Tyrant Whitewashing Plan [Transmigration Book]

The fourth prince has been staying in the palace for a long time under the pretext of recovering from his injuries.

In the beginning, it was indeed because of the seriousness of the injury. Xiao Jining also went to see him when he was recuperating in the Yunyun Palace. The injury was really not suitable for moving. If the wound cracked and aggravated the injury during the movement, and if it got infected accidentally, in ancient times this kind of Where there is no antibiotics, you can only wait for death.

But later on, Xiao Jining didn't quite understand why he refused to leave for so long.

Originally, these days, Xiao Jining is still sticking to the habit of going to the imperial garden to spread food for digestion after meals, so as not to gain too much fat in the deep winter, and go there every day, rain or shine.As a result, when he heard from Jing Yuan that Qiao Xi would also go to the Imperial Garden to enjoy the remnant snow and snow scene in the next few days, although the two of them had never met before, Xiao Jining didn't even want to go after hearing it.But at this moment, another palace official came to tell him that the fourth prince often went to the imperial garden for a while, and he also went today.

Xiao Jining was puzzled when he heard this.

Didn't the fourth prince tell him that it's not suitable to leave the palace because of the slippery road in the melting snow?Wouldn't it be slippery to walk in the imperial garden in the palace?

Xiao Jining just wanted to find out what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of the Fourth Prince.

Therefore, as soon as the palace people came and complained, Xiao Jining went straight to the imperial garden after he went down to court.However, the Imperial Garden is too huge, and you may not be able to visit the entire garden in a day. This is why Xiao Jining walked in it but failed to meet Qiao Xi, so it took Xiao Jining some time to find the Fourth Prince. .

It's just that when Xiao Jining found the Fourth Prince, he discovered something interesting - Qiao Xi was also here.

This is not to say that Qiao Xi and the fourth prince stayed together, one of them was stroking the pipa on the rockery pavilion, and the other was playing chess with himself at the willow stone table by the lake. It is related, but the Royal Garden is so big, why are they the only two who can have such a coincidence, and they both came to Yunyang Hall?

And Xiao Jining is the emperor, the palace people on the way here bowed their heads and bowed their knees to salute, the situation was not small, and he didn't intend to hide his whereabouts, so as soon as Xiao Jining arrived at Yunyang Hall, Qiao Xi and the fourth prince found him.

Qiao Xi immediately came down from the rockery pavilion with her skirt in her hand, walked quickly to Xiao Jining, performed the concubine ceremony properly, and said softly: "See Your Majesty."

Qiao Xi has always shown others with a lenient and rigorous personality and attitude, so her courtesy is naturally beyond reproach; as for the Fourth Prince, in his eyes, Xiao Jining was the one who gave up the emperor's position, so he wanted to take this opportunity to call Xiao Jining and The Seventh Prince turned against each other, but he didn't want to fail. Even if the Fourth Prince didn't give up the throne, he couldn't sit in this position for too long, but the Fourth Prince still refused to accept Xiao Jining as the emperor, let alone have any real respect for Xiao Jining The heart of surrender.Therefore, not only did he not change his name to call Xiao Jining "Emperor", but continued to call him "Nine Emperor Brothers", and every time he saw Xiao Jining, he gave extra perfunctory salutes.

But today is strange.

Although the fourth prince still called Xiao Jining "the younger brother", he gave Xiao Jining a complete courtier's courtesy.

Xiao Jining looked down at Qiao Xi, then at the Fourth Prince, and finally waved his sleeves and said to Qiao Xi: "Get up."

After Qiao Xi got up, Xiao Jining ignored her, went directly to the small stone table where the Fourth Prince was sitting and sat down, looked at the chess game that the Fourth Prince had just played, and asked knowingly: "This game is not finished yet, the four Did brother Huang play chess with Madam Li just now?"

The emperor's concubine and the emperor's brothers played chess together in the imperial garden of the harem. This kind of thing sounds very strange. Although the Great Xiao Guofeng is more open than other dynasties, the harem still does not allow ordinary men to enter except for patrolling the forbidden army. Qiaoxi's reputation would be ruined if word got out that the sister-in-law and elder brother of ordinary people had to avoid suspicion.

If it were any other emperor with a smaller mind, Qiao Xi would probably never want to be favored again in this life.

As a result, Xiao Jining had just finished speaking, before Qiao Xi, who should be the most anxious, could speak, the Fourth Prince immediately explained: "Of course not. I'm just bored by myself, and I'm just playing chess with myself here."

"So that's how it is." Xiao Jining picked up a white piece in the chess box, dropped it on the chessboard at random, and then held the black piece and continued to block the path of the white piece.

Xiao Jining's chess skills are incomparably bad. After so many times, the fourth prince's original good game of chess has been disrupted by Xiao Jining. Seeing this, the fourth prince sat down in front of Xiao Jining and asked him: "Does the ninth brother want to play chess?" How about I play a few games with you?"

"My chess skills are nothing more than that." Xiao Jining smiled, put down the chess pieces and said, "I can't beat Brother Four."

But Xiao Jining changed the subject and returned to Qiao Xi who was silently standing beside him: "But why is Mrs. Li here?"

In the end, before Qiaoxi could make a sound, the fourth prince hurriedly said: "Madam Li, she misses you, brother, and caresses the pipa here. I came here only when I heard the sound of the pipa."

As soon as the fourth prince said this, even Xi Shu, who was always the dullest beside Xiao Jining, noticed something was wrong, and looked at the fourth prince with some surprise.The fourth prince also found that he had said something wrong in a hurry, and his body froze for a moment.

And Xiao Jining likes to say things that embarrass the Fourth Prince: "So Brother Fourth came here after hearing Mrs. Li's pipa?"

The fourth prince pursed his lips and said, "You can also say that."

"I left Madam Li in the cold." Xiao Ji Ning was not in a hurry to deal with Qiao Xi, it was rare to see the Fourth Prince be so low in front of him, Xiao Ji would rather not let him go so easily, "But Brother Si Huang is really very elegant , It's cold by the lake in winter, and my fingers are cold after only staying here for a while, brother Sihuang, you are still seriously injured, yet you can still sit here and play chess with yourself."

Regardless of whether or not the fourth prince and Qiao Xi have anything, they were met by Xiao Jining here, and the two hit each other right, so it was their fault no matter what.Xiao Jining pointed at the pain point with every word and every word, so that the Fourth Prince couldn't answer at all.

Qiao Xi is also considered smart, she will answer whatever Xiao Jining asks, and if Xiao Jining doesn't speak, she will not speak up and explain, so as to avoid making too many mistakes.

In the end, the Fourth Prince took a deep breath and retreated to advance: "What the ninth brother said is that it is cold in winter and it is not suitable to stay by the lake. My injuries are almost healed, so I will not stay in the palace any longer." Now, I will ask the palace servants to pack up their things later, and return to the palace to continue to meditate and recuperate."

The fourth prince is going to take the initiative to leave the palace to avoid suspicion?

However, it is good for him to go out of the palace, and Xiao Jining didn't want him to stay in the palace any longer, so Xiao Jining said: "Then I won't keep Brother Four, after a while it will be New Year's Eve, and then I have to invite Brother Huang to the palace for a reunion Woolen cloth."

"Yes, then I'll go first." The Fourth Prince saluted Xiao Jining again, "The Ninth Brother wears thin clothes, so don't stay by the lake for too long."

Wow, listen to what this guy is saying?

The Fourth Prince, who once wished him to die soon, actually cared about him so politely?

Xiao Jining became more and more surprised, he glanced at the fourth prince, then looked at Qiao Xi and said deliberately: "Okay, but since the fourth prince thinks that I have neglected Madam Li too much, then I will sit here with Madam Li."

The Fourth Prince was choked by Xiao Ji Ning and could not speak when he heard the words, so he could only leave embarrassingly.

Xiao Jining also paid careful attention when he was leaving, and found that his eyes did indeed glance at Qiao Xi frequently.

The Fourth Prince and Qiao Xi hooked up to the point of going together?

Xiao Jining suddenly remembered that when she was in Li Xing Palace, Qiao Xi said that someone forcibly took her body, and she couldn't see the man's face clearly in the dark, but Xiao Jining was the only one who could enter the Roufeng Pavilion at that time.

But I don't know if this is true or not, maybe it was a lie deliberately fabricated by Qiao Xi in order to enter the palace, or the person who forcibly had a relationship with Qiao Xi in Roufeng Pavilion at that time was the Fourth Prince.Xiao Jining had many doubts and speculations in his heart, but when he looked at Qiao Xi, he found that the woman's face was as usual, she was neither guilty nor panicked, she had no fascination or admiration for the fourth prince, nor for him.

Only an unfavored concubine should be cautious, prudent, and in awe when facing the emperor.

"I heard from Brother Si Huang that you were playing the pipa in the small pavilion just now?" Xiao Jining asked her to get up, and sat down with her in the small pavilion on the rockery, and asked her, "So Madam Li can play the pipa?"

Logically speaking, Qiao Xi's family background shouldn't be able to get in touch with an instrument like the pipa, right?She is a miscellaneous court lady who stays in Li Xinggong all the year round and has no place to touch the pipa. How can she play the pipa after entering the palace?

As a result, Qiao Xi's answer was impeccable.

She lowered her head and smiled, and said softly to Xiao Jining: "The concubine only learned from the master of the Qinyin Pavilion after entering the palace, because the concubine often heard that the concubine would play the piano for the emperor to relieve worries. I want to do something for the emperor."

Sometimes Xiao Jining went to Tan Qingxuan's palace under the pretense of listening to her play the piano.And what can the concubines in the deep palace do besides learning some new tricks to make the emperor happy?

Qiao Xi usually does not fight or snatch in the palace, nor is she angry or jealous. She is also very popular among the palace population. Now she smiles and says such pitiful words. If she is an ordinary man, no one will be sorry for her. Sensible, gentle and tempting - of course, the premise is that she and the fourth prince have not met.

Even if it is true that their meeting was just an accident as the Fourth Prince said, it is hard to guarantee that some people will not think too much.

Although Xiao Jining didn't feel it in his heart, he couldn't help but praise her: "Madam Li has a heart."

"As long as the emperor can worry less." Qiao Xi said softly again, "Everything I do is worth it."

Hearing this, Xiao Jining asked her, "Since that's the case, then I would like to ask you about something."

Maybe it was because Xiao Jining had ignored her for too long, the first time she heard Xiao Jining say that Qiao Xi was still a little surprised, she raised her eyes and quickly glanced at Xiao Jining, then lowered her head and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, please tell me."

"You also know that the empress dowager and all the ministers are urging people to draft, but I don't want a concubine to be born before my son-in-law, and I don't want the empress to be too difficult. There are not many concubines in the palace, and you have always known the general idea." Qiao Without Xixi raising his head, Xiao Jining looked at the pearl hairpin on her head, and said slowly, "I said so, do you understand?"

"The concubine understands." How could Qiaoxi not understand?None of the concubines in the harem would like newcomers in the palace. If Xiao Jining really held a talent show, then if only Tan Qingxuan had the problem of picking the best girls, then the meaning would be too obvious. How many people would say that this year's show girls Insufficient in the body, you can choose the show, even if there is no show girl who can really enter the palace, you can still stop the Queen Mother and the ministers.

So Qiao Xi respectfully said: "As long as I can share the emperor's worries, my concubines are willing to do anything."
