What Song Jinning held in his hand was a round fan with a rosewood handle. The embroidery on the full moon-shaped white silk is extremely simple, nothing more than a branch of pink camellia and two butterflies.
She used this fan to completely cover her face, but now when she heard Li Chengxuan's question, the fan slowly slid down from top to bottom.
What was revealed first was the smooth and white forehead, then a pair of slender and graceful eyebrows, and then a pair of moist and clear almond eyes.
There was still a slight smile in the pair of almond eyes at the moment, and when he looked over suddenly, it was like the surface of water under the sun, shimmering with waves.
Later, there is a beautiful nose and cherry lips, and a sharp chin. Finally, her entire beautiful face was displayed in front of Li Chengxuan.
It can be said that Li Chengxuan watched the scene just now with bated breath. At this moment, Song Jinning's face was completely uncovered, and Li Chengxuan stared at her intently.
But corresponding to this, except for the moment when Song Jinning glanced at Li Chengxuan when he removed the fan to reveal his eyes, Song Jinning never looked at him again afterwards.
The round fan in her hand shook slightly, she tilted her head slightly, and a strand of broken hair on her sideburns rose slightly.
"Are you having fun today?"
The hand shaking the fan paused, Song Jinning seemed to think of something funny, and suddenly chuckled.
"There is not much joy. But Your Majesty, I met some people very much today."
"Which people?"
Li Chengxuan reluctantly moved his eyes away from Song Jinning's face, and asked very absent-mindedly.
Who can make you laugh like this when you meet someone? Hmph, every time you see me on weekdays, you have never been so happy to see you smiling.
If Song Jinning knew that Li Chengxuan would complain about such a trivial matter, he would really laugh out loud. After laughing, I have to point to the tip of his nose and ask him, how old are you, Your Majesty
But this is not ignorance, so she said with great interest: "I saw a lot of wives of aristocratic families. And these wives did not come alone, either with their own daughters, or Like being your own niece or niece."
Song Jinning didn't say anything about the fact that Mrs. Linchuan Bo didn't bring her daughter but her son. Anyway, this matter has little to do with Li Chengxuan.
If Song Jinning is said to be Qiqiao Linglong, then Li Chengxuan must be Jiuqiao. Hearing Song Jinning's words, he knew what the wives of those aristocratic families were planning.
A pair of long eyebrows could not help but wrinkle.
Counting the days, he and Song Jinning have been married for half a year. Since they only have the name of husband and wife but not the reality, it is naturally impossible for Song Jinning to conceive.
Because of this, the courtiers have reported more than once that the harem is empty, and asked him to draft and recruit the harem, so as to spread the branches and leaves for the royal family.
Ministers who have school-age daughters at home are particularly active in this matter.
Li Chengxuan was no longer the young emperor who could be manipulated by others. First, he said that the national treasury is empty, and the limited money should be used to let the people live and work in peace and contentment. How can it be used for drafting for themselves, which won the praise of some ministers who have no daughters of the right age at home. Then they selected a few ministers who had daughters of the right age at home and who were the most powerful ministers, and gave marriages to their daughters.
Moreover, the objects of marriage are all the sons of these ministers' rivals!
Hmph, let's see who will dare to jump again in the future! Jump around and give marriages again, until you have no daughters of the right age to marry in your family.
And the object of the marriage is to pick the son of your deadly rival!
Li Chengxuan's operation was as fierce as a tiger, and the previous dynasty was quiet for the time being, and no one dared to catch him and keep playing so that he could be drafted to enrich the harem.
It's just that he didn't expect that he couldn't get through here, and these people dared to hit the Queen Mother, and even Song Jinning.
Song Jinning had no idea of Li Chengxuan's efforts not to be drafted, and was counting with him the few girls she saw today with his fingers.
"... Mrs. Wei Guogong's daughter is the most exquisite and beautiful, Mrs. Jininghou's second daughter is the most beautiful, Mrs. Changxing's niece is the most bookish, and the official minister's daughter has the best eyebrows and eyes." .It’s true that the eyebrows are like green feathers, and the eyes are like lacquer, which makes people forget the vulgarity.”
Seeing the excitement on her face, those who didn't know thought she was going to draft for herself.
Li Chengxuan knows that the world has a saying of virtuousness and generosity when it comes to women's moral character. Not only can they not be jealous, but some even choose concubines for their husbands themselves. As the mother of a country, the queen should be like this, so that she can become a model for women in the world.
But seeing Song Jinning recklessly talking about other women's good points in front of him, Li Chengxuan felt extremely depressed.
He didn't speak, just listening to Song Jinning talking.
It wasn't until Song Jinning finished counting all the women he saw today that Li Chengxuan asked, "Among these women today, which one do you like the most?"
"ah?"
Song Jinning was confused. The hands shaking the fan stopped, and looked at Li Chengxuan with a puzzled expression.
How could she choose a woman to stay with her as a concubine after hearing what he meant
No, even if she wanted to choose, she should choose a man as the head of the face, right
I don't understand what Li Chengxuan means by this.
However, Li Chengxuan didn't wait for her to understand, and said again: "Why, what do you mean, you want me to bring all these women into the palace?"
There was a bit of gnashing of teeth in his tone.
But Song Jinning was still in a daze before, how could she know that Li Chengxuan's reversal happened in an instant, and she didn't realize it for a while, so she didn't notice the gnashing of teeth in these words at all.
He also used his own thinking to understand the two sentences of Li Chengxuan before and after.
He asked her which one she liked the most, presumably because he was too lazy to choose, and because he believed in her vision, he planned to accept the one she said was the best as his concubine.
The second sentence was to see that she didn't answer his first question, thinking that she was making things difficult. The reason for the embarrassment is also very simple, because those women are so kind, he thought she liked them all, so he just thought of taking them all as his concubines.
The logic is so tight that Song Jinning almost wants to give her a thumbs up.
I'm so smart!
As for whether Li Chengxuan accepted one woman into the palace or all those women, it didn't make any difference to Song Jinning.
Just shaking the fan in his hand leisurely, he said with a smile: "It depends on your majesty whether to accept one or all of them?"
But I was thinking in my heart, in fact, it’s better to take it all in, it’s lively. In this way, in the future, if she is free, can she still watch a group of beauties fighting in the palace
Although Li Chengxuan had expected that Song Jinning would say that, but when he really heard these words from her mouth, he still felt a sharp pain in his heart.
There is also a sense of helpless frustration.
I'm afraid it's not a stone that he likes, right? How could he not be aware of his intentions at all
@Foam
He couldn't stay here any longer.
If he stayed any longer, he was afraid that he would rush over and hold Song Jinning's shoulders and shake them vigorously, and then asked her that he was so handsome, but also had broad shoulders, slender waist, long legs, a tall and straight figure, and he was also a ninth-five lord Emperor, you still hang out in front of you every day and eat all kinds of delicacies with you, often your face changes when you are angry, but you never blame you, but why do you only have me in your eyes but never in your heart
When will you put me in your heart
He stood up without saying a word, then turned around with a sullen face and left.
When he walked to the door, he suddenly remembered something, and he turned around and walked back.
Song Jinning was surprised which song he sang, when he suddenly turned back.
She blinked twice puzzled, and just as His Majesty called out, Li Chengxuan looked up at her.
But still didn't say a word, just took out something from her arms and put it on the kang table in front of her, then turned around and left without saying a word.
Song Jinning: ...
Li Chengxuan, what does this mean
Gu Yu was entering the hall from outside, when he bumped into Li Chengxuan, he bowed his knees and saluted.
Before she could speak, Li Chengxuan had already passed her and continued on. The figure quickly disappeared at the screen wall.
Gu Yu stared at Yingbi for a long time in surprise. After confirming that Li Chengxuan had really left, he turned around and continued into the hall.
"Ma'am,"
As soon as he entered the hall, he saw Song Jinning looking sideways out of the window. He asked, "How did Your Majesty leave?"
In the past, whenever your majesty came down, he would definitely stay for dinner and also for the night. Why did he leave today without even having dinner
"I do not know."
Song Jinning turned around and stared at Gu Yu.
Bai Lu who was still standing aside couldn't bear to see these two bastards, and reminded: "Your Majesty, what His Majesty gave you just now."
Only then did Song Jinning remember that incident. Lowering his head slightly, he saw a rectangular box on the Kang table.
The box is made of huanghuali wood. There is no gold painting, no mother-of-pearl inlays, just a few lotus leaves and lotus flowers.
If Song Jinning looked carefully, he would see that the carved lotus was a double lotus. But it’s not that the box is not big, how big can the things carved on it be
Moreover, Song Jinning never expected that Li Chengxuan would use something like Bingdilian to express her feelings, so she didn't pay attention at all.
He reached out and opened the box without any hesitation.
She knew in her heart that this box must contain the good things that Li Chengxuan said to give her this morning.
I'm actually quite curious. I don't know what kind of rare or precious thing it will be, it is worthy of being so mysterious like Li Chengxuan.
