4. The new daughter-in-law meets her mother-in-law
In order to make up for what I did last night, I took the initiative to sleep on the soft couch and gave the bed to Yan Xiaoran.
After curling up all night, I woke up with a sore body, and before dawn, I suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly got out of bed and ran into the room.
Yan Xiaoran on the bed opened her eyes suddenly, her expression was fierce and cold, and she became very harmless after seeing it was me. I didn't see his expression clearly: "You are also awake, I remember something, I remember I saw in the book, the candles in the cave room are for women to bleed, that ...... Shall I shed blood now, or will you bleed? β
Yan Xiaoran: "Early in the morning, don't be funny, what book is misleading you?" β
I sat on the edge of the bed with my chest crossed: "It's full of spring......"
Yan Xiaoran snorted and laughed: "Gu Shu, you can, you're still looking at the Spring Palace map, when will you borrow me to observe it?" β
I refused: "It was given to me by the grandmother in the palace, and I still haven't figured out what it is." β
Yan Xiaoran said leisurely: "It's strange if you figure it out, as for bloodshed, it's called Luohong, I don't think it's necessary, didn't your queen mother tell you not to have a cave room, it will be even more strange with Luohong, okay." β
I nodded my head in understanding, "Oh." β
"But at this point, I'm strange, your queen mother is really bold, let you pretend to be a man for so many years." Yan Xiaoran glanced me up and down, and said contemptuously: "Your father is really confused. β
"Since ancient times, Hua Mulan has served in the army for her father, and so many people in the military camp have not found out that she is a woman, why does my father have to find out that I am a woman?" I quibble.
Yan Xiaoran looked at me with a smile, with an expression on my face that I had already seen the truth of the matter.
Okay, I lowered my eyes: "Because my father has never cared about me...... "If my father cares about me, even if it is only once, I can't hide the fact that I am a woman, but my father's heart is all in the emperor's brother." "Besides, haven't you also pretended to be a woman for so many years?"
"I'm pretending to be a woman to survive." Yan Xiaoran smiled and said.
Speaking of which, we are all poor people, but I am at least the emperor now, but Yan Xiaoran is a poor princess.
"Let's not talk about that, let's talk about who that person will be last night." Yan Xiaoran was more concerned about this matter, and he still felt a faint pain there.
I shook my head: "I don't know, the people in my palace were all given to me by my mother." Why did that person give us aphrodisiacs? β
Yan Xiaoran pursed her lips: "Of course it can't be your queen mother, I guess the master behind this person should be suspicious of you, or my identity, so as to use aphrodisiacs to tempt." β
I was surprised: "How is this tempting?" β
"If under the effect of aphrodisiac, our cave house is successful, then there is naturally no problem. But if we are all given aphrodisiacs, and we still don't have a cave house, doesn't that explain the problem? β
I nodded: "It seems to make sense." β
Yan Xiaoran cocked Erlang's legs and said, "According to what I know, the situation of your Nanling, the person behind this should be your imperial brother, the king of Nanling." He's suspicious of your identity. β
"You seem to know our Nanling very well."
Yan Xiaoran: "...... It's easy to get off topic when chatting with you. β
As he spoke, someone knocked on the door, and the little eunuch's shrill voice sounded: "Your Majesty, are you up?" β
Yan Xiaoran and I glanced at each other, and I coughed lightly and said, "Get up, you can wait outside." β
"No."
I said, "According to the rules of our Nanling, the new daughter-in-law will give tea to her mother-in-law the next day, so I will take you to see my mother-in-law in a while." β
After Yan Xiaoran and I got dressed, a little eunuch came in to wash us. The one who served Yan Xiaoran was a little palace maid, and she should be Yan Xiaoran's dowry maid.
The little maid was half-kneeling to put on Yan Xiaoran's shoes, and I hurriedly stopped: "Change the queen into a pair of flat-soled shoes." β
The little maid didn't react, but Yan Xiaoran gestured in front of the little maid, and the little maid changed his flat shoes.
When we were all dressed up, I stood beside Yan Xiaoran, holding my head high, and I was as tall as Yan Xiaoran.
"I've grown taller." Yan Xiaoran joked.
I lifted the hem of my clothes: "As the emperor, you will be laughed at if you are shorter than the empress, so you are not allowed to wear high heels in the future." "I have to wear high-heeled shoes to be as tall as Yan Xiaoran.
Yan Xiaoran waved his hand and put it on me, the two balls on his chest were against my back, and I hurriedly avoided it: "You don't get close to me...... Last night......"
The corners of Yan Xiaoran's mouth twitched fiercely, and she put down her hand and said, "You really dare to say it." β
I seem to have found a way to deal with Yan Xiaoran.
When we arrived at the Queen Mother's Kunning Palace, the mother who was waiting for the Queen Mother was already waiting at the door, and when she saw us coming, she hurriedly saluted and said, "Your Majesty is here, the Queen Mother has been waiting for a long time." As she spoke, she glared at Yan Xiaoran.
Yan Xiaoran looked tall from the moment she got off the carriage, with her head up and her chest straight, and her graceful figure set off her elegant temperament all the time.
I really want to complain, how can this bastard have two faces? If I hadn't known in advance how cheap Yan Xiaoran was in private, I would have been confused by him like this.
"The son has seen the queen mother." I am the emperor now, and I don't have to bow down when I see my mother. But Yan Xiaoran is different, as a new daughter-in-law, he must kneel.
"The concubine has seen the queen mother." Yan Xiaoran knelt down, and the maidservant who had been following him didn't know where to find a mat and put it under her knees.
I stood aside, the corners of my mouth twitched slightly, I just forgot to remind her that what my queen mother hates the most is a woman who is weak and can make a preface, which will make the queen mother think of Yang Shufei, just like he is now.
Sure enough, the queen mother frowned slightly when she saw his behavior, but she didn't say anything after all. The queen mother took a sip of the teacup, and then said slowly: "Princess Yan, now you are the queen of my Nanling, how you were in Dayan in the past, it doesn't matter if you mourn the family." In Nanling, you must abide by the rules of Nanling. β
"The daughter-in-law obeys the teachings of the queen mother."
"Get up." Mother and queen road.
I motioned for the chamberlain standing on the side to add a chair to Yan Xiaoran beside me, and the queen mother glared at me: "Emperor." β
I look up to the sky.
In the end, the queen mother said that she was tired, so let's go back first, and left me behind when we left. The queen mother asked me, "I heard that the mourning family heard that you made a lot of noise yesterday?" β
Me: "......"
"Huang'er, you didn't have a cave room with Princess Yan, how did you explain it to her?" The Queen Mother asked, holding my hand.
I muttered, "I was so tired yesterday, I went to sleep after taking a shower, and he didn't say much." β
The queen mother nodded: "That's fine." β
I went out of the dormitory, Yan Xiaoran was still waiting for me outside the door, and when he saw me come out, he joked: "Did your queen mother ask about last night's incident?" β
"How do you know?" In fact, the queen mother knew, I knew that I was a woman, but she just didn't mention it, and I didn't mention it, and both of us were pretending to be confused. So the queen mother asked a few words without pain, and did not pursue it again. If the queen mother knew that Yan Xiaoran was a man, then her attitude would be very different.
"Uh-huh." Yan Xiaoran turned her head, remembered the pain last night, gritted her teeth and said, "Such a big movement, will your queen mother not know?" β
I thought, "You're screaming too loudly." β
"Brother Huang." An elegant voice came, and I turned my head, just in time to see my imperial brother...... The man in white beside him.
I immediately stood up and corrected my attitude: "Brother Huang." β
My imperial brother Gu Chen is very respectful to me on the surface, and he can't wait to offer me like his own father, but secretly he is careful to guess. It's just that, for some reason, I don't think I saw it.
Gu Chen was wearing a moon-white robe and holding a folding fan in his hand, no matter how he looked at it, he was a handsome son. But it doesn't matter to me whether he is a young man or not, what I care about is the man next to him.
"The minister has seen His Majesty, the queen's mother." He clasped his fists and bowed to Yan Xiaoran and me.
I looked at it and couldn't take my eyes off it.
Yan Xiaoran stabbed me fiercely: "Your Majesty pays attention to your image, saliva is dripping." β
I came back to my senses, raised my empty hand, and habitually wiped the saliva from my chin. I coughed lightly: "Eh, the white waiter is exempt." "I stepped forward and tried to lift him up.
Who knew that he dodged my hand and consciously stood behind the emperor's brother, avoiding me like a snake and scorpion.
I seemed to hear Yan Xiaoran's subtle laughter......
I corrected the emperor's tone: "I don't know what the emperor's brother entered the palace in the morning, what is the so-called?" β
The imperial brother looked at me and Yan Xiaoran and said with a smile: "Yesterday, the imperial brother got married, and I haven't had time to say congratulations to the imperial brother." Seeing such a beautiful imperial sister-in-law today, the younger brother naturally wanted to congratulate the imperial brother. β
There is a saying that the weasel is called to give the chicken a New Year's greeting, and it is not good. I know this sentence very well, this kid's usual heart is wilted, and now he will be kind enough to congratulate himself?
"Thank you for the praise." Yan Xiaoran showed a perfect smile, as if Gu Chen was really praising him just now. "Your Majesty...... Very good. He turned around shyly.
Me: "......" Why do I have the urge to kick Yan Xiaoran to death? He just learns how to speak with women, what's going on with this shy little action?
In order to prevent Yan Xiaoran from doing something that made me even more terrifying, I hurriedly grabbed his waist and threatened in a low voice: "You shut up for me, let's go." β
Yan Xiaoran's expression remained unchanged, but words popped out from between her teeth: "What are you going, didn't you still look at others in a daze just now, why don't you stay and take a few more looks?" β
I pinched the flesh on Yan Xiaoran's waist fiercely, turned my head to my imperial brother and said, "Your imperial sister-in-law is a little uncomfortable, I will take him back first, and you can talk slowly......"
Until he couldn't see the figure anymore, Gu Chen opened the fan in his hand with a brush, and there were a few big characters in front of the fan, which were empty. He casually slapped his hand a few times and asked, "Qingyan, they didn't have a cave room last night, you say...... Is there really a problem with the royal brother? β
Bai Qingyan shook his head: "I can't see anything yet, looking at Princess Yan's attitude, I am not dissatisfied with Your Majesty." A woman, on her wedding night, did not have sex with her husband, how should she not have such an attitude. β
Gu Chen snorted lightly: "But...... The imperial brother's attitude towards Kiyohiko seems to be a bit special. β
Bai Qingyan frowned: "Your Highness......"
Gu Chen waved his hand: "Okay, okay, just because I didn't say it, as for whether there is a problem with the imperial brother...... Hmph, I'll try it out sooner or later, it's better to ...... Don't get caught by me. β
