Funing Hall

Jixiang came back from outside, went to the room where he was resting, drank some water, washed his face again, and went out again.

Ji Li, who lived in the room next door to him, poked his head out and looked at his room again.He thought to himself, Ji Xiang often goes out recently, since His Majesty wants him to keep an eye on Ji Xiang, there must be something wrong with Ji Xiang, but why hasn't he showed his tail yet?

Afraid that he wasn't staring closely enough, Ji Li secretly reflected.

Jixiang walked directly into the study in the side hall and found Zhao Shishi who was reading with his head down again.

Zhao 11 was not a book lover in his two lifetimes combined. In his last life, since he decided to fight, he would fight wherever there was a battle. After all, only military exploits are real in chaotic times.But no matter how unfavorable he is, he is still a child in the palace, and he was properly enlightened when he was young.But compared to reading, he really liked the feeling of killing the enemy more.

Zhao Cong was a solid liberal arts student in his previous life, and he is also a solid scholar in this life. His health is not good enough to practice martial arts, riding and archery.

The Song Dynasty also always valued civil servants and knowledge.

Of course, Zhao Cong thought that it was not good to be too partial to science. Although he himself did not practice martial arts and did not know much about it, he wanted to cultivate talents in warfare.But for Zhao Shishi, he didn't know that Zhao Shishi likes to fight and has rich experience.He only knew that Zhao Shiyi had a talent for painting, and seeing that he liked reading those contemporary notes, he gave him a lot more.

Zhao Shishi also took his patience seriously and looked at each book.

Hearing footsteps, he looked up.

Ji Xiang saluted and said, "Mr. Lang, the little one is back!"

Seeing Jixiang's excited look, Zhao Shiyi raised his chin: "What did she tell you, and what did she give you?"

"Aunt Wang was cautious at this time, and asked the little one about His Majesty's daily schedule and past arrangements. At your order, the little one organized a meal for His Majesty, and she was very happy. And gave the little one this—" Ji Xiang said , while stretching out his hand from his sleeve, in his hand was a piece of silver, about two or three taels, "For a little eunuch like this one, she will get two or three taels when she makes a move."

"She has plenty of silver."

"It's just a small doubt. It's not His Majesty who she asks the most, but you."

Zhao Shixi smiled secretly. Of course he knew what Aunt Wang was thinking. He put down the book in his hand and said to Ji Xiang: "She sees that you have already taken the bait and collected the money. She must try it out for a few days, and then she will definitely take action. Zhao Cong's birthday is approaching, she can't sit still."

"Yes, the little one knows."

Zhao Shiyi waved him down, but couldn't help but think deeply.In their previous life, they harmed Zhao Cong very slowly, but now they are so panicked that even the way of harming others has changed.Is it because of haste that he went to the doctor in a hurry, or is there another trick behind it?

After thinking about it, he planned to visit Zhao Cong. After all, Xie Wenrui would go to Liao Kingdom with Queen Mother Sun's people tomorrow, and Zhao Cong must be worried.

He even got up.

But when he thought of going to the main hall at this moment, he would be dragged by Zhao Cong to drink mutton soup again, so he sat back again, let's go and see tomorrow when he chooses a day other than the meal time!

The next day, Zhao Shiyi waited thousands of times, and finally when the sun moved overhead, Zhao Cong must have already had his meal, and he walked towards the main hall.

Unexpectedly, I just watched a lively scene.

Zhao Cong has been concubine for nearly a month, and has never called anyone to attend her bed.

In the beginning, the Empress Dowager also reprimanded the people who were still in bed. The people who were still in bed had come to Funing Hall several times, but His Majesty still didn't call people to serve in bed. What can they do?Now that Zhao Cong has gradually been able to fight against Empress Dowager Sun, Empress Dowager Sun suddenly becomes a little negative and doesn't come out to take care of this matter anymore.

Fortunately, Zhao Cong was notorious for his poor health, and gradually, everyone understood why he didn't invite people to sleep with him.

Zhao Shishi also secretly wondered, could it be that Zhao Cong is really in such a bad shape?

But these are all digressions, besides, Zhao Cong often rewarded concubines with things, Concubine Shu gave the most rewards, and the other three beauties all rewarded the same things.

Today's excitement started because of this reward.

When Zhao Cong had breakfast in the morning, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't delivered anything to the ladies in the harem for four or five days, and the hibiscus pancake he was eating was delicious.

The hibiscus cake is steamed and made into the shape of hibiscus flowers, which are filled with red beans mixed with sweet-scented osmanthus sugar.

The red beans are boiled glutinous, but they are not ground into bean paste and wrapped in cakes.Zhao Cong likes to eat things just out of the pan, taking a bite of this freshly steamed hibiscus cake, some of the unmelted red beans flow into sand, and some are still granules.In the mouth, there is still the fragrance of osmanthus, and the skin is soft and waxy. The texture and taste are not to mention how enjoyable it is.

Zhao Cong is not a greedy person, but it is inevitable that he has something he likes.

Always eat more if you like it, he ate three and said: "This tastes good, give some to the four ladies."

Dyed pottery should be.

You can't just reward food, you have to pick the best ones for the matching dishes.Concubine Shu had to add some food besides food. Rantao often took care of these, picked a gold hairpin of hibiscus flower and put it in a brocade box, then turned around and was about to send it out.

She didn't want His Majesty to ask her to do something, so she had no choice but to give the things to the little maids below and ask them to send them.

Mistakes are inevitable in the busy schedule, and the little maids mixed things up.

The brocade box was sent to Mrs. Qi. As soon as Mrs. Qi saw the golden hibiscus flower hairpin, she was overjoyed, and hurriedly sent the maids beside her to inquire about it with the other two ladies in the Yanming Pavilion.

After inquiring, no one else has it, but she has it!

She originally had great ambitions, and the maid did not see His Majesty last time, so she was depressed for a while.His Majesty treats them differently from Concubine Shu, she is angry but dare not make trouble.

It's fine now.

She blushed with joy, picked out a lot of clothes, specially picked a durian red dress embroidered with hibiscus flowers, put on a quartz purple cloak, brought the maids, and went to Funing Palace with high spirits.

When Zhao Shishi arrived, Mrs. Qi was crying.

When he was on the veranda, he saw something wrong in front of him, Cha Xidu said: "What's the matter, this is it."

When they got closer, they took a closer look. A beautiful woman was crying, crying until the pear blossoms were raining.

The eunuch named Lu Yuan next to Fu Lu reluctantly persuaded: "My lady, please stop crying. Your Majesty also feels sorry for you when you cry like this?"

The little maid next to Mrs. Qi didn't dare to speak, and Mrs. Qi mourned: "Since you know His Majesty will be distressed, why don't you pass it on to me?!"

Lu Yuan's head is getting bigger, I really want to say, Auntie, don't you see what time it is!

Xie Liulang went to the Liao Kingdom with the Empress Dowager Sun's people. His Majesty is worrying about this matter. He didn't even see Concubine Shu, so how could he see you?

But he can't tell the truth, but such a person is not something they can speak or reprimand.

Lu Yuan had no choice but to persuade: "Lady, Your Majesty has something to do, do you think it's okay if you go back first? When you turn around, I will definitely report to Your Majesty!"

go back?Go back and not be laughed at by the other three?

Definitely can't go back!

Madam Qi cried more and more mournfully. As she cried, Zhao Shiyi got closer and closer.

Xu heard the footsteps, Madam Qi looked up sadly, Zhao Shishi glanced at her, she was indeed a beautiful woman, but she was not the same as Qian Yuemo.

Cha Xi still remembered this Mrs. Qi, and she was also kind, so she persuaded: "Ms. Qi, you go back first, the sun is also shining today, be careful of sunburn." It is easy to get red when exposed to the sun, and Chaxi is a court lady, so she naturally knows it.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Qi said angrily: "Even a court lady dares to laugh at me! I want to see Your Majesty! I want Your Majesty to make decisions for me!"

"..." Cha Xi froze for a moment.

Zhao Shishi thought to himself, Empress Dowager Sun is indeed a capable person, such a stupid concubine, I don't know where to find it.

Madam Qi still has something to say: "I was pointed out to Your Majesty by the Empress Dowager. You deliberately blocked me from seeing Your Majesty. I will tell the Empress Dowager to go."

Zhao Shishi was displeased because she reprimanded Cha Xi, and when he heard Empress Dowager Sun's name, he was already planning to go in, but when he heard this, he turned his head and glared at Madam Qi.

Madam Qi was bluffed, she cried for a while, and then became even more sad: "Your Majesty rewarded me with a hibiscus flower hairpin. I want to thank you, but you don't want to pass it on? How can there be such a reason?"

Zhao Shishi was bored and didn't want to argue with her, and didn't want to listen to her anymore, so he walked directly into the hall.

Lady Qi persisted: "Why can he go in! But I can't! He hasn't been summoned by His Majesty, nor have you informed His Majesty!"

Lu Yuan really didn't know what to say.

The first time the concubine Shu came back to the Palace of Funing, she spoke kindly to Mr. Xiao Lang, and the next day even sent a personal maid to give gifts.Even the other two ladies in Yanming Pavilion also sent gifts, but this lady Qi doesn't even seem to know who Xiao Lang is.However, Senior Official Fu and Sister Rantao are both serving His Majesty in the palace!He can only send this one away.

Zhao Shishi was even more annoying, why are these girls getting more annoying than each other!

That Sun Xiaoyu was very annoying back then, but this lady Qi is even more annoying!

He had never been married in his previous life, and after he became the throne, he didn't even have time to become a queen. There were quite a few concubines in the harem, but they were too busy to even look at them.Today he has seen it, and he understands why Xie Wenrui would rather cut off his sleeves than get married.

It is unreasonable!

Unless you find someone as unpleasant as Qian Yuemo, it's really not as good as Duanxiu!But how many people like this are there in the world?

The slight embarrassment and timidity towards Zhao Cong and the main hall due to the sheep soup and nocturnal emissions disappeared in an instant, and Zhao Shiyi strode into the main hall.

Zhao Cong was indeed busy, and this time he was on an envoy to the Liao Kingdom, Xie Wenrui was the only one of his people.

Although he knew that Xie Wenrui was measured, he was still a little worried.

At this time, he was sitting in the study writing a letter, he had explained so much yesterday, but there were still some omissions.He wanted Fulu to send this letter out of the palace to Xie Wenrui later, before they left Tokyo City.

He wrote the letter seriously, and he didn't hear the disturbance in the courtyard, and Mrs. Qi didn't dare to really make a big commotion.

When he was about to finish writing, Fu Lu presented his seal, and he was about to take it, but he heard Tao Tao say outside the screen: "Xiao Langjun is here! Hey——"

Zhao Cong looked up and saw Zhao Shishi walking in angrily.

"What's the matter?" Zhao Cong was surprised.

Zhao Shishi didn't know that he was full of anger now, because he had the appearance of a child after all, how much majesty could he have when he was angry?Naturally, he just looked like an angry child.

Zhao Shishi didn't speak, Zhao Cong asked Cha Xi, "Say it."

Chaxi lowered her head and said in a low voice: "Miss Qi from Yanming Pavilion asked to see Your Majesty outside the palace, but Pavilion Chief Lu said that His Majesty is busy and asked her to come back first. Then she cried..."

"..." Zhao Cong was quite speechless.

"She said that His Majesty rewarded her with a hibiscus flower hairpin, and she wanted to come to thank her."

Zhao Cong looked back at Rantao in confusion.

Rantao softly said "Oh", and said anxiously: "The hibiscus flower hairpin is for Concubine Shu!" She immediately understood and said to Zhao Cong guiltily, "Your Majesty, maybe the little palace ladies made a mistake! They are all maidservants. Son's fault!"

What is this all about!

Zhao Cong had a headache, and said to Rantao, "Go out and settle this matter. Is Funing Palace a market? Anyone can come and cry a few times?"

Rantao hurriedly saluted, turned and walked out.

Zhao Cong asked again: "Then why is Little Eleven so unhappy? Who bullied him?"

Chaxi murmured: "No... Madam Qi came in when she saw that Mr. Xiao Lang didn't need to be informed. She said a few words to Mr. Xiao Lang, and said..."

"What else?"

"You said that she was pointed out to your majesty by the empress dowager, and that she was going to find the empress dowager to make decisions, so Mr. Xiao Lang was not very happy."

Zhao Cong looked back at Zhao Shishi again, and felt a sense of appropriateness in his heart again, it really was not in vain!I also know how to feel wronged for him.

He said: "Don't worry, I will point you to a girl who suits your wishes in the future. It will never be like this. Before pointing, I let you take a sneak peek. If you like it, let's marry again."

Zhao Shishi was dissatisfied. When it came to referring to marriage, Zhao Cong was very energetic!

He thought that Zhao Cong should take care of the stupid concubine in his own harem first!
