Happy pastoral concubine

Chapter 1066

Listening to Xia Hou's lesson, Xia Shao drooped her head silently, her eyes full of remorse.

"This time the empress dowager helped you solve this matter, what about next time?" Xia Hou looked at her and said earnestly, "Shao'er, you should grow up too, and you should be responsible for some things yourself!"

"En." Xia Shao replied sullenly, but did not open her mouth to refute.

Looking at her like this, Xia Hou knew that she had listened to everything he said.

"By the way, I have to go to the northwest after a while, and I won't be able to visit you in the palace often. You are alone in the palace, and you must be careful in everything. Remember?"

"Dad, don't worry, my daughter will remember what you said." Xia Shao nodded obediently.

In the early morning of the next day, Xia Shao went to the small kitchen of Fengluan Hall, preparing to make some cakes by herself to honor the Queen Mother.

Gong'e came to report in a hurry, "Empress, Lian'er, the sinful servant girl, wants to see you."

"She wants to see me?" A look of surprise quickly flashed across Xia Shao's eyes, but soon returned to calm.

Lian'er grew up with her since she was a child, and Xia Shao treated her even closer than Xia Haitang, her cousin, but who would have thought that she would have betrayed him long ago?

In the dungeon of the clan mansion, it was dark and damp.

Lian'er's fault was betraying the master, so she experienced all the extreme punishments in the prison during this time.

At this moment, she was already bruised and dying.

Lian'er, who was curled up in the corner, smelled the faint fragrance of orchids in the air, and gradually raised her head.

"You want to see me?" Xia Shao stopped only one step away from her, with a cold expression and no warmth in her tone.

Lian'er smiled wryly, and called out in a low voice, "Miss, Lian'er didn't expect you to be willing to see the slave for the last time."

Xia Shao just stared at her expressionlessly, without speaking.

Lian'er has served her for many years and knows what her expression means.

The position of her heart sank suddenly, Lian'er gave a wry smile, her eyes were full of sadness, "Miss, although I know I was wrong, I don't regret it."

"For a man, is it worth it?"

"Miss, he treats me very well." Lian'er lowered her eyes silently, her tone was full of tenderness, "Besides miss, he is the second person who treats me well now. This slave girl grew up with miss since childhood." Daddy, I understand Miss's emotions, and I also know that Miss treats me with deep affection, but Miss, he treats me differently. No one has ever treated me so tenderly, let alone looked at me with such gentle eyes. Slaves... Slaves are really happy."

"So you agreed to Xia Baihe and plot against me just for him?"

"It's not calculated," Lian'er argued, "Your Majesty treats you like jewels, how could a little seductive woman take away His Majesty's favor from you? This servant just wants to take a gamble, that's all. The slave girl agreed to Xia Baihe, after this time, she let me be my concubine."

"You have exhausted all your tricks, just to become Qin An's concubine?" At this moment, Xia Shao suddenly didn't know what to say, "You are the big court lady by my side, and you have grown up with me , Regarding your marriage, I originally wanted to find a good family for you, so that you could become a decent wife. I even thought about whether to recognize you as a righteous sister and give you a good identity. But Lian Er, you It really disappointed me."

"Miss, this servant understands your intentions." Lian'er forced a smile, "But this servant doesn't like the young talents you arranged, since the first time this servant saw the Elder Son, this one My heart lost its direction, and even my own soul was lost... This servant knows that I deserve to die, I am sorry for you, if there is another life, this servant will come to serve you again, and I will never betray you wholeheartedly."

"No need." Xia Shao raised her hand to interrupt her words, "It's not necessary to be unfaithful a hundred times, because of the love between you and me, I will save your life for the rest of your life, I hope you will do it yourself."

Leaving the dark and damp sky prison, Xia Shao stood on the porch.

Looking at the scorching sun in the sky, there is only sadness left in my heart.

How hurtful is the word love?

Until an oil-paper umbrella hung over her head.

Xia Shao looked sideways slightly, and met Xiao Yijin's gentle eyes.

"How does Your Majesty know I'm here?"

"I went to the Fengluan Palace after the court, but I heard the little maid said that you came to the clan mansion, so I came to pick you up." Xiao Yijin held an umbrella in one hand and hugged her thin shoulders with the other.

"Yijin, I feel a little empty in my heart." Xia Shao sighed softly, and said what was in her heart.

"Don't be sad, everything will pass."

"Yijin, do you think I'm stupid?"

"Fool." Yi Jin pinched the tip of her delicate nose fondly, and said in a gentle tone, "You are not stupid at all, you are just too kind-hearted."

At that time, Tai Chi Hall.

Hearing the news that Xia Shao had gone to the clan mansion, although Tang Huanxi felt a little surprised, she felt that it was a reasonable thing.

"Shao'er is a girl who values ​​love and righteousness. After all, Lian'er, the sinful maidservant, has served her for so many years. With her temperament, she will definitely go to see her for the last time." Tang Huanxi smiled indifferently, and then Continue to look at the notebook in your hand.

"But I heard that the Empress has made the decision to leave Lian'er alive." Nanny Gui frowned tightly, and asked worriedly, "Madam, this old slave is worried. If you cut the weeds but don't get rid of the roots, the spring breeze will blow you away." born again."

"I don't think Shao'er would be so stupid. Of course she has her intentions in doing this." Tang Huanxi still trusts the daughter-in-law she personally chose, "Now that Shao'er is back, the palace's daughter-in-law Leave all the general affairs to her, and remember to pick a shrewd and capable nanny from the clan's mansion to serve the queen."

After all, Xia Shao is too young, and her heart is extraordinarily soft.

If she wanted to suppress the group of people in the harem, she had to find a shrewd and capable person to help her.

Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Xia Shao sent a copy of the peach cake she had just made to Taiji Hall, and then came to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"Yijin, try it?" Xia Shao raised her eyebrows and raised her lips proudly, "I made the peach cakes with my own hands, and even Aunt Fuling praised me for their deliciousness!"

Seeing her smiling so delicately, Xiao Yijin's heart skipped a beat, and he stretched out his hand to hold her in his arms.

Eunuch Fu, who was standing at the bottom, immediately understood, and retreated with a group of maidservants.

"You're messing around again!" Xia Shao angrily thumped his chest, and said coquettishly.

"Don't you want a child?" Xiao Yijin hugged her and whispered in her ear, "You have to work harder as a husband so that your wife can get pregnant sooner!"

He spoke so frankly that Xia Shao became more and more embarrassed.
