Tourmaline Palace.

Xiao Tao washed the clothes of the palace people, and did not dare to slack off, since Concubine Xi took her in, she had never had a different heart.

Jasmine looked at Xiao Tao's working figure, hooked the corners of her lips, so she swaggered in front of her, threw the clothes that had been piled up for several days into the bucket, looked at her and said: "This is the mother's previous clothes, as well as my and Ding Lan's clothes, since the little peach girl likes to wash clothes so much, then wash all these clothes for us." ”

“……”

Xiao Tao raised her almond eyes to look at him with a blank face.

"Look, that's what you're going to do, what's up?"

"It's nothing, Sister Jasmine just leave these things, I'll wash it as soon as possible."

"Hurry up and wash it before dark, or you won't eat tonight!"

Xiao Tao nodded, looked at Jasmine's figure, and washed her clothes diligently after walking away.

Lu Xiyi will go to enjoy the flowers in the morning, and he also wants to take this opportunity to see Zhong Yihan.

"Niangniang used to like cloves the most, why has the taste changed recently?"

Zhong Yihan buried his head, and his voice became very thin after being disguised, just like a woman.

"That's my favorite flower in the past, and of course my preferences are going to change now, and people can't always be the same."

Lu Xiyi said, reaching out to touch the peony standing on the side, the flowers in the garden are very bright, and almost every one of them is to dominate the crowd and dominate.

"If Niangniang likes it, there are seeds from the Western Regions and Southern Xinjiang in the flower room, I heard that this kind of blue rose is rare in the world."

"It's not like I haven't seen a blue rose."

Lu Xiyi said this sentence casually, Zhong Yihan's eyes were full of surprise, and Lu Xiyi immediately changed his words: "I mean that there will be craftsmen in the palace who spray blue powder on the roses, so they will become blue roses, but this kind of flower does not have a long lifespan, and it will wither in less than three days." ”

"So that's what the mother said."

Zhong Yihan lowered his head, Lu Xiyi felt that the conversation with his current identity was full of novelty, and at this time, Ding Lan stepped forward and said, "Niangniang, Your Majesty is waiting for you in the main hall when you come." ”

"Qi Yan ......"

Qi Yan was holding scissors in his hand to prune the flowers and plants, and after hearing Qi Yan's name, his expression was even more stiff, Lu Xiyi knew what he was guarding the Tourmaline Palace for, so he shouted at him: "You go and plow the grass in the backyard first, you don't need to do it here." ”

"Yes."

Ding Lan felt that this little eunuch was really strange, whether it was from his divine actions or his eyes, there was no one who looked like a slave at all.

But he still suppressed the doubts in his heart, and went to the main hall with her, Qi Yan saw Lu Xiyi, and stepped forward to hold her hand with a joyful expression: "I heard that you saved a little palace maid who fell into the water the day before yesterday." ”

"I didn't expect this trivial matter to reach the emperor's ears, what's wrong?" Lu Xiyi deliberately broke free from his hand and sat to the side, looking very arrogant.

"It's nothing, I just came to say hello, the king of the Southern Dynasty didn't do anything to you that day." Lu Xiyi waved his hand and said, "What are they doing to me, but the emperor, he has been in the palace for many days, and he has done all kinds of evil in the palace, and you don't teach him a lesson?" ”

"I also feel that I have always been in a dilemma, the border of southern Xinjiang, the expansion of power is very fast, the territory is expanding, and I am conspiring with those people in the Western Regions grassland, if I really want to attack our dynasty, it will be easy, so I can't take it lightly."

"It turns out that the emperor is worried about this matter, the emperor should not have come here today just for the little palace maid, is there anything else?" Lu Xiyi talked to him, and his tone was indifferent all the time, and there was no emotion on his face.

"Can't I come to you when I'm fine?" Qi Yan was quite puzzled, he just wanted to come and take a look, but he didn't expect her to have such an attitude, but he was used to it, as long as he could see her, it would be good.

"Or love the concubine is smart, the prince of the Southern Dynasty made a request to me, he wants to bring Xiao Tao back to Southern Xinjiang, he has so many people in the palace, he has never mentioned which palace maid to bring back, I think this prince of the Southern Dynasty should really like Xiao Tao."

Lu Xiyi's face changed, and he quickly got up and said, "Impossible, we all know what kind of character the prince of the Southern Dynasty is, and I can't let Xiao Tao go back with him." ”

"Don't be excited, concubine, I can understand your hard work now, you brought Xiao Tao back, naturally take care of her in every way, but on the side of the prince of the Southern Dynasty, I really don't know how to refuse, besides, it's not too ......much to just ask for a palace maid."

"Your Majesty, he is a barbarian, if Xiao Tao wants to go with him, I will never agree."

Qi Yan touched his nose, and suddenly felt a little difficult, on the one hand, the insistence of the concubine to stay, and on the other hand, the aggressiveness of the prince of the Southern Dynasty, if only a small peach can be exchanged for stability on both sides, this is a good thing.

"Why didn't Concubine Ai think about it?" Qi Yan asked softly, not wanting her emotions to be extreme, only to see Lu Xiyi gritting his teeth firmly and said, "Your Majesty, if you still insist on making decisions about Xiao Tao's affairs, you can go back first."

Xiao Tao, I already recognize her as my sister, if you let my sister marry, it will be equivalent to packing me up and sending me away, Your Majesty, judge for yourself. ”

"This ...... Love Concubine. ”

Qi Yan looked at her with a look of wanting to cry without tears, and at this time, a little eunuch with a brim walked in, his steps were light, and he was hunched back, with a respectful look, Lu Xiyi caught a glimpse of him from the corner of his eye, and his heart sank, this is not Zhong Yihan. How could he come over and deliver tea in a good way?

Taking advantage of this time to come and deliver tea, it was nothing more than to assassinate Qi Yan.

Lu Xiyi's expression became a little flustered, he had to let Zhong Yihan leave this place as soon as possible, what a shrewd person Qi Yan was, if he couldn't assassinate him today, then it would be Zhong Yihan who died.

When Zhong Yihan brought the tea, he deliberately bent his hand to knock over the tea, raised his eyebrows and scolded angrily: "What are you doing, get out of here!" ”

Lu Xiyi had never had such a temper with a scary person, and Qi Yan thought that she was deliberately keeping a straight face because of Xiao Tao's matter, but in fact, she was scolding Huai and venting her anger at him.

The figure of the little eunuch left in a hurry, Qi Yan looked at Lu Xiyi, and said worriedly: "Let's change your clothes first, so as not to catch a cold." ”

"Thank you Your Majesty for your concern, you don't need Your Majesty's care for this little matter, it's just that Xiao Tao's matter, I won't give in, if Your Majesty insists on sending Xiao Tao away, then send me away too, anyway, I'm tired of staying in the Tourmaline Palace."

"Aifei, what are you talking about, how can I be willing to send you away?"
