Concubine Jinghua

Chapter 180 The Fragrant Apricot Blossom

The two quickly returned to the palace, just as Li Jianyang said, just as the two returned to the bamboo garden, the nanny next to Xiao Shen'er came in front of them.

"Slave and maid greet the emperor."

Looking at the nanny who was kneeling on the ground and didn't get up, Ji Chenxi couldn't help but glance at Li Jianyang beside him.

There was always an evil smile on Li Jianyang's handsome face, and he didn't ask Mammy to get up. Instead, he put his arms around Ji Chenxi leisurely and sat on the chair next to him.

The nanny who hadn't heard Li Jianyang tell her to get up had no choice but to kneel on the ground.

After about a cup of tea, Li Jianyang opened his thin lips.

"Tell me, what's the matter?" The deep voice was like a millennium-old fine wine, pleasant and melodious.

"The queen mother has heard about Prince Ji, so... so please invite the emperor to her old man's bedroom. The queen mother has something to ask the emperor."

The nanny didn't dare to be careless, and quickly told Li Jianyang about Xiao Shen'er's confession.

"The queen mother's news is really well-informed." Li Jianyang's lips evoked a secretive smile.

"Tell the Empress Dowager that I am a little tired. I will go to her bedroom tomorrow to pay her respects."

After saying this, Li Jianyang directly ordered the servant to take the nanny away.

"Have the queen mother's people been following us?" Ji Chenxi asked softly.

Li Jianyang snorted coldly.

"In this world, rights are so important that they can make people bravely move forward without fear of death." Li Jianyang said sincerely.

"But... But if you don't go to the queen mother's bedroom, she will be angry, and then she will blame you, but no one can bear it."

Thinking of Xiao Shen'er's cruel methods and cold eyes, Ji Chenxi couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.

"Silly girl, I will be by your side, always protecting you, and will not let you suffer any harm."

The vow of endless love rang in Ji Chenxi's ears.Although it was only a short sentence, it was uttered from Li Jianyang's thin lips with an extremely seductive aura.

Xiao Shen'er in the bedroom was anxiously waiting for Li Jianyang and Ji Chenxi, but when her mother came back and told herself that the emperor was tired and needed to rest, Xiao Shen'er's expression turned ugly.

"The emperor said it himself?"

Xiao Shen'er's face was gloomy, and she asked the nanny who was kneeling on the ground in a cold voice.

"Back to the Empress Dowager, this is indeed what the emperor said himself, and...and when the slaves left, the emperor and Miss Xi'er had already returned to the room. According to Gillian who served them, the emperor and Xi'er had already rested."

The old mother didn't dare to hide anything, and quickly told Xiao Shen'er everything she knew.

Xiao Shen'er frowned tightly, her long and narrow phoenix eyes flashed icy cold.

"Okay, I'm here, and I want to know how long they're going to keep me waiting." A coldness quickly flashed across Xiao Shen'er's eyes.

Ji Chenxi and Li Jianyang slept through the night, and when it was dark, they woke up faintly. Thinking of the queen mother's summoning, Ji Chenxi helplessly curled up her red lips.

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager must have been waiting very anxiously."

Li Jianyang shrugged his shoulders indifferently, kissed the red lips of the woman he loved, and then he sat up slowly.

Under the service of the maid, the two quickly put on their makeup and came to Xiao Shen'er's bedroom.

Standing outside Xiao Shen'er's bedroom, Ji Chenxi's almond eyes, as clear as the morning glow, flashed a touch of coolness.

The two quickly came to Xiao Shen'er. Xiao Shen'er, who had been waiting in the hall for an afternoon, had a gloomy and frightening complexion, especially those long and narrow phoenix eyes. At that time, a icy chill floated over.

"Yang'er pays respects to the queen mother."

"Xi'er pays respects to the Empress Dowager."

She knew that Xiao Shen'er didn't like her, but Ji Chenxi didn't forget the proper etiquette, and she had an indescribable charm when she bowed profusely.

"The emperor is now for a woman. I don't care about this palace anymore."

After a while, Xiao Shen'er's somewhat sad voice came from everyone's ears. The tone mixed with a bit of bitterness made Li Jianyang raise his eyebrows playfully.

"Why would the queen mother think so? You are the queen mother of the emperor's son. This is something that no one can change."

Li Jianyang held Ji Chenxi's little hand, and sat opposite Xiao Shen'er, with an unfathomable smile on his graceful and handsome face.

"Your Majesty, will the Empress Dowager be the second?" Ji Chenxi couldn't help but softly asked Li Jianyang beside him.

Li Jianyang turned around unhurriedly, and directly kissed Ji Chenxi's lips in front of Xiao Shen'er.

"Looking at the performance of the queen mother, it is not yet." A mysterious smile quickly crossed Li Jianyang's lips.

"Prince, I heard that you killed Prince Ji?" Finally, it's time to get to the point, Queen Mother, where did your patience go?To mention it so quickly.

Li Jianyang unhurriedly raised those beautiful eyes full of deep and dark.

"The news about the queen mother is really well-informed. Could it be that she is by my side and has arranged someone to watch me?" Li Jianyang's casual words startled Li Nanny who had been standing behind Xiao Shen'er. Jumping, lowering his head anxiously.

"The queen mother is just worried about you."

Xiao Shen'er did not deny this matter, there was a hint of thought-provoking in his wise and phoenix eyes.

"Mother Li, are you convicted?"

Li Jianyang suddenly yelled coldly loudly, which shocked Li Nanny behind Xiao Shen'er into a cold sweat, she hurried to Li Jianyang and knelt down.

"Your Majesty, servant...don't you know, servant?"

Looking at Nanny Li who was kneeling on the ground with an innocent face, Li Jianyang's thin lips showed a hint of coldness.

"Sending someone to follow me secretly, isn't this the crime of beheading?" Li Jianyang said unhurriedly, with a bloodthirsty tone in his lazy tone.

"Your servant...the servant did not do this, your majesty...you have wronged the servant."

Nanny Li's persistence had long been expected by Li Jianyang, so he was not surprised at all, but a sharp light flashed leisurely through those black pupils that were slightly squinted together.

"Crack...crack..." Li Jianyang clapped his hands in the air. With little effort, Ximenhan walked into the hall with a man with wicked eyebrows and mouse eyes.

"Han, when did you come?" Seeing Ximen Han who hadn't seen him for a while, Ji Chenxi couldn't help being a little excited, but then thought that Xiao Shen'er was looking at her.She quickly put away the smile on her face, and sat beside Li Jianyang gracefully.

"Mother Li, do you still know him?"

Li Jianyang pointed at the man in Ximenhan's hand, and asked in a cold voice.

"Slave... Slave doesn't know me." When she saw the man's appearance, Madam Li gasped involuntarily. With a pale face, she was still ruthlessly denying it.

Li Jianyang nodded, and a wicked smile suddenly appeared on his handsome face.

"Since I don't know each other, then I don't have to worry anymore, Han, pull him out and cut him apart." Hearing Li Jianyang's words, Nanny Li fell to the ground directly, her forehead covered in cold sweat.

"Your Majesty, don't."

Nanny Li quickly crawled in front of Li Jianyang, begging loudly.

"Oh?" Seeing Nanny Li's instant compromise, Li Jianyang was in a good mood, and an evil smile appeared on his knife-like handsome face.

"Mother Li, don't you know this man?"

Nanny Li sighed softly, and couldn't help looking at Xiao Shen'er, who was sitting beside her, high above her. When she saw that Xiao Shen'er's face had no expression, but was full of coldness, Nanny Li knew that she was The last backer has been lost.

"He is...he is the servant's younger brother who lives outside the palace. Please forgive me, Your Majesty." The cruel fact forced Nanny Li to admit this matter.

"Are you guilty?"

Nanny Li nodded.

"My servant is guilty. I should not have sent my younger brother to follow the emperor, but...but this servant is also following orders. Otherwise, even if this servant is very courageous, he would not dare to do so."

Li Jianyang nodded, a secretive smile appeared on his lips.

"Tell me, whose order is it?"

Nanny Li glanced at Xiao Shen'er, and was about to say her name when a cold sword ruthlessly shot her in the chest.

Looking at the sudden cold sword, Li Jianyang wasn't too surprised. When he glanced at a piece of clothing outside the window, he had already guessed Li Nanny's fate.

"Come here, pull Nanny Li and this man out."

Although many guards heard Xiao Shen'er's order and came to the mother's body together, but those who did not receive Li Jianyang's order just stood there without any intention of taking any action.

"You..." Seeing that the guards did not obey his orders at all, Xiao Shen'er's face turned purple in anger.

Li Jianyang waved his hand, and the guards quickly dragged Nanny Li and the man out of the hall. The smell of blood in the air gradually disappeared after all the windows were opened.

"Nurse Li has served the Queen Mother for so long. I didn't expect to be killed by someone she didn't expect in the end. I believe she will not rest in peace after she dies."

Li Jianyang's deep eyes shone like starlight, and he looked at Xiao Shen'er lazily.

"I am indeed very sad, so I ask the emperor to find out the person who put the cold sword behind his back. I also don't want Nanny Li to die in vain."

Xiao Shen'er was very calm, there was still a faint smile on that beautiful cheek that had not been left any trace by the years.

"I did kill Prince Ji, and also ordered someone to raid his home and hand over all his assets to the treasury."

Li Jianyang answered Xiao Shen'er's question positively.

"Prince, you... If you do this, other ministers will be dissatisfied. Even if Prince Ji has done something wrong, he is the prince who was appointed by the former emperor after all. If you kill him for no reason, those ministers will definitely be angry." It's causing you some trouble."

Xiao Shen'er looked very worried about Li Jianyang, but it was a pity that Li Jianyang, who had seen through her true face, did not feel the slightest warmth, only felt that she was so hypocritical at this time.

"I will explain everything to those ministers, but Queen Mother, since ancient times, there have been regulations in the capital that people in the harem are not allowed to interfere in politics, but you have violated this order time and time again. What are you talking about?"

Li Jianyang unhurriedly picked up the teacup that the court lady brought to his hand, and just brought it to his mouth, a faint smell that did not belong to the fragrance of tea lingered in his nose.

Ji Chenxi glanced at Li Jianyang beside her. While picking up the teacup, she also noticed something strange in the cup, and just wanted to cast a warning look at Li Jianyang.But Li Jianyang suddenly put down his cup again.

"The tea is really fragrant, but I don't like the smell of this tea. Han, grab two rabbits." Li Jianyang suddenly changed the subject, making everyone puzzled. Except for Ji Chenxi, no one I know what he's going to do next.

With little effort, Ximen Han walked into the hall with two snow-white rabbits in his arms.

Li Jianyang winked at Ximenhan. As a brother for many years, Ximenhan immediately picked up the teacup and poured the tea into the rabbit's mouth involuntarily.

In less than a stick of incense, the rabbit, which was still alive and kicking just now, suddenly fell to the ground. No matter how Ximenhan touched it, it had no intention of waking up.

"I didn't expect that there would be such a bold person in the Queen Mother's bedroom, who dared to put Mihun powder in my tea. Queen Mother, should you clean up the people in the bedroom?"

Li Jianyang glanced at Xiao Shen'er who was getting more and more nervous with ulterior motives.

After a while, Xiao Shen'er gradually lost his mind.

"Yeah, I've been worrying a lot lately, and I really ignored this issue. The emperor is right, it's time to clean up."

Li Jianyang nodded, and just as he was about to end this boring battle, a sound similar to splashing water came from his ears.

At the same time, Ji Chenxi heard an unusual voice, and her beautiful eyebrows were tightly wrinkled.

"Huang'er, where are you going?" Seeing Li Jianyang standing up, Xiao Shen'er couldn't help but become more nervous.

"Didn't the queen mother smell a burning smell?"

Li Jian raised his eyebrows and gradually gathered a layer of icy hostility.

"Smell of burning?"

Li Jianyang's reminder made Xiao Shen'er extremely nervous. Sure enough, soon, a strong smell of burning lingered in everyone's nostrils.

"Your Majesty, get out of here quickly, someone set fire to it." Ximenhan, who knew the situation, covered his mouth and nose, and came in front of Li Jianyang.

Li Jianyang nodded.

"Send the queen mother out first." Even in the face of the queen mother's repeated injuries, Li Jianyang's first thought was her safety when life and death were at stake.

Such an order caused a complicated look to cross Xiao Shen'er's eyes.

The fire was not very big, and the guards extinguished the fire in less than a stick of incense, but what shocked them was that the emperor and Miss Xi'er had never left the palace.

"Oh my god, something happened to the emperor?" This was the only thought in the minds of all the guards.

Ximen Han also frowned, he knew that this little fire was not enough to cause any harm to the two of them, but why didn't they come out?Is there any trouble in there?
Just when Ximenhan was about to rush in, Li Jianyang and Ji Chenxi walked out of the hall hand in hand.

"Your Majesty, are you alright?"

Ximenhan hurriedly came to Li Jianyang, and asked anxiously, his eyes scanned him up and down, making sure that he was safe, Ximenhan let out a long sigh of relief.

"Huanger, you...why haven't you come out from inside?"

With the help of the palace maid, Xiao Shen'er came to Li Jianyang, but what she asked first was not whether Li Jianyang was injured, but the worry in her heart.

A secretive smile quickly appeared on Li Jianyang's handsome face, and his dark pupils, as deep as a pool, also flashed an evil light in an instant.

"I found a good thing in the empress dowager's bedroom." Li Jianyang unhurriedly took out a booklet from his pocket.

When Xiao Shen'er saw this pamphlet, she was startled and almost fell to the ground.

"What... what is this?" Xiao Shen'er asked tremblingly.

Li Jianyang opened his thin lips unhurriedly.

"There are many ministers' names on it, but it's really strange. The name on it is actually the person I want to get rid of. Queen Mother, your palace is really full of masters. This book has been hidden by my side all the time. The pamphlet has actually arrived in your bedroom."

Li Jianyang said sarcastically.

"Bengong... I don't know, maybe some thieves say that they have only one purpose, and that is to sow up the relationship between me and your mother and child. Your Majesty, don't you be fooled?"

Li Jianyang glanced at Xiao Shen'er, this thought-provoking look made Xiao Shen'er shudder and shudder.

"Xi'er, we can go back to the palace. The queen mother should go to bed earlier."

After saying this, Li Jianyang directly took Ji Chenxi's hand, and quickly left Xiao Shen'er's bedroom.

"Damn it, I made a mistake."

Seeing Li Jianyang's leaving back, Xiao Shen'er let out a roar.

"Is this booklet really yours?"

Ji Chenxi, who returned to the bamboo garden, asked Li Jianyang with a smile on her face. She was full of curiosity about the booklet.

"Want to see it?" A playful and evil smile flashed across Li Jianyang's handsome face.

"Of course I want to see it."

Li Jianyang nodded.

"You can read it if you want, but let me see your sincerity. Otherwise, if your sincerity doesn't satisfy me, I might destroy this booklet in the next moment."

Li Jianyang moved the booklet to the candlelight.

"Don't..." Seeing Li Jianyang's actions, Ji Chenxi stopped her softly. She knew what Li Jianyang meant by sincerity.

So he didn't hesitate anymore, lowered his head slightly, and lightly kissed Li Jianyang's handsome face.

"Woman, is this the end?" Li Jianyang, who was still waiting for another kiss, couldn't help being a little stunned.

"This is already my biggest concession, Your Majesty...you can't force Xi'er." Ji Chenxi looked at Li Jianyang shyly.

Li Jianyang sighed softly.

"A woman who probably doesn't know how to please the emperor is the one I love the most. Xi'er, what do you think I should do with you?"

Li Jianyang deliberately pretended to be very embarrassed.

While he was acting, Ji Chenxi quickly took the booklet out of his hand, but after opening it, Ji Chenxi's soft and beautiful face was filled with a layer of angry flames.

"Your Majesty, are you kidding me?"

Angrily, Ji Chenxi threw the completely blank booklet in front of Li Jianyang, and there was a bit of sadness in those big clear eyes that were shining like glazed glass.

Seeing Ji Chenxi's red lips slightly pursed, and her pink face flushed even more with anger, Li Jianyang couldn't help but feel a burning urge.

His big hands held the beloved woman in his arms.

"Xi'er, do you know that every movement of yours reveals an invisible temptation, which makes me unable to stop, wishing to put you under my body every day, every movement of yours will turn me into a hungry cat?" Wolf."

The ambiguous words rang in Ji Chenxi's ears.

Ji Chenxi smiled sweetly.

"Your majesty, are you sure that you are a hungry wolf now? Didn't you have enough to eat last night?" Ji Chenxi pursed her red lips, and said softly, her slender hands touched Li Jianyang's chest provocatively.

"As long as I see you, I can turn into a hungry wolf at any time."

Li Jianyang firmly grasped Ji Chenxi's little hand that was stirring up flames on his chest, and whispered in her ear with an evil tone.

The fiery breath sprayed on her ears unreservedly.

"Your Majesty, why did you lie to the Empress Dowager? Did she really fall for it?" Ji Chenxi raised her pink and flushed face slightly, and asked softly.

"I only know that the Queen Mother won't do anything in a short period of time. She will rest in the palace for a while, and I can take advantage of this time to clean up the house."

When he said the last sentence, Li Jianyang raised his thin lips with a icy chill. Even if it was just a simple movement, if he did it, there was an innate aura of king in his gestures. .

"Who is the next target?" Ji Chenxi has been troubled by this question for a long time, but apart from seeing a mysterious smile on Li Jianyang's face, she has nothing to gain.

"Really want to know?"

Li Jianyang's big hand gently lifted Ji Chenxi's chin, so that she could clearly see the fiery flame in her eyes.

"I want to know, but I don't want to pay any reward." Ji Chenxi mischievously grabbed Li Jianyang's big hand, and a sly light flashed across those almond eyes that were as bright as stars.

A smile as bright as a cherry blossom seems to capture all the color and brilliance of everything in an instant.

"Xi'er, you are such an elf, cute, calm, and calm, why don't I love you?" Li Jianyang looked at Ji Chenxi calmly, as if he wanted to imprint her deeply in his mind, which would never be erased for a lifetime.

"Since you love me, tell me who your second target is. Otherwise, I'll ignore you." Ji Chenxi turned around, as if she didn't want to talk to Li Jianyang again, but this kind of coquettish behavior made Li Jianyang haha Laugh out loud.

"Okay, I'll tell you."

Ji Chenxi immediately turned around, her eyes were full of expectation.

"Come on, who is it?"

Li Jianyang leaned down slightly, his sexy thin lips pressed against Ji Chenxi's ear.

"It's him?" Hearing Li Jianyang's words, Ji Chenxi raised her eyebrows in shock. She had imagined many people, but she never thought that the second person Li Jianyang wanted to get rid of was actually...

"Isn't he no longer posing any threat to you? Could it be... Is this just what we see on the surface?"

Ji Chenxi immediately guessed everything cleverly. She remembered that Li Jianyang once said that no matter how beautiful things are, one cannot just look at the surface. What you see on the surface can never be the truth.

"He has been recruiting soldiers secretly, and do you know? Shui Xue is with him now, and the jewels left by Master are now in his mansion, and he is using these jewels to recruit soldiers and has been secretly cultivating his own power .”

When mentioning this person, a cold and cruel smile was drawn on the corner of Li Jianyang's mouth.

"Shui Xue is with him?" Ji Chenxi looked shocked, but felt a little regretful about Shui Xue's choice. With such a man, she would never be able to find happiness in her life.

"After leaving Yaowang Valley, Shuixue was with the people of Yinmei Palace. It was only for a while that she left Yinmei Palace and her whereabouts were unknown. Ximenhan sent people to search for her secretly until half a month later. I only got her whereabouts before, but no one thought that she had returned to the capital and was still with that cripple."

When it comes to Shui Xue, Li Jianyang has an indescribably complicated psychology. He thought about taking good care of her, but. . . . .But the reality is so cruel. Not only did I fail to take good care of her, but I led her astray. I hope that when I see the master in a hundred years, the old man will not blame me.

Ji Chenxi knew the pain in Li Jianyang's heart.

"I believe your master will not blame you. Everyone has their own destiny. This is Shuixue's own choice. I hope she will not regret it. After all, everyone has made their own way."

Li Jianyang nodded, and gently hugged Ji Chenxi in his arms. Only at this time did he feel that he no longer had any regrets in his life, and his life was complete.

In the next few days, just as Li Jianyang said, there was no sound in Xiao Shen'er's bedroom, and Xiao Shen'er never left the bedroom.

Even if Leng Yanran went to pay her respects, she would be sent away by the nanny.

"Miss Xi'er, would you like some lychees? The emperor specially sent someone to bring them to you." A Jiao came to Ji Chenxi with a plate of fresh lychees.

Since Ji Chenxi accidentally said that she likes to eat lychees, Li Jianyang sent people all the way to deliver them. This feeling moved her very much.

Although the lychees are a bit sour, when thinking of Li Jianyang, Ji Chenxi will feel sweet in his heart, as sweet as drinking honey.

"A-Jiao, do you know Ji Lichen?"

Gillian nodded.

"I've heard, I heard that it used to be very beautiful, but after the emperor sat on the dragon throne, he was pulled down from the crown prince's position, and I also heard..."

Gillian carefully glanced around to make sure that no one was eavesdropping, and her red lips came to Ji Chenxi's ear.

"I heard that he has become a useless person now, but... But some time ago, I heard a little father-in-law mentioned that there was a woman beside him, and that woman seemed to have a high status in his mansion, so she Even he listened to that woman."

Gillian told Ji Chenxi angrily what she knew.

Ji Chenxi nodded, it seems that the matter is the same as the news obtained by the emperor's investigation, Shui Xue is really in Ji Lichen's mansion.

"A-Jiao, walk around with me. The emperor has been dealing with official business during this time, so he doesn't have time to talk to me."

Although Li Jianyang cared about him in every possible way, Ji Chenxi still felt a sense of loss since he hadn't seen him for two days.

In order to fear that Ji Chenxi would catch cold, Gillian thoughtfully took out a cloak from the house, and then followed Ji Chenxi out of the bamboo garden.

During this period of time, Ji Chenxi, who stayed in the bamboo garden and stayed at home, discovered that the apricot garden next to the bamboo garden was full of apricot flowers, and some even produced small fruits.

"When did this bloom? Why didn't I know?"

Ji Chenxi walked into the apricot orchard, and the aroma of apricot blossoms in the air made her close her eyes comfortably, breathing in the elegant fragrance greedily.

"It's been on for a while, but a while ago, you were with the emperor all the time, so...so maybe you didn't notice it."

Ji Chenxi nodded, she walked under the apricot tree, slowly stretched out her hand, and took out an apricot flower that was blown down by the wind.

"It smells really good." She gently placed it under her nose, and a faint fragrance lingered in her nose immediately.

"Miss Xi'er, I...why do I feel dizzy?"

Hearing Gillian's words, Ji Chenxi turned around quickly, only to see that Gillian seemed unable to support her body, shaking several times in succession, and finally fell directly to the ground, with an expression on her face that seemed to be in great pain.

Ji Chenxi frowned, hurried to Gillian, and touched her nose with her finger.

Some faint breath made Ji Chenxi realize that something was wrong, she quickly helped Gillian out of the apricot garden.

Standing outside the apricot garden, Gillian felt much better.

"How is it? Are you still dizzy?"

Seeing that Gillian's face recovered, Ji Chenxi heaved a long sigh of relief. Although she didn't know why Gillian passed out suddenly, Ji Chenxi knew that her life was not in any danger.

"It's much better. Although I'm still a little dizzy, it's not very serious. Miss Xi'er, what's going on? I've never been in such a situation before?"

Gillian was full of doubts, she didn't understand why she had a splitting headache the moment she walked into the apricot garden.

"A-Jiao, tell me, did you feel this way after entering the apricot garden?" Ji Chenxi's apricot eyes fell on the apricot tree full of apricot blossoms.

"Yes, I was fine before entering the door, but after entering, when I smelled the fragrance, I felt faint."

Gillian honestly expressed her physical reaction.

Ji Chenxi nodded, helped A-Jiao to sit on the chair at the door, and told her not to step into the apricot garden again. Ji Chenxi did not enter the apricot garden again until A-Jiao nodded her promise.

Standing under the tree, Ji Chenxi took several breaths, but the dizzy feeling that Gillian mentioned did not appear.

What exactly is going on?If Xinghua was tampered with, why didn't she feel anything?Ji Chenxi looked puzzled, when an apricot blossom fell on her hair, Ji Chenxi raised her hand subconsciously, trying to brush the apricot blossom away.

Could it be a jade bracelet?
The moment Ji Chenxi raised his wrist, he saw the blood jade bracelet that he had been wearing all along. Could it be that it dispelled the fragrance in the apricot blossom?

Ji Chenxi was puzzled. In order to find out the truth, she nimbly jumped up to the top of the tree on her toes and carefully observed the leaves above.

Sure enough, it is the fragrance, but the visitor is very clever and sprinkles the fragrance into the tree trunks, so that when the apricot blossoms are in full bloom, the fragrance in the trunks will penetrate into the apricot blossoms little by little, blowing with the breeze , the fragrance in the apricot blossom will float in the air, and those who smell it will feel drowsy.

But...but who is doing this?The apricot garden has been uninhabited. Could it be that he wants to harm himself?

Seeing that there was only a short distance between the bamboo orchard and the apricot orchard, Ji Chenxi understood everything in an instant. She had to admire this man's ingenuity, and he knew how to use the wind direction to let these fragrances stay in her for a long time. Surrounded by him, so that after a period of time, he will always be groggy.Even if there is an imperial physician, they will not find out the reason for their coma, because the fragrance has penetrated into their bodies bit by bit.

High, really high.A faint smile appeared on Ji Chenxi's lips. If possible, she really wanted to know who this person was.She really wanted to ask him how he came up with this method.

"Miss Xi'er, are you okay?" Gillian who was on the top couldn't see Ji Chenxi coming out, afraid that she would have an accident, so she kept shouting outside.

After a while, when Gillian was going to look for Ji Chenxi in the apricot orchard, Ji Chenxi walked out of the apricot orchard calmly.

"Miss Xi'er, are you alright?"

Ji Chenxi shook her head, her petal-like mouth curled into a faint smile.Holding a lot of apricot flowers in her hands, she and Gillian quickly returned to the bamboo garden.

"Miss, is there really something wrong with these apricot flowers?"

Seeing Ji Chenxi playing with these apricot flowers, Gillian was full of doubts.

"I'm pretty sure there's something in it, and that's why you passed out."

Ji Chenxi confirmed that the apricot blossoms contained fragrance ingredients, which made her eyebrows frowned tightly. After a while, as the apricot blossoms bloomed more and more, those fragrances would permeate the air on a large scale In this way, more people will faint.

what to doIs the apricot orchard going to be demolished?But if the apricot orchard is demolished, the person who did all this secretly will be alerted.When the time comes to find him, it will be even more difficult than climbing to the sky.

"The Emperor is here."

Just when Ji Chenxi didn't know how to deal with these apricot trees, his father-in-law's voice came from his ear.Immediately afterwards, the sound of footsteps that I was all too familiar with came from far and near.

"A-Jiao pays respects to the emperor."

Li Jianyang nodded, and walked in front of Ji Chenxi with a few big sword steps.

"Xi'er, are you alright?" Li Jianyang looked nervously, scanning Ji Chenxi up and down, making sure that she didn't feel any discomfort, Li Jianyang heaved a long sigh of relief.

"You know all about it?" Ji Chenxi didn't think about it, and it reached Li Jianyang's ears so quickly. His sweaty forehead made Ji Chenxi sure that he came here in a hurry.

"If I don't know, are you planning to keep it a secret from me?" Li Jianyang held Ji Chenxi in his arms.

"I just don't want to add any trouble to the emperor. The emperor is already very busy, so he doesn't need to worry about my affairs."

Ji Chenxi said softly, those beautiful eyes as clear as blue waves were full of affection.

"Your affairs are my affairs. Remember, you belong to me, and everything belongs to me. Whether it is pain or joy, I will share it with you. Do you understand?" Li Jianyang said domineeringly and arrogantly. Said in Ji Chenxi's ear.

Ji Chenxi smiled slightly.

"Okay, everything about me is yours, so you can help me figure out a way now, how do I deal with those apricot trees?"

Ji Chenxi's voice was as clear as a ray of mountain spring.

"What are you going to do?" Li Jianyang knew that the woman he loved had already figured out a perfect plan, and would ask himself, just to respect himself.

"I'm going to follow the plan and catch the mastermind behind it." A mischievous and cunning light quickly appeared in Ji Chenxi's eyes.

"Okay, if you need anything, I will provide it indefinitely."

Seeing the smile on the face of the woman he loves, Li Jianyang felt that he was the happiest man in the world.

Ji Chenxi shook her head.The corners of her lips, which were as delicate as rose petals, raised an unusually enchanting smile.

"Your support is enough. I will do the next thing myself. You just need to block the news for me."

Li Jianyang nodded.

For the next few days, Ji Chenxi kept herself in the room, and even Gillian would be kicked out after she brought the food to her room.

It wasn't until the fourth day that Ji Chenxi walked out of the room with a smile on his face, holding a bottle of liquid in his hand.

"Miss Xi'er, what is this?"

Gillian looked at Ji Chenxi with a puzzled expression.

"A-Jiao, there's still more in it, please bring me another bottle."

Although she didn't understand what Ji Chenxi meant, Gillian obediently took out another bottle from the room, and the two came to Xingyuan quickly.

"Stand here and help me guard. If someone comes, call me immediately, understand? Don't let anyone find out that we are here." Ji Chenxi said to Gillian in a serious tone.

"Okay, I see."

Ji Chenxi smiled slightly, carried two bottles, and walked into the apricot garden.
