This night, due to the fire in the house, Xiao Yizheng was free to deal with the arrangements outside.

And Qingxi was in the room, looking at the flowers and candles and going to bed alone. After tossing and turning during the day, she was extremely tired, but at the moment she couldn't sleep after tossing and turning. She thought that Xiao Yizheng didn't need to deal with the matter of walking in the water, and he didn't go inside to rest for fear that there were other considerations. But as the saying goes, if you can hide for a while, you can't hide for a lifetime. Although there was no expected embarrassment, there was unexpected deep thought.

The red candle flame is flickering, the red tent is like a fire and passionate, the red clothes are bright and scorching, and the eyes are full of festive warmth, but at this moment, it also reflects the rationality and calmness under the joy and noise. This marriage, although it is false, Qingxi originally felt that it was enough to cooperate with each other to complete the year's covenant to protect the Ling family, but today's passage from Xiao Yizheng in Wangchun Pavilion reminded her in time that she was already Princess Heng after all. She and King Heng, and King Heng's mansion, inevitably have both glory and loss. At the same time, because of the title of princess, she also needs to bear the responsibility of the royal family. This year's life has actually made her completely unable to go back to the past.

The red candle flowed wax and burned until dawn. When Moon Shadow entered the house to wait, Qingxi had already gotten up.

"Girl, ...... you" Moon Shadow paused, thinking that she was already in the palace, and she had obviously changed her words when she greeted everyone yesterday, but she forgot about it again, so she hurriedly said, "Princess, why did you get up so early?" ”

Qingxi's spirit was obviously not good, and he said lazily: "Moon Shadow, you still call me a girl in the future." How it is at home, how it is here, don't be awkward. Considering the particularity of this marriage, she didn't pay much attention to it, and the things she brought from home were all simple, always thinking that she would always have to go out in the future. As a result, Moon Shadow was the only attendant she had brought with her from the Ling Mansion. Her affection for Moon Shadow is not comparable to that of ordinary masters and servants, and she has never hidden anything from Moon Shadow before this. It's just that the secret of this marriage is unknown to her closest relatives, and she naturally didn't reveal a word to Moon Shadow.

"How does this work?" Moon Shadow hesitated, she put down the object in her hand, and waited for Qingxi to clean her face and freshen up. "I heard Sister Meng say that you didn't need so many people to wait in the future after you ordered yesterday, so let me in this morning, and then arrange manpower when you instructed later. Now that I'm the princess, I'm the only one to serve, it's not appropriate or in accordance with the rules. ”

Qingxi raised her eyes and looked at her, and said lightly, "Sister? This is familiar? ”

Moon Shadow smiled and helped her dress, and said sincerely: "You brought me into the mansion alone, I have to quickly understand the situation in the mansion, so I can't let you suffer a loss!" ”

Qingxi's heart warmed, and he patted Moon Shadow's hand lightly, and said, "In the future, if you are wronged in the palace, you don't have to endure it, I said what happened before, and what will happen in the future." ”

Moon Shadow couldn't stop nodding: "I know, I know!" He pulled her to sit down in front of the dresser again, and lamented, "What's going on this wedding night!" The prince is also not at peace, and you are still alone in the empty room, I look at you with a tired face. What is this called? ”

Qingxi closed her eyes and let her comb her hair, draw her eyebrows, and listen to her series of complaints with a smile, but she didn't answer. When she said that her mouth was dry and her hair was combed, she opened her eyes and stared at herself in the mirror to see that the bun was very eye-catching, yes, she was married. Before he had time to sigh himself, the hidden door was pushed open, and Xiao Yizheng walked in.

The two looked at each other and smiled at each other.

She didn't know if Xiao Yizheng had rested this night, but he did seem energetic at the moment.

Xiao Yizheng smiled, his eyes seemed to be intentionally paused on his bun, he came closer, and said clearly: "I'm afraid you haven't slept, right?" But at this time, I can't let you catch up on sleep, let's have breakfast together, and we will enter the palace this morning to thank you. ”

Qingxi nodded slightly: "Okay." ”

After the two finished eating, they entered the palace together to thank him, and spent the whole day in the palace. In the morning, the two were in the queen's palace, waiting for the emperor to bow down to thank him. The emperor smiled gently, said hello again and again, praised Qingxi with kind words, and left them for lunch together. After lunch, Xiao Zhe led Xiao Yizheng to the Heart Cultivation Hall to speak. Qingxi was left alone at the queen's place to have tea with everyone.

Seeing her eyes following Xiao Yizheng's back, the queen smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, wait for Liulang here with peace of mind." ”

Qingxi hurriedly retracted his gaze and lowered his head slightly, but he looked shy, causing a kind smile from everyone in the hall.

"Princess Heng is so beautiful and elegant, standing with His Royal Highness King Heng, they are indeed a beautiful couple." Concubine Nian on the second seat suddenly spoke, saying pleasing words, but her tone was as indifferent as not having the slightest emotion.

Qingxi raised his head slightly and looked at this concubine Niangniang carefully. Her complexion was calm at this time, with a cold expression that no one should enter, as if everyone in this hall had nothing to do with it. But he also took the initiative to mention such a sentence.

Shen Tong once said that Concubine Xiao is like Xiao Yizheng's mother. Yes, she is a beauty, and the most touching thing is the sassy flying between the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, and she has a heroic spirit that does not let her eyebrows go. Isn't it the same with Empress Xiaoyi?

She was thinking about it, but I don't know who took Concubine Nian's words and complimented her again, and everyone echoed it again.

There are indeed few people in the inner courtyard of Xiao Zhe's harem, but even if there are not a few people, the laughter of everyone at this time makes Qingxi feel a little crowded. She thought that Empress Xiaoyi had never stepped into the palace in her life, was it because she herself was unwilling to fit into such an atmosphere? Do you feel the same way you feel at the moment? Just as he was thinking about it, the queen's voice came steadily: "I heard that the Hengwang Mansion ran out of water last night?" You're scared, aren't you? ”

The matter of the palace going to the water must have spread all over the court and the opposition today, and the queen would ask, as it should be, she opened her mouth and said calmly: "The concubine has not been frightened, but His Royal Highness has been busy all night, and it is very hard. ”

"Liulang too, in the end, it is the flower candle in the cave room, why don't I accompany you, someone will do the water thing, and he doesn't have to do it himself." The queen seemed to complain a little, paused, and said with a smile: "But you newlyweds, don't stick to these." The matter of the palace going to the water still has to be thoroughly investigated. ”

"Your Highness works hard, and the concubines are guilty of not being able to help. I believe that His Royal Highness will handle this matter well, and Queen Xie is worried. ”

As soon as she said this, everyone stopped moving and looked at her, with a look of surprise in their eyes. She felt these strange gazes, and her heart was shocked, and she immediately reflected on whether she had said something wrong. She looked at the queen again, but saw that the queen also paused like everyone else, but immediately laughed and said goodbye again and again. She was more confused in her heart, but she didn't want to ask too much.

"There are not many people in the palace, if there is anything difficult in the future, come to the palace. If Rokuro bullies you, you can also come to the palace and tell me! ”

The queen is so kind, Qingxi has a good impression and thanks herself.

The queen had been talking to everyone for a long time, and when she was tired, she dispersed everyone and arranged for Qingxi to take a rest. Qingxi was happy, she was really tired.

In the Palace of Nourishing the Heart, Xiao Zhe also asked about the water in the palace. Xiao Yizheng told the story before and after without concealment. After listening to this, Xiao Zhe straightened his face and scolded: "Nonsense! How can you do such a thing on your wedding night? A thorough investigation of the palace personnel is not in a hurry at this time, and the affairs of the court do not need you to put your mind on your marriage! ”

Xiao Yizheng was slightly shocked, but he didn't expect this incident to make him so angry. He remembered that day on Baoding Mountain, his father said that in this marriage, his consideration was only that he was his father. He lowered his head slightly, lowered his voice, and said, "This matter is indeed something I did more radically. ”

Xiao Zhe looked at him with low eyebrows, most of the anger in his heart had gone, and he said slowly: "It's not that your method is useless, it's just that it's your newlywed year after all!" He paused, and continued in a serious tone: "Liulang, since you should take this marriage, then you must manage it well." Your mother and I hope that you will have a happy marriage, and that you will grow old together and stay together in peace in this life. Do you understand? ”

Xiao Zhe's soft and slow voice, fist and beloved son's heart, made Xiao Yizheng warm and moving. "Don't worry, Daddy, I wrote down your words." He was silent for a while, and then added: "Me and Qingxi, it will be very good." ”

Xiao Zhe's expression was slightly comforted, he nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Your ninth uncle mediated in the Miao Jiang Department and did some radical things. In a few days, the impeachment note will be handed in. Since you've done it, add fuel to the fire. ”

Xiao Yizheng took a step forward and asked, "Then the riot in the Miao Territory has been calmed down?" ”

"That's nature. The internal contradictions of the tribe all point to the mediation and mediation of the imperial court. As long as the imperial court comes forward, it can be calm. ”

"Then Uncle Nine has to make another contribution in this matter."

Xiao Zhe smiled lightly and said meaningfully: "The credit is all on himself." After speaking, he waved his hand: "Okay, hurry up and lead your daughter-in-law back to the house, and when you return to the door tomorrow, you have to behave well for me!" ”

After Xiao Yizheng walked away, Guo Rui walked in, solemnly handed over a painting, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, this is missing the old man again." When His Royal Highness Six gets married, the mother must be happy. ”

Xiao Zhe smiled slightly and did not speak.

Guo Rui continued thoughtfully: "Just now, Concubine Niangniang sent someone to report that she wanted to see His Majesty tonight. ”

Xiao Zhe frowned slightly, sighed lightly, and said, "Let's go in two days, I will see her in two days." You send someone to tell her that to keep your place is to keep the lives of those she cares about. ”

"Yes, understood." After Guo Rui finished speaking, he turned around and retreated. In the house, Xiao Zhe was left alone.

Xiao Zhe sat down slowly, carefully and carefully unfolded the scroll, raised his hand and stroked the face of the beautiful woman on the painting, and said softly: "Su Hua, Liulang has already married, as I arranged, to marry the girl of the Ling family." That girl was raised by the entire Chen family and the Ling family, and she is also brave, you must like it. I know that this marriage is both what you expect and what you have concerns. Although you hope that Rokuro can be independent in his life, without taking on too many responsibilities, simple and simple, but he is your son after all, he is destined to do something as soon as he is born, and he has his own way to go. I think you will always protect him in those nine heavens. ”
