The seventh princess insists on letting me eat soft rice

The Seventh Princess's similarly expressed heartfelt words, like morning bells and evening drums in the sky, beat on Lian Liejin's heart.

Her blood boiled all over her body, watching the red lips that were close at hand kept opening and closing, just about to respond to the princess's question.

But Gao Jingxi smiled slightly, turned around and sat back, lightly raised her jade hand, and brushed the hair that had fallen down just behind her ears, "But I don't know how to tell the truth from what you said, so you don't have to say it." Because no matter what Whether it is true or not, she will be suspicious because she believes it.

But this time, Lian Liejin never let go of Gao Jingxi, she chased the seventh princess and sat down, her slender fingers ran across the princess's black hair, and pinched the woman's delicate chin.

"Your Highness, do you just run away every time? Dare to ask but dare not listen to the answer, don't you?"

Gao Jingxi felt the warm and delicate touch of this person's fingers, and her slightly aggressive eyes.She slowly touched Lian Liejin's fingers, turning back and forth around the knuckles.

"This palace is like this, what can you do to me?"

Princess Seven's hands were as soft as that fine cream. Seeing her sly and coquettish smile, Lian Liejin quickly withdrew her hand, subdued all her expressions, and turned into that cold and exile-like appearance again. , "His Royal Highness's hands are not very regular."

"Oh, are your hands regular?" Gao Jingxi's mouth curled slightly, his eyes sparkling, "You look desolate and distant, why are you so presumptuous every time you carry someone behind your back?"

Lian Liejin's voice sounded like pure wine that had been placed for thousands of years, with a strong floral fragrance, "Your Highness, why do you know me so well that I really want to give you a little reward."

"I think it's because we're the same kind of people. We're both stupid enough to think that thousands of people are inferior to ourselves."

Being ridiculed by Gao Jing, Lian Liejin seemed to hear the blood in her body, and she was singing loudly, hiding under her polite, distant and smiling appearance, it was the most direct disdain for others .

With one's own heart and ability, how can others be equally noble.

"So, how does Your Highness want to distinguish my authenticity?"

The light outside the carriage flashed across Gao Jingxi's face, allowing Lian Liejin to see the scorching light of restraint and reason in the eyes of the Seventh Princess.I only heard her say:

"Lie Jin, I don't know. But I and we will have a long time to verify."

Looking at Gao Jingxi's serious and slightly confused expression, like the quiet water flowing deep, Lian Liejin knew that this woman understood her thoughts of being with the light and the dust.

The room was quiet, the carriage slowly drove through the long street, the wheels rolled over the snow, making a "squeak" sound.

Thinking of what Lian Liejin said, Gao Jingxi smiled slightly, looking at her bright eyes, "I want to take Xiao Jiu to the palace to meet my mother first, do you want to go with me?"

Just wanted to answer and go together, but Lian Liejin recalled the previous situation, the queen empress urged her to have a baby with His Highness at every turn, who knew that she and Gao Jingxi had not yet consummated their marriage.

In order to avoid any further bad remarks, Lian Liejin immediately sternly refused, shaking his head again and again, expressing that it would be better for the mother and daughter to talk about their family relationship together, and he should not just join in the fun and get involved.

Regarding the matter of having a baby, the two of them tacitly agreed, Gao Jingxi also seemed to blush a little, nodded hastily, and ordered Ayou, who was driving the car, to take Lian Liejin back to the Princess Mansion first.

"No need, Your Highness. It's a cold night and it's cold. I'll get off the car now and take a walk back home. The earlier you and Ninth Sister enter the palace, the earlier you can come back."

After finishing speaking, Lian Liejin raised eyebrows at Gao Jingxi regardless of the carriage was still moving, and laughed wantonly, then turned over and jumped directly from the car window onto the street.

"Lie Jin, didn't you say that you would reward Ben Gong?"

This sentence was blown away by the cold wind in the flying snow, and Gao Jingxi didn't know whether Lie Jin heard it or not.

Hearing the noise in the carriage, Gao Lan happened to turn her head to see this scene, opened her mouth in surprise, and asked, "Sister, brother-in-law, she seems to be very skilled? I heard people inside and outside the palace say that she No way, no way. How could they say that without conscience?"

Gao Jing laughed but said nothing, this must be the credit of the Duke of Yan's house, as for whether it is out of the idea of ​​protection, or has other thoughts, it is not known whether all of this will finally allow Duke Yan to get what he wanted .

"Why are you still acting like a child, with all your likes and dislikes on your face, weren't you angry with your brother-in-law just now?"

"Didn't I just say that my brother-in-law sincerely praised me for being good-looking, regardless of the past, can I, the majestic Ninth Princess, continue to obsessively look down on my brother-in-law like that foolish world?" Gao Lan arched happily He got into the car and sat next to Gao Jingxi, "And I can also be the image spokesperson for my brother-in-law, it seems very fun."

"Well, you don't have any playmates in the south, so you can follow your brother-in-law to look around when you come back this time." After Gao Jing Xi thought for a while, she sighed slightly. A moment is a moment.

Gao Lan's sincere and bright smile just hit Gao Jingxi's heart. Her ninth younger sister was weak and sickly, trapped on the sickbed, and was sent to the hot and humid south for recuperation.

Those who followed my sister were probably only some old-fashioned people, and it was rare to see her so happy.Thinking about it this way, Lian Liejin is really like a ray of sunshine, not only illuminating herself, but also making Xiao Jiu so happy.

Gao Jingxi suddenly felt warm in her heart, because the haze of going to the palace gradually disappeared.

In the palace, the queen was anxiously waiting for the arrival of Gao Jingxi and Gao Lanyin, her cough became louder and louder until Zhao mama rushed into the palace in a panic.

"Ma'am..."

"But Xiao Jiu and Xi'er are coming?"

"It's not the nine princesses, it's the emperor. Your Majesty, she's going to the Changchun Palace soon, with an extremely ugly face. I'm afraid the emperor will get angry, and if something goes wrong, he will blame you."

"What's so angry about her?" The queen's pale cheeks due to illness showed two red clouds, "everything is just her own fault. A few years ago, she used military force for her own political achievements. Now it is even more so. It's absurd to actually believe that traitor's words and want to build some kind of longevity platform."

"Empress, your majesty will come in later, you can't say that, it will disturb your majesty's interest and provoke thunder and wrath."

The queen shook her head, "Your Majesty is too absurd these days. If I persuade her too much, she will definitely turn her down, but as the lord of the six palaces, I must persuade you. Go out and stop Xi Son, don't let her run into her empress and make her feel unlucky."

Zhao Momo led the order out of the Changchun Palace and ran all the way to the palace gate, praying to meet the Seventh Princess' car and avoid them colliding with the emperor.

In the Changchun Palace, the bright yellow dragon robe could not conceal the emperor's gloomy complexion. Her nose, which was high and straight when she was young, now looks a bit sharp and sinister.

"Queen, I heard that your Liu family bought another piece of land in the south?" The emperor directly passed the queen's hand serving tea, and sat on the soft bed by the window, looking around with an unfriendly expression, "The Liu family is indeed very rich and expensive, Let the widows be envious."

"The concubine bought it for Xiao Jiu. She is far away from Changyong, and her food, clothing, housing and transportation are not as good as those in the palace. The concubine can only use her own private house to subsidize her."

Hearing the queen mentioning their daughter, the emperor's expression softened slightly, "According to the time, Xiao Jiu should arrive at Changyong, right? In a few days, the princes and daughters of Gui Qi will also be here soon, and I will definitely give them Xiao Jiu has chosen a satisfactory husband-in-law."

The queen sneered twice in her heart, thinking that the emperor had no money and wanted to sell his sons and daughters so that he could ask Gui Qi for a dowry.Back then, the emperor was able to bend and stretch, and was always frugal. Now that the hero is getting old, he likes others to sing his praises more and more.

Then again, she had already sacrificed the marriage of Gao Jingxi, her daughter, for the sake of power and future. Even if she tried her best, she still wanted Xiao Jiu to marry someone she liked.

The empress lowered her brows, and her gentle eyes made the emperor feel relieved, "I know that Xi'er and Jin'er's marriage was a little hasty. The two of them did not have any emotional basis at the beginning, so they had to be together, but Looking at it now, the two of them can be regarded as respecting each other like guests. I don't think I have treated Xi'er badly."

"Your Majesty, why did you say that? This marriage was also approved by my concubine. Besides, Xi'er's uncle will be back soon, and it is said that there are still many rare items to present to His Majesty."

Hearing that the queen wanted to give him money, the emperor felt even more joyful, "Speaking of which, last time I punished Xi'er, I felt quite guilty. Let Xi'er also come into the palace some other day, and our family will have dinner together. , Fang is like a home."

"Yes, Your Majesty, my concubine thanked Your Majesty on Xi'er's behalf." The queen stood up and saluted, watching the emperor leave with satisfaction after achieving his goal.But she still couldn't hold back the words in her heart, after all, the two of them got married when they were young.More than twenty years have passed by in a flash, even if there is no love between the two, only years and time are left.

"Your Majesty, can Changshengtai really bring people back to life?"

The emperor stopped, turned around slowly, his eyes widened, "What are you talking about?"

"The concubine heard that His Majesty is still taking an elixir of unknown origin, and I am really worried about His Majesty's dragon body." The queen was neither humble nor overbearing, but she looked weak and stubborn, and said with a serious expression:

"Your Majesty, you listened to Concubine Lian's words and built the Changsheng Terrace. Is it really for the resurrection of the long-dead person? Mrs. Yan Guogong passed away due to illness, and now her child is Xi'er's son-in-law. What exactly does Your Majesty want to do?" ?”

"I have the power of the stars, and I have the help of a strange person. Naturally, I will regret it in this life. If I succeed, it will be a happy thing for everyone." The emperor's body suddenly trembled uncontrollably, his face was blue and black, and there were big drops. Beads of sweat trickled down his forehead.She hurriedly took out a black pill from her bosom and stuffed it into her mouth, and then slowly calmed down.

"Your Majesty, this is..." It was the first time for the empress to see the emperor in such a frightening manner, "Is this pill given by Concubine Lian?"

The emperor did not answer the queen's question. After taking a few breaths, a fierce light appeared in his eyes again, "No one can stop what I am going to do. The queen had better not meddle in other people's business, otherwise you will regret it if you harm your children." that day."

"Your Majesty," hot tears welled up in the queen's eyes, "this pill is not good for the dragon's body, can you have it checked by the imperial doctor?"
