Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 495: Lonely Ghost (1)
"Excuse me!" Emperor Xian De didn't help her in vain, he directly passed her and went to sit in the Nuan Pavilion in Xicijian.

The queen didn't care, she still had a smile on her face.

"What kind of happy event did the empress meet, she looks so happy?" Emperor Xian De asked with a faint smile.

Empress Ning touched her cheek and said with a smile: "There is no happy event for my concubine, it's just that I am happy after seeing your Majesty come down."

"Really?" Emperor Xian De was noncommittal, "I have never seen you so happy when I came here before."

The smile on Empress Ning's face finally couldn't hold back anymore, she lowered her head slightly, and said softly: "After all, today is different from the past."

In the past, even if she didn't see the emperor very often, the emperor would still come over on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year, but now, let alone the emperor, he didn't even ask, so it was naturally different from before.

"Oh, is the empress blaming me?" Emperor Xian De heard the complaint in her words, and asked back with a slight smile.

He didn't feel any guilt towards the queen, the two just got what they needed from the beginning.

She needs the identity of the queen, and he also needs her as the queen to take care of the harem for him, that's all, if she wants anything else, it's overstepping.

Moreover, he was not mean to Empress Ning. The elder brother of the empress's mother's family, he also gave the title, and the younger brother also gave Shi Que, and she was always dissatisfied.

She doesn't even know what the emperor likes or doesn't like, and she never cares about him. She only plans for herself and a pair of children in her heart. How can she expect him to care and respect him?

Not to mention, he still let her take care of the harem, and even when she pointed at the imperial concubine again and again, he gently exposed it, and didn't make her too ugly. What else is she dissatisfied with?
Hearing the coldness in Emperor Xiande's words, Empress Ning shuddered, and quickly suppressed all the emotions in her heart, and said: "The concubine has no such intentions, Your Majesty has misunderstood the concubine."

"That's good." Emperor Xian De didn't say much, and said: "You sit down too!"

Empress Ning responded, and then sat with her on the futon on the other side of the Kang table.

"The empress can speak directly if you have anything to say, I have other things to do, I don't have time to dawdle here." Emperor Xian De said.

Empress Ning said: "The concubine knows that your majesty is busy with many affairs, so she won't waste too much time writing. But there should be time for your majesty to have a cup of tea with the concubine, right?"

Seeing that Emperor Xiande had no objection, she couldn't help but smiled lightly, and said: "Huixin, serve tea to Your Majesty!"

"Yes, empress." Hui Xin replied crisply, holding the tea tray in both hands, and walked over slowly.

As soon as Huixin approached, Emperor Xiande smelled a delicate fragrance, which was refreshing, after smelling it, his head could not help but be cleared.

"Your Majesty, please use tea!" Hui Xin offered the teacup in a polite manner.

A pair of bare hands, with ten slender fingers, glowed with a warm luster like jade carvings, and the fingertips formed a graceful arc, which was pleasing to the eye.

Not to mention, there seemed to be a hook in her voice, making people feel itchy, but her demeanor was extremely serious, she lowered her head respectfully, and did not look at Emperor Xiande more.

Emperor Xian De saw her hands and said in admiration: "What a pair of beautiful hands."

As he spoke, he took the teacup, gently lifted the tea cover, and the fragrance of tea wafted out. The amber tea soup was pleasing to the eye, and even the temperature of the tea soup was his favorite. With a deep enough understanding, it is impossible to brew such tea.

Emperor Xian De smiled slightly, took a sip, and said: "Good tea, who made this tea?"

Empress Ning had a look of joy and pride in her eyes, and said, "It's the tea made by Huixin, does Your Majesty still like it?"

"Oh? So it's her." Emperor Xiande said as if suddenly enlightened, then put the teacup on the kang table, looked at Huixin with his head down with his long and narrow eyes, and said: "Raise your head, let me see. "

Huixin heard the words, couldn't help but her heart jumped wildly, tried her best to suppress the excitement in her heart, and slowly raised her head, but her eyes were slightly lowered, she didn't dare to look directly at the holy face, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, like a butterfly fluttering its wings , fragile and beautiful.

Yang Yong looked at it from the sidelines and cried out in his heart, no wonder the imperial concubine asked him to look at His Majesty. It turned out that there is such a stunning beauty hidden beside the Empress, and she is the type that His Majesty likes. Even if His Majesty knows her If the status is wrong, I'm afraid she will spoil her too!
Yang Yong took a sneak peek at Emperor Xiande, and found that His Majesty was staring at Hui Xin, with a hint of a smile on his lips, but his expression was a little unpredictable, making it impossible to guess what was going on in his heart, even he who is often seen by the Emperor The people who waited around him did not dare to say that they must understand His Majesty's thoughts. It is already good for him to guess three or five achievements. It is really unpredictable for the Sacred Heart.

However, no matter what, the task assigned by the imperial concubine still needs to be completed.No way, who made him put himself in the imperial concubine's camp!

In the past, he had the intention of taking advantage of these concubines. He would do things for whoever was favored and who could benefit him. Now, he is willing to do things for the imperial concubine. Of course, this does not affect In the case of my own life, such as now.

"Ahem..." Yang Yong suddenly coughed twice, although the voice was not loud, but in the quiet warm pavilion here, it seemed particularly abrupt, and suddenly destroyed the very ambiguous goodwill from the Queen's point of view. atmosphere.

Empress Ning frowned suddenly, and gave Yang Yong a cold look.

It's a pity that Yang Yong didn't take this titular queen very seriously, he didn't feel pain or itching at all, and didn't even look at her.

He believed in his heart that the empress and the second prince would definitely not be able to achieve great things. If so, what was he afraid of her doing?Anyway, these eunuchs are not profitable and don't get up early.

Empress Ning couldn't detect Yang Yong's loose attitude towards her. Unfortunately, she didn't have any power in her hands, and she couldn't control the Supervisor of Rites and Dongchang.

After the second prince ascends the throne, she will absolutely rip him off.

Hui Xin pretended to have just been awakened, and lowered her head shyly. Empress Ning was angry with Yang Yong, and Hui Xin would only be more dissatisfied with it.

It's a pity that she understands how powerful Yang Yong is, even when she died in the previous life, Yang Yong was still in full swing.What's more, he is vengeful and cruel, even when she is the most favored, he doesn't dare to offend him, and even flatters him and honors him, just to let him say a few good words for her in front of His Majesty, so that he can pamper her a lot Second-rate.

Now, she is just a little court lady, so she dare not offend Yang Yong even more.

However, what she didn't understand was, what kind of benefits did the imperial concubine give Governor Yang, to make him help the imperial concubine so wholeheartedly?
