"Look, miss, this mouth has not been closed in the morning. Now it's finally satisfying? Lingxi joked on the side.

Qi Zhao pursed his lips and chuckled, his face shy, and he blushed and ignored the spirit rhino next to him.

Lingxi sneered and stopped laughing at Qizhao.

The noon sun shines warmly on the red window of the Xianglan Palace, Lingxi picks up Qizhao's hair with his fingertips, and the peach, bamboo and wood comb leans on the hair and flows down, leaving a touch of rose fragrance on the head, and the beauty eyebrows are like the appearance of a newlywed little woman.

Lingxi looked at Qi Zhao with joy, although he was still worried about the future life in this palace, but seeing Qi Zhao so happy, he also thought that it would be okay.

After all, everyone has their own destiny, and some people are destined to be women in this palace, destined to have a man with power in the world to take care of her life.

"By the way, miss, Lingxi heard last night that Princess Qinghe was thrown into a dry well." Lingxi said while helping Qizhao fix his hair.

"Qinghe? Princess Qinghe of Baoguo? ”

"Yes, this Zhou dynasty has an ancestral system, and when the new king ascends the throne, he has to select beauties from all over the world to enter the palace, and then screen and fill the harem layer by layer. And the source of these beauties is mostly the princesses of the princes and kings of various princes, or the women of important ministers of the court, and some talented and beautiful women selected from the common people. Lingxi said to himself, and Qizhao couldn't help frowning slightly.

"I see." Qi Zhao's voice weakened, and Lingxi realized that there was something wrong with his words, after all, he had just Cheng Huan, and Qi Zhao felt a little awkward in his heart.

"Miss, I'm sorry, it's Lingxi who lost his words." Lingxi stopped what he was doing and stepped aside and said.

Qi Zhao turned around, took Lingxi's hand and said, "It's okay, I've been mentally prepared for this, you don't have to shy away from it." Let's say, why did Princess Qinghe appear in the Zhou Palace? ”

Lingxi nodded, and continued to speak for the Qizhao hairpin: "That King Bao has lost the hearts of the people since the last time he was in the Stone Horn Country. In addition, the king kept putting pressure on King Bao and dispatching troops, looking at it, it seemed that he wanted to take this opportunity to recover the Kingdom of Bao. In this way, the king of praise naturally sent this useless princess to the palace of King Zhou, if she was lucky enough to be favored, it would be fine. If it is not favored, the marriage will be stopped. will not affect the overall situation because of the value of this princess. ”

When Qi Zhao heard this, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "I thought that this king loved this daughter so much, but now he has abandoned her like a shoe, it's really sad and lamentable." ”

Qi Zhao was somewhat sympathetic to Princess Qinghe.

"Since ancient times, kings have been so affectionate, for the sake of power and supremacy, what about a favored daughter, not to give up?"

Lingxi is like that, there always seems to be an endless amount of worry and worry in his heart.

However, she also knew that Lingxi had endured in Situ's mansion for so many years, suffered so many years of humiliation, and many years of compromise, so that she had these worries that were not similar to her age.

Although she has a new appearance now, the scar on her heart is still hideous, although her face is clear, her mind is as devastated as a vicissitudes of life.

Qi Zhao was always distressed when he saw Lingxi's appearance, but he couldn't persuade him.

"Miss, I also heard that the second lady of the Shen family, Shen Yiqing, was in her bedroom last night and accidentally walked into the water. Fortunately, another beauty rescued her, and she escaped, and in the morning, the doctor went to see her, prescribed several medicines, and woke up until noon, it seemed that she was injured. Lingxi continued.

"Second Miss?" Qizhao asked.

"Yes, she is the half-sister of the queen, she is the daughter of the Shen family, but I heard that Shen Xiangye seems to love this daughter even more, and even surpasses the queen." Lingxi laughed as she spoke, as if the queen had become the person they should be dealing with.

"Niangniang, the father-in-law of Chengde from the Internal Affairs Office has come with a will." A little maid stepped forward to report, and whispered to Qizhao to kneel and bow to the king's will.

Chengde's father-in-law swayed sideways, and stepped into the Xianglan Hall with square steps.

"But Bao Niangniang?" Chengde's father-in-law asked in a sharp voice.

"No—"

"The king has a will, Queen Shen's life touches the stars, and the blood invades the moon, which is really a bad omen, so I am afraid that it will hurt the dragon's body. From now on, the queen will live in the Afang Palace and will not go out, and the affairs of the six palaces will be handed over to Princess Bao. Chin this. Qi Zhao's mind sank, frowned, pursed his lips and was silent.

Chengde smiled flatteringly and helped Qizhao up and said, "Niangniang, please get up." Hey, hey, now Niangniang is the person who governs the harem, if there is anything to use the old slave, the old slave will work for the mother. ”

Qizhao nodded politely.

Chengde stepped forward in a whisper and said, "Niangniang, according to the law, you should go to the Queen Mother to say goodbye today." Then Chengde gave a look, took another half step back and said goodbye to Qizhao: "The old slave retired." ”

After speaking, he left the Xianglan Hall with his hands, and took a large number of palace maids and eunuchs to convey the king's will to other palaces.

Lingxi helped Qi Zhao to get up, the surprised expression on her face couldn't retreat for a long time, she saw Chengde leave far away, so she turned around and asked Qi Zhao, who was in a daze: "Miss, this king really abolished the queen?" He...... Does he really want to make you queen? ”

Qi Zhao knew in his heart that this must not be Gong Sheng's idea, but this government and the opposition were already the dominant Shen family, and what ability could make this woman who had finally won the position of queen fall overnight? Qizhao couldn't figure it out.

She shook her head and said to Lingxi, "I don't know. However, I don't think this must have been the work of the king, and I don't know why. That's it, just now the palace people reminded me to go to the Queen Mother to say goodbye, but there is this courtesy? ”

Lingxi patted his head and said to Qi Zhao: "No, look at me." memorized the palace rules for a night, and actually forgot the most important thing, really. ”

Qi Zhao looked at Lingxi's stupid appearance, and for a moment felt that she was just a young lady who was older than her.

"Alright, let's go."

"No-...... coming"

Lingxi followed Qi Zhao, slowly walking on the jade road of the Zhou Palace, and the palace people came and went in an endless stream, and they bowed when they saw Qi Zhao.

Seeing this, Qi Zhao wanted to help, but he was stopped by Lingxi, and whispered in her ear: "Miss, you can't help them, if you help them, you will harm them, and even the palace people together will be punished." ”

When Qi Zhao heard this, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and accept the bow of the palace people on the narrow corridor at the corner.

At this moment, a gilded sedan chair came to a distant stop, and a beauty came out with her head bowed inside, only to see that the beauty was dressed in a gorgeous dress, wearing a golden begonia and shaking, the beads were shining, and a plush cloak looked more like the owner of this palace than Qizhao.
