The emperor plays a rogue: a cute little gambling concubine

Chapter 45 The Five Elements Are Short of Money
Sun Xiaoxi and Lian Jing had a cold war, and the two began to return to the state of being inseparable, but who is Sun Xiaoxi?As long as she has money, as long as she can live a happy life as she wishes, she won't worry about the consequences of having trouble with the emperor.

Today is another sunny day suitable for going out. Sun Xiaoxi changed into casual clothes, pulled up to the small temple, and said boldly: "Xiaosi, let's go out of the palace."

The small temple was silent, holding a certain imperial concubine's hand firmly, unmoved.

Sun Xiaoxi looked puzzled, she readily agreed to let her accompany her out of the palace a few days ago, why is she acting so weird today?

"What's the matter, Xiaosi? Bring some money, we're going out of the palace to eat and drink!"

"Imperial concubine..." Xiaosi hesitated, looking at her with a troubled face, "I'm afraid we won't be able to leave the palace for a few days." Maybe not just for a few days, probably for a while up.

Sun Xiaoxi looked puzzled, "Why? Could it be that the dog emperor came to embarrass us again?" Whenever something bad happened, Sun Xiaoxi couldn't help but think of the representative of the bad guys - Lian Jing.

"Uh... imperial concubine, this has nothing to do with the emperor." The imperial concubine always disliked the emperor, and she felt a little wronged for the emperor.

"It's none of his business?" Sun Xiaoxi touched her chin with an ignorant expression, "Then whose business is it?"

The biggest obstacle for them to go out of the palace to have fun is the dog emperor. If it's not his business, then whose business is it?

"Of course it's because of your problem, imperial concubine!" Xiaosi said with a headache on his face, "Princess, we have spent too much money to go out of the palace to have fun these few times. Your dowry and salary for the past few months, we It's all gone..."

Where do they have money to go out and have fun now?

"No money..." Sun Xiaoxi suffered a huge blow to her spirit. She slid on the stool and looked desperately at the free sky outside.

Without money, they couldn't go out of the palace. If they couldn't go out of the palace, how could she continue her happy life?

"That's right, so imperial concubine, let's be more peaceful these days and stop running outside all the time." In this way, she doesn't have to be chased by Mr. Ma all the time to ask about the imperial concubine's affairs.

No!

With a bang, Sun Xiaoxi patted the wooden table and stood up. How could she just sit and wait for death? Without money, wouldn't she borrow money?The empress dowager's backing is not just a decoration, as long as she acts coquettishly in front of the empress dowager and sells it to Meng or something, I believe she can make money soon.

Thinking of this, Sun Xiaoxi said that the wind is like rain and ran to the Queen Mother's bedroom.

Anhe Hall——

The queen mother was drinking tea slowly, and she glanced furtively at her handsome emperor's son, with a hint of cunning in her eyes. She put down the teacup and asked, "Jing'er, what's wrong with you? You're in a trance. What are you thinking about?"

Could it be that he was thinking about a dead girl in Xiaoxuan Palace?During those days when she was chanting scriptures in the Buddhist hall, she heard a lot of good things between the two of them. It was the emperor who favored Concubine Xiao, and the emperor kissed Concubine Xiao forcibly. The little maid said that she saw the emperor and concubine quarreling near the gate of the palace.

Her emperor would actually quarrel with a woman, or was it a woman he didn't like very much before?What a surprise she was!
Lian Jing came back to his senses, looked at the benevolent queen mother, and shook his head as if hiding his thoughts, "No, my son is just thinking about state affairs."

The queen mother raised her eyebrows, showing a dissatisfied expression, "National affairs? The Ai family didn't see you, the emperor, for many days, so they let you come to accompany Ai's family. You are still distracted by state affairs?"

Lian Jing pursed her lips, frowned and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, Empress, it's my son who was distracted."

Seeing his distressed look, the queen mother sighed, and couldn't bear to embarrass him any longer, she turned away the servants around her, she wanted to have a talk with him.

"Jing'er, did something happen between you and Shanshan?"

Hearing the Queen Mother mentioned Sun Xiaoxi's name, Lian Jing couldn't help but frown even tighter, "What can happen to my son and her?"

"You, don't be stubborn in front of the mother." The son she gave birth to, how could she not know what he was thinking.

"Mother, if you let Erchen come today to talk about Sun Xiaoxi, then Shu Erchen will leave first!" After speaking, Lian Jing stood up from the seat, looking like he was about to leave.

At this moment, a maid from outside the hall came in and passed on, "Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, Concubine Xiao is asking to see you outside the hall, and she said that she has something urgent to see you, Empress Dowager."

"Shanshan?" The Empress Dowager raised her eyebrows, wondering: She has come to invite Ann today, and now she has something to see her?

Unlike the Queen Mother's reaction, when Lian Jing heard Sun Xiaoxi begging for an audience outside the hall, he subconsciously retracted the step he was about to take.

"Empress Dowager." The maid glanced at Lian Jing and asked, "Do you need a servant to let Concubine Xiao come back later?"

The queen mother cast her eyes on Lian Jing, seeing the tangled expression on Lian Jing's handsome face, she raised a sly smile, waved her hand, and said, "Let her in, but don't tell her, the emperor will it's here."

The maid blessed her body and replied: "Yes." Then she turned around and went out to invite Sun Xiaoxi in.

"Queen, since Sun Xiaoxi has something important to ask you, the minister will leave first."

As soon as Lian Jing finished speaking, the queen mother stopped him, "Wait a minute! Why are you going? Don't you know Shanshan? She is your concubine, don't you want to hear that she has something important to ask Aijia?" ?”

Lian Jing frowned, and his thin lips were slightly parted. Just as he was about to say something, he heard Sun Xiaoxi's crisp voice, "My mother, Shanshan is here again..."

Sun Xiaoxi saw Lian Jing as soon as she stepped into the hall, and then almost stopped talking when she saw someone else.

The two looked at each other, and Sun Xiaoxi felt like an electric current passed through her whole body, numb and numb, and her heart was beating abnormally fast.

Seeing Sun Xiaoxi, Lian Jing's heart felt as if someone had tightly grasped it, and it was itchy and painful. Seeing her at this time, he was both happy and at a loss.
