Article 545
Yu Haoxuan chuckled, then lowered his head and kissed Qingyi's forehead, hugged her even tighter, and said in a low voice: "No, you saw that a famous maid in front of the palace went to find Qingyi, so I asked Gonggong Qin to stop her for questioning" Speaking, Yu Haoxuan looked down at the petite person in his arms, and said with a smile: "How does Qingyi plan to deal with this matter?" ”
Qingyi lay in Yu Haoxuan's arms, looked up at him staring at his handsome face, stretched out his hand to stroke his lower jaw, and said with a smile: "The emperor feels sorry for Concubine Xian?" As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to wrap his hand around the emperor's neck, and said coquettishly: "The law enforcement order of the harem is in the hands of the concubine, and the head of the four concubines is still there, although the concubine is the emperor's so-called favorite concubine, but she is only in the second rank, how can you answer the emperor's sentence 'how to deal with it'?" ”
Yu Haoxuan finally laughed, he patted Qingyi's body with all kinds of pity, picked her up, walked to the table full of meals, placed her on his lap, and said with a smile: "Qingyi is my wife, and she is the mother of all the little princes and princesses of the Heavenly Empire in the future, how can she not have the right to care about that group of 'idle people'?" As he spoke, he took Qingyi's hand, looked at Qingyi's clear eyes seriously, and said, "Qingyi, you are my wife, so as long as anyone who steps into this palace, they must listen to you."
Qingyi looked at Yu Haoxuan's deep but firm eyes, his heart moved, and his hand was against his chest, a little, some of his face was slightly red, but his lips were kissed by the emperor
Concubine De angrily smashed the fruit plate given by the emperor to Concubine Xian in the 'Mercy Palace', which swept the entire palace like the wind overnight, and even the ministers of the early morning court discussed it one after another, and some people even said that as soon as the lord of Leng came, the county lord was arrogant, so immoral, it must be instigated by someone behind it, if it was not for the backing, why did he enter the palace for half a year, and disturbed the harem at this time
As soon as this rumor came out, the courtiers had different opinions and thought about it, but they couldn't take the liberty of participating in it, after all, the 'Leng Xiao State' was the most powerful vassal state among the sixteen countries, and the legend said that there were millions of garrisons, which could be called 'lions', and its power could be seen. So when everyone couldn't argue, they could only put the blame on Concubine Shu, only saying that Concubine Shu, as the person who enforced the order, took the lead in destroying the law and discipline of the harem, and should be punished severely
So in the early morning of the same day, Concubine Shu was urgently invited back to the harem, not only scolded by the queen mother, but also fined Lu for three months and grounded for three days to set an example. So Concubine De was also fined together, and he was grounded for one month in the name of 'immorality' to warn all the concubines in the harem
After a few days of recuperation, and heard that Qingyi has an heir, the queen mother's condition has improved a lot, after punishing the concubine and the concubine, the queen mother once again announced that Zhao Qingyi went to the 'Kunning Palace' to meet, and went to the 'imperial study' to meet the hundred officials, in the name of 'Zhaorong has an heir', canonized Qingyi to be promoted, but because the four concubines were full, they discussed with the courtiers to follow the example of Emperor Zong before the first emperor, and changed Qingyi's title to the imperial concubine who was "crowned with the name of the queen, but did not have the power of the queen".
The title of the imperial concubine, in the order of the harem of the Heavenly Dynasty has never been, only Emperor Zong was about to ascend to the throne, but was killed by the adulterous concubine Rong Qin after the death of the immortal, in order to commemorate the virtue in front of him, and posthumously as the 'imperial concubine', buried in the name of the queen Fengling, the whole country mourned for three days, in order to comfort the soul
There is a precedent, and hundreds of courtiers did not dare to have many objections, so the emperor issued an edict on the same day, canonizing the Dusk Qingyi to be promoted to the 'imperial concubine' below the queen and above the four concubines, and posted the emperor's list, announcing to the world, and on the same day, the amnesty of the world was carried out, pardoning misdemeanors, postponing capital crimes, opening the treasury to allocate grain to the people, exempt from taxation, and pray for the emperor's heir
In the main hall of the Heart Palace, the lights are bright, the Duke of Qin holds the holy decree in his hand, and handed over the canonization and reward to Xiao Tong one by one, and in a short time, the entire dormitory is full of all kinds of rare treasures, jade, jade, pearls, gold, etc., and there are countless of them.
Xiao Tong looked at the jewels in the bright yellow brocade jade plate, his face was not happy but worried, and he couldn't help but wrinkle his eyebrows a little and said: "Father-in-law Qin, has the emperor rewarded the entire treasury to our young lady?" According to the rules of the palace, even if she is canonized as a queen, she will not receive such a heavy reward, let alone a famous and powerless 'imperial concubine'
Father-in-law Qin smiled, as if he was in a very happy mood, he handed the holy decree in his hand to Xiao Tong, and said in a low voice: "What the little master said is that these precious jade vessels are all carefully selected by the servants with six imperial maids under the emperor's instructions", as he spoke, the smile on his face was even stronger, and he picked up a piece of something wrapped in a bright yellow silk handkerchief from the plate on the side, handed it to Xiao Tong, and said with a smile: "This is given by the emperor to the imperial concubine, saying that the imperial concubine lost it at the beginning, and now it is returned to the original owner"
"This is" Xiao Tong held the things in his hand, only to feel that it was expensive jewelry and the like, twisting his eyebrows and wanting to ask something, only to see that Qingyi had changed out of today's heavy coronation dress, and slowly walked out from behind the screen, she was busy stepping forward to help, handed over the items in her hand, and said with a smile: "Manager Qin said that this is the object that Niangniang once lost, and the emperor sent Father-in-law Qin to send it together with these rewards."
Qingyi glanced at the bright yellow silk handkerchief in Xiao Tong's hand a little tiredly, stretched out his hand to take it, and when he touched it, he already knew what was hidden inside, so he pursed his lips, smiled a little weakly, and said: "Everything here is withdrawn to the 'Health Palace', and if you should be rewarded, it will be arranged by Gonggong Qin."
The Qin Gong Guild smiled and said, "The slave obeys the order", and as he spoke, he asked the maid standing outside the palace to evacuate the jewels and jade in the hall
Qingyi walked back behind the screen, half-lying on the couch, reaching out to rub her forehead, closing her eyes tiredly, her pink lips opened lightly, and said softly: "What is the movement of Concubine Shu?" ”
Xiao Tong shook her head, the jade pendant on the hair bundle sounded, she took a few steps forward, reached out and rubbed Qingyi's forehead, and whispered: "The slave maid has already sent a letter to Zhao Chuan and Li Rong, asking them to pay attention to the movement of the 'Protector Mansion', but when I inquired about the news back, it only said that the second lady was upset and irritable, and insulted Miss several times You are a demon and a non-human, and nothing else"
Qingyi couldn't help but laugh a little when he heard this, and then sighed lightly: "Zhao Chuan is a smart person, although he still doesn't know that Shangguan Wan'er was framed by me, and he only wants to find an opportunity to assassinate Ouyang Hongyu, if he learns the truth one day, he will definitely come to take my life."
Xiao Tong's hand froze, and his expression suddenly became a little ugly, but he still said calmly: "Miss means that Zhao Chuan can't stay?" Today, Zhao Chuan has been reborn, not only has his martial arts increased greatly, but his mind has also deepened a lot, if he wants to get rid of him, I am afraid it will be difficult
Qingyi opened his eyes leisurely, looked at the golden splendor on the top beam of the main hall, and said with a light smile: "Zhao Chuan doesn't like money, just to love Shangguan Wan'er to clean himself into the palace, this indelible affection, presumably is why he can still endure humiliation when he is crippled, if Shangguan Wan'er hadn't died in the first place, perhaps, he wouldn't have lived to this day" His hands and feet are crippled, and he can still recover with great effort, not for revenge, but for what?
Xiao Tong was stunned, her eyes widened, she looked at Qingyi's calm and delicate face nervously, she couldn't help kneeling on the blanket, and said in a trembling voice: "Miss, it's the slave's fault, the slave shouldn't have spared his life because of Li Rong's plea, and now he has brought such a big threat to Miss, I" said, Xiao Tong's nose actually rose a trace of sourness, she covered her lips and bowed her head, not daring to say more.
Qingyi shook her head, opened her eyes to look at Xiao Tong's nervous expression and slightly reddened eyes, held her hand with some distress, and comforted softly: "The palace is deep and heavily guarded, even if he really has this heart of revenge, he has no ability to take revenge, Xiao Tong should be a benevolent and kind-hearted woman, but she has done so many bloody things for me as a master, I feel sorry for Xiao Tong", said, reached out to stroke the tears that fell from Xiao Tong's cheeks, and couldn't help but laugh: "Xiao Tong was also in the city with Concubine De when I lost my memory." Is there a lot of noise in front of Xuanwu Gate? How did you get to where you are today, but so vulnerable? ”
Xiao Tong stretched out his hand to wipe the tears on his face, and then covered his lips and said: "The slave doesn't want to cry, the slave just thinks that she is too useless, in the past, she has always relied on Miss, but now after three years, she still has to rely on Miss's tips to know how much mistake she has made."
Qingyi sighed, pinched the silk handkerchief to wipe the tears in Xiao Tong's eyes, patted her on the shoulder, chuckled the tip of her nose, and said with a smile: "Before, I was too stingy, I knew that you were loyal to me, but I was worried about the emperor's canonization of you as a royal maid, so I didn't blame you completely" said, Qingyi's heart rose again, Xiao Tong followed herself, has always been loyal, it is true, even if she really loves the God King, it is human nature, why should she be a soldier?
Thinking of this, Qingyi's heart has been relieved a lot, she glanced at the sky outside the window, smiled, and said: "Xiao Tong go to rest, it's almost the third watch" The third watch, and today the courtiers don't know when they will pester Yu Haoxuan
Xiao Tong hurriedly stopped crying, she looked at Qingyi a little jerky, as if she was surprised why Qingyi mentioned her and the emperor, just wanted to explain that the emperor had no intention of her, but she heard Qingyi shake her head slightly, pursed her lips and said: "Don't say anything, it's all over", it's all over, even if the emperor really had something with Xiao Tong, it is irreparable, why should she care, at least, she has made many women fall into hell, and it is natural for them to hate her
Xiao Tong was speechless, she could only bow her head, she said yes a little, then slowly got up, turned around and walked out of the dormitory after the third watch of the night, the cold wind was blowing, and the candle flame was swaying
On the bed, the tent silk fluttered, and Qingyi's green silk draped fell on the edge of the bed, late at night, just sleeping.
At the edge of the bed, a bright yellow figure stood for a long time, but as if he couldn't bear to disturb the beauty in his dreams, he just stared with his hand, a little, only to see the beauty's long eyelashes tremble, he hurriedly hooked up and sat down, stretched his hand to tuck the corner of the quilt, but Qingyi was extremely disobedient and poked his hand out of the quilt, put it on the white jade finger and grabbed the pillow, and fell asleep sideways
Yu Haoxuan chuckled, his eyes as deep as night were full of pampering, he stretched out his hand and held the jade hand that seemed to be deliberately escaping, and then lowered his head and left a kiss on her forehead.
Qingyi's long eyelashes were lightly fanned, as if she was a little reluctant to twist her eyebrows, her pink lips pursed aggrievedly, her hands moved, and then she opened her eyes full of wistfulness and clarity as if she was alarmed
"Qingyi woke up" Yu Haoxuan lay on her side beside Qingyi, her thin lips stared at her slightly stunned delicate face with an ambiguous smile, and before she was completely awake, she stepped forward again, stole a kiss on the pink lips, and chuckled in her ear and said: "Qingyi's appearance really makes me want to bully hard"
Qingyi came back to her senses, her face was suddenly covered with a layer of red, she wanted to turn around a little angrily, but the emperor propped his hands on her left and right sides, his handsome face had already leaned into her neck, and he said hoarsely: "Qingyi, today is our cave candle" Then, when Qingyi was slightly surprised, the cold lips kissed Qingyi's shoulder
Gasping, Qingyi reached out to his chest with some annoyance, looked at the black hair buried in his neck with displeasure, and said in a low voice: "It seems that the emperor has not been tired enough by those courtiers today, according to the opinion of the courtiers and concubines, it is better to review the notes piled up on the case together and then sleep."
Qingyi's words fell, he originally thought that the emperor would be angry, but he didn't want to hear his muffled laughter, suspicious, and just wanted to push him away, but saw him turn over and lie down, and then lifted the quilt to hug Qingyi's body, and said in a low voice: "I choose to sleep"
Qingyi was stunned, some didn't believe Yu Haoxuan's well-behaved today, so he turned around and wanted to find out what happened to him today, but he didn't want his body to move, and he was suppressed by the emperor, and then he saw Yu Haoxuan's eyes staring at his stunned eyes deeply, his slender fingers touched her cheeks, and his voice was extremely cold: "Qingyi, I am a man" and then when Qingyi was puzzled, he leaned into her ear and whispered: "If you move, I can't sleep"
"You" Qingyi blushed and squeezed out a sentence, then pushed his body away, and said angrily: "It's late at night, the emperor should sleep peacefully" As he spoke, he wrapped himself in a quilt and stiffened his body with his back to Yu Haoxuan
Yu Haoxuan looked at Qingyi's nervous expression, and couldn't help laughing, as if sweeping away all today's fatigue, he lay on the bed as he said, but he approached Qingyi very aggrievedly, and said in a low voice: "Qingyi, my husband is a little cold"
Qingyi closed his eyes, and didn't intend to ignore it, but snorted coldly as an answer, thinking that if it went on like this, he would inevitably entangle and play tricks, but he didn't want to listen to him: "Oh, then I'm frozen to death, anyway, Qingyi is already pregnant with the emperor's heir, and I won't take me in my eyes."
Qingyi opened her eyes, she didn't expect Yu Haoxuan to be so able to talk nonsense, she couldn't help but hide her lips and chuckle, but after a while, she still didn't plan to ignore him, but this time, it was a long time before she felt that the bedding on her body was slightly ripped off by someone, and then a cold body came in, with a heavy sigh The man muttered: "Little thing without conscience" said, but he hugged her into his arms and fell asleep
