On the Self-cultivation of the Concubine

Liu Qinglan put down her hands and looked at the beauty queen next to her in puzzlement.

Xie Xuanzhao looked around, then walked under the peach blossom tree, reached out to touch its trunk, and fiddled with the leaves to make sure it was a real peach blossom tree, and then said: "This peach blossom blooms in autumn, it's really weird, now It's just the two of us, so I'm afraid it's not suitable to stay here for a long time."

"There's no danger here." Seeing that she was so cautious, Liu Qinglan couldn't help but hold her forehead, and then wanted to pull her back to her side.

Xie Xuanzhao grabbed her wrist with his backhand, put his finger on his red lips, hissed, and said with frowned, "Listen, there is the sound of an ax dragging the floor."

When Liu Qinglan was told in this way, she just recovered from the thoughts of rushing to make love.

The group of fox friends and rabbit friends around me also stopped, hiding in the bushes without saying a word.

The sound of the ax dragging on the ground was getting closer, and the white rabbit said quietly: "The hunter of this forest has come, and we have to go. He won't embarrass human beings. You can stay with your beauty queen." Can."

Liu Qinglan hurriedly used her demon power to spread the voice, "You guys go, go back to the den and don't come out."

After the little animals ran away, Liu Qinglan grabbed the sleeve of the beauty queen, hid behind her cowardly, and asked, "Why did he drag the ax on the ground?" The voice sounded harsh.

Xie Xuanzhao said calmly: "Because the royal family likes to go hunting in Huoshan, they have raised a group of royal hunters on this mountain, who are responsible for guarding and taking care of this mountain. Now that the emperor enters the mountain, they should stay at home and wait for orders. Come out now , Someone should have given him an order and came out to do business. The ax was dragged on the ground to create momentum."

Liu Qinglan looked forward, and following the sound of footsteps approaching, it was indeed a hunter, with a tiger skin skirt around his waist, holding a thing in his hand.

The queen hunter in charge of this mountainous area naturally knows the empress, and has seen it from afar at the hunting conference every year.

"Empress, the guards just passed by on patrol, claiming that they found a demon tree here, and ordered the young one to come and cut it down." Seeing Xie Xuanzhao in front of him, he quickly knelt down and saluted, and the knife and ax on the side flickered cold light.

Xie Xuanzhao nodded and said, "Huo Qing, you came just in time. I found out too."

When Liu Qinglan heard it from the side, she almost exploded, what, you guys want to cut down peach blossom trees!

"Elder Sister Empress, don't you..." Liu Qinglan was so anxious that her tail was about to be exposed, return my love!At this moment, Little Fairy Liu was about to faint.

Xie Xuanzhao turned around, shook her hand in a hurry, reassured her, and said in a low voice, "Don't be afraid. Since you brought me to find Peach Blossom, I won't do anything to it."

Only then did Liu Qinglan feel relieved, and then stopped talking.

Xie Xuanzhao noticed her tangled expression, her phoenix eyes flashed darkly, her face was still as calm as water, "I'll get rid of this person first."

Liu Qinglan nodded vigorously, and suddenly found the feeling of backing.

After Huo Qing finished his ceremony and explained his intentions, he picked up the ax on the ground again, and said respectfully: "Empress Empress, I have to follow orders."

After he finished speaking, he straightened up and looked at the two empresses standing in front of the peach blossom tree.

Xie Xuanzhao raised his eyes and said, "No hurry."

Huo Qing paused, with a troubled expression on his face, "Empress Empress, this is an order from above, I must follow orders. The chief guard will come to check later."

"Then we'll wait here for the chief guard to come over, and I'll explain. Huo Qing, how is your wife doing now?" Xie Xuanzhao said lightly, and started a conversation with the other party.

Seeing her standing, Liu Qinglan dragged a big rock doggy, placed it under the peach blossom tree, and wiped it clean with an embroidered handkerchief, "Sister Queen, sit down and talk."

We must save this peach blossom tree!

The Peach Blossom Demon hid deep in the branches and leaves, watching this scene with a smile.It turned out that the willow goblin and the beauty queen got along like this.Let her not move for now, and then see if the empress is really as gentle and kind as she was in the court, and whether she can entrust this little Feifei for life.

So the Peach Blossom Demon didn't move at all, and still calmly let the peach blossoms bloom all over the branches.

Xie Xuanzhao squeezed Liu Qinglan's fingers, "Qinglan, sit down and rest first. I don't need it."

Liu Qinglan scratched her ears, what a shame!

Huo Qing looked at the two of them and thought to himself: My wife is right, this empress takes good care of her concubines.

"You don't need to be restrained. This queen hunter is one of us." Xie Xuanzhao had an ambiguous smile on his lips, looked at Huo Qing who was a little stunned, "Huo Qing, don't you think so?"

Huo Qing lowered his head immediately, and replied: "Yes, Empress Empress. I am very grateful to you, and I am willing to serve you."

Liu Qinglan sat down in bewilderment, while Xie Xuanzhao stood beside her, dressed in fiery red clothes, with a python leather whip wrapped around her waist, with a heroic posture and a very powerful aura.

In an instant, Liu Qinglan felt as if she was pretending to be a tiger, and the worry and panic just now had been swept away.

Huo Qing chose his words carefully, "This one seems to be the concubine Yue."

Liu Qinglan watched her nose, nose, and heart, and sat obediently on the rock, leaving everything to the empress to handle.

"Yes. I went out hunting with her, and found this peach tree." Xie Xuanzhao reached out and touched the trunk, "This tree blooms in autumn, and it blooms so beautifully. I'm afraid it's not an evil tree, but Fu Rui's. A tree is a sign of peace and prosperity, and it is a good omen. So don’t cut it down lightly.”

Huo Qing understood what the queen meant, she wanted to keep this weird peach blossom tree, "I will definitely keep this tree in front of the chief guard later."

Xie Xuanzhao nodded, "It's time to work."

"Empress, my lady misses you very much, and now she has given birth to a son for my little one, and she is at home." Huo Qing summoned up his courage, "I wonder if the empress will..."

Xie Xuanzhao nodded, and glanced at Liu Qinglan who was still ignorant next to him, "I will go to see her with Concubine Yue later."

Huo Qing glanced at the new concubine of unknown origin, and said hesitantly, "She..."

"She's from my palace, it's okay." Xie Xuanzhao said lightly, with a faint sense of oppression in his tone.

Huo Qing felt the Queen's dissatisfaction, and immediately withdrew his gaze from Liu Qinglan, not daring to look any further.

A while later, the chief guard who received the news came in a hurry, and Huo Qing repeated what Xie Xuanzhao said just now.

He is an experienced hunter in the mountains. He has lived in the mountains all year round. He must be more familiar with the taboos and good fortune between heaven and earth than these noble sons who grew up in the capital. I had no choice but to say: "Since that's the case, I will leave it to you to take care of this tree. If anything goes wrong, it will also be blamed on you."

Huo Qing nodded in response, and the matter was over.

Liu Qinglan let out a long sigh of relief, tugged at the sleeve of the beauty queen, and said: "I was really scared to death just now."

Xie Xuanzhao helped her up, and said calmly, "You seem to care about this peach blossom tree very much."

"She's very important! It's..." Liu Qinglan stopped in time, seeing the hunter next to him still staring intently, she quickly shut her mouth and stopped talking.

Xie Xuanzhao understood, pretended not to care at all, turned around and said to Huo Qing: "Now let's go to your house and sit down."

Huo Qing bowed and saluted, and then led them all the way to his residence.

Liu Qinglan looked at this man's back. She had seen him several times before, and he turned out to be a royal hunter, no wonder he lived here all year round.

Just a few years ago, this man suddenly brought back a beautiful lady, and then he seemed to live in seclusion.Because she hadn't seen him for a year or two, Liu Qinglan thought the hunter had moved away, and her impression became thinner.

It was only when I was walking on the road that I remembered it one after another.

Huo Qing's home is in a bamboo forest, a row of bamboo houses, very clean and tidy.

From a distance, I saw a woman sitting in the yard with a toddler around her knees. She was doing embroidery in her hands, looked up at the child from time to time, and smiled softly.

Huo Qing stepped in first, bent down and picked up his child.

Xie Xuanzhao and Liu Qinglan stood at the door, Xie Xuanzhao looked at the happy family of three, bent the corners of his mouth, and said to the ignorant Liu Qinglan next to him: "I often think that the Sangong Sixth Courtyard is far worse than a pair in this lifetime." People come to be happy and happy. It's calming."

Liu Qinglan stared blankly, is this what a human home should look like?

Huo Qing walked over with the child in his arms, and the young woman next to her was surprised, "Empress!"

She walked up to Xie Xuanzhao and bowed first.

Xie Xuanzhao helped her up, "This is not the palace, you don't have to be so polite, just treat me as an old friend."

"Yes, Empress Dowager." The young woman smiled shyly, pointed to the side, and said, "This is my child. If it hadn't been for the empress empress, I would have..."

Huo Qing coughed softly at the side, and the young woman smiled shyly, "Stop talking, come in and have a cup of tea."

Xie Xuanzhao smiled and shook his head, "No, I just came to see you. Seeing that you are living happily now, I am relieved."

The person in front of him is Huimei who was originally from the palace. She was sent to the palace by her family and has been depressed all the time.Later, Xie Xuanzhao made some inquiries, and found out that Huimei had a sweetheart cousin outside the palace, who was a hunter in Huoshan.

Xie Xuanzhao wanted to help her, so he directly sent her out of the palace and removed her from the royal book.At that time, there were many rumors in the palace, all saying that the empress was jealous and kicked out the concubine.

The emperor had no intention of it, and the matter was left alone.

Huimei held the child and watched the empress leave with the woman next to her. She couldn't help turning her head and asked her husband, "Who is that girl?"

Huo Qing said: "I heard that she is the newly named concubine Yue."

"They have such a good relationship." Huimei said enviously.

Huo Qing couldn't help but sigh, "Yes."

Walking out of this bamboo forest, Liu Qinglan led the beauty queen to the peach blossom tree intentionally or unintentionally, she still wanted to form a relationship, and she was thinking about it.

Xie Xuanzhao followed her and asked seemingly casually, "I just went to Huo Qing's house and saw him and his wife. What do you think?"

Liu Qinglan was distracted, immersed in her fantasy future.

She was thinking that if she and the beauty queen formed a small family like the Huo couple, she would definitely give birth to a cub for the beauty queen like that young woman!Give birth to a litter, hee hee...

However, Liu Qinglan suddenly realized a problem, can there be a baby between herself and the beauty queen?The Peach Blossom Demon probably knows this question!

"Sister Queen, let's go quickly, we were interrupted just now, this time you are not allowed to interrupt me again." Liu Qinglan desperately wanted to ask the Peach Blossom Demon, so she went to the Latin American Queen's hand.

Xie Xuanzhao was still not in a hurry, she said: "You haven't answered my question yet."

"What?" Liu Qinglan looked at her in confusion.

"That is, you saw the Huo family together, do you want to be with me like that?" Xie Xuanzhao finally expressed her good intentions. She wanted the girl in front of her to understand what it means to be in love with each other. , What is forming a marriage, what is forming a family, and what is really being together.

It's not ambiguous kissing, it's not flirting sweet talk, and it's not the so-called beauty and seductiveness. These are not the factors that can really decide two people to be together.They share the same mind with each other, have a sense of responsibility to share a family, understand what the two of them will face together when they are together, and are determined to work together to reach the white head no matter what difficulties.

This is the real marriage.

Xie Xuanzhao didn't expect that in the end, those sweet memories and contacts between himself and Liu Qinglan would turn into a beautiful misunderstanding in the end, turning into flowers in the mirror, moon in the water, leaving only a sigh.

At that time, the sweetness was touching, but what she wanted more was the real long time.

Xie Xuanzhao raised his eyes, his expression focused and serious, "Qinglan, do you really understand?"

Liu Qinglan looked at the extremely serious empress, and was suddenly bluffed, not knowing what to say.She lowered her head, touched her hands a little awkwardly, and realized in her heart that the beauty queen might not really want to form a relationship with herself.

but……

Liu Qinglan plucked up her courage and said, "I just want to complete the ceremony of worshiping the boss."

Xie Xuan took a pause, looked at her expectant and pitiful look, and knew that his sudden seriousness had frightened her.

It turned out that he was really begging the boss, it seemed that he was thinking too much.Xie Xuanzhao turned sideways and gave a wry smile.

"You...you don't want to?" Liu Qinglan scratched her ears, a little at a loss.

Xie Xuanzhao's heart was very strong, and he quickly adjusted his emotions. He met Liu Qinglan's eyes, stared at her, and thought a lot.

Under the pressure, Liu Qinglan tried to stay calm, and let her stare at her openly.

Xie Xuanzhao thought to himself: Since she doesn't understand, then I will patiently lead her away step by step, and she will definitely be able to abduct her home and become a daughter-in-law.

Liu Qinglan thought to herself: Although I don't know what the beauty queen is thinking, I must be with her and give birth to her cubs!

The author has something to say: Little Fairy Liu: I have already thought about how to give birth to you, but you are still thinking about how to abduct me back to be your daughter-in-law, are you stupid!

Beauty Queen: ...

Allow Liu Goblin to put her arms around her hips for a while, because she won't be able to laugh later~~~

Ahhhhhh, why did it take so long to make a relationship? I thought I could finish this chapter, but it ended up being four thousand words and I haven't finished it yet. I went back and faced the wall and thought about it! ! !
