The queen drafted the decree, and instructed the Internal Affairs Office to prepare gifts, all of which were sent to the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion, which could be regarded as adding makeup to Qin Siyuan

The queen mother made a move, and the four concubines of the harem couldn't be idle - Concubine Cheng thought that Miss Qin of Zuo Xiangfu was Xu Zigui's cousin, and she had a good impression of Xu Zigui and liked that little girl, so she also prepared a gift and sent it to Zuo Xiangfu

Concubine Xian, Concubine Shu and Concubine Min They watched the queen send makeup, they had to let the emperor know that they were as virtuous as the queen's mother, and they were courtiers for the emperor, although the gifts could not overpower the queen, but they all did their best, and the emperor was only happy, so the emperor, your old man took advantage of the happy moment to set the position of the concubine

Jinxi told the queen these as jokes, and the smile on the corner of the queen's mouth really deepened a little, and while holding Jinxi's hand and walking towards Anle Palace, she was gossiping with a smile

"I really want to thank them for making Ah Jie (Wu's) face long."

And here in Anle Palace, Zi Dai took advantage of the time to wait for the queen's mother, and after Xu Zigui and the two of them talked about it as gossip, Xu Zigui's reaction was also like that of the queen, but a bad smile flashed in her eyes, and she winked at Zi Dai, "It's really aggrieved and ruined Concubine Niangniang"

Mo Leyuan was just about to ask why he had spoiled the lady concubine for his grievances, but he didn't want to, as soon as Xu Zigui finished saying this, a eunuch sang: "The queen has arrived."

Xu Zigui and Mo Leyuan hurriedly went out to greet them

"Greetings to the Queen Mother"

"Hurry up," the queen smiled and helped the two who were curtsy to their knees, and pulled one into the house with one hand, "What were you talking about just now, what you said so lively"

Seeing the queen holding Xu Zigui's hand, Mo Leyuan knew that the queen was no longer angry, so he smiled and joked: "Erchen looked at a table of delicious food but couldn't move. It's really hard for the son, if the queen mother doesn't come again, it is estimated that the son's chest will really be hungry."

"Just your gluttony" The queen smiled and nodded Mo Leyuan's forehead, Mo Leyuan pursed his lips and argued: "That's the queen mother doesn't know how beautiful and delicious the food made by Gui'er is" said, giving Xu Zigui a look, and the two pulled the queen left and right. The queen was dragged into the dining room by the two little girls

The queen looked at the food on the table. His eyes were full of surprise, and he looked at Xu Zigui in surprise and asked, "You did all this?" ”

Xu Zigui nodded and said modestly: "Carving insect skills." Let the mother smile", said a salute, and said: "The queen mother is too old to walk back and forth, so Gui'er took it upon herself to divide each dish into two portions." One was sent to Cining Palace, and I hope Niangniang won't blame it."

"You kid," the queen glared at Xu Zigui with disgust. Pulled her down and sat down beside him, "You are filial, what should I do to blame you?" ”

"That's right, Gui'er, you have too much heart" Mo Leyuan was heartless. I didn't know what the two of them were talking to, but they looked at the table with all the colors and aromas on the table and drooled, thinking about asking the queen to move the chopsticks quickly. Then she can start eating

Mo Leyuan's careful thinking naturally couldn't hide from the queen and Xu Zigui, and the two glanced at each other. Seeing the smiles in each other's eyes, the queen picked up the chopsticks and sandwiched a piece of fish, Mo Leyuan's chopsticks couldn't wait to stretch out in the direction of the braised pork ribs, and Xu Zigui, who was watching, couldn't cry or laugh aside, but he didn't move the chopsticks, only drank white porridge with a bowl

Just now she asked for her guilt by saying that she took it upon herself to send food to the Queen Mother, but what she really wanted to express was that she went to Zhengyuan Temple on her own initiative, hoping that the queen would not mind, and the queen also made it clear that she was kind and would not bother with her.

As a result, the future mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the palace were all happy, but Mo Ziyuan, who was on the way to the battle, was not as comfortable as them

Yesterday, Yuexi just got Xu Zigui's orders, so he didn't delay for a moment to find Xu Ziyu with the letter, and told Xu Ziyu the news that Xu Zihei sent someone to the south

After thinking about it like this, Xu Ziyu made a decision to let Yuexi take a few secret guards who the prince deliberately stayed in the capital to chase in that direction.

The speed of Yuexi and his party was indeed fast, and they intercepted the people sent by Xu Zisi halfway and solved them together, and then quickly caught up with Mo Ziyuan, and handed the letter in his hand to Mo Ziyuan, Yuexi breathed a sigh of relief and finally completed the task

When Yuexi caught up with Mo Ziyuan, they happened to stop at the post station to rest, Mo Ziyuan saw Yuexi's heart was tense at first, thinking that something had happened to Xu Zigui, until Yuexi expressed his intention clearly, Mo Ziyuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and stretched out his hand: "What about the letter?" ”

Yuexi hurriedly handed over the letter to Mo Ziyuan, "The county lord said that you should destroy it after reading it"

Mo Ziyuan nodded, opened the letter and looked at it-

"Your Highness,

Zhan Xin'an

Anyang has already told me everything you explained to Anyang, don't worry, I will cooperate with Niangniang in the past few days to bring down the Zhao family.

Well, there is also a very important point, the countermeasures I discussed with my eldest brother, the third prince and the fourth prince have all believed it, but the fourth prince is insidious and cunning, while sending the main force to chase the east, the other three parties have people sent by him, I hope His Royal Highness will be more careful

Yuexi got the news from Xunfang Pavilion, and my second uncle also sent people to the south, but their target was not you, it was my father and my brother, fortunately, when you read this letter, Yuexi had already eliminated all the people, although the temporary danger was gone, you should remember not to take it lightly

Don't talk nonsense, let's start getting down to business, let's talk about it first, don't get angry, and read it carefully

I was going to be a bystander, watching the three princes and the four princes fighting, but the three princes and the virtuous concubines are really like a show, I, a bystander, can't stand it, I just don't do it, I have to solve a threat for you before you come back, the four princes are too insidious and cunning, although they once understood each other, but they never found the weakness of that person, so they gave up, why don't you be a favor, help the four princes fight the three princes and the second prince. It is also considered the kindness of husband and wife in the previous life

I'm guessing you're about to crush this piece of paper,"

As Xu Zigui expected, after reading the words above, Mo Ziyuan was really about to crush the letter, but when he saw this sentence, he couldn't help but almost laugh again and continued to read

"Don't be angry. Although the three princes are dull-minded. But he is not an ordinary person, Gui'er has no way to guarantee that it will not leak, let alone the second prince. Over the years, he has been cultivating his own power by the side of the third prince, and such a person knows that he is not his opponent, so he simply gives up. Use the cunning of the four princes to defeat the second and third princes first, and wait for you to return. You can devote yourself to fighting the four princes and clearing the obstacles for you as much as possible, which is the only thing I can do for you in Beijing, you are fighting bravely on the front line. I'll clear the way for you in the backyard, so the two of us can be said to be fighting side by side

Anyang is not cheating. I have learned from her the reason why you have asked for battle, and I am moved but also blamed. Well, it's self-blame, of course, I will blame you for not consulting me in advance, I didn't know until you left, compared with your safe life, it's just a few side concubines, it's me making a big fuss

Do you remember the question you asked me the first time you broke into my boudoir at night? You ask the word 'Zigui' has a deep meaning, but in fact, there is no deep meaning, but when my mother was pregnant with me, my father was fighting in the northwest at that time, and my mother was looking forward to my father's safe return every night, so I was named 'Gui'

A-Yuan, I look forward to your return.

Zigui is handwritten. ”

Mo Ziyuan has been rubbing the final payment back and forth with his fingertips, just like rubbing Xu Zigui's lips over and over again when he was parting, such a letter, such a heart, how could he be willing to burn it? It's just that there are too many confidential things mentioned earlier, if it is passed out, let's not talk about those confidential things, only Xu Zigui's sentence "all the husband and wife kindness of the previous life" is enough to destroy Xu Zigui

After pondering for a while, Mo Ziyuan tore off the part of Xu Zigui's explanation of his name, threw all the others into the fire, burned them, and stuffed the torn piece of paper into the peace charm that Xu Zigui asked him for, and put it back on his chest to protect it

"Sue your master, say I know, let her ...... Be careful, stay safe"

Mo Ziyuan's eyes sank, and he added, "Let her not worry about me, I'll be fine."

"Yes" Yuexi took the order, looked at the secret guards who came with him behind him, and hesitated: "Are these secret guards kept by His Royal Highness, or let the slaves and maids take them back?" ”

"Take them back and keep them in case you need them"

In fact, what Mo Ziyuan wanted to say was that if things didn't go well, the whole army would not be wiped out, and there would be people available in the capital.

Yuexi naturally didn't dare to disobey Mo Ziyuan's order, and returned the same way with everyone, and met several waves of people sent by the Four Princes on the way, and they also solved it for Mo Ziyuan

While Yuexi was rushing back, Xu Zigui was working hard to have a good relationship with his future mother-in-law and sister-in-law.

"Gui'er, your scallion oil fish is really good, there is no fishy smell of fish, but it retains its umami, it is even more delicious than the imperial dining room."

"Niangniang praises falsely, how dare Gui'er compare with the craftsmanship of the imperial dining room"

Xu Zigui was humble on his face, but in fact, his true thoughts in his heart were: That's nature, but I am also a person who has learned cooking from the future world, and there are hundreds of ways to make a dish, which is naturally better than you ancients who only used one method to make it

"Gui'er, you have too few braised pork ribs, I can't eat enough" Mo Leyuan looked at the empty plate, still unsatisfied.

The queen knocked on Mo Leyuan's head and was disgusted: "This plate of meat is all eaten by you, it's too little, beware of accumulating food and making your stomach uncomfortable."

Mo Leyuan pouted, "Who let the queen mother and Gui'er not eat, didn't the son think about not wasting food?"

"You have the most" The queen knocked Mo Leyuan's forehead, looked at Xu Zigui again, and said with concern: "I see that you haven't eaten much today, but is there any discomfort on your body?" ”

Xu Zigui shook his head and explained with a smile: "Xie Niangniang cares, Gui'er is very good, but recently I somehow don't want to eat meat, so I ate less."

The queen nodded, contacted the antecedents, only thought that Xu Zigui begged for a peace charm written by Master Puhui, in order to repay the vow, this is a vegetarian, so thinking about it, the queen was moved and distressed, Xu Zigui is when he is growing up, eleven or twelve-year-old children, how can there be people who don't like to eat meat?

The queen took Xu Zigui's hand, her eyes were slightly red, "Good boy, it's hard for you"

Xu Zigui raised her eyebrows, although she did it voluntarily for Mo Ziyuan not to eat meat, but after all, Mo Ziyuan is the queen's biological son, and Mo Ziyuan has always been a thorn in the queen's heart for her to invite herself to fight, and she is only telling the queen that it is relative, and she is also willing to do something for Mo Ziyuan.

It's just that she didn't expect that she only revealed a little signal, and the queen would be able to find the cause and effect along the vine, such a smart and intelligent person is worthy of being a mother in the world

Xu Zi gathered his thoughts, held the queen's hand and smiled: "What did Niangniang say?" Why can't Gui'er understand? ”

"You kid" The queen smiled and patted Xu Zigui's head, knowing that Xu Zigui didn't want to let herself know like this, so she followed the pretending to be stupid, pretending not to know, and changed the topic, "Tomorrow, your eldest cousin will get married, and the palace will specially ask you and Le'er for a day off, and Ming'er will go to Zuo Xiangfu to send your eldest cousin"

"Yes" I heard that the queen asked for leave for herself, which means that if you don't go to class, you don't have to be beaten, Xu Zigui Mo Leyuan even happily called "Niang Niang Chitose", which made the queen happy, and couldn't help but kindly remind

"But tomorrow you have to get up early, you have to get up at the end of the ugly hour, you two lazy pigs, don't be unable to get up then."

"So early?" The two little sisters looked at the queen in surprise, and said in unison, Mo Leyuan was even more unscrupulous, "We all have to get up so early, not to mention Miss Qin, how can you get married and go to the execution ground?"

The corners of Xu Zigui's mouth twitched slightly, the queen pouted her head silently, neither of them wanted to pay attention to her, but Mo Leyuan still didn't know it, and muttered in fragments, "Marriage is so painful, I simply don't settle it"

After thinking about it, no, if she doesn't get married, then Wei Xiaohou will marry someone else, no, she has to get married! So, clenched his fists slightly, and muttered, "I am a princess, a golden branch and jade leaf, there should be a special case when you get married, you don't have to get up early......"

Mo Leyuan thought that he muttered very quietly, and was all listened to by the queen and Xu Zigui, the corners of Xu Zigui's mouth twitched slightly, and she looked at the queen sitting on the side, she was really afraid that Mo Leyuan would accidentally say that Wei Xiaohou was coming, if Mo Leyuan's crush on Wei Yuanfeng reached the ears of the emperor and queen, then Wei Yuanfeng's reputation as a seducer/seducer would not be able to escape, and maybe it would ruin Wei Yuanfeng

Fortunately, although Mo Leyuan was a little confused, he also knew what to say and what not to say, and he did not say anything about his heart and Wei Yuanfeng, the queen saw that it was not early, so she also got up and went back to the palace, and before leaving, she specially instructed the two little girls, "Don't get up late tomorrow"

Seeing that the two little girls nodded and agreed, the queen left with confidence

As soon as the queen left, Mo Leyuan was full of Xu Zigui and asked the question that had been held all night: "Gui'er, why do you want to suffocate Concubine Shu by adding makeup to your sister?" Although it's your cousin, it's just a gift, so don't be so stingy" (to be continued)
