Concubine, she rises step by step

Chapter 35 You Can Still Escape

Jingren Palace.

Zizhi collected the charcoal fire, added a few pieces of silver thread charcoal, and made the fire vigorous.

Ai Xiang gently squeezed the queen's shoulders, and said softly: "Your Majesty, I heard that I went to Shoukang Palace very early in the morning to give the Empress Dowager Empress New Year's Eve costumes, but was stopped by Sister Mei Fen."

Perhaps it was because of the charcoal fire in winter, the queen was always a little tired, she opened her eyes and asked, "Not allowed in?"

Ai Xiang paused for two seconds, then replied: "I heard that Sister Meifen asked her to leave her things behind, but no one was allowed in."

The slightly bright pupils in the empress's eyes darkened by two points, and she said weakly: "It seems that my aunt can't beat the emperor."

Ai Xiang was puzzled, and said: "Didn't the Queen Mother not let her in?"

The queen glanced at Ai Xiang and explained: "My aunt has always been one-sided. If she doesn't say anything, would Sister Mei Fen dare to let the goodness keep things? This is to leave a step for the emperor."

Ai Xiang suddenly said: "It turns out that this is the case, the queen empress can understand."

The empress seemed to give up, "It's not that I can understand it, it's that I understand my aunt's temperament too well."

"According to the girl Shengyi's style of doing things, the next one is probably Jingren Palace." Ai Xiang likes Shengyi very much, and there is a bit of appreciation in her words.

The queen agreed: "I don't refute what you say, this is her style."

As soon as the words were finished, Eunuch Xiao opened the curtain to pass the message, "I want to report to the Empress, Sheng Shang Palace to see you."

The queen and Ai Xiang looked at each other, and the queen said leisurely: "I really said that Cao Cao is here."

"Let her in." The queen adjusted her posture.

Entering the room with good intentions, fearing that the queen would be overwhelmed by the cold, she deliberately stopped for a while, grilled her hands and skirt with charcoal fire, and then raised her foot to enter.

"I am honored to see the Empress Empress, I wish my empress good fortune and peace." said with good intentions.

The queen raised her hand, "Get up."

Seeing that the queen is in good condition, Shengyi breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, empress."

"The New Year's Eve is approaching, and this servant specially selected some high-quality clothes and accessories to present to the empress. I hope the empress will like it." She nodded kindly and lowered her eyebrows.

The queen naturally understood the kindness, and signaled Ai Xiang to accept it, "You have a heart."

Gratitude said gratefully: "Under the heavy pressure that day, the empress has always believed in the slaves and spoke up for the slaves everywhere. This is an extremely precious heart, and I dare not forget my kindness until death. If it is not for the protection of the empress, the empress will not be where she is today. After all, it is the empress who is kind and righteous."

The queen has always been worried about her failure to protect her that day. She didn't expect her good intentions to be indifferent, and she only remembered the words of protection she said, "I believe in your character, but people in the palace are complicated. Even if I believe in you, it is impossible for me to protect you every time. In the end, I still have to rely on myself."

Sheng Yi knelt deeply, bowed a big gift to the empress, and said in a daze: "This servant is grateful for the trust of the empress, and will definitely live up to the empress's heart."

The empress, who was quite touched, smiled and said to her, "I think it's time to implement the palace rules you mentioned before."

Seeing the burning gaze in the Empress Empress' eyes, Sheng Yi's heart skipped a beat. It turned out that the Empress Empress still remembered, so she didn't just talk about it on a whim.

The queen said faintly: "It was not implemented at the beginning, and it was really not the right time. Today, Concubine Lan is confined to Yuxiu Palace for several days, and General Chang will return to the court soon, but because of Concubine Lan's fault, Concubine Lan will turn a blind eye to it. At least, Concubine Lan will not make things difficult for you in a short period of time. The other concubines are nothing to worry about."

I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse, but this time is actually an opportunity.Kindness is really dumbfounding.

The kindness is also in this matter, and I understand one thing better. Don’t think that your boss is incompetent. To be the boss must have her strengths, or take the overall situation into consideration, have a long-term vision, or have a grand plan, or hold back. In short, she must have strengths that you can learn from.

"This servant is willing to obey the Queen's orders." Sheng Yi sincerely admired her.

The queen seems to be more open-minded, and Sheng Yi always feels that she has changed a little bit...

After returning to Zhengxin Hall, Shengyi heard a piece of news.

The queen has proposed to the emperor to keep Peilin under her knees.

Looking at Huo Jiheng's expression kindly, he couldn't guess his thoughts for a while.

Taking advantage of the break, he kindly handed Huo Jiheng a cup of hot drink. The weather was slightly cold, and the surrounding area was icy. Facing the warmth from his hands, he really wanted to stay a little longer, so he held the cup, and happened to take a break.

"I heard that the Empress is going to adopt Pei Lin?" Sheng Yi asked suspiciously.

Huo Jiheng said "hmm", "What do you think?"

This question is level.

From the bottom of my heart, the only one who is really suitable to guide children is the queen.But she is a queen after all, she can't decide whether she really raised Peilin.

"If Pei Lin is willing to follow the empress, that would be great..." Sheng Yi said lightly.

Huo Jiheng smiled slightly, "You clever ghost!"

Huo Jiheng's kindness is right to praise her.

"Has everything been delivered?" Huo Jiheng raised his head and asked her.

In fact, there is no need to say kindly whether to send him off or not. The people around him must have told him the first time. However, the emperor wants to hear her say it himself. This is very important.

Graciously warmed Huo Jiheng's temples with warm hands, and the voice slowly passed over Huo Jiheng's head, "The Queen Mother didn't see the slaves, so it was Sister Meifen who took the things; the Empress not only accepted the things, but also encouraged the slaves to keep their original intentions; at the Empress Lan, Miss Kunshuang said that she was unwell and it was inconvenient to see guests, so she also took it for her."

Probably because he was afraid that the emperor felt that he had missed someone, he added: "Ning Chang is there, and the servant gave the brocade handkerchief in private, as a token of appreciation, but the servant thought not to be too ostentatious, so as not to cause trouble for Ning Chang, so I gave it privately."

Huo Jiheng closed his eyes and seemed very satisfied, "You don't have to worry about it, Empress Dowager, I will go there in two days and everything will be fine. As for Concubine Lan, there is nothing wrong with Kunshuang. Kunshuang is Concubine Lan's dowry maid, so it is reasonable. Before, because old lady Chang was talking about Kunshuang, she was allowed to go back to serve for half a year. Now, General Chang returned home and sent Kunshuang back."

Only then did Shengyi understand why Kunshuang was able to call the shots in Yuxiu Palace.

"The most important thing I want to thank is you, the emperor. If it weren't for you, I am afraid that I would have been kicked out a long time ago." The words were soft and gentle.

Huo Jiheng tilted his head back slightly, opened his eyes, and saw the kindness directly above his head.

As their noses met, there was an undercurrent of affection in the eyes of the two of them.

"Then how do you thank me?" Huo Jiheng's voice was full of magnetism, and the hearts of those who listened were itchy.

After all, Sheng Yi didn't dare to take that step, and went out as if fleeing.

Huo Jiheng raised his brows slightly and raised the corners of his mouth slightly as he watched the kindness of hurrying, thinking to himself, girl, can you still escape?
