"???" Liao Qingqing was slightly stunned, staring straight at Emperor Jingli, trying to figure out what he meant, and then walked towards him.
Emperor Jingli turned aside.
Liao Qingqing deliberately sat next to him.
Emperor Jingli did not give Liao Qingqing a seat.
Liao Qingqing squeezed in and sat down.
Emperor Jingli looked very disgusted, but he still quietly made some space for Liao Qingqing, and asked in a complaining tone: "Why are you squeezing me?"
"I just want to squeeze the emperor." Liao Qingqing smiled.
Emperor Jingli: "..." He continued to turn his face aside and ignored everyone.
Liao Qingqing smiled and hugged Emperor Jingli's arm, and gently called: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty."
Emperor Jingli ignored him.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty." Liao Qingqing called again.
Still ignored him.
"Husband." Liao Qingqing suddenly said.
Emperor Jingli was slightly startled, and turned to look at Liao Qingqing.
Liao Qingqing immediately gave a sunflower-like smile.
"Don't be so playful with me." Emperor Jingli said.
Liao Qingqing immediately became serious.
Emperor Jingli said again: "You are just playing dumb."
"The highest state of life is to be dumb." Liao Qingqing said.
"Should I praise you highly?"
"That's not the case."
Emperor Jingli was about to turn his body to the side again. Liao Qingqing hugged Emperor Jingli's arm tightly. Emperor Jingli turned his head and pretended to be cold and asked, "What?"
"Your Majesty, what are you angry about again?"
"Don't you know what I'm angry about?"
"I don't know." "Don't
pretend." "I'm not pretending ." "Humph." "I care about you." "Only a ghost would believe it." "People would believe it too." "Be less poor." "Not poor." "You just take advantage of the fact that I cherish you." "I cherish the emperor too." Emperor Jingli turned his head to look at Liao Qingqing and asked, "Then why do you still raise cats, and the kind that is annoying." "Raising cats is troublesome, and the annoying ones are especially troublesome." "Then what?" "Then I won't miss the emperor anymore." "Don't you miss me anymore?" Emperor Jingli's face sank. "No." Liao Qingqing explained, "What I meant is that if the emperor goes to find other concubines, I will play with cats, so that I won't miss the emperor." "You still don't miss me." Emperor Jingli's tone became colder. "???" Why is this man so stubborn? Liao Qingqing was helpless and found it funny. She continued to explain, "What I meant was that if the emperor played with other concubines, I would definitely feel uncomfortable. If I play with cats, I wouldn't feel so uncomfortable." After Liao Qingqing finished speaking, she looked at Emperor Jingli. Emperor Jingli asked, "Why should I look for other concubines?" "Other concubines are also your wives." "Nonsense, only you are." Liao Qingqing stopped talking and stared at Emperor Jingli quietly. Emperor Jingli said, "I will not look for other concubines, nor will I select any more beauties." "Your Majesty, people will change." "You don't believe me." "No." Liao Qingqing put her face against Emperor Jingli's shoulder and said softly, "Your Majesty, I know that you are good to me now, and I am happy, but life is long, and I will grow old and ugly. One day, Your Majesty will get tired of me, and I will have to find something to entertain myself." This was the first time that Liao Qingqing felt so sad, expressing her concern and uneasiness sadly. The coldness of Emperor Jingli disappeared, and he became warm and affectionate. He said, "You have grown old and ugly, and I have grown old and ugly too." "I am definitely uglier than Your Majesty." "Of course." "???" "But I won't abandon you." "???" "I said I wouldn't look for someone else, but you didn't believe me. I can show you." "How?" "There's a long way to go." "Yes." "Why don't you go to sleep first? " "Sleep?" Emperor Jingli turned around and picked up Liao Qingqing. Liao Qingqing was startled and quickly hugged Emperor Jingli's neck: "Your Majesty, what are you going to do?" Emperor Jingli smiled ambiguously: "What do you think?" "No, it's broad daylight." "It's clear in broad daylight." Emperor Jingli carried Liao Qingqing and walked towards the bed. Liao Qingqing struggled and shouted: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, don't be like this." "If you don't listen, we will solve it here." "???" "Okay, you listen, that means you agree, go to bed!" "???" Regret! Very regretful! Liao Qingqing regretted calling "husband" very much, and regretted showing uneasiness, care and sadness very much. The beast Emperor Jingli solved all problems in bed, and tortured Liao Qingqing in various ways, making Liao Qingqing call him husband and make Liao Qingqing believe in his love. Until Liao Qingqing slept until dark. When she woke up, she was completely confused.
I don't know what day it is.
It took a while before He Xiang was called in.
After He Xiang came in, she told Liao Qingqing about how Concubine De dealt with the concubines in the harem. Liao Qingqing asked in surprise: "So many were dealt with so quickly?"
He Xiang said: "The maids and eunuchs all confessed."
"How was it dealt with?"
"Concubine Xian was confined for half a year, Li Fangyi was demoted..." He Xiang said a long list.
"Concubine Liang."
"Concubine Liang is not a concubine now."
"Oh, yes, it's Concubine Liang."
"Well, Concubine Liang was confined for half a year, fined for half a year, and expelled from Linhua Palace."
"Where did she move to?" "
Moved to Shuiyun Court." He Xiang said: "This time the matter is very big, the harem is in a commotion, and it must have spread to the court."
Liao Qingqing nodded.
But she didn't expect that the news would spread so quickly. In just two or three days, it not only spread to the court, but also spread outside the palace.
Her mother, Ji, wrote a letter to inquire about Liao Qingqing's situation.
Liao Qingqing quickly wrote back to report that she was safe.
However, two days later, Ji's letter was delivered again. Seeing that Ji was relieved, Liao Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief. Emperor Jingli happened to come back from Yu's study, and Liao Qingqing asked, "Your Majesty, did you spread the news that Concubine Liang fell into the water?"
Emperor Jingli nodded, "Yes."
"Why did it spread everywhere?" "
It's called tactics."
"What tactics?"
"Public opinion tactics." Emperor Jingli put down the tea bowl, stretched out his hand to hug Liao Qingqing and sit her on his lap, played with Liao Qingqing's slender fingers, and said slowly, "Some old antiques in the court remember the kindness of Marquis Huaishan, and write to me every day to ask me to make Concubine Liang the queen. As soon as the matter of establishing a queen is mentioned, they immediately quarrel. "
The queen is the mother of a country, and the queen's son is the legitimate son, the future emperor. It concerns the country and the fate of every court official, so naturally they are cautious and cautious.
Emperor Jingli continued, "What virtue and ability does Concubine Liang have to become the empress? Nonsense, it's too hard to change the old antique's ideas. I'll let them see Concubine Liang's virtues, let them know Qingqing's goodness, and use public opinion to force them to agree to my choice of empress."
"..."
"Alas, being an emperor is not easy."
Liao Qingqing nodded. She didn't have much knowledge of history. She learned about the profession of emperor from TV dramas and thought it was not difficult to be an emperor. Later, she traveled to Wei and met Emperor Jingli... Emperor Jingli seemed to handle court affairs very easily, without reason or rules.
It was like playing.
In fact, Emperor Jingli understood the art of balance the best. Behind every policy and joke, there were complicated and complicated lines.
These were all the hard work that Emperor Jingli did in private.
In the 365 days of the year, Emperor Jingli spent 364 days getting up early and working hard to handle state affairs, and only had one day off during the Chinese New Year.
Naturally, he was more concerned about the matter of establishing a queen.
Liao Qingqing didn't understand why Emperor Jingli wanted to establish her as the queen at first, but later she heard the queen mother say that among all the concubines in the harem, only the empress could sit with the emperor during his lifetime and be buried with him after his death. She was even more moved, and at this moment she took the initiative to stand up and massage Emperor Jingli's back and shoulders.
Emperor Jingli held Liao Qingqing's hand.
Liao Qingqing asked, "What's wrong?"
"Your skills are too poor."
"???"
"Not as good as Fusheng."
"I won't let you massage me anymore in the future."
"You can kiss me."
Emperor Jingli leaned his face towards Liao Qingqing.
Liao Qingqing smiled and kissed Emperor Jingli's lips. Emperor Jingli then raised his lips and put his hands around Liao Qingqing's slender waist. Neither of them deepened the kiss. They just kissed each other with their lips slightly curled, feeling each other's warmth and the sun surrounding them.
After a while, Emperor Jingli let go of Liao Qingqing. He stared at her with his deep eyes and said, "Qingqing, have a baby."
"Have a baby?"
"Yes."
In her previous life, Liao Qingqing grew up on her own. She longed for a family in her heart and had never rejected having a baby. At this time, after Emperor Jingli mentioned this, she said with some yearning and some embarrassment, "Having a baby is not just my business."
"I'll help you."
"???"
"Come on, I'll help you now."
"..."
Excuses, all excuses!
She and Emperor Jingli did not wait for a child, but they did wait for good news about potatoes. One thousand acres of potatoes planted in Zhuzhou all sprouted potato seedlings.
This was a great joy for the court.
As the potato seedlings sprouted, the next step was irrigation, fertilization, picking flowers and buds, etc. Liao Qingqing had already written a book and handed it to the director of the Agriculture Department.
In order to let the people of the one thousand acres of land in Zhuzhou understand, Liao Qingqing paid for it herself, drew the appearance of the potatoes she had planted at different stages, printed a thousand copies of the book, handed it to the director of the Agriculture Department, and distributed it to the people.
Fearing that there were any mistakes in the middle, Liao Qingqing once got the permission of Emperor Jingli, disguised herself as a man, and went to the field to investigate. After confirming that everything was going well for the potato growth, she was relieved and spent the winter in Lisheng Pavilion with peace of mind.
Yes, winter has come again in the blink of an eye.
At this time, the issue of establishing a queen is still undecided.
No, to be more precise, the tug-of-war between Emperor Jingli and the court officials is still going on.
However, after the incident of Concubine Liang falling into the water, the support of Concubine Liang and other concubines has weakened a little. In addition, with the recent good growth in potato prices, Liao Qingqing's popularity has gradually increased, and some court officials have silently stood on the side of Emperor Jingli.
Emperor Jingli accepted the surrender of some court officials with a smile, and continued the relevant ceremonies of establishing a queen, waiting for the right time to announce the edict.
He was not in a hurry at all. He
handled state affairs as usual every day, and arranged a blind date for Xie Jian when he had time. Hearing that the Xie family seemed to like a family and discussed the matter of betrothal gifts, Emperor Jingli laughed happily.
Deyi told Liao Qingqing about this.
Liao Qingqing said nonchalantly: "What does his marriage have to do with me?"
This sentence made Emperor Jingli very happy, and he hugged Liao Qingqing and kissed her, making a "bo bo" sound. The palace maids and eunuchs hung their heads in shame. The empress dowager and Nanny Chang who came to visit saw this scene, and they were both stunned. The empress dowager
: "..."
Nanny Chang: "..."
Liao Qingqing only noticed the empress dowager and Nanny Chang when she turned her head.
She was immediately embarrassed.
Emperor Jingli was calm and walked to the empress dowager to pay her respects. The empress dowager
coughed lightly to ease the embarrassment, and said: "I was passing by, and I wanted to see Xi Zhaorong, and I would like to give Xi Zhaorong a string of pomegranate beads."
Nanny Chang took out a small box and handed it to Liao Qingqing.
Liao Qingqing took it quickly and bowed to the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother glanced at Emperor Jingli, said she had something else to do, and turned away.
Liao Qingqing and Emperor Jingli saw the Queen Mother off together.
When the Queen Mother was far away, Emperor Jingli said, "Open it and have a look."
Liao Qingqing opened the beautifully carved wooden box and saw a bracelet that looked like full pomegranates. It was extremely crystal clear and beautiful. She immediately said, "Wow, it's so beautiful."
"It has a meaning." Emperor Jingli said.
Liao Qingqing asked, "What does it mean?"
"Many children."
Emperor Jingli had talked about having children more than once, but this time he had an inexplicable feeling in his heart. It seemed that her period had not come this month?
The author has something to say: -
Baozi: I'm here!
Emperor Jingli: Who are you?
Baozi: Mother, I want to be surnamed Xie.
Emperor Jingli: Where is my 40-meter-long sword?
