Nalan Baiqiong was suddenly a little worried about Qiqing and asked tentatively,""A thirteen-year-old child is too skinny. Do you like such a young one?”
"Naturally, I don't like those who are too thin." Nalan Wende denied it immediately," Although Little Eleven is only thirteen, her body size is also that of a sixteen or seventeen-year-old woman. Her charm is natural.”
Nalan Wende saw Nalan Baiqiong asking again and again, and said,""I won't part with Little Eleven. Sister, don't even think about it.”
Nalan Baiqiong didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Accompanying Nalan Wende to Jianyue, the sky was already completely dark. Nalan Wende was tired from the long journey after all, so he went back to rest first. Nalan Baiqiong also heaved a sigh of relief and returned to Asahi Palace.
Judging from their interactions, he was not a thoughtful person. He was more like a child who had been spoiled by his elders. He had the common problems of the nobles.
Nalan Baiqiong was very worried. As a modern person, it was inevitable that she would feel uncomfortable when she saw the royal family being extravagant and licentious while the commoners swallowed their anger. However, she had no reason to say anything. After all, this was how it was in ancient times.
As the emperor, did she have the chance and ability to change all of this?
These days, Nalan Baiqiong had not been idle about the matters outside the palace. Shen Jingmin had gradually started to handle some of Shen Yanxi's official duties. Nalan Baiqiong had even given some to Tang Jinchuan to handle. Other than putting on a show, he was more focused on managing the backlines outside the palace with Shen Yanxi.
She had already told Shen Yanxi about her plan to leave the palace one day. Shen Yanxi was also helping her with everything. The business of the restaurant and embroidery workshop was very good, but it was not so good that it was suspicious. Other than the opening of the restaurant that attracted some attention, Nalan Baiqiong felt that it was better to keep a low profile.
She had promoted Luo Shen a few times, and now Luo Shen was already a fourth-grade official. The speed of his promotion had attracted the suspicion of many people. It was only then that they suddenly realized that this inspector of the Ministry of Revenue was actually an extraordinary character. He always greeted people with a smile and spoke with words that could sway a thousand pounds. They didn't even know if he had been promoted to his current official position by honest advice or calumny.
There was only one restaurant and embroidery workshop in the Imperial City, but Nalan Baiqiong had also asked Shen Yanxi to train a group of good merchants. Each person was assigned two secret guards to spread out around the Imperial City. They gradually expanded their territory and tried to open up a chain of stores. Of course, the signboards were all changed so that no one would notice.
Luo Shen helped him pay attention to the officials in the court and noted down any virtuous officials that could be used.
The triennial imperial examination was also approaching, and there were still many things that needed to be done.
In the palace, Nalan Baiqiong seemed to have become her past self. She played with Nalan Wende every day. Often, in the middle of the night, she would light candles everywhere, saying that she would admire the flowers and the moon. She even brought two horses from the Myriad Beast Garden to the rear palace, and the two of them had a lot of fun.
After Tang Xue said it a few times, she let Nalan Baiqiong be. Anyway, it was not the first time she did such ridiculous things. It was good to be ridiculous. She did not have the time to interfere in the court.
After Nalan Wendi bumped into Nalan Baiyao on his horse, Nalan Baiyao refused to live in the palace anymore. She even ran to Liu Dai 'er and shed a few tears.
Liu Dai 'er was not as ridiculous as Nalan Wende. She persuaded Tang Xue to suppress Nalan Baiqiong and let Nalan Baiyao go back. It was as if there were two empress dowager in the palace.
On this night, Nalan Wende asked Nalan Baiqiong out to admire the flowers. Nalan Baiqiong had no choice but to go. If he didn't go, who knew which palace lady he was going to pamper? No matter how much he persuaded her, it was useless. In this young master's eyes, there was only the word " play ". Fortunately, Cheng Yan was open-minded. In less than half a month, she had carried three concubines in the palace. The reason why she didn't carry one was because it was a man.
Nalan Baiqiong really wanted to slap this cousin of his in the face. However, those palace servants all said that it was voluntary. Even that guard was not willing to let Nalan Baiqiong punish Nalan Wende a little. A good man was turned gay just like that. Seeing this, Nalan Baiqiong could only feel speechless.
"Sister, you're here." Nalan Baiqiong was lying under the flowers with a white jade flask of wine in his hand. He took a sip and handed it to Nalan Baiqiong.
Nalan Baiqiong had learned to drink quite a few times recently. Shen Yanxi and the others had watched him go crazy a few times in the Asahi Palace, so his alcohol tolerance had improved a little.
However, Nalan Baiqiong still couldn't drink from someone else's jug like this. He thought to himself that this cousin was too intimate with him.
However, Nalan Baiqiong still took it and pretended to take a sip with her sleeve. She returned it to him."I still have to go to court tomorrow. You're free, but you still asked me out for a drink.”Nalan Wende was probably the only person who did not allow Nalan Baiqiong to address himself as Zhen. Nalan Baiqiong was also happy to change his words.
It was unknown how much he had drunk before coming here. At this moment, his face was slightly red, and he had the charm of a man."So what if I don't go to court? Sister, I found another beauty.”
"You still want beauties?" Nalan Baiqiong couldn't help but pull his ear." Look at how long you've only been in this palace, and you already have more concubines than me, the emperor. Is this harem yours or mine?"”
"Let go, sister, it hurts!" Nalan Wende pushed Nalan Baiqiong's hand away aggrievedly, but he wasn't angry." You don't like it anyway. I love these lonely people on your behalf, and you're still unhappy. Be careful that they're in the depths of the palace and will complain and secretly curse you!"”
As he spoke, he got up and pulled Nalan Baiqiong's hand to go somewhere. Nalan Baiqiong had no choice but to follow him. If he did not do as he wished, he would probably not be able to return tonight.
The more they walked, the more remote the place became. Nalan Baiqiong could not help but ask,"Where are you taking me?"
Nalan Wende turned his head and glanced at Nalan Baiqiong. His eyes were watery as he spat out two words,""Heaven Prison."
Nalan Baiqiong had a bad premonition and was brought to the imperial prison by Nalan Wende. Nalan Baiqiong had never been to this place before, so it was not as dirty as she had thought. It was more like a palace built underground. Every room was tightly sealed, and an unknown person was locked up.
What kind of beauty could there be in the imperial prison? Could it be…
Nalan Baiqiong had guessed correctly. The person Nalan Wende brought her to see was really Night Kill. It had been a long time since they last met. Other than his pale face, he did not look much different from before. He was wearing plain clothes and had a cold expression.
"Beauty, I brought you a flute.”Nalan Wende took out a bamboo flute from his waist and threw it to Night Kill. He smiled and said," Now, you can tell me your name and play a song for me, right?"”
Night Kill took the bamboo flute and stared at Nalan Baiqiong with hatred in his eyes."No, you didn't say that you would bring this person along.”
