When Aunt Cui returned to Liuli Palace, the emperor was curling her hair for the empress.

The emperor doesn't like to write and write, but he is very clever in playing in the corners. Those newly learned bun patterns are just a look at a miscellaneous book, and a few palace people teach them casually, and they can directly get started with flowers.

The dormitory was silent and burning with light incense, and the windless sunlight outside the window was just right, and the hollow carved window lattice fluttered and sprinkled on the two of them. The queen's long hair was half-scattered, reflecting the sunlight and shining brightly, and the emperor was half-kneeling behind him, holding a grate comb, combing slowly, and braiding his hair intently.

The long hair stained with flower oil is like a lively black fish, which always slips from his fingers in an instant without obeying the call. The emperor was playful for a while, so he simply picked a strand of his hair and twisted it with a strand of the queen's long hair, flipped his fingers a few times to tie a knot, and after a little thought, he lowered his head and gently left a lip mark in the center of the knot.

Obviously it was a lip print on the tip of her hair, but the queen, who was focused on the embroidered image in her hand, seemed to have a sense at the same time, and smiled and said that her hair should be knotted if she combed it like this again.

Aunt Cui lowered her head consciously as usual, and waited outside the threshold of the inner hall for a moment, until the two laughed for a while before knocking on the door in return.

"Qi Yu Niangniang, the person is gone."

"Oh? How does it look? ”

"It seems to be sad, but there is no annoyance."

The queen reached out to untie the knots in their hair and re-combed the concentric buckle that was tied into a symbol, while talking to Aunt Cui casually, asking Yin Suwen about her reaction after being rejected.

"Do you have anything else?"

"Neither at all."

Aunt Cui retired. The queen thought back to the daughter of the Yin family, but the corners of her lips were filled with a playful smile.

"What's so happy about Zipei?"

The emperor had obtained a string of fine coral beads the day before yesterday, and at this moment he was struggling to disassemble the bead lead, and when he saw the queen laughing spontaneously, he couldn't help but come to his side and ask. The queen didn't tell him anything, but only grabbed the beads in one hand and pulled the people around her closer in the other, and said a joke that was not what she asked.

"It's been quiet in this palace for too long, I'm afraid I'm going to have a good show in the future."

When I first met Yin Suwen, I only felt that she was a little red flower in the cry of the green willow warbler, but she was originally special but put a hazy veil on herself, always pretending to be unconcerned about herself. Practical but clever and careful. Think about it later. The queen also felt that her appearance was familiar, but she couldn't remember it for a while, but now she remembered everything.

The appearance of the daughter of the Yin family is clearly not much different from the woman on an old painting hidden by the Queen Mother.

In addition to the dormitory and the Buddha hall. The Queen Mother only goes to one Linlang Pavilion most often on weekdays. It was nominally a sub-hall for the Prajna Temple. In fact, it can be regarded as a small treasure pavilion.

The Golden Palace is a collection of treasures and treasures of the whole country, rare tributes handed over from all over the place or extraordinary objects that are rare to see among the people, but all kinds of treasures obtained by the Queen Mother are collected in this place and guarded by heavy soldiers day and night, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a small treasury.

The Queen Mother often lingers in the Linlang Pavilion on weekdays. A stay is a small half a day, but she herself is never extravagant, and she has always been generous to the people around her, and more often in her personal name, she has been a veritable "benefactor" openly and secretly. After seeing a lot, the queen felt that her queen mother was not like a layman who valued yellow and white things, and she would sometimes go around the pavilion with her.

Everything was fine, until one time I accidentally bumped into an old painting and was banned, and no one was allowed to enter the Linlang Pavilion for half a step after that.

In fact, it was just an ordinary old painting, and the painting was not a common brushstroke, except for the precious jewel box that contained the painting, but there was nothing special from the painting paper to the painting scroll. The only thing that is special is that the woman in the picture scroll is delicate and vivid, very good-looking, with a high nose and thin lips, and a pink face, especially a pair of spring-like eyes, the veins are affectionate and a little sad, and when the eyes look closely, they feel that they are aqua blue.

This old thing happened when the queen was first established, and she still had some curiosity of a little girl at that time, so she got up to Linlang Pavilion and turned out this old work and asked the queen mother why the woman in this painting had light blue eyes, who knew that this question almost caused a big disaster.

If the queen were to look back on the situation at that time, I am afraid that she would not be able to describe any other feelings than surprise and strangeness. She had never seen such a queen mother, panicked and angry, and even had a trace of imperceptible sadness.

The empress dowager, seeing her holding the portrait, instantly threw away the notebook in her hand and snatched the scroll into her hand with one hand. Her face was still full of anger and resentment, and she scolded her for "great rebellion", but the gesture of holding the scroll was extremely gentle, as if she was afraid of waking up the person hiding in the painting.

The young queen was stunned for a moment, and the next moment she knelt down on the top of the hall in fright and suddenly confessed her guilt. She sincerely begged for a sentence of "I beg the queen mother to forgive her son for being reckless for a while", but she still wondered in her heart, but it was just an ordinary painting that had been old for a long time, how could it be so aggressive, and what kind of "big rebellion" had become.

However, after kneeling for half an hour, she still suppressed that little doubt. Because when she quietly looked up, she saw that the Queen Mother was holding a soft towel and carefully checking and wiping the dust on the scroll, and there was clearly a little tears hidden in her eyes.

That was the first time she saw that old painting, and the first time she saw the Queen Mother who would shed tears. She was no longer curious or angry, she only felt that the person on the painting looked pitiful, and the queen mother who looked at the painting was also very pitiful.

For the queen, the daughter of the Yin family was originally the one who could be taken for her own use, but she had a troublesome old face. Since she is a person who has some entanglements with the Queen Mother, she corrected her attitude early, not looking at it or getting closer, and the farther away the better.

The prayers in the Buddhist hall ended early, and Yin Suwen didn't have time to report the visit, but as soon as he arrived, he saw a huge procession of attendants going up the palace road. In a hurry, she had to stand on the side of the palace road and wait, and when Luan drove by, she knelt down to say goodbye, and called out a sentence, "The Queen Mother is safe." ”

The crowd stopped in front of Yin Suwen, but the Queen Mother didn't answer her, but Shi Ran got off the sedan chair and walked to her side.

The Queen Mother was dressed in bright yellow gold, with some Buddha fragrance in the Buddha hall, standing in front of Yin Suwen while being wrapped in a layer of heavy sunlight, condescending like a god and Buddha looking down on all beings.

"Since you're here, let's go with the mourning family."

At this time, it was not the time to say hello, Yin Su asked suddenly, but the Queen Mother didn't seem to be surprised by her arrival, nor did she ask her directly, only her jade hand was crossed in front of her as a false help to get up. (To be continued.) )
