Chapter 55

Following her hand, Tan Wenhao also raised his head to look at the sky. Tan Wenhao had grown accustomed to such a sunset since he was a child, and he didn't feel anything special about it.However, this is the first time that someone is watching the sunset by his side. His bright eyes reflect the sunlight, and a faint smile hangs on his face. It is not the kind of faint and indifferent smile, but the kind of joy from the heart. "Listening to your words, it seems that you have never worked hard in your life?" Tan Wenhao chuckled, and leaned lightly on the pillar, looking at Du Xiaoyue's profile.

"Ha! Well..." Du Xiaoyue smiled a little uncomfortably, because her temper was too loose, she never took the initiative but fought for anything, she just did her own thing well and it was easy, the word "endeavor" seemed to have always been insulated from Du Xiaoyue up. "This is also one of the reasons why I want to leave the palace! Life in the palace is not suitable for me. I am lazy by nature, and I don't have the long-term patience to deal with the right and wrong in the palace.

As the mother of a country, I personally think that Li Guifei and Tong Guifei are the best candidates.Although some of their actions are meaningless or naive in my opinion, their mentality is good-in the palace, everything must be fought for, otherwise once the beauty grows old, when the favor is gone , but also have someone to rely on; at the same time, they are also able to take care of the harem, which I think should be very handy.

But I can't, I don't have great ambitions, I don't have compassion, and I don't know how to survive in the palace.What other people do and think seems to me to be absurdity, and when all the pomp is gone, it is just a dream.No matter what, I am out of tune with everything in this palace. "

"In other words, you don't even bother to compete with those concubines?" Tan Wenhao didn't expect Du Xiaoyue to see everything so indifferently, and felt that some things were not that she didn't understand, but that she didn't want to understand .If she really wants to fight with those women in the harem with her mind and ability, I'm afraid she will be the last winner!It's just that she disdains it!

"Heh! If I really say that, I'm too disrespectful to you, the emperor!" Du Xiaoyue laughed, turned her head, and looked at Tan Wenhao, who was dressed in fine clothes, leaning on the pillar like that. The prestige of a king is gone, what is left is a kind of lazy elegance.The shallow smile is different from the normal smile, it has a bit more human beauty, and looks more like an ordinary person; and at that moment, the shrewd eyes were also coated with a layer of gold by the sun, Du Xiaoyue's eyes flickered straightly.Don't start, don't let yourself look at him again, breathe lightly, and say slowly, "You should also know that everything the concubines in the harem are fighting for revolves around you. Since I don't care about the palace, naturally I don't care about you, let alone fight for those worthless things."

Although she had guessed this fact a long time ago, hearing her say it in person really hurt a little... hurt her self-esteem!Anyway, I am also the king of a country, but she actually despises me! "Why? Why are you not interested in me?" After a while, Tan Wenhao spoke again, a little eager and a little lost.

"You are not my beloved!" Du Xiaoyue turned her head, smiled, and said firmly, "Besides, don't you think it's better for me to be your friend and companion than your queen or concubine? In this harem, who would talk to you like this? Who would dare to talk to you like this?"

"You are the first one who said that you want to be my friend!" Tan Wenhao lowered his eyes slightly, suddenly chuckled, and said with a little self-mockery, "But listening to your words, why do you seem to be sympathizing with me?! "

Du Xiaoyue was slightly stunned, he was right, Du Xiaoyue still felt full of sympathy for him, especially when she knew that he didn't even know who her biological mother was. "Whatever you think, if I really sympathize with you, it's because I regard you as a person, not as an emperor!" Du Xiaoyue stood up straight, with a flat face, and lightly parted her lips.At the same time, I also warned myself in my heart: "Don't put too much emotion on the emperor's family, otherwise, the sympathy will really overflow!"

Stepping into Jiaoyin Pavilion for the first time, Du Xiaoyue was really not used to flirting with other people, especially a woman she didn't like very much!But what can be done about it?Last night, just after sitting at the dinner table with Tan Wenhao, the palace servants from Jiaoyin Pavilion came to report that Concubine Li Gui was unwell, and asked the emperor to come and have a look. This matter was left to the Queen; early today, the Queen Mother left the palace, and before leaving, she specifically told Du Xiaoyue to go to see Concubine Li Gui on her behalf - she must have royal blood.Therefore, Du Xiaoyue had no choice but to step into the Jiaoyin Pavilion with a large number of people and a large number of gifts to express condolences to Concubine Li Gui for her hard work.

As soon as she entered the gate of Jiaoyin Pavilion, "The empress is here!" the deacon's eunuch shouted in a shrill voice, and Du Xiaoyue immediately smiled, smiling at the eunuchs and maids who knelt down upon hearing the words.It's a pity that the master didn't come out. Du Xiaoyue signaled the kneeling eunuchs to get up, and at the same time entered the main hall of Jiaoyin Pavilion, and at this moment, a delicate and graceful voice sounded:
"Greetings to the empress, the queen's sister is here, and my sister is far away to welcome you!" In a blink of an eye, Li Qianrou came out of the room, wearing an emerald green smoked gauze skirt, embroidered with a few large peonies on it, and her hair was slightly tied up. It was loose, with only a pearl and jasper hairpin inserted, and there was a kind of sickness and beauty on the pale face.Judging by her appearance, she must have experienced severe morning sickness just now!

"Hehe, my sister doesn't need to be polite." Du Xiaoyue chuckled, but she didn't go up to Li Qianrou, "Your sister is not feeling well, so she should rest more. Sigh, seeing my memory, I said that my sister should rest more, but the result? Why are you standing still? Help your master to sit down!" Du Xiaoyue turned her face to a court lady of Emperor Li Qianrou, and the girl stared at Du Xiaoyue with a defensive look. On the other hand, the red silk subconsciously took a step back.Don't need to think too much, Du Xiaoyue also knows that girl is the one who slapped the red silk last time!
"Sister, please sit down first!" Li Qianrou's face changed slightly. Du Xiaoyue's sudden visit today caught her off guard. Originally, she was dressed like this to wait for the emperor to come to Jiaoyin Pavilion, but it was Du Xiaoyue who didn't want to welcome her!
Du Xiaoyue didn't refuse, and directly took the seat at the top. After taking a sip of the tea brought by the maid, she slowly spoke: "I heard that my sister is not feeling well, she has severe morning sickness, and she throws up whatever she eats. The emperor is very upset after hearing this." I'm in a hurry, unfortunately, the emperor is busy with business recently, and I can't visit my sister in person for the time being, so I asked my palace to send some supplements and rewards. Come here, and present the things!"

After getting the order, the palace people kept bringing up those rewards. There were twenty or thirty kinds of food alone, such as high-quality thousand-year-old ginseng, high-quality bird's nest, not to mention clothes, jewelry and jade. "Sister, these are the emperor's wishes." Du Xiaoyue looked at the figures of the palace people coming and going, and Qingzhu on the side also took advantage of the opportunity to present the gift list to Li Qianrou with both hands. Du Xiaoyue then continued, "I also want to I gave my sister some gifts to congratulate her on her happy baby. Unfortunately, after thinking about it, the things I can give are nothing more than those given by the emperor. Ben Gong has prepared a rather unique gift for his younger sister—it was obtained by accident before entering the palace, but Ben Gong thinks it is more practical to give to his younger sister! Red silk, send this gift from Ben Gong! "

The red silk order did give Li Qianrou something wrapped in red satin with both hands, but when he returned it, he gave Du Xiaoyue a strange and dissatisfied look.After Li Qianrou took it, she wanted to open it for a closer look, but Du Xiaoyue panicked and urgently stopped: "Sister, good things can only taste good when there is no one around!"

"Then... my sister thanked my sister for her gift!" Li Qianrou hesitated, but immediately handed the things to the close girl with a smile on her face, and at the same time gave Du Xiaoyue a blessing.

"Hey... my sister doesn't need to do any salutes. The most important thing for my sister now is to take care of your body. You know, what you are conceiving now may be the next king!" With 'true sincerity' concern and open and careless reasoning, the Queen's duty is very good!Du Xiaoyue couldn't help but give herself a hundred points in her heart!

"Thank you sister for your concern! My sister will definitely take good care of her body!" Li Qianrou also smiled, remaining unchanged in order to cope with the ever-changing situation. Let's turn around!"

"No!" Du Xiaoyue refused without thinking, and then said earnestly, "Sister, have you forgotten that you are pregnant with the dragon species now that you need to rest more? If my sister is exhausted due to my fault, I will The crime of the palace is serious!"

"Hehe, my sister is too worried." Li Qianrou, who was a little embarrassed at first, was in a good mood after hearing Du Xiaoyue's last sentence, "My sister heard from the imperial doctor that after pregnancy, you have to move around in an appropriate amount. The kids are fine!"

"That's it!" Du Xiaoyue suddenly realized, and nodded her head, "It sounds interesting, it seems that my sister listens to the imperial physician very much! Who is the imperial physician who said this? It seems to understand some truths, Another day, I would also like to invite this imperial physician to show me, recently I have been sleeping restlessly at night!"

"Imperial Physician Hu from the Imperial Medical Office. Physician Hu is young, but his medical skills are really good." Li Qianrou recommended to Du Xiaoyue, "However, Imperial Physician Hu has recently asked for leave to return home to visit relatives. If my sister wants to call Imperial Physician Hu, she may have to Wait some time!"
