The Flower Guarding Bell Chapter 16: Her thoughts
With a few words, he understood her intentions.
"So, what can you give me?"
She shrank slightly and her tone became more determined.
"As long as I have it, as long as I can give it, you can take it."
A chuckle came from above, and finally, her chin was lifted by him.
His cold fingers ran down the marks of the scar on her face, and she saw her reflection in his starry eyes.
Xiao Qingxue like that is unfamiliar to herself.
"I can promise you the request just now, before I get tired of you. But—" He paused slightly, with a hint of danger in his tone, "If you want a higher seat, you have to climb it yourself."
She leaned over and bowed, "My concubine, thank the emperor for his grace."
Li Changqing is gone.
Xiao Qingxue slowly got up and returned to the bed with some weakness.
Using the quilt to close myself slightly, I slowly buried my head in the quilt, and smelled the medicinal fragrance inside. Only in this way did my heart feel a little more at ease.
Because of her love for him, she once became very low, low to the dust, and was trampled on.
Now, it's time to wake up.
The karmic obstacles in the sea of hardships, no one can cross her, then let her cross her own...
Because of Li Changqing's special instructions, Xiao Qingxue was not disturbed while she was recovering.
In the blink of an eye, the flowers reach full bloom, and the summer season is over.
When the group returned from the palace to the Kyoto Imperial Palace, it was already the cool autumn season when the maple trees were gradually dyed.
Over and over again, Xiao Qingxue jumped from a lowly palace maid to Jieyu.
During all kinds of things, I have to sigh, fate makes people.
In the eyes of the world, this lady-in-law who has become obsessed seems to have a very sacred heart. The emperor not only gave her the Qinyang Palace of the former Qing princess, but also often asked her to accompany her in front of the imperial court.
There are rumors that this Chinese empress was deeply loved by the Han courtiers and the common people.
She is sympathetic to her servants, treats Hu people and Han people equally, and is more frugal in the palace. This popularity spreads from the harem to the whole country, changing the extravagance and extravagance of the previous dynasty, and saving a lot of money for the court's expenses.
While the world loves this lady more and more, her curiosity and inquiry continue to rise.
At this time, in the deep palace, on a high hall platform, a woman was looking at her.
Her pair of autumn waters are quietly accommodating distant scenery, and as far as her eyes can reach, is the entire country of Dajing.
When Lingsu arrived, what he saw was a thin back of a curtained west wind leaning against the railing alone.
She approached softly and carefully placed the cloak in her hand on the woman's shoulder.
"Niang Niang, the wind is blowing, be careful to catch a cold."
She ignored her words and just sighed to herself, "The current Dajing is much bigger than the previous Chen Guo, isn't she?"
"My Lady?"
Lingsu's eyes flashed with doubts, before she could continue to explore the deep meaning of the woman's words, Xiao Qingxue had already closed her cloak slightly.
"Has everything been delivered to the queen?"
Xiao Qingxue lightly pinched the tea lid and rubbed the edge of the tea, her tone indifferent.
Lingsu nodded, "I've sent it all over. But—" she had a puzzled look in her eyes, "Miss, the slaves don't understand, the queen obviously hates us to the core, she always rewards the things you send over. Human, why are we still doing this thankless thing?"
She stared at the floating leaves in the cup, as if all her attention was focused there.
"Now is not the time to be her enemy."
Na Yunzhe has an extremely important position in Li Changqing's heart. She never thought to shake this position and make herself as strong as possible. This is her purpose.
If possible, she would be willing to avoid the river water with Na Yunzhe.
Unfortunately...
A floating leaf gradually sank to the bottom of the cup, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she put down the teacup.
"Lingsu, dress me up."
In front of the bronze mirror, the woman's head looks like a waterfall.
Ling Su stood behind her and brushed lightly with a wooden comb, inadvertently glanced at the woman's face.
"Niang Niang, Mr. Qi Li's medicine is really effective. These days, the scars on your face have faded a lot."
"Really?"
Xiao Qingxue looked at the woman in the mirror and stretched out her hand to stroke the scar. It was indeed a lot lighter. If you don't look carefully, you can't see this face at all. There has been such a terrifying moment.
However, she still remembers what Qi Lixi said, and if she wants to completely remove the scar, she is afraid that it will not be possible. The way he looks now, it should be the ultimate he has done for her.
Actually, Xiao Qingxue thinks that this is good, this scar will always serve as a warning to her.
