It was not the first time for Chu Xiang to deal with the emperor. She knew the emperor's suspicion, ruthlessness and various methods very well, and she never underestimated any emperor. After discovering that the emperor's secret guards were watching her, she didn't relax so much. She let Qiankun mirror watch by her side during her practice, and let Qiankun mirror watch the emperor when she was idle and not afraid of being watched.
Xiao Yuanzhao originally wanted to wait for Chu Xiang to be happy in the Chu family that day, and then return to the palace and stay overnight in Taihe Palace. After all, they were like that in the carriage, and they went out of the palace to have fun together. After returning to the palace, it is natural to stay overnight.
In the end, because he found that Chu Xiang had misunderstood him, it seemed that the feeling of intimacy disappeared all of a sudden. He was anxious to explain clearly, but he also found that Chu Xiang no longer let him hold hands, and could always hold hands with him naturally. Keeping a little distance away made him uncomfortable on the way back to the palace, and he didn't have the nerve to stay in the Taihe Palace.
In the next few days, he didn't let the dark guard go to Chu Xiang's side again, but asked the dark guard to check the two shops opened by Chu Xiang, and then check if there was any abnormality in Qingzhu and Hongrui.
Chu Xiang learned about this through the Mirror of Heaven and Earth, and began to prepare for leaving the palace, and did not plan to fall in love with the emperor anymore. There are countless handsome guys outside the palace, why choose a difficult mode? She was not afraid of the emperor's investigation, anyway, she didn't use the people around her to do anything, and she didn't leave any traces, and no one could find out the abnormality.
Sure enough, after the dark guard checked Qingzhu and Hongrui, they found that they were not Chu Xiang's confidantes at all. Chu Xiang had no confidants at all, let alone a dark force.
Xiao Yuanzhao couldn't figure it out, and muttered a few words when there was no one in private, "It's impossible for her to have no power, otherwise how would she know so many things?"
This made Chu Xiang feel very strange. She recalled all her performances in front of Xiao Yuanzhao, she was completely normal, a favored concubine who did not like to obey the rules, and was prone to anger and temper, there was nothing wrong with it. She didn't discuss anything with him at all. What does it mean to "know so many things"
When Xiao Yuanzhao came back, everything was as usual in Chu Xiang, but he began to use the universe mirror to watch his every move in all directions.
Xiao Yuanzhao came to tell Chu Xiang the good news, "Chu Shangshu has already popularized the bookkeeping method and won the praise of all officials. He has made great contributions as soon as he took the post of Minister of the Ministry of Households, and he has already secured this position. Let him reveal that this method is what Aifei thinks, and now many people are also praising Aifei."
Chu Xiang smiled and said, "I thought it up for the sake of settling accounts and saving trouble. It's a good thing if it can be useful to everyone. I don't want to name it."
While drinking tea, she thought, it's not bad to have a good reputation, the Chu family will be more stable in the future, and she can feel at ease when she leaves.
Xiao Yuanzhao's expression changed slightly, a little annoyed, why is she leaving again? What's the meaning? Could it be that the day she discovered the dark guard, she would no longer be tender and affectionate to him? Obviously not in the carriage.
Chu Xiang saw the change in his expression from the Qiankun mirror, and was a little puzzled. Did she say anything? She only said one very ordinary thing, why does the emperor have a strange expression
Xiao Yuanzhao was startled when he heard her voice, and hastily lowered his eyes not to reveal his emotions. How could she detect such subtle changes in him? She didn't seem to look at him either.
Xiao Yuanzhao felt more and more that Chu Xiang was unfathomable, but the most urgent thing was to keep her from leaving. He thought about it and said, "What does my concubine like to do when she is bored? If you have a handkerchief you want to see, you can go to the palace to accompany you, or you can call someone Let's read, play and sing, dance. I'm quite busy these days, if I have time, I can take my concubine out of the palace, how about it?"
"Okay, thank you, Your Majesty." Chu Xiang smiled at him, not interested.
Xiao Yuanzhao added: "I forgot to tell you that the court lady has already confessed, and it was Concubine Xi who ordered her to assassinate me. It is still useful for the Qi family to keep it, so Concubine Xi should be locked up in the bedroom for now, and we will deal with her when the time comes."
Chu Xiang nodded. The regent had already started to have a headache and was irritable. She was able to jump around in a few days. She didn't care what happened to Concubine Xi. Anyway, as long as the emperor didn't die, the prosperity and wealth of the Chu family would not be affected.
Xiao Yuanzhao tried his best to bear it, and his expression did not show any flaws. He was shocked. Why did Chu Xiang say that the regent will be able to jump in a few days? He knew that the regent had a headache and announced the imperial physician, and punished the imperial physician after the medicine didn't work, but Chu Xiang meant it as if the regent was not sick. What happened to the regent that he didn't know about? Or what did Chu Xiang do to the regent
If Chu Xiang did it, how did Chu Xiang do it? Could it be that Chu Xiang's power is so strong that he can't detect it at all
While Xiao Yuanzhao was startled, there was an unstoppable feeling of excitement and joy in his heart, like meeting an opponent at chess, and like a partner who could fight side by side. Regardless of whether Chu Xiang did something to the regent, the regent often has headaches and is irritable at this time, which is the most beneficial to his plan. His deployment can get twice the result with half the effort!
Xiao Yuanzhao was so curious that after returning to his bedroom, he immediately asked someone to check the situation of the regent, and told him: "Find out how often the regent has a headache, how bad it is, how many times he gets angry in a day, and how many people hate him in private. people."
Chu Xiang looked at his series of arrangements through the mirror of heaven and earth, and was puzzled. The regent is too good, he just had a headache for a few days before the emperor saw that something was wrong. But this also shows that the emperor is more powerful than she imagined, hiding his secrets and scheming deeply.
She asked the maids to stay outside the door and began to practice. She was leaving, and the emperor was dealing with the regent at this time, so he probably wouldn't care too much about her "death". Perhaps she could also blame the Prince Regent for her own death. Isn't Concubine Xi locked up in her bedroom? Use Concubine Xi to accuse the regent of another crime. Anyway, the original owner died at the hands of the regent's assassins, so it is considered revenge.
It was very difficult for the secret guard to find out the specific situation of the Prince Regent's headache. The imperial physician could not find out the cause, and the Prince Regent's headache seemed to be getting worse day by day. It looked very abnormal, but the regent had secretly invited several doctors to no avail. He only said that he didn't have a good rest, just sleep more and don't get angry.
However, the regent had a headache and couldn't sleep, and he was very angry, and became more and more angry.
Xiao Yuanzhao was very satisfied with this situation, so he accelerated the speed of collecting the net, cleaned up the power of the regent, and deliberately stimulated him. The regent could no longer pretend to be Maitreya Buddha in a cheerful manner, and had a sullen face in the court hall, which made Xiao Yuanzhao very happy.
On this day, he appointed his own people to important positions, which caused the regent to suffer a dark loss. He was in a very good mood, and he went to the Taihe Palace to find Chu Xiang as soon as he came to court.
Chu Xiang was tidying up the warehouse. Xiao Yuanzhao rewarded her with too many things, and she got a lot of things when she was a concubine. She walked slowly in the warehouse, thinking about what she could take away.
She knew from the Qiankun Mirror that Xiao Yuanzhao was coming, so she walked out as if to meet Xiao Yuanzhao, and said with a smile, "The emperor has gone to court? Don't you need to deal with government affairs today? Why do you have time to come to my place?"
Xiao Yuanzhao happily stepped forward to hold her hand, "I have lunch with you before going to approve the memorial. What was Aifei doing just now?" He looked in the direction of the warehouse and said in a good mood, "But what do you want? ? I asked someone to bring it to you."
"I want a lot of medicinal materials. Recently I fiddled with those medicinal materials according to medical books and accidentally discarded many of them. If the emperor wants to give me something, it is better to use medicinal materials." Nine out of ten things in the inventory can't be taken away, only medicinal materials You can take it away, just choose the medicinal materials.
Xiao Yuanzhao's good mood suddenly disappeared, she still wanted to leave, she always wanted to leave, why did she insist on leaving him? Obviously, her attitude towards him was different before, why was she suddenly in a hurry to leave
He nodded calmly and said: "I will send you whatever I want. Speaking of which, I have been in the palace for more than a year, and I have saved me twice. Only with Aifei can I relax. I have ordered Qin Tianjian chooses the auspicious day of the zodiac, and wants to make his concubine his concubine. At that time, you and I will be a real husband and wife."
Chu Ze was a little surprised when he heard the words. Didn't the emperor say it was a surprise? Why did you say it all of a sudden
Chu Xiang didn't feel any joy, but just said with a smile: "The emperor is so kind to me."
There is no difference between a queen and a concubine. In her eyes, they are all miserable women who are confined to the harem to fight for a man. In the palace, she had to guard against the emperor killing donkeys, killing people with knives, and setting up targets to spread hatred. It would be better to go out for a tour of the mountains and rivers, and then she would be able to travel with her beauty, so she would be very relaxed.
Now Xiao Yuanzhao couldn't hold back his expression, and his face turned dark.
What travel with the United States? She wants to go out and find wild men? ?
And those thoughts of killing donkeys, killing people with knives, and setting targets, is he so cold-blooded and heartless in her eyes? Was he good enough for her? Which woman doesn't have to fight for a man? He gave her the back seat and gave her the most favors, isn't that enough
That's right, she can think of traveling with beauty, which means that she wants to raise her face, why is she willing to serve her husband with other women
Xiao Yuanzhao felt that his head was shiny green, and he was in such a bad mood that he couldn't laugh anymore.
Chu Xiang wondered why he was suddenly unhappy? Could it be that she was too perfunctory in thanking her? Should she feign surprise and thank Dade? It's really hard to guess what the emperor is thinking, she'd better leave quickly, just as the emperor said that she was going to make her queen, she would go to Concubine Xi's place to show off her might later, and after angering Concubine Xi, she logically feigned death and escaped, perfect!
Xiao Yuanzhao turned his head to look away at the right time, not wanting Chu Xiang to see his downcast face. But Chu Xiang had already seen it from the Qiankun Mirror, and also saw his fierce eyes. He was very puzzled, what happened to the emperor? What did you think of? Could it be that they want to clean up the Chu family and prevent their relatives from becoming bigger? It doesn't matter, she will leave today, she is not the queen yet, and the Chu family is not a foreign relative.
Xiao Yuanzhao was startled, and adjusted his expression in an instant. He didn't understand why Chu Xiang couldn't see him at all and knew his expression and eyes. He was more cautious, not revealing anything unusual. But I was anxious, Chu Xiang was leaving today, and was going to fake his death at Concubine Xi's place. If Chu Xiang really left, where would he find someone
Xiao Yuanzhao made up his mind to destroy Chu Xiang's plan, and refused to leave after lunch. Chu Xiang wanted to feign death, and hinted: "Is the emperor going to be busy? I'm a little tired, I'm going to take a nap."
Xiao Yuanzhao hugged her and walked towards the inner room, "I am also a little sleepy, I will be with my concubine."
Chu Xiang was stunned for a moment, and it should be night when he went to bed, so why did he have to take a nap with her
After Xiao Yuanzhao knew what she was thinking, he deliberately carried her to the bed and lowered the bed curtain.
Chu Xiang thought silently—could this be the legendary breakup cannon
Xiao Yuanzhao thought without changing his face, what kind of cannon is a breakup cannon
