The road of the Imperial Garden is winding, and every bouquet of flowers hangs its head under the scorching sun, and the curly and wilting flowers and leaves seem to have lost the water they rely on for survival, tormenting under the sun, and the wind blows, only to shake their bodies to look at the people who pass by.

There was a short distance between Shen Qingjiao and Xiao Qi, behind them were Chen Fu and Honeysuckle, and then behind them were the palace people holding high the emperor's honor guard, dragging a long team, and it was difficult to attract people's attention.

Sullen and with a warm breath swept in, there were faint dark clouds in the distance pressing the crossing, and the current clear sky was playing with each other, and there was a faintly moist smell in the dry air that set off strange waves, but between Xiao Qi and Shen Qingjiao, there was only silence.

Xiao Qi glanced at Shen Qingjiao, she walked all the way, as if she had no desire to speak and no intention of talking, just following him, like a shadow following him, but Xiao Qi knew that Shen Qingjiao's unwavering face was probably a rebellious heart, and she didn't want to stammer with him like the rest of the concubines and curry favor with him.

Xiao Qi can turn Shen Qingjiao into a nobleman, but he can't control her thoughts and control her true psychology, she is a nobleman, but she is also Shen Qingjiao herself, Xiao Qi used a means to turn Shen Qingjiao into a caged bird, but he also knew that pressing too hard would backfire, but he was not in a hurry, and rushing to achieve was the ultimate reason for failure.

Xiao Qi turned around casually and said slowly: "The letter from Ji County has been delivered." I haven't opened it yet, thinking that you must be the first to know, so I put it on the Bogu shelf of the Qinzheng Palace, this time I came back with the letter, and the people I stayed in Ji County, do you want to see it? ”

Shen Qingjiao's eyes flashed with surprise first, and then stunned, Xiao Qi's flat tone was more like hot oil to her, and after struggling in her heart, she said steadily: "The people who stayed in Ji County? Did the saint withdraw all the people from Ji County? ”

Xiao Qi sneered, narrowed the distance between them slightly, and looked into Shen Qingjiao's shocked gaze: "Do I look like a person who has no word to believe?" Or have you always been suspicious of me in your heart? Think I'm deceiving you while quietly withdrawing from the staff? ” 𝙈.𝙫🅾𝘿🆃🆆.🄲𝕆𝙈

"It's not..."Shen Qingjiao stiffened her body, the embarrassment left after being pierced flashed, she seemed to explode the barbs all over her body, and in the face of Xiao Qi approaching step by step, she chose to temporarily soften her temperament and said: "Of course, the words spoken by the saint are difficult to chase after the horse, and the concubine is speechless." ”

"You say it soundingly, but only you know what you think in your heart." Xiao Qi lowered the corners of his eyes, swept Shen Qingjiao's tightly clenched fist, and continued to walk forward: "The people of Ji County will not evacuate, the premise is that one day you will ask for the evacuation of my people, and I will evacuate." The person who came back with the letter this time was requested by me. What is written on paper is not as good as what you hear with your ears, of course, hearing can also be false, and seeing is really believing. Whether you want to see it or not is up to you. ”

"See you concubine." Shen Qingjiao followed Xiao Qi step by step, seeing Xiao Qi's pace getting faster and faster, and her voice gradually blurred, and finally only the words 'do you want to see' pulled her mind, Shen Qingjiao lost her sense of proportion, grabbed Xiao Qi's sleeve, and made up her mind.

Not far away, the wind and rain were irresistible, and where the dark clouds passed, in addition to the gray color of the sky, all that remained was the traces left by the wind slapping the surface of the lake and the movement of the wind's remnants blowing the clothes of Shen Qingjiao and Xiao Qi.

Xiao Qi's hand under the sleeve moved silently, and when Shen Qingjiao did not come back to his senses, he firmly held her hand: "It's going to rain soon, go to Ci'an Hall first, and talk about the affairs of Ji County." ”

Shen Qingjiao was stunned and stopped talking, and followed Xiao Qi in a hurry.

Only then did he enter the inner hall door of the Ci'an Palace, after saluting and greeting, the rain that had accumulated for a morning tore open the clear sky, and it fell majestically, and the sound of the rain hitting the eaves gradually covered up the noisy cicada sound, and the raindrops were connected in a line and quickly turned into a rain curtain.

The raindrops of the size of the sieve beans fell straight down, in the lotus pond in front of the east hall, a few miles of red carp hid under the green lotus leaves, gurgling and spitting bubbles, the heavy rain seemed to chase the footsteps of people, several small palace maids rushed into the corridor with pots of jasmine in their arms, but the sky blue palace clothes still could not escape the catastrophe, wet with a little dust, scattered frost soon came out, waving to drive the corridor.

Shen Qingjiao entered the palace gate of Ci'an Palace, and then pulled himself out of Xiao Qi's hand, and at this moment, with the queen sitting at the bottom, there was a ruyi pattern ice tank far away from Xiao Qi, and the ice in the ice tank had already turned into a puddle of cold water, which could clearly reflect the situation in the palace than the ordinary bronze mirror.

Although Shen Qingjiao lowered her head, a pair of eyes gently fell on the ice tank, clearly taking into account the expressions of several people in the hall, and the heat conveyed by Xiao Qi's generous palm was still held by her fingertips, but now, up and down, the unbridgeable gap between the two was the class that Shen Qingjiao could not cross from beginning to end, she slowly let go of the hand that was holding the long-handled fan, as if in this way, she could keep her awake and self-aware.

Shen Qingjiao didn't know the word Ji County, just like a fisherman
