Jingshu has found more than once that when it comes to Xiangxiang, the prince will be interested, although he will not express it very clearly, but men to women, isn't it just a little thing? She was a little hesitant whether she should continue the topic, and when the prince saw her stop, he really asked, "Why don't you continue?" ”

Jing Shu didn't dare to express her disappointment, and hurriedly said: "The concubine body is thinking, whether she is still in the cold palace and with that person, but the concubine went to the cold palace that day and did not find her." ”

Qi Xu recalled Xiangxiang's appearance in front of Concubine Xian that day, and the righteousness and resoluteness in his eyes made him excited, if such a good woman could be by his side......

"Your Highness."

But around, there is only Song Jingshu, this woman who can leave behind all courtesy, righteousness and shame in order to achieve her goal.

"Your Highness." Jing Shu didn't know that he was being despised by the prince in his heart, but asked him with concern if he wanted to drink water or eat, Qi Xu was very impatient, just wanted to drive her away, and remembered Xiangxiang in the cold palace, so he asked, "What are you looking for her?" ”

Jingshu said: "The concubine once told you that she is the best sister of the concubine, and she wants to live a stable life with Her Royal Highness in the future, so that she can be brought back by her side and let her live a good life." ”

Qi Xu squinted and smiled: "So you are so kind? ”

Jing Shu was rarely praised, and couldn't help laughing: "We have been together since we were very young, and she is a relative of the concubine." ”

Qi Xu wanted to get Xiangxiang, even if he had a few words with her, but he understood that Xiangxiang was not a girl like Song Jingshu who could casually play and bully and applaud. She is innocent and holy, she can only watch from a distance, she can only approach slowly, he can't scare other girls, and he is now more curious about what kind of relationship Xiang Xiang has with Qi Hui in the cold palace. Thinking of this, the expression on his face suddenly twitched.

He asked, "Do you see her wearing the same night clothes as Qi Hui?" ”

Jing Shu didn't straighten out the relationship, and asked rhetorically: "Qi Hui? ”

The prince was impatient, and told Jingshu the identity of "that person" clearly again, and finally asked: "They wear the same clothes?" ”

Jingshu became more and more panicked in her heart, why did the prince care so much about Xiangxiang, they only met in the cold palace, what happened she didn't know? Does the prince really like Xiangxiang, a man cares so much about women, what else can he do except love.

"I'll ask you." Seeing that Jingshu was always in a daze, Qi Xu was angry.

"Yes." She came back to her senses, although she was timid, but she still deliberately said, "The concubine feels that Xiangxiang should go in and out with Qi Hui, and she has been taken by Qi Hui all the time, it should be like this." ”

She secretly glanced at the prince, hoping that the prince would stop worrying about Xiangxiang. But it backfired, and the prince said to her: "I will send someone to protect you, and you should know a thing or two about what I am capable of, and try to get as close to your good sister as possible, and think of taking her with you." ”

Jing Shu said yes in a very low voice, Qi Xu could see that she was reluctant, snorted lightly, raised her chin and said, "I will be good to you, good to all of you, do you want to live a stable life?" ”

"Yes."

"Do you want Concubine Li and Sun Zhaoyi to kneel at your feet?"

In a word, Jing Shu's eyes lit up, and the viciousness of those women towards her, she wanted to break them into pieces when she thought about it. When the prince saw that she was coming to the spirit, he knew that she had *, and if she had*, she would have use value, and he believed that Song Jingshu would obediently follow behind him.

"I'm fine here, I don't need you to worry, I care about your sister and bring her to you." The prince touched Jingshu's face, pinched his chin, and his gaze was enough to force her, "You can't even do this thing, right?" ”

Jingshu trembled and agreed, she was very reluctant in her heart, but she couldn't disobey, the prince was her only hope here, if it wasn't hope, she wanted to obey him unconditionally.

"Let's go." The prince really wanted to drive her away, and Jingshu seemed to be used to being despised by it, so she covered the quilt for the prince and turned around to leave.

Qi Xu watched her slender figure sway away gently, and the disappointed eyes that appeared when he turned around touched him slightly, Qi Xu was worried that his blind coldness would make Jing Shu desperate, so he would no longer be obedient to him, a contemptuous smile hooked up on his lips, and he said: "Stay, you stay tonight, just sleep next to me, I need someone to serve me." ”

Jing Shu Huo Ran turned around, and the surprise was undisguised on her face. But when she was lying beside Qi Xu carefully, her body was held in Qi Xu's arms, and she smelled the strong smell of ointment on his body between her snorts, for some reason, all this was different from Jingshu's fantasy.

It's not that the prince is injured and can't * disappointed, or it's not that the strong ointment breath makes her uncomfortable, the feeling brought by this position shouldn't be like this, this is not the embrace that Jingshu looks forward to day and night.

The night passed in a hurry, and Jingshu left the East Palace smoothly the next morning. Only then did she understand why she hadn't been discovered every time she went back and forth to the East Palace before, because it was the prince who asked her to come, since it was the prince's intention, no matter how capable Concubine Li was, she couldn't catch the handle.

How deep is the prince's power in this imperial city, he has hidden it for more than ten or twenty years, I am afraid that even the late queen may not know.

And after two days, the emperor in the Mingde Hall became more and more energetic, he did not have a heart fire and anger to cause an internal wind, and after the drug in his body dissipated, he could move freely.

And the reason why he still has hatred is that under such a debaucherous and erosive life, there is no sign of early decline in his body, maybe it is because he has eaten a lot of tonic for decades, and he was said by Concubine Li, he is an old immortal thing, this time she is empty again, the prince was just beaten, and the emperor was not angry to death.

When the emperor fully woke up, Concubine Li repeatedly mentioned the absurdity of the prince, and wanted to pry the emperor to abolish the prince and support her son to be the East Palace, but the emperor was not stupid, once Concubine Li's son became the prince in the right name, she didn't want to kill herself by all means. Although the emperor is the emperor, he has only one person, and one person has to deal with the harem and the court, live well, and control their rights to suppress them*, the only chance is to win.

He perfunctory Concubine Li: "The third child is only six years old, a little big thing, how can you ask the ministers to agree?" Could it be that the Mo family is a vegetarian, and if the court is not overturned at that time, your mother and son may not have a good result. Anyway, when he grows up to the age of twelve or thirteen, he can do something to compare that stupid thing, and I can make Xiao San'er the prince without any scruples, don't stare at that stupid thing now, he can't become the climate, and he has the spirit to educate Xiao San'er more and train him to be a future Ming Jun. ”

The emperor's words were not painful or itchy, and there was not a word that made Concubine Li see hope. When my son grows up to the age of twelve or thirteen, it will take six or seven years, and what will happen in six or seven years? She didn't even know what tomorrow would bring.

She had to turn all these grievances at Pang Jun, but the prime minister has been in the court for decades, how can he care about the words of a stupid woman with a lust for profit, for him, Concubine Li and the third prince are chess pieces, Qi Hui is also a chess piece, and even the emperor is a chess piece.

It's just that up to now, the only thing Pang Jun regrets is that he despised the prince. The prince's gradually revealing head made him jealous, and the worst thing was that Qi Hui, who could have been used to contain the prince, because he controlled their mother and son too much, I am afraid that he had already defected to the prince's side, regardless of everything, they were brothers and sisters who were connected by blood after all, and he was one of the people who were inseparable from it then and now, and harmed their mother and son to the point of harm.

So, the youngest son became Pang Jun's last bargaining chip, but fortunately, Pang Jun kept a hand, and he hoped that the affection of Shifeng and Qi Hui could turn things around at a critical moment.

On that day, Pang Jun had seen the emperor and Concubine Li in the Mingde Palace, and when he left the imperial city, he deliberately took a detour to the way where he could see the cold palace, and the desolation from the end of the palace road made him more and more unable to see clearly.

At that time, Qi Hui was wandering in the treasury account room of the household department, which was a place where few people in the entire empire could enter, not to mention the secrecy, guarded by layers of guards, when Qi Hui came for the first time, he was almost discovered by the guards.

He wandered between the bookshelves at will, picked up an account book casually, all of which recorded the emperor's extravagance, put it down without interest, and then heard familiar footsteps, and from time to time a young man flashed out, smiling slightly: "Second Highness, I have been waiting for you for two days." ”

"Master Jane." Qi Hao smiled.

The visitor showed a little disappointment, he didn't like to be called Lord Jane, but he called His Royal Highness Qi Hui first, no wonder people came back to tease him, he was a small man in the household, the only son of Jian Feng, who was born in a family of imperial writers.

Back then, the old marquis Jian almost died of anger because his grandson came to the household to be an official, but Jian Feng said that poetry and books were just a pastime for aristocratic literati after they were full of warmth, and they could not relieve the people's livelihood and stabilize the world.

"This is the account of the Mo family's embezzlement of treasury silver in the past two years, if you want me to look for another seven or eight years, you have to give me some time. If it weren't for the face of my grandfather and my father, he would probably have sent me to raise horses. Jian Fengyun smiled lightly and handed over the two account books to Qi Hui's hands.

They are generally old, Jian Feng and Qi Hui didn't know each other at the beginning, but after they met, they became irreversible friends, and even Shifeng was occasionally jealous, but because of various concerns, they rarely saw each other.

"How do you think of the Chamo family, is it Pang Jun's meaning?" Jian Feng leaned on the bookshelf on the side, full of cynical son-in-law temperament, whether it was the officials of the household department or the people of the Jian family, they all felt that this child could not become a talent, and he came to the household department for a few years, only to let the mixed man perfunctory from the five grades.

Qi Hui turned a few pages slightly, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes, "It's a long story. Then he asked, "If you change to a new king, you still plan to stay in the household department." ”

Jian Feng smiled: "I'm going to be the one who wants to be the head of the household, who does he care about as the emperor?" ”

Qi Hao smiled and said nothing, and Jian Feng asked again: "When will you and Niangniang leave?" Why has it dragged on until now, the things in the palace have been going on wave by wave, I am suspenseful for you, that kid from Shifeng, I don't know if I ask three questions. ”
