The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 1091 The Intentions Are Sinister (7)
"Since it's your promise, I believe you can keep it. Wanyi, I've wronged you. My brother didn't do anything for you all these years, but I want you to pay back this emotional debt for me. I'm really ashamed and don't know what to say. What's good." He was very pleased to have such a younger sister, not because of her status, but because of her understanding and consideration.

Qingchen hugged him, even though he knew that Xie Jinxuan agreed to her compromise, but he still asked, "Can I give my brother three months? If it takes longer, the emperor will really be unhappy Three months is enough for me to choose a good marriage for you, if the delay continues, I can't find an excuse, and I don't know how to explain to the emperor."

"Okay, then three months. I can't always make things difficult for you." Before Xie Jinxuan could finish his sentence, he heard footsteps coming from outside, and then the emperor opened the bead curtain and walked in.

Qing Chen hastily straightened his clothes, and knelt down together with Xie Jinxuan, "The minister, my concubine, see the emperor, the emperor is auspicious."

Xiao Jun smiled and sat down on the heated kang under the south window, and said: "Stay flat, when I came out of the Library Pavilion, I heard that Jinxuan had entered the palace, so I knew he came to you without even thinking about it. I don't want to." I was bothering you, so I went back to the imperial study to review the papers. I thought he had already left now, but I didn't expect you two brothers and sisters to have so many things to say, and it was getting dark outside, and you didn't realize it. If you don't let him go, The gate of this palace is about to be closed, is it possible that you still want to keep him in the palace for the night? If you have anything to say, it will be the same if you summon him another day. "

Xie Jinxuan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, forgive me. I haven't seen you for many years. I have a lot to say. I didn't expect to delay my mother for so long. It's all my fault. I'm leaving now."

"I don't mean anything else. It's been a long time since you brothers and sisters have seen each other. It's human nature to catch up on the old days. It's just that it's too late today, so you can come back when you have time. If that's the case, then let the fifth son send you out of the palace. "The emperor casually picked up the tea that Yun Lan handed over, and seeing Xie Jinxuan retreated, he sneered and said: "How old are you, and you still act like a baby with your brother, and you don't know how to be shy."

Qingchen retorted disapprovingly: "Chenqie's own brother, what's there to be shy about? Besides, we brother and sister have been separated for so many years, my brother just wants to hug Chenqie like he did when he was a child."

The emperor put down his teacup, and Zhang Kuai smiled with his arms wide open, "Come here, let me hug you too."

Seeing that he seemed to be in a good mood, Qingchen was relieved, she sat in his arms casually, and asked with a smile: "Is the emperor hungry, do you want to have some snacks to pad your stomach first?"

"I'm not hungry. Dinner will be served outside right away. Let's eat together later." Xiao Jun hugged her comfortably and chatted like a family: "On the way back from Zangshu Pavilion, I met Jinxiu and Liangjie. Yu, she said that Yibin's birthday is coming soon, and you want to put on some performances in Lingyin Pavilion to celebrate Liang Jieyu, I thought you never liked the excitement on the stage, why did you suddenly think of such an idea?"

Qingchen said naturally: "Because of many unsatisfactory things in the past few years, even the Queen's birthday was not much planned. The palace is always covered with a layer of gloom and mist, which makes people feel uninterested. Now the Emperor Without so many troubles, the concubine thinks that it will be lively for a few days, making everyone happy, what does the emperor think?"

The emperor has always been too lazy to worry about these things, so he replied casually: "You can figure it out. After all, it is you who are generous, and you are still willing to celebrate her birthday lively for her concubine. This is probably the relationship between you and the empress." It's different. The empress is kind-hearted and ruthless, and she loves to hold grudges. But when you first came to power, although you were a little strict on the surface, you were willing to leave room for others in everything. I am very pleased that you are the master of the harem. In other words, what I have always wanted to give you is finally in your hands. The so-called husband and wife means that I worked hard to support the world in the previous dynasty, and you took care of the housework in the harem. Then when I come back from a busy day, I can After eating the hot meals prepared by my wife, as well as a comfortable bed and a gentle smile, just like now, no matter how tired I am, I still feel comfortable in my heart."

Qingchen raised his hand and gently scratched the tip of his nose, and said affectionately: "The concubine understands the emperor's hard work, and can't share the emperor's worries, so she can only take care of the harem and prevent the concubines from causing trouble to the emperor. Dinner outside It's already set up, will the concubine serve the emperor for dinner?"

Xiao Jun smiled gently, held her hand and walked out, and reminded by the way: "No matter how busy you are, don't forget to meet Mu Jingzhi and the old lady of the Mu family. After all, in the eyes of outsiders, that is you. Serious mother's family, since you're back, the sooner you can see them, the better."

"The concubine has made a note. Then tomorrow, I will send someone to send a message to Mrs. Mu's mansion. When Mrs. Mu is free, I will set a date to announce my meeting. Married daughters are not allowed to go back to the mansion easily because of the New Year's Eve. To visit relatives, I can only take the old lady for a walk." The palace rules are like this, besides, if the family visits, the Mu family will have to mobilize teachers and mobilize people to prepare, so there is really no need to be so troublesome.

Xiao Jun responded calmly, with such an attitude, it was as calm and warm as an ordinary couple discussing household affairs, "Don't forget to prepare some gifts, you haven't been in the palace for two years, Mu Jingzhi asked more than once As for your whereabouts, it is said that Mrs. Mu is very worried about you, the Mu family are people who value affection, and they are not just greedy for your status as an imperial concubine, so you should cherish this fate."

Qingchen hurriedly said: "The concubine understands that Mu's residence is not like other rich and powerful families. There are no fights between three wives and four concubines, and there are many fewer disputes. Therefore, Mrs. Mu treats people kindly and kindly, and does not have so many insidious thoughts. Although the minister The concubine is not her own daughter, but as long as she finds someone who falls in love with her, she will treat her sincerely, it is the concubine's blessing to have such a mother's family to rely on, how dare the concubine not hesitate to be blessed?"

Xiao Jun handed the handkerchief to Jinxiu. Although she didn't say anything, she could tell from the cheerful expression that he appreciated her words very much.

When Qingchen was having dinner happily, Concubine Xian of Huayu Palace's dining table was overturned by her. The soup and water were spilled all over the floor, and broken dishes and bowls were scattered everywhere. With red eyes, the concubine reprimanded a few confidantes who were kneeling on the ground, and scolded through gritted teeth: "They're all a bunch of idiots, and they saw that the work was about to be done, but they fell short! How did the imperial concubine get the news? Did someone leak the news?"

Zizhu knelt on the ground, and replied tremblingly: "Mother, don't be fooled. Xiao Yinzi has many eyes and ears in the palace. If someone sees it, it is normal to report to the imperial concubine for the invitation. If you haven't done anything, you should cut off your arm first."
