Shisu listened to a pretty face as white as jade, slightly blue. Yang Muyun hurriedly said: "Sister, you came from afar, and I don't know my brother, otherwise I can still greet you!" ”

"Ouch, don't dare to do this," Yang Lan said with a slight pruning of the corners of her mouth: "You are different now than before, how dare I still work for you!" ”

"Look at what you said, sister, it really makes you feel embarrassed to be a younger brother," Yang Muyun laughed dryly, "You finally came to the capital, I must find a good place to pick you up and wash the dust." ”

"Why break the bank?" Yang Lan looked at Zhou Mengnan and said, "It's okay for the family to get together and have a good meal, but it makes people feel unaccustomed outside." ”

"Xianggong," Zhou Mengnan said to Yang Muyun with a smile: "Everything has been arranged for the concubine, and I am sure that my sister will be satisfied." ”

"Oh, that's good," Yang Muyun nodded, seeing them go back to the house, he took Zisu's hand, and wanted to follow, "Ouch......" His hand was pinched hard by Zisu, and he couldn't help but exhale pain.

"What's wrong?" Yang Lan turned around and asked.

"It's okay, it's okay," Yang Muyun hurriedly put his hand into his sleeve and said with a smile: "I was happy when I saw my sister, and I didn't see the road under my feet...... I almost broke my foot. ”

"It's such a big person, and it's so careless." Yang Lan glanced at her younger brother and returned to the hall with Zhou Mengnan.

"You go in," Shisu said with a stiff face and a wink at him, "I'll go back." With that, he wanted to turn around.

"Madame, what are you doing here?" Yang Muyun hurriedly grabbed her, "My sister came from Huzhou all the way, how can you not accompany her?" ”

"Who's your wife?" Shisu looked at the cotton curtain that was shaking by itself, "Didn't your wife accompany your sister in, and what are you pulling me for?" ”

"Madame angry?" Yang Muyun said with a smile: "If you have any anger, just rush at me, don't be rude in front of your sister." ”

"How dare the concubine be angry with Lord Yang?" Zi Su snorted and said, "Anyway, your sister can't look down on me, and she has Sister Zhou by her side, why should I go over to ask for it?" ”

"Madam......" Yang Muyun sighed, stomped his feet and said, "Okay, if you don't want to go, I'll just go with you." ”

"What?" Zi Su's bright eyes widened, and she said in surprise: "It's your sister sitting inside, where can you leave her?" I'm just a nameless concubine, so don't let me hurt the harmony of your siblings. ”

"Who said you were a nameless concubine? You are the wife that my Yang Muyun Ming Media is marrying," Yang Muyun looked at her solemnly and said: "You are the big media of Jinyi Weinan Town Fusi Zhen Fu Si Zhen Fu Envoy Shen Yun Shen Da Bao, the brothers of Quannan Town Fu Si watched me marry you as a wife, why do you have no name and no points?" Stretched out his hand and patted her fragrant shoulder, "Don't say any more frustrating words about the concubine, I don't like to hear it." ”

"But the concubine hasn't seen the elders of her husband's family......" Zi Su's heart warmed, her voice softened, and she expressed her worries in her heart.

"Isn't this just the time to see it," Yang Muyun said with a smile: "Although my sister speaks a little harshly, but in fact, she can't be more kind, maybe it's the first time I've seen you, she's not used to it." But it doesn't matter, with me by your side, I'll stand in the way for you. ”

"But what would I say if she asked me who I was?" Zi Su asked Yang Muyun with a pair of beautiful eyes.

"You just say that your father is the prime minister of the dynasty, and your mother is a first-class lady......"

Shisu laughed "poof", glanced at him and said, "Is there such a random arrangement by you?" ”

"Say whatever you want to save face," Yang Muyun said with a smile: "Anyway, my sister doesn't know your details, so if you want to make it up." ”

"your ......" Shisu raised his pink fist and smacked him, his eyes full of smiles.

"Let's go in," Yang Muyun took her hand, "It won't look good if people come out to urge." ”

"Hmm." Shisu bowed his head slightly, and let him take his hand and enter the hall.

After the dispersal of the dynasty on this day, Zhu Qizhen was discussing with several ministers in the Jinshen Palace

Incidentally, a small eunuch came in to report that the Queen Mother was occasionally feeling unwell. Zhu Qizhen's mother was very filial, and after hearing this, she sent those ministers back, and she was led by the little eunuch to Renshou Palace in a hurry.

As soon as he entered Renshou Palace, Zhu Qizhen crossed the high threshold and went straight to the Queen Mother's bedroom.

In the dormitory, the copper smoker burns with precious ambergris, which spreads out like curling green smoke, filling the room with a strange fragrance, and the smooth marble floor wants to shine a human figure. Turning the screen, Zhu Qizhen couldn't help but be stunned, Empress Dowager Sun was sitting on a mahogany phoenix chair and chatting with a palace lady about forty years old, looking at her smiling appearance, it didn't look like she was unwell.

"Your Majesty, you're here." When Empress Dowager Sun saw the emperor come in, she sat up slightly straighter.

"Your Majesty......" The palace lady also said hello to Zhu Qizhen.

"Concubine Wu is also here," Zhu Qizhen leaned slightly towards the palace lady and turned to the Empress Dowager Sun, "I heard that the Empress Dowager was sick, so I hurried over...... Have you ever seen the doctor? What is the disease? ”

"These minions are always making a fuss," Empress Dowager Sun smiled and shook her head slightly, glanced at Concubine Wu and said: "The mourning family just feels a little chest tightness and weakness, but fortunately, my sister came to see me and said a few words with me, and I feel much better." I didn't call the doctor. ”

Zhu Qizhen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Queen Mother, just in case, it's better to ask the imperial doctor to come and have a look." ”

"The mourning family really has nothing, the emperor doesn't have to worry," Empress Dowager Sun stared at Zhu Qizhen, "Since the emperor is here, he will accompany the mourning family to talk for a while, with you by the side of the mourning family, you can top a thousand imperial doctors!" ”

"Yes, Queen Mother." Zhu Qizhen responded respectfully.

At this time, Concubine Wu stood up and said to the Empress Dowager Sun: "My sister talked to the emperor, and my sister retired." ”

"What are you doing in such a hurry?" Empress Dowager Sun smiled at her and said, "Accompany the mourning family and the emperor to talk a little more." ”

"My sister has been bothering my sister for a long time," Concubine Wu glanced at the emperor with a smile, "My sister must have a lot of things to say to the emperor, how can my sister be so ......uninteresting," he said and greeted Zhu Qizhen again, turned around and left.

Seeing the figure of Concubine Wu disappearing at the door of the palace, Zhu Qi Zhenfang retracted his gaze and said to the Empress Dowager Sun: "Concubine She has always lived in a simple place, how can she have time to come to the Empress Dowager today?" ”

"Since the death of the first emperor and the empress dowager, how many old people are there in this palace? Seeing one side is also missing......" Empress Dowager Sun looked at him and said, "Your Majesty, sit down!" ”

"Empress Dowager Xie." Zhu Qizhen said and sat down on a mahogany phoenix chair.

"The emperor must be thirsty and hungry when he comes here in such a hurry," Empress Dowager Sun said in a loud voice: "Come here, serve tea, and bring snacks and cakes." ”

"Yes, Queen Mother." A red-robed old eunuch hurriedly beckoned the palace maid and eunuch to serve tea and snacks.

After the court meeting, Zhu Qizhen didn't eat much, and discussed with several ministers in the palace for a long time, and rushed over when he heard that the queen mother was uncomfortable, and he really felt a little hungry. I wanted to reach out and grab a snack to eat, and looked at the eunuch and palace maid standing on the side, hesitated, dusted off my robe, and looked like I was sitting upright.

Empress Dowager Sun saw through his thoughts, and said to those eunuchs and palace maids: "You all go down, I need you to wait for you to come up again." After they all retreated, he turned to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, there are only two of us left here, and you don't have to be restrained." ”

"Hmm......" Zhu Qizhen didn't wait for the Queen Mother's words to fall completely, he held the tea in one hand and the .asxs. heart in the other, and ate and drank.

Seeing the emperor gobbling up, Empress Dowager Sun was a little happy and felt a little distressed, "Your Majesty, it's good that you are diligent in political affairs, but you can't ignore a little bit of your dragon body, and you still need to bear the huge country!" ”

Zhu Qizhen didn't speak, stuffed a large piece of dim sum into his mouth, chewed it a few times and swallowed it, drank a few sips of tea, and took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth.

"How do these slaves serve the emperor?" Empress Dowager Sun said with some resentment: "Go back to the mourning family and withdraw them all and replace them with some old ......."

"The Queen Mother misunderstood," Zhu Qizhen said with a smile: "It was I who aimed to keep them from disturbing me when I was deliberating, and I deliberately came on an empty stomach, so I felt it."

The Queen Mother must have something delicious here, and sure enough, it's really a feast! Only here is the Queen Mother that I can become more free. ”

"It's such a big person, and it's so naughty," Empress Dowager Sun said with a smile: "If you think it's delicious, eat more, this pine nut lily crisp and osmanthus nectar steamed cake are your favorite food." ”

"Does the Queen Mother know that I will definitely come today?" Zhu Qizhen smiled, "The dim sum prepared is actually my favorite food." ”

"The emperor just doesn't come, and the mourning family has been preparing these snacks," Empress Dowager Sun's eyes seemed to be shrouded in a thin layer of mist, "Speaking of which, the emperor may not believe it, whether you are the prince or the emperor, the mourning family is here every day to prepare the snacks you like to eat, just hope that the emperor can ......eat them when you come over" The nose was sour, and tears overflowed into the eyes.

"I believe, I believe......" Zhu Qizhen hurriedly handed her a handkerchief to wipe her tears, "It's all my unfilial piety, I should have come over often to accompany the Queen Mother, but now it makes the Queen Mother sad." ”

"The emperor has every opportunity, how can the mourning family let the emperor come over from time to time," Empress Dowager Sun sighed: "But seeing the emperor working so hard, my heart as a mother is very uncomfortable, you know, the first emperor was not as tired as you when he was alive." ”

"My father is wise and martial, even if I dream of sleeping at night, it is difficult to compare with the first emperor," Zhu Qizhen said: "Since the foundation of the ancestors has fallen on me, I really don't dare to slack off!" ”

"The emperor is diligent in political affairs, and the mourning family has nothing to say," Empress Dowager Sun said: "But the queen and the harem concubines, the emperor can't be left out in the cold, and I also need someone to take care of it for you, right?" ”

Empress Dowager Sun's words made Zhu Qizhen smile, "What the Empress Dowager said is that Concubine Zhou is about to give birth, and several imperial doctors have seen it and said that she is a prince, and when she really gives birth to a Lin'er, I will put him here to raise him here, maybe when the Queen Mother likes it, she will forget about me." ”

"Look at you, they are all people who are about to become fathers, and they are not all right," Empress Dowager Sun said with a flickering eye: "I think that there were twenty-six princes under Emperor Taizu's knees, but when I arrived at Emperor Taizong, there were only three, and then there were only two brothers, you and Qi Yu, and then your father......

"I understand what you mean by the Queen Mother," Zhu Qizhen smiled and comforted her: "I am still young, and the days to come will be long, and when the time comes, maybe I will give birth to more than 20 princes like Taizu. ”

"Nonsense," Empress Dowager Sun said softly, and the corners of her mouth curled up and smiled: "Okay, Your Majesty, don't make the mourning family happy, if you still have political affairs, go and get busy first!" ”

"It's not a big deal," Zhu Qizhen said with a smile: "I'd better stay here with the Queen Mother for a while, I haven't sat down with the Queen Mother for a long time." ”

"Whatever you want, whatever you want," Empress Dowager Sun was happy, and her interest also rose, "If you have leisure, you can also go to Concubine Zhou to sit and sit there, so that she can wait for childbirth with peace of mind, just now Concubine Wu She also asked about Concubine Zhou!" ”

"Oh?" Zhu Qizhen's eyes flashed, "When the concubine came to the Queen Mother, it shouldn't be just to ask about Concubine Zhou's delivery, right?" ”

"It seems that the emperor is really big, and he can't hide anything from you?" Empress Dowager Sun sighed, looked at him and said, "The mourning family originally wanted to mention it to the emperor later, but since the emperor asked, the mourning family will say it now!" After a slight pause, she said slowly: "Concubine Wu, she came this time to tell the mourning family about Qi Yu. ”

"Qi Yu? What happened to him? Zhu Qizhen asked lightly.

"Your Majesty," Empress Dowager Sun said with a solemn face: "After the first emperor died, she left you and Qi Yu behind, when the Empress Dowager felt that the emperor was young, she left Qi Yu in the capital, and did not go to other places to become vassals." Now that the emperor is older, he is already in power, and he will soon have his own heirs, Qi Yu has no reason to stay in the capital......"

"I didn't say that I wanted to take Qi Yu out of Beijing?" Zhu Qizhen said calmly.

"But my Ming vassal king can't stay in Beijing, this is the ancestral system set by Emperor Taizu," Empress Dowager Sun said: "Besides, Qi Yu is an adult, and it is time to divide the field." Concubine Wu is Qi Yu's biological mother, so she naturally has to plan for her son. ”

"She wants to ask the Queen Mother to beg me to leave Qi Yu in the capital?" Zhu Qizhen frowned.

"No," Empress Dowager Sun shook her head slightly, "She is a smart person, and she will not ask the emperor to destroy the ancestral system." ”
