Chapter 50: Falling into the Water



"Qingqing, let's do it!" Emperor Jingli said in a serious tone.

"???" Liao Qingqing was confused.

Seeing that Liao Qingqing did not object, Emperor Jingli rushed to Liao Qingqing.

Liao Qingqing then hurriedly shouted: "Your Majesty."

"I'm here." Emperor Jingli said softly.

"This is inappropriate." Liao Qingqing pushed Emperor Jingli.

Emperor Jingli kissed her and asked in a hoarse voice: "What's inappropriate?"

"It's on the couch."

"It's OK on the couch. The Spring Palace Picture is outside."

"???" Too coquettish, Emperor Jingli was really coquettish. During Emperor Jingli's actions, Liao Qingqing opened her mouth and tried to stop him: "Your Majesty, you can't indulge in lust. It will hurt your body."

"My body is very good."

"Your Majesty."

"..."

"Your Majesty."

"..."

Liao Qingqing could still shout at first, but after a while, she began to compromise. Although only one day had passed, she clearly felt that Emperor Jingli had made a lot of progress in his skills.

He must have secretly read books that he shouldn't have read.

He must have practiced in private.

Liao Qingqing slowly sank with Emperor Jingli, and unknowingly went from the couch to the bed.

It didn't stop until late at night.

The next day, when Liao Qingqing got up, Emperor Jingli had returned from court and dismissed the palace maids. He was sitting in front of the bed and carefully examining her body.

She was startled and quickly pulled the quilt to cover herself.

Emperor Jingli smiled and said, "What are you covering? Your body...Is there anything I haven't seen?"

???

What are you talking about?

How did this man become so frivolous?

Ah ah ah!

He can say anything.

Liao Qingqing's face turned red, and she was embarrassed and annoyed.

Emperor Jingli asked again, "Does it hurt?"

Liao Qingqing turned her face to the side in annoyance.

Emperor Jingli smiled and stretched out his hand to straighten Liao Qingqing's face.

Liao Qingqing continued to turn her face away.

Emperor Jingli pulled her again.

Liao Qingqing turned her face away again.

This time, Emperor Jingli simply held Liao Qingqing in his hands and said, "I won't do it again next time."

"What won't you do?" Liao Qingqing asked.

"Next time when you say no, I'll be quick."

"???"

"I mean to finish it faster."

"???"

"That way you won't get swollen down there."

"..."

I don't want to care about this man anymore!

"I won't mess around these few days, so you can take good care of yourself."

"..." Really ignore him!

Liao Qingqing lay down on the bed, pulled the quilt over herself, and didn't want to listen to Emperor Jingli's dirty talk. Who knew that Emperor Jingli hugged her through the quilt, kissed the quilt and said, "I mean what I say, don't be angry, you sleep for a while, just a little while, get up and have dinner, I'm reviewing memorials next to you, call me if you have anything."

Liao Qingqing didn't answer.

Emperor Jingli sat down at the small table on the soft couch and began to review memorials.

Liao Qingqing lay there for a while, then turned her head slightly and looked at Emperor Jingli on the couch. The sunlight poured in from the window and fell on Emperor Jingli, just like the light emanating from Emperor Jingli, making him soft and beautiful.

He was busy there with great concentration.

But she suddenly thought of the four words "the years are quiet and good" and stared at them quietly.

At this moment, Emperor Jingli suddenly turned his head, and when he saw her, his eyes softened, and then he showed a warm smile. Her heart softened like a clear spring, with sweetness.

Because Emperor Jingli's gaze was too hot, she turned her face aside.

"Are you awake?" Emperor Jingli sat down beside the bed.

"Yeah." Liao Qingqing responded softly.

"Are you hungry?" Emperor Jingli's voice was so gentle.

Liao Qingqing was very upset and answered, "A little bit."

"Let He Xiang help you wash and comb your hair, and eat something."

"Yes."

"I'll continue to be busy."

"Yes."

Emperor Jingli kissed Liao Qingqing's fair face, and then went to review the memorials. Liao Qingqing touched her cheek and smiled helplessly.

After a while, He Xiang came over.

After she washed and combed her hair, she had breakfast, and then she started reading. In the next two days, Emperor Jingli really kept his promise and did not torture her again. She slept very well, and her already beautiful face became even more beautiful, and there was a little more charm in her.

This was something that everyone noticed.

Even Emperor Jingli was amazed at how beautiful his beloved concubine was. He wanted to take Liao Qingqing with him and try out all the poses in the Spring Palace Painting. However, he had to put it aside for now because Liao Qingqing was not in good health.

He put his mind on the court.

There was endless debate in the court about the queen. Some people agreed to make Liao Qingqing the queen, some supported Concubine Liang, and some supported Concubine Xian. Emperor Jingli did not give an answer and ordered people to prepare for the ceremony of the queen.

The date was set!

But no one knew who would be the empress.

A group of court officials were speechless about Emperor Jingli's behavior.

On second thought, their Emperor Jingli had never followed the rules, and they could not guess him many times. So they continued to insist on their own opinions and advised him to the death.

This caused a lot of commotion.

The concubines in the harem also heard about it. Many of them knew that they were not favored, and secretly envied Liao Qingqing for catching the emperor's eye despite her lack of talent and power, so they just accepted their fate; many of them secretly envied Liao Qingqing and wished that something bad would happen to her; and many of them were planning to make something happen to Liao Qingqing.

That was the faction of Concubine Liang.

Concubine Xian said, "Concubine Gui, Liao Qingqing is very evil."

"What do you mean?" Concubine Liang asked coldly.

"Every time someone tries to harm her, she gets promoted. This has been the case since last year. The most typical case was when Noble Liao and Noble Jiang wanted her to have a relationship with Xie Xian. As a result, she was hurt and met Xie Xian. Not only was she not ignored by the emperor, but she got promoted."

Concubine Liang nodded upon hearing this: "That's true."

"We can try another way and take it slowly."

"What way?" Concubine Liang was instantly interested.

Concubine Xian immediately leaned over to Concubine Liang's ear and whispered, vaguely mentioning the three words "Liao Qingqing".

After a while, the two began to whisper about Liao Qingqing's coming, and no one knew what she was planning. They had been very quiet these days.

Liao Qingqing didn't pay attention to Concubine Liang and the others.

She was busy at the moment.

The test fields in Zhuxian County have been vacated.

The Agriculture Department has also finished germinating the potatoes.

They are just waiting to be planted in the test fields.

Liao Qingqing and the Director of the Agriculture Department did the final inspection.

Liao Qingqing said: "Director, you now know more than me about growing potatoes. I don't need to say anything more. I just need you to explain it to the people."

"Xi Zhaorong is too humble, but Xi Zhaorong, don't worry, I will personally deliver these potatoes to the test fields in Zhuzhou, and I will also personally explain it to the people there." After all, this is a discovery that changes history!

Liao Qingqing smiled and said, "Well, you continue with your work, I will go back." "I respectfully

send Xi Zhaorong off." The director of the Agriculture Department saluted Liao Qingqing very respectfully, and sent Liao Qingqing off with a look of admiration, and then went back to work. After seeing this, He Xiang smiled and said, "Master, you see that the director of the Agriculture Department looks like he worships you as a god." Liao Qingqing asked back, "Does he think of me as a god?" "Not only that, everyone in the Agriculture Department thinks of you as a god." "Really?" "Well, Master, you don't know, I heard it the other day." "What did you hear?" "I heard that after your potato was discovered, the salaries of all the people in the Agriculture Department doubled, and everyone thanked you privately." "They are thanking you for the money, right?" Liao Qingqing went straight to the point. He Xiang insisted: "Of course I am grateful to the master. The master's merits are definitely not measured by money. I don't know how many people will benefit in the future." Liao Qingqing smiled. He Xiang said proudly: "The master is so amazing!" When the concubines entered the palace, He Xiang was assigned to Lisheng Pavilion to serve Liao Qingqing. Liao Qingqing was just a little Liangyi and had been a Liangyi for a long time. Compared with the palace maids, she really didn't do well. But she didn't think so much, just wanted to serve the master well. Unexpectedly, in just over a year, Liao Qingqing would become the head of the harem. Her monthly salary was much higher than others, and her parents and sister lived better than before. She is not a person who compares. But she is still very happy with good achievements. Especially the master also discovered potatoes, the yield is so high, and the life of the poor will be better in the future. She was proud to be able to serve her master! Liao Qingqing smiled and said, "I think I'm pretty good too." He Xiang also smiled. The master and servant got along very well. After leaving the Farmer's Office, Liao Qingqing sat on the sedan chair and He Xiang walked beside her. The weather was already hot at this time. Liao Qingqing stayed in the Farmer's Office for a long time. After returning to Lisheng Pavilion, she took a bath and changed her clothes. Liao Qingqing was in good spirits. Listening to the birds singing everywhere, Liao Qingqing wanted to go out for a walk, so she said, "He Xiang, let's go out for a walk." "Master, where do you want to go?" He Xiang asked. Liao Qingqing said, "Let's go somewhere cooler." "The rockery, or the lake?" He Xiang thought for a moment and said, "We can also go to the bamboo forest. The bamboo forest is cleaned by someone. It's very cool to walk in it, but there are some mosquitoes." " We don't have to go to the bamboo forest. We can just walk around casually, look at the trees, and listen to the birds." Liao Qingqing hasn't strolled in the harem for a long time. The main reason is that the potato matter has been settled, and Liao Qingqing also wants to relax. If possible, she also wants to go on a picnic trip. "Yes, master, do you want to play with an umbrella?" "Let's play." "Yes." So Liao Qingqing and He Xiang held an umbrella together, put away the umbrella when they reached the shade of the tree, walked around, and looked at the flowers and grass. "Master, look at how beautiful these flowers are." He Xiang said. "Pink flower." Liao Qingqing said. "What about this one?" He Xiang asked again. "This one is called snake bed." "Master, you know a lot. I only know the names of some wild flowers." "I learned all this from the Queen Mother. If you want to know, I'll tell you. Remember it." " Okay." Liao Qingqing took He Xiang to look for different kinds of flowers and grass on the ground. At this time, He Xiang saw a figure flash by quickly. She exclaimed "Huh". Liao Qingqing asked: "What happened?" "I just saw a maid from Concubine Liang's palace running away from here." "Isn't that normal? This is a public area. Concubines in the harem can come here. Maybe Concubine Liang is nearby." Liao Qingqing raised her eyes and looked around. Sure enough, she saw Concubine Liang standing on the water pavilion. When Liao Qingqing saw Concubine Liang, Concubine Liang happened to look over at her. Liao Qingqing was still a Zhaorong at the moment, and was not as noble as Concubine Liang. At this moment, according to etiquette, she should step forward and greet her.

"Let's go." Liao Qingqing said.

"Yes." He Xiang responded.

Liao Qingqing walked slowly towards Concubine Liang and bowed carefully: "I am here to see Concubine Liang."

"Get up." Concubine Liang said .

Liao Qingqing stood up slowly.

Concubine Liang looked Liao Qingqing up and down, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a few days. Xi Zhaorong has become more beautiful and lively."

Liao Qingqing said: "Concubine Liang is kind."

"Look at your figure, it's getting better and better." Concubine Liang grabbed Liao Qingqing's arm and looked very intimate.

If it was last year, Liao Qingqing would never think too much, but this year she and Concubine Liang and Concubine Xian had already had a quarrel, and there was no one else around, so Concubine Liang was still so intimate, which must be a problem.

She suddenly became alert and glanced at He Xiang.

He Xiang also understood the seriousness of this, and immediately tensed her body, staring straight at Concubine Liang and her master, fearing that Concubine Liang would harm her master.

But Concubine Liang still looked calm and composed.

Liao Qingqing took a step back secretly while bowing and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Concubine Liang."

"What I said is the truth, no wonder the emperor was so confused."

"???" Liao Qingqing felt that Concubine Liang was going to exert her strength.

Concubine Liang's face was grim as she said, "Now the emperor only has you in his heart and eyes, and has completely forgotten us."

"Concubine Liang, I—"

"Don't explain!" Concubine Liang interrupted Liao Qingqing and said, "You just think I'm a hindrance to your eyes."

"???" What's the connection? Liao Qingqing opened her mouth to explain, "Concubine Liang, I think you misunderstood—"

"Do you want to get rid of me?"

"Concubine Liang, I didn't—"

"Xi Zhaorong, I misjudged you. I didn't expect you to be so vicious!" Concubine Liang raised her voice slightly, approached Liao Qingqing, and deliberately pulled Liao Qingqing's arm.

Liao Qingqing and He Xiang were shocked.

He Xiang took a step forward and grabbed Liao Qingqing's arm: "Master."

But Concubine Liang did not pull Liao Qingqing at all, but suddenly leaned back and fell into the lake.

There was a "thump" sound.

Liao Qingqing: "???" I didn't use any force.

He Xiang: "???" I didn't push anyone either.

The author has something to say: ——Liao

Qingqing: ???

He Xiang: ???

Emperor Jingli: I understand.

Liao Qingqing: What do you understand?

Reader: He is an expert in palace fighting.
