Chapter 398: Superior Moves
When Zhao Zhen walked to Xiangluan Pavilion, there was no movement, and the waiter was startled, and was about to say goodbye, but he gently waved his hand to stop him.
The chamberlain bowed to the side.
Zhao Zhen walked in with his hands.
The light in the dormitory was very dim, the tent curtain hung lightly, and the two dim candle flames reflected Zhou Yiliu, who had carefully copied in front of the case.
She was slender and half like a woman who was seven months pregnant.
Zhao Zhen stepped forward slowly, his eyes swept over the light smoke on the bookcase.
"What are you copying?"
Zhou Yiliu was frightened, his hand shook, and the tip of the pen fell on the paper, painting a cloud of pitch black.
"Official?" She was surprised, hurriedly put the wolf on the pen stand, and hurriedly got up and saluted Zhao Zhen.
"Excuse me." Zhao Zhen held her, and personally helped the person to sit on the chair, and then picked up the "Dizang Sutra" that she copied, looked at it for a moment with a heavy gaze, and then put it back.
"You're religious."
Zhou Yiliu didn't dare to raise his head, holding his bulging abdomen with both hands, looking very humble.
"The concubine sincerely repents, respectfully asks for the great mercy and compassion of the King of the Bodhisattva, and is willing to use this merit to return to Empress Wencheng, may she leave the pain as soon as possible and go to the blissful death......"
"Copy the Tibetan scriptures, but worship Guanyin Bodhisattva." Zhao Zhen sat down slowly, and his eyes fell on a statue of Guanyin Buddha in the Buddha shrine on the case.
Zhou Yiliu smiled awkwardly and walked behind Zhao Zhen to pinch her shoulder.
"Thinking that it was about to give birth, the concubine had nightmares every day, dreaming that the child in her womb begged for help, and called her mother over and over again, saying that someone was trying to kill him...... The concubine is ignorant, and now she can't invite all the gods and Buddhas to Xiangluan Pavilion. โ
Zhao Zhen held her hand, "I've wronged you these days." โ
Zhou Yiliu's eyelashes trembled slightly, she didn't raise her head, her voice became lower and lower, and she was humble and humble, "As long as you can give birth to a little prince for the official family and keep the dragon vein for the Great Song Dynasty, don't say that if you are wronged, you want the life of the concubine, and the concubine is willing." โ
"You're a man with a heart."
Zhao Zhen stared at her for a moment, patted the back of her hand, rolled his eyes, and wrinkled his brows thoughtfully.
"What incense is burning in your house? The taste is very unique. โ
Zhou Yiliu glanced at him, "It's an ordinary goose pear fragrance, with plum and green peppers." If it is said to be unique, it is probably because the concubine made it with her heart. โ
Zhao Zhen nodded: "Not bad, the fragrance is chic." โ
"The official family has never smelled any good fragrance, and the concubine is ashamed." Zhou Yiliu said, taking the incense tongs and carefully fiddling with the incense pieces in the stove in order to let it exude the strongest fragrance.
Zhao Zhen looked at her side face, her expression was soft, the whole person was soft and gentle, this is a woman who is different from Zhang Xueyi, she is like having no bones, but she can let him rub it round and flatten, just to survive......
Zhao Zhen was distracted for a moment.
When he came over today, he wanted to care about Zhou Yiliu's belly, but at this moment, looking at her pitiful and soft appearance with her body, he unconsciously softened.
"Alas!" With a sigh, Zhao Zhen patted his knees and stood up, "Don't copy the scriptures anymore, don't get tired." I received your heart for Wen Cheng. โ
Zhou Yiliu looked at him innocently.
"You should have rested earlier." Zhao Zhen looked away from her and looked away, "I'm gone." โ
"Official ......"
Zhou Yiliu put down the incense tongs, suddenly pounced, hugged Zhao Zhen's arm tightly with both hands, put his head on his shoulder, and said with tears in his eyes:
"Would you like to stay with your concubine a little longer? Just ...... in a moment."
Zhao Zhen frowned, and was about to refuse, but she suddenly burst into tears.
"The concubine was disturbed by nightmares and had difficulty sleeping. The imperial physician said that this was caused by the inability of the gods to keep it, the lack of yang energy, and the susceptibility to external evils. The official family is the Son of Heaven, the body of the true dragon, and with the official family, Xiangluan Pavilion must have a rebound of yang energy...... Ask the official family, for the sake of Lin'er in the womb, is it okay to stay with the concubine? โ
Zhao Zhen looked at her flustered and timid appearance, and his heart was slightly sour.
He sighed, patted Zhou Yiliu's arm, and held the person in the crook of his arm.
"Don't be afraid. I'm here. โ
Zhao Zhen didn't have a good night's sleep these days, thinking that he was so sleepy, he was lying on Zhou Yiliu's bed, his eyelids were closed, he wanted to take a nap and leave, but he fell asleep quickly.
The incense was secluded, and the hall was silent.
I don't know how long it took, Zhou Yiliu got up from the tent, put on a piece of clothing and slowly walked to the table where the Bodhisattva was enshrined, folded his hands, closed his eyes and prayed sincerely.
This Buddha statue was sent by Bai Xiaosheng to the military patrol shop in Chunxu Lane.
There was also a box of incense inside, and a reply letter.
Bai Xiaosheng told her that if anyone could guarantee a man in one fell swoop, it would definitely be a liar. However, although it is not credible to have a man in one fell swoop, it is definitely okay to have a few more children.
This was originally a nonsense sentence that was said and not said, but Zhou Yiliu realized the essence of the words from the master - how can I have more children? The answer, of course, is to envelop the emperor's heart.
As long as there is an opportunity to sleep, sooner or later they will give birth to a son.
Even if you can't give birth to a son, just look at Zhang Xue and you will know that the emperor's favor is better than everything.
She had to climb up, to trample under the feet those who had looked down on her in the past, to make her relatives who had turned a blind eye to what had happened to their family wag their tails and beg for mercy on her.
Especially Fu Jiuqu and Zhao Yuqing, she wanted them to kowtow in front of her, and call them a thousand years old.
ยท
When the first rays of sunlight in the morning fell on Xiangluan Pavilion, Zhao Zhen woke up faintly.
"What time is it?"
Li Fu lowered his head and approached respectfully.
"It's time to go back to the official's house."
Zhao Zhen rubbed his temples and woke up the memory of last night, and found that he slept refreshed, the whole person felt a lot more comfortable, and the depression in his heart seemed to have dissipated.
He sighed, "Why didn't you call me earlier?" โ
"The official family doesn't need to go to court today, Mrs. Zhou said to let the official family sleep a little longer."
Zhou Yiliu happened to come in, holding the golden basin for washing, lowered her eyes when she heard the words, and said very carelessly: "The concubine saw that the official's face was not good, and she thought that she hadn't slept well recently, so she made her own decision and asked the official family to punish her......"
Zhao Zhen glared at Li Fu, then smiled and sighed.
"What sin is there for the sake of my body? However, you should not do any of this manial work in the future. You are not a subordinate, and you are still pregnant with my imperial heir, how can you work in person? โ
After that, he snorted and called Li Fu.
"Why don't you come over to change my clothes?"
These days, Zhao Zhen will incense Zhang Xue every morning and dusk, and there is no omission. He overslept today and missed the time of incense, he didn't want to criticize Zhou Yiliu, but when he looked at Li Fu, his face was still a little stinky.
Li Fu glanced at him cautiously.
"Official, the king of Guangling County has been waiting, waiting outside the palace, for more than an hour......"
Zhao Zhen's face stinked a little more.
ยท
From the day he was discontinued, Fu Jiuqu thought of a way to find a sense of existence in front of Zhao Zhen, with one purpose - to marry him and Xiangguo's daughter as soon as possible.
Zhao Zhen sometimes suspected that this person was deliberately angry with himself.
He had just died of his favorite, and he couldn't wait to marry his beloved......
"You have a lot of skills, and you actually chased you to Xiangluan Pavilion?" Zhao Zhen walked out with his hands in his hands, and saw Fu Jiuqu standing in the courtyard under the morning sun with a refreshing body, young, handsome, Zhilan Yushu, peerless elegance, and his heart was inexplicably bored.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
The corners of Fu Jiuqu's lips were slightly hooked, revealing a faint smile, and he saluted Zhao Zhen.
"Ask the official family for marriage."
Zhao Zhen knew what he was coming for, snorted and shook his sleeves, and strode ahead.
"The funeral has just been done in the palace, and I'll talk about it in a few days."
"Official, this marriage can't be delayed, if it drags on any longer, it will kill the ......"
Fu Jiuqu followed with a smile, his handsome face in the sun seemed to be plated with a halo, naturally exuding a soul-seducing charm.
Zhou Yiliu stood behind the window, watching the man's tall back farther and farther away through the window paper, his palms clenched slightly, revealing a sneer.
"Xiuqin, prepare pen and paper."
Xiuqin looked at her inexplicably hideous expression, and her heart tightened.
"Lady, the official family said that I won't let you copy the scriptures again, for fear that you will be tired and ...... yourself."
Zhou Yiliu stroked her lower abdomen and smiled treacherously.
"I will send a letter to Mr. Bai and give him a honorarium."
Xiuqin frowned: "Does the lady really believe him?" โ
Zhou Yiliu smiled, "There is news from Kunning Hall that Mrs. Cao entered the palace today to give good news to the saint, and Miss Cao has it." That Miss Cao was so ugly and disdainful, so she invited Mr. Bai to help, and she managed a wild horse-like Cai Xiaohou to be obedient, and she didn't go to the flower building, she didn't drink the flower wine, and she didn't listen to the opera in the Goolan tiles, and she surrounded ......Miss Cao all day long.
She turned her head slowly, "You say, this kind of peerless master, how can I be slow?" โ
