There has always been only the harem concubines to please the emperor, with the heart of the king, how can the emperor go to great lengths to please a woman?

As an emperor, Emperor Yuanqing can only give a little reward to a concubine when he is in a good mood, and say a few nice words to make these concubines happy. Thinking about it, Emperor Yuanqing's means of coaxing women are not very good, and I am afraid that even an ordinary man is not as good as this.

Xia Jinse is a woman, so she naturally understands that most women are emotional.

There is no woman who doesn't like jewelry, flowers are romantic, if you don't like it, it's definitely because you are poor and dare not ask for it, and you have to say something against your heart because you are afraid of men's self-esteem and face. Otherwise, it's the person who gave the gift is wrong!

The woman that Emperor Yuanqing liked even broke his head, thinking that he had a deep hatred in his heart, and even gave up his life when he hurt him. Although Xia Jinse didn't know about the festival between the two, he also knew that when a woman hated, no matter what a man sent, it would not be uncommon.

"So the emperor, you must first make her happy, then you must not let her know that this matter was done by the emperor for her. Otherwise, when she heard that it was the emperor, she hated Wu and Wu, which would only have the opposite effect. ”

Xia Jinse thought about it while asking Gonggong Lu to prepare something, as well as pen, ink, paper, inkstone, etc., ready to use for a while.

Gonggong Lu hurriedly went, and Emperor Yuanqing was a little unsure: "Girl, are you okay?" ”

"Custodian! This gift, even if the emperor doesn't give it in person, she can receive it, and she can't refuse it. Perhaps, she looked at it and felt comfortable and happy. ”

Xia Jinse began to tell Emperor Yuanqing about the psychology of women, what can't be rushed, to slowly figure it out, to do what it likes, women eat soft and not hard, to coax, but also to coax to the idea......

"Well, it seems to make some sense." Emperor Yuanqing seemed to believe it or not, but he kept nodding.

……

It was getting dark, and the lights were already lit up all over the palace.

In Shoukun Palace, the Queen Mother had just finished eating, and she was eating a small piece of watermelon, which was sweet and delicious, full of juice in one bite, and her wrinkles were deeper when she smiled.

"The Queen Mother, the melon is delicious but cold, but there can't be too much, the body is important." On the side, Mama Song said intimately.

"Know! Even if the mourning family wants to eat, you won't let the mourning family eat it......" The queen mother shook her head and sighed: "Hey, the mourning family is old, and even eating a melon has to be taken care of." ”

Mama Song hurriedly said: "How dare the slave and maid take care of the queen mother?" It's about the Queen Mother. ”

"The mourning family knows, and I don't blame you." The Queen Mother was happy.

At this time, the palace maid Cai Qing walked in and said happily: "Queen Mother, there are suddenly a lot of sky lanterns in the sky outside, very beautiful, do you want to go out and have a look?" ”

The Queen Mother was a little strange: "It's not a festival today, why are the lights on?" ”

When the group arrived in the courtyard, they saw that on the black canopy in the distance, countless sky lanterns were exuding light, like stars in the sky, flickering and flickering, which made people intoxicated.

"So many, who's putting it?" The Queen Mother was surprised and delighted, such a beautiful scenery is rare to see, it is really beautiful.

Mama Song looked at the direction: "It seems that the direction of Zichen Hall should be sent by the emperor, right?" ”

"Why is the emperor putting on the lamp, this is not a New Year or a festival?"

"It must be for the Queen Mother to see, I want to surprise the Queen Mother."

Mama Song pointed to the sky and said with a smile: "Queen Mother, please see, this sky lantern full of sky, how beautiful, it carries the wishes of the subjects, can be seen by the heavens, it will definitely bless the Queen Mother's health, the emperor's blessings come to the east, and I will celebrate the peace of the country and the people." ”

"Good, good......" The Queen Mother smiled happily.

……

The people of Fengluan Palace also saw the sky lantern.

Empress Xiao was sullen, Emperor Yuanqing hadn't come to her palace for a long time, during the day, she sent someone to bring refreshments to Emperor Yuanqing, but Emperor Yuanqing couldn't see him, and asked her not to do much. She was angry......

"Look, mother!" Suddenly, Bai Lu, the palace maid next to her, pointed out the window and said in surprise: "It's so beautiful!" ”

Looking down, the starry light in the sky fell into Queen Xiao's eyes, and she was first happy: "How can someone put the lamp?" So many ......" Before she finished speaking, she reacted, and her face sank: "Apart from the emperor, who else dares to put lights in the palace at this time?" ”

Today is not a festival, nor is it a New Year, why did the emperor put the lights?

For the sake of the national fortune? Wrong! Pray for good weather? It shouldn't be, the weather has been good recently, it's not for this reason, is it whose birthday did the emperor deliberately put a lamp on this person?

The more Empress Xiao thought about it, the more unhappy she became, the emperor who could be tempted to make such a big battle must be Concubine Yu.

But isn't Concubine Yu's birthday today? Could it be someone else?

"Hmph, close the window, this palace can't see these eyesore, upset!" Empress Xiao spitted, got up and walked towards the bamboo couch, and sat down angrily.

When the other palace maids heard this, they hurriedly closed the window in a panic, and they didn't stop until there was no light at all.

Not only the queen, but everyone who did not sleep in the palaces saw it.

The night breeze blows, and even the stars in the sky lose their brilliance.

The soft light brings warmth, illuminating the tranquility of the night, like a peaceful and prosperous world. Some people rejoice, some resent, some silently long, and some pious wishes......

The deepest part of the harem, the most dilapidated cold palace.

A plain-clothed woman stood at the door of the hall, quietly looking at the stars in the sky, there seemed to be light in her eyes, it was a light that had been dead for a long time, and then rekindled. This night, tonight, she remembered the past many years ago, the carefree years.

At that time, it was really good, but it's a pity......

"Niangniang, it's late at night, go back to your room to rest?" A palace maid walked out and reminded in a low voice.

The plain-clothed woman looked at the sky for a moment: "Don't worry about me, I'll take a look, you go down." ”

The palace maid couldn't be persuaded to move, so she could only retreat.

……

Prime Minister's House.

Xia Yanxiu listened to a eunuch and said: "Master, Gonggong Lu asked the miscellaneous family to come and tell Xia Xiang, Miss Xia has something to do, stay in the palace for one night, and come back tomorrow, so that Xia Xiang doesn't have to worry." ”

"Yes, there is Father-in-law."

Xia Yanxiu responded, and said strangely: "I don't know what the emperor has to do to leave the little girl, could it be ......?"

The eunuch said with a smile: "The emperor and Miss Xia are putting the sky lantern, and they accidentally delayed the hour, so they didn't have time to leave the palace." It's okay, Miss Xia will be back tomorrow. ”

"What, put the sky lanterns?" Xia Yanxiu listened to it and opened his mouth, did he hear it wrong?

"If Xia Xiang is fine, the miscellaneous family will retire." The eunuch said.

Xia Yanxiu reacted at this time: "There is labor, Wu is in charge, send my father-in-law out." ”

After watching the eunuch leave, Xia Yanxiu's smiling face sank.

He didn't expect that Xia Jinse would stay in the palace and not come back, so he really accompanied the emperor to put the lantern? What is the reason for this, could it be that the emperor summoned her in a hurry today just to put a sky lantern?

When Zhao heard this, he also felt strange: "Master, this is not right, even if the emperor wants to put a lamp, he will only put a lamp with the queen mother or the jade concubine, what kind of lamp will he put with that girl?" Isn't that strange? ”

Xia Yanxiu frowned: "It's really strange, but why is the emperor like this?" ”

"The emperor will be half a hundred in a few years, Xia Jinse's girl is not yet sixteen, an emperor, a courtier, these two people who are not related! If it weren't for treatment, I'm afraid that she and the emperor wouldn't even be able to say a word, but what does it mean to put on the lamp? ”

Zhao was just talking, but the more he analyzed, the more suspicious he felt: "That girl came back from the border to be married, but now that it's been more than two months, she doesn't mention marriage." I have never seen her have a close relationship with the eldest prince and the second prince, but she often enters the palace ......"

Xia Yanxiu seemed to hear a little taste, and became suspicious: "You mean ......?"

Zhao suddenly exclaimed: "Master, the concubine suspects that there is something wrong with that girl!" I don't like the young prince, but I get too close to an elder like the emperor, what does the lord mean by her? ”

Like a blow to the head, Xia Yanxiu blurted out: "You mean her...... She fell in love with the emperor? ”

This simply subverted his cognition, he never thought that his eldest daughter would like the emperor!

Thinking about the recent events, Xia Yanxiu also felt that there were some possibilities.

Since the time when he met the emperor in the palace and was stabbed, Xia Jinse treated the emperor's injuries for the first time, and he knew that Xia Jinse had entered the palace several times one after another. Could it be that because of this, the emperor began to look at her differently, so he rewarded so many things, and even gave it to the imperial chef, otherwise, how could other people have this kind of honor?

Could it be that the emperor also likes Xia Jinse now?

With a bang, the door was suddenly opened, and Xia Mengyao stumbled in, her face full of shock, and shouted: "Dad, mother, you said that the eldest sister and the emperor...... No, how could the emperor like her? ”

"Why are you here? Who let you eavesdrop! Xia Yanxiu saw that not only the third daughter was here, but even the second daughter was standing at the door, looking incredulous.

Originally, Xia Ruxue took Xia Mengyao to eavesdrop on them, thinking that their parents were talking about themselves and the eldest prince, who knew that they would hear gossip about Xia Jinse and the emperor, which immediately surprised them.

Xia Mengyao rushed in directly, and as soon as she shouted, she asked Zhao to cover her mouth: "You be quiet, you're going to die!" ”

"Mother, how is this possible, I don't believe it!" Xia Mengyao's eyes widened.

Xia Yanxiu and Zhao also felt that it was impossible, but after analyzing the facts, this was the result.

In the past, the emperor gave Xia Jinse all kinds of rewards, and that's it. Later, even the imperial kitchen was given, which began to be wrong, and tonight directly let Xia Jinse stay in the palace, what else did the two of them play to put sky lanterns...... Sky! Isn't that okay!?

Xia Yanxiu was stunned in shock, the Zhao family was so panicked that the six gods were masterless, if their guess was true, wouldn't it mean that Xia Jinse might be a mother in a short time?

Xia Mengyao opened her mouth and stopped doing it: "I don't want it!" Why is the eldest sister a mother, she is so ugly, what does the emperor like about her? If she becomes a mother, then won't I kneel down when I see her in the future? ”

Zhao scolded: "What nonsense, the eight characters haven't been skimmed yet!" ”

On the side, Xia Ruxue's fingers curled up one by one, her eyes were gloomy, and her silver teeth were clenched.

She didn't expect that Xia Jinse didn't fight with her from beginning to end, and there was no rare prince at all, but the emperor who directly looked at her!

This slut really has a big heart and wants to ascend to the sky in one step!
