Chapter 34
Chen Qingqing accepted the bracelet given to her by Li Zhi.
First, Li Zhi insisted on giving her away, and second, she really liked the pair of bracelets.
Chen Qingqing felt that if she didn't like bracelets and then insisted on refusing, it would be a firm mind, but she obviously liked but refused to accept it because of her shamelessness. What about showing off? She and Li Zhi were husband and wife. Li Zhi took so many advantages. Now he gave her gifts, and Chen Qingqing wanted nothing. Wouldn't that be stupid?
Not to mention anything else, the two will have a common legitimate son in the future. Could it be that she doesn’t need Li Zhi to help raise the child because she doubts Li Zhi’s sincerity?
Surely impossible.
After receiving the bracelet, Chen Qingqing immediately figured out another thing. She would not take the initiative to ask Li Zhi for gifts, but Li Zhi took the initiative to send her, and she would not refuse anyone. As long as she kept her heart, she would be a loving couple with him unless she was sure that Li Zhi had really reformed and was worthy of her like, Chen Qingqing would be a loving couple with him.
Although Li Zhi has been working hard after marriage, Chen Qingqing's menstrual affairs came on the tenth day of April.
When he found out that his clothes were dirty, Li Zhi had already gone to the palace to serve as an office worker.
Chen Qingqing sat alone on the bed, her whole body was filled with disappointment.
She wanted to get pregnant soon and sleep with Li Zhi quickly. Although she was not so uncomfortable when she was in sex now, Li Zhi was too energetic and physically strong, and every time Chen Qingqing was exhausted by him. It would be fine if he was physically tired, but what was unbearable was that Li Zhi was more and more fond of teasing her, making Chen Qingqing almost unable to maintain the pride and reserve of a noble woman in front of him during the day.
In the evening, Li Zhi came back and when he was resting after dinner, Chen Qingqing lowered his eyes and said to him: "You go to the front yard to sleep these few nights. I, my menstrual period is coming."
Li Zhi heard the words, carefully observed her expression, and asked with concern: "Do you feel uncomfortable in your body?"
Chen Qingqing thought that he would be disappointed because he was not pregnant or could not take advantage of her anymore, but he did not expect Li Zhi to ask this.
After the accident, Chen Qingqing shook her head first, then asked him with a strange look: "How do you know... a woman will feel uncomfortable at this time?"
Li Zhi smiled and explained in a low voice: "My parents went there early, and the concubine is my only sister."
Chen Qingqing understood that the brother and sister who depended on each other suddenly felt uncomfortable one day, and the brother would definitely pay attention.
Chen Qingqing couldn't help but think of his brother Chen Su, and when Li Zhi would be as gentle as his brother to protect his sister, Chen Qingqing finally felt a bit of humanity in Li Zhi.
She raised her eyes quietly and saw Li Zhi holding a tea bowl with one hand and facing the bowl with his phoenix eyes, as if he had some memories.
The memories should be very beautiful because Li Zhi's eyes were particularly gentle.
But not long after, his gentleness became a complex that Chen Qingqing could not understand.
"What did you think of?" Chen Qingqing asked curiously.
The strangeness in Li Zhi's eyes disappeared quickly, he smiled at her and said, "It's better to sleep with you, I won't bother you."
Chen Qingqing was quite suspicious about this. Can he really bear it?
As a result, that night, Li Zhi did not have any lust except hugging her.
Chen Qingqing finally glanced at him upright.
The next day, Li Zhi entered the palace before dawn as usual.
At noon, Yichun Palace sent someone to pass on the message, and Concubine Chun invited her brother to have tea.
Li Zhi came to Yichun Palace and found that Emperor Qingde was also there, and there were two princess nieces, and the family of four were laughing and laughing. If the only thing that made Li Zhi feel uncomfortable was the increasingly obvious wrinkles in the corners of Emperor Qingde's eyes.
All over the capital city, Li Zhi, who relied on his sister to ascend to heaven, but he didn't know that the last regret he regretted in his life was that he took his sister out for a trip that day, which caused his sister to be taken by Emperor Qingde and could not help but enter the palace.
An old man who is nearly thirty years older than his sister, even as an emperor, is not worthy of his only sister.
"I have met the emperor, empress."
Li Zhi stepped forward calmly, and he saluted with a gentle and humble smile on his face, just like before.
Emperor Qingde held the two-year-old third princess and said with a smile: "No gift, Zhongchang sit down quickly, the second princess has been muttering about you for a long time."
Li Zhi stood up straight and his eyes turned directly to the second princess.
The second princess said happily: "Uncle, my father said that he would take us to the palace for summer next month. Will my uncle take my aunt with us?"
Li Zhi looked at Emperor Qingde in surprise.
Emperor Qingde nodded and said, "I have been living in the palace for a long time. It's time to go out to exercise my muscles and bones, and enjoy the scenery of the grassland."
Li Zhi understood that several tribes on the grassland have been ready to move in the past two years. The main purpose of Emperor Qingde's trip was actually to shock the grassland tribes.
"The second princess invites each other warmly, and I will definitely take my wife with me." Li Zhi said with a smile.
Concubine Chun instructed: "The wind on the grassland is strong, and it will be cold in the morning and evening in summer. I have a few good ingredients here. Let me take them back to my sister-in-law."
Li Zhi bent down and saluted: "Thank you, Empress."
Concubine Chun sighed: "It's a pity that my grandmother is old, otherwise..."
Emperor Qingde couldn't bear the sorrow of his beloved concubine, and immediately said, "In fact, the official path is stable, and your grandmother is healthy, so it's okay to go."
Concubine Chun shook her head and smiled, "I appreciate the emperor's good wishes for my grandmother, but let her stay at home."
