After not seeing each other for many days, Du Shi has been reluctant to let Cai Wei go, and Cai Wei also wants to see her father and younger siblings, so she has been staying in Mu Mansion until her father and younger siblings come back.

When Mu Zhongqing was in the Hanlin Academy, he had already heard that Cai Wei and the emperor had returned, and had rectified the dynasty and cleaned up General Li and his henchmen, Mu Zhongqing was very happy in his heart, his son-in-law's country was preserved, and his daughter and their family were safe.

expected that his daughter would definitely come back today to save her relatives, and when he came back in the evening, he specially called someone to find his daughter's henchman Liu Xi. Liu Xi has won the trust of her daughter and is a woman's first confidant, and her daughter must be happy to see him.

Liu Xi is now the gentleman of the women's college, specializing in teaching the daughters of various provinces Arabic arithmetic, his teaching method is humorous and witty, and those who are upright and full of mouths are completely different, and are deeply loved by the daughters, has become a big celebrity in the women's academy, and has become the dream lover of many ladies who have never seen the world.

Of course, before this, he had already taught the Arabic arithmetic to Mu Zhongqing, and according to the emperor's instructions, Mu Zhongqing was the founder of the Arabic arithmetic.

Mu Zhongqing was very ashamed of his merits, and resolutely refused the emperor's kindness of appointing him as a member of the third grade, but it was not good to completely refuse his son-in-law's filial piety to him, so he had to cheekily accept the position of a bachelor from the Hanlin Academy of the fifth grade, specializing in teaching Arabic arithmetic to the children of the official family; Du Shi was also named the pleasant of the five grades, and it can be regarded as a wife with a title, and she can often wear the clothes of Mrs. Decree to go out to socialize and walk around, no matter where she goes, even if it is the prime minister's mansion, she will be sought after and complimented by those ladies, and even Mrs. Yipin Guo has to look at her face and please her.

Du Shi naturally knew why everyone was so respectful and polite to her, so she was low-key and humble, and she was cautious in her speech, lest she do something bad, slap her daughter in the face, and pull her back.

When Liu Xi saw Cai Wei, his eyes were red with excitement, and when he saw him, he said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "I've been running for so long and every message, did you elope with a man?" ”

Cai Wei was naturally happy to see Liu Xi, and she didn't pay attention to Liu Xi's poisonous tongue, so she only whispered: "I heard that you have been a gentleman in the women's college recently, how are you?" It doesn't feel good to be in the midst of flowers, but you can't do it, right? ”

The corners of Liu Xi's mouth twitched wildly, and he whispered with a dark face: "Can you not always squeeze me with this?" ”

Cai Wei said: "Success!" As he spoke, a pair of eyes looked at his lower body.

Liu Xi was furious, looked around with a pair of eyes, and said in a low voice: "Okay, count you ruthless!" After speaking, he got up and coaxed Wen'er and Wu'er to go out to play.

Only Mu Zhongqing, Du Shi and Fei'er were left in the room, Mu Zhongqing said to him with palpitations: "Fortunately, you came back in time, if you come back one day later, the Liguo Mansion will be beheaded by the whole house, Rao is saved, I heard that the grandfather and grandchildren of the old country are not less suffering in the prison." ”

When Fei'er heard this, the handkerchief in her hand tightened, and she looked at Cai Wei nervously, wanting to hear the news of Mo Ziqi's safety from Cai Wei's mouth.

Cai Wei said: "I did suffer a little, but it didn't matter, I didn't hurt the fatal place, just raise them for a few days, the emperor has settled them in the Bishui Pavilion in the palace, and sent Yao Yuan to judge them for diagnosis and treatment, presumably it won't take long to recover." ”

Cai Fei was relieved to hear that Mo Ziqi was not worried about his life, but when he heard that he was injured, he felt distressed again, and sat there around the handkerchief, wanting to ask him how his injury was, whether it would hurt very much, but he was embarrassed to say it, and he was very worried in his heart if he didn't ask.

was worried, Cai Wei suddenly said: "Fei'er and I will go to the palace to live for a few days, I have been away from the palace for so long, and I have accumulated a lot of things, and Fei'er can help me in the past." ”

Fei'er was worried that she couldn't see Mo Ziqi, and when she heard her sister's instructions, she was in the middle of it, and she hurriedly lowered her head and said, "Yes!" Immediately, he went back to his house to pack his things and followed his sister into the palace.

When the sisters returned to the palace, it was already evening.

Fei'er is a boudoir woman, and it is not easy to meet foreign men casually, so Cai Wei ordered someone to place her in Shouxian Palace, and sent a few henchmen to take care of her, so as not to make any mistakes.

Shouxian Palace is not a gorgeous palace, but it is only a few hundred meters away from the Bishui Pavilion where the Mo family's ancestors and grandsons are recuperating from their injuries, and the purpose of Cai Wei arranging Fei'er here is naturally to facilitate Fei'er to visit Mo Ziqi to relieve Fei'er's worries.

Cai Wei returned to the imperial study, the ministers had already left, and the qiē in the imperial study had already returned to its original appearance, except for the fact that there was no chasing the wind and chasing the moon and calling Qiu, the rest of the qiē were the same as before. Nangong Yi is reviewing the recitals after the dragon case, and after leaving the palace for so long, the recitals sent by the courtiers have been backlogged, even if he doesn't sleep, he has to approve it for several days and nights.

Seeing Cai Wei coming back, Nangong Yi put down her pen and asked with concern: "Have you eaten it, I asked someone to make you your favorite duck soup, stewed winter bamboo shoots with ham, and steamed salmon, all of which are warm in the pot, and I will let them serve it to you." ”

Cai Wei had already eaten it at her mother's house, but she naturally wouldn't let down the man's thoughts, she said gently: "Have you eaten it?" Why don't we go eat together? ”

Nangong Yi pointed to the mountain of folds on the desk, and said with a smile: "There are too many backlogs, and I have no choice but to skip lunch, but you are pregnant, you shouldn't eat less for a meal, be good, you go by yourself, remember to eat more!" ”

The man was too busy to take care of eating, Cai Wei was very distressed, she entered the back room, ordered Changmei to boil a pot of Lingxi water in the space, brewed a cup of flower tea, and picked some fresh fruits, washed them and put them on a plate, and brought them to the man's dragon case with the flower tea, leaving the man to eat and drink when he was thirsty and hungry.

Cai Wei only ate a few bites of the dinner left for her, and she took the rest into the space.

The space has the function of keeping fresh, and these dishes are placed in the space and will always be as new as now

It will always be as fresh and delicious as it is now, and it will never go bad.

After eating, she didn't bother the man, but took Chunliu and quietly went to Qixia Palace, during the day, the Emperor Taishang urgently asked her to come to see him, and she promised that she would naturally not lose her trust.

At this time, in the Qixia Palace

Emperor Taishang and Li Guoshi were sitting cross-legged in front of the statue of Lao Jun, meditating and cultivating devoutly, when they heard that Cai Wei was coming, they hurriedly got up and went to the palace gate to greet them.

When he saw Cai Wei, the Emperor Taishang claimed to be a mountain man and a poor man, which meant that he was no longer the identity of the Emperor Taishang, and Cai Wei was not as respectful as the Emperor Taishang, just as he was a Taoist.

Cai Wei came, in addition to responding to the appointment of the emperor, there was also something to find Li Guoshi, so after the rudeness, Cai Wei didn't say a few words, and Cai Wei talked about her own affairs.

"Li Guoshi, Tianjizi's skull ashes are still with me, because you said before that you want to press his ashes under the ancient tower of more than a hundred years, and you have to do some waterway rituals, Cai Wei is a person in the red dust, and she has been very busy, so I don't have time to do this, so please help me and place Tianjizi's skull ashes!"

Li Guoshi agreed, and said: "The queen just bring the ashes of that old monster, that old thing deceived the teacher and destroyed the ancestors, and was full of evil, I hate to put a bubble of in his ashes, and then press him under the hundred-year-old ancient tower, put a seal, so that he will never be able to turn over." ”

Cai Wei listened, and hurriedly took out the bottle containing the ashes of Tianjizi's skull from the space and handed it to Li Chunzong.

"So, thank you, thank you!"

Li Chunzong shook the bottle, called a Taoist boy and said, "Go, throw this bottle into the toilet, soak it for seven days and seven nights to deal with it." ”

Cai Wei twitched the corners of her mouth, this old naughty boy, even if he practiced in such a solemn place every day, he didn't erase his instinct to jump out, he was really a natural tease.

The Emperor Taishang saw that Cai Wei could conjure up a large bottle at will, and he was even more in awe of Cai Wei, and after they finished discussing the treatment of Tianjizi, he cautiously interjected a sentence and said: "Queen, the mountain people have been cultivating the Fa for many years, but they have not made much progress, I don't know what good strategies the queen has, or, what kind of Taoist cultivation experience has Cihai Zhenren left behind?" ”

Cai Wei thought for a while and said, "Before the real person ascended, he did leave some classics, but this is something left by the real person, and I don't dare to give it away without permission, but it's okay to lend it to you." ”

After that, he opened his inner vision, searched around in the small room where real people meditated and practiced, and found a yellow copy of "Qimen Dunjia" and handed it to the Emperor.

Emperor Taishang hurriedly wiped his hands, took the book handed over by Cai Wei with both hands, and said with a very pious attitude: "The mountain people must sneak to study the classics left by the immortals, and after they have gained something, they will definitely return this treasure to Zhao, and they will never be greedy for ink." ”

It's just an ancient book, which is not surprising in Cai Wei's eyes, but in the eyes of the Emperor Taishang, this book is a priceless treasure, even more valuable than his Great Jin Dynasty, so when he got that book, his hands trembled, and the whole person was so excited that he almost fainted from excitement.

After getting the book, the Emperor Taishang was anxious to read the book, and he didn't have time to talk to Cai Wei again, Cai Wei saw his anxiety, so he got up and said goodbye, and retreated in a proper manner.

When he got outside, Chunliu said, "Niangniang, where are we going?" ”

Cai Wei said: "Go to Yukun Palace, I haven't asked the Queen Mother for many days, and now the Queen Mother is frightened again, go over and ask her for peace." ”

Although Chunliu was not willing to go to Yukun Palace, but the master said that she was going, she didn't dare to refute, so she had to lead Cai Wei in the direction of Yukun Palace.

In fact, Cai Wei didn't want to see Empress Dowager Mo, but she had been away from the palace for many days, and she came back rashly today, so she should explain to her, after all, she is Nangong Shi's mother, no matter what time it is, Nangong Shi can't ignore her, besides, when she heard what the old lady said, she was no longer so disgusted with Empress Dowager Mo in her heart, so after sorting out her mood, she appeared in Yukun Palace.

Unbeknownst to him, Queen Mo at this time was in a completely different mood than before.

Before, she always thought that Mu Caiwei was from a humble background and relied on her beauty to climb her son, but after seeing Cai Wei's power this morning, she deeply realized that it was not Cai Wei who climbed them, but her son who climbed Cai Wei.

With Cai Wei's ability, let alone being the queen of the Great Jin Kingdom, it is easy to dominate the world and be the empress of the world.

Before Cai Wei appeared this morning, she was desperate in her heart, and thought that the country of the Great Jin Kingdom would be destroyed in the hands of Li Kaifeng. However, she was shocked when she saw it as an invincible rival and easily folded into Caiwei's hands.

Cai Wei is so powerful, not only can she summon an indestructible divine beast, but she can also appear or disappear at will, these are just her abilities that can be seen with the naked eye, who knows what other amazing abilities she doesn't know?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but be afraid of the things she had done, thinking that she was really stupid in the past, just because she didn't like her, she didn't hesitate to give her son a trick; forced his son to stuff a woman; and humiliated her in public....

Looking back now, Cai Wei is really generous, she has done so many excessive things, she actually doesn't have the same knowledge as her, otherwise, as long as she moves her fingers casually, she will already die a few times, if she is not happy, destroying the entire Great Jin Kingdom is just an easy matter.!

A month ago, she noticed that the queen was not in the palace at all, and she had not been in the palace for a while, so she asked the emperor about it, but the emperor prevaricated.

Later, she sent two beauties over to test it, and was beaten to death by the emperor's order.

The emperor's anger surprised her, and she realized that there must be something wrong between them, so she took the role of the queen mother

The identity of the queen mother was handed down to Yi, and all states, prefectures, and counties were selected on a large scale to draft girls.

In the past, the draft was generally selected like this, most of the show girls were 10 to 13 years old innocent family girls, non-doctors, non-witches, non-businessmen and hundreds of workers, 5,000 people were selected all over the world, after strict screening, only 1,000 people could enter the palace as palace maids, after the palace maids entered the palace, the female officials ordered the palace to introduce them into the secret room to probe their breasts, smell their armpits, touch their textures, and then select 300 people as the leaders of the palace maids. After living in the palace for more than a month, according to their temperament, words and deeds, and the emperor's preferences, fifty people were selected as ladies, which belonged to the lowest concubines.

In addition to the women of good families, there are also some palace maids from bureaucratic and aristocratic families, and some bureaucrats and nobles try their best to send their daughters into the palace to seek the emperor's favor, so that the whole family can climb up by virtue of nepotism. At that time, among the fifty ladies, there were indeed a few favorite concubines, such as Huo Xian, the mother of King Jing, who was selected into the palace in this way.

However, this is all the old emperor's calendar in the past, and now the draft girl, Queen Mu has made a new regulation, the selected show girl only needs to be in good health and excellent quality, and the rest of the background, appearance or something, can be completely ignored.

Empress Dowager Mo didn't think so, because the draft was not only to serve as an envoy in the palace, but also to become the emperor's concubine.

Externally, her explanation for this draft is that most of the palace maids in the palace were released by the queen before, and after this year, many palace maids have reached the age of eighteen, and they have also reached the age of being released from the palace, and they will release a batch again.

And her actual idea is that while Queen Mu is away, she will choose a few gentle and beautiful people to put next to the emperor, although the emperor favors the queen alone, but what good things are eaten too much, there are times when she is tired of eating, the emperor is facing her every day, and sooner or later there will be a day of fatigue, and those palace maids are all the age of flowers, fresh and fresh, shaking in front of the emperor all day long, she doesn't believe that the emperor can hold it, and will always guard her alone.

Taking a step back, even if the emperor guards the queen forever, those palace maids who are selected can at least add a little blockage to her, disgusting and disgusting her.

When she thought that after she came back, she found that she was surrounded by beautiful women and looked angry, and her heart was extremely comfortable, as if all the evil spirits she had suffered from the queen in the past had been vented.

However, this idea disappeared after seeing Cai Wei clean up Li Kaifeng.

Now, not only did she not dare to make any more mistakes, but she even regretted the draft decree she had issued, she knew that this daughter-in-law was so powerful, she would obediently be a good mother-in-law, why bother to make her son unhappy, her daughter-in-law was dissatisfied, and she looked in the mirror, not a person inside and out!

Hey, I'll have to think of a way to explain it to my daughter-in-law later.

Cai Wei came in, she was wearing a yellow gold silk round neck eight phoenix peony pattern robe, the collar was also inlaid with mink fur at the cuffs, the robe was long to the feet, inside was a vermilion long skirt, wearing a red jade dripping bead crested hairpin on her head, a small phoenix hairpin on each sideburn, folding silk silk palace flowers, red gold inlaid ruby pomegranate earrings, and a pair of red jade bracelets on her wrist, dressed very formally, different from her usual simple dressing style, it can be seen that she attaches great importance to meeting her mother-in-law, and does not despise her mother-in-law.

Empress Dowager Mo was very satisfied, not to mention that Cai Wei came to see her ceremoniously, even in casual clothes, she didn't dare to find fault with her.

Cai Wei saluted the Empress Dowager Mo in accordance with the rules, and said: "The concubine has been away from the palace for many days, and today I have come to ask the queen mother to say goodbye, and by the way, I will tell the queen mother where the concubine has been going these days." ”

Empress Dowager Mo said politely: "Get up quickly, it's good to come back, thank God you came back in time, and finally didn't let Li Kaifeng's wolf ambitions succeed, as for where did you go with the emperor?" That's a matter for you little couples, so you don't have to tell me. ”

Cai Wei was taken aback when she heard this, she thought that Empress Dowager Mo would aggressively ask her where she had been in the past few months, and she had made up the reason for her absence, but she didn't expect that she didn't want to ask or want to hear it.

She carefully observed Empress Dowager Mo and found that she was not talking angrily, but looking at her very sincerely, with a little more love in her eyes.

Cai Wei was secretly happy in her heart, it turned out that after a thrilling morning experience, the Queen Mother had accepted her as a daughter-in-law, and no longer targeted her and excluded her, which made her feel very happy, although she didn't care about Queen Mother's attitude towards her, but she couldn't care less about her man's affection, and if she could get along with his mother, the man would be very pleased even if he didn't say it.

She smiled and said modestly: "Even if the queen mother doesn't want to listen, the concubine wants to nag with you, and after being away from home for so long, no one has said anything to the concubine." ”

This sentence suddenly narrowed the distance between the two people, and when Empress Dowager Mo saw Cai Wei like this, her always indifferent face burst into a smile, and she said, "Say it, the queen mother listens..." ”

Cai Wei sat next to the Empress Dowager Mo, and said what she had arranged in advance, she said that she went to Xianbei to kill Queen Ji Ya, but she did not say that she was abducted by Saknu, only said that Ji Ya was not aggressive, she fought with her for several months, and then killed her as she wished, and by the way, she also went to Liaodan and arrested Nangong Shi to prevent future troubles.

The plots of these stories have been simplified by Cai Wei again and again, but hearing the ears of Empress Dowager Mo still thrills her.

Think about it, riding a tiger for thousands of miles, breaking into the palace of Xianbei alone, and following a body of evil magic

Queen Jiya, who was full of evil magic, rushed to Liaodan to capture Nangong Shi......

Every one of these things is more difficult for ordinary people than climbing to the sky, but she did it easily, which is really ...... Appalling!

In fact, Cai Wei said these things to her, she didn't mean to deter her or scare her, she just wanted to explain the reason why she left the palace, so as not to make her cranky, but as a result, she was scared by the crooked beating, and when she looked at Cai Wei, she actually showed a look of awe.

Suddenly, she thought of the deadly draft again, and she hurriedly explained to Cai Wei.

"Now that a year has passed, there are many palace maids who have reached the age of being released, and the palace maids have been released once last year, and the number is already insufficient, and there will be fewer people when they are released again this year. Bengong thought that if there were few people in the palace, it would seem deserted and unpopular, so he ordered the draft, but it happened that you came back, so I will leave this matter to you. ”

Cai Wei is not exclusive to the draft, because in her heart, the draft is to choose the palace maid and the waiter for the palace, even if the Empress Dowager Mo does not Zhang Luo, she will also Zhang Luo. Therefore, after Empress Dowager Mo taught her this, she did not have the slightest disgust, but accepted it happily.

Seeing that she was not angry, the stone in her heart fell, and she chatted with her.

"Queen, the daughter of Prime Minister Ning's family is still in the palace, the palace thinks that since the emperor has no intention of her, it is better to let her out, anyway, she is just a palace maid, and if she is released with this batch of eighteen-year-old palace maids, others will not say anything."

Cai Weiyan smiled insincerely: "The concubine saw that she had a deep affection for the emperor before, and she originally wanted to promote their good deeds, but she thought that the emperor insisted on refusing, this kind of thing, the concubine is not too reluctant, so she had to give up." ”

Empress Dowager Mo hurriedly said: "You can be gentle with your husband, it is naturally excellent, but she has no ability to attract the emperor, so let her out, I won't worry about you in the future, let you live by yourself." ”

The implication is that she will no longer stuff people around Nangong Yi, but Ning Huaixiu is the palace she enters as the master, and she naturally wants to make up for it, so she strongly advocates letting Ning Huaixiu out.

Cai Wei didn't want Ning Huaixiu to leave, she had been away from the palace for more than two months, and the backlog of things in the harem in the past few months was almost piled up, and she also pointed to Ning Huaixiu to help her share the burden!

……

In the past few months, Ning Huaixiu has been staying in the house where she lives after saying that she is in a good manner, even if Cai Wei is no longer there, she did not take the initiative to go to the emperor's side once, when the general of the protector blocked the palace, he wanted to send her back to the Prime Minister's mansion, in order to show favor to Prime Minister Ning Cheng and pull Prime Minister Ning Cheng into his camp, but Ning Huaixiu categorically refused.

The queen is kind to her and values her, if she leaves at this time, it will undoubtedly betray the queen and live up to the queen's heart for her, so she insists on staying.

In the evening, Cai Wei sent someone to call her to the east room of the imperial study, and when she saw Cai Wei, Ning Huaixiu knelt on the ground with excitement as if she had seen a relative, and said with a crying voice: "Niangniang, you are finally back, great, the slave maid thought that she would never see you again in this life......

Seeing her like this, Cai Wei ordered Chunliu to help her up and said with a smile: "What's so good about me coming back?" There are so many things backlogged in the harem, and some of them have been busy these days, so they have to call you again. ”

Ning Huaixiu said sincerely: "As long as the mother can be safe, the slave and maid will be tired to death, and they will be willing to eat." ”

Cong Cai Wei sighed: "A good daughter's family, as well as a good youth and future, don't always say anything about life and death, remember, to live, live well, live to have a qiē, if you die, there will be nothing......"

Ning Huaixiu didn't know what the queen meant by saying this to her, but the queen was already very grateful to her for saying such heartfelt words to her, and after kowtowing to the queen respectfully, she got up and dealt with the harem affairs with the queen together.
