Reborn to marry ex-husband's nemesis

Chapter 390
"How is it?" Emperor Xiao asked, "Did she say anything?"

"The county lord was quiet all the way and didn't say anything."

"Quiet?" Emperor Xiao raised his eyebrows, thought for a moment, and asked, "Does she like the cakes and tea I ordered you to prepare for her?"

"This……"

Li Quansheng was in a dilemma, what he was most afraid of was that His Majesty would ask him about this matter.

Seeing his hesitation, Emperor Xiao immediately turned cold: "What? She doesn't like it?"

"Your Majesty, forgive me. It's the Fu'an county magistrate who never touched those things, not even taking a sip of tea!"

Li Quansheng only felt cold sweat dripping from his forehead. Now His Majesty's mood is becoming more and more uncertain, and he will be furious if there is any mistake. In the past half month alone, three servants have been killed. This is a phenomenon that has never happened before. what!

After listening to Xiao Huang, he was silent for a long time, and suddenly smiled.

"That's all." Emperor Xiao sighed, "She has such a temperament, but I was confused. After so many years, I actually forgot."

After realizing who Emperor Xiao was talking about, Li Quansheng's heart trembled and he became more and more terrified.

Fortunately, Huang Xiao didn't get entangled in this matter, he just said to Li Quansheng: "Go and invite Fu'an in."

Not long after Chu Zhi stood at the bottom of the steps, he saw more than a dozen young girls holding pipas walking out of the hall. They were dressed in light gauze, and their figures were slim.

Chu Zhi lowered his eyes.

Chu Zhi is so dazzling, the singers and prostitutes who came out naturally saw her, but after all, she was a courtesan in the palace, and they knew at a glance that this was the imperial concubine, who should not be violated, so they suppressed the envy in their eyes, bowed their heads and left. go.

Not long after the singing girl came out, Li Quansheng greeted her with a shy smile: "County Lord, Your Majesty invites you in!"

Chu Zhi raised his eyes, took a deep breath, walked gracefully up the jade steps, and walked into the hall. Against the backdrop of the twilight in the sky, he was a little more chilling for no reason.

"The minister's wife pays homage to Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live, long live."

Hearing the word chenfu, Emperor Xiao frowned, but did not show it on his face, and said with a smile: "Fu'an is here, sit down quickly."

Li Quansheng immediately served tea and cakes.

Chu Zhi's red dress was extremely bright, piercing Xiao Huang's eyes were slightly narrowed, especially the golden light on his head, a good fairy-like person, dressed like those vulgar things in the palace, ruined his appearance in vain.

He looked at Chu Zhi for a long time, and seeing that she had no intention of speaking, he smiled and said, "I ordered Li Quansheng to pick you up before noon, and I heard from Li Quansheng that you didn't move the food prepared for you in the car, so you didn't move too much." I haven't even had a sip of tea, so I thought it didn't suit your taste, so I ordered someone to prepare some again, and you can try it to see if it suits your taste." Emperor Xiao said jokingly, "Everything here is for the palace people to try one by one. It's the safest thing to do, no one dares to poison you in front of me, so you can use it with confidence!"

Others don't dare, but you can't guarantee it.

It's just that Chu Zhi can only slander this sentence, but on the surface he has to thank: "My wife, thank you for your kindness."

Xiao Huang now broke the words, knowing that Chu Zhi was on guard, it would be bad if Chu Zhi remained stalemate, so he could only pick up a cup of tea and take a sip.

"how?"

"Clean and delicate fragrance, endless aftertaste on the lips and teeth, good tea."

Emperor Xiao was very satisfied: "This is the yellow bud from the sparrow mountain that I personally collected, so it is naturally extraordinary."

Chu Zhi quickly put down the teacup: "My wife..."

"What kind of courtiers are not courtiers? If you are less than twenty-eight years old, you have one courtier's wife. There is no reason to call yourself old." Xiao Huang said, "Now that I am getting old, I don't like to hear people mention these things. "

Li Quansheng on the side immediately reminded in a low voice: "County Lord, yesterday a Concubine Kang said in front of His Majesty that she looked old, and was immediately thrown into limbo by His Majesty."

You still listen to His Majesty, don't call me any more.

Just don't call the minister's wife what to call?Courtesy?

How funny!

Chu Zhi sneered, with sincerity on his face: "It's just that my wife is married now. If she doesn't call herself that, how should she call herself? My wife is stupid, and I hope Your Majesty will clarify."

If it weren't for Chu Zhi's expression being too sincere, Emperor Xiao would have almost thought that she was deliberately mocking him.

Facing Chu Zhi's eyes full of humility asking for advice, Emperor Xiao hesitated for a while, before saying: "Forget it, I'm confused, I'm really old."

"Your Majesty's dragon-horse spirit, good fortune and longevity, long live Your Majesty!"

Xiao Huang would only feel bored if he was someone else, but what Chu Zhi said was so sincere, Xiao Huang was very pleased with what he said, and the gloom in his heart dissipated immediately, shaking his head and laughing: "You are really eloquent, no wonder Ah Zhan asked to marry you at the beginning. You... don't say it's him, but I'm five or ten years younger, so I must choose you as the show girl, wouldn't it be a pleasure to accompany such a sweet and intelligent person every day."

Chu Zhi's heart skipped a beat, and he smiled slowly: "It's my wife's poor fortune. When I was in the country, my mother told my wife that the fragrance is far away and the smell is close. Besides, your majesty treats my wife so kindly, just because of my family. For the face of the young master, if there is no young master, the court wife would not be honored today, and we husband and wife will definitely work together in the future to be loyal to your majesty and to Liang."

Emperor Xiao touched the back molars with his tongue, tsk!She looks cute and quiet, but she doesn't want to be a troublesome person.

It's just that the interest in the eyes is getting stronger.

"It's getting dark in a blink of an eye. You should rest in the palace. Li Quansheng will arrange your accommodation. You must be tired just now. Go wash up first. After you tidy up, come and have dinner with me." Falling on Chu Zhi's attire, he said, "Your immortal air is so beautiful, such a gaudy color can't humiliate you, go and change it!"

"This..." Chu Zhi was in a dilemma, "The minister thought that His Majesty had summoned her, so she changed into the imperial concubine's palace attire, besides... how can this minister, how can she be qualified to accompany His Majesty to have dinner? I don't know, if I go back late, I'm afraid my in-laws will be worried."

Crown Princess?
Emperor Xiao sneered, apparently not taking Chu Zhi's hint to heart.

"Azhan grew up in the palace since he was a child. He is no different from my son. You also treat this place as your own home. When you dine with me, you treat it as if you dine with...the elders." Emperor Xiao touched the back molars. , This elder said that he was extremely reluctant, if it wasn't... that's all, "As for the Zhongyonghou Mansion, I will send someone to notify, you don't have to worry about it."

"His Majesty……"

"Master, please go ahead!"

Seeing that Chu Zhi was still about to speak, Li Quansheng interrupted her immediately, fearing that she would say something disrespectful and make Emperor Xiao angry.

Chu Zhi pursed his lips and said with a smile, "I'm sorry to bother you, Eunuch."

"The magistrate is very polite."

Chu Zhi's bedroom was next to Emperor Xiao, and Li Quansheng took him with him and left.

"Master." Xia'er's face is serious, although Xia'er doesn't talk much, but she is smart and careful, and she can see Huang Xiao's ulterior motives at a glance, "Your Majesty ordered you to enter the palace, and you are not allowed to return to the mansion. Now the young master is leaving. The servant is worried that His Majesty will take you as a hostage."

Regardless of the rumors about Han Zhan's disaster relief in the past few days, they all say that Han Zhan offended His Majesty before, and His Majesty will send him to rescue the disaster. If the errand is done well, everyone will be happy. The government will suffer, and now that Emperor Xiao ordered Chu Zhi to the palace, it is hard to guarantee that he didn't want to take her as a hostage.

Clinker Chu Zhi sneered: "If that's the case, it's fine."

"The meaning of the master..."

"It will take me some time to wash and change clothes. You quickly went to Concubine Xian. No matter where Concubine Xian is, you must invite her over."

His Majesty Chu Zhi was summoned to the palace, and had dinner alone with Emperor Xiao, and stayed in the palace at night, two steps away from Emperor Xiao's bedroom. After this night, no matter what happened or not, Chu Zhi's reputation would be ruined.

Xia'er understood the importance of the matter and hurriedly went to invite Concubine Xian.

Chu Zhi didn't like strangers to serve him, so he ordered the palace servants to serve him outside.

"Master, it's almost time, it's time to dress up."

In less than half an hour, the palace servants urged him outside.

Chu Zhi said: "Come in!"

When he saw the white gauze dress brought by the palace man, his eyes flickered slightly, "This color..."

The palace man misunderstood, and hurriedly said: "The color of this dress is ordered by His Majesty himself. I heard that the county lord loves jiao gauze, and the lotus petals are drawn and pierced with silver thread!"

Chu Zhi said: "I don't like this color, you go and change it to red!"

"This..." The palace man was in a dilemma, "But this servant only prepared this color for the county lord."

After a moment of silence, Chu Zhi said, "That's all."

Seeing Chu Zhi let go, the palace servants immediately smiled.

The white dress dragged the floor, and the palace servant combed Chu Zhi's flying bun again. There was only a jade hairpin in her hair, other than that, there was no other decoration, except the earrings were made of teardrop-shaped white jade.

After changing clothes, an old aunt came in.

Seeing the visitor, the palace people greeted one after another: "Servant, please greet my aunt."

"Everyone get up! Your Majesty ordered me to come and see if the county lord can take care of things." Saying hello to Chu Zhi, "I send the jade to the county lord to greet you."

"Auntie please get up quickly."

Su Yu got up, nodded to Chu Zhi with a smile, and then asked the palace servants who served her: "It's taken care of."

"Go back to aunt, I'm waiting to put on makeup."

"It seems that I came at the right time, His Majesty has already urged me."

Aunt Suyu obviously saw it all, and she still asked this question, obviously speaking to Chu Zhi.

With Aunt Suyu, the palace people present became more cautious, and Chu Zhi sat in front of the dowry and allowed herself to dress up.

Seeing that the palace servant wanted to trim her eyebrows into distant mountain eyebrows, Chu Zhi stopped her: "I don't need to trim my eyebrows anymore."

"The county lord's eyebrows are indeed very good, but everything here should be based on your majesty's preferences. I believe the Zhongyonghou's mansion also thinks the same way." Su Yu looked at Chu Zhi with a smile, his tone was gentle, but he couldn't say anything.

This is threatening Chu Zhi with the safety of the Hou Mansion.

Chu Zhi lowered his eyes and smiled: "Then listen to Auntie!"

Looking at herself in the mirror with a very different style, Chu Zhi became interested. She wanted to see what kind of woman His Majesty liked.

Those who came to put makeup on Chu Zhi were all excellent flowers and mothers.

Not long after, Chu Zhi looked at himself in the mirror and could hardly recognize him.

A pair of distant mountain eyebrows are cold and aloof, and the water-like autumn eyes are painted into peach blossom eyes, inadvertently drifting a bit of charm, but there is no dust in the eyes, revealing indifference and coldness, delicate and small nose, delicate and full cherry lips , the skin is like snow, can be broken by blowing bullets, and she is dressed in fluttering white clothes, like a saint descending to the world, unattainable, even more icy and pure than the jade hairpin on her temples, indifferent as water.
