Chapter 1 Summer Tilts

Next Chapter

The sky is cloudy, although there is no thunderstorm, but the palace in the capital is an undercurrent, up to the queen nobles, down to the palace maids and eunuchs, the mood is a little inexplicably low, as if something big is about to happen......

On the west side of the palace, there is a palace, although it is luxurious and atmospheric, but it gives people a fresh and elegant feeling, this feeling in the palace of the capital, like a slim and jade lotus standing in the dirty pool, is not disturbed by the noise.

On the crimson palace gate, on the plaque with sky blue as the background color, there are three gilded characters - Tilting Heart Palace.

In the palace, all kinds of famous flowers and trees are scattered, and if you look at it at first glance, it gives people the feeling of suddenly entering a rare garden.

In the main palace, on a crimson precious wooden chair carved with a golden phoenix, a woman sat on it a little wantonly, and saw that she had thick black hair coiled behind her head, decorated with precious hairpins and other ornaments;

A gorgeous red phoenix robe is worn on her body, the woman is about the age of her life, but I don't know whether it is natural beauty or superior daily maintenance, her face is as beautiful as a girl in her twenties;

Her delicate face is painted with makeup that is not thick or light, whether she looks at it from a distance or up close, it gives people a sense of nobility looking down on the world, as if if if a smile is on her face, the whole world will fall for it.

It's just that now, on such a face that is alluring to the country and the city, there is a faint sorrow between the black eyebrows.

This woman with a stunning face and peerless temperament in the Great Cloud Dynasty, and a status above 10,000 people under one person is the emperor's concubine and queen of the Great Cloud Kingdom.

Xia Qianxin raised her right hand, the white and slender fingers on her temples, rubbed them gently, her long eyelashes covered her eyes, she closed her eyes, and she didn't know what to think about in her head.

"Queen Mother, you haven't slept well in the past two days, the slave has already lit a soothing incense in the house, take advantage of today's drowsy weather, you can sleep well, if you have any troubles, let's talk about it tomorrow morning." A slave dressed in a high-class palace maid's uniform bowed down and whispered.

Xia Tianxin stood up and walked slowly to the door, looking at the dim sky outside with clear eyes, and sighed in his heart, "Xiaohuan, this palace has indeed not slept well in the past two days, and this right eyelid also jumps a few times from time to time, looking at the weather today, something may happen..."

Xiaohuan naturally knew what she was worried about, Xia poured into the palace for more than ten years, for the next three years, and was naturally favored by the emperor several times, but her stomach did not react for a long time, the emperor loved Xia very much, and did not take this matter too seriously, so he directly named her the master of the harem.

This has caused the dissatisfaction of many concubines in the harem, from the noble concubine to the official woman, in addition to admiration and envy for this queen, more but dissatisfaction, I don't know how many people have complained in their hearts, a woman who can't have children, why is she above all of them? But complaining is complaining, and no one is stupid enough to say these things.

As a servant girl who serves by Xia Tianxin's side, Xiaohuan is naturally no exception, but she knows deeply that these words would rather rot in her stomach than never be spoken.

"The queen is too worried, now that Your Majesty is in power, the people live and work in peace and contentment, Niangniang is the master of the harem, and no one is offended in the harem, so at this time, what else can make Niangniang so worried?" Xiaohuan bowed his head, his cunning eyes rolling back and forth, not knowing what to calculate.

Xia Tianxin shook his head and smiled when he heard this, "You can talk...... By the way, have you ever found what I asked you to find? ”

Feeling Xia Qianxin's sudden gaze, Xiaohuan swallowed saliva unconsciously, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes when he lowered his head, but due to the angle problem, Xia Tianxin did not see these details.

"Back to Niangniang, the slave has been found. Look at ......," Xiaohuan said, about to take something out of his cuff.

"Wait!" Xia poured a low sigh, she turned her head to look at the palace maids around, her eyes were slightly cold, and she exuded a queen-like momentum, "You all go down first, no one is allowed to come in without the order of the palace." ”

"No-" All the palace maids bowed neatly, and then they all withdrew, and the last palace maid to go out gently closed the door by the way.

Seeing this, Xia Qianxin gestured to Xiaohuan with his eyes, Xiaohuan nodded, and took out a delicate medicine bottle from his cuff, the medicine bottle had no text description, the whole body was crystal blue, and a small wooden cork wrapped in a red cloth blocked the mouth of the bottle.

Xia Tianxin took the medicine bottle, his eyes were excited, and he was not sure, and under the excitement, he paced slightly with the medicine bottle.

"Xiaohuan, can this medicine really increase my chances of getting pregnant with a dragon fetus?" Xia looked at the inconspicuous small bottle in his hand excitedly, like a good wife of an ordinary family.

Xiaohuan had been staring at the medicine bottle, but due to the wide phoenix robe of Xia Qianxin, her vision was blocked for a moment, but it was only a second to lose her sight, and she didn't take it seriously. nodded, "The queen can rest assured, this bottle of medicine was asked for by the slave maid when she left the palace and a hidden old man outside the palace, and the slave maid did not tell her own origin, but only said that she asked for medicine for herself." Niangniang, the slave believes that in the near future, Niangniang will definitely be pregnant with a dragon fetus and benefit the Great Cloud Country! ”

Xia Qian listened to Xiaohuan's explanation, and most of the worries in her heart were dispelled, if someone else gave her a bottle of medicine, she might still be a little guarded, but Xiaohuan was her personal maid, and she had been together for nearly two years, so she didn't have too much defense.

Xia Qianxin, who was in a good mood, focused on the small medicine bottle, and didn't notice that the hands that Xiaohuan crossed and clenched together were already a little white because of the exertion......

At the same time, in another luxurious hall of the Imperial Palace in the capital, a woman dressed in a gorgeous robe and heavy makeup appeared in front of the door, and eight lifelike little larks were embroidered on the chest of her robe, looking at the drowsy weather, her eyes were full of excitement.

"Concubine Chen, right now, God is not beautiful, according to what my sister sees, today is the time when the slut will never turn over, you can take your sisters now and go to her heart palace!" A slightly bloated woman said to the woman in front of the door, with six larks embroidered on her chest.

The person with heavy makeup was Chen Lian, one of the two eight-rank concubines sealed by the emperor.

The harem of the Dayun Dynasty, from low to high, is a concubine to a concubine of the tenth grade, the tenth concubine is the queen, and the concubine is the most humble palace maid.

Chen Lian looked back at the people in the room, they were all sisters who were good friends with her on weekdays, from the sixth concubine to the second concubine, there were more than a dozen people.

In fact, they gathered here today, and they also planned it early. In order to make the emperor completely disappointed in Xia Tianxin, so as to pamper them. Although if there is a conflict between their interests, they will definitely be enemies, but now, they have a common enemy, that is, the contemporary queen - Xia Qingxin!
