Chapter 159: Frightened... (Ask for subscription)
Xu Boqing heard Zhou Guifei say that she wanted to come in, and she also raised her eyebrows, and then seemed to think of something interesting, and a smile appeared on her cheeks...
Seeing that the Queen Mother subconsciously wanted to refuse Zhou Guifei, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to interrupt, and then leaned into the ear of the beautiful woman in his arms and whispered: "Do you want to play something exciting?" ”
"Huh?"
Empress Dowager Chen was shocked, seeing that he had a smile on his face, as if she realized something, but asked uncertainly: "You... What do you want? ”
"Let Zhou Guifei come in..."
Xu Boqing pointed to a layer of petals floating on the pond, and said with a sly smile: "I'm hiding underwater." ”
Rao is Empress Dowager Chen was a little prepared, and when she heard him say this, she was also frightened and hurriedly shook her head, and subconsciously refused: "No, it will be discovered." ”
"It's okay~"
Xu Boqing pecked her on the lips, and said softly and comfortingly: "My current cultivation is okay to stay underwater for a day, as long as she doesn't enter the pool, it is impossible to find me." ”
“……”
When Empress Dowager Chen heard him say this with such certainty, somehow, there was a faint expectation in her heart, but reason told her that she couldn't do such a thing.
She hurriedly shook her head and said as if begging for mercy: "No, it will be miserable if it is discovered." ”
"Rest assured~"
Xu Boqing saw that the Queen Mother was distracted for a moment, and then her cheeks were hot and she refused, and she also understood what she was worried about...
With a casual move, he stuffed his clothes into the box in the corner and hid them, and then simulated the voice of the Queen Mother, and said to the outside world: "Come in~"
After that, he smiled at the anxious Queen Mother, and then sank down and dived into the water...
"You... Don't make a fuss......"
Empress Dowager Chen originally wanted to say something, but when she heard the sound of the door being pushed open, her heart tightened, and she quickly shut up and didn't say much...
She nervously looked at the surrounding bath and hot springs, and could clearly feel that the frequency of her heart was beating several minutes faster...
Seeing that there was a layer of petals floating on the pond, I couldn't see anyone under the water even when I soaked in the bath, so I secretly breathed a sigh of relief...
Immediately, I didn't know what I felt, my body stiffened again, and my cheeks were faintly hot...
"It's freezing outside..."
Zhou Guifei pushed the door in, and saw that the room was full of fog, and the good sister was soaking in the soup spring alone, so she chuckled and said: "It's still warm here for my sister~"
"Uh-huh..."
The first time Empress Dowager Chen encountered this kind of thing, her body was stiff and she didn't dare to move, she was a little flustered in her heart, and she could only use her nasal pronunciation to pronounce two sounds in response...
Zhou Guifei raised her eyebrows, seeing that the queen mother's reaction was a little strange, she thought that this sister was doing something interesting and was disturbed by herself...
She smiled slightly, and said in a teasing tone: "Did the concubine disturb my sister?" ”
"No... Nope..."
Mrs. Chen's cheeks were hot, and she knew what she meant by "disturbed", and hurriedly denied that she had not done that kind of thing.
"Sister, isn't it outside?"
Zhou Guifei was worried about how to further pull in the relationship, and seeing the queen mother's reluctance to admit it, she became more and more convinced of her guess.
Her eyes moved slightly, and she smiled narrowly: "There are no outsiders here, and my sister is still shy." ”
Empress Dowager Chen's cheeks turned crimson, and she said sneeringly: "Sister, don't misunderstand, mourn... There really isn't a mourning family. ”
"Okay, good, no, no~"
Zhou Guifei responded with a smile, and then said as if persuading: "The first emperor left early, my sister has been in this Cining Palace for eighteen years, and some needs are normal...
It's not a big deal...
To put it mildly, don't talk about my sister in this matter, that is, the concubine and some little sisters who are not favored by His Majesty often need Mr. to relieve their worries. ”
Empress Dowager Chen: "......"
Xu Boqing: "......"
Zhou Guifei sighed rather sadly, and said to herself: "Everyone in the world knows that the court is good, but who knows the suffering of the people in the court." ”
“……”
If it was before, Empress Dowager Chen could still have some empathy with her; But now, especially at this moment,
I really can't empathize...
How can you have that thief incense!?
"My sister is serious..."
Empress Dowager Chen snorted lightly, wanting to push away the thieves who were making trouble in the water, but she was afraid that the movement would be too big and would be seen by Concubine Zhou, so she twisted and puffed the topic and said, "What is the matter with my sister?" ”
"It's not a big deal..."
Zhou Guifei sighed and explained: "Today, Jing'er set up a banquet for the first birthday of the emperor's grandson, and the concubine also helped Jing'er hand over the invitation to Lord Xu a few days ago...
Sister, you should also know that the crown prince was suspected of rebellion and was deposed by His Majesty as the prince, and now the position of the prince is vacant, and Jing'er intends to fight for it.
This would have been a good thing.
But he is young, impulsive and reckless, and the concubines are worried about him...
Lord Xu's invitation was handed over by the concubine, and he was able to take time out of his busy schedule to attend the banquet, even the concubine felt that there was light on his face. ”
She paused for a moment, and then said with some shame: "But the rebel son of the concubine's net worth pretended to be clever and killed Lord Xu in public, and wanted to use some small means to divide the two factories and one guard."
Even the concubine can see the small means, how can Lord Xu not see it?
This back and forth annoyed Lord Xu.
After the concubine saw Lord Xu leave the table angrily, she chased after her to make amends, but although the concubine was Jing'er's mother, she was just a woman after all, and it was difficult to get on the stage...
Lord Xu is resentful in his heart, and the concubine can understand it...
At that time, the concubine thought that after the banquet, she would come to Cining Palace to explain to her sister, so that she could make amends to Lord Xu in person.
I never thought that His Majesty would go out of the palace for a banquet, so the concubine was in King Jing's Mansion until the evening, and as soon as she returned to the palace, she hurried to explain to her sister..."
"The emperor has left the palace for a banquet?"
Empress Dowager Chen was slightly stunned, she could understand the rest, but she really didn't expect that the emperor, who didn't even leave the palace to attend the wedding of the two princes, would actually go out of the palace to attend the banquet on the first birthday of the emperor's grandson.
"Yes, the concubine didn't expect His Majesty to go to the banquet~"
Zhou Guifei said meaningfully: "Not long after Lord Xu left the table, His Majesty arrived, and the courtiers who attended the banquet at that time were all in a daze...
Later, His Majesty not only sat in the position of Lord Xu, but also praised Lord Xu in public as the pillar of the Great Liang, which was quite high. ”
"Uh-huh..."
Empress Dowager Chen hummed softly in her nasal voice.
I don't know what I thought, or what I sensed, I just feel that my thoughts are a little far away...
Seeing this, Zhou Guifei was a little strange and asked, "Why do you feel that my sister is very comfortable?" ”
"Ahh Have it? ”
Empress Dowager Chen's heart tightened when she heard this, and she explained in a slightly flustered manner: "This... It's cold, and it's very comfortable to soak in a hot spring and warm your body..."
"It's true..."
Zhou Guifei thought about it and felt that it made sense, so she opened the curtain and walked in, and said with a smile: "The concubine has been away for a day, and she has just returned to the palace and hasn't had time to bathe, why don't you borrow this sister's soup spring to drive away the cold?" ”
"No!
”
When Empress Dowager Chen saw her approaching the bath, and even had the intention of bathing together, she subconsciously screamed...
Immediately realized that his reaction was too aggressive, but it would be more suspicious, so he explained: "It's not that I am stingy and don't let my sister take a bath with me...
It's just that the mourning family has been soaking for a long time, and the soup in this bath is almost cold, and if my sister wants to use this bath, she has to let the next person change the soup again. ”
After that, the thief who kicked through the water with her jade feet and made a mess immediately twisted and pinched her body, trying not to stick to the petals...
"That's just as well."
Zhou Guifei saw that there was some truth in what the Queen Mother said, so she nodded and answered, and then asked, "Why are my sister's cheeks so rosy?" ”
"There's... Have it? ”
Empress Dowager Chen touched her cheeks, she was indeed a little hot, thinking of the strange appearance just now, she explained: "It may be that I have been soaking in the soup for a long time, and it will be fine later..."
After that, I carefully stepped out of the bath, wrapped myself in a bath towel, and wiped the moisture on my body...
Seeing this, Zhou Guifei stepped forward to help, she looked around, and asked a little puzzled: "Sister is bathing here, why don't you have a grandma to call?" ”
"The mourning family wants to be alone and quiet..."
"That concubine still disturbs my sister..."
"Nothing..."
Empress Dowager Chen secretly thought that she was indeed disturbed, but... It's not bad to be disturbed... Well... It's pretty good.
Seeing that Zhou Guifei was intimately helping her with clothes, she pretended to be calm and said: "It will take some time for the next person to change the soup, why don't you go to the dormitory with the mourning family to rest for a while?" ”
"When the concubine is ready, she will go back to Yongning Palace directly, and she will bother my sister's subordinates to do something..."
"It's also ......"
After the Empress Dowager Chen got dressed, her face was like a scarlet glow, and after chatting, she took Zhou Guifei to the dormitory...
Just as they walked out of the room, a few bubbles bubbled out of the hot spring in the bath, and then Xu Boqing surfaced with a petal in his mouth...
"Tut-tut... It's delicious, I have to taste it~"
