Quick Wear: The paranoid beauty grabs the waist and spoils her

Chapter 374 How to Compete with His Peerless Charm 19

Since she delivered the soup last time, she has served the Queen more often, and Nan Xiang feels very full.

The Queen didn't eat much of the food prepared by the imperial kitchen and the small kitchen, but a lot of it went into her stomach.

When she returned, she also read the book that Ji Qingyan asked her to read.

She found it boring before, but ended up reading "Daqian Regional Records" and "Complete History of Kyushu" with great interest.

The Qian Dynasty inherited the system of the Song Dynasty, but was also different from it.

Emperor Taizu of Qian and the first Duke of Wei joined hands to conquer the world. After Emperor Taizu became emperor, Duke of Wei devoted himself to defending his country and protecting Daqian.

Emperor Taizu was moved by his loyalty and righteousness, so he conferred the title of Duke of Wei on him and allowed him to inherit the title. The two also married their children to each other, and the friendship between the monarch and his subject has been passed down from generation to generation since then.

Emperor Taizu of Qianlong learned the lesson of the fall of the Song Dynasty, summarized the experience of previous generations, abolished some official systems of the Song Dynasty, streamlined institutions, reformed the recruitment system, and increased financial investment. After several generations of emperors, the "three redundancies" problem was finally resolved, and the country of Daqian was peaceful and the people were prosperous. However, new problems are now quietly emerging.

Five years ago, Daqian was badly hurt in a battle with Beidi. But Nanxiang looked through the books but could not find any detailed records of this battle. Moreover, the records of the Weiguogong Ji family in these books were also very brief, which made Nanxiang curious about this period of history.

Time passed quietly, and soon it was the day of the assessment.

After all, Nan Xiang was a little nervous.

She went into the study as usual.

As soon as I raised my eyes, I saw the Empress who was dozing with her hands propped up. She was wearing a dazzling red palace dress with exquisite golden thread lotus patterns on it, noble and elegant, wearing a phoenix crown on her head, with long black hair like a waterfall and skin as white as snow. Although it was not as grand as a banquet, it was still dignified and graceful, like a phoenix perched on a phoenix tree, noble and extraordinary.

Even the sunlight favored her, shining on her gentle face as if giving it a layer of warm halo.

The beauty here is peerless and charming, just like this.

Nan Xiang couldn't help but stare in amazement.

She had never looked at the queen's appearance so blatantly before.

With Ji Qingyan's repeated feeding and indulgence, she gradually became bolder and acted much more freely than before.

Four words to describe it is "let go".

Ji Qingyan was originally just resting with her eyes closed. She noticed the noise of Nan Xiang coming in, but she did not open her eyes.

Suddenly, an idea came to Ji Qingyan's mind, and he thought of the first time they met, and an idea came to his mind.

She wanted to see what the little eunuch would do while she slept.

This bit of fun flowed through her heart, making her heart ripple slightly.

Nan Xiang's straightforward and pure gaze tickled her heart like a feather, causing Ji Qingyan to snort for no reason.

As if aware of the changes in himself, Ji Qingyan's brain crashed for a moment, then regained consciousness, opened his eyes, and looked at Nan Xiang, who had retracted her gaze and stood obediently. His expression was complicated for a moment.

She rubbed her brows and said calmly, "Come here and serve me with my writing."

Seeing that the Queen did not test him immediately, Nan Xiang gave up thinking about it and hurried to the desk to grind the ink skillfully.

She lowered her head slightly, but couldn't help but secretly glance at the queen out of the corner of her eye.

She was filled with emotion. Her heart had been in turmoil ever since she entered Fengyi Palace, and it was especially evident now.

The beauty is like a water lily. When awake, she has an ethereal posture and unparalleled beauty. When asleep, she sways gracefully and has a myriad of charms. She is truly a beauty that makes people admire her.

While he was in a daze, a drop of ink splashed onto the desk. Nan Xiang was startled, and immediately came to her senses, and hurriedly apologized:

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I failed."

Ji Qingyan shook her head gently, not blaming him, but with a hint of smile in her eyes:

"Xiao Nanzi, you seem a little absent-minded today."

Nan Xiang blushed slightly and whispered, "My Lady, please forgive me. I just... I just feel a little hot."

Ji Qingyan smiled gently, stood up, walked to Nan Xiang, and gently wiped the sweat from her forehead.

At this moment, a look of astonishment flashed across her eyes, and the indescribable emotions in her heart became clearer and clearer.

As if she had figured something out, Ji Qingyan looked at Nan Xiang with a softer expression.

Nan Xiang only felt a warm breath coming towards her, and the queen's white fingers touched her forehead, making her tremble all over and her heart beating like a deer.

She subconsciously took a step back, but accidentally bumped into the desk behind her.

"Be careful."

Ji Qingyan reached out to hold Nan Xiang, and their eyes met. For a moment, a strange smell seemed to fill the air.

In the queen's arms, the two looked into each other's eyes. Nan Xiang then discovered that the queen's frame was much larger than that of an ordinary woman, and her figure was extremely tall, which made her look petite.

"My queen..." Nan Xiang called softly, with a hint of panic and shyness in her voice.

Ji Qingyan was slightly stunned, and seemed to realize the subtlety of the atmosphere at the moment. He quickly let go of her hand, turned around and sat back on the couch.

"Continue to grind the ink."

Ji Qingyan said softly, with an imperceptible tremor in her voice.

Nan Xiang took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and continued grinding the ink.

But her heart was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins and could no longer be calmed.

She secretly despised herself in her heart, and while grinding the ink she was preparing herself mentally, but she still looked unhappy.

Ji Qingyan naturally noticed that Nan Xiang was in a bad mood, and sighed secretly in his heart. A faint feeling lurked in his heart, like the faint sound of a string, and he sighed quietly.

"Go down."

Nan Xiang hesitated and said, "Then the assessment..."

"I know you've worked hard today, so go back and have a good rest. Come back at this time tomorrow to take the test again."

Nan Xiang felt a little better. Although she was still a little confused, she finally didn't have to stay here.

It must be the scorching summer heat that gave her the illusion.

Nan Xiang comforted herself in her heart, then bowed and left.

Sun Fuyu and Nanny Wei were standing outside the door. When they saw Nan Xiang leave in a hurry, their faces flushed and they smiled at each other.

Only the two of them knew the emotions expressed in their eyes. The other palace servants had no idea what Eunuch Sun and Madam Wei were talking about and just went about their own business quietly.

On the other side, Ji Qingyan looked at the word "静" (quiet) that he had written, but he couldn't calm down.

She put down her pen and called out to the door, "Sun Fuyu."

Upon hearing this, Sun Fuyu immediately went in and said, "The old slave is here."

Ji Qingyan: "Has anything happened in the palace recently?"

Sun Fuyu replied, "Your Majesty, everything is fine. There are no clues. However, the virtuous concubine wanted to interfere in Fengyi Palace, which would be detrimental to Xiaonanzi, but was stopped by our people."

Ji Qingyan's eyes were slightly cold, and then she smiled gently: "She is still too idle. Since she likes to recite sutras and pray for her son, let her pray for Daqian together."

Sun Fuyu was very perceptive and immediately understood what Ji Qingyan meant. He quickly responded, "We will report the kindness of Concubine Xian to the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager is always kind and will definitely appreciate your thoughtfulness. When the time comes, we will naturally let Concubine Xian go to Wanfu Temple to chant sutras and pray for blessings."

Hearing this, Ji Qingyan felt a little relieved.

The Empress Dowager has always loved to eat vegetarian food and chant Buddhist scriptures. She has been practicing asceticism in Wanfu Temple for many years and rarely interacts with the concubines in the palace. It cannot be said that she likes or dislikes him.

However, the Queen Mother never had a good impression of Concubine Xian from the beginning to the end. Since Concubine Xian entered the palace, the Queen Mother never treated her well.

Everyone knew that even though Concubine Xian gave birth to the third prince and was also keen on chanting scriptures and worshiping Buddha, the Queen Mother's attitude remained unchanged.

Therefore, Concubine Xian would never go and get close to the Empress Dowager to cause trouble for herself.

But now that Ji Qingyan has made such arrangements, Sun Fuyu only needs to use a little trick, and these two people who value face very much will have no choice but to accept her "good intentions".

Ji Qingyan didn't care about this. She put away the calligraphy of the word "静" and continued to instruct:

"Pass on my order, tell Liu Han not to act rashly and continue to pay attention to the movements of all parties."

Sun Fuyu accepted the order: "Yes."

After everything was packed up, Ji Qingyan slowly stood up, waved his hand, sent Sun Fuyu away, and went straight back to the bedroom.

At this time, Nanny Wei walked in lightly.

The entire bedroom was exquisitely decorated and extremely private. At the moment, there was no one else except Ji Qingyan and Nanny Wei.

"Sir."

Nanny Wei called softly, took the coat that Ji Qingyan had taken off, hung it up carefully, and looked at the Empress in front of her with some concern, or rather, him - Empress Ji's biological brother, the Prince of Wei who died in the battlefield five years ago.
