"Ouch-"

Shunhua, who had been practicing diligently recently, reflexively twisted the old mama's wrist, and by the time she reacted, it was too late.

"You dare to touch the palace maid of the mourning family!" The Queen Mother exclaimed in disbelief.

Shunhua quickly let go of his hand and knelt on the ground.

"Back to the Queen Mother, the women didn't know that the Queen Mother ordered her to come over and catch the women, so she accidentally shot it."

"Accidentally shooting? Listen to what you mean, or is it the fault of the mourning family? ”

The Queen Mother looked at Shunhua's exposed arm and confirmed what she wanted to know.

"The women don't dare, the Queen Mother is the biological mother of the Son of Heaven, and she is a mother who loves the people like a son and has a bodhisattva's heart, how can she blame me, a common man who doesn't understand the rules."

Hearing this, the old lady was a little angry.

According to her, if she punishes her sins, she will be sorry for the two words she said, loving the people like a son, and the words of the Bodhisattva's heart.

"This palace summoned you this time to ask you something clearly."

As soon as the words fell, the old lady retreated, leaving only the little palace maid who often served beside her and herself, staying by the side of the queen mother.

Shunhua rolled his eyes and looked around casually, feeling a little scared.

The people who retired from the palace didn't want to solve her in private.

"What is the relationship between you and Little Thirteen?"

The kind-eyed Queen Mother looked at the little woman in front of her with suspicion, and her tone was more than just curious.

"People's woman, I don't understand the Queen Mother's words." The woman didn't dare to answer easily.

Seeing this, the old lady urged in a slender voice: "The Queen Mother is asking you, what are you doing on your knees stupidly, just keep your duty and answer well." ”

Hearing this, Shun Hua raised half of the corners of his mouth and smiled coldly.

"You are so bold, if you don't answer the Queen Mother's words truthfully, you dare to laugh here?" The old lady looked at her in amazement, as if... If you don't find something wrong with her, you feel uncomfortable.

"The women are laughing, some dogs, the owner hasn't spoken yet, it barks hard, for fear that others won't know that it is someone else's dog."

As soon as the words fell, the old lady was stunned, and instantly became so angry that her face was red and her nose was thick.

"How dare you scold me..."

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Shunhua.

"What a bold man, don't you want to call yourself me in front of the Queen Mother? I don't know, what kind of relationship you have with the Queen Mother, you actually think that you can be on an equal footing with the Queen Mother. ”

This trick is called 'treating others in the way of others', the fox is fake and the tiger is mighty, who wouldn't.

After that, someone raised the corners of his evil mouth, and in a few words, he 'pushed' this trouble-stirring grandmother to the edge of the cliff.

Originally, the Queen Mother didn't think that after Shunhua said this, she also began to feel that this old lady was a little noisy, and moreover, it was a little annoying.

"Alright, you can go down." The old woman said coldly.

"But..."

The old lady just wanted to say something, but when she looked at the queen mother, she suddenly felt that a catastrophe was coming, so she hurriedly saluted and went out.

"The people are gone, and it's time for you to tell the truth."

"Back to the Queen Mother, in this way, maybe it is the people's women who have climbed high, and the people's women and the thirteen princes are friends."

"Friends?"

The answer to this question made the Queen Mother want to laugh a little.

"Does anyone believe what you say? How can men and women become friends, people must abide by their duties as soon as they are born, know etiquette and abide by virtue, not to mention, you are married to a wife, the grandchildren of the mourning family are the dragons and phoenixes among the people, the royal family and nobles, no matter the identity and status, you should not be friends. ”

She understood, the Queen Mother specially summoned her over just to tell her - aren't you worthy of being my grandson's friend?

Shunhua's eyes sank, and he asked coldly:

"The women understand, and ask the Queen Mother to say clearly, what do you want the women to do?"

"It's good to understand, in the future, if Xiao Thirteen goes to Yan's Mansion, you have to close the door, if he asks you to travel, you have to find an excuse to excuse yourself, in short, the mourning family doesn't want to hear the rumors about you anymore, you know?" The Queen Mother said with a tough attitude.

is really worthy of being a person who gave birth to an emperor, and what he said is unreasonable and domineering.

Her grandson is a prince, if he has to come to play with her, can she, a commoner, still be able to drive him out of the mansion, can't she?

"Back to the Queen Mother, the women understand, in the future, if the thirteen princes dare to step into the Yan family half a step, the women will be ordered, let the slave take the broom, beat him out alive, if the thirteen princes are 'dead', the women will shout, 'these are the will of the Queen Mother', let the maids line up into a wall, let the thirteen princes come once, vomit once, come once, faint once."

Shunhua deliberately said the opposite words loudly, which instantly made the Queen Mother angry.

"You dare! The noble body of the mourning grandson, how can you be bullied casually! ”

"Back to the Queen Mother, people's hearts cannot be controlled, the tongue stands on others, they want to chew the root of the tongue, the women can't stop it, as the Queen Mother said, the women are just ordinary people, neither have the right nor the power, how can they stop the noble thirteen princes from coming to the house as guests, in addition to these radical means, the women can't think of any other way."

Shunhua raised his sleeves to cover his face, and 'cried miserably', and the entire Renshou Palace was filled with women's cries, sounding like the Empress Dowager, who was famous for her kindness, was torturing people.

"Enough, if you cry again, the mourning family will let others slap your mouth."

As soon as the words fell, the crying stopped abruptly.

The woman who pretended to cry knew the weakness of the Queen Mother, and her kindness was just the kindness of habit.

Even if the Dragon Mother Temple was built, after all, after such a nightmare, being kind to others has long been a habit, and if it is easily broken, it will touch the shadow in your heart.

Relive the nightmare.

"Okay, you go back, you must not mention today's events to anyone, especially Little Thirteen." The Queen Mother, who was frowning, was already tired of Shunhua's crying.

"People's women, follow the decree of the Queen Mother."

After Shunhua saluted, she slowly turned around, today, she offended the queen mother, but so what, she was happy.

*

It was night, the night sky like Lan Venus, the moon was cloudy, and the cool breeze gently blew the red lanterns hanging high, swaying slightly in the wind along the two painting boats that went hand in hand.

"Little prince, you look very happy."

Guard Lan looked at Xiao Thirteen, who had a big appetite, in amazement, eating in a big gulp.

"Why do you ask that, shouldn't this king be upset?" Xiao Thirteen picked up a piece of delicate pastry and asked in astonishment.

Guard Lan bent down, leaned into Xiao Thirteen's ear, and whispered: "My subordinates still think that you hate to participate in the blind date banquet arranged by the Queen Mother the most, but it is rare that the Queen Mother listened to the words of the Imperial Doctor last time, and she was afraid that it would endanger your life, so she stopped for a few days." ”

"Maybe this king doesn't have to sit at the same table with those noble girls, Lan Guard, you can also sit down and eat something, anyway, today, the Queen Mother can't see it..."

As soon as Xiao Thirteen wanted to say this, a huge painting boat passed by, and compared to it, Xiao Thirteen felt that the boat he was on was a small boat.

What's even more weird is that the Queen Mother is sitting on the painting boat, looking at herself with a smile, the lights are unknown at night, and the Queen Mother's face is flickering and dark, looking so terrifying.

The pastry on the chopsticks suddenly fell back into the plate.

"Little prince, what's wrong with you, it looks like you've seen a ghost..."

Guard Lan also turned his head to look, and was instantly shocked by the picture, unable to speak for a long time.

"Damn, why is Fengchengjun's annoying sycophant on it, and this king won't eat it." Little Thirteen put down his chopsticks in a huff.

"Little prince, in this way, I am afraid that this blind date banquet is not simple, do you want your subordinates to arrange it to prevent someone from cheating." Guard Lan kindly reminded.

"Won't it?" Xiao Thirteen frowned slightly, "The imperial grandmother loves this king so much, how can she dig a pit and frame me, but that insidious and cunning villain has to be guarded against." ”

Guard Lan was a little surprised, he thought that the little prince was just having a bad relationship with Fengchengjun, but he didn't expect that the little prince would have such an evaluation of Fengchengjun.

"Little prince, have you had a holiday with Fengchengjun?"

Xiao Thirteen paused, and snorted coldly: "It's not just a festival, it's just an enemy who sticks the wrong door god, this king doesn't know where to provoke him, every time, this king is praised by Taifu, he must make some small moves behind his back, stain this king's books, steal the articles written by this king, it's not unusual, even this king suffers from misogyny, he wants to..."

"What is he going to do?" Guard Lan asked curiously.

"Do you remember when you first entered the mansion, this king would faint at the gate every time he went out?"

The little prince reluctantly talked about the unbearable old past.

"Yes."

Guard Lan nodded. Recalled:

"That little prince and the last general are not familiar with each other, and they are not allowed to follow anywhere, and later, I don't know what the reason is, every time you go out, there is not enough time for half a stick of incense, you will faint and be carried back."

"It's all the ghosts of Fengchengjun and his own sister, every time the king goes to the street to play, he asks his sister to come over and touch the king, as a result, he falls back at the gate of the prince's mansion, and over time, the king is unwilling to interact with people."

"So that's the case, the last general thought that the prince was so unlucky, and he met a woman as soon as he went out."

As soon as the words fell, a gong rang in my ears.

"Lord Wang, it seems that your blind date banquet has begun, this time the Queen Mother is determined to let you marry a side concubine, what should I do?"

Hearing this, Xiao Thirteen waved his hand and said with a smile: "What else can I do, cold salad, when this king marries this side concubine, let him live in the nunnery of the prince's mansion and live with other women who bring hair and practice, anyway, the prince's mansion is big enough, one more person, more pairs of chopsticks." ”

"......" Guard Lan said admiringly: "It's rare that the prince thinks so thoroughly, and the last general is here to bless that girl, hoping that she can devote herself to the Buddha and see through the red dust as soon as possible." ”

"Well said, yes, that's how it should be."

At this time, the painting boat on the opposite side had already stood in a row of women dressed in red, carrying lanterns, but covering their faces, as if they could immediately marry the prince if they were selected, and they were very well prepared.

The deacons and eunuchs took the roll call book and the brush and counted them one by one.

"Eighty-seven, eighty-eight, eighty-nine? How could there be eighty-nine? Obviously, the Queen Mother wanted a happy number, and only invited eighty-eight noble girls on the boat? ”

The little eunuch muttered to himself in confusion, and just wanted to re-roll the name, but raised his eyes to meet the eyes of the Queen Mother.

"That's it, eighty-nine is eighty-nine, if it angers the Queen Mother, even if there are ninety heads, it won't work."

The trembling little eunuch cleared his throat and shouted in a clear voice: "The first, Qianjin of Longzhou Thorn History, Sima Jingshu, Fang Ling Sixteen, is good at singing and dancing, guzheng, knows seven Chinese dialects, qinqi calligraphy and painting, is proficient in everything, and the lantern inscription is - Zhixin." ”

Hearing the sound, the Lan guards looked from a distance, although the woman fanned and couldn't see her face, but looking at her dress and beautiful long hair, she was really worthy of her talents. ”

The Queen Mother's gaze was behind her, and the Lan guard stood straight to the side, baring his teeth happily and asking.

"Little prince, what do you think?"

How do you know, Xiao Thirteen scratched his forehead and asked: "Fang Cai, what did the eunuch say, this king ate too many pastries, and he was a little sleepy, and he forgot it all." ”

Hearing this, the Lan guard explained in a panic: "If you don't ring the bell before the gong rings, this woman will become your concubine tonight." ”

"What? You don't say it sooner. ”
