The lady of a good match

Gives a very desolate feeling.

For the first time, Xi Xie knew that the imperial palace was not all resplendent and luxurious, but also had such a secluded side...

There are not many guards here, only the palace guards patrol once a quarter of an hour, and the maids and servants are almost invisible. Xi Xie also heard from the palace people before that the surroundings of the cold palace are cleaned regularly, unlike other places. It is cleaned every day.

Bypassing a rockery and passing through a long corridor, a vermilion gate came into view in front of it. There was no temple name on the forehead, but a big black font forbidden word.

The vermilion mottled palace gate has been opened, and there is only a young-looking and thin servant with a dull expression waiting outside the gate.

Chu Xiang didn't intend to go in, and he told Xi Xie to go in with him after explaining things to the attendant impartially. The attendant came up and wanted to carry something for Xi Xie, but Xi Xie refused with a smile, and walked in with them by himself.

Until the door of the cold palace was closed again, Chu Xiang gave Xi Xie a complicated look before turning and walking away.

The size of the Lenggong Palace is not much different from other palaces. There are main halls, side halls, and gardens, but the furnishings are old and simple, the gardens are overgrown with weeds, and the objects are all old.

In addition, because of the lack of popularity, the smell of decay can be smelled in the air.

Since ancient times, the Imperial Palace and the Lenggong Palace have not been good places. In the past, many concubines who were punished to enter here committed suicide. Some of the old things of those who committed suicide were not disposed of.

The attendant led Xi Xie to a cleaned room in the main hall, saw Xi Xie put down the things, and came forward to salute with a dull expression:

"The slave's name is San'er, and the servant will take care of it during the time that the empress is here. Naturally, this place cannot be compared with the Xiande Palace. I hope the empress will know."

San'er looked about sixteen or seventeen years old, with handsome features, a thin head that only reached Xixie's shoulders, and looked malnourished.

Seeing him staring at him with sympathetic eyes, Xi Xie suddenly found it funny, no matter how you look at him, he must be more pitiful than himself, so he nodded after thinking about it:

"San'er, right...well, I know, you don't need to wait on a daily basis, and you don't need to keep watch at night. You just need to go to the imperial dining room on time to get three meals a day and prepare hot water. You can do everything else as usual. "

Hearing what he said, San'er's expression softened a lot, and he nodded:

"Thank you, Madam, for your compassion."

Now the weather is getting colder and colder at night, if you are on vigil, you must not toss the dead.

Seeing that he understood, Xi Xie turned around and took out a square jewelry box, and handed it over:

"San'er, I will trouble you during the time I'm here."

Inside were two night pearls the size of pigeon eggs. They were of high quality and valuable. They were given to him by Helian Chou. Over the years, Helian Chou had rewarded him with many such valuable objects, including gold and silver jewelry, pearl jewelry, shining Sophistication is what women like.

When he was packing up his things just now, he deliberately took a lot of jewelry, which was to be distributed to the people in the cold palace, but he didn't expect that there was only San'er alone, and San'er was not a woman, so jewelry was not easy to give away, so he could only give it to He is Ye Mingzhu.

He is considered to be a phoenix now, and there are some rules that need to be understood, after all, he doesn't want to be stabbed in the back secretly, there are too many things in the deep palace where servants frame the master.

Three years after the episode【23】

San'er looked at him in surprise, but subconsciously reached out to catch it and opened it to look at it. When he saw what was inside, his face changed, and he closed the lid again and knelt down in fear:

"Thank you, Madam, for the reward..."

The corner of Xi Xie's mouth raised:

"Get up, if you are sensible, I will naturally not treat you badly."

He didn't pay much attention to these things, and it was good to be able to use them. Moreover, San'er didn't seem like a deep-rooted person in the city, so it might be quite helpful to him.

San'er nodded repeatedly when she heard the words:

"San'er knows, San'er will be obedient, try to serve your empress well..."

Xi Xie saw that he was much more energetic than before after collecting the things, and instantly felt that he was even more pitiful, and thought for a while and said:

"Okay, it's getting late, just do what you have to do, Ben Gong is alone."

"Yes, the slave will leave."

San'er withdrew, but knocked on the door again after a while, Xi Xie answered and let him in, and found that he was holding a small porcelain bottle in his hand, with a slightly embarrassed expression.

Just as Xi Xie was about to ask, he heard him say:

"Your Majesty, this is a potion for reducing swelling and relieving pain. It was given by an imperial doctor in the palace before. It is very effective. Here it is for you..."

After finishing speaking, he took a careful look at Xi Xie's swollen face.

"Oh?"

Xi Xie was a little surprised by his kindness, touched his still sore cheek and took it:

"Thank you."

This guy is really good-natured, a child can be taught.

"The slave retire."

After delivering the things, San'er left without staying or talking much.

Xi Xie closed the door and locked it, put away his things and hid them, checked the room carefully, and then went out to look around the entire cold palace to understand the basic situation.

Dead air, deserted, no one cares, people around after losing power stay away, the Leng Palace is such a place, people with weak hearts will collapse sooner or later after staying here for a long time, no wonder the concubines who are thrown into the Leng Palace will be heartbroken, and some even go crazy Silly suicide...

As the sun was setting, San'er came back from asking for food from the imperial dining room. There were two bowls of rice and three vegetarian dishes, and the rice and vegetables were both cold. It was already early winter, and the taste of cold dishes and rice was really not very good.

The real low tea and light food are completely different from the previous treatment in Xiande Hall.

San'er put the food on the low table and stood aside awkwardly, explaining in a low voice:

"The meal in the cold palace is just like this, please ask your empress to take care of it..."

Concubine Xian, as the only concubine of the king and the biological mother of His Royal Highness Rui, once collected thousands of favors and envied others, but now she is thrown into the cold palace, but there is nothing special about it, hey...

However, even for His Royal Highness Rui's sake, the emperor will take the empress back to the Xiande Hall sooner or later.

"It's okay, just get used to it, I'm not that delicate."

Xi Xie waved his hands openly, and asked him to sit down and eat together.

"No, Madam, let's eat..."

San'er refused at first, but after Xi Xie insisted again and again, he had to sit down obediently, and also took out his own ration, a bowl of porridge and a steamed bun.

Xi Xie felt distressed in his eyes. Under normal circumstances, the food of the people in Helian Palace is not so bad. I finally know the reason why San'er is so thin, and I don't know what mistake he made to be punished here... …

But now is not a good time to ask, wait a few days and ask again.

As night fell, after preparing hot water for Xi Xie to take a bath, San'er lit the lights. Compared with the bright lights in Xiande Hall, the dim lights in the cold palace made people feel depressed.

San'er lit up all the lamps that were allowed in the cold palace, and then knocked on Xi Xie's door and said:

"The weather is getting colder, Madam, go to bed early at night, there is no charcoal fire in the cold palace, there are only two quilts, go to bed early and get warm early."

Xi Xie was wiping his wet hair, when he heard this, he went to the door and replied:

"Understood, you should also step back and go to bed early."

"Yes."

After San'er agreed, he left, walked to the next room and opened the door to enter. Although the empress did not ask him to keep watch at night, he would wait peacefully next door.

Xi Xie sighed softly and walked back to the bed, and patted his forehead helplessly. Because he was worried that the man would spoil him, he came here without the slightest resistance. He didn't know how long he would stay here. What should I do if I never come?

……

At the same time, in He Lianchou's bedroom, the person who had rested for half a day at noon woke up and was sitting on a chair listening to Chu Xiang's report that Xi Xie had entered the cold palace.

He Lianchou rested his elbows on the table with a cup of tea beside him. From just now, his pretty face was as cold as a layer of ice.

After Chu Xiang reported the situation, He Lianchou did not give any instructions or answers. Helplessly, the loyal minister who had waited for a long time had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask again:

"My lord, forgive me for your boldness. I want to know, what mistake did your mother make to make you so angry?"

He has followed the king for so many years, and this is the first time he has seen the king so angry because of a single person. However, he asked all the palace people in the Xiande Palace, but no one knew what happened. I was sent to the cold palace, what happened...

After a while, Helian Qiu looked over with low eyes:

"Chu Xiang."

Chu Xiang bowed and said, "My minister is here."

Helian Qiu:

"Do you still remember when Gu asked you to arrange Si Ye to enter the palace of Tianshu Kingdom?"

"..." Although Chu Xiang didn't know why he asked this suddenly, he thought for a while before answering:

"remember."

After that, he carefully recalled and stated the situation at that time.

"Well," He Lianchou nodded after hearing this, and asked again:

"When the Yan family asked Xi Xie to follow Si Ye, did you check out his details?"

"No," Chu Xiang frowned and shook his head:

"Because the Yan family is the savior of His Royal Highness Ye, and Xi Xie is the maid of the Yan family, so I didn't investigate, and the situation at that time was not easy to investigate..."

He was first caught by Yan Luo at the beginning, and Si Ye's entry into the palace as a proton was also negotiated under such circumstances. He was completely incapable of investigating others.

"It's also..." He Lianchou raised his hand and rubbed the center of his brows, "At that time we were more passive..."

"Well," Chu Xiang sighed remembering the situation at that time, and then asked:

"My lord, what happened? Concubine Xian... What happened to Xi Xie?"

He Lianchou clenched his hands tightly, rarely showing an embarrassing and resentful expression in front of his courtiers, he struggled for a moment and said:

"Xi Xie is a man."

"Huh?" Chu Xiang was taken aback, "This...how could..."

Xi Xie is a man?How did you become a man...

Seeing his stunned look, Helian Qiu added annoyedly:

"Gu Ye only knew that he was a man, blame him for being too cunning and pretending too well!"

"..."

Three years after the episode【24】

Chu Xiang recovered from his gaffe. There were so many flaws that he didn’t know what to say anymore. It’s fine for him to be blind. However, it took five years for their king to find out that his concubine was a man...

Even if I didn't know the situation in the past three years, but the king has already stayed in the Xiande Hall so many times, sharing the same bed at night...

Could it be that their king was so used to being pure-hearted and ascetic because of his priesthood that he couldn't tell the difference between a man and a woman?

From Chu Xiang's ever-changing expression, He Lianchou probably guessed what was going on in his heart, and explained angrily:

"What kind of expression is that on your face? I didn't know it before because I didn't officially let him sleep... I only found out last night. I can tell the difference between men and women."

Chu Xiang hurriedly apologized after hearing the words:

"My minister is rude."

After a while, he asked again:

"Then did the king ask why? Was Xi Xie faked, or was he a man from the beginning?"

"He was a man from the beginning, he was the man of Zhen, and Jing Mo was the leader of Zhen..."

Helian Qiu told Chu Xiang exactly what Xi Xie had confessed to him.

"I see……"

Chu Xiang suddenly realized, and immediately said:

"Since this is the case, His Royal Highness Ye and Yan Luo have already achieved a positive result, and there is no point in pursuing it any longer. Please don't get angry and hurt yourself. The Yan family is also very careful for the safety of His Highness Ye. Most people can't afford to hire someone who is evil. , besides money, there must be connections.”

In fact, he felt that it would be great to have a master of poison staying by His Royal Highness Rui's side.

Helian Qiu gritted his teeth:

"If it was just like this, Gu would naturally not want to kill him! He would even thank him, but he..."

Speaking of the latter part, the angry and embarrassed man couldn't continue, he bit his broken lip hard, blood oozes out again in a short time, and his mouth tasted fishy and sweet.

Seeing him like this, Chu Xiang's expression changed:

"What's wrong with him? Did he use the power of Zhen to secretly harm Helian?"

"No, Helian is now a vassal state of Tianshu Kingdom, what else can we deal with..."

He Lianqiu was so angry that he raised his hand and waved the teacup on the table and smashed it to the ground. Chu Xiang heard his voice colder than ever before:

"Gu just said that last night he went to bed..."

"..."

Chu Xiang couldn't react at first, thinking why the king was still angry when Xi Xie served him... The next moment, a flash of light flashed in his heart, and he suddenly understood when he saw Helianchou's expression of embarrassment and anger, and instantly closed his mouth and bowed his head for a while. knelt down:

"Please... please calm down the king."

So that's the case...Xi Xie must be courting death.

No wonder the king couldn't get up tonight to go to the morning court. When he came back from the Xiande Palace, he ordered the concubine Xian to be thrown into the cold palace and then closed the door to rest for a day. Such a thing happened. Xixie was not broken into pieces on the spot. He has a strong background.

Naturally, He Lianchou didn't want such things to be known, but Chu Xiang was his confidant, so he had to tell him about such a serious matter, and he had to pay more attention to the situation in the cold palace. Naturally, knowing Xi Xie's identity, he couldn't be like that anymore. It was as casual as before.

"..."

Chu Xiang knelt on the ground with his head down and dared not get up. Wang was so angry and embarrassed at this moment that he didn't know what to say.

But there is one thing that he cares about. He remembered that the king was not too drunk last night. With the strength of the king, if Xi Xie didn't want to, it would be impossible for Xi Xie to succeed...

Moreover, there were people guarding outside the hall, but the king didn't call for them. Could it be...

Could it be that the two pushed half and half to the back and the king suffered a disadvantage?

Chu Xiang felt that this was not impossible. After all, since Wang often stayed in the Xiande Hall, Wang and Xi Xie looked at each other differently, obviously with love.

Even if you love Xi Xie as a woman, you still love Xi Xie, don't you?

Therefore, if the relationship between the bed and the bed is strong, it seems quite normal to be taken advantage of by Xi Xie by taking advantage of drunkenness.

The sudden change made Chu Xiang couldn't help thinking wildly in his heart. If someone else bullied the king, he would definitely be furious. Their king cannot be desecrated.

But now that person is Xi Xie, thinking of Xi Xie's usual interaction with the king, he is strangely not feeling angry...

The thoughts in Chu Xiang's mind became more and more outrageous, and he made more and more associations, and he heard Helian Qiu coldly say:

"Get up, what are you kneeling for? The person who should kneel is in the cold palace."

"Yes."

Chu Xiang came back to his senses and got up and stood aside with his head bowed. After carefully observing Wang's expression for a while, he asked:

"What is the king going to do with him?"

Helian Qiu turned his head to the side angrily:

"What can I do? Zhen's background is deep, he can't be killed, and he has to be served by someone who beats the disabled..."

Before thinking of a way to punish, he can only temporarily throw people into limbo.

"..."

Chu Xiang looked at him for a while and silently lowered his head.

Wang's reaction at this time was clearly more shame and anger than resentment, and the appearance of such emotions showed that... Wang didn't hate Xi Xie deeply, but had a little affection for Xi Xie, but he didn't know what to do with Xi Xie who offended him that's all...

Wang Neng didn't draw his sword and cut people on the spot after being bullied like this. Apart from worrying about Zhen's background, there was also a certain feeling for someone that Wang himself hadn't noticed...

What should we do?Should I instigate the king to severely punish Xixie, or...

Seeing that Chu Xiang bowed his head in silence and didn't give him advice as usual when discussing things with him, He Lianchou asked him irritably:

"What advice do you have for dealing with Xixie?"

Chu Xiang thought it over and answered:

"After all, this matter is the king's private matter. I don't dare to say much about the harem, and I don't have any good suggestions... However, if the king is overwhelmed, I will meet him to see if Zhen's people are strong. As powerful as the legends are.”

In order not to expose the fact that Xi Xie is a man, the punishment of Xi Xie can only be carried out secretly, and the fewer people who know, the better.

"Yes," Helian Qiu nodded:

"Then you should teach him a lesson for Gu. From now on, you should keep an eye on Leng Gong. As long as you don't die or become disabled, you can do whatever you want. In short, don't make him feel better."

When Xi Xie showed his true colors, he clearly noticed the gap in strength between them. He was not Xi Xie's opponent, and of course, he didn't bother to fight against such a disciple.

Chu Xiang nodded:

"Wei Chen obeys."

Look, their king really just lost his temper, otherwise he would have ordered a secret lynching...

He Lianchou let out a long breath:

"Okay, don't tell anyone about this for the time being, and don't let anyone with a heart come close to the limbo."

Xi Xie was cast into the cold palace, and outsiders saw it as a concubine who fell out of favor with him, and there must be someone who wanted to take the opportunity to deal with Xi Xie, so they had to watch.

It's not that he doesn't want to let Xixie be humiliated, it's just that once someone investigates, the secret will be easily exposed, and if it affects Rui'er, it will affect Helian's future situation, and the gain outweighs the loss.

He wished he could peel that daring bastard alive, but compared to the overall situation, he could bear with it until he found a better way to torture Xi Xie.

After He Lianchou finished his explanation, he asked Chu Xiang to retreat. When Chu Xiang retreated behind the screen, he stopped and said through the screen:

"If the king is not feeling well, you can take another day off tomorrow. There is nothing serious in court. Your health is important."

These words should not have been said by him, but the instigator should have cared about them, so he could not say them face to face, lest he would lose face to the king.

"I'm fine, I'll get up on time tomorrow."

He Lianchou gritted his teeth and replied, Chu Xiang was worried that he would get angry again, so he responded and went out.

"boom--"

"boom--"

"boom--"

As soon as the door was closed, He Lianchou slammed his fist on the table a few times with shame and anger on his face. If Chu Xiang turned back at this time, he would definitely see him blushing with shame and anger.

On the third night when Xi Xie was thrown into limbo, Chu Xiang came here, avoided San'er and sneaked into Xi Xie's room.

Just in time, Xi Xie, who was wearing a black robe, came out of the bathroom in the house. His hair was draped over, his belt was tied casually, and his chest was half open.

Sharp-edged facial features, firm and flat chest, although good-looking, male and female faces are also heroic but not feminine at all, completely different from the beauty face in makeup.

Xi Xie was on par with Chu Xiang in strength, and he didn't expect anyone to come to him at this time, so he was more relaxed. He didn't notice Chu Xiang entering the room immediately, so he was stunned for a while before responding Come and say hello:

"Guard Chu? I don't know what advice I have for coming so late."

Chu Xiang is the king's number one confidant, so it's not surprising that the king will definitely tell him, but what does it mean to come here in the middle of the night to check?

"Young lady, stay safe."

Chu Xiangpi said something with a smile, deliberately biting the word "Niang Niang" very hard, completely different from the previous attitude, and put his hand on the hilt of the sword after speaking, an obvious hint.

"Did the king call you here?"

Xi Xie asked, walking towards the bed while talking, and then neatly took out a sword from under the pillow, turned it around in his hand and held it in a posture of gathering momentum.

Chu Xiang snorted coldly:

"The king said that you are a scorpion, so I came here to ask for advice."

There was a smile on the corner of Xi Xie's mouth, but his eyes had already sunk, he clenched the sword in his hand and asked again:

"He really sent you here?"

That man really wanted to kill him?Are you really ruthless?

Chu Project Guang stared at him sharply:

"You offended the top, offended Tianwei, the king asked me to deal with you, shouldn't it be?"

The disappointment in Xi Xie's eyes flashed away, and his voice became cold:

"I thought he'd come over in person."

"The king doesn't want to see you now!"

Chu Xiang replied, and then he let out a cold shout and swept his long sword out of its sheath.

Xi Xie didn't dare to be negligent, and also drew out his sword to meet him, and the battle was about to break out.

In the not-so-bright room, there was a flash of swords and swords, and there was a frightening sound when the blades collided. There were dozens of rounds between the flashes and flints. The screens, tables and chairs in the room were also smashed to pieces. It became a mess in an instant.

Then, with a loud collision sound, the two retreated at the same time, and the first round was evenly matched.

Three years after the episode【25】

At the same time, retreating is considered an intermission, Xi Xie praised:

"As expected of the king's number one guard."

The defense is very strong and considerate, while the attack tends to seek victory in a steady manner without taking risks easily. This is a typical guard swordsmanship.

Chu Xiang also reciprocated courtesy and said:

"Zhen's assassin really lives up to his reputation."

Quick, precise, ruthless and tricky, the top assassin's swordsmanship moves straight to the vitals, with a strong murderous aura, if he was a little slack just now, Xi Xie could knock him down with one blow.

Although it was only a brief confrontation, Chu Xiang knew that if it was really a fight to the death, he must be the one who was killed.

Because the current Xi Xie only uses the sword and does not use hidden weapons. Hidden weapons are the assassin's trump card. The poisoned hidden weapon seals the throat with blood, and even the gods cannot save it. With Xi Xie's strength, it is too easy to harvest lives.

They are all testing each other, going all out and leaving a way out.

Xi Xie smiled confidently:

"Guard Chu, you can't kill me."

"I know," Chu Xiang replied, "I didn't come to kill you, I just came to vent my anger on the king."

Wang Du said that he could neither kill nor maim, and he did his best under these two conditions.

Xi Xie seemed to hear the meaning of ridicule in his words, and couldn't help raising his eyebrows:

"Then I trouble you to go back and tell the king that if he hits me in anger, I will never fight back. I will let him beat me until his anger subsides."

"Think beautifully."

Chu Xiang replied angrily, raised his sword again and attacked, and said while attacking:

"The king said, except for death and disability, let me teach you as much as possible..."

Not to be outdone, Xi Xie fought back fiercely:

"You can't let me die or let me be disabled. The king also has a heart, so I ask Guard Chu to teach me a lot..."

He misunderstood just now, the man didn't mean to kill him, he was just angry...

"..."

The two fought back and forth, chatting while fighting, and then stopped to compliment each other. Chu Xiang explained He Lianchou's meaning in all directions, including Wang's contradictory attitude. Xi Xie had something in his heart. At the end, the mood suddenly became lighter.

Except for the bed, most of the things in the room were dismantled, and the screen across the bed was destroyed. The sound of collisions and things breaking was intertwined, which was particularly abrupt in the cold palace in the dead of night.

Until an hour later.

"..."

Xi Xie swung his sword vigorously and swept across Chu Xiang's face, then stepped back lightly with his foot, watching the man getting more and more excited, he said helplessly:

"Okay, when are you going to fight with me..."

Even if they fight until dawn like this, they won't be able to tell the winner, and he doesn't want to use hidden weapons, because hidden weapons are poisonous.

After Chu Xiang withdrew his sword momentum, he also retreated from his attack range and laughed:

"If I don't show some achievements, it's not easy for me to go back and return, isn't it, after all, the king is very angry."

It has been a long time since he had fought so heartily with anyone. As the king's personal guard, the king has been staying in the imperial city, so he doesn't have many opportunities to use his best. No one in the personal guard is his opponent. You have to let them train with your subordinates.

It's not necessary in front of Xi Xie, he will go all out without worrying about hurting Xi Xie, the more he fights, the more addicted he will be, and he can't stop, and there will be fun to pass the time in the future, he will carry out the king's orders very well.

Xi Xie looked at the mess everywhere:

"Does the demolition of the palace count as a victory?"

After speaking, he put the sword back into the scabbard and said:

"Just go back and say that you hurt me, and I will accompany you tomorrow night if you continue to come over."

Seeing that he refused to fight, Chu Xiang had no choice but to put away his sword, and teased:

"Do you think the king will come over if I go back and tell you that I injured you?"

"No," Xi Xie thought for a while and shook his head:

"He is angry now, and he won't come to see me unless I die."

Chu Xiang crossed his arms and looked at him:

"You still have self-knowledge."

Wang won't come here easily, but I don't know if he will be worried...

"After all, it's my fault, he should be angry..."

Xi Xie sighed helplessly with a disappointed expression, and suddenly asked:

"How is the king's health?"

For the past three days, he has been worried all the time, for fear that the man would be unwell and make him angry.

Chu Xiang snorted softly:

"The king's body is fine, but his mood is really bad. You are clean here, and people in the court are panicked."

"..."

Xi Xie was silent.

Chu Xiang looked at him for a while and couldn't help but said:

"You said there's nothing wrong with being a good princess. The king even thought about making you a queen, but you want to become a prince in delusion, and you're going to kill yourself."

If Xi Xie was the one who succumbed, Wang probably wouldn't be angry...at least not like now.

Xi Xie was silent for a long time this time, before raising his head to look directly at Chu Xiang's examining eyes and answering:

"If you love him, you will want to possess him. What's more, you should know the king's physique."

Chu Xiang was surprised when he heard this:

"You...you want to..."

Xi Xie looked at him seriously and said:

"He asked me to serve in bed formally, probably because he also wanted to have another heir. You should be clear about this, but I am a man..."

"..."

Chu Xiang was silent. Indeed, on the night of the incident, he even told the king that he hoped that he would have his own children...

Seeing his frowning, Xi Xie ignored him, and after a pause, looked at him solemnly again and said:

"Chu Xiang, His Highness Rui's physique is the same as Wang's. Wang once said that if he had a choice, he would not want His Highness Rui to inherit the throne, but let him become the future High Priest."

The high priest has supreme power and prestige, and will not be controlled by others, and no one dares to offend easily.

This was what Helian Chou told him when they were chatting by chance. That person hoped to completely change the way Helian's royal family is inherited, but those with special physiques could not inherit the throne.

Imagine that as a king, many rights will be handed over to the prince around him because he wants to conceive and have children. How dangerous it is for the royal family can be known by referring to the previous Helian national conditions.

Rui'er has the same physique as Si Ye, and was not the candidate for the crown prince in Helian Chou's mind. However, in order to prevent Helian's special blood from being lost, that person still chose Rui'er.

Later, Si Ye wrote in a letter saying that according to Professor He Lianchou's method, he and Yan Luo's third baby was not of a special constitution, and those who heard the news breathed a sigh of relief.

When hearing He Lianchou's exclamation, Xi Xie had some dangerous thoughts in his heart...

Then, after he formally embraced Helian Qiu, let him sincerely hope that the thoughts in his heart can come true, if the king can give birth to an heir because of him, it would be great...

After a long time, Chu Xiang suddenly sighed and said:

"Xi Xie, if the king knows what you are thinking now, even if he doesn't kill you, he will probably drive you out of Helian."

Xi Xie smiled:

"I don't think you'll tell him..."

Chu Xiang was actually helping him, and he had confirmed it from just now to now.

"Huh!" Chu Xiang snorted angrily, and after watching him for a while, asked seriously:

"Do you think the king likes you?"

Xi Xie thought about it and nodded:

"Just think of me as being passionate. At least I don't think he will really hate me. Some things have to be based on feelings. I'm sorry I can't tell you..."

That person clearly enjoyed being hugged by him, hugged him softly and begged coquettishly, if he really hated him from the bottom of his heart, it was absolutely impossible.

"I see……"

Chu Xiang didn't ask any more questions, then turned around and walked towards the door. When he got to the door, he turned around:

"Then try your feeling, I will go back to my life and come back tomorrow night."

Xi Xie smiled and didn't say anything, tonight was probably a small surprise...

After Chu Xiang left, the surroundings became quiet, deadly quiet, and after a while, San'er knocked on the door outside, and Xi Xie walked over to open the door after deliberating in his heart.

"Your Majesty, you didn't..."

San'er was just about to ask if he was okay, when he looked up and saw Xi Xie in men's clothing, dumbfounded on the spot...

"fine."

Xi Xie replied with a smile, looked at him condescendingly and ordered:

"Come in and talk."

"……Yes……"

San'er tremblingly followed him into the room, seeing the mess in the room, he was so frightened that his feet softened and he knelt down on the ground, with cold sweat breaking out from behind, he looked up at Xi Xie who was sitting on the bed with Erlang's legs crossed and holding a sword , uttering two words with trembling lips:

"... Your Majesty?"

Xi Xie nodded: "Well, what?"

San'er swallowed hard and asked tremblingly:

"You... are you a man?"

Xi Xie lowered his head to look at himself, then glanced at the women's clothing put aside, and spread his hands:

"As you can see, I'm a man."

After speaking, he glanced at the women's clothing set aside.

San'er paled:

"That...that..."

The empress is a man, he immediately thought of His Highness Rui...

Seeing his completely stunned look, Xi Xie found it a little funny, but deliberately told him in a serious tone:

"Only Wang and Chu Huwei know about this matter, do you understand what I mean?"

"... Your Majesty, please forgive me..."

San'er immediately threw herself on the ground, her body shaking like chaff:

"The servant will not tell anyone, absolutely will not tell... I beg your mother to spare my life..."

How damn he found out the deadly secret.

"..."

Xi Xie said nothing, just looked at him quietly, in fact, the less people know about his real identity, the better, not only for He Lianchou, but also for Rui'er, so since you intend to let San'er know, you have to do it It's a good deterrent, so as not to cause trouble in the future.

These days he also inquired about San'er's situation, knew that San'er had family members outside the palace, knew that the reason why San'er entered the palace was for his family, and that the monthly salary he got in the palace had to subsidize the family... In this way, Much easier.

Seeing that the people in the seat were silent, San'er continued to beg tremblingly:

"Your Majesty...I will definitely not tell this secret, please forgive me..."

"My lady..."

"..."

The voice of begging and begging has already brought a crying tone.

After a while, Xi Xie saw almost the same, put the sword aside and said:

"Get up first. Fortunately, you are the only one here. As long as I don't tell you, the king won't know..."

After kowtowing vigorously, San'er wiped away her tears and stood up, sobbing and saying:

"Thank you, ma'am, as long as my majesty spares my life, this servant is willing to be your cow and horse..."

Xi Xie smiled but wasn't smiling:

"I'm not short of cattle and horses. Why do I need you? Let's leave this kind of thought to your family. They need you."

San'er shook his shoulders and lowered his head again:

"Please tell me clearly..."

Xi Xie sighed helplessly before saying:

"I have been in the palace for many years, because there is no one around me who can talk to this secret. San'er, how about being loyal to me? You don't need to be a cow or a horse, you just need to be loyal. You never know this secret. You and yours The family will have a good time, would you like to?"

He didn't intend to be so scary, just for the sake of the future, he must have someone who can talk by his side, the 17-year-old San'er is a good seed, worth cultivating.

San'er understood what he meant, and knelt down again, but unlike the trembling just now, she replied firmly:

"The slave is willing to be loyal to the empress."

Although it is said that he has no choice, but as a handyman's valet, he can get the master to ask for his allegiance, and it will be easier for him to leave the cold palace in the future.

A child can be taught, Xi Xie raised his hand:

"Get up."

San'er regained her spirits:

"Thank you, Madam, the slave will definitely not disappoint Madam."

"I'll wait and see."

Xi Xie put the sword away, turned around and took out a box containing women's jewelry and gave it to him:

"There are things in it that I don't need on weekdays. You take them out of the palace, and if you have any difficulties at home, please tell me."

With both kindness and strength, candy is naturally indispensable after the whip. He doesn't like this method, but this method is the most effective here.

San'er took the box and kicked it into his arms, then bowed to thank:

"Thank you, ma'am, the servant will remember."

"..."

Things were almost handled, Xi Xie yawned a little sleepily:

"It's getting late, you go back and rest, come back tomorrow to tidy up
