little son-in-law

Cheng'an Palace is the emperor's bedroom in Xiling, the guards inside are different from other palaces, they are directly assigned by the emperor, and the emperor has ordered them to protect the safety of the ninth young master, they weighed it, based on the current emperor's treatment of nine The degree of the young master's obsession, offending the ninth young master is equivalent to offending the emperor, and it is very easy to choose between offending the emperor or offending the noble concubine, so the guards in Cheng'an Palace happily carried Yu Hui before Que Jiuzhan spoke again. After getting out of the warm pavilion, I raised my hand and threw it into the lake.

It was cold recently and the lake was covered with a thick layer of ice. As soon as Yu Hui fell on it, she heard a "click", and a gap opened on the ice. Que Jiuzhan didn't speak, and everyone in Cheng'an Palace pretended to be deaf.Yuhui shouted until her voice became hoarse, and when she found that no one was helping her, she scrambled to stand up, fell a few times, and finally landed on the shore. She didn't dare to provoke Que Jiuzhan any more, and turned her head away. ran to complain.

As Que Jiuzhan expected, Zhao Ningqiu made a special trip to set rules for him today while Que Lingjian was out of the palace. Lady Ligui secretly conceived a dragon heir under her nose, and Que Lingjian raised another man in Cheng'an Palace. Holy pet, no matter which one it is, it is enough to make Zhao Ningqiu restless and suffocate. Lady Ligui is in an abnormal body now, and everyone in the palace is watching her. She dare not act rashly, but the male favorite in Cheng'an Palace, she If I ask myself, I can still teach him some duties that he should keep.

Zhao Ningqiu waited in Xinuan Pavilion for half an hour, but Que Jiuzhan did not come to see her, and she hated this male favorite even more in her heart.

Lady Li covered her mouth and yawned, ordered the maid to give her a hammer, and said to Zhao Ningqiu: "Mother, the Ninth Young Master is so grand, and the empress summoned him. He has delayed for such a long time, and he is obviously negligent on purpose."

Zhao Ningqiu was upset, but she still had a virtuous and virtuous face, and said with a slight smile: "Little sister, don't be impatient, maybe it's just a coincidence that I waited here, and the ninth son is busy, so wait a little longer, if my sister is tired, come first Rest on the bed for a while."

Lady Ligui stroked her obviously protruding belly and said with a smile: "Thank you for your concern, Ma'am, I'm not tired, but this child is always moving around, and there is no time to stop, which makes me very uncomfortable."

Zhao Ningqiu continued to laugh, "What a lively little guy, my sister might be a prince in her belly."

"Does your empress think so? The emperor also said the same thing. The emperor also said that this is the first child in the palace. He likes it very much, whether it is a little prince or a little princess." Blind people can see the complacency, let alone Zhao Ningqiu who is sitting opposite her.

"Really? The emperor still said this? I thought the emperor had never stepped into the harem recently."

Ligui covered her mouth and smiled coquettishly: "Is there such a rumor? How could it be? I am pregnant, and my body is often uncomfortable. The emperor often comes to Zhongcui Palace to talk with me."

Zhao Ningqiu twitched the corner of her mouth, "The emperor is really kind to my sister."

At this time, the maid of Zhongcui Palace brought the anti-fetal medicine and a small bowl of fresh plums. After Ligui finished drinking the medicine soup, she complained of bitterness, and the maid hurriedly brought the plum bowl up. He gently twisted two plums with his fingers and sent them to his mouth, his brows loosened.

"Is my sister better?" Zhao Ningqiu asked with concern.

"You made me laugh. Your Majesty doesn't know the taste of this anti-fetal medicine. It's too bitter. Without these sweet and sour plums, I really can't drink it."

Zhao Ningqiu's face froze for a moment, and she changed the topic: "If I'm not mistaken, my sister's plum is a new tribute from Nan'an Mansion this winter?"

"Your Majesty is well-informed, and you can see it at a glance. I heard that the plum trees in Nan'an Mansion were infested with insects this summer, and the production was greatly reduced. The total tribute this winter is only a dozen or twenty altars. I am the only one in the harem." With these two jars, the emperor also knows that I have a bad appetite, so he likes some sweet and sour fruits. If the empress likes it, I still have some in the palace, and I will send some over to the empress to taste..."

"My sister's heart is mine. Since it is a reward from the emperor, my sister can enjoy it." Zhao Ningqiu's voice was a bit cold.

Mrs. Li is still a bit measured, and she doesn't dare to be very presumptuous. Seeing what Zhao Ningqiu said, she stopped talking. After a brief silence in the room, Yu Hui came in in a panic, "Your Majesty."

Zhao Ningqiu was full of anger, but she bumped into the fire, and then she turned cold and scolded: "What does it look like to cry, let you follow to invite Ninth Young Master, how did you come back with such a virtue?" The winter clothes were wet, with a lot of snow scum, and his face was dirty.

Yu Hui wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes by grabbing the handkerchief, and said with a choked voice: "Your Majesty calm down, it's not that the slaves don't want to invite you, it's because the slaves are humble and unworthy to invite the Ninth Young Master. If the empress wants to see the Ninth Young Master, I'm afraid..."

"Afraid of what?" Zhao Ningqiu asked.

Yuhui pretended to hesitate for a while, with a look of fear on her face: "I'm afraid I have to go there in person."

Zhao Ningqiu was so angry that her face turned blue, Lady Li said: "Where is the rule, the empress is the honor of the noble concubine, and she commands the entire harem, how can she condescend to see a little servant."

"Your Majesty, you don't know something." Yu Hui recounted what happened just now with embellishment.

Lady Ligui exclaimed after hearing this: "It's really wrong, it's wrong, to be so disrespectful to the people sent by the empress, isn't this just disrespecting the empress?"

Yu Hui knew that Zhao Ningqiu hated Mrs. Li, so she didn't dare to answer Mrs. Li's words right now, she just secretly observed her own mother who had a bad face out of the corner of her eyes.

"Since Mr. Jiu is unwell and it is inconvenient to come here, then I will go and see Mr. Jiu. Yu Hui, lead the way."

Yu Hui probably didn't expect Zhao Ningqiu to make such a decision, she was slightly stunned before responding: "Yes, empress."

Zhao Ningqiu got up and looked at Ligui who was opposite, "Since you're here, my sister will go with me to meet the rumored Ninth Young Master."

Que Jiuzhan nestled in the warm pavilion, condescendingly watching Yu Hui go and come back, followed by a group of people in a mighty manner, raised his eyebrows, he knew that today's troubles would not be avoided.

In Zhao Ningqiu's imagination, the male favorite who can confuse the emperor who never pays attention to the matters of men and women, even regardless of his identity, must be a beautiful young man with both talents and looks, who looks male and female. Mo Bian, her body is delicate and soft to the bone, the kind of vixen that makes a man unable to move his feet at a glance, but the man in front of her is so different from what she imagined, wrapped in a white fox fur The man's eyes are clear, the smile at the corner of his mouth is casual and calm, and there is such an unconcealed elegance and dignity all over his body. It is more accurate to say that he is a noble and casual family member than a male favorite. And this age is not right, Zhao Ningqiu thought, although this person looks very young, he must be in his twenties, he should be about the same age as the emperor, and he has already passed the best time to be a pet.

In order to confirm, Zhao Ningqiu tentatively called: "Ninth Young Master?"

Que Jiuzhan smiled noncommittally, and pointed to the two seats beside him, "Concubine Zhao, Mrs. Li, sit." The body crooked on the soft couch had no intention of getting up to greet her.Que Jiuzhan seldom pays attention to people, and his popularity in Cheng'an Palace is not good, but he will not deliberately make things difficult for others, so it is not bad. It is this good popularity that makes a little girl named Mingran stand beside him. The court lady boldly and quietly poked him with two fingers, begging him to be kind enough to give him a little bit of a wink, this is the noble concubine coming to the door in person.

Que Jiuzhan glanced at her, and retracted his fingers with the corners of his mouth stiffened.

"You two...please sit down." Que Jiuzhan changed his words slightly.

Obviously this time the whole person froze, she regretted not being nosy, tried her best to persuade her, she really wanted to shout, but Ninth Young Master added an extra word, what's the use, the meaning is not the same.

"You are bold, you are just a petty boy, what kind of attitude do you have..." Ligui is pregnant now, and no one in the palace will give her face when they see her, even Concubine Zhao Gui is no exception. How could she stand the contempt of a male favorite.

Que Jiuzhan's gaze swept over Ligui's stomach, lowered his eyes, and leisurely flipped the lid of the tea bowl. This kind of reaction was much more irritating than a direct echo. Ligui was so angry that his fingers trembled and he almost fainted.

Zhao Ningqiu made a sound to smooth things over, and pulled Ligui to sit down: "Master Ninth is in poor health, and it's not like my sister doesn't know that you are pregnant now, so don't be angry." She pushed a large plate of plums on the table to Ligui, He said to Que Jiuzhan: "Master Jiu's plums are so fresh, my sister eats a few more to calm down. Master Jiu must not mind, right?"

Zhao Ningqiu greeted him with a smile all the time, but Que Jiuzhan couldn't find an excuse to leave. He frowned and asked the palace servants beside him, "Are there any plums left?"

"The emperor left a lot for Young Master Ninth, and there are still seven or eight jars in the palace." The palace man's voice was not loud, but the warming pavilion was too small, and the other two people present could hear it clearly.

"If the imperial concubine likes it, she can take two jars with her when she leaves," Que Jiuzhan said.

Zhao Ningqiu looked at Mrs. Li, with a decent smile, "How dare you do that?"

"It's not a good thing, it's just a fresh look in winter, you don't have to be polite." Que Jiuzhan just wanted to send people away quickly.

Lady Ligui bit her lips tightly, her complexion pale.

Zhao Ningqiu smiled, "In this case, I won't be courteous to Master Jiu." The purpose of her visit today is to give Que Jiuzhan some eye drops, but this person is born with a kind of aura, he can be arrogant, and everyone deserves it. As if she was obedient to him, she was angry, but the words she had prepared to teach others could not be uttered under this person's indifferent eyes, but she was still very happy to use this person to suppress Ligui of.

The warm pavilion is only this big, and it is only four or five steps away. It is too crowded for three people to sit, so there are only two palace servants inside to wait on it, and the rest are outside to wait on it.

Que Jiuzhan listened to their older sister's address, his head grew big, he found an excuse, and was about to get up and leave. Someone came to report that Emperor Que Jiuzhan had returned to the palace early.

Lady Ligui came here today because of Que Lingjian, there is no reason to be unhappy when she heard the news, "The emperor is back? Where have you been?"

The guard who came to report the letter looked at Que Jiuzhan, who had no special expression, and said, "Luanjia will enter Cheng'an Palace soon."

Hearing this, Lady Ligui stood up happily dragging her skirt. She was sitting on the westernmost side. She thought that if she went around to the east to see the gate of Cheng'an Palace, she would pass by Zhao Ningqiu and Que Jiuzhan. The accident happened when he walked to Que Jiuzhan. His body suddenly lost his balance and suddenly fell out of the warm pavilion.

Although Que Jiuzhan hated Que Lingjian, he still ignored the two innocent lives. He immediately grabbed Ligui's arm, but his body, which had been overly violated by Que Lingjian in the morning, was too weak, which slowed down his speed. Then, Ligui screamed and fell out of the warming pavilion, landing heavily on the lake, bright red blood splashing under her body.
