Looking at the rather steep terrain under my nose, I wondered if I said something bad, would he push me down and cause an "accidental suicide"

Xu is because I didn't speak for a long time, Qi Sheng gently rested his forehead on my back, and asked me in a soft tone, "Huh? Pengpeng?"

I felt numb for a while, I couldn't help shivering, took a deep breath first, then turned to look at him and asked, "What's the bet?"

Qi Sheng looked up at me, the bright moonlight glowed in his dark eyes, and answered word by word, "Jiangshan, and you and me."

I asked again, "What kind of gambling method?"

Qi Sheng replied, "I bet I can protect you forever."

I smiled and said nothing.

Qi Sheng said again: "If I lose, I will give you the country. But if I win," he paused and looked at me deeply, "You have to treat me wholeheartedly, and accompany me to enjoy this ten thousand miles. country."

I replied readily: "No gambling!"

Qi Sheng was stunned for a moment, seemingly surprised, and asked, "Why?"

I couldn't help laughing and said, "Why do you treat me like a little girl? If you lose, it means that you can't protect me well. At that time, you can still give me the country? You treat the country as your own pants. Take it off if you want?"

Qi Sheng looked at me quietly and didn't speak for a long time.

I couldn't help but feel a little guilty, wondering if my words were too rude again.

Qi Sheng finally smiled, folded his arms, hugged me off the railing, and said, "Go back."

He couldn't say anything and took my hand and walked outside the pavilion. I tentatively pulled my hand back several times, but he grabbed it even tighter.

The two of them were speechless all the way, Qi Sheng sent me to the outside of Xingsheng Palace, and then turned to leave.

Lu Li was still guarding the lamp and didn't sleep. He was very surprised to see me coming back alone. Later, he heard me say that he had refused to make that bet with Qi Sheng. "Niangniang! Why don't you understand, the emperor is not betting with you, he wants to make an oath for you!"

"Yeah, I think he looks like I'm going to swear," I nodded, raised my legs, and while enjoying the massage from the hedge, I asked her, "So what? You will believe it if you change it?"

Lu Li was stunned for a while, then thought about it carefully, then changed the subject and said, "Niangniang, do you really plan to choose beauties from the harem?"

As soon as she said this, I suddenly regained my spirits, slapped the bed gang with my hand, and shouted, "Really, it's more real than real gold and silver!"

Lvli said: "Niangniang, the slaves think this is a fool's errand, except for the queen mother who wanted to take the opportunity to put a few eyeliners, maybe she will pick a few fox spirits to send over, and those from other palaces, I'm afraid even the rough envoys in our palace. Not even a girl."

I was taken aback for a while, "No way? You guys have to take care of your face anyway, right?"

The hedgerow was noncommittal, only slightly curled his lips.

Sure enough, on the second day, the palace maids selected by the Queen Mother arrived first, and they were of the highest quality. Seven or eight of them came at once. They were all tall, short, fat and thin, with faces as plump and round as silver plates, and almond eyes and peach cheeks. Like a weak willow... all of them stood in a row in front of me.

The steward girl who sent the people said with a smile on her face: "The Empress Dowager said, ask the Empress to keep one or two pleasing to the eye."

I was in a good mood, and I waved my hand cheerfully, "Everything is pleasing to the eye, leave it all!"

The steward aunt was so overjoyed that she could hardly close her mouth. She praised me for my kindness and generosity for a long time, and then she left happily.

The "beauties" sent from the rest of the palace are not so "beautiful". What's even more exaggerated is that Concubine Huang Xian actually gave me a picture that looks ugly at first glance, but even more ugly when you look closely, and it even closely resembles a certain empress in history!

I can't help but sigh, Concubine Huang Xian is really a very strong woman...

Lvli was very annoyed, and said bitterly: "Niangniang, look, what does she mean? What does it mean?"

I had to turn around to appease Lu Li: "Calm down, calm down, come with the beautiful one, you are not calm, you have brought such a safe person here, why are you still not calm?"

Hedge took a deep breath, clearly trying to suppress his anger.

The freehand brushwork on the side still felt like it was not lively, and he kept stirring up the flames, "Niangniang, this is not a matter of appearance, this is Huang Xianfei's disrespect to you!"

I gave a freehand glance in dissatisfaction, "Hey? Did I say you can be more dedicated? You are a professional eyeliner, you have nothing to do with your legs, and you can often run to the Orchid Palace. What kind of fire do you choose? ?"

Hearing that, his face turned pale, and he immediately knelt down to me, kowtowing while crying and defending: "The maid is wronged, wronged, since the servants entered the Xingsheng Palace, they have never even been out of the palace gate once, the servants have long since entered the palace. It's a change of heart, the slave has already vowed to abandon the past and be loyal to the empress..."

Well, Xiao Xie cried like a pear blossom with rain, but the small mouth said simply and neatly, just like another hedge came out. I turned my head to look at the hedgerow: "You must have contributed."

Lvli waved his hand very embarrassedly, and said modestly: "It's better to be a seedling, a child can be taught, can be taught..."

The "beautiful" kneeling in the hall was impatient, raised her face, and asked me harshly: "Empress Empress, but you want to keep the slaves? If not, the slaves will have to rush back, cage. The steamed lotus root in the noodles is about to start the pot."

I nodded, "Well, ok, ok, you can stay too. Forget about your steamed pork chops, let's go to the small kitchen at the back to see how the steamed pork with garlic that I want is."

That "beautiful" was stunned for a moment, but she was also a cheerful person, so she slapped her thigh, "Okay, this servant will pass!"

Everyone was stunned by the cheerfulness of this "beautiful", and they didn't say anything for a long time.

I smacked my mouth, breaking the silence, and praised: "He is really a refreshing person, there is a lack of such talents in the palace."

As soon as I finished speaking, I saw Lu Li and Freehand shiver.

I pretended not to see it, and only cleared my throat, turned my head and instructed Lu Li: "Count the beauties left today and leave them in our palace first, and find some proper nanny to teach them the rules. , and then deliver them to the emperor's palace one by one."

Hearing the words, Lvli's apricot core eyes suddenly turned into the size of apricots, and he said in astonishment: "Niangniang, do you really want to send it to the emperor?"

I hesitated for a while, and said, "Or just pick out the most beautiful ones first, stay by my side and wait for them, and send the rest first."

Ledge probably misunderstood my intention, and immediately heaved a sigh of relief. After a pause, he asked me again: "How to send it? Which one to send first?"

I thought about it for a moment, and then discussed with her, "Why don't you ask them to draw lots?"

Everyone in the hall was silent for a while.

But I think this is really a fair and good method. Write the word 'up' and put it in it, and whoever catches it will enter first! I opened my mouth and was about to elaborate, but the green hedge was already busy blocking my words, so I took a few steps forward to help me up, and while helping me walk to the bedroom, I said loudly: "My servant understands, my lady. If you are tired this day, you should be tired too, hurry up and lie down and rest for a while."

After entering the bedroom, Lu Li slowly slowed down, turned his head and looked at me sadly, and asked, "Miss, what's wrong with you?"

Yeah, what's wrong with me? I was also confused for a while.

A few days later, King Zhao suddenly came to visit me in the palace. I sent away the maid who was serving me, and described to him how I felt these days, "I was suddenly very scared. A person who knows water falls into the bottomless lake, grabbing a handful of empty space, nowhere to find anything, can only watch the lake drown his nose and mouth, and then wait quietly, or suffocate to death, Or choke to death…”

King Zhao habitually squatted under the porch, turned his head and glanced at me sitting on the Taishi chair, his eyes swept across my growing belly, and then said very calmly, "Sister-in-law, you already know how to do it. Is there water?"

I choked for a moment, and felt that my literary tone just now was in vain, and I immediately called out loudly: "Lvli, hurry up and lead Prince Zhao to the Orchid Hall."

Lu Li poked his head out from the door of the side hall. When Zhao Wang saw her, he quickly waved at her, turned his head and repeatedly said, "I know I'm wrong, I'm really wrong."

Seeing that I didn't say anything, Lvli backed away again, and King Zhao let out a long sigh, and after a moment of silence, he said again: "Sister Huang, you don't know him, he seems ruthless, but in fact he is a very serious person. lover."

I couldn't help but be amused, and asked him, "Who does he love? To your daughter-in-law?"

King Zhao said calmly, expressionless, "He is also very affectionate to me. I stabbed him in the back last time, and you couldn't help beating me up, but he didn't do anything to me, just called me. I am an idle prince, and I have a lot of wealth, honor and glory. If it were someone else, I am afraid I would have died a few times."

I sneered and said, "You can't die because the empress dowager holds the emperor's edict in her hand, and she is not allowed to kill her feet. Do you really think he remembers your feelings?"

King Zhao looked up at me and said slowly: "If an emperor wants to die as an idle prince, there are countless ways to make my death justifiable, but he didn't kill me." He paused and continued. : "Sister-in-law, the reason why you feel like you are drowning is because you don't trust the elder brother or the ninth, even the Zhang family behind you, you can't trust it completely, that's why you You will be afraid, you will panic, and you will feel that you will be empty wherever you grab.

I never thought that someone like him could say such philosophical words, and I was a little stunned for a while.

He looked at me quietly for a moment, but smiled, stood up from the ground, and asked with a smile, "Sister-in-law, don't think about it, let's take care of the baby, give birth to a white and plump princess, the emperor will come out. Brother must be very happy."

After saying that, he turned and walked away.

I sat for a while in a daze, and then I remembered it, and scolded him angrily at his back: "You only gave birth to a princess, and your whole family has a princess!"

As the season enters June, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the forces in the DPRK and China can't help but get a little restless. Qi Sheng intends to take back the military power of the Zhang family, but the Zhang family refuses to release the military power under the pretext that the situation in the northern Xinjiang is tense. At the same time, the tribes in Yunxi, who had always been subservient to Nanxia, also began to move, and they clashed with the Nanxia garrison several times. He Liangchen, who was guarding Yunxi, asked the court to severely punish the rebellion in Yunxi, but a "moderate faction" led by the king of Chu formed in the court.

The various forces in the DPRK and China are entangled, but Qi Sheng unexpectedly gave marriage to He Bingze and the second girl of the Zhang family.

As soon as this matter came out, layers of waves were suddenly stirred up in the court.

He Bing is the only son of He Liangchen, and He Liangchen is Qi Sheng's most reliant veteran. The He family is clearly a giant ship that escorts Qi Sheng, while the Zhang family is another big ship in the military. The marriage of the family, who threw the hydrangea to whom

When I heard the word "hydrangea" from the mouth of the hedge, I couldn't help but burst into laughter and said with a smile: "This hydrangea is real, and there are iron cables tied behind it. I don't know who can drag who."

Lvli also smiled and said, "The family sent a letter saying that the second girl's wedding date is in August, and it will not be so hot by then, which is the most perfect."

I was a little surprised when I heard it. Now I see that July is about to enter. If we get married in August, the time is tight enough.

Lvli saw the doubts in my heart, she looked carefully outside the hall, leaned closer to me and whispered: "There's no way, the second girl's stomach can't wait..."
