Empress Dowager Xiao and other concubines naturally paid attention to the appearance of this maid, but at this time, they were all relieved and exhaled lightly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Lian Zeyu looked at this face that was so nervous that it turned white, this is an ordinary girl, at most, she can only be regarded as delicate, and she can't compare to her alluring appearance; Not to mention that this little girl is unprepared and timid as a mouse...... Ah Sleeve, that is the person who dares to enter the Western Capital to sing opera.

How could he look for the shadow of this little girl who had long since passed?

At this moment, Lian Zeyu had no desire to inquire at all.

He waved his hand, and his father-in-law said, "Stand down." ”

Lian Zeyu suddenly remembered something, and said, "Stop." ”

Chu Jianci and Yan Chunlai just stood up, and when they heard the emperor's voice, they knelt on the ground again.

"That teaches ...... Is it the surname Xiao? ”

Empress Dowager Xiao's eyebrows jumped suddenly.

Yan Chunlai shook his head blankly, and Chu Jianci said: "Back to the emperor, not surnamed Xiao." ”

Lian Zeyu lowered his eyes and stopped looking at them, and then his father-in-law said, "Follow our family to receive the reward." ”

Chu Jianci took Yan Chunlai and kowtowed again in a panic to thank him, while Lian Zeyu had already gotten up and was facing the thoughtful gaze of Empress Dowager Xiao.

He knew what these people were thinking in front of him, and he suddenly felt so tired and ridiculous.

A small troupe made them feel like they were facing a great enemy, he frowned and said in a deep voice: "I will not accept people into the palace again, put away your thoughts, don't be embarrassed by these troupes." With that, he threw up his sleeves and went straight downstairs.

Because the displeasure on his face was too obvious, and there was a chill when he spoke, the concubines looked at each other and looked at the Empress Dowager Xiao again.

Empress Dowager Xiao sighed and said, "The emperor is a golden mouth, what are you worried about?" Instead of asking around blindly or doing some tricks underneath, it is better to do the duty of a concubine and serve the emperor well. ”

As soon as she said this, the concubines present, and even the queen, their faces darkened a little.

Concubine Quan looked like she was about to cry.

This ...... But even this duty has no chance to do it.

On a good birthday, Empress Dowager Xiao also wanted to make the emperor happy, so she finally opened her mouth and called a few troupes into the palace to be lively, but she didn't expect that the emperor was still a face that did not move.

On the night of this Halloween Day, when Empress Dowager Xiao knew that the emperor was still staying alone in Liquan Palace, she couldn't sit still anymore, although the palace door had been locked, she still called someone to carry a soft sedan chair.

Lian Zeyu was reviewing the excerpts, and when he heard the passage, he was a little stunned, and hurriedly welcomed the Empress Dowager Xiao in, and said, "It's so late, why did the queen mother come over?" Even if there is something, it is the same to call his son to go over. ”

Empress Dowager Xiao held the jade curtain with one hand, looked at the emperor with a warm smile, took a handkerchief and pressed it to the corner of her eye, and said, "Your Majesty, it's been so long, do you want to kneel down for you?" ”

Lian Zeyu chuckled, but this light laughter also carried a three-point fake in the ears of Empress Dowager Xiao, as if it was the voice that he didn't want to laugh, but he had to force himself to laugh easily.

Lian Zeyu helped the Queen Mother sit down and said, "What's wrong with the Queen Mother?" ”

Empress Dowager Xiao felt more and more sad in her heart, and she almost wanted to cry out in sorrow.

She grabbed Lian Zeyu's hand and said sadly: "Yu'er, you are not yet thirty years old...... If the concubines in the palace are not to their liking, the mourning family will select another batch of ......" Her tone became urgent again, and said: "Even if the emperor really likes women......"

Lian Zeyu paused for a moment, and suddenly said coldly: "You go out." ”

The jade curtain standing beside Empress Dowager Xiao trembled, and hurriedly walked out of the door, Lian Zeyu said: "Don't force me, Queen Mother." ”

"Mourning family forced you?" Empress Dowager Xiao's tears really flowed: "The mourning family forced you? Shang Xue's sleeve matter, the mourning family admitted it, it was the mourning family who didn't do what they promised you...... But that's already the case, do you want to pay for your mother's life? ”

Lian Zeyu took a deep breath, and his voice was already trembling.

"I didn't say anything." He looked at Empress Dowager Xiao, who had more gray hair in front of him than a year ago, it was his own mother.

He said, "Queen Mother, it's good now, I think it's good." ”

"Good what?" Empress Dowager Xiao reddened her eyes and roared: "There are a group of living widows in the palace!" Their husbands and masters are determined to live like ascetics! ”

Lian Zeyu's eyes became cold, he pulled his sleeve out of Empress Dowager Xiao's hand, lowered his head to the eyes of Empress Dowager Xiao, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, revealing a sarcastic smile, and said: "Queen Mother, they are bitter, so you let your son be their sugar." ”

He looked up at the door, the night was as dark as ink, and tonight it was dark clouds and the moon, and there was not even a trace of starlight.

He said softly: "But the bitterness in the heart of the sugar, the queen mother doesn't care." ”

When Empress Dowager Xiao heard this, she was stunned, is she such a mother? Do you want to take your son to comfort the women in the palace?

No, Empress Dowager Xiao shook her head, the emperor had distorted her mind...... She just felt that her son shouldn't suffer so much for a person who had died a long time ago and the scum was gone, her son, who was less than thirty years old, how could he live like this for the rest of his life!

She was extremely sad, puzzled to the extreme, and indignant to the extreme, she dragged Lian Zeyu and said, "Yu'er, in the end, that drama ...... Wasn't the fate of that woman set by the emperor? What does it have to do with the concubines in the palace? Isn't the emperor angry when he does this? ”

Lian Zeyu was reluctant to argue, and said, "Why should I be angry with them. ”

It's just that now, he also has a hurdle in his heart that he can't get over.

If you talk about it like this, there will be no result, Empress Dowager Xiao said: "Okay, even if you don't care about it, what about the queen?" Today is Halloween! ”

Lian Zeyu said: "If this is what the queen mother wants, I will go now." ”

"Is this what the mourners want?"

Empress Dowager Xiao trembled angrily: "The mourning family is asking for harmony between the emperor and the queen, not asking the emperor to live in a separate room with the queen every time he goes to Kunning Palace!" Don't you know when you mourn? ”

"Enough!" Even Zeyu endured it until now, and felt unbearable, and said, "Otherwise, what else?" Isn't it clear in the queen mother's own heart? I don't believe that my mother didn't check it in private! The cold palace didn't even have a single extra wooden stick, why was the fire so fierce that night that even the house and palace walls could be burned down? ”

His eyes were red, and he said, "There...... There are also sons' children there...... He was born in a cold palace, and he must have been born with hardships...... Also ......"

He gritted his teeth and said, "He was burned alive inside...... Mother, isn't that your grandson? At this point, big tears have fallen.

"So," Empress Dowager Xiao pleaded, "there is no such ...... In the heyday of the emperor's Spring and Autumn Period, even if it is for the sake of the world, it should be spread out......"

Lian Zeyu's tears had stopped, his complexion was calm, if he didn't look closely, he wouldn't even find that this cold emperor had just cried.

He said: "The queen mother has enough to worry about, and back then, you only had me." ”
