Chapter 185: Queen Yan

The Yan King's Palace in Jicheng is not big, as far as Mingyue is concerned, at most it is the size of the palace Congtai in the north of Handan. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

But even if the distance is short, there is still a limousine to send Mingyue over, sitting in a tall, gorgeous limousine with narrow window holes, Mingyue tries to find all the memories of his "sister" in her mind.

In my impression, she seems to be an innocent young girl, because she is the first daughter of King Zhao Huiwen and Empress Dowager Zhao, and the only eldest princess, she can be said to be extremely pampered, and she looks like Yuxue is cute, and she smiles when she sees someone, and she is not afraid of life, she is very cute, and she also takes care of his younger brother.

Mingyue has more memories, staying in the day of her and the ceremony, the day can be described as a grand occasion, the ladies in Handan City came to cheer, the female officials in the palace of Zhao respectfully waited around, and the Empress Yan changed the image of a girl, wearing a long-sleeved skirt and a coat of Zhai, and the Empress Dowager Zhao personally untied her long black hair and inserted a golden flute, which was in the shape of a phoenix's head, which seemed to indicate her future destination. After that, she smiled slightly, and under the harmony of silk and bamboo in the temple of the Zhao family, she wore new clothes and walked in a ladylike manner, with the beauty of giving birth to lotus step by step, which attracted everyone's admiration and praised her as "the son of the son, suitable for his family"......

Although it is not a personal memory, it is still vivid when I recall it, and it is seven years in a flash.

Thinking so, the limousine had already driven to the steps of the mill hall where the queen of Yan lived, and the wheels had not completely stopped rolling, and a group of palace maids and temple people who had heard the inquiry had already come out from inside, and were waiting respectfully on both sides.

Mingyue got out of the car, suddenly felt a chill, and tightened her fox fur, it is also interesting to say, even in the palace, the temple people are tall and strong, and there are a few tigers with bears, like the kind of temple people who are very feminine in Zhao Qi's court can not be seen, this may also be the characteristic of Yan Kingdom.

After walking into the mill hall where Yanhou lived, Mingyue found that this place was supposed to be spacious and airy, but because Yanhou was particularly cold after giving birth, she used layers of curtains and many screens to separate it, and there were charcoal-burning stoves everywhere, and the whole palace was warm and pleasant, and Mingyue even sweated a little because she wore a lot.

After following the palace maid around for a while, he was able to enter the innermost dormitory. The etiquette law of the Warring States period is not strict, and besides, as the younger brother of Empress Yan, he will not be shunned.

"But my brother is here?"

As soon as he entered the door, he heard a weak voice, and at a glance he saw a woman in palace clothes lying on the bed.

The eyebrows and eyes are exactly the same as in the memory, but after they have grown, they have become slightly thinner, the former baby fat is completely gone, the hair is pulled to the back, and the image is closer to the Empress Dowager Zhao when she was young.

She was lying on the couch a little weakly at the moment, with a few pillows embroidered with flying birds to cushion her back, and with the support of several palace maids, it was easy for her to barely maintain a half-sitting and half-lying position. Qi was covered with a vermilion silk quilt on her chest, and there was still steaming in the lacquer cup that had not been drunk cleanly on the side, probably medicinal soup, and a few plates of candied snacks were messily placed on the table that her right hand could touch, it seemed that her habit of eating sweets in her memory had not changed since she came to Yan Kingdom.

Mingyue responded: "Sister, my brother has come to visit you." ”

With a smile in her eyebrows, it could be seen that when she saw her relatives for the first time after many years of marriage, she was also sincerely happy and waved gently to him.

"Come over a little more, let my sister take a good look at you."

"Queen, this is not in accordance with the etiquette, the foreign minister and the man are only allowed to meet him, and he needs to be separated by a curtain...... Fu Mu next to him was about to dissuade him, but he was glared at by Queen Yan.

"It's not okay to see my brother in the future? I am the lord of Yan Palace, and it is up to me to decide on internal affairs, big and small, who dares to set my rules? ”

Although Empress Yan is a little weak, but she has presided over the harem for many years, and she also has a posture of not being angry and arrogant, that Fu Mu immediately closed her mouth obediently, Mingyue saw this scene in her eyes, and secretly thought: "Indeed, how can the daughter of Empress Dowager Zhao be weak and bullied?" ”

So he took a few more steps forward and knelt down three paces in front of her.

Empress Yan looked Mingyue up and down for a long time, and then sighed and said: "Sure enough, it's Mingyue, but I never thought it was so tall, and my sister can't touch your head now." ”

I still remember that when she was a child, she would often touch Chang Anjun's hair to show her love.

Next, Empress Yan kept asking questions to Mingyue with the energy that should not belong to a weak woman after a miscarriage, as if she had been holding back for a long time, but fortunately, she was talking about some common words of her sister and brother.

She greeted the physical condition of Empress Dowager Zhao and King Zhao, and talked about the beautiful scenery in Handan, are these scenery still there? also talked about the past when her father Zhao Huiwen was obsessed with swordsmanship and ignored her family, so angry that she also wore a sword and wore a sword, and also talked about which places in Handan City were the most interesting, when she passed by on the way from Zhao Wanggong to Congtai, her biggest idea was to jump down and take a walk in person.

Indeed, in Mingyue's memory, this sister is not a simple lady, she is a well-behaved and sensible eldest daughter in front of Empress Dowager Zhao, a coquettish princess in front of King Zhao Huiwen, and an eldest sister in front of these little sons.

When it came to being happy, Empress Yan couldn't help but giggle, laughing so much that tears flowed down, Mingyue had to give her the scarf, but found that Empress Yan had red eyes.

She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes that she didn't know whether they were happy or sad, pointed to the dim sum next to her and said, "Don't just say it, taste it, there is nothing else in this Yan country, but there is no shortage of honey, dates, and chestnuts." ”

Mingyue only agreed, and took some casually and put it in her mouth, maybe it wasn't really a sister and brother, maybe it was because after many years, although Empress Yan was very kind to him, as if the relationship between the two had never changed, but he still couldn't handle it calmly.

At this time, Empress Yan looked at the long crown on Mingyue's head, frowned, and said, "If I remember correctly, you are not yet seventeen years old, how can you become a crown and become an envoy?" Yandi is particularly cold and bitter in winter, and there is no shortage of cold and suffering along the way, right? The queen mother has always loved you the most, and she is relieved to let you come. ”

Mingyue replied: "According to the laws of Zhao State, the children of ordinary people will be Fu at the age of seventeen, and they will be able to contribute to the country by fighting the royal family, or by donating their lives generously, or by galloping on the battlefield. As a son, I naturally have to run around the world, for the country, and for the Zhao family. This time I went north, although I also trekked through the mountains and rivers, and I ran through the stars, but when I thought of arriving in Yandu, I could relieve the pain of the military and civilians of the two countries, and let my sister not have to be sandwiched between the two countries, so that she would not feel tired, this is my wish, and it is also the wish of the queen mother. ”

When Empress Yan heard this, she sighed faintly: "You are sensible, not like me, when I heard that my mother wanted me to marry into Yan Kingdom, I cried all the way." ”

Mingyue said sincerely: "Yes, when my sister was seventeen years old, for the peace of Yan Zhao, I married thousands of miles to the north, compared with my sister's suffering, what is my little hard work?" ”

It doesn't matter what she said, it seemed that some valve had been opened, and Empress Yan seemed to remember something and choked up. Her eyes were even redder, and Mingyue could see tears rolling in her eyes.

She turned her head away, and after forbearance for a while, she waved her hand violently at the few obstructive Fu Mu who had been listening to her brother beside her: "You wait to go out first." “

"Queen......" Fu Mu was timid, as if he had been ordered by someone to stay here, and did not dare to disobey it.

"Get out! Otherwise, you will be punished, and you will freeze to death just like those before you! Empress Yan's voice became stern.

At this time, several Fu Mu and palace maids couldn't stay stunned, got up in a hurry, and left the dormitory backwards, leaving only the two sisters and brothers, as well as a few henchmen and cronies of Empress Yan.

"Mingyue, come over a little more." Her voice was as gentle as ever.

Mingyue promised, moved forward slightly, and sat down in a position that Yan Hou could reach as soon as she stretched out her hand.

At this time, Empress Yan turned her head, and the tears that had just been wiped off couldn't stop flowing out......

While crying, she grabbed Mingyue's arm, and without the gentleness and grace of Fang Cai, she suddenly changed a deep tone, and said sharply: "Mingyue, Mingyue, why did you come!" Do you know how much my sister has suffered and endured in this Yan Palace in the past seven years!! ”
