Chapter Ninety-One: Estrangement

Eastern Evening City, Imperial Palace.

The emperor has been sick, since the eldest princess came back to stay in the "Moon Pavilion", the sound of reciting scriptures has not stopped for a day, are those monks not thirsty? Don't those incomprehensible mantras make you faint with a headache? A small palace maid pondered, and hurriedly walked by the gate of the "Moon Pavilion" with a tray.

In the palace surrounded by layers of palace walls, Shen Yueyan was dressed in a red golden silk phoenix tail palace dress, and the delicate makeup on her face made her still look like a girl with a young girl.

There was no one in the huge palace, only she sat in front of the bronze mirror a little sluggishly, she looked at the beauty in the mirror, sighed slowly, and her white and tender fingers touched the face of the beauty in the mirror, and her eyes became stupid.

The sound of shredded footsteps sounded, and in came a stream with a shallow baby fat on his cheeks.

She walked over with a smile, picked up the multicolored silk flower-knotted long hairpin on Shen Yue's cigarette head, and said with a smile: "The queen looks like a fairy, and the slave maid feels that she can't see enough every day!" ”

Shen Yueyan turned around and held Liu'er's soft little hand in the palm of her hand, "You, even the queen of this palace dare to joke, it seems that you don't want your little head." ”

When she said this, her expression was not a little angry, but there was a smile on the corner of her mouth.

"Queen Mother, the slave doesn't dare anymore." Liu'er also went down with the trend, and hurriedly saluted, still laughing and groaning.

Then she got up, plucked a golden hairpin from her head, pinched it with her green fingers and twisted it in the middle of the hairpin, only to see a small piece of paper exposed in the hollow hairpin.

Seeing this, Shen Yueyan showed a rare hint of excitement, she quickly pulled out the roll of paper, flattened it and looked at it.

"This is news that just came from over there, and the slave will send it to you as soon as she gets it." Liu'er lowered her voice and said carefully.

Shen Yueyan read the note with only three lines of words several times, and there was a hint of softness on her tense face all day.

"Well, well done. The person who sent the letter didn't give anything else? Didn't say anything else? She was still not at ease, and asked Liu'er again.

Liu'er didn't know what Shen Yueyan was hoping for, wasn't what the letter said clear enough?

can only reply truthfully: "No, the little eunuch who delivered the letter left after handing this to the slave and maid, and did not say anything, nor did he give anything next to the slave and maid." ”

Liu'er was a little confused, she looked at the woman in front of her and kept rubbing the small note in her hand, as if it was something precious.

"Niangniang, I'll move the charcoal basin over and burn the note!" Liu'er said as she walked to the corner of the temple and brought a pot of burning charcoal.

Shen Yueyan reflexively said, "No need," and then hurriedly folded the note and put it into the sachet on his waist, "Just put it here, you don't need to burn it, and no one will find out." She seemed to be talking to Liu'er and seemed to be talking to herself, in short, very abnormal.

"Yes," Liu'er paused, then complimented, and moved the hot charcoal basin back to the corner.

This son, she couldn't help but start to be curious about the content of the note, she knew that the note was from the new city of Beixin, but she didn't know who the person over there was, the queen mother had also shown her the content of the letter once or twice before, it was nothing more than an analysis of the pros and cons of the Eastern Yuan Dynasty, and it could be regarded as half a military division, but Niangniang had never been so out of shape as today, not only was her actions a little flustered, but she also put the note baby in the sachet she carried, which was really incredible.

When Liu'er looked up, Shen Yueyan had already turned to the front of the couch, she stretched out her arms, turned her back and said, "Give Bengong a wide coat, Bengong wants to sleep for a while." ”

Liu'er stepped forward and was about to untie the plate on Shen Yueyan's waist, when the high-pitched voice of the guards came from outside the hall.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived."

As soon as the words landed, Yuan Hongyi, who was dressed in a fiery red robe, entered the main hall of Yanxi Palace, and Shen Yueyan couldn't care about unbuttoning half of the buttons, and ran out of the inner hall happily.

When her Yi'er came, she raised her hand to pick up the layers of gauze tents, and she arrived at the outer hall in a few steps, with happy colors in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.

"Yi'er, you're here. Come, let the queen mother take a good look. ”

Yi'er has always been obsessed with her about marriage, and at first she thought that Yi'er was still the same as before, and the child's temper was over. But every time she stepped into his Jinghuan Palace, she was blocked from the door for various reasons, and even when she met, she broke up unhappily. Today, Yi'er came to visit her mother in person, how could she not make her happy.

Yuan Hongyi looked in good spirits, and his already beautiful face looked a little bewitching. He seemed to have something happy, seeing that Shen Yueyan didn't have an annoyed face like two days ago, but got up and bowed to his mother.

Without waiting for one kneeling down, Shen Yueyan had already quickly helped him up, and led him to sit down with a smile on his face.

"Yi'er, why do you have time to see your mother today?" As she spoke, her hand involuntarily touched the top of Yuan Hongyi's hair, rubbing it back and forth, with a deep love in her eyes.

"Erchen came today because I heard that the princess who is going to marry Beixin seems to be a substitute, and it is not the so-called Princess Zhaohua, the pearl of Bei'anhuang, at all." He stared intently at Shen Yueyan in front of him, although he was inquiring, he said firmly.

Who leaked the news? Shen Yueyan's eyes were dark for a moment, and she planned to hide this news for a while, but how could Yi'er know it earlier, these damn minions have such loose mouths.

"Well, it's Jiahe who is going to marry." Her voice was unwavering, and she didn't seem to be the slightest surprised that Yuan Hongyi learned about it.

"Although this Jiahe princess is the daughter of the bachelor's mansion, she is also a beautiful embryo, and she is also one of the best talented women in Beijing and New Zealand. Moreover, Bei'an Huang has already given the title and has also issued an edict to the world, there is nothing wrong with it. ”

Yuan Hongyi, who had a hint of schadenfreude, saw Shen Yueyan's indifferent appearance, and immediately couldn't hold his breath, you must know that the purpose of his coming today was to give his mother a little blow, who told her to always be self-righteous and not take into account his feelings. However, things didn't seem to go the way he thought.

"Queen Mother, don't you feel a trace of guilt towards your son? I don't agree to the marriage, and now Beixin is clearly looking down on our Dongyuan, so I found an official lady to fill the number, but you still have to hide it from me, are you still my mother? ”

He was furious, and his tone was full of indignation. The cup full of tea on the table was swept down with a strong force, and the teacup shattered in response, and porcelain shards splashed everywhere.

Before Shen Yueyan could speak, he turned around and rushed out of Yanxi Palace angrily, without looking back and striding away.

Shen Yueyan in the hall sighed faintly, and retracted the fingers hanging in the air weakly.

Silly child, how could the queen mother harm you? She only moved her lips, but finally did not say anything, but remained silent.
