"Empress, Mr. Li is here again."

As soon as Xia Qiqi put down the teacup, Yang Chun, who was beside him, said something to her. She then looked up and found that Fu Li was walking towards the yard. The cold moonlight just hit him, placing him with a layer of silver light.

"Xiao Qi." Fu Li smiled gently, looking at Xia Qiqi's face with a gentle smile on his face.

"It's so late, why are you here?" Xia Qiqi stood up, and although she was angry, her face was full of smiles.

If Long Lingyue is the person she least wants to see, then Fu Li is the person she most wants to see.

Just because of one sentence.

He understands her.

"I saw that the moonlight is good today, so I wanted to invite Xiaoqi and I to go to the lotus pond to enjoy the flowers. I don't know if Xiaoqi wants it or not."

After saying that, he continued to add.

"It's summer now, and the lotus flowers in the lotus pond are blooming in full bloom. Xiaoqi doesn't want to miss such a beautiful scenery."

Xia Qiqi nodded.

For some reason, she suddenly felt that her body was a little hot at this time, but it was summer and it should be considered normal. It would be nice to go to the lotus pond to have a breath.

What's more, Fu Li was the one who invited her, and she never refused Fu Li's invitation.

"Okay, I just want to invite you to have a look, let's go."

By the lotus pond.

In the palace, not only palaces, courtyards, but also lotus ponds have been designed by professional designers.

Whether it is big or small, the type of lotus, or the lighting, they are carefully designed and are naturally not bad.

“It’s really beautiful here!”

Xia Qiqi smelled the faint fragrance of lotus flowers, spread her arms, closed her eyes slightly, and felt the tranquility of the night and the fragrance of flowers.

As a modern person, Xia Qiqi has naturally seen not too few lotus ponds. She has seen even the lotus flowers in West Lake, Hangzhou.

I have to say that West Lake is really beautiful, but compared with the lotus she saw in front of her, it seems too petty.

The lotus pond here is really big. Xia Qiqi only felt that the green and pink colors in front of him shone together. The endless lotus pond seemed to cover the entire world and bring a powerful visual impact to people.

And the faint fragrance of lotus can't help but make people want to fall.

It was a strong and hot fragrance different from the rose. The fragrance of lotus, like his image, emerged from the mud without staining, with a cold and elegant feeling.

"I heard that this lotus pond was built by an emperor for his favorite concubine."

"The emperor loved his concubine very much, but at that time, the emperor was still very young and his power was not completely in his own hands. He seemed to have planned to sign his beloved concubine as the queen, but at that time, he was forced by the General of the Cavalry. He had no choice but to marry the daughter of the general as the queen.

But when the beloved concubine found out, she was heartbroken and eventually committed suicide. After the emperor learned that his beloved concubine had committed suicide, he opposed the objection and deposed the queen, but even so, his beloved concubine could not come back.

The concubine's favorite flower during her lifetime was lotus, so in order to commemorate her beloved concubine, the emperor asked someone to build such a lotus pond."

Fu Li looked at Xia Qiqi softly.

"Xiao Qi, what do you think of this story?"

Xia Qiqi was slightly stunned, but then she was disdainful.

"Not very good, no matter the emperor or his beloved concubine, they are all fools."

“…”

Fu Li was slightly shocked. He didn't expect that Xiao Qi would have thought so.

"This story has always touched countless people. Why did it not be so good when you got to you?"

"Isn't it?" Xia Qiqi asked naturally.

"Why didn't the emperor directly named the concubine as a concubine before? He had to wait until the concubine died before regretting it. People always like to know how to cherish it after losing it. Wouldn't they be a big fool? If they knew how to cherish it early, how could there be regrets later?"

"And that concubine is the same. Is it really worth it for her to do this? Since she has become someone else's concubine, she should be in advance to share the awareness of a woman with other women.

However, because the emperor did not give her the queen, she had to look for a shortcoming. Her ability to bear in her heart was too weak. She would die sooner or later in a place like the palace."

Xia Qiqi did not hesitate at all when she said these words.

The various experiences in her previous life made her accustomed to these things long ago. She became used to seeing them, so she became indifferent, so she was not easily moved by such things.

On the contrary, this kind of thing was actually a very stupid behavior in her eyes.

"What's wrong, Fu Li, don't you think I'm too cold, right?"

Xia Qiqi saw that Fu Li had not spoken and thought he didn't like his statement.

These are all what she blurted out, and are the true thoughts in her heart.

In some ways, she didn't want Fu Li to dislike her idea.

After all, everyone hopes to be moved.

"No, it's just very special." Fu Li came to his senses. Xiao Qi's words just now surprised him. He didn't react for a while, so he didn't react.

"Special?" What's so special about this? Just think about it deeply. Will it be like this soon?

"Yes, it's very special." Fu Li affirmed again, looking at Xia Qiqi with a burning look, which made Xia Qiqi, who was already very hot, feel even more hot.

Unconsciously licked his dry lips, but didn't know that this was full of attraction in front of Fu Li.

"I've never seen anyone who has this view of this story."

Fu Li hurriedly turned his eyes away.

For some reason, he always felt that Xiaoqi tonight was full of charm.

He was afraid that he would really fall in love with another look.

"Is that? Then what do they think?"

Xia Qiqi didn't think there was anything wrong with her thoughts. The facts were like this. She just had the courage to reveal them, but it was just reality.

"They." Fu Li's memory suddenly returned to the place he had just arrived.

That day, several more palace maids came to deliver food to him.

He thought it was nothing, and he didn't plan to eat it.

When the palace maids set up the meal and were about to leave, they started talking at the gate.

His understanding of this story also began at that time.

He still remembers the expressions of the palace maids when they talked about this story.

"Touched! I have seen many people cry for the tragic love between the emperor and his beloved concubine when they talk about this story."

It is a yearning for love and sympathy for misfortune.

"Oh." Xia Qiqi nodded.

It’s right to think so. This kind of story is really touching. There were many people in their previous lives using this kind of story to earn people’s tears, and it’s normal for them to be moved.

"What about Fu Li's thoughts? How do Fu Li feel about this kind of story?"

"Me?" Fu Li shook his head.

"I don't know either, I should be the same as Xiaoqi."

He never asked about his thoughts, he just treated himself as an unrelated person and never brought him in.

"That's how it is." Xia Qiqi was a little happy.

She was really afraid that Fu Li would be the same as those people.

How could a person as noble as Fu Li just be immersed in touch?

Xia Qiqi slowly closed her eyes and felt the refreshing summer night and the fragrance of lotus flowers.

The two of them stayed quietly together, sitting by the lotus pond, keeping a certain distance.

After a long time, Xia Qiqi suddenly opened her eyes, a hint of thunder and eagerness flashed in her eyes, looking at Fu Li.

"Fu Li, I have enjoyed enough lotus flowers, so why don't we go back."

When Xia Qiqi spoke, her voice trembled.

Fu Li noticed something wrong with Xia Qiqi almost at the same time, and quickly opened his eyes and looked at Xia Qiqi.

"Xiao Qi, you..." Fu Li was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

Although it is night now, the moon is very big and the light is very strong in summer.

The white moonlight just shone on Xia Qiqi's pretty little face.

Xia Qiqi's face was flushed at this time, and her half-open delicate mouth.

Fu Li had never seen such a charming Xiao Qi.

She was like an elf suddenly appeared in the dark night.

A few strands of hair were mischievously attached to the smooth and plump forehead.

A bright and tempting mouth, when I breathed in and out, the plumpness on my chest also became floating up and down due to my low breathing.
