Dongfang Mingyue had no choice but to retreat in defeat, at this time, Ge Longjia, who had been waiting for a long time, stood up again: "Your Majesty the Emperor, Nanyan's talented woman is really talented, so Nan Zhao has to admire, we originally prepared a talented girl, and wanted to compete with Nanyan, but now it seems that our talented women are almost only worthy of serving Nanyan's talented women, only one girl may be able to barely reach the toes of Nanyan's talented girl, and now I hope to be able to dedicate her to His Majesty the Emperor of Nanyan, I wonder if you will be disgusted? ”

Qi Jingzhi frowned without a trace, compared with the faceless of Dongyue and Xiliao, Nanzhao seems to be too well-behaved, judging from the information obtained recently, Nanzhao is far more obedient than what he sees on the surface, and it is even possible to collude with Xiliao, but in the case of Western Liao and Dongyue are antipathetic, Nanzhao is so soft, it is a little unreasonable, right? obviously prepared talented girls, but didn't let them compete with Nanyan, but instead wanted to offer a girl?

Vigilance is vigilance, this kind of thing Qi Jingzhi is not easy to shirk, this kind of thing is not without precedent for foreign people to offer girls in the previous dynasty, and the girls who are generally offered are all nobles, have a good upbringing, and their appearance is also very beautiful, although it is presented as a gift, but in fact it is no different from kissing, accept it, it's a big deal to put it in the harem as a vase, and it's not that you can't afford it.

Therefore, Qi Jingzhi smiled indifferently: "Since the eldest prince has such good intentions, I can't shirk it, right?" ”

Ge Longjia smiled heartily: "Haha, good! Thank you to His Majesty the Emperor for your love, Nanzhao and honor! Come on, call Princess Baozhu to come forward! ”

With this sound, a girl dressed in a pine-colored folded branch pattern halo brocade skirt, holding a shawl, and covering her face with a red veil walked up in the company of two Nanzhao maids, and when she walked to the center of the banquet, the girl gave a blessing according to Nanyan's etiquette: "Baozhu has seen His Majesty the Emperor." ”

Ge Long took a sip of a glass of wine, and his fingers nimbly fiddled with the wine glass and smiled: "This is the third daughter of the uncle, the father's daughter, the title is Princess Baozhu, the name is Ge Shiluo, Baozhu, take off the veil." ”

Princess Baozhu replied in a low voice, reached out and took off the red veil on her head, and after seeing the face of this Princess Baozhu, almost all of Nanyan's faces stiffened, and Qi Jingzhi looked particularly embarrassed.

I saw that this princess Baozhu had bright eyebrows, high nose and cherry lips, and a little beauty, but just under Qi Jingzhi, there was also an almost identical girl sitting, these two girls are very similar in age and eyebrows, the only difference is that the girl sitting on the top has a little more cinnabar mole in the center of her eyebrows-

This jewel princess actually looks like a begonia flower carved out of a mold!

Ye Tanghua stiffened and looked at the princess of the jewel below, and then at Qi Jingzhi, how awkward she thought. Qi Jingzhi is very familiar with her, but Nanzhao just offered such a princess who had to be accepted, and was embarrassed to accept it, if Qi Jingzhi did not accept her into the harem, it would be easy to cause conflicts with Nanzhao, but if the princess of the treasure bead was included in the harem...... Isn't it awkward for him to look at?

Ye Tanghua looked over like this, just as Qi Jingyi looked at him with an embarrassed face, the eyes of the two of them immediately moved away, and the awkwardness in his heart deepened.

Fortunately, Qi Jingzhi hadn't forgotten that there was still a princess of Baozhu standing below, and he smiled reluctantly: "Okay, Princess Baozhu will live in Weiyang Building in the Luminous Garden, and she will move the palace after she is sealed in the future!" ”

Baozhu responded playfully, and followed the palace people down.

But anyone who knows what kind of place the Yeguang Yuan Weiyang Building is, can probably also understand Qi Jingzhi's tangled mood, this Weiyang Building has a total of five floors, and the decoration is also luxurious, it is a rare exquisitely decorated high-rise building in the Imperial Garden, but the focus of this sentence is not in the exquisitely decorated high-rise building, but in the Imperial Garden-

The concubine was supposed to live in the East and West Sixth Palaces, but Weiyang Tower was located in the imperial garden......

Pei Ying secretly glanced at Qi Jingzhi, and sighed slightly in her heart, she knew that the girl sent by Nanzhao was not like Ye Tanghua, but a man, for the sake of the overall situation, Qi Jingzhi also had to accept it, so she was not jealous, but she was worried about Qi Jingzhi, Princess Baozhu looked so much like Ye Tanghua, was it a coincidence or did Nanzhao intentionally? If it is a coincidence, how can there be such a coincidence in the world? How can two unrelated girls be born so similarly? But if it is said that Nanzhao did it on purpose, what is the point of Nanzhao doing this kind of thing? Just to see Qi Jingzhi embarrassed by the jewel that looks like his daughter-in-law? But this doesn't make sense, how will Nan Zhao know who she plans to choose as the crown princess?

……

I really couldn't figure it out, Pei Ying could only give up thinking about this, and instead held Qi Jingzhi's hand under the table. There is no way to share his worries, so I can only comfort him in this way......

Qi Jingzhi gently held Pei Ying's hand, and he didn't know what he thought, and the corners of his lips hooked up a faint smile.

The comparison has already been compared, the winners and losers are all in front of you, and it is not interesting to eat this meal again, as for the entanglement of interests between countries, it is after leaving the palace gate.

Under the auspices of Qi Jingzhi, this banquet ended in such a hurry, and when it ended, Ye Tanghua wanted to go home quickly, but before she could walk out of Chunfang Garden, she was stopped by Xiao Concubine's maid Tao'er: "Qingshang County Lord, please stay, my master has something to tell you." ”

Ye Tanghua had an alarm bell in her heart, although she was smiling on her face, her nerves were already tense: "It's getting late, it's really inconvenient for Qing Shang to stay for a long time, please forgive me, let's meet again." ”

"It's only been a few days, why is the county lord so unfamiliar, just in a hurry, why don't you even have time to say a word?" Just when Ye Tanghua shirked, Xiao Concubine had already led someone to come forward from behind, Ye Tanghua turned around and happened to take a look at Xiao Concubine, she could only smile bitterly: "The concubine master misunderstood, it's not that Qing Shang and the concubine master are estranged, but ......"

"It's never been close, right? The county lord is really, he didn't even tell the county lord of the concubine about the incense, which caused the concubine to get an axe and lose the adult! The county lord knew that this concubine was good at perfumery, why didn't he tell the truth? This concubine doesn't care about this, this time I will definitely pull the county lord to Chengqian Palace to discuss the issue of spices, let's fall in love with each other, we should also have a good discussion and chat a little gossip by the way, I am looking forward to the county lord being able to enter the palace every day, so that we can talk together, the county lord can still afford this concubine, don't shirk it......"

Concubine Xiao said and wanted to hold Ye Tanghua's hand, but her hand was intercepted halfway through, she looked over with some dissatisfaction, and was about to make an accusation, but found that it was Qi Jingzhi who stopped her, so she was so frightened that she hurriedly withdrew her hand: "Concubine see the emperor." ”

"Get up, what is this for? Hairy, you are now a person with a body, but you can't afford this, and now that the banquet is gone, why don't you go back and rest? Qi Jingzhi glanced at her, although there was a smile on his face, there was no warmth in his eyes.

"Thank you for the emperor's thoughtfulness, the concubine is planning to go back to the palace to rest, but I haven't seen the county lord for a long time, and I ......miss it very much."

"Qing Shang is outside the palace, if it is getting late today, she should be allowed to go home early, there is a fake one living in Weiyang Building now, you have to think about it too much, just go to Weiyang Building to go shopping." Qi Jingzhi interrupted Concubine Xiao's words without saying anything, and was about to send her back in a few words.

"But, but if it's getting late today, I'm afraid it's not safe for the county lord to go out of the palace alone, right? Why don't you go and rest with me......"

"Wouldn't it be later to go to your place for a while? As for the safety of Qingshang, you don't have to worry, I will personally send her out of the palace, instead of worrying about Qingshang, Concubine Xiao should pay more attention to the child! Qi Jingzhi glanced at her, and couldn't help but block all her words in his throat.

Concubine Xiao had no choice but to reluctantly bow and leave, Qi Jingzhi breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Ye Tanghua: "Why didn't you be careful, you let her get entangled?" You don't know who she is. ”

"I originally wanted to avoid it quickly, but I didn't expect it to be a step too late, thank you Your Majesty for the grace of relieving the siege, if I leave with her at this moment, I'm afraid that tomorrow, something will happen to me......" Following behind Qi Jingzhi, Ye Tanghua replied in a low voice while paying attention to whether there was a wall around her.

"If only you knew she had a problem...... It is indispensable to guard against people, and I was still a little worried about whether you would have a good relationship with Concubine Xiao, but now that I have watched this scene for a few days, I am relieved. Qi Jingyi led the way and said with a smile.

Ye Tanghua replied, and then raised her head again: "Then again, how did you know that Concubine Xiao had a problem, Your Majesty?" Concubine Xiao is now pregnant, and it's time for you to love her......"

Qi Jingzhi looked back at Ye Tanghua and smiled: "You girl...... If you are a concubine in the palace at the moment, this is no different from being jealous. ”

Ye Tanghua's face turned red, and she whispered a little embarrassed: "Qing Shang is just curious, and he doesn't have any messy thoughts......

"I know, just kidding you. Do you want to know why I think there is something wrong with Concubine Xiao? Actually, it's very simple......"

"What the hell is going on?" Ye Tanghua blinked and asked.

"The reason why I am suspicious of Concubine Xiao is because I have never believed her." Qi Jingzhi smiled slightly: "The daughter of Xiao Chuge of the Western Liao Hou Clan, why don't I guard against her and talk to her?" In this palace, Concubine Xiao's girl is likely to be the one who needs to be guarded against the most. ”

Ye Tanghua smiled reluctantly, not knowing whether to tell Qi Jingzhi that Xiao Chuge was a spy in Western Liao.
