A contemptuous smile appeared on Su Jinhua's little face, "Okay, Your Highness, Concubine Chen, is afraid of hurting her precious body. Then instead of comparing it to swordsmanship, how about comparing it to sword dancing? Let's see whose sword dance is soft yet strong, graceful and powerful.
"
Xuanhuang teleported in front of Su Jinhua with a strange smile on his face. He was obviously smiling, but the coldness in his eyes was extremely frightening.
Miss Su Jinhua was frightened by such a black phoenix, and she subconsciously took a step back. When she realized what she was doing, she found that she was forced by her momentum and fell behind half of the crowd before she even made a move. She was extremely angry in her heart.
"Your Highness, Concubine Chen, please show mercy!" Su Bufan was shocked and stood up.
Xuanhuang waved his hand to stop Su Bufan from stepping forward. Looking into Su Jinhua's dark eyes, a hint of sarcasm flashed across his face, "I, Xuanhuang, was born to respect warriors and swords! I never play with my sword!"
In the golden palace, all the guards looked at their imperial wife with reverence. There was an emotion called excitement in their hearts, and their eyes were tightly grasped...
Xiao Yunchen slowly came to her side and couldn't help but reach out to hold her little hand. His dazzling Huang'er...
"My sword is a killing sword! It is not used for anything else!"
The overwhelming momentum directly forced Su Jinhua back ten steps, and he stood there with a pale face and helpless.
"It's boring to compete with someone who is too inferior to me. I'm sorry that I have no interest in accompanying you." Such a refusal made Su Jinhua feel more embarrassed than defeating her in the challenge. If her father, Su Bufan, hadn't caught her, she would have pounced on her long ago.
Go up and bite Xuanhuang.
This woman is so hateful, how dare she ridicule the eldest lady of Tianfeng Tower like this.
Su Bufan sighed. With his eyesight, he had already seen that the king did not care about his daughter. And the king was not a person who could use coercion or inducement to be useful to him. Naturally, it was impossible for him to do anything to Su Bufan in order to win over Tianfeng Tower.
My daughter treats me differently.
Su Jinhua, who had never suffered any grievance in her life, cried in her father's arms. Unexpectedly, searching for her husband thousands of miles away would turn out to be a tragedy!
As soon as Xiao Yunchen and Xuanhuang left the Hengwu Hall, the guy hurriedly picked up Huang'er and ran to the palace in a hurry.
After entering the door, Xiao Yunchen hugged Huang'er and refused to let go. He looked up and down and saw that she was smiling without any displeasure. Then he breathed a sigh of relief, hugged her tightly and kissed her, "Huang'er,
It’s okay if you don’t get angry.”
"Who says I'm not angry?" Xuanhuang stretched out his finger and pointed at his forehead, "I don't think there is any need to be angry with that idiotic woman. Besides, there are so many Yingying Yanyans around you. If I were to be angry with them all,
If I have to be angry, then wouldn’t I just make myself angry to death?”
"You're talking nonsense. I won't allow you to talk nonsense." Xiao Yunchen reached out to cover her mouth angrily and placed a kiss on her forehead. "My Huang'er will live a long life and will be with me for the rest of his life."
.”
"Huh." Huang'er stretched out her hand and pushed his forehead, "Don't think that just because you say nice things, I can get along with you. Put me down."
"Oh." Xiao Yunchen hurriedly put Huang'er down, but held her waist with both hands and refused to let go.
Huang'er glared at him coquettishly, "What are you doing? I've been tired all day. I want to take a bath and go to bed. Why don't you let go?"
Xiao Yunchen let go of his hand in a silly manner, nodded and said, "I'll ask Dong'er to come over and serve you."
Huang'er nodded, kissed Xiao Yunchen on the lips, and ran away with a blushing face.
There is a large natural bathing pool inside, which Huang'er likes very much. He doesn't get such imperial treatment elsewhere.
So she had no objection at all to letting her live in Chengqian Palace. Xiao Yunchen used this bath to lure her here and sleep with her every night...
She took off her clothes and moved her bare legs towards the edge of the pool. Her left leg slowly submerged into the water, followed by her right leg. She leaned against the edge of the pool, letting the warm water ripple on her chest.
A slight smile appeared on Huang'er's lips.
The little hands flicked the crystal light green water surface one after another.
There is a scent of flowers in the air that makes people dizzy...
Xuanhuang sighed softly, stretched out, leaned against the pool and closed his eyes. This feeling was quite comfortable.
The sound of footsteps sounded softly.
Xuanhuang closed his eyes and said calmly, "Dong'er, give me the bath towel."
The soft bath towel fell on her head, covering her head like a mess of grass...
In an instant, the towel slipped from her transparent head and fell into the pool.
Transparent Huang'er?
It's actually the Nine Yuan True Fire Shaping Clone?
The figure suddenly stepped back. An iron-black stick came over and was placed on his throat. A cold voice suddenly sounded, "I advise you not to move easily."
"It's just a little joke." The man's watery eyes looked pitifully at Xuanhuang, who had a solemn look on his face, "Don't be like this, Huang'er, how long have we not seen each other?"
Xuanhuang wanted to stick a stick into his throat...
Sneaking into the girl's bathhouse and greeting her in this way is not a good thing no matter how you look at it!
"Chu Linfeng, don't think that I won't kill you."
"You won't." Someone blinked his bright eyes, "I traveled all the way through mountains and rivers to find Huang'er, and I just want to see Huang'er. If Huang'er kills me again, it will be unreasonable!"
"Huang'er, who are you talking to?" Xiao Yunchen's lazy voice came from outside.
Chu Linfeng immediately looked at Xiao Huang'er with pleading eyes and whispered, "Huang'er, be good, hush hush, hush..."
"Shhhh!" Xuanhuang knocked him hard, turned to Xiao Yunchen and shouted, "It's nothing, I'll take a shower for a while, you're not allowed to come in."
"Oh." Someone outside responded sadly, and the footsteps stopped. He thought it was because the voyeur's plot failed to succeed, and he felt extremely melancholy.
Xuanhuang was secretly amused. He dragged Chu Linfeng, who had not resisted, and pushed him to a stool aside, pressing him down with the Thunder-breaking Demonic Rod. "Honestly, why did you sneak here?"
Chu Linfeng coughed lightly, folded his slender legs, and stretched out his hand to dust a corner of his robe. His movements were slow and leisurely, and it was obvious that he was being held hostage. He did not forget to be elegant, "Huang'er... if I said that I came to find you,
.”
Xuanhuang reached out and pinched his face hard.
Someone grimaced in pain, his image completely gone, "It hurts, it hurts, Huang'er, why are you so rough? I don't know what gentleness is..."
Xuanhuang suddenly put his hand on Chu Linfeng's forehead, looked at him carefully from top to bottom, and said to himself, "Did he hit the door panel and knock him unconscious?"
Chu Linfeng looked at her dumbfounded, "Who hit the door?"
"Then are you sick or something? As the king of Chu State, you came to Beixiao secretly. If I throw you out, will the officials of Xiao State let you go?"
"Huang'er, you think I'm stupid." Chu Linfeng's voice was already pleasant, but now he deliberately slowed down his speech and added a touch of charm, making it even more bewitching.
Xuanhuang was startled, and suddenly sneered, "I have forgotten the space-tearing trick of Master Anhao. You must have torn the space from somewhere far away. Congratulations, you have torn the space. I have become more proficient in using it.”
Chu Linfeng glanced at Huang'er a little frustrated.
I really can't figure it out. Usually when he talks to women in such a seductive voice, the women can't help but blush and fall into his arms.
But among these ordinary people, his Huang'er didn't seem to be included. How could Huang'er still talk to him in such a calm tone?
Chu Linfeng still doesn't know that our Huang'er family is one-minded. Once you identify someone, you will never think about other people.
Xuanhuang glanced at him indifferently, "You definitely didn't come here just to visit me."
She took a stool in one hand and placed it opposite him, and sat down, "Actually, I know even if you don't tell me."
"What do you know?" Chu Linfeng asked pretending to be confused.
"The water in the pool and the smell in the air, I knew it as soon as I walked into this place. This is a fusion toxin." Xuanhuang stared into his eyes and said lightly, "Chu Linfeng, that teacher of yours, want to Kill me."
Chu Linfeng's eyes darkened, and he slowly put away his playful expression, "Huang'er..."
"I let him go this time, even if...for the sake of my fellow countrymen." Xuanhuang reached out and patted Chu Linfeng's shoulder heavily, "You'd better persuade him to leave my Beixiao Palace and go back with you. Next If only once, I will kill him with my own hands!"
"Huang'er."
Xiao-yun-chen*xuan-huang
Xuanhuang turned his back to Chu Linfeng, walked slowly to the edge of the pool, and explored the warm water with his jade feet.
But I saw a circle of ripples spread out, and in less than half a second, the entire water surface was reflected with a touch of jade-like aqua blue, and it was suddenly transparent, reflecting Xuanhuang's cool and delicate face.
Xuanhuang raised his hand to stop Chu Linfeng from speaking, and smiled coldly, "I don't have to show mercy to a person who wants to kill me over and over again."
Colluded with Queen Huangfuling of Xichang, and wanted to use the death of the little princess to trigger a war between Northern Xiao and Southern Tang...
"Chu Linfeng, do you have any unknown relationship with Yun Chen?"
Xuanhuang didn't look back, and there was silence in the air. Maybe Chu Linfeng had torn apart the space and walked away.
She stretched out a jade foot and walked into the pool. She slowly sank into the water. She gently touched the water with her bare hands and murmured to herself, "Don't let me down. There is no use in framing others. Huang'er still has I'm not so stupid as to fall into your trap."
"If you can cure the poison I gave you, then you must be the... mole that Chu Linfeng placed in the Northern Xiao Imperial Court. It's a pity, our family would frown upon encountering this kind of poison. As for you, I guess you are not that capable."
"Hehehe." Huang'er lay on the edge of the pool and chuckled, closing her eyes, "Space passage? It's nothing more than that."
The palace people who were coming in and out were greeted by the old lady Mao Dan, and they were busy serving the old lady, serving tea, water and cakes, passing by like a flowing stream.
The old lady was lying on her side on the kang, looking abandoned. Mao Dan massaged her acupuncture points with essential oil and asked in a low voice whether the Queen Mother was feeling better.
Concubine Shao Shu sat opposite her, talking softly. Sun Guiren and You Xiaozhu accompanied her, chiming in a few words from time to time. The other women who had just entered the palace seemed a little restrained and didn't talk much.
He sat with him with a gentle smile.
"After the concubines returned, they all behaved like the Queen Mother, suffering from vomiting and diarrhea. I don't know if Her Highness Chen Fei didn't exercise caution when giving medicine to others, which caused us all to accidentally hit the passenger side.
." Concubine Shao Shu spoke calmly and held the old lady's hand carefully, "Queen Mother, are you feeling better?"
The old lady breathed a sigh of relief and nodded slightly, "The Ai family just had diarrhea all night..."
"This is the Queen Mother." Sun Ronger hurriedly climbed to the Queen Mother's bed, knelt there and spoke like a barrage of words, "Sister Shao and we are also in the same situation. It should be said that the people who attended the overnight banquet yesterday
, no matter the concubines or the ministers, all of them suffered from vomiting and diarrhea after returning home."
"If you say that Concubine Chen didn't do anything, no one will believe it." Yu Jincai interrupted and nodded, "Queen Mother, you must question Concubine Chen about this matter. Concubine Chen is the one who poisoned and used medicine.
The method is too terrible. I feel that in this harem now, there are really... many crises and traps everywhere. If you make the slightest mistake, you may suffer the murderous hands of the empress..."
"Okay." The old lady had a headache and felt uncomfortable. She had no time to listen to the complaints of the concubines. She waved her hands impatiently and said, "If Concubine Chen hadn't been here yesterday, all of you would have..."
"The Queen Mother." Mao Dan supported the Queen Mother, took the cushion from the hands of the two palace maids and stuffed it behind the old lady's waist, "The Queen Mother, I have invited the doctor from the Royal Hospital to come over and diagnose the Queen Mother."
The old lady nodded slightly, and the imperial medical officer came forward to check her pulse, prescribed some prescriptions, and then went back to grab some medicine.
After being interrupted impatiently by the Empress Dowager, Sun Ronger and Eugene Cai did not dare to speak again, but they were unconvinced in their hearts.
The Queen Mother sighed and looked at the concubines with different expressions present, "If Concubine Chen really wants to poison you and harm you, how can you still sit here in peace now?"
Concubine Shao Shu and the others looked at each other and lowered their heads involuntarily.
The Queen Mother patted Sun Ronger's hand and said, "People have to have a long memory. Ronger, you forgot that you were lying in bed for four or five months to recuperate. You were too impulsive at that time, and that's why you did bad things."
"Queen Mother."
Empress Dowager Sun shook her hand and said, "The Ai family is getting old too. From now on, the Ai family will no longer interfere in the affairs of the harem. You can all take matters into your own hands."
When the Queen Mother said this, she sighed deeply.
The emperor has made up his mind to make Xuanhuang his queen. In less than half a month, the new queen will take the throne. Who will be the master of the harem instead of her?
Just looking at the way she handled things last night and the awe-filled eyes of the ministers looking at her, the Queen Mother felt that the situation was over.
If you can't fight, if you can't fight, it's better to delegate power early and live your life with peace of mind.
"Shu Concubine." The Queen Mother turned to look at the gentle and elegant Shao Shu Concubine, "Shu Concubine, you have been in the palace for many years and you have always understood the general situation. The Ai family has nothing to worry about you. From now on, we will need you for the affairs of the harem.
Please be more patient..."
"Queen Mother, this is what I should do."
"Report to the Queen Mother and ask for an audience with the little princess of the Jade Kingdom."
Several plates of exquisite pastries on small plates were presented in front of the Queen Mother. A palace official picked up a piece for the Queen Mother and took a few bites.
The old lady nodded frequently with a smile on her face and said, "Little Princess Huarong, she is indeed a close disciple of the first god of cooking in the Heyu Kingdom. Her cooking skills are really amazing. These kinds of pastries are beautiful in color and sweet and soft in the mouth.
It’s truly a masterpiece.”
"The Queen Mother is so grateful."
The old lady looked at the well-behaved, gentle and considerate little princess, and recalled her classmate Huang'er who was jumping up and down like a monkey, and couldn't help but sigh.
I don’t know how the emperor’s eyes got so long. There were so many virtuous and virtuous women lining up for him to choose, but he just liked the girl from the mountain village.
"Your Majesty, the little princess Huarong is not only good at making pastries, she can also cook all kinds of dishes, and she is even good at making tea."
"Ah, Little Princess Huarong is truly worthy of being the most beloved daughter of the Lord of the Jade Kingdom." The Queen Mother smiled and nodded, "In such a comparison, we girls from Beixiao will really be outdone by Little Princess Huarong.
"
"The Queen Mother." The little princess of Heyu Kingdom showed a shy smile, "All the sisters are much older than Huarong in terms of seniority. Huarong can do it, so of course all the sisters are not bad either."
When Sun Rong'er heard this, she was so angry that her nose and eyes were all wrinkled. She said rudely, "What do you mean, little princess Huarong? It means that we are very old, so we are not as good as
Are you young and beautiful?"
The little princess Hua Rong immediately waved her hands in panic, "No, no, no. Sister, Hua Rong doesn't mean that. Hua Rong wants to say..."
"Okay Rong'er." The Queen Mother Sun looked at the irritable niece, her head ached extremely, she scolded her and then stepped back, turning to the little princess Huarong and said, "Sun Guiren misunderstood the meaning of the little princess Huarong.
Don’t take Huarong to heart.”
"It's Hua Rong's inability to speak that makes my sister unhappy."
Sun Ronger snorted and gave her a cold look.
After chatting for a few more words, Xiao Yunchen and Huang Er came to greet the Queen Mother. When the concubines in the room heard that the emperor was coming, they all felt as if they had been given blood. They hurriedly straightened their clothes and hair, and knelt down to greet Xiao Yunchen.
Xuanhuang was not happy to come, but she had to come over to see the reactions of the Queen Mother and the concubines.
Following Xiao Yunchen, he casually gave a salute to the Queen Mother. When he raised his head, he glanced over and printed everyone's facial expressions in his mind in detail.
When the Queen Mother saw Xuanhuang, she actually felt a little uncomfortable. After the Emperor finished greeting her, the Queen Mother said to Xuanhuang in a rare good-natured voice, "Yesterday, it was all thanks to you, Concubine Chen, for blocking Su Bufan's attack for us."
One blow, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable."
"It's just a matter of effort, the Queen Mother doesn't need to take it to heart." Huang'er shrugged slightly and spoke very casually. He didn't deliberately flatter the old lady, and his attitude was not arrogant. He just spoke in a calm tone, as if chatting with neighbors about everyday things.
When Sun Ronger and the others looked at it, they couldn't help but feel angry. The concubines there exchanged glances.
Yu Jincai suddenly smiled and said, "Ah, I heard that Her Royal Highness Concubine Chen Yunwen Yunwu is a very amazing genius. I just don't know if she has anything special about cooking?"
"Yes." The other young master caught Sun Ronger's look and hurriedly interjected, "As for us women, literary talent and martial arts are all secondary. The most important thing is to be able to enter the kitchen.
You can go out of the hall. If you know how to needlework or cook, you can sew a long gown for your husband and make delicious food."
When Xuanhuang heard this, he immediately turned around and glared at Xiao Yunchen. Why are you so poor that you need your wife to sew clothes and cook for you? You must remember that you are marrying a wife, and you must take care of her as a Bodhisattva in every possible way, not a Filipino servant.
…
Xiao Yunchen understood the little guy's scary and murderous eyes in an instant.
The innocent Xiao Yunchen gave her a big smile: This is not what I said. I didn't ask you to do anything.
"This is made by little Princess Huarong." A young master held up a plate of snacks made by the little princess, looked at Xuanhuang with a smile, and said, "I don't know how the craftsmanship of Your Highness Concubine Chen compares with that of Little Princess Huarong.
Who is it, slightly better?"
The little princess Huarong glanced at Xuanhuang's stern look, and immediately reached out to grab the plate held by the little master. She kept shouting, "Of course Her Highness Chen Fei is superior in skills. There is no need to compare with this, little master."
Please put that plate of pastries away, little master."
The young master shouted reluctantly, "That's not certain. Who is more skilled? You will only know after a comparison. Do you sisters think so?"
"That's right!"
"Little Princess Huarong, what can you do if you reluctantly compete with Concubine Chen in your cooking skills?"
What better than cooking???
Xuanhuang was filled with questions and couldn't figure it out. How did things develop in this direction?
She is the kind of person who is not even happy to cook instant noodles when she sees them. If anyone competes with her in cooking, she will be better than her!
"Have you had enough trouble?" Xiao Yunchen suddenly slapped the table with a loud bang, which frightened all the concubines to kneel down.
"It's getting late. Send the little princess Huarong back."
"It's the Emperor."
The beautiful little princess lowered her little head, hooked the veil with her fingers, bent her knees to Xiao Yunchen, Xuanhuang saluted, and quickly followed the eunuch out the door.
A gust of fragrant wind drifted by, and Xuanhuang suddenly turned back, staring at the back of the little princess, with a playful smile on his lips.
After Xiao Yunchen said goodbye to the Queen Mother, he took Huang'er's little hand and walked out.
Huang'er walked a few steps and suddenly stopped, turned to look at the Queen Mother, and smiled gently, "The Queen Mother, I wonder if you can give me the snacks that the little princess Huarong just sent to me?"
The Queen Mother was startled, and Concubine Shao Shu knelt down unhappily, "Concubine Chen, what you said is a bit too much. How can you ask for it from the Queen Mother yourself? There are no rules..."
