Chapter 26 You actually had an affair with the Empress!
As Gongsun Qinghua and Xiao Shisan exchanged glances, she seemed a little embarrassed, her stunningly beautiful face slightly lowered.
Her profile was flushed, and she was extremely beautiful.
The first line is: "Lofty trees stand tall, pine, cypress, parasol, and willow!"
"This first line of the couplet, except for the very first character, all contains the character for 'wood'... Xiao Shisan, can you come up with a matching line?"
After Gongsun Qinghua finished speaking, she looked over with her beautiful eyes.
The hall was silent.
The air was filled with the faint fragrance of Gongsun Qinghua.
It smells wonderful!
Xiao Shisan took a deep sniff, feeling refreshed and invigorated. After a moment of contemplation, he smiled slightly.
"What's so difficult about that?"
My second line is... "A gentle stream flows, meandering through rivers, lakes, seas, and streams!"
"Hehe, except for the first character, all of them contain the water radical!"
Swish!
Gongsun Qinghua was stunned; this was too neat!
"Wait a moment, I'll be right back."
"Okay!" Xiao Shisan replied.
After Gongsun Qinghua left.
Xiao Shisan's lips curled up, and he quietly eavesdropped.
Immediately afterward, Gongsun Qinghua told Qin Keqing the first line of the couplet he had recited.
moment!
Qin Keqing's voice in the main hall was extremely shocked.
"Your Highness, you went out and thought about it for a while, and suddenly it all matched up? Could there be a hidden master out there?"
Xiao Shisan chuckled inwardly, "Isn't that the master I am?"
Gongsun Qinghua's voice remained dignified, but with a hint of smugness.
"Sister Qin, you're overthinking it. Where would I find any expert here?"
"I went out for a walk to clear my head, and that's when I got some inspiration."
"Sister Qin, shouldn't you punish yourself with three drinks?"
"Okay, I'll drink, I'll drink!" Qin Keqing responded, and after a short while, she said again:
"Your Majesty, let's try another couplet. The first line is: 'Frozen rain condenses into rain, rain condenses into clouds, frozen clouds obscure the moon!'"
"This..." Gongsun Qinghua hesitated, "Sister Qin, I need to go out and think about it."
Xiao Shisan suppressed a laugh.
Stumped again?
This time, before Gongsun Qing arrived with the painting, Xiao Shisan had already come up with the second line: "Cold mist locks frost, frost locks mist, cold mist shrouds mountains!"
When Gongsun Qinghua came, using the pretext of testing Xiao Shisan.
Xiao Shisan casually told Gongsun Qinghua the second line of the couplet...
Instantly!
Gongsun Qinghua was shocked once again!
This Xiao Shisan is quite capable... Gongsun Qinghua blushed and said, "Xiao Shisan, stay here and wait for me."
Done.
Before Xiao Shisan could speak, she left the hall.
Xiao Shisan, who was inside the small hall, couldn't help but shake his head and smile. This Gongsun Qinghua was really interesting, using my skills to show off...
quickly!
Then they heard Qin Keqing's startled voice.
"What a wonderful couplet! Consort Xian, it's amazing that you have such inspiration after just one visit. You must have been guided by a master!"
"Sister Qin, really no, I really didn't have any expert to guide me."
"Really? I peeked through the palace door and saw you go into the side hall. I'm going to go check it out..."
"Hey? Sister Qin!"
next moment!
Xiao Shisan then heard a series of chaotic footsteps, indicating that there was more than one person. It seemed that Qin Keqing was in front, and Gongsun Qinghua was chasing behind.
Xiao Shisan also understood that Qin Keqing could act so casually in the palace because she was the concubine of the powerful Left Prime Minister Li Sidao...
Oh shit!
If Qin Keqing were to see me, my reputation would reach the ears of the treacherous minister Li Sidao prematurely, which would be quite bad!
After all, it's best to stay in the shadows.
We should keep a low profile!
Just then, a mature and beautiful woman walked into the hall.
She wore a pale yellow dress and ivory high heels. Her waist was slender and delicate, and her fair legs were sometimes visible and sometimes hidden in the slit of her dress.
Wearing a flower hairpin in her hair, she exudes nobility; her oval face is fair and delicate; her eyebrows reach her temples; and she has slender eyebrows and phoenix eyes.
Duan Di was a mature and charming beauty.
Her red lips curled up like a crescent moon, and her eyes met Xiao Shisan's!
Clearly, she is Qin Keqing!
Xiao Shisan: "..."
I rely on!
The concubine of the Left Chancellor Li Sidao is indeed quite beautiful.
Qin Keqing's lips curled slightly, her eyes glancing at Gongsun Qinghua behind her: "Sister Xianfei, you still say there are no experts? Isn't this one?"
Gongsun Qinghua blushed and stepped forward to Qin Keqing, saying in a flustered manner, "Second Madam, this is a eunuch from the palace who came to help with the work."
Xiao Shisan naturally wouldn't admit to being some kind of expert.
After all, keeping a low profile is in your best interest these days!
At this moment, she saw Gongsun Qinghua secretly shaking her head at her.
Xiao Shisan smiled knowingly and said, "Yes, I was invited by the Empress to help with the work."
"Really?"
Qin Keqing, her red lips curving into a charming smile, swayed gracefully as she walked over, her beautiful eyes filled with doubt.
"I'll give you the first line of a couplet. If you can't come up with a matching one, I'll have you killed!!"
The first line of the couplet is: Pine needles and bamboo leaves, each leaf emerald green!
Xiao Shisan was startled.
With a gurgling sound.
He swallowed nervously.
Holy crap, this woman's got some nerve!
Even Gongsun Qinghua was so frightened that her face turned pale. Then she pursed her red lips and nodded secretly to Xiao Shisan.
This indicates that Xiao Shisan can provide the matching line.
Xiao Shisan remained calm and thought for a moment.
He laughed and said, "Moonlight and frost, so clear and bright. The sound of wind and rain, so urgent and urgent."
"Hehe, Second Madam, whichever of these two couplets you think is suitable, that's it."
Gongsun Qinghua: "!!!"
Qin Keqing: "!!!"
They clashed in just a few breaths?!
This person is truly talented!
Qin Keqing was slightly startled, then her smile became even more charming, and she glanced back out of the corner of her eye:
"Sister Xianfei, you still say he's not a master? Look, even the masters are answering first!"
Xiao Shisan: "..."
Damn it, someone beat me to it!
If I don't answer first, you're going to kill me!
Caught red-faced with embarrassment at having to consult a master, Gongsun Qinghua looked away and said, "I'm sorry to have made Sister Qin laugh. I'll punish myself later..."
"Alright!"
Qin Keqing waved her hand, then looked at him with a smile in her beautiful eyes: "This handsome young eunuch, what is your name?"
"Uh..." Xiao Shisan was considering coming up with a fake name to deal with the situation.
Gongsun Qinghua blurted out, "Oh, his name is Xiao Shisan, the head steward of Changchun Palace! Xiao Shisan, why aren't you going back to Changchun Palace?"
Xiao Shisan: "..."
I rely on?
Thank you so much!
Xiao Shisan was speechless.
Well, this trip has already turned into a mess, before I could even finish Wei Gonggong's task with Gongsun Qinghua.
"Hehe, yes, this servant takes his leave!" Xiao Shisan was about to bow and leave when...
"Xiao Shisan? Wait a minute!"
Qin Keqing called out to Xiao Shisan, and then, as if remembering something, smiled and said, "Sister Xianfei, you may go out first. I have some couplets to consult him about."
Ask him why I need to go out.
Gongsun Qinghua's beautiful eyes sparkled as she gave Xiao Shisan a deep look before gracefully walking out of the hall.
Xiao Shisan was extremely nervous.
Qin Keqing swayed her slender waist, stepped forward to close the palace door, and then walked towards this side with a smile on her face.
She was tall and slender, her long legs appearing and disappearing through the slits of her skirt.
"Xiao Shisan!"
"That's what I find strange."
"Since you are a eunuch from Changchun Palace, why have you come to Consort Xian's place?"
"But upon closer inspection, he really is quite handsome. Could it be that you and Consort Xian, Gongsun Qinghua, are having an affair?"
She had just drunk wine in the palace, and now her eyes gleamed with a hint of intoxication, her beautiful lips curved into a smile, and her face was stunningly beautiful.
Xiao Shisan quickly shook his head.
"I had an affair with Consort Xian? There must be some misunderstanding!"
"Second Madam, you can't say things like that carelessly."
This statement was made.
Qin Keqing shook her head and smiled, her beauty captivating.
"Come on!"
"I've heard that in the past, it wasn't just palace maids who would find lovers in the imperial harem."
Even the empresses in the imperial harem would choose some handsome eunuchs to comfort them.
"Look at you, eunuch. Not only are you handsome, but you also have such a strong chest. Even I'm envious."
"Not to mention Consort Xian, who has never tasted the pleasures of a man—"
Her voice was soft and alluring.
As we were talking!
Qin Keqing approached Xiao Shisan with a charming smile.
The air was filled with the fragrance of incense and the aroma of alcohol.
"Hey, hey, hey? What are you doing!" Xiao Shisan exclaimed in surprise.
A smile bloomed on her face, and taking advantage of her drunkenness, her delicate hands groped haphazardly over Xiao Shisan's body. Xiao Shisan tried to take a step back, but her hands moved even faster...
Suddenly!
Xiao Shisan's eyes widened.
"Ah... Xiao Shisan, you are!"
She took a step back in fright, tilting her beautiful, bare face up in disbelief: "Xiao Shisan, you...you're a man?"
The air was so still you could hear a pin drop!
Depend on!
She actually found out!
Xiao Shisan's eyes flashed with murderous intent as he pondered whether or not to silence them.
Then Qin Keqing smiled meaningfully, swayed her ample hips, opened the palace door with her delicate hand, and walked out...
Only a lingering fragrance remains in the air!
Not long after.
The conversation between Qin Keqing and Gongsun Qinghua could be heard outside.
"Sister Xianfei, I'll be leaving now!"
"Yes, Sister Qin often comes to visit." Consort Xian, Gongsun Qinghua, spoke calmly and dignifiedly.
call!
Xiao Shisan breathed a sigh of relief.
I don't understand what Qin Keqing meant by that smile just now.
All we can do now is pray that she won't tell anyone.
Otherwise, you're doomed!
Recalling Qin Keqing's arrogant demeanor just now, Xiao Shisan narrowed his eyes.
It seems I need to take the initiative and start planning and looking for opportunities to bring down the powerful minister Li Sidao.
otherwise!
This is like walking on thin ice in the palace, it's fucking terrifying.
Just as I was anxiously pondering my thoughts.
Then, Gongsun Qinghua, dressed in a white palace dress adorned with red plum blossoms, walked in gracefully.
She parted her lips slightly.
"Xiao Shisan!"
"Your literary talent is indeed exceptional, and you have won my favor."
"Come with me to my bedchamber!"
Gongsun Qinghua's beautiful eyes sparkled, her cheeks were rosy, and she was infinitely beautiful:
"But you must remember! After we're done, you must not utter a single word about what happened between us."
That's all!
Leaving Xiao Shisan with a beautiful silhouette...
She actually kept her promise?!
"Hehe, no problem!"
Xiao Shisan followed closely behind. This trip was truly thrilling and exciting! If I didn't make you scream loudly, I wouldn't be Xiao Shisan!
