Text The Calm Before the Storm
Qingzhu was strolling in the imperial garden, lingering in the same place. The emperor, who was sitting in the pavilion, couldn't help but feel a little strange when he saw Qingzhu walking around. Today's Qingzhu seemed different from the past, and he seemed to be worried.
"Qingzhu, don't walk around in front of me. My eyes are blurry. Are you worried about something?" The emperor asked with concern.
Qingzhu looked at the emperor. In fact, he did have something to do. He had been thinking about a way to see the Eight Wise Kings, but telling the emperor would definitely make him unhappy, so it was better not to say anything. "It's okay, it's just that the weather has been cold recently. I want to walk more."
It will be warmer if we go." Qingzhu has stayed in the human world for a long time, and his lies are no longer as nervous and unnatural as they were at the beginning.
The emperor frowned and looked at Qingzhu and said, "It's already autumn. If you wear so little every day, you will naturally get cold, Xiao Anzi."
"My servant is here." Xiao Anzi walked up to the emperor and saluted.
"Immediately order to make some fitting clothes and coats for Concubine Qing using the finest silk." The emperor said to Xiao Anzi.
Xiao Anzi said, "Yes, when will the emperor make tailor-made clothes for Concubine Qing?"
The emperor said, "We will measure it when Concubine Qing wants to measure it."
"Yes." After Xiao Anzi finished speaking, he bowed and left.
Qingzhu looked at the direction where Xiao Anzi left and had a sudden idea in his mind. Since he couldn't see the Eight Wise Kings in person, but he could let the Eight Wise Kings see him, as long as the emperor or concubine made new clothes in the palace, they usually made them from outside the palace.
After finding the best tailor to measure your body, he will design the most suitable style of clothing based on each person's appearance and personality, and show it to the emperor or concubine. After reviewing it, you can choose to use the best silk fabric to make it, absolutely unique.
, usually when the tailor comes, he will bring an assistant to help him get things, etc., then he will have the opportunity to meet the Eight Wise Kings, and Xiao Anzi could not trust him more.
"Is Qingzhu still cold?" The emperor took Qingzhu's hand and held it tightly. He hoped that his warm hands could convey all the warmth to Qingzhu.
Qingzhu looked at the emperor and smiled and said, "It's not cold anymore."
The emperor held Qingzhu in his arms and said softly, "Qingzhu, when do you want to measure the clothes?"
"Three days later." Qingzhu smiled.
The emperor looked at Qingzhu and felt something was wrong. Qingzhu was obviously a thousand-year-old bamboo demon, so how could he be afraid of the cold? He thought that with Qingzhu's character, he would not agree to the measurement of clothes, but unexpectedly Qingzhu actually agreed and said that in three days,
Does Qingzhu already know that the new clothes she made for him are the Queen's outfit? He has ordered everyone in the palace to keep this matter strictly confidential and not to reveal even a single word. If anyone says a wrong word, they will have their heads chopped off.
It's because I want to give Qingzhu a surprise. In a few days, there will be a ceremony for Qingzhu to be canonized as queen. I must have Qingzhu at that time, because although Qingzhu is a demon, she is kind-hearted and has a sense of responsibility. If
When she becomes a queen, she is the mother of a country. How could she leave here regardless of the country's comfort? Maybe she is a bit selfish if she leaves, but as long as she can keep Qingzhu, what's wrong?
Xiao Anzi was about to leave the palace to find the best tailor to measure new clothes for Princess Qing. Just as he was about to leave the palace, he was stopped by Xiaoyu.
"Xiaoyu, what do you want from me?" Xiao Anzi was pulled aside by Xiaoyu.
"Xiao Anzi, come with me quickly." Xiaoyu pulled Xiao Anzi and looked around furtively.
Before Xiao Anzi could say anything, Xiao Anzi was pulled by Xiaoyu to a corner where few people come. "Xiaoyu, where are you taking me? Why is it so mysterious that you can't talk about it face to face? You have to find such a remote place."
"
At this time Qingzhu walked out from the corner of the wall, "I asked Xiaoyu to drag you here."
Xiao Anzi asked in confusion, "What are Princess Qing's orders? Why do you have to say it here?"
Qingzhu winked at Xiaoyu and signaled Xiaoyu to go ahead and look out so that no one could see him. Xiaoyu quickly understood what Qingzhu meant and went to look out not far ahead.
After Qingzhu saw Xiaoyu leaving, he said to Xiao Anzi, "I came to you this time to ask for something."
Xiao Anzi saluted and said, "I'm scared. If Concubine Qing has something to do, please tell me directly. I will try my best to complete it."
"This matter of mine may not be a big deal, but it is not a small matter. If there is even a slight deviation, I am afraid it will kill you." What Qingzhu said was not to scare Xiao Anzi at all. If he knew the emperor's temper,
If I secretly meet the Eight Wise Kings, I will definitely get very angry. The emperor will definitely take it out on Xiao Anzi as his accomplice, and it is very likely that Xiao Anzi will be killed. This is the so-called killing of the chicken to show the monkey.
Xiao Anzi said without thinking, "It is Xiao Anzi's blessing to be able to do things for Princess Qing. Xiao Anzi will definitely handle things without leakage. Xiao Anzi's life belongs to Princess Qing. Xiao Anzi is willing to do everything for Princess Qing."
No matter what happens, I will go through fire and water without hesitation.”
Qingzhu looked at Xiao Anzi speaking with great righteousness, as if he was ready to die in the line of duty. Qingzhu was a little shocked. Xiao Anzi turned out to be so sincere to him, but if the emperor really wanted to punish Xiao Anzi, he would definitely do it.
Desperately protecting Xiao Anzi, and absolutely not letting Xiao Anzi get hurt in the slightest because of himself, Qingzhu said, "Xiao Anzi, don't worry, I will protect you."
Xiao Anzi couldn't help but feel a little stunned after hearing Qing Huangfei's words. She thought that Qingzhu would change after becoming the imperial concubine, but she didn't expect that she would still be the same as before.
Qingzhu didn't notice Xiao Anzi's different expression, and said to himself, "Xiao Anzi, are you going to leave the palace to find a tailor now?"
Xiao Anzi nodded and said, "Yes."
Qingzhu asked Xiao Anzi, "Do tailors always bring an assistant to help them carry things?"
Xiao Anzi still said "Yes."
After getting Xiao Anzi's affirmative answer, Qingzhu said, "What I want you to do is to let the Eighth Sage King enter the palace instead of this assistant."
"What?" Xiao Anzi stared at Concubine Qing in surprise, "The Eight Wise Kings can already enter the palace, why does Concubine Qing want the Eight Wise Kings to dress up as tailor's assistants?"
Qingzhu said, "Of course there is something important. The emperor's decree stipulates that I cannot see the Eight Sages, so I came up with this plan." Qingzhu handed a piece of paper to Xiao Anzi and said, "Give this paper to the Eight Sages."
King." Qingzhu knew that Xiao Anzi could not read, so he gave the note to Xiao Anzi with confidence.
Xiao Anzi didn't ask any more questions, he put the note away and said, "Then Princess Qing, I will take my leave first."
Qingzhu said, "Go, be careful." Qingzhu originally wanted to return the note to the Eight Wise Kings in person, but was afraid that the Eight Wise Kings would not be able to control their emotions by then. The meaning of giving the note to him was obvious.
I just want to tell him that I know what he is thinking, but I only have the Emperor in my heart. I hope he will stop thinking about it. The Eight Wise King is a smart man and will definitely understand.
As soon as Xiao Anzi came out of the palace, he read the contents of the note. A sinister smile flashed across Xiao Anzi's face. Xiao Anzi did not go to the tailor or the Eight Wise Kings, but went straight to the prime minister's house.
