Empress is in the harem again

Chapter 80 Pain
Shen Xi secretly despised him for a second, pretending, wouldn't he know that Concubine Xian was there?Only a fool would believe it.

As soon as the voice of complaining in her heart fell, Concubine Xian's gentle voice was full of tenderness, "The concubine is discussing the Mid-Autumn Festival with Sister Li Concubine, no, the father-in-law of the Ministry of Rites is also guarding here."

The affectionate pupils in the eyes were obviously different from surprise.

The corner of Shen Xi's mouth twitched.

His eyes fell on Rong Jinli. Today, he has shed his gloom and put on a white robe. His temperament is like that of a handsome young man, with a smile on his lips. The world seems to have lost its due brilliance, like an immortal , sitting there, it is a painting of mountains and rivers, and the warm and jade-like atmosphere makes people unable to take their eyes off
Shen Xi's glass-like almond eyes were mixed with darkness and ambiguity.

Curse secretly, what a monster.

The father-in-law who was mentioned was still kneeling on the ground to greet the emperor, but the other party didn't even give him a look, and even ignored his existence.

But it was a little easier for him.

From the corner of his eye, Rong Jinli glanced at Shen Xi who was standing there without expression, and slowly sat down next to Shen Xi's previous position.

"Oh? Then it's really a coincidence that I came here."

Shen Xi answered subconsciously, "It's not too late to leave now."

She realized later that everyone in the hall was staring at her, and then realized what she had said.

Shen Xi bears everyone's gaze and pulls a smile abruptly.

"What the concubine means is that since the emperor has entrusted us with this matter, it is natural that we have to handle it properly. The emperor's visit at this moment will inevitably wipe out the discussion between the concubine and the concubine Xian."

The tone was euphemistic and slight, but the words did not mean that he still wanted to apologize for the sentence just now.

Rong Jinli sat and looked at her deeply, his gentle face seemed a little stinky.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Concubine Xian quickly appeared and said, "It doesn't matter, the emperor is busy with state affairs, so having time to visit my sister is something that all the sisters in the harem envy."

After a pause, he bowed to Rong Jinli, "Your Majesty, that concubine will not bother you and Concubine Li, and I will take my leave first."

Rong Jinli nodded, not paying too much attention to it.

Instead, his gaze stayed on Shen Xi, affectionate and sinister.

Shen Xi's heart felt cold when she was watched, and she lowered her head, "What's the matter with the emperor coming here as a concubine?"

"It's nothing, as Concubine Xian said, I just came to see you, look, you've lost a lot of weight."

Rong Jinli put his arms on the edge of the chair, supported his forehead, and stared straight at Shen Xi.

When Shen Xi heard this, his whole face was distorted in anger, obviously mocking her.

Losing weight, gaining weight is almost the same.

Shen Xi replied with a half-smile, "I'm afraid the emperor is dazzled."

"Really?" Rong Jinli said in an undeniable tone.

Shen Xi smiled and didn't speak, the air was suddenly silent.

Rong Jinli sipped the tea that came out of his mouth, fiddled with the jade pendant on his waist, his eyes as deep as ice were erratic, and he couldn't see through some kind of thoughts emanating from them.

"My concubine wants me to go one after another. Could it be that she doesn't want me to come and see you?"

Shen Xi drooped her eyes, her eyelashes twitching a little, "This concubine is not afraid that the emperor is too busy."

"Actually, the emperor doesn't know. The ministers and concubines think about it during the day and at night. Of course they think about it. Even in their dreams, they can't get rid of the emperor's thoughts. Sometimes even thinking about it hurts their hearts. They can't even eat anymore. .”

Before anyone could react, Shen Xi's painting style changed, and she covered her heart with her slender white hands, looking very painful.
