Chapter Seventy-One: Selecting the Harem
Bei Qi was dressed in a rough manner, lying on the big bed in Weiyang Palace, and hugged her in his arms around Qi Xin's waist and abdomen. Qi Xin turned his back to Beiqi naked, filling his chest with a warm quilt.
Qi Xin just feels that his body is still cold now, no matter whether that person's body is hot or not, whether the quilt is gentle or not, Qi Xin just feels that he is cold. It's as if all the qiē around him has disappeared, and Qi Xin is lying naked in a completely unfamiliar place, and his whole body is hollowed out.
Qixin is in that state now, lonely.
"Qixin, why don't you like to laugh as much as you did when you were younger?"
Qi Xin didn't speak, she didn't want to go back to Beiqi to have any questions about 'childhood'. Beiqi has said it many times, but she doesn't have any memories of when she was a child. She had also asked the Seventh Princess, but the Seventh Princess just knew that there was such a thing, and the rest was not clear.
But in the end, Qi Xin still opened his mouth and said softly,
"No, Your Majesty."
Northern Qi brought Qi Xin closer to him, and raised his entire face on Qi Xin's back. Qi Xin couldn't feel the change in his back, and only heard Beiqi's muffled voice.
"Together, I hope you can be happy. I'm glad you're by my side, but I want you to be happy. ”
Qi Xinduo wanted to turn around, look at the man's face and ask him.
Why do you do this to her, why do you do this to her because you are happy. What do you mean by wanting her to be happy, she's not happy at all! Not at all! ’
But these words could only be shouted silently in his heart, and his throat felt the pain of being burned by fire. Qi Xin clenched her fists, how she thought, how much she wanted to kill this man like this.
Qi Xin steadied his heart for a moment, and only turned around after taking a few breaths, but he didn't want to look at Bei Qi's face, he just bent his neck deeply and buried his head in Bei Qi's chest. In this way, it makes Qixin feel a little warmer. Qi Xin said sullenly,
"Your Majesty, the concubines, the concubines. The concubine can't be so happy yet. ”
Beiqi was stunned, but quickly understood the meaning of Qixin as Qixin's heart could not forget the Qingguo and the past, and could not erase the cowardly man who had a marriage contract with him from his memory. But Beiqi still tightened his arms and hugged Qi Xin tightly in his arms.
But Qixin knows what he's thinking,
'Before you die. I couldn't be that happy. ’
A new day opens at the same time as the sun rises, and the ministers in the court discuss the war between the Northern Qi Kingdom and the Southern Li Kingdom, and the Northern Qi Dynasty feels a headache when listening to the news and different voices from all sides. Flower Face has been staying in the imperial study and looking at various maps and war books, constantly studying various tactics. Chang Gui waited in Zhengyang Palace to select new palace people one by one and admonished them strictly.
To say that the busiest thing is still the unity in Weiyang Palace.
At this moment, Qi Xin was sitting face to face with the Seventh Princess, watching the palace maids dress up the Seventh Princess, while he was reading books about women's training.
"Niangniang, what do you think of this?"
Qi Xin slowly raised his head and looked at the seven princesses standing in front of him.
There are a lot of good things in the Northern Qi Palace. Both the north and west sides have now wanted to offer goods to the Northern Qi Kingdom on time, and the dowry given by the Qingguo before was also priceless. There is now only one queen of Northern Qi in the harem, and it can be said that those jewels and gorgeous jade clothes are all in unison. In the past, these things were piled up in a warehouse, but after they were registered, they were all useless.
Qi Xin asked Man'er to fetch some a little, but he didn't expect to ask those people in charge to send the best ones.
So now in Qi Xin's eyes, the dress of the seventh princess can be said to be extravagant, but it can also be said to be unbearable. But looking at the expression of the seventh princess, it seems that she still likes it.
Qi Xin looked at the seventh princess silently and didn't say anything.
"Mother? What do you think? ”
"So be it."
The Seventh Princess felt that Qi Xin's answer was strange. He lifted up his face to look at her. However, when she saw Qi Xin's expression, she felt even more strange, but when she remembered it, the seventh princess felt strange since the morning.
After waking up early, Qixin came over and said that he wanted to have breakfast with her. During the banquet, Qi Xin suddenly said that he would compensate the seventh princess well. He sent people to the kitchen and ordered them to make a lot. He also said that the Seven Princesses had been serving for a long time, and that they had sent a lot of gold, silver, jewelry, and beautiful cloth and clothes.
"My sister doesn't think it's good-looking?"
The seventh princess couldn't help but ask with the doubts in her heart, the seventh princess originally thought that Qi Xin would say something. I didn't expect Qi Xin to answer without looking at it,
"No, my sister is very good-looking, and she is very proud of my sister."
The Seventh Princess is also inconvenient to ask anything. I can't figure it out. So I started to look at my own clothes again, but I was curious about those patterns and patterns that I had never seen before.
Qi Xin looked at the appearance of the seventh princess, and his heart was full of disdain. But he still said to the man beside him,
"My sister likes these things, so let's pick some good ones and send them over. The most important thing now is that my sister is happy. ”
After a glance at the happy Seventh Princess, she stopped talking, lowered her head and continued to read the book in her hand. Man'er glared at the complacent Seventh Princess, and all her disdain for the Seventh Princess was expressed on her face. Obviously, Man'er has been with Qixin for a while, and he also knows some of Qixin's behavior, and he doesn't like things that are too luxurious. So at this time, Man'er also saw that the seventh princess was extremely disdainful, so at this time, it was just a matter of making concerted efforts.
In addition to always being concerned about the affairs of the Seventh Princess, Qi Xin will also take time to carefully recall the women and young ladies he has seen before. Is it that he will ask Man'er about some things in the women's house, and Man'er answered them one by one, and when it comes to things in the court, Chang Xin sometimes writes something for Qi Xin to see.
"Mother? What are you doing here? ”
"Huh? What do you do? ”
Qi Xin raised his head to look at Man'er, but Man'er focused on the words written by Qi Xin.
"Why did the lady write the names of these young ladies? Still asking about so many things? ”
Smile in unison,
"Bengong just thinks that there are only Bengong and my sister in this harem, which is a little lonely."
Man'er's eyes widened and he looked at Qixin,
"Niangniang, Niangniang doesn't want to select a harem for the emperor!" (To be continued.) )
