Emperor Zhengxing's burning eyes made Wang Xiang feel scared.
Ordinarily, her aunt De Fei married Emperor Zhengxing, so Emperor Zhengxing was also her uncle, but the way he looked at her didn't look like an elder looking at a junior, but like... a man looking at a woman.
"Are you Wang Xiang, the third girl of Wang Yushan's family?" He dismissed everyone, leaving only Zhang Youde to wait on him. Emperor Zhengxing smiled and pursed his lips and walked forward. He puffed up his chest unconsciously, trying hard to think He looks kind and young.
"Your Majesty, this is my servant." While kneeling on the ground to answer, Wang Xiang seemed to feel that her inner clothes were soaked with cold sweat.
Emperor Zhengxing looked at her as if no one else was around. From her pretty face with baby fat that had not faded, to her slender lotus feet that could not be covered by the messy skirt, she was so white, so tender, so cute, and seemed to be covered with The alluring water mist and her delicate demeanor made him feel itchy and unbearable. He just wanted to swallow her whole body, including her skin and bones. He took a deep breath, nodded and praised: " Wang Aiqing really raised a good daughter."
Wang Xiang hurriedly bowed his head and thanked him: "Thank you for your compliment, Your Majesty. I am ashamed that I cannot deserve it."
Emperor Zhengxing narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Don't you dare to take it? How can you not take it? If I say you can take it, you can take it; if you can't take it, then no one in the Sixth Palace can take it."
This is heartbreaking!
Wang Xiang forced out a smile, but her heart was filled with unspeakable bitterness. If His Majesty's words spread today, she might be stabbed through the heart by thousands of arrows whenever she walks in the palace!
But the predicament in front of her was to be solved by her majesty, so Wang Xiang's eyes turned red, and she choked with sobs: "Slave, I accidentally hurt your majesty today. It's true, it's true. yes……"
As soon as Wang Xiang's tears fell from his eyes, he immediately made a beautiful appearance of crying with his heart in his arms. It looked like he almost fainted from crying.
Seeing this, Emperor Zhengxing's heart almost broke.
"It's not in the way, it's not in the way, you must be careless. Get up quickly, you are young, don't break your body from kneeling." Emperor Zhengxing muttered kindly, and actually stretched out his hands to help Wang Xiang up. .
Wang Xiang's expression became weaker and weaker, Liu Fufeng looked pitiful, and he did not forget to plead with Emperor Zhengxing in a tearful voice: "I would like to thank your Majesty for your love, but your Majesty, could you not tell Concubine De about this matter..."
"Little girl, are you afraid of being punished?" Seeing her pitiful and cute appearance, like a kitten, Emperor Zhengxing felt more and more pity for her.
Wang Xiang nodded with tears in his eyes.
"Don't worry, little girl." As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Zhengxing couldn't help but patted Wang Xiang's rosy face.
Although he felt a little disgusted, Wang Xiang felt relieved. She accidentally injured His Majesty, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that she was taken out and beaten to death with dozens of boards. But she didn't want to die, why should she die?
She has to live.
Everything in this world comes with a price. So she took advantage of His Majesty's good impression of her and her tender face to get His Majesty to forgive her and promise to hide it for her - she simply earned it.
But she didn't know that the eldest prince was hiding in the rockery cave in the imperial garden at the moment, seeing everything clearly with a dark expression.
After everyone left the imperial garden, the eldest prince slowly walked out of the cave.
Seeing how lonely he was, Xiao Jiuzi became indignant: "Your Highness, that girl Xiang Ji is really capable! She actually charmed His Majesty!"
The spring breeze on Emperor Zhengxing's face and the admiration in his eyes can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye.
The eldest prince's face was as dark as water, and his voice was lazy and indifferent: "Don't talk nonsense. There is nothing she can do." If he really showed a strong appearance of one who would rather die than surrender, Wang Xiang would be carried out at this moment. corpse.
In the palace, if you don't learn to cater to others, if you don't learn to flatter, and only retain your pride, such people will die the fastest.
Seeing that he was weak and frightened, Xiao Jiuzi felt distressed and said: "Your Highness, I think you don't look good..."
The eldest prince coughed twice and forced a smile: "Stop talking. I'm fine, fine."
All the mung bean cakes were smashed and he had experienced so many things. When Wang Xiang stumbled back to Yongchun Palace, he was completely lost.
What she didn't know was that before she returned to Yongchun Palace, Zhang Youde, the eunuch beside Emperor Zhengxing, had already gone to Chaohui Hall of Yongchun Palace.
In the Chaohui Hall, Concubine De held the hand of the lotus and looked at the more than 20 boxes of decorative silks and satins that Zhang Youde had just sent. She couldn't tell what it felt like.
Concubine De picked up a plate of jade pendants and sneered at this comment: "This is a set of Hetian jade pendants of the twelve zodiac signs. It is a unique treasure in your majesty's treasury. Qingyao always clamored for this in the past, but your majesty was not willing to give it!"
Lianpeng opened her mouth, but still didn't dare to answer.
Concubine De threw away the plate of jade pendants, picked up a necklace of colorful gemstones again, and sneered softly: "This necklace is made up of a total of 108 gemstones. Gemstones are not rare in the palace, but this one is rare. Each gemstone is different in color, especially the golden-green 'cat's eye', which is bigger than the pair of cat's eye earrings worn by Queen Zhuang Xi!"
"This little bitch! She knows how to seduce His Majesty at such a young age!" Lian Peng finally couldn't help spitting and Xingzi cursed, his eyes full of resentment.
Although these treasures were sent to Chaohui Palace, Zhang Youde smiled and named them as gifts to Concubine De's nephew Wang Xiang.
Who is Zhang Youde? That is the old man who has served His Majesty all the way till now! In His Majesty's heart, he is probably more reliable than any concubine in the palace!
If people dare to directly say that Wang Xiang is the niece of Concubine De, it means that His Majesty also recognizes Wang Xiang's status - it seems that this time, His Majesty is really attracted to her.
Concubine De looked at them one by one, feeling sad for a long time, but in the end she could only sigh deeply: "Dedicating her to His Majesty was originally our plan. We just let her go one step ahead."
"Those little hooves are nothing! They're just a filthy dancing girl! Even if there is a plan by the empress, it's not because of her!" Lian Peng believes that the initiative in this matter should be in the hands of Concubine De. , instead of letting Wang Xiang do whatever he wants, not to mention that she ran out secretly this time.
"But she did it beautifully, didn't she?" Chen Xiurong was already showing signs of falling out of favor. Concubine De only hoped to take this opportunity to win His Majesty's favor to Yongchun Palace.
The reason why she gave Wang Xiang the name "Xiang Ji" was because she wanted Wang Xiang to be reduced to the lowest rank of dancing concubines. In this way, even if His Majesty favored her, he would not give her too high a status.
There are rules in the palace, and concubines with low status cannot raise children personally. So if Wang Xiang gives birth to a son in the future, she can directly snatch him and raise him under his knees.
Then she will have a son. In the palace, if she has a son, she will have a way out, and she will not be forced into the corner by Sun Guifei!
Lianpeng couldn't bear the sadness of her master, so she comforted her softly: "Empress, Your Majesty still has you in his heart. He is just greedy for novelty. Look, Chen Xiurong is so favored..."
Concubine De smiled sadly.
