In the bedroom of Concubine Xi of Biyou Palace, a long table is placed in the middle of the room. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Concubine Xi and Nineteen sat opposite each other across the desk, and Ziyan half-knelt on the side of the desk. Nineteen lowered his head, like a child who has made a mistake and confessed his mistake to an adult, blushing, and muttered:

"Concubine Xi, I didn't break the vase on purpose, who would have thought that there would be a vase outside my window?"

Concubine Xi smiled and said: "That vase is a fine pottery, with nine colorful phoenixes painted on it, which is extremely precious, and it is said to be a gift from the Wei Kingdom, but I begged the king several times to give it to me." ”

Nineteen said dejectedly: "Then let my father punish me!"

Concubine Xi said in a dissatisfied tone: "What does it have to do with your father? This is what your father gave me, and the punishment should be my punishment." ”

Nineteen: "Then you will punish!"

"Hmph, do you think I don't dare?"

"No, you have to be punished for making mistakes. ”

"Okay, how to punish it, am I up to it?"

"Of course. ”

"You can't go back. ”

Nineteen looked at Concubine Xi's smiling face, and suddenly had a feeling of being deceived. However, having said this, how can she be embarrassed to repay the debt, and what kind of tricky and strange punishment will this young concubine have?

Concubine Xi seemed to see through Nineteen's worries, so she comforted him and said, "Don't worry, it won't really be punished, for you, this matter is easy to do." ”

Nineteen asked, "What should I do?"

Concubine Xi said: "You call me a mother." "Since that confession, Nineteen has not really recognized this young mother. For this reason, Concubine Xi has always been very distressed, and she is unwilling to use force against Nineteen. These days, Concubine Xi and Nineteen get along well, Nineteen goes to the big forest every day to practice qi, Concubine Xi originally wanted to accompany Nineteen to practice together, she really wanted to see what kind of magical power Nineteen practiced. However, the Chu palace system stipulates that without permission, the ladies and ladies of the palace are not allowed to go outside the palace walls without permission. Under Ziyan's resistance, Concubine Xi finally dispelled this idea. As for Nineteen's refusal to admit his mother, Ziyan proposed that the queen could be invited, presumably the nineteen others could not listen to the words, and the queen's words would definitely go to her heart. However, Concubine Xi resolutely opposed this proposal, she didn't want to use the strength of others to accomplish this important matter for herself. She has her way. She asked a worn-out vase to be placed under the window of Nineteen, and Concubine Xi expected that the nineteen children would often enter and exit through the window. Sure enough, the nineteenth was calculated, so there was a scene that just happened.

Nineteen looked at Concubine Xi, who was looking at him a little nervously, and was very conflicted in his heart. In fact, Nineteen did not contradict the matter of recognizing his mother. Of course, he knew that it was for his good that his father had found him an adoptive mother, and the master had repeatedly told him not to disobey his father, because he still had something very important to ask his father. However, for some reason, after seeing Concubine Xi, he couldn't shout the title of "mother" or "mother".

After holding it for a long time, Nineteen said to Concubine Xi: "Niangniang is not much older than me, why don't I call you Sister Xifei." ”

When Concubine Xi heard this, she turned her face and said unhappily: "The relationship between you and my mother and son has already been clearly issued, how can you change it indiscriminately?

Nineteen lowered his head, blushed, and said nothing.

Concubine Xi did not urge Nineteen, but looked at Nineteen with a somewhat playful gaze. Sister, that seems like a good idea. The fourteen-year-old woman recognized an eight-year-old child as her son, and it seemed awkward to get along. If it's a sister-brother relationship, it's naturally much easier. But not yet, how can she and him become sisters and brothers? Only when it is a mother-son relationship can we reasonably and legally maintain a family relationship, otherwise everything will come to naught. Moreover, the king has already issued an edict, so how can it be treated as a child's play? So how can we deal with the naivety and stubbornness of the nineteen? It seems that some expedient measures can be taken.

After a while, Concubine Xi said to Ziyan: "You go to the dining room, add a lotus seed soup to your lunch today, this thing is the most qi-replenishing." ”

Ziyan agreed, and then took a deep look at Concubine Xi before getting up and leaving. Of course, Ziyan knew that Concubine Xi was deliberately breaking her apart, and she really wanted to know what Concubine Xi was going to say to Nineteen, but Concubine Xi's reason for breaking her apart was very good, how could she refuse?

Looking at Ziyan's departing figure, a rich smile appeared on Concubine Xi's face, and she whispered to Nineteen:

"Little broken boy, it's not impossible for you to call me my sister, but you can only shout secretly when no one is around, and you still have to call your mother in front of everyone, do you understand?

Nineteen was first happy, and then depressed. When no one calls her sister, don't you have to shout the word "mother" when there are people? But Concubine Xi is extremely tolerant of him and very sincere, how can she be embarrassed to disobey her all the time?

Concubine Xi continued: "This is an exception, and it will definitely become a big joke if people know it." You owe me a great favor. ”

How can this concubine look even more scoundrel than herself? Nineteen sneered in his heart, but muttered in his mouth:

"I know, it's okay to call your mother in front of everyone, but it's not that I owe you a favor, it's that you owe me a favor. ”

Concubine Xi smiled, and a blush appeared on her face, making her more delicate now. Nineteen's answer made her very satisfied, and she couldn't help but take a pair of small hands from Nineteen, and said softly:

"Nineteen is really good today. We're a family, even if I owe you a favor. ”

Concubine Xi's hands are slender and white when they are a little older than nineteen, and nineteen's little hands are held, which feels so soft, smooth, comfortable, and warm. But after all, Nineteen was not very familiar with Concubine Xi, so he quietly withdrew his hand, hesitated, and then asked:

"Sister Xifei, can I ask you for something?"

Concubine Xi asked curiously, "What's the matter?"

Nineteen Dao: "I want to learn a magical footwork from my uncle, but my uncle can't enter the palace." Originally, my master asked me to consult with my father, and he wrote a letter to my father. But when I returned to the palace that day, I finally made my father unhappy, so I didn't mention it, can you help me ask my father for a favor and let my uncle enter the palace?"

Uncle Shi? That must be a man, let a strange man, and he is an unknown person from the rivers and lakes enter the palace, things don't seem simple. However, the sound of "sister" just now made Concubine Xi feel indescribable, unclear, and mixed with a hint of sweetness, and Concubine Xi felt that her relationship with Nineteen had become closer again. Therefore, Concubine Xi pondered for a moment, but still readily agreed:

"Okay, I'll go and ask the king in a moment. ”

"What's the matter with the widow?" an old man's voice sounded abruptly outside the door.

The two raised their heads and looked, and it turned out that the King of Chu had walked in at some point.
