When Li Jing woke up, her breath was filled with fragrance, but there was no familiar figure next to her. The empty palace was also lit with incense, lingering and covering the entire palace.
The empress didn't know where she had gone, but it was already bright at this time, and Li Jing didn't want to wake up. No one dared to disturb him except for urgent court matters.
The corners of Li Jing's mouth raised unnaturally. The empress rarely obeyed him last night and made him do many ridiculous things. However, she was not as embarrassed as before, but she always cooperated.
Now that it was dawn, Xu Shi couldn't hide his shame and left alone.
Li Jing felt comfortable in his heart and could not hide the smile on his face. However, after he got up from the bed, a maid still entered the palace to change his clothes and wash himself.
The maids were none other than the two sisters Xuan Jingtian and Miaochengtian.
"Where is Madam?"
The two sisters both looked pretty, but in fact they were already in their twenties. But at this moment, in front of Li Jing, they directly touched a small basin with their hands so that Li Jing could spit out the mouthwash.
Fortunately, Li Jing was already accustomed to this kind of service, and asked casually while wearing the clothes of the two sisters.
Tomorrow is the Queen's Conception Ceremony, and the Empress probably has nothing important to keep busy with today. She has no plans today, so she might as well spend some time with the ladies in the palace.
Xuan Jingtian and Miaochengtian were just stunned for a moment, then shook their heads.
"The madam has not spoken to the slaves. Your Majesty wants to see the madam. The slaves will go find her soon..."
Li Jing had just proclaimed himself emperor, and now the three women in the palace have not yet been named concubines. It is not surprising that they are all referred to as wives in the palace.
Li Jing thought for a while, the empress had her own arrangements, so she didn't need to interfere too much. In that case, just spend some time with Chi Meng and Bage.
So, after washing and tidying up in the empress's palace, Li Jing went to Chi Meng's place to have breakfast.
In early summer, although the sky is bright, it is only about seven or eight o'clock in the future.
When Li Jing went to look for Chi Meng, Chi Meng was still sleeping in.
Li Jing is in charge, and the empress is in charge of the harem, but more than 90% of the harem members are from the original Huanyinfang, and there are not so many rigid rules. And Li Jing is the new emperor, and there is no empress dowager above him. Therefore, in the palace, the daughters are absolutely free, and they are not called here every day like in the movies and TV dramas. Come and run over there.
After another exchange of martial arts with Bago, and after such a leisurely lunch, Li Jing took the time to meet with a few officials who were to be interviewed.
…………
At the end of the night, Li Jing accompanied Chi Meng and Bago to finish their dinner. He was planning to go to the front hall to deal with some memorials, but he saw Xuan Jingtian coming to invite him, saying that the empress had invited him there.
The pile of memorials was not an important matter. Li Jing thought it would be okay to hand them over to the prime ministers below for seduction. He also wanted to see what the empress wanted to see him, so he headed towards the empress' palace again.
When they arrived at the Empress's chamber, the lights were still shining like daylight, but Fanyin Tian took Xuan Jingtian and several maids out.
Li Jing was wearing yellow satin clothes and walked in with her hands behind her hands, a smile on her face.
"Madam, why are you looking for me..."
He stepped in and happened to see the bright white cheeks of the empress. At this moment, she lowered her head and held a piece of red silk in her hand, which she was groping gently.
Hearing Li Jing's slightly teasing voice, Empress Cai raised her head and rolled her eyes at him angrily.
"Now that you are the emperor, why are you becoming more dissolute..."
Li Jing chuckled, took a few steps forward, and looked at the red silk in the empress's hand, feeling a little curious.
Empress Que directly picked up the red silk and handed it to him.
I saw that the red silk was only the size of a square scarf, but a red bird was carefully sewn on it with gold threads. It was vivid but very delicate.
Li Jing was startled, took it with her hands, and looked at the empress.
"Did you embroider this yourself?"
The empress nodded, but her cheeks were a little red. She just nodded and pretended to be calm, and then made a calm sound.
"I was in the military camp before and saw that many soldiers had red silk scarves to ward off evil and protect them. Thinking that you are often away from home and have to lead troops on expeditions, I sewed one for you to wear with you."
Her tone was dull, as if she was just an ordinary red silk lady.
But Li Jing knew that the empress had never done such meticulous needlework. Although she was the master of Huanyinfang, she had never done anything like this. At most, she only studied music and other things. She has never done needlework as a daughter.
And the suzaku embroidery is so detailed, it can be seen that the empress put a lot of thought into it.
Li Jing held the red silk in her hand and said, "You and I still believe this kind of thing...how many people can hurt me today...".
But he also sat down next to the empress.
The empress's cheeks were a little red, but she smiled slightly when she saw Li Jing carefully putting the red silk into his arms like a treasure.
Li Jing took the empress's hands, the candlelight reflected on her hands, and the jade-white decoration seemed to be shining.
The empress usually couldn't tell, but now she dresses up as a daughter day and night. In this night candlelight, her skin is very white and smooth, her forehead is smooth and round, her face is beautiful and even, the overall shape is oval, but her chin is slightly Pointed, it has a bit of glamor in its atmospheric temperament.
The empress turned her head away from Li Jing's gaze, and the redness on her face also faded under restraint.
"The red silk is also given to Your Majesty. If Your Majesty has anything to do, you can handle it yourself. I still have something to do..."
Li Jing just kneaded the empress's catkins. Her hands were smooth and her fingers were extremely slender, which made her look quite pleasing to the eye.
In fact, Li Jing could understand the meaning of the red silk gift given to him by the empress before the ceremony. Neither of them could be said to be supporting each other. It was just the empress supporting him. Now the red silk is more like a promise made by the couple before they got married. Love token.
In other words, an ordinary wife’s expectation for her husband’s safety.
The difference with the Empress is that in her gentleness and beauty, there is also an indescribable charm, and she naturally exudes a style that no one can get enough of.
And because in the palace, the empress's round body outline and graceful lines could easily be stretched out by her thin clothes, Li Jing just glanced at her, and with such emotions, she became a little impulsive.
The empress's cheeks were slightly hot. She knew how powerful Li Jing was. She was also a martial arts practitioner, but her body became weak every time. Now she just pulled her hand out of Li Jing's palm slightly naughtily, and then Then he pushed Li Jing out of the palace.
"Who will accompany you to fool around! There are important things to do tomorrow!"
