Hearing the words "emperor" in her mind, Shu E's hand trembled slightly, and she hurriedly put the brocade silk into her sleeve. Shu E didn't know where to get the strength again, so she hurriedly stood up and straightened her skirt, wiping away the tears left in the corners of her eyes. Maybe it's because I've been depressed and sad in my heart for too long, but when I walk out of the road, my nose is still involuntarily inhaling rapidly, as if I am still sobbing slightly.

The emperor stood in the thin sunlight of the autumn evening, and his pale yellow clothes also had a thin and hazy light.

It seems that it is still the day when the saint and the emperor first saw the emperor in Qingshou Palace, the winter snow has not yet disappeared, and in the thin light of early spring, the emperor's figure is also with such a hazy light.

It seems that it is still the afternoon of the Qianyuan Festival in the bitter bamboo forest, the emperor suddenly came from the forest, the emperor stretched out his hand and hugged his crumbling self, at that time, the sunshine of midspring was covered by the bamboo branches and bamboo leaves above his head into a wisp of fine pieces, and then cast on the emperor's body, but also let the emperor's figure with such a hazy meaning.

The slight surprise in Shu E's heart did not appear on her face, but she sighed alone in her heart, how can it seem that it has been so long, with a relative affection for the skin, with a sea vow and a mountain alliance and a mandarin pillow to sleep with, but it is still like never seeing the person in front of him clearly, close at hand, but he feels so far away and so close.

Shu E stepped forward to salute, but unintentionally avoided the fingertips of the emperor's outstretched hand. There was a wisp of the usual smile on the face of the palace concubine at the corner of her mouth, "Why is the emperor here?" ”

The emperor's expression was very anxious, he looked at the corners of Shu E's eyebrows and eyes, and asked with concern, "What's wrong?" ”

Shu E shook her head, tried to make a smile, and said, "It's okay." On the other hand, he staggered the position opposite the emperor as if unintentionally, and as if unintentionally, he reached out and pressed the thing in his sleeve.

Hua Fu came in the morning and held Shu E's arm, Shu E didn't dare to look directly into the emperor's eyes, just held Hua Fu's hand, and said with a smile: "Niang Niang is resting at this time, and when it is time for dinner, the emperor will come to see Niang Niang again." Seeing that the emperor stretched out his hand to hold his hand, Shu E hurriedly saluted and said, "Today is a busy day, and the concubine wants to go back to Yong'an Hall." ”

The emperor seemed to carefully examine Shu E's face, and when he heard Shu E say this, he hurriedly said: "Since this is the case, I will send you back." Is there really nothing wrong with you with the Queen Mother? ”

Shu E looked at the emperor's concern, smiled slightly, and said: "Niangniang will ask you again, and she asked me again, but I didn't say it, which made Niangniang angry." ”

The emperor's expression was very strange, and the steps he was walking stopped, and he reached out to hold Shu E's hand and said, "Is the queen mother angry?" What did she ask you? Today-" The emperor glanced at the Qingshou Palace behind him, and continued to say to Shu E: "The queen mother has not seen me......"

Although Shu E's heart was chaotic, her thoughts were still turning quickly, and she hurriedly looked back at Hua Fu when she heard the words.

Hua Fu also understood what Shu E meant, and her face became very solemn, and she stepped forward and said: "Mama Liuquan did tell me that the Queen Mother has already met the third young grandmother and the emperor, and she wants to invite you to go." ”

Shu E nodded slowly and said, "Mama Liuquan said this, this is also what the Queen Mother meant. ”

The emperor didn't understand yet, but just held Shu E's hand and asked, "What is it for?" ”

Shu E was a little strange and asked, "Didn't the queen send someone to inform the emperor?" ”

When meeting Shang Wanyun in Qingshou Palace in the morning, the Queen Mother revealed the intention of sealing Shang Wanyun. At that time, Shu E saw the queen's worried look, even if she knew that the emperor had sealed the third young master and the monk Wanyun, the queen mother still didn't know about the queen, and the queen didn't know about the queen mother.

Shu E knew that the emperor not only instructed himself not to explain the matter of sealing to the queen mother, but also instructed others. It's just that looking at the queen mother's look at that time, the queen was also worried in her heart, so the queen and Shu E made eye contacts, meaning that the emperor would be notified.

However, the emperor was never notified by the queen, nor was he summoned by the queen mother to ask about anything.

"Discuss important matters in the court today." The emperor said.

Shu E thought for a while, nodded and said: "Yes, Niangniang told me that she had summoned the emperor and sister-in-law, so that I could have a preconceived impression in my heart, so that I could tell Niangniang about the matter of Cao's mansion the day before yesterday." ”

After a pause, looking at the emperor's calm expression, he continued: "Today, Niangniang summoned my new sister-in-law Shang Wanyun into the palace, and when chatting, Niangniang knew that my brother was not in the house on the day of his wedding. Since the emperor has not been summoned-" Shu E looked at Hua Fu and said, "It should be that my sister-in-law didn't know, and finally said it." ”

The emperor listened to Shu E's words, but there was a warm smile on his face, and he held Shu E's hand with both hands and said, "The queen mother is angry with you for this matter? I think it was because she gave her a marriage, but the house was negligent and didn't report back to her in time. Wait for me to explain to the queen mother. Saying that, he sighed in a deep voice, frowned slightly, and said softly to Shu E: "After you returned to the house, the queen mother's body was very poor, and she didn't go to the ground for more than ten days after returning to the palace from Yujin Garden. It was only around the Mid-Autumn Festival that the condition finally improved. ”

Shu E's eyes were slightly red, and she sighed: "Niangniang's body is uneasy, but I didn't serve by the side for a day, but today I still made her angry." ”

The emperor patted the back of Shu E's hand and comforted: "I'm also worried about her body, so-"

The emperor's eyes swept to Hua Fu's side, Hua Fu understood, and was busy retreating, no longer approaching.

"Li Yuanhao's ambition, you went to the summer land, you may not have seen some of it." The emperor whispered in Shu E's ear: "Taking the opportunity of marrying Princess Xingping to the Liao State, leading troops through the border of the Great Song Dynasty, and secretly raising troops in this method that is not easy to attract people, its intention is really suspicious. ”

Shu E nodded: "The emperor is afraid that the Queen Mother will be worried about hearing these things when she is sick." ”

The emperor continued: "Li Yuanhao led a large number of soldiers and grass forward, but he has not shown the slightest disrespect to our court. If I recklessly use troops to suppress it, I will become an unprovoked teacher to ask for guilt, but then it will not hurt the subordinate relationship between the Great Song Dynasty and the party. Li Yuanhao and his father Li Jiqian have quite a lot of armor in their hands, and they will definitely take the opportunity to provoke and invade our border. ”

"Besides, when the time comes, Liaoxia and Xia will become a country of marriage, and Liaoxia will not stop fighting, right?" Shu E said softly.

Shu E felt a heavy meaning in the emperor's hand, presumably the emperor was already very worried about this matter, so she held the emperor's hand and added two weights.
