The current queen Li Xiu is the young lady of the Li family's side branch.

Since childhood, he has been familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, knows the name of etiquette, is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, has a gentle temperament, is dignified and generous, and her appearance is also one of the best Peugeot beauties in Yicheng.

There are few young men in Yicheng who don't admire this queen.

It's just a pity that the daughters of the Li family are all queen's candidates before they get married, but once they are selected, the threshold of the Li family, whether it is their own family or a side branch, will be broken.

That is, there has been a stupid Li Yintong in these years, I originally thought she was the new queen, but I didn't expect to be protected by Li Xiang and Mrs. Li, even after the ceremony, no one came to the door.

It's not that no one proposes marriage, it's that no one dares.

Mrs. Li is too fierce.

The matchmakers who were beaten out of the Prime Minister's Mansion have more than a dozen, if not dozens.

If Li Yintong is just a young lady from an ordinary family, then who would be willing to desperately beg to marry a fool?

Speaking of which, Li Yintong and Li Xiu have never met.

One is that Li Yintong is a young lady of the family, and because of his illness, he almost does not see outsiders, and the other is that Li Xiu is just a side branch lady, and she rarely has the opportunity to step into the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The Li family has rules, the family and the side branch live their own lives, there is no major event and never come and go, every New Year's holiday, just give a gift, don't come.

On the surface, it seems to be ruthless and ruthless, but in fact, the first head of the Li family set this rule, just in case, if one day, something big goes wrong with one family, it will not affect the whole family.

After all, one of the daughters of the Li family must be the queen.

The affairs of the harem are usually related to the previous dynasty, the queen is the mother of a country, and it is impossible to make a mistake for half a point, and if you take a wrong step, the cost will be immeasurable.

Therefore, the person who is chosen to be the queen must be the best daughter in the whole clan.

Li Xiu, just by hearing the name, you know, it is indeed very showy.

Her words and deeds, every smile, every move, has been trained since she was a child to be measured with a ruler, her homework, from childhood to adulthood, every subject is a full score, and strive for perfection.

Not long after Li Tong came here, he specially inquired about the queen.

How so?

I'm quite grateful to her.

Thank you for all the dedication and sacrifice she has made for the Li family.

I also feel sorry for her.

I feel sorry for her family, suppressing her nature, walking into the deep palace that eats people and does not spit out bones, shares grace with those women from different families, and unscrupulously stabilizes her position and fights for power and profit.

"Not what my dad meant." With a little force, Li Yinzhi pulled the shovel out of the ground and brought out a large piece of soil, he turned around and showed two rows of white teeth at Baili Xian: "Perhaps, the saint should go back and ask our good queen about her heart." ”

He raised his eyebrows with her, respected each other like a guest, and never blushed because of such a trivial matter as concubines competing for favor, she was the most generous woman he had ever seen in the entire Qingqi, choosing a concubine for him, raising a son for him, handling all the chores of the harem for him, and never complaining.

Their wedding is the grandest in the world, with the blessing of God, congratulations from hundreds of officials, and admiration by all the people.

It should have been a happy day, but she didn't laugh.

She probably didn't love him.

Baili Xian didn't ask any more questions, perhaps, he should indeed have a good talk with this queen.

They don't seem to have spent much time together in the world, and the longest time is probably on the day of their wedding, right?

Well, that day, they stayed together for a whole day and a night.

It was also the happiest day in my short life.

At sunset, Baiguan retired, Baili Xian was escorted back to the palace, and he couldn't wait to go back to repair and bathe, so he directly arranged for people to go to Luanfeng Palace.

Li Xiu thought that he would not come, after all, he had been taking hundreds of officials to the ground during this time, and he lay down as soon as he returned to the palace, and he couldn't even see his face.

On this day, it should be the same.

And unexpectedly, she took off her makeup, bathed in the bath, and even planned to let her palace maid turn off the lights, but saw the chamberlain rushing in.

"Niangniang, the emperor is here!"

The comb in her hand fell to the ground, oh no, she couldn't let him see her appearance without makeup, how ugly!

"Pick clothes, groom!"

"Don't bother, I'll have to rest for a while anyway."

Before Baili Xian arrived, the voice had already floated in from outside the door, Li Xiu hurriedly saluted, but the person had already reached out to support her when she had just bent her knees.

How is he so fast?

Without powder, Li Xiu didn't dare to raise her head, and stood in front of Baili Xian with her eyes down, her body stiff, like a delicate doll without winding, being led by Baili Xian, and following suit.

He sat down, and she stood.

One looked up, and the other looked down and didn't dare to look more.

For a long time, the atmosphere was stagnant.

Baili Xian suddenly laughed, he came, there should have been an internal servant to report, but he suddenly wanted to come back secretly and hit her off guard, but he didn't expect that there would be someone guarding outside Luanfeng Palace, as soon as he saw his shadow, he immediately ran back, and he didn't stop him.

The little waiter, his legs and feet are too fast.

This was the first time he had come so unfairly, just to see what she was like when he was away.

Take off the heavy makeup, at this time, she is beautiful and lovely, her eyebrows and eyes are more delicate, there is no heavy fat powder, she seems more pitiful and attractive, although she did not speak, but the trembling long eyelashes exposed her anxious and uneasy mood.

Bai Li Xian likes her very much, nervous, uneasy, and makes people want to protect.

And not the queen who can hold all the queens alone.

She should be his little girl, a little girl who can rely on him, can be coquettish with him, and can lose her temper with him.

Isn't that her sister such a girl?

I heard that his fourth uncle, who was terrified of his enemies on the battlefield, was also eaten to death by her, but she didn't know it.

"Xiuxiu ......" Baili Xian suddenly spoke, his gentle voice was even gentler and softer than usual, like a cloud on the horizon suddenly floating in front of him, and was gently swept by a gust of wind.

Li Xiu shuddered suddenly, raised her head in a panic, and there was a consternation in her eyes that could not be hidden.

He had never called her that.

This is the first time.

What does he want to do?

Was his previous caution guessed by him?

Did you come to Xingshi to ask for sin?

But isn't it for his own good?

He can't punish her!

"The Emperor...... The Emperor ......"

Why don't you admit your mistake first?

Half of the first hand is lost.

Reasonable.

"Your Majesty, the concubine is wrong!" Li Xiu said, and knelt down with a bitter little face: "The concubine should not be calculating to the emperor's uncle, and should not deceive the emperor, don't punish the concubine with a cane, the concubine is afraid of pain!" ”

Bai Li Xian didn't speak, a smile spread on her lips, but her hand kept holding her tightly, even if she knelt in front of her, she still didn't let go.

"Do you want to ...... Why don't you ......" Li Xiu pondered for a long time, and asked cautiously: "Punish the concubine and confine, and copy the Buddhist scriptures?" ”

"I won't punish you."

"No punishment?"

Probably because of the sudden fright, the queen, who usually does not leak water, looked a little cute at this time, and got up little by little with the strength of Baili Xian's palm, and finally sat down beside him.

"The killer who assassinated the fourth uncle, was you sent?"

Li Xiu bit her lip and nodded with difficulty.

"Why?"

Although she already had this guess when she came, when she really asked, Baili Xian still had some expectations, and when she nodded, Baili Xian only felt that the flowers that had been frozen in her heart for a long time bloomed countless in an instant, and for a while, the flowers were colorful, and the birds and birds were singing together.

"They all said that I can't be a good emperor, and the fourth uncle is more suitable."

"No!" Li Xiu hurriedly spoke, as if he wanted to immediately dispel Baili Xian's thoughts: "The saint is the emperor of Qingqi and the son of heaven of the people, you have mercy in your heart and the country in your heart, you are not as ruthless and cold as others see, you are just ......"

At this, her voice paused, her chest rose and fell slightly rapidly, and her eyes suddenly reddened.

It's just too well hidden, too deep.

Who said that being an emperor is indescribable in joy and anger.

From childhood to adulthood, everyone told her that she would become the empress, and that all she did was not just to be a man's wife, but to assist this man and make him the most respected emperor of Qingqi.

But why, there is another Baili Ye?

How good would it be if he died?

They said that the throne should have belonged to Baili Ye, she didn't believe it, this throne was obviously Baili Xian, and his name was clearly written on the edict of the first emperor, why did these people have to turn a blind eye?

In this harem, she worked every step of the way, won the hearts of the people, and placed those concubines properly, just so that the ministers of the previous dynasty could support a little more Baili Xian.

She loved him.

But he didn't seem to know.

I heard that Bai Li Ye went to Bianzhou, if he accidentally died there, no one would suspect her, a woman in the harem, perhaps, she could take a gamble.

What if?

But he went to disaster relief, and the people of Bianzhou were still waiting for him.

Or just when you come back?

Li Xiu did this kind of uncertain thing for the first time, just to gamble, she did it secretly, the person she hired was a killer on the rivers and lakes, the killer took money to do things, and the rule was that she would never reveal the patrons behind her.

She was relieved.

And the killer, defeated.

Since Bai Li Xian ascended the throne, Bai Li Ye rarely went to the imperial study, and finally caught once, she always had to test whether he was really injured, if he was really injured, it means that the assassination was effective.

The first time you have no experience, you will definitely not miss the second time.

"Xiuxiu, you don't have to provoke him for my sake. I can do these things, you are my queen, you just need to accompany me, stand by my side, and watch me become the most respected emperor in Qingqi. Bai Li Xian's hand was very big and warm, holding her gently, wrapped firmly.

Li Xiu bit her lip hard, her thoughts, her methods, she thought she was hiding well.

But why was it discovered?

"I'm very happy, Xiuxiu has a heart for me." Baili Xian hugged her, rested his chin on the top of her head, and emphasized solemnly: "I am very happy." ”
