I was given the contraceptive soup and became the emperor's white moonlight

"Miss Li." Xiao Xizi handed the head ornaments on the plate to her and said, "Your Majesty knows that you will be neglected for a while and is particularly reluctant to let you go, so he specially ordered me to send you a set of the best head ornaments."

"Miss, please take a look. Are your eyes still aligned?"

The headdress chosen by Xiao Xizi was extremely gorgeous. It was adorned with colorful jewels and reflected the sunlight, emitting colorful light. It won Li's heart at first sight.

This set of headgear had actually been piled up in the storehouse for a long time. Although valuable, it was too gorgeous. Ordinary concubines could not afford such a dazzling thing, and the concubines in high positions looked down on such vulgar things, so it had nowhere to go for a while.

Xiao Xizi was certain that Li preferred these flashy items, so as soon as he saw the headdress, he asked for it immediately.

"Not bad, not bad!" Li immediately took the headdress in her hand and couldn't let it go. However, she didn't want to lose face in front of Xiao Xizi, so she touched it twice and put it down reluctantly.

"I wonder what your majesty has been busy with these days? Why is he unwilling to come to my palace every day?"

"It's the end of the year, and your majesty has a lot of things to deal with. I hope you will be considerate." Xiao Xizi replied with a smile: "Given your majesty's love for you, you must have some work that you can't let go of, otherwise how could you bear to leave you alone?"

"Well, then you have to remind His Majesty not to work too hard. If anything happens to His Majesty, I will make you pay!"

Li waved her hand and asked the palace maid beside her to put away her headgear. She looked down at Xiao Xizi with a haughty attitude. She always looked down on these eunuchs. What's the point of them all being able to fawn on their masters?

She is different. She will be a master in the future. She will be the master of the six palaces. There is no reason for her to make friends with a group of eunuchs.

"Yes, I'll remember that." Xiao Xizi responded with a smile. The contempt that flashed across his eyes was hidden very well. The woman in front of him was still deeply favored by the emperor. When the emperor got tired of her one day in the future, there would be plenty of people who would take advantage of her misfortune without him having to do anything.

It's not worth it to fight with such a fool.

"Okay, you have nothing to do here." Li waved her hand and told him to go out quickly, with a look of contempt.

Xiao Xizi was not angry. He bowed respectfully with a smile on his face and left. The young eunuch beside him saw him leave and followed him quietly.

"Eunuch Xi, Eunuch Xi!"

"Hmm?" Xiao Xizi turned around unhappily, and when he saw that it was the young eunuch, his expression eased, "What's wrong?"

"Eunuch Xi, is His Majesty really handling official business?" The young eunuch took out a jade bracelet from his sleeve and quietly placed it in little Xizi's hand.

Xiao Xizi glanced at him, and he said hurriedly: "Eunuch Xi, please don't misunderstand! I am just trying to make a living."

"You don't know, if your majesty neglects that person for a day, that person will get very angry, and we servants will suffer."

Xiao Xizi nodded, then accepted the jade bracelet, glanced at the inner hall with a cryptic look and said, "It's almost the end of the year, and some things should have started a long time ago."

"The concubine is ill, and His Majesty has been busy visiting her these past few days."

"However, considering the status of your master in His Majesty's heart, what's the big deal about not seeing him for a few days?" Xiao Xizi paused and said, "I'm only giving you a heads up because I think you're sensible. If I knew you were betraying me, you'd better watch your tongue."

"Don't worry!" The young eunuch hurriedly thanked him, "Don't worry, Eunuch Xi, I know what's going on and I won't say anything more."

"That's better." Xiao Xizi looked him up and turned away.

The young eunuch looked at him, turned around and hurried back into the house, calling out in a low voice as he walked: "Girl, girl! Something bad has happened!"

"Oh! Idiot!" Xiao Xizi walked out of the gate of Taiji Hall and threw the jade bracelet to the guard at the gate: "Brothers, take it and exchange it for some silver. Share it among the brothers. Thank you for your hard work."

"Thank you, Eunuch Xi!" The guards were naturally delighted to receive the bracelet. "Eunuch Xi, please tell us what you want us to do. We will see to it that it is done for you."

Xiao Xizi walked a few steps and then turned back, took out a piece of silver from his pocket and handed it to one of them, saying, "Nothing else, but I would like to trouble you to bring some things back from outside the palace for my family."

"Just give your orders, sir."

"Go ask your daughters what kind of gadgets they like and find something rare. If you don't have enough money, tell us."

"Okay, I'll definitely get it done for you." The guard nodded hurriedly and put the silver away carefully.

Xiao Xizi nodded and turned to walk towards Concubine Shu.

"Is the Concubine Shu here?"

A strange eunuch knocked on the door of Linglong Palace, and soon the guards brought Nanxing out.

"I am the eunuch who delivers imperial edicts to His Majesty. I wonder if Concubine Su is in the palace?"

The eunuch asked with a whisk in his hand and bowed slightly. Nanxing turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation, saying, "Please, eunuch. The queen is already waiting for you."

"Thank you." The eunuch nodded and followed Nanxing in.

The two of them arrived at the main hall and went in directly without reporting. The eunuch was about to salute when Su Minglang interrupted him, "No need to be so polite, sir."

"But what is His Majesty's will?"

"No, I am here to tell you that the autumn hunt will begin today. We will set out from Zhengyang Gate in three days. His Majesty has specially granted you permission to go with us. I hope Your Majesty will be ready soon."

"Okay, I understand." Su Minglang nodded slightly. Nanxing on the side had already stuffed the silver into the eunuch's hand.

After seeing him happily accept it, Su Minglang asked, "I wonder how many concubines are traveling with you this time?"

"Besides you, there are also the Empress and the Consort."

"Hmm." Su Minglang nodded thoughtfully, "Okay, thank you for your help, eunuch."

"Nanxing, see your father-in-law off."

The eunuch bowed and said goodbye, and Nanxing followed him to see him off.

"Master, then Li won't go?" Xiao Ye asked as he looked at the list that was handed over.

"Li is not a concubine in the harem, so she is not included in the separate column. I think she is traveling with His Majesty's carriage." Su Minglang said indifferently: "It doesn't matter whether she goes or not. The purpose of this trip is not with her."

"The autumn hunting grounds are closed everywhere. What are you going to do?" Xiao Ye asked in confusion. "This Concubine Shu will go with you. Doesn't Your Majesty rarely go to her place?"

"Things are different now." Su Minglang smiled, "We'll know when the time comes. Go and gather some things."

“Don’t bring anything too complicated.”

"Yes." Xiao Ye saw that she was in high spirits and stopped disturbing her. He nodded and went back to pack up.
