Chapter 507: Her Secret
Ye Qingyan dreamed at night because of the embroidery of the Yao Palace, which was all the experience of the Yao Palace and the Chi Palace.
And the two places are interspersed...... She was so tired that she didn't sleep well all night.
Although she was mentally tired, her body was still comfortable, and her body was very warm, because Xiao Changqi was holding her.
"Awake?" A slightly hoarse voice sounded from above his head.
Ye Qingyan opened his eyes, his eyes were still bloodshot, and he looked up at Xiao Changqi, "Didn't Your Majesty go to the court?" β
"It's already down."
"Oh, the concubine is very lacking, the queen mother may not be able to go, Your Majesty will help the concubine to accompany the queen mother."
"As I have already said, the queen mother now values the queen mother the most important thing is the imperial heir, so it is a good thing for her to sleep lazily."
"The concubine can also coerce the emperor's heir to be lazy in the future."
"Hehe, let's sleep a little longer, I've been talking all night in my dreams."
Dream talk? Ye Qingyan woke up in an instant, and all the sleepy insects on his body were shocked!
"What did the concubine say?" In her dream last night, it was either Yao Palace or Chi Palace, so she couldn't have said something she shouldn't have said, right?
"What, Master is ...... in the pool hall" Xiao Changqi said this with an inquiring look in his eyes.
"Is it only Master?" Ye Qingyan asked nervously.
Xiao Changqi thought for a while, and finally confirmed: "Yes, only Master." β
That's okay, it's just a master, there is no big baby, Ye Qingyan closed his eyes vigorously, thinking in his head, how to fulfill this dream...... No, since it's a dream talk, it's naturally nonsense, and there's no need to be round.
"The concubine's dream is also messy, I don't remember it very well, the concubine will sleep for a while."
"Okay."
Ye Qingyan closed her eyes, and her body pressed against him again, but her belly, which had become bigger, made her no longer able to cling to him as tightly as before.
Xiao Changqi also took action to protect her stomach, "In the past few days, the officials who have been released from abroad have gone to Beijing to report on their work, and there have been a lot of mistakes in Enke's affairs, so I may not have time to accompany you." β
"It doesn't matter during the day, Your Majesty doesn't need to pay attention to the concubines, but when you sleep at night, you must accompany the concubines."
"I promise you." Xiao Changqi gently patted her back, "Let's sleep a little longer." β
Ye Qingyan, who had no sleepiness, fell asleep again in Xiao Changqi's warm embrace and pat.
And after she fell asleep, the expression on Xiao Changqi's face became more and more solemn.
He is now sure that her secret is related to Chi Dian!
For a while, she was in a very bad mood, and she fell asleep at night with tears in her pillow...... It was also the first time he heard the name 'Chiden'.
It wasn't until she became pregnant that she returned to normal.
Chi Dian, what secrets does she have?
Is it really related to the White Owl? Why does he feel as if he has nothing to do with the white owl. Also, she has never shied away from talking to him about Bai Xiao, if she really experienced it with Bai Xiao, she shouldn't have told her.

Changle Palaceββ
The queen mother took scissors, cut the thread, and then shook the cute little belly pocket with a peony flower embroidered in bright yellow in her hand.
Mama Yuan brought a plate of grapes over and put it on the coffee table in the Queen Mother's hand.
"This peony flower is so beautiful, just like the real thing."
"You can't just be a brat, if you are a little princess in your life, the mourning family also likes it."
"What the Queen Mother said is, but it is better to be a little prince, and it is beneficial to Jiangshan Sheji. The princess can be born in the future, and there is no shortage of them. β
"Alas! If the daughter of the mourning family can survive...... Now it's eighteen. The Queen Mother remembered the past and sighed.
A maid entered the palace.
"Back to the Queen Mother, Concubine Li is here."
"Concubine Li?" The Queen Mother looked at Mama Yuan and saw that she was also confused, so she said, "Let her in." β
Soon, Concubine Li came in with a red silk brocade box in her hand.
"The concubine knocks on the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother is blessed with Jin'an." Concubine Li Ting saluted dignifiedly.
"Get up." The queen mother smiled, looked at Concubine Li with a kind face, and raised her hand.
Concubine Li got up, "Queen Mother, this is the concubine's mother, it's not a precious thing, I don't know if you like it or not." β
The Queen Mother glanced at the box in her hand and said with a smile: "Good boy, if you have this heart, the mourning family will be very happy, and you don't need to send things." β
"This is what a concubine should do." Concubine Li gave the brocade box to Mama Yuan.
Mama Yuan opened the brocade box first to see what was inside.
It is a number of dried flowers, similar to safflower, but yellow in color.
The Queen Mother glanced at it and asked Concubine Li, "What is this?" β
Li Concubine replied: "This is called rejuvenation flower, if you drink it regularly, it has the effect of prolonging life, especially for the eyes." The concubine heard that the Queen Mother sewed small clothes for Her Royal Highness. Inevitably, my eyes will get tired, so I remembered this. The concubine's grandmother often drank this rejuvenation flower, and now her eyes are not flowery, and her hair is rarely white. β
"That's good." The Queen Mother was surprised, and then raised her hand to touch her hair, since her legs were paralyzed and blind, she had aged faster and faster, and now she had three or four points of white hair, especially the sideburns.
"The Queen Mother can try it, if the drink is good, the concubine will send it to you again." Concubine Li smiled whimsily.
The Queen Mother nodded, "Okay, it's rare for you to have a filial piety." Mama Yuan, take two boxes of jade snow cream sent by the queen a few days ago and reward them to Concubine Li. β
"Thank you for the grace of the Queen Mother." Concubine Li was busy thanking.
Jade snow cream, the box is made of high-grade jade, from the hands of the famous craftsmen of the imperial court, His Majesty is particularly gracious. It is conceivable that each jade box is extremely exquisite, and the meaning of the shape and color is different, and it is more than enough for the empty box to be used as an ornament.
Moreover, the seal of these jade boxes is also a small mechanism, as long as it is opened, it can no longer be restored to its original state, in order to prevent the appearance of fakes. At the bottom of the jade box, there are the names of famous craftsmen, which can be traced back to the roots.
Since the boxes are so precious, the balm in nature is not comparable to ordinary snow cream. It is said that after use, the skin will be as white and clear as snow within seven days, and if you apply it all over the body, the fragrance will last for a long time.
The number of jade snow cream is very small, and there are only two boxes in each Yipin balm store. And the palace is also the queen mother's unlimited supply, and the concubines of other palaces, regardless of location, only have one box per month, and there is no more, and they can't buy it at a high price.
I heard that the market has raised the price to 100,000 taels a box. Some people even paid attention to the mother's family of the harem concubines, because of the queen's grace, regardless of their status, their mother family can enter the palace every month to have a look. Concubines, you can give away the box of jade snow cream in your hand. Moreover, the people in the inner prison will not check this with a blind eye.
