The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 43
Everyone was stunned for a long time before they came back to their senses. Eunuch Fu next to the emperor laughed sharply: "Your Majesty, Mr. Wan's dance just now... Tsk tsk, it's like a fairy descending to the earth..."

The corner of the emperor's mouth was raised slightly but he didn't speak. He glanced at Gu Yunfeng who was standing aside. Seeing him standing aside, he lowered his head lower as if admitting his mistake.

Xiao Jun looked at the lotus lanterns in the lake again, her eyes became colder and colder, and she asked in a deep voice, "Did she ask you to do this?"

Gu Yunfeng hurriedly knelt down and said, "Damn me, I know it's wrong to do this, but I still have a few words to say.

The emperor has neglected the noble lady Wan Wan for so long, deliberately making her think that you don't remember her, the little master of Yaohuaxuan was favored and often bullied in the past, and you didn't give her an explanation for Jin Yun's death, and made her feel wronged, no Is it all to stimulate her, let her see the reality clearly, and see the difference between being favored and not being favored?
Now that Mrs. Wan has already thought about it, why doesn't the emperor go along with the flow and let her be fulfilled? "

The emperor frowned and asked: "You didn't tell her these words, did you?"

Gu Yunfeng hurriedly said: "Wei Chen has never been a talkative person, but Mr. Wan wants to get close to the emperor, but there is no one else to ask for help, so I entrusted Wei Chen."

The emperor nodded slightly, "Get up, since your task tonight has been completed, then go back first."

Then he turned around and said to Fu Quan: "Show Yinfengxuan, since nobleman Wan has tried her best to make me smile, if I don't go and see her, wouldn't she think that her hard work will be for nothing and she will be very sad?"

Gu Yunfeng felt a little embarrassed, and bowed back, thinking that Chen'er thought she was plotting against Junxin, but in fact all of this was just walking on the path he had planned for her.

He knew that sooner or later she would have such a day, so even though he was shocked by her dancing just now, he was not actually surprised that she would do this.

Yun Feng sighed lightly, it seemed that there was some sympathy in it, being liked by such a black-bellied emperor, how could she escape from his palm?

At this moment, Yinfengxuan was already busy, and Jin Xin was busy serving ginger soup to the hand stove, and made the charcoal fire in the brazier more vigorous.

Qingchen sneezed loudly several times wrapped in the quilt, sniffled and said, "How was my dance just now? Did you pay attention to the emperor's expression?"

Jinxiu smiled while blowing the ginger soup in her hand: "The emperor is dumbfounded, it's not in vain for the young master to practice hard for so many days, even the servants think that the young master is really shocked tonight."

Qingchen took the bowl of ginger soup and drank it down. Feeling warmer, he quickly changed his clothes, "It's also thanks to your good flute. If you can succeed in one fell swoop, the cold tonight will not be in vain." , I'm afraid...wasting all my efforts..."

Jin Xin put away the dance clothes, and said with a chuckle: "My lord's dance tonight even fascinates women. If the emperor is not tempted, it can only mean that he...is not normal..."

Qingchen couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard the words, "You girl, if the emperor hears these words, you will have to be punished for a felony."

Jin Xin turned around and was about to refute, when she heard Xiao Yinzi say in the outer room in a flustered and surprised way: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Emperor is here."

As soon as Qing Chen came out to pick him up, he saw that Xiao Jun had come in with Fu Gonggong, so he led everyone to kneel down, "Concubine pays respects to the emperor, the emperor is blessed and safe."

Xiao Jun bent down to help her up, took her by the hand and entered the inner room, Eunuch Fu behind him hurriedly gestured to take them out.

Qingchen was a little nervous, even though she knew what her dance would bring, she still couldn't face it calmly.

The emperor sat on the warm couch, held her in his arms, held her hand and asked, "Have you warmed up yet?"

Qingchen blushed, lowered her head and said in a low voice: "I'm not cold."

"Why are you shaking if it's not cold?"

The emperor's tone was a bit teasing, and he said with a smile: "You dance well, but you are a bit stupid. You are already weak, and you are dancing outside wearing tulle in the cold winter months. What if you get cold again?"

Sitting in his arms, Qingchen was a little cautious, and the strange smell of ambergris made her resist slightly, but she had to force herself to adapt, "The concubine is stupid, the emperor laughed."

Xiao Jun pinched her chin with one hand, looked at her with deep eyes, and asked for a long time: "Really... have you let go?"

Qingchen's face instantly turned pale as snow, thinking that he really knew.

Qin Zishuo was not killed by her, it can only show that the emperor is magnanimous, he broke free from his arms and knelt down and said: "Concubine...concubine didn't have any other intentions before, but she was ashamed and humble... dare not extravagant hope..."

"It's just that you are ashamed and humble, you don't dare to expect to be favored by me, do you?"

As if he was covering up something for her, he stretched out his hand to pull her up, and hugged her into his arms again, "It's okay, I can wait for you to untie your knot, when you really want to stay by my side and really adapt With the life in this palace and the ability to protect yourself, I will definitely give you the honor and favor that no one else can match."

Qingchen's heart trembled slightly, and she looked into his abyss-like eyes in surprise, and seemed to see some kind of firmness and pampering in those eyes that she couldn't understand.

She was full of suspicion and panic and said: "The concubine is just a little nobleman, and she doesn't have any extravagant ideas, as long as she can see the emperor often, she will be satisfied."

She was telling the truth, at least for the time being, she hadn't thought about where she would sit in the future, as long as she could see Xiao Jun often, and at critical times, it would be enough to save the lives of herself and the people around her with the help of the emperor.

Xiao Jun didn't care about the reason for her panic, she just smiled lightly and said, "If you miss me in the future, please send someone to the Imperial Study Room to say something, and I will come to see you if I have time."

Qingchen smiled slightly, and lowered her head shyly, "I don't dare, the emperor has so many state affairs to deal with, so my concubine dare not disturb the emperor for no reason."

Xiao Jun saw her unconscious shyness when she lowered her head, it was a natural expression when she was unguarded, like a begonia drooping, soft and gentle.

It was the first time he had seen such an elegant lady, she was also a woman as soft and beautiful as water after removing that layer of icy defense.

He slowly leaned over, Qingchen suddenly realized what he was going to do, she grabbed his sleeve with trembling hands.

At this time, the emperor suddenly pushed her away and stood up, as if he was very reluctant to give up, but he still forced himself to turn his back to calm down, then straightened his clothes and said: "Now is not the time... There are still some memorials that have not been approved, and I will come to see you another day."

He strode away without looking back, Qingchen sat up slowly, for some unknown reason, he seemed a little fortunate in his heart, but also a little disappointed.
