Queen's favorite

Because of Qi Changle's repeated requests, Zhong Liyu didn't call the imperial doctor, but only asked Qi Changle as if confirming: "I'm sure it's okay, isn't it?"

The expression on Qi Changle's face did not change, she was still as gentle as water, even though she was lying at the moment.

She nodded, "Yes, don't worry, Your Majesty, the concubine just needs to rest for a while."

So Zhong Liyu nodded, and didn't insist on asking, but accompanied her back to her residence.

Although this is the royal hunting garden, it is not a prairie after all, so there is no need to live in tents, everyone has a small hall to live in; and Qi Changle's residence is of course arranged very close to Zhongliyu.

Zhong Liyu accompanied Qi Changle back to the house, then saw her lying on the bed, sat on the side to accompany her, and said: "Sleep, we will have a rest."

Qi Changle's eyelashes trembled slightly: "Your Majesty, go back too, there are Suxi and the others here, it doesn't matter."

Zhong Liyu lowered his eyes and glanced at her, apparently unmoved, and reached out to touch her forehead by the way, "There is no conflict between someone serving you here and me here, and it's not that the two can only be one or the other. Understand?"

She had a half-smile: "And you're not feeling well, so you still control me?"

Qi Changle was a little embarrassed by her last four words, she moved her body so that most of her face was covered by the quilt, her exposed eyes were covered with moisture, she looked a little shy.

"The concubine didn't mean that, nor did he 'control' His Majesty. The concubine was just worried that he would tire the majesty."

Zhong Liyu raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked her with a teasing smile: "I haven't done anything to you yet, how tired will I be?"

Qi Changle blinked her eyes in confusion at first, after all, she never thought that Zhong Liyu would say such words, but after she thought about it and heard it clearly, she opened her eyes wide in astonishment, like a frightened rabbit .

Obviously, she never thought that such teasing words would come from Zhongliyu's mouth.

Qi Changle clenched his fingers tightly, not knowing what to say.

Seeing her expression, Zhongliyu laughed, "Go to sleep."

Qi Changle blinked, "If Your Majesty doesn't dislike it... why don't you lie down together."

Qi Changle didn't think much when he said this, he was just worried about Zhongliyu.

After all, the other party occasionally suffers from some headaches, Qi Changle is still afraid that she will get tired due to lack of rest.

It just so happens that Zhong Liyu is going to take care of her at this time, so it's better to have a rest together, and it won't be too tiring.

But because of Zhong Liyu's words just now, Qi Changle realized that her words might cause her some misunderstandings, so she quickly explained: "Your Majesty, don't think too much, what the concubine said is really just a simple rest. .”

Zhong Liyu didn't think much about it, she just didn't expect the other party to say that.

Although such a proposal is really normal, it is still abnormal to put that sentence on Zhong Liyu's body, because no one would ever do that.

Zhong Liyu twirled her fingertips, feeling a little complicated in her heart, and then, she hooked the corner of her lower lip, and it was rare that she didn't refuse. "Also."

Anyway, she will have to adapt sooner or later.It's better to get used to it from here.

After hearing Zhongli Yu's response, Qi Changle moved to the outside, "Your Majesty, go inside and lie down."

Zhong Liyu didn't accept her favor, she propped one hand on the edge of the bed, and flicked Qi Changle's forehead with the other hand, then urged softly: "Go inside."

She smiled, her tone was lazy.

"I don't need you to take care of me yet."

Qi Changle heard her implication, pursed her lips, but did not refute, but obediently moved inside.

At this moment there were only the two of them in the room, and at such a moment, Zhong Liyu never liked being served by outsiders, so she stood up, stretched her fingers to her waist, took off her coat, and then sat back down again.

For some reason, it was obvious that they were simply resting together, but the moment Zhong Liyu approached, Qi Changle felt his heart beat a little faster.

She couldn't help biting her lower lip, trying to stop her feeling of being at a loss.

The quilt was lifted, and another person lay beside him.

Qi Changle carefully controlled his breathing, trying not to be too nervous or stiff.

The ambergris that was stained on the person's body came from the tip of his nose, and the touch and temperature of another person beside him made Qi Changle's cheeks slightly warm.

Zhong Liyu is not completely relaxed, after all, this is her first time sharing the same bed with someone, even if it is not for intimate things, it still makes her a little... need to adjust.

But fortunately, it's not others but Qi Changle, so for Zhongliyu, this is already the best medicine that can lead her to adapt.

Zhong Liyu turned sideways, facing Qi Changle.

The moment she saw the face of the other party, the rejection in her heart suddenly became very light, and all the vigilance, vigilance, and tense body that had been raised because of the strangeness just now slowly relaxed.There was a softness in Zhongliyu's eyes that even she hadn't noticed.Almost no adaptation is required.

Zhong Liyu looked at her with a smile on his lips.

"Why do not you rest?"

Qi Changle hastily lowered his eyes, his eyelashes trembling.

"Then the concubine... just rest first?"

Zhongliyu's smile deepened, and he couldn't help reaching out to stroke the hair on her cheek: "Mm."

Qi Changle held back his trembling heartbeat, then slowly closed his eyes, preparing to take a nap.

But she found that her accelerated heartbeat could not be stopped.

Moreover, now that she has lost her former calmness, it takes effort to calm down, let alone successfully fall asleep under such circumstances.

A normal heart, a normal heart... But it is impossible to do it.

Qi Changle quietly raised his eyes, Zhong Liyu's face was reflected in his eyes.

The other party was lying opposite her, with his eyes closed at the moment, as if falling into a deep sleep.

There was no superfluous expression on the face of the sleeping female monarch, only calmness remained, which was an expression that was extremely difficult to see on her face.

The beautiful and coquettish face fell into silence, with a sense of tranquil beauty.

The shadows have also faded a lot, leaving only peace.

Qi Changle felt that her heartbeat was gradually returning to calm. Looking at Zhongliyu's face, her heart also calmed down.When Qi Changle found out, she had unconsciously curled her lips.

So the other party is... already asleep?

After this thought flashed through his mind, Qi Changle suddenly wanted to do something secretly.

She lifted her upper body quietly, her hair slipped from her shoulders and hung on the soft pillow.

Qi Changle approached Zhongliyu's side, and carefully controlled his soft hair to prevent him from being swept away.

She lowered her head slowly, getting closer to her face.

Just, just secretly...

Qi Changle also couldn't tell what was causing the throbbing in her heart at the moment, but this was the first time she took the initiative to do this kind of thing to someone else.

Different from what he endured before, at this moment, Qi Changle had an idea of ​​wanting to take the initiative.

She held her breath slightly and clenched her fingertips.

Just secretly... touch it.

Her eyelashes trembled slightly, her brows were black, and she carried a kind of tranquility like a secluded well.

Then, breathing lightly, inch by inch, she approached Zhongliyu's face.

But just as she was about to post it, the other party suddenly opened his eyes.

Suddenly meeting those dark eyes, Qi Changle widened them in surprise, and froze in place.

And besides the shock, maybe it's more... embarrassment, and indescribable embarrassment.

The first emperor loved Zhong Liyu very much, so no matter what she asked, he would agree to it.

Therefore, Zhong Liyu learned martial arts from a martial arts senior since he was a child, and he never fell behind even after she was poisoned.

So when Qi Changle approached, she noticed it.

At first, he wanted to see what the other party was going to do, so Zhong Liyu didn't move or open his eyes.

But when the breath got closer and closer, Zhong Liyu realized that Qi Changle... wanted to kiss her.

Zhong Liyu laughed a little, but there was a slight movement in his heart.

Originally, she was supposed to help the other party, but she just pretended to be asleep with her eyes closed.

But Qi Changle's movements were too slow, and Zhong Liyu didn't want to pretend anymore, so she opened her eyes and happened to meet Qi Changle's eyes.

Qi Changle froze in place.

"Your Majesty... aren't you asleep?"

Zhong Liyu didn't move, kept the current posture, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked her with a smile: "Of course not, if he fell asleep, how could he find out that someone is trying to do bad things?"

Qi Changle blushed a little, after all, it was the first time for her to be caught, so it is needless to say that she felt ashamed.

She pursed her lips, ready to step back.

"Concubine, it wasn't intentional."

Zhong Liyu hooked her neck, and said with a smile: "It can be intentional."

She raised her eyebrows slightly, smiling alluringly.

"Forgive your innocence."

Qi Changle paused slightly, lowering his eyes to look at her.

"What His Majesty said is a promise?"

Zhong Liyu tapped the side of her face with his fingertips, and smiled a little wantonly, "I will never lie to you."

Qi Changle's eyes darkened, and his heart was agitated.She couldn't help taking a light breath, not only cheering herself up, but also... calming her mind.

Because of Zhong Liyu's words, Qi Changle stopped the momentum of retreating, she slowly lowered her head, and moved closer to him.

And Zhong Liyu didn't dodge or dodge, just raised his chin lightly, waiting for her with a conniving attitude.

Very patient and peaceful.

Qi Changle's eyelashes trembled slightly, and then he approached Zhongliyu.

She lowered her eyes, her arms slowly embraced him, and then her hair fell down and scattered on her sides. In the short shadow brought by the black hair, she lowered her head and kissed him lightly.

As she said, Zhong Liyu not only indulged, but also did not move around at will, but relaxed and handed over the initiative to Qi Changle.

With a smile on her lips, she waited for Qi Changle's strategy.

Qi Changle suppressed his breath and touched those warm lips.

She slowly lowered her body, imitating how Zhong Liyu treated her before, pried open the other's lips, and kissed her.

The jet-black eye feathers are like the wings of a butterfly, flapping gently from time to time, and the light and shadow cast form a shadow between the sides of the nose.

Feeling the other party's entanglement, Qi Changle breathed hot.

……

After it was over, Qi Changle seemed to have completely indulged himself, covering her opponent, and then buried his head on her neck, breathing calmly.

Zhong Liyu's lips were bright red, she smiled, and stretched out a hand to touch Qi Changle's back.

"Are you still resting now?" She asked as if on purpose.

Qi Changle moved, then moved away, her eyes were deeply emotional, her lips were still watery, and she was still a little shy.

After hearing Zhong Liyu's question, Qi Changle replied after a slight pause: "...Naturally."

Zhong Liyu chuckled, and pinched her waist with his hands.

"Then you are doing bad things, it doesn't look like you are going to rest at all."

Qi Changle was dumb, and couldn't explain or refute.

Because what Zhong Liyu said is true.

So she had no choice but to say softly: "That concubine will fall asleep after doing something bad."

Zhong Liyu couldn't help laughing.

"Okay, rest well," she said.

Qi Changle nodded and returned to the position just now.

This time, she closed her eyes seriously, preparing to rest.

In the afternoon, everyone went hunting together on horseback.

Although I don't know how the imperial concubine acted in the past two years, but this year he rode a horse on purpose, and then acted separately from them.

Zhongli Yu didn't care, but let him go with a nod.

"be careful."

Su Muhe smiled, with a very light conceit.

"Your Majesty, don't worry about me."

After all, he was General Su's son no matter what. Even though he had a cool literati air about him, some things in his bones could not be changed.

After the imperial concubine left, Zhong Liyu, Qi Changle and Xu Zhaoyi were left here.

Because today was only the first day, Xu Zhaoyi didn't seem to have taken any action, so Qi Changle naturally wouldn't be too wary of him.

Besides, the most important reason for her to accompany the hunt is to see things with Zhong Liyu that she has never seen or experienced before, not for the purpose of intrigue with Xu Zhaoyi.

In other words, she doesn't have that much power with her.

Therefore, Qi Changle put all his expectations on riding the horse.

Fortunately, Zhong Liyu did not forget, so she raised her eyebrows slightly, turned her head and said to Qi Changle: "Go, I will take you to ride a horse."

Qi Changle couldn't help evoking a smile, "Your Majesty said that he would teach his ministers and concubines."

Zhong Liyu chuckled: "Okay, I will teach you naturally. But before that, let me take you for a run, how about it?"

Qi Changle's eyes brightened slightly: "Okay."

Xu Zhaoyi, who had always been silent, looked at the two of them and clenched her fingers tightly. She took a deep breath, persuaded herself not to be nervous, and took a step forward.

"I don't know where Your Majesty and Jue Zhaoyi are going? If possible, let the concubine accompany you."

With a faint smile, she asked very gently.

Qi Changle paused, glanced at her, and met Xu Zhaoyi's gaze.

The other party's eyes were gentle, gentle and well-educated, and he didn't seem to be mixed with the so-called desire for favor.

Qi Changle lowered his eyes, feeling slightly complicated in his heart.

To be honest, she definitely didn't like Xu Zhaoyi's thoughts.but……

To a certain extent, Qi Changle is still evaluating whether a Xu Zhaoyi is worth trying to eliminate by himself.

If possible, she didn't want to leave a jealous image in Zhongli Yu's heart.

Maybe once or twice is always okay, and Zhongliyu will definitely protect her, but what if it takes a long time?

Qi Changle didn't want to consume Zhongliyu's specialness and pampering towards him so quickly.

Good steel should be used on the blade.

After weighing it up, Qi Changle felt that Xu Zhaoyi was not up to that threat, so she just smiled lightly and didn't speak.

On the contrary, Xu Zhaoyi looked over and apologized slightly.

"It's the first time for this concubine to come here, and she is not familiar with everything. She just hopes to be with someone she knows well. I hope Jue Zhaoyi doesn't mind."

Qi Changle raised his eyebrows slightly, and smiled with curved eyes: "Where, we serve His Majesty together, so we are as close as sisters, why should my sisters say such things?"

Xu Zhaoyi's face froze and he didn't answer.

After all, let's not say that the so-called "serving together" does not exist at all, but after learning about Qi Tianxiang's end, Xu Zhaoyi couldn't call Qi Changle sisters without any grievances.

Zhong Liyu raised his eyelids, looked at her with dark eyes, and smiled thoughtfully.

"Acquaintance?"

She smiled, a little casually, and slightly mockingly.

"The acquaintance you mentioned is me, or Changle?"

Xu Zhaoyi paused: "...of course it refers to His Majesty."

"Oh." Zhong Liyu nodded, the deeper the smile, the weaker the emotion in his eyes.

"Why, do you know me well? Why don't I know?"

"..."

Now, Xu Zhaoyi didn't know how to answer.

"Professing to know me well—" She tilted her head, "Don't you know what happened to the last person who knew me well?"

This sentence made Xu Zhaoyi's face turn pale with fright, and she immediately knelt down.

"Your Majesty's forgiveness!"

Zhong Liyu smiled and said: "What crime do you have? After all, you are someone who knows me well. By the way, since you are someone who knows me well, you may guess what punishment I will give you later?"

Xu Zhaoyi pursed her lips tightly, her face and lips were pale.

Some cold sweat oozes from her forehead, but she doesn't know how to answer.

At this moment, she seemed to have returned to the time of the draft.The nightmare seemed to come again.

Qi Changle glanced at it indifferently, and had to say that it looked familiar at the moment.

It seems that the prickly tyrant is back.

But compared to the fear and caution at that time, Qi Changle is very relaxed now.

Although being with a king is like a tiger, she has to be careful that she will be backlashed one day in the future, but at least for now, she is very happy.

After seeing Xu Zhaoyi's expression, Zhong Liyu laughed without any guilt, and then took Qi Changle's hand.

"Okay, let's go."

Qi Changle bent his lips, and did not intercede with Xu Zhaoyi, but obediently left with Zhong Liyu.

She thought, Xu Zhaoyi should be more sober.

Zhongliyu is always that Zhongliyu.Maybe her temper has softened a bit now, but... her nature has not changed.

After Zhong Liyu took Qi Changle for a ride, he fulfilled his promise and began to teach her how to ride.

Although Zhong Liyu is not a particularly good riding instructor, but I have to say that her points in some aspects are really useful, and they are easy to understand, so Qi Changle will be able to understand them.

But after a few rounds, she can already trot.

Of course, it might also be due to the docile temperament of this white horse, which saved Qi Changle a lot of time.

If it is a horse with other personalities, it is necessary to have a good relationship with it before riding.

But this horse directly helped Qi Changle skip this step.

Seeing that Qi Changle was a little familiar, Zhong Liyu looked at her with a smile on his arms, then stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers to ask someone to sign another horse.

She jumped up, holding the reins with both hands.

"Walk together?"

Qi Changle looked over with a smile in his eyes.

"Okay."

Under Zhongliyu was a black horse with graceful posture and smooth lines, and then snorted like a rebellious one, looking confident and elegant.

She was sitting on it wearing black clothes. Although it was similar in color to the horse, it was more heroic.

Zhong Liyu smiled, then clamped his legs, and ran forward with Qi Changle.

"drive--"

The warm wind blows across the cheeks, and there is a green green color in front of my eyes, with a kind of clarity that can wash everything.

It was the first time Qi Changle threw away his mask, and couldn't help showing a real smile.

Zhong Liyu glanced sideways at the smile on her face inadvertently, and was taken aback.

Qi Changle like this seems to be something she has never seen before.

However, it is equally dazzling and beautiful.

……

After riding, the two gradually stopped.After all, riding a horse is also a hard work, so you must take a proper rest.

Some sweat oozed from Qi Changle's forehead, but her expression was very happy.

They led the horses and walked slowly. At this time, the sky was already turning towards evening, and there were one or two clouds that looked like fire in the distance, which was very beautiful.

Zhong Liyu glanced back at her, fiddled with the reins with his fingers.

"I have never seen you smile like this in the palace."

The speaker had no intentions, but Qi Changle couldn't help but feel his heart tighten.

She bent her lower lip: "What kind of smile is your Majesty referring to? Isn't it always like this for my concubines?"

Zhong Liyu shook his head.

"It's more than that."

"Your smile now should be even more..." She pondered slightly, "Happy."

At the same time, it seemed to let go of some restraints, revealing the truest self.

Of course, Zhong Liyu didn't think about other things, she was just thinking about whether the pressure and constraints on Qi Changle in the harem were too great, so that she had to be cautious.

Even if she has already won her own favor.

Zhong Liyu thought about it.

Seeing that the other party didn't see through her disguise, Qi Changle felt a little relieved, and then said: "Not really. Maybe it's just that the concubine rarely rides a horse. It's the first time I've seen such a thing, so I'm looking forward to it."

Zhong Liyu came back to his senses and smiled.

"What's the matter, turn around and you can just lead this horse to the palace, if you want to ride it, you can ride it anytime."

Qi Changle laughed: "Your Majesty was joking, there is no place as wide as a hunting ground in the imperial palace."

Zhong Liyu didn't care, and said casually: "Then ride in the imperial garden."

Qi Changle blinked, a little surprised.

"This……"

Zhong Liyu didn't care, she smiled a little: "Although there is no grass in the imperial palace, it's such a big place, it's enough for you to ride a horse for several laps."

Qi Changle couldn't help but laugh at her statement.

"Your Majesty, if you do this, you will spoil your concubines, and your concubines will never dare."

Zhong Liyu raised his eyebrows.

"What's wrong with that?"

"I pamper you, you just need to bear it."

The author has something to say: Although Mr. Gang arrived late, it is still a familiar taste
