Li Huai suddenly didn't know whether he should step forward or retreat, he pestle there blankly, looked at her blankly, and two lines of hot tears fell unconsciously.

He turned around slowly, and walked away step by step, reluctantly.

He wouldn't have known, just as he turned to leave, the Queen Mother happened to look at him and recognized him at a glance, the words 'Shizi Ye' almost blurted out, but at the last moment he held back, trembling and twisting his head away.

He will come again, because politely speaking, since he has come to the palace, he will definitely come to greet her.

The Queen Mother slowly walked down the steps with a grandson in one hand, and returned to the house with a calm expression.

However, the queen mother was disappointed, and Li Huai did not come to greet her until the evening, but only asked people to bring her large bags of southern specialties and a few polite greetings.

The queen mother's heart suddenly snowed, and she wanted people to invite him several times, but in the end she still held herself back.

On this night, the Queen Mother rarely recalled her short and crazy time with Li Huai, and tears wet her pillow.

She knew that that time could only appear in her memory, how grateful she was, and how lost.

In her wonderful half of her life, the experience with Li Huai was just a small wave in her life journey, she didn't take it very seriously before, but today, she suddenly found that it had been deeply engraved into her life.

However, now that she and he have their own life sustenance, and their respective lives have entered a more fulfilling stage, those ups and downs are not necessary.

Still, she couldn't help but feel sad on this peaceful and quiet night.

The next morning, she enjoyed the performance of a new luthier in the Tianyin Palace, and when she heard the melody in the middle of it, it touched her again, and she couldn't help but miss Li Huailai, so she said to the palace maid, "Let Your Majesty, the Queen, and the Prince also come and listen to it." ”

The personal palace maid hurriedly went to invite.

In less than two quarters of an hour, Li Pei, Liu Yaoying and Li Huai came.

Li Huai walked last, and when he arrived, he immediately knelt down to the Empress Dowager and bowed respectfully.

When he knelt down, his entire upper body was prostrate on the ground, and the Queen Mother took the opportunity to take a good look at him.

His back was stronger than it had been then, and his shoulders looked wider and more intense.

The Queen Mother's already calm heart suddenly rippled, and this wave was like a magnet that made her unconsciously want to get close to him, and once again truly feel the power from him.

This thought made the Queen Mother blush, but she didn't feel much shame.

"The prince of the world, let's get even. The Queen Mother said.

"Queen Xie. Li Huai said loudly, slowly raising his head towards her.

The two of them met their eyes, and both of them couldn't help but blush, but both of them quickly covered up the past.

Li Huai sat down on the chair diagonally opposite the Empress Dowager and began to set his eyes on the piano master.

The pianist is a young woman in her twenties, with a beautiful face, elegant temperament, and a fairy aura that does not eat the world.

The beautiful face and exquisite piano skills immediately attracted Li Huai to the past.

Perhaps he wanted to dilute the powerful attraction of the Empress Dowager when she was around him, or perhaps he deliberately stimulated the Empress Dowager, Li Huai's gaze at the violinist was full of appreciation, and this appreciation was characteristic of the greed of men when they saw their prey.

The queen mother saw all this, although she knew that maybe it was his intention, but she couldn't help but feel a faint jealousy in her heart.

At this time, she had to admit that she still cared about him.

The Empress Dowager endured and admired the three songs, and then said to the three of them: "The mourning family came before you, and I enjoyed two songs alone before, plus the three songs you enjoyed after you came, and now I feel a little tired, so go back and rest first, and you continue." ”

She stood up as she spoke, but her eyes unconsciously looked at Li Huai.

Li Huai felt her gaze, but instead of looking up at her, he lowered his head and stood up to see her off.

Li Pei and Liu Yaoying also got up to see her.

Looking at her figure, Li Huai's gaze became obsessed.

The Queen Mother still maintains a slender figure, coupled with her demeanor in her gestures, which makes her back have a kind of grasping charm, so that he can't take his eyes off.

Next, he forced himself to calmly accompany Li Pei and Liu Yaoying to listen to the tune for a while, and then watched them leave.

After they left, he walked slowly to his quarters.

He was leaving Beijing tomorrow, but as before, he was particularly reluctant to let her go at this time.

This time the reluctance seems to be stronger than ever.

He hated himself a little, and hurried to his quarters.

Not far ahead, he heard two palace maids laughing and chatting under the flowers, and they didn't know what to talk about, and they looked nervous.

Li Huai heard it clearly when he got closer.

Palace maid A: "The queen mother is only in her forties, but she has been widowed for almost ten years, isn't it worse than your aunt?"

Palace maid B: "How can it be the same? Although the queen mother does not have the company of the first emperor, she is at least noble and has grandchildren, and she will not be bored at all." ”

Palace maid A: "If you are bored, you can find something to do? Why do you have to find a man? No, not only is her reputation bad now, but even her own children dislike her." ”

Palace maid B: "We are still yellow flower girls, where do we understand the thoughts of women? But when I was a child, I heard my aunt say that women after getting married, especially in the five or six years of marriage, are not very inseparable from men. The reverse is true for men. ”

Palace maid A: "That means they have to sleep on the same bed from time to time?"

Palace Maiden B: "Hmm. ”

Palace maid A: "What is the reason?"

Palace maid B: "I don't understand either, anyway, ......."

Li Huai didn't listen anymore and walked away quickly, but this time he was heading in the direction of the Empress Dowager's residence.

When he arrived at the door of Ciqing Palace, Li Huai did not hesitate and entangle like last time, but raised his hand and knocked on the door very decisively.

It was Nan Jia, the queen mother's personal palace maid, who came to open the door, she saw that it was Li Huai, first changed her expression, and then politely saluted Li Huai and said: "Lord Shizi, the queen mother is resting, do you want to come back three quarters of an hour later?"

Li Huai was afraid that he would never have the courage to come again as soon as he left this time, so he replied with a smile: "It's okay, I'll wait in the living room first." ”

Nanjia deliberately asked, "Are you in a hurry to find her?"

Li Huai: "I'm just here to say a few words to her." ”

Nanjia: "Oh, please come in, then. ”

She led him to the living room, served him tea herself, and then arranged for a palace maid to stay by his side and left.
