The Empress Dowager said solemnly: "Your Majesty has just ascended the throne, how can you let him sink into this matter?"

Even if there was a precedent for the first dynasty, the empress dowager still didn't want this to happen to the new emperor, after all, it was very easy to cause the palace maid to get pregnant, and once the palace maid was pregnant, things would become complicated. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The harem is a place where it is easy to give birth to right and wrong, and this kind of thing can especially add fuel to the fire.

As the empress dowager, she doesn't want to see the emperor caught up in these messes.

Nan Jia hurriedly said: "The Queen Mother is high. The slave was ashamed. ”

The Queen Mother slowly got up and said, "Go back to the bedroom." ”

Nanjia hurriedly stepped forward to help her go.

The sky gradually darkened, and the Queen Mother looked at the courtyard under the sunset while walking, and suddenly felt empty in her heart.

Since the death of the first emperor, she has lived a lonely life.

But she's not yet forty years old.

The new emperor was busy with political affairs, and sometimes he only came to Ciqing Palace once a day, and he always asked An and then picked some important things to talk about and left in a hurry. She suddenly felt a loneliness that penetrated deep into her bones, and the expression on her face became sad.

Seeing this, Nan Jia hurriedly comforted: "Queen Mother, loneliness is temporary, and in another year or two, after Your Majesty and the Empress have a little prince, you can live a life of teasing your grandson." ”

But she wasn't even forty years old at the time.

For women, this is actually the time when they are most inseparable from men.

The Queen Mother sighed sadly and did not reply.

After the emperor returned to the Yinghua Hall from the Empress Dowager's side, he immediately continued to review the recital.

In the evening of midsummer, the weather was still very hot and dry, and the clothes on the emperor's back were soon soaked with sweat. Father-in-law Liu hurriedly came over to fan him.

Finally seized the opportunity for His Majesty to rest halfway, and Gonggong Liu said cautiously: "Your Majesty, the booklet from the remote area will arrive tomorrow." ”

He saw that the emperor's brows were deeply locked during the whole process when he reviewed the folds, so he couldn't help but sigh with relief.

If the girl surnamed Liu had not yet been engaged, her name would have appeared in the booklet to be handed over tomorrow.

Since the people sent to Minzhou to inquire would obviously not be able to come back so quickly, tomorrow's news would be decisive for the emperor.

After hearing Liu's words, the emperor only said "um" softly, and did not say anything.

In fact, his heart was more nervous than anyone else.

What if the girl's name doesn't appear in tomorrow's booklet......

He couldn't imagine what would happen to him if that were the case.

But after all, as the king of a country, he can't lose the majesty of a monarch for the sake of a woman, so he skillfully hides his thoughts.

After thinking about it, the emperor said, "Let's go to the Taimiao with you later." ”

Taimiao is the place where the emperor worships his ancestors, and if the emperor wants to go, it will inevitably alarm the people in the palace, so Liu Gonggong hurriedly asked: "Does Your Majesty want to go and worship the ancestors?"

If so, we would have to quickly notify the people of several ministries to prepare, but now it has reached this point......

The emperor waved his hand and said, "Don't alarm anyone, just the two of us." He looked at the sky outside and said, "I'll go when it's all dark." ”

That's just going to go out there.

Gonggong Liu breathed a sigh of relief, nodded respectfully, and said, "Okay." ”

As soon as it was dark, the emperor set out.

Gonggong Liu followed step by step with the lamp.

Walking across the jade bridge over the moat, the main gate of the Taimiao was in front of him, and the emperor quickened his pace.

The guards guarding the gate of the Taimiao Temple hurriedly knelt down on one knee when they saw that it was the emperor.

The emperor said, "I want to go in and have a look, so I don't need to arrange for someone to follow." ”

They hurriedly opened the door.

Entering the main entrance of the temple, what comes into view is several ancient cypress trees with a history of hundreds of years, they are vigorous and clumsy, saga and upright, as if the old man who has experienced thousands of years of wind and frost, which makes people feel a little respectful.

The Emperor stopped in front of an ancient cypress, reached out and touched its well-textured trunk, and then walked on.

Father-in-law Liu hurriedly trotted to follow.

The stars gradually hung in the sky, and the gardens and small lakes in the temple also heard the sound of insects.

The emperor walked briskly past a half-moon-shaped wooden bridge and walked up the steps to the front hall.

The whole temple is divided into three parts: the front hall, the middle hall and the apse. The front hall is used for large sacrifices, the middle hall is divided into ten rooms, which enshrine the shrines of the ten emperors and queens, and the apse enshrines some jade books and jade treasures of the first emperors.

The emperor knelt straight in front of the worship seat in the front hall and prayed with his palms folded.

Gonggong Liu had no way of knowing what the young monarch was praying for, but judging from the monarch's pious demeanor, it was clear that he was praying for something important to the monarch. Father-in-law Liu suddenly thought of the girl surnamed Liu, and couldn't help but feel shocked.

Could it be that the monarch is begging the ancestors to bless him from marrying her?

Gonggong Liu looked at the emperor intently, and was also attracted by his piety for a while.

The young monarch kept his eyes closed and silently recited his wish in his heart, and the more he read it, the more energetic he became, and then he felt a little out of his body.

In a trance, a woman's delicate and beautiful face appeared in front of his eyes, this was a familiar face, so beautiful that it made his heart ache.

Then he felt the face approaching him, little by little, with great shyness.

He seemed to smell her body odor and feel her body temperature.

She smiled at him, a smile that made his heart flutter. He couldn't help but lean forward and slowly moved closer to her cherry lips. She seemed to be a little panicked and tried to twist her head away, but he suddenly reached out and pinched her chin, so that her head could not move, and then leaned over to her lips with a smile.

Just when he was about to kiss him, he suddenly heard Gonggong Liu cough dryly, and suddenly the whole person was agitated and opened his eyes suddenly.

"What are you coughing up for?" grumbled the young king.

Fang is obviously going to kiss her.

Gonggong Liu coughed a few more times, blushed and said, "The slave had an itchy throat just now, I really didn't mean it." ”

Emperor Fangcai's attitude when he closed his eyes and walked forward was too lingering, so that Gonggong Liu, a man who had lived for more than fifty years and had a foot thick skin for himself, couldn't help but blush, and couldn't help coughing dryly.

The emperor was interrupted by his longing, and he was suddenly in a state of interest, so he had to stand up angrily and walk to the apse with his feet raised.

From the front hall to the apse, one needs to pass through a small lake, and across both sides of the small lake is a half-moon shaped wooden bridge.

The Emperor stood still on the bridge, looked up at the twinkling stars in the sky, and once again fell into an infinite reverie.

After a while, the emperor said faintly, "Looking at those stars, I think of her smiling face, and I want to reach out and touch it, isn't it ridiculous?"

Gonggong Liu immediately put away his smile and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, as long as your heart is sincere enough, there is no wish that cannot be achieved." ”

"Do you think it is still possible for me to marry that girl, then?" asked the Emperor, turning his head at him.

The darkness of the night hid the blush on the young monarch's face.

Gonggong Liu pondered for a moment and replied respectfully: "Of course it is possible." ”

"Thank you!" a smile appeared on the emperor's face, and he said softly, "I hope to accept your words." ”
