After the first fool

Chapter 181 Calculation
Inside the imperial study room, the lights were bright, and the oil lamp covered with a white lamp cover illuminated the whole room as if it were daytime. Bai Zixu buried his head in the dragon case, and his silhouette was refracted by the light on the gray wall, slightly swaying.

"Concubine Xue is taking a break?" Throwing the imperial pen aside casually, Bai Zixu rubbed his sore shoulders, and looked at Li Quan who entered the hall, with a clear voice and a touch of joy.

Li Quan gave a thousand calls, "Yes, the imperial concubine has been unloaded early, where is the emperor planning to resettle tonight? The servant will make arrangements immediately."

"Let's go to Fengqi Palace." Bai Zixu sighed slightly, and glanced at the papers placed on the bright yellow dragon case. The emperor's uncle's power in the court was growing day by day, and even the Ministry of Rites began to make papers. To build a mansion for him, Bai Zixu thought that he hadn't set foot in Fengqi Palace in the past half month, so he became interested, and wanted to see Mo Xiaoran and talk to her, it would be best to relieve the coldness of the two Relationship.

If they want to contain Bai Qingluo and Bai Mo in the future, I'm afraid she will have to help them.

Bai Zixu's calculations were clanging, but he missed it. How could Mo Xiaoran be the one who let him take advantage of him?Has he ever benefited from Mo Xiaoran?

The corner of Li Quan's mouth twitched, looking at Bai Zixu's determination to win, he really couldn't bear to pour cold water on him at this time, so he could only order the palace staff to prepare for the dragon and set off for Fengqi Palace.

The night is as cool as water, the sky is as black as splashed ink, the flower buds in the peach blossom forest are swaying with the branches in the evening wind, and the moonlight shines down on the ground. Mo Xiaoran is standing behind the desk, holding a pen and practicing calligraphy, and she just crossed the road with her. Compared with the handwriting in the past, it is definitely a rapid progress.

"Miss' handwriting is really beautiful." Xiaozhu boasted while grinding.

Mo Xiaoran casually threw the brush away, and cast a sidelong glance at her: "Can you read?" Pretty?Just kidding, her level can also be written to the point where people can understand it, and it definitely has nothing to do with beauty.

Xiao Zhu rubbed the tip of his nose in embarrassment: "I don't know the servant girl, but what the young lady wrote must be the best."

"Better than Qingfeng?" Mo Xiaoran joked with her eyes narrowed.

Xiao Zhu's cheeks suddenly turned red, like the red glow of the setting sun, "Miss!"

"Stop!" Mo Xiaoran hastily stopped her acting coquettishly, "I won't follow your tricks, just save yourself."

Putting the copied copybook back to its original position, she stretched herself, and was just about to go to bed when she heard the sound of footsteps coming from far and near, coming from outside the closed palace door. Quite a few, Mo Xiaoran's smiling face suddenly darkened a little, she winked at Xiao Zhu, and didn't bother to change her clothes, she went straight to the soft couch at the front of the bedroom and sat down, except for Bai Zi, who could come here with dignity at this time Xu who else?
Could it be that Liao Xue is pregnant and Concubine Shu is favored, and he is not satisfied?Why do you want to come here to find abuse?
Mo Xiaoran's clear almond eyes flashed a trace of teasing, she casually picked up the teacup on the low table, and moistened her lips.

"The emperor is here--" Li Quan's signature male duck voice broke the silence inside and outside Fengqi Palace.

The door of the palace creaked and was pushed open from the outside, and the clear moonlight slanted in. Mo Xiaoran was sitting on the soft couch, under the dim oil lamp, wearing a luxurious skirt, which set off her even more elegantly. With the buttoned placket, the snow-white slender neck is slightly raised, like an elegant white swan, with a hint of heroism and lingering in the brows, without losing the atmosphere.

Bai Zixu's heart trembled slightly. At this moment, he suddenly realized that this woman was actually not ugly or ugly. She was even much prettier than the concubines in the palace.

"Your majesty is really free." Mo Xiaoran laughed in a toneless way, anyway, she and Bai Zixu seldom had a peaceful conversation, most of the time they were tit for tat.

Bai Zixu narrowed his eyes in displeasure, "I've been busy with trifles for half a month, and I've wronged the queen."

Wronged?

Mo Xiaoran raised her eyebrows slightly: "No grievance, no grievance." She wished that this person would not come here for the rest of her life, if it wasn't for the reason that many people outside Fengqi Palace were secretly watching, she would have climbed over the wall a long time ago. After leaving the palace, how could it be possible to stay here honestly for half a month?
"I heard that Concubine Xue Gui is pregnant," Mo Xiaoran said with a smile, her eyes burning, "Shouldn't the emperor visit her more often? This pregnant woman needs her husband to be by her side at all times, so she feels at ease. Only then can you take good care of your baby.” So, wherever you come from, just go where you are.

Mo Xiaoran's order to chase away guests made Bai Zixu feel a little uncomfortable, "I came here specially, why are you pushing me away in such a hurry?"

Did anyone beg him to come?Mo Xiaoran pretended to ignore it, and made Bai Zixu so angry that he tightened his fingers slightly, and said coldly: "It seems that even if I won't come again in the future, the queen doesn't care?"

"Yes." Mo Xiaoran nodded calmly, and the complexions of many palace people in the bedroom changed suddenly. Which concubine would dare not show the emperor face in public?There was only one Mo Xiaoran.

They lowered their heads one after another, fearing that they would be hurt.

Li Quan took a look at the livid-faced Bai Zixu, and secretly cursed, "Look, if you say don't come, you'll make yourself feel uncomfortable, won't you?"When did the emperor please the empress?

"Hmph," Bai Zixu snorted coldly, and walked away with a flick of his sleeves. He was really deceived by lard, and he would actually come to see this hateful woman.

"Your Majesty, go slowly." Mo Xiaoran kept waving goodbye to his back.

"Your Majesty?" Li Quan asked hesitantly when he heard the laughter coming from Fengxi Palace.

Bai Zixu's legs were blown by the wind, and his face was so cold that water could be wrung out, "Go back to the imperial study, I really shouldn't have come here."

A large group of people came in a hurry, and then left in a mighty way, waving their sleeves, not taking a cloud with them.

In the Chaoyang Hall, Liao Xue was sitting by the window with a sullen face, her breathing was heavy and slow, and the veins on the back of the hand holding the armrest of the chair were throbbing violently.

"Go, ask Ben Gong about the queen's recent itinerary."

"Yes." A court lady took orders immediately, always feeling that the palace was about to become restless.

On the second day, the fog was blown away by a ray of sunlight. Mo Xiaoran woke up early, washed up, and did some exercise. Taking advantage of the sunrise, she led Xiao Zhugang to go to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to greet her.

Without bringing any extra maids with them, the master and servant leisurely headed towards the Palace of Compassion and Peace.

The summer flowers in the imperial garden were in full bloom, like flames, burning in clusters, large areas of fiery red, and the random flowers gradually became charming.

"It's so fragrant." Mo Xiaoran couldn't help but praised, Xiaozhu was about to speak, but from the corner of her eyes, she caught a glimpse of a group of palace people coming from the corner of the red lacquered corridor directly in front, and the leader was naturally Liao Xue in a loose skirt , she was talking in a low voice with Concubine Shu beside her, followed by rows of maids and eunuchs, like stars holding the moon.

"Tsk, bad luck." Mo Xiaoran loosened her five fingers, threw the freshly broken flower branch on the ground, stomped it hard with her embroidered shoes, and crushed it into the soil, with a graceful smile on her face.

"My concubine has seen the Queen's concubine."

"Slaves see the empress."

"Get up." Mo Xiaoran raised her left hand slightly, and glanced at Liao Xue's slightly protruding abdomen. It's only been two months, and her stomach is still a little invisible. Walk with extreme caution.

"I'm pregnant, why do I still have to go to say hello?" Are you afraid of any accidents on the way?Mo Xiaoran was a little surprised, because Bai Zixu's concern for Liao Xue did not prevent her from greeting her?
"Courtesy cannot be broken." Liao Xue smiled softly, and whispered back.

Mo Xiaoran nodded slightly, but didn't say much.

"It's a coincidence that I ran into my sister here, let's go to the Palace of Compassion and Peace together?" Concubine Shu suggested, the three of them would go separately to greet each other every day, so they met by chance today, so naturally they would go there together.

Mo Xiaoran didn't refuse either, she raised her foot and walked in the front, followed by a large group of people, heading towards the Palace of Compassion and Peace.

"I heard that the emperor went to my sister's place yesterday?" Liao Xue was supported by the palace maid, walked to Mo Xiaoran's side, and asked in a low voice, her face was covered with an extremely gentle smile, but she couldn't see the slightest bit in her eyes. Smile, only a piece of frost.

Mo Xiaoran raised her eyebrows slightly, "Your sister is really well informed."

Is there any secret in this palace?

"It's spread all over the palace. I'm not in good health these days. The emperor is worried about it and always runs to me. Now my sister is also favored by the emperor. How can my sister not know?" There was a clear laughter like a silver bell. , spit out from Liao Xue's red lips, that smile, for some reason, always gave Mo Xiaoran a feeling of chills down her spine. Her sixth sense was cultivated from countless times of life and death, and she never made a mistake. He narrowed his eyes dangerously, and his cold eyes fell on Liao Xue's body, as if sizing up and scrutinizing.

Why did she feel that this man must be planning something?

Frowning secretly, Mo Xiaoran couldn't help being on guard.

Arriving at the Palace of Compassion and Peace, the majestic palace sits quietly in front of it, with armored imperial guards guarding every corner, and the golden glazed tiles shone brilliantly in the bright sunlight, which is extremely dazzling.

Mo Xiaoran and Liao Xue both lifted their feet up the bluestone steps outside the hall. Before the maids in the rear followed, Mo Xiaoran only felt a strong wind coming from the right side. She subconsciously turned her body halfway, and a black figure suddenly flashed in front of her eyes. But, immediately, there was a loud bang.

"Ah, empress!" Liao Xue's maid screamed, and everyone stared dumbfounded at Liao Xue who suddenly rolled down the stone steps. Her hair was already messed up, her face was pale, and she held her belly tightly with one hand. The spread skirt was quickly dyed red by the red liquid, her eyes looked at Mo Xiaoran standing on the stone steps in disbelief, her lips trembled a few times.

Seeing this, Concubine Shu immediately squatted down and ordered to the flustered palace servants: "Go and get the imperial physician."

The rioting crowd kept wandering outside the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and Concubine Shu didn't dare to touch Liao Xue at all. The smell of blood wafted from her body, floating in the air, making people sick.

Liao Xue's face was almost ashen, she looked at Mo Xiaoran in horror, she opened and closed her lips, and a low voice just happened to reach the ears of everyone around her.

"Sister...why..."

The eyes of the maid next to her flickered slightly, her eyes were red, she pointed at Mo Xiaoran who was standing tall, and asked in pain: "Empress, why did you push the imperial concubine? She broke the dragon."

The luxurious fiery red clothes drew sharp arcs in the air. Mo Xiaoran straightened her back and stood coldly on the spot, looking coldly at the rioting crowd below, at their blaming gazes, at the fallen On the ground, a pool of blood soaked Liao Xue from under her body.

The corners of the cool mouth raised slowly, "I see."

In order to calculate yourself, can you even use the child in your stomach?

Heart, slightly cold.
