Every month on the fifth day, the emperor must go to the queen's Qiuxin Palace to spend the night, it is said that "five" is the number of heaven and earth, this day the emperor and queen of the world to set an example, otherwise it will disturb the operation of yin and yang in the universe, small will cause fire, heavy is the astrological disorder, that is the damnation.

Han Ruzi really wanted to ask, how much disaster would the emperor cause if he became a puppet? But he could only eat quietly, and according to the custom of the ancients, he knelt down and ate.

The queen knelt on the side seat, in the past, each dish was brought to the table in front of the emperor by the palace maid, but now there is one more procedure, the queen takes it in her hand, turns around slightly and then puts it down, in order to show respect, the emperor nods his thanks, wastes a lot of time, he is full without eating much, but the dishes are still put on one by one, and he can't help but say no.

The ceremony was finally over, and seeing the dishes that had barely been touched being taken away, Han Ruzi felt hungry again inexplicably, so he had to endure it, hoping that the night would pass quickly.

This simple wish is destined to be elusive.

Most of the eunuchs and palace maids left, but three people stayed, one was the eunuch Zuo Ji, the other was the palace maid Tong Qing'e, and the other was a female official about forty years old.

The emperor and the empress were invited into the bedroom and sat side by side on the bed, Zuo Ji and Tong Qing'e served Zuo Ji, and the female official stood opposite, looking at the two newlyweds with a smile after giving the salute.

Han Ruzi had a premonition that things were not good, and the imperial concubine did not seem to have fully convinced the queen mother, and he was forced to follow the way of husband and wife again.

Sure enough, as soon as the female official opened her mouth, she said a great truth about heaven and earth, yin and yang, Qiankun, etc., and finally boiled down to the gift of the couple, "Your Majesty and the queen have the same room and different beds, or the same bed but different pillows, against the etiquette of the husband and wife, ashamed of the ancestors and ancestors, and confusing the people of the Quartet, and even more disobedient to the queen mother......"

The more Han Ruzi listened, the more shocked she became, and she couldn't help but interrupt the female officer, "You know...... We didn't share a bed? ”

He also felt angry, thinking that someone was secretly spying on him, and looked at Tong Qing'e, who was standing beside the queen.

The female official smiled slightly, "A few days after the wedding, the bedding that Your Majesty and the Queen slept on was clean, so naturally they didn't share the same bed." ”

The more Han Ruzi listened, the more confused he became, but he finally knew that Tong Qing'e was not a spy, so he said solemnly: "I understand, I and the queen are still young, wait a few years." ”

The female official obviously came prepared, and easily refused to give in, and said with a smile: "If there is no queen, Your Majesty can wait a few more years, since there is a queen, you should abide by etiquette, and you should not let the queen wait and let the queen mother worry." Today is a good day, please Your Majesty and the queen round room, if there is something you don't understand, the official and the palace maid Tong Qing'e can answer on your behalf. ”

The more Han Ruzi listened, the more angry he became, as a puppet, he was already very obedient, rarely caused trouble, and helped the Queen Mother get through the difficulties, but this was far from enough, he was still forced to do things he didn't like, so he sank his face, "I have been unwell recently, and I have no intention of rounding up, so you can retreat." ”

The female official's smile did not change, "Even if Your Majesty does not think about the Great Chu River, you should also think about the queen's feelings." If Your Majesty is obsessed......"

"That's right, I'm just obsessed." Han Ruzi was forced to a dead end, there was no other way, just cheating, anyway, he had nothing to fear, "I just don't care about the operation of heaven and earth, yin and yin imbalance, the queen mother is worried or not, I don't care, you are here to say this seriously...... Don't you feel blushing about these things? ”

The female officer was stunned by what she said, but she didn't blush, but was very angry, "Your Majesty actually said such a thing, how can you be worthy of the Queen Mother?" His Majesty ordered this official to have no choice, so he had to use it strongly, Tong Qing'e, it's time for you to do it. ”

Han Ruzi thought that using force was fighting, and when he heard the female official's name Tong Qing'e, he couldn't help but be stunned, although this palace maid was a few years older than him, after all, she was a woman, and the female official really looked down on people, so she was furious in her heart, and stood up quickly, and was about to speak, when she was surprised to find that the queen who was sitting side by side also stood up one step ahead of him.

The queen's face was pale, and her voice trembled because of excitement, "The queen mother on the left, the queen mother on the right, I visit the queen mother every day, why haven't I heard the queen mother say such things in person?" You said this is what the Queen Mother meant, okay, let's go to the Queen Mother and ask clearly in person, if the Queen Mother says yes, I will show you in public and the emperor, if the Queen Mother says no, what should you be guilty of? ”

The female official's expression changed drastically, and she muttered: "How can you ask the Queen Mother about this kind of thing?" ”

The queen was even more angry, "Do you also know that this kind of thing can't be asked or said? How dare you speak disrespectfully in front of Your Majesty? Although I am young and have not read many sage books, I also know that the palace is the most well-behaved place in the world. What about the living order? Why not there? Let him write down your words, and let future generations see how arrogant the servants in the Great Chu Palace are! ”

The female officer's expression became frightened, and she knelt down, and as soon as she knelt, Tong Qing'e also knelt down, and the two were speechless, and they all looked at Zuo Ji.

Zuo Ji's face also changed slightly, and he smiled reluctantly: "The queen is serious, there are queen mother and majesty in the palace, who dares to be arrogant?" It's all because she can't speak......"

"She can't speak, you say, since Zuo Gong is the queen mother's attendant, he should know the queen mother's mind best, you say." Although the queen is a little girl, she is a little domineering at this time.

Zuo Ji opened his mouth, turned to the female official, and said angrily: "Bastard, let you come to persuade Your Majesty, who let you say these rude words?" Don't ask Your Majesty and the Empress for their guilt yet! ”

The female officer had a hard time arguing, so she had to keep kowtowing.

Han Ruzi was stunned for a while before he reacted, waved his hand and said, "I don't care, you can retreat." ”

If the palace was pardoned, she retreated to the door on her knees, got up and ran.

Zuo Ji was embarrassed, and said as he retreated, "Your Majesty rests." ”

Retreating to the door, Zuo Ji was unwilling, and said to the queen: "The Cui family teaches a good queen." ”

"Didn't the Queen Mother also teach a good minion?" The queen said coldly.

Zuo Ji heaved, turned around and withdrew, the Cui family's power is still very large, even the queen mother has to give up a few points, he can't afford to provoke it for the time being, and he is also confused for a while, just thinking about how to control the emperor, ignoring the young queen.

There was still one Tong Qing'e left in the room, she was supposed to serve the emperor and empress to rest, but now she was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and didn't dare to move.

"You step down, I don't need you to serve tonight." Han Ruzi did not blame Tong Qing'e, as a palace maid, she was also involuntarily.

Tong Qing'e responded, also kneeling back, and then ran out of the room in a hurry and closed the door.

Han Ruzi turned his head to look at the queen and found that this little girl was completely different from her initial impression, she was smart and resolute, and she knew more than him, he was just angry, but the queen had already thought of confronting the queen mother.

The queen's expression returned to normal, childish, and a little shy, revealing a helpless smile: "They are really too much, I didn't expect the people in the palace to be like this." ”

"How did you guess that Zuo Ji was acting behind the Queen Mother's back?" What Han Ruzi admires the most is this.

"Actually, I didn't guess." The queen smiled again, "But I think that even if this matter was really arranged by the Queen Mother, she would not admit it, she would not mention it in front of us, and she would not want it to be recorded." ”

Han Ruzi is very smart, but some things can't be solved by being smart alone, you have to be familiar with the situation and understand the details to see those hidden flaws, "Some things can't be done, Zuo Ji They are slaves, they can be shameless, the queen mother is the master, and they must be polite." ”

Immediately afterwards, Han Ruzi understood another thing, "It is only useful if you threaten to see the Queen Mother, you are a member of the Cui family, you have a care outside the palace, and things can make a big fuss, if I go, the Queen Mother will let people beat me, and people outside will not know about it at all." ”

Han Ruzi sat down, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he couldn't wait any longer, the queen was safe for the time being, he was still in danger, Zuo Ji obviously wanted to make meritorious contributions to please the queen mother, and sooner or later he would be forced to do the way of husband and wife.

He looked up and found the queen still standing, looking more melancholy than he had been preoccupied.

"What's wrong with you?" Han Ruzi asked in surprise.

"Nothing." Having said that, the empress suddenly knelt down, put one arm on the bed, looked up at the emperor, and asked, "Your Majesty, is it because I am the daughter of the Cui family, so I will ...... will ...... Sleeping alone? ”

"You think too much, it's actually because ......" Han Ruzi didn't want to mention the King of the East China Sea right now, and sighed, "Actually, it's to protect myself, I heard that the Queen Mother is in a hurry to have the prince, and as soon as the prince is born, I will be worthless." Not only do I have to hide from you, but I also have to hide from the palace maids, alas-"

Han Ruzi sighed.

The queen turned into a smile, although she was a year younger than the emperor, she knew a little more, and before leaving home, she also heard the elder women say some necessary things, "Other emperors are called faint monarchs because there are too many concubines in the harem, and Your Majesty actually has too many of them, so he can be called the king of the brightest." ”

Han Ruzi also showed a wry smile, he didn't even feel that he was really the emperor, where did the "Ming Jun" come from? "Rest, you should be tired too."

Han Ruzi got up and was about to walk to the chair at the other end, and the queen said softly: "Your Majesty should sleep in bed." ”

"I told you, it's dangerous!"

"The bed is big enough, I sleep on one side, Your Majesty sleeps on the other, as long as we don't touch, it'll be fine."

"Is it okay if you don't touch? Isn't it true that sharing a bed will lead to a baby? Han Ruzi was not sure.

The queen lowered her head and laughed twice, and then said, "Let's share the same bed, but if we don't share the same pillow, Your Majesty can rest assured." ”

Han Ruzi heard the ridicule in the queen's words, his face was slightly red, he could quickly detect the crisis in a strange environment, but he didn't even have the most basic understanding of the relationship between men and women, he only remembered that the husband and wife in the story had a child after sharing the same bed.

"Are you really okay?"

The Empress nodded affirmatively.

"Okay." Han Ruzi also doesn't like to sleep on the couch.

The two turned around almost at the same time, and on a rare occasion they took off their coats by themselves, and the queen went to bed first, and after a while said, "I'm done." ”

Han Ruzi first went to blow out the candles, then went to bed in the dark, lay on the side, and lay silently for a while, thinking that the queen knew more, so he asked in a low voice: "Why are the bedding clean, and they know that we are not in the same bed?" ”

"I ...... too Don't understand. ”

There was a hint of hesitation in the queen's voice, Han Ruzi believed that she knew and didn't want to say it, that might be something that was not suitable for direct explanation, he didn't ask anymore, and began to think about how to deal with Zuo Ji.

This means that he has no time to wait for his mother's reply, and it also means that he can only choose to trust the imperial concubine.
