Nanqian Ming Zheng Palace

————————————

Ying Qi didn't know anything about what happened between Bei Luo and Wu Rou, he just suddenly sneezed while dealing with official business, and then ordered someone to close all the doors and windows.

At this moment, it was already the third watch, and the prince who was standing on the side changed the left foot that was bearing the weight of his body to his right foot, and quietly straightened his already stiff back, and only then breathed a sigh of relief.

When is such a day a head?

A month ago, after His Majesty came back from Beiluo, he locked himself in this Ming Zheng Palace, busy day and night, and he couldn't understand what to do, so he could only accompany him from sunrise to sunset, from midnight to dawn.

He always wonders, how much energy can a person have, to be able to squander it like this, and it is inexhaustible?

But later, slowly he also figured out some doorways, Your Majesty is afraid that he is suffering from insomnia, and he wants to sleep but can't sleep......

He still remembered that evening half a month ago, there were one hundred and ten people kneeling in the Ming Zheng Palace, all of whom were spies sent back from Beiluo. These people have a variety of identities and stay in a foreign country all the year round, and their mission and purpose are only one, to send the news of the Empress of Beiluo to the imperial case as soon as possible.

Now they are back, and none of them are back.

With these people coming back, there was a boatload of things, and after His Majesty received it, he sat on a blue cloud pattern brocade couch for a long time before muttering in a low voice, "It's really clean......

Then he ordered all these things to be burned, except for the blue cloud brocade couch where he was sitting.

Thinking of this, the prince couldn't help but sigh in his heart again. He is just a rootless person, he should have no emotions and six desires, Rao felt warm and sad when he saw the scene at that time.

Those people and things, or the things left by His Majesty when he left, are now all sent back, aren't they clean?

The empress of Beiluo, the queen mother who suddenly ascended, I am afraid that she will never come back......

Another sleepless night passed, Ying Qi rubbed his sour eyebrows, let the prince go down to rest, and he changed his clothes and drove up Mount Canaan.

The Empress Dowager Nan was naturally surprised and delighted when she saw her son coming, and took his hand and hurriedly asked questions, but she was prevaricated by the sentence "I am fine, and the queen mother does not need to worry".

Empress Dowager Nan frowned and sighed and stopped talking, but Ying Qi opened her mouth and made a request, "Queen Mother, my son came here this time to hope that you can do me a favor." ”

"There is no one in my palace, and it is very lonely at night, so I think I should add more people when I think about it. The last general election ended without a hitch, so let's do it well this time. ”

"I will naturally take it myself and take it seriously, but I also hope that your old man can help me to avoid mistakes."

"Your old man is highly respected, and with you in charge, I can rest easy."

After hearing this, the Empress Dowager Nan opened her mouth and was stunned for a long time. Her son's mind is clear as a mother

Chu can't do it, even if there are all kinds of insurmountable obstacles, even if she sends people to the other side of a foreign country with her own hands, even if she sees that there is no hope, she hasn't seen her son give up even a little, how can this suddenly enlighten?

"Ying Qi ......" she couldn't help asking: "Are you serious?"

Ying Qi nodded very cautiously, and the Empress Dowager Nan also responded very seriously, no matter what, thinking about it is better than anything else.

As the days passed, the draft was carried out in an orderly manner, with a speed and efficiency beyond everyone's imagination. In just half a month, hundreds of eligible women stood on top of the main hall.

In fact, if it is customary, at this time, you should continue to observe and screen a few times, leaving the best dozens of people to conduct the palace selection, but His Majesty the Southern Emperor attaches extraordinary importance to this draft, and it is really as he said, and he does it himself.

Ying Qi sat on the high platform, called each of the selected women in front of him in turn, and asked a few words carefully, and the kindness of his attitude made everyone feel the same way, this majesty really likes them.

Once again, surprisingly, in the end, only one woman was left behind, and the jaws of a group of people were shocked, and people speculated whether His Majesty the Southern Emperor had something wrong with his eyes?

The only woman who was selected was so ordinary!

Not only does he not have outstanding appearance, but even his talent is lackluster, standing among these beauties, at best, he is just a soy sauce player, how can he look at it?

Empress Dowager Nan only glanced at her son, and did not say any objections, and now in her heart, the request for her son's selection is that there is no requirement!

The prince who was standing on the side had another kind of thinking, this woman was not useless, at least her voice sounded clear and moving, as good as the queen mother who had ascended to the Tao.

No matter what kind of thoughts others had, this woman was arranged to enter the palace that day and lived in Zixiaxuan, which was very close to the Ming Palace.

The woman who lived in it was also very frightened, she didn't know what His Majesty had taken a fancy to her, how could she be the only lucky one with no appearance and no talent? Still, when she heard that His Majesty would be coming in the evening, she dressed herself up so that she might look a little stunning.

Trembling sat in the room and waited, when the time came, there was a bustling movement outside, she wanted to come out to greet her, so she was pressed by her father-in-law who came in advance and sat in front of the desk, and then the lights of the entire Zixia Xuan were extinguished in turn, and it was dark and only the moonlight outside.

At this moment, a young man dressed in Yuehua walked in, sat down on a chair prepared at the door, and the door was shut.

A heart suddenly beat violently, Your Majesty is beautiful and warm, and she is warm and amiable, she will be tempted by a woman......

Just as she was hesitating to take the initiative to speak, a gentle voice sounded, "Don't be restrained, let's talk casually......"

Casual chat? It was hard for her. she

It's just a female stream, and her daily life is nothing more than embroidering flowers and planting grass, what can you talk about with the king of a country?

As if knowing the woman's dilemma, the gentle voice asked, "Do you know how to embroider?"

The woman suddenly became excited when she heard this, she couldn't do anything else, she was still very good at embroidery, and immediately nodded heavily, "Back to Your Majesty, concubine, you will." ”

The other side was silent for a while, and then demanded: "In the future, in this room, call me Yingqi, and you don't call yourself a concubine, just say I'll be fine."

This...... How can this be? The woman was horrified in her heart, this is not only a violation of the morality of the women, this is a contempt for the monarch, how dare she?

"Don't be afraid, I say yes." The voice on the other side soothed again: "You repeat what you just said as I requested."

Hearing this, the woman forcibly endured the uneasiness in her heart, and as soon as she spoke, her voice trembled, "Ying...... Ying Qi......, I ...... I would ......."

"Good, good." The gentle voice softly encouraged, "Make your voice a little louder, soften your tone a little more, and do it all over again."

The woman swallowed her saliva with difficulty, tried hard to do what she was asked to do, raised her voice and said again, "Ying Qi, I will ......"

"Okay, it's much better than just now, try to add a little willfulness this time."

......

Tossed back and forth several times, under tireless guidance, the woman finally mastered all the requirements one by one, and when she said these four words for the last time, the other side was silent for a long time.

Since then, His Majesty the Southern Emperor would come to Zixia Xuan every night, but he only listened to the woman talk about all kinds of boring boudoir things in the dark, but he listened very seriously, and occasionally interrupted to remind this place of what tone and way to speak.

After a long time, the woman also had her own experience, and she more deliberately imitated this way of speaking, and sure enough, His Majesty interrupted her less often, and even talked to her a few words, and her voice was as gentle as the water of the spring river......

Just when she was secretly happy, after a few days, His Majesty the Southern Emperor did not come to Zixiaxuan again, and the woman felt that she might have been disgusted, after all, what she said was so boring. Unexpectedly, a few days later, His Majesty suddenly arrived and asked her only one question.

"Do you love me?"

At first hearing this, the woman was so frightened that she immediately panicked, and forgot all the things she had remembered before, and knelt on the ground and replied, "Your Majesty...... Your Majesty ......, concubine...... The concubine loves you......"

As soon as the words fell, the voice on the other side immediately became cold, "Get up, say it again!" ”

"Say you love me!"

Seeing that she had angered Long Yan, the woman hurriedly got up from the ground, adjusted her breathing, and said in the most affectionate and gentle tone......

"Ying Qi, I love you......"

In the darkness, the woman saw the man dressed in moonlight stretch out his hand to her, and after a brief pause, she fell down dejectedly......

In her later life, every time the moon was shining on a bright night, the woman would always remember how lonely and lonely the back of the person who turned around and left on such a night......

That night, His Majesty the Southern Emperor led the army to leave in person, and the candle flame of Zixiaxuan was also lit again. Wang Gonggong looked at the woman's confused and annoyed face, and couldn't help but shake his head, the most difficult thing in the world to guess is the heart of the emperor, I can only guess one or two by my side every day, let alone you?

The next day, the woman was sent out of the palace, according to the holy decree of His Majesty the Southern Emperor, the second half of her life was rich and happy, her husband and son were filial, others were very envious, but the woman always had a feeling that she was being happy for others.
