In the Feishui Pavilion, the eldest grandson Wugou was holding the handkerchief in his hand and sitting at the table anxiously. From time to time he would glance in the direction of the palace door, his beautiful eyes worried about gain and loss.
There was a vague suspicion in her mind that His Majesty might have come to find her, but she was not entirely sure.
I'm afraid that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
'Your Majesty should come here... he should have tasted those snacks... but will he go to the others in Zhongcui Hall...'
At this critical moment, women inevitably think more, and Changsun Wugou is no exception.
"Your Majesty is here!"
A sharp sound suddenly came from outside Feishui Pavilion, which made her heart jump into her throat. She looked at the door in surprise and joy.
Until the little palace maid came over and reminded: "Empress Changsun, it's time for you to pick me up!"
"I……"
Only then did Changsun Wugou come to his senses, and his whole body seemed to be hit by a huge sense of happiness.
She stood up hurriedly, walked through the two outer rooms, and hurried towards the entrance of Feishui Pavilion with several palace maids.
When he opened the door, Changsun Wugou had already adjusted his mentality. With a decent smile on his face, he bowed and said, "I have met your Majesty, and I wish you all the best."
The beautiful women have to call themselves concubines, but they, the concubines who have been granted a rank, are qualified to call themselves concubines.
Li Qian stood in front of Feishui Pavilion, speechless for a moment.
When he opened the door just now, he was also shocked for a moment by Changsun Wugou's beauty.
Under the swaying candlelight, the beauty is as beautiful as jade. She has changed out of the plain white dress and put on a light crimson dress.
She has a pretty face, a graceful figure, red lips and green eyebrows, and black hair like clouds.
After watching for a long time, Li Qian came back to his senses and felt a little embarrassed. He touched his face and said, "Guanyin, please get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Changsun Wugou stood up, made eye contact with Li Qian, and then moved away with a bit of shyness.
Li Qian stepped into Feishui Pavilion, and the maids exited one after another and closed the door of the pavilion.
Now, it is a complete world of two people.
Li Qian walked towards the pavilion with his hands behind his back and a calm expression, as if he was looking at the decorative scenery inside the pavilion.
But in fact, he was a bit at a loss.
In this life, it was the first time for Li Qian to experience such an occasion and he didn't know how to open the topic.
Behind him, eldest grandson Wuguo saw Li Qian's silence and did not dare to talk rashly, so he followed Li Qian step by step.
After all, Li Qian has lived in two lives. He has never experienced it and has seen what is going on.
But she is a real little white rabbit. She was only taught some common sense by the elderly nuns at home before entering the palace.
The red candle flickered, and a man and a woman were in a dark room together. Instead of an atmosphere of ambiguity, there was an inexplicable embarrassment.
"Ahem~"
Li Qian finally couldn't help but wanted to start a conversation and break the awkward atmosphere.
He turned around and looked at Changsun Wugou. At this moment, Changsun Wugou also raised his head and looked at Li Qian.
Li Qian stood with his hands behind his back, clasping his fingers together tightly, but he still smiled softly:
"Guanyin Maid's snacks are pretty good. Are you self-taught at home?"
Changsun Wugu's pretty face was slightly flushed, and he looked at Li Qian affectionately:
"Yes, Your Majesty, I learned this from the cook at home when I was young. If Your Majesty likes it, I will make it for Your Majesty."
After starting the conversation, Li Qian also realized that he was no longer the previous life, he was the emperor!
He walked a few steps forward and sat on the chair next to the table.
"I like it very much. If you want to eat it from now on, you can come to Guanyin Maid. Do you have any other skills?"
Changsun Wugou also sat next to him. Under the swaying candlelight, his beautiful eyes looked at Li Qian shyly and timidly, his face red.
"Your Majesty, in addition to butter cherries and crystal cakes, I also have many pastries..."
In this way, the topic was opened, and the strangeness between the two people who met on the first day gradually disappeared.
The pavilion was a little hot and dark on a summer night. As they chatted, Li Qian yawned.
Changsun Wugou said subconsciously: "Your Majesty, are you tired? Do you want to rest now?"
As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she realized the problem and lowered her head with a red face.
Looking from Li Qian's point of view, the eldest grandson Wuguzhen's head was lowered at this moment, and his face was pink from the roots of his ears to his neck.
Red candlelight contributes to the ambiguous atmosphere.
Li Qian's face turned red and he continued: "Then let's rest first."
The gauze curtains in the pavilion were pulled up one after another, the candles were blown out, and rustling sounds came from the darkness.
A few pieces of thin clothing were thrown off the bed, followed by a cry of pain and a somewhat suppressed sound.
Outside Feishui Pavilion, the two little maids standing waiting saw the lights in the pavilion extinguished. After looking at each other, they turned around and left with gentle steps.
Because the two of them knew that by this time, His Majesty the Emperor and the Beauty Empress would probably have no more orders.
Above the palace, the night sky was dark and the stars were shining like water.
The candles in the concubines' rooms were extinguished one after another, but how many of them had no sleep that night.
There were fifty beautiful ladies entering the palace, but there was only one emperor.
This does not mean that everyone will be equally affected. If the emperor is partial, some concubines may not be able to see the emperor in their lifetime.
…
The next day, in the early morning, the morning light was dim.
The palace became popular early on, and the eunuchs and maids walked through it holding lanterns, preparing for today's various matters.
Still outside Feishui Pavilion, the two little maids from last night came here and knocked carefully on the door, calling constantly: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
Li Qian was still asleep when he felt someone shaking his arm next to him.
"Well... don't make trouble..."
He blinked, turned over, and was about to go back to sleep.
Changsun Wugou said with a bit of embarrassment on his face: "Your Majesty, it's time for you to get up and go to court."
After calling a few more times, Li Qian finally opened his eyelids with difficulty.
The first thing you see is a delicate white snow, which is extremely eye-catching in the dim environment.
Li Qian subconsciously turned over and hugged his eldest grandson Wugou. Feeling the warm breath in his arms, his hands began to be dishonest.
"What kind of court are you going to? Let's rest for a while."
Changsun Wugou's face turned red, and he spent a lot of strength before he pushed Li Qian away with difficulty: "Your Majesty... this is your first court meeting since you ascended the throne..."
The beauty tried her best to persuade, but Li Qian reluctantly opened his eyes and let out a long sigh.
He didn't know that this was the first court meeting, but when he thought of facing those cunning ministers, he felt a little conflicted.
"That's all!"
Li Qian sat up helplessly, he had to show his face.
It's just that he is not used to being taken care of by others, and he has to get up and get out of bed to get dressed by himself.
Fortunately, Li Qian had done some research on these ancient costumes in his previous life, and these were summer clothes, very thin and simple.
When it comes to winter or other times, he will have no choice but to be taken care of.
Li Qian put on his clothes and walked out the door. Before going out, he turned around and said to Changsun Wugou: "Beauty, I will come to see you when I come back from the court."
"His Majesty……"
Changsun Wugou's face turned red, and he bit his lip lightly. He stood at the door of Feishui Pavilion and watched him leave.
