It was almost dawn, and I hurried back, carefully avoiding people's eyes and ears along the way, for fear that people would see that there would be some right and wrong.

Although Queen Meng may stay there all night, what worries me is that if Yuan Hyuk goes back to the palace in the morning to change his court clothes, or if someone comes to pick up the court clothes and changes them, he will find out that I was not in the palace all night.

Fortunately, before dawn, it was too late, and after avoiding some people, I entered the dormitory very smoothly.

“…… Madame, where have you been! Cui Xi said suddenly.

I was startled and almost panicked, but I calmed myself down before I watched the temple for a week, but fortunately she was the only one. Seeing her sleepy-eyed, I could only venture to guess that she had just woken up and came to see me, but I wasn't sure how long she had been waiting here. "When did you come?" ”

"It's been a while, the slave maid originally wanted to take a nap and come to see Madame, but who knew that she had slept all at once, and seeing that the sky was almost dawn, she hurriedly ran to see Madame." Cui Xi was a little dazed, as if she was afraid that I would blame her, "Madam, didn't you rest?" ”

"What?" I was going to tell her that she came over a short time after I was out, but I didn't expect Trixi's words to disrupt my plans, and I don't know how she saw it.

"Bed!" Cui Xi didn't have the heart to look at it, and pointed to the futon on the bed that was laid out last night and said to me, "There is no trace on the bed, hasn't Mrs. just slept before?" ”

I didn't expect her to be so smart in such a trivial matter, and she could see through the flaws at a glance, so I couldn't tell her that I had just woken up and gone out for a walk, and if she knew that I wasn't in the dormitory that night, even if she couldn't guess it, but if Yuan Hyuk knew, I'm afraid Yuan Hyuk would be suspicious.

When I thought of this, I hurriedly thought of countermeasures while coping with the situation in front of me, I slowly stretched out my hand, held my forehead and said, "Maybe I drank some wine last night, and I met Queen Meng's people to make a fuss, and the sleepiness was gone, only the wine was uncomfortable, and I wanted to breathe outside, but who knew that I fell asleep outside." ”

As I spoke, I walked over to the table and sat down, pretending to still have a headache.

"Madam, how can you sleep outside, you are so thinly dressed, but you will be sick." Cui Xi hurriedly came over, "Then don't go to bed and rest for a while." ”

I followed her words and turned my head to look at the bed.

The words of the two palace maids last night seemed to be repeated in my ears. I can even imagine that after Won Hyuk sent me out of the palace, Mrs. Li was happy on this bed, and at that time, I was on the line of life and death in the temple. Now, he wants me to live in this dormitory, and his love is really frivolous.

"Ma'am, what's wrong?" Cui Xi asked a little uneasily when she saw me looking at the bed and not speaking for a while.

"I can't sleep on this bed." I said coldly.

"Huh?" Cui Xi was stunned, "But before, you have always lived here, how can you ......?"

"When I say I can't sleep, I can't get used to sleeping." I was so distraught that I didn't want to explain any more, and I even had the urge to leave the place where I was suffocated and go to the courtyard where I had lived.

But I held back.

Now my identity is different, I am the wife of Yuan He, the wife of the monarch of this Yu country, and I am no longer the simple Niyin girl I was at the beginning.

On the wedding night, the two maids clearly said that to me, and if I left here and gave way of this, wouldn't I be in their arms? I won't let it.

Cui Xi listened to the movement outside, so she could only go out to take a look first, she had already come back from a distracted kung fu, and she stayed by my side and said, "Madam, His Majesty the monarch has something to do and went directly to the court, and Gonggong Su came to get His Majesty's court clothes." ”

I nodded in acquiescence. Cui Xi took Yuan Hee's court clothes from the side and handed them to Father-in-law Su who was waiting outside the hall.

"What's wrong with ma'am?" I heard Grandpa Su asking Cui Xi.

Cui Xi glanced back at me, and then whispered back to Father-in-law Su, "Madame, since His Majesty the monarch left last night, she hasn't rested well, she should have caught a cold, and her face doesn't look very good." ”

After listening to her, I slowly got up, walked outside the door, and pretended not to know and said to Grandpa Su, "Grandpa Su, I don't know if you are here, look at me...... It's rude. ”

Father-in-law Su is the old man next to Yuanhe, and when Yuanhe lived in the prince's mansion in the past, I saw this father-in-law Su. Now that Yuan He has succeeded to the throne, he is naturally a close confidant of Yuan He, and he must not be offended or neglected.

"Madame's words." Father-in-law Su is in his sixties, slightly fat, giving people a simple feeling, always smiling, but a pair of small eyes always reveal the cunning of a fox, "Yesterday was Madame's newlywed wedding, but Queen Meng...... Alas, look at what this thing is called, Your Majesty said it last night, yes, looking at Queen Meng, I feel even more good about you, although Your Majesty is there with Queen Meng, but Xin, I have already flown to you. ”

I can naturally hear that Grandpa Su is saying good things to please me, "Grandpa Su, look at what you said, if you let Queen Meng's people listen to it, they don't think you are facing me." ”

"Hey ......" Father-in-law Su didn't see outside, and after laughing with me for a while, he looked around, and joked very carefully, "The old slave is really a person who is towards the lady, as long as the lady does not dislike it, the old slave is willing to make cattle and horses for the lady, no one in this palace knows, Your Majesty's heart is here with Mrs. Zhaohua, madam, your good life, but in the back." ”

"Oh?" I knew that he was hinting at me, so I followed him and asked, "What did Grandpa Su say about this?" ”

"Madam, Your Majesty is thinking about moving the Meng family, in the future, in this palace, aren't you the biggest, are you ......" He leaned into my ear and whispered, "Beware of Lord Meng, Your Majesty had to hand over the case of Miss Qu to Lord Meng for investigation, I'm afraid Lord Meng wants to take this opportunity to frame you." ”

Gonggong Su retreated, and only then did he take the court clothes in Cui Xi's hand, and this one immediately changed his expression, and said loudly, "Okay, this majesty is about to go to court, and the slave has to send this court dress to your majesty." After the early dynasty, His Majesty will come to see Madame, so you can rest assured. ”

"Niyin, thank you for mentioning it." I said. "If the day the neon sound comes out, I will not forget the kindness of my father-in-law today."

He had already turned around, held his court robes, and walked towards the front hall.

After watching the group leave, I put away my smile and said to Cui Xi, "Go find Hou Yue." ”

Cui Xi answered the call to look for it, and after a while, she came back with Hou Yue. I gave her a look, and Cui Xi excused herself to withdraw.

Hou Yue turned his head and watched Cui Xi leave, the door closed, he suddenly smiled weirdly, and asked in a low voice, "Sister, you had a good night last night." ”

"You already knew that, didn't you?" I pretended to be angry and nodded at his forehead, "You dare to lie to me that Concubine Yun is sick, in fact, she colluded with others and deceived me in the past, do you know that if this matter is known to others, you and him will die." ”

"Yo, sister, why are you angry?" Hou Yue was frightened, thinking that I was really angry, so he hurriedly explained, "I'm also looking at you...... Okay, okay, let's not talk about it, why are you different from the second son, the second son obviously ...... when he goes back."

"What's going on?" He didn't say anything halfway, but it made me more curious.

Hou Yue found out, smiled ambiguously, and teased me with a long voice, before finally stopping selling Guanzi, "When the second son went back, he was also cheerful, his steps were lighter, and he pretended to be serious, in fact, he let me see it several times when I was secretly happy, so I just didn't poke him." ”

It turned out that when Yuan Jue went back, he reacted like this.

I waved my hand, "Forget it, I didn't come to you to ask you about this, don't talk nonsense when you go out, lest people listen to it, and you won't even save your life." "I'm a lot more serious," I always feel that there is a problem between Yuan Hyuk and Lord Meng, he seems to be restrained by Lord Meng, I want you to help me check it out to see if something happened. ”

"The monarch and Lord Meng?" Hou Yue also gradually restrained his smile, "I haven't heard of a conflict between the monarch and Lord Meng recently, but if there is anything wrong, could it be because of that incident?" ”

"Which thing?" I can't wait to ask.

"Oh, it's a matter of the Yiren repeatedly violating the border, after the second prince lost power and was demoted, the previous forces were scattered, some of them went to the command of other adults, some were assigned to the palace guards, and the wooden city guarded the city. Although many adults in the DPRK and China have repeatedly expanded their power, no one dares to fight with the stronger Yibu soldiers, and the DPRK has always been peaceful, and no one dares to come out of this. But now, the Yibu people used the excuse to find fault and repeatedly invaded the border towns, and the monarch intended to clean them up, frustrate their arrogance, and wanted to send Lord Meng out, but Lord Meng deduced that he was old and refused to fight. "Hou Yue, who is not in a proper shape on weekdays, is also serious when he talks about the military and political affairs of the court, and he is very honest.

Lord Meng refuses to fight?!

"Is it true that Lord Meng can't go to the battlefield?" I don't believe it, the few times I've seen him before, he doesn't look like he is old and incompetent, why is there going to be a war, so it won't work.

"How is that possible?" Hou Yue denied this possibility, "Last month, I also saw him make an appointment with a few ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee to go hunting outside the city. ”

I thought about it for a while, "With Lord Meng's temper, it is not necessarily that he is afraid of the Yi soldiers, it is estimated that he is afraid that Yuan He will let him lead the troops to fight, and he wants to disperse his forces, once he leaves Mucheng, what will happen in this palace, but it is really difficult to say." ”

"Sister, why are you the same as the second son." Hou Yue smiled and sighed, "You really have a tacit understanding, and even your thoughts are exactly the same." ”

"Why, does he think so too?" I thought that Yuan Jue had already died and stopped paying attention to these things.

"It's the **** who mentioned it to him, and he said it himself." Hou Yue said, he lost a lot, "Actually, if our second son is still powerful, no matter how many Yibu people he has, who dares to offend us." It's a pity that the second son has no wisdom and ability, but he can only watch them bully us. ”

I was silent.

“…… Madame, Your Majesty the Monarch will be here soon. Tricy ran in from outside, a little panicked.

A hint of surprise flashed in Hou Yue's eyes, although he didn't make any special moves, but there was inevitably some nervousness in his eyes.

How could Yuan Hyuk go down so quickly, "What are you panicking, come back when you come back, I didn't do anything." ”

Listening to my words, Hou Yue quickly calmed down.

Yuan He had already stepped into the hall, Cui Xi stood aside and waited, Hou Yue took the lead in clasping his fists and saluting, "Your Majesty." ”

When Yuan Hyuk saw Hou Yue, he just looked at me.

"I asked Cui Xi to find Hou Yue, I was busy with the wedding before, and I forgot to care about him, after all, he was injured to protect me, if I just ignore it, I don't want to go." I slowly got up from my chair, "Why did you come back so quickly, I just saw Gonggong Su send you the court clothes." ”

"Well, it's fine, I'll be back early." Yuan He replied to me first, helped me sit down, and then sat next to him, and he said to Hou Yue, "The order was made just now, Hou Yue has a meritorious escort, and Gu has personally appointed Hou Yue to be promoted to a general." After a while, Gonggong Su will pass on his will, and in the future, Hou Yue will be General Hou. ”

After Won Hyuk finished speaking, he looked at me and gently patted the back of my hand on the table, probably asking if I was satisfied.

I responded to him with a smile before I said to Hou Yue, "Then I have to congratulate General Hou." ”

Hou Yue leaned over and thanked him, "Hou Yue, you will definitely live up to Your Majesty's expectations." ”

Yuan He was satisfied, he looked at Hou Yue's legs and asked, "How is General Hou's legs?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, it has been much better, and it has not hurt my muscles and bones, so the situation is not serious." Hou Yue still replied respectfully.

Yuan Hyuk nodded and said, "What were you guys talking about?" ”

"Talking about the bed," I knew that Yuan Hyuk asked what he was talking about again, and he must still be not very comfortable with Hou Yue, so he mentioned the bed, "I wanted to say it earlier, that bed was too hard, and I slept uncomfortably." So by the way, I asked Hou Yue, if I wanted to change the bed, would I still trouble the palace eunuch. I don't know how to tell you, and Hou Yue is like a younger brother to me, so I want him to be cheeky and help me find out what the supervisor said first, and see if it's troublesome. ”

"Bed?!" Wonhyuk looked at the bed suspiciously.

"How? Now that you know, can you change to a softer one? When I asked him this, I had calculated it, and if he had a ghost in his heart, he would have agreed in a weak heart.

"Okay." He agreed, and looked back at me, "Since you don't feel well, let the superintendent change it to a cork." ”

I raised the corners of my lips slightly. (To be continued.) )
