Queen's favorite

Early the next morning, Qi Changle sat in front of the dressing table, waiting for Suqiao to tie her hair.

She lowered her eyes, with a faint emotion in her eyes.

Qi Changle is going to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to thank him.

To be honest, she has been acting for a long time recently, maybe because she is a little tired, maybe it is also because... when facing Zhong Liyu, she always has emotions and thoughts that should not appear, so these days, Qi Changle is actually not very willing to get in close contact with Zhong Liyu again.

Speaking of which, she is also ruthless. She used Zhong Liyu to deal with Concubine Ying before, but now that the matter is over, she still doesn't want to get closer.

But firstly, she wants to thank the decree, and secondly, she wants to ask about Qi Tianxiang, so it is impossible not to miss Zhongliyu.

What's more, Qi Changle also wanted to comfort herself, her situation should be mostly the former - that is, she was tired from acting, definitely not the second situation.So the more she is like this, the more she can't relax, otherwise, if she makes a mistake, she will follow in the footsteps of Concubine Ying.

To her, Zhongliyu's love is very important.

Because of this, she had to hold on tightly.

But Qi Changle was a little worried about what to give as a thank you gift this time.

It seems that everything that should be sent...

Qi Changle's eyes narrowed slightly, thinking of something he hadn't sent yet.

She drooped her eyes and raised the corners of her lips lightly, knowing what she knew.

Suqiao asked: "What kind of makeup do you want to wear today, master?"

Qi Changle raised his eyes, looking at the beautiful woman in the mirror who looks like a lotus in water, he was a little dazed.

Once upon a time, she also thought about using her appearance as capital to gamble; after all, Qi Changle knew that she was born beautiful, and she was very grateful for it, and did not shy away from it, because it was her capital.

Facts have proved that Qi Changle would have won the bet on Wang Congyun if he hadn't entered the palace.

But after entering the palace, the king is still Zhong Liyu, so her appearance is not very useful.

Qi Changle smiled lightly, brushing her cheek with her fingertips.

But even so, so what?

A beauty acting like a baby is better than an ugly acting like a baby.

Not to mention that this beauty is crying with pear blossoms and rain, and her eyes are full of longing and admiration, which is even more touching.

Qi Changle thought for a while: "Dress up brightly, by the way, I remembered a crabapple from His Majesty's reward yesterday, let's plug that in."

Suqiao should be on her knees.

Soon, Qi Changle was dressed up.

She looked up at herself in the mirror.

Graceful and charming, with bright eyes and gazing, red lips slightly parted, still wanting to speak.

Qi Changle ran his fingertips across his clean forehead, "Let's put another flower tin on it."

Suqiao: "What kind of pattern does the master want to post?"

Qi Changle didn't care about this.

"It's fine, remember to pair it well with Haitang Buyao."

"Yes."

Suqiao, who was ingenious and handy, quickly pasted the flowers, and finally asked Qi Changle to check in the mirror.

Qi Changle's eyelids lifted, with a smile in his eyes. "That's fine."

After all, who doesn't like to see bright beauties.

This time, Qi Changle did not bring Suxi with him to the Hall of Mental Cultivation. The other party followed her order to bring the imperial doctor to treat Yingshou. Let alone lie down for a long time.

If the imperial doctor hadn't been around to watch more, Qi Changle was afraid that he would have passed away prematurely because of the revenge of those concubines in the harem who had been bullied by him.

His leg injury was already serious, and the patient's unwavering mind made it even slower to heal.

But Qi Changle doesn't care about these things, anyway, he ordered her to help save him, the leg should be his own, it's up to him whether he wants it or not.

Suqiao supported Qi Changle, and carefully suppressed her excitement.

After all, this was the first time she went to the Hall of Mental Cultivation with her master, and she was both nervous and excited.

This means that his master B is favored!

Or the kind that no one in the harem can get past.

When the two left the palace gate, they happened to run into Xu Zhaoyi who came in from the outside.The other party was obviously startled when he saw her, and then he was embarrassed for a moment.

Qi Changle keenly captured her emotions, and soon understood the reason for Xu Zhaoyi's embarrassment.

It must be the one Su Xi said before.

Not long ago, the two of them, one was Zhaoyi, the master of Jinle Palace, and the other was a nobleman, the side hall of Jinle Palace. They were at peace with each other; but they didn't want Qi Changle to be promoted so fast, and now they have been together with Xu Zhaoyi. sat down.

And because of the title, it is half a place higher than her.

It's usually nothing, but Qi Changle didn't move out, so it's a little... making people restrained.

Qi Changle bent his lips into a smile, took the initiative to walk over, and saluted Xu Zhaoyi.

Xu Zhaoyi was taken aback for a moment, but quickly realized.

Qi Changle chuckled lightly: "I've seen my sister."

Xu Zhaoyi bent her lips, and relieved from the sudden embarrassment just now.

She smiled and said, "Sister, this is humility to me. According to the etiquette, I should salute you at that time."

Qi Changle bent his eyes: "My sister entered the palace earlier than me, and I live in my sister's palace and receive more care, and I am both Zhaoyi, how can you salute me."

Xu Zhaoyi said: "That is to say, my sister has a title, so she should have a higher status than me."

Qi Changle raised her eyebrows slightly: "I don't care about this, sister don't have to be too polite, otherwise I won't feel at ease." After finishing speaking, she changed the subject, "Did sister just go out for a stroll?"

Xu Zhaoyi had no choice but to accept Qi Changle's humility, she nodded: "Exactly, I have nothing to do, so I went for a stroll, and by the way... went to Lenggong to see Yingshu."

Hearing the title of a common man, Qi Changle paused for a moment, and then became slightly curious, "Why did my sister also go to see Concubine Ying?"

Xu Zhaoyi covered her lips and smiled: "Sister doesn't know, I entered the palace later than Yingshu, so I also received some care from him."

Qi Changle suddenly realized, his eyes lightly focused.

It seems that she still underestimated Ying Xucheng.With that order from Yu Zhongli, the other party's life in the cold palace might not be as easy as she thought.

But I just don't know how King Shenjun will react to this.

Is it helpless obedience?Still dissatisfied.

Xu Zhaoyi asked courteously, "Why is my sister going out?"

Qi Changle smiled lightly: "Exactly, I'm going to the Hall of Mental Cultivation."

Hearing the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Xu Zhaoyi paused with a smile, and then said with some emotion and admiration: "Sister is indeed No. 1 in His Majesty's heart. I will rely more on my sister to take care of me in the future."

"where."

After the two exchanged simple greetings at the gate of the palace, Qi Changle bid her farewell and left.

After Qi Changle left, the smile on Xu Zhaoyi's face slowly subsided.

The maid beside her said cautiously: "Comparing people is really incomparable. Jue Zhaoyi has only been in the palace for how long, and the one who has been promoted is..."

Xu Zhaoyi shook her head lightly: "What's the use of just looking at status, I was Zhaoyi long ago, but look, do I dare to hang around in front of His Majesty? I don't dare to go in and out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation either. But Jue Zhaoyi, are different."

She lowered her eyes: "Some people are born to know how to be more likable than others."

"That's the way to say it, but it's really not extraordinary to be able to please His Majesty."

Xu Zhaoyi's eyelashes trembled slightly. "yes……"

Qi Changle came to the Hall of Mental Cultivation again, this time, she was not turned away.

After all, Zhongli Yuben wasn't tired of her, but because he was angry that he couldn't understand, so he wanted to let Qi Changle hang out on purpose, and that's why he refused last time.

But because of Concubine Ying's incident, and the time she saw Qi Changle crying and confessing his love to her, Zhong Liyu finally adjusted his mentality, and at the same time, he was reluctant to see Qi Changle anymore.

As soon as Qi Changle walked in, the servant waiting outside smiled and invited her in.

Qi Changle was slightly surprised: "Don't you need to report to His Majesty?"

The waiter smiled and said: "Of course other people have to report first, but Jue Zhaoyi is different from you. Your Majesty has an order. If you come, you don't need to report, just go in."

Qi Changle was startled for a moment, then a faint smile appeared in his lowered eyes.

"So, thank you, Your Majesty."

"That's true. This kind of favor has never been seen by other people."

Qi Changle smiled at him with curved lips, and then entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

As soon as she entered, Qi Changle smelled a strong scent of spices, which was the one she smelled in Tiyuan Hall, not ambergris.

Qi Changle frowned slightly, wondering if Zhong Liyu had another headache.

"The courtiers and concubines see your majesty, and all blessings are your majesty."

Zhong Liyu rested on the chair, with one hand resting on his temple, with a gloomy and irritable expression.After hearing Qi Changle's voice, she raised her head with a frown, and her brows relaxed after a while.

"Changle."

Qi Changle: "Yes." She paused, raised her eyes to look at Zhong Liyu, with concern in her eyes. "This spice was smelled by my concubine during the draft. It is used to treat headaches. Now His Majesty has ignited it again. But is the headache unbearable?"

In fact, it's not just a headache.

Because of the illness, Zhong Liyu has been suffering from headaches all the time, but the difference is that sometimes it is mild and sometimes it is severe.She can endure the usual small pains with perseverance, but if the pain is really serious, even with the help of spices, it won't be enough.

Zhong Liyu doesn't like others prying into her situation, and even more hates others guessing her own mind without authorization. These things... She has done it in front of Qi Changle before.

But now, Zhongliyu thinks it is not necessary or important.

Because of Changle, she is different.

So if someone asked Zhong Liyu about headaches or spices, Zhong Liyu would have beheaded him a long time ago, but such a question was asked by Qi Changle, so after a short pause, Zhong Liyu responded lightly with his usual expression .

She couldn't tell her emotions at the moment, but... After all, there was no discomfort or disgust.

Qi Changle got up, feeling a little worried.

"Your Majesty can't continue to suffer like this..." She said softly: "If Your Majesty doesn't mind, can I ask my concubine to massage you again? If it can relieve some of your pain, it would be great."

Zhong Liyu raised his eyes to look at her, and there was darkness in his beautiful eyes.

After a while, she pursed her lips and smiled, although she had a headache, she was still lazy.

"Okay."

She still remembered the pressing and kneading that Qi Changle had done for herself on the day of the draft.

Although it could not cure her headache, it gave Zhong Liyu a moment of relief.

But before, when Zhong Liyu had a headache, he never called Qi Changle to do this for her.

One is because of her natural defensiveness, even now, Zhong Liyu can't say that she trusts Qi Changle wholeheartedly, so asking her to take the initiative to give orders is tantamount to showing weakness.

For Zhong Liyu, this is absolutely impossible.

Because once she has a defect, she is in danger.

The second is... maybe there is a little pity.

Zhong Liyu didn't want Qi Changle to think that her existence in the harem, or the reason why she was favored by him, was just because of this.

But now...

Whether it is the former or the latter, in Zhongliyu's view, it is not too serious.Because she has been with Qi Changle for a while, and she is not just a stranger who is interested in Qi Changle.

Therefore, Zhong Liyu nodded in agreement.

After getting the answer, Qi Changle stepped forward in a soft voice, stood behind Zhong Liyu, and then stretched out his fingertips to place on the side of the opponent's head.

"The concubine offended me," she said.

Zhong Liyu hooked the corners of his lips, but he didn't care.

The familiar aroma spread to the tip of her nose, bringing a warm feeling. Feeling the gentle massage from the side of her head, Zhong Liyu slowly closed her eyes, feeling a moment of softness in her heart.

It seemed like she hadn't encountered such peace for a long time.

Since she learned of her life experience.

Since she was poisoned.

Since... all the fangs were exposed.

Recalling the past memories, Zhongli Yu still had bloody hatred in his heart.But it was different from the splitting headache in the past when he thought of these things, this time, Zhongli Yu was immersed in the scent of flowers, with a softness in his heart, facing the past, it was rare that he didn't have so much hostility.

Zhongli Yu's eyelashes trembled slightly, and then slowly opened his eyes.

The next moment, she suddenly grabbed Qi Changle's wrist.

Qi Changle paused for her rubbing movements, at first he was a little startled, but when he saw that Zhong Liyu's mood was still stable, he breathed a sigh of relief.

She tentatively asked, "Your Majesty?"

Zhongliyu let out a sound from his nose.

Qi Changle asked warmly: "Your Majesty doesn't need concubines to continue?"

Zhong Liyu: "Need."

Qi Changle moved his wrist slightly, a little at a loss, "Then..."

Zhong Liyu paused for a moment, with complicated emotions in his eyes, his dark eyes were dark like crow's feathers.

Then, she suddenly said softly: "But, I also want to touch you."

Qi Changle opened his eyes wide in surprise, for a moment he didn't understand Zhongliyu's meaning.

touch...?

She opened her lips, but it was the first time she didn't know what to say.

Then, Qi Changle felt Zhongliyu's fingertips stroking her pulse, although it was delicate and intimate, it did not show any aggression.

The emotions in Qi Changle's heart gradually calmed down.

Perhaps, she was thinking about it.

The skin in his hands was delicate and warm, the same skin as hers.In fact, to be fussy, the two are both women, and the skin between their wrists doesn't feel much different, it's just that one's wrist is warmer, while the other's is cooler.

But there won't be much difference.

But for some reason, Zhong Liyu could clearly feel that holding the other party's wrist at this moment.

This is Qi Changle.

Zhong Liyu recovered from the loss of consciousness just now, and then exerted a little force with his fingers to make Qi Changle come to her.

Qi Changle followed her strength and walked over, just about to squat beside Zhongliyu, but the other side stopped her.

Zhong Liyu stretched out his hand to pull her over, Qi Changle opened his eyes slightly, leaning forward because of her strength.She was unstable, her steps were chaotic, and her other hand was pressed on the armrest of the chair hastily.

Afterwards, Qi Changle felt a heavy weight on the back of her head, and she was pressed in front of her by Zhong Liyu.

Lips touch.

Qi Changle was bent over, although he was in a high position, Zhong Liyu was in charge of everything.

She was clearly sitting there, but her movements were forceful.

Qi Changle's eyes were clouded, her breathing was unsteady, and because of her standing posture, she was not standing very steadily, but she had nowhere to support her.

Zhong Liyu entangled her lips and tongue, pushing inwards with neither light nor heavy force.

Qi Changle felt numb, couldn't help snorting, and felt a little unsteady on his feet.

Zhong Liyu entangled her for a moment, then stepped back slightly and bit Qi Changle's lower lip, with a slight smile in his black eyes.Then, without waiting for Qi Changle to recover, she let go of Qi Changle's wrist, hugged her soft waist instead, stretched out her arms, and pulled him into her arms.

"—"

Qi Changle almost fell on Zhong Liyu, but at the moment she couldn't care less about this disrespectful thing.

Because the other party is lingering around her.

Like a water ghost, once entangled, it will die.

There are crystal water stains left, but no one cares.

The next moment, Zhong Liyu finally let go of her, but slowly kissed Qi Changle's ear and neck.

Qi Changle's pupils shrank slightly, his fingertips clenched tightly, and his body trembled slightly.

"His Majesty……"

Zhong Liyu took a bite on her neck.After a while, he slowly let go.

Qi Changle lowered her head and leaned on Zhongliyu's shoulder to pant and breathe calmly, her ears and lips were still hot, which lasted for a long time.

Her hair is a little messy, and some of the loose hair behind her is scattered in front of her body.

A slender white finger picked up a strand of her black hair, which was entwined around the fingertips. The black hair was in stark contrast to the white fingers, with an unwarranted luster.

Qi Changle's face turned red, and after she took a breath, she realized how indecent she was and her posture was inappropriate.

She wanted to stand up, but just when she straightened her waist, she met Zhong Liyu's hands around her waist, and had no choice but to sit back again.

Now Qi Changle's face turned red, she felt as if her whole body was on fire, and she wasn't even sure what her voice was like.

"His Majesty!"

Zhong Liyu's eyes were full of satisfaction, upon hearing this, she raised the corners of her lips and looked up at Qi Changle.

"Ok?"

Qi Changle's whole body is hot.

"The concubine... I have sat down to His Majesty, and I hope His Majesty will give me a little hand. The concubine is well, getting better."

Zhong Liyu smiled softly, "Why do you want to get up? Is it uncomfortable to sit like this?"

It was the first time Qi Changle encountered such a thing, she was so at a loss, she couldn't help biting her lower lip, her eyes were moist.

"Because the concubine is afraid that His Majesty will be injured."

Zhong Liyu loosened his arms around her, laughed softly, and asked, "How much do you weigh?"

Qi Changle pursed his lower lip, feeling a little embarrassed.

Zhong Liyu smiled and stopped teasing her.He drew his arms back and placed them by his side, signaling that she was able to get up.

Qi Changle blushed and got up from Zhongli Yu's arms.

She straightened her hair, then looked away, and wiped her lips.

Then, she remembered her intention to thank you for coming this time, so she pulled up her sleeves: "The concubine came here this time to thank you."

Zhong Liyu raised his eyebrows: "Oh? For which purpose?"

Qi Changle smiled slightly: "There are all of them."

"Thank you for the promotion and title, thank you for your majesty's love for your concubines, and for your majesty's quasi-concubine going out, thank you for your majesty's love for your concubines."

Zhong Liyu couldn't help laughing when he heard her thank you in such an extraordinarily serious and polite way, "Well, the tone is like a gentleman."

She bent her lips: "Then which will do you like best?"

Qi Changle was slightly stunned, and after a moment's pause, he originally wanted to say that he was thanking her for the first will, because the promotion and title both represented Zhong Liyu's regard for her.

The faster her status rose, the more important she was in Zhongli Yu's heart.So she was very happy.

But before opening his mouth, Qi Changle suddenly didn't want to say this answer.

Because... although this answer is correct, it is not what she really wants to answer.

Qi Changle narrowed his eyes, pursed his lips, and finally said: "What I most want to thank His Majesty is the second will."

Zhong Liyu propped his chin with one hand: "It means that you are authorized to attend Qi Tianxiang's marriage ceremony?"

Qi Changle pursed her lips and nodded.

"Yes. Your Majesty doesn't know something. The concubine has had a bad relationship with her sister-in-law since she was a child. She despises, loathes, and even hates the concubine unconditionally. Naturally, the concubine will not like her."

"My sister once said a lot of belittling things to my concubine. Although my concubine couldn't refute it face to face, she actually remembered all of them in her heart."

"The concubine... is not a perfect and good person. On the contrary, the concubine is very vengeful."

"But this time, His Majesty punished Qi Tianxiang for doting on his concubine. She will definitely make a lot of ugly appearances at her wedding ceremony, and she will definitely lose her composure when she sees her concubine coming."

"Chenqie, I want to see her lose her composure like that."

"so……"

She squatted down in front of Zhong Liyu slowly, resting her head on her knees, her eyelashes closed.

"The concubine wants to see her joke, does your majesty think such a concubine is ugly?"

Zhong Liyu looked down at the woman lying on his knees, his heart moved slightly, and he stretched out his hands to cover her face.

"How could it be?" Zhongli Yu said softly, his voice was softer than ever before.

She curled her lips, smiling happily.

"You are not afraid of me, how can I hate you?"

"It's better to say—"

She is very happy to control Qi Changle's weakness.

Even feel great pleasure about it.

"Then, in order to thank me for my will, do you want to send me something?"

Qi Changle raised his head, looked at Zhong Liyu from bottom to top, and smiled.

"To tell you the truth, the concubine does have a gift to give to your majesty."

Zhong Liyu raised his eyebrows, although his eyes didn't reveal much, but there was actually some anticipation.

Qi Changle's cheeks were slightly red: "But, can you allow this concubine to keep it a secret first? This concubine wants to give it to His Majesty as a surprise."

"Surprise?" Zhong Liyu smiled, "Okay. You are allowed to delay."

"But before that, I have to charge an interest."

Qi Changle raised his head in doubt, and then, with a tightening of his wrist, he was pulled into his arms.

The next moment, Zhong Liyu broke her chin, lowered his head and kissed her.

The author has something to say: let the high-judgment ball go! ! ! !above the neck! ! (emphasis) and the description is not too detailed! ! !

Bewitched

In the last chapter, everyone actually thought that Wang Xiyi had ulterior motives (shocked)

In fact, when I wrote her, I didn't intend to make her a bad person hahaha

Changle thinks that headaches are frequent and non-existent, but in fact headaches are mild and severe

Today at home, I welcomed the puppies, I almost missed the update orz

After waking up, the puppy can really make a fuss and bark, and he still leaks urine (?) Although it may be related to the marked location, but every time he leaks a few pieces of urine in the room, I really can’t stand it Woo, I thought I'd finish peeing outside, but who knows it's still trying to hold back! !
