who were punished in the past and this time have been quickly publicized to the world.

Everyone in the teahouses and liquor shops in the streets and alleys is saying that whoever is ordered to be punished today is called a great traitor, and thanks to the wisdom of our Lord, it is a blessing for all the people to condemn him. In the past, they regarded the present as a tyrant, and they all wronged others. I heard that so-and-so adults also interceded for the corrupt official, it can be seen that he is a raccoon dog, and he should be dealt with as soon as possible! Balabala......

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the battle for wind criticism is more important than the real struggle. I haven't paid attention to the left and right wind reviews before, but this time I started to grasp both wind reviews and hard work. In the final analysis, it was originally the moral high ground that he occupied, and when he shifted the focus of his strategy, the enemy immediately fell into passivity.

For a while, all the corrupt officials were silent, and the edge was more restrained, and the praise for the filial piety of King Tan was not so loud.

None of them could have imagined that His Majesty the Emperor's strategic change was actually the idea of a seven-rank palace maid.
