Harem Reborn: Queen's Conspiracy

There was a sandalwood table in the middle of the cabin, with a tea set and a lamp on it. There were seats on three sides of the table, and there was a stack of books on the seat opposite, which was obviously where he sat.

"Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs." I nodded and smiled, "It's just that it's a bit hot. Does the prince want to imitate the ancient people who hung their heads from beams and used cones to stab their buttocks?"

"The queen is joking," the fifteenth king also followed in. The originally small cabin accommodated two people, but it became a bit cramped. He seemed to notice it, stepped back, stood outside, lifted the curtain, and let inside

A little more open

I just glanced at it briefly, then turned around and went out. He quickly backed away, probably in a hurry. The boat shook a little, and I was unsteady on my feet. I was swaying. I was about to scream, but I suppressed myself and stretched out my hand to try.

Grabbing something, he stretched out his arm, and I just happened to put my hand on his arm.

His arms are strong and strong, not at all ominous for a sickly scholar who can only hold books.

I looked up at him in surprise, only to see that his face was flushed. I thought to myself: After all, he is a person who can't hide his thoughts. Everything shows on his face, and he doesn't even know how to hide this embarrassment.

In order to make him less embarrassed, I smiled at him and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I'm really useless. I almost fell down. Seeing how clumsy I am, I'd better not bother Your Majesty."

He lowered his arms and lowered his head and said, "If your Majesty wants to go back, it will take some effort to walk from here. Should I take a boat back from Penglai Pond?"

I thought about it and realized that walking just now was quite tiring for me, who doesn’t often walk. So I said, “I’ll bother you, Your Majesty.”

"I don't dare. My dear, please sit down."

I was sitting next to the cabin door, while Fifteen Wang stood at the bow of the boat, holding up a long pole and holding it in the water. The hull moved slowly and the lotus leaves were densely packed. From time to time, I stretched out my hand to block the lotus leaves that were leaning towards me.

, he paddled very slowly, those branches, leaves and stems couldn’t hurt me, they were just an eyesore.

He smiled and said: "Your Majesty, you might as well go into the cabin and rest."

I shook my head: "The cabin is really stuffy. It's hard for you, my lord, to study in there for a long time."

He stopped talking, but walked more slowly, trying to help me avoid those lotus leaves. I held one hand on the side of the boat, and the other hand hung in the water. Occasionally, I fiddled with the green leaves of the clear water. Just by accident, I faced them.

The stems hit my bun. When I looked up, my hair was messy. I quickly turned around and entered the cabin, but there was no comb or mirror here. I could only twist it a few times symbolically, but I didn't know what to do.

"Can I help you?" he asked in a low voice outside.

I smiled helplessly and said, "I wish you had a comb and a mirror, otherwise how can you help me?"

He was silent for a moment and said: "It might not be good if the empress returns to the palace like this."

"What can you do?"

"This place is not far from my palace. Madam, would you like to wait here for a while?"

I thought for a moment and said, "Then there is Prince Lao."

He docked the boat and went to the shore. I had to wait in the cabin. I was bored, so I opened a few books beside me. They were nothing more than "Zuo Zhuan" and "Historical Records". But as soon as I opened it, I ate it.

I was surprised to see that there were comments written by him between the lines. I took a closer look and was even more surprised. I didn’t expect that the fifteen kings looked honest on the outside, but these comments were the essence. Not only were they unique in their opinions, they were also in one sentence.

in, the diction is sharp but does not lose the kingly demeanor.

I put down the book and frowned in thought. It seems that this fifteenth king is not really as honest and easy to bully as outsiders think!

Not long after, the fifteenth king came back and brought me a comb and a mirror. Seeing that they were clearly for women, I asked him with a smile: "Where did the prince come from such exquisite things? Could it be that the golden house hides the beauty?"

He blushed and stammered in explanation: "This... I just asked a palace maid to get it."

"I'm just kidding you! Don't take it to heart," I said hurriedly. It seemed that I really couldn't joke around with him! But he was still a little attentive, so he took the mirror and dressed up. The mirror was in his hand.

I couldn't take it, so he sat opposite me and held it for me. After I quickly combed it, I thanked him and returned the comb to him.

When he took it, his palm touched my fingertips, he hurriedly pulled it out, and stuffed it into his sleeve.

I said: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Don't dare, my queen, sit down for a moment" and then left the cabin and continued rowing.

I no longer go out, I just look at those books quietly in trance

I don’t know how long it took, but he called me outside. I walked out and saw that I had reached the shore. He pointed to it and said, “It’s not far from Ningxiang Pavilion where the empress lives.”

"Thank you" I walked ashore cautiously, lowered my head and caught a glimpse of him holding his arms open behind me, as if he was afraid that I would fall if I accidentally fell. My heart warmed, even so, after all, I was a little worried about the notes in those books, so I didn't look back.

I thought all the way that it would be better to be more cautious when dealing with this fifteenth king in the future! Once a loyal and honest person shows his true face, I am afraid it will be more difficult to guard against than those who show their teeth and claws.

But, after all, he is just a prince. Moreover, in the past two days, I saw that he is somewhat protective of me. Maybe I can ask this fifteenth king to help me in the future.

After that, I never went to Penglai Pond again. I spent every day in my palace, or went to greet the queen, or talked to the concubine. I was so cautious and courteous that people couldn't catch me.

Half a year passed in the blink of an eye, and I occasionally learned from the queen that the emperor fought brilliantly on the battlefield, defeating the Turkic armies one after another. The Turks were retreating steadily, and I am afraid that they will submit a surrender list soon.

This news is certainly encouraging. The happiest person is none other than Concubine Zheng. Her second prince now has even the most prominent military exploits. If he succeeds to the throne of the prince in the future, are he afraid that some people will not accept it?

I occasionally meet the Fifteen Kings on the road, but we are not alone, so we always abide by the etiquette, greet each other and then leave without saying anything.

The emperor did not have time to come back to celebrate the New Year. I heard that he was celebrating the festival with the Turkic royal court. The Turkic royal court has already expressed his surrender. He hopes that he will be loyal to our heavenly dynasty every year, bow his head and pay tribute every year. The emperor's return date is scheduled for the end of the first year.

I'm afraid it will be almost three months before I come back.

I know that the emperor's triumphant return not only brought back tribute from the Turks, but also brought back a beautiful Turkic princess.

On the eve of the emperor's return to court, King Ning planned to launch a rebellion. Fortunately, my father knew about it in advance and united with Concubine He's father's servant Zhong Shuling and Zhong Shuling, the father of Concubine Zheng, to suppress the incident before it broke out.

I suppressed it before. This is why the emperor favored me first when he came back. He also gave me a banquet with the Turkic envoys and made me the concubine.
