Chapter 222: Promotion Again
Chapter 222: Promotion Again
Xianxian lowered her head and stared at her Buddhist beads and answered softly.
"I entered the palace with Lady Wen, and we live together in Ziming Palace. I don't think Lady Wen is a bad person."
The Queen Mother had expected such an answer, but she couldn't help but shake her head.
"Is that why?"
The Queen Mother raised her teacup and took a sip. "The women in the palace are the best at acting. Today they can call you their sister, but tomorrow they can stab you in the back."
"You believe her, but she may not believe you, understand?"
But Xianxian was exceptionally determined.
"I believe in Lady Wen."
"That's all."
The Queen Mother put down the teacup and smiled helplessly, "As time goes by, you will understand. Go and have a rest with Madam. You were frightened today."
"I retire."
When Xianxian went downstairs and the nanny came back after making arrangements, she saw the empress dowager rubbing her temples.
"Why didn't the Queen Mother tell someone to wash you and let you rest? It's getting late."
The nanny had followed the empress dowager for many years and knew that her daily routine was always regular.
After going through so many things today, the Queen Mother must be tired.
But the Queen Mother's expression was filled with reminiscence.
"I thought of many things from the past and couldn't sleep for a while."
"Shen Zhiyi is just like me back then. He didn't want to fight for anything, but fate made him do so."
"The emperor seems to like her very much, but he is very much like the previous emperor. He seems affectionate but is actually heartless. Will she fall for him?"
The nanny has been with the empress dowager for so many years, so she naturally knows all about her past.
She looked at the Queen Mother with a bitter look on her face and said, "Your Majesty, some things have already passed. Your Majesty is not the late Emperor after all. I don't think Concubine Yi has any extra thoughts."
"It's over..."
There was sadness in the Queen Mother's eyes at this moment.
"It is indeed in the past, but I still feel empty inside. Did I do something wrong back then?"
It was a complex emotion, mixed with guilt, love and hate.
“I did nothing wrong!”
The nanny said with a firm look, "Your Majesty, don't let yourself be trapped in the past. You are the Queen Mother now, and everything is correct."
"Alas, maybe it's because I'm old. I'm tired and want to rest."
"I will arrange for the Queen Mother to wash up right away."
I thought I could have a good sleep tonight, but I never expected that someone would climb over the wall and enter like a hooligan.
Xianxian was sleeping soundly, but was woken up by a burst of noise.
Before she could see clearly after opening her eyes, her mouth was covered.
She opened her eyes wide and tried to struggle, but the other party was too strong and didn't give her a chance.
When her pajamas were undone, her slender hands were pressed on her head and her little mouth was covered so she couldn't speak.
She felt the other person kissing her skin and could only twist her waist helplessly.
The moonlight fell dimly into the house, and the man's face could not be seen because he was facing away from the moonlight.
But the general outline can still be seen. Xianxian already knows who the other person is, but the play still has to be completed.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Finally, when Xianxian was so anxious that she was about to cry, the man came forward, took her earlobe in his mouth, and sucked it gently in an ambiguous manner.
"Does Zhizhi miss me?"
There was shock in Xianxian's eyes. Perhaps she didn't expect that the king of a country would be so shameless as to climb into bed so late at night.
She struggled slightly, causing Chang Liu's lower abdomen to tighten and his whole body to feel hot.
"My dear Zhizhi, your waist is so soft. I can't bear it any longer."
After saying this, Chang Liu tore off Xianxian's last bit of defense and also released the hand that was covering Xianxian.
He leaned over and gave her a kiss.
The tingling sensation all over her body made Xianxian moan softly.
"Your Majesty, this is the Cining Palace."
But these words did not stop the man's actions. His big hands restrained her slender waist, and his lips left some marks on her delicate body.
Xianxian was worried that the palace servants outside would hear her, so she could only hold on to the quilt tightly with both hands to force herself not to make any extra noise.
"Hmm."
But when Chang Liu took a step further, she still let out a soft moan.
"Jieyu Yi, are you awake? Do you need me to come in and serve you?"
The palace maid on night watch asked outside.
But Chang Liu was even more mischievous inside. Her slender body trembled slightly and she bit her lower lip. Finally, she replied with a trembling voice.
"No, you've been tired from guarding the door at night. Go down and rest early. There's no need to keep guarding outside the door."
The maid hesitated.
"Yes, I will leave first."
After making sure that the palace maids outside had left, Xianxian gritted her teeth and looked at Chang Liu.
"Your Majesty, aren't you afraid that the Queen Mother will find out? How dare you and I have such a secret affair in the Cining Palace."
Chang Liu had a satisfied look on his face and his voice was filled with lust.
"Good Zhizhi, I just miss you, mother won't know."
"Um……"
Sometimes Xianxian really feels that Chang Liu is like a perpetual motion machine, from last night to today and then to now.
How irresistible is he?
But Xianxian was also aroused and she moaned as he moved.
Probably because we were running low on energy, we didn't make a fuss for too long tonight.
Chang Liu hugged Xianxian contentedly, but when Xianxian moved slightly, his big hand began to wander restlessly again.
"Zhizhi, stop making a fuss. This is in the Cining Palace."
It really made Xianxian laugh.
She touched Chang Liu's slender abdomen.
The emperor also had to learn the six arts of a gentleman, and Chang Liu even developed a good figure.
Xianxian's voice was charming and affectionate, "Your Majesty knew that I was in the Cining Palace."
Chang Liu had some strange movements, but he still suppressed his desire.
"Because Zhizhi is in Cining Palace, I came to Cining Palace to look for Zhizhi."
"Zhizhi has been wronged today. I will ask my mother to promote you to Zhaoyi tomorrow."
Xianxian was held tightly in Chang Liu's arms. She was feeling sleepy after having just finished exercising.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Looking at the woman's thick eyelashes, which cast a shadow, Chang Liu felt even softer for some reason.
He fell asleep contentedly until Fu Shun outside the window gently knocked on the window. Chang Liu woke up and subconsciously looked at Xianxian.
Seeing that she was sleeping soundly and not wanting to disturb her, Chang Liu got up and left on tiptoe.
Chang Liu didn't see it, but as soon as he left, Xianxian on the bed opened her eyes.
The next day, Xianxian was promoted to the third-rank Zhaoyi, which even shocked Concubine Zheng.
"She has only been in the palace for three days, but she is so powerful? She will soon be able to become the head of a palace."
"I heard that it was the decision of His Majesty and the Queen Mother, because the criminal Zhou used a night cat to set up a trap, which frightened Concubine Yi. The promotion was to make up for the grievances that Concubine Yi suffered."
"is it?"
Concubine Zheng looked a little absent-minded, and even seemed distracted when dining with the Second Prince.
When Xianxian returned to Ziming Palace, she paid her respects to Concubine Zheng first. There was nothing wrong with her rules.
Concubine Zheng re-examined Xianxian, but she did not make it too difficult for her.
"Master, Lady Wen is here."
"Let her in."
Xianxian was sitting quietly at the top drinking tea. Wen Changwan was slightly stunned and bowed.
"I have met Consort Yi."
"Get up."
"You look much better."
