16. Benevolent government

"Niangniang, Niangniang, are you alright? So pale? Seeing that my expression was wrong, Mama Li was so frightened that she hurriedly stood up, "It's all because of my bad old health, I shouldn't bring up such a bloody thing in front of my mother again." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm a little sick to my stomach now after drinking, I'm a little tired, Zhu'er should come back, you go down first." I smiled at Mama Li and said, "In the future, do a good job for me, the girls in this palace are too young and need an older mama like you to take them." ”

Mama Li blessed her body, "Niangniang can rest assured, even if you don't say it, the old body must do your best." ”

I smiled and nodded to send her out, and then sat on the chair for a long time without moving, and when it was time to hold the lamp, Zhu'er came back, and saw me sitting under the lamp in a daze, and couldn't help laughing, "Niangniang left the table early in the morning, everyone guessed that she went back with the emperor, and said behind her back that the emperor loves Niangniang, why is she sitting here alone?" ”

"I'm going back with the emperor, the emperor has something to do here, I'll come back and sit for a while. What, is the wedding lively? ”

"It's hilarious! Why isn't it lively? I heard that there will be fireworks at night, I wanted to watch the fireworks for a while, but I thought that my mother was alone in the palace, so I hurried back. When the mother officially performs the canonization ceremony, even if she doesn't move to a larger palace, there will definitely be new people in this palace. Zhu'er laughed.

I shook my head and said, "No, it's enough for you and Bao'er to alternate with me, I don't want others to be tied here." ”

Zhu'er pursed her lips and smiled, "What Niangniang said is still naΓ―ve, if you don't call, in the future, the emperor will come to rest in the future, don't you want to call him?" ”

I took a sip, "It's all because I usually treat you too leniently, and now they're climbing on top of me one by one, what do you say?" Be careful I tear your mouth. ”

Zhu'er smiled and flashed and said, "Tear it up, a noble concubine, tearing the mouth of the palace daughter is nothing." ”

I shook my head helplessly, so I had to give up. After arguing with Zhu'er for a while, the gloom in my heart finally got rid of a little, and I washed up and lay down. I didn't want to turn off the lights, and someone knocked on the door outside, I thought it was Zhu'er, so I said, "What's the matter, I'll talk about it tomorrow." ”

The door was still pushed open, I sat up, before I could light the lamp, someone had already sat on the edge of the bed, I knew it was Zhu Di, rubbing and holding him by the moonlight outside the window, "It's so late, what are you doing here with me?" ”

"It's too late to come."

I nudged him lightly, "Not serious. ”

"What more seriousness do you need in front of your beloved concubine?" Zhu Di said, and sat up in his own wide clothes. I let go of it and said softly, "Ming'er asked Zhu'er to change to a bigger quilt, I'm used to covering small quilts by myself, and this quilt always looks small when you come." ”

Zhu Di stretched out his hand and groped on me, "It's okay, it's okay to be smaller, I can stick to you." ”

"Don't touch it, it's ticklish." I ducked in and laughed.

"It's tickle." Zhu Di muttered around my neck.

"Can't you just wait any longer and come back after the canonization ceremony?" I'm half-pushing, half-pushing.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Miss you"

……

Zhu Di wants to go to the morning court, he will get up early, I touched it early, and did not wake up Zhu'er, I boiled some millet porridge in the small kitchen, and made two refreshing side dishes, and when I brought it into the bedroom, Zhu Di had just woken up with hazy eyes, and said in a little confusion, "Why did you get up so early?" ”

"I'll make you breakfast." I walked over to the bed and picked up his clothes for him, "Put on your clothes and eat." ”

Zhu Di suddenly smiled on his face, and opened his arms at my mercy. After I put on his clothes, Zhu'er was coming in to bring me face wash, and when I saw Zhu Di sitting in front of the bed, I was so frightened that I dropped the washbasin directly to the ground. The ground was full of water, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt on the ground, "The emperor, the emperor, ......"

Zhu Di smiled and said gently, "I came late last night, and your mother didn't let me call you, what's the matter, scared?" ”

Zhu'er saw Zhu Di and Shun, and she was better, "No, no, the slave maid will go and fetch a basin of water to wipe the emperor's face." ”

"Go ahead, hurry." I said to Pearls with a smile.

Zhu'er hurriedly went to get a basin of hot water again, put a towel handle, I took it to my hand, wiped Zhu Di's face, and brought him tooth powder for him to rinse his mouth before pulling him to the table, "Come, I made these by myself." ”

I thought Zhu Di was going to be moved, but I didn't expect him to frown, "There are so many good cooks in the palace, why do you bother to waste food." ”

I almost didn't put the millet porridge in my hand down, and said angrily, "Ah, you say that, don't eat it." ”

Zhu Di took the porridge bowl and said with a smile, "I'm kidding you, look at your hurry." I'm afraid that your body is not strong, you should cultivate well, and you have to be busy when you get up so early, why bother? As he spoke, he drank all the rice porridge in his hand, "Another bowl." ”

I saw that he was in a good mood, so I cautiously tested, "The two Tie family girls we met yesterday, I don't know what will happen......

Zhu Di stopped the chopsticks that were holding the vinegar cucumber, glanced at me, and said, "Although Tiexian is stubborn and offends me, he is worthy of being a loyal and courageous person, but he just followed the wrong person, if he followed me, he would not get such an end." ”

"Even you praise him, he must be a good man."

"What do you want to say?" Zhu Di simply put down his chopsticks and stared at me.

I bit my lip and said after a long time, "I heard that Tie Xian's wife, sister and two daughters have been admitted to the official education department, and his wife and sister are unwilling to be humiliated and have committed suicide, and now only the two girls we met yesterday are left." This family is an unyielding person, and the two girls can't make a big deal, and the emperor is not as good as ......"

"I've already asked someone to let go of those two girls, and let the official media find a scholarly family for each of them to marry." Zhu Di took the porridge newly sent by Zhu'er, scooped it with a spoon and put it in his mouth, squinting at me and said casually.

My eyes widened, "Really?!" ”

"As soon as I came back yesterday, I already did it. Iron String's corpse was also lowered from the noon gate. Hopefully, his people will learn to be grateful. Zhu Di said, already stood up, picked up a bright yellow embroidered dragon silk handkerchief and wiped his mouth, "I'm done, it's time to go to court, you stay obediently for a while." With that, he bent down and kissed me lightly on the forehead, touched my head, and left.

After Zhu'er saw Zhu Di leave, she dared to walk in, and said with a smile while cleaning up, "Ah, I didn't even know that the emperor came last night, I really slept to death." But the emperor and the mother are really in love! ”

I bowed my head and smiled silently. After a long time, I got up and got familiar with dressing.

On the third day, Bao'er returned to the door, dressed as a new daughter-in-law, and combed her hair in a neat bun, I circled around her and said with a smile, "I'm married to the right person." ”

Bao'er also smiled shyly, "Brother Sanbao treats me very well." ”

"That's good."

"Niangniang, I won't stay today, and I will continue to serve you."

I exclaimed, "How's that going to work!" You're just getting married, and you're going to come back to do things, and if you don't have that reason, you're at least going to have your honeymoon. ”

"Honeymoon?" Bao'er and Zhu'er on the side were confused and looked at me strangely.

I patted my head, "I mean, at least a month in charge of the new home, and then come back after the addiction of being a housewife." Why hurry back and serve? ”

Bao'er hurriedly said, "This is what I discussed with Brother Sanbao, and besides, he also has things to do with the emperor, even if I go back, I am alone at home." ”

"Oh, so that's the case, I said, if it weren't for the husband's absence, I'm afraid I wouldn't be willing to come back to accompany my lonely master." I laughed.

Bao'er's face was flushed and she didn't want to speak.

"Hey, why is the emperor so puzzled, Sanbao is just three days of marriage, will he send people out?" I asked as if I had suddenly remembered something.

"That's right." Bao'er put her mouth to my ear and whispered, "Someone has secretly reported that Emperor Jianwen may still be in the world and has gone to Nanyang, so the emperor wants to send Brother Sanbao to investigate this matter." ”

I mumbled, "Don't say it." ”

"Don't worry, I knew that the emperor would not hide it from Niangniang, so I mentioned it to Niangniang."

Queen Xu Yunhua was cut off because of her eldest brother Xu Huizu, and people were also sluggish, and she was much lazy about palace affairs. In order to let the harem have a leader, Zhu Di wanted to quickly carry out my canonization ceremony, and it was better to assist in the affairs of the harem earlier. I excused him several times, but he still insisted, and finally said to me, "Ah Yi, I just want you to be a pure and happy concubine, but now is not the time for you to be comfortable." I know that the affairs of the harem are hard to manage, but I don't dare to hand it over to anyone else except Yunhua. Do you know, now that I am the emperor, every concubine in the harem has a mother's family, and no one can gain power if they pull the whole body, otherwise the harem will interfere in politics, and the court will be in chaos. Although Yunhua is sometimes stubborn and a little selfish, but in this regard, I believe that she is still towards me, and I don't believe in the rest, and now she is not happy because of Xu Huizu's matter, and only you can help me a little. You can't shirk. ”

Hearing him say this, I finally agreed, "But the queen mother just can't figure it out for a while, when she is better, I still have to leave everything to her." ”
