Sui'er didn't follow Liu Zhao to the Ma Gong people, but said that she was tired and wanted to go back to the West Palace to rest, Liu Zhao felt sorry for her body, so she asked Cai Lun to send her back to the palace. She didn't shirk either, in fact, she also wanted to talk to Cai Lun.

Sitting on the sedan chair, Sui'er didn't speak for a long time, she was thinking about how to speak, she didn't want to know what Liu Zhao had about her, the feeling of not wanting to know more deeply, controlling her heart, she still wrapped herself in the whole and refused to hand over her sincerity. She was afraid that once she handed it over, it would be a pain that would never be recovered.

It was too quiet, and the coldness in the air forced her to forget all the good things about this month in her mind. I took a deep breath, and it seemed that even the air wanted to become the smell of the past, and I had to forget about it. The procession moved very slowly, the feet of the attendants were gentle and steady, and her heart began to become calm, and the helplessness after fleeing made her close her eyes.

Suddenly, Zhao Yu said: "Niangniang, it's time to the West Palace, please let Niangniang come down!" ”

She opened her eyes in astonishment; Not; Wrong; + Eye, I saw the gate of the West Palace, and the eunuchs and palace maids at the door had already greeted her, standing in a line together, bowing their heads and waiting for her.

Sui'er glanced at Cai Lun, if he was a few years younger and his back was a little straighter, he would still be very handsome. She knew that Cai Lun was by no means the kind of little chamberlain who didn't know anything, he had served two generations of emperors, and his thoughtfulness was beyond the reach of others. So she smiled and said, "Cai Changshi, go into the palace and sit down, Sui'er has something to ask Changshi." ”

Cai Lun glanced at the peerless Sui'er, and gave a salute: "Oh! ”

Sui'er's mind is as clear as water. Yan Ran smiled and stepped into the West Palace. A charcoal stove has been set up next to the couch in the East Warm Pavilion, which makes the room warm as spring. Zhao Yu took off the cloak for Sui'er. helped her sit down, served hot tea to Cai Lun, and turned to leave.

Cai Lun looked at Zhao Yu's back and said, "Niangniang's maid is also different!" ”

Sui'er's face was as usual, and after taking a sip of tea, she felt warm in her heart, and her mind became clearer and clearer. "Oh, what do you mean by that?"

Cai Lun smiled: "Niangniang." This Zhao Yu girl knows some martial arts, it seems that she is by no means an ordinary woman. ”

Sui'er lowered her head and smiled. "What will she get, it's just a meritorious stand, if you want to say special, it is that her stomach is particularly generous. I'm going to feed her. It's going to cost some food! ”

Cai Lun sighed lightly: "Niangniang is too modest, Miss Zhao Yu is not what Niangniang said, the old minister said this is not my words, Zhou Rong next to the emperor also said, he said that Miss Zhao must be a person with martial arts." ”

"Humility or immodesty, a maid, why take it seriously?" Sui'er lowered her eyebrows and smiled. His eyes stared at Cai Lun and said, "How do you think Sui'er should handle herself in the palace?" ”

Cai Lun was stunned, as if he didn't understand what she meant. But immediately she laughed, such a clever woman. Anyone will find a way to get close to the emperor by herself, please the emperor, and coax the emperor, only she asks the closest people around the emperor, there are still a few such smart people in the world. Let's just say that when I reminded the emperor at that time, I said that the words of the queen mother arrived at one point, but it was just right, and the proportions were not ordinary people. It's really rare to be such a little woman.

"The nobleman already knows, so why bother to ask the minister?" Cai Lun was noncommittal and replied ambiguously.

"The old ministers who have been by the emperor's side for a long time and have gone through two generations naturally know the way of the concubines in the harem. Sui'er knows that the emperor loves me now, and it may go through a long time, but as women get older, they will decline, and it is difficult to guarantee that they will fall out of favor in the future. Sui'er said unhurriedly, and there was no sadness or joy on her face.

"The emperor is a man of temperament, and the mother should also know that the old minister thinks that the most important thing for a woman is virtue, and what the emperor values is virtue. The emperor is also a person of great affection, so he naturally respects his mother. Although the heirs are also on the right path, it is difficult to ensure that there are many heirs in the palace, and there are worries about competing for heirs in the future. Niangniang, the old minister can only say this. Cai Lun took a sip of tea, and he couldn't see the joy and sorrow on his face.

Sui'er chuckled and said: "Chang Shi's words are more important than gold, I know that you are not a person who loves money, all Sui'er will help Chang Shi introduce a person, and help Chang Shi realize the great plan of benefiting the country and the people, okay?" ”

"Oh? Is this true? Cai Lun's eyes lit up and he bowed: "If that's the case, Cai Lun is grateful for the kindness of his mother." ”

Sui'er helped him up and said: "Chang Shi, I have a righteous brother, and he is also a strange person, there is no news in the world that he can't find, Chang Shi wants to inquire about the things created by the people, this person can be of great use." ”

"Then thank you Niangniang, Cai Lun has already agreed with the emperor that he will leave the palace early tomorrow morning, can you please tell Niangniang where this person is."

Sui'er smiled: "It's not difficult, you can go to my house and find Li Xia." ”

"Li Xia?" Cai Lun was slightly surprised.

"Exactly, how can the waiter recognize it?"

"I don't know it, but I know that the emperor has received Li Xia's life-saving grace, and he has also been instructed by Li Xia when the locust plague is plagued.

Sui'er shook her head and said, "Sui'er didn't know about these two things, and Chang Shi thought about it a lot." In the past three years, Sui'er has been keeping filial piety and dare not make a single mistake. ”

"Okay, I'll go to him tomorrow, I think he is also a heroic figure, and the dragon and crouching tiger are hidden by Niangniang's side!" Cai Lun became more and more impressed by this Deng nobleman.

When Liu Zhao rushed to the people of the Ma Palace, the Qingyan Palace suddenly became busy, and Luo Ying, the head of the palace, was running out, and when he saw the emperor coming, he confiscated his feet and almost hit Liu Zhao's body. Liu Zhao frowned and asked, "Why are you so flustered, who taught you to be so unruly." Luo Ying was so frightened that she hurriedly knelt down and said: "Back to the emperor, the people of Ma Gong are about to give birth, and they suddenly have abdominal pain just now." The slave was about to go to the imperial doctor and Wen Po to inform the emperor and queen again, so he was a little anxious. ”

Liu Zhao said happily in his heart: "Are you going to give birth?" Go, go, let those doctors who don't have long eyes hurry up, just say that I said it, slow, what's going on, watch out for their heads! ”

"Whoa!" Luo Yingle ran away, if he was born to the emperor this time, then the fate of his master would be different, and he would be promoted to an official or something.

Liu Zhao said to Che Qing who followed behind him: "Tell someone to find the queen, she doesn't know anything about such a big thing, it seems that I still spoil her too much." ”

He also ignored everyone's kneeling and entered the inner hall, but he didn't know what to do, only to remember the last time Song Jun gave birth, the Empress Dowager Dou told him to stabilize his mind.

It took a long time to hear the sound of footsteps, and saw two imperial doctors rushing over in a hurry, and saw him salute. He waved his hand and said: "It seems that I really want to find the servant to ask, the people of the Song Palace are sick, you don't give medicine, the people of the Ma Palace are about to give birth, you don't even send someone to guard here, you really treat the concubines of my harem as decorations, right?" ”。

"Your Majesty, it was a dereliction of duty on the part of the ministers, and I thought that there would be a few more days, so I didn't come to see anyone."

"Nonsense, this is what you are doing as a doctor? The books are all in the dog's belly. Is Wen Po coming? Again, adults and children are rewarded for their safety, and if something happens, take your heads! ”

Seeing the two imperial doctors enter, Liu Zhaocai sat down, and the warm light of the golden autumn sun was like a misty light mist, falling in the empty room, and there was a green and quiet atmosphere, as if the frost and white dew were permeating the firmament. Liu Zhao tried his best to sit down and wait quietly, he secretly warned himself that the king should not become so impetuous, he should be stable and calm.

A chaotic sound of footsteps sounded, Yin Li walked in with the maid, his glancing gaze fell on Liu Zhao's face, and he said lightly: "The concubine visits the emperor." ”

Liu Zhao snorted, did not answer, and only motioned for Yin Li to sit down with his eyes. Yin Li asked the maids to go out and wait, and sat next to Liu Zhao by his side, for a long time, it seemed that he hadn't sat by his side so affectionately for a long time. This feeling has become unfamiliar to her for a long time. She took Liu Zhao's hand and felt warm, as before.

"Your Majesty, concubine—" Liu Zhao interrupted her with a wave of his hand. "I let you manage the harem, you are the head of the family, and all the expenses and arrangements of the harem are decided by you. But what I see now is not the result that I am happy with. You keep saying that I omitted the harem, but I handed over this harem to you, what did you do? ”

He pointed to the room and said: "You know that Ma Gong gave birth to a child, but you don't worship the imperial doctor and Wen Po, you know that the people of Song Palace are sick, but you don't send medicine, you know that the Taigong hospital is in a mess, but you don't manage it." I also heard that you use it very exaggeratedly, you have to eat 100 vegetables at a time, and you have to change a set of clothes every day? The Han Dynasty has advocated thrift since Emperor Guangwu, you are the master of the six palaces, how do you set an example? ”

His voice was stern, his expression was hideous, and he was so frightened that the intimacy that had just sprung up from Yin Li suddenly fell out of the clouds. It's like being splashed down by a basin of cold water, and the whole body is cold!

She suddenly cried out, and the makeup on her face became a ball in an instant, how could she still look like a queen! Liu Zhao frowned in disgust, and felt indecent, so he had to say: "That's it, you go back and think about it, I don't need you to accompany me, this day, my mood is very bad." ”

A few words made Yin Li feel even more unbearable, crying even more, her hair was scattered, tears flowed, she couldn't stand at the desk, her shoulders rose and fell, and it was difficult to hold herself. All of a sudden, Liu Zhao was also upset, and yelled: "Okay, if you cry again, I will let people take you back to Changqiu Palace!" ”

This kind of humiliating thing, Yin Li still can't do it, although the grievances in his heart need to be vented, but he didn't dare to cry anymore, so he had to wipe his tears and sobbed: "The concubine doesn't need it, since the emperor thinks the concubine is not good, the concubine can leave." She stood up, turned her head and ran out, only to feel that the world was so great that there was no place for herself, and her sorrow was even worse, and tears came out of her eyes again, like springs.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a clear cry of a baby, and I heard Wen Po shouting: "Congratulations to the emperor, she is a little princess, her eyebrows are picturesque and beautiful!" (To be continued......)
