The Book of Troubled Times

Chapter 247 Spring Is Fading

The rain gurgled outside the window.

Big drops of rain hit the lake, making a splashing sound. The autumn wind brings a little humidity, and water splashes on the windowsill and on the face, adding a bit of mist and freshness to the atmosphere in the house.

A few strands of messy hair on the temples were blown by the wind and stuck to the face. Suzaku stretched out his hand and stroked it, and Zhao Changhe's heart jumped again.

Simple movements are full of charm.

What a person Suzaku was, the pounding sound of his accelerated heartbeat was as clear to her ears as playing a drum in front of her, and she finally couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Young thief."

Laughter broke the silence, as if a still frame suddenly started to flow. The rain continued to fall, the wind blew, and the little man whose heart was beating finally turned away and muttered: "Why are you a thief? Let's go with you all the way." , I have never even touched your hand..."

"You've really never touched it?"

Zhao Changhe then remembered that he accidentally shook his hand once in Jianhu City, but he was beaten, and he was never touched again.

"I haven't touched it." Zhao Changhe frowned and said, "Unless you touch it again, you can prove it."

"Hey." Suzaku raised his arm again: "Now that you know my identity, you should understand that you were wrong before. It is impossible for His Holiness to send a noble concubine to give you something to play with. It was just your own imagination from beginning to end. Before You are flirting with me with a shy pig face. I just tolerated not beating you just to trick you, but you still dare to tease you today? "

Zhao Changhe really didn't dare, but that wasn't the reason.

Regardless of why Lord Suzaku sent you here, I can do it too.

The problem is that the identity of the imperial concubine is not known, and the words "this palace" are even more intimidating. Putting aside all ethical perspectives, this is also a "married woman", which is really inappropriate.

Seeing his appearance, Zhuque smiled slightly and said slowly: "First time we meet... my name is Huangfu Qing."

Zhao Changhe did not answer these words, slumped his shoulders in frustration, and muttered: "It is better to continue wearing Zhuzhu. You said you were enduring it at that time, but I think you were the happiest at that time, and you are the opposite now. Wearing a mask.”

Huangfuqing narrowed his eyes slightly, suddenly laughed, and took a step forward.

The fragrant wind blew across his face, and the red lips were close at hand. Zhao Changhe subconsciously took a step back. At this moment, his mind felt that these lips were very similar to Suzaku, and the feeling of pressure was quite similar. Should he be said to be a direct subordinate...

Thoughts just flashed by, and Huangfu Qing took another step forward.

Soon he was pressed against the pillar behind him, unable to retreat.

Huangfu Qing came close to him, lightly traced his cheek with her fingers, then settled on his chin, raising it slightly. Then her fragrant lips came close to his ear, less than half an inch away, and she whispered softly: "If I don't wear a mask, then I will find a mask. Do you dare to accept it?"

"Hey, no, it's not..." Zhao Changhe suppressed his old face and said: "Empress, please..."

"Look, before they flirted with each other and wanted to push me against the wall and gnaw at me, now the sound of rain outside the window and the warmth in the room are so emotional, but they also say that they respect themselves." Huangfu said in a charming voice: "So... At this time, Dai Dai Who is the one wearing the mask?”

Zhao Changhe was stunned.

After a long while, he finally said with some difficulty: "That's different, this is a married life..."

"But I'm not."

Zhao Changhe was stunned again.

Huangfu said affectionately: "Do you know why the Wang family dared to show their disobedience? It is impossible to know this kind of thing without seeing it in the palace. No matter how much Tang Wanzhuang is respected, he will not know about it."

Zhao Changhe almost forgot what posture he was in now, and subconsciously asked: "What's going on?"

"Because the Xia Longyuan that everyone sees now is just a fake. He doesn't know anything at all. His martial arts is only at the third or fourth level of Xuan Guan. What went wrong with Xia Longyuan is just because he is not that person at all."

Zhao Changhe was stunned: "Is this okay?"

"Of course, Xia Longyuan doesn't want to govern the country at all. His mind is never in the world. How can he come out to court every now and then? It's impossible to waste time and energy. It's impossible for him to be the one."

"Then where is the real Xia Longyuan?"

"It's true that Xia Longyuan was injured...or maybe he wasn't injured, he was just in a state where he was secretly fighting with others and couldn't escape. I haven't confirmed the details yet. But what can be confirmed is that he must be fighting with others and unable to care about others at all. of."

"Then the so-called frequent stupid moves are also caused by fakes, because they don't know how to govern the country at all?"

"No, according to my observation, the fakes don't dare to issue any instructions without authorization. All chaos should be directed by the real Xia Longyuan. The fakes' 'retreat' is all receiving instructions from Xia Longyuan himself. I don't understand either. Why did Xia Longyuan have those strange instructions? He was almost causing the country to fall apart."

"...Could it be that you are too lazy to take care of it and want to destroy the country?"

"I don't know." Huangfuqing smiled slightly: "So why do you want to enter the palace? The more contact you have, the more detailed you can know."

"..."

"His Holiness threatened him with a fake identity and forced him to give me the position of concubine. We did it on purpose. Having this identity will make it easier for us to conduct investigations in the palace, and it will be easier for us to manage the influence of our relatives. This is probably a fake. The only royal order issued personally...not to mention anything else, the Wang family was furious because of this. In the early years before Xia Longyuan's rise, one of the agreements that received the strong support of the Wang family was to maintain the position of queen of the Wang family forever. The title of this noble concubine was. Tear it at the edge, almost tearing off your face.”

Zhao Changhe twitched the corner of his mouth.

A long time ago, I heard rumors that Xia Longyuan didn't take the illegitimate son of the Luo family back to the capital because the Queen's family was awesome. Now it seems that the rumor may not be without reason. Although Xia Longyuan didn't take the illegitimate son back home, it may not be because of this. There is always some point. in accordance with……

Speaking of which, this fake is really brave. Not only does this offend the Wang family, but the real Xia Longyuan behind it may not be willing to do it either, right?

Huangfuqing could see what Zhao Changhe was thinking and said with a smile: "Of course he also has Xiao Jiujiu... He has nothing, but he has some leverage by forming an alliance with our Sixiang Sect. Maybe he can get rid of the control of the real Xia Longyuan. If he really does it, An emperor? Who is willing to be a puppet for the rest of his life? "

Zhao Changhe was stunned for a long time, and finally said: "If you were younger, it would be an outline of the protagonist."

Huangfu Qing didn't understand this sentence and didn't care. He just asked leisurely: "You think...am I considered Xia Longyuan's concubine? Am I considered a married woman? Am I considered your little mother?"

Zhao Changhe swallowed his saliva and muttered: "If you say that, it doesn't seem to count."

All the previous confusions suddenly became clear, why such a proud young lady would become a concubine, and why Xia Longyuan would accept this concubine without any trouble. Originally, neither party could understand what they were thinking. When that Xia Longyuan is just a fake and both parties have other purposes, then everything makes sense.

And it is really impossible for Tang Wanzhuang and the others to know about this kind of thing. They don't dare to be as lawless as Suzaku and test for fakes. Then they will never get the real answer and can only guess that there is an inside story. There are some inside stories that I can't figure out even if I guess it.

But there is only one question: "According to your statement, Xia Longyuan has not actually lost control behind his back. How can he tolerate fakes to cause trouble... What if he goes to kill you?"

Huangfu smiled and continued to scratch his face with his fingers: "Do you feel sorry for me?"

Zhao Changhe held his face and said: "Don't make trouble, let's talk about business."

"I don't know what he thinks. I originally planned to run away, but there was still no movement..." As Suzaku herself, since she dared to test the fakes, of course she could also test the real ones when they were suspected of being seriously injured. She was confident of running away with her hands, but she didn't want to tell Zhao Changhe this. Instead, she deliberately asked with a smile: "Hey, tell me, if the real thing suddenly comes and asks the concubine to sleep with you, should I fulfill my obligations as a concubine..."

Zhao Changhe blurted out: "How dare you!"

"Hehe..." Huangfu's red lips came a little closer, almost touching the hair on Zhao Changhe's face: "Then... between you and me, who is wearing the mask now? "

Damn you...

After talking for a long time, you actually came up with this topic!

He finally gritted his teeth, put his arms around her waist, and bit into her viciously: "Let's have a pig-pig fight today!"

However, their bodies were almost touching each other, but this hug took away the air.

Huangfu Qing turned away very lightly, then pushed him behind the head, watching him stumble forward with a pig's mouth in his mouth, and smiled sweetly: "Go ahead and dream, little thief."

Zhao Changhe almost cried.

If Chi Chi is just a little witch who has just started, this one is a big witch who has already matured.

Playing like this can kill someone!
