Xia Tong thought this man was really shameless. How could he have the confidence to put on airs in front of Jiang Bilan at that time?

He was obviously still squid under his lips, but now he pretended to be a young man. Of course, he was young. As far as the average lifespan of ancient people was concerned, he was definitely not as good as a "little boy".

Of course, considering that the emperors all thought they were long and happy, it would be nice to say that he was a young boy.

The fresh and fragrant chestnuts had exploded under the scorching charcoal fire. Xia Tong quickly held the tongs, but the tongs were close to the stove for a long time and the oven was so hot that they quickly shrank their hands as soon as they were put on.

"Look, I'm going to be a mother, and I'm still reckless!" Liu Zhang said angrily, grabbed her hand and blew it carefully, then put it in his mouth and sucked it lightly.

A wet warmth spread from his fingertips. Xia Tong felt the atmosphere at this moment was very ambiguous, and his face couldn't help but flushed slightly, "I'm not hurt, Your Majesty, don't worry."

Liu Zhang probably felt that it was against the usual steel straight man's design, so he let go of his hand awkwardly.

After Xia Tong calmed down the deer's heartbeat, he heard a few eunuchs come in and ask them to dig out the chestnuts buried in the fire.

Just as he was eating sweetly, the emperor took advantage of the situation to snatch two from her arms.

Xia Tong opened her cute big eyes.

Liu Zhang said with great sarcasm: "It is appropriate to have good things to respect me."

Xia Tong:...

It's such a fool to think that I was so moved just now.

Fortunately, there are so many raw chestnuts. An Ruhai, who was in charge of the procurement, also gave her an additional ten kilograms in addition to taking care of the expenses of the imperial kitchen.

The emperor did not have it - maybe because he never liked these snacks all day long, An Ruhai dared not do what he did.

I didn't know that the emperor didn't love what he had baked, but only what he had stolen from others. As expected, men have a nature of invasion. Considering that the emperor is a little pitiful person who does not love his father and his mother, Xia Tong will not care about him anymore.

After a beautiful meal of nuts rich in fat, Xia Tong called Mung Bean to cleanse her hands. Fang Xianxian asked the emperor: "There is still a case of urging the love medicine. What will Your Majesty plan to deal with it?"

Liu Zhang's eyes were deep, "What do you want me to do?"

Xia Tong would not be so stupid as to speak in this matter. Not to mention that King Linjiang is the heart of Queen Mother Jiang, she has no need to offend the Queen Mother; Besides, the unlucky ones are now Princess Wei and Feng Yuzhen.

She had no effect anyway - thanks to Chang Qing's clever ears and eyes, he saw through the Princess Wei's plan in time, and even made a fuss for her. Now she is completely clean, it depends on how Princess Wei gets out of her.

Liu Zhang looked at her gently, "Why are you using Evergreen?"

Not only did Xia Tong have enough words to praise him when he mentioned him. At that time, An Ruhai said that he had just picked it up, but unexpectedly, he had a keen eye and gave her a big support. Xia Tong had to sigh again about his good luck.

However, although she admired Chang Qing, she was not as close to Ping Gu and others as she was - it had nothing to do with the pockmark on his face, but this person was too deep, as if she had hidden countless secrets.

Xia Tong, a straight rectal, naturally understands incompetence.

Seeing her happy face, Liu Zhang gave up his original idea, "Since it's good, then you can continue to use it."

With him watching it himself, I don’t think there will be any extra trouble.

Jiang Bilan searched all over the palace. Although Feng Yin was found, she was not as good as Xia Tong. It was a pity.

As for Wei's self-directed and acted by others, now that time has changed, Jiang Bilan has no way to verify it - she even felt that Wei had been coveting Feng Yin for a long time. Didn't she urge the King of Linjiang to compete for the crown prince before? Maybe Wei had long been looking forward to becoming the queen's dream.

Thinking that she had believed this person wrongly and said many heart-to-heart words to her, Jiang Bilan regretted it and decided to stay away from Wei.

Because both sides were relatives, Empress Dowager Jiang naturally wanted to turn big things into small things, and tried hard to get along with each other. First, she accused Feng Yuzhen of not trying to use the incense to compete for favor, but before she could succeed, she only stopped her from doing anything. This was because of the face of King Linjiang. Otherwise, if it was severely punished, she was afraid that Liu Fang would go to help her take the blame without hesitation. Empress Dowager Jiang only hated herself for giving birth to a stupid son, and just a woman fascinated him, and she wanted to achieve hegemony.

As for the strangeness of the phoenix seal, Empress Dowager Jiang took it upon her, saying that Wei had no intention of bringing out the phoenix seal, but in fact he was wronged - as for why the golden seal ran into Wei's sleeve for no reason, he had to coax the fool.

Although Empress Dowager Jiang was old and her previous shrewdness had not yet completely subsided, it was naturally obvious that Wei wanted to destroy Xia Tong and Feng Yuzhen in one fell swoop, but the method was too stupid and he was rebelled against the generals.

Unexpectedly, Wei continued to cause trouble recklessly. Empress Dowager Jiang drove her out of the palace and said that King Linjiang had his own mother to take care of him, so she would just stay in the inn.

Wei was really angry and said that the mother-in-law in the world were the same. They only knew how to protect their shortcomings, and now they were lying on their adulterers and turned their wives away, and drove her, the wife out of the house. How could such a ridiculous thing be like this in the world?

She was worried that Liu Fang and Feng Yuzhen were left alone in the palace. Not to mention being confined, a man’s lustful heart could be blocked by a wall?

The more Wei thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. When he asked Jiang Bilan to help him talk to the queen mother, Jiang Bilan not only refused, but also sent someone to scold her. Although Feng Yin finally found her, Empress Dowager Jiang thought that her niece was not well kept, so she took it back.

In the future, if Jiang Bilan wants to use the seal, she has to go to the Empress Dowager's harem to invite him. Although Jiang Bilan has her own imperial concubine seal, daily trivial matters, and monthly payments are not a big deal, the grand ceremony during the New Year, including the spring plowing ceremony and silkworm-friendly gifts every year, will have to use the queen's phoenix seal.

This clearly means that her authority is transferred downward.

Jiang Bilan hated that Princess Wei was looking for trouble if she had nothing to do. She couldn't help her to compete for favor, but now she has made her a laughing stock in the palace. Jiang Bilan was fine if she didn't beat Wei, so why would she still help her?

Wei could not do so, so he had to swallow his anger for the time being and secretly hated these women. Even if Feng Yuzhen was still in a state of confinement, he could not get in. Concubine Xia Jie was really a disaster. If she had not been abandoned, she would have been broken into her hands sooner or later.

In Guanju Palace, a group of people sat together on the stove to keep warm.

Li Mi looked at Xia Tong's appearance as if she was fine, and she really admired her. She had only thought that this person was so lucky that she was strangely lucky, but now she still seems to be quite capable. Princess Wei wanted to do something but failed to make up for her, so she lost herself. I have to say that Xia Tong won a great victory in this battle.

I am sorry for Feng Yuzhen who suffered an undesired disaster and saw whether she could be released at the end of the year.

Li Mi sighed: "What aphrodisiac fragrance? I don't believe that Meiren Feng would do that."

She wasn't kind to help Feng Yuzhen speak, but Feng Yuzhen's beauty is obvious to all. If even she needs to rely on incense to compete for favor, how should other women live?

Xia Tong smiled and refused to comment. Although Feng's family is beautiful, the emperor is a stubborn stone made of iron. How can he succeed without some means?

Until now, she doesn't understand how she succeeded in the strategy. Maybe she is really lucky?

He skillfully peeled a chestnut and put it in his mouth. Xia Tong said, "Isn't it that the King of Linjiang helped her take the blame? Feng Yuzhen is also blessed."

If not, wouldn’t it be as simple as being confined?

Li Mi sighed: "I didn't expect that King Linjiang was a seed of infatuation. No wonder he was a brother of His Majesty, and he was exactly the same as his Majesty."

This is a bit of a praising Xia Tong - Li Mi looked at the chestnuts in her hand and was very envious. Although she had planted some space, it was ripened, and it was far less sweet than this wild small chestnut.

I heard that it was a tribute from a small country in the Western Regions. It only produced dozens of kilograms a year, and the emperor gave it to Guanju Palace.

Xia Tong clearly saw Li Mi's expression, but she didn't say anything to share, and ate alone with relish.

Li Mi was so depressed, thinking that this person was so stingy. She didn't know how to give her so much food she had given her before.

Of course, she also got a lot of things from Xia Tong, but they were all dead items such as pearls and gems - she was just greedy for these fragrant roasted chestnuts!

Wang Jingyi was not very interested in eating. Her spiritual spring water can not only cure diseases, but also relieve hunger. She drinks a little every day and can even eat less food.

She whispered: "The King of Linjiang still wants to go to Yufu Palace to see Sister Feng. He was scolded by the Empress Dowager and said that his illness had not been cured and he was still thinking about these things..."

Xia Tong smiled and said, "Fortunately, Princess Wei didn't know about this, otherwise she would be so angry that she vomited blood."

She suddenly had a wonderful idea, why can't the Princess Wei know? With the Princess Wei's temper, she will definitely be furious. She was neglected, but her husband was still in love with the Feng surnamed Feng and hooked up - how exciting this is for her!

Xia Tong was immersed in this idea and the more he thought about it, the more he felt it was feasible.

When Wang Jingyi called her, she woke up, "What did you say?"

Wang Jingyi said helplessly: "Sister, I'm asking you why you didn't ask the phoenix seal from the empress dowager? With Your Majesty's trust in you, as long as you go and talk, Your Majesty will definitely agree."

What's more, the emperor had intended to ask Xia Tong and Concubine De Xian and others to hold a Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet together. It can be seen that Xia Tong had already planned to assist in the Six Palaces. Now that Jiang Bilan has lost power, isn't it an opportunity?

Of course, Wang Jingyi was not a good intention. She wanted to find something for Xia Tong, so she naturally had no time to bother the emperor in the future, and she could take advantage of the situation.

I thought Xia Tong would praise her very much, but the other party's reaction was plain, "What did I do with that effort? In this cold weather, writing is difficult and I also assisted in the Six Palaces. I don't care about anyone who likes to do such a chore."

Wang Jingyi:...

It is really incredible that such a woman with no ambition can become the emperor's favorite concubine.

She was too lazy to sit down again, so she pulled Li Mi and stood up, "It's not too early, Sister Li and I will go back first, Sister Xia, you should take a rest sooner."

Li Mi was still looking at the roasted chestnuts, she didn't even taste any of them...

So sad.

After seeing off two rare guests, Xia Tong stretched her body comfortably. Recently, she ate and slept and ate. She was almost lazy and became a pig. It would be nice if someone came to walk around and talk.

However, these two are not simple. In name, they are her competitors. Xia Tong always deliberately chose to meet them when the emperor is away, and sent them away before the emperor arrives, so as not to have the opportunity to take advantage of them - who hasn't had some tricks? Xia Tong has it too.

She doesn't harm others, but she can't be used by others. It's not easy to be a sucker.

Just as I was about to close the hall door and have a good sleep, I didn't expect that beside the cold brass door, a pair of black and white eyes timidly poked out.

Xia Tong recognized Xiao Douding in front of him, Liu Yun, the only son of Princess Wei. She was born with a round head and brain, and her hands and feet were like lotus root nodes, and she was chubby and very cute.

He staggered into the door, as if attracted by the scent of roasted chestnuts.

Xia Tong couldn't help laughing at the cute little step. She couldn't walk well and actually learned to beg for food. She didn't know how Princess Wei taught her children.

Just as he was about to come forward to pick him up, Chunlan saw it in time and rushed over, "Empress, you are pregnant, be careful!"

He personally picked up the little baby and hugged it in his arms - Chunlan was used to doing rough work after all, so the weight was no problem.

Qiu Ju frowned and said, "Even if the Princess Wei can't control her husband, why can't she even control her children? It's still swaying outside in the cold weather."

Chunlan sighed: "Isn't it just that I hope to use this child to plead for her? The Empress Dowager will always remember her benefits and forgive her past mistakes for her son."

He sighed to Qiuju again, "What a child? We hate Wei, why should we take our anger on the child? Besides, the empress likes him very much."

Xia Tong does like children. Since childhood, she has been hoping for a younger brother who will smile softly and make her happy. However, there are only two older brothers above, one is a big man who only smiles foolishly all day long, and the other is as dull as a bell.

Now that the dream is about to come true, Xia Tong thinks of the flesh and blood in her belly, she will inevitably empathize with Liu Yun.

Besides, Liu Yun is indeed cute. His appearance inherits the advantages of King Linjiang and Princess Wei. His eyes as thin as water, a small mouth as tender and red as petals, and a round and short nose adds a bit of childishness to him.

Xia Tong couldn't help poking his tender tofu-like little face and said in surprise: "It's so slippery!"

Chunlan was speechless when she looked at her appearance, "Empress, shouldn't we ask where he came from?"

A word reminded Xia Tong and asked Qiuju to wander outside the door, but she didn't even see a single figure.
