The Emperor's Favorite: The Beauty Disturbs the World

Chapter 168

Such a frank disregard made Chang Xi bite her lips tightly, and her face became paler and paler.

"Actually, you should understand that the moment you fall in love with me is the moment when I abandon you!" With his hands behind his back, he looked down at the woman in white dress and skirt on the ground very forcefully. As if hurting her heart, he sneered and said: "The man you have always loved with all your heart, married Yuzhen without hesitation. Seeing how harmonious they are after their wedding, you should understand that he has already forgotten about you. clean!"

With trembling shoulders, Chang Xi listened to him inserting words like sharp swords into her heart time and time again. She who had been holding back all this time suddenly raised her head and looked at the indifferent and domineering emperor with clear eyes, "Even if Your Majesty doesn't love me, you can't love me." Give me the respect and love I deserve!"

"Why!" Li Longji snorted coldly.

"Because I'm your cousin!" Chang Xi said these words word by word, but he didn't take his eyes off Li Longji's face.

Li Longji seemed to be shocked by this sentence, his lips moved slightly, he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it, he wrapped his arms around her, hugged her in his arms, and hugged her horizontally.

"What are you going to do!" Chang Xi, who was pale with fright, forgot the rules of respect and order, and shouted loudly to you and me.

Li Longji said coldly: "Don't you want me to give you the respect and love you deserve!" Yan Bi didn't care how Chang Xi struggled, passing through the flowers and supporting the willows. Under the shroud of Qinghui, it was indescribably charming, and such amorous feelings did not reduce Li Longji's anger that came from nowhere.

The lotus in Wenxin Courtyard is in full bloom, accompanied by the breeze sending bursts of fragrance, making people inexplicably drunk in this boundless night.

The door was kicked open by him, and then there was a heavy slam, which hurt Chang Xi's back. Thousands of strands of black silk were spread on the couch, and Meier was so frightened that she stood by the side at a loss, while little Zhao Zi looked down. Looking at the emperor who came out with a flick of his sleeves, he kept silent like a cicada.

"Zhaoyi, are you okay!" Little Zhao Zi carefully helped up Chang Xi who had fallen on the bed.

Chang Xi smiled sadly, "It's okay!"

Mei'er and Xiao Zhaozi looked at each other and smiled wryly, thinking that Chang Xi had offended Li Longji again, but they didn't know that things went beyond the expectations of everyone in Wenxin Academy.But he said that Li Longji didn't go back to the Dragon Hall after leaving Wenxin Court last night, but went straight to the Qinzheng Building, and after some earnest talks, he sent Zhang Jiuling back to the mansion, which made the upright minister burst into tears with excitement.

In the court hall on the second day, all the ministers were discussing who was so courageous to persuade Li Longji. The guards in the Dragon Palace reported that it was Chang Xi who was punished for crimes with money, bluntly said that he had violated the Holy Spirit, and finally moved the Holy One and made him change his mind. Afterwards, after a group of people narrated with embellishments, the whole thing spread like a legend in the harem.

Since then, Wu Zhaoyi's reputation as a virtuous person has been widely spread in the harem of the former dynasty. Not only has he been praised by all the old officials, but he has also been respected and loved by concubines such as Miss Xiao and Shangguan Cairen.

Especially that beauty Xiao, since that night when Chang Xi came to the battle to leave her alone, and saw the poem that Chang Xi left behind on the case, she immediately made her a confidant, and since then she has been confidant to Chang Xi.

Such a result was originally expected by Chang Xi. She felt that she was not as beautiful as Concubine Li, her dancing posture was not as good as Fenglu, and her versatility was not as good as Concubine Mei. If she wanted to take root in Li Longji's heart, she had to find another way. After a few days of thinking, she decided to use Wisdom that other concubines cannot have—that is, political thinking!Maybe those women are better at scheming than her, but few of them are politically savvy. The harem's rule of not intervening in politics has already constrained their minds. Even if they collude with foreign ministers and plan for the crown prince, they still rely on those ministers for their ideas. It has no political foresight.

In this regard, Chang Xi can be regarded as having an inherent advantage. He has read so many history books and understands the various systems of the Tang Dynasty. If he can remind Li Longji of major events, then he will definitely treat him differently and gain Beloved, it is not impossible to knock down Li Fei!
That night, when I thought of this method, I acted out the drama of Tuo Gu's direct remonstrance. Although Li Longji failed to change his mind immediately outside the Dragon Hall, he still went to the Qinzheng Building to apologize to Zhang Jiuling, and went to court as promised. The success of this strategy , Let Chang Xi find a good way to defeat her concubines, which is a good start! Unfortunately, Meier doesn't know the reason of the matter, and keeps chanting Amitabha Buddha to thank the Buddha for letting Chang Xi save the danger this time.

In the next month, Concubine Mei was still favored, but she never interacted with any concubines. Although everyone was annoyed that she favored Liugong alone, since she didn't show up, she couldn't see it!During this month, Li Longji spent most of his stay in the Dragon Palace, and only a few times he went to the Queen's bedroom, but the number of visits to Chang Xi's Wenxin Courtyard did not decrease, which made Xiao Zhao Zi and other maids feel very relieved.

Today is the dog days, and this year's Chang'an City is extremely hot.There were anxious voices everywhere, and the heat waves in the air rushed towards the people hiding in the dormitory like a tide, and the stuffy people couldn't breathe.Everyone, including Li Longji, was sweating hot when they acted, which made Gao Lishi use ice packs to relieve Li Longji from the heat from time to time.

Chang Xi was usually afraid of the heat, so she hid in Xiaomeiren's Xiaoxiang Garden to enjoy the cool air, surrounded by swaying green bamboos and gurgling water, it was like a paradise on earth.

Beauty Xiao saw Chang Xi sitting comfortably on the crescent bench, smiling and looking at the surrounding scenery, the two maids brought sour plum soup soaked in ice, the white jade cup was paired with red and purple bayberry, and ice debris could be seen faintly on it. It really made Chang Xi move his index finger.

Chang Xi picked it up and took a sip, only to hear Xiao Meiren smile and say: "Last time my sister went to the Dragon Palace alone to beg His Majesty, I really made my sister admire me!"

"It's a small matter, why is my sister always talking about it, I'm embarrassed!" Chang Xi drank the sour plum soup unceremoniously.

Xiao Meiren sighed lightly and said: "Pleading for the people, what a trivial matter!"

Seeing that she was about to praise herself again, Chang Xi coughed and changed the subject: "I've seen Shangguan Cairen coming to you frequently these past few days, what's the matter? I'm still getting close to you!"

Seeing Chang Xi asking her, Beauty Xiao sighed, "Sister doesn't know something, so Wei'er is really miserable!"

"What!" Chang Xi's eyelids twitched.

Xiao Mei said humanely: "Wei'er's elder sister, Mengyao, has a higher status than her in the first place, she is a Jieyu! And she is bullying her everywhere by virtue of her status as the first sister!"

"Impossible!" Chang Xi frowned, "Although Wei'er and her were not born to the same mother, they are from the same father anyway, how could this be so!"

Xiao Meiren sneered: "I'm afraid the battle between the concubine and the concubine in the rich man's house is not much stronger than in our harem, besides that Mengyao is already domineering, and now she is even more proud of relying on the big tree of Concubine Li! Dare to win the favor of Liu Meiren and Fenglu, but dare to bully her younger sister!"

"Shangguan Jieyu is so disregarding the affection of sisters!" Meier, who was waiting on the side, was also surprised.

Beauty Xiao sighed: "That's not true! Since the three of us entered the palace, Shangguan Jieyu and I have slept with each other several times. His Majesty loves me, and I came here more often, but that Shangguan is talented, um, That is, Sister Wei'er, who has not been summoned before!"

"How is this possible!" Chang Xi said sternly: "I looked through the history of the dormitory that day, and there was clearly a record of Wei'er being summoned, even though it was only once!"

Beauty Xiao shook her head and said: "Your Majesty was planning to go to Wei'er's that time, but not long after entering, her sister-in-law invited His Majesty over because she was unwell! So much so that Wei'er went from entering the palace to It's still perfect."

"There is such a thing!" Chang Xi put down the white jade lamp in his hand in surprise, remembering the past when Xiao Yu was bullied by his aunt and brother, and said angrily: "Damn it!"

Xiao Meiren didn't expect her to be so angry, she admired Chang Xi's character even more, and said: "The things that His Majesty rewarded Su Ri were also transferred away by Shangguan Jieyu without any politeness, which made Wei'er dress better than a respectable court lady. Might as well!"

"Does the Empress care?" Meier frowned slightly.

Beauty Xiao sneered, and said: "The Empress has been very busy this month. She was already wary of Concubine Li. Now Concubine Mei came out. She really pressed the gourd and floated up the ladle. She couldn't take care of herself. How could she have time to take care of her sisters? Then the empress probably always thinks that the two Shangguan sisters belong to Concubine Li's party, and she would be happy to see them fighting among themselves!"

In the words, although she still called her queen, she clearly felt Xiao Meiren's contempt for her, and Chang Xi didn't know why the queen had offended her, so she said with a smile: "Sister talks about the empress, why does she seem to be angry! "

Xiao Meiren listened, covered her mouth, and said with a smile: "I was spotted by my sister! I still don't have enough concentration."

The maid serving Xiao Meiren smiled and said: "Wu Zhaoyi doesn't know, there are more fun things than the Shangguan sisters! A few days ago, Yuncai came to our beauty and talked about it for an entire hour. Don't leave, our beauty's eyes are swollen from exhaustion, I am really embarrassed, so I asked her, "I don't know what's the matter with my sister?" That Yuncai hesitated for a long time before turning red and said, "The empress thinks that Sister Xiao is a talent , I asked my sister if she would support the empress and give the arrogant Concubine Li and Concubine Mei a good look!'”

"Why did the queen send such a fool to talk to my sister?" Chang Xi laughed, thinking of Yun Cairen's embarrassment of scratching his ears and cheeks, it was really funny.

The maid said: "Isn't it! Our beauty politely declined on the spot! But she was so angry that she pointed at the beauty's face and scolded her for toasting and refusing to eat fine wine, but the beauty has a good temper and is not like her. If I , I slapped her with a big ear, and asked her who she was talking to and whether she was inferior or not!"

"Look! You are a good female official!" Chang Xi put her palms together and recited Amitabha, "I will have to be more careful in the future, if I accidentally offend your beauty, I will be slapped!"

"Slaves dare to greet Wu Zhaoyi with a slap in the face!" The female officer smiled sweetly.

"Hey!" Chang Xi sighed for a long time, "I'm just worried for others!"

"Worried?" Meiren Xiao and the female officer were puzzled this time.

Chang Xi tightened his smile, and said solemnly: "In the future, you will be released from the palace with His Majesty's grace. Isn't it worrisome for any infatuated man to have such a powerful woman?"

"Hehe!" Xiao Meiren and Mei'er both covered their mouths and laughed, and the remaining maids on the ground also laughed. The shy female official blushed, spat, and said angrily: "Wu Zhaoyi likes to say Some unscrupulous ones, make fun of our slaves!"

"Haha!" Chang Xi smiled heartily.

These maids in Xiaoxiangyuan are used to joking with Chang Xi on weekdays, so they don't care about these details.
