Chapter 204: Idle Things
". Why did Concubine Shu come here? Dai Man was shocked. Hurriedly asked.
Su Jingxi got up. Hooked the corners of his mouth. "How does this palace know. It's just that since it's here. Hongu is always not easy to see. Hurry up and wait for the main palace to change clothes. ”
Since she entered the palace. It's been three years now. But the number of times Concubine Shu Guifei stepped into Guanju Palace was the same as the number of times she stepped into Chonghua Palace. You can definitely count on one hand.
Something went wrong. There are not necessarily demons. Cow ghost snake god. See it, you know.
Wait to change your clothes. After redressing. It's been a cup of tea. Su Jingxi slowly walked out of the inner room. Stand and salute. "The concubine asks Shu Guifei to say goodbye."
Qiao Jingshu sat on the top. Hearing the movement, he looked away. There was no change in his eyes. Hurriedly said. "Sister, please get up."
"Xie Niangniang." Su Jingxi got up. Walk to the other side and take a seat. "The concubine didn't know that Niangniang came over at this time. It took a bit of effort to make up. I've been waiting for a long time. I also hope that the mother will forgive her sins. ”
Even Su Jingxi could guess the purpose of her coming. But polite words are still inevitable.
Qiao Jingshu shook her head. He smiled lightly. "If it's true. That's also because Hongu didn't greet you beforehand. I came uninvited. What sin do you have? ”
The corners of Su Jingxi's mouth rose. "The mother is a rare guest. And the status is noble. Today, I can have the interest to come to the Guan Ju Palace of the concubines. The concubine should have greeted her in person. ”
Qiao Jingshu picked up the teacup. Quietly glanced at the face of the person opposite. Young and beautiful as always. Long time no see. Beauty never shows signs of declining. Eye-catching. That's her. There are also some self-ashamed defilements.
The world always praises her for her blue heart. Talent and appearance are unique. But at this time. But no one mentioned it again. Circumstances change with the passage of time. People have not left, but the tea is cold.
The years are truly unbeatable.
"I've heard that you're pregnant. I thought I'd come and see for myself. I haven't seen my sister for a long time. But there are two points missing. If you disturb your sister. I hope my sister won't be surprised. ”
"What did the mother say. The concubine is because she is pregnant. It was a few days ago that I couldn't go and kneel for the Queen Mother. It really shouldn't be. Thanks to the mother's left and right dots and thoughtfulness. Su Jingxi stood up. Blessed body. "The concubine has thanked Niangniang here."
Although Su Jingxi doesn't like to be honest with others. If someone else comes to the palace. I was able to send it away in three or two sentences. But if this person is Concubine Shu. She couldn't treat each other like that.
One way or another. She always thought about Concubine Shu's help at the beginning. Even if there was no Shu Guifei at that time. She was able to get through that hurdle. But there will inevitably be more ups and downs. More tribulation.
is to thank Concubine Shu for never being embarrassed by her. This love. Su Jingxi must also bear it.
Qiao Jingshu gave a hand. He said with a smile. "My sister doesn't have to be like this. The main palace is just acting at the emperor's behest. What is done is not enough. Able to help his sister preserve the heir in the womb. It is the duty of this palace. ”
In this house. Those who can conceive for the second time. Except for the deceased Concubine Yu. She herself has never been born with two children who have opened her eyes. This is the one in front of you.
It's not that Qiao Jingshu doesn't know how the palace people see herself. It's just that she doesn't care.
Su Jingxi replaced herself. became the first person in the harem of the favored crown. She had been mentally prepared for this. And always has been. It is even secretly promoting its development. Just because she lives. Never for myself.
"Anyway. The concubine also wants to thank the mother. Su Jingxi sat down. Go on. "The mother's original help. The fulfillment after that. Asylum today. Pile by pile. One by one. The concubines are all kept in mind. ”
Qiao Jingshu was stunned. Immediately relieved. "It's always been. We all know that you are very smart. It is because he is in the midst of so many people. You alone have been chosen. If only I could do it all over again. Hongu will still do that. Because Hongu doesn't want to regret it in the future. ”
The meaning of the words. Actually, it's not hard to understand. It was not only Su Jingxi who was chosen. It is also Qiao's family.
Su Jingxi took a deep breath. "Since Niangniang has chosen a concubine. Then presumably Niangniang also pays a lot of attention to her concubines. You should know what your concubines are. There was a pause. Fu said again. "Concubines never like to meddle. I know why. ”
Qiao Jingshu thought for a moment. Shook his head. She doesn't like to worry about things that don't concern her. Naturally, it can't be because she's lazy. After all, many things just need her to tell you casually. It's not because she doesn't have a good heart. It can be seen in the matter of the eldest princess.
"Because the concubines don't like to do things that the emperor doesn't like." Su Jingxi looked away. Look into the distance. The sound is ethereal. But every word comes from the bottom of my heart.
This sentence was enough to make Qiao Jingshu discouraged. Many of the previous words pale in comparison. It is futile to persuade too much.
Qiao Jingshu was a little stunned. A few moments later. before he spoke. "It's Hongu who thinks it's too simple. Today, this palace is considered to have disturbed my sister. Now that there is nothing to do. The main palace will return to Chonghua Palace first. ”
Su Jingxi got up with her. Speak before she takes a step. "Concubines know that their abilities are limited. But I am willing to do my best to be thoughtful for my mother. But if the time comes, it will still be useless. Niangniang can't blame the concubine. ”
Qiao Jingshu retracted the step she was about to take. Somewhat puzzled to look back. Road. "Can you tell us why this is?"
Obviously, the previous refusal was complete and obscure. But this time again, such a promise was made. It's a bit unbelievable.
Su Jingxi hooked the corners of her mouth. Said lightly. "The concubine's personality must have been clear to the mother. Then the mother should also know that the concubine attaches the most importance to blood and family affection. It is because the mother did not persuade her parents today. I didn't save the heart of use. The concubine should also help the mother. ”
"And the concubine has only been in the palace for three years. But I heard about the deeds of the mother very early. Niangniang was able to enter the prince's mansion for the family. For the next ten years, he lived for his family. This open-mindedness. This innocence of heart. The concubines were very admirable. ”
Qiao Jingshu didn't seem to expect her to say this. I can't help but feel a little shaken. More than a decade later. What she did didn't think was great. It's just with that love in my heart.
Ignoring her obstruction. Qiao Jingshu blessed her body. Road. "Regardless of the ultimate success or failure. Regardless of the outcome. This palace will remember your help today. ”
Su Jingxi nodded. Didn't say anything more.
For Qiao Jingshu. Be able to say these words solemnly. It represents her sincerity and sincerity.
After sending off Concubine Shu. Both Tingyao and Dai Man wanted to dissuade her. But I thought of a lot of words. After all, I didn't dare to speak. Even if the mouth is opened. You don't have to think about it to know that it should be useless.
……
When Zong Zhengjin walked in. And he saw her lying alone on the couch. Close your eyes. Recuperate. Secretly shook his head.
Sit next to her. Not surprisingly, she immediately opened her eyes.
"Why did the emperor come here at this time?" Su Jingxi was a little surprised. It stands to reason that he should delay it for more than half an hour at the earliest.
Qiao Jingshu came to Guan Ju Palace before. Naturally, the time was carefully chosen. It's not just the time he won't be in the harem. But it will be left for nearly an hour or so after that. Avoid suspicion with others.
Zong Zhengjin snorted coldly. Turn your eyes away. Don't look at her anymore. "I'm going to come later. Waiting for you to be ready. ”
Su Jingxi could naturally hear from these few words that he was in a very bad mood. I can't help but feel a little apprehensive.
He was right. She was lying on the couch. Branch up to listen to Yao and others. Think carefully about how to talk to him about it. was able to quietly exempt him from the Qiao family's guilt. And it can make him not really angry even if he notices it afterwards.
I just didn't expect him to come so quickly. She was quite caught off guard.
You can't pretend to be stupid at the moment. Apparently he already knew it. You can't cheat. I'm afraid it will attract even more anger.
Zong Zhengjin waited for a moment. But I didn't hear her reply. Reluctantly, he put his gaze back on her. I saw her two thin eyebrows tightly twisted. Apparently struggling to figure out what to do.
I can't help but feel a little funny. But she remembered what she promised Concubine Shu. The smile disappeared suddenly.
"Concubines are not well prepared, no matter how prepared they are." Su Jingxi did not get up. Instead, he reached out and gently pinched his sleeve. Staring at the dark lines on it. "The concubine never wanted to do anything that made the emperor unhappy. But in this matter. The concubine may not be able to keep her promise. ”
……
"Concubines never like to meddle. I know why. ”
"Because the concubines don't like to do things that the emperor doesn't like."
……
These two sentences were reported by the Dark Guard. But he kept it firmly in his heart. I won't forget it for a long time.
When he first entered the court. Framed. Ordered Xiaofuzi to carry out the "empty city plan" without authorization. Knowing that this move would make him unhappy. But he still came stupidly to confess and explain to him.
She is who she is. She is full of satisfaction that it is his.
"You're for someone else. You will not be able to keep your promises. Zong Zhengjin finally turned his gaze. Said coldly.
Su Jingxi raised her head and glanced at him. Fu lowered his head again. "Not for her. The concubine just thought she was quite pitiful. Life or death. are all calculating for their parents and brothers. Never thought about myself. Compared to her. The concubine felt that what she was doing was not good at all. ”
She was half-lying on the couch. He sat upright on one side. From his point of view. It is not easy to see the emotion in her eyes. All you can see is the long eyelashes like butterfly wings. Shell teeth are faint. The lips are closed one by one. The voice sounded a little muffled.
In fact, her mind is not difficult to guess at all. Although people are smart enough. But in front of him. But there was never a concealment. All emotions are on the face. He could see it at a glance.
"In my heart. You're doing a great job. ”
