Tang Zhuozhuo could clearly feel that just after she finished speaking, the complexion of the man holding her hand suddenly became gloomy, as if the cloudless sky in August suddenly became cloudy and rainy.
Her green fingertips retracted slightly, following her heart, they rubbed against the man's palm, cautiously probing and hesitating, like a newborn animal whose eyes have not yet opened, its movements are light and gentle, only It makes people lose their minds for a moment.
Huo Qiu only felt that when these words came out of her mouth, it was like being hit by the ice edge formed under the eaves in the past three or nine days, and even the soles of his feet felt a little cold.
The lingering scene of the past few months is still vivid in his memory, but her nice words of comfort echoed in his ears, every single word even made him feel more scared than the swords and swords on the battlefield.
Tang Zhuozhuo saw that his face was gloomy and he didn't say a word, so he slowly withdrew his hand, glanced casually, and there was a striking red mark on the fair skin above.
She tilted her head slightly to avoid his sight, and felt that her throat was a little dry, and when she spoke again, there was clearly a hint of helplessness and sincerity.
"The emperor's kindness to his concubines is well known, so how can the concubines be willing to push you out?"
"It's just that the rules have been like this throughout the ages. Now that the courtiers and concubines are the lords of the palace, they should always think of the emperor, so that they can live up to the love of the emperor in the past."
At the end of Tang Zhuozhuo's words, his eyes fluctuated quietly, and the corners of his lips were curled silently under the cover of the shadow on the ground, and a beautiful little flower bloomed at the corner of his mouth, which was fleeting.
This is what you said yourself, Your Majesty, and now you finally have the opportunity to return it without saying a word. Seeing the man's darker complexion, Tang Zhuozhuo couldn't help but feel a little proud.
Since she is unhappy, then Emperor Chong Jian should not think about being alone and at ease.
She just wanted to find fault, until he dared not bring up that matter again.
Huo Qiu's chest heaved violently a few times by this seemingly understanding words, and this time he was really provoked to churning with anger.
Obviously every word she said was reasonable, but in his ears, she was full of ridicule, and every word made his eyes darken.
"The late emperor's funeral period is not yet over, and the situation in the court is in turmoil. At this time, I don't want to be drafted. Empress Lao is bothering..." He waved his black-yellow robe embroidered with dragon scales, stared at her for a while, and refused. this proposal.
As expected.
Huainan was about to start a war, and this man would definitely not sit still, it was only a matter of time before he sent his troops. Coupled with such a sensitive period, this man is extremely concerned about his image, and he will definitely not leave any excuses for criticism and dissatisfaction.
So no matter what, this draft will never really be on the agenda.
It was precisely because she was well aware of this that she decided to use this matter to reverse the situation of the battle a month ago.
In terms of playing temper, who has she lost? In the constant disputes in the Eastern Palace, she never lost a single bit of momentum, and it was better for both of them to lose than for her to cause wounds alone.
She is very good at tit for tat.
Tang Zhuozhuo's mind was full of twists and turns, but his brows were slightly frowned. After a while, he smiled, and his thin lips parted lightly: "Alright, Your Majesty can order some beautiful and clever ladies Summoned into the palace, wait for the time to be safe before drafting."
"The concubine paid attention to the noble daughters of several families. They are all talented, beautiful, intelligent and pleasant, and their family backgrounds are also..."
Huo Qiu raised his eyes and interrupted her words, his cold sword eyes could see through all the thoughts in her heart.
"I still have some things to do, so I won't be with the queen." After finishing speaking, he turned around and left in the direction of Qianqing Palace, his face was frighteningly cold.
He walked extremely fast, and disappeared completely before Tang Zhuozhuo's eyes in a short time.
Watching the man's battle, Tang Zhuozhao pursed his lips, his eyes glowed with the color of glaze.
An Xia saw it clearly this time, but she was even more anxious in her heart, she couldn't help interjecting: "Your Majesty, the Emperor hasn't come to see you for a long time, it's so hard to see you, why are you sending people out?" push?"
No one is more anxious than An Xia, for fear that his master will not be able to think about it for a while and repeat the same mistakes and quarrel with the emperor day by day.
Tang Zhuozhao stood under the sun for so long, his cheeks glowed with pink, and his forehead was sweating a little. At this moment, he walked in the direction of Changchun Palace unhurriedly, and said, "What's the hurry? A little bit."
Otherwise, how can you tell that man to try out what she feels in her heart these days
generosity? She was so magnanimous that she was even afraid of herself.
I just don't know if he is afraid of Emperor Chongjian
As soon as Huo Qiu arrived at Qianqing Palace, he couldn't bear to flip over the end of the inkstone. With a bang sound, the ground was stained with jet-black ink, and seeing puddles and puddles made people's hearts even more gloomy.
Li Desheng waved his hand to ask someone to clean up the ground, walked to Huo Qiu's side, and comforted him: "Your Majesty, don't get angry with your majesty, your majesty is also concerned about you."
According to him, today's empress is much kinder than before, dignified and dignified, a true motherly style, but this master and son don't know what's awkward in his heart, the more virtuous the empress, the more dissatisfied he is.
So far, neither side has been happy.
But in fact, only the Qianqing Palace was unhappy, and after more than a month, just looking at the extra wrinkles on Li Desheng's face, you can know the general situation.
Tang Zhuozhuo was not in a hurry, he planted some flowers and plants all day long, and even slackened his daily morning and evening routines, and gave up all kinds of excuses.
There are those familiar faces on the left and right, and they are not good at all. I am tired of looking at them every day, so I might as well lie on the bed and sleep lightly until the afternoon.
Emperor Chongjian acted vigorously and resolutely. In just three or two months, the court was basically calmed down, alien parties were eliminated, and upstarts began to emerge.
It is worth mentioning that according to the letter from the Tang Mansion, the Zhong family has made frequent changes recently, which has touched the bottom line of the emperor, and there may be some big moves recently.
Tang Zhuozhuo looked at the contents of the letter, closed his eyes lightly, and snorted coldly after a while, his slender fingers were like jade gelatin, holding the page of letter paper was stained with candle flames, the tongue of flame flickered quickly, she lightly let go of her fingers, and stepped back. After a few steps.
When the spark subsides, the letter paper has turned into a pile of black ash.
The Zhong family was just using this move to show their dissatisfaction. The eldest son was abolished, and the Zhong family had no successors. All hopes fell on the daughter, and they finally hoped for Huo Qiu to ascend the throne. In the end, Zhong Yuxi only got one The concubine's first name.
If you want to be favored or not, if you want status or no status.
This tone, no one in any family can bear it.
In contrast, the Tang family is sure to make money without losing money. Among the three prostitutes, the dragon and phoenix are highly valued by the emperor, and the only prostitute is the lord of the middle palace, and the glory of the family continues.
Why can't the Zhong family get anything
Sometimes, the dissatisfaction after the comparison will slowly breed a kind of rebellious thought.
And this obviously touched the emperor's mold.
Tang Zhuozhuo forgot after seeing it, and didn't take it to heart. Left and right are court affairs, no matter what, it can't fall on her, a woman in the deep palace.
Autumn in Kyoto, more than half of the flowers in the courtyard in front of the Changchun Palace have withered, and some have begun to bear fruit. Tang Zhuozhuo was afraid of the cold, and he had already changed into a small jacket early on, and his small face, which was originally only the size of a palm, looked even thinner.
For a whole month, Huo Qiu didn't step into the harem again, and he was deeply concerned about the draft selection that she personally mentioned. Every night, when he couldn't help but want to capture her, he was caught by her again in his memory. The indifferent tone was so irritating that he had to hold his breath no matter what.
Just when Tang Zhuozhuo thought that the stalemate would continue like this without compromise, things changed drastically.
It's mid-November now, the moon in the sky is full, and the deep black mist can't hide the clear moonlight. She twisted a piece of rose cake and put it in her mouth, squinting her eyes comfortably.
The incense in the temple was wafting, and there was a sweet smell in the air. Tang Zhuozhao cleaned his hands with a handkerchief, looked at the sky, and prepared to wash up and rest.
At this moment, An Xia looked a little flustered, and came in to report: "Your Majesty, someone is coming from Qianqing Palace."
Tang Zhuozhuo was taking off the jade bracelet on her wrist. Hearing this, there was an undercurrent in her eyes, and she felt panic in her heart for some reason. She waved her hand, "Xuan come in."
It was Sui Chang who came in, Tang Zhuozhuo remembered him, seeing him kneeling and saying hello, he flicked the sandalwood beads on his wrist, and smiled casually: "My father-in-law came late at night, but what orders does the emperor have?"
Sui Chang's face was no longer as brisk as before, he raised his eyes to look at Zi Huan standing beside Tang Zhuozhuo, then quickly lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, please move to Yili Palace immediately."
The smile gradually disappeared on Tang Zhuozhuo's radiant face, she frowned and tightened the handkerchief in her hand, smoothed out the wrinkles on her clothes, stood up and said, "If that's the case, let's go. "
Left and right is not a good thing.
It's really not a good thing.
Just entering the gate of Yili Palace, Tang Zhuozhuo glanced at it from the corner of his eye, and saw Zhong Yuxi kneeling on the ground after a row of guards entered.
And a handkerchief that looks a little familiar.
Immediately my brain hurts.
A few steps away from Zhong Yuxi, she bowed to the man sitting at the top and saluted, with just the right smile on her face, "My concubine greets the emperor."
Huo Qiu put down the small wine glass he was playing with, and finally raised his head after hearing the words, and couldn't help frowning when he saw her.
The woman has lost weight again.
Even thinner than what he saw when he sneaked into the Changchun Palace late at night.
"Come and sit." He nodded slightly, then pointed to the seat beside him.
Tang Zhuozhao was surprised for a moment, and under the pressure of his body, he paced and sat beside him, his expression momentarily unnatural.
"Why is Concubine Zhong kneeling?" She tilted her head and asked Huo Qiu. The two of them were already very close. When she tilted her head, her light breath sprayed on his cheek, which was crispy, itchy, and tingling. Seeing the faint sweet fragrance coming from this woman, he couldn't stop.
Huo Qiu's eyes were deep, and he didn't speak for a while, just stared at her for a while, then pointed to Zhong Yuxi in an unclear manner, and said, "Concubine Zhong, tell the Queen what you said to me earlier."
Tang Zhuozhuo naturally cast his gaze on Zhong Yuxi, the latter's eyes flashed wildly for a while, and when he raised his head again, he regained his accustomed sweetness and tenderness.
She didn't look at Tang Zhuozhuo either, she just faced Huo Qiu and picked up the handkerchief on the ground.
Tang Zhuozhuo stared at the handkerchief, and his heart sank when he saw the word "Zhaozhuo" on it. Before he could react, he heard Zhong Yuxi speak.
"Your Majesty, please tell me, after my concubine had dinner today, she wanted to go out to digest food when she had nothing to do. When she walked to the artificial mountain pass in the imperial garden, she saw a pool of black blood, which was extremely scary." She paused. , took a look at Tang Zhuozhao, and continued: "Then the concubine settled down, hid on the side of the rockery, and heard two people talking in the small cave at the mountain pass."
"The concubine was extremely nervous. She didn't dare to make a sound when she saw the pool of blood. She didn't fully listen to what the two said, but only heard a few words indistinctly."
Speaking of this, Tang Zhuozhuo clearly saw the flash of joy on Zhong Yuxi's face.
Today's game is completely aimed at her!
The author has something to say: This morning, my wife sent me a message.
She: I think I can be better today.
Me: Impossible, don't even think about it, just have a date with me honestly.
She: I have passed three thousand days.
Me: dbq is my interruption.
So today I am still three days old, hahaha, I have escaped from the top of the pot.
