empress and princess

When the King of Qin came, he was proud of the spring breeze, stepping on the night moon, shaking a folding fan in his hand, still wearing a red robe, bright eyes curved like the moon, and a generation of kings were suave and romantic.

She stepped into the Hanqing Palace, only Chu Huaimin was sitting there serving tea and waiting.

Looking up at the threshold, the two eyes met.

"Surprise I gave you, do you like it?" The first sentence of his mouth hit people's hearts so well. Looking at the candle in the wind, he saw that the smile on Qin Tangjing's lips was quite bad.

Chu Huaimin didn't change his face, stood up and stood still, and saluted gracefully: "As long as King Qin likes it." The appearance with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes was surprisingly obedient, needless to say, she really looked like a concubine who wanted to be favored.

Qin Tangjing stopped smiling and stared at the white clothes, "Don't ask me why I did this."

"Dare to ask...why?" She answered.

"You are so smart, how can you not guess the intention of the lonely king." Qin Tangjing waved the folding fan, very leisurely, "Why don't you guess."

"The courtiers are dull, and dare not guess the king's heart." Chu Huaimin smiled, but didn't guess.

In fact, it doesn't matter whether you guess or not, everyone knows it well.Qin Tangjing felt bored, his eyes couldn't help rolling up and giving her a supercilious look.

I don't like Chu Huaimin's gentle and polite appearance the most. How can it be so refreshing to compete in Chu State.It turns out that controlling everything and controlling the life and death of others is not so fun.

Sometimes the eldest princess is very clever, but sometimes she is a piece of wood and a dead muscle.

Concubine Concubine Feng Concubine, from now on will be Great Qin Concubine!

So Qin Tangjing looked at her concubine, and unceremoniously reached out to ask for it: "Today is the lonely king's birthday, is there a birthday gift?"

"Have."

"It really is. What is it?"

Not long after I asked this question, the maid quickly brought a bowl of soup, which was fragrant and very familiar - chicken soup.

"Not bad, very good." Qin Tang lifted the Jing bowl, smiling all over his eyes, "Gu Wang likes your birthday gift this year." It's not like the vulgar things offered by the minister Huali Huqiao, it's just a simple bowl of chicken soup, but The most practical, the most satisfying, the most popular.

I drank it many times during the war outside, and I didn't hold back, and I bottomed out in one breath.

The soup has a strong aroma, and I want three bowls in a row, all of which are in my stomach.In the end, Qin Tangjing put down the bowl with his swollen belly in his hands, stared at Chu Huaimin and added: "The lonely king will drink in the coming year."

coming year?coming year!

Chu Huaimin pretended not to understand what he was saying, and nodded speechlessly, as if he agreed.

"That's good, we've made a deal." Qin Tangjing rolled his eyes and assumed a child's posture, stretching out his little finger towards her, "Whoever repents is the watchdog."

But a bowl of chicken soup, if you ask for it, you will accept it.Chu Huaimin raised his hand, so the two little fingers intertwined and made a hook, and the thumbs pressed against each other.

At this moment, a ray of moonlight crept in outside the window, illuminating a thin scar on the side of the person's eyebrow.

"Late at night, the lonely king is tired. I don't want to toss back and forth, so I will lend you half of the bed." Qin Tangjing pursed her lips in satisfaction, and regardless of the bed owner's reaction, she stood up and stretched lazily.

In the birthday banquet, I was too sleepy tonight because I was too sleepy.

It is said to be 'borrowing', but it is actually occupying. The king of Qin only said one word. In the state of Qin, it was hard for the eldest princess to disobey.

Inside the screen was a light gauze tent, and Qin Tang Jing really used half of the bed according to her words, and the person sleeping on the other half was naturally her new concubine tonight.

As a concubine, sleeping on the same bed, it is only natural to do something.

However, Qin Tangjing was lying upright like a young nun who had no desires or desires. There was still half a human distance between the middle and the beauty on the inside of the bed, like the dividing line between the two countries, with a clear distinction.

At first no one crossed the line, but when the third watch came, Qin Tangjing couldn't hold his eyelids, rolled over, rolled to Chu Huaimin's side, put his hands on his soft waist, and just nestled into the fragrant and warm room. in the arms.

Chu Huaimin froze and held his breath, but he didn't see the person in his arms for a long time.

She kept the same posture until the fifth watch without closing her eyes, but Qin Tangjing had already slept for a while, she seemed to wake up with a slight movement, and Chu Huaimin immediately closed her eyes.

Qin Tangjing really woke up, her face was lightly kneaded a few times by her hands, and a low smile burst into her ear: "I have fulfilled my promise to marry you, Chu Huaimin, you...don't let me down."

Chu Huaimin still closed his eyes and did not move until dawn.

That night, it was rumored that King Qin favored the only concubine in the newly named harem.

It was absurd to make a woman a concubine, and within a few days, she was criticized by the old ministers of the Qin State.

However, once the dynasty changes, the old ministers have long been dismissed despite their high morals and prestige. The new dynasty does not lack women as ministers, and those new ministers who have benefited a lot from the reforms remain silent.

The old minister couldn't persuade the new minister, so he wrote a memorial to persuade the King of Qin with his own head.

However, King Qin, who has always been open-minded, still went his own way, staying in Hanqing Palace every night, and loving his new concubine very much.

Outsiders saw it, and inside and outside the palace, it was rumored that the new concubine was very popular for a time, and the sixth palace was the only one favored by the King of Qin. Later, even the whole world knew that the King of Qin made the princess of the Chu family a concubine!

Everyone in the world said that King Qin was absurd, extremely absurd!

"My servant has seen Concubine Chu." There was a maid saluting respectfully under the swing in the back garden.No matter what the rumors say, when everyone in the palace sees Chu Huaimin, they still respectfully salute and call her "Chu Concubine Empress" according to the palace rules.

Chu Huaimin also smiled lightly, and echoed faintly: "Excuse me."

After receiving the secret letter, Chen Hao turned around at this time, seeing no one approaching, he lowered his tone: "Eldest Princess, Your Majesty has experienced truth and falsehood, and the military map is indeed true."

"Try again." After thinking for a long time, Chu Huaimin folded his eyebrows and said, "We only have one chance, so it's better to be cautious."

"It has been explored five times, and the military strength and defensive formation of at least ten cities are consistent with the military plan. I think this map cannot be faked. Besides, the king is in a hurry, and the letter said that this is the last time."

Five times, she was already very cautious, but Chu Huaimin was still uneasy, she stood by the swing, shook the hanging rope with her hand, watched the swing swinging back and forth, and asked, "Is there Song Rong? "

"There is no news yet, life and death are unknown."

"Song Guo can't tolerate her, so where can she go?" Chu Huaimin raised his head and asked himself.

"Whether she lives or dies has nothing to do with us." Chen Hao gritted his teeth, "I still think that the eldest princess should leave Qin as soon as possible. The king has led the army to the border of Qin and Chu, and I am waiting for you to go back now. Eldest princess What are you waiting for if you haven’t returned for a long time?”

Chu Huaimin's eyes turned cold, Chen Hao quickly stepped back and lowered his head: "I am guilty."

Someone came from the opposite side, Chen Hao saw her from the corner of his eyes, gritted his teeth and took a few steps back.

"Concubine Chu's childlike innocence is still intact, do you like to play on the swing? Okay, okay, the lonely king is idle, and I just want to play with you." This voice came from King Qin who came out of the Shuyu Palace.

Chu Huaimin didn't put on a show, and Shi Shi sat on the swing.

Qin Tangjing pushed, and the swing swung high. When she fell back to the original place, she grabbed the sling but stopped tightly, resting her chin on her shoulder and said: "The lonely king just got the news that the six kingdoms seem to be gathering troops. Tell me, why is this?"

After speaking, he pushed again, which also pushed Chu Huaimin's heart towards the sharp knife.

"Why?" Chu Huaimin asked at the moment of falling.

"The lonely king doesn't know either. Maybe it's because the lonely king is too contemptuous of etiquette and disrupts the world's routines, so they raised the banner of 'the emperor of Qing Dynasty destroys Qin etiquette', and wanted to destroy Qin, a country where women confuse the court and the world. I am afraid that their own country will be involved one day, but who knows what they are planning."

Qin Tang smiled and said, "The lonely king, and you, Chu Huaimin, are the chief culprits of the six kingdoms' attack on Daqin."

As soon as the swing was up and down, Chu Huaimin turned his head to look at her, with an innocent expression on his face, "How can a person in the harem be able to confuse the court of Qin and the world?"

"Isn't there that saying, Beauty is a disaster." Qin Tangjing's eyes seemed to be filled with bad water.

"That's right, beauty has been so unlucky since ancient times." On the swing, Chu Huaimin still smiled like no other in the world, "Then how should the king deal with it? Will he hand over his concubines to the Six Kingdoms?"

"No, only weak kings trade women for peace." Qin Tangjing also smiled and looked at the country.

In Yingfengli, both of them are showing their faces, but they are not in the same position in different positions, and the situation is very similar, like a swing that swings up and down, sending people to the highest point and then sliding to the lowest point.

Unfortunately, the waiter broke the scene of "loving love" with the Queen Mother urgently summoning King Qin.

Before leaving, the person behind asked softly: "May the King come to Hanqing Palace tonight?"

"Come on, just wait." Qin Tangjing straightened his clothes without turning his head back, "The lonely king is used to having you by his side, so he can sleep peacefully."

People came and went in a hurry, the swing was still shaking, and the waiter didn't leave.

Chu Huaimin watched the man disappear from the back garden, and then raised his eyes to look at him.

The waiter bowed and approached, cupping it with both hands, "Chu Concubine, the Empress Dowager ordered the servants to hand it over to you. The Empress Dowager said that the things given away cannot be returned, and now they will be returned to the original owner."

The carving of that pendant is a phoenix, which is very similar to the phoenix jade pendant.

Chu Huaimin held it in the palm of his hand, "Thank the queen mother on behalf of my palace."

"Yes, the officer will answer right now."

The waiter retreated, Chu Huaimin held the pendant and looked at it for a long time, and finally said: "Notify Director Wu, get ready."

Director Wu has betrayed the enemy camp since accepting bribes from Chen Hao.

But the Chu people were like a bottomless pit, he borrowed that bit of power to help again and again, but the Chu people made more progress every time. At this time, his face turned green and he had to go to the road of Hanqing Palace.

Seeing Chen Hao at the agreed destination, Director Wu's face turned greener, and he stomped his feet to urge Chen Hao: "You don't want to die, this old slave still wants to save his life to enjoy the blessings, time waits for no one, hurry up!"

"Wait a little longer." He also wanted to hurry up.

"What about people?"

"Still in the palace."

"Isn't this old slave saying that you are wrong to leave concubine Chu? What's the use of going back to Chu State? You are doing it to death." Director Wu squatted down and sighed, thinking of being wronged, and tears fell as he said, "Betray the king! That's a felony, how could this old slave be fooled by you, this old slave will be able to leave the palace in half a year, you are harming this old slave..."

Chen Hao didn't even look at him, his eyes looked straight at Hanqing Palace.

Usually Qin Tangjing had already fallen asleep at this time, but tonight, after drinking the chicken soup that had been taken with medicine, he went to bed earlier than usual.

The fact is also the same -

Half of the papers were approved and the people were really tired, so Qin Tangjing undressed and went to sleep early, and lay beside Chu Huaimin like these days, but only occupied half of the bed and never crossed the line.

In the middle of the night, the medicine took effect, and I slept so tightly that I didn't even notice that the person next to my pillow got up and got out of bed.

Chu Huaimin stood by the bed after fully dressed, staring at that face for a long time without words.We have shared the same bed for several days and nights, and at this moment it is even difficult to say goodbye.

In the end, he didn't say a word, but thoughtfully pulled up the brocade quilt to cover Qin Tang's scene tightly.

She turned and left, her steps firm and steady.
