Not many people know that the emperor who left the country was actually a fool with insufficient intelligence. People just heard that the emperor was quite mysterious, and the ministers only knew that the saint was weak and had little real power in the hands of the queen mother, and even Yin Yuan, one of the important ministers, and Li Xiuming, who knew everything, did not guess that the truth would be like this. Yes, who would dare to imagine that their majestic and majestic Majesty the Son of Heaven is actually just a mentally handicapped person with empty skin, and who can bear to leave the country for a hundred years, and the foundation is all supported by a woman who hangs the curtain.

Zhang Shaoqing knew that he had never acted rashly, and although the woman who was hidden behind the curtain and pointed out the country held great power, she did not have any intention of becoming the emperor. Everyone respectfully calls her the queen mother, in the final analysis, she is just an ordinary woman in her thirties, in addition to being smart and powerful, she has not given birth to any three-headed and six-armed skills.

The first emperor was able to change the political state for leaving the country, and the dispute at the border did not bring much loss to the country. There is no need to clean up the mess of the new dynasty and the people, and the matter of governing the country is really hard but not difficult for the queen mother, and the only thing she has worked hard about over the years is just how to protect this slightly stupid child and be a good emperor on the surface. In fact, she did a good job too. The east wind does not come, the willows do not fly, the peach blossoms do not bloom, she has guarded a majestic city for many years, and after all, she has become the strongest appearance.

"Queen Mother, the emperor is full, but he can't sleep."

"Good boy, sit and play by yourself for a while without sleepiness. Later, a few close ministers will come to meet you, and the queen mother will accompany you to talk a few words. ”

The Queen Mother stretched out her hand to help the person sit up, and gently wiped the kernel crumbs from the corner of his mouth. Seeing that he pouted and frowned and looked reluctant, he coaxed a few words softly.

"After all, you are still the king of this country, and although you can't be diligent in government, you still have to have necessary activities. Don't worry, there are not many people coming, you just have to be obedient and do your own thing, and the queen mother will naturally help you solve the rest of the problems. ”

"Okay, the emperor will be obedient."

The Emperor nodded reluctantly, and sat down at the desk alone, fiddling with the newly made tiara. The crown is decorated with sea pearls from Nanzhou, which reflect the brilliance of the surrounding gems and broken jade. The old crown fell under the tree when he was secretly climbing a tree a few days ago, and the queen mother taught him a few words about "the danger of climbing trees", and when she turned around, she said that the crown did not need to be repaired. It would be nice to use only the best materials to recreate a better one.

The queen mother is the best person in the world for him. Always give him the most precious things, so every word of the queen mother is correct, and she must be obedient, otherwise the queen mother will be sad. Years. That's what the emperor told himself all along. And he's confident that he's been doing well. Except for the occasional sneaky play.

However, isn't it supposed to be a time for him to play happily at his age, not to mention that he is always helpless and aggrieved when meeting those strange strangers. Because he has to make an expressionless fierce appearance every time according to his words, and sometimes he has to memorize a few necessary words in advance, which is really annoying. If that's just it, what's even more annoying is that he once heard the man surnamed Zhang call himself a "fool" with disdain when he carried his mother, and it was this word that made him more and more reluctant to see those so-called important ministers of the court. Although he was naïve and casual, he could also hear that "fool" was a swear word, he felt bullied, but he disliked it, he was embarrassed to say it, and he didn't go to complain, so he had to silently suffer a muffled loss.

The Queen Mother did not know all the careful thoughts of the emperor in this short quarter of an hour, but she only knew that although he did not like to see outsiders very much, he was obedient enough, and while calling his attendants to dress him, she personally held a crown and tied his hair.

"The queen mother forgot to ask you, there are many portraits of the girl sent today, why did you choose that one?"

"It's pretty."

"Where is it good-looking, the appearance is not complete, carefully choose a pockmarked face to come in."

The words are a joke, no matter how bold Liu Zhong is, he will never dare to enter the palace with a pockmarked face. The emperor didn't understand, he just thought that his mother was really worried that he would choose the wrong person, and hurriedly defended.

"No, no, she's good-looking, I've seen it."

"Okay, okay, the good-looking person you've seen is definitely not a pockmark. In short, you should be happy. ”

As soon as these words came out, even the palace people who were waiting for him almost laughed. The Queen Mother shook her head again and again with a smile, and while coping with saying something good-looking, she didn't care in her heart, where would this stupid boy who had been hiding in the deep palace all day see any good-looking young lady of the Yin family.

Today's painting should have been the presence of the queen at the same time. The queen must be a little unhappy when she doesn't come to the hospital, after all, the emperor has never seen any concubines and concubines for many years, and now she is suddenly going to choose a group of women to enter the palace, even if it is still mostly nominally superficial, she still has some complaints in her heart.

The queen is gentle and virtuous, and has always been very good to the queen mother's mother and son, and it is rare to have a little temper, and the queen mother is not angry, but the emperor remembers to go to the queen's glass palace to eat at night, and at the same time obey her temperament. After thinking about it, he turned around and asked the palace people to send the portraits of the two selected girls together, and sent a message to the queen to come to meet him tomorrow afternoon.

A quiet selection of paintings, after nightfall, the two masters in the deep palace were not sleeping well. The emperor stayed in the Liuli Palace overnight, and the queen's heart disease no longer attacked, but he fell asleep soon and had a dream, and he saw other women in his dream for the first time. It was the woman in the scroll, he didn't know her name, but he remembered that she was good-looking and smiling, and there was a small tear mole under her eyelid.

The Queen Mother's Pranya Hall deliberately changed to a lighter benzoin at night, but this sleep still turned the dream upside down. In that long-lost dream, the Queen Mother was still a child who entered the palace at the beginning of the year, running all the way and laughing all the way after chasing the figure of a crimson dress, and leaning on the person's knee to talk when she was tired.

"Sister Lan, where are you from?"

"Farther north than the desert."

"Aren't there any peach blossoms there?"

"There is only yellow sand, no peach blossoms."

The dream is only halfway through, the person is already awake, and the sweat is dripping out of a cold sweat. She hadn't seen this dream for a long time, and she hadn't had such a sweet child's dream since the disappearance of Concubine Tong of the previous dynasty. Thinking about it, Xu is today's picture scroll is doing strange, eyebrows, eyes, nose bones, half of the painting is indeed a familiar appearance.

However, she knew very well in her heart that it was just a dream. She's old, and the alien woman named Tong Gelizulan won't come back, and no matter how similar she is, it won't be her. (To be continued......)
