Chapter 15: Youth
When Xiao Qi said this, some teeth itched, he flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly, suddenly recalling the unbearable thing back then.
Chen Fu didn't know why, but when he saw Xiao Qi Tieqing's face and obviously undulating jaw, he immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing, and he couldn't wait to slap himself.
Chen Fu followed Xiao Qi carefully, and he didn't dare to come out, but his eyes couldn't stop looking at Xiao Qi's stiff back, and the corners of his mouth seemed to be pulled up desperately, and it was difficult for him not to laugh.
If you want to say that Chen Fu remembered this matter, it was really some years.
Back then, Xiao Qi was about to be canonized as the prince, and the palace lady pressed down on the candidate for the main concubine, focusing on choosing a side concubine, a concubine, and even a concubine for him first. Xiao Qi didn't care about this, and blindly took care of it all by the palace lady.
But one day, the palace lady suddenly summoned him before the king, and asked with a smile: "There is a special favorite candidate in my heart, if there is, take this opportunity to canonize him as a side concubine or a concubine." β
Xiao Qi heard this, and really thought about it seriously, and then only told the palace lady to wait for a day or two.
Xiao Qi didn't know what he thought, and when he left the palace that day, he asked the eunuch who was accompanying him to summon Shen Qinghe to meet him in a remote corner of the imperial garden.
In order to avoid suspicion, Xiao Qi waited for her to make a stick of incense, and Shen Qinghe was late.
Xiao Qi was young and vigorous at that time, and thought that as long as he said it, Shen Qinghe would definitely be the result of his promise, so he asked frankly without thinking about it: "I am about to be canonized as a prince, are you willing to follow me out of the palace?" β π’.ππΎπΏπ π¦.πππ Ό
Xiao Qi still remembers Shen Qinghe's original reaction, she first had a pair of dull eyes, which were suspicious and ignorant that were rarely seen under the usual calmness, and then frowned slightly and tilted her head, the ignorance in her eyes gradually turned into surprise, and then, Shen Qinghe suddenly asked: "Do you want to be a servant girl in the palace?" β
Xiao Qi blinked, he didn't mean that!
"Who wants you to be a handmaid?! Is there a shortage of your handmaiden in the palace? Xiao Qi's face turned red all of a sudden, and he bared his teeth and said, "To be a palace maid or a concubine, which do you think is better?" β
Xiao Qi asked this sentence, and he still hasn't forgotten the answer he gets.
"The slave maid thinks it's good to be a palace maid. The slave waits for the old age to leave the palace. β
In a word, Shen Qinghe went from a slightly red face to a depressed expression at the end, and then to a pale face, and Xiao Qi, who was standing opposite her, from the initial expectation to the last heart falling straight down uncontrollably, everything was destined.
Xiao Qi is the prince and the pride of the sky, it is enough to be able to pull his face once, he does not allow his young affection to be let down and allow himself to think about Shen Qinghe again and again.
So in the following days, Xiao Qi rejected the kindness of the lady in the palace, and was depressed for a long time, and during this period of time, Shen Qinghe also avoided Xiao Qi a little, between them, Xiao Qi only thought that he was holding a breath, and Shen Qinghe why, he thought, maybe it was his own words that scared her, or perhaps, she was really ruthless to him.
Xiao Qi's teeth were a little sore, he pulled out his thoughts from the long memories, and then asked Chen Fu behind him, "You said that Shen Qinghe has a lame younger brother?" Why can't I remember that her brother was lame? β
"It seems to have been lame later." Chen Fu thought about it.
"Really?" Xiao Qi's tone was slightly suspicious, and he stroked the Bogu frame carved with a fine dragon pattern with his hand, and then changed his words: "What did Shen Qinghe do with the palace maid next to the queen, you went to inquire and told me." β
"Yes." Chen Fu bowed and said.
The young idea of ignorance and affection can't compete with the passage of time after all, although Xiao Qi asked Shen Qinghe that sentence was sincere at the beginning, but now that he looks back and thinks about it, Xiao Qi himself can't be sure whether it is the result of impulse or careful consideration. Is he just looking for a familiar person to live with, or does he really like Shen Qinghe.
Like?
Xiao Qi is the emperor, and countless concubines in the three palaces and six courtyards are waiting for him to be pampered, what else do you like? If you have lived in the palace for a long time, you will know that feelings are the most unacceptable, and the same is true for concubines and emperors.
If you have it, you have a weakness.
Xiao Qi sat sideways against the hundred-panel window in front of the Qinzheng Palace, a thin ray of light poured down through the green bamboo gauze paper, passing by a little dust in the thin air, and finally fell to the ground, his eyes stared at one of the square bricks without blinking, and his expression showed a bit of incomprehensible fatigue, as if he was in this afternoon after going back in time, and returned to the corner of the imperial garden that made him angry and embarrassed.
The breeze blows the girl's green silk, blows the hem of the girl's clothes, and carries the unique warm fragrance of the girl's body, surrounding the boy's body, and the golden light of the sunset reflects the girl's cheeks like the gorgeous glow in the sky.
And Xiao Qi was like an outsider, looking at them looking at each other, watching the young man ask the sentence again: "To be a palace maid or a concubine, which do you think is better?" β
If he could really turn back time, would he still ask this sentence? Or is it to prevent yourself from asking this sentence?
Xiao Qi's gaze turned from blank to deep, he is no longer in the age of a weak crown, such an assumption is useless for him now, he should think a little deeper.
