assassin

At night, Li Xifan came over with Chan Yi, knelt down in front of Si Lixiao and Fu Ziqin and saluted: "Greetings, Your Majesty, Concubine Qin."

Si Huaning danced and wanted to rush to her adoptive mother, but was held by Fu Ziqin and couldn't pass.

"Get up." Si Lixiao used to dislike Li Xifan, and now he doesn't even want to hear his voice.

Li Xifan got up and stood there with his head buried.

"Li Cairen must know how to be cautious in his words and deeds in the future," Si Lixiao said in a deep voice, "Don't disappoint Concubine Qin's 'hard work'."

"Yes." Li Xifan still lowered his head and blessed the emperor.

"Go down." Si Lixiao waved impatiently.

Li Xifan and Chanyi saluted and immediately left the hall.

"Cailan, take the eldest princess back to rest." Fu Ziqin handed the child to the wet nurse.

Cailan was also blessed, so she carried the princess to the fan palace.

Si Lixiao didn't sit down and glance at the teacup until the eye-obstructing person walked away.

Yufeng immediately made two cups of amber tea and placed them respectfully by the hands of the two masters.

Si Lixiao raised the teacup and said to the maid, "Go and prepare bath water."

Fu Ziqin's eyelids twitched, always having some bad premonition.

In the end, the two of them took a shower together, and Fu Ziqin sat in front of Si Lixiao, with stagnant water in his eyes.

There is no bathtub in Piaoling Palace, so the two of them had to squeeze into the same wooden barrel to bathe.Although the wooden barrel is big enough, if you move it a little, there will always be something missing.

"My concubine," Si Lixiao said while leaning on the bathtub, "I sent the palace maid away on purpose, and won't my concubine wipe my body?"

That's right, there were only the two of them in the room, and Fu Ziqin couldn't help but regret that he didn't have a sharp weapon in his hand at such a good opportunity.

Resigned to his fate, he went around behind the emperor and picked up a cloth towel to wipe his back. Fu Ziqin exerted all his strength, wishing to rub his back with a layer of skin.

The emperor hissed and said in displeasure, "Do you think I'm a cowhide?"

Fu Ziqin rolled his eyes, the strength of his men was a little weaker.

"Well," the emperor snorted in satisfaction, "I don't seem to have bathed with my concubine before."

Because during the two years we stayed together, he was almost pregnant and should not go into the water. Even when he was not pregnant, he only wanted to assassinate, so there was no time to play with him.

"This bathtub is not bad," Si Lixiao closed his eyes slightly, "But it's more convenient to have a bathtub."

"Why bother?" Fu Ziqin said, it would be too pitiful for the craftsmen of the Si Dynasty to start construction with a single sentence.What's more, if there is a bath, I'm afraid they will not be able to escape the fate of bathing together in the future.

"It seems that Concubine Ai still prefers to be closer to me." Si Lixiao teased.

Fu Ziqin fell into the water covered in chicken skin, why doesn't this person know what it means to be ashamed?

This side gave him a rough wipe, and Si Lixiao asked Fu Ziqin to step forward and use Tao Yi to scoop up water to pour over his head.He originally wanted to wash Fu Ziqin's hair, but the water was poured too far, and all of it was washed down on Fu Ziqin's face.

Si Lixiao looked at the hair that didn't seem to be soaking much, and put Tao Yi aside with an innocent face.

Fu Ziqin wiped his face, found a cloth towel and wrung it dry to wipe his eyes in frustration.

This bastard must have done it on purpose!

Holding the cloth towel, Fu Ziqin calmed down and said, "Your Majesty, I will do it myself."

Si Lixiao hurriedly handed Tao Yi to Fu Ziqin, and stood back alone.

After bathing and cleaning himself, the emperor twisted his hair and waited for Fu Ziqin to come out of the bath together.

"Your Majesty stayed in Piaoling Palace for days, are you afraid that Concubine Jing will be dissatisfied?" Fu Ziqin tried to make a final struggle.

"She dares." The emperor seemed rather unhappy when he mentioned this person.

It seemed that Concubine Jing couldn't help him either, so Fu Ziqin could only shut up silently.

When the concubine was mentioned, Si Lixiao began to complain, "The same group of ministers today, they are in a hurry to invite Zhenguang to choose a beautiful girl. In the end, they just want to stuff their own daughter into the palace, and he can do it well in the future. A king."

Now knowing that the emperor is not close to women, Fu Ziqin said with some malice: "Your Majesty's harem is indeed empty, why not welcome a few newcomers so as to extend your Majesty's heirs."

Si Lixiao looked at Fu Ziqin's back, stretched out his hand and slowly turned him around, and said with sharp eyes like a poisonous snake: "For the matter of continuous heirs, it is good to have a concubine."

If the other concubines heard such words, they would cry, Fu Ziqin twitched the corners of his mouth, watching the emperor's arms bound him like chains.

"Give birth to me as soon as possible." Si Lixiao's face was distorted in the heat, "I don't want to hear those ministers gossip anymore."

In a trance, Fu Ziqin didn't know whether he should cry or laugh, "I gave birth to a dragon son, and then what?"

"And then?" Si Lixiao moved forward abruptly, "And then I will have children for me, many, many children!"

Fu Ziqin listened to the childish tone, but couldn't find his own voice with his arms around Si Lixiao's neck.

In other words, as long as he obediently becomes a sow that only knows how to give birth, the emperor doesn't mind raising him.

Fu Ziqin sat neatly in the hall, and began to sort out many clues in his head.

He doesn't know where to start by himself, and he still needs a leader.

Li Xifan brought Si Huaning over, saluted and said, "I have seen Concubine Qin."

Si Huaning also bowed immediately, "I have seen my father."

"Excuse me." Fu Ziqin helped his daughter up, and Li Xifan gave him a "hush" look.

Fu Ziqin frowned, it seemed that the emperor was still worried, and the palace was full of eyeliners.

"Let's go to the garden," Fu Ziqin said suddenly, "Yesterday, I was called back by His Majesty after walking for a short while."

"Yes." Li Xifan replied, his indifferent expression could not tell whether his proposal was right or wrong.

Li Xifan walked in front with Si Huaning and Fu Ziqin in his arms, followed by a dozen or so nurses and guards.

Fu Ziqin's back felt cold as they had never seen such leisure in the past.

After walking for a while and sitting down in a pavilion, Li Xifan asked Si Huaning to play by himself.

Fu Ziqin met her eyes, but still didn't get any information.

"I'm tired of raising Hua Ning these days." Li Xifan smiled lightly.

"There's no such thing as being tired." Fu Ziqin felt bitter. He was clearly Hua Ning's biological father, but he was like an outsider.

"I told Hua Ning that you should be filial to your father," Li Xifan's eyes seemed to change, "It is necessary to wake up every day."

"It's not necessary." Fu Ziqin waved his hands hurriedly.

"It should be." Li Xifan had a sharp look in his eyes.

Only then did Fu Ziqin come to his senses, and said after a pause, "That's all."

Si Huaning squatted on the side of the road and looked curiously at a small cluster of wild flowers that did not belong to the royal compound. Fu Ziqin's eyes were fixed on the delicate child, and his heart was a little shy.

Was it too cruel for Hua Ning to become a tool of their revenge and help assassinate his father at such a young age?

"Your Majesty? Your Majesty?" Li Xifan called out several times.

"Why do you even call me that?" Fu Ziqin smiled wryly.

"Ma'am," Li Xifan sighed slightly, "You have to get used to it, it's still a long time."

"Yes," Fu Ziqin's heart was like ice spreading, "The days are so long..."

The emperor stayed in Piaoling Palace almost every night, and only returned to his palace to rest occasionally until Fu Ziqin became pregnant again three months later.

These days, Si Huaning did visit his father every day, but he didn't seem to send any news.Until one night when the emperor did not arrive, Si Huaning took a purse and said: "Father, mother heard that father is happy, so she specially embroidered a purse for father with her own hands, please accept it."

These words must have been taught by Li Xifan. Fu Ziqin took the purse and squeezed it, but there was no change on his face.

"Thank you mother when I go back." Fu Ziqin said with a smile.

"Well," Si Huaning nodded, took out the same purse from his little clothes and said, "Mother also embroidered one for Hua Ning, and mother said that when younger siblings are born, they will also embroider purses for younger siblings."

"Really." Fu Ziqin smiled, and involuntarily caressed her belly with her free hand.

After talking with her daughter for a while, Fu Ziqin fell asleep on the grounds of being tired.

In the dead of night, Fu Ziqin secretly took out Li Xi Fanxiu's purse and opened it, and it really contained a text message.

"Ziqin:

All the guards and attendants around you are the emperor's eyeliner, even if the jade fennel is not credible, remember to burn this letter after reading it.

Now that I am wearing a sinful body, I can't use it, and I have tried to contact him many times but have been blocked. I am afraid that the emperor has become wary.However, Qishang successfully sent a letter a few days ago, saying that there are descendants of our clan beside the king of Daobeijiang. After Xue Yang brought the young master's son to him, the child was adopted by the king of Beijiang.Knowing that he is the blood of the King of Kangnan, the King of Northern Xinjiang adopted him as his son, so he may be of use to us in the future..."

Fu Ziqin's heart was shocked. The other twin of the king of Northern Xinjiang was actually the child of King Kangnan and the young master. His Yi Heng and the young master's child became brothers...

I hope that the two children will stay in northern Xinjiang and not come back, so that they will not be involved in this vortex of revenge.

"The Empress Dowager's Yong'an Palace was originally an important place for communication, if you can enter it, you will definitely have a breakthrough.

Ziqin, don't reveal your flaws when you are beside the emperor, give birth to a child with peace of mind, and extend some time for us.If there is something important in the future, I will find a chance to tell you again, please remember to take care of yourself.

Xi Fan pen. "

After reading it, Fu Ziqin got out of bed secretly, put the letter into the lantern and burned it, then tiptoed back to the couch and lay down.

There was no change in the flat lower abdomen, Fu Ziqin lightly put his palm on his stomach.

Son, since you were born for revenge, don't blame your father for being ruthless.

Conceived in October, Concubine Qin gave birth to the emperor's eldest son, Si Yiang, who was crowned prince the next year, and the emperor held a banquet to celebrate the amnesty of the world.

In another two years, Concubine Qin gave birth to a princess named Princess Zhiyi.The emperor did not allow the minister to play the imperial concubine Qin as the queen, and the emperor still did not agree to the imperial concubine.

In the next two years, King Gaochang colluded with Sichao Guiyuanjiao to rebel, but was annihilated by General Tiance and Tuyuhun.

In the same year, Admiral Tiance returned to Beijing to report on his duties. He wrote that his eldest son was seriously ill and wanted to take him back to the imperial city for medical treatment, and the emperor agreed.
