Zhao Huaiye had a very headache.
The ministers forced him to become a queen, and A Xiao was very opposed to this matter. He was caught in the middle, very embarrassed.
It was because of this incident last time that A Xiao felt divorced, even though he ordered people to strictly guard her, he still told her to escape.
If the owner of the tea house hadn't been greedy, snatched her valuables and knocked her out, Zhao Huaiye might not have been able to catch her back.
If this matter reaches A Xiao's ears, will it make her feel disheartened and want to leave the palace and him
Zhao Huaiye was very worried, even though she swore a poisonous oath not to leave him, he was still worried.
Shaoyin is currently in the Imperial Garden.
Accompanied by Xia Lu and others, enjoy the flowers leisurely.
It's autumn now, and the chrysanthemums are blooming just right, golden, white as snow, moist as sapphire, bright as the sun's rays, beautiful and dazzling.
"Master, the Lan Xin Pavilion is in front of you, do you want to sit up there?" Xia Lu said.
Shaoyin looked up, and saw a tall pavilion standing in front of him. She looked up from below, but she couldn't see the whole picture of the pavilion clearly. The tall rocks and thick branches covered it, and she could only see the exposed corner of the cornice and half of the plaque.
"Okay." She nodded.
Now that she is the only concubine in the harem, there is no need to worry about any inconvenience caused by someone above her.
Shaoyin refused Xia Lu's support, and holding a silk handkerchief in her hand, she slowly stepped up the steps, walked up the smooth and flat steps, and finally walked up to the Lanxin Pavilion.
As soon as she stood up, she immediately understood the beauty of the pavilion.
If you look around, you can see the entire imperial garden, and there is nothing hidden about rockery, small bridges, pools, flower beds, etc.
If someone below does bad things, the people in the pavilion can see clearly.
"Just sit here for a while." She smiled.
There was a gentle breeze, and the sky outside was fine. Shaoyin sat in the pavilion, enjoying the scenery happily.
Looking at the clear blue sky, she vaguely recalled that it was such a good weather, she dragged some scum from the high platform and fell into a vegetative state.
"What's the name of that scumbag?" Obviously, Huihui also remembered this matter.
The tasks that have been done are all compressed into data packets by it, and thrown in an unobtrusive corner, like garbage. At this time, if you want to look through it, you have to reload it.
"The name is not important." Shaoyin said, "Things that are no longer valuable, remember what they do?"
After thinking about it, this is also the truth.
It stops loading data packs and starts chatting with her.
Xia Lu and the others were very good at serving, and in a blink of an eye, tea and snacks were served.
Shaoyin smiled and said, "You guys are interested."
And invite them to sit down, don't have to be so formal.
Xia Lu and the others didn't dare, so they hurriedly shirked: "Master, you must not! You are now Lady Zhaoyi, different from us, the rules must not be messed up!"
A bit of regret appeared on Shaoyin's face, and soon he stopped forcing, nodded and said, "Okay."
He picked up the teacup and drank the tea leisurely.
Hui Hui reminded her, "It's been poisoned inside."
She was the younger sister of a guard who was killed on the hunting ground. Their family is different from others, there are no other relatives, only two brothers and sisters depend on each other. After the elder brother was killed, the younger sister was very angry and wanted to avenge him.
She hated Chi Chuxiao and thought she was a troublemaker, so she made her into the palace. In order to sneak into the palace, she sold all her belongings and the house, and managed her business up and down, almost ruining her entire family. Finally, she sneaked into the palace and became a little palace maid.
If Shaoyin hadn't lived in Chengfu Palace, but still lived in Xuanming Palace in Zhao Huaiye, she would have to spend a lot of effort to poison her. It was Shaoyin who moved out and was still sitting idle in Lan Xinting, giving her a chance.
"Suppress the properties of the medicine." Shaoyin said, "It will take a few days before the poison occurs."
Huihui replied: "Okay."
According to the script, the younger sister was caught before she could escape from the palace after being poisoned. She was executed, and the group of people she had dealt with did not escape. They were all arrested and died after being tortured.
In addition, there were many innocent people who had nothing to do with them, but were involved, beheaded one by one, and died under Zhao Huaiye's anger.
If the little girl poisoned Zhao Huaiye after entering the palace, Shaoyin would praise her greatly.
But she chose Chi Chuxiao. Even so, Shaoyin still planned to help her. Not just for her, but for the innocent people who would be involved.
There is ash suppression, and the toxicity has not occurred for the time being.
In the end, the little girl who poisoned her thought she was not poisoned, and she was very annoyed! With a dagger in his pocket, he planned to assassinate her!
Shaoyin couldn't laugh or cry, so Huihui tampered with her memory, implanted the image of "Chi Zhaoyi poisoning and vomiting blood" in her memory, and escorted her to leave the palace.
A ten-year-old girl is already suffering from the loss of her dependent brother. Chi Chuxiao didn't die, and now she has fled to a small town, where she was taken in by a kind lady proprietress who opened a noodle shop. After she settled down temporarily, Shaoyin let the little girl run away.
In the blink of an eye, several days passed.
This day, when Xia Lu came to serve by her side, there was always some hesitation on her face. Shaoyin couldn't see this, so she asked, "What do you want to tell me?"
There was a look of struggle on Xia Lu's face. Biting her lip, she finally decided to tell the truth: "Master, Your Majesty... Your Majesty... is going to be a queen."
This is what she heard from a few young eunuchs when she went to the Internal Affairs Bureau to ask for something. If there is no accident, the queen is the daughter of the Zheng family, a powerful family.
Xia Lu has a very good relationship with Chi Chuxiao and knows what's on her mind. She doesn't like the treachery of the palace, and she doesn't like to be inferior to others. Wouldn't it be good to be a commoner outside and marry an ordinary man to be a lady? Like now, to be an empress of Zhaoyi, although she is favored and rich and honored, she is not qualified to speak loudly in front of the empress.
Therefore, after hearing the news, Xia Lu has been hesitating whether to tell her.
After Shaoyin heard this, she was silent for a while, and then smiled slowly. She raised her head, looked at Xia Lu, and joked: "The emperor will be very happy for you to tell me this."
Xia Lu was startled, and suddenly her face turned pale, and she knelt down suddenly: "Master, please forgive me!"
If Zhao Huaiye knew that she was actually soliciting truths in front of Empress Zhaoyi, I'm afraid her life might be lost! Xia Lu was terrified, bent down and wanted to kowtow, begging Shaoyin not to mention her.
Shao Yin stretched out her hand and stopped her: "Get up." Immediately, she explained: "I'm not teasing you, the emperor will really be very happy for you to tell me this."
Seeing that Xia Lu didn't believe it, she gave a wry smile and said, "Do you think you heard this by accident?"
Xia Lu was startled: "What?"
"It was the emperor who asked someone to tell you." Shaoyin put more strength in her hands and helped her up, "I will only know if you know."
Xia Lu was still in a daze, she had already turned the corner in her mind, but she just refused to believe: "Your majesty, he, he treats the master like this?"
Why can't you tell the master in person and face to face
Why do you have to make such a big turn to let the master know
"It's probably because he treats me with sincerity and really likes me!" Shaoyin laughed at herself.
Xia Lu's heart was blocked, and she suddenly became angry!
She really wanted to curse, because Zhao Huaiye's behavior was so disgusting, she kept saying that she liked her master, and she refused to let him out of the palace even if she died, even if the master had escaped, she wanted to catch him back, but it turned out like this!
But so!
What is this like
What is being a master? !
"Forget it, I just pretend I don't know about it." Shaoyin suddenly changed her mind, looked at Xia Lu and said, "In case he doesn't like you."
When Xia Lu heard this, her eyes turned red.
"Master, you are too difficult." She choked up.
Shaoyin smiled: "It's not difficult, good days will come."
That night, Zhao Huaiye came to Chengfu Palace for dinner.
"What did A Xiao do today?" After the meal, he didn't leave, but walked Shaoyin around the yard.
Shaoyin said casually: "Nothing to do, just pass the time."
Zhao Huaiye said: "If Ah Xiao is bored, I'll send someone to hug a few kittens for you. Do you like it?"
"I like it." Shaoyin nodded.
How cute is the fluffy kitten
When Zhao Huaiye heard that she liked it, he immediately felt very happy, held her hand, and said in a low voice, "I haven't sent a gift to Ah Xiao's heart for a long time."
This time, he sent it to her heart, will she treat him better
"Then you have to reflect on yourself." Shaoyin ignored the ambiguity and hints in his words, and said coldly.
Zhao Huaiye: "..."
He just wanted to sleep on her bed, why is it so difficult
Unable to bear it any longer, he stopped, held Shao Yin's shoulders with both hands, and said in a depressed voice, "Ah Xiao, when will you forgive me?"
"I didn't forgive you." Shaoyin said lightly.
"Then why don't you...don't want to get close to me?" Zhao Huaiye said resentfully.
Shaoyin still looked cold: "Because I don't like you that much anymore."
Like a needle, pierced into the heart.
Zhao Huaiye suffocated for a moment, pursed his lips and looked into her eyes, seeing her cold and indifferent like Leng Yu without warmth, he couldn't help feeling depressed for a while.
He let go of her shoulders, looked down at her and asked, "I gave you the kitten, do you like me a little more?"
Shaoyin nodded and replied calmly, "Yes."
The heart that had just sunk into the abyss suddenly felt warm again. Zhao Huaiye let out a breath and laughed, his voice was extremely soft: "I will try my best to make A Xiao fall in love with me again."
The two talked again, and then Zhao Huaiye left.
He was very sensible, knowing that even if he stayed, he would only sleep on the floor, and left quickly.
It's fine to sleep on the ground of Xuanming Palace, why even sleep on the ground of Chengfu Palace? Zhao Huaiye refused.
Shaoyin didn't know if it was because she didn't have the halo of a heroine, or because of Zhao Huaiye's own arrogance. Looking at the back of the man leaving, he snorted softly.
Xia Lu served her to rest, endured and endured, but still couldn't hold back and asked: "My servant, it seems that the emperor...has no intention of becoming a queen? Could it be that the eunuchs are talking nonsense?"
If he wanted to become queen, how could he not feel guilty at all when facing his master
"Perhaps." Shaoyin said lightly.
Xia Lu saw that she was not very interested, so she stopped mentioning it and waited for her to rest.
In the next few days, Xia Lu would always hear chatter from the little eunuchs and maids in various places, all talking about the Zheng family's daughter going to be in charge of Fengyi Palace.
Once or twice, Xia Lu can be regarded as accidental. But after so many times, she couldn't help but wonder, did she really tell her on purpose
She reported this to Shaoyin.
"You don't need to worry about it." Shaoyin said softly, "It's not because I'm capable that I can transfer you back, but because the emperor is willing to give me face. If he doesn't give me face and insists on disposing of you, I can't keep it." Yours. So don't say anything."
When Xia Lu heard this, she felt extremely sad: "Then, about the master..."
"The emperor will tell me." Shaoyin said with a smile, "When he can't wait for that day, he will tell me himself."
Xia Lu felt angry at first, but after the anger passed, she couldn't help feeling relieved. That's right, it's not as good as he wants, and he has to say it himself!
Thinking of this, when she looked at her master again, she inexplicably felt something was different. In her mind, if the emperor acted like this, the master should be very sad. But looking at the appearance of the master, he is not very sad. It's like... It's like my heart is cold and I don't care anymore.
She couldn't help feeling more sympathetic.
Zhao Huaiye lasted for half a month, but couldn't hold on anymore.
He originally planned to test A Xiao's reaction to the latter objection. However, to his surprise, after Xia Lu heard the rumors, she kept her mouth shut and didn't say a word to Ah Xiao!
He was a little displeased, and felt that Xia Lu, a court lady, was not very loyal. She didn't mention such an important matter to the master!
However, it is not important to send Xia Lu off, what is important now is how he mentioned this to A Xiao.
"Ah Xiao, I have something I want to tell you." Zhao Huaiye made a decision this day to tell her about it personally, "Listen to me first, don't get angry, there are other secrets behind this matter."
Shaoyin nodded, looking easy to speak: "Go ahead."
She seemed to be in a good mood, with a relaxed expression and a smile on the corners of her eyes and brows.
She hadn't smiled like this for a long time, but it made Zhao Huaiye's heart twitch, and he couldn't bear to talk about it at this moment.
However, when she was in a bad mood, it was even more difficult for him to speak.
"Ah Xiao, no matter what happens, you are the only one in my heart." He held her hand in both hands, his handsome face was full of sincerity and sincerity, "You are the one I really love."
A thin blush appeared on Shaoyin's face, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she withdrew her hand: "If you have something to say, talk about it, what are you doing with your glib tongue?"
"I'm worried that you'll misunderstand me." Zhao Huaiye was tickled by her blushing face, and held her hand even tighter, not letting her pull it back, "Ah Xiao, I... I'm going to be a queen."
As soon as the words fell, she saw a sudden change in her expression, and her smile suddenly disappeared.
"Ah Xiao! Listen to me!" Zhao Huaiye was in a hurry, and hurriedly said the following words: "This is a last resort, but I only have you in my heart, I swear, I have only you in my heart in this life, and I will never be wronged you-"
Before he could finish speaking, he was unexpectedly interrupted.
"puff-"
A mouthful of black blood spewed out from Shaoyin's mouth.
Zhao Huaiye stood in front of her, and immediately closed his eyes subconsciously. But they were too close, and he couldn't dodge at all. He could only feel a little heat splashed on his cheeks, with a bloody smell that was hard to ignore.
His heart sank! Regardless of wiping the blood on his face, he hurriedly opened his eyes, only to see that the person in front of him was pale, his eyes were closed tightly, and he was falling straight down. He hurriedly hugged her: "Ah Xiao?! Ah Xiao?!"
"Come on! Tell the imperial doctor!"
"Quickly send the imperial doctor!"
