"You can prepare for the next step." Si Ningchi sat down slowly on the side, raised his eyes to look at Shen Ting and said with a narrowed smile, "The fun has just begun."

"Yes." Shen Ting complied.

When Si Haoze led Fang Zhiyao into the palace to meet the queen, Shen Ting had just left the palace.

The newlyweds looked at each other like glue. Fang Zhiyao paid homage to the Queen with a hint of red on his face. He turned around and was presented with snacks made by himself and said softly: "How does the Queen have a good appetite lately?"

"This is a snack suitable for pregnancy that I followed the recipe of the cook." Fang Zhiyao said in a low voice: "I made two portions in total, and the other one was given to Princess Chaoyang. "

"You are really thoughtful." Si Ningchi praised a few words, took a piece of snack in front of Fang Zhiyao, took a bite, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "The sweetness is moderate, soft and glutinous, it is really good."

"If your Majesty likes it, I can do more some other time." Fang Zhiyao was very happy and said quickly.

"It's enough to eat something fresh. Don't do such rough work with your little hands. Brother will feel distressed soon." Si Ningchi smiled and turned to look at Si Haoze, his tone was very brisk.

"Empress..." Fang Zhiyao suddenly blushed and lowered her head shyly.

The smile on Si Ningchi's face became even wider, but Si Haoze next to him said, "Is your health okay? The matters in the palace..."

Although Si Ningchi had settled his relationship with Si Haoze in advance, news from the palace came out from time to time, which still made Si Haoze couldn't help but worry.

Si Ningchi looked calm and said with a smile: "Everything is as usual."

When Si Ningchi said this, Si Haoze understood. At that moment, his eyebrows relaxed a little and he said to Si Ningchi: "The heavy gift that the empress sent to the Xiwu Hou Mansion two days ago disturbed the peace of the Hou Mansion. Yesterday, My father came to my house."

"He is really good at picking on the weak. The gift is from me. If you don't come to the palace to come to me, why do you come to find me?" Si Ningchi sneered, his eyes full of boredom.

"I just don't understand that the empress is just expressing her bad temper?" Si Haoze felt that the matter was not that simple.

"Hmph." Si Ningchi sneered, raised his hand to hold the cup on the table, took a sip and said coldly: "Mr. Liu has been with Si Yirong for many years, and apart from Si Qionglian, she has never been pregnant with a son and a half. , now you move out of the Marquis Mansion and start a family of your own."

"Then Mrs. Liu turned around and got pregnant." Si Ningchi said with a smile: "In the end, do you think Mrs. Liu is obedient?"

"Or can she pinch and calculate?"

Of course, Si Ningchi didn't find any definite evidence, it was just her speculation and suspicion.

She did such a show just to scare off the enemy. If someone outside the Liu family really borrowed seeds to give birth to a child, that would be what she would be most happy to see.

If there was no such thing, she could just assume that she deliberately disgusted Si Yirong and poured dirty water on Mrs. Liu.

She had long been fed up with Mrs. Liu and Si Qionglian. Now that Si Qionglian was no longer of any use, the Holy King's Mansion was her burial place, so naturally she couldn't help Mrs. Liu. Why should she have any scruples?

"If Si Yirong can trust Mrs. Liu, how will this disgusting little trick of mine affect the two of them?" Si Ningchi smiled nonchalantly, with the evil look in his eyes so clear.

"The empress's behavior has provoked the imperial censors in the court to comment one after another, fearing that it will damage the empress' reputation." Si Haoze said helplessly.

"When did I care about my reputation?" Si Ningchi smiled disdainfully and said with narrowed eyes: "Let them think that I am just venting my anger on others because I am unhappy in the palace."

"This must make people feel that I am about to fall out of favor~"

Because Si Haoze entered the palace, many people watched and watched. Finally, they saw with their own eyes the anger on Si Haoze's face when he left the palace. I heard that he even went to talk to the emperor for a while.

No one knew what was said. All they knew was that the emperor was in a bad mood for the next two days and did not even look at the queen.

Jin Zhaoyi wanted to see the emperor but did not see him. In such a situation, some people secretly guessed that Si Haoze must be grieving for the empress.

Princess Chaoyang was injured during childbirth and is still recuperating in the palace. She has not been able to come to the palace on her own initiative. However, she has sent letters several times to express her grievances for the queen. Now that the palace is in chaos, Jin Zhaoyi is becoming more and more favored.

.

Originally, the emperor always dined with the empress, but now he spent most of his time dining with Jin Zhaoyi.

The only gratifying thing is that the emperor has never visited Jin Zhaoyi so far. Perhaps it is precisely because of this that everyone feels at ease.

"General Han is so brave!" The bandits in Yuzhong were defeated by Han Yulang in such a short period of time. The emperor was overjoyed and held a banquet in the palace, which seemed to dilute the gloom on everyone's faces.

"Your Majesty, I heard that Jin Zhaoyi will perform a dance at the banquet today." Su Yun informed Si Ningchi of the news.

Because Siningchi was heavy, he did not go to the banquet in the palace.

Concubine De was still in confinement, and the last ones to go were Concubine Shu and Concubine Li.

Concubine Shu and Concubine Li didn't move around much at first, but now there are fewer people talking in the palace, and with the incident involving Jin Zhaoyi, they end up in one place inexplicably.

"Sister Shu Fei looks bad?" Li Fei raised her eyes and looked at Shu Fei, wondering why the bones in Shu Fei's body were getting thinner.

"Cough..." Concubine Shu covered her lips and coughed, lowered her eyes and said, "It's an old problem, it's nothing serious."

"There are new people in the palace one after another. Sister, you have to take good care of yourself." Concubine Li sighed and comforted her in a low voice.

Concubine Shu smiled and said nothing. She probably felt that both the newcomers and the old ones in the palace were just birds in a cage, unable to be free.

While Concubine Li was speaking, she caught a glimpse of Jin Zhaoyi, who was dressed gorgeously and richly, standing up, with a soft voice, about to dance for the emperor, with that cute little look, his brows and eyes were full of joy, and there seemed to be a hint of light in his eyes.

That look in her eyes was all too familiar to her. It was nothing more than an ambition to climb up.

The emperor, who had never been keen on dancing, actually agreed to her offer of dancing today.

Jin Zhaoyi's dancing is not very good, at least it is incomparable with that of Concubine Rong back then, but what is better is that she is young and lively, and her waist is so soft that she seems to be unbearable.

Concubine Li saw the emperor sitting upright with her own eyes. She seemed to be attracted, and her heart felt cold at that moment.

"What a bitch." Li Fei gritted her teeth and said, "If the Queen were here, I would definitely chop off her hands and feet!"

She used to think that the queen acted ruthlessly and was very scary.

Only now do I know what happiness is!

Concubine Li clenched her handkerchief angrily, hoping in her heart that the Queen would give birth to a baby soon and come back to teach Jin Zhaoyi a lesson.
