Chapter 13: Face to face
When it came time for supper, I was extremely uncomfortable, and if I asked why, I thought His Majesty might have been irritated.
Your Majesty actually served me vegetables.
But he still didn't look at me the whole time, grabbed the fish, didn't look up, and inserted it directly into my bowl. I thought I was asking me to pick on him, and I thought to myself, isn't he disgusting?
After picking for a long time, he found that there was none, and just about to clip him back, he got angry, and glared at me with frowns: "What? The queen dislikes me and doesn't want to eat it?! ”
I was startled by his roar, and subconsciously stuffed a chopstick into my mouth and said that the concubine didn't dare. He glared at me as he slowly lowered his head to eat.
How have I sinned against him? It's torture! It's too tormenting, this is more tiring than I am facing a harem of women, the ancients said that it is true that a companion is like a tiger, it seems that he will have to be farther away from him in the future.
I finished my meal with trepidation, pondered my vocabulary, and wanted to leave, but he asked me to play chess with him。。。。。
I have a pair of falling pieces, His Majesty's chess style is particularly weird, I thought he was going to surround me when he opened his mouth very wide. I was still hesitating whether it was a trap or not, and winning or losing was a foregone conclusion.
"Your Majesty's chess skills are so superb, the concubines are obedient. Well,,,,, concubine's clumsy art won't disturb Your Majesty's Yaxing, wait for the concubine to go back and study carefully, and then learn from Your Majesty another day, how about it? ”
He separated the white and black sons, picked them up one by one, and said slowly: "The fastest way to improve your skills is to compete with people who are more skilled than you, only reading the theories in the books, it is useless." ”
I think he just wanted to see me lose.
Good.
Good.
I don't believe I can still go without winning?
After a long time, I forgot exactly how many fights I had lost that night, and I only remember how he killed me from being more and more frustrated to giving up on himself. It almost made me cry.
Later, I really didn't want to talk to him, I didn't even look at him, I threw off the chess pieces and turned around and left, damn, it's too bullying, don't bring this. Walking out the door, I heard a burst of laughter from inside.
This man! Sure enough, it was deliberate!
The cold came and the summer came and went, and in the blink of an eye, it was summer.
At the beginning, many people in the palace were talking about the deceased Concubine De, and His Majesty and I, as we said at the beginning, caught the palace maid and eunuch and killed them directly.
It wasn't until Concubine Li made a lot of nonsense and was disrespectful to Concubine De that His Majesty was angry and fell to Zhaoyi's grounding, that the matter slowly faded down, and no one dared to mention it again.
A small country on the southwestern border was restless, and sent General Zhenxi to suppress it, only to restore Han Zhaoyi to the position of Concubine Li and release her. The original Luo Zhaoyi was actually grounded until the summer, and there is no news yet, I want to find an opportunity to find a reason to mention her to His Majesty, don't forget this person.
Wang Meiren is seven months pregnant, and I have been taking strict care of her, and there is nothing wrong with her.
After Concubine Li was reinstated, she ran to His Majesty every day, but it was the same as before.
If anything, it's my relationship with Your Majesty.
I thought it was very strange, it seemed that because I knew the secret of Concubine De, he began to smile at me, and had nothing to do with me to ask me to do chores for him, I protested at first, but then the protest was ineffective.
His Majesty also began to come to my palace, most of them sat for a while, or they were angry with me, and the more I opened my teeth and claws, the happier he became, and when he was happy with me, he went to someone else's palace.
What the is that?
Isn't the old lady human?
The strangest thing is that he occasionally stays in my palace during the New Year's holidays, but never sleeps with me. It's weird, I don't know what he means.
What is different from before is his attitude towards the concubines of the palace, originally he was only good to Sun Miaohua, and others were indifferent. Now, he seems to be kind to everyone, but no one is as pampered as Concubine De anymore.
Your Majesty's most place is the Qinzheng Palace, and each of the concubines almost shares the rest of the nights equally in a month, and everyone is about the same. But he may just not sleep with me.
It seems that Concubine De will become a legend, but maybe, after all, it is only half a year before Concubine De dies. Everyone is very young, and I don't know who will be beautiful in the future.
If there is anyone in the palace who has been busy with any major events recently, it is me, and there are still a few days, which is the birthday of the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother meant to do it casually, what I wanted was to clean it up, and the people from the Ministry of Rites came over and said, Your Majesty ordered it to be done according to my heart. I thought about doing a festive celebration, so that the queen mother could be happy, and invited some court wives, princes and ministers, my father and mother were among them.
It's normal for my father and mother to come, my father is in a high position, and he is His Majesty's father-in-law, not to mention that the Queen Mother and my family have some cousins, and the two of them should come.
I haven't seen my mother for a long time, and I'm a little excited, and I seem to be brisk in doing things, and Zhiyu still laughs at me for being childish.
On my birthday, I got up early in the morning and went to my mother's harem, and sent out the phoenix hairpin that I had been working with a skilled craftsman for a long time.
"You kid, what do you do with such a flowered hairpin from an old woman in the mourning family, an old woman in the mourning family, you don't need these, you put it away quickly."
"What are you talking about, Queen Mother! Your appearance is better than that of your concubines! The South China Sea shark pearl is only ashamed in front of you! This phoenix hairpin fell on your head, and I was too quiet. ”
"You girl, your mouth is getting sweeter!" The queen mother was coaxed happy by me at a glance, I smiled, and hurriedly stepped forward to put on the hairpin for her, it was really good-looking, and the queen mother was born dignified, and she could suppress the phoenix hairpin.
As soon as I put it on, everyone in the palace immediately praised it for its good looks, and the Queen Mother was happy and rewarded me with a lot of things.
"Your parents are about to enter the palace at this time, so I can take advantage of this reason to come and see you." I want to nod like a chicken pecking rice, indeed I am super happy, I will be able to see my father, mother and eldest brother soon, this is the first time I have seen them since His Majesty ascended the throne, and I can't wait to go back to the palace immediately.
"Go back and wait, don't turn around in front of my old woman, I'm calling you at the banquet."
After saying a bunch of auspicious words, I rushed back to the palace, and sat in the main hall and waited excitedly.
"! The old lady and the eldest young master are here! ”
Before Zhiyu finished speaking, I swooped out and saw the three of them from afar. I couldn't hold back the excitement, who didn't care what the queen was or not, so I waved at them with my feet up.
"Mother! Daddy! Eldest brother! ”
They walked quickly, but when they came to me, they all bowed down to me, "Say hello to the queen." ”
I hurriedly helped them up, I hadn't seen them for a year, and I felt a lot of emotion in my heart. Regardless of the sadness, I hurriedly picked up my mother and led them to the palace.
"You kid, you've been sitting on the queen's throne for a year, why are you still so reckless......"
"Oh, mother! It's hard to see you once, and you don't want to mention your life! Don't you even want me? ”
"What nonsense are you talking about, how can I not want you!" My mother looked at me with disgust and nodded my head with her hand. I smiled and looked at my eldest brother.
"How is the career of the eldest brother, but it is still going well, how is my little nephew."
The eldest brother smiled, "It's all good!" Me and your sister-in-law, and Qu'er are all good! It's not like you're a girl! He tried to reach out and pinch my face, but he stopped and patted me on the shoulder.
My heart was dull, and I looked up and smiled, "I'm all right!" His Majesty treats me very well and gets along well with the sisters in the palace. "When I heard me say that the sisters in the palace stopped talking. It was my father who took the lead in opening his mouth, "Yue'er, it is rumored in the court that the Xiongnu have the intention of making peace, can you listen to Your Majesty?" ”
After listening, I didn't say anything, bowed to my father, and said seriously, "Father is cautious, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, Your Majesty's mind, and my daughter does not dare to speculate." ”
When the father heard this, he nodded with satisfaction, and the eldest brother also said with admiration, "Our little Yue'er has grown up!" ”
I listened, looked at them, walking on thin ice in the harem, I don't have a sacred heart, I have to be careful in everything I say and do, how can I let others catch my mistakes and affect the people in front of me who cherish me?
I sighed softly in my heart and said, "You don't have to worry about me, I have nothing to do, I sat on a pair of tiger head shoes for Qu'er, and you will bring Qu'er back after the banquet." ”
My mother touched my head and asked me if I wanted to meet the Queen Mother, and I said that the Queen Mother specially instructed that I would not see anyone else first, and we would see each other at the banquet.
I saw that there was still some hour before the feast, so I ordered the kitchenette to bring some food and make up for them.
We were eating snacks and chatting about homely things, and an uninvited guest came.
