The next morning, Li Zhi made an early pilgrimage.

It's been a long time since I got it.

Mei Niang stared at the dressing table in front of her, looking at the beautiful shadow of Yuru in the mirror who was meticulous and considerate of her makeup and hair, her eyebrows were indifferent, her lips were red, and her words were like beads:

"Where's Minghe?"

A delicate figure slowly approached, and in the mirror, a long salute:

"Niangniang calls Minghe."

Mei Niang didn't turn her head, only raised a few fingers. Seeing this, Yuru immediately bowed and retreated, and before leaving, he also dismissed all the servants of His Royal Highness.

In the main hall, only Mei Niang and Minghe were left, and they could only hear their breathing, one was steady and the other was slightly urgent.

Silence, silence.

The air seemed to have frozen in ice.

Akiwa could hear his own breathing.

As time passed, his breathing grew heavier and more rapid...... Finally, there was almost a gasp. Rapid wheezing. Sweat began to soak through his shirt.

Finally, a drop of sweat soaked through his skin and dripped into his eyes, and he couldn't help but blink.

A fiery stinging pain made him no longer able to bear the weight of a thousand catties of weight on his shoulders, and he knelt on the ground with a thud, and the dust in his hand was also broken by this sudden impact, and the wooden thorns immediately slashed his arm, and in an instant the blood flowed like a fire snake, winding around his wrist, shocking.

"...... Knowing and knowing what is wrong...... Keming and ...... Minghe has no regrets, and asks the mother to surrender! ”

He said softly in a trembling voice.

Mei Niang turned her head and wanted to speak, but her eyes fell on his arm, and finally stopped. He only sighed, got up and walked to his side in two steps, helped him up, took a white scarf yarn, and carefully tied the wound for him.

Minghe never dared to look up.

"Stay for a while and go to Imperial Physician Qin to take a good medicine, if necessary, I will go to your master, open the seal order of the palace, and go outside the palace to ask Brother Sun to take a look......

Also, when you're done, let's go get a new whisk! You're really too old. ”

Mei Niang bandaged it, looked at the broken dust on the ground, and said lightly:

"Not to mention that this boxwood is not strong, and in terms of rank, it should not be worthy of your identity as a young eunuch. It's okay to change the jade. Your masters use white jade phoenix tail silk (phoenix tail silk, that is, the long tail hair of peacock, pheasant or golden pheasant, in fact, it has little effect on cleaning up dust, it is more of a symbol of decoration and status - here the eldest grandson queen really gave it I dare not guarantee, just take it to write), that is the first queen mother's exceptional baby, we can't go beyond the courtesy......

But jade still makes it.

So saying, you...... There is also Qinghe, you two brothers, together took the opportunity to change the jade color luan silk (the same peacock, pheasant or golden pheasant's long tail hair, but much shorter than the phoenix tail silk) to whisk the dust. ”

Hearing this, Minghe raised his head sharply, looked at Mei Niang, and blinked:

"...... Don't blame Minghe? ”

"You are doing what you are doing. After all, Jiro is the lord of the world and the lord of the Tang Dynasty. Even this palace should not be deceived from him......"

Mei Niang lowered her eyes, and said again after a while:

"Not to mention the current state of affairs......

She shook her head again and sighed:

"I should have known. If you don't say it, Dean won't let it go easily...... Just ......"

Minghe was stunned: "Niangniang means that the master ......"

Mei Niang didn't want to say more, but said:

"It makes sense that he will have to let Jiro know about it...... It's just that this matter passes through his mouth and through your mouth, but I am afraid that it is two completely different results. ”

Minghe was stunned again and wanted to ask again, but Mei Niang shook her head and sighed:

"That's it, providence...... You go, pass the word for the palace, and ask Uncle Yuan to see you at Guanyin Temple tomorrow. This matter can be reported to Jiro - but he has to be convinced that Hongu doesn't know that you have to report it. Got it? ”

Minghe was stunned, and just wanted to say something, but after all, he was silent, nodded and left.

Watching him leave, Mei Niang turned her head, looked out the window and sighed softly.

Afternoon.

Luoyang Palace, inside the Zhenguan Palace.

Li Zhi listened to Minghe's reply, and was silent for a while.

After a long time, he asked Minghe how his elbow injury was? It didn't hurt to answer, so Li Zhi asked again:

"Didn't you tell Mei Niang about me?"

Minghe thought for a while, lowered his head and said:

“…… Niangniang didn't ask, but just asked to arrange to see Uncle Yuan......"

When Li Zhi heard this, he raised his eyebrows as if he was quite surprised, and then remained silent, only waving his hand to signal him to leave.

As soon as Ming He saluted and wanted to turn around and leave, Li Zhi stopped him again and said:

"Tomorrow's meeting will be arranged in the small Buddha hall in the back wing of the White Horse Temple! Your mother is pregnant, and it is bright and clean, and it is a very secluded place, but it is the most suitable for her. ”

"But Lord, there is a forbidden place in the inner temple...... The White Horse Temple is a thousand-year-old temple, and the first emperor was specially classified into the royal ban when he was there. Now it is also the inner palace palace, and Uncle Yuan is not allowed to trespass according to the system......"

Li Zhi was stunned when he heard this, rubbed his forehead twice, and looked at De'an.

Dean nodded knowingly and said:

"Lord, this kid didn't talk nonsense, but if the queen mother gave him a favor, Uncle Yuan might not be able to enter. After all, there is the Holy Spirit of the first queen mother, and as the eldest brother to worship, it is all in harmony with reason, etiquette and law. It's just that he has to annoy his old man, and he is entering the court. ”

"That's it! You go and tell your uncle, and you will say that he is dressed once. ”

"But Lord, the mother said it quietly...... It is...... In short, the mother said that she couldn't make a noise, and even the Lord ...... None of ...... Belch...... can't say ......" Minghe said that Mei Niang deliberately leaked to Li Zhi, but fortunately, he was clever and hurriedly changed the conversation, but it was too hard, and he almost bit his tongue and said nothing.

Li Zhi frowned again when he heard this:

"Really...... Dean! ”

Dean sighed, and nodded helplessly:

"The Lord is not in a hurry, but there is another way, but someone needs to stay in front of the wing room to guard the door...... And this person's identity can't be too low......"

……

Before noon the next day.

Just after a moment of the hour, outside the White Horse Temple in the western suburbs of Luoyang, there are countless Jin Wuwei beating horses and whips, galloping back and forth, fighting flags and shouting, and cleaning the streets.

There is no other reason -

Today's queen mother has already started from the Luoyang Palace at this time, boarded the treasure car, and went to the White Horse Temple, the purpose is naturally for the little prince in the womb, to this ancient temple that has lasted for thousands of years, the incense is endless, and the ancient temple Garan is blessed, begging for peace.

When the people of Luoyang heard this, they all hurriedly avoided it, but they were inevitably quite curious about this queen who had already been famous in the sea, and wanted to see what was going on.

So for a while, on the official road in front of the White Horse Temple from Luoyang Palace, people surrounded both sides of the Fengjia Royal Road, stretching their necks and looking at each other.

Halfway through the hour, the phoenix of the Tang Dynasty Empress Wu Zhao led the guard of honor in front of the guard, and appeared on the royal road.

The treasure covers the buildings, the umbrella curtains, the flags are fierce, and the axes are thick. A majestic and luxurious appearance.

The people knelt and bowed for a while, singing and saluting with their crossed hands, but their eyes still couldn't help but poke into the phoenix chariot that was surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside.

Seeing this, Yuru, who was riding a peach blossom horse and slowly serving on the side of Feng Yuan, subconsciously held down the long sword at his waist, but was patted on the shoulder by Li Dexian, who was also slowly serving with dark clouds under his crotch on one side, signaling not to be in a hurry.

"But the master ......"

Yuru grabbed the reins in her hand, and her bright eyes only looked at the still dashing face of the German Award, full of melancholy.

Li De Award smiled faintly:

"I've told you a long time ago...... Speaking of which, I have only taught you sisters a set of swordsmanship, but the name of the master cannot be deserved. Don't call it like that again, or I won't be able to be so close to your sisters. ”

Then, he paused, turned his head, ignored the light of jade's watery eyes, and only looked ahead:

"Such a battle...... The mother is not worried, but will be happy. So you really don't have to rush. ”

After thinking about it, he smiled indifferently:

"Well, the mother will be happy."

Then he ignored Yuru's surprised face, and then moved forward from his horse and followed Mei Niang Fengran.

……

The German Award does understand Mei Niang's thoughts.

Sitting in the wide and gorgeous phoenix chariot, Mei Niang's eyes were full of tranquility and indifference when she looked out of the curtain. This made Minghe, who was watching the little maid on the side and add fragrance to her red sleeves, very surprised, and couldn't help but look at her a few more times.

Mei Niang didn't look back, but she seemed to feel his gaze:

"Strange, huh? Hongu seems to like this kind of bluffing......"

Minghe didn't answer immediately, only after the little palace lady added incense and quit, he said honestly:

"Indeed, it's not like the mother's daily temperament."

"It's really not the nature of this palace. It's just ......" Mei Niang seemed to be a little tired, closed her eyes slightly, opened her eyes again, and said for a long time:

"It's just that this palace is now the wife of Jiro, the queen of the Tang Dynasty. The shelf that should be there, no matter how much you don't like it, you have to put it up. After all, the so-called 'queen' is the same respect as the emperor and the mother of the future new monarch.

For the sake of Jiro, for the sake of the children, this palace is no longer used to disliking it, what should be placed, it still has to be put out, and what should be used to it, it is still necessary to get used to it. And we need to go one step further and learn how to use all of this to bring more benefits to Jiro and the children. ”

Minghe's gaze that seemed to understand whether he understood or not, made Mei Niang, who turned her head to look at him, couldn't help but close her eyes and smile:

"Don't understand?"

She opened her eyes again, looked out the window, and said leisurely:

"As the queen, for the sake of Jiro's reputation and plan as an emperor, and for the future of the children, there are only two ways to choose: if you are not virtuous, you must be capable.

If you are virtuous, you will be more glorious than the emperor, such as the first queen.

If it is capable, it will show the emperor's talent and strategy, such as my Tang Dynasty founding Empress Taimu......"

Mei Niang smiled indifferently and said lightly:

"In short, you can't be a silent and nameless shadow, thinking that it is a good shadow to stand behind the emperor obediently and skillfully. The so-called emperor, the day also; The latter, the month also. The emperor and queen are the same bright, and the sun and the moon complement each other, which is the luck of a country and the virtue of eternity. ”

Minghe thought sideways for a long time, thinking that Mei Niang was almost going to sleep again, and then he suddenly muttered:

"So...... Everyone in the world blames that it is Niangniang who harmed the Wang family, but in fact, she wronged Niangniang! After all, she herself treats a good queen as a shadow, and she is gloomy...... So it's only right to lose.

That...... Doesn't Uncle Yuan understand this truth? ”

"What kind of character Uncle Yuan is, how could he not know it? If he really didn't know, why did he blindly avoid the Wang family's intention to seek alliances later? ”

"Then why does he still hold on to the Wang family so secretly?"

“…… Because he needed to use the matter of the Wang family to crucify the palace to the reputation of being tainted with morality. also because he knew that the Wang clan was not suitable for the queen, but the Taiyuan Wang clan and the clan were too strong at that time, and if they wanted to cut off their way of life in that situation, the only way to ......"

Mei Niang suddenly opened her eyes, and a cold glint flashed in her eyes:

"Kill it."

Minghe frowned - these words sounded simple, but after careful examination, it made him want to hurt his brain and couldn't get results, so he had to say:

"Kill...... Did Uncle Yuan also kill his mother? ”

Mei Niang suddenly turned her head and smiled faintly at him:

"Kill...... I'm afraid it's the opposite......"
