Zhao Che ordered to summon people into the palace, still in the name of curing diseases and saving people, even if the Marquis of Lingyang had many concerns in his heart, he couldn't find a good reason to refuse.

thanked him, immediately asked people to pack their luggage, and in the evening of the same day, Si Ruoya and Sun Yuehai returned to the palace together.

It stands to reason that Si Ruo Aya, a junior, should live with the concubine if he doesn't live in a separate palace, so that it is more decent.

But Sun Yuehai directly brought people to Chenhua Palace, where Zhao Che lived.

When they arrived, Zhao Che was having dinner, knowing that Si Ruoya would come, and there were six dishes for dinner, four dishes and two soups, and he looked very appetizing.

Si Ruoya was very uneasy all the way, and after entering the house and seeing a table of hot dishes, his eyes lit up a little, and he subconsciously swallowed his saliva, but he was not so afraid.

Sun Yuehai pulled her sleeve and motioned her to salute quickly, Si Ruoya was stunned for a while before reacting, knelt down and said, "Meet Your Majesty." ”

Her tone was dry, a little tiger, Zhao Che lifted her eyes and looked at her, she remembered her father's advice at home, and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, let the imperial doctor of the Tai Hospital diagnose and treat me, I will be obedient and obedient, and I will definitely not make trouble for Your Majesty." ”

Zhao Che stared at her for a while and said, "Get up." ”

Si Ruoya immediately got up, and without waiting for Zhao Che to greet him, he sat down opposite him very consciously, glanced at the food on the table, licked his lips and asked, "Can I ask for a bowl of rice?" ”

When she was at home, she ate rice at every meal.

Zhao Che asked people to add rice to her, and Si Ruoya thanked her obediently, and then ate in a muffled voice.

She is actually very regular when she eats, she doesn't talk nonsense, she doesn't make a loud noise, but she can't see anything else in her eyes except food.

After eating, the palace people took Si Ruoya down to rest, Sun Yuehai served hot tea to relieve his greasy, Zhao Che took a sip and asked Sun Yuehai: "What do you think of this young lady of the Si family?" ”

Sun Yuehai can be regarded as watching Zhao Che grow up, and he has been with Zhao Che for three years, but he still can't understand what Zhao Che is thinking.

Sun Yuehai couldn't tell what Zhao Che meant by asking this sentence, so he pondered for a while and said: "The slave looks at Miss Si to be more innocent and lively than the usual Miss of the family, the Marquis of Lingyang and his wife love Miss Si very much, Miss Si is a little clingy and afraid of life, as for the rest, the slave is stupid and can't see anything, and I ask Your Majesty to forgive me." ”

Zhao Che listened, drank tea slowly and didn't speak again.

After sitting for a while, the palace people moved in the unfinished official business, and Zhao Che sat until the end of the hour.

Si Ruoya had already slept in the side hall, and Zhao Che heard that she was crying before going to bed, so he went to the side hall to take a look.

The little girl's sleeping position was very insecure, curled up in a ball like a shrimp, and it took up a small area in the corner of the bed, like a young animal that had been taken from the mountains.

When you get closer, you can see that the tip of the little girl's nose is red, and there are tears on her eyelashes, aggrieved and pitiful.

The palace people were also softened by her crying, and took a small pillow for her to hold as comfort.

Inexplicably, Zhao Che thought that when the first empress had just passed away, he was also afraid of being alone, but Emperor Hengde said that he was the prince of Zhaoling and the future emperor, and he should not be afraid.

Fragile.

How can anyone in this world be protected all the time without facing fear?

Zhao Che's eyes narrowed slightly, and he pulled the small pillow out of Si Ruoya's arms.

Si Ruoya slept soundly, but she was not awakened, but when the palace people saw Zhao Che take the small pillow away, it was as if they had seen a ghost.

Your Majesty, what are you doing grabbing pillows with other little girls?

Shen Bai only learned that Si Ruoya had been summoned to the palace when Si Ruoya came to see her.

After the cold spring, the weather cleared and slowly warmed up, Shen Bai was still afraid of the cold, and the cough did not stop, wrapped in a cotton jacket like a little old lady, Gu Hengzhou would enter the palace to see her after finishing the errand assigned by Zhao Che every day, and stay in the palace when it was late, the palace people have long been used to it, and it doesn't matter if it is in line with the rules or not, just wait for it.

Gu Hengzhou didn't have anything to do that day, and seeing that Shen Baicheng was huddled in the house day by day, he didn't have any energy at all, so he dug her out of the bed and asked her to bask in the sun outside.

Shen Bai resisted at first, but when the warm sun was shining on his body, he felt a lot happier, like a grass that had not seen the sun for a long time, and finally regained a little vitality.

Shen Bai's situation is not optimistic, Murong Xuan wrote several letters back to Nanxiang, but the two places are thousands of miles away, and Dongfang's reply doesn't know when it will be sent back, Murong Xuan is a little anxious, and he is also afraid of Gu Hengzhou's questioning, and he deliberately avoids him when Gu Hengzhou is there.

Si Ruoya had never seen Gu Hengzhou, and when she saw him, she hid behind the pillar and didn't dare to step forward, but she wouldn't hide her breath and footsteps, Gu Hengzhou immediately noticed her arrival and took the person out from behind the pillar.

Si Ruoya was so frightened that she didn't dare to move, she was obediently carried in front of Shen Bai by Gu Hengzhou, and called softly and glutinously: "Sister Kite." ”

Shen Bai glanced at Gu Hengzhou, asked him to let go of Si Ruo Aya, took Si Aya's hand and greeted him eagerly: "Sister Aya'er hasn't seen you for a long time, why did you enter the palace again?" ”

Si Ruo Aya said: "Your Majesty let me go into the palace to recuperate, I have been taking medicine well recently, and there is no more that." ”

Si Ruoyan said with a red face, and gently bit her lower lip after speaking, still very guilty.

Shen Bai didn't expect her to enter the palace to recuperate, and asked suspiciously: "My sister looks good, where is she sick?" ”

Si Ruoya looked at her, her eyes were very bright and firm, and she said earnestly: "I'm sick, I've been sick since a long time ago, and my father and brother don't dare to let me go out alone, just because I'm afraid that I will get into trouble if I get sick." ”

Although it is not normal to still urinate on the kang at this age, Shen Bai doesn't think it's a big problem, but seeing that Si Ruoya said so seriously, Shen Bai couldn't help but ask more: "Has my sister been sick before, and what was it like when she got sick?" ”

Si Ruo Aya's brows furrowed, and after thinking for a long time, he said: "I don't remember what happened when I got sick, but I heard my brother say that when I was sick before, I would climb up the tree to dig out birds' nests, and I would secretly go out over the wall to play, and ...... They also get into fights. ”

“……”

Shen Bai and Gu Hengzhou fell silent, and inexplicably felt that the illness described by Si Ruoyan was very similar to Shen Bai.

Si Ruoya was originally ashamed to tell others about his illness, but seeing that Shen Bai and Gu Hengzhou didn't speak, he quickly explained: "I'm ...... I don't usually do this, although my father and brother spoil me, but never dot on me, the first time I got sick climbing a tree and fell down, and I broke my foot, and then they looked at me very strictly. ”

Si Ruo's eyes were wide open, quite innocent, Shen Bai hesitated for a moment and asked, "What induced Sister Aya'er's illness several times?" ”

Si Ruoya was silent, and after a while, she said sullenly: "I don't know, it's just that every time I wake up, my mother and father and brother will look at me very worriedly, and I don't want them to worry, if only I could find a way to cure my illness this time." ”

Si Ruo Aya said a little depressed, if she hadn't been sick, her father wouldn't have been so worried about her.

Shen Bai comforted Si Ruoya for a while, and asked the palace people to bring delicious pastries, she became happy after eating a few bites, and left happily.

Shen Bai pondered Si Ruo's situation, Gu Hengzhou suddenly said: "In the past few days, I have asked someone to secretly investigate, she was sick because she fell into the water four years ago, and coincidentally, the day she fell into the water happened to be the day you woke up from Tai Academy. ”

The wake up in Gu Hengzhou's mouth was the day when Shen Bai was reborn and forcibly kissed him.

This incident caused quite a stir in Hanjing, and it is normal for people to remember it deeply, but most people don't think that there may be any connection behind these two things.

Shen Bai's eyelashes trembled slightly, looked at Gu Hengzhou and asked, "Brother Gu thinks Miss Si has a problem?" ”

Shen Bai also felt that these two things were a little strange together, but she didn't feel any aggression from Si Ruo Aya, and she had no intersection with Si Ruo Aya before, so Si Ruo Aya had no reason to harm her at all.

Gu Hengzhou stroked Shen Bai's cheeks, she had been sick for a long time, her face was very pale, and her body was also sickly, Gu Hengzhou whispered: "I'm not sure if she has a problem, I just hope you can get better soon, and in two days, Your Majesty will give us a marriage, and then you can live in the Prime Minister's Mansion first." ”

His movements were very gentle, and his voice was full of restraint, Shen Bai rubbed his palm with his cheek and whispered, "Well, I will get better soon." "Love me

The two talked for a while, and Shen Bai was so lazy from the sun that he couldn't help but feel sleepy again, yawned twice, and fell into a deep sleep.

Gu Hengzhou sat next to him, stared at her for a long time, and carried her back to the room to rest.

Two days later, Zhao Che really married Gu Hengzhou and Shen Bai in front of hundreds of civil and military officials.

In the name of the Oriental Kite Spirit used for marriage, the dowry list of the Dongfang family and the Murong family is amazing, which shows that Nan Xiangguo attaches great importance to this marriage, but because of the long distance, only Murong Xuan sent Shen Bai to marry is a bit thin, and the Dongfang Kite Ling is very similar to the daughter of the Xiangfu, so he asked the Dongfang Kite Spirit to marry from the Xiangfu according to the specifications of the Xiangfu daughter.

Now several families who can afford to speak have been defeated by Zhao Che, and no one dares to have an opinion, and when they went down to the court, hundreds of officials congratulated Gu Hengzhou one after another.

Gu Hengzhou doesn't love these false gifts on weekdays, but this day he was patient, accepted these congratulations, and thanked them one by one.

As soon as the holy decree of marriage was given, Gu Hengzhou took Shen Bai from the palace to the Prime Minister in the afternoon of the same day.

Shen Ruxiu had already asked people to clean up Shuyun Garden, and he also heard that Shen Bai was sick, but he didn't expect Shen Bai to be sick like this, and when Gu Hengzhou carried Shen Bai into the courtyard, Shen Ruxiu withdrew and entered the house, and asked with concern: "Why has I been infected with the wind and cold for so long, but I haven't taken medicine according to what the imperial doctor said?" ”

Shen Bai didn't carry this pot, and hurriedly said: "I'm not a child anymore, how can I not take medicine well?" ”

Shen Ruxiu frowned, he didn't believe what Shen Bai said, Shen Bai couldn't stand him like this, and said lazily: "Okay, I'll be fine in a few days, don't you always look bitter and hateful, I don't know and think I'm going to die of illness." ”

"Bah, what nonsense!" Shen Ruxiu scolded angrily, if Gu Hengzhou wasn't here, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to help but give Shen Bai two blows.

Compared with the palace, it was obviously easier for Gu Hengzhou to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the guards of the Prime Minister's Mansion couldn't stop Gu Hengzhou, and they didn't stop him after getting Shen Ruxiu's orders in advance.

After the birthday banquet of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the Sun family slowly cheered up, after Shen Bai returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, she also came to see Shen Bai twice, and she had no hostility towards Shen Bai, and chatting with Shen Bai for a few words could be regarded as harmony.

The Prime Minister's Mansion was a lot more lively because of Shen Bai's arrival, and the palace was also more lively because of the presence of Si Ruoya.

Si Ruo Aya's personality is very cute, after Shen Bai left the palace, Zhao Mingyi and Zhao Mingxi became familiar with her, she spoke softly and glutinously, and people can also be cute and lovely, both of them like her very much, and take her to the palace to play if there is nothing to do.

Gu Hengzhou and Shen Bai's marriage was decided, the concubine talked to Zhao Che in private, and the Marquis of Lingyang took the initiative to withdraw from the queen selection, leaving only Shi Yin and Wei Qingyue to compete for the rear position, these two people's family backgrounds are comparable, and their appearance and talent are comparable, no matter who is the mother of the country, there is nothing to say, the concubine suggested that Zhao Che include both of them in the harem first, and then consider it for a period of time, and choose a queen from them.

Zhao Che didn't make a decision immediately at that time, and only asked the concubine to invite the two into the palace again.

The concubine readily agreed, but she didn't expect that the two of them would have an accident on the day they entered the palace.

Things happened quite suddenly, that day Zhao Mingyi and Zhao Mingxi took Si Ruoya to play in the Imperial Garden, Shi Yin and Wei Qingyue happened to pass by, several people stood together and talked for a while, Si Ruoya suddenly pushed Shi Yin into the flowers on the side.

Shi Yin screamed in fright, and the other three were also frightened, and then they watched Si Ruo Aya's monkey quickly climb onto a big tree in the imperial garden.

The Praetorian Guards on duty rushed to hear the news, and Si Ruoya stood on the tree and cried louder than Shi Yin, as if he was the one who was being bullied, and threatened him with death, not allowing anyone to approach.

The two sides were at a stalemate, and it wasn't until Zhao Che passed by that Si Ruoya was called down from the tree by Zhao Che with a cold face.

Zhao Che understood what had happened, asked Sun Yuehai to send Shi Yin home to recuperate first, and gave some things to appease, and then took Si Ruoya to the imperial study.

Entering the house, Zhao Che asked Si Ruoya to kneel, Si Ruoya was not as obedient as before, and said with a stiff neck: "Why don't you ask me who is at fault first?" ”

You've pushed people to the ground, are you still reasonable?

Zhao Che glared at Si Ruoya, who immediately hid behind the pillar and said loudly: "It was she who scolded me for having a sick brain and being a fool, so I gave her a lesson, you can't wronged a good person without distinguishing between right and wrong!" ”

Dare to scold him in front of the emperor, he doesn't distinguish between right and wrong, isn't his brain sick?

Zhao Che was about to be laughed at by Si Ruo Aya, and suppressed his temper and said, "So many people have seen you do it, where are you wronged?" ”

Si Ruo Aya said confidently: "She scolded me first." ”

Zhao Che had no experience in coaxing people, so he said in a cold tone and ordered in a deep voice: "Come here." ”

Si Ruoya refused, and after a while, he poked his head out from behind the pillar and bargained: "Don't beat me and scold me, if you have something to say, I'll come out." ”

Zhao Che pursed his lips and said nothing, threatening with his eyes, Si Ruo Aya retracted her head again, as if the pillar could provide her with some shelter.

Zhao Che was not in a hurry, walked to the table and sat down, and said faintly, "Do you think that pillar can protect you?" As soon as I give the order, the Praetorian Guards outside will immediately rush in and tie you up in front of me. ”

"You...... Don't you dare! ”

Si Ruoyan said with little confidence, Zhao Che raised his eyebrows, since he ascended the throne for three years, this is the first time that someone has spoken to him like this.

He is now the person with the highest status in the entire Zhaoling, what is there that he would not dare?

Zhao Che didn't speak, and after a while, Si Ruo Aya came out from behind the pillar and walked cautiously in front of Zhao Che.

At this time, Zhao Che ignored her, lowered his head and pretended to look at the unfinished play, Si Ruo Aya twisted his fingers, his cheeks puffed out angrily, and said sullenly: "You have changed." ”

Zhao Che flipped the action for a moment, lifted his eyes and looked at Si Ruo Aya, Si Ruo Aya's mouth was deflated, his eyes began to redden, and a mist appeared at the bottom of his eyes, and he said aggrievedly: "You didn't like this when you hugged me and kissed me before." ”

Zhao Che put down the fold, frowned and asked, "When did I hug you and kiss you?" ”

Si Ruoyan's brows were twisted into hemp rope, as if he had suffered great humiliation, and said hatefully: "Don't think I can't remember when I was young, but I remember it clearly." ”

Small?

Zhao Che recalled, Si Ruoya is fourteen this year, when she was born, he was already a teenager, at that time he studied and practiced martial arts in the Tai Academy all day long, where did he have the opportunity to meet her?

Zhao Che felt that Si Ruoya was talking nonsense, Si Ruoyan knew what he was thinking when he saw his expression, and cried and accused: "At that time, you always fought with my little uncle, and you also used candy to lure me, so that I only played with you and not with my little uncle, and now you turn your face and don't recognize people, do you have a conscience, woo woo." ”

After Si Ruoya finished speaking, she cried, Zhao Che's brows furrowed even more, he kept staring at Si Ruoya, and found that she was howling so badly, in fact, she didn't shed a single tear.

After howling for a while, Si Ruoya secretly raised his eyes to look at him, but he didn't expect to be caught by him, and his crying was stagnant.

After his ears cleared, Zhao Che looked at Si Ruoya fixedly, and asked, "Where did you hear about those things just now?" ”

Si Ruo Aya tried hard to brew tears, and said in a muffled voice, "I remember it myself." ”

Zhao Che pursed his lips and lost his voice.

He had never been to the Marquis Mansion of Lingyang, nor had he seen Si Ruoya, but he did rob someone with his uncle when he was a child, and that person was called Shen Bai.

At that time, the first queen was still there, Shen Bai was raised in the former queen's palace, Wei Ruzhao often went to the palace to play, Shen Bai followed them like a fart, he thought it was funny, so he always teased her.

After the death of the first queen, the palace people who served at the beginning were all disposed of by the queen mother, and only they remembered this.

For no reason, Shen Bai is unlikely to tell Si Ruoya about these things, so how did Si Ruoya know this?

Zhao Che felt that this matter was a bit mysterious, and after thinking for a moment, he asked Si Ruo Aya: "Aside from those just now, what do you remember?" ”

Si Ruoya's eyes flashed with emptiness, and he deliberately made a false statement, saying, "You don't remember what you did, why should I remember?" ”
