I made up my mind and confessed to my mother that Li Sheng had taken me out. At this point, his mother and Li Sheng are already incompatible.

My father may not know about this situation, Li Sheng may not know, Wei Huan may not know, but I am afraid that even my mother herself may not know - this is probably the only benefit that the crossing has brought me, although I don't know the details of these histories, but I remember a general direction, and then push forward from this direction, so I know many things that others may not know. The rest of the people, who may be vaguely aware of the contradiction between themselves, will never think that the contradiction has reached such a field.

Whether in public or private, I always hope that my mother will win. Yu Gong, although Li Sheng is an excellent prince, his mother is an emperor of the past and the present. It is good to keep the king, but the emperor of the ages is the hope for the prosperity of the country. In private, Li Sheng's attitude towards harmony really stung me. Now that I can be sent out to be married, what will happen to me in the future, if anything else happens to my future colt, or if he needs to use my princess name in any place? I am completely unsure of any of this, so even though it is selfish to do so, I have decided to think of myself first. Wei Huan is right, the reason why I am still in the mood to consider those homeless people is purely because it is none of my business. When it was really about myself, between others and myself, I still chose myself.

I was ashamed of myself for being like this, but I still walked to the Zhenguan Hall without hesitation, and there was some hesitation when I waited for the summons, but it was too late to regret it at this time, and my mother sent someone to tell me to go straight into the inner sanctum, she was wearing a light-colored spring veil, and her dress was half open, and she was copying a notebook with a pen. Wan'er and Tuan'er stood beside her one on the left and one right, Tuan'er held a handkerchief and other things, but Wan'er didn't take anything, both of them looked at her mother's calligraphy intently, with a slight admiration on their faces, and when I came in, they turned back and saluted me. Tuan'er said with a smile: "The princess came just in time, come and see the words written by the lady, the concubine only thinks it is good, but she can't say how it is good, the princess reads from the masters, she must know where the good is." ”

Tuan'er said this beautifully, and praised me and my mother as one, but I don't want me to be lazy all the time, although I have been learning regular script, seal script and flying white from the palace teaching doctor and the waiters, but now only the regular script can barely read, seal book and flying white is not to think about it, my mother is here today is the seal book, I don't even recognize it, where does the evaluation come from? My mother also knew about this, so after writing a pen, she raised her eyes and smiled at me, if it was usual, I must be glaring at her, or making fun of her, today because of something in my heart, but I only arched my hand and said: "My son is only shallow in learning, and I don't know what my mother is here." ”

My mother raised her eyes slightly, glanced at me, put the pen back, and said lightly, "Put it away." ”

Tuan'er and Wan'er both went to collect the scroll, Tuan'er grabbed it first, Wan'er glanced at her and said, "Sister Wei, be careful, the ink is not dry, don't roll it up." ”

Tuan'er smiled: "Thank you Shangguan for reminding me." Carefully lift the scroll and respectfully withdraw. Wan'er put the pen and ink and other things in place, bowed to her mother, and withdrew from the hall.

When there were only the two of us in the room, my mother smiled at me, I had already considered the words when I came, but I didn't know how to speak, my mother did not urge, she sat down slowly, picked up a glass of chilled cherry syrup from the small table, and took a few sips, I made up my mind and said, "Brother... Chan refers to the crown prince... The day before yesterday, he left the palace with his ministers and went to Nanshi. When I peeked at my mother, I saw that she was only concerned about drinking water, and she was not distracted from me, so I had to continue: "There are many homeless people in Nanshi, and the prince ransomed them with money and sent them to the temple for settlement. When he came out, he talked about the use of troops for many years, and there were disasters in Guanzhong, I was afraid that the country was insufficient, so I wanted to stop the construction of Shangyang Palace in a book, and instructed the ministers to tell the scene of the displaced people they saw in front of the saint and His Majesty, hoping to get the approval of the saint and His Majesty. ”

The mother put the cup down and said slowly, "So you're here to ask for a meeting?"

I didn't look up, but I could feel my mother's burning gaze fall on the top of my head, sweat unconsciously in my palm, swallow a big mouthful of saliva, and then said with difficulty: "Minister... The minister felt that Shangyang Palace was originally built for the saint to recuperate, and the construction was suddenly stopped, which inevitably hurt the heart of filial piety, and now the two saints are sage, the law is strict, and there are occasional homeless, it is also a temporary matter. But the prince is both a half-monarch and a brother, the prince is a commander, a minister... Although he thought it was inappropriate, he didn't know what to do, so he had to... Come to report to your majesty, ask for your majesty... Ask A-Niang for a ruling. ”

It was the first time I had done such a thing, and I was ashamed and terrified, and I stammered and stammered with many panting trills. Under the careful care of my mother and the nursing mothers, although I have a heart disease, I have grown up safely until now, no matter in the palace, I have never had a major seizure, but today I only told my mother once, and I already felt that my heart was beating strangely, and the temple was not hot, but sweat seeped out of my skin, soaked in five layers of tulle, and many beads of sweat slipped down from my head and face, and fell on the dragon's beard seat, shining with a dazzling oil. I don't think I'm suitable to be an informer, but I know deep down that even if I don't be this informant, my mother must have known about the prince taking me out - she has arranged so many manpower for me, and it makes no sense to neglect to "take care" of the prince, not to mention that I said it so roughly, but my mother didn't even ask a single question, if she hadn't been familiar with the details of Li Sheng's take-out, she would never have turned a blind eye to me.

Mother didn't speak immediately, I raised my eyelids and looked forward, I could only see her hand holding the cup, the fingers were slender and white, I couldn't see that it was nearly fifty at all, she raised the glass again, and took a sip slowly, I thought she was going to speak, but she put the cup aside, got up slowly, and walked in front of me.

My legs were already weak, my body shook suddenly, my mother supported me, let me sit on the ground slowly, while untying my neatly dressed princess clothes, caressing my back for a long time, and then said softly: "Is my son afraid of Auntie?"

I looked up at her and saw that her gaze was on me when she asked this, but not at me. Unlike Li Sheng and Li Rui, I have been taken by her side and taken care of by her since I was born, just as she knows my every move well, and I am also very sensitive to her feelings. There was no look of exasperation or disappointment on her face now, the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, as if she were smiling, but I could clearly feel that she was lost. I know where this loss comes from. When I learned that Wei Huan was good at shooting, I also had this kind of loss.

I actually felt a little sympathy for my mother, reached out to hold her hand, and said softly: "My son is afraid of my mother." But no matter how afraid you are, A-Niang will always be the son-in-law's A-Niang. ”

My mother was stunned, patted my hand, and smiled: "My son will always be my mother's son." ”
