"Your Majesty, how is the matter resolved?"

Feng Qing Cheng's extremely ice-cold eyes seemed to stare unintentionally at a bottle of Gardenia jasminoides flowers not far away that was filled with water that was nourishing a bunch of crimson red flames. A trace of gentleness flashed past her eyes.

"For the time being, I don't want to see her. You should place some heavy soldiers around the perimeter of the courtyard. Remember, place them all in the shadows and don't appear in the open. She is an extremely shrewd and cunning woman."

After a long while, Feng Qing Cheng lazily leaned on the dragon bed with half of his arms supporting, half of his eyes closed, while the other half he continued to stare at the Gardenia jasminoides in the bottle with a faint warmth in his voice.

The Chief Eunuch had long gotten used to serving this new Emperor with an unpredictable holy might. With his strange personality, he almost misunderstood the emperor's sacred will several times. If not for him crawling around in this deep palace for dozens of years and deeply comprehending words and words, he would have already been sent to see the late emperor.

Even so, the Chief Eunuch in this palace still feared this man who was as deep as an ancient well. It was as if if if he was not careful, he would be decapitated in the next moment.

Chief Eunuch stood at the side, thinking about the Emperor. Was he going to imprison this new Imperial Concubine and abolish it after she gave birth to the First Prince, or was he not willing to let her go and use this method to temporarily imprison her. After the birth of the child, would they reunite?

Feng Qing Cheng's words had two meanings, it was difficult for him to ask the Chief Eunuch at the side for his own good. Since he did not dare to ask the Emperor for his intentions, and did not dare to do as he pleased, he could tell from the Emperor's orders that he had to place the guards in the shadows.

"As you wish," Chief Eunuch received the order and left with a headache.

Feng Qing Cheng stood up and paced in front of the white porcelain peony bottle that held the Gardenia jasminoides, then casually took out a Gardenia jasminoides that was blooming at the right time. The Gardenia Flower was originally covered with small thorns, and when the attendants presented it in the morning, they had already carefully plucked all the thorns between the flowers.

"The Gardenia jasminoides that will be sent over tomorrow, do not take the stinger." Feng Qing Cheng's dignified voice sounded out from the room.

"Yes, Your Eminence." The attendants outside the room received the edict neither humbly nor subserviently.

"Even if it's full of thorns, I can still play with it in the palm of my hand."

The corner of Feng Qing Cheng's mouth held a chill and his eyes emitted an iciness that could not even be compared to Dong Ri's cold days.

The beautiful and alluring Gardenia jasminoides faced the warmest day in winter, and was crushed little by little in Feng Qing Cheng's fingertips. The juice of the flower petal carried the wetness of early morning dew, gradually wetting Feng Qing Cheng's rough palm.

Feng Qing Cheng threw the broken flower leaf out of the window, his hand was wet and uncomfortable, "Come, clean hands", his cold voice seemed so sudden in the quiet room.

Moments later, a group of richly dressed maids filed in.

Xi Jiu Er was a little tired in the past few days and spent several days in bed.

"Imperial Concubine, the sandalwood in the garden is open today, and it is a rare sunny day. Seeing that the sun is about to rise, should Imperial Concubine come out and take a bath?"

A young girl in bright, jade carved clothes ran all the way in with light steps and a clear and melodious voice.

Xi Jiu Er slowly opened her eyes, seeing the person, she slowly spat out a word.

The young lady was a maid that Feng Qing Cheng had specially sent over a few days ago. He knew very well that Xi Jiu Er did not like to be crowded, and did not like being surrounded by a group of people.

Xi Jiu Er didn't like people who were especially cheerful and chattered non-stop. Even her personal maid, Liu Shui, who occasionally had big nerves had also been used to it for quite a few days.

The young maid's name was Wan Yun, and he was the daughter of a lowly tailor. In order to treat the mother in his family, he entered the palace and sent three taels of silver home.

After Xi Jiu Er found out about her background, a moment of pity appeared in her eyes. She joked that Xi Jiu Er was a kind-hearted person and that she would definitely have a filial son in the future.

Facing such a happy and contented young girl, the softest part of Xi Jiu Er's heart was unwittingly touched. Hence, from almost the very beginning, this charming and charming maid was completely accepted by Xi Jiu Er from the depths of her heart.

Wan Yun skipped over to the side of Xi Jiu Er's bed and landed in front of the bed. With a smile on her face, she asked: "Imperial Concubine, do you want to go out with Yun'er to bask in the sunlight?"

Xi Jiu Er lazily stretched her waist and slowly got up while supporting her somewhat heavy body. Seeing that, Wan Yun immediately got up and helped her put on the cloth over her, then knelt down and wrapped her sheepskin and thick fluffy boots up.

Xi Jiu Er supported her maid with one hand as she slowly walked out of the hall. The winter sunlight was exceptionally rare, so when she rested her hand on her brow and took a deep breath, she could feel a cool breeze blowing on her face.

"Empress, don't inhale the cold winter wind. It will cool your heart and lungs." Wan Yun wrapped the fox fur on Xi Jiu Er's body tighter and turned around, allowing the two eunuchs behind him to bring out the pear-shaped wooden bed that was lying on the side of the hall.

"Put it under that pine tree, and then carry a bed with a Cloud Satin Hibiscus quilt to spread on the bed. The bed will be thicker, so the Empress won't stay cold any longer."

Wan Yun chattered continuously as she instructed the eunuch to carry the pear wood bed under the pine tree for Xi Jiu Er to rest.

Once everything was ready, Wan Yun carefully helped Xi Jiu Er onto the bed, and then turned around and carried out a mink fur overcoat to wrap Xi Jiu Er into a thick, large dumpling.

Xi Jiu Er watched her do all this. After she was done, he sent her to the library to find a few ancient books to have some fun.

The winter's sunlight was always especially rare. It shined with a golden radiance in a warm manner. Xi Jiu Er leaned against the couch and held onto a remnant volume of her battle tactics as she seriously focused her gaze on the words in her hands.

"Let me in, I have the gold medal from His Majesty, the boldness of a servant." A domineering female voice sounded from outside the hall.

The person who disturbed Xi Jiu Er's interest in reading was a girl who looked to be no more than fifteen or sixteen. Xi Jiu Er put down the book in her hands, turned her head and looked towards the unfamiliar woman who was slowly walking over.

The young girl's blushing face had an unexplainable flush to it. Xi Jiu Er looked at her calmly, then took back the book in her hands. There was no trace of this' uninvited guest 'who had suddenly barged in.

Her voice was as cheerful and tender as a canary, "Elder sister, little sister is the youngest daughter of the Western Region's Duke of Fish, her name is Yu Xi. When little sister enters the palace, she will definitely be with big sister, lowering her head and meeting your eyes.
