Cannon Fodder Raiders: Concubine Ai is capricious

Chapter 127 Why Am I So Good-looking (Part [-])
Xia Houjing was silent for an unprecedented moment, and then said: "Since my concubine is tired, let's go to rest."

Zhu Haitang:? !
Strange.

It's rare that this guy didn't plan to do color today. Zhu Haitang was also happy to have some leisure time. He got up and walked around the screen to the bed and climbed onto the bed. Zhu Haitang glanced at the sunshine outside the window, and then put down the curtains on both sides of the bed. It suddenly became much darker. Zhu Haitang huddled inside, pulled up the quilt and lay down, closed her eyes, and began to feel sleepy.

Xia Houjing still sat on the same spot, looking down and playing with the black and white chess pieces in his hands, making a clattering sound. The hall in Nuoda was surrounded by silence, so his voice seemed particularly empty.

Especially the sound was not continuous, it came and went, it was more like a kitten's paw scratching at the tip of Zhu Haitang's heart, unable to grasp it, but itching.

Zhu Haitang couldn't help but prick up his ears to listen, and now he couldn't even sleep anymore.

Her voice of tossing and turning was very soft, but it was still captured sensitively by Xia Houjing. The man raised his head, his eyes seemed to be able to see the little woman inside through the screen.

Soon after, the sound of the chess pieces disappeared.

The room suddenly returned to calm.

I wish Haitang had no more noise, and soon went to meet Duke Zhou for a tryst...

The emperor stood up and walked silently to the side of the bed. The curtain of the bed was pulled open a thin slit, and the light in the room suddenly shot in. After all, it didn't shine directly from the window. The light was not very strong, but gentle. It hit Zhu Haitang's rosy white face while sleeping, and the fine hair between his forehead was scattered in a mess, giving him a peaceful appearance.

Xia Houjing looked at this scene, and by some strange coincidence, he leaned down and pressed a kiss on that smooth little face.When he stood up, he couldn't help but stretched out his hand and gently rubbed the place where he had just kissed with his thumb, and whispered softly: "What do you want..."

No one answered.

When Zhu Haitang was asleep, basically no thunder could wake her up, and Yu Xia Houjing's words and movements at this moment were still very gentle.

That night, Xia Houjing did not stay overnight in Jiaofang Hall.

When Zhu Haitang woke up, the sky had already darkened, and a few stars had already hung over the night.

Xia Houjing has also left.

After dinner, she remembered that Xia Houjing had to check her calligraphy practice during the day. She thought it was just for digestion. Zhu Haitang rarely practiced calligraphy on several pages. She looked at the fonts on the paper that were becoming more and more impressive. Zhu Haitang took a breath and felt a sense of accomplishment. Originally, she had learned soft-pen calligraphy, but she was still young at that time and had not written for many years. At first glance, it felt strange to hold a pen in this ancient time. Fortunately, after practicing for a while, the impression deep in my memory was gradually awakened, and now the writing was no longer as unpleasant as Xia Houjing's disgust.

It must be that she was really tired from riding a horse. Even though she slept a lot in the afternoon, she was not affected by it at night. After practicing calligraphy, Zhu Haitang went back to bed and fell asleep. The moment before she fell asleep, she was still worried that it would be sooner or later. To gain weight and gain weight...
For several days after that, Xia Houjing never came again, and the days went by, and it was the day of autumn hunting.

Before dawn, Cai Cai began to call Zhu Haitang to get up, Zhu Haitang was half asleep, half awake, sleepy, unable to open her eyes, and at the mercy of others.Cai Cai pressed her on the dressing table and tidied her up.

"Your Majesty, it's time to wake up, everything is cleaned up, we're leaving." After cleaning up, Cai Cai finally couldn't help shouting.

I thought that all the ladies in the palace were here to clean up, and their Tang concubine would be woken up by sao no matter what, but who knew the beauty of life, but she slept like a dead pig.

Zhu Haitang opened her eyes, and in the mirror, a beautiful woman with red lips and white teeth came into view. Zhu Haitang was so frightened that she fell asleep and went halfway: "Hold the grass, where did this beauty come from?!"

Caicai: "..."

Everyone: "..."

I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen such shameless people who boasted so much about themselves.

I know you are the number one beauty, but you don’t have to say it out yourself, you still have such a surprised expression...

Zhu Haitang's exclamation made everyone forget to react.

No one paid any attention, and after a while Zhu Haitang realized by herself: "Is this really me? My God, it's really hard to find in heaven and earth when I grow up like this, and the emperor is really, such a big beauty, unexpectedly If you can, go and dissect people ruthlessly. It’s so beautiful, you shouldn’t have to hide it, why do you have to show your face... Wait, Cai Cai!"

"Your Majesty?" Caicai responded quickly, but she was afraid that she would speak boldly again in the next second.

Zhu Haitang lowered her head and glanced at her outfit, "What day is it today, why are you wearing it so grandly?"

"Young lady, you forgot, I'm going to hunt in autumn today."

"Autumn hunting? But I want to ride a horse. It's hard to wear such a solemn carriage, so what kind of horse should I ride?"

"Your Majesty, you are going to the hunting ground today. You don't need to ride a horse on the way, as long as you follow His Majesty's side. Not only will you go today, but many other concubines of sufficient status and the family members of many ministers in the harem will also go. Let us As the head of the four concubines in the harem, naturally she can't be suppressed on the stage." Cai Cai was full of ambition and hesitation as she spoke.

Zhu Haitang: "...that's great."

It was like a beauty pageant, she didn't dress so grandly on the day she entered the palace.

In fact, according to Zhu Haitang's current status and class, she was originally eligible to participate, but because she was under confinement, she had to ask Xia Houjing again, but no matter what, it was fine if she could go.

Hunting occurs twice a year, divided into spring hunting and autumn hunting. Each time is a national event, with great pomp and ceremony. It can be regarded as a demonstration of national prestige and allows the barbarian tribes on the border to see what it is. The country is strong.

Zhu Haitang tidied up properly, and took her palace people to the door to wait.

It wasn't until seeing the pomp at the door that Zhu Haitang realized that the last time was not strictly speaking an autumn hunt, but a small hunt held by Xia Houjing to satisfy her. The incident, coupled with the fact that her body was in a small state for a while, led to the termination of the hunt.

But today is the real spectacle of the autumn hunting. The majestic procession lined the ten-mile long street. The accompanying palace people alone were a huge crowd, as if the imperial city had moved its capital.

Under the long and winding stairs at the entrance of the inner palace, there is a huge carriage parked. The body is all golden yellow. It must be Xia Houjing's Luanjia, and the carriages following behind must be them, the concubines of the harem. that's it.

Zhu Haitang was about to walk over when he caught a glimpse of a guard of honor walking not far behind him from the corner of his eye.
