Chapter 190: Is He Important or Am I?
"I believe in him. Not only because of our friendship, but also because he likes you, how can he get you in danger. "His gaze was so incomprehensible that I couldn't guess what he was thinking.
He already knew Yeluqi's feelings for me?
I was suddenly at a loss, I didn't know if I should explain, and suddenly said nervously, "Actually, I have nothing to do with Yeluqi, don't get me wrong." "As soon as I finished speaking, I regretted it, stupid, why don't you know the truth that the more you describe, the darker it gets! Sure enough, as long as people are in a hurry, they can't care about anything!
secretly looked at Xiao Jincheng's expression, but found that he had closed his eyes, his brows were slightly deep, and he seemed to be very tired and tired.
"Jincheng." I bit my lip and tried to call it more intimate. I've always called him by name and surname, and I'm really uncomfortable with being so intimate all of a sudden, but I can't push Xiao Jincheng away, once there is a gap between me and him, then I won't be able to survive in this harem.
Gently stroked his eyebrows, and soothed his tangled wounds with a soothing.
"Huh?" He let out a low response from his throat. I don't know if you've noticed the change in my title.
I found the most comfortable position in the crook of his arm, and slowly closed the eyes that had already begun to fight, and said, "I...... Love you. "This is probably the first time I've said those three words. I didn't want to say it now, but I couldn't wait until the two of us distanced themselves.
Holding my hand a little harder, he exhaled deeply, "I love you too." ”
Then he hugged me to sleep.
The next day, the lords of the gardens, pavilions, floors, and palaces of the East Palace all came to Zhaofeng Palace to ask for peace.
The beauties are all smiling and wearing makeup, and they also prepare congratulatory gifts to congratulate me on my promotion. I spent the whole day coping with their words and smiling faces. His face was almost stiff to the point of freeze frame.
At this moment, it was Mrs. Qi who came to visit, and she said that she brought her own heart and Concubine Jing's congratulatory gift to congratulate me on my official promotion to the imperial concubine.
I looked at the small piece of gold in the brocade box for a while, and then I heard Mrs. Qi say in that gentle language, "Concubine Jing should have come to meet in person, but she was temporarily affected by the wind and cold, so she couldn't come, but she repeatedly told her to let her concubine bring this gold to the imperial concubine, wishing the imperial concubine to conceive a dragon heir as soon as possible and continue the incense lamp for the royal family." ”
Cold? It's cold at this time, and it seems that she didn't take me seriously. Once I am pregnant, then she can't watch me fight to the death with Xia Guifei, and she will take advantage of the fisherman.
Although I am in the same position as Xia Yu, the phoenix seal is in my hands, and it is already clear who is high and who is low.
Take the gold from the box and put it on your fingertips and caress it. "It's such a delicate and precious golden trivial, Concubine Jing has a heart. Changed to the Japanese palace to thank you. ”
"Where, when Concubine Jing recovers, she will definitely come over in person to give the imperial concubine safety." Mrs. Qi smiled skillfully, picked up the pre-rain tea on the side of the desk and put it to her lips and took a sip.
"By the way, you don't know yet, in fact, this Jin Zuo is what Concubine Jing is going to give her own child, but people are not as good as heaven, Concubine Jing was diagnosed some time ago and suffered from infertility, so ......"
I was slightly shocked in my heart, but I didn't answer her words on my face, I don't know what purpose she told me about it, so I smiled regretfully, "Such a precious gift, this palace is flattered." ”
But my mind was turning, and I was infertile...... I remember hearing Xinyue say not long ago that it was Xia Guifei who sent people to put saffron little by little in her diet, which led to this.
But the strangest thing is that the slave who suddenly ran out to confess his sins, why did he come out and admit it? If she didn't say it, no one would know that Concubine Jing's infertility was really man-made, wouldn't this be self-defeating?
"Imperial Princess?" Mrs. Qi raised her voice and called out to me, who had lost my mind.
"Sister Deng, let's call me Sister An in the future." Carefully put the golden lock in his hand back into the brocade box, "Sister Deng, do you know what happened in the court?" ”
Mrs. Qi's eyes flickered slightly, "The princess of the Rongwangfu hanged herself, the side concubine drowned, and the three leading figures in the court who belonged to the forces of the Rongwangfu were all assassinated. ”
I used a chuckle to hide the shock in my heart, overnight, Xiao Jincheng's methods were able to sweep away all the previous forces of the Queen Mother so quickly, it was really terrifying. I have to admire his political methods, he is indeed a strong emperor.
Mrs. Qi gently brushed the tassel in front of her forehead, and then played with the tea on the side of the case for a long time, "Now that Sister An is a favorite harem, what are you going to do next?" ”
"What does Concubine Jing mean?" I asked tentatively.
"Concubine Jing just wants to persuade the imperial concubine that the azaleas are blooming too brightly, which is not a good thing. It may not work to gather the power of one person, but if there are more people, it will become, why don't you want to find a way to cover its edge and wither it. ”
Soon Mrs. Qi had bid farewell to Zhaofeng Palace, and met with nearly twenty concubines in one day, I was already tired and exhausted, and I buried myself in the chaise longue and closed my eyes to rest.
The crescent moon was caressing and rubbing my temples with just the right amount of force. I sighed comfortably, silently reciting the names of Xia Yu and the outlying island behind him.
wants Xia Yu to fall, and the island will bear the brunt, but what should she do? She is not the author now, and the story will not be discovered as she thinks!
It turned out that Concubine Jing had always hated Xia Yu for this reason. It's not that easy to deal with outlying islands. Now that the power of the outlying islands is about to threaten the emperor's position, with Xiao Jincheng's temperament, he will never allow anyone to affect his imperial power.
But now I can't compete with such a powerful outlying island Xia family, so it's better to leave this matter to Xiao Jincheng to worry about. I believe that he has already had the heart of the Zhuxia family, and if there is an emperor who would allow the power of a courtier to prevail over the imperial power, Xiao Jincheng is also very worried now. I just entered the palace, and there is no one I can trust except for Xiao Jincheng, so I can't feel the ground, I have to cultivate my own power!
It can't be said that Xinyue is unfaithful, but once there is a conflict between me and Xiao Jincheng, they will definitely abandon me. How can I get revenge on Xia Yu and them?!
Suddenly, the rubbing on my forehead and the strokes were suddenly gone, and I was not comfortable for a while, so I whispered, "New moon?" "For a long time, no one paid attention to me, I opened my eyes in confusion, and looked at the empty dormitory, what about people?
"Imperial Princess, let the minions serve you." A laughing voice came from behind me, and I immediately bounced off the chaise longue, only to be pressed back by him. "Tired today?"
"Yes." I met his eyes, "Why did you come here so early?" ”
He re-covered me with the sable mantle that had been scratched off my body, and then rubbed my temples for me with a gentle motion, "I miss you." ”
I stared at him blankly for a long time without speaking, and he asked strangely, "What's the matter, looking at me like this?" ”
Because you've never been so warm to me before, basically two sentences have changed!
I muttered to myself, but I didn't say it, after all, I had something to ask him for.
"I want to ......," I hesitated whether to speak, thought for a long time, and plucked up the courage to say, "On the day Xiao Yiran was buried, I wanted to go with me." ”
The movement in his hand froze, and his smile gradually faded, and he replied, "No! ”
Seeing his decisive answer, I couldn't help lowering my voice and pleading, "I know my request is unreasonable, but ...... Really want to go. ”
"You've been speaking for him for days, preserving him in front of me. Since when did he hold such an important place in your heart? More important than me? ”
Xiao Jincheng's tone was very annoyed, and the most important thing was that he had already started to call himself 'I', and I understood that he was angry, very angry.
As soon as he flicked his sleeves, he walked out of the dormitory, and I was startled and hurriedly rolled over from my chair and jumped up. Tightly tugging on his sleeve, "Jincheng, it's my fault." I won't mention him again in the future, don't be angry, okay? "I didn't expect him to react so violently.
He stood straight with his back to me and didn't look at me.
The anger may still not be extinguished, I thought for a moment and continued, "You know, he was my first friend, and he was more kind to me. Instead of repaying him, I hurt him. Now that he's gone, that's all I can do for him, if you don't like it, I won't mention him again, don't be angry. ”
I looked helpless, but I knew that I had to explain.
Gradually, his stiff shoulders relaxed, and he slowly turned to embrace me, "You always think about others, do you know how he used to treat you?" He drunk you and got important information out of your mouth, he secretly searched for the miracle doctor who changed your face among the people, and even asked you to hold a grudge against me before he died. "He knows everything, so he cares."
I let go of my worries and chuckled, "You're jealous." Actually, I was just friends with him, very good friends. Once, he sold me a favor, and I have always remembered this kindness. ”
"Where?" He looked curious.
I didn't answer with a light smile, but my position has already made it clear that if he doesn't let me go, then I owe Xiao Yiran for the rest of my life!
"I always can't do anything about you." Fingers touched my neck, a little cold and piercing, "You go to Yeluqi." ”
I looked up at him in astonishment, "What are you looking for him?" ”
"He is in charge of the Praetorian Guard, and he is the only one who can take you out of the palace." Tapping my forehead in remind.
"Really? You really said yes. I couldn't believe it and broke free from his arms, trying to find out the truth of this in his eyes, and a moment ago I was still angry and wanted to make me cramp. How can it be ...... in the next moment? It's that good.
He nodded very seriously, and then smiled evilly, "Do you know what all the civil and military officials are talking about?" They want me to have a baby sooner rather than later, so we're going to hurry. Then he picked me up by the waist and walked towards the bed.
Hey, why did I jump so much at once, I was already lightly put on the couch by him before I could relax, and then, without saying anything, he reached out to catch my button.
"Wait...... Wait a minute! I was a little shy and stopped him.
However, he still couldn't stop his movements.
Well, once and a hundred times, this time I hope he can be gentle and not like a hungry wolf......
