The Emperor's Favorite: The Beauty Disturbs the World

Chapter 159
Chang Xi stood at the front, and behind her were maids of different sizes from Wenxin Court, and with the combined efforts of everyone, the dragon was released into the sky.

Seeing that it was Chang Xi's kite, Li Longji clapped his hands and laughed, "No wonder it was so unexpected, it was your idea!"

Chang Xi smiled and handed the rudder of the kite to Mei Er, and walked towards Li Longji to Shi Shi. Ying Ying bowed down and said loudly: "I am not worthy to use a dragon kite, this kite is specially made for Your Majesty. May the dragon bless your Majesty with good fortune and longevity, and my Tang Dynasty will last forever and prosper forever!
Li Longji happily held her hand and said, "Chang Xi, how many more surprises will you bring me!"

Chang Xi smiled, "It's my concubine's honor to make His Majesty happy!"

Concubine Li and the others felt sullenly unhappy when they saw Chang Xi gaining the limelight again.Princess Yuzhen said: "Wu Zhaoyi, why does your dragon kite have the body of a centipede? It's too strange!"

"Princess, if it's all dragon's body, the kite may not be able to fly, so I use the body of a centipede. Also, you see, the silk thread for flying the kite is different from other kite threads. It is mixed with extremely tough cicada silk so that it will not break !” Chang Xi explained, pointing to the giant dragon Yin Yin in the sky.

"Then what is the disc in the hand of your personal maid Meier?" The queen was quite suspicious, but everyone had already noticed that thing.

Wei'er said timidly: "It looks like the steering wheel of a big ship!"

"The rudder wheel?!" Although the concubines of the palaces often took pleasure boats, they never paid attention to the rudder wheel in the hands of the servants.

Chang Xi laughed and said: "The body of the kite is too huge, and the usual binding strings are not placed in time and it is easy to let go of it, so this concubine came up with this idea!"

"Wu Zhaoyi is really smart!" The newly appointed Beauty Xiao applauded.

"Where did Wu Zhaoyi get a skilled craftsman to make such a complicated method? Where did the cicada silk come from today?" Li Fei asked with a smile, and there was a murderous intent in the question.

Chang Xi said without hesitation: "A few days ago, the Empress was ill. When His Majesty Xue Wang came to visit the palace, the concubines asked Xue Wang for it."

Li Longji said with a smile: "Only the fifth brother has such a strange thing!"

Concubine Li saw that Chang Xi calmly admitted that she had contact with Li Ye, and that Li Longji didn't care, so she shut up angrily.

"Your Majesty, the concubine held the silk thread for too long just now, and worked very hard. Can you go over there to rest for a while?" Chang Xi said softly, stroking the sore left arm.

Li Longji nodded, and said softly: "Go!" Turning to Mei'er, he said: "Take the rudder and show me, I will release this dragon with my own hands!"

Meier smiled and offered the steering wheel to Li Longji, walked slowly to Chang Xi's side, and held her shoulders.

"It seems that His Majesty likes it quite a lot. Zhaoyi has been busy for so long!" Mei'er chuckled lightly.

Chang Xi said: "Look at Liu Meiren's kite, it's really unique!"

Mei'er looked around and saw the hibiscus kite in Liu Meiren's hand floating very beautifully in the air. Her little maid took a pair of golden scissors and said to her, "beauty, cut it! Let this kite be a substitute for training!" Go to the Tiangong, and ask the gods to bless you for the safe birth of your next little prince, who will be named the ninth concubine!"

"Don't talk too much! I'm not allowed to mention my pregnancy to others, do you hear me!" Liu Meiren was really happy in her heart even though she scolded the maid.With a light cut of the golden scissors, the hibiscus flower floated into the sky along the east wind.

The concubines of the palaces had almost finished playing, and they took out the scissors one after another, letting the kites convey their long-cherished wishes.

The newly promoted Shangguan Jieyu stood too close, and when her green luan kite with the same embroidery skills as her body was flying around, it entwined with Concubine Li's Qu Feng, and she was about to drag Concubine Li's Qu Feng to on the ground.

Concubine Li said displeasedly: "My sister can't fly a kite! It's blowing my palace!"

Shangguan Jieyu was so frightened that she hurriedly pulled the kite string, but under nervousness, it became tighter and tighter.Seeing that she had ruined her good intentions, Concubine Li was about to get angry, when Feng Lu persuaded her, "Mother, the harmony between the phoenix and the phoenix is ​​a good omen!"

Concubine Li raised her head and saw that Qing Luan and Qu Feng were entwined together, like two lingering birds, she was really interested, so she calmed down.

Only then did Shangguan Jieyu breathe a sigh of relief, thinking that if she offended His Majesty's favorite concubine on the first day she entered the palace, wouldn't that mean she would die without a place to die!
Liu Meiren flew the kite and walked towards Chang Xi with small steps. Chang Xi saw her coming this way, and stood up to greet her with a smile. It also flew up, that place happened to be downhill, it didn't matter if this one staggered, and rolled down towards Chang Xi with a gurgling sound!

"Ah!!" Everyone froze in fright, and Chang Xi also stood there dumbfounded at the foot of the slope.

Li Longji was the first to react, and ran down the slope, and then the concubines hurriedly twisted their kite strings, followed Li Longji and ran towards Liu Meiren. During the run, you pressed my skirt for a while, and for a while When you touched my hair, it made a big fuss.

Chang Xi looked at Liu Meiren holding her stomach on the ground and yelling, "Ouch! Ouch!", bloodstains meandering down the bottom of her skirt.

"My child! My child!" Liu Meiren cried while clutching her stomach, so frightened that everyone dared not speak.

"Wu Zhaoyi, you were the closest to Liu Meiren at that time, why didn't you bring the palace maid to hug her!" Concubine Li stood beside Liu Meiren's bed in Cuiwuju and glared at Chang Xi.

Feng Lu sighed and said: "If Wu Zhaoyi is willing to rescue in time, the child in Liu Meiren's stomach will not disappear for no reason!"

"Give me back my child! Give me back my child!" Liu Meiren grabbed the brocade mattress under her body with both hands, tears streaming down her face, and she yelled while staring straight at Chang Xi.

Li Longji sat by the couch without saying a word.

The three newly promoted concubines all hid behind the crowd anxiously when they saw such a big incident caused by the beautiful Flower Festival.

Chang Xi looked at the crazy Liu Meiren on the bed and said in a deep voice: "I didn't harm your child, and I didn't even know you were pregnant!"

Liu Meiren was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that her pregnancy was not yet recorded in the records of the Shang Palace Bureau, and no one except her and Li Concubine knew that she was two months pregnant.

The queen said: "Since Liu Meiren is already pregnant, why didn't you tell me, maybe then there will be no disaster today, and this matter has something to do with you!"

Liu Meiren was left speechless by the Queen's question, and said in a low voice for a long while: "The concubine wants to announce the good news to His Majesty after the fetus is stable, but who knows... who knows... Your Majesty! You must make the decision for my concubine!"

Yu Zhaorong said: "My sister really missed this matter, she should have informed Shang Gongju sooner in the future!"

"What's the use of saying these words at this time! But how could Beauty Liu roll down the hillside!" Hearing Yu Zhaorong's words, Li Fei snorted and sneered slightly.

Liu Meiren sobbed: "The concubine is inconvenient to be pregnant with the child. After flying the kite for a while, she feels tired. Seeing Wu Zhaoyi drinking tea there very leisurely, she wanted to go to have a rest, but when she walked down the hill, it happened that Wu Zhaoyi Yichao's concubine waved, but the concubine didn't pay attention and tripped over the kite string under her feet...the child just..." Before the words finished, he began to cry again.
