"Smells so good..." Zhao Zongheng smiled with narrowed eyes, leaned over and kissed her collarbone again, his hot breath falling on her with a bit of itchiness.

"Ah Chi, did Si Yirong do a good job in that piece of work?"

"Should I be rewarded?"

"..."

Si Ningchi is a little funny, so is this dog emperor here to ask for a reward?

Zhao Zongheng smiled and rubbed her neck, and Siningchi had to sweep away the jewelry on the table. In the end, she leaned against the dressing table and kissed him for a long time.

Si Ningchi reached out and touched the dampness at the end of his hair. He paused slightly and pushed his hand away, clasping his clothes and saying, "My hair is still wet. Go wash up and then come back."

"Follow your orders." Although Zhao Zongheng was a little reluctant to be interrupted, he thought it was inappropriate to not cleanse his face after being busy for a long time. He immediately stood up from Shanruliu and called Wang Chengxiang to come in to wait. Si Ningchi turned around and called Su Yun to prepare for the bath. Soup.

When he came out from the bath, Siningchi heard the strong wind and rain falling outside. The sound of raindrops hitting the eaves was especially clear in the night.

Si Ningchi was leaning against the window watching the rain. Zhao Zongheng came out and saw this scene. He paused slightly and walked forward, stretched out his hand to hug Si Ningchi from behind and asked in a low voice: "What are you looking at?"

Si Ningchi leaned on Zhao Zongheng's chest, half-closed his eyes and curved his lips with a smile, "I didn't see anything, I'm just waiting for the emperor to sleep in peace~"

She turned around and put her arms around Zhao Zongheng's neck, her eyes moving and affectionate.

The sound of rain outside the window is getting louder, and the figures entangled in the warmth of the bed and curtains are inseparable, and they seem to be silent under the cover of the rain curtain.

Only Si Ningchi knew how vicious this dog emperor was, as if he wanted to kill her.

When she got up the next day, her legs seemed to be made of mud, and she could not stand firmly. She slumped down and ate two meals, then fell into a coma until the evening.

Si Ningchi leaned lazily on the soft couch. When she opened the window, she could still smell the smell of soil outside. The world washed by the rain was particularly clean, and even the blowing wind made people feel refreshed. She leaned against the window and stared at the coming night. .

"Mother, Shen Ting is back." Su Yun reported inside.

"Let him come in." Si Ningchi narrowed his eyes slightly, and when he turned his head, he saw Shen Ting stepping into the hall with a wind and rain aura.

"This servant has met the Queen." Shen Ting came forward before he could, and stood at a later position and bowed in greeting.

"Leaving the palace?" Si Ningchi glanced at Shen Ting, then averted his eyes and asked quietly: "Who did you go to see?"

Shen Ting's eyes trembled slightly, and his bowed body did not dare to straighten, but instead bent deeper and deeper.

He opened his mouth and said in a hoarse voice: "To tell you the truth, I'm going to see my adoptive father."

"Last night, my adoptive father died of illness." Shen Ting's adoptive father was the groom of the Shen family. After Shen Ting entered the palace, this groom also came out of the Shen family. He made a living by pulling people, but he was not a groom. What's different.

"What kind of disease can go away so quickly?" Si Ningchi frowned, straightened up slightly and asked in a deep voice.

"It's an acute fever." Shen Ting pursed his lips and lowered his head as if he was a little sad. It was an acute illness and there was no way to treat it. He died in just one night.

"My servant found a good place to bury him, burned the paper, kowtowed and then came back." Shen Ting said in a low voice.

It's normal for people like them not to have a decent funeral. Shen Ting's status is different now. He can't stay outside the palace for a long time. It is solemn to collect the bones of his adoptive father and lay them in peace. Kowtowing in front of the grave is to express his gratitude for the adoption. kindness.

Seeing Shen Ting's expression, Si Ningchi softened a bit, and even his tone softened: "I have never cared about you. It's late at night today. You can go down and rest." Shen Ting thanked En and left. After leaving the palace, he raised his eyes and looked at the familiar courtyard in front of him in a daze for a moment.

Su Yongde and others outside had obviously heard the conversation in the hall. When they saw Shen Ting coming out, they all immediately stepped forward to express some relief.

Shen Ting bowed his head and thanked them one by one, and walked towards his small courtyard with a slightly depressed expression.

"Shen Ting is also a poor person..." Su Yongde sighed silently and shook his head as if he couldn't bear it.

"It's okay, I have no father, no mother, no relatives, no relatives, and I feel lighter." Su Yun said in a low voice: "Now that I have gained the respect of the queen, living a life of fine clothes and fine food in this palace is better than suffering hardships outside. ”

"That's true." Su Yongde nodded with deep understanding and said rather sourly: "Your Majesty values ​​Shen Ting more than she does us."

"What are you talking about?" Su Yun glared at Su Yongde angrily and said, "If I didn't value you, why would I let you take care of everything in the outer courtyard of Fengwu Palace? Now I was complaining that the empress was partial. ?”

"If the queen hears these words, I will definitely skin you." Su Yun said fiercely.

"Ouch! Good sister, please say goodbye..." Su Yongde quickly reached out and slapped himself twice on the face, and said with a smile: "I'm a bitch, but I don't dare to anger the Queen."

"Humph."

Su Yun glared at Su Yongde angrily and waved him to watch outside the palace corridor to see if the emperor would come again.

Su Yongde hurriedly responded and turned around and went out.

After a while, Su Yongde ran back and said that the emperor had someone send a message and he would not be able to come today.

Si Ningchi had a good night's sleep. She woke up refreshed the next day and saw Wang Chengxiang arriving very happily. He said that the emperor had asked her to get ready and come to pick up the queen from the palace later. The emperor made arrangements in the front hall.

"Does it take so much trouble to get out of the palace?" Si Ningchi asked with a slight frown.

"The emperor has said that he and his wife will stay outside the palace for two days, so the affairs of the court must be carefully arranged." Wang Chengxiang explained with a smile.

"Living outside the palace?" Si Ningchi was quite surprised: "The ministers in the DPRK didn't stop him?"

Wang Chengxiang laughed twice.

There's no way to stop it?
Doesn't this stop it...

Si Ningchi dismissed Wang Chengxiang and called Suyun in. Since he was leaving the palace for a short stay, he really needed to tidy up.

Suyun asked doubtfully while cleaning up: "Your Majesty, where is the Emperor going to take your Majesty to live?"

Si Ningchi was also confused until she followed Zhao Zongheng all the way out of the capital to an ancient house in the suburbs. The house looked like it had been uninhabited for a long time. Even the ground seemed to have been cleaned not long ago, and there was a smell of decay in the wood. the taste of.

Although maintenance and repairs have been carried out in a timely manner, the difference between those who live there and those who do not is still quite obvious.

"When did the emperor secretly buy a house?" Si Ningchi looked at Zhao Zongheng suspiciously, and for a moment the suspicion of "a beautiful woman is hidden in a golden house" came into her mind.

"My mother-in-law once bought this." Zhao Zongheng said with a bit of nostalgia in his eyes. In fact, he had only lived in this house a handful of times. (End of chapter)
