Chapter Seventy-Five: The Queen's Grace

……

"Xu Hong, you shouldn't be looking for a random beggar on the side of the road to fool me, right?" Zhao Zhe asked with a smile.

Xu Hong hurriedly knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen doesn't dare, this, this is indeed Xu Linglong, the daughter of Weichen's family." ”

Thinking about it, he didn't have the courage to find someone to fool him. Zhao Zhe rubbed his temples and calmed himself. staring at that "Linglong" closely, I found that her eyes were full of water and brilliance. It's just that the clothes on my body are really shabby. And the stains on her face, uh, what was she doing before she came?

"Huh." Thinking that this should indeed be Xu Linglong, Zhao Zhe's attitude was much better: "Linglong, you won't be tossing the red-clothed cannon again before you come, right?" How did you get so dirty? ”

"The cannon?" Xu Linglong frowned, as if she was thinking about something. After a pause, he said "oh" and said, "So you're talking about that?" It was something I only played with when I was a kid, and I don't touch it anymore. ”

"Linglong, don't be rude." Xu Hong reprimanded with some horror: "How did you teach you before?" Be respectful to the emperor. Then he sincerely pleaded guilty to Zhao Zhe and said: "Your Majesty, it's all because Weichen has no way to teach her daughter." Linglong didn't know how to interact with people since she was a child, and asked the emperor not to blame her. Linglong, and he didn't quickly ask the emperor for guilt. ”

The red-clothed cannon was still something that he played with when he was a child, but it made Zhao Zhe a little interested again. Obviously, she was a little more kind again, and said with a smile: "Xu Aiqing, it's just that, it's too late for me to be happy, how can I blame her?" Come. ”

"The slave is here." Xiaoduozi Xiaohuzi, all of them trotted in front of Zhao Zhe and knelt down.

"You two are still stunned what to do, quickly take Miss Linglong to the shower and change clothes." Zhao Zhe scolded slightly.

"The slave obeys." The two little eunuchs hurriedly ran to Linglong and said with a sneer: "Miss Linglong and the slaves and maids should go." ”

"Take a bath?" Xu Linglong was slightly stunned, and wanted to agree, but when she saw it, it was two eunuchs who took her to take a bath. Hurriedly shook his head like a rattle: "No, no, Daddy often says that men and women don't kiss." You two are men, and I can't go with you. ”

Zhao Zhe was stunned for a moment, but immediately laughed. Xiao Duozi and them were also a little embarrassed and said: "Back to Miss Linglong, the slaves and maids are eunuchs, not men." ”

Xu Linglong thought for a while, but still shook her head and resisted: "No, I still don't want to go." ”

Suddenly, the eunuch who stayed outside the study shouted: "The queen has arrived~"

Within a few breaths, the graceful and luxurious queen led the two maids into the walk. Xu Hong knew the rules, and hurriedly pulled a group of stunned subordinates and daughters, and bowed to the queen together: "Minister, Xu Hong." I've seen the queen's mother, the mother is a thousand years old, a thousand years old. ”

"Lord Xu, please get up." The queen was dignified and generous, and she helped Xu Hong from afar. Then he smiled lightly at the others: "All the Qing family, let's all be even." ”

After seeing them get up, the queen approached Zhao Zhe's side and saluted: "The concubine has seen the emperor." And her maid bowed to the ground and saluted.

The ancients were Liduo. Don't say that this is the relationship between the emperor and the empress, even in some ordinary big families, wives have to salute when they see their husbands. However, Zhao Zhe doesn't resist this kind of rule very much, and he likes this kind of tone, after all, it can also reflect the majesty of her husband. This must have been placed in his original era, and this ancient tradition has long been lost somewhere.

To say that among all the people I have known since the crossing, Zhao Zhe's feelings for the queen are the deepest. And when this emperor is called, it is not short. The deeper you get along with the queen, the closer you get to her heart. This is his wife, a woman who will be with him for the rest of his life.

For this wife, Zhao Zhe is also very satisfied. If only he could find such a beautiful woman in the original era, gentle and virtuous, and considerate to himself to the extreme. I'm afraid it will make those fox friends and dog friends envious to vomit blood.

"Qing'er doesn't need to be polite to me." Zhao Zhe got up and helped her up.

"The emperor said that the state affairs are exhausted today, and the concubines have boiled some abalone porridge, so the emperor will eat some to cushion his stomach first." The queen took a delicate wooden basket from the maid's hand, and took out a bowl of porridge that was still a little hot. The movements were light and gentle, and he first helped Zhao Zhe hold a bowl and personally served it to him. He took out a few small bowls and said to Xu Hong: "Lord Xu and all the adults are also tired of the people of the world, so let's eat a bowl." ”

Xu Hong bowed down with some excitement and took it: "Minister, thank you for the queen's reward." But he secretly glanced at his own daughter with a face full of stains and coarse cloth and dirty clothes, and sighed in his heart, why is she also an adopted daughter. The old Su family has raised a virtuous and moving, motherly queen of the world. And his own home, but it is ...... Alas, I shook my head in my heart.

And the officials who came with him who were not welcomed in the Ministry of Industry saw the emperor and the queen for the first time in their lives. I was already a little nervous. However, the queen's gentle and virtuous lady, who can be called the model of women in the world, has a beautiful demeanor and a graceful and luxurious temperament. For a while, with his head down, he was a little at a loss.

Even that Linglong, when the queen didn't tell who she was, she personally served her a bowl. Because she knew that no matter who they were, her husband would be of use if he could recruit them to the imperial study. It is also her duty as a wife to help her husband win people's hearts, show her most perfect side in front of his friends and subordinates, and earn him more face.

"Sister Queen, you are so beautiful." Linglong also looked at the queen a little stupidly, and said enviously: "Also, sister, your clothes and hairpins are so beautiful." ”

The queen was stunned, only when this person was bold and dared to tease herself. was waiting for Feng Yan to be cold and angry and reprimanded. But Zhao Zhe laughed out loud when he heard it: "Qing'er, don't worry, this is Xu Linglong, the daughter of Lord Xu's family." Presumably, Qing'er, you've heard of her too, right? ”

"Linglong?" The queen's face slowed down at this time, and she looked at her carefully, a little incredulous. Although she doesn't like the elite class very much, some of the old and disrespectful elders will expel a few outstanding girls in the younger generations into three beautiful women and so on. The reason why she knew that it was the secret of the elders was that since she was ten years old, she had hardly seen outsiders in the boudoir, especially not seeing any young men. It was only when some elders came to visit her home that she would come out to visit her at her father's behest. But it is precisely because of this that she will know that there is a girl named Xu Linglong in the family of Master Xu, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry.

Thinking of this, the queen couldn't help but smile lightly: "How could Sister Linglong make it like this?" Then he saluted Zhao Zhe and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine will take Linglong's sister to bathe and change her clothes first." Otherwise, it's too unorthodox. ”
