Emperor Jingli's face was calm.
Fusheng had never been able to guess what Emperor Jingli was thinking, and today's situation made him even more confused, and he felt uneasy.
"Serve the meal!" Emperor Jingli suddenly said.
Fusheng quickly replied, "Yes!" Fusheng
hurried to serve the meal.
Emperor Jingli had lunch in Yu's study.
After lunch, he did not go to Lisheng Pavilion, but took a nap in the small room next to it. After
waking up, he continued to work in Yu's study.
Before the palace banquet, he was afraid of having a headache during the banquet, so he held Liao Qingqing's hand all night to sleep. Later, during the banquet, Liao Qingqing sat behind him according to the headache pattern he had figured out.
He would not have a headache for at least the next two days.
He stopped thinking about Liao Qingqing.
In the blink of an eye, it was dark.
There was no news from Lisheng Pavilion yet.
He also had no plan to go to Lisheng Pavilion.
When dinner was about to start, Concubine Liang brought her homemade assorted soups and asked about his well-being.
Even Li Wanyi was not afraid of being scolded and came to bring food.
But there was no movement from Liao Qingqing.
He ate dinner unhappily and did not ask about the affairs of Lisheng Pavilion.
After dinner, he went to Yu Garden to relax and met many concubines who were also relaxing. He expected Liao Qingqing to be among them.
He strode up and looked around twice, but did not see Liao Qingqing.
This Concubine Xi is so lazy! She
didn't even walk around after dinner.
He suddenly felt bored and left the concubines behind. He
returned to Zhengqian Palace, feeling extremely irritable. He adjusted himself for a quarter of an hour before concentrating on the book, reading until he was tired.
He went to bed alone in Zhengqian Palace.
The next morning, he went to court as usual. After the court session, he went directly to Yu's study.
He thought that Liao Qingqing would definitely come today.
But when night fell, there was still no sign of Liao Qingqing.
His face became uglier and uglier.
This woman!
He used great self-control not to think about her.
He focused on reviewing memorials and went to bed on time. He
was in very good condition.
What Liao Qingqing?
No need to worry about it.
After a night's rest, he went to the morning court session the next morning with full energy. He thought to himself, Liao Qingqing is just a woman who is a little special.
Can he not live without her?
At this moment, a headache came.
!!!
Emperor Jingli pressed his forehead and gritted his teeth and shouted: "Fusheng!"
Emperor Jingli was in a bad mood these days, as if he had returned to the past, no, it was even more terrible than before, so Fusheng was also particularly afraid, and tremblingly replied: "The slave is here."
Emperor Jingli squeezed out a voice from his bite: "Go to Lisheng Pavilion."
Fusheng risked his life to remind: "Your Majesty, at this time, Master Xi is in Linhua Palace to pay respects to the noble concubine."
"Who said I want to see her?" Emperor Jingli said unhappily.
"???" Isn't Lisheng Pavilion the residence of Master Xi? Fusheng was confused.
Then Emperor Jingli said: "Go to Linhua Palace!"
"...Yes."
Fusheng didn't dare to think about Jingli's self-contradiction, and quickly arranged the sedan chair.
He went directly to Linhua Palace.
As soon as the words "Your Majesty has arrived", the concubines in Linhua Palace quickly stood up and saluted. The moment Emperor Jingli walked into Linhua Palace with his right hand on his forehead, the pain on his forehead disappeared.
He knew Liao Qingqing was here. He
even sensed where Liao Qingqing was.
But he didn't even look at Liao Qingqing, and walked directly to Concubine Liang.
"My beloved concubine, stand up." He pulled Concubine Liang up.
Concubine Liang said softly, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
"You all should stand up too." Emperor Jingli said coldly to the concubines.
Liao Qingqing also stood up and sat on the stool. She glanced at Emperor Jingli. It had only been two days since they last met, and she felt that Emperor Jingli's face had become even more sour. She had originally planned to go and see Emperor Jingli.
Judging from this face -
it seems that she will have to wait two days before seeing Emperor Jingli. Otherwise,
she will end up like Li Wanyi.
Miserable!
As she thought this, she lowered her eyes and listened to Emperor Jingli and Concubine Liang saying that the Great Wei Dynasty had a good harvest this year and that Mid-Autumn Festival was coming soon, so they had to celebrate it.
In addition, the pomegranates in the pomegranate garden were ripe.
Emperor Jingli asked, "Are the pomegranates ripe?" Concubine
Liang said, "Yes."
"Pomegranates symbolize prosperity and prosperity. My beloved concubines, please come with me to enjoy them and share in the joy." Emperor Jingli said.
It was rare for Emperor Jingli to have such an interest.
Concubine Liang said happily, "This is my concubine's blessing."
"Let's go."
Emperor Jingli stood up and took a step.
Concubine Liang followed first.
As one of the concubines, Liao Qingqing had to follow and entered the pomegranate garden together. She was not interested at first.
When I looked up, I saw a variety of fruit trees planted in a garden of moderate size.
Most of them were pomegranate trees.
The pomegranate tree seemed to have no main trunk. From the root of the tree, many trunks extended in all directions. Each trunk was covered with dense green leaves in an orderly manner. In the middle of the green leaves, there were big and red pomegranates.
Big and red!
Pomegranates!
There must be big pomegranate seeds inside, sour and sweet.
Liao Qingqing was instantly greedy.
She wanted to eat!
But she still had to restrain her desire, and followed Emperor Jingli and others seriously to walk around the trees full of pomegranates.
What a bountiful harvest!
Emperor Jingli was very satisfied.
Suddenly, he saw a huge pomegranate, which was bigger than the others. Emperor Jingli turned around and reached for it, and walked to Liao Qingqing. Liao Qingqing subconsciously stepped back to make way for Emperor Jingli.
Emperor Jingli suddenly turned around and looked at her with dissatisfaction.
"???" What does that mean?
Emperor Jingli ignored Liao Qingqing.
He picked a big pomegranate and left with Concubine Liang.
Liao Qingqing also followed back to Linhua Palace.
He listened to Concubine Liang and Emperor Jingli talking about some things in the harem, and the greeting ceremony was finally over.
Liao Qingqing finally returned to Lisheng Pavilion.
She always skipped breakfast before going to pay respects to Concubine Liang. On weekdays, she would just go through the motions and come back. But today, when Emperor Jingli arrived, she actually walked for half an hour. She was very hungry now. She
quickly ordered He Xiang to prepare breakfast.
As soon as the breakfast was served on the table, she picked up the chopsticks, and Fusheng's voice rang out in the yard:
"The emperor has arrived--"
Emperor Jingli is here!
He Xiang was overjoyed.
Liao Qingqing had to put down her chopsticks and go to greet him: "Your Majesty, your concubine pays homage to you. May the emperor be well."
"Get up."
Emperor Jingli strode into the hall and sat on the main seat.
Liao Qingqing got up and turned to look at Emperor Jingli.
Emperor Jingli's face was still handsome, and he still looked impatient.
Liao Qingqing: “???”
Emperor Jingli: “???”
Neither of them spoke.
Liao Qingqing thought for a moment and decided that she should speak first. The person in front of her was the emperor. She couldn’t afford to offend him. She just opened her mouth but before she could make a sound, she heard Emperor Jingli’s unhappily questioning: “Why did Concubine Xi bump into me just now?”
Liao Qingqing: “??? When did I bump into the emperor?”
“In the pomegranate garden.” Emperor Jingli said indifferently.
“???”
I gave you a galaxy, what are you doing bumping into me!
