The empress cried sadly, for many years, no one dared to say that about her, and the empress dared to tell her these things before, it was a reprimand and an admonition, and at that time the empress was still a princess, not an emperor.

Since she became the emperor, Kang Longji has never said this about her, of course, this is also related to her respect for Kang Longji, being able to listen to Kang Longji's words, and not conflict with Kang Longji.

The empress's cry made Zhou An a little nervous.

"Saint, saint ......" Zhou An spoke, but he didn't know what to say.

It's panicked!

"I, who am I sorry for? Woowoowoo...... Do you know how much pressure I have? Why do you say that? Yes? Woowoo...... I hit you a few times, I hit you with something a few times, and that's what you say? Woowoo...... You're saying I'm a tyrant, aren't you? I'm going to be a tyrant, right? Since I ascended the throne, I have endured humiliation and burden, Wu Xukuan has been forcing me, is it easy for me? Woowoo woo ......"

The empress is crying and crying, crying while talking.

"What did I do wrong? You don't understand me, I trust you so much, you don't understand either, woo woo...... I can't lose my temper, I'm also human! Woowoowoo...... What's wrong with me beating you? If you say that, I'll beat you, I'll beat you......"

The empress said, crying and looking for something to smash Zhou An.

The book she was reading earlier smashed into Zhou An.

The pillow fell on Zhou An's body after that.

The empress pulled up the blanket again, picked it up and whipped Zhou An.

"Holy Lord, are you alright?" The voice of the little eunuch suddenly came from outside the dormitory, and it was estimated that he asked because he heard something wrong in the dormitory.

"Roll !!" The empress turned her head and shouted.

There was silence outside.

The empress turned around and hit Zhou An with the blanket, and then pulled Zhou An again, the blanket covered Zhou An's head, and the empress went up to beat Zhou An.

"Woooooooooo......oo If I beat you, I will beat you! What if I beat you? Why do you say I?! Who gave you the guts? ”

In seventeen years, this is the first time that the empress has made such an outrageous move.

Since she was born, she has received an extremely strict court education, and this strictness has become even worse after Princess Yunjing was born, because the empress is not as favored as Princess Yunjing, her daily life is planned, when to read, when to eat, and even when to sleep, are all planned.

The happiest thing in the empress's childhood was the time to play with her sister, but that was also when she was very young, she could play with her sister, and she couldn't do it when she was a little older, she had to be knowledgeable, she had to be a talented girl, because she was a sister, and she had to have what a sister should be.

The empress has been very self-disciplined since she was a child, but the more self-disciplined she is, the more so.

She has not been presumptuous, so she can't be presumptuous, otherwise she will become bad and disobedient.

Many times, she will envy her sister Yunjing, because Princess Yunjing has been stubborn, disobedient, and naughty since she was a child, so she will not be allowed to change, but will be more indulgent.

It's hard to be a princess that everyone praises! It's very hard!

The empress survived!

She lived up to expectations, and even became the emperor!

But she didn't expect that it would be even more difficult to be an emperor! She didn't catch up with a good time, and when she ascended the throne, this huge empire was already crumbling, with internal and external troubles, natural and man-made disasters, rampant corruption, and traitorous officials in power.

When she became an emperor, not only was it not easier than when she was a princess, but it was more difficult!

During the period of peace and prosperity, after the new emperor ascended the throne, he did not even go to court for decades, he didn't care about anything, just enjoyment, but he also had peace and security, and he would be called "rule by inaction" and would be considered a Ming monarch!

But when it comes to the empress, it is so difficult!

In order to continue this empire, for the sake of this country, the empress is willing to do anything, she endures humiliation, grievances, step by step, Wu Xukuan said to cut the palace expenses, she agreed to cut expenses, she forbears, she bears the name of weakness and incompetence, just for more time, more opportunities, to protect this country!

Hope again and again, despair again and again, pressure like a mountain!

The empress thought that she would be understood, but the person she trusted and relied on the most now did not understand her.

An accident, an unbalanced state of mind, is denied, not only by the present, but also by the future.

The Empress was furious.

But more than that, it's grievances.

……

Zhou An was beaten.

In fact, it doesn't hurt, with his body defense, hit his head with a stone, the stone is broken, his head will not break the skin, not to mention that the empress is only a congenital realm, and she has not used internal force.

Although that small fist can hit an ordinary person half to death, if it falls on Zhou An, it belongs to the category of tickling.

However, it is not a problem to be beaten like this.

If the empress collapses because of this, then Zhou An's sin will be great.

Zhou An also didn't expect that the empress would react like this.

I can cry.

In fact, it is understandable, after all, she is still a girl, after all, she is only seventeen years old.

The empress beat Zhou An while crying, and she was already riding on Zhou An.

Zhou An tore off the blanket covering his head, and the empress pulled another pillow and smashed him, Zhou An snatched the pillow away again, and then sat up violently and grabbed the empress's shoulder.

"Holy Lord, calm down! Calm down! ”

"Woooooooooo......oo Why do you let me calm down, why should I listen to you, I won't be calm! I'm going to beat you, I'm going to beat you to death! The empress's little fist was still smashing Zhou An's chest.

"Holy!" Zhou An shouted, and then embraced the empress boldly and hugged the empress in his arms.

"Holy Lord, the slave is wrong, the slave understands you, it's the slave who is wrong, really...... Let you be wronged, you cry, just cry, cry, cry......"

Zhou An did not comfort her from the perspective of being an emperor at the moment, but from the perspective of a little girl to comfort her.

The empress struggled, smashed Zhou An's shoulder twice, and then lay on Zhou An's arms and cried.

I cried miserably!

"Hey!" Zhou An sighed and patted the empress's back.

The empress had a handful of snot and tears, all of which rubbed on Zhou An's clothes.

didn't hit Zhou An anymore, but hugged Zhou An's waist.

There has never been such a shoulder, let the empress lean on, and the empress has never cried so much in anyone's arms, this is the first time.

******

Outside the dormitory.

Kou Dong'er, dressed in a winter robe, walked into the courtyard with two little palace maids, one of whom was still holding a tray with two porcelain bowls with lids on it.

Walking outside the door of the dormitory, she turned around and took the small tray from the little palace maid and walked up the steps.

"Sister Dong'er......" The little eunuch waiting outside the door immediately walked a few steps quickly, approached Kou Dong'er, and whispered a few words in a low voice.

"Crying? Is it holy? After hearing this, Kou Dong'er turned her head and frowned and asked.

"Yes!"

"Have you ever asked?"

"Asked, what about the saint's temper...... Father-in-law Zhou came over before, and he was inside at this time. ”

"Zhou An?" Kou Dong'er was stunned.

What's going on?

From the time Kou Dong'er came to sleep with the empress today, she felt that the empress was a little strange today, her mood was very wrong, and she wanted to eat at night, so she still asked Kou Dong'er to boil the white fungus lotus seed soup in person, and said that she wanted two bowls.

Kou Dong'er went to boil soup for the empress, so she left for a while.

It was quiet in the dormitory at the moment, the candlelight was still on, but there was no sound.

Kou Dong'er thought about it, didn't ask again, and walked up the steps with a tray in one hand and a robe in the other.

When she got to the door, she gently pushed it a wide slit and went inside.
