"It's not your fault," Xue ronghua said, bending his lips. "It's Meng Qianchong who has harmed so many imperial concubines for his ambition and Su Rushuang. It's only you who can rise to become empress dowager. It's a pity that the good imperial concubine has gone. She doesn't support it well."
Luo Ninghai's eyes flashed a little strange, clenched her hands and said, "take care. If you have time in the future, you'll come back to the state of Qi to see jou Chia, me and the new emperor. At that time, maybe the state of Qi will overturn the case for you and the mujiajun."
Xue ronghua's eyes were bright and his lips were filled with a smile of thousands of meanings. "Take care. I believe you are a backstage worker who will support the emperor to rebuild the country of the whole Qi."
Luo Ninghai looked deeply into her eyes, "take care."
Snow fell from the palace of the state of Qin. The yard full of red plum blossoms was filled with the fragrance of plum blossoms. Zhao Qingyao folded a red plum and put it on the tip of her nose. Then he threw it on the snow, and the white snow set off the plum blossom more and more blood red.
The butterfly shadow came to her ear. She said softly, "madam, there is news from the state of Qi. It says that the new emperor has ascended the throne."
Zhao Qingyao frowned, "whose Prince is it?"
Butterfly shadow bit her lips and said, "it's the prince of concubine Luo. She's the only one in the palace who has a prince, and none of the other concubines."
"How could there be any other concubines? Another one was taken away by the imperial concubine. It's just that her son has no competitors. It's very thoughtful, but my family just can't think of it. The twin sons around imperial concubine Fu are really eye-catching."
"Please don't worry, madam. You still have one in your stomach, maybe it's a daughter," butterfly shadow said in a deep voice. "No matter how powerful the imperial concubine Fu is, she is just a woman in the state of Qi. How can she compare with the empress, but the people of the state of Qin, the emperor naturally made the prince of the woman of the state of Qin as the prince."
Zhao Qingyao narrowed her eyes slightly. "It's strange that her sister didn't have the ability to die in the delivery room with the prince. She didn't leave any hope to the palace. Even if she left a prince for the palace, she doesn't have to look at the face of imperial concubine Fu."
"Don't worry, madam. Be careful of the Dragon fetus in your stomach."
Zhao Qingyao tilted her head and said suspiciously, "no, the emperor of Qi is younger than that of Daqin. Why did he die of illness? I'm afraid the new Emperor didn't have it at the age of seven."
"The new emperor is eight years old," butterfly shadow sighed slightly. "The former Emperor of the state of Qi, like the former Emperor, left inexplicably. When he was young, he didn't know what happened in the palace of the state of Qi."
Zhao Qingyao frowned, thought for a moment and said, "it's just the meeting. After seizing the line, he's impatient. His father and emperor have been sitting on the throne. It's better to start first. Is such a thing strange in the palace? We'll see it when we arrive."
Butterfly shadow surprised to cover his mouth, "is there really a prince who will kill his father and emperor and sit on the throne regardless of ethics and morality? It will be split by heaven and thunder."
"It's the most ruthless imperial family. Even if it's a thunderstorm, there are few princes in the palace who can stand the emperor's desire," Zhao Qingyao said with a sneer. "Brothers turn against each other and mother and son become enemies. There are many disputes between father and son. What's wrong?"
"After the new emperor of the state of Qi ascended the throne, the Duan king will come back," butterfly shadow said in a deep voice. "The Duan King moved out of the palace because of illness many years ago. After recovering, he brought down the crown prince and the king of Jin and almost sat in the position of Chu Jun. I'm afraid it will be another bloody storm this time."
Zhao Qingyao's face sank and a trace of cruelty flashed across her eyes. "The two princes of imperial concubine Fu are not three years old. How can they be enemies with him? This palace seems to be his own state of Qin. A princess in this palace is even more useless. The emperor is too old to do what he wants. The position of Prince reserve will be his right away."
Butterfly shadow said in panic, "what should we do? The Dragon fetus in my mother's belly hasn't been born yet. Don't let Duanwang take advantage of it."
Zhao Qingyao glared at her. "Don't talk nonsense. The relationship between the emperor and Duan Wang is not as good as you think. If you really want him to be the crown prince, I'm afraid he will be the crown prince before he goes to the state of Qi. It's still necessary to wait until now. Let's watch carefully and see how to go in the future."
Butterfly shadow nodded quickly, "we worked so hard that we almost brought down the imperial concubine. We can't retreat when we meet a Duanwang."
"The palace will never shrink back. Let Duan Wang put his horse here. The palace was almost cheated by the princess to the state of Qi. It's not easy to stick to the emperor. It's just a prince," Zhao Qingyao subconsciously touched her belly, as if she was conveying something to the prince in her belly, "As the child of the mother imperial concubine, you must cheer up for the mother imperial concubine. Your father is old and can still support it. You must catch up with the emperor and win the favor of the emperor for the palace."
Butterfly shadow nodded and said, "why don't we invite Duan Wang to have dinner here? It's a kind gesture in advance. The emperor has been to the imperial concubine more recently."
"When Duan Wang comes back in a few days, the palace can make preparations in advance so that he won't underestimate the palace."
Butterfly shadow pulled his finger and said, "it will take about seven days. On the first day, go to greet the emperor. On the third day, we can invite Duanwang and the prospective princess to have dinner together."
Zhao Qingyao frowned, "what about the next day? Does the emperor want to stay with the king for two days?"
Butterfly shadow said carefully, "according to the rules, we have to have dinner with the imperial concubine the next day. We can only push it until the third day."
Zhao Qingyao glared at her angrily, but she had to bite her teeth and accept, "whatever the day he comes, as long as he can come."
Chu Zongge stood on the high slope, overlooking the magnificent scenery of Kyoto, a world wrapped in silver, as if the whole Kyoto had been buried in the snow, and the shadow of Banque palace could not be found. There were large white birds hovering overhead and disappearing in the vast snow.
Chu Zongge gave out a group of heat and said with a soft smile, "are you cold? Do you think it's colder in Qi or colder in Qin?"
Xue ronghua's lips flashed a sweet smile, "as long as there is you, it's not cold."
"After going to the state of Qi, I can speak like this," Chu Zongge couldn't help reaching out and touching her side face. "It seems that I have to go to the state of Qi several times, otherwise I won't hear so many sweet words."
"If you like, I can tell you every day. Is this something very rare?" Xue ronghua smiled, like a spring breeze warming his chest. "When are you going to marry me?"
Chu Zongge tilted his head and said thoughtfully, "first take seven days to greet the emperor and several concubines in the harem, and then we will choose a good day and ask the emperor when to get married."
"You're right. It's better for the emperor to decide the royal wedding," said Xue ronghua. "But you must hurry up. If you procrastinate again and again, I won't marry you."
"We've experienced so many things. We've long been an old husband and wife. You still think you don't intend to marry me in the future," Chu Zongge pinched her face with anger and smile. "I wish we could get married soon. How can we drag on? You're the one who has been dragging on."
Xue ronghua didn't want to be too close to her in front of others. His cheeks had already become red. He begged for mercy and said, "it's all my fault. It used to be for revenge, but it won't happen again today. Just rest assured. Even without ten miles of red makeup, I'll marry you."
Chu Zongge's eyes are filled with tenderness, "to be my prospective princess is more than ten miles of red makeup. I can give you whatever you want, although the lion opens his mouth."
Xue ronghua looked deeply at his slowly changing face, and his voice was mixed with a trace of sadness. "I don't want anything. I just want to be with you all my life. No matter what happens in the future, we are all together. What kind of disaster can't separate us. Can you promise me?"
Chu Zongge raised his lips and smiled. Regardless of other people's eyes, he immediately hugged her in his warm arms, "I promise you, I will never leave you."
Xue ronghua bit his lips and said, "if the emperor doesn't let you become a prince, will you still be with me?"
Chu Zongge was stiff and opened his eyes in disbelief, "why did you ask me such a question? Why didn't the emperor let me become a prince, and why did I separate from you because I couldn't become a prince? What's the connection between these two things and the friendship between me and you?"
Xue ronghua's eyes darkened, lifted up his lips and said, "I'm just asking you. The way back to the state of Qin is still very dangerous. You and I must be careful."
Chu Zongge rubbed her hair, smiled at her and said, "don't think too much. Where can the situation of Qin compare with that of Qi? There are only two people in the harem, imperial concubine Fu and imperial concubine Zhao. The child of imperial concubine Fu is only three years old. How can he win the line with me?"
"Isn't there Zhao Qingyao, the princess of Poyang," Xue ronghua bit his lip, "is Zhao Qingyao Princess Zhao?"
"There was a princess Zhao, her sister. Unfortunately, the original Princess Zhao died with the prince because of childbirth. Now Princess Zhao is her sister Zhao Qingyao," Chu Zongge smiled. "There is only one princess under the new princess Zhao's knee. Don't worry. If the emperor doesn't make me a prince, there will be no successors."
Xue ronghua sighed slightly, "it's just that you and the emperor have unfinished business with Mrs. Heyi. I'm afraid the emperor's impression of you is still the same as before."
"No matter what the emperor does to me, I'm also his own son. He doesn't like me anymore. He should also consider the state of Qin," Chu Zongge patted her on the shoulder. "Don't be too nervous. When we go back to Kyoto, go to the palace and have a rest. I see that your eyebrows and eyes are tired. It's not too late to have a rest before greeting the emperor and his concubines."
Xue ronghua was really tired. She smiled softly and said, "just listen to you. Let's go to the palace and have a rest. Send someone to tell the emperor first. Will he understand?"
"He still loves you, the princess to be. Just have a good rest," Chu Zongge said softly, "I will make you my queen."
