Chapter 207: Conspiracy (Welfare Qinshu's Birthday Update)
Li Che frowned and looked at the smile on Cao Fei's face, and he said lightly: "It's enough for you to have this heart." ”
Cao Fei smiled even more when she heard this: "The concubine is naturally hearted, I heard that Liu Guifei is pregnant, and the concubine specially made some appetizing snacks, and prepared to send them later." ”
As she spoke, she glanced at the palace maid beside her, and the palace maid immediately stepped forward and raised the food box in her hand to open it.
Li Che glanced at it lightly, and then said, "No need, she doesn't seem to like this." ”
Cao Fei didn't think that she hadn't given it to Liu Xuan yet, so she first asked Li Che to refuse, her face was stunned for a moment, and then she quickly turned her face, she still nodded with a smile: "It's the concubine who is reckless, but the concubine once fantasized about what she would eat if one day she was pregnant, and the first thing that came to mind was these, but she forgot that Liu Guifei's taste was different from that of the concubine." ”
Li Che's brows furrowed even tighter when he heard this, how could he not understand the meaning of Cao Fei's words, at this time, he suddenly had a trace of anger in his heart, and his eyes began to turn cold when he looked at Cao Fei, and he waved his hand impatiently: "I am not in a good mood today, you can carry these things back." ”
After speaking, he no longer glanced at Cao Fei, flicked his sleeves and walked away.
The smile on Cao Fei's face couldn't be hung up at the moment, and the hand holding the tray trembled slightly, and the food plate on it also made a crashing sound.
On the side, her personal palace maid was a little unbearable, and called softly: "Shuyi......"
"What kind of ceremony is Shu?!" Cao Fei's anger finally had a place to vent, she turned around and yelled at the palace maid: "Do you think Your Majesty still has me in your eyes now?!" ”
The palace maid was reprimanded, showing a hint of grievance on her face. She reminded aloud: "Shuyi, we are still outside the imperial study at the moment. ”
A sentence reminded Cao Fei, she suppressed the anger in her heart with hatred, and pushed the tray to the palace maid: "Go!" ”
Cao Fei strode towards the harem, the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, when she passed by the Ganlu Palace, she looked at the closed palace door, and the anger reached the point of no return, and she turned her feet and said hatefully: "Go to Qiankun Palace!" ”
In the Qiankun Palace, the Empress Dowager Cao was talking to Cao Ying. As he was talking, he saw Cao Fei rushing in angrily. The palace maid guarding outside the hall hurriedly saluted: "Back to the Queen Mother, the slave and maid can't stop Shuyi." ”
"Stop what?" Cao Fei turned around and yelled at the palace maid: "This palace comes to my aunt, do you have to wait for you to pass it on like an outsider?" ”
"Alright, alright." Empress Dowager Cao waved her hand to ask the palace maid to retreat, and after the palace maid retreated. She looked at Cao Fei and said, "What does it look like to shout and scream." and is not afraid to reach the ears of His Majesty. Say you're out of character. ”
Hearing this, Cao Fei suddenly became aggrieved, she threw herself in front of the Empress Dowager Cao's knees, knelt on the Empress Dowager's knees and cried: "Now Your Majesty still has me in his heart." He is full of the fox girl, I make snacks for him every day, but he has never seen it with his eyes, and now the fox is pregnant, I ...... What am I going to do in the future......"
As she spoke, she burst into tears.
There is only one Gongwang Li Xu under the knees of the Empress Dowager Cao, Cao Fei has always been very close to her, and when she heard Cao Fei's crying, the Empress Dowager Cao also showed a touch of distress, and the palace maids around her have retreated, and now only Mama Song is left in this palace to serve.
Empress Dowager Cao gently touched the top of Cao Fei's hair, sighed and said: "Now the Cao family is not as good as before, your uncle has that incident, not only your father, but also the entire Cao family, in the face of such a situation, you can only be patient for the time being." ”
"Am I not patient enough?" Cao Fei wiped her tears and said: "Auntie, I offended that fox because of the last incense, Your Majesty ordered me to be grounded, a ban is two years, now I come out, every day I want to be a virtuous lady, but Your Majesty has never looked at me, that fox is pregnant again, if she gives birth to the emperor's eldest son, the future will ......"
When she said this, she cried again, and the Empress Dowager Cao frowned: "Fei'er is right, Your Majesty has no heirs now, if the eldest son of the emperor comes from the belly of the fox, according to His Majesty's love for the fox, he will definitely be crowned the prince." ”
Empress Dowager Cao's face showed a bit of ruthlessness, she gritted her teeth and said: "The prince can only come from the Cao family!" ”
Cao Ying, who had been silent, couldn't help but say when she heard this: "Your Majesty knows everything, and my aunt must not be impulsive." ”
"Impulsive?" When Cao Fei heard this, she immediately glared at Cao Ying: "Are you from the Cao family?" Married to Your Majesty for more than two years, Your Majesty has never even touched your body, and now you are still speaking for that fox, if that fox really gave birth to the emperor's eldest son, there will be a place for you and me in this palace in the future? ! ”
Cao Ying didn't speak anymore when she heard this, she sighed silently, some things can't be forced, how deep His Majesty's affection for Liu Xuan is, she has already seen it, and it is precisely because she understands that she will die.
Thinking of this, she sighed again, got up and said to Empress Dowager Cao: "Aunt and sister have something to say, so Ying'er won't stay much." ”
After saying that, she blessed her body, turned around and walked out of the main hall.
Looking at Cao Ying's departing back, Cao Fei frowned and said, "Auntie, look at her, how can she look like a daughter of the Cao family!" ”
Empress Dowager Cao's eyebrows were also raised: "That's it, you don't know your sister's lofty temperament." ”
"Qinggao?" Cao Fei snorted: "If she is really Qinggao, how can she marry Your Majesty, she is just a fake Qinggao." ”
After speaking, she saw that Mrs. Cao's face sank, and Cao Fei knew that she had said the wrong thing, so she hurriedly changed her words: "Auntie, what do you say we should do if that fox really gives birth to the crown prince?" ”
"It depends on whether she has the blessing to be born." Empress Dowager Cao smiled coldly: "Moreover, a woman's childbirth is a matter of life, even if she can keep the fetus in her womb to the brink of delivery, whether she has the life to give birth safely is another matter." ”
Cao Fei's eyes lit up when she heard this: "What does aunt mean?" ”
Empress Dowager Cao sneered and hooked her finger at Cao Fei, Cao Fei immediately stepped forward with her ears, and when Empress Dowager Cao finished coldly, she couldn't help but hesitate: "Auntie, this ...... Doesn't that seem inappropriate? ”
Empress Dowager Cao snorted coldly: "What's wrong? and your hand has not passed it, even if your majesty is angry. If you want to be held responsible, this matter can't be found out to you, and it has nothing to do with the Cao family, so why should you worry. ”
When Cao Fei heard this, she bit her lip and showed a resolute look on her face: "Okay, I'll do it." ”
The news that Liu Xuan is pregnant has spread throughout the capital, although most people still have a lot of complaints about Liu Xuan, but they are very happy that she is pregnant. His Majesty has been childless for many years. There was only one emperor's eldest son, Li Yi, who died young.
Now that Liu Guifei is pregnant again, how can everyone not like it.
After Liu Xuan was sleepy for a few days, her spirit improved. Now, although there are no additional personnel in her palace. But the food and the things used are much more delicate and precious. One day, when Li Che came, Liu Xuan pointed to those exquisite foods and asked with a smile: "Is this a legend, the mother is more expensive than the child?" ”
Li Che chuckled when he heard this: "Is there a prince?" You're all expensive. ”
After being pregnant, Liu Xuan was quite unreasonable, and she snorted lightly: "Why haven't concubines enjoyed such treatment before?" ”
Li Che was dumbfounded, in the past few days, he had summoned Gong Yuanshou and asked some things that pregnant women needed, Gong Yuanshou specially mentioned that pregnant people have many mood fluctuations, and he was somewhat prepared in his heart, but when he really encountered Liu Xuan's appearance, he was still speechless.
Liu Xuan smiled at this time: "I'm joking with you, you attach importance to the fetus in my womb, and I'm also happy." ”
The wise and martial Li Che was confused at this time, and he didn't know that Liu Xuan's words were true.
After another month, Liu Xuan, who was three months pregnant, had a slight protrusion in her lower abdomen, and the fetus was stable, she also listened to the words of the head of Gong Yuan, and often walked around the Ganlu Palace, the door of the Ganlu Hall is now open all day long, but she has never seen Cao Fei coming.
Abnormal is a demon, Liu Xuan immediately called Hu Yi and asked him to check Cao Fei's recent whereabouts, but the news that Hu Yi brought back was that Cao Fei had been staying in his palace these days, except for seeing Cao Er's wife once, he had not seen anyone else.
Even the things that used to send snacks to Li Che every day, she have now put it aside.
Liu Xuan frowned after hearing this, she was so well-behaved, she was really different from Cao Fei's temperament.
On this day, Li Che was overjoyed when he came over in the evening, and when he saw Liu Xuan, he smiled and said, "Your cousin really didn't disappoint me. ”
When Liu Xuan heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, Liu Cheng's envoy was the first step, and only if he had done his errand well, would there be the next thing, she took Li Che's arm, sat down with him, and asked with a smile: "Liu Cheng's errand is done?" ”
Li Che smiled and nodded: "This time Liu Cheng went on an envoy, and I gave Jin Peng a big gift. ”
"A big gift?" Liu Xuan asked, "What is the big gift?" ”
Li Chechao smiled and replied, "The national teacher of the Liao State." ”
Liu Xuan suddenly realized, she knew that the national teacher of the Liao State had been captured, but she had never heard of how the national teacher of the Liao State was disposed of, it turned out that it was actually sent to Jin Peng, she frowned and puzzled: "What does this matter have to do with Liu Cheng?" ”
Li Che patted her hand: "Don't worry, listen to what I said." ”
It turned out that after Li Che caught the national teacher of Liao, he abolished his martial arts and let Liu Cheng take him all the way to Liao, because there were many dead soldiers under the national teacher of Liao, so Li Che also sent secret guards to escort him all the way, and when he approached the capital of Liao, he encountered the most critical robbery in history.
Seeing that the dark guards and escort troops were about to be unable to resist, Liu Cheng immediately cut off the head of the Liao State National Teacher with a sword, and as soon as the Liao State National Teacher died, all the dead soldiers suddenly became a plate of loose sand, but at this time Liu Cheng also shouted loudly: "If I are you, I will leave immediately, the Liao State National Teacher is dead, you are already free, and the army that welcomes you will arrive soon, and you will be unable to fly at that time." ”
Most of the dead soldiers under the Liao National Teacher are controlled by drugs, and not all of them are willing to die, the picture is nothing more than to be able to get the antidote to live, even if they die during the mission, but the Liao National Teacher will treat their families well.
And now that the national teacher of Liao is dead, they have no hope, if they lose their lives at this moment, their family relatives will not be treated favorably, so the dead soldiers began to have the heart of retreat, coupled with Liu Cheng's sentence, the army will arrive soon, and the dead soldiers will no longer hesitate immediately, and retreat cleanly.
Although Jin Peng ascended the throne, the national teacher of the Liao State still has a deep foundation in the Liao State, and from time to time the ministers of the court and the central government have been assassinated, and as soon as the national teacher died, his secret forces also suddenly started infighting, and Jin Peng's heart was in trouble.
Liu Cheng has a talent for sophistry, he not only got the terms and conditions that Li Che had negotiated with Jinpeng, but also persuaded Jinpeng to communicate with the dynasty and open up a business route, and now he is leading hundreds of high-quality stallions in Liao State, and returning triumphantly with a large amount of compensation.
In order to show his friendship, Jin Peng also sent his sister, Jin He, the fifth princess of Liao, to make peace.
Hearing this, Liu Xuan said a little sourly: "How does Your Majesty plan to place Jin He?" ”
Li Che immediately laughed when he heard this, he looked at Liu Xuan and deliberately asked, "How do you think Concubine Ai should be placed?" ”
Liu Xuan snorted: "There are so many young and promising ministers in the court who have not yet married, Your Majesty might as well be an adult?" ”
"You." Li Che took her into his arms and doted on the tip of her nose: "I heard that Jin He is the first beauty in Liao, if it is really as rumored, I plan to give her to Liu Zhiqing." ”
"Willow Branch?" Liu Xuan frowned when she heard this: "Why Liu Zhiqing?" ”
Li Che explained with a smile: "You are now pregnant, Mrs. Liu specially sent a letter in Shaanxi, crying that his two sons had not even decided on family affairs, and Liu Zhiqing was the first close minister by my side. ”
Although Liu Xuan thought it was feasible, she still couldn't help but say: "Feelings still need to be happy with each other, if the golden lotus and Liu Zhiqing are tired of each other, you still don't have to forcibly give marriage." ”
Li Che showed an unfathomable smile on his face when he heard this: "Don't worry, these two will never become a pair of resentful couples." ”
Liu Xuan was about to ask why, but Li Che had already changed the subject: "The fetus is now stable, do you want to meet Mrs. Liu and your third uncle's family?" ”
After Liu Xuan became pregnant, she missed Liu's mother a little, even if Li Che didn't mention it, she still wanted to mention it, she thought about it and said: "I've met my stepmother first, as for the third uncle's family, after Liu Cheng returns to Beijing, I will gain a firm foothold in the court, and it will not be too late to announce my relationship with him." ”
Li Che nodded: "It's okay." ”
This night, Li Che stayed in the Ganlu Hall as usual, since Liu Xuan became pregnant, Li Che took her into his arms every night, and then slept with her quietly and decently, but tonight's Li Che was not so regular.
His hands walked up and down Liu Xuan's body, Liu Xuan hadn't noticed it yet, but after a while, the big hands with distinct bones reached into her clothes.
She hurriedly held Li Che's restless hand, with a look of disgust: "What are you doing?" ”
A smile tugged at the corner of Li Che's mouth, and his lazy voice carried a hint of temptation: "Xuan'er, the head of Gong Yuan said that after the fetus is three months, you can have sex." (To be continued.) )
