Queen of the Black Phoenix

Chapter 305 Under the Wall of Xihe Palace
The princess's wedding ceremony is grand and cumbersome.

When night falls and the half moon hangs in the air, the carnival ends.

All the concubines finally returned to their own yard.

The girls are not as lively as before.

Maybe it's been a while.

Gradually, I understood many things that I could not understand before.

I used to think that I was beautiful and unique, and my father, brother, mother and sister all revolved around me.

After entering the palace, I still feel the same way.

Although there has been no glory for a long time, I always feel that the time has not come.

But today, the princess and Ji Li.

It wasn't just the newcomers who were in attendance.

The old concubines from the previous palace were also present.

It is said that she is an old concubine, but she is actually very young.

And the appearance is astonishingly beautiful.

Only people in the world can remember that there was a woman who was good at chess in the palace. She sat in front of the chessboard, which was the most beautiful scenery.

There was also a girl who was good at dancing, and when she danced, the fairies were ashamed.

There is also a woman who is good at playing the piano. When she plays the piano, the birds hold their breath.

There are so many women who look like flowers, and they used to be so beautiful, which one is not better than these young women.

But now, they are all quiet and well-behaved.

Because those who are not quiet or well-behaved are dead and crazy.

This is the day when the princess grows up, but unexpectedly, some girls in the harem grow up.

Even when Concubine Ju returned to her residence, she lay lazily on the recliner, not caring about the sour grapes she usually ate, and just stared blankly at Ban Yue outside the window.

He Guiren in the courtyard next door did not lie down with Mochizuki, and she was not able to attend the princess's ceremony today.

Naturally, she didn't care about worrying.

She is terrified now.

I worry that the day I give birth to a child is the day I die.

Even the former empress is no exception, what can she do if she is a little noble?

In just a short period of time, she has changed from a delicate and delicate little nobleman to a bit strong.

She is terrified of other people tampering with what she eats.

Because she has thought about getting something into the food of Ju Bi countless times.

But she was also worried that if she didn't eat, her body would not be able to bear it.

With such contradictory thoughts, she always ate hard while worrying.

So I ate a little too much.

Her slender calf was a little swollen, she listened very carefully to the maid's story about today, she listened to it again, and asked to say it again.

Then he sat quietly and ate, the food was a little cold, because the Jiji ceremony was very grand, so he didn't care much about her.

He Guiren still ate seriously.

If her family had the chance to see her again, they would definitely not recognize this, the woman who was serious about eating was He Xiao.

She is the youngest girl in the family. She has been in poor health since she was a child, and her body is weak. The family gave her everywhere. Even if her elder brother married his sister-in-law, she was still the center of the family.

In the eyes of her family, she is literate, reasonable, kind and strong.

All advantages in one.

If she hadn't married into the royal family, she should have become the first wife of a certain noble son, then she would be gentle and generous, graceful and beautiful, and firmly control the whole family.

It must be a good player in house fighting.

She is very good at this.

Even in the palace, she is not afraid.

She believes in herself.

She has a delicate and delicate face, and God rewards her with food.

Even if she did something wrong, others would subconsciously favor her, thinking that it was other people who did something wrong, not her fault.

She's been like this since she was a child.

But now, she did nothing, she was wrong.

She finally felt that feeling of being indefensible more clearly than anyone else.

As she thought, she ate, shed tears, and continued to think, while continuing to eat.

The maid stood behind her, wanting to stop her.

Master He has already eaten enough, and eating too much is not good for the child in the womb.

But the maid did not dare to speak.

After finally eating up all the cold dishes and rice on the table, He Guiren stood up and said that he wanted to go out to digest food.

It was already dark, and He Guiren had to go out to digest food, which was very wrong, she was still pregnant.

But she is like this, who dares to stop her.

After the carnival, the harem is relatively quiet.

At this moment, the emperor should be at Empress Xiao Zhao's place, enjoying the family happiness with the little princess.

He Guiren walked all the way, not fast, but approached Xihe Palace.

Standing under the wall of Xihe Palace, she looked up at the bare sycamore tree sticking out of it.

For some reason, her slightly swollen face suddenly smiled.

In the night, that smile was not charming, but rather gloomy.

……

Showa Palace is not what He Guiren thought.

The emperor is not in Showa Palace.

The little princess is not there either.

The emperor went to the royal study.

The little princess returned to the princess palace.

In the Showa Palace, there is only Empress Xiao Zhao herself.

After taking off the gorgeous dress, Xiao Zhao's whole body was soaked in warm water.

The long hair floats on the water.

There are beautiful flowers in the water.

Because the water temperature is a bit high, the flowers are steamed very fragrant.

The aroma is strong.

Xiao Zhao then closed her eyes, her long eyelashes covered her eyes, which were wet.

Behind her was a maid of honor who was washing her face and massaging her carefully.

With soft and round fingertips, rub the area under her eyes little by little, from the end of her eyes to her lips.

"Yi Ren said that these are nasolabial folds, and only people who are unhappy in life have them. I found that the lines here are a bit heavy recently, and the flesh on both sides of my cheeks is also a little hard." Xiao Zhaohou said in a calm voice.

The maid's fingertips were pressing on the piece of flesh on Xiao Zhao's back cheek.

It is relatively hard.

Empress Xiao Zhao took good care of herself, and the skin on her entire face was tender and fair.

Only the two cheeks are a little hard, which should be because she doesn't like to laugh. Although Xiao Zhaohou always smiles when she is with people, she doesn't like to laugh and is very serious.

Those two pieces of slightly hard meat couldn't be opened by kneading, which also made Xiao Zhaohou look a little fierce.

Next to the hot pool, there is a mirror.

It was a little fuzzy because of the steaming water.

So Xiao Zhao couldn't see himself in the mirror clearly, he could only have a blurred appearance, just like looking at himself in a bronze mirror before.

The maid listened to the nagging of the empress, but did not answer.

She just continued to massage that position seriously.

"For so many years, I have rarely made mistakes. I am very serious and conscientious. I am my queen, the most honorable position in the world. I am tired."

The maid's gestures didn't stop, she pressed her cheeks to her chin.

"Today, Yiren finally reached the age of Ji, so I should do something. Back then, my aunt said that everything will be fine when the child reaches the age of Ji."

The maid pressed her chin, which affected her speech a bit, so Xiao Zhao shut up for a while.

Looking at the mirror on the opposite side, he suddenly broke free from the maid's hand, swam to the opposite side, and vigorously wiped the fog on the mirror with his hands.

Wipe away the fog, and the water droplets.

But finally clear.

After Xiao Zhao looked in the mirror, there was a woman with a smooth forehead and a blush complexion, with a slender neck and fair skin.

The flowers in the pond are not as good as hers.

Not as good as her!
"Yi Ren knows so many things. There was no such mirror before, only the bronze mirror. The people in the bronze mirror are crooked. This mirror is very clear, even the black spots on the face can be seen."

She smiled at the mirror.

Beautiful and proud.

It is indeed a bit fierce.

She looked at both sides of her cheeks a little annoyed, a little annoyed.

She thought of Bo's ordinary face, that face was not as good as hers, not as delicate, not as good-looking as hers, not as fair as hers.

But that face is very peaceful, it is a face that feels very gentle at first sight.

There is another person's face, too.

That person lives in Xihe Palace.

The man is crazy.

Xiao Zhao finally got up from the water.

The maid wiped her body clean, put on her clothes, and her hair was smoked and half-dried.

Xiao Zhao felt that all the exhaustion had been washed away, and she was very comfortable.

Xiao Zhao then left, and the maid quietly sent him off behind her back.

She is very good at fingering, and was chosen to serve Empress Xiao Zhao personally.

Empress Xiao Zhao was under a lot of pressure. She liked to talk when she only received massage.

From the beginning to the end, the maid did not say a word.

She opened her mouth, only half of her tongue.

……

In the night, Empress Xiao Zhao left the Zhaohe Palace.

Following the tree-shaded palace wall, they came to the Xihe palace wall.

The dark yellow moss in the corner is very slippery.

Xiao Zhao then stood under the wall, looking up at the sycamore tree.

In the dark night, the bald sycamore tree looks like a monster with teeth and claws.

Very bony.
