Chapter 161: Qixi Festival (II)

"It's not that I'm unwilling to ......"

Before Fu Qizheng finished speaking, he only heard a "bang", and when he looked up, the bright fireworks were already blooming in the night sky, and the stars and the moon were darkened a lot.

The crowd began to rush to the river behind the Yuelao Temple, it was crowded for a while, the two people under the tree were almost washed away, Emperor Yuan held Fu Qizheng's hand tightly, and as the crowd slowly moved to the river, the riverside terrain was open, and the crowd was loosened.

Standing by the river, the fireworks in the sky are gorgeous and colorful, just like what the city tower saw that day, Fu Qizheng stared up, the fireworks pierced the night sky, illuminated the sky, I don't know where is the magpie bridge, there are lovers who have met?

Fu Qizheng turned his eyes to look at Emperor Yuan, but heard him say coldly: "Aren't you unwilling?" ”

Fu Qizheng said softly with heavy eyes: "It's not that I'm unwilling, it's that I'm already content." A slight smile crossed his lips.

He hugged him lightly from behind, wrapped his hands around his waist, and whispered in his ear: "Is this content?" ”

"To be so favored by your husband, how dare you ask for it again." Fu Qizheng smiled slightly, looked up at the fireworks, and prayed for God's blessing.

Emperor Yuan looked at her in his arms and smiled, and couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her lightly on the cheek.

When the fireworks fell silent, it was dark again. The river suddenly appeared dappled with bright light, and countless river lamps floated down the river. Many young women came to the river in groups, wrote their wishes on a slip of paper and put them in the river lanterns, so that the boat could go down with the waves, hoping that their wishes would come true.

The people by the river gradually dispersed, and Fu Qizheng knew that he was getting closer and closer to the time of returning to the palace, and he was very nostalgic for the time when he stayed together on the night of Qixi Festival, and turned his head to look up at the face that was close at hand. couldn't help but stand on tiptoe and kiss the side of his face quickly, blushing like a thief, and pretending to be nothing. Looking at the candle flame floating in the river, he was silent, and he was relieved to hear him chuckle.

Emperor Yuan hugged him tighter and tighter, and said, "If you don't want to go back, it doesn't hurt to stay for a few more days." ”

Fu Qizheng hurriedly said: "The country can't be without a king for a day, and they have all arrived in Pingjing." How can you not go back? ”

Coming out of the Yuelao Temple, the street became deserted, and he walked slowly. I just hope that this road will be as long as possible, Fu Qizheng looked up, and it was already a sparse moon. At first, I was worried that I would get lost, but I followed him all the way. Curious, he seemed to know where the carriage was.

"It seems that the husband is very familiar with the road in this Pingjing City. It must have been out of the ordinary. Fu Qizheng said with a smile.

"Hearing is false, seeing is believing; If you listen partially, you will be dark, and if you listen to it, you will be clear, and you can know the truth when you stay in the palace. ”

"Help......"

A woman's shout broke the silence of the night.

"What are you shouting, in the dead of night, the girl is inevitably lonely, why don't you let a few of us accompany you?"

"You ...... Don't come here......"

Fu Qizheng and Emperor Yuan walked in search of the sound, in a secluded alley. A girl is blocked by several thugs.

"Don't come here......," the woman staggered back, frightened. But he has been forced into a corner.

Seeing that the woman was about to be kidnapped by several villains, Emperor Yuan shouted, "Stop! ”

A few villains turned around, they were fierce and evil, and when they saw Fu Qizheng beside Emperor Yuan, their eyes lit up in an instant, and the thief smiled: "Yo, this little beauty is even more beautiful, and I can see that my brothers are itchy." The villain rolled up his sleeves and approached step by step, "Hand over the little lady and spare your life." ”

There were many of them, and Fu Qizheng panicked all of a sudden: "Husband, how is this good?" ”

Emperor Yuan looked up at the buildings around him, his brows furrowed, and he said sharply: "What are you still looking at!" ”

As soon as the words fell, four black-clothed men with masks jumped out of nowhere, and suddenly appeared in front of them.

Emperor Yuan pulled Fu Qizheng to stand farther away, shook the folding fan, and said lightly: "Don't hurt your life." ”

"Yes." The four of them said in unison.

Looking at this scene, Fu Qizheng was stunned for a long time, and when he came back to his senses, he saw that the swords of the four people had not yet been unsheathed, and those villains had already been subdued, obviously effortlessly.

The four of them returned to Emperor Yuan and knelt down and arched their hands: "Your Majesty." ”

Emperor Yuan closed the fan and beckoned back, and the four of them immediately flew off the wall and disappeared into the night.

"They are?"

"Ouchi Secret Guard."

"Do you follow all the time?"

"Of course."

Fu Qizheng frowned slightly, and said to himself: "That's not everything I've seen." ”

"Thank you Childe for coming to the rescue." The woman thanked her again and again, and it could be seen that she was still in shock.

Fu Qizheng said: "With a lot of effort, the girl should go back quickly." He looked at the few villains who were unconscious on the ground, and asked Emperor Yuan, "What should they do, just let them go?" ”

"I didn't expect that there would be such fanatics in Gyeonggi doing evil, and someone would arrest them to go where they should go."

On the carriage, Fu Qizheng recalled that the ears and temples grinding on the riverside were all seen by the four secret guards, and he couldn't help but blush, and frowned: "How come the husband never mentioned that there are still secret guards following, and I didn't see ...... in Xunzhou last time."

"The trip to Xunzhou was in a hurry and had to be kept secret, and I didn't even bring Li Changhai, let alone the guards." Emperor Yuan said again, "It's not too early, let's stay in Qianning Palace tonight and go back tomorrow." ”

When leaving Qianning Palace on the second day, Fu Qizheng was about to go to the Lizheng Palace to retire, and walked to the door to see that the door of the palace was closed, and then he heard a burst of stern reprimands from the palace, and Emperor Yuan seemed to have been furious.

Fu Qizheng muttered to himself: "Why are you so angry." Then he no longer entered, and went straight out of Qianning Palace.

"Concubine Niangniang." In front of the door, Li Changhai asked for peace.

Fu Qizheng asked, "What's wrong with the emperor?" ”

"The emperor announced the arrival of Lord Jing Zhaoyin early in the morning, and he is still in there at this time."

Fu Qizheng suddenly understood, and couldn't help laughing, it seemed that it was not the girl who was really affected by a few fanaticians last night.

Back at Jingyi Palace, Fu Qizheng took the silver hairpin and looked at it for a long time.

"My sister won't take me with her when she goes out of the palace to play." Fu Yin said aggrievedly.

"Where is the mother going out of the palace to play, it is clearly a serious matter." He Youzhu was already standing in front of the door and said with a smile.

Fu Qizheng glanced at her: "The news of the concubine is getting more and more well-informed. ”

After sending off the people waiting in the palace, He Youzhu said, "Do you know why the emperor is in a hurry to take you out of the palace?" ”

Fu Qizheng nodded lightly: "The reason for leaving the palace is naturally known, but why it is so sudden, I also have doubts." ”

"The throne has been vacant for more than a year, and many ministers have proposed to establish the queen, and there are even those who advise the emperor to appoint the crown prince."

Fu Qizheng lowered his eyes: "Since the minister proposed to establish the queen, he should have invited the candidate for the establishment of the queen by the way." ”

"Concubine Shu."

"In terms of family background, in terms of heirs, there is only her." Fu Qizheng had already expected this.

"Fortunately, there are still Qin Xiang and scholars in the court, Chen Tong's party is limited, and it is not easy to succeed, although the emperor did not express his position in front of the ministers, but at this juncture he personally took you out of the palace to ask for a child, the holy will is self-evident, I hope they can retreat in the face of difficulties."

Fu Qizheng couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I have no children under my knees, I'm afraid that they will take advantage of this to become more and more courageous." ”

"Don't worry too much about it now, since you are the best candidate for the throne in the emperor's heart, then their hard work will backfire, not only will they fail to achieve their goals, but the emperor will most likely be angry with Concubine Shu's mother and son."

This is the reason, but Fu Qizheng also knows in her heart that if she doesn't come out for a day, she will be one step farther away from the back position. Rubbing the hairpin with a gourd engraved on her fingertips, she never believed in the so-called fate, but now she had to calm down and resign herself to fate. (To be continued.) )
