It has been more than ten days since Xiao Qi last went to Chonghua Palace, during this period, Shen Qingjiao was pregnant, and Yaohua Palace occupied a few more times, and Xiao Qi did not set foot in other palaces.

Jiang Guifei grinded pearls into powder mixed with flower water to cover her face, when Xiao Qi arrived, she hurriedly unloaded, rarely appeared in front of Xiao Qi with a plain face, she showed a little embarrassment, and took the bamboo bone thin fan on weekdays to cover her face, which caused Xiao Qi to ask: "What's wrong?" Covering your face in broad daylight? ”

"Back to the saint, the concubine has been afraid of a rash on her face because of too much pollen in the spring these days, and she has never brought makeup. Jiang Guifei shyly stretched out her hand to enter the hall with Xiao Qi, and her uncovered eyes were full of gentleness.

Xiao Qi said disappreciatively: "I haven't seen you before, take it away." ”

Jiang Guifei still wanted to insist, the next moment, the thin fan in front of her had already been waved away by Xiao Qi, she suddenly raised her eyes, and the surprise that flashed in Xiao Qi's eyes happened to be included in her eyes, Jiang Guifei's face turned pale, and she hurriedly grabbed the fan and said: "The saint should let the concubine cover it, the concubine is getting older, and it is not as good as the young concubine." ”

This time, Xiao Qi didn't insist anymore, and said as if comforting Concubine Jiang Guifei: "You have been in the palace for a long time, why do you care so much about your appearance?" It's just that there is a little more fine line at the corner of the eye, and it is not tight. I waited and asked someone to send you pearl powder to use, but it didn't work? ”

Jiang Guifei's fingertips holding the handle of the fan were slightly white, and the bitterness in her heart was like eating a yellow lotus, Xiao Qi didn't seem to care about her aging appearance, but the next moment she said that she would reward her with pearl powder, isn't this just duplicity? But Jiang Guifei still needed to swallow this mouthful of bitter water, and said with a smile: "Then the concubine is grateful to the saint, and I don't know why the saint came today?" ”

"It's not a big deal." Xiao Qi took the tea sent over, took a sip and said: "It has been three years since the death of the first emperor, and the autumn election that was stopped before is probably going to be held normally this year, and now that the queen is pregnant, the big and small affairs in the palace are properly handled by you and the concubine, so I want to discuss with you." ”

"Autumn Selection." Jiang Guifei pressed the tip of her tongue against her front jaw, desperately trying not to lose control: "It is enough for the saint to keep filial piety for the first emperor for three years." Since there are the rules of the autumn election ahead, it is time to prepare, there are so many sisters in the palace, presumably the saint is tired of seeing it, it is also good to have new faces and younger concubines enter the palace earlier. ” 𝙈.🆅🄾𝙙𝙩𝙒.ℂ🄾🅼

Jiang Guifei unconsciously lowered the fan in her hand in a panic as she spoke, but Xiao Qilang laughed loudly: "What you said sounds sour, and it makes me feel really uncomfortable when I hear it." In fact, I don't want to choose the autumn election, but there are ministers in Zhongchen who have mentioned it many times, saying that if it is peaceful today, the three-year filial piety period has passed, but the fact that the heirs under my knees are thin will become criticized by the people. ”

"These ministers will say something unpleasant, saying that the heirs of the Holy Lord are thin, and the good concubine will not raise the first emperor of the Holy Lord under her knees? And Ji Zhaoyi is also pregnant, and even the queen's mother is almost three months pregnant. Jiang Guifei didn't care about her lack of powder at the moment, and personally added tea to Xiao Qi: "In this way, the minister just wants to rely on his daughter to enter the palace to fight for grace, so as to make his official fortune prosperous." ”

Xiao Qi glanced at Jiang Guifei faintly, and said in a deep voice: "Who said it wasn't?" I can't accept it when I talk about my heirs! But what they said is right, I can't keep filial piety for another three years because of the first emperor, right? ”

Xiao Qi sighed, he was really helpless.

Jiang Guifei's heart jumped, remembering what Liyun said yesterday, she looked at Xiao Qi with a tired face, kneaded her eyebrows, and tried her best to endure the sourness in her heart and said: "The saint is also tired for such a thing, why don't you go to the Zhaoyi Palace to sit down?" Ji Zhaoyi is more than four months pregnant, and if she wants to have the child in her womb, she can move, so she will go up and take a look, and don't keep thinking about these troubles. ”

"Really?" Xiao Qi opened his eyes and looked at Jiang Guifei, and then said with a wry smile: "I forgot, when our children don't have it, they can already toss in your belly, right?" Counting the time, if the child was born safely, he would be able to walk and run by now. ”

The sourness in Xiao Qi's eyes didn't look like a disguise, he rarely mentioned the unborn child to Jiang Guifei, but just a few words at this moment made Jiang Guifei's heart rise a heart-rending pain, which seemed to break a person's heart, crumple it, and sprinkle it in the wind.

Jiang Guifei couldn't tell for a moment whether her face was sweating down because of hatred, or the tears in her eyes that she couldn't hold back, obviously the spring flowers were blooming outside the palace, but she seemed to be in the cold winter wax moon, and the hatred for the murderer who killed her child made everything in front of Jiang Guifei become blurry, she fastened the desk, the long armor was broken due to force, and the nail flesh was separated, and the red blood was fainted on the celadon floor tiles drop by drop.

When Xiao Qi left, Jiang Guifei didn't remember, she only remembered that she had instructed Li Yun: "You have more contact with the scattered frost of the Ci'an Hall and the Mo Chun beside the queen, don't miss the news." ”

When Xiao Qi stepped into Yaohua Palace, there was a pink cherry tree in the courtyard, and the petals were like pink rain, strolling quickly or slowly along the wind spread the entire courtyard, and the white palace dress of the beautiful woman sleeping on the chaise longue under the tree was decorated with colorful flowers. The soft smoky veil was only hooked by the fingertips
