Chapter 31

When the eunuch left, the queen said in a chat: "Your Majesty has accepted a beautiful folk beauty and wants to give her a beauty. Seeing that she is beautiful and dignified, my Majesty loves her, I took the initiative to ask you to be a concubine. I don't know what your Majesty is." There are many people in the palace who have received the kindness of the rain and dew, and there are sixteen people who can be enthroned. However, except for the queen and a noble concubine, only the concubines in the concubines were enthroned, and the rest were all below the concubine level. Hua Nongying had escaped from the slave and was promoted to be a concubine by the queen. It was a great gift.

The folk beauty... Chen Ning thought about it and heard the queen say, "Speaking of this, I heard that this Hua family was originally a slave to the Li family?"

Sure enough, the queen also knew about the emperor's contempt for a tour. "When I returned to the emperor's words, Hua was the second daughter of General Hua, who was exiled to Yunzhou as an official prostitute. Fortunately, he was pure and innocent. Lord You transferred her to Li's house. When the civilian woman saw that she was pitiful, she put it in the room to treat her with courtesy."

"General Hua..." The queen frowned, "Didn't General Hua be executed for rebellion?"

Chen Ning was silent for a moment and said, "The civilian woman doesn't know." She didn't understand why the queen called her into the palace again and again, and first responded to the changes.

The emperor issued a court to approve some memorials in the imperial study room, and returned to the Antai Hall of Qiankun Palace to cultivate one's character. The eunuch beside the queen gave the imperial edict drafted by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. He glanced at the small note and smiled, and put it back on the silver plate. "According to the Queen's wishes, I will modify it." After saying that, he was not in a hurry to let the eunuch retreat, but asked the queen about whereabouts today. When he heard that Meng Ya and all the concubines had heard Chen Ning talk about the battle in Yunzhou, he also became interested, "How did Mrs. Li say it, let me hear it."

Fortunately, the eunuch was clever and had a good memory. He recorded Chen Ning's secretary for 70 to 80 points and learned his tone for 70 to 80 points. The emperor leaned on the couch and listened with great interest. When he heard General Leng appear, he suddenly felt something strange. He raised his eyebrows and let the eunuch stop, "What is General Leng's appearance?"

"Huh?" the eunuch was shocked and said hurriedly, "Mrs. Li said it had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and it seemed to have a big nose with a wine tank." Only these horoscopes should be good.

Wanfu stood on one side and couldn't help but be surprised.

The wine tank has a big nose? General Leng has a big nose? The emperor subconsciously touched the straight bridge of his nose, which was quite funny. Since he couldn't look carefully, how could he know that General Leng has a big nose?

“Summary.”

The eunuch looked at the emperor sideways and saw that Long Yan was not displeased, so he continued to talk carefully.

Until Chen Ning was unconscious, the emperor rubbed the jade in his hand and thoughts were unpredictable.

Apart from his different appearances to General Leng, the woman praised him as if he had nothing in the sky and was like a heavenly soldier descending to earth. The emperor chuckled, it was really strange.

"Where is Li's place now?"

"The Empress kept Mrs. Li to speak, and she is still in Zhaohua Palace at this moment."

"Bring her here."

After a cup of tea, Chen Ning was taken outside the gate of Antai Hall. The eunuch went in and informed her, and then led her into the high threshold again.

Qiankun Palace is the place where the emperor rests, and it seems much more casual than Kaiming Palace. There are many beautiful maids in the hall, Chen Ning passed through the first diamond-carved dragon-falling cover, the fragrance of the treasure tripod is filled with. The front is the exquisite red sandalwood gauze, and there is a treasure that Dong Yuheng usually likes to play with. The eunuch turned a corner and sat on the five-screen arhat couch, and the master knelt down respectfully, "Report to the Master, the Li family in Yunzhou to meet him."

"The civilian woman bowed to Your Majesty, long live my emperor." Chen Ning hated him so much that he knelt down at any time.

"Flat."

Chen Ning stood up and looked up slightly at the lazy figure on the couch. The emperor who went down to court changed into a regular dress, with long black hair spreading on his chest, and only a bun with a jade crown on his head. He wore a robe with a gold-inlaid gold-patterned dragon brocade to highlight the supreme aura of looking down at all. Without bead curtains covering his face, his handsome and young face almost makes people dare not look directly at him.

But why does it seem like it is vaguely familiar? Chen Ning felt uneasy and immediately comforted himself, but it was just a sense of vision.

The emperor looked at her and smiled, "I heard from Prince Cheng that you are very good at chess. I have nothing to do today, so I will meet you for a while."

"...Your Majesty is too good." If you can't afford to lose, you can't afford to lose. Chen Ning aimed at the white jade chessboard placed on the small and medium-sized table in his bed and secretly complained.

It is never easy to just play chess with the emperor. First of all, you can't sit on the couch with him.

The great palace maid Lianyan brought her a soft-cushioned purple couch drum pier to the lower head, so Chen Ning had to sit upright and stretched his neck to play chess with him.

Chen Ning took action to play the chess. When the emperor saw his empty slender and plain hand swam quickly among the white jade chess pieces, a strange light flashed in his eyes.

Chen Ning moved the chess piece, thinking quickly in his heart whether to give up or not?

She remembered somewhere to watch a little eunuch playing chess with Cixi, saying only one word "Kill the horse of the Old Buddha", and then died. Faced with this man who had been emperor for more than ten years, she won twice before, maybe he thought it was new, but if he wins again, would he be angry? But he clearly knew her chess skills. If she lets her chess lose, would he be angry if he sees it?

It is true that being with the king is like being with a tiger.

Chen Ning's brows became tighter and tighter.

"Li, don't let me lose my happiness." As if seeing through what she was thinking, Dong Yuheng slowly started the game.

Chen Ning looked up and met the inexplicably terrifying dark eyes. His mind suddenly became clear and his eyebrows were spreading. "The civilian woman obeyed the order."

She smiled and had a scheming in her heart. She lowered her head on the chessboard and moved her head quickly.

Dong Yuheng curled his lips, raised his long arms, and took off the character "Fan".

The two started the game casually, and the emperor asked casually: "What is the surname of my grandmother?"

Chen Ning paused, "Return to Your Majesty, your surname is 'Chen'."

"Can you have a name?" Many civilian women do not name names.

"One word 'Ning'." Chen Ning thought that there was no need to lie about these things, and he must have sent someone to investigate them. But she forgot that the name of a woman at this time could not be told to others at will, especially those who had married. Even when facing the Supreme Lord of Nine Five, she should show some hesitation.

The emperor did send someone to check her life. Li Ziqi arranged her life experience perfectly. Even the name was the name embroidered on the brocade handkerchief that the old farmer held in his hand when he picked her up. Dong Yuheng asked knowingly: "Is this one taken by your adoptive father?"

"Where did my father know how to read? I heard from him that this was the name embroidered on a brocade handkerchief that the civilian woman had in her hand."

"Have you ever thought about finding your biological parents?"

Chen Ning couldn't help but smile bitterly. She thought, but she just couldn't go back. There was a bitterness in her words, "Everything will go with the flow."

Lianyan was surprised. Why did this Li family woman say such a big thing so lightly?

However, the emperor heard her helplessness and lowered his eyes to hide the faint light.

When the chess reached the middle game, the two of them were fully focused, and smoke from the chessboard rose everywhere. In the huge hall, except for the chess pieces moving, they were silent.

Suddenly there was a sound of empty stomach. Chen Ning didn't pay attention, and Dong Yuheng didn't pay attention, but Wanfu and the palace maids discovered it.

A palace maid frowned quietly, and this vulgar civilian woman was indecent.

After a moment, Chen Ning was hungry again. He covered his stomach and subconsciously looked for food. Unexpectedly, he raised his eyes and met Dong Yuheng's smile-like expression. He was embarrassed for a moment, and his face turned red, "I... the civilian woman ate less in the morning." She paused, "Your Majesty, can the civilian woman ask for a cup of tea?" It would be good to fill her hunger.

Dong Yuheng glanced at her and asked Lianyan to have a cup of tea. Chen Ning didn't care about the precious royal tea and drank all the food in one breath.

Unexpectedly, after finishing drinking, there was another protest in my stomach. Chen Ning blushed with embarrassment. She secretly vowed that if she entered the palace one day, she would talk about it if she had been over in the morning!

"Look at you so hungry, is it because the official harsh breakfast?" Dong Yuheng looked at her cheeks that seemed to be about to burn, "Go and get some snacks."

"The civilian woman... has a big appetite." Chen Ning simply gave up.

Dong Yuheng raised his eyebrows, "It makes sense. If you eat something like the empresses, you can't shoot arrows with a bow."

Chen Ning had to smile foolishly.

There are always pastries in Qiankun Palace. After a while, Lianyan brought in a food box. When she opened it, she saw that it was full of exquisite snacks. Chen Ning was hungry and felt even sweeter and delicious.

"Please use it, Master." Lianyan knelt at Dong Yuheng's feet and smiled.

Dong Yuheng glanced at him, "I don't need it, I will give it to Mrs. Li."

Chen Ning knew it would be best not to eat it, but her stomach kept screaming and even more unreasonable. She had to thank her with a shy face, took a small peach bag, lowered her head, and ate it in her stomach.

Dong Yuheng leaned against the soft pillow, and couldn't help laughing when he looked at her like this. It was really not a lady from a noble family.

Chen Ning took another golden silk cake with a thick face and wiped her hands with a wet and hot handkerchief handed by the palace maid. Then she cleared her throat, "It's time for Your Majesty to make a decision."

"Is it full this time?" Dong Yuheng said lazily.

...But I put it in the bottom. Chen Ning was not stupid enough to tell the truth. He could only smile and touch his ears, "I'm full, thank Your Majesty for the snacks."

After the episode passed, Dong Yuheng carried his soldiers and moved his son.

Chen Ning quickly placed his mind on the chessboard.

Chen Ning still narrowly won in this game today.

The emperor looked at her meaningfully, but she just smiled foolishly.
